A/N: 'Sup, my Super Saiyanwiches! (And I apologize for copying off Rhymestyle, by the way) I'm back, and guess what? In chapter 2 of this episode, I reveal a critical piece of Yurei's history in this saga. Not only that, my secret character appears in the ending, too. For those of you who want to know when Trunks will turn Super Saiyan Blue or even Super Saiyan Sapphire (which I call a name suggested from maryomafyotu406 known as SSJ Azure), you'll just have to wait and see, but you can leave suggestions to help me patch it through this saga. Oh, and before I forget, I do not own any characters of this saga, except for Yurei, nor do I own any of the music that plays in the saga. Oh, and one last thing for now. I saw the latest episode of the Universe Survival Saga of "Dragon Ball Super" two days ago. this aura from Jiren was incredibly stupendous! If any of you are in favor of Future Trunks cutting Zamasu in half before Yurei, Android 21, or both "Hakai" him, say "Hakai" (Get it? It's "aye" in "Hakai", which is the word Beerus uttered to destroy Zamasu, if we all remember correctly). Don't worry, though. If any of you have any suggestions for the enxt chapter of this saga, as well as the 21st and last chapter, please state them in your reviews. A user by the name of maryomafyotu406 seems to get the program. Anyhoo, enjoy this episode.

"Light vs. Dark!; A Closed-Off Road to the Future"

Chapter 1

Future Trunks explained further as he had a flashback of Goku Black as he smirked evilly, scaring everyone around. However, the real scare was when Black had prepared and

launched a massive Black Kamehameha and devastated the entire city in seconds.

Narrator: "Previously on 'Dragon Ball Super', Trunks, Yurei, and Android 21 told of a shocking new calamity in their alternate future. An enemy, clad in

black and looking just like Goku, has launched a cruel attack against all of mankind, plunging the world into darkness once again.

Then, Goku and Vegeta both agreed to go to the future and fight Black.

"Yeah, don't worry, Trunks. We've got this. We'll go with you to the future!", Goku stated.

"Sure, but the job on defeating Kakarot will be mine, are we clear?", Vegeta stated.

Then, Yurei stated his own plan as he held up his finger bearing the blue Time Ring.

"I'll be gathering more allies here from my end and bring them with you guys. With this Time Ring, this'll be a cinch."

Beerus and Whis "Hmm'd" upon noticing a blue Time Ring in Yurei's finger.

Bulma raised her fist into the air in excitement.

"It's time to go back to the future and defeat Black once and for all!"

"Yeah. Count me in!", Yurei said as he clenched his hand into a fist, smiling.

Then, suddenly, a dark purple portal in the shape of a cat's eye opened up and emitted a lightning bolt from it, striking the ground. Then, a silhouette of Goku Black emerged

before the lightning went out, revealing that Goku Black had already arrived, curious as to what their destination is.

Narrator: "But just as Goku and the others were making plans to help, a figure emerged through a rip in the sky.

Then, Black turned to notice Goku along with them and chuckled.

"Well, you must be Goku."

Goku took a couple of steps forward before responding back to him.

"So you're Goku Black!"

Narrator: "An age-old battle of good vs. evil, now!"

Goku Black was puzzling as the clouds began to get stormier with the heavy rain beginning to fall all over Capsule Corp, let alone the entire city, while the portal emitted

some sparks as it began to take the shape of a perfect circle. Black then took a look at his Time Ring, ignoring the rain pelting his face.

"That's bizzare. I've been pulled through time.", Black guessed.

Pilaf, Shou, and Mai gasped while Trunks stared at Black, his mouth agape with Future Bulma and Future Mai with Bulma.

"Wow. They do look alike." Bulma said.

"I know, right?", Future Bulma concurred.

"Yeah, but Black is a very cruel person at heart.", Future Mai objected slightly.

Vegeta just glared at Black while Krillin and Piccolo had their own thoughts.

"I'm stumped; any theories?", Krillin asked.

"No.", Piccolo answered before turning to both Bulma's.

"What do you know about him?", Piccolo asked.

Future Bulma can answer that.

"His name is Goku Black and he would've killed me if that red-haired Saiyan hadn't saved me."

"Yeah. He even saved me, too.", Future Mai concurred.

Piccolo tensed a bit before he turned back to Goku Black and glared at him.

"You don't say.", Piccolo said.

Future Trunks tensed in anger as 21 grew curious while Yurei figured it out rather quickly.

"Wait. How did Black follow us from all the way here?", 21 asked.

"I think it may have something to do with that ring on his right hand, 21."

"Huh?", puzzled 21.

Then, 21 looked up and noticed a silver ring in his finger, seeing Yurei's point.

"Oh. I think you're right.", 21 concurred.

Then, Beerus and Whis had a similar, yet different idea.

"Look closely, my lord. The index visitor of our new visitor's right hand.", Whis suggested.

"Hmm?", puzzled Beerus.

Frankly, that did not take him very long to notice it.

"Whis, is that..?", Beerus asked.

"It is.", Whis answered. "Now, try looking at another guest, my lord. The one wearing the same Gi Goku wore when he fought Frieza again has a slightly different ring on it."

As soon as Beerus noticed it, his eyes widen with somewhat surprise.

"What the-? If he has it, doesn't that mean-?", Beerus puzzled.

"Yes, it does.", Whis answered. "It would appear that he is the chosen one.

Meanwhile, amidst the dark storm, Goku Black turned around slightly and the noticed Vegeta and then Beerus.

"Vegeta. And the destroyer, Beerus.", Black thought.

Whis can at least make a guess on Black and Yurei.

"It would seem something ominous and rather mystifying has taken place between the two of them.", Whis surmised.

"Yes, I'm dying to know their stories.", Beerus concurred.

Future Trunks grew angrily shocked and shouted at Black,

"What is this?! How did you get here?!"

Black smirked as he answered his question.

"I don't know what caused this warping of spacetime that brought me here, but that warping has brought me here, too. Or perhaps I'm here, because you and your family's

souls cried out to me. Begging me to help set them free."

Future Bulma, Future Mai, and Android 21 gasped in unison while Future Trunks grew angry from hearing this.

"Come try!", exclaimed Future Trunks.

Then, Yurei interrupted before Future Trunks could step in to fight.

"I don't think so, Black!", Yurei shouted. "From here on out, this fight could go two ways, with your soul getting ripped out by my hands, not theirs with yours!"

Black only smirked menacingly from hearing this.

"There it is. That spark of defiance in your eyes that pleases me so.", Goku Black grinned.

Yurei was puzzled from Black's response.

"And how is that pleasing to you, exactly?", Yurei asked.

