Omnidimension Neptunia: Infinite Memes

by SuperHuman200

Divergent plot, crispy memes, meta humor & references. In a world where the CPUs are subjected to tentacle hentai at the hands of ASIC, it's not quite up to our... MALE OC to save the day like so many other harem power fantasies, but it beats kicking rocks like an NPC, especially if he became a relevant character because of a weirdly shaped one. (Current: Divine Hunger Arc)

Taleia felt her head swimming with pain as she opened her eyes.

"...?''

Her arms were heavy, and her newly feeling legs were weak as she looked around, only being able to see a few feet in front of her due to the sheer amount of dust particles that littered her view.

It felt awfully chilly as she rubbed her shoulders, before calling out to anyone that was still conscious.

"H-"

COUGH!

COUGH!

COUGH!

She was abruptly cut off by a coughing fit, some dust being ejected from her lungs as her survival was made clear to every conscious person in the vehicle.

Or what was left of the vehicle.

The dust began to clear as the coughs died down in the agent's throat. She then heard other voices as a gruff Avery shouted through the dust.

"Is everyone alright?!..." He spoke in a loud, coarse tone as he coughed out some dust.

"I have dust in areas I should not have dust in...!" Betty spoke in between coughs as she gripped a seat, that appeared to be intensively damaged.

"I haven't had this much dust on me since I accidentally stumbling into that plumber's mansion...!" Lady Wac hacked as she held her mouth as she coughed some more dust.

"This is awful...!" Poona complained her eyes were shut, her voice strained as she waves away the dust.

"My head hurts real bad right now... But I'm glad you guys are still alive somehow!" Moru admitted, a somewhat cherry comment to the desolate environment and scenario.

The dust mostly cleared up by the time Mister Chief got up and looked at all of the persons within the critically damaged convoy.

"We've all seemed to recover partially from the blast. Does anyone have any serious or fatal injuries?" The soldier did a health check as everyone inspected the sign and reacted.

Three 'no's, two 'negatives' and a 'not really' was counted as the super-soldier nodded in relief.

They then inspected his condition as his suit was extensively damaged, the playing. being scraped and beaten to the point that only most of his helmet and some of his leg armor were remaining, his torso, arms, and thighs being exposed within his bodysuit, as cuts littered his flesh.

"Holy shit, Mister Chief! Are you alright?" Betty was caught off guard that he could be in such a state.

"I'm fine... Mostly. Our clothes and armor are luckily the only casualties among us." He unknowingly referred as he continued.

Taleia looked down to see that her clothes had been drastically damaged, her sleeves now sleeveless as cuts and scratches were etched on her skin. Her ripped cape reached her upper back as her frontal robe was shredded.

All that really remained were pieces of her black spandex that was ripped in a way that made her scantily clad, as her calves and inner cleavage were exposed, as well as her midriff.

A blush in the color of pink dust appeared on her cheeks for a bit before remembering what situation she was in right now as it faded, looking to the next person.

"Well, he's not wrong." Avery inspected himself as he was now shirtless with ripped pants, military training making his body somewhat sculpted as he had a deadpanned face of his current condition, which wasn't as bad as he thought, minus the abundance of minor injuries.

"Yep. Lucky I made a makeshift top." Betty said as she also had injuries, and used the remains of her top to make a makeshift wrap around her booba, somehow still showing cleavage, based on the physics of the franchise for the sake of fanservice-

Her pants were now shorts as she lost them in the explosion as well, showing her thick, slightly muscular thighs as they were bloody from the injures she sustained.

"We're lucky to just be alive at this point, kiddos." The eldest Commander breathed out as her skirt had become shorter as more injured skin was exposed, her fabric torn and ripped as some of her hair was charred.

Which was something no one was going to tell her for the sake of their eardrums.

"My ears are still kind of ringing, but I feel ok," Moru commented as her armor had been severely damaged, leaving only leaving her clothes as her socks were ripped, her gloves pushed and her leg warmers torn as the foot guards on them were cracked. Her thighs, midriff, and shoulders all had scratches and cuts as her tail and ears spotted some as well.

What? You thought I was gonna lewd a minor to such an extent? I'm not a future villain that we're going to face soon. But she does get some because of inclusion, or something lol-

"That's good to hear." Poona smiled as she sported some minor injuries as well, her dress also shortened to reveal her legs as it cotnained rips and tears until it was half undon, her pantaloons just a hair's breath from being visible.

Her socks were wrung and ripped, her sleeves reaching the grey accent that separated her shoulders from her forearms as they were also visible and scratched, the ends of the sleeves being burnt.

Everyone was damaged and more exposed, but that had to wait, since they've just survived the mythical equivalent of a nuke.

"But what's the status on the convoy? Do we still have communications to HQ? And where did that blast come from? Not to mention, that I don't see anything that's over 5 feet tall around the convoy, and I'm starting to think it's the only thing still standing." Betty rattled out as they looked around, to see that a wasteland was all that was left in the wake of the explosion.

"Uh, I think the fact that we can see outside the convoy, is enough evidence to give us the takeaway that the convoy is fucked." Taleia told her inferior officer as she grimaced.

The male soldier picked up his dust-covered phone before blowing on the screen, to see that it had a shattered screen, with impact fractures at every corner.

"Ah shit, I got this thing only two months ago... Damnit." He cursed before continuing. "The good news is HQ still has a connection to our position." The private gave some positive feedback.

"What's the bad news?" Poona had a questioning raise of pitch in her voice.

"Horizon is going to kill me." He sulked.

"Oh, be quiet about your subpar phone companies. We still have no idea where the origin of that blast came from. Are we sure the military didn't nuke us just now?" Lady Wac harbored some skepticism.

"That's preposterous. Why would they consciously kill their own men? I doubt they've become that starved for solutions to take down one threat." The RRoD agent dismissed the possibility.

"Better to call and make sure, at least. Reinforcements seem all but necessary at this point. To think of it, we should have called them from the time all our comrades were brutally murdered." The armored soldier raised another sign, to which the youngest person in the room spoke next.

"Are those other guys ok? They were probably way closer than us towards that big boom..." The neko girl thought as the agent felt her heart sink in her chest.

"They might be one of two things. Dead or reduced to atoms." The male soldier doubted their survivability from a realistic standpoint as he inspected and disposed of his busted transceiver.

"Isn't that just death with extra steps?" Betty raised a brow.

"I mean, technically you can't be dead if there's no evidence to prove that you are beside it being circumstantial to the last place they occupied, and even then their atoms might have been annihilated." He sweat as he dialed headquarters.

"That can't be true! Nebula's a CPU, and AL can fight with him, a-and Domio-... Oh no..." She sat there, demoralized as she imagined an unnerving fate for the child, let alone her childhood friends as her eyes became glassy.

"I hope it's not true. Besides them, we don't really have much to confide in. We can use the army, but against the grey-haired demigod, I don't think it's gonna do much." The blonde corporal admitted.

"Something is better than nothing. We should try out best against DIO before truly wallowing in despair." Mister Chief tried to keep the morale in the group from turning into existential dread and decided to accept that they were in an unwinnable battle.

"And besides, roughly a quarter of the populous is 6 feet under because of whatever the hell just happened. I'm not going to just sit here and die off." Lady Wac decided to do something about the situation.

"So you're gonna stand and die off?" The male soldier poked at her attempt to rally her allies.

"I'm trying to get you to stop feeling hopeless, you ass!" She snapped.

"Look, try all you want but unless I see that wrytard writhing in abject torture, I'm going to assume Leanbox is going to be neighbors with Atlantis by dawn. I'm praying to Lady Green Heart that some deus ex machina can bail us out, but with what we're facing now, I think all we can do is just that." The soldier gave a neutral standpoint, rather pessimistic from his friends, and superiors' point of view.

"What the hell is with you, can't you see we're trying to not act like sour pessimists!" The corporal snapped at him.

"It's because you guys are acting like the goddess herself is going to descend from the heavens, bust line first, and body slam DIO into the ground and through the ceiling of hell that I'm acting like this!" He yelled back.

"But why do you think it's useless to even try, especially when so many lives have been lost?" The green-haired Commander genuinely asked of him.

"It's because sending more soldiers to die, would be the equivalent of sending more sacrifices against DIO. Even ignoring the fact that the more of us that perish, the weaker our goddess becomes since she's powered by our faith, the last we want to do is perish without rational reason because that means less resistance for DIO and more lives that are foolishly thrown away." He came up with a valid point as he faced the shorter young woman.

"You joined exactly to die for Lady Vert! Complaining about the effectiveness and long-term repercussions of the death of her soldiers is beyond your rank! Your job is to shut up and do what your told, private!" Betty harshly shouted at her comrade, ignoring his points for the sake of their mission.

"I'd gladly lay my life down if it meant something in the end, but right now all that would do is push this country closer to collapse! As much as a realist I can be, and as much as a pessimist I try to avoid being, this is the matter at hand, and multiply my death by thousands and that's the equivalent of sending reinforcements against that man." He argued as Taleia finally stopped her mental meltdown.

"But we have no other choice. So as much as I agree with your outlook on the matter, we have no alternative, Avery. We'll have to send everything we have at him and pray it does something, even if it seems like all our brain cells died of fear." She came to a conclusion, not liking that their efforts would most likely do nothing but slow down the ruthless invader at most, but doing something was infinitely more plausible from doing nothing.

"...You're right." He cocended to the harsh truth with a begrudging tone.

Just as he finished that, the phone finally connected to a secure and off grid link between its current position and headquarters.

"Hello? Private, this is HQ, do you read me?" The voice called out to its contact as Avery picked up the phone and put it on speaker, noticing it picking up.

"Affirmative, this is Private Johnson. I'm requesting immediate reinforcements, the entire squad that had been sent out has been KIA, omitting my own." He began as the operator answered.

"Request has been sent to the higher-ups for clearance." The man behind the voice told the private as Taleia then voiced her commands as well.

"This is Agent Taleia of the RRoD. Tell them to deploy the land units as well as the Air Force, and have them deliver aerial support. Have the naval units surround the northeastern coast for any activity, and blast him out of the sky as well. We can't afford to hold anything back!" She commanded as the operator responded.

"Yes, ma'am. Sending commands to the general." He reported as he did just that.

"I hope it's enough. After that, we've run dry of options." The private sighed.

"Other than going out there and facing him ourselves," Betty said as she took her rifle and geared up.

"Don't tell me youre going to..." The soldier already knew the conclusion of his doubt, but was still equally shocked.

"What else can we do! We've been sitting on our asses for the past couple of hours and twiddled our thumbs. It's time we do something." She told her comrade.

"But staying here is why we're still alive! Going directly to fight him would just be suicide, or did you forget about the laser eyes, time stopping, island destroying vampire?!" Avery yelled as Taleia came in between the two of them.

"Alright, alright! Here's what we'll do. Betty, Avery, and Mister Chief, you three go back to HQ and brief them of the state of the eastern sector. Get some better equipment and come back. Commanders, you're with me to face DIO." He pointed at the three as they nodded.

"But where is he now? How would we even know his exact position?" She asked as the halfling cupped her chin.

"We just follow the direction that Brave Heart took." She simply stated as Moru nodded.

"Seems legit." She accepted the reasoning.

"Alright." Poona also agreed.

"Right." Lady Wac was on board.

"Let's get going." Taleia was ready to move out as the group of seven split into two as one headed northbound and the other east.

---

"I deem you worthy... Of the consumption of your blood!"

STAB!

HACK!

DIO yelled as he tore through AL's flesh, blood exploding from the puncture wound as the martial artist's eyes widened, pain coursing through his limp body as he coughed a gob of blood.

"AL!" Cave and Blinx yelled in shock and horror as the process of blood consumption began.

ABSORB!!!

DRY UP!

The fighter's body began to become malnourished and went through muscular atrophy, his body becoming weak and depleted of life as DIO's own life force only increased before he took his perfectly clean hand out of his victim's soon to be corpse.

DROP!-

FALL!

AL was dropped as he dangled in the air, not even able to brace himself for the fall as he expected an incredibly painful impact.

But his body was caught by Cave as she held him up, his head elevated and angled comfortably.

"AL, stay with us!" She asked of him as his eyes were tired, and his nose and mouth had trails of blood leaving down to his chin and jaw, as his eyes looked in hers.

"I... I'm not sure I have the strength to do that... Any... More..." He whispered, trying his best to keep his consciousness.

"You can't die! You're the only thing standing between Leanbox and annihilation, not to mention the lives of your friends!" Blinx pleaded with the wounded warrior to cling to life.

"If I do die... At least I got a nice view before I did... Kek." AL looked towards Cave's mommy milkers before glaring at DIO, floating above them as the bloodsucker inspected himself.

"The feeling of consuming high-quality blood will never cease to satisfy my tastes...!" He laughed before looking down at the trio.

"Well, well, well. It's the Three Musketeers. Or should I say the Three Mistakes." DIO made fun of his opponents as Blinx hissed at him, and Cave turned to send a dull glare at him.

"Fuck... Off... Sparkling... Twink...!" He strained as Cave told him to conserve his energy.

"Ah yes. I may sparkle, but at least I do not bleed out." The vampire retorted.

"I might die... But at least I don't look like I belong in a gay bar..." He insulted as DIO growled.

"Says the man, who is wearing nothing but burnt fabric for pants." The creature of the night responded.

"And why do you think he looks like that? Or did that Shoryuken diagnose your voluntary down syndrome?" The cat delivered a ruthless roast as a vein formed on DIO's forehead as Cave held in a smile, and AL gargled the blood in his mouth with laughter.

"The hell did you just say to me you anthropomorphic pussy!" The vampire became heated."

"Oh, I guess the ass-kicking you received made you deaf as well. Please don't start shouting every sentence from now on, I'd rather be killed than hear a posh manchild scream for the next few hours." The cat sparked.

