Deep in the recesses of the cosmos, there exists a realm shrouded in darkness, where the stars burn with a cold, eerie light, and the very fabric of reality seems to twist and warp. It is here, amidst the shadows of a forgotten galaxy, that the tale of the King begins.
Born into a world ravaged by war and strife, the King's early years were marked by hardship and tragedy. His parents, humble farmers struggling to eke out a living in the harsh landscape of their homeworld, were mercilessly cut down before his very eyes, victims of a brutal raid by marauding warlords.
Left orphaned and alone, the young King was cast into the depths of despair, his innocence shattered by the cruel hand of fate. Taken captive by the raiders who had slaughtered his family, he was thrust into a life of servitude and suffering, condemned to toil away in the darkness of the warlord's fortress.
For years, the King endured the horrors of slavery, his spirit broken and his hope all but extinguished. He witnessed unspeakable atrocities, subjected to the whims of his cruel overlords and forced to witness the suffering of his fellow captives. But amidst the darkness, a flicker of something primal began to stir within him, a latent power waiting to be unleashed.
As the King entered his teenage years, a profound transformation overtook him. In a moment of intense anguish and despair, his latent abilities awakened, flooding through him like a tidal wave of dark energy. With a primal scream, he unleashed the full force of his newfound power, laying waste to his captors with a terrifying display of strength and ferocity.
From the ashes of his former life, the King emerged reborn, a creature of darkness and vengeance. He slaughtered his tormentors without mercy, his mind consumed by a burning desire for retribution. With each life he took, he felt the weight of his suffering lift ever so slightly, replaced by a cold, unyielding resolve to carve out his own destiny.
But the scars of his past never truly healed, haunting him like specters in the night. Beneath the veneer of his newfound power lay a wounded soul, a boy who had lost everything and gained nothing in return. As he gazed upon the shattered ruins of his homeland, a sense of bitter sorrow consumed him, a reminder of the price he had paid for his freedom.
Driven by an insatiable thirst for power and a relentless desire for vengeance, the King embarked on a quest to conquer the stars themselves, determined to forge a new empire from the ashes of his past. With each world he conquered, his legend grew, his name whispered in fear and reverence by those who dared to oppose him.

The King's power surged as he unleashed the darkness within him, a palpable aura of malevolence enveloping his form. Gohan, sensing the imminent threat, focused his energy and unleashed a powerful Kamehameha. The intense blast collided with the shroud of darkness surrounding the King, but to Gohan's astonishment, the darkness seemed to absorb the energy, dispersing it in all directions with red hues seething from within.
Before Gohan could react, the King surged forward with incredible speed, closing the distance between them in an instant. With a swift, powerful punch, he struck Gohan squarely in the abdomen, the force of the blow sending the young Saiyan hurtling through the air like a ragdoll. Gohan's body arched in agony as he crashed to the ground, the impact leaving him momentarily stunned.
As Gohan lay sprawled on the ground unconscious, gasping for breath, the King cast a menacing glare at the other Z warriors, his voice echoing with authority as he issued his ultimatum. His words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of his power and the threat of further violence.
"You all can either kneel before me and pledge your allegiance to your King or end up like that boy." The King's raspy voice echoed down to them.
"ME? KNEEL BEFORE YOU? I AM THE PRINCE OF ALL SAYAINS!!" Vegeta, ever defiant, refused to bow to the King's demands. With a fierce cry, he ignited his golden aura, the energy swirling around him like a tempest as he launched himself at the King with all the fury of a warrior prince. The ground trembled beneath Vegeta's feet as he rocketed towards his adversary, a small crater forming beneath him as he unleashed his full power.
The clash between Vegeta and the King was nothing short of explosive. Their blows reverberated across the battlefield, the sheer force of their clash sending shockwaves rippling through the air. Each punch and kick was delivered with deadly precision, the combatants locked in a fierce struggle for dominance.
Despite Vegeta's formidable strength, the King proved to be a formidable opponent. His dark aura surged with power as he met Vegeta blow for blow, his movements fluid and precise as he countered each of the Saiyan prince's attacks with ruthless efficiency.
But Vegeta, fueled by his pride and determination, refused to back down. With a primal roar, he unleashed a devastating barrage of energy blasts, each one crashing against the King's defenses with explosive force. The intensity of his assault was unmatched, the sheer ferocity of his attacks pushing the King to his limits.