"Simple. From any other mortal, this is downright disrespectful to a god, but from you, that gets me so pumped up! All compliments aside, I'm happy to see you again, Yurei,

because this is where we pick up where we left off on our fight. I assume you don't plan on running away this time?"

Yurei tensed in anger from hearing that, but then kept his composure and stood up straight.

End Super Music: "Solving the Mysterious Puzzle"

"No, Black. Not this time.", Yurei said.

"Hm.", Black said as he continued to smile.

Then, Yurei went up into the air adjacent to Black's direction.

"This time, I plan on fighting you to the end with everything I've got!"

The moment he made this statement, Yurei opened his eyes, revealed to be glowing blue, catching Black somewhat off-guard.

"Huh?", puzzled Black.

Play Super Music: "Limit Break X Survivor (Instrumental Type c)"

Then, Yurei quickly turned Super Saiyan Blue and slowly began raising his voice as he bellowed and his hair started slowly flashing brightly and his aura began getting more

intense as streaks from the aura grew taller. A few moments after, Yurei's eyes glowed much brighter before Yurei yelled out loudly as his aura turned bright blue and gave

out bigger streaks all before his aura exploded, creating a blinding bright blue light that was just as bright as Frieza's first Golden Transformation, except instead of yellow, it

was blue, all the while lightning was striking the aura, adding its tremendous power to the mix. Everyone was surprised by the new transformation currently taking place,

well, all except Beerus and Whis, who were just surprised as they were when Black just arrived in the present timeline. Then, when the light dimmed down, Black was the

first to be shocked as he widened his eyes upon noticing that Yurei had broken through his limits and transcended Super Saiyan Blue, giving him a more intense blue aura

with no yellow tint to be shown like it was in Super Saiyan Blue, a bit of a darker shade of blue for his hair and his eyes, which now had black pupils while his irises are now

silver-blue, and the sparkles in the aura are now two times bigger, never mind three or four times bigger, and are now blue, four-pointed stars as rain began to fall heavily

amidst the mighty lightning bolts. Goku and Vegeta were the first to express their reactions before Future Trunks, Future Mai, Android 21, both Bulma's from the present and

future, Krillin, and Piccolo expressed theirs.

"Whaaaa?!", Goku exclaimed.

"Wh-What is that?!", Vegeta shouted in disbelief.

"What is that, Trunks?!", Future Mai asked.

"I don't know, Mai. I can't sense his energy, but the pressure's off the charts!", Future Trunks answered.

"You said a mouthful!", Android 21 concurred as Android 21 was practically bracing herself from the tremendous gusts of wind emitting from Yurei's latest transformation and

pushing against her.

"What kind of Super Saiyan is he?", asked Future Bulma.

"I don't know, but he is definitely stronger than Super Saiyan Blue.", Bulma surmised.

"What?! You mean to tell me that this guy just went way beyond Super Saiyan Blue?!", exclaimed Krillin.

"But, how is that even possible?", Piccolo asked.

Then, Yurei, in his new form, spoke to Black.

"Scared, Black? You should be. On the last fight we had in the future, the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan form was just an early stage, a precursor to this form you see

before you. This current state goes way beyond Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, so I've decided to give this one a fitting name: Super Saiyan Sapphire!"

Black was puzzled with the name.

"Super Saiyan... Sapphire?!", Black asked.

"You've terrorized the future long enough, Black, because with or without help, your end has just come!", Yurei threatened.

Little did he know that Piccolo was listening at the time as he widened his eyes.

"So, that's what it was. Somehow, he's managed to break through all his limits at a certain point during the last fight. But, still, if Goku's doppelganger is responsible for

messing up Trunks' future, something has to be done about him.", Piccolo thought.

Black only smirked as lightning struck 50 feet behind him.

"That form is impressive, Yurei, I'll give you that, but do you honestly believe that empty threats like that will scare me?" Black asked.

Yurei got in his usual battle stance before he spoke.

"Who said I'm trying to scare you?"

It was only after Black entered a stance of his own and growled that Krillin noticed Piccolo heading off into the air to join Yurei.

"Huh? Hey, Piccolo! What are you doing?!", shouted Krillin

"Something I should've done a long time ago!", responded Piccolo.

Goku only shouted in response back to Piccolo.

"Come on, Piccolo! That's not fair!"

Android 21 only responded in annoyance to Goku's complaint.

"Uh, do you really think that's important right now?"

Goku got taken aback for a bit but then responded.

"No, but still, I wanted to fight him."

Piccolo shouted back to Goku as he moved closer to Yurei on air.

"Well, tough brownies!"

Vegeta only scoffed in response to Goku's complaint to Piccolo.

"Sometimes, you act just like a child, Kakarot.", Vegeta said to himself.

Meanwhile, Piccolo joined up with Yurei, puzzling him.

"Huh?", Yurei asked.

"What?," Black puzzled.

Yurei wanted to know what Piccolo is doing here.

"Why are you here, Piccolo?", asked Yurei.

"Even if he really isn't Goku, let's just say I have an old score to settle. Also, how do you know my name?"

Yurei got taken aback for a bit but then quickly answered.

"Oh. Trunks told me about you and your friends. You can fight him with me if you like, but be careful. With that much strength he has, there's no telling how much stronger

he'll get from this fight."

Piccolo only smirked as he got into his own stance.

"Thanks for the warning, but I'll handle him just fine.", Piccolo grinned.

End Super Music: "Limit Break X Survivor (Instrumental Type C)"

Then, Piccolo turned to Black and gave an angry look

.

"You have some nerve showing up here after what you did to Trunks' future, Black!"

Goku Black only responded gravely to Piccolo as lightning bolts continued to strike the earth in the heavy rain.

"Do you really want to perish that badly, Namekian?"

Piccolo responded back to Black.

"You're the one with a death wish. I honestly can't even begin to imagine who or what you actually are. The Bulma from Trunks' Future told me you were the one responsible

for causing that much damage in the future. That sound about right?"

Black only gave a grin as Future Trunks, Future Mai, Bulma, Future Bulma, Android 21, Goku, Vegeta, Beerus, and Whis watched.

"Hmph. That's where we differ, Piccolo. What you call damage, I call corrections, like incinerating humanity completely for example."

Piccolo was taken aback by Black's response.

"What the heck does that even mean?!", exclaimed Piccolo.

"The answer to that is not something you need to know.", responded Black.

At that moment, Black prepared Black Ki Blast and quickly shot it at Piccolo before Yurei sensed the danger quickly and cut the Blast in half clean before the two halves of the

black Ki Blast disintegrated into tiny blue sparkles, stunning Black.

"So, that's what this power is capable of, Yurei?", Black asked.

Yurei smirked as the aura dissipated, but he still maintained the Super Saiyan Sapphire form.

