Guru is awesome. There is no denying it, no two ways about it. He's just that fucking amazing. With what he's given me, I could be a human and I'd still be capable of reaching the point I want to in the end. Being a saiyan? Guru basically just handed me a big sign saying 'You win'.
A dimensional sub space that may as well be a world of its own. Already fitted with a big ass island and a small ocean while at it. A place I could enter as I pleased with just a thought. A place where I could reach in and touch anyplace within it with a passing idea. A world wholly tied to me, connected to my very ki to nurture it and give it life.
The perfect place to grow a Tree of Might. all I'd needed to do was set the seed that I received from the wish I made on Porunga on the island Guru had graciously already set within the subspace and with the dimension itself connected to me and my infinite ki generator through me, a massive gargantuan tree thousands of miles tall grew from the island and pierced into the sky, it was an awe inspiring sight to say the least.
I'd hugged Guru so hard and tightly he'd had to use the Four Witches form that he'd learned from reading my memories to grow an extra two massive muscular arms to pry me off.
Twenty Four. That was how many fruit the Tree of Might I had could grow per day. According to Guru, those twenty four had easily as much life force as Planet Namek itself topped into them. Due to my infinite ki generator, I could easily output the entire life force of a planet...in a single day, and feel little to nothing from it.
I'm so fucking glad the guy who's memories I got went through a spree of watching 'What If' videos about Dragon Ball Z on Youtube and got the idea to obtain an Infinite Ki Generator from one of Masako X's ideas.
I've spent a week in here after deciding to try and master my Super Saiyan form since receiving this amazing gift from Guru and just from eating the fruit produced in those seven days, increased my battle power from them alone by just over three million. I've literally grown a bit stronger than Goku from the canon Namek Saga, just by eating some fruit a week.
Work smarter, not harder was definitely something I could get behind these days.
Sounds like thunder boomed from above and building destroying shock waves tore through the air as golden light dyed sky in its hue.
Sitting not far away from me, Dende flinched at the collision of my two clones fighting in far up in the air above. He'd come along with Bulma after me and Guru were gone. Apparently, Guru had upon unlocking his potential also passed on the knowledge how to use the Potential Unlock spell he had created.
Guru had confided in me, that on Earth Dende had made quite something of himself. And he hoped to attain such a status for his current youngest child again with my help, while at the same time being a massive help to my quest to protect the universe and raise the mortal level so that Zeno doesn't erase us.
"You alright there Little Green?" I asked him from where I lay, my head resting comfortably on Bulma's luscious thighs.
"I'm fine...I'm just still getting used to such strong power colliding nearby," Dende replied softly, flashing a slightly uncomfortable smile my way, "..Though, can I ask why you keep calling me that?"
"Just a little nickname since you're small and green," I waved him off with some amusement, "If you work hard, you might be Super Kami Dende one day."
A fist thumped me on the head admonishingly. It was lucky I was still in my Super Saiyan form, or with my power third of its usual amount in the base form, that would actually hurt a bit considering how strong the person that fist belongs to now is.
"Don't tease Dende like that!" Bulma told me, looking down at me from where she she was fiddling with her scouter, "He's still new to the kind of ribbing jokes from Earth, he might think you're actually bullying him. Make him feel bad and you'll be sleeping on the couch."
"There's three beds in the ship though." I protested, pointing to where the ship was a few dozen feet away besides one of he gargantuan roots of the Tree of Might. Since Bulma decided to follow me in here and brought Dende along with her, I brought the spaceship in while we were at it.
Honestly, this place is hella convenient like that. It basically doubles as an inventory as far as I'm concerned. An ever growing one as well, because I'm pretty sure that the island has expanded since that first day by quite a bit. No idea how either. Maybe just an effect of the abundant ki passed through into this dimension?
"And? I'll just push two together to give me more space and the third is for Dende obviously." Bulma stuck her tongue out at me smugly. If Dende wasn't here, I'd shoot up and catch it between my lips, see how smug she'd be then.
"...I-It's alright Miss Bulma," Dende lifted his small green hands up facing us, trying to calm her down, "I know he's only joking."
"See, Dende's cool." I smirked up at her.
When she just rolled her eyes ad wen back to what she was doing, I let my smirk grow with the taste of victory. I reached into the air, and with a thought a portal formed over my palm, allowing me to reaching in to it and grab one of the fruit growing above, the newest batch had finished a few hours ago. I could just fly up above and grab one, but fuck that, I'm comfy here.
"Here, have a bite Dende," I said when I pulled my arm back, a spiky orange fruit held within my hand and tossed it to the young Namekian child, "Welcome to Team Kakarot."