"That can be arranged...!" DIO raised a brow as the World appeared next to him, only visible to AL, unfortunately.

"Just like how I rearranged your spinal cord? Or how I'll arrange your funeral...? Spoilers: You don't get one." AL managed to fry the vampire's ego even further as his smile became a furious grimace.

"I'LL LEAVE ALL OF YOU FOR DEAD LIKE FOR THIS FLAMING IMBECILE'S FATHER LEFT HIM FOR SOME MILK!" DIO vehemently attacks the trio and its strongest member's feelings.

There was silence.

"That's what I thought. Useless mongrels-"

"Talking from experience, or did your drunk father leave you for some alcohol?" AL shot back, the blue to his father removing any lingering sense of hurt.

"Seems legit." Blinx sagely nodded before hearing a blood-curdling scream of fury.

"WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"

SHINE!!!

HEAT!!!

DIO screeched in abject frustration and wrath, his body becoming a white-hot mass underneath his clothes as the three below him turned away, the heat almost being unbearable to even be near.

MOLTEN CRATER!!!

The two heroes jumped back, the heat causing a circular molten crater to form 30 meters around DIO as it quickly became 10 meters deep even as he was flying.

"What is this sudden heat?!" Cave questioned as it soon subsided, even the vampire contemplating what just happened.

"?!" The bloodsucker returned to his regular temperature as he became visible again.

"He became a human torch for a second!" Blinx blinked for a second, trying to regain coherent eyesight, light streaks still visible on his sensitive eyes.

"Hmm..." DIO hummed as he looked at his hand.

Extreme emotion triggered the ability's presence, but he wanted a more controlled and viable variation to what he just unlocked.

DUBSTEP FART!

TIME STOP!

So he did just that.

"Za Warudo! Toki yo tomare." The vampire shouted as he kept eye contact, now having virtually no interruption to his learning process in the now forty one seconds he possessed.

He then focused on making this newfound power of his more situationally accessible as he focused on his hand.

HEAT UP...!

His body temperature increased as the surface area of his palm became marginally hotter, before it stopped at a certain threshold.

"Tch... Come on...!" The vampire urged his ability as he grew frustrated with its shortcoming, the temperature of his palm becoming hotter as it soon reached the boiling temperature for water, the heat being able to be felt from where the villain's head was.

HEAT UP!

"I can certainly do better than this. Emotions trigger the reaction... So a strong emotion should... Anger! I'll just consciously warp my emotions into a state of wrath! That should do the trick!" It clicked within the vampire as he thought about all the shit he had to endure tonight.

"Those insufferable peasants!"

SHINE!!!

He snarled as his fingers slightly curled from the effects of them being the center of his attention, besides the initial mastery of his ability.

His hand glowed a vibrant white as its temperature skyrocketed, as it became less bright, but retained its melting heat.

"Aha!"

BRIGHTEN!

DIM!

The vampire yelled as a eureka moment upon him as he dimmed and brightened his palm, grasping an entry-level of control over his new power.

HEAT!!!

MELT!!!

DIO gained a small smile on his lips, lighting up his hand again, the ripples from the sheer heat being present as he fired a wave of heat in front of the trio, the ground melting from the heat, making an isolated platform.

HEAT UP!

The molten depression surrounded the trio as he grinned at his handiwork, before heating his other palm as well.

TIME RESUMES!-

BOOM!

Time resumed as he floated, both hands glowing at a now safe level of brightness as the trio now realized that he had glowing white hands.

The three survivors were startled as they looked around them frantically before settling their eyes on the black-clad sun allergic menace.

"His hands... They shine...!" AL gasped.

"The power of heat is now mine to command! For my hands now glow as hot as the sun's surface! And to think Jonathan wielded an ability similar to this! How nostalgic." He shouted with glee as Blinx cut his cheers short.

"How do you even know it glows that hot?!" The cat questioned.

"Because I said so." He told the animal in a condescending tone, his smile widening from his answer.

"That's the most stupid thing I've ever heard!" The feline spat, tired of the vampire's antics after only knowing him for around a few hours.

"Says the blinded cat." He mocked his current condition.

"Alright one, I can see clearly now-" The temporal cat was cut off by his wounded ally.

"The rain is gone...!" The bloody martial artist memed.

"-And two, retardation and blindness are two different disabilities and at least one of us got rid of them. Too bad retardation is permanent or you'd know which one it was-"

HEAT...!

BFFT!

MELT!!!

The cat felt a sensation of heat before warping to the side with his Time Crystal as half of the platform was melted into molten rock, like the area below it.

"What!-" Cave's eyes darted to the left to see the effects of the attack. Then looked down to see the sticky situation they found themselves in.

"That was close. He's pulled something else out of his a-"

"Die!"

HEAT UP!...

The bloodsucker roared before thrusting both hands forward, sending a wave of invisible heat at them, their current position becoming warmer.

EVADE!!!

The two able-bodied members get out of dodge by dodging the attack, jumping into the air.

MELT!!!

Right before their previous position melted, the sole platform became a pit the size of a football field, magma occupying its base thousands of meters below.

The heat from the base was able to be felt even up by the heroes as they were now abundantly wary of the vampire's ability.

"The end we would be from being hit by that ability would not by any means be pleasant." Cave truthfully observed as AL reciprocated her statement.

"There's being smoking hot like us, and then there's becoming scorched off the planet." AL distinguished.

"I'm pretty there's more where that came from."

AIM!

HEAT!

Blinx saw the vampire look up at them before stretching out his hand again, the heatwave rapidly approaching.

GRAB!

BLAST!!!

EXPLOSION!

PROPELL!

The warrior saw the rippling of the air heading towards them before grabbing the talking cat and using his other hand to fire a white KI blast that clashed before blowing them back.

Sending them flying as the resulting explosion made some distance between the trio and DIO.

"Hmph."

GRAB!

SPIN!!!

THROW!!!

ZOOM!

DIO tracked their trajectory before quickly giving chase, his stand achieving as his catapult as he was thrown.

"Conserve your energy, AL!" The soldier chided him as he remained silent, his eyes now locked with an unnerved gaze at the approaching vampire.

"VAMPIRE AT 8'O CLOCK!"

BFFT!-

Blinx screamed as the three looked to where he was approaching them before the sound fo distortion occurred.

"UREEEEEEEY!"

HEAT BREATH!!!

DIO was now above them as he focused the temperature from his palms to his uvula, the back of his throat, and his tongue as he released a concentrated wave of heat out of his mouth as he roared.

MELT!!!

The three felt the heat as Blinx used his Sweeper to send out a burning ball of debris to propel them out of the way if they attack, just barely missing as the ground beneath them now had a gaping hole with the size of a building and the depth of an upside-down a skyscraper.

"Running away? I thought I'd die with the belief that would win?" The vampire asked as they turned to him, seeing his shit-eating grin as he mocked their evasion.

"Don't patronize us, you monster!" Cave sent a cold glare as the bloodsucker chuckled.

"Oh, how I pity the fools."

GLOW...!

HUM!!!...

He referenced before putting his hand on his face and outstretching the other before his singular eye glowed, the pupil becoming heated to the point where it glowed.

HEAT UP!

A menacing sound was heard as DIO's retinas heated up, the conversion of heat reaching his pupils as he rose the temperature of the fluid in his eyes to a gaseous state momentarily, before changing into plasma.

His vision in said eye became blurry as he prepped to fire the attack.

"We gotta move!" The decommissioned fighter shouted as the creature of the night was finished charging.

GRAB!-

BFFT!!!

LASER EYE!

Blinx quickly grabbed his blue Time Crystal before the trio disappeared, a distorted sound playing as the singular plasma beam shot forth from DIO's eye, just barely aim dodging it.

SHOCKWAVE!!!

PINK INFERNO!!!

A pink linear collection of supercharged electrons and ions blasted from the pupil of the vampire, reaching the ground at the speed of light.

The wasteland soon caught ablaze, a shockwave emitting upon contact as pink ionic flames ravaged the remains of the area he had blasted down upon.

"Drat. I missed them. But this destruction can only increase my chances of success if even one attack hits them!" DIO yelled as he looked down, pride filling his heart as he saw the flames spread for blocks on end.

Meanwhile, flying towards the location of DIO, the trio zoomed towards his position as they conversed.

"How much further until we find him?" Brave Heart queried. His eyes were narrowed with determination and laced with contemplation as he pondered something as he asked the question.

"We're almost there." Kars started without beating around the bush.

"That's good. I don't think I can take the suspense much longer." Domio admitted, wanting to confront the dangerous person for once instead of cowering.

"Me neither. This is starting to drag out. Dare I say it, but I'm getting tired of this neverending escalation of bullshit." The CPU admitted as Kars responded to his statement.

"Oh? I've been having a blast spectating this battle. First against DIO myself before watching the human torch have around, I find the prospect highly interesting." The Ultimate Life Form commented his opinion as the god looked at him.

"That's because you don't give a damn about the death and misfortune about the people that used to be below us. Even if a fight's good, I have to put the safety of others first so that the least amount of consequence is brought upon any entertaining skirmish." Brave Heart explained his own ideal about fighting as Kars scoffed.

"So you sacrifice the intensity and stake off a fight for the sake of others? No wonder you feel so bothered by its duration. Beneath all that snarky bravado lies a compassionate deity. Should I bring some tissue before you mourn their deaths, too?" The alien poked fun as the deity was about to snark at him when his foster son stood up for him.

"...Hey! At least he cares. You're strong Kars, but my dad has something you don't, which makes him even tougher than you." The child told the muscular birdman.

"And that might be?" The alien was now intrigued as he may have been missing out on something.

"Heart. He might not show it as much in this form, but he cares. If he didn't, I wouldn't be here today, and you probably wouldn't be next to us either." The Loweean boy told his acquaintance as Kars raised a brow.

"Are you insinuating that Brave Heart could have killed me the first time he saw me here, but simply chose not to because of his benevolence?" The Ultimate Life Form asked.

"I'm not in-sin-you-ate-ing anything. I'm telling you." Domio clutched the pronunciation of the word as Kara began to laugh, a belittling cackle at the child's words.

"Hahahahahaha! Do you honestly believe something as menial as the power of love and friendship can win you a fight?! Against DIO, let alone myself? Hell, when I met you, you were struggling against him and I inadvertently freed you from your bind! And yet you have the gall to preach about compassion like its the cure to every problem in the world!-"

BFFT!

CRASH!!

The airborne trio were met with an explosion of dust as they halted their path.

"Please don't tell me that reference made him appear before us." Brave Heart begged the author as he, alongside Kars and his backpack buddy descended.

LAND!!!

SKID...!

They landed before the mass of dust, wary of what lay within as they got ready to engage.

But upon the area becoming clear, they saw that it was in actuality some familiar faces instead.

"AL! Cave! Blinx!" The CPU yelled as he released his gravitational hold on Domio as he too ran to them after dropping on the ground.

"Nebula!" The able-bodied duo yelled as they saw the god approach before coming to their side, crouching to face his fading friend.

"Neb... If I don't make it... Delete my internet history... And the incognito bookmarks."

REACH!

He half-jokingly, half-seriously told his friend as he stretched his arm out to him for emphasis.

"Your ISP already knows you look at BBW, MILF, SFM, and NTR-"

"AYE!-"

BLOODY COUGH!

TWITCH!

AL choked on his blood as his eyes turned into comical swirls, Brave Heart laughing at his reaction as his human friend's outstretched hand twitched into a slightly contracted state.

"You watch BBW? Wait, actually that makes sense considering the stereotype with fat women and-"

"Be quiet, Domio! I'm not gonna die in a hot woman's arms while being kinkshamed. Nebula used to beat it to Pu-"

GRAVITY!

"MMF! HMPH! HMM! HMMMMMF!"

Brave Heart pinched his fingers, closing AL's mouth shut as he erratically tried to speak, only sounding out frustrated hums.

"Was there something that you deemed classified in his words?" Kars made a snide remark.

"Kars, I will punch you in your jaw if you ask any more questions you already know the answer to." The CPU didn't even glance at his question as he warned.

"I'd like to see you try." The Ultimate Life Form welcomed the challenge.

"Ignore the male stripper and help your friend,"

TRANSFER!

Blinx told the CPU as he began transferring some of his KI into his dying friend, the process being slow but did manage to begin sustaining AL.

The orange glow of energy was murkily transferred from Brave Heart's hand to AL's body as he felt his injuries while not healing, becoming less overbearing as the bags under his eyes slowly faded, and a lazy eye he possessed returning to normal.

"This won't heal you, but it'll make sure you can survive until the day is upon us." The CPU assured as AL now spoke in a more vibrant tone.

"Mmf. Mmmmmf! Mmf, hmf, hm." The martial artist hummed, his mouth still sealed.

"Oh."

RELEASE!

"I will bust all your files of you cut me off mid-exposing again." His friend warned.

"Yeah, yeah. Now stop taking up Cave's arms and stand on your own two feet like a big boy."

PUT DOWN!

STAND!

He goaded as the fighter was put onto his feet by the redhead.

"Thanks, Cave." He showed his gratitude to the soldier.

"No problem."

NOSEBLEED!

NOSEBLEED!

She bowed, showing a generous view of her bust in the process, causing a slight nosebleed from the CPU and his son as a result.

'Holy knockers.' Was the mental remark Brave Heart made as he witnessed the beautifully enticing phenomenon known as jiggle physics. 'Talk about some milk jugs. Be it far from me to say it aloud.' He continued.

'Wait, is she just in her bra?'

WIPE!

Domio's eyes bulged as he now bled from both nostrils as he wiped the blood before shaking the perverse thoughts out of his head.

'No, that must be from DIO. Speaking of which, where is he?...' The boy looked around, remembering the entire reason they were even flying.

"Don't tell me you plan to be fighting like that?" Kars had a tone of amusement as AL looked up at the alien.

"And what if I am?" The fire user growled.