"And that's just the tip of the iceberg, Black. But, I don't want any risk of you copying me, so I'll let Piccolo fight for now."

Both Piccolo and Black grew puzzled altogether.

"What?", they asked in unison.

"But, don't think I'm chickening out now, Black, 'cause I'll hit you harder when you least expect it.", Yurei threatened.

Black grew puzzled for a bit, bit then smirked as he turned back to Piccolo.

"Very well, then. I'll entertain myself with him for a while, assuming he survives for much longer."

Piccolo tensed from Black's statement before he gave a suggestion.

"To think that it's like me versus Goku all over again, but this time with opposite sides."

Little did he know that Beerus overheard that with his ears.

"Uh?", Beerus puzzled.

"Fine, but if we're going to do this, we need to take this fight elsewhere."

"What?", Black asked.

"Don't worry, we won't be too far. In fact it's actually right behind us.", Piccolo assured as he glanced back at the desert with naught but rocks amidst the heavy rainstorm

with occasional lightning and thunder.

Then, Black's menacing smirk returned.

"Oh, I see. That's actually a nice spot for your grave, Namekian."

"I think you'd do well not to underestimate me, Black. You'll see what I'm made of soon enough.", Piccolo retorted with a smirk.

Then, Piccolo dashed off toward the Rocky Mountains with Black, who responded, following.

"Sure I will.", Black mocked.

Then, Krillin, Future Trunks, Vegeta, Goku, and Android 21 followed Yurei, Piccolo, and Black to the landscape as Beerus found himself watching quite an interesting fight.

"Hmm. So not only are we about to watch another Saiyan unleash his full power beyond that of Super Saiyan Blue, but we're also about to watch a rematch with Piccolo vs.

Goku? And I thought fish sausage was a treat."


Meanwhile, Piccolo, Black, and their spectators arrived at the designated location before Piccolo had a realization about him.

Play Unfair: the Answer Music: "Bait in a Trap"

"Judging by your energy, I can already guess that you're much stronger than you say you are."

Black knew that Piccolo was correct.

"Astute. What's even more is seeing and rating my power.", Black complimented.

Piccolo smirked and chuckled for a bit before removing his turban hat and cape.

"if we're gonna start fighting seriously, I might as well do this.", said Piccolo.

Then, he started bellowing while also powering up to his full power with his white aura emerging.

"Getting serious, are we?", Black joked.

"Dead serious.", Piccolo responded.

Then, he charged toward Black, who charged toward him before they clashed punches with each other for at least one second before Black kicked Piccolo's leg to knock him

off-balance, giving Black his cue to go straight for his face only for Piccolo to grab it with his fist in reaction, catching him by surprise. Then, Piccolo yelled out as he swung

Black a few times before he tossed him to the ground and then, a moment after, began firing his Hellzone Grenade, setting up an array of Ki Blasts in midair as Black grunted

a bit as he descended before he landed firmly on the ground with but a strike of lightning in the background. Then, just as Black looked up, he saw an array of Ki Blasts

fixated on him before Piccolo clapped his hands together, causing the Ki Blasts to hone in on Black one by one and hit him, causing smoke to emerge from the blasts with

Goku, Vegeta, Yurei, Android 21, Future Trunks, and Krillin watching while Pilaf, Shou, Mai, Future Mai, Beerus, Whis, Trunks, Bulma, and Future Bulma watching through

Whis' staff in Capsule Corp in the meanwhile. However, a few moments after, Black's aura emerged for a bit and caused the smoke to vanish in an instant, revealing that

Black was still standing, at least taking considerable damage, catching the others by surprise while also making Piccolo tense a bit before Goku Black laughed.

"Yes, outstanding! So, this is the power of the legendary Demon King Piccolo. Now, I understand! Although, I can't help but feel more excited if I was fighting Goku instead of

you.", Black said.

Piccolo only gave a glare at Black as he spoke.

"Should've known you'd survive this attack. Although, I can't help but feel that you and Goku are alike when it comes to the thrill of fighting someone stronger than you."

Black concurred as he began to power up.

"Yes."

Then, lightning struck elsewhere as Black bellowed for a bit with his aura exploding at half power before it dissipated, but still left behind a purple glowing hue around him. 21

was somewhat shocked.

"What? How can he hide that much power?", 21 asked.

Yurei turned to 21 and responded.

"I'm afraid it gets worse.", Yurei stated.

21 gasped with worry as she looked back to Piccolo. Piccolo, however, saw that as a foul on his part.

"Really? Now you fight seriously? That's a rookie mistake to hold back at the start of the fight."


Meanwhile, back at Capsule Corp, the portal began reacting somewhat violently, concerning Future Mai, Future Bulma, Bulma, and Trunks.

"What is that?", Bulma exclaimed with worry.


Back at the desert mountains in the meantime, Black hovered upward to face Piccolo.

"You know, apart from your current power, Yurei's power is the only good thing the warrior race ever produced. I want to feel that close up from yours first."

Then, Black charged toward Piccolo and tried to hit him but was blocked every time, although he did not just keep his own composure, but he also started laughing

menacingly, too. As Black laughed, Piccolo had one comment on that.

"This guy has to be a monster!", Piccolo thought.

Goku Black then punched Piccolo in the gut before kicking him back with his leg and foot. Then, Black began firing black Ki Blasts from his hand, forcing Piccolo to evade them

at every which way as Black laughed menacingly. 21 was astonished with Piccolo's current endurance in the fight.

"That's incredible! So far, Piccolo is being pushed back, but he's hanging in there.", 21 stated.

Krillin had his own reaction to the rate this fight's going down.

"Yeah, but it seems like the guy in black just keeps getting stronger and stronger.", Krillin stated.

"And that's the worst part right in front of you." Yurei proved.

Then, suddenly, Yurei's blue Time Ring flashed a bit, catching his attention, causing him to turn back to the reacting portal nearby.

"What the-?" Yurei puzzled.

Then, Piccolo and Black were clashing with each other with Piccolo being punched in the face two times but still kept going before the same thing happened to Black. That was

when they stepped back for a bit before Piccolo tried to kick him in the head, only for Black to block it before he retaliated with a punch in the cheek. Then, Piccolo tried to

punch Black but was halted by Black's own fists three times before they both punched each other in the cheek.


The result surprised Krillin, Trunks, Bulma, and the Pilaf Gang while everyone else watched nonchalantly, even Beerus and Whis back at Capsule Corp.


Back at the stormy desert mountains, as Black smirked, Piccolo only growled in anger before both slowly removed their cheeks from each other before backing away slowly.

Piccolo had a hunch that Black was hiding something.

"Enough playing around, Black! What are you hiding?", Piccolo asked.

"I could ask you the same.", Black answered.

"Neither of us is gonna get anywhere until you show me your true power to the fullest."