"..Umm, thank you?" Dende bowed his head politely to me after catching the fruit, and only after that did he raise the fruit to his mouth and begin eating it. Like all first timers, he completely lost control and let it all burst out. His aura of ki that is. "..Oh wow, this is delicious!"
"There's more where that came from kid," I replied flashing him a thumbs up, "If you want some more jut let me know, alright?"
Dende smiled at me through a mouthful of fruit, but as he made to respond; "Well now, you're certainly having fun aren't you?" a crisp and smoothly amused voice rang out from behind us. One I did not recognize at all. I didn't sense anything at all.
I jerked up from Bulma's lap to look behind us while she and Dende yelped together at the sudden voice that came out of nowhere. My eyes widened when I saw who it was. A tall muscular youth with light purple skin and white hair, a pair of black round spectacles framing his eyes. And as I did, I suddenly sensed it just appearing as if it had always been there all along. His power. It was...massive, so large that I couldn't sense an end to it.
with a thought, I dismissed my two clones and I was exploding forward at my top speed, my musculature bulking up and a second set of arms growing from my shoulder blades, in what was almost an instant I was lashing out with four punches, each capable of most likely tearing Frieza's head from his body.
And just as suddenly, I was flying backwards at a tremendous speed, blood spewing from my mouth and my body throbbing with so much pain I was delirious for a moment.
I flew back miles, slamming into the ocean and sending gargantuan tidal waves blasting in opposite directions from where I impacted.
"W-what the hell?" I muttered in wide eyed shock from where I lay floating in the ocean water. My arms, all four of them were mangled and bent in opposite directions, as were my legs and it felt like all my organs were crushed.
"My you actually survived that," Fu commented as he suddenly appeared above me, a genial smile on his lips while he stared down at me crimson red eyes filled with keen interest, "That wish you made for regeneration is quite something, heck you've already mostly recovered, splendid!"
Exactly as he said, in mere seconds the pain faded and my mangled bones and organs knit themselves together, while I felt my strength grow, my ki bubbling with even greater power within me.
The thought to as him what the hell he was doing here crossed my mind. But it was drowned out by body shaking rage. "Solar Flare!" I roared, lifting my hands to my face and creating a massive burst of blinding light.
I shot into the air and cupped my hands together, all four of them. Blue burst into existence and quickly transitioned into an angry sparking crimson red as I channelled all of my ki into the sphere of energy between my hands. I could afford to with my infinite ki generator. It bucked in my hands and the sheer density of the energy cupped between my four palms felt like I was keeping a planet aloft, "One Hundred Times Kamehameha!" I thrust out all four arms towards where he was a moment later one arm over his eyes.
I made sure to aim diagonally upwards as I unleashed the the crackling crimson red sphere of energy in a massive beam of galaxy shaking power. It roared over Fu and blotted out everything within my field of vision, and then I pumped my suddenly refilled reserves of ki into it all over again keeping the beam going on and on. I kept it going for an entire minute before I lowered my arms panting deeply.
"Tch." I scowled, clicking my tongue when the wave of red disappeared to show Fu standing there in the air no worse for wear, one hand raised up into the air where he'd been blocking my attack. The only signs of damage being a light burn mark on his hand that disappeared almost an instant later.
"My my, not bad," Fu chuckled, "And really you don't play around at all huh? Poor Majin Buu would have very hard time surviving that."
As expected, if he could be stopped by a guy like me right now so easily he wouldn't have been that big a deal in the first place.
"What else have you got?" the purple skinned demon god asked, his eyes shining with interest as he regarded me.
..I've got nothing actually. There's nothing I have that can touch this dude. Even if I go full Dragon Fist with both Shenron and Porunga, I doubt I'll even scratch him.
Well, There is one chance. I didn't want to try this out at all until I was at a place it wouldn't matter or if there was something strong enough to reign me in.
But, it may be my only option if I don't want to end up ganked and put under that crazy dark energy thing that he and his family put everyone under during Xenoverse.
I filtered an obscene amount of ki into my right palm, creating a huge Power Ball and overcharged it to create as many and as powerful Blutz Waves as I could, "Burst open and mi-" I made to toss it into the air.
"Oh," Fu shook his head and suddenly before I could even blink he was in front of me and I gagged as his fist was buried in my stomach. Once again I felt my organs get pulped and my ribs shattered, "To think you know about that as well huh? It'll be no fun though if you go for Super Saiyan 4 this early." he commented as grasped my hand with the Power Ball within it with his other hand not buried in my stomach...and tore it right off at the shoulder with a simple pull.
"RAAAAAH!" I screamed in agony as a fountain of blood erupted from my now gaping shoulder, "FUCK YOU!" I spat a massive crimson red mouth energy blast, but his eyes flashed and the beam suddenly changed directions the split moment it left my mouth and shot up into the air before it could even travel the few inches between us.