"How precious. Cure."

GLOW!

HEAL!!!

Kars outstretched his hand before a soft green glow emanated from it, the human's minor wounds being fully healed and few major injuries somewhat healed, the hole being still present was reduced to the size of an apple, all from a minor healing spell.

"What the hell? You can heal people?!" The martial artist was both startled, skeptical as well as in disbelief, his tone describing emotions perfectly.

"Of course I can heal people. Do you think I'd just pick up ONE magic book? As the Ultimate Life Form, no form of information is beyond my grasp." He boasted of his mental prowess as he continued.

"And besides, filling fools with false hope before seeing them fall is one THE most satisfying feeling to ever exist." He gave his actual motive to healing AL.

"Knew it, there's no way you'd do that out of chance or the kindness in your heart. Even so, this can work to our benefit." Brave Heart deduced as he then looked to AL.

"How do you feel?'' The CPU wanted a more definite grasp on his condition.

"Your energy gave me enough stamina and inadvertent SP to stand and most likely fight without much hindrance. Kars' healing stunt has put me back on the roster, as much as I hate to validate his abilities." He stated.

BURN!!!

He then activated his Burning Fever, his body returning to its base multiplier of 5.

"My power's been reset though. As much as I'd like to give the wrytard a rematch, I doubt I could take more than a couple hits at this point." He admitted as Blinx looked at him.

"Then what about the Satsui no Hado thing you did? Can't you just go back into it?" The cat asked.

"It wouldn't be as powerful. Even if I somehow managed to tap into it again, I'd still be objectively inferior to DIO by what I'm sensing." He stated as Cave our the pieces together.

"So you're too weak to actually stand up to him anymore." She told the fighter.

"At this point, yes. It's either up to Kars, or Nebula to fight him." AL gave the names of the potential candidates.

"What about me?" Domio queried his viability to the fight.

"He controls heat now. Sending you to fight him would be putting an ice cube into a microwave and expecting it not to melt when you turn it on." The cat explained the severe disadvantage the Loweean was in against the vampire.

"He controls WHAT?" The CPU was aghast at the potential of such a versatile ability.

"Heat. The implications of such a variable ability do not bode well."

"Well someone has to fight him." AL got to the point.

"I'll do it." Brave Heart stepped up to the plats as he looked to the group. "Kars is just gonna prolong Leanbox's suffering, so at least I'll try to put him 6 feet under." The CPU gave his reason for his volunteering as the alien scoffed.

HEAT UP...!

'!!!'

"Baro Barrier!"

REPULSION!!!

HEAT!!!

REFLECT!

MELT!!!

Just as the contender was decided, a wave of heat was felt like the god quickly activated his gravity shield technique, before the actual heatwave hit.

A cubic gravitational construct expanded, large enough to encompass the 6 persons within the box as the heat was halted from melting all within as the ground outside the barrier was not that lucky.

A melted gaping hole, the size of a park and the depth of a lake was formed. Molten earth occupied its base as they hear from it reached even up to ground level.

"That was close...!" Domio almost stuttered as he now frantically looked for the vampire's presence.

"His heat manipulation is not something to sneeze at. Until he shows himself, staying in this area is our best bet of survival." AL told the others.

"Like we had any plans of leaving after that attack." Blinx sarcastically stated.

"But where is he?" Cave tried to use her other senses to detect the vampire, to no avail.

"He's actually right beside us." Kars pointed as they all looked to see the dark-clad bloodsucker floating, his presence being masked by using the shadow that was created from the irregular shape of the sole pillar, then returning once they looked for him.

"Indeed I am." DIO made his voice known as the others turned to him. "Fancy your gravity, don't you? So-called deity." He pointed out.

"You'll be fancying some broken bones in a minute." Brave Heart sparked.

"Is that so? Get out of your safe space and prove it." The vampire goaded.

"And there he is. Go ahead, Nebula. Fuck him up."

WALK...!

VANISH!!!-

REAPPEAR!

Few words were spoken by the martial artist as he deactivated the gravity shield before stepping to the edge of the platform.

The CPU disappeared and reappeared with his back turned to DIO, looking over his shoulder to him as the dark monster already had his eyes on his location.

"You doubt your death?" Beave Heart asked a question with a piercing tone.

"I doubt if you're the person asking that question. Last time I checked, crying wolf was something that was looked down upon." He smiled.

"You'll be crying for your dead mother soon enough."

BIFF!!!

CRASH!!!

The deity insulted as DIO's head formed a vein as he swung, hitting the god straight in the mouth as his gravity mitigated some of the damage, but still sent him into the pit.

The molten rock exploded as the CPU's friends sans Kars called out to him.

"Nebula!" They yelled as he was downed.

"..." Kars remained quiet before doing something else magic-related.

POINT!

CIRCLE!

WATER MAGIC!!!

He stuck out a finger and made a ring motion with his fingertip as he faced it down before a mass of water dropped on the crater.

EVAPORATE!

STEAM!!!

The water crashed into the ground below and instantly evaporated, cooling down the lava to room temperature levels as even DIO was rather off-put by what Kars had just done.

"What is wrong with you!" Blinx yelled at the alien.

"Hold your tongue cat. The saying was coined after you, after all."

EARTHQUAKE!!!

Kars shushed him before he then raised his middle and index finger upwards, causing the ground to rumble.

RAISE!!!

STEAM!...

The ground below then rose to where they stood as it pushed the steam that occupied there as well.

RAISE...!

CLAP!!!

BOOM!

WOOSH!!!

Within the steam, Kars brought both his hands to the side, before channeling his SP into his hands as he infused them with wind magic before clapping.

FEAR AURA!

An omnidirectional blast of wind energy raced from the Ultimate Life Form's hands as the steam was instantly cleared as the grounded individuals braced themselves, trying their best not to be pushed back by the powerful winds.

DIO himself coated his body in fear energy as the winds themselves were rendered meaningless to him.

Brave Heart was also revealed, with a nasty mark on the side of his face but otherwise, he was relatively fine.

The form-fitting gravitational barrier around him protected him from the magma as well as the water pressure, not to mention the wind pressure.

STAND!

He stood up, the steam dramatically blowing around him as he wiped the blood from his mouth, trying his best to ignore the seething pain his face harbored.

"Didn't know you were interested in making the fight a 2v1. For or against my favor is still for grabs, though." The CPU remarked as the Ultimate Life Form responded.

"Oh, don't be stupid. I find that evening the playing field will make the results of the fight much more unpredictable. Don't lump my interests with your misconception of altruism."

MAGIC FIRE!

The sculpted male explained himself, as he then held a hand up before a magic flame burst forth.

"I could uneven the odds if that tickles your fancy?" He menacingly offered, his eyes gaining a shadow over them.

"You've done enough already. Just sit your alien ass down and get ready for some fists to fly...!" The deity shooed his attempt as Kars lowered the fire. 'Besides, he never said he was going to do it in my favor, either. Better to be safe than sorry.' A mental note was made.

"Your arrogance betrays the weight of your words." DIO pointed out as he descended to the ground, getting ready to bum rush the god into oblivion.

LAND!...

"This is coming from the man screaming 'useless' every 10 seconds when the only thing he describes is his attempts to kill me and my friends, and being overconfidence incarnate whenever he gains a slight advantage." The CPU shot back as the vampire's tone dropped.

"My confidence is warranted, you mongrel! And I'll show you useless!"

HEAT!!!

REPULSION!!!

CLASH!

DIO outstretched his hand as Nebula mirrored the action, as the forces of melting heat and repulsive gravity met at the center.

MOLTEN CRATER!

PRESSURIZED CRATER!

Air rippled as the two forces of nature collided, causing the ground to crater, each half of it being its corresponding element's effect as DIO's best caused it to be molten as Brave Heart's side depressed from the sheer pressure.

FLOAT!!!

The vampire sent his stand to flank the god as they continued their clash, The World floating towards Brave Heart.

OVERPOWER!

APPROACH!

Brave Heart saw the phantom approach him, knowing that if its stand user could floor him, his stand would pulverize him. Not to mention that he was beginning to lose the clash.

CRASH!!!

SWING!

MELT!!!

So he waited until he was on the verge of being overwhelmed simultaneously as the stand reeled back for a head-splitting cross before pulling off a maneuver.

GUST!!!

FADE...!

MELT!!!

The ground gave way under the weight that Brave Heart augmented his body to be as he dodged the blow the dark stand threw as it caused the wind to gust before fading right before the heatwave melted the surface the CPU used to escape the attacks.

DIO was confused as he saw the deity dodge his attacks looking around for where he went before spotting the hole.

"He went underground!"

CROUCH!

REST!-

He noticed before quickly getting on all fours and putting his ear to the ground to pinpoint the location of the now subterranean CPU.

BREAK!!!

UPPERCUT!!!

His ear touched the ground right before a first burst forth from the ground and crashed into his jaw, sending the off-guard bloodsucker twirling into the air.

"Jūryoku Shoryuken!" The god roared as he landed his surprise attack.

Brave Heart exploded out of the ground, lava flying off of his shield as he connected with the vampire's mug before cupping his hands and throwing them forward as he screamed once more.

"Hadōken!"

BLAST!!!

JET!!

He yelled the large blue chaotic orb of KI shooting out of his hands as DIO with one eye shut from the pain blasted an SRSE beam to defend himself, timing.

PIERCE!!!

The beam pierced through the beam as it was instantly bypassed due to the fear energy it was laced with, piercing Brave Heart's left palm and going through his entire arm before exiting through the back of his shoulder in a gush of blood.

"Krkh!"

SLAM!

The CPU grit his teeth as his trajectory was stunted, before he slammed back onto the ground, shutting his eyes in pain.

THROW!!!

THROW!!!

THROW!!!

DIO stopped his ascent before taking a couple of knives and chucking them at the downed deity.

REPULSION!

HALT!

Brave Heart's ears picked up the sound of the approaching knives as he stuck out his uninjured hand to repel them with a barrier.

"Shit."

ROLL!!!

BYPASS!!!-

STAB!

STAB!

STAB!

The knives however began to cut through the gravitational barrier, their fear energy affinity beginning to seep through the universal force as the god noticed.

SUMMON!

LEVITATION DODGE!!!

STAND BARRAGE!!!

The obsidian fear knives barely missed the CPU after he rolled, before The World was summoned and rushed his current position and barrages the ground as it yelled in DIO's voice as it attacked the ground, creating countless fist depressions and spider cracks in the ground.

The World kept its barrage constant as the god altered his personal gravity to a more repulsive level as instead of just pushing away harmful objects, it actively pushed the CPU away from the murder spirit as he levitated off the ground and spun like a power drill from the acceleration due to lack of conventional physics being forced upon his body.

EXTEND!!!

CLENCH!

ATTRACTION!

Brave Heart quickly redirected his trajectory to approach underneath DIO before stretching his hand out towards him as he quickly approached him.

HEAT!!!

The vampire had long recovered and screamed as he stuck out his arms, getting ready to release a triple heat blast, with the potency to completely melt the deity to a divine thermal radiation-infested puddle.

"It is useless to challenge me! MUDA!!!"

TRIPLE HEAT!!!

He roared, his palms and mouth glowing as he got ready to unleash his new attack.

LEAP!!!

SOMERSAULT!

FLYING KICK!!!

And The World stopped his barrages, before kicking off the ground as it flipped into a flying kick, getting ready to shove his foot into the god's spine.

The CPU was cornered, but far from conceding as he responded to the vampire.

"Then let's see you keep up that spirit, DIO!"

CROSS!!!

CLENCH!

ATTRACTION!!!

Brave Heart roared as he crossed his arms, costs closed as he attracted both opponents as we're pulled towards him as he hunched.

DIO and his stand were pulled towards the god as the vampire laughed.

"And here I thought you had a functioning brain! That gravitational must have crushed any brain function as well as the ground if you think pulling in me closer will aid you!" He belittled the CPU's tactical intelligence as the god smiled in return.

"Is that so?"

OUTSTRETCH!!!

"Divine Decimation!"

GRAVITATIONAL ENERGY!!!

BASS BOOST!!!

EXPAND!!!

He asked, their faces a foot apart before pushing his arms out as he yelled the SP Skill, his hands flexed.

A tremendous force of repulsive gravity channeled from his solar plexus before being released omnidirectionally from every point of his body, a bass-boosting sound was emitted as he flexed.

REPEL!!!

GUARD!-

CRASH!!!

The CPU repelled the shadow stand into the ground as it blocked, unharmed but not unmoved.

REPEL!!!

HEAT!!!

REFLECT!!!

And DIO launched his ability, only for it to be repelled and reflected right back into his face as he was surprised, a look of shock etched on his features before being engulfed in the heat energy as his clothes were scorched as his body was melted by his attack.

"YOU SON OF A-!"

SCORCH!

MELT!!!

The creature of the night got his swear cut off, realizing he was outsmarted in a battle of not brute strength, but underlying wits as his technique destroyed him.

BURN!!!

This effect subsequently caused The World to be burned into nothingness, as his master had succumbed to his heat.

MAGIC SHIELD!!!

CRASH!!!

CRATER!!!

The gravity reached towards his allies as Kars activated a magic barrier, using his SP to create a spherical translucent blue shield that encompassed the group, blocking the gravitational energy as the ground was destroyed as a massive crater was created from it as a groundbreaking crash was the effect as it touched the ground.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

BURST!!!

The crater became large enough to rival the small lake-shaped lava pit that once existed as Brave Heart roared, his orange aura bursting from within to augment the attack to make sure any trace of DIO was gone.

RUMBLE!!!

FISSURE!

The area became an orange hue as Nebula expended a sizable amount of his reserves to make sure the vampire in his vulnerable state was put down as the ground below him cracked and trembled.

"His power output is unbelievable!" AL commented in awe as Blinx spoke next.

