Veil Of Greed: Hunt For The Numbers!

Chapter 34: GLOB

Date: April 2nd, 2023

"Damn it! We have to kill him or he'll kill us.. This is bad but at least, Pmurt Nedib isn't here to kill everyone this time for once. Still, Jake is not himself. I can only imagine how strong he is now.." "I said kill me! I want a dangerous adventure!" "Do you all have to deal with this all the time?" "Not always but too often, Keough." "THIS IS RIDICULOUS! AND I THOUGHT BEERUS WAS RIDICULOUS!" "Hey, can we get to the fighting already? I'm so hyped! I want to fight! Let's go!" "Oh yeah! Let's flow!" "Everyone.. Can you please tone it down. It's really not my vibe to hear so much at such a volume. My ear jacks are sensitive sometimes!" Jake gets serious. "If you won't attack first, then I will!" He forms one of his limbs into fists and starts pounding us all with them. It does no damage to some of us like myself but Anna is not enjoying it. "Ow! Ow! Ow! Stop pounding me! Rocket Arrow Express and Dreadnought, attack!" The trains do no damage to Jake. "Ugh! Do they seriously have to run you over completely? Do I have to blast you myself just to get all of this over with? It's really annoying!" "Anna! You gotta fight harder!" "Says you, Yuma! Come on, let's defeat him already!" "Now that's the spirit! I'm so pumped! Let's go already!" Tsunade stops Jake from pounding us with one of his fists while Goku takes care of the other. "Aww man! This isn't fair! Fine! Let me have it! Let this be the most dangerous adventure ever for me!" "Jake! Snap out of it, you don't have to go this far to have a dangerous adventure!" "I'm with Finn on this. You could travel through time, face a giant robot or something, get trapped in a video game, get attacked by flying books, or something else. There are so many universes that they number beyond infinity. There are so many dangerous adventures you can go on without literally killing people or making them kill you. I have seen so many universes." "No way! I refuse!"

Jake starts attacking us a lot harder with ALL 4 of his limbs: "Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" Marceline gets annoyed at this: "Jake! That's enough! Stop it!" "No way, Marceline!" "*hiss* Then I'll just have to take matters into my own hands, my friend!" She proceeds to dodge his limbs as she flies around as a bat and transforms back in other to land on top of Jake's head. As she bashes his head with her axe guitar, she begins singing and strumming even as the rest of us try to dodge or attack Jake. "Jake, my friend. Why do you think you have to kill us in order to go on a dangerous adventure? What will it take for you to realize that this isn't okay? What will it take for you to realize that there are other ways to go on dangerous adventures? You're willing to hurt your friends to go on a dangerous adventure. What has become of you, my friend Jake? Can't you see what you're doing isn't okay or do I have to spell it out to you. I'll keep bashing your head until you get it through your thick head that this isn't right. *starts bashing harder* Snap out of it, this isn't you. You're willing to abandon your bonds and your life just to have a dangerous adventure. It doesn't have to be this way. Forget the dangerous adventures. If we go through with this, you'll never see us, your friends again. Your friends again. I'll bash you for as long as it takes for you to see what I'm trying to tell you. Let go of this want for danger, danger is going to come for you someday no matter what you do. Let it go. Let it go unless you want me to keep bashing your head with my guitar. Please let it go. Jake, I don't want to hurt you and you don't want to hurt us. Please be you again.." Marceline continues to bash Jake's head until he groans: "Ow! Ow! Okay, I'll stop!" And Jake returns to normal. At this point, I just let the number cards(yes, there's now more of them apparently) sit there on the ground.

"Did the power of music and head bashing just seriously prove to be powerful enough to stop a number possession? Jake's still present kindness in his words was the only way that could have worked out. Now. *stares at the numbers on the ground* Are you just going to lay there or you going to hop into someone's body again. I'm ready for whatever you throw at me. Come try me. I'm not even going to touch you yet. Go on, possess someone else. We're waiting." And they entered someone else. Bulma yells at me: "You fool! Now look at what you've done! Now, someone else is possessed!" "Don't blame me, they would have done that if I said that or not." "Oh really?!" "Numbers don't need permission to cause chaos!" Goku starts laughing and is now wearing a gray outfit. "Okay, that's a new one. You don't see someone get possessed by a number in a universe they're not even from. Unless something really dumb or miraculous happens, we're going to die if we can't get backup here." "Hello, everyone! I'm Goku Gray! And I'm going to fight all of you to the death! No holding back and no grudges, okay?!" "Goku literally has next to none truly selfish desires. I'm surprised he isn't obsessed with food considering that's more selfish than wanting to fight everyone here. But what's with the gray? That's so random. I guess the numbers wanted to spoof Goku Black because of course they did. Why not?" "Food?! Did somebody say food?! Hmm.. I don't know what to do. All of you look fun or hard to fight but you also look absolutely delicious! I'm so hungry. I'll just eat you! That settles it." "Y'all, this really ain't right. I don't want to be eaten!" "Neither do I! Goku, snap out of it! Please! I'm not your duel fuel! Or your tomarrot!" "What the hell is a tomarrot? Planet Druidia has no such thing!" "Seriously! This is serious! Our ally wants to eat us. This is beyond anything I have ever seen as Hokage!" "I wish Sado were here to make sweets right now.." "I wish I was on Earth to get food for Goku!"