Black, however, felt that there was no need.

"But I'm getting too much out of this to rush. That will come in time. Let's enjoy ourselves."


Back at Capsule Corp., Beerus and Whis had their own thoughts about Black and Yurei.

"The power emanating from this so-called "Black" is considerable, sir.", Whis commented.

"Yes, and it's interesting, too. It feels like Goku, but it's not Goku. I'm not sure if I've ever sensed an energy quite like this before. And then, there's Yurei. He has a Time

Ring, too, but it appears to have a color of the highest degree: Blue. Curious, don't you think?", Beerus said.

Whis had another thought regarding Piccolo.

"Yes, my lord, but what is also curious is how this Namekian seems to be holding his own against Black. Maybe I'll consider training him, too.", Whis said.

Beerus, however, got puzzled.

"Are you suggesting that we train this namekian, Whis?", Beerus asked.

"Just a thought, my lord.", Whis answered.


At the stormy desert mountains, Piccolo can already guess what he needs to do.

"Right now, I'm guessing the only way to convince you to release your full power is if I force you to.", Piccolo surmised.

Then, he entered his battle stance again and glared at him.

"I guess there's not much choice.", Piccolo said

Goku Black then cracked his neck before he responded.

"Well, I was hoping you'd say that."

"Oh, were you?" Piccolo asked rhetorically.

Then, he powered back up and yelled out as he charged toward Black and began punching through, only to be blocked for a second before he punched Black in the face

before two more punches landed in the face and another on the gut leading Piccolo to try again only for Black to catch his arm, catching Piccolo off-guard before Black's aura

emitted again a second before Black tossed Piccolo toward a nearby crevice, hitting him hard. Eventually, at the same time the portal began giving off a white, positive

feedback wave that goes inside the portal, which was sparking at the moment. Then, Yurei turned back to see Black chuckle, causing Yurei to tense in extreme anger, only for

the sound of the nearby time portal to get his attention.

When the portal sparked again, Yurei noticed that his Time Ring is reacting this time, letting him know that the distortion in space time is restoring itself. He then looked up

just in time to see Black, having a sudden sense before being kicked back by Piccolo's foot as he charged toward him and kicked Black all the way near the portal he came

through. Black then halted himself and clutched his chest in pain as Piccolo, Goku, Vegeta, Future Trunks, Android 21, Yurei, who quickly caught up, and Krillin caught up.

"The portal. It's calling him back to the future.", Yurei surmised.

Then, Black groaned and growled in anger for a bit before he chuckled.

"Excellent, Piccolo. Yes. You can hurt me as much as you want; the pain will only make me stronger."

Piccolo only responded angrily to Black in response.

"I've heard enough from you, Black! This ends now!", Piccolo shouted.

"Well, if you insist...", Black said.

Then, Goku Black powered up completely with his aura similar to Super Saiyan Blue, except that the outside is black and the inside is entirely purple, surprising Piccolo.

"What the heck?!", Piccolo exclaimed.

Krillin saw that as a downside while Android 21 saw the upside.

"Oh, joy! He's getting stronger.", Krillin complained.

"Yes, but Piccolo seems to be getting stronger, too.", 21 surmised.

Yurei turned to 21 out of confusion.

"You really believe that, 21?", Yurei asked.

"Take a good long look. Piccolo survived this fight against him like you did. Sure, he may have taken some considerable damage, but like I said, he's still hanging in there.",

21 stated.

Then, Goku Black began charging his Black Kamehameha.

"Ka... Me... Ha... Me..."

Piccolo tensed from seeing Black's move.

"He's even imitating Goku's move?!", Piccolo questioned.

"HAAAAAAAA!", Black shouted.

Then, Black had launched his attack toward Piccolo, only for him to grab hold of the blast and deflect it to the stormy sky, erasing the blast in the process due to the

lightning's massive power. Then, when the smoke cleared, Black was already close enough to Piccolo. He laughed maliciously and then he yelled out before he kicked Piccolo,

sending him crashing to the ground, causing a gust of wind, not only blowing in front of Bulma and Trunks, who shielded her from the dust, but also causing the Time

Machine to be knocked over, catching Future Trunks' attention.

"Careful! Not the Time Machine!", Future Trunks shouted.

Yurei overheard it and knew that it was only a matter of time before Black overheard this.

"Trunks, no! You're giving it away!"

"Huh? Hmmm.", Goku Black puzzled.

Then, much to Yurei's horror, Black did overhear this and saw it.

"Did he just call that a Time Machine?" Goku Black questioned. "Now, I see."

Then, Yurei had thoughts about the escalating situation.

"Blast it all! He wasn't supposed to find out about it! If he destroys it, there won't be any hope left for Trunks! I have to end this! Right here, right now!"

Then, Yurei bellowed with his voice raising in tone as his intense blue aura with four-pointed-star-shaped sparkles returns and gets even more intense.

Chapter 2

Play Sonic Forces Music: "Infinite's Beginning"

Goku Black just noticed the Time Machine from far away and had a puzzling revelation.

"So, that's the way he traveled through time; with a heap of metal?"

Then, suddenly, he overheard Yurei slowly raising his voice while bellowing and emitting the intense blue aura from before, puzzling him.

"Hmph. So, now the Saiyan wants to fight me?"

That was when Piccolo caught Black's attention as he flew off from the mini-crater and charged toward him.

"Black! You're fight's with me!", Piccolo shouted.

Then, he punch Black in the gut, causing him to cough up some bits of saliva.

Meanwhile, Yurei entered a stance when Vegeta began preparing his Final Flash and created two blue green orbs, one on each hand and fused them into one as he cupped his

hands, pressing the wrists against each other in front of him. Vegeta saw that and was surprised from the sight.

"What?! He's using my Final Flash?!", Vegeta exclaimed.

However, instead of just launching it, he also entered Goku's stance from when he charges up his Kamehameha to gather more energy much to Goku's surprise.

"Whaaaa?! He's even using my Kamehameha, too?!", shouted Goku.

Android 21 expressed her thoughts as she witnessed Yurei's special move in play.

"Two techniques in one? That's incredibly astounding!"

Meanwhile, just as Piccolo was about to follow up with another punch, Black quickly recovered and clashed his punch with his, neither willing to back down. Yurei then

shouted to Piccolo when the blue green orb with blue sparks got big enough.

"Piccolo, get out of the way!", shouted Yurei.

Piccolo overheard this and veered from his right, revealing Yurei, charging up his special move.

"All right!," Piccolo shouted.

Then, much to Goku Black's shock, he noticed Yurei charging up a Kamehameha based attack.

"What?!", Black exclaimed.

"FINAL KAMEHAMEHA!", shouted Yurei as he shot the blue-green Ki Wave straight toward Black.

