The Other World...
Everything was looking peaceful at King Kai's Planet.
Goku was off looking for his grandpa so the planet won't have any problems for the time being.
Then there was Piccolo… Meditating… Or… was just bored in his mind right now….
"Ugrrggghhhh…." The namekian complains while doing his meditation.
'What's the problem?' Another voice in his head said, 'Tired of the same meditation routine over and over again?'
"Don't start, Nail," Piccolo said, "I've been just staying on this planet doing NOTHING!"
'Your not a prisoner here, feel free to leave anytime, oh wait...you don't have a house' Nail quipped.
"Really, Nail…? Really?" Piccolo questioned him.
'I'm just saying, man. You're just complaining for no reason.' Nail retorts.
"For no reason huh? And you are one to never complain?"
'Hey, with Frieza finally dead after what he did to our people, I have nothing to say. Besides, at least our brethren are still alive… Also, you at the very least have peace and quiet. You don't have to deal with little kids, nagging women, Saiyans or robots anymore…'
"Yes but it has been nothing but quiet for a decade now or something...ugh maybe i miss the noise sometimes, it at least it would be better than the repetitive days here on other world"
'Maybe you just out to expand your horizons a little more'
"Maybe… Hey Nail, I was thinking of this for a while now"
'What were you thinking about?'
"You remember my technique right? Special Beam cannon?"
'Your still calling it that? What about its real name? Is a bit hard to pronounce but still it sounds cool'
"Ugh, the point is… You know how I use one hand, or mostly, my fingertips to do it, right?"
"Yeah…?"
"What if I used… Two Hands?"
'Uhm...wouldn't that be the kamehameha? Because you know, a blast of energy with both hands?'
"No! I'm using two hands to charge of course, it's different"
'Wasn't the point of using just one because you were charging up all the energy to your fingertips?'
"You're getting the wrong idea! Besides, the kamehameha doesn't drill people nor drill things!"
'Last time I checked, neither do beam cannons'
"That's what makes it special!"
While they were conversing with each other, the bald man himself was walking with a sexy thicc ass lady angel.
"Hmmm? Oh hey Piccolo! How are you doing buddy, talking to yourself again or just napping? Maybe a little of both?" Krillin asked with a smirk.
"God damn it…" Piccolo mutters quietly before looking in the other direction, "Hey Krillin, nice to see you… Again…"
"Yeah it has been a while, have been looking around the other king kai's turf to see if they had any interesting fighting techniques"
"Well, good for you, kid"
'That bald man looks familiar,' Nail said as he felt that he'd seen him before.
"Don't worry, it's just Krillin…" Piccolo tells his companion, "If you ignore him, he'll go away"
"Thanks Piccolo...though Kid? I mean if we are talking about age and how long we were alive before dying, you're technically a teenager by now but sound like a middle age adult man" Krillin chuckles "But anyway this is my new friend" Points at the angel lady.
"Hey!" The angel lady smiles, "You must be the former King Piccolo~"
Piccolo grumbles a bit when the angel mentions his merged past/late father.
"Ain't she adorable? We are gonna go on a date right now, who knew death would get me so lucky? I can train as much as I want, no need to worry about death anymore and I got a cute girl" He said as they nuzzled one another "Hope your enjoying your after life too Piccolo"
'I have no idea what he's talking about…' Piccolo spoke quietly.
'Krillin's got a girlfriend~' Nail jokes
"Gross… Ahem, y—yeah, the afterlife is doing wonders for me, Krillin"
The namekian then looks at the lady angel, "What's your name anyway?"
"My name is Charlie, pleasure to meet you"
"Nice to meet you, Charlie. Now, if you two may excuse me, I gotta get back to my meditation training"
"Aw, have some fun in the afterlife for a while!" Charlie said, trying to excite Piccolo, which wasn't working, "Your loss… So, handsome, wanna hear my voice again?~"
"I'm hearing it right now ain't I? But that's just how Piccolo is, but the grumpy guy grows on you" Krillin said with a smile.
"Meh, I met worse people," She then hugged her man and started to whistle, making Krillin's heart melt.
'So, do you always ignore people who are trying to talk to you?' Nail asked.
"Oh, no, not always… Most of the time, I would invite them to live inside my head" Piccolo said in a sarcastic tone.
'Oh, I'm sorry, it's just that there's so much space here I wouldn't think that yo—?!' He was about to say when he started screaming in pain, 'OH MY GOD, WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?!'
Piccolo started groaning as his face scrunched up as if he was in agonizing pain. A pain in which he never felt before, it reached straight into his brain like a curse, not even being killed by the androids felt this screeching.
"Holy Kami, it's like someone's torturing a dog!"
Charlie kept on whistling for her man who was currently nuzzling close to her.
'Make… It… Stop…!'
"KRILLIN, I WILL SHOVE YOU UP HER ASS!"
"WHOA!" Krillin said "Piccolo...that is way to kinky man, we have been dating for two weeks" He simply said.
"Yish what crawled up his ass though?" Charlie asked.
"I didn't mea—-Ugh…" Piccolo groaned out of disbelief and disgust as he really didn't mean that, yet they seem to dumb to understand.
'At least she stopped… For an angel who's supposed to have a wonderful singing voice was terrible' Nail remarks.
"No kidding…"
"Well since your in a bad mood like always, we will get out of your green ass and be on our way, lets go Charlie lets get some ice cream"
"Sure thing, big man~" Charlie said as she picked up Krillin with ease and flew to the sky, "I know you can fly, but it's adorable seeing you like this~"
"Man who said being dead was going to be such a blast" Krillin said, happy.
She then kissed him on the forehead and continued flying away with him, leaving the namekian alone.
"Finally some peace and quiet!"
'You know what… after having to hear her voice… I'm gonna let you have that…'
Meanwhile...
A certain blue skinned deity was stretching up to start his day, and what better way then to watch his universe i am right?
"Ahhh… Almost not exciting when Goku isn't around, but at least there won't be any noise disturbing me, heh" King Kai replies with a chuckle before walking up to his crystal ball.
Now what part of the universe should he take a look at? Maybe check out Earth to see how its doing after the androids were defeated? He would check from time to time to see how the planet was after the best warriors died, it was sad really but he was happy when they were done for, but he had other places to keep watch.
"Hmmm… I guess I could check to see if Earth is okay… Gohan, Trunks and the others are taking care of it" He mused before the crystal ball turned on by itself… and showed him something bad…
"HUH?" He looked a bit shook "No way...seriously? W-What is up with that planet? Its attracting all sorts of bad vibes"
He didn't know what it was or why it was here… But he could only hope that the last defenders of Earth could handle it.
Back on Earth…
Our heroes were at Capsule Corp, minding their business and spending time with each other.
"And that's why I thought having a sword could help me in battles because I could combine my ki through the blade making it really sharp," Trunks said.
Chesami smiled after hearing her boyfriend's story, "That's pretty cool, Trunks. Never knew that was possible"
"I mean we can fly and shoot beams of energy out of our hands so making a sword sharper with ki is not that impressive right? Hehe" He said, rubbing the back of his head.
She chuckles and planted a kiss on his cheek, "Maybe not to some degree but to me, it is"
The half saiyan blushes a little bit after his girlfriend kisses his cheek.
That was when Gohan walked in with Chi-Chi and Maron while gently holding his son Bulhan in his arms.
"Hey, everyone!" Gohan greeted, his cheerful tone filling the room as he walked in. Bulhan, cradled securely in his arms, giggled at the sight of so many familiar faces. Chi-Chi followed closely behind, her usual stern expression softened slightly in the warmth of Capsule Corp's lively atmosphere.
"Wow, Trunks, Chesami," Chi-Chi said, glancing at the couple. "It's nice to see young people being responsible... and not blowing things up for a change."
Maron trailed behind, waving enthusiastically. "Hi, guys! Did I miss anything cool?"