Goku charges at Anna with his mouth open and his fists ready to go. "You must taste delicious! I'm so hungry!" I facepalm and sweat drop before turning pure white in mortification and crashing to the ground. Right as Goku repels everyone with ease after going Ultra Instinct but with an extra kick from the numbers, I manage to recover just in time. Right as he is about to beat up Anna and eat her, I use Quantum Leap to teleport Goku to a literal dimension of food. Finn looks on in confusion: "What did you just do to him?!" "I teleported him to a food dimension. There's no one there to fight but everything is made out of food. Spaghetti black holes, chocolate planets, pizza meteors, asteroid belt grapes, red giant star cherries, white dwarf star coconut, and more. Not even a number possessed Saiyan can eat everything in that universe." And then, Goku comes back by using Instant Transmission while burping loudly: "Thanks for that! That universe was delicious! Now I can just fight all of you and save your bodies for a small snack!" "..Even that failed.. He somehow ate that whole universe.. We'll need so many comrades to help us. Yep, we're in serious danger here. This really isn't good at all. I know I certainly don't stand a chance against Goku. He is one of the fighters I know I can't win against for certain." But then, Goku starts expanding like a balloon. I comment again: "So, he ate the entire food universe and is now being inflated big and round. I'm sure he'll quickly outpace being 69 times his normal size." "Ah! I'm so full! I've never been so full in my life! Mmm! Mmm! ..Why are all of you getting so small? What's happening to me?!" "Even the famously bottomless stomachs of Saiyans are no match for a universe full of delicious food. Good to know. I have a feeling that this is going to turn out the exact same way it did for the Popcorn Monster. It's only a matter of time now." And just as I thought, Goku became very big. I wasn't expecting the farting that didn't slow his rate of expansion though.

But after he suddenly stopped farting, his body started sounding like it was going to explode. But before he was about to detonate for real, he poofed away somehow and came back 5 seconds later feeling tired, confused, and deflated with the numbers on the ground next to him. "Uhh, can somebody explained what just happened to me?" "*unison* You don't want to know." And then, the numbers entered me. But I had to use the toilet really bad so it became my "obsession", leading me to find the nearest bathroom frantically instead of anything else. That would have happened without the number possession though to be honest. I ended up peeing so hard that the numbers came out of me with my urine. Gross but at least the numbers are literally immune to lava, water, time, space, and literally anything else you can think of. They cannot burn or get wet. I think my body rejected the numbers by peeing them out because numbers literally can't possess me. I sigh as the numbers go enter somebody else. "Yep, this is exactly the kind of crap that would happen in a fanfic that so happens to depict this universe, this timeline at this particular time aka one of my own stories. Veil Of Greed: Hunt For The Numbers!. in particular. The sheer absurdity of this proves that for certain. I teleport back to the others and see what has happened this time. Anna has become an explosive train titan. And no one, even the restored Goku is doing any damage. There's only one thing that can damage her in her current state. My sword. I pull out my sword and run towards her: "Everyone, get back! I think I can beat her with my sword. And then, she'll go back to normal. Also, why is her form covered in love hearts?" They all back away except Finn. "Let me help you, my Finn Sword and I can do this with you." "But your sword hasn't done any damage to her. Have you even tried cutting her?" "Hey! I heard that! Just give you your love, Yuma! YUMA! LET ME BECOME YOUR TRAIN!" "Anna! I'm in love with Katori, okay?!" "KATORI?! YUMA, HOW DARE YOU REJECT ME?! IM GOING TO BLAST YOU FOR THIS!" Finn tries cutting Anna but nothing happens. "Okay, that's so lame. If this is truly a coherent scene, Finn's main character importance should be doing something right about now."

Finn tries again and manages to slice Anna in half. "NOOOOOO! HOW COULD YOU RUIN MY PRECIOUS FORM?! I WAS ONE WITH MY TRAINS AND NOW, YOU'VE RUINED IT!" "Yep, being a main character does give you things like that. Extreme luck, the ability to almost always win, everything. Congrats, Finn. You partially defeated Anna. Now, it's my turn. I will show you the power of a side character who has grown so much stronger in the past year! Haaaaaaaaaa! Continuous Drawing Devastation: 20! Take this!" My attack cuts through much of the upper half of Anna. The others attack the exposed weak points through that and after 5 minutes, we win and Anna returns to normal, unharmed, no longer possessed, back to her usual form. "What just happened to me? I think I was possessed but that didn't even happen when I dueled Yuma with my own number card.." And before we know it, someone else is possessed by a number. That would be Zexal/Yuma.. How did I know? Well, he's not talking or moving for some reason. "Is that guy okay?" "Finn, he's possessed by numbers but I don't think they will last long considering Yuma has never been possessed by one even though he has used several numbers whose identities were shaped by people's dark desires without consequences." And I was right. "Aww man, I don't feel so good! Astral, why didn't you tell me I could feel so unwell while we're merged?!" Yuma ended up throwing them up and they possessed Tsunade instead. I curse under my breath. "Tsunade possessed? We're in quite a bit of trouble.. Oh great, she's going to be the absolutely dangerous, extreme, and chaotic version of a drunk Alkali who wants more to drink." "DAMN IT! I WANT SAKE! IF NO ONE GIVES ME SAKE, I'LL DESTROY THINGS! AND I WANT TO GAMBLE, WHERE CAN I GAMBLE AROUND HERE?!" "I'm not sure if getting her sake would help or worsen things... Okay.. I think it would worsen things now that I really give it a second thought."

Bulma agrees. "I don't think drinking while possessed will end well for anyone." "GIVE ME SAKE!" "I could create some for her but she'd only keep wanting more and eventually, her desire and rage will be truly enormous. So enormous that she will keep demanding more and more until there's no one who can give her sake fast enough to satisfy her." "That means we can fight her, right?!" "Yes, Goku. We kinda have to. At least she isn't actually drunk or else, again things would be worse. A lot worse actually." Goku takes Tsunade's state seriously and immediately transforms into Perfected Ultra Instinct. "Her power level is enormous now! I can't wait to fight!" All it took was one punch from Goku to defeat her.. Tsunade became completely uncoordinated due to her want of sake, allowing Goku to punch her in a weak spot. "What the hell was that? Not even the Swartz is powerful enough to pull that off!" And then Tsunade recovers with the numbers now out of her. "I'm not going to ask what just happened to me. I assume I was possessed by those numbers too." And then I noticed something. "Okay, where did Applejack go? I have a bad feeling about this." We quickly found her swinging around her lasso and yelling: "Come on y'all! Let's all be honest and hard working folk!" "Who the hell is she talking to? Even Dark Helmet was more rational than this. At least he knew who he was talking to." "Isn't she possessed by those number card things?" "Good observation, Goku but you forgot how dangerous they are, didn't you?" "Heh. Yeah. You got me." Applejack turns to us: "Did y'all just lie to each other? We have to be honest so for lying, I'm gonna teach y'all a lesson!" She begins using her lasso to attack all of us while having the infamous number aura surround her just like with literally everyone else who has possessed except for me and Yuma since we didn't really get possessed at all. However, this fight doesn't last long because some of us are too fast even for her under the control of the numbers. Me, Goku, and Tsunade quickly get past her lassoing and manage to knock her out mere seconds later.