However, despite the tremendous power, Black managed to hold it back, but still struggled to do so, nonetheless as he grunted. It was then that Black's Time Ring glowed

brightly. At that moment, Future Trunks and Android 21 gasped upon noticing the Time Portal opening up. Then, after a few moments of struggle, Yurei smirked and chuckled,

puzzling Black.

"Huh?", Black questioned.

Then, his Time Ring shined a bright, white light before Black was starting to get sucked in by the portal, surprising Beerus and Whis. Just as Yurei ceased his Final

Kamehameha and sighed in relief, Goku was curious about what is transpiring.

"Whoa. What's happening to him?", Goku asked.

Yurei figured out what is going on.

"The distortion in space and time is trying to restore itself, and it's sucking Black back to the future in the processs."

Krillin was puzzled.

"Hold on a minute. If that's true, then why aren't you being sucked in, too?"

Yurei smirked before he answered while also holding out his one finger with the blue Time Ring in view.

"Because it was his portal, not mine, Krillin. Unlike Black's, this Time Ring doesn't have a Time Limit on how long I can stay here. It is of the highest caliber, after all."

Piccolo gave a grin and scoffed as he glanced at Yurei.

"You know, you could've told me about that plan sooner.", Piccolo joked.

"Sorry, Piccolo. I didn't want him to catch on.", Yurei stated.

Black grew very shocked at the ruse Piccolo and Yurei apparently set up, let alone his predicament.

"What? How could I be defeated? How could I fall for a ruse as simple as that? How could I get so close and yet fall so short? How could I be denied my justice?!", Black

exclaimed.

Yurei only flew closer to Black in front of him.

"It's over, Black. You've lost.", Yurei told Black.

However, Black was not willing to give up as he noticed a slightly damaged Time Machine and prepared to fire his Ki Blast at it.

Android 21 noticed that and headed off for it.

"Oh, no! The Time Machine!", shouted 21.

Future Trunks noticed Android 21 heading off and got worried.

"21, wait!", Future Trunks shouted.

Meanwhile, Goku Black grunted as he struggled to aim.

"Not yet, I haven't!", Black grunted before he shot the black Ki Blast straight toward the Time Machine.

Unfortunately for him, the moment he did that, Android 21 dashed in front of it and stood in the Ki Blast's path, before Yurei quickly sensed it with superhuman speed and got

in front of her and deflected the Black Ki Blast to the sky before it was struck by lightning amidst the heavy rain, stunning everyone else with surprise, Goku Black most of all

before Yurei turned to him.

"What?", Goku Black exclaimed.

Yurei turned to Black despite the heavy rain pelting him.

"What do you think I meant when I told you that you lost?"

Black only grunted a bit and stated his threat.

"You may have won this battle, Yurei, but the war's only beginning. Soon, all you mortals will be wiped out, and there is nothing you can do to stop it! Aaah!"

Then, after saying his last words, Black was dragged back to the future by his own portal, confusing Goku and Krillin.

"Hey!", shouted Goku.

"Okay. That's a new one.", responded Krillin.

Then, the storm began to clear out quickly, the skies changing back to normal as Piccolo tried to sense Black's energy but failed.

"I'm not sending his energy. It's almost as if he's completely vanished.", Piccolo stated.


Then, Yurei sighed in relief as he reverted back to normal form with spiky, Super-Saiyan-God-like hair, and turned to Android 21.

"Are you okay, 21?", asked Yurei.

Android 21 nodded to him in response as she answered.

"Y-Yeah. I'm just fine."

"That was a risky move you did, back there. You could have been hurt, or worse."

Android 21 only smirked as she chuckled a bit before she responded.

"Could've been, but I'm not."

Yurei saw her point and chuckled back and responded.

"True enough."

21 wanted to know who he is, seeing as she never got to know his name.

"Oh, wait, you never told me your name."

Yurei was taken aback a bit before he slightly chuckled and turned to her before he answered.

"It's Yurei."

Android 21 felt as though it had some certain meaning.

"Yurei, huh? That's actually a symbolic name."

Yurei gave a grin before he responded.

"Yeah. I get that a lot."

Piccolo, having overheard his name, gave a grin and scoffed.

"To think that he's another surviving Saiyan from the future and this one only seeks to defend and protect instead of destroy and conquer. What are the odds.", Piccolo says

to himself.


Meanwhile, Beerus and Whis can already guess what has occurred.

"Our invader didn't disappear by his own choice, did he?", Beerus asked.

"Hard to know for sure, my lord.", Whis answered. "But it's most likely that machine created a considerable warp in the space-time as it passed through it and that Time Ring

reacted to the warp, pulling Black to this time somewhat like a planet spiraling down into a gravity well. As the disturbance subsided and space-time returned to its former

state, the pull ceased, too. So, like a marble in a drawn slingshot, when the pulling force let go, Black was launched back into the Time from which he came. No more pull, so

no more Black. You might say he ran out of time."


Meanwhile, Black was unwillingly returned to the future by the pulling force and found himself there.

"So, I'm back to the future.", Black stated.

Then, he felt a pain on his chest and grunted as he remembered the blows dealt to him by Piccolo and Yurei, although in the end, even Yurei dealt the most damage to him.

Black growled angrily at the thought.

"Blast that Yurei!", Black exclaimed before he descended downward unwillingly, due to the extreme pain and crashed into the ground.

Black had his own thoughts as he looked up from ground view, his back against the bottom of the crater, and then smiled, considering it was somewhat of a bittersweet

victory.

"So, Yurei. That's what the power of your exalted Super Saiyan Sapphire transformation feels like. It's quite a different thing to experience how you fight firsthand now that I

can apply it so directly to myself. All those earlier battles with you and Trunks were instructive, but this will help me hone my strength so much further."

Black breathed heavily as he reached his hand out before the portal disappeared while Black's Time Ring slowly stopped glowing, much to his behest.

"No. Looks like I won't be able to go back there again.", Black calmly lamented.

Then, Black stood right back up and began floating in the air and spoke of the bright side.

"But that's okay, because even though I wasn't able to destroy their Time Machine, I was able to get some experience from Yurei as my consolation prize. So, it wasn't a total

loss. Besides, even if I did destroy it, the female Android would just rebuild it in a matter of weeks, let alone hours. And then, there's Yurei and his Time Ring. If he was able

to use it to go to the past, who knows what he's capable of. Either way, Trunks, Yurei, his friends and family, they'll all return, and then-"

Then, Black started to chuckle before it turned into a malicious laugh as lightning struck amidst the heavy rain at night.

"There will be no one left in this world who can resist me!"