"Not much, Maron," Trunks replied, grinning. "Just me trying to explain to Chesami why swords are still awesome, even when you can shoot lasers from your hands."
Gohan laughed as he handed Bulhan over to Chi-Chi for a moment. "You're still on that, huh? I think it's cool too."
Trunks smiles a bit after hearing his stepfather and mentor say that, "T—Thanks, Gohan, heh"
"And thanks, Miss Chi-Chi," Chesami said before giving her and her mother Maron a hug, "Glad to see you too, Mom. How are things with you two girls?"
"Oh it's been calm and peaceful these past few weekends so i can't complain" Maron said.
"Yeah… too bad that we're getting old by the minute…" Chi-Chis mused sadly.
"You still look great, Miss Chi-Chi," Chesami assured her with a smile, "So do you, Mom"
Maron smiles as she pats her daughter on the head a few times.
"That's sweet of you to say Chesami but I gotta admit I have become quite old, my skin is not as smooth either. But that's just life for ya" Chichi said.
Maron giggles a bit, "Oh, don't worry, Chi-Chi, I'm sure you'll find someone who will love you. I mean, look at Bulma. She's at the age of 50 and your son thinks she's attractive~"
Chichi rolls her eyes "If you think the fact my son is dating one of my friends is cheering me up, it's not working" She said, but then again at this point who would even attempt a relationship with her?
Gohan blushed a bit when Maron and his mother were talking about his relationship with Bulma.
"Uh, can we not talk about my personal life too much?" he said, chuckling nervously. "Besides, Bulma's... um... experienced in ways that help me grow as a person." His words only seemed to make his embarrassment worse.
Chi-Chi sighed, waving dismissively. "Whatever makes you happy, Gohan. I've stopped trying to understand half the things that happen around here."
Chesami smiled as she leaned into Trunks, giving him a playful nudge. "Well, at least you don't have to worry about me running off with an older guy."
"Y—Yeah, heh." He chuckles, a bit embarrassed and happy about what his girlfriend said.
Trunks, Chesami and Maron giggled before Bulma got their attention.
"Hey, guys! Come here real quick!" She said in an urgent manner.
The group immediately turned their attention to Bulma, whose urgency cut through the lighthearted atmosphere like a blade. Trunks was the first to react, standing up straight. "What is it, Mom?"
Bulma waved them over from the doorway, her expression serious. "No time for chit-chat. Get to the lab—now. We've got a problem."
Chesami exchanged a quick glance with Trunks, her smile fading as she grabbed his hand. "Let's go," she said firmly.
Maron followed closely behind, curiosity and concern flickering in her eyes. "What's happening, Bulma?"
"I'll explain in a second," Bulma replied, her tone clipped.
Everyone followed the genius and met with Videl and Erasa at the lab since they were already there.
"Hey Guys…" Videl spoke in seriousness, "You're not gonna believe what Bulma just found…"
"It's huge! Gigantic! Humongous!" Erasa exclaimed, widening her arms.
Bulhan felt scared for a few seconds before Chi-Chi gently held him tight with assurance.
The group hurried into the main lab, where screens displayed a dizzying array of data and visuals. One screen showed something steadily approaching Earth, which seemed to be like a meteor but larger than one may think.
"Is that…?!" Chesami was about to say before Bulma finished her sentence.
"Yep, that's a meteor coming straight to Earth" She confirmed to them.
"Why would a big rock head for Earth like that?" Maron asked while scratching her head, not understanding the science and the technology.
Bulma adjusted her glasses and brought up additional data on the screen, her fingers moving swiftly over the controls. "That's the thing, Maron, it's not just a big rock. This meteor is emitting an energy signature, something completely unrecognizable. It's almost like... it's alive, or powered by something alive."
"Whatever it is… It shouldn't be there…" Gohan said, "I'm not going to let some meteor disturb the peace we've finally reached after our long fight against the androids."
"We're coming with you, Gohan!" Trunks said with determination.
"Yeah! We won't hold you back! We promise!" Chesami said, pumping herself up.
"Sorry, guys, but you two better stay here, in case something happens" Gohan tells them before walking towards Bulma and gives her a quick kiss on the lips, "I promise I'll be back safely"
Gohan then hugs his mother Chi-Chi and gently kisses his son's forehead, making the baby Bulhan giggle. The metal-armed warrior then left the lab with a determined look on his face.
"Ugh...must he always do this? It's like he thinks he is so cool he gotta do everything alone" Chesami said, frustrated.
"That's my step-dad for ya, heh" Trunks chuckles a bit, still embarrassed to see his mentor kiss his mom like that.
Maron giggles and pats her daughter on the head, "Oh sweetie, don't worry. I'm sure he'll let you go on the next one" She then turns around and smirks as she sees Bulma blushing.
"Is that a blush I see?" Chichi was the one to poke at her "Looks like you're still young enough to act like a highschool girl huh?"
"D—Don't judge me, Chi-Chi!" Bulma pouted a bit, "Not my fault that your son is a hottie!"
"Mom!" Trunks exclaimed in embarrassment.
"Guess we just stay here then?" Videl said "Wish we could watch it"
"Same here, babe…" Erasa mutters a bit in response.
...
Outside in the Sky…
Gohan soared through the atmosphere, the wind rushing past him as his sharp eyes locked onto the massive object in the distance. The meteor's unnatural energy signature pulsed faintly, visible even from his altitude.
"Alright, big guy," He muttered to himself, his aura flaring around him in a brilliant white glow."Let's see what you're made of"
He then prepared one of his attacks by putting his hands together and charging a source of Ki energy, "Masenko…. **HHHAAAAAA!**"
He then blasted the yellow beam out from his hands and straight towards the meteor.
But this was no ordinary 'meteor' that was his first mistake to think it was, the second was to be holding back.
The Masenko didn't even dent the meteor, leaving Gohan in shock.
"What th—?! What the hell…?" The metal-armed warrior asked himself in disbelief, "That attack should've exploded the meteor…!"
What his attack did manage to do was bring someone else's attention to what he was trying to do just now.
"Well, well, well… looks like we got a bug to swat away…" Someone said inside the meteor, the tone sounding old and disturbing.
With the press of a button the so-called meteor started to shift, revealing its true colors as Gohan saw multiple high tech cannons and guns he had never seen before taking position, shedding its false appearance.
"Ah crapbaskets…" Gohan muttered in shock, disbelief and fear as he saw his mistake he made too late.
The high-tech guns and cannons started blasting and shooting away, leaving the metal-armed warrior little time to recover from shock.
"Whoooaa!" He started darting around the air, trying to dodge the sudden barrage.
He was able to dodge and reflect a few of them but he couldn't keep this up forever.
'God damn it! There's so many gu—?!' He was about to complain to himself when a huge laser beam hit and shocked him, **"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"**
Momentarily losing his consciousness thanks to that Gohan starts falling from the high altitude.
The wind then took course and blew him away somewhere while he was falling.
...
Everyone who was watching from the sidelines were horrified by what they just witnessed.
"GOHAN!" Both Bulma and Chi-Chi screamed in disbelief and fear, not wanting to lose their baby boy.
"Oh shit! Did that meteor just sprouted guns?" Videl said in surprise.
"That's crazy..." Erasa mentioned.
"Okay, I know I'm not good at science and whatnot, but even I know that big rocks can't do that… right?" Maron asked, still in confusion.
"There's no way a meteor can do that… Unless…" Chesami trails off while looking at her boyfriend who was already thinking the same thing.
Trunks then looked at his mother, "Mom, you don't think that the 'meteor' was actually a spaceship or something?"
"From the moment I saw it, I could tell it was not just a big space rock, but this was out of my predictions," Bulma said.
"Yeah and it has guns so of course it is a spaceship" Chesami said.
"But why would a spaceship be heading to Earth?" Maron asked.
"Someone must be looking for trouble, always happens to be the case" Chichi added her two cents.
"Then let's go!" Trunks said in determination before running out of the lab.