"Is it enough to put DIO down?!" The cat was desperate for the vampiric menace's defeat.

"I hope with my heart...!" Cave truly wanted to believe it was sufficient.

"Please, Nebula!... Defeat him...!" Domio put his faith in his foster father.

"..." Kars' silence was enough, his eyes narrowed and piercing as he stared deep into the fires of battle to witness the victor.

"Rapid Rapture!"

BLAST BARRAGE!!!

BLAST BARRAGE!!!

BLAST BARRAGE!!!

The CPU looked down as he followed up with another skill.

EXPLOSIONS!!!

Hundreds of KI blasts rained from the sky as they all crashed down on the crater as he propelled himself up so that his blasts would pass his last known position.

CHARGE...!

But his assault was not finished, before he cupped his hands, to release his EXE Drive.

SHINE!

The blue ball of KI was being charged as it shifted the aura from the surroundings from a luminous orange to a mix of blue and orange.

"Shinku Hadōken!!!"

BLAST!!!

BEAM!

The CPU's eyes contracted before firing the powerful beam to the ground.

CRASH!!!

EXPAND!!!

HUGE EXPLOSION!!!

The large blue beam of godly KI fired down before crashing into the ground, creating a large blue dome that expanded once more as it engulfed the sole pillar that the shield resided on as everything was engulfed in the crater before an explosion that rocked the surrounding wasteland was made.

The shielded few flinched sans Kars as all he did was add a touch more mana into the shield as he stood.

SMOKE!...

SMOKE!...

SMOKE!...

Their view was clouded from the smoke, the attack producing more of it than an industrial plant as they waited in anxiousness.

WIND MAGIC!

GUST!!!

Kars forced some wind from his same open palm as it cleared the clouds to reveal a panting Brave Heart, spent from his last attack.

"Ha... Ha... Ha..." The CPU breathed as he looked around, looking for any sign of DIO as he sensed for his dark energy.

"Did he beat him?!" The Loweean asked, on the verge of celebration.

"If it were that simple, AL would have killed him."

DISPERSE!

Kars shook his head, dispersing the shield.

"As much as I hate to agree with Kars, he has a point, Dom." The martial artist saw the reasoning as fair due to what he had to sacrifice to even corner DIO.

"Rats." Blinx gripped his Sweeper, his optimism fading away as he could already guess the outcome.

"Let us not lose hope. This could have very well been the finishing blow. I see nor feel any lingering trace of him." Cave started as she began to feel out for the feeling of fear that complemented his presence.

Brave Heart heard them from above as he was not as keen to believe the vampire was dead even after all that.

'That DIO isn't one to drop like a fly. I have to keep my guard up...-'

THROB!!!

Pain was widespread across the god's body as the side effect of using KI and gravity took their toll.

LURCH!

"Hnng!" He strained to keep himself afloat as he lurched over, some blood escaping his clenched teeth before he held his stomach and wiped his mouth.

DESCEND!

He descended as he wanted to stop his flight to put less of a strain on his body, the fewer powers in use, the quicker the recovery time.

LAND!

BFFT!!!

IMPALE!!!

But as soon as he touched the ground...!

The CPU's irises became white with shock as the fabric and blood burst forth from his chest, Brave Heart looking down to see a fist coated in fear energy as it was soaked in divine blood.

DIO wore a maniacal smile as the tables had turned once again, in his favor as he stood with a hand through the deity as he stood.

"NO!!! You were the chosen one!" The temporal feline cried in anguish.

"Poor choice." The Ultimate Life Form poked.

"Fuck off!" The cat swore at the alien.

"Nebula!!!" Domio, Cave, and AL yelled in concern and shock as they were mortified by the scene before them.

"How does it feel, Brave Heart? To believe that I've been defeated, only to lose your spine upon my appearance?" He made a play on words as he both figuratively and literally contextualized the situation.

"Or are you too much in perpetual agony to speak? But that would betray your title as a GOD to have something as meager as being mortally wounded cause you so much pain!" The bloodsucker yelled as he laughed at his opponent's disadvantageous state.

To a certain extent, the vampire was correct.

The lingering and slightly ebbing pain from the consequences of spiritual-gravitational combat still tolled his body, not to mention his now somewhat fatigued state from his desperate combination of attacks, added with the fact that he now had a hole in his body struck from fear energy to not only wound but cripple him, it did not bode well for the CPU's survival.

"But... H-How..." Brave Heart needed to know.

"You reflected my heat onto me, but I managed to stop time as a single blood cell before moving far enough from the gravity to be out of your range." He explained as the group's eyes widened.

"He can stop time at such a small level of existence?! As well as retain his consciousness?!" The RRoD agent questioned the legitimacy of his claim with disbelief.

"That is bullshit!" The pyro warrior refused to believe it, but it did not change the reality of the situation at hand.

DARKEN...

The gaping mouth out the god closed as he clenched his teeth, shadows falling under his eyes as he stood there, silently.

"Well? Have any last words before your agonizing death?"

ゴゴゴゴ!!!

DIO condescendingly asked as he beamed menacingly.

The god drew a long sigh before beginning to respond, amid his situation.

"I'd say you have my back to the wall...If I still had one." Brave Heart quipped, the blood trailing from his mouth as he did.

"I wonder what gave you that impression?"

FLEX!

DIO alluded to as he flexed his muscles, to cause him more pain.

"...T-The same thing t-that gives you the i-impression... I've been wounded." The CPU started as the bloodsucker gave a dry laugh to that.

"Are you in so much pain you deny your current situation? It's best to put you out of your misery if insanity reaches you before blood loss." The vampire responded as the god snicker.

"Heh... Heheh...! Heheheh! Hehehehaha!!!" A laugh started to bubble in the CPU's throat as his eyes were revealed to be small and veined.

"Hahahahahaha! HAHAHAHAHA!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Brave Heart cackled, the irony of the situation infecting him to laugh voraciously, as DIO grew irritated at his perceived insulting gesture.

"STOP LAUGHING!"

TUG!

TUG!

TUG!

DIO fumed as he tried to pull out his hand, to no avail.

"What?!" The grey-haired villain was confused as he struggled to remove his arm from the hole he created.

"What's going on?!" Cave questioned as Domio and Blinx shared the sentiment.

"I don't know, but it might be in our favor." Blinx had a glimmer of faith.

"But how did he get the jump on DIO?" The boy was lost.

This feeling was shared with AL until he recalled a certain attack that Nebula suffered.

"!!!" The fire user realized as a shit-eating grin was formed on his face as he muttered to himself. "Of course!... How could I forget!"

The Ultimate Life Form was slightly out of it until he did some quick calculations and scenarios, and meshed them with the barokinesis that the CPU possessed until he came across the likeliest conclusion.

A raised brow was the indicator of his calculations being complete as he folded his arms in expectation.

"Have you already forgotten? Figures, since that heat might have fried your 1990s CRT monitor of a brain." The god smack talked.

"Forgotten...?!"

CRUSH!!!

DIO still had not gotten the memo as he soon felt his arm being crushed within the space he created in the deity's body.

"Seriously? Do I have to spell it out for you? Fine. Something along the lines of domestic abuse I believe?" Brave Heart reminded as it became clear to the vampire.

"!!!" It dawned upon DIO, finally realizing his folly as he looked down at his contorting arm as he remembered why this was happening to him.

He had his stand punch a hole through Nebula.

The wound was already there.

He punched.

Nothing.

TWIST!!!

SHINE!!!

CLUTCH!

His eyes widened with horror upon his realization as Nebula twisted his upper body as his gravity had the invader ensnared, before grabbing his neck and focusing share energy into the palm of his hand.

"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

BURN!!!

DIO cried in agony as the share energy burned his skin to the touch, his fear energy being inactive as it cost him dearly for his distracted demeanor.

"Underestimation is one of the gravest sins to commit in battle. A transgression you've committed time and time again." Brave Heart talked down to the vampire as he continued.

"And because of this, you will soon meet your end!"

BRIGHTEN!!!

CRUSH!!!

He shouted as he increased the gravitational pull of the space within his chest as the light simultaneously brightened, his limits having increased during the fight to inflict more damage on DIO.

HEAT UP!!!

DIO's pupils brightened before shining as he seethed at the CPU, attempting to use his plasma vision to annihilate him on the spot.

PUSH!

LASER BEAM!!!

Brave Heart pressed his index knuckle and thumb deeper into the vampire's neck, causing his head to reel back as he fired, the plasma beam shooting up into the sky.

ZOOM!!!

CRATER...!

It shot into the air before racing to the moon in a few seconds, causing a barely noticeable crater from their distance.

"Did he just...?!" Blinx was agape.

"Indeed." Was Kars' response as both eyebrows were raised.

DIO snarled in discontent as his attack failed, before looking back down to a confident smirk.

"Face it. You've been bested. By a weaker foe, no less. You just got finessed, son!"

SUCTION!

TEAR!!!

BLEED!!!

"FUCK!"

Brave Heart yelled as the bloodsucker's arm was sucked into the center of the space within his chest, a small black hole the size of a speck of dust being all that was left of the appendage.

LIFT!!!

WIND BACK!!!

The deity turned to face the vampire before lifting him off the ground, his neck still being burned by the divine energies as Brave Heart reeled back another first.

SHINE!!!

GLOW!

It became a glowing white with blue outlines as share energy was channeled into it, with a bright shine radiating from it as it flew towards DIO.

"HAA!!!" Brave Heart roared as the spit and blood flew from his mouth in determination as he shouted.

"Do it!" The four on the sidelines stood as Kars' eyes widened with suspense.

The fist was inches away from the vampire's face, about to deal the decisive blow-

PUNCH!!!

Until it didn't.

DISSIPATE!!!

The CPU's hand was recoiling, relaxed as the share energy was trailing from his fingertips, the majority of the energy being destroyed on DIO's face as it was consumed.

RECOIL!!!

And the deity's face was being turned to the side forcefully as he felt blinding pain as his left eye squinted, and his right widened as he flinched, more fluids escaping his nose AND mouth.

STRIKE!!!

SHOCKWAVE!!!

But what was the most concerning, and the reason it happened in the first place, was due to The World with its one remaining arm clocking the god across the mouth, the gravity barrier being the only thing that made him avoid his head being struck off his shoulders.

'The World...!'

TWIRL!!!

SMASH!

Realization dawned upon him as his eyes looked to the left to see the dark phantom floor him as his body fell to the ground, spinning rapidly before colliding with the surface.

REGEN!!!

KICK!!!

DIO regenerated his arm almost instantly as he winded up his leg before kicking him in the side as he recoiled.

DOUBLE SIDE KICK!!!

"Urk!-"

WHOOSH!

And followed up the combo with a bone-shattering side kick alongside the menacing stand, the vampire kicking his neck as The World kicked his groin as the two were side to side.

TUMBLE!!!

SKID!

CRASH!...

DUST...!

Brave Heart tumbled and ragdolled until he hit the crater's wall, causing a large dust cloud as he finally stopped moving.

"What is this psychological torture!" The feline temporal being cried in mental agony. "I thought he was winning!" He continued, exasperated.

"Damnit!" AL clenched his fist in disappointment and anger.

"Is he ok?" Cave wanted to know the status of their fighter.

"Whether he is or isn't, I don't think DIO is going to wait and see!"

RAISE!!!

Domio pointed as the monster of interest raised his arm and pointed his fingers towards the dust.

SWEAT!...

SPEED UP!

He then made his arm sweat from the top of his shoulder, before making the liquid perspiration move across his arm as it increased in velocity.

HEAT UP!

GLOW!!!

The moisture then glowed as they sped up, being infused with heat until they reached the tip of his fingers.

SWEAT!!!

ZOOM!!!

And before they left the bloodsucker's hand, he ejected a second sweat gland from his fingertips to enhance the speed at which they left, reaching 10,000 times the speed of sound.

SWEAT SWARM!!!

Pellets upon pellets of heated sweat projectiles tore through the dust cloud as tens of hundreds of explosions lit up the god's last known position as he laughed.

"Hahahaha! Another brilliant innovation by yours truly!"

SWEAT!!!

BLAST!!!

He exhibited pride in his work as he fired at the direction, cackling as he created more ammunition for his plasma projectiles.

The sidelined spectators were agape with another wave of horror as they feared for the CPU's state after this attack if there was anything left of him.

"We have to stop him!"

SPRINT!!!

Domio couldn't stand by as he rushed the vampire before AL or Cave could grab him.

"Domio, wait!-" AL reached.

"Hold on!-" Cave stretched.

JUMP!!!

BEND!-

The boy jumped before bending his ones and turning to his side to deliver a zooming dropkick.

TURN!

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!-"

GRAB!!!

His course of action was halted when DIO's head swiveled to face him as he continued laughing before The World, unbeknownst to him, used a single arm to grab both of his already broken ankles.

RAISE!-

SLAM!!!

"?!" The Loweean preteen's face warped from intolerance to shitting bricks, ignoring the shooting pain from his legs the best he could as he was raised and slammed into the ground.

THROW!

SPIN!!!

REEL!-

BOOOM!!!

SHATTER!

Domio ragdolled as the stand threw his legs up as he vertically kartwheeled before winding back and sending a punch to his breastplate so powerful that it shattered the armor completely, sending ice shards that flew in every direction as the boy regurgitated blood and vomit.

"UAK!"

WHOOSH!

Domio's eyes went blank as he vomited, before being sent towards the group.

CATCH!!!

SKID!...

AL caught the child as his face was still blank as his eyes were white.

"Oh my- What the hell just happened to him?!" Blinx's tone was full of fear as he looked at the child's state, approaching him.

"He tried it."

AL grimaced in frustration as he wasn't fast enough to spare him from that unfortunate fate.

"How did he even get blown back?!" The cat was thoroughly spooked. "... Was it what I think it was?" He asked the fighter.

"Nothing but. The World blew him back with an attack. But to do this... DIO's not on a level we can hope to fight at now."