"Really there's no need to be rude about it." he sighed, and then my jaw and my neck splintered and broke as he backhanded me with my own arm and sent me flying once again, "I think I'll keep this to run some tests on." I heard him comment idly as he looked over my bloodied and missing appendage in his grasp.
That was the last I saw before I blacked out.
And a few moments later, I gasped awake at the feeling of water invading my limbs. I was deep underwater and sinking fast. I flared my golden aura around my and shot up like a rocket, splitting the ocean apart and getting into the sky, hacking, coughing and splutters to dispel the water from my lungs. The only solace was the pain was gone and my body whole and fully healed once again.
"Are you ready to talk now?" the voice of Fu asked from behind me, I glared over my shoulder at him to find him sitting cross legged in the air and just observing me with that small smile still on his face.
It took all my self control not to try and slice him in half with a Destructo Disk. 'Fuck, what a time to not fucking have something to use as containment for the Mafuba!' I growled internally. But, I never thought someone like this would fucking pop up this early! Hell, I never expected to ever run into this guy!
"What the hell do you want Fu?" I snarled, my four hands curling into tight fists as my mind raced to come up with a plan? Maybe try the Electric Kamehameha I'd been working on? Unlikely it would do much damage but the electricity may stun him long enough for me to do something...?
"Oh, so you know me?" his eyes positively gleamed, "Those precognitive vision you inherited from Bardock must really be something!"
...What the hell is he on about?
"You know, when I put those little thoughts in Kami's head to bring you to life with the Dragon Balls I had no idea things would spiral this much!" he clapped his hands excitedly as he beamed at me, "It never occurred to me that you could possibly inherit Bardock's ability to see into the future, Goku never did after all."
..Why the fuck does he think I got those? Did father even get those in the Super timeline? No wait, backtrack, did he just say he's the reason Kami made that wish to Shenron and brought me to life?
"I expected you to change the timeline up a bit, after all two Goku's would surely make things a party," Fu continued on, unperturbed by my racing thoughts, "But this, this is beyond my wildest expectations. The amount of Time Break Energy I got thanks to you in the passed few weeks has been amazing and the show you've given to me watch has just been superb!"
"You're the reason I'm alive?" I asked, scowling at him.
"Hm? Why yes I am," Fu confirmed happily, before waving his hand, "Though, no need to thank me. You've payed off whatever debt you could have possible gotten from that ten times over easily with the amount of energy your actions created by completely throwing the rails of this timeline completely off the track."
As much as I wanted to tell him to slit his throat, I couldn't deny that I was grateful now for this life. doesn't mean I'm not going to show him what oblivion tastes like.
"Whatever, just tell me what you want." I demanded, my hands twitching with the urge to start flinging ki blasts his way.
"Eh, you don't get it?" Fu looked at me like I was stupid before shrugging his shoulders and sighing, "It's simple really. Just look at all the changes you managed to make this early in the timeline, it got me thinking, just what kind of changes could you accomplish if I dropped you off in another timeline later down the line, like during the fight with Frieza or even with Cell, think of the possibilities!"
"Are you fucking crazy!?" I gaped at him, "Fuck off, no seriously! I'll get my ass obliterated by the Time Patrol."
"Nah don't worry about this sticks in the mud," Fu laughed, waving my concerns off as if they didn't have an army of races at their beck and call, an army filled with Frieza Race, Super Saiyans and who knows what else, "See, I spent a few years during the month or so you've been alive sneaking in to Conton City and I managed sneakily hide a bunch of time scrolls in the the shadows of this ones history. Any changes made will be hidden thanks to the crazy stuff you've caused in this timeline."
..What? A few years during the last month? And hid them in the shadow of this timeline? I don't get it at all. Like maybe the same way a brighter light would hide a lower one beneath or behind it maybe? Like so bright it drew all the attention and the others couldn't be noticed due to it?
Wait, that doesn't fucking matter. "Fuck off!" I rejected everything he was saying, way stronger than me or not, this fucking shithead isn't telling me what to do, "I don't want to deal with any of that shit! All I need to do now is learn from the Yardrat's and I can go back to Earth and relax all I want!"
"Laaaaame, this'll be way more fun!" Fu rejected my rejection with a sing-song tone.
"Eat shit and die!" I roared lifting my four arms into the air above me. Golden light swirled together and darkened into a crackling black sphere dancing with green lightning. With a buzzing sound, the sphere grew to titanic proportions as big as a mountain, and then I filled it with more ki, and more, and more and more and more and more and more! I compressed and emptied my entire reserve of Super Saiyan enhanced ki over and over again until I was holding a massive roiling ki sphere of death that was probably approaching the size of a town, it was so big it made me and Fu both look like little ant-like specks in comparison, "Death Bomb!" I shouted as I threw it towards him. Who fucking needs people to share their energy when I have infinite of it myself?