She woke back up a minute later: "What the?! I just had the weirdest dream.. I thought everyone around me was lying when they were not.." As the numbers possessed someone else, Finn says: "That was no dream. That really happened. But it's okay now, you're no longer like that." "I'm sorry for troubling y'all like that then. But why am I sensing that sinister energy all over again?" Bulma runs at us while yelling: "VEGETA! BEERUS! I KNOW WHAT YOU DID! STOP DISGUISING YOURSELVES AND FACE ME WITH YOUR REAL FACES! IF YOU DONT, I WILL POUND YOU AND EVERYONE ELSE AROUND HERE INTO THE DIRT! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!" "Bulma! Neither of them are here! They're in that other world helping fight that war!" "STOP COVERING FOR THEM, GOKU! HAVE YOU NO SHAME AT ALL?! THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS ADMIT THAT YOU'RE HELPING THEM HIDE!" "But I'm not, Bulma! Honest! I'm not lying! I have no idea where they are exactly but they aren't here!" "STOP MAKING LIES TO KEEP THEM SAFE FROM MY RAGE, GOKU! MAYBE YOU'RE BEERUS IN SECRET! MAYBE YOU'RE JUST HIM IN A GOKU COSTUME JUST LIKE THE ONE HE WORE OF SOMEONE ELSE!" She then proceeds to hit Goku hard with "strong and scary woman character" powers combined with the power of the numbers. A deadly combination many dudes in DBAU couldn't withstand. After Goku is beat up and lies on the ground dazed and beaten(he ate a Senzu bean to recover later), Bulma glares at the rest of us in "Berserk Bulma" state. She yells at me next: "YOU! DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE BEERUS WHO IS DISGUISED AS SOMEONE WHO IS KNOWN FOR HIDING THEIR IDENTITY! IT'S THE PERFECT DISGUISE!" She proceeds to try to beat me up. Emphasis on try because apparently, I'm too gay or something to be affected by "strong and scary woman character" powers and my armor truly is extremely good.

"If I were Beerus, I would be on the ground reverted to his form by now. I'm not so what does that tell you, Bulma? My turn. We need to get you get to normal, to the intelligent and strong woman who only gets angry when she feels it's absolutely necessary. The inventor of many things, a truly brilliant person." After 20 minutes of fighting, Bulma falls unconscious from exhaustion, freeing her of the numbers. She woke up just in time for another possession to occur. "What the?! I remember seeing Applejack regain consciousness but then nothing besides feelings of intense rage I can't put my finger on the source of." But before any of us could say anything, Earphone Jack gained that malevolent aura. I had no idea what it was going to do to her personality. And then, she just kind of snapped: "ALL OF YOU ARE SO LOUD! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! SINCE YOU WON'T QUIET IT DOWN, I'M GOING TO DESTROY ALL OF YOU FOR GOOD!" She doesn't even need to plug her ear jacks into the ground to create vibrations anymore. No one has ever seen Earphone Jack so angry until now. She's one of the last heroes who'd ever get angry at anyone. Now, her vibrations are constant and far stronger than ever not to mention extremely loud. "Damn it! Now this is a serious problem! What the hell are we doing to do? Even if I mastered my elemental nature, it wouldn't help us at all, it would only make things worse!" Marceline starts playing her axe guitar again. I know exactly what she's implying. I put away my sword and pull out my guitar. Jake randomly has drums he can play. BMO, one of his and Finn's friends who is a walking and talking 90s style handheld game console walks over to Finn, ignoring Earphone Jack's supersonic sound rage. And Finn starts using him like a piano with his permission. A fusion of styles begins being heard. Death Metal from me, pop style piano from BMO and Finn, old rap style drums from Jake, and rock bass from Marceline.

I then begin screaming: "Fight the power of sound with your own sound. We're going to free you from this possession, Earphone Jack! We're going to free you! Break you from what binds you to a irrational state of rage and desire for destruction! Cant you see that all your rationality is gone now and replaced with negative emotion? Can't you see what's going on within yourself! Break free of if or we're break you free of it ourselves. Reach into the depths of heart and see why you're here, what you're fighting for, and what you care about! Remember everything about yourself, see that you're not you right now. Let everything you feel come out at once. Let it all out so you can be free from the shackles of the burden of overwhelming negative feelings. It's going to be okay, just remember who your friends are. We don't want to fight you. We want to save you from this possession that has completely taken hold of you. Fight it, resist it. This isn't you and you know that's true. Reach inside you and see what we're trying to show and tell you." We all stop performing music as Earphone Jack's vibrations stop while she puts her hands on her forehead like her mind is split in two with both sides fighting for control. After some time, she defeats the number possession and returns to her true self. "Thank you all for helping me overcome what took control over me completely. I owe all of you an apology for what I did." None of us could reply as Keough was possessed next and returned to the persona and form he had under the control of the Dark Lord. "Hatred! Hatred! None of you possess enough hatred, to be strong is to hate! Hatred is the only thing that truly matters in this world and all other worlds! The Dark Lord will be revived once I return to my world all over again but for now, I'm going to turn this world into a monster filled nightmare and all of you will be the first to die! It's clear that me that you will not stand with me or the Dark Lord in what we want to accomplish so I'm going to have to eliminate all of you right here and now!"