SWARM!!!

The fighter admitted as they looked to the continuous barrage he launched upon Brave Heart, the vampire now using both hands.

INSPECT!

Cave checked for his vitals, putting her fingers on the side of his windpipe.

"...He's still alive, thankfully. But I doubt he'll be fully conscious anytime soon." The soldier reported.

"How unfortunate. Well, it would be, if not for me. I deem him worthy to at least see the potential demise of his father since he spoke so highly of him not too long ago."

POKE!

TRANSFER!

Kars stooped down as he mediated his SP to a healing variant before poking the space between the child's eyebrow as he transferred the energy to him.

Domio's sky blue eyes returned as he got up before holding his head in pain.

"OW!... Urgh..." He cried as he held his head, before holding his stomach as he winced.

"Impossible...!" She looked at the alien.

"Wait... Kars resuscitated him?!" AL was then aback.

"What is even going on anymore." The cat was starting to give up keeping track of current events.

"Hmph." The Ultimate Life Form looked at the child as he got up before looking at the child.

"Let this be a lesson to you so that you think twice before rushing someone that is as far from you in power as the heavens and the earth with no strategy." He spat at the boy who looked down in defeat.

"Al least he tried, unlike you, ya big coward!" Blinx yelled.

"The difference between bravery and stupidity is the result. If he didn't just rush from the impulse of feeling useless... No, it would still end up the same." Kars took back his alternative as the cat hissed at him, as AL gave a piteous head pat.

Cave looked on, feeling bad for the boy, but focusing on the finishing conclusion of the fight as the others followed suit.

DIO finished up his assault before trying another experimental attack.

He ceased his sweating as the explosions followed suit.

SWEAT!!!

He then raised a hand and made it sweat, shooting out a geyser of secretion from his palms and fingers.

PLASMA LASER!!!

BOOM!!!

But before the stream could even reach an inch off of his hand, he heated the water with his heat, creating a beam of plasma energy as the superheated ions rushed as a white beam of thermonuclear destruction.

EXPLOSION!!!

MOLTEN DEBRIS!

Ge launched his final attack as it hit the area before exploding as boulders and rocks went flying, the majority of them being molten.

WINDWAVE!

DIO's hair blew back as he had a sly grin as AL and the others braced themselves through the strong winds before Kars used another barrier to stabilize their position.

"Tch!" The fighter grumbled.

"Hnn!" The soldier gritted.

"Urgh!" The cat guarded.

"Ahh!" The boy yelped.

"Honestly."

MAGIC SHIELD!

The Ultimate Life Form rolled his eyes.

"YOU SHUT UP!"

JET!!!

DEFLECT!

DIO screeched as he lowered his hand before shooting an SRSE beam that was deflected off the magical dome.

"How about doing your job, instead," Kars responded in an amused tone as he caused the vampire to raise a brow.

"As if he could survive that. And don't act like you and the 4th-degree burn victim aren't next." He responded as he menacingly smiled.

"Are you sure about that?" AL memed as he smiled at the vampire, the alien pointing as Blinx and Cave were gawking, causing DIO to look back.

"What in- WHAT THE FUCK?"

REPULSION!!!

The bloodsucker roared in indignation and disbelief as he saw what lay in the clearing smoke.

The dust instantly cleared as the CPU that stood, cross guarding as a visible barrier of gravity was being emitted was breathing heavily.

"B...Baro... B-Barrier...!" Brave Heart stuttered from fatigue as the gravitational shield dispersed.

He stood up tall, his breathing hitched as his body sustained some 1st and few 2nd-degree burns, and more superficial injuries as his vest-like top were now half-destroyed as only some fabric remained on his right side, his left pec and some of his abs visible.

A weird symbol, akin to a birthmark was on his body as it was exposed. Located near the base of his neck on his left side near his shoulder and above his back, a faded pink star shaped mark was present, but could not be seen by the vampire as he was in front of him.

CLENCH...!

The CPU's gloves were busted, the fingers being singed off as the mouths were shredded to just before his wrists. His legwear had exposed patches that contained bloody scratches and nasty burns as his shoes were smoldering and beaten, as he clenched his fists before speaking, his processors having been withdrawn for conservation.

"..." He breathed through his nostrils as he glared at the vampire.

And his yellow eyes still showed the same amount of will to defeat the enemy before him, withstanding the adversity he currently faced.

"You're still alive? The urge to suffer is vast among the lot of you." DIO remarked as he faced the god fully. That glare reminded him all too well of the teenager that he fought, their expressions merging too well for the nightcrawler's liking.

It boiled his blood that he had to look at a face that was associated with most of his suffering during his time on Earth. The veins on his own fists bugled as the association alone caused his mood to sour.

"More like a suggestion at this point... I can still beat the dogshit out of you, even now. I just want you to experience the high of having an advantage before you saunter into the jaws of defeat." Brave Heart spoke his point as the creature of the night dismissed it.

"HA! Impossible. You're a few more plasma waves from death. What could you possibly do? Have a heat stroke?" The vampire refused to believe the deity's words.

"...!"

POSE...!

The CPU's eyes shrank as teeth grit, stooping a bit as he brought his arms beside him, bending them as his hair began to fluently flutter.

"Are you going to shit yourself?" DIO picked on the deity's stance as he laughed.

"No. But you will shit yourself."

LEVITATE!...

Brave Heart retorted as small pebbles and rocks started to levitate as his hair mirrored the debris around him.

DARKEN!

The debris in and around the crater began to levitate as his power's influence spread to even the outside of the depression everyone stood in. They all slowly floated into the air as the area darkened.

BOOM!!!

Brave Heart's hair stood on end as it was flowing vertically as his body was starting to become heavier, his feet sinking into the ground with a loud crash.

SWEAT SWARM!!!

DIO reeled at that, now actually taking the situation seriously as he fired more ionized sweat projectiles.

REDIRECT!!!

EXPLOSIONS!!!

They were unfortunately deflected as they instantly moved in a random direction and hit an adjacent pebble, causing them to explode.

"No, it can't be!" The vampire screamed as he looked in horror, his technique failing to hinder the deity.

"Oh, but it is!" Brave Heart seethed as he continued his process, before tuning out the opponent.

The god focused as he closed his eyes. He visualized the skeletal system of his body as he began his augmentation.

WEIGHT MANIPULATION!

He increased the gravitational weight of his bone structure, creating a much heavier version of his skeletal system as he momentarily struggled to keep himself from sinking into the ground before reducing the weight of his spongy bone section of his bonus to facilitate the soul-crushing amounts of gravity in his skeleton.

His circulatory system was the next to be affected by his course of action, as he switched to visualizing an anatomical circulatory system diagram within his mind.

BLOOD RUSH!

The CPU sent a gravitational impulse that constantly acted as an accelerator to increase the flow of blood within his bloodstream, making his plasma, white and red blood cells speed across his system as his blood became under the influence of his gravity.

ADRENALINE!

His heart began to beat ludicrously quickly from the rush of blood alongside the epinephrine that was released into his system as his already present injuries were smarting substantially less as he continued the process.

VEINS!

Veins and arteries became present on his forearms, biceps, triceps, shoulders, back, quads, hamstrings, calves, and neck as even his face sported a few.

Brave Heart moved on to the last organ group that would be affected by the technique he was activating.

BULK!!!

SHRED!

His muscles inflated somewhat, from his usual chiseled from marble stature to a more bulky and intimidating posture. This change was so apparent that he managed to flex off whatever remaining pieces of fabric his upper body wore in a jarring display of might.

"AYO-" AL staggered as the others, INCLUDING Kars for once shared his sentiment.

Brave Heart had integrated his tendons as they were enhanced by gravitational attraction to keep his muscles and bones from ripping apart from his bones with each movement.

ATTRACTION!

REINFORCE!!!

Alongside applying repulsive gravity to his epimysium, perimysium, and endomysium tissue, causing his muscles to be more resilient to damage as they grew as a side effect from his action as even the muscle fibers themselves underwent this process.

REPULSION!!!

And finally, before he was finished with the process, he reinforced his dermis and epidermis layer of skin with repulsive properties for that extra layer of defense.

DOWNFORCE!!!

DEPRESSION!!!

DIO felt the ground beneath him begin to rumble once more, but in addition to its instability, a wave of oppressive gravity was set upon the vampire as his legs dug into the ground.

"Nani-"

FEAR AURA!

The bloodsucker was caught off guard as he felt the influence of the universal force nearly crush where he stood, if not for the burst of fear energy from within him.

The invader strained to keep eye contact, as his aura protected his vitals from being turned into a pancake flatter than White Heart's bust as he struggled to save face in the presence of hundreds of Gs.

...CRACK!

The shield Kars created even started to crack under the constant pressure that increased each passing moment.

"I do not believe it's in our best interest to linger here if your shield cannot stand up to the G-force," Cave stated as she warily looked at the crack.

"I second that statement." Blinx raised his hand.

"Stow your fears, you spineless cowards."

SNAP!

MAGIC SHIELD!

The Ultimate Life Form felt insulted at the minimal faith they showed in him as he snapped his fingers.

POINT!

SEAL!...

A second barrier overlapped the first as the alien pointed to the original crack as SP flowed from his finger and instantly sealed up the structural breach.

"How is he this overpowered?!" AL was in disbelief at what he was witnessing as the others were on equal grounds.

"Nebula or Kars?" Domio raised a brow.

"Yes." AL, Blinx, and Cave responded in unison.

BURST!!!

OUTSHINE!!!

A white spiking aura shot up from Brave Heart's feet as it quickly encompassed him, a fusion of his gravitational energy and KI as the crater was illuminated by his white aura, drowning out the gold from DIO and the blue from Kars.

Kars squinted his eyes as he contracted his pupils to the size of a pin point to regulate the light to comfortable levels.

The others just closed theirs as they didn't want to risk blindness.

EXPAND!!!

DIO's eyes did the same with the addition of fear energy to mitigate the blinding effects so his pupils were the size of a pencil point, as the two inhumans viewed the spectacle as Brave Heart's light expanded to form a spherical opaque aura that occupied the entire crater.

RAISE!!!

PILLAR!!!

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR!!!!!" The deity's voice yelled, the tone slightly deepening from the effects of his body.

SHINE!...

The dome soon shot in the air as a huge pillar of share energy, gravitational energy, and KI ascended to the heavens as it was visible from the likes of Lastation and even Planeptune as the CPU let loose a fearsome roar, standing tall as he looked up as his eyes open to reveal them glowing white with power.

TREMORS!

FWOOSH!

The entire island rumbled from the show of power as the floating debris was blasted in every direction.

Even the old master that resided on the outskirts laid witness to the beam at the porch of his house as he commented.

"I believe that this battle will be one of the fiercest yet to come." He said, his eyes covered mysteriously by his cone hat as he felt the energies.

Back on the unruly island, the light was subsiding as a figure stood, his back facing an intimidating prelude with monumentally muscular physique to only solidify the effect. He looked over the birthmark donning shoulder and his glowing yellow eyes sent a piercing glare to the vampiric menace.

PSSH!!!

STEAM!!!...

Steam then poured out of his pores in the stead of sweat, the body temperature of the god being so great that his perspiration evaporated on contact with his skin.

BREATHE!

STEAM!

Brave Heart breathed in, before exhaling as a cloud of steam also escaped his breath, his lungs having to use share energy to maintain their optimal state, as oxygen would not only be too rapid to gain for the rate of his blood pressure but the air would also be superheated by his body temperature as well.

But what was the most interesting, was that his singularity in the space of his chest had grown to the size of a marble.

It pulled the steam towards it but left just enough of it to still retain the badass effect that would soon be visible to the others as the light fully subsided.

BURST!!!

DIO was at a loss for words as he marveled in silence at his opponent's state, his brilliant white aura shooting up into the sky as he stood there, the vampire's eyes returning to normal.

Kars felt mutual excitement as he observed the form. He experienced a feeling of slight admiration of the power he amassed from the technique as he put his hands to his side, finally ceasing folding them.

Blinx opened his eyes first to see Brave Heart's form, before being frozen in awe.

"Wowza! He looks like he can take on the world!" The temporal cat's eyes widened.

"Fuck you." DIO spat with an intolerant gaze to the anthropomorphic feline.

"...Nice." AL gave a thumbs up to the cat as his eyes opened before his jaw dropped as he faces his brother from another mother.

"Nebula just became Nebrolic, by the goddess." He started as he felt his energy.

"And his power's through the roof!" The martial artist noted as Domio was held up by the uncle figure as his ankles were still gone.

"I knew he could pull through! Just wish I could have done the same..." He sported an ecstatic grin before it cooled down to a tired smile.

SWAT!

HEAL!

The alien said nothing as he swatted his hand in the direction of the boy's ankles as a green magical aura swirled around them.

Domio felt the constant burning pain of one ankle completely fade as the other ankle was reduced to the severity of a sprain.

"Why didn't you heal me completely?" The Loweean asked.

"I'll heal the other one if your father wins." The Ultimate Life Form gave a condition for his action.

"KICK HIS BUTT, DAD! I WANNA WALK AGAIN! LET'S FREAKING GOOOOOOOOO!!!" The boy was now completely invested in the fight, momentarily forgetting he had a now sprained ankle as a single blue eye glowed in determination.

"The country's savior may have very well appeared before us." A small smile was back on the redhead's face as she looked at the CPU.

"Under Pressure." Brave Heart spoke out, causing everyone to be momentarily confused.

"Nani the fuck?" DIO asked.

"The name of this technique. And what you will be from now on for quite some time." He explained as he pointed a finger.

POINT!

"What drivel-" The posh vampire brushed aside the god's words, his eyes narrowing.

FEAR AURA!!!

However, they widened as they looked at the star shaped symbol near his neck. What could only be described as severe PTSD came over the vampire's expression as his aura exploded to cover a larger area, easily enveloping both him and The World.