"Trunks, wait! Your Mom didn't even tell you to go!" Videl replied as she tried to stop him.
Erasa and Chesami looked at each other before looking at the adults.
"May we…?" The two were just about to ask at the same time.
Bulma just sighed "Better let them go or else they go eventually, trust me, you can't stop teens that much these days"
Maron shrugs while Chi-Chi groans out of annoyance.
"Fine, but I'm coming, just to keep you safe…" Chi-Chi tells them.
"Yes! Let's kick some ass!" Erasa said, pumping herself up.
"Now you're speaking my language!" Chesami chuckled before running out of the lab, along with Erasa.
"If things get too dangerous we should fall back, no shame in retreating" Videl said.
"My thoughts exactly," Chi-Chi said with a nod.
Outside of the City...
The townspeople, or most of them that had survived the android attack, saw a big spaceship coming down from the sky.
And like most human beings rather than running away they decided to look at it with curious eyes, wondering what it was.
"Woah…"
"Wow…"
"What's that?"
"Beats me"
There was lots of gossip and talk among them as they walked through the road and saw the spaceship landing next to the entrance to the city.
it was a really large and industrial yet tech like feeling to it, the type of ship someone with a lot of money or status would have.
Everybody was amazed to see something like that. That was when everyone backed out a bit when the door of the spaceship opened.
From it soldiers with armor they had never seen before started to come out of it.
The soldiers kept on coming until it was one huge group of them.
One of them walked up and pointed at the townspeople, "By the name of Lord Slug, your planet will be ours!"
One must be built different to just go to someone else's planet and say that it belongs to someone else just like that, usually humans would think this is just some show or movie set but after going through all the android stuff, one may think aliens are not that far fetched
"Um, yeah, sorry, but whoever this Lord Slug is, he can't have this place…" One of them said,
"Yeah, you people can't just show up out of nowhere and say this place is yours!" Another person replied.
"Oh look at the adorable little earthling, he thinks he has a choice in the matter" One soldier said "A few shots to the head on a few of you may change that line of thought"
"Wait, what?" That person replied in shock as he saw the soldiers aiming their guns at him, "Oh shit…"
"Time to say goodby—?!" He was about to say when a Ki Blast destroyed the gun, "Guh!"
"No one is shooting anyone today you fool" Trunks showed up "If you know what's good for you, take up this ship and go home"
"And who are you to give orders, little boy?" The soldier sneered before Chesami flew towards him and kicked him straight on the face, "Ack!"
"My boyfriend is seventeen, bastard!" She said before shooting Ki blasts at the other soldiers.
The normal citizens decide this is dangerous and ran away screaming while Trunks and Chesami stay put to fight off the invaders from their peaceful planet.
"Let's go!"
"Don't have to tell me twice!"
Videl and Erasa ran past the runaway crowd and joined in the fight.
"Damn that ship is even bigger than I thought, can you believe it?" She asked Videl.
"Yeah, no kidding…" Videl muttered in awe, "This shit just keeps getting crazier by the day"
"More are coming, keep up a sharp eye ladies" Trunks said, getting in position.
"You got it!" Videl replied, getting in position as well.
Chesami and Erasa then went into their positions, ready to fight the rest of the soldiers.
After that everyone started fighting, the soldiers kept pouring and the fighters went at it, with punches, kicks and more. Giving these invaders what's good for, but these were just the foot soldiers for now.
"Take this, you sons of bitches!" Erasa exclaimed as she punched one of them through his helmet, destroying the glass.
"AHHHHH!" The soldier screamed in pain as he held his face, "My face! All I see is blood and glass! Argh!"
"Damn Girl, that was savage. Do it again" Videl said with a smile.
"I know, we are like cops and all but sometimes I just want to go wild"
That was when everyone heard fighting chanting and screaming from one looking granny running towards them.
"Take this!" Chi-Chi yelled as she jumped into the air and kicked the soldier in the face and then the next one with an uppercut.
"Eh? Gohan's mom?" Trunks said in surprise, not expecting her "What are you doing here?"
"Normally, I don't support fighting or violence…" Chi-Chi says before her face turns red, "But after what they did to my son… I'll make an exception for these jerks!"
She then grabbed both soldiers by their heads and slammed them together.
"AHHHHHH! ARRRGGGGHHHH!" The two men screamed as they held their bloodied faces together with their hands.
"Hey it's fair game I am right? Glad to have you Mrs. chichi, all ass kicking skills are allowed" Erasa said with a thumbs up.
Chi-Chi smiled before fighting the rest of the soldiers
…
Inside of the ship, there were other minions that were doing operations in the ship while the soldiers tried to take the planet by force.
"What's taking the takeover so long?!" The big minion with the long hair asked the small soldier.
"It appears we are having some resistance towards it, some earthlings" A small one with a sily face said so.
"Hmhp! They should know better than to try and fight us, fighting lord slug forces is useless" A big one with wings spoke.
"They must be putting up a good fight," One of the minions mused, "Because a few of our soldiers are actually bleeding"
Back Outside of the Ship…
The battlefield roared with the sounds of energy blasts, shouts, and the clang of armor as the Earth's defenders fought valiantly against Lord Slug's forces. Trunks parried a blade-like energy weapon with his sword, retaliating with a clean slash that sent the soldier crashing to the ground.
"More of them keep coming," Videl grunted as she delivered a roundhouse kick to a soldier, sending him flying into a nearby pile of debris. "How many are on that damn ship?"
"Too many," Trunks replied, landing beside her. "But if we hold them off long enough, we might have a shot at stopping this invasion for good."
Meanwhile, Chi-Chi displayed surprising ferocity, breaking through a group of soldiers with nothing but her raw strength and a spatula she had grabbed from her kitchen. She jabbed one soldier in the chest with it before smacking another across the helmet.
"Mrs. Chi-Chi is kinda terrifying…" Erasa remarked as she blasted another soldier into a wall.
"Yeah," Videl agreed, dodging a beam of energy. "Remind me to never get on her bad side."
"Kamehame—HA!" Chesami shouted out as she shot the blue energy beam towards the soldiers from her hands.
She then did a quick stretch before buffing up her body into 25% of its power.
"If you guys want to take over our world then you better bring in the big guns! Cause we aint going down that easy"
The soldiers kept on coming, trying to break the heroes down to their knees, but everything they did wasn't working.
Chi-Chi then landed onto the ground and did a peace sign, "See! Just because I'm a woman, I—ACK?!" She was about to say when one soldier knocked her out with a punch in the gut.
"Be quiet woman! Your in the way"
"You jerk!" Erasa was running at him, but that got her distracted as multiple soldiers approached and pinned her down to the ground, "Hey, hey! Watch the hands! This ass belongs to Videl and her only!"
"We need to help her! They are piling on her" Videl said.
"That guy is different from the rest," Chesami said, paying attention.
Trunks was just about to go Super Saiyan when one of the soldiers shot the sword right out of his hands and then punched him straight in the face.
"Argh! What the hell? That actually hurt" He said, surprised this one took him by surprise.
"Hehe…"
The rest of the soldiers then surrounded the heroes, putting the four of them into a small circle.
"Hey what gives why are we suddenly losing?" Chesami asked.
"I don't even know!" Videl agreed as she raised her fists, still ready to fight.
"Alright, now let's turn these kids into j— what th— is that a pig?"
"Hey, let me go, you idiot!" Oolong said as he tried to get himself out of Maron's grip.
"I command you… Let go of my friends and leave this planet, or I will curse you with my voodoo powers~" Maron said behind Oolong, trying to save her daughter and the others by trying to be scary, which wasn't working.
"You look like a twit!"
Maron then drops Oolong hard to the ground, "You're talking to the pig, right?"
"I know what I said" It said with a smirk and arms crossed "Twit"
"Oh, I'm an at least a 9, you fucking dick!"
Chesami blushed in embarrassment as her mother cussed out the soldier, "Don't know if I should be proud or scared of my mom"
"Both sounds about right," Erasa said, already in cuffs.