I step forward in front of the others: "I'm no main character but as a knight like you, I want you to face me first, try to kill me, blah blah blah." "A knight you say? As the Dark Lord's dark knight, I can't say no to a fight with someone like you! After all, having more knights embrace hatred will please the Dark Lord! Very well, we will fight! Just you and me! Prepare to perish or embrace hatred!" I should also note that Keough has become a Lord Knight since he was brought back from Link VRAINS along with Takius and Iruga. That was a more recent development so this fight is going to be difficult. We begin fighting each other, our swordplay starts out evenly matched but it is Keough who tried to change that. "Magnum Break!" His attack doesn't do much damage and was a waste of time. "You'll have to do better than that. It seems you have forgotten who I am. Interesting. Anyway, let me show you some damage! Darkeye Slash!" I perform the jump slash style attack but Keough parries it: "Parry! Aura Blade! Concentration! Tension Relax!" Damn it, he went from swordsman to Lord Knight moves just like that already. He's going all in off the bat. I better be careful. Those 4 skills are a powerful combination, one of them blocks some attacks for instance. But I'm not going to hold back. "Keough! I'm not going to draw out this fight! Give me your best attacks! Try to kill me first! Come at me, I'm not going to hold back any longer!" "You asked for it. Prepare to give into hatred! I will leave you on the brink of death the same way the Abysmal Knight did to me so long ago! Joint Beat! Joint Beat! Joint Beat! Magnum Break! Bash! Bash! Bash! Study Strike! Vanguard Force! Lions Roar! Joint Beat!" "Haaaaaaaaa! Continuous Great Infernal Tornado Slash: 8! Take this! This is my limit as it is now! Feel my strength!" Our attacks clash but mine ultimately overpower his after we struggled to beat each other for a solid 2 minutes. He would have lost faster if it weren't for the numbers giving him more strength as they continued to possess him.

Upon his defeat, he is sent flying and the numbers leave him immediately and possess Bubblegum. Keough doesn't lose consciousness, he just drinks a healing potion and silently gets back up as Bubblegum becomes a pure candy elemental but corrupted by number possession. She starts trying to turn all of us into candy people: "Everything must become candy or else be destroyed!" "Woah woah! Princess! What are you doing?!" We're all just dodging everything she throws at us at the moment. "Do you have something to say to me, FINN?! Say it again! Tell me exactly how you feel!" "Princess, none of us want to be turned into candy people." "That's absurd! Everyone wants to turn into candy people! Now, stand still so I can turn you into a candy person to start the expansion of the Candy Kingdom! And soon, I will take over and destroy Gumbaldia as well so it's candy people become MY candy people! Mine! All I have to do is test the likes of you to see if my plan will work out perfectly! I know it will! Now hold still so I can turn you into a candy person! Please!" "No can do, princess. Not everyone wants to be like your subjects. No offense but we all like our bodies the way they are now." "Fine then! I have no choice but to destroy all of you since none of you are interested in letting me turn you into candy people as an experiment in the name of my ultimate plan!" She starts attacking all of us with her candy powers but with a kick of malevolent power from the numbers of course. "Damn it! This is bad! Really bad! We better do something about this and fast!" "Hey Jake!" "What is it, Finn?" "Why don't we just get all the candy people to show they're perfectly happy with no one else being candy people as well besides those who live in Gumbaldia?!" "That's a great idea!" The two run off. Bubblegum is not pleased and begins to chase after them back in the direction of the Candy Kingdom. I see the spirit of the Lich closely following her and create a jar with my imagination just as Lemongrab gets in the way of Bubblegum. "Don't you forget about me! As the Earl, I must tell you to cease this UNACCEPTABLE plan of yours immediately!

"Don't tell me what to do, Lemongrab!" "Princess, this behavior is unacceptable! UNACCEPTABLE! LET THEM GO NOOOOOOOOOW," "I said don't tell me what to do! Turn to candy and become happier, Lemongrab!" Just as the Lich is about to possess the already possessed Bubblegum, I perform a technique with the jar I created. As this happened, the others also got in the way of Bubblegum with Goku making her focus on him by dodging everything with ease. Once I finish the technique, I yell: "EVIL CONTAINMENT WAVE!" It works so much better on spirits. The Lich's spirit which showed back up for some reason is instantly sucked into the jar I created. I even created the seal needed to seal the Lich in it for good. I closed the top of it shut before putting the seal on and putting the jar away in my ender pouch. The Lich shouldn't be bothering us again anytime soon. I'm glad I learned the Evil Containment Wave. Learning it is easy. All you have to do is watch someone else do it before you do it yourself. I then joined the others in stalling Bubblegum. For 10 minutes longer, we kept her busy as all of us, even Lone Starr were able to dodge every attempt she made of turning any of us into candy which was literally the bulk of her attacks that entire time. That's when Finn and Jake returned with pretty much every resident of the Candy Kingdom. Bubblegum stops attacking us and glares at Finn and Jake: "WHY HAVE YOU BROUGHT MY CANDY PEOPLE INTO THIS?!" Finn does a defensive pose: "Woah! You have it so wrong, princess! We told them of how you were acting and your possession. They're worried about you! Even Cinnamon Bun is here!" Cinnamon Bun runs to Bubblegum: "Princess! You mustn't do what you are planning to do! Look at us, your candy people! Don't you see how happy we are?"