"No... It cannot BE!" Screeched the invader, his eyes becoming deranged from the revelation, pointing as his hand shook in rage from the AUDACITY that the false god had, being a part of that accursed lineage. "Of all people... You, it just had to be YOU!" Sputtering into a spiel of ire, DIO was slowly closing in on his wit's end.

"Yeah, I'm gonna be the one to finish you-"

Not that, you simpleton!" Disregarded the vampire, causing a comical saucer plate to replace the eye that was glaring at him. "The star on your neck! Why the actual FUCK do you have that? HOW do you have that?! ANSWER ME, NOW!" He demanded, veins forming on his forehead as his previous composure went down the drain in exchange for seemingly unprecedented fury.

"Why does it matter to you." Facing him head-on, Brave Heart's visage regained a serious composure as he spoke to his opponent. "Did my father do something to you?" He raised a brow.

"Who is your father... And why hasn't he left for milk." The words could be mistaken for a curse with the way they the villain's mouth. His facial expression to boot mirrored someone drinking spoiled milk with a grimace only rivaled by the deepest amounts of disgust.

"..." The CPU remained quiet. He knew his father's name, of course. Yet he felt apprehensive about revealing it to someone like DIO, lest he hunt him down on the spot, if not after the battle in the jaws of defeat.

So he did something of the sort, instead.

"George."

"...What?" His wrath was replaced by confusion.

"Yeah. My dad's name is George." He repeated.

"..." It was DIO's turn to remain silent as that response wasn't the one he expected. Because of that, he started to calm down. There was NO WAY that bloodline could exist here, he was in another dimension for crying out loud. Just some random birthmark that so happened to look similar to the one on his neck, and subsequently that rotten family tree.

"My GRANDFATHER is Jonathan-"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! UREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYY!!!-" Pupils disappearing as veins were forming in his eyes, an outright disturbing sound escaped the man's throat as he reeled in frustration that made his head spin from the information revealed.

"Er... Why is he acting in that manner?" Asked the redhead soldier as she turned to the dark-skinned fighter.

"Beats me, must really hate Jonathans." Shrugged AL as he was lost, not understanding the context one bit.

"Looks like Nebula might've chosen the wrong day to exist." Grimaced the Time Sweeper as he looked at the raging creature of the night.

GUST!!!

Brave Heart's steam was ripped away from him by the extremely powerful winds as a result of the hissy fit that his adversary was having, his voice alone containing the power necessary to do so as the shadow-wielding monster of a man faced the sky.

"THOSE BLASTED JOESTAAAAAAAAARS!!!"

SPIKE!!!

His emotional outburst caused his aura to wildly flux with a fearsome roll that seemed sporadic and unsettling as he continue his words.

"TIME AND TIME AGAIN, YOUR WRETCHED FAMILY STANDS IN MY WAY! I should have known your ability to wield gravity, don their birthmark, and the name of your grandfather wasn't a mere coincidence!" He fumed, remembering his words.

'Do you believe in gravity?...'

That being said, the similarities between fate and gravity were ever-present, as being pulled in by the fundamental force of gravity, was akin to being pulled towards your destiny by fate.

While not the exact same on the surface level, their concepts aligned to an extent that made them be perceived as if they were identical from a particular angle.

The same way that every object has its own gravitational field, mirrors to the same way that all individuals have their own fate. Just as two people could be pulled together by gravity, can be mirrored to a certain extent by the agents of fate itself organizing said meeting.

Not expecting his theory to be so literal in the form of Brave Heart, his context for it was reaffirmed to a painful extent as such a person, a deity of all people, someone of high status like himself added with the power to mold the metaphorical reigns of fate was the wall that stood in his path.

It came down to the lineage so adamant in ruining his goals ascending to lengths that were thought inconceivable, challenging his very outlook on the idea that caused his blood to boil like never before.

"YOUR MEDDLING TRANSCENDS EVEN SPACE AND TIME ITSELF!"

DARKEN!...

His pupils returning, although pinpricks, he was ready for the fight of his life. The area around him temporarily darkened as the Ultimate Life Form squinted his eyes, sensing his power mimic his aura.

"I won't allow this cruel joke that fate has doled to disrupt my mind! You will fall, Brave Heart!" Determination fueled his desire to win as he brought his fist in front of him and clenched it.

"Don't bet on it." Warned the godly fighter in return as he flashed a small snigger, only furthering the anger that his enemy felt towards his very existence. "A poor wager with fool's gold is the ultimate insult to any gambler, no?" He further pressed, agitating the vampire.

"If you believe becoming a locomotive steam engine will help you, then I will put a stop to this trainwreck!" His eyes shined red for a moment as some veins formed on his muscles.

ZOOM!!!

Brave Heart said nothing before he seemingly rushed the vampire, his frame rapidly approaching DIO.

APPROACH!

The god closed the gap between the two of them in moments, accelerating tens of thousands of times the speed of sound in a breath.

GUARD!!!

The stand user quickly guarded with his phantom partner, The World cross guarding to block the blow.

'Hah. An attack of that speed will mean nothing!' The bloodsucker belittled.

PHASE!

But to his surprise, DIO was met with no contact as the CPU phased right through him.

"What?!" The invader was taken by storm as he realized what had just occurred to him. The World eased his guard by just a fraction.

'An afterimage!'

KICK-OFF!!!

BOOM!!!

VANISH!-

He reacted before Brave Heart actually moved from his position, causing the ground, crater, and surface-level behind him to be blown into cubes before he vanished from a feat of terrifying speed, his aura dispersing as he left.

REAPPEAR!-

PIERCE!!!

APPROACH!

Before reappearing beside the vampire, his face filled with intention to harm as his hand was in front of DIO's face, The World flinching from its head being ran through by his arm as the CPU's palm swiftly approached the villain's head.

CONTORT!

DIO was awestruck, by the sudden burst in speed as well as his words being proved wrong before his feeling of shock was replaced by pain as he felt his face being contorted as it began to fold in on itself, mimicking his stand.

ATTRACTION!

CLASP!

His pain was interrupted as he felt his face be pulled to the palm before him as his face was stalled from its inevitable destruction of a brief instant before it connected with the limb.

GIANT SHOCKWAVE!

SHATTER!

VOOM!!!!!!

CRASH!!!

The shockwave from DIO's head being grabbed was powerful enough to instantly shatter Kars' outermost barrier as the CPU slammed the bloodsucker's skull into the crater wall at Mach 40,000.

SPLATTER!!!

BOOM!!!

SHOCKWAVE!!!

The crater wall that the back of the vampire's cranium instantly exploded as his head was decimated by the force as blood and brain matter drenched the god's arm before the second shockwave blew everything back as his aura was cut off.

MAGIC!

The crack on the initial barrier became more severe as Kars had to constantly provide a flow of SP to keep it from shattering.

REGEN!

DIO's body fell back as the gravitational influence left him, before regenerating his head with a seething snarl as he recovered from the head-splitting blow.

BICYCLE KICK!

"DAMN YOU!" He roared before planting a foot on the ground as he traded the other, going for a retaliatory bicycle kick.

DODGE!

GRAB!!!

Brave Heart was on X Games mode as he dodged the attack by stepping back, before grabbing the vampire's leg.

ELBOW!!!

CRUSH!!!

The male CPU then clenched his fist before raising his elbow and driving it into the crotch of the black-clad menace with the force of half a billion pounds.

DIO's face went pale as every man within a 1000-mile vicinity cringed.

SPIN!!!

TWISTER!

The god wasn't finished as he took advantage of his opponent's incapacitated state as he swung him around, at a velocity that caused a twister to form from its sheer speed.

THROW!!!

Brave Heart threw the grey-haired bastard to the opposite side of thr crater, which had been destroyed prior as the victim of continental ballbusting finally recovered from his testicular cancer-inducing blow.

ROLL!!!

WHOOSH!!!

EXPLOSION!

The vampire then aerially rolled out of the way, using his stand glide to dodge a beam of KI that rushed past before blowing up behind him.

JET!!!

DIO quickly fired his SRSE beam from his eyes, enhancing them with fear energy to pack the necessary punch he desperately needed.

EVADE!

PIERCE!!!

Unfortunately, the CPU craned his neck to casually evade the beam, the move piercing through the rubble behind him.

ATTRACT!!!

DOUBLE HEEL KICK!!!

REPULSION!!!

Before bum-rushing the bloodsucker as he used his gravity to close the gap between the two of them as he double heel kicked the villain's spinal cord with repulsive gravity, sending him flying.

ZOOM!!!

SOMERSAULT!!!

PRESS!-

REPULSE!!!

He quickly pushed off the ground with the same repulsive force before some resulting continuously until reaching the vampire's height as he pressed his hand into the creature of the night's chest before blasting him with his repulsive force.

"Urgh!"

SLAM!!!-

BFFT!

SLIDE...!

DIO braced himself as he used his stand to cushion his landing before he slammed into the ground, creating another crater, and stopping time to resume it outside the depression.

WHOOSH!!!

REEL!!!

SHINE!

Brave Heart willed himself to move as he grabbed his fist in DIO's direction before being dragged by the attractive force of gravity, reeling his other hand in share energy, ready to send the monster to his doom.

BFFT!-

CRASH!!!

The vampire had the reaction time to see the blow coming before using his stand to pause linear time just before he was hit to dodge the blow.

SWEAT!

HEAT!!!

SWAT!!!!

DIO then collected his sweat on his fingertips before ionizing them with heat and throwing them into the dust cloud to inflict damage on the god.

REPULSE!

The blasts of plasma flew at the cloud before being stopped mid-flight and shit back at its caster with speeds almost too fast for the target to handle as he barely jumped out of the way as they exploded below him.

"!"

JUMP!!!

KA-BOOM!

DIO reacted as he hopped into the air by several feet to dodge the projectiles.

ZOOM!!!

STRAIGHT!-

GASH!

Brave Heart emerged from the dust as he lunged with a blitzing right straight that the vampire scraped by with a gash on his cheek as he was almost blindsided by the sudden speed.

GRAVITATE!-

BOOM!!!

The CPU followed up with a body blow to the gut as he used his attractive force on his fist to auto-aim towards DIO's solar plexus.

"HUAK!" The vampire ejected a gob of blood from his mouth as his core shook from the strike, lurching forward as he recoiled.

UPPERCUT!!!

THOOM!

The menace wasn't taking that attack sitting down, as he let loose a close-range uppercut, blasting the chin of Brave Heart as the deity forcefully held his teeth shut with gravity as he endured the blow.

"!!!"

HEADBUTT!!!

The blue CPU's eyes widened as he felt resistance for the first time, as he staggered before slamming his forehead into the vampire's with his Attraction.

CRASH!!!

GAZE!-

DIO was sent onto the ground as both forearms and a leg crashed with him as he cringed in pain, looking up to see the god reel a dangerously powerful punch as he honed in.

DODGE!!!

PUNCH!

BOOM!!!

The bloodsucker rolled back before pushing off his hands into a crouched slide just before the hand met with the ground, creating a massive crater as the floor exploded into cubic chunks.

GUARD!

VANISH!!!

"He's gone!-" DIO was interrupted.

REAPPEAR!-

SHOULDER!!!

SHOCKWAVE!

The bloodsucker guarded with his stand from the winds before his forearms were put through pressure as Brave Heart rushed the villain as his radii and ulnas almost crumbed from the initial contact.

"Tch!!!" The bloodsucker snarled as he blocked a painstaking shoulder from the god as the two were sent flying forward from the momentum of the attack.

GRAVITY BARRAGE!!!

Brave Heart initiated glorious melee combat as he exchanged a bombardment of gravitationally enhanced strikes as DIO perceived thousands of fists flying toward him.

SCRAPE!!!

GASH!!!

SLICE!!!

BIFF!!!

Self-preservation took priority over the vampire's suffering as the dark monster immediately went to blocking, narrowly evading, and countering the strikes that came his way.

BLOCK!

JAB!

UPPERCUT!!!

BLOODY COUGH!

DIO blocked a painful left hook from Brave Heart before returning the favor with a jab to the adam's apple, which was stonewalled before the movement was retaliated with a body uppercut to the left pectoral that caused the vampire's heart to skip a beat out of inflammation as some blood flew from his mouth.

FEAR STAB!!!-

DUCK!

HIGH KICK!!!

Fear energy was infused with the next blow as the creature of the night reached forward with a straight chop to strike the eyes of his opponent, before the CPU ducked the attempt before high kicking the evil opponent, crushing his windpipe with excess repulsive gravity.

CLUTCH!!!

KICK!!!

PLASMA BREATH!!!

Pain coursed through the invader's body before he shrugged it off to the best of his ability as he clutched the deity's leg, pinning him in an awkward position before sending his leg into Brave Heart's groin, stunning the god before screaming at him, firing a plasma beam from his mouth with a geyser of spit being superheated.

RAGDOLL!!!

"Baro Barrier!"

BARRIER!

The initial damage was felt by the CPU as he was blasted back, being engulfed in the large white blast of ionized destruction before expanding his personal gravity barrier to protect himself.

Brave Heart stopped his recoil as he deactivated the SP Skill.

STEAM!!!

He swiveled his head to find where DIO had gone, breathing out another concentrated ball of steam.

PLASMA VISION!!!

EXPLOSION!!!

His location was soon revealed in the form of plasma vision that blindsided the CPU, causing him to be blown away as ionized flames exploded from the contact point.

"Shit!"

FWOOSH!!!

The deity cursed as he was pelted, his passive shield minimizing the damage, although not by much thanks to the chaotic state of matter and potency of the attack.

STEP!-

SONIC BOOM!!!

SPRINT!!!

Tumbling became traversing as Brave Heart got to his feet before sprinting, His speed exceeding 42,000 times the speed of sound as he increased his level of power output during that short skirmish.

STAND GLIDE!!!