The soldiers put the rest of the fighters in cuffs as the old lord himself walked out of the ship and towards the others.
"So… these are the people that tried to stop my army? Heh… Pathetic…"
He was a tall figure with a wrinkly sickly green skin shade to his body, showing that he was quite old, his clothes didn't really look like that of a ruler, it was kinda simple in yellow and a purple helmet.
"And who the hell are you?!" Videl demanded before getting bonked in the head by the soldier.
"You don't have the right to say anything, filthy earthling!" He said as he aimed his gun at her but was stopped by the green figure himself.
"Feisty little earthlings huh? Trying to play the hero even when no one asked for it, how silly"
Videl growled a bit before lowering her head down, not wanting to risk getting her friends hurt or killed.
"We won't give up!" Trunks yelled "I fight for my planet, my master would do the same"
"Master?" The green creature was confused before realizing who Trunks meant and laughed, "Oh, you mean the one with that ridiculous orange outfit?! That fool is long dead by now!"
Everyone gasped after hearing this except for Trunks who was gritting his teeth "I won't believe your lies! That man, no...that warrior would never die that easily"
"Then where is that warrior you speak so highly of? He should be here to save you all, correct?"
Trunks groaned at him, not willing to let this guy get under his skin
That was when Bulma, after walking for hours, got in front of the others to protect them and glared at the monster.
"Alright, you… why are you on Earth and what do you want?"
He looked straight at her "What do I want? Hmmm...I want so many things, but there is one in specific"
"And what's that?" She asked while glaring at him in the eye"
"The Dragon Balls…"
"W—What?! The Dragon Balls?!"
It has been so long ever since they heard about the dragon balls, and they came here looking for them? Should anyone say they are just rocks now since kami died?
"I searched high and low for the Dragon Balls…" Lord Slug explains his motives, "I even tried to find my own home planet…! However, I recently found out that two Namekians were on Earth, meaning that the Dragon Balls must be here! So, tell you what little lady… Tell me where they are and then I might consider sparing the lives of your fellow earthlings~"
"T-The Dragon balls are hidden" Chesami said trying to lie "And if you kill us you never find them, they are hidden in a secret place"
"Hmmm…" The green overlord took a glance at her, almost considering her words, "You may be onto something… Meaning I must find the one who knows where the Dragon Balls are!"
He looked at each and every one of them, trying to figure out which earthlings would be smart enough to know about the Dragon Balls.
The blue-haired scientist glared at the monster, hatred flaming in her eyes due to the monster taking away her Gohan.
"You" He pointed at the older blue haired woman "You look like the strategist of the group, I have special plans for you" Slug said with a smile lacking some teeth.
"You stay the hell away from me, you green asshole!" She shouted at him, "If you think I'm gonna help find the Dragon Balls, you're wrong! I may know where they know but I'll never help the disgusting bastard who killed my Gohan! Besides, they've been gone ever since Piccolo and Kami's deaths!"
"WHAT?!" Slug looked angry and said, "What do you mean they are gone?!"
"Well, you green prick, years before you even got here, the androids showed up out of nowhere and killed everyone we knew, including Piccolo! With him gone, Kami dies too and the dragon balls become useless!"
"Mrs Briefs!" Chesami said "I was trying to keep things less destructive before you open your mouth...great now thats out of the window"
"Oh…. Oh…. Oh…" Bulma muttered, realizing her mistake.
The rest of the z-warriors either sighed out of annoyance or facepalmed themselves.
However, Slug, not believing what he was hearing, extended his arm, telepathically bringing the scientist to him.
"Hey, hey, hey! Why didn't I bring a weapon to defend myself?!" She screamed as the green monster grabbed her forehead.
"HEY! Let go of my mother!" Trunks said before screaming into a super saiyan.
"Uh uh uh! One false step and I snap her neck boy" He threatened.
Trunks growled at the demon before lowering his power reverting back into his base form.
After a while, Bulma gets dizzy once Lord Slug uses his power to search through her mind. He then lets her go and walks back towards his ship.
"Mom!" Trunks panicked as he went down and gently picked up Bulma from the ground.
"Take over the Earth within the hour…"
"Wait! You want us to take over the planet in an hour?!" One small minion with wings asked, "But it's hot as hell!"
"Oh fine you big baby! I make the ship block out the sun then with some smoke"
"Yes sir!"
"Also get rid of those annoyances, I got things to deal with right about now"
"Yes, Lord Slug" The light blue skinned one said with a smirk.
Once inside his own ship Slug turns on the ship to fly away from that location for the time being leaving his minions to clean up the mess by themselves.
"Well, at least things can't get any worse," Erasa says, giving her friends a hopeful smile before she and the others are wrapped up together by the blue minion's stretched arms, "Me and my big mouth…" She said sadly.
"Have a safe trip… AND A GREAT FALL!" He screamed at the end before swinging and throwing the remaining Z-Warriors at the sky.
"Looks like your friends are not that reliable after all boy" The winged one said looking at trunks while cracking his knuckles.
The half Saiyan swordsman growled at the henchman, readying his sword before taking a glance at his mother. He knew that he couldn't let her get in harm's way. Not to mention that they could use her to their advantage…
"This isn't over…" He vowed before picking up his mother and getting ready to retreat.
Before he ran away he shooted a few ki blasts with one hand to the ground to make some dust and flew away, promising to come back.
Lord Slug's minions, despite the disappointment look on their faces as they failed to get the boy, smirked as they knew that they have the high ground now…
Meanwhile...
Far away from that area of combat, the man of the hour was in fact NOT dead, but he was unconscious, his eyes slowly opening up but the vision blurry.
"Uuugh..."
A shadowy figure loomed over him, watching and observing.
"You okay there, kid? That was quite the skydive you had back there…" The shadowy figure joked a bit before giving him a comforting smile.
"Auuugh my head...w-who?" Gohan asked, trying to make heads and tails of who it was.
After opening his eyes a few times and his consciousness began rising back to normal, he was shocked to see who it was in front of him.
"It… It can't be…"
"Long time no see, kid. Heh"
A black haired chubby man with a beard and a katana showed up, it was no one else but the one and only YAJIROBI!
"Yajirobi?! You're alive!" Gohan exclaimed in joy as he got up and hugged him tight!
"Whoa there don't squeeze me too hard, hehehe yeah I am, have been a while but was mostly hiding, sorry, I just wanted to survive"
"It's okay… It's not your fault. I'm just glad to see you alive and well. But how did you survive? Besides understandably hiding, of course"
"Well… I remember that some blonde chick with blue clothes showed up out of nowhere, broke my sword in half and struck me down dead! If it weren't for Korin giving me the last Senzu Bean… I would've stayed dead like our friends…" Yajirobi replied as he looked down in remembrance as well as remorse for his mistake.
Gohan shook his head before looking around "Well you have my thanks Yajirobi, man putting my guard down like that was such a newbie move, embarrassing"
"If it makes you feel better, you're not the only one who made embarrassing newbie moves like that."
Yajirobi then offers him a roasted drumstick "I got no senzu beans anymore but you saiyans do enjoy eating so maybe this will help"
Gohan chuckled as he stood up and gently took the roasted drumstick, "Better than nothing! Thanks Yajirobi!" He then proceeded to take a bite out of the drumstick.
"So, I heard you killed the androids. That's pretty cool but more trouble always shows up huh?"
"Yep… The androids are no more, but they aren't the only issue now,… I just fought another Saiyan a few months ago… And I might've let him go after that… Heh"
Yajirobi sighs "You're just like your father, kid, but hey you have been out for some time, maybe is better to get back up and check on them?"
"Yeah, you're right. Thanks Yajirobi" Gohan said before finishing the roasted dumpstick and getting ready to fly, "Wanna ride? I can carry you to the others"
"Dude I nearly died last time I tried to do anything, you go ahead and do that yourself man, I'll be here cheering you on" Yajirobi said as his fighting days were past him.
