Korn vs. Peppa:
The Hate You Give
"Once you've seen how broken someone is it's like seeing them naked—you can't look at them the same anymore." ~Angie Thomas
Thunderous rumblings echo across the sky as two cousins clash at each other with murderous rage. Super Sayian Rose Korn elbows Ultimate Ikari Peppa with the intent to break his ribs and cause him the most physical pain possible. When Korn realized he only hurt Peppa he threw a fast punch but Peppa instinctively blocked it with his forearm glaring at Korn with those evil yellow eyes.
Korn and Peppa start boxing in midair but it was clear from the start Korn could not land a punch on Peppa who seemed to predict and evade all his moves while landing brutal punches using the Yacchaina Fist to make each punch more powerful and accurate. A technique he stole from Roasie, his teammate from the Kamikaze Fireballs during the Tournament of Power.
Korn formed a Ki Barrier around him to help absorb the brutal and unrelenting punches of Peppa. Peppa was a savage even with the barrier Korn was losing ground being pushed back in the air as his Ki Barrier started to crack and break with each punch. The two saiyans slammed their fist at each other with Korn's Ki Barrier shattering to pieces. Korn had a freaked out look as Peppa stared at him with a cold murderous glare of Oozaru behind those awful yellow eyes.
Korn flashes back to the Grand Canyon on their homeworld of New SoHo that they took from the Tuffles after their planet of Saldala was destroyed by Heles who declared the Sayians of her universe to be an ugly and violent race. Korn remembers the brutal and violent fight between him and Peppa as they fought to see who would be the leader of their three man group.
Korn remembers standing on top of a high place wearing white boots, black jumpsuit, white gloves, and upper class saiyan armor similar to what Vegeta wore when he first arrived on Earth in Universe 7. Peppa being poor, and of a lower power level wore the armor of a low class saiyan warrior at the time. Which was similar to what Goku's brother Radditz wore.
When Korn and Peppa found out they were going to be paired up in the army they fought to see who would lead. Korn technically didn't have to entertain Peppa's challenge. Korn out ranked Peppa, had the higher power level and was the favored son of House Poole. Still, Korn wanted to gauge how powerful his potential rival for their family seat of power was.
Various members of their family stood in silent discipline watching the two cousins have a brutal clash knowing the future of House Poole would be decided by one of them. Some of the noteworthy saiyans in attendance were their Grandfather and leader of their family's house. Both Mothers watch their respectives sons clash for supremacy of their name, as well as Korn's sister and two brothers. Their Uncle with Saltz smiling evilly as her father whispers to her that she will get her chance to kill them and become leader of their house.
At this early point in their lives Korn was a prodigy among his family learning how to use his ki, his ki aura, and his ki blasts. With his high power level he dominated the fight and embarrassed Peppa amongst their kin. For Peppa he lived in the shadow of Korn, stronger then most of his kin yet looked down upon for never being able to win when it truly mattered. Their kin took bets most betted on Korn and some like Saltz bet on Peppa because she better then anyone knew Peppa's jealousy and anger only fueled him to be the best.
Korn found Peppa to be a joke, he didn't understand why his family thought he was a worthy rival to him at the time and Korn showed his ego by scolding and talking down to Peppa like he was less then him which Korn believed at the time.
Korn effortlessly pummeled his cousin across the canyon and brutalized him with Ki Blast, Peppa's anger and frustration only grew. In anger he brought forth a black and red aura of an evil saiyan raising his power level and started to close the gap against Korn.
This wasn't the only thing that shocked Korn as they brawled in the air. Peppa was learning in his fight against Korn even copied his Ki Blast to counter Korn's Ki Blast. Then Korn saw Peppa's real strength, his ability to adapt. Instead of being satisfied with the Ki Blast like Korn was, Peppa made Ki Orbs to fly through the air and not only block Korn's ki blast, but blew them up severely damaging Korn and overtaking him and returning the brutal beating he gave him yelling out in rage.