While Black was reveling in his prize, however, in the past, Goku and the others were already gathered around the slightly damaged and chipped Time Machine. Frankly, it still

remained functional despite the fight from earlier, well, except for the lack of fuel for the Time Machine, but that's a small enough detail. Trunks turned to Future Trunks and

had to ask him something.

"So, what do you think happened to him?", Trunks asked his future self.

Future Trunks turned to his younger self and answered.

"Like Yurei said, I'm sure he returned to the future."

Then, Future Trunks turned to 21 and Yurei.

"Hey, you two!", shouted Future Trunks, catching their attention.

"Huh?", puzzled Yurei.

"What is it?", asked 21.

Future Trunks then gave a grin.

"Thank you two for saving the Time Machine, although you really had me worried back there. I thought you were gonna get killed by that Blast.", Future Trunks said.

21 only winked at Future Trunks as she spoke the way Mai did with Trinks a few hours earlier.

"Oh, come on, Trunks. That just means you don't know what I'm capable of, well, not yet, at least.", 21 responded.

That puzzled Future Trunks.

"Huh? What do you mean by that?", Future Trunks asked.

"Well, it's kind of a long story, Trunks.", both Future Bulma and Future Mai said in unison.

Yurei held out his right index finger as he smirked and spoke.

"Well, in any case, even if it was destroyed, we'd still go back with this. Figured it would come in handy, like a second Time Machine, or something like that, at least.

Although, that would be helpful, considering a great number of reinforcements required, and we might not have enough space."

Little did he know that Yurei inadvertently triggered Bulma's memory of the Time Machine Cell used once, causing Bulma to gasp surprising Trunks.

"Oh, yes, of course!", Bulma shouted.

"Uh, Mom? Hey!", Trunks says as Bulma darted off to the lab, catching Yurei by surprise as well.

"Huh? Where is she going?", Yurei puzzled.


Meanwhile, she struggled to look for a special Capsule as she went from place to place.

"Come on, I know I put it in here somewhere! Honestly, it's like my whole lab's a junk drawer!"


Then, outside in the meantime, as Yurei glared puzzledly at the direction Bulma headed off, Goku wanted to know something from Future Trunks, breaking him out of his

stupor before he turned to see Goku and Future Trunks talking.

"Tell me.", Goku said.

"Huh?", puzzled Future Trunks.

"Compared to all the other times you and Yurei went up against Black in your future, just how strong did he seem during your fight?", Goku asked.

Then, Future Trunks remembered the last fight that he and Yurei had in the future and answered truthfully.

"He's shown me more power. But I wouldn't say it's much more."

"So, he was only holding back a little against me?", Goku questioned.

"Yeah. I think.", Future Trunks responded.

"Awesome!", Goku grinned.

Then, Vegeta interrupted Goku quickly.

"Good, then you can relax."

Future Trunks turned to Vegeta before he spoke further.

"Kakarot's true battle power is a great deal higher than that."

That statement surprised Future Trunks.

"What?", Future Trunks puzzled.

"And let me state for the record, the same goes for mine as well.", Vegeta continued.

"How? What have you guys been through?", Future Trunks asked.

"Hah. Quite a bit.", Vegeta answered.

Play Super Music: "A Bad Premonition"

Future Trunks then looked back to Yurei and then to Goku and Vegeta, comparing him to them in his thoughts.

"Wait. If Yurei has this Super Saiyan Sapphire, does this mean that Goku and my father can use that too. I don't want to get my hopes up just yet. I've had quite a tough day

lately.", thought Future Trunks.


Then, Piccolo glanced toward Goku and told him something about Black.

"Black might be weaker than you now, but I felt his energy growing rapidly when I was fighting him."

Goku remembered that too and realized what could happen.

"Yeah. There's no telling how deep it goes.", Goku hunched.

Yurei concurred with Goku at this point.

"You may be right on this one, Kakarot.", Yurei responded.

Both Goku and Vegeta were surprised.

"I am?", Goku asked.

"He is?", Vegeta asked in unison with Goku.

"Yeah, but the point is, we can't afford another moment's hesitation. We have to consider any and every strategy to catch Black off-guard and defeat him."

Goku nodded in agreement as did the others before he wanted to know something about him.

"Oh. By the way..," Goku started.

"Hmm?", puzzled Yurei.

"Did you come with Trunks from the future?", Goku asked, puzzling Yurei a bit.

"Of course, I did. Otherwise, I wouldn't be with you guys right now.", Yurei answered.

Goku chuckled and scratched his head before he responded.

"Well, I guess that makes sense."

Then, Whis spoke next, catching everyone's attention.

"True, but these events raise other vexing questions, though.", Whis said.

"What?", Yurei asked.

"Did any of you notice the ring Black was wearing? On his right hand?," Whis asked.

"Yeah, so?", Future Trunks answered.

"Well, it happens to have been a Time Ring, which only Supreme Kai are allowed to use, and evidently, Yurei has one like it, only this one appears to be one with a caliber of

the highest degree. Most puzzling, wouldn't you say?", Whis stated as Yurei looked back in his blue Time Ring, which shimmered at that moment from the sun's light.

Future Trunks and Piccolo had questions of their own, although Future Trunks remembered the Time Ring.

"Oh, yeah. I remember that.", Future Trunks said.

"Are you saying that means both Yurei and Goku Black are Supreme Kai?", asked Piccolo.

Beerus only rebuffed that question as he got out another fish sausage.

"Oh, don't be ridiculous. Supreme Kai are divine beings and they certainly do not look like Saiyans."

Then, as Beerus took a bite, Yurei responded.

"Well, you're half right, my lord. I may not be a Supreme Kai, but Black was one once."

Beerus widened his eyes as he swallowed it.

"What exactly are you getting at, boy?", Beerus asked.

"What I'm getting at is before he was Black, he was Zamasu, the Supreme Kai in training from Universe 10.", Yurei answered, surprising everyone.

End Super Music: "A Bad Premonition"

"What? Just who is Zamasu and what does he even think he is?", 21 asked before Yurei turned his face to her and then turned around to face her.

"Remember when I said that I can think of one person who would think that wiping out humanity would be justice? Well, unfortunately, Zamasu fits that mindset.", Yurei

answered.

Future Trunks wanted to know more about him.

"Was he always like that, Yurei?", Future Trunks asked.

"No. He's even worse.", Yurei answered, causing Android 21, Future Bulma, Future Mai, and Future Trunks to gasp in shock while Beerus and Whis merely widened their eyes

a bit, "hmm'ing".

Play Super Music: "A Secret Plan with One's Life on the Line"

Then, Yurei began telling the story as it showed Zamasu with Gowasu in front of each other and even showed them drinking tea, at one point. Then, it showed Zamasu

opening his eyes menacingly before he killed Gowasu, nabbed the Time Ring, put it on his right index finger and then summoned Super Shenron and switched bodies with

Goku. Then, it showed every Destroyer and Supreme Kai being eliminated in every Universe, except one: Universe 7.