Gohan chuckled a bit, glad that Yajirobi hasn't changed a bit, "Alright, dude! See ya later… It was good to see you again"
The warrior then took it to the sky, intending to head back to his friends and family.
Hopefully they were ok even with him gone so far, they have been training hard after all.
'Please be ok...'
Back with the Others at Capsule Corp
"WE'RE NOT GOING BACK THERE!"
"But Mrs Chi-Chi, we-" Chesami was about to say when she got cut off.
"THE ANSWER IS NO!"
The four Z-Warriors were trying to convince the elder mother to let them get back in the fight… which wasn't going well.
"Yeesh, Chi-Chi, we both know that Trunks, Videl, Erasa and Chesami are our best shot at stopping Lord Slug and his forces," Bulma reminds her, "We have to let them go."
"And let them die before they even get there?! Not a chance! I already lost my Goku and my Gohan! I'm not losing anymore people I care about!"
"Mrs Chi-Chi, I'm sure that Gohan is still alive! There's no way my master would fall that easily!" Trunks replies in determination.
"Yeah! Besides we have Trunks as a super saiyan, he just didn't have the chance to use it because they played dirty, but trust me, we went through far worse than some old coot from space to take over our world" Chesami said.
"Have faith chichi, we are gonna get through this" Maron said.
"B—But… But…" Chi-Chi tried to say more before Bulma gently put her hand onto her shoulder.
"ChiChi, believe me, I don't want our children, regardless of their age or powers, to go to fight some monster who would hurt or even kill them… But, I know that they have what it takes to stop that bastard. And I still believe that Gohan is alive… He should be…"
"Yeah besides the fact that we either fight and win or die, or hide until we die later...do we really want to hide again, after all these years of feeling so useless?" Videl said with a face that said she was tired of this.
The elder lady could see through everyone's reasons and looked down before hugging all of them.
She then lets go and gives them a serious look, "Okay… Get ready, go out, find Gohan and send that green grimacing monster straight to hell!"
"You got it mam" Erasa said with a thumbs up "I'm sure he is fine, wherever he is"
"Alright, guys," Videl says before turning to the others, "Are you ready to do this?"
"YEAH!" Everyone said in unison, wanting to protect their planet.
"Then let's go kick some ass!"
The four warriors then ran towards the door, carefully opening it and then took off to the skies.
As the group soared through the sky, their determination burned brighter than ever. Videl led the charge, her sharp eyes scanning the horizon for any sign of Gohan or trouble. Trunks flew close behind, already mapping out strategies in his head for their inevitable confrontation with Lord Slug.
...
Speaking of Lord Slug… The monster was still in his ship, watching his scientific team working on an experiment.
"Hmmm… The serum is almost done, Lord Slug…" The head doctor said with glee.
Lord Slug sat upon his towering throne, his aged, decrepit form bathed in the eerie green glow of his spaceship's interior. His fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest, his piercing eyes locked on the scientists bustling below.
"Almost isn't good enough, Doctor," he growled, his voice a gravelly echo that filled the chamber. "I don't tolerate delays, especially not when my patience is as thin as your neck."
The head doctor, a wiry alien with elongated limbs and a trembling gait, gulped audibly but forced a smile. "Y-Yes, Lord Slug! We're in the final stages of testing"
"It better. I didn't come this far just to be challenged by some meddling Earthlings."
The doctor adjusted his thick goggles nervously, motioning to his team. One of them, a short, insect-like alien, scurried forward with a vial of glowing green liquid.
"H—Here you go, L—Lord Slug. The key to your victory!" He said, his voice cracking as he presented him the vial.
"W-We were planning to test it first," the doctor stammered. "Just to ensur-"
Slug's glare silenced him. "I am the test."
The doctor hesitated for a fraction of a second before nodding and handing over the vial. Slug uncorked it with a single motion and downed the serum in one gulp. A tense silence filled the room as the lab crew watched their master, their breaths held.
"Hmmm… I don't feel any different…" He spoke, unimpressed by the lack of results from the vial he just received.
"It—It should be working, honest!" The doctor quickly said, wanting to live.
"Doctor… You've disappointed me for the last ti— HUH?!"
Then, Slug's entire body began to glow with an ominous green light. His veins pulsed visibly beneath his skin, and his muscles bulged grotesquely as raw power coursed through him. The ship trembled under the weight of his transformation.
Slug let out a guttural roar, his voice reverberating like thunder. The glow subsided, and he stood taller, his body radiating an unnatural energy. His wrinkles had diminished, and his aura was darker and more oppressive than ever.
"Wow… Woah… This… Feels… INCREDIBLE!"
"Phew… Thank goodness…" The doctor sighed, happy that the serum worked and that he wasn't going to die today.
Slug turned his gaze to the doctor, his eyes glowing faintly. "Yes. You've done well. But this is just the beginning."
He clenched his fist, and the air crackled with energy. "Earth will kneel before me, and its so-called warriors will learn the price of defiance. Prepare the army. We move at dawn."
The doctor nodded furiously, scurrying back to his station as Slug's sinister laughter echoed through the ship. The skies of Earth would soon darken under his might.
Meanwhile…
"Wolverines!" Erasa shouted as she shot several Ki Blasts down below at the soldiers.
"Is that your new catch phrase now or something?" Videl said as she spin kicked another one.
"Hey, you have your skills… I have mine~"
Chesami then buffed her body into 25% of its power before ramming at the soldiers.
"You guys never learn do you? Just save your ammo!"
Trunks was punching and kicking soldiers left and right before slashing a few of them with his sword.
"These soldiers are like ants, there are so many of them but we don't care about them whatsoever" Chesami said.
"Damn right, babe!" Trunks comments before shooting a Burning Attack towards the soldiers.
Meanwhile, Erasa was having a good time mocking the evil minions from down below.
"Y'all can't get me up here, bitches!" She exclaimed as she firmly slapped her ass just to spite them and unknowingly making Videl jealous.
"Erasa focus!" Videl said before kicking some rocks at them like a shrapnel attack.
"Sorry, babe!" Erasa winks at her before turning back towards the soldiers who glared at her, "Come and get me, morons!"
"Shut the hell up, girl! We have blasters!"
"Ha! One of them does nothing!"
"What about a hundred?!"
The remaining soldiers then reloaded their weapons and aimed at the blonde girl.
"She then gulps in fear and nervousness, "… Wolverines?"
As the soldiers unleashed a volley of blaster fire, Erasa's confident facade cracked for a split second. Her eyes widened as the sky filled with streaks of energy bolts aimed directly at her. "Uh, guys? A little help would be great!" she shouted, darting and weaving in mid-air to avoid the onslaught.
Videl launched herself upward, intercepting several blasts with precise kicks, deflecting them back toward the soldiers. "You can't just taunt them and expect me to save you every time, Erasa!" she scolded, though there was a protective edge to her voice.
"I knew you'd have my back!" Erasa grinned, spinning mid-air to fire a barrage of Ki Blasts that took out a few soldiers.
"Focus, both of you!" Trunks barked from below, slicing through a group of soldiers with a sweeping motion of his sword. "We've got bigger problems than these grunts. Slug's ship is almost overhead!"
Chesami, now charged up to 50% buff mode, slammed into the ground with a thunderous impact, sending soldiers flying like ragdolls. She looked up at the massive shadow of Lord Slug's ship looming closer. "Trunks is right. These guys are just stalling us. The real fight is coming."
"We just have to keep holding them off until Gohan gets here…" Trunks said, 'Please, Gohan… don't be dead…'
"We need to fight too, we can't just depend on Gohan, if that green skinned asshole was here I bet you could take him on" Chesami said to Trunks.
The seventeen year old swordsman smiled at his girlfriend before gaining more confidence in him and defeated the last wave of the soldiers, "Thanks, Chesami… I needed that"
"Those are some big words from an arrogant fool"
A pair of stretchy arms came to grab her by the shoulders and lifted her up.