Korn was shocked and surprised to see peppa not only copying Saltz 'evil aura technique but then to copy and evolve his basic Ki Blast. Despite Peppa's growing edge Korn got his head back in the game and used his speed and power and took Peppa at different angles. When it became clear Peppa was going to lose at this rate Peppa fell back flying up to a high place and used the a high level Ki skill creating a False Moon to transform into Oozaru.
The saiyans shield their eyes and look away. Korn had his eyes closed and was looking away while spamming Ki Blast in the direction of False Moon. Korn was able to destroy it but not before Peppa had turned into a giant brown Oozaru. Korn was horrified as he was forced to fight an enraged Oozaru.
No one came to Korn's aid, this was another test by their family. If Korn could not defeat Peppa in his Oozaru form then Korn was unworthy to lay claim to the Seat of Power. Due to the increase in power and strength Korn got bodied by Oozaru.
There was very little Korn could do besides fly around and not get swatted by his massive fists. His Ki Blast had little effect, due to his bulk and saiyan armor. Then there was the massive mouth Blast of Oozaru that was destroying and leveling everything around them. Korn would try to go for the tail but that proved useless as he got swatted around by Oozaru's tail and couldn't keep up with how fast Oozaru would turn around.
Finally, a desperate and bloody Korn frustrated with whoever taught Peppa how to use ki to create a False Moon flew up and fired a Ki Blast in the eyes of Oozaru temporarily blinding him. This allowed Korn time to recreate the False Moon in his hands which he quickly used to bind and remix technique, forcing Oozaru back to his human form. Then while Peppa was regaining his awareness Korn used this opportunity to beat the peppa into the ground and nearly massacred him with rapid fire Ki Blast.
When the dust cleared a bloody and beaten Peppa lay on the ground. Korn could have killed him right then and there snuffing out Peppa's evil from Universe 2, but instead as Korn stared at his cousin on his back crawling away in defeat before giving up and waiting for the killing blow Korn instead lowered his hand. Korn looked over to his Mother then back at Peppa and understood why people feared him.
Peppa's ability to learn and adapt was truly impressive. Had this been any other saiyan Korn would have killed him for the threat he posed to him and his house but this was different. Peppa was of their house and the stronger each individual member of their family was the stronger their house would be. Korn saw killing Peppa as an utter waste. Now controlling Peppa and keeping him allied to him, now that was real power turning your enemies and rivals into one's allies.
Korn walked up to Peppa over shadowing him as Peppa used a stone wall to weakly get back to his feet before turning around giving a hateful glare to Korn. Korn smirked evilly. Korn whispered to Peppa letting him know he is only alive because he is going to allow it and if Peppa knew what was good for him to know how to remain useful to him. Peppa spit out blood and warned Korn that he will regret keeping him alive for on the day his foot loosens on Peppa's neck he will kill him.
Korn welcomed the challenge, for this fight would teach Korn another important lesson it wasn't just fighting that made a saiyan strong, but fighting strong opponents and nearly being defeated or nearly killed that allowed a saiyan to grow in power and skill as he saw with Peppa and how quickly he adapted and used various techniques from Saltz, an Elite Saiyan, and him to make up and try and close the difference in their power and in the fight humbled Korn and showed Korn if he wants to stay on top he must always seek greater power and control…
Korn shook the memory away, staring at Peppa seeing how much he had grown. Peppa truly was a beast with his potential unleashed. Peppa, if allowed to live, will keep climbing higher and higher to break free from Korn's shadow, to beat the strongest warriors in the multiverse and beyond to surpass and kill the gods and angels in his rage to be free.
Korn smirks, he didn't want to kill Peppa. He always wanted to keep Peppa at his side. Just as Korn was the driving motivation for Peppa to keep getting stronger so he can be free, Peppa was Korn's motivation to stay strong so he can continue to dominate his cousin and keep him at his side so he wouldn't have to kill such an exceptional member of their family. Both Korn and Peppa push back from each other not once breaking eye contact.
"Disappear!" Peppa yells out in a dark voice firing his signature Ki Blast.