He sensed the vampire approaching as he flew beside the god, the two racing to the east as they continued their battle.

VANISH!

DIO disappeared, not from time stop, but in a burst of speed as Brave Heart looked in a random direction, pinpointing where the vampire was before vanishing as well.

"Let's go."

VANISH!!!

The CPU invited the challenge, ready to put the one-dimensional pest in his place.

OPEN!

Back with the others, Kars had his eyes closed, before opening them as he located the position of the two combatants.

"What's the matter?" Cave asked as the Ultimate Life Form turned to her.

"I've found their location." He noted as AL, Domio, and Blinx looked to him as well.

"How." The martial artist interjected.

"By sensing the trails of Nebula's SP and tracing it back to his origin, as well as this other, darker variation of energy for DIO. I believe you coined the term as fear energy?" The alien explained as AL's eyes shrunk at the explanation in surprise.

"But even if you can sense them, how are we gonna get there? We can feel their attacks, but we can't even see them." The time cat asked.

Kars was silent as the ground shook. He pointed a thumb upwards, as the ground below the 5 individuals broke off from the crater floor as it slowly ascended into the air, wind magic being the vector to raise them.

LEVITATE!!!

"Huh?!"

HALT!

WHOOOSH!!!

Domio looked down as he saw the ground become smaller before they floated about the same height as an average skyscraper, and flew in a straight line to the battle.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

STOP!...

FLOAT...

The four yelled as they were not prepared for the sudden spike in speed as they made it to the fight in mere seconds, easily closing the gap from the two fighters before stopping.

Inertia left the four as they felt the whiplash before trying to regain their senses.

"And here we are." The Ultimate Life Form presented, the floating platform of scorched earth increased in a protective spherical shield soared above the battle.

"That... Was stupidly broken." Blinx spoke.

"I know," Kars responded. "But let's observe what's happening below us, shall we?" He peered down to observe as the others followed.

...

SHOCKWAVE!

Silence was the adjective as the five looked down, before a booming shockwave emitted as they were blown back bu the wind currents, the shield violently shaking as the Ultimate Life Form tensed up, the group wobbling from the pressure.

SHOCKWAVE FLURRY!!!

WHOOSH!!!!!!

Below them, multiple shockwaves resounded, their positioning sporadic and timing fervently rapid, the wind becoming on the scale of a small typhoon as the two warriors exchanged blows at sub relativistic speeds.

CRASH!!!

EXPLODE!!!

SHOCKWAVES!!!

The ground below them erupted into the sky from the sheer pressure of their blows as it soon exploded in all directions as the epicenter of each wave of pressure sent more and more debris flying, the shield that Kars made tanking boulder after boulder, to thr point where he had to create a redirecting current of wind to stave off the hazardous objects coming their way.

"This is becoming truly amusing...!"

DEBRIS!!!-

WIND DOME!

Kars spoke as he set up precautionary measures.

ATTRACTION!-

DROPKICK!!!

ENORMOUS SHOCKWAVE!!!

POWERFUL GUST!

The shockwaves continued until one final, much bigger variant appeared, large enough to blow all of the underlying debris sky high as it caused a gust of wind that nearly blew the shield away, as Brave Heart sent a dropkick augmented by Attraction into the villain's collarbone.

"ACK!-"

FWOOSH!

DIO guffawed blood, being shot towards the horizon as he felt his body was hit with a bullet train with a rocket engine strapped on its roof while being pulled by a giant construction rubber band towards the vehicle.

CHARGE!

"Jūryoku Hadōken!"

BLAST!!!

The CPU flew after the vampire, charging a pale blue ball of KI was charged into his hands, gravitationally amplified by his active technique as it rippled in the air with baronic pressure.

ZOOM!

A blast the size of a building erupted from the god's hands, the attack quickly closing in on the duffed dark vampire.

HEAT!!!

DIO came to his senses before witnessing the approaching ball of death and stuck his hands out, firing heat from them to slow it down before it reached him.

PLASMA!!!

The blast slowed, but not by much as he added his what into the mix, crating his ionized beams of destruction, increasing the resistance.

HEAT UP...!!!

PLASMA VISION!!!

The blue blast slowed even more, but in the end, it was his plasma vision that he was stalling for, that managed to cancel out the attack.

EXPLOSION!!!

TUMBLE!

CATCH!

The pink ion beam made contact and detonated as a large purple explosion that sent him recoiling as he stumbled in the air before catching himself with his stand.

ZOOM!!!

PHASE!

PHASE!

PHASE!

ゴゴゴゴ!!!

VANISH!!!!

Brave Heart dashed ahead of the smoke cloud before appearing in front of it and phasing as he moved closer in a zig-zag fashion before vanishing in front of the vampire as he bored a menacing look into the bloodsucker's eyes.

TURN!-

PUNCH!!!

SHOCKWAVE!

DIO was momentarily spooked before he turned around, seeing where the CPU moved off to, only to collect a blitzing right hook as his face was pulled before pushed by the forces of gravity, alongside a blurring fist.

DUBSTEP FART!

TIME STOP!

"ZA WARUDO!" DIO yelled for the first time in a long time before his trajectory was stopped by his stand.

GRAB!

The vampire recoiled before stopping time as he steadied himself, before rushing the frozen warrior.

"WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"

RUSH!!!

The World moved away from its master as the dark-clad creature of the night rushed straight for the CPU's heart, his hand tensed as he close din for thr vital point.

MOVE!

Brave Heart stared at the approaching opponent as he was absolutely still, before moving his left shoulder back right as he was about to be struck.

"!!!"

SPIN!-

BACK PUNCH!

DIO's eyes widened his mouth slightly dropping from the inherent shock before his opponent completed the rotation he was in and back punched him in the temple.

KNEE!!!

TWIRL!

ELBOW!!!

Brave Heart followed up with a knee to the base of the vampire's chin as his teeth clattered, before spinning again as he twirled into a lateral elbow to the cheekbone, all his attacks locking on to the desired targets thanks to the CPU's gravity.

SWEEP KICK!!!

RISE!

UPPERCUT!!!

GRAB!-

The adventurer god crouched into a sweep kick as the bloodsucker's foot was offset, causing DIO to trip as the CPU ascended from his crouched position into a spinal rearranging uppercut before grabbing the grey-haired menace's face in the same breath.

ATTRACTION!!!

REPULSION!!!

ZOOM!!!

Brave Heart used the gravitational pull to the planet to send the skull of the opponent to the ground at unnerving speeds, as he used the repulsive gravity from the front of his hand to increase the speed as DIO felt his head violently vibrate from the gravitational pressure.

SLAM!!!

BLOODY SPLATTER!!!

CRACK!...

Blood, bone, and brain matter spewed from the once head of the vampire mutant before the ground began to break apart before pausing due to the stopped time around them.

"HAA!"

BLAST!!!

BAKOOOM!!!

TIME RESUMES!!!

And before time could properly resume, the god placed his hand onto the chest of the vampire as he released an explosion of KI that singed a hole through his chest as he yelled.

SEISMIC EARTHQUAKE!!!

The explosion of blue KI added with the gravitational pressure of the head slam caused a seismic event that shook Leanbox to its core.

WHOOSH!!!

HALT!

AL, Kars, Blinx, Domio, and Cave awed the attack as the explosion, as they saw a white light fly up and float above the smoke and dust clouds.

STEAM!

CHARGE...!

Brave Heart exhaled another mouthful of steam before concentrating some energy into his fingers as they externally glowed orange.

BEAM!!!

ZOOM!

EXPLOSION!!!

SMOKE!

He shoved his index and middle towards DIO's mangled body as a bright orange beam, with a white corkscrew pattern on it rushed from his fingertips as it crashed onto the ground.

STEAMY SNORT!!!

Energy expanded into a dome before exploding into a smoky after effect as the god snarled, steam blowing from his nose as a gesture to his disdain.

BFFT!!!

BOOM!

SHOCKWAVE!!!

SPIN!

His emote was met with a fist that clocked him in the back of the head as his body spun vertically as he was launched.

"HAHAHAHA!"

DIO regenerated within the clouds and stopped time to dodge the attack before repeating the process to flank the CPU, as he laughed, finally getting the jump on the deity.

BFFT!!!

STOP!-

CROSS PUNCH!

The vampire stopped the flow of time once more as the god stopped himself before resuming it right before he was going to strike Brave Heart, sending a vigorous cross punch to his liver.

"Tch!"

FLINCH!-

FEAR UPPERCUT!

The adventurer CPU flinched as the bloodsucker took advantage of his slight as he went with an uppercut to the jaw, his hand writhing in fear energy before using The World's arm overlapping his own to send a sky ripping straight into his nose, with another fear and blow.

"Argh!-"

COMBINED PUNCH!!!

THUNDEROUS SHOCKWAVE!

The divine fighter felt himself recoil as some pain followed the successful attack.

ZOOM!!!

THUNDERCLAP!

BOOM!!!

Brave Heart rocketed back, before clapping behind him.

PROPELL!!!

SPIN!!!

Which sent him flying back before going with the momentum as he used his Attraction to lock onto DIO's position as the vampire tried to evade with a time stop.

"As if!"

BFFT!

The menace to society shouted before seemingly getting out of dodge as he teleported behind the attack.

LOCK-ON!

GRAVITATE!

But to his dismay, the god's body immediately beelined for him, turning around near instantly.

BFFT!

BFFT!

BFFT!

BFFT BLITZ!!!

He glared before abundantly using his time stop, trying to disorient and misdirect the CPU.

But for each time he moved, Brave Heart consciously added more and more gravitational locks onto the vampire, ironically making his accuracy better the more he stopped time.

BFFT!

VOOM!!!

DIO was growing tired as he slipped up, taking a break for a second too long as the god closed the gap before his vision slowed to witness his incoming pain.

"Hah... Urk!" He looked up at the last moment.

He saw Brave Heart with both hands clasped, his hands rippling with attractive gravitational forces layered onto each other as his body rippled slightly as his person was locked onto him, his eyes contracted as his grit teeth let off steam in the cracks.

STAND GUARD!!!

FEAR BARRIER!-

SHATTER!!!

DISMEMBER!

SLEDGEHAMMER!!!

ZOOM!-

SMASH!!!

Time sped up for him as The World was summoned to help bear the brunt of the blow with a block as the bloodsucker himself stuck his hands out as a square barrier of gold fear energy protected them both.

BOOM!!!

The fuming CPU gave no fucks before slamming his fists into the barrier, shattering it before dismembering and mutilating the stand's hands upon contact and finally smashing the vampire's face apart as bone and blood as well as some reflex tears flew as he smashed into the ground.

ZOOM!!!

CRASH!!!

DEBRIS!

DIO's body was shot through the ground as he went underground, the god following him with a silent vengeance.

The rocks and dust flew, obscuring the view of Kars and the others as he grumbled.

"Grr..!"

WOOSH!

The Ultimate Life Form snarled before blasting another wind magic through his extended palm.

Only to find that the two were gone.

"They're gone...!" Domio stated the obvious, looking at the hole they created.

GRAVITY BARRAGE!!!

"ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!!!!!!!!"

STEAM!!!

As they stared at the hole, within its confines, Brave Heart unloaded punch after punch into the vampire's face, plexus, heart, neck, temple, and chin as he yelled, steam occasionally flowing from his mouth as he did.

DIG!!!

PLUMMET!

GRAVITY BARRAGE!!!

STEAM!

DIO was overwhelmed by the baronic bombardment of gravity enhanced blows as his ribs, skull, jaw, and gut were subjected to oppression via these hands, Brave Heart relentlessly pressuring him as they continued to descend.

BURN!!!

'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-'

BEATDOWN!

They soon pierced the mantle as the gravity shield rendered the god immune to the increasingly high temperatures as DIO now felt his back being scorched from the back as he received a brutal barrage from the front.

ASCEND!!!

DIG!!!

The two reached the middlemost section of the planet's core before Brave Heart made an acute turn towards the surface.

ATTRACT!

UPPERCUT!!!

"Jūryoku Shinryuken!"

VACUUM!!!

SPIN!!!

DIO's body was a burned and beaten pile of flesh as he was struck up as the CPU used a Shoryuken to not only propel the vampire towards the surface but also attract him to the fist as the god rapidly twirled as he created a vacuum to keep the evil creature to him, maximizing the damage output.

CRASH!!!

SUBMERGE!!!

DIO desperately endured the torture he was subjected to as they ascended back into the crust before crashing into the ocean floor as the sand and rock exploded from the pressure, the two still ascending.

Water drenched the vampire's body, cooling it before he was put under the water pressure of being in the trenches of the sea.

GIGANTIC SPLASH!!!

The attack carried the bloodsucker and the god through the trenches, through the abyss, and the three zones before blasting out of the water's surface.

WAVES!!!

SWAY!!!

The area that they emerged from the water was a few hundred meters off the eastern coast of Leanbox, like battleships and other military naval ships that were called in by Taleia, as well as some cargo and oil rigs were washed away by the monstrous waves that erupted thanks to their appearance.

REPULSE!

WHOOSH!-

REGENERATE!...

DIO was finally launched with a blast of repulsive gravity before he managed to gather enough breathing room and time to regenerate as he was breathing heavily as he flew, still suffering from what his body went through mentally.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Was a clear sign of said withdrawal symptoms.

CLENCH!-

HALT!

RESTRAIN!!!

Brave Heart stretched his hand to where DIO was flying before clenching it, causing him to stop and be restrained by the fundamental force he wielded.

The creature of the night desperately tried to escape, but was stuck.

"Fuck! I can't do anything! RELEASE ME AT ONCE YOU SHIRTLESS SMOOTH BRAIN!"

FEAR AURA!

The grey-haired, scratched-up vampire yelled as he flexed his fear energy, in a vain attempt to break free.

"No."

"AH-!"

ENERGETIC EXPLOSION!