"Hey, hey! WOAH!" Chesami yelped before getting lifted up into the air.
"Maybe you should keep your line of thought more GROUNDED!" He said throwing her at the other side of a mountain.
Once Trunks saw what that blue skinned bastard did to his girlfriend, there was that rage within him… the same rage that he felt when he saw his mentor's "dead" body after the end of the androids…
"You know what? FUCK! THIS!"
Not wanting to hold back anymore as if he was supposed to or something, Trunks just powered up to his super saiyan state and dashed towards the horned blue skinned minion before going for a deadly punch.
"What the fu—ACK!? URG…. Ack…" The minion struggled to speak after being punched through his stomach by the boy, "Y—You… Blech…" He spat out some blood while trying to speak.
"You should never have come to earth" Trunks said before removing his arm from his torso, then shrouding his blade with his ki, sharpening it up and going for a quick series of slashes at him.
He then obliterated his opponent from existence by blasting him with a one-hand Ki Blast beam attack.
"Holy shit! He just turned him into fried sliced meat!" Erasa said in shock.
Videl was shocked as well as she didn't believe that Trunks would do something like this, "Remind me to never ask him to go Super Saiyan during a sparring match again"
...
Chesami though was getting off the rubble where she had been launched and groaned "Ugh damn it, why do I keep being caught off guard like this?"
She then heard a voice behind her, "To be fair, at least you're trying your best, heh"
"Yeah but maybe I should just pay more at-" She then quickly looked around to that source of voice to see the one and only Gohan, now back and looking ok "Gohan! Your alive"
"Hey Chesami," Gohan smiled at her before giving her a hug, "Woah, Roshi really taught you well… That buff form of yours really took a hit"
"Heh...yeah if it weren't for extra padding of muscles it would have hurt way more, but hey i'm glad you're ok. We thought the worst, but we knew you were fine"
"Well, I have to thank Yajirobi for that one… That roasted drumstick was really good, haha!"
"Huh? Y-Yajirboi? I think my dad told me about him..." Chesami mused a bit in shock, "He's alive?!"
"Oh yeah, he's an old time friend of Dad when he was a kid, apparently he doesn't fight anymore but he was able to survive by the skin of his teeth and has been in hiding all this time" Gohan explained.
"Wow... I would be impressed if he wasn't a coward..."
"Hey, Yajirobi may seem like that, but he truly is a brave one by heart. He even once cut off Vegeta's tail right off during the Saiyan invasion."
"Dang really? That took some balls" Chesami said now standing "But we cant chit chat here Gohan, we are taking a stand"
"Right!" Gohan said, nodding in agreement, "Let's do this!"
The two warriors then took off to the skies, heading where their friends were fighting off Lord Slug's top henchmen.
Back at the fight...
The big fat one with wings was trying to lay a punch on Trunks who was still in his Super Saiyan state.
"Get out of here you chump!" The winged henchmen said as he started punching as much as he could.
"If this is the best you got, then you're really gonna lose against me!" Trunks said as he landed a kick at the minion's face.
Then there was a weird gremblin looking alien who sprouted smaller versions of him that were quick.
"Take this earthling!"
"What th-ACK?!" Erasa was getting jumped by the little monsters that got onto her face and grabbed her arms, "Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew!"
"Erasa!" Videl was flying towards her friend but was attacked by the weird gremblin, "Urgh!" Although she fell to the floor, she tried to stand right back up to continue the fight.
"That's right my little darlings, suck these women DRY!" He cackled.
"G-Get off... G-Get..." She tried to protest but her voice was getting muffled and she was feeling weak by the minute.
"Too bad so sad weakling, you're not getting anywhere, your energy is now mine, even if it's not much"
The little creeps then got off of her and headed back to their master.
"Erasa!" Videl exclaimed as she ran up to her girlfriend, "Hey, hey! Stay with me!"
Trunks continued fighting the big guy, very close to defeating him.
"Grrr… I'm gonna show ya!" The big goon threatened the half-saiyan as he flew right towards him.
Trunks then moved out of the way and sliced the wings right off of him with his sword.
"NYAGHHH!" It screamed in pain.
"I got no mercy for goons trying to conquer my planet, I bet your boss feels the same, he would rather fight and die than surrender" Trunks spat.
"YOU…. you… ARRRGGHHHH!" It screamed in rage as he tried to grab Trunks…
Only for the half-saiyan swordsman to jump above him, grabbed his sword and sliced his opponent in half once he landed behind the fool.
"This may be hard to believe" He then sheathed his sword "But I dont like killing"
The big oaf then fell down with his body peeling off in half. Trunks looks down at the body in shame and remorse - Remorse for having to kill the evil minion despite being justified in doing so… And shame that these evil minions showed up to the Earth to kill and destroy, with them having to die at his hand.
Back with the fight between Videl and the creeps, the woman hatefully glares at the ones who hurt her girlfriend Erasa.
"Y-You'll pay for this...y-you freaking...assholes"
"Haha! And what are you going to do about it, little girl?"
Video glares at the monsters before preparing a familiar pose…
"Kaaaaa….Meeeeeee…."
"You think I'm just gonna stand still and let you charge up an attack? Im no fool!" The green goblin stopped attacking Erasa and instead focused on Videl this time.
"Haaaaaa…. Meeeee….."
The energy beam was charging up by the second, with the green goblin gaining on her.
Erasa then slowly got up… and decided to do the same thing her girlfriend was doing, "Kamehame…."
But she could not charge it for too long so she shot it too quickly, but it was not meant to kill or harm him but distract him long enough.
"Owwww!" The green goblin grunted in pain before turning around and started walking towards her again, "You little—"
"HHHHAAAAAA!"
Videl shot it out right towards the goblin.
"Huh… ?! WHAT TH—?!"
With her remaining energy and determination, Videl shot her first kamehameha ever, she didn't know if it would be enough to take him down but she would try as hard as possible.
The green goblin and his little versions of himself braced themselves… only for the mini goblins to be vaporized out of the earth and for the main to try to block most of the kamehameha and not die.
"Tch! You little bitch, I'm not gonna be taken out by the likes of you!"
"Doesn't mean I can't try! You're going down, you evil creep!"
"And she is not alone!" Erasa felt her body so tired, but she had the adrenaline of a death match that kept her up "Hah!" She kicked his back.
"Ack!" The green goblin almost tripped to the floor before eyeing the kamehameha coming straight up to him, "OH MY GO—URRRGGGHHHHH!?"
Erasa jumped out of the way just in time before the blast pushed forward.
The green goblin continued screaming in disbelief, dismay and in rage before becoming nothing more but ashes as the kamehameha vaporized him from the battle.
"Damn..." Erasa sighed tired "That was fucking amazing"
"T—Thanks…" Videl sighed tired as well, "I didn't knew we had it in us… I love you babe…"
"Oh yeah babe you turn me on so much throwing energy beams like that. I love you too"
"The Cavalry has arrived!" Chesami shouted as she and Gohan flew towards where the three were before landing.
"Gohan!" Videl exclaimed in joy.
"You're alive!" Erasa smiled in happiness.
"Looks like I'm gonna hear that a lot now huh?" Gohan said with a sheepish smile.
Chesami giggles before she sees Trunks flying towards them, "Trunks!"
"Chesami! Gohan! You two are alive!" The swordsman quickly paces up the pace and gives the both of them a hug after flying down to them.
"It's gonna take way more to take me down then this, that's for sure. How about you guys fill me in?"
The four trainees then proceeded to tell their mentor about Lord Slug wanting to take over the world as well as use the dragon balls, although they pointed out that Bulma ruined their trick by telling the monster of what happened to the wishing orbs. They then told him about the top minions they had to face off.
"That's a problem, if he is stronger than the others then it is better if me and Trunks go to see him instead, you guys are too tired to be a part of it" Gohan said.
"But Gohan! We trained for this!" Chesami exclaimed, wanting to help.