Bubblegum doesn't care and begins attacking everyone until Prismo himself intervenes and stops time. "Okay, I don't typically directly interfere with the affairs of this world unless someone wishes for me to. But this is gone on far enough. Your power is growing exponentially, Bubblegum so I'm going to stop this. I use my own wish to summon a card I learned of from a card game called Defusion and use its power to split you from the numbers. That's all, I'm going back to my place to chill now." Bubblegum is freed of the numbers as soon as time resumes after Prismo leaves. "..What have I done? I tried to hurt all of you.. I'm so sorry!" No one got the chance to answer, to forgive her as she didn't manage to really hurt anyone. We were all happy to see her back to normal. I was surprised at Prismo's appearance and intervention of course. The reason we couldn't speak was because Lone Starr became possessed by the numbers. The candy people fled immediately after feeling the combination of the Swartz and the number card energies. Bubblegum ran after them to go help console them in this situation. "1 million space bucks! Where can I find one million space bucks?! Someone, please tell me how I can pay Pizza Da Hutt! I need to know! Wait, why is there no one around me? All I see are huge money sculptures! Is this Yogurt's doing? Oh well, there's more than 1 million space bucks here!" He proceeds to pick up Goku somehow successfully: "This one has gotta have 1 million space bucks! This is perfect! I'm going to be so rich! Woohoo!" "Hey, put me down! I'm not your universe's currency!" "Did this space bucks sculpture just talk?! I wish we had taken the million space bucks when we had the chance! But hey, the search for more money is over! I must be surrounded by at least 5 million space bucks now! Barf is going to be so happy! We won't need to keep filming the next Spaceballs movie! It's over! It's over! Roll the end credits for Spaceballs 2: The Search For More Money now, film crew!" The credits don't start playing.

Instead, Bulma punches alone Starr in the face! "Ow! Did I just get attacked by 800,000 space bucks?!" "I'm not space bucks! I'm Bulma!" "So these talking space buck sculptures don't like me and can talk? Is Dark Helmet responsible for this? Oh well! Guess I have to handle them carefully before I break them apart to deliver some of them to Pizza! And then, I'll keep the majority of them and be so stinking rich! Oh yeah!" Tsunade punches him too but it doesn't affect him. In fact, all of us try to attack him but nothing works. He just thinks we're living space bucks sculptures and that's it to us as far as he believes. But then, we start fighting him with all of our might. He finally gets angry: "How dare you space buck sculptures attack me and deal me damage?! That's not fair! You aren't supposed to be alive so I will just have to break all of apart so I can turn you in to pay Pizza and buy so many expensive things! Barf and I are going to be loaded and set for life! And I'm sure my wife Vespa will love everything I'm going to get her no matter how useless most of it actually is! And you just want to resist me?! *pulls out Swartz stick* The power of the Swartz will allow me to prevail against all of you! I will break you down into the many bills each of you are composed of! And you want stop me!" But he was unable to use the Swartz stick because Goku took it from him after somehow breaking free of his hold. Lone Starr was speechless and stopped moving so we all attacked him at once for an hour on end until he finally collapsed and the numbers left his body due to his defeat. He's healed because of this and wakes up looking frightened, unable to speak. That's because Marceline was possessed by the numbers next. This turned her into the terrifying demon queen form Finn and Jake had to help free her actual body from. "I must consume all of your souls! Souls! Give me your souls! I must consume them all!" "Damn it! This is really bad! That form combined with the numbers is a truly horrifying combination. We can't beat this on our own. We have to fuse again or call for help or something!"

My fellow Akatsuki members appear all at once and join in on the fight. This allows us to defeat Marceline in an instant. Even she in that form while possessed by numbers couldn't stand a chance against everyone's combined full power. Nagato even used the same move he once used to destroy Konoha against Marceline. With her defeated, the numbers were on the ground again and she woke up. "Woah, that was pretty weird. I think you all saved me from what my DAD passed onto me, my demon form. That was not fun." I start hearing some music: "Hold that thought. Why do I hear boss music and why aren't the numbers trying to actively possess someone right now? I know that boss music.. It's the floor boss music from Sword Art Online: Integral Factor.. But why here and now of all places throughout space-time?" The others also hear it. Konan speaks: "An enormous power is approaching. Be careful, it's more powerful than even Kurama at full strength.." Suddenly, the sky above us breaks apart, revealing GLOB, a huge being of chaos and destruction. But the creature looked different.. Like GLOB fused with nearly all villains that have existed in the universe we're in along with the psychotic personality changes that have happened as well as Betty. Worse of all, the numbers enter GLOB, causing the creature to become even more powerful. "Damn it. There's no way in hell we can defeat THAT on our own!" "Oh come on! We have to in order for this to be a better plotline!" "Deadpool, not now!" "Oh come on, I wanna fight this creature already! Let's go!" "Goku, all of you, calm yourselves. We mustn't allow ourselves to go through unnecessary suffering to defeat this enemy. We will make this enemy know pain but first, we need a lot more of our comrades to stand a chance. This being is even stronger than the Ōtsutsuki at this point, even stronger than the Ten Tails at full power as well. Not even my Rinnegan will be nearly enough to defeat this enemy of ours." Orochimaru grins: "I've already contacted the others. I imagine many of them will be here soon. We just have to remain patient. I wonder how interesting this battle is going to be. I will analyze everything as part of my experiments."

"Wait, how many allies do you guys have? Are we going to seriously stand here while waiting for them?!" "Yeah, what Jake said!" "Finn, Jake, we must be patient with these people!" "*unison* Fiiiiine, *sigh*" Right as they say that, most of our comrades show up at once. Tsunade yells: "What the hell are all of you doing here?! We have a war to win as well, remember?! As Hokage, I find this reckless!" Acheron replies: "Don't worry, time has been temporarily stopped for that entire universe. We have all the time we need to help." Dr. Bonesbane blankly adds: "Oh yeah. A lot of us helped with that such as myself." Kaito smirks: "Thanks to upgrades to my Photon Transformation, I was able to help as well." And so, the fight officially began. Before it did, GLOB was held back by a sense of curiosity or something like that. Barla was the one who launched the first attack, provoking GLOB. "Hell yeah! Let's blow you up and more all nice and violently!" GLOB makes roaring sounds and shows no interest in consuming anything unlike the last time they showed up in the Land of Ooo we're in. Instead, they begin attacking us but our forces are so numerous that any damage wouldn't become significant to any individual for a while. In the meantime, I focused on attacking with all my might despite the fact that we just lost Bray. We aren't going to quit. And I know I won't even though my despair is eating me from the inside more and more every time I think about it. The memories and the pain are so fresh and they will haunt my soul for such a long time. But I have to set that despair aside and fight with everything I got without fail. Even if I die here, I know I'll be brought back and be able to fight again. There's no telling just how hard this battle against GLOB really is going to be. I draw my sword and put one of my daggers in my left hand. It's about time I use the power of my slashes along with the power of that dangerous substance as well. I should dual wield my sword and one of my daggers more often.