Korn dodges spamming Ki Blasts in Peppa's direction. Peppa makes his Ki Blades destroy the incoming Ki Blast effortlessly. Korn just blinks and smiles, his heart filled with respect, admiration, but most of all love for his cousin. While Peppa's heart was filled with jealousy, anger, and hate for Korn.
Peppa only respected power. So Korn would force Peppa to respect him and fall back in line by defeating him with his power. Korn yelled powering up, putting his hands together forming the Black Rose Kamehameha. Peppa's eyes widened as he flew at Korn only for Korn to teleport at the last second to appear a foot behind Peppa. Peppa instinctively turned around with widened eyes as Korn unleashed a Warp Black Rose Kamehameha.
Korn saw Peppa take the attack at point blank range as the beam hit and cracked the barrier encasing the Prison worlds. Korn noted the crack but when the dust cleared Peppa was gone. Korn wasn't surprised.
"Tch, I fell for his After Image. Which means he read my move." Korn said in a frustrated tone.
Peppa appeared behind him but when Korn attacked the image of Peppa disappeared much to Korn's frustration as Peppa Warped in and kicked Korn through a pillar of rock. Peppa floated in the air looking down at Korn who looked up smiling enjoying the fight and seeing Peppa for the truly broken, selfish, and evil person he was, yet still loved him.
"Just Disappear!" Peppa said darkly.
Peppa fires a massive blast which Korn counters with another Black Rose Kamehameha. The two beams of energy clash pushing against one another warping the space around them and rocking the chains holding the planets together. Peppa warps to the ground, tripping Korn at his feet and kicking him away. Peppa then flew at Korn, closing the gap unleashing Yacchaina Fist.
"It's all your fault! You betrayed me! You abandoned me! You weren't there for me! I lost because you weren't there! You lost! Our Universe! Our Mothers! Saltz! Celeron! Ribrianne! Nishi! Garlick! They're all gone because we LOST! Whether alive or dead they don't exist anymore! Yet, Were still here and there gone! IT'S OUR FAULT!" Peppa said in a low, dark, and hateful voice. Korn just looks at Peppa in the eyes and sees all the rage and pain he was unleashing upon Korn putting the blame upon their shoulders.
"I know." Korn said, taking advantage of Peppa's temporarily distracted mindset and sucker punches him in the gut and blasts him away. Peppa rebounds off the ground to his feet looking at Korn with clenched fists.
"I'll destroy them! The Gods! The Angels! The Omni-King! I'll destroy all of the divine beings who toy with mortal kind like they have!" Peppa roared trying to power-up to Super Saiyan 4 but he couldn't hold the form and reverted back to Ultimate Ikari and charged Korn.
"I understand your feelings, Peppa. I understand the pain, the anger, and the loss you feel." Korn said powering-up in his Super Saiyan Rose form.
The two saiyans flew high up in the air forgoing defense and started landing earth shattering hits on each other that echoed across the prison worlds and rumbled the chains. Back in Fuu's lab Saltz watches not taking her eyes off the screen at the brutal fight between Korn and Peppa with Korn high in the sky wrapped in a massive black and purple aura of his Super Saiyan Rose form with Peppa flying up at him in rage only to be struck by a full powered Mouth Blast from Korn with the image of a golden Oozaru appearing behind him. The Massive beam enveloped Peppa, shooting into the ground at high speed causing a massive explosion in the ground and defeating Peppa in the process.
"He almost went Super Sayian 4, had he achieved that form again I might not have been able to beat him." Korn said in a tired voice powering back down to his base form floating to the ground to see Peppa in his base down on one knee in a sink hole looking up at Korn with a defiant look, with steam coming off his battered and bruised body. Korn and Peppa just stared at one another.
Saltz takes a deep breath and lets out a scornful yell her restraints are no longer able to restrain her power. Fuu turns around with a shocked expression as a black and red aura destroys his base in a massive explosion with the Evil Saiyan Saltz finally free from the restraint jacket, and the intense gravity the boots used to hold her in check. Saltz turns her head flying in a mad rage toward her cousins Korn and Peppa…