But just as soon as I threw it, the titanic black sphere of death disappeared from existence in the blink of an eye, "...You've got to be fucking kidding me." I deadpanned. I wasn't even shocked really, this dude is just that bullshit.
Fu laughed, his eyes glowing, "Well it's a good thing I can teleport things to Time Rifts, that one might have actually hurt if I didn't," he noted as he began to stand from his cross legged sitting position and in one smooth motion unsheathed the sword hanging from the small of his back, "I'm afraid though Kakarot, your compliance isn't really a factor."
He disappeared from my vision to quickly for me to track and before I could even think to defend myself pain assaulted me across the entirety of my body. With a glint of shining silver steel my left arm alongside the two sprouting from my shoulder blades were severed clean off, quickly followed by my legs before an instant later what felt like the force of a dozen planets crashed into my chest and for the third time in minutes my organs were shredded and my crushed.
All I could do was roar in agony as I felt myself shooting through the air once again. Something shook heavily around me a moment later and I felt solid ground underneath my back for the first time since this began.
"Kakarot!" I heard Bulma's voice scream in terror.
Something surged within me and my rage grew to new heights, I opened up my eyes to find Fu pinning me to the bottom a crater on the island the Tree of Might was planted on, one foot planted on my chest keeping me down while the he held my arm tightly between his own two and slipped a familiar silver ring onto my middle finger, where it immediately tightened and fastened around my skin.
I had no limbs to attack back with. But that didn't fucking matter. This shit head made my Bulma scream like that, made her sound so scared He's fucking DEAD! Roaring, I pulled on the golden radiance within me more, I needed more! I dragged all I could, not just into my aura and ki but into my body itself! My brain, my eyes, my muscles, my hair.
Everything was used as a conduit to bring out more power. My aura exploded into existence and I compressed and directed it blasting it up at him with all the power I could muster in the form of a raging hurricane of golden power dancing with lightning!
I saw him wince as a cut opened up on his cheek, "Let me explain how this will work," he began, talking over my howling energy and ignoring the slices that were opening up all over his body, "This is a Time Ring, but I've modified it a bit using magic. When I feel like it, it will take you to specific timelines I've loaded the coordinates in and once there you won't be able to return to this timeline unless you've done something significantly impressive that will change the course of history like you've done here in this time." he explained.
I was only listening with half an ear however. Both because of the concentration I was focusing into using my super saiyan power to attack...ad because I felt it as the mind numbing pain of my body lessened and my limbs grew back!
As he finished, I thrust my newly regrown left arm up, crimson ki glittering dangerously and unleashing a full powered energy blast. But just as I did, Fu smiled down at me and suddenly disappeared as if he was never there at all allowing my beam to shot up through the air and hit nothing at all.
"Fuck.." I groaned, cutting my aura off and slumping back into the crater I found myself in.
"Kakarot, are you okay!?" Bulma jumped into the crater, Dende rushing in behind her a terrified look on his small face.
My vision swam. 'I...I...should give him some more fruit so he's stronger and can protect himself better...' I thought blearily. I felt like I was going to pass out. "I'm fi-" I made to assure them both regardless of how I felt, but as I was mid reply a gentle bell-like chiming sound came from my right hand and I looked down to see the Time Ring on my middle finger beginning to glow.
"..You've got to be fucking kidding me." I groaned, exhausted and defeated all at once.
Kakarot Battle Power: 120,632,689
Probably gonna get some backlash from this chapter, but oh well. This chapter reveals how Kakarot came into existence in the first place without the Time Patrol noticing and fixing things. A series of coinciding events and Fu being the chaotic imp he is.
Now, before anyone claims otherwise, this was not something done because Kakarot was too powerful, this was planned since the beginning and broadens out into the larger story. Fu basically tossed a stone into a pond, expecting to get some ripples, he was not at all expecting of Kakarot to have meta knowledge and doesn't know he does either, as such, when he got a 'wave' instead of a ripple in the water, he decided to go fish out the stone he tossed and do it in another 'pond'. If Kakarot didn't cheat so blatantly and outrageously, Fu probably would never really spare him anything beyond a glance and never bother him.
Anyway, again, shameless Pa-atreon plug. I've got one, go by the same username on there, easy to find and all that jazz. Support me if you want, it'd be swell, but don't feel pressured lads and ladies, I'll be uploading my stuff outside it regardless and not keeping it all behind a paywall or anything like that.