Whenever I slashed with my sword, I followed it up with a quick dagger stab unless I was doing a special attack. In which case, I focused on that special attack before a barrage of quick stabs and return to the switch up technique all over again. "Let's go! No hesitation! Haaaaa! Drawing Devastation! Anatomical Disruption! Great Infernal Tornado Slash!" Constantly, it was the same thing over and over until I ran out of HP bananas to help with my exhaustion and injuries and mana to allow me to help with my exhaustion and injuries via basic healing spells some other times despite eating all the MP candies I had on my person. No one could provide me with more of either. I was kind of on my own in that matter. This all happened within 10 minutes of me attacking as much as I could with my best attacks and holding nothing back. "Damn it! I can't fight anymore or I'll die! If I die, I will distract others from attacking with an emphasis on defense and dps! Crap! Ugh, I might as well wait it out after I exhaust my left eye for the day.." And so, I used Artist's Eye to give myself a little more time to fight. I have been attacking the same part of GLOB this entire time. And with the little extra time, I was able to actually finish making a small dent in GLOB. If that doesn't tell you how strong our foe is, I don't know what will. Dominic sees me in my sad state and stops fighting temporarily to help me: "Swiftdrawer! You're out, already?! What a nap causation! I'm just going to get you away from GLOB because none of us can stop to REALLY help you as if your attacks didn't state that was obvious. No big deal that you'll have to sit out for the rest of this battle." "Yeah, it's actually not the end of the world if I can't help any longer. I'll be okay, just defeat this foe already, all of you!" "I knew you would say that. You can't even move on your own anymore. At least you're not bleeding. I'm teleporting you away to a safe place you can watch the rest of this battle from closely. See you after we win. Even I have confidence we'll win. What a nap causation, confidence can be so blinding sometimes."

He then teleports me to a close location that's far enough away to where GLOB won't target me again in any attacks anytime soon. Basically, I get to just use selective hearing in addition to the powers of TV shows for absolutely no reason to listen and focus in on particular parts of the battle with different individuals in a way that feels random but also logical to me at the same exact time. First up is with a lot of knights and other sword users. Mel yells: "Come on, everyone! I saw what Swiftdrawer just did! We can do the same thing but at a much larger scale! Come on! Give it all you got!" Roan replies: "This is for Yufa! Grand Cross! Holy Cross!" "This is our chance, Iris!" "I'm with you all the way, Swiftdrawer!" "Joint Beat! Bash! Sturdy Strike! Frenzy!" A flurry of so many sword swings becomes too much for GLOB to counter completely along with everything else. It was an explosion of colors and energies. So many swords attacking the same areas. My mii counterpart was even there too fighting with a sword despite being a master of all first type Miitopian jobs, the ones granted by Guardian or special charms found in different regions of Miitopia. They can literally use so many other job skills and yet, they go with the sword, their very first weapon type used in battle. Backing up all the fighters were of course healers and protectors the entire time but no one can do proper healing of anyone else due to the sheer scale of our foe. "This GLOB will face the full extent of my Rinnegan. Go, my Paths of Pain, show this creature the same pain they have inflicted onto others!" Nagato and his paths start dealing so much damage and are so fast that GLOB is unable to inflict much damage onto them. Naruto and his army of shadow clones are also a major pain for GLOB as Naruto's clones take a lot of hits for Naruto and some others. The same can be said of Dominic and GADGET's clones as well. But their clones can take more than one hit before being destroyed. As if that weren't enough, Naruto's clones are all transformed to the same form Naruto has.

It is truly an amazing and powerful form that has few equals. Sasuke and the other ninja are close to Naruto and are so good at agility that few injuries are inflicted by Glob onto them. As for most of the duelists, they're gathered together, using the advantages of having many field spells in play at once as well as that of an action field. Because they're by each other and fighting alongside nearly all the duel monsters, the combined brain card and pool of support cards is immense, allowing for them to be no less of a fighting force than any other group fighting GLOB at the moment. The scientists are all largely supporting from behind through magic or technology or in Dominic's case, literally both. The martial artists such as Goku, Vegeta, and even Roshi and Pan are fighting from above or on the ground. Orange Piccolo and Gohan Beast are really being pushed in this fight. Then there's the creatives besides me, the scientists, and the artist duel monsters. They're fighting GLOB with things they're working together to quickly build in montages or something. Now as for specific notable things going on. "Come on ninja, we must use the Tornado of Creation! ..Yes dad, you can help too." "That's my son!" "I'd rather not be your son!" "Cheer up Lloyd, I'm learning to be good, remember?" "Lloyd, Garmadon! Now's not the time for your family issues!" "Ha! Nice one, Kai!" "Jay! This is not the time for this!" "I'm with Kai. We need to focus on creating the Tornado of Creation. Or rather, you guys need to.." "Don't worry, Nya! You can still be awesome! You just have to believe in yourself!" "Even though I didn't need the pep talk, Kai, thanks." "Ah the vigor of youth. Come on Garmadon, we can't let them have all the fun!" "Of course now, Wu!" They all created the Tornado of Creation which somehow managed to deal damage instead of build something this time. Then there was Majin Buu and Mr. Satan. "Aaaaaa! How do you people deal with such scary enemies?! Owwwww! My fists!" "No! Buu no like seeing Mr. Satan hurt himself. Buu says Mr. Satan sit this one out!"