"Chesami… leave this to us… please" Trunks smiles at her while gently holding her hands, "After all, you said that I could take on this Lord Slug on my own with or without Super Saiyan"
"I did say that"
The two then gently kissed each other on the lips.
"Worry not, you guys are becoming stronger by the day, next time i teach you more cool stuff, i promise" Gohan said with a thumbs up.
"Okay, Gohan, just be careful" Videl says with a smile while doing the salute, "Come on, Erasa, we're heading back to Capsule Corp!"
"Don't have to tell me twice!" She spoke out before taking a head start towards the sky.
Chesami and Videl then took off to the skies as well, catching up to their friend.
"Be careful, Gohan and Trunks! We'll tell the others that you're okay!"
"Will do, I bet this guy is not gonna be tougher than the androids after all" Trunks said confidently, after all there were two super saiyans.
After the girls flew away, Gohan smiled at his student while giving him a firm look.
"Even so, don't get too overconfident, Trunks. You remember the last time I was, right?" Gohan asked while flexing his bionic arm, while not really complaining about it, of course, but more like showing an example of what overconfidence can do to someone.
"Yes but...you have super saiyan two so it's hard not to feel confident, but I understand what you mean"
"Yeah, I get what you mean, too, man."
The two smiled at each other before eyeing the ship that was finally at their sight, preparing to land in the ground.
The two Saiyans touched down near Lord Slug's massive ship, its shadow stretching across the wasteland like a dark omen. The air around them was heavy, the ground vibrating faintly with the ship's mechanical hum. The area was eerily silent, save for the wind that whipped through the barren landscape.
"You ready, Trunks?"
"Ready, Gohan!"
The two get into their fighting stance as the door of the ship opens, revealing their next, and hopefully, last opponent…
"Welcome," a deep, gravelly voice echoed from within. Lord Slug's imposing figure emerged from the shadows, his towering form illuminated by the faint glow of the ship's inner lights. His face twisted into a sinister grin. "I was wondering when you'd show up. You've made quite a mess of my plans."
Slug's energy flared, a pulse of power that shook the ground beneath them. His presence was suffocating, his ki radiating malice and strength.
"So, this is Lord Slug, huh?" He asked his student/step-son, eyeing the green monster in hatred.
"Yeah…But I don't remember him being like that" Trunks spoke, pointing out that the green menace didn't look that young when he got on Earth.
"You two are sure strong, you defeated my men? I could use people like you on my crew" He said with a toothy grin.
"Yeah, we'll pass on that," Gohan replied with defiance.
"We're not interested!" Trunks spoke out of anger.
"Bah, I knew you say that, damn fools" Slug grabbed his helmet and tossed away showing off his green skin on the air and revealing antennae "You wanna die that badly?"
"Even if we're going to die, we're gonna die fighting! Right, Gohan?! G—Gohan?"
The lone warrior had widen eyes upon eyeing his opponent… it was like looking at a mirror… or someone… familiar…
"A—A Namekian? You're a Namekian?!"
Slug had a wide smile on his face "So you know my race? Interesting, yes I am...a super namekian"
"Super Namekian?!" Gohan was shocked to hear that. He thought the only Namekian he knew that would have reached that level was Piccolo before his unfortunate death.
"Gohan, what's wrong?" Trunks asked.
"T-The Namekians were supposed to be a peaceful race…" Gohan answered, not believing that this Namekian was pure evil.
"I wanted to gather the dragon balls to become younger and more powerful, but turns around coming to this mud ball was a waste of time, though even if i am not at my peak young years, I still have what it takes to take you on" He said, bringing something from his back that seemed to look like a fruit.
"What's that you're holding?!" Trunks demanded.
Gohan, however, widened his eyes as he looked at what the green menace was holding, "T—That's the fruit from the Tree of Might! Where did you get your hands on that?!"
"Heh, so you know what this is huh? I wonder from who though, but yes this is one of the fruits I managed to get from some idiot who didn't pay attention when he was gathering some, these are not as strong as the real deal but thanks to my serum and this fruit, your about to see something truly good" Slug said with a smirk.
"We'll just see about that!" The young swordsman said before charging up his ki and transformed into a Super Saiyan.
"I second that!" The metal-armed warrior agreed before transforming into a Super Saiyan as well.
Gohan's steely gaze never left Slug. "You're dealing with two warriors who've faced the worst the universe has to offer. We're not going to let you get away with your schemes."
Slug chuckled darkly, his energy spiking. He quickly ate the fruit in two bites, its power coursing through him instantly. His body convulsed and grew, his muscles expanding as his ki surged. His skin darkened slightly, and his eyes burned with renewed intensity.
"I'd like to see you try," Slug growled, his voice deeper and more menacing. "This power…it's intoxicating. Let me show you why they call me a Super Namekian!"
The two Saiyans charged at the green menace, ready to fight back with their own fury and power.
Slug smirked, his dark eyes narrowing. With a sudden burst of speed, he lashed out, his power making the very air feel heavy as he went for blows
Trunks and Gohan dodged the first wave of attacks, but Slug's strikes were relentless. His body moved with fluid precision, his enhanced form making him nearly impossible to track even though he was so bulky, the two Super Saiyans quickly found themselves on the defensive as Slug's blows pummeled the ground around them.
"This guy is tough! We'll have to keep up the pressure," Gohan said, breathing heavily.
Trunks nodded, his ki flaring as he shot forward with a barrage of energy blasts aimed at Slug. "Take this!" His blasts collided with Slug's chest, but the Super Namekian only grunted, his body absorbing the impact with little effort.
"Is that all you've got?" Slug taunted, laughing as he wiped away the residual energy. "You'll have to do better than that."
Gohan's eyes narrowed. "We can do better." He surged forward, combining his speed with his Super Saiyan power to land a powerful punch to Slug's face. Slug staggered back slightly, but his eyes burned with fury.
"I'll crush both of you!" Slug shouted, his voice now a guttural roar.
"Burning… ATTACK!" Trunks launched his attack at the monster, with Gohan doing the same.
"Masenko… HHHHHAAAAA!"
"RAHHHHH!"
With a furious yell he unleashed a devastating wave of destruction from his body. The shockwave spread out, crumbling the surrounding terrain, like a forcefield.
The two half-saiyans almost lost their balance but kept their heads up.
"You two will regret ever crossing me!" The green menace shouted he started creating energy from his hands.
"DIE!"
"Gohan Dodge!" Trunks screamed.
The green menace started shooting a barrage of Ki blasts at the two saiyans who effortlessly dodged every single one.
"I underestimated his power, he suddenly became as strong as the androids now, that fruit is like a drug, becoming a big problem"
"Maybe you could use your Super Saiyan t—ACK?!" Trunks was about to say before he was cut off when the green menace gave him a heavy sucker punch right in the face, sending him crashing into some empty buildings.
"HAHAHAHA" Slug said, his muscles bulging, the serum and fruit chemicals powering up "I'm the strongest in the universe!"
"TRUNKS!" Gohan screamed before charging at Slug in rage, "I'll rip you apar- UGH, BLECH, ACK!"
The warrior was getting punched by every turn, even getting slammed onto the floor by his opponent, while throwing him around like a ragdoll.
"What was that? I can't hear you! Too busy kicking you to the curb!" He said before kicking him like a soccer ball.
The lone warrior then crashed onto the ground, slowly getting up while struggling to maintain his Super Saiyan state.
"Now this is pathetic… You were able to defeat my top men, but you can't even land a hit on me!" Lord Slug said as he walked up to him and grabbed him by the neck, "Once I'm done with you, I'll kill everyone you know and love—Starting with that boy with the sword and the old lady with blue hair—And then the world will be mine for the taking!"
"Don't..." Gohan's eyes start to sharpen up as his aura is about to explode "DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY WIFE YOU PIECE OF SHIT!"
With unrelenting rage, Gohan ki exploded outward, pushing Slug away.