"The fact of the matter is Zamasu once trained under his master, Gowasu, wanting to wipe out all evil and spread justice. Unfortunately, however, he ultimately came to the

conclusion that all of humanity is the source of all evil and vowed to destroy it once and for all. First, he killed his own master, stole the Time Ring and then used it to gather

7 planet-sized orbs known as the Super Dragon Balls. After that, he used them to switch bodies with Goku, resulting in Goku Black. Ever since, he killed all but one Supreme

Kai, resulting in the passing of 11 Destroyers and destroying every planet in these 11 universes in the process. Then, Universe 7 was the last thing in his list.", Yurei stated.

"You don't say.", Whis responded.

"Yeah. He already wiped out most of the planets residing there, even destroying the Super Dragon Balls as an added measure to prevent anyone from undoing his so-called

'Zero Mortal Plan'. I heard rumors about planets mysteriously being destroyed, but now I know the monster responsible for this was Zamasu using Goku's body to destroy

humanity, and I've hated him ever since."

As Yurei spoke further, it showed Yurei smiling as he watched over the little namekian children, before it showed Black smiling menacingly and then beginning his cruel assault on New Namek, only to be quickly halted by Yurei who eventually failed and was at his mercy after a few minutes passed since the fight. Just as Black was seemingly about to kill him, Yurei began to stand up as his hair flashed blue the same way Goku's hair flashed from when he first turned Super Saiyan, against Frieza. Then, Yurei roared in anger before his eyes turned completely white with fury as a bright blue aura flared up, shocking Black. Black was shocked even more when Yurei's Transformation into a Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan and then charged toward Black to destroy him. In the end, Yurei only blasted Black away, but not before Black held it back, grinning fur a few moments before Yurei yelled out, pushing the blast even higher and sending Black out of New Namek before Yurei powered down from his blue form before he turned to the Grand Elder, barely alive and helped him up and recover before it showed him helping Yurei through meditative training before Yurei opened his eyes and quickly turned Super Saiyan Sapphire for the first time. After that, it showed Porunga granting a wish to repair New Namek, before it showed Dende smiling and holding Yurei's hand.

"But the only planet I was able to save before I went to Earth was New Namek. I had just settled there and even lived peacefully among the Namekians, that is, until Black

first showed up. Initially, I fought him, but I still wasn't strong enough back then. Even at Black's mercy, I was still determined, determined to fight my hardest and end

Black's treacherous plan once and for all, determined to save everyone, and that was it. That was when I first turned Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, or Super Saiyan Azure,

as Bulma called it. The battle was tough, but still I was able to Blast him away from New Namek, but not before he told me that Earth is next on his list if I wanted to fight

him again. But, before I went, I underwent some peaceful training to heighten my power even further, eventually leading me to unlock Super Saiyan Sapphire. After that, I

decided to keep this form secret from Black up till now and helped patch things up with the Namekian Dragon Balls and wished the planet back to normal."

It then showed Yurei arriving in a vortex with glowing blue eyes before the vortex vanished, revealing his actual appearance after a few seconds passed. Yurei then saw

nothing but chaos and despair everywhere in the rainy thunderstorm. He then noticed Black and Future Trunks first fighting each other. Yurei was surprised to see someone

else like him stand up to Black before he snapped out of his surprise and quickly dashed toward him to help him, unknowingly gathering up some of the clouds in the process,

shrouding his body before lightning struck around it, giving it a bit of flare. Then, just as Black was about to Stab Future Trunks in the back with him on the ground with his

own sword, he turned to notice Yurei and was not able to react quick enough before he was punched in the cheek by Yurei, who quickly left just as Future Trunks managed to

stand back up and barely saw a comet of lightning that saved him from Black.

"It was only when I arrived on Earth that I saw that it has already suffered some damage in the city, and that's when I first met Trunks. Although, he probably hadn't known

it was me for a year. And that takes us up to now."

End Super Music: "A Secret Plan with One's Life on the Line"

"Oh, my. Seems a great deal has happened a lot in the future, my lord.", Whis said.

"Yeah, no joke.", Beerus concurred.

Android 21 grew enamored and smiled at him as Whis revealed more about them.

"But, still, Time Rings are only designed to take you into the future. They only move back when returning travelers to the time from which they came. It is normally

impossible to travel any farther back than your own relative present. Again, traveling to the past is strictly forbidden, even for deities, due to the grievous complexities it

creates."

Goku grew puzzled and tried to think it through.

"Hmm? So, you can't go to the past to get a present for your relative? I get confused just talking about this stuff."

Krillin chuckled a bit nervously as Piccolo somewhat corrected him.

"Something's happened that shouldn't have, Goku. That's all that you need to worry about."

Beerus then glanced back at Yurei, who responded to his question.

"That reminds me, exactly how did you even get a Time Ring, let alone one with a caliber of the highest degree?", Beerus asked.

"Well, I trained with Supreme Kai to be able to help out around the 7th Universe, and eventually, I was given that Time Ring because of how well I progressed with him on his

planet, probably because I had the spirit of the Super Saiyan God burning bright inside me, but that was way before he left for Earth to warn someone about Majin Buu, but

after that, he never came back."

Whis widened his eyes from hearing this.

"Oh, my. That would mean that you are the chosen one.", Whis said.

That puzzled Yurei from hearing that.

"Wh-what?", asked Yurei.

"But, of course.", Beerus replied. "Just before Vegeta arrived on my world this morning, Seer told me of another prophecy. 'He who bears the Time Ring as blue as Divinity

shall surely lead the strongest army against a corrupt evil in the future and become the Ultimate Savior of the Multiverse'. That ultimate savior is you, Yurei."

Yurei and Android 21 were more surprised than anyone else, that is, except for Vegeta, Goku, Trunks, Krillin. and Piccolo.

"Wh-Whaaaat?!", 21 exclaimed.

"Me? I'm the Ultimate Savior of the Multiverse?", Yurei puzzled.

"No way!", Goku exclaimed.

"He's the what?!", Vegeta shouted.

"Oh, wow! He's actually some kind of chosen one?!", Trunks asked.

"Hey, I'm just as surprised as you right now.", Krillin stated.

Piccolo only stared with his mouth a bit agape as did Future Trunks, Future Mai, and Future Bulma as well as even the young Pilaf Gang.

21 expressed her joy.

"You're actually the one, Yurei! There just might be another hope for our future after all!" 21 shouted.

Yurei only grew a bit puzzled at her sudden joy.

"Uh, come again?", Yurei puzzled.

Then, Android 21 realized her blunder and then giggled nervously.