"I can't give up, not for Videl or Pan!" "Buu insists Mr. Satan sit this one out!" Buu has been punching GLOB this entire time. "Buu! I need to do this!" "No! Mr. Satan must rest somewhere!" "But Buu, I'm the world martial arts champion!" "Buu says Mr. Satan no has the skills to fight this giant big scary thing!" Buu proceeds to attempt to turn GLOB into chocolate while Mr. Satan runs away from the battle and sits down next to me. Buu also continues to punch in between attempts to turn GLOB into chocolate. Nearby, Broly, Madeline, Bakugo, and Kale(Universe 6 gentle Saiyan who goes Super Saiyan Rage when pissed off) rampage with attack after attack. They end up fighting by each other but don't pay much attention to each other. "DIE! DIE DIE DIE! YOU BIG PIECE OF CRAP, YOU COMPLETE BASTARD WHOSE VERY EXISTENCE PISSES ME OFF! WHY ARE YOU EVEN SO BIG AND POWERFUL ANYWAY?! IT MAKES NO SENSE!" "YOU'RE NOT KAKAROT BUT YOU ARE MORE ANNOYING THAN HE WAS WHEN HE CRIED ALL THE TIME!" "HOW DARE YOU BE STRONGER THAN ME!" "LEAVE US ALONE! I JUST WANTED TO HEAL MY FRIENDS BUT NOW, YOU'VE FORCED ME TO FIGHT YOU INSTEAD!" They continued to yell like that while demonstrating intense strength in some form or another. But then, the first major break in the defenses of GLOB finally occur despite the fact there are like 50 others sitting down by me now because the fighting is that intense and our foe is THAT hard to beat. The greatest demonstration of Kamehameha I have ever seen up till this point happens as Goku, Gohan, Roshi, Xeno Goku, Xeno Trunks, Future Trunks, and multiple others use it at the same time. The resulting blast builds upon the work of the sword users, creating a pretty large dent in GLOB, creating a fully exploitable weak spot in the process which is immediately taken advantage of by Deku, All Might, Barla, and Mel who are followed behind in that front by others. "Midoriya! I'm so happy we can fight together like this! Come on!"

"Yeah, I'm with you, All Might!" "DOUBLE DETROIT SMASH!" "Ahahahahaha! Boom! Boom! More explosions! I have so many more rockets! Time to use them!" "For Miitopia, we will win this battle! It is our duty!" Everyone else pretty much begins focusing on that weak spot as well but it was still going to be a lot of time and pain before GLOB was finally defeated. The being roared over and over again, showing no signs of intelligent speech that could be translated through Multiversal Standard to all of us. This happened the entire battle like with Cell Max when Gohan, Piccolo, Krillin, and more fought against him because he wasn't perfected enough to gain human like intelligence. "Oh yeah! Shadow!" "What do you want, Sonic? I'm trying to help defeat this monster along with everyone else here for the most part." "I know that, Shadow but don't forget! *pulls out the Chaos Emeralds*" "Oh right, those. Chaos.." "Control!" Sonic and Shadow go super, causing most of their bodies to go golden while a golden aura surrounds them. The true power of anthropomorphic hedgehogs. They are now a lot stronger and faster than before, so fast that they're literally running in the air now and delivering punch after punch to GLOB. Again, GLOB can't focus on damaging everyone due to everything going on. But in response to all these coordinated attacks, they focus on damaging everyone with a single attack. Barla shouts: "Defenders! Please move to the front and block this attack! Hurry!" A lot of individuals do so such as Elemental Hero Mudball Man, Soul Drain Dragon, Number 34: Terrorbyte, Roan, Barla herself, Giant Soldier Of Stone, Gladiator/Guardian Swiftdrawer(the one with flower fairies), and Knuckles.

What none of us expected was for the defenders to not be enough even with shield spells bolstering their defenses. Some were even protected by Miitopian Shield Sprinkles. The force of the attack launched by GLOB was so great that not a single one of us didn't take damage. Even those of us who had to sit the rest of the battle out were hurt. It was that powerful and in the aftermath, not a single individual was still standing up. We were all hurt to different degrees. "Damn it! We almost had that bastard!" Tsunade got to work as soon as she was able to stand up: "I won't allow all these people to die! I simply refuse! Summoning Technique!" Nagato's paths were the first to stand back up. Tsunade did right after they did and began her plan while one of the Pains summoned the King of Hell to repair the damage to the other Pains. As the Pains prevented GLOB from focusing on anyone else by making sure one another through Nagato's will was repaired whenever they needed to be repaired. But as Tsunade's summoning succeeded, the Pains were all blown away only for Sasuke among other Genjitsu users to cast a massive Genjitsu on GLOB. Thanks to Sasuke's Sharingan, this worked long enough for Tsunade to really get to work. She summoned Katsuya: "*hand signs* Thousands Healing Technique! Lady Katsuya! Just like back in Konoha! Send all my chakra to everyone here so they can be healed all at the same time!" "Are you sure about this, Lady Tsunade? You'll run out of chakra again!" "I understand but this must be done. Not many others have been able to stand back up just yet. Our situation is dire!" "As you wish, Lady Tsunade." Katsuya splits herself into thousands of small versions of her. She may a giant slug but at this point, nobody's even shocked considering everyone has met at least Ovenzilla and one pizza person by now. Okay, the Adventure Time characters are shocked but that's it.

Katsuya goes around and transfers Tsunade's chakra to all of us in order to heal all of us. It took some time but many of those who only got minor injuries kept GLOB busy until everyone else was ready to fight again. Even I wanted to rejoin the battle but I knew it was a bad idea because no heals or recovery items can be spared for me at this point. I exhaust and beat myself up internally too fast for that to work out for us at all. Instead, I just keep watching with only 5 others as everyone else except for Tsunade got back in fully healed and ready to go. As for Tsunade, Blaze gently but quickly transported her to those of us who have to sit out the rest of the fight. They wave at me and poke my nose before rejoining the battle. Having your own fursona physically living and breathing just like you and interacting with them as well is a very rare experience. Hell, Prismo and Abstractoa just end up showing up. Prismo shouts: "Hey everyone! I can grant all of you a wish! If you can make some time to see me, that would be great. But you better not wish something selfish because it might end poorly for you." Abstractoa speaks too: "I have not been a part of most of your battles as I have sworn to not aid in them with my full power. Please understand that this is for the best but I will still help in this battle. If I do not help here, the future of existence is definitively doomed. The continued survival of all of you is vital for the future." Abstractoa then comes to me: "Swiftdrawer, I know why you aren't fighting at all now. As the closest mortal in this universe currently to unlocking the full extent of imagination, I will give you the chance to go all out with it without many limitations. What do you say? Will you fight right beside me? Calling yourself an Artistic Knight is perfect, keep doing so. You are the Artistic Knight and I am the Guardian Of Creativity. We were fated to meet and fight together. Someday, we will fight with you at your future peak of power and with me using my real power. For now, let's help put a stop to GLOB. I will support your eye with my power. Go crazy."