Brave Heart declined before opening his other hand and extending it forward as he slightly bent the closed fist, before pulling back his open hand as he clenched it, mimicking a piston movement as he exploded from within as an invisible blast of KI ripped apart the discombobulated bloodsucker.

GRIP...!

The CPU began to breathe heavily after reducing the vampire to a bloody mist before he grabbed his chest.

'This technique is starting to take its toll... If I were completely human, I'd be suffering a massive heart attack by now...!'

CRAMP!

He was interrupted by a slight palpitation.

'FUCK ME ON A SWIZZLE STICK AND CALL ME CHIEF BEEF, OH MY-... Yeah, I gotta finish this quick.'

BURST!!!

STEAM!

The CPU decided as he regained his aura with a burst of KI and gravity, the white spiking coat of energy returning, a breath of steam escaping his mouth and nose.

REGENERATE!!!

DIO regenerated before panting heavily, the creature of the night also drained from recovering his biomass repeatedly.

"Hah... Hah... Hah..."

SMILE!

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

FEAR BURST!!!

FEAR AURA!!!

He panted.

His eyes locked with a dull glare from Brave Heart before his remaining patience snapped as he received a mocking snigger.

"WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! WHY ARE YOU STRONGER THAN ME!!! I WILL NOT ALLOW THIS TO PERSIST! I'VE GONE TRHOUGH TOO MUCH TO BE DEFEATED BY THE LIKES OF YOUUUUU!!!"

SHINE!!!

WINDS!!!

WAVES!!!

DIO screened as his aura expanded to illuminate gold the sea below him as well as the sky was brightened by the light as his pupils contracted from fury.

The waters became violent as they roughed up the ships to the point where they almost tipped over as the winds became on the level of a tropical depression.

STEAM!

The seas and winds died down as Brave Heart opened his mouth, steam escaping.

"Look at you. You carry yourself like some kind of higher being, someone on the level of a god, but yet you writhe and wallow in inferiority when faced with a real one."

The CPU poked at his current mental state.

"GO FUCK YOURSELF, YOU ABHORRENT NUISANCE!"

SHADOWS!

DIO roared, his intense hatred drawing his shadows as he seemed at the deity that floated and glared back at him. before beginning to laugh.

"I'M the nuisance! ME! Oh, so you're ignorant on top of indignant, you sophisticated shithead!"

STEAM!!!

The CPU took offense to the blunt insult as he began to power up, his own aura in the form of steam shooting out of his pores as he flexed.

BURST!!!

His steam was blown away by the sudden surge of KI, the white aura appearing as it came in full burst.

DARKNESS!!!

ABSORB!

The seas had dark lines and swirls extracted from its mass as it became concentrated onto DIO's form, pulling from the surface, all the way down to the trenches.

SPHERE OF HATRED!

The conglomeration of darkness became layered on the vampire's body, blocking him from Brave Heart's vision, a black sphere of pure hatred and malignant intent was created, releasing negative waves of energy, fear energy to be exact.

DARKEN!...

EXPAND!!!

SHATTER!!!

SHOCKWAVE!

The light around them dimmed temporarily as the sphere expanded before shattering, causing a shockwave that pushed the water around him so quickly that a giant air pocket was formed underneath him, as the low lying was instantly cleared.

"Damn!"

GUARD!!!

SPLASH!

SCREAMS OF TERROR!

Brave Heart guarded against the winds as he heard the splashes and winds of the sea and sky, the boats being blown out of the water from the energetic pressure.

STRETCH!!!

GRAVITY!

HALT!

His eyes darted as he stretched his hand, stopping the ships from crashing into the water as he used his heightened awareness and energy-sensing capability to stop the structures that indicated high amounts of life signatures.

His eyes looked back to shrink as he beheld a mortifying scene.

"Phew... Oh fuck-" The CPU cursed in the realization of what he had to fight.

In the place of DIO, stood a 200-meter tall shadow construct of fear-laced destruction.

Red piercing eyes stared down at him as a shadowy head of long flowing hair and the eyepiece of his stand's armor was fused to create an intimidating visage, as it glowed a dark gold and black.

Muscular arms bigger than any building in Eastern Leanbox, and legs longer than a small office building, the body of the shadow projection bolstered its strength from its demeanor as its fists were clenched and its teeth grit.

It wore the plating of The World, as well as the oxygen tanks on its back with the straps, as well the clocks on the back of its palms.

Its knees also showed the heart symbols of DIO's pants as its feet were meshed with the darkness below the being, acting as a supply for its maintenance of structure as shadows could be seen leading up to his body.

And DIO himself stood in the chest of the construct, his frame visible by a slight glow in the center where he occupied.

"What the hell is that?!" Brave Heart yelled.

"Your funeral."

REEL!!!

SWING!!!

WHOOSH!!!

DIO simply responded before he reeled back his arm, the giant shadow construct mimicking him.

A gust of wind followed the punch as it approached the god, at an incredibly quick pace of its size.

BOOM!!!

"Which!-"

ZOOM!

Brave Heart saw the attack coming and guarded accordingly, but upon contact, his shields were bypassed by the construct being pure overwhelming fear energy as he was sent flying.

CRASH!!!

DEBRIS!

SPLASH!!!

The CPU was sent flying as the ships dropped back into the ocean, his influence being removed as he smashed into the eastern cliff side of Leanbox as created a large hole upon his landing.

The ships slammed into the waters as the vampire then raised his arm before smashing the ships into oblivion, explosions taking place as he wreaked havoc on the naval forces.

"Oh look! The humans! Some of you managed to remain unbrainwashed. Unfortunately, in a moment you'll be unalive!"

RAISE!

SLAM!!!

EXPLOSION!

SPLASH!!!

DIO screamed before raising his fist.

EXPLOSIONS!

A colossal wave was made from the first as other ships were capsized, and some already capsized ships were wrought into destruction by the water pressure, also subsequently exploding from their intricate mechanical assets being utterly crushed.

"Fire back! We're under heavy resistance! We're dropping like flies out here!" A chief petty officer yelled as several laser cannons and missiles augmented fire magic and flew at hypersonic speeds to damage the emerged threat.

MISSILES!!!

LASERS!!!

TORPEDOES!!!

CHARGE...!

Torpedoes were released from underwater as both warships and submarines released their variants of missiles as a giant cannon on the back of the remaining destroyers began charging for a powerful laser, the humming becoming unison.

Their attacks were relentless but proved to be useless as the giant shadow just narrowed its eyes in annoyance.

"You can fire all you want, but ant with a piece of metal is still an ANT! Muda muda muda!"

GIANT JET!!!

The bloodsucker roared before firing a large SRSE beam from his giant, the lasers the diameter of lighthouses.

EXPLOSIONS!!!

The pressurized jet eyes left nothing in its path, the heat from DIO's manipulation boosting its power right below the threshold for it becoming plasma as it cleaved through a line of cruisers and destroyers with no remorse.

Brave Heart finally mustered the strength to be out of his hole, before witnessing the ships being massacred by the colossal dark entity.

"Urgh...! No!"

ATTRACT!!!

VOOM!!!

He yelled, his eyes honing in on the shadow and contracting as the CPU sped ahead as he put his arms in front of him to bum rush the large opponent as he used his Attraction to increase speed to a now impressive Mach 50,000.

"...! Not so fast!"

WIND UP!

SWING!

DIO enjoyed the wanton destruction he caused before hearing the approach of the god as his eyes darted as he reacted to his rush, before making his shadow construct wind back his arm before backhanding the god.

CLASH!!!

MASSIVE SHOCKWAVE!

SPLASH!!!

The shadow user roared before countering the dive rush, creating a massive shockwave that caused a blast of water that was able to reach the height of the island.

GLOW!

SHINE!!!

PIERCE!-

PIERCE!!!

Brave Heart made his body glow white with share energy, concentrating it throughout his entire body as his KI made his good brighter before he bore a hole through the shadow's hand, and bore a gigantic hole into the torso of the shadow giant.

GLARE!

DIO jolted with shock as he felt his abdomen fold in on itself before he was disemboweled, and impaled as he looked up, to he a white glowing figure, Brave Heart looking back down at him with glaring yellow eyes.

ZOOM!-

HALT!

DIM!...

The vampire felt the animosity the CPU gave off in waves, before he regenerated the hole as Brave Heart zoomed past, stopping himself as his glow faded.

GRAB!!!

DIO's shadow did not take kindly to being rendered empty inside and grabbed the slightly winded CPU out of the air.

"Ack!"

CLENCH!!!

The god yelped as he was caught off guard.

"Urk!" He hissed, the pain of being crushed reaching him due to the shadow's nature.

Brave Heart was yanked out of the air and held in front of the construct's face, which had a look of intolerance. DIO, however, had a look of anticipation as he began to speak once more.

"Got you! Now burn to ashes before you burn in hell. UREEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"

PLASMA BREATH!!!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

SCORCH!!!

The bloodsucker roared as his shadow opened its mouth, releasing a freakishly large amount of plasma that instantly engulfed the CPU in a beam of ionized destruction.

VAPORIZE!!!

EVAPORATE!!!

STEAM!!!

Brave Heart yelled in agony as his external shields were being nullified and he felt his skin burning at the temperature of the core of the sun, enduring with high difficulty with burns guaranteed to form.

His body writhed in pain as he desperately tried to escape the jumbo-sized superpowered microwave beam, as the remaining portion of the attack hit the waters and instantly vaporized some ships as the water they floated on evaporated.

"Where's your bravado? Any quips? Irrelevant dribble? Anything at all?! Or is your indulgence in your suffering too much to answer me? Well, it doesn't matter, since you will be reduced to a divine puddle of flesh in no time at all!"

PLASMA BREATH!

CRUSH!!!

"UAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

DIO ironically punned as he laughed, his shadow construct still firing the blast.

The deity soon felt his body being crushed under the unbearable pressure of the shadow that held him, while being drowned in plasma, yelling bloody murder as he did.

Brave Heart was practically defeated in the current state he was in, cornered by the forces of darkness and heat as he contemplated giving up, before shaking it away, choosing to be overcooked in acceptance of defeat as he endured rather than death meeting him with his will broken.

LASER CANNON FIRE!!!

His torture was about to end as he finally felt his last gravitational defenses being nullified when a large collection of lasers fired from the remaining destroyers.

SINGE!!!

DIO paid the insignificant attacks no mind, being so close to finally killing one of his targets until he suddenly lost an eye.

"ARGH!!!"

RELEASE!!!

He held his eye, as it was mirrored from his shadow construct having its eye being blasted through by the collection of light that had hit it, overcoming its darkness for a brief moment due to its unpreparedness being taken advantage of as it tortured the CPU in its grasp.

FALL!!!...

SLAM!-

A limp Brave Heart fell from the distance he was held, before luckily crashing into the deck of a destroyer ship as he unconsciously gravitate towards it, being the closest platform.

TWIRL!!!

STAND!-

STAGGER!

The impact sobered his punch drunkenness as he twirled from the recoil before twirling upright and staggering, his eyes becoming bright again.

BURST!!!

GLOW!!!

GRAVITY!!!

YEET!!!

He looked back to the writhing DIO, having been caught off guard by the very humans he disregarded, before the CPU charged a sphere of share energy and KI, enhancing with a gravitational singularity and threw it after adding its coordination to be an attractive gravitational pull that honed in on the shadow construct before it blew on the shadow's other eye just as the steam completely blocked his figure as it became misty.

"Cobe!" The adventurer god yelled before throwing the attack at the giant, blasting it right in its eye, which gained a heated swear as a result.

"YOU BLOODY RODENTS!"

MIST!!!

DIO screeched as he now covered both eyes, their positions becoming undetectable.

"Says the interdimensional, one-dimensional, terrorism advocating PEST!" Brave Heart yelled back as he winced, his body still crushing from his bones being evicted from structural functionality.

"FUCK YOU!" The vampire retorted, too angry to come up with an intelligent rebuttal.

A snigger formed on the CPU's face, before he was suddenly met with the barrel of multiple assault rifles.

"Stop! You have violated the law!" A loud, strong feminine voice yelled as he was quickly surrounded.

"Oh, come on." Brave Heart cursed as he raised his hands in respect, rather than compliance as he looked to thatperson who was giving orders.

A/N:

YOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

IT HAS BEEN DONE! I've done it! Written a really long-ass chapter in an inappropriate amount of time for the sake of speeding up the arc and ironically making it longer due to missing loose deadlines!

But, besides that, Happy late Halloween, and to all my readers participating in NNN, if you haven't lost yet, godspeed. If you have failed, mission failed, we'll get 'me next time.

Sorry for the really late update, but this chapter was really long, so it shouldn't be

But about the chapter, I've finally decided to flex the mental prowess of our once meme lord, now a seasoned big-brained warrior throughout a chapter as Brave Heart has our opponent on the ropes.

As well as positively spooked by his apparent lineage. It seems as if DIO knows more than he is letting on about the Joestars than it seems to the average bystander.

But DIO even under the pressure of his adversary's Under Pressure, has a trick up his sleeve, his infuriation manifesting a freak of nature made of fear and fury, the Kage Kaiju.

They now clash in the seas of Leanbox, on the bay of the Specific Ocean with even the navy not taking too kindly to the CPU's efforts to defeat, or at the very least distract the dark tyrant.

Kars and his acquaintances follow the high, with AL, Blinx, Domio, and Cave ready to jump in if it becomes necessary, despite their inferiority and clear disadvantage. They've yet to arrive at their skirmish, though.

Taleia and the Commanders close in on their position, to aid the group against the might of DIO, but will they be prepared for what they must face? And Vergo, alongside Gris, are STILL yet to appear? When will these hyped heroes finally appear?!

Many questions. No answers until the next chapter.

But thanks for reading the chapter, it means a lot to me. I'll see you guys in the next one, hopefully not as long of a gap as before.

Arrivederci.

Read and Review!