"That's not something you need to worry about right now.", 21 responded.

Yurei grew confused from the scene now.

"Uh, okay?"


Beerus and Whis had thoughts about where the journey would go.

"So, Whis. Should we guess what our troublemakers will do next with Yurei babysitting them?", Beerus asked.

"Well, from what we witnessed on the fight against Black, I believe that Yurei doesn't seem like the kind of person to give up. Honestly, he may not be a Kai, but still, he

takes a crazy idea and runs with it.", Whis answered.

"Mortals are always so quick to be defermined. But sometimes, there are forces beyond your control. Knowing when to give up's an important skill, too.", Beerus commented.

Then, he glanced back at the puzzled Yurei with Android 21 already swooning over him with hearts for eyes in a comical way before Yurei noticed a bouquet of wild parsnips

and gave them to Android 21, earning her smile and blush before she happily sniffed them.

"But now that you mention it, Whis, Yurei does seem like an uncontrollable force all by himself. In other words, just like Goku, but less stupid."

Whis then noticed only one fish sausage left.

"Speaking of uncontrollable forces, where are the other fish sausages?", Whis asked.

"They're in my belly.", Beerus answered in a somewhat hilarious tone.

Whis stated his concern.

"That's what I was afraid of, my lord.", Whis said.

Then, Whis got out the last fish sausage in the bowl and opened it up, revealing its nice texture as he somewhat taunts Beerus.

"I guess that means this fine specimen I've been holding is the last one.", Whis said as Beerus stated with surprise.

"I bet you'd love to eat this.", Whis taunted.

Beerus smiled and gulped in response before his attendant taunted even further.

"But, as you said, we all have to know when to give up."

Then, Whis took a bite out of it before Beerus began growling at Whis with such venom in response to Whis' last taunt.

"Oh! So delicious!"


Suddenly, Bulma quickly dashed back outside yelling at the top of her lungs.

"I found it, I found it, I found it, I found it!"

The others looked in surprise as Bulma panted heavily while Krillin was just curious.

"You found what?", Krillin asked.

Piccolo growled a bit before Krillin had a guess as to what it isn't.

"I'm just gonna guess you didn't mean a hair brush."

Bulma then smiled as she explained what happened.

"I had to tear my lab apart to find it, but I knew it was in there somewhere!"

Trunks grew curious about it.

"What are you talking about, Mom?"

Bulma only giggled she held out a small yellow Capsule with the number 7 on it.

"Guys, look! Check it out!", Bulma said as she pushed the top of it before tossing it to the ground.

It was about to hit the ground, but then, it turned into a Time Machine sized puff of white smoke before it revealed a second Time Machine, that is, the one Cell used 7 years

earlier, catching Future Trunks and Vegeta, Yurei and Android 21, the Pilaf Gang, Beerus and Whis, and Goku by surprise.

"Ooh.", Whis reacted.

"Huh?!", Beerus reacted.

"Whaaaa...?", exclaimed Goku.

Bulma then introduced it.

"Ta-da! A Time Machine!", Bulma shouted.

Future Trunks grew very shocked about it, in a sort of good way.

"Wait, what?!", Future Trunks puzzled.

Future Mai was just as shocked as he is.

"How could there be another one right there?!", Future Mai demanded.

Bulma giggled before she explained as did Android 21 for the plans.

"There was still one more, remember?", Bulma asked.

"It may look old, but given enough time, Bulma and I might actually get it up and running again.", Android 21 believed.

Future Bulma put her arm on Android 21's shoulder before she responded to her plan.

"Sounds like a plan, 21. We'll get started right away!", Future Bulma concurred.

Piccolo then turned to Goku and grinned.

"Did you hear that, Goku? It looks like you'll get your chance after all.", Piccolo stated.

Goku grew ecstatic form hearing this.

"Really?!", Goku exclaimed.

Then, Yurei clutched his fingers on his right hand together into a fist before he expressed his joy and determination mixed together.

"All right, guys! Let's do this!", Yurei shouted as his blue Time Ring shimmered.

Then, Yurei turned to Future Trunks as he wanted to know something else.

"Hey, Trunks. Do you know someone else in your timeline who can stand up to Black in the meantime?'

Future Trunks gave a grin before he answered.

"As a matter of fact, Yurei, I do. She may be barely an adult, but she's surprisingly as strong as I am. Who knows? Maybe even more so than I realize myself."


Future Trunks couldn't have been more right, for meanwhile, in the future, while it was raining up quite a storm in the surface outside as a lightning bolt even struck the very spot where Gohan had perished at one point, splitting it into 8 small bolts that left a trail of flames that were quickly doused by the heavy raindrops, in an underground laboratory of the Red Ribbon Army, now the main Headquarters of the resistance force against Goku Black, a black-haired teenage girl with an average bust size for normal teenage girls as well as a brown Saiyan tail, an orange bandana, and clothes similar to Zangya's for the case of the shirt, and Kogu's for the pants, but had shoes similar to Gotenks' and fingerless gloves, training in the gravity chamber the usual way Vegeta does. When she stopped the last drone, the chamber deactivated. The Raven-haired girl sighed in exhaustion just as Android 16 opened the door, catching her attention.

"Huh? Oh, 16! You're here!", the girl greeted. "I just finished up on my daily training."

16 then looked at the girl.

"I brought a little guest over to the Resistance, Pan.", he said.

Future Pan grew quite curious, yet a bit worried all the same.

"What guest? Don't tell me. It's Black, isn't it?"

"Not quite.", 16 answered. "He's actually someone else that 21 released recently. He could be of great help to us, at least until Trunks arrives with reinforcements."

Future Pan wanted to know more now.

"Really? Who is that?"


Eventually, she found the most peculiar answer standing right in front of her as she stared in a confused manner.

"Buuuuuuuuuuu!", Future Buu shouted.

The confused Future Pan turned to Android 16.

"Wait. That's Majin Buu?"

"You do not need to worry. He appears to be docile as long as we do not anger him."

Future Pan smiled ironically while staring with widened eyes and chuckled nervously.

"I don't...believe it.", Future Pan responded.

A/N: Boom! There she is! The secret character was none other than Pan! Sometime after I found out about Pan's true role as a sort of Damsel in Distress for Goku in "GT", I was somewhat fed up with it and decided that she has to at least reach the same level as Future Trunks, never mind Goku or Vegeta. Still, if any of you guys have any suggestions as to how I should keep this story interesting from beginning to end, leave one and state what change I should make for Chapters 5-21. I can also do this saga's epilogue episodes, too, if you like. Just say when I should do it and I'll see what I can do to get ready. That is all. Thanks, everyone. I'll return with a new chapter for this saga sometime next week. Ciao! :)