As the battle raged on, the ground trembled beneath their feet, the very air crackling with the energy of their clash. Both warriors fought with all the strength and skill at their disposal, their movements a blur of motion as they sought to gain the upper hand.
Piccolo was just now getting up and looked to see Vegeta was now engaging with the Shroud of Darkness. The Namekian looked around to see Gohan unconscious. Krillin had flew over to the Son of Goku checking on him.
Out of the blue Goku appeared next to Krillin with two fingers on his forehead.
"GOKU!" He was excited to see his best friend of many years.
"Hey Krillin." Looking down to see his son in bad condition his eyes turned serious as he looked up to see the threat fighting with vegeta. "How's Gohan doing?" He's not too good Goku. But I an only brought a few of these." Krillin said as he held up a brown bag of senzu beans. "Take care of Gohan for me." Goku floated upwards to be on the same level as the threat and Vegeta.
Tightening his fists, he remembered when Gohan was born. He held the sayain baby in his arms as his tail moved on its own. A white aura now enveloped the Sayain warrior. Gohan was just a toddler when he introduced him to everyone for the first time. The once white aura was now a golden color identical of his hair and his once brown eyes were turquoise. He remembered being in the hyperbolic time chamber training with his son and genuinely getting to know his son in and out. And seeing him grow into a fine young man before his very eyes.
Now slightly hunched over Goku began to yell. "AHHHHHHHHHHHH" An energy that hadn't been felt before by the King made him kick vegeta to the ground and look over at Goku.
"So there are more capable fighters on this planet?" The King smirked behind the darkness.
Goku now standing there with electricity crackling around him and his long golden hair flowed in the wind. The other Z warriors hadn't seen this form before and was surprised to see this. Goku dashed at the adversary and began his relentless onslaught.
Goku's aura blazed with an intensity that seemed to pierce through the darkness shrouding the King. With each blow, he unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks, his movements fluid and precise. The King, caught off guard by Goku's sudden surge in power, struggled to keep up, his defenses faltering under the onslaught of the Saiyan warrior.
The air crackled with energy as Goku pressed his advantage, his fists hammering against the King's defenses with relentless force. Despite the overwhelming power of his opponent, the King refused to yield, his dark aura pulsating with malevolent energy as he fought to regain the upper hand.
But Goku, fueled by a fierce determination to protect his loved ones, refused to back down. With a primal roar, he unleashed a devastating barrage of energy blasts, each one crashing against the King's defenses with explosive force. The sheer intensity of the assault sent shockwaves rippling through the battlefield, shaking the very ground beneath their feet.
As the battle raged on, Goku's movements became more fluid and precise, his attacks honed to perfection by years of rigorous training and discipline. With each strike, he sought out weaknesses in the King's defenses, exploiting them with ruthless efficiency.
But the King, driven by a deep-seated desire for power and control, refused to be outmatched. With a roar of defiance, he unleashed a wave of dark energy, sending Goku reeling backwards with a force that threatened to shatter bone. But the Saiyan warrior refused to falter, his resolve unshakeable as he pressed forward with renewed determination.
With a sudden burst of speed, Goku closed the distance between them in the blink of an eye, his fists a blur as he unleashed a devastating barrage of blows. The King, caught off guard by Goku's sudden burst of speed, struggled to defend himself against the onslaught, his dark aura flickering as it strained to keep up with the Saiyan's relentless assault.
But just as Goku seemed poised to deliver the finishing blow, the King unleashed a powerful counterattack, his dark aura surging with renewed intensity as he unleashed a barrage of energy blasts that sent Goku crashing to the ground below. The Saiyan warrior, battered and bruised, struggled to rise to his feet as the King loomed over him, his eyes gleaming with triumph.
With a defiant roar, Goku summoned the last of his strength, his aura flaring with renewed intensity as he launched himself at the King with all the force he could muster. The two warriors clashed with a deafening roar, their blows echoing across the battlefield as they fought with all the fury and determination of two titans locked in mortal combat.
But just as victory seemed within his grasp, the King unleashed a devastating final attack, his dark aura surging with power as he unleashed a blast of energy that engulfed Goku in a blinding flash of light. With a cry of anguish, the Saiyan warrior was sent hurtling backwards, his body battered and broken as he crashed to the ground below.
Krillin had given Gohan a senzu bean he he immediately had woken up and was now looking at his father fight. Regretting not going all out from the start he wouldn't have ended up in this situation and his father wouldn't have had to take over. "Damn it."