I nod: "Okay, thank you as always. I'm ready!" "Okay." The both of us teleport to the frontline against GLOB and immediately begin helping out. Thanks to the creative guardian, I can now use my imagination as much as I want to with only my mental capacity, time, and my understanding of things holding me back. I truly went crazy with my imagination, even confining the battle into a temporary dimension I managed to create which collapsed as soon as GLOB was close to death without any consequences. I did so many things it's hard to remember them all. All I want remember is that I was able to go a seriously insane amount of damage. After 2 more hours of fighting, we finally defeated GLOB. The final blow was done by Bubblegum, Finn, Jake, and Marceline. It just ended up working out that way. The plot of a story can often work in mysterious ways that not even the creator saw coming at first. When they finished GLOB off, something memorable happened. GLOB literally screamed loudly while spinning around and around and around before literally exploding. When the light of the explosion faded, Yuma and Astral split apart. Astral extracted the number cards from the huge crater that is now where our foe was. But it was through that that we all ended up realizing one way or another that every major villain in the universe was now dead or sealed away(The Lich). I told Finn and Jake about what I did to The Lich's spirit. That's when Finn remembered Sweet P: "Oh no! Sweet P! He's still gone!" Madeline overhears this and runs over while everyone else has their attention focused on the center of the crater for some reason. "Sweet P? I know of him from Swiftdrawer.. What happened to him?" "I'll just say it, Madeline. The Lich fully reawakened in him and we had to stop The Lich by any means necessary as those numbers Astral just extracted allowed him to return and helped power him up. Sweet P was killed.."

"That's so sad! DOMINIC, GET YOUR BOOTY OVER HERE OR ELSE!" Dominic comes running over. "What is it? We think there's someone in the middle of that crater.. What's so urgent that you made a reference of the anterior part of my body in relation to my crotch? What a nap causation." "Dominic, Sweet P was killed because The Lich reawakened in him due to the numbers." "Never mind my words just now. That's so tragic that it snaps me out of complaining. Okay now what exactly are the exact coordinates for that fandangled thing again? Oh right. It's teleporting here now. Madeline, do you have enough mana for this?" "Eats an MP candy along with 4 more* I have enough now! Don't forget that my mana pool isn't big enough to hold enough magic to do this on my own for long." "Sorry! I won't forget again. What a nap causation." After a couple minutes, Sweet P has been fully revived with no Lich presence inside of him. Finn and Jake went off to Tree Trunks and Mr. Pigs to bring Sweet P to them. Meanwhile, Simon formerly the Ice King shows up to the scene and gasps: "Betty?! Is that her in the middle of that crater?!" He has tan skin, white eyes, sunglasses, dark brown hair, and a suit and tie sort of outfit. He runs to the middle of the crater and the rest of us all approach slowly at a distance to witness what was going on for ourselves. Simon reaches the center and sure enough, his love Betty was there. She ended up being transported to around this time from the era before Simon became the Ice King, after the world was basically laid to waste by a bomb. Betty has auburn hair, black eyes, blue glasses, pinkish skin, and a green outfit. "Betty.. I can't believe it. It's you after all of this.. GLOB is gone and now, you're back to being you!" That was the queue for the majority of our comrades to leave, leaving just the Adventure Time characters, myself and the others who came and fought The Lich among other things, and a concerned looking Dominic. He pulls me aside as the Adventure Time characters have their moment with Betty back to normal with them once again.

"Swiftdrawer. There is a redundant apocalypse taking place somewhere on this planet but I'm not sure where. It's location is so unknown that not even sensory ninja could figure out it's location nor could anyone with time magic or space magic. I can warp reality but even it's location eludes me. What a nap causation. We're going to have to search the entire world by foot or flight. But no one who can fly will be able to help us and I have no flying machine I can get. We're going to need the help of everyone here to find out whatever is going on somewhere in this world. It's giving me a migraine just thinking about searching the entire planet. Seriously, what a nap causation." "Damn it, why today of all days? Wasn't the last one just literally yesterday?" "What a nap causation! Yes it was, the Sticks of Doom in Equestria!" "Well, we better tell everyone else who is here right now. But, do we have time to explain BRAINS and all of that to the Adventure Time characters first? Can you figure that out right now?" "Yes, I have already done the math considering the data I'm receiving of the redundant apocalypse's energy. We have more than enough time to explain everything before the apocalypse becomes a problem." "Okay then, let's explain everything with the help of our comrades." And so, we wait for the Land of Ooo residents to finish their reunion stuff before Dominic literally repairs all damage done in the entire world today, including from the other battles to retrieve the other numbers elsewhere which were much more successful and less destructive in the end as Dominic relayed to us. After that, we all explained everything in about 2 hours and had something to eat in the Candy Kingdom before setting off to find whatever redundant apocalypse is going on. To be continued in the final Redundant Apocalypse chapter..

Outro: And this is it! The 2nd part of the Adventure Time focused arc that will end in the last Redundant Apocalypses chapter! Get ready for that! Anyway, this is really quite the chaotic chapter isn't it? Not like the last chapter exactly but chaotic enough for my purposes! This chapter was basically almost completely improvised. I only just came up with the boss thing a day ago as of when this gets published. I'm going to be going to a virtual convention and a physical convention as well coming up soon. I can't wait to do some writing about the physical con and get some ideas from the comedy I'm going to hear! You'll be seeing more things featuring Adventure Time characters for sure in the future besides the last Redundant Apocalypses chapter so again, get ready! I have run out of things to write down here so thank you so much for reading!