"ARGH!" The green menace was crushed onto the ground by the ki explosion before getting up, "You really done it now, you— HUH?!"
He continued to stare in awe as felt the increased strength and power of his adversary.
After so long he was now in the same state as he had unlocked all those years ago, forced to use it once again. The power of super saiyan two "All this power, all this tech, wasted on just being selfish and loathsome, the universe doesn't need your existence Slug"
"How… Dare… YOU?!" The monster screamed before powering himself up, "I won't be defeated by a child throwing a tantrum!"
He was about to strike when Gohan kicked him straight up in the gut.
"AAARRRRGGGHHHHH!"
"Pipe down, your whining is buzzing in my ears, I see what a real namekian can do, and you? Your just that...a slug, how convenient for a name"
"You… You… I'll make sure to keep that in mind… ONCE I BURY YOU SIX FEET UNDER!"
The green menace then started growing up somehow, much to the saiyan's shock, disbelief and anger.
"What the hell?!"
"HAHAHAHA!"
One of the many abilities a namekian like Piccolo used to have was that he could turn giant, and apparently this one had it too, not that Gohan knew so it was more shocking.
"Tch. You just became a bigger target for me"
"Ha! I get it, your overconfidence is making you so scared that you're acting tough. Too bad, you little s—GUH!?"
Gohan once again kicked him straight in the gut, sending the giant towards the buildings, destroying a few in the process.
"You know what they say the bigger they are, the harder they fall" He said, while electricity surged around his body.
The green menace struggled to get up, getting more pissed than ever. This little man thinks that he can defeat him… HIM! THE GREAT LORD SLUG!
"I'll kill you!" He roared as he got up and tried to grab Gohan.
While the two were fighting, Trunks finally got up and saw the battle once he flew into the air.
"Woah… I know Gohan can beat this guy, but I didn't think that monster would become huge!"
The green menace continued to try and grab Gohan but the metal-arm was too quick for him.
The swordsman thought about helping his mentor before he looked around and saw Slug's ship.
"Hmmm...maybe" Trunks said, making up a plan.
"Stand still you bug!" Slug said, stretching his arms trying to grab him like that and crush him.
The swordsman saiyan quickly flies to the ship while his mentor distracts the monster.
"Come on, is this really the best you can do?" Gohan taunted before dodging the stretching left arm.
"Silence!" Slug said before he shot laser beams from his eyes but Gohan dodged that too.
"I fought namekians too, and let me say besides that giant thing you got going on, you're not surprising me"
"GGGGGRRRRRR!"
...
Back with Trunks, he was inside of the ship, looking for anything useful to use against Lord Slug.
"Lets see, what does he have in this place that is useful?"
He saw nothing but boxes, guns, weapons and scientists trembling in fear as they didn't want to be killed by anyone right now.
'Ugh this is pointless! Besides the fact this ship is really well maintained, there is nothing here to help me, if only he had some weakness' Trunks thought just in case.
He continued looking through the boxes until he saw a paper - containing information and ingredients of the youth serum.
"Hmm? What's this?" He said taking a moment to read it.
After reading the paper in a few seconds, he was amazed and disappointed at the same time.
No one in this world invented a serum that keeps you young so it was a rather useful and interesting item, but it could not help his mentor. Though he would not mind taking that away from these guys.
"I guess Mom and her friends can use this… and maybe improve it, just in case" He quickly put it in his letter and kept on searching for an alternative way to help his mentor.
He went through some more boxes until he found a box of fruit… but not just any fruit…
"No way are these...just like the one he showed us?" He said while looking at it, not believing it.
Yep… they were fruits from the Tree of Might… He was still surprised by how Slug was able to attain them from the Goku-look-alike saiyan.
"How the hell does he have so many? I thought he only had one? They can't all be real right?"
The young swordsman picked one of them up by hand and looked at it carefully, "With the power in this thing, I can help Gohan…"
He was just about to take a bite out of it when he stopped himself, remembering what happened to the Goku-look-alike saiyan.
"On second thought… I won't…"
Nothing bad happened to slug so far and maybe these were different from the ones that one saiyan took, but he didn't want to risk anything right now, not to mention it felt like cheating to get power like this.
"There's gotta be something that I can do!" He grumbled as he grabbed his head before hearing something…
'Hey! Can you hear me?!' Someone said telepathically.
"Nani?! W-Who is there?" Trunks asked as he didnt notice anyone talking to him in the ship.
'I'm talking to you in your head… Kinda…! Anyways, listen, I'm Piccolo! I'm sure Gohan told you all about me"
"Mister Piccolo? His first master?" Trunks asked in awe.
'Yep! That's me!' Piccolo said with a smirk before continuing, 'Now, I can see that Gohan is fighting that disgrace of the Namekians, but he's slowly losing at the minute'
"Yeah, and I really want to help somehow without getting in the way" Trunks explained, already feeling helpless.
It was impossible to imagine Gohan losing,he was so freakishly strong but maybe Piccolo was right, but how would he help?
"Do you know that guy? Is there anything that can be done to bring him down faster?"
'I didn't really know nor met that guy before, but King Kai just told me about him a few minutes ago'
"King Kai?"
'I'll explain that later! Listen, I need you, and follow me on this one, to whistle'
"W-Whistle? How is that gonna help?" Trunks didn't understand.
'Look, us Namekians have very excellent hearing. Unfortunately, it's both a gift and a curse' Piccolo explains to the swordsman, "If you start whistling, Lord Slug's ears will be ringing out of pain! I know that by experience…"
"Wait really? The weakness of a guy like that is simple whistling? Man that's weird and kinda funny" Trunks said with a small chuckle "I bet Gohan did that too when he didn't understand much huh?"
'Yeah, I once told him to shut up when he was whistling while training him when I was alive an— WAIT! I could've just told Gohan to do it again instead of talking to you, not that it's nice to meet you. I'm just saying!'
"No problem Piccolo, I will make sure to go and do that, and say you said hi!" Trunks said before running back.
'See ya, kid! Good luck!' Piccolo said his last words.
'Huh… Nice kid…' Nail remarked.
'Shut up, Nail…'
Meanwhile back to the battle...
"GET OVER HERE!" Lord Slug screamed in rage as he stretched his right arm and grabbed Gohan.
"Whoa!" Gohan said as he was finally grabbed "Well then took you long enough, what? Five minutes to grab one saiyan?"
"You little pipsqueak!" The green menace shouted before squeezing and crushing the saiyan.
"HEY!" Shouted Trunks "Leave him alone you walking cabbage!"
Lord Slug turned around and saw the saiyan swordsman who just came out of his ship, "HA! And what are you going to do if I don't, little boy?!"
Trunks cleared his throat before giving an innocent smile "Let me whistle you a song..."
"Ha, you're really ar—Wait what?"
The boy then starts to whistle, crossing his arms and keeping on his innocent face.
"Hmmm?" Gohan didn't understand that 'Why did he start whistling out of nowhere?"
That was when the green menace was screaming in pain, "ARRRGGGHHHHH!"
He lost his grip on Gohan, now falling on his knees as if someone stabbed him with the worst case of pain ever made.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH! MY EARS! MY AMAZING EARS! ARRRGGGHHHH!"
"Hey Gohan, it turns out Namekian weaknesses are whistling," Trunks said for a moment.
"Wait, seriously?" Gohan asked with a strange expression, "Why would it—Ooohhhh… That's why Piccolo yelled at me while we were training a long time ago!"
"Listen up, space pirate! You have two options. Leave this planet and never come back or we kill you here alongside your pride" Trunks said.
"AHHHHHHH—N—NEVER! AARRRRGGGHHHHHH!" The green menace shouted before trying to grab them again, only for the two half-saiyans to effortlessly dodge and uppercut him, "ACK!"
Lord Slug then crashed onto his own ship after falling into the floor.
"Then you leave me no choice," Gohan said before he put two fingers on his forehead and started charging.
Trunks saw what his mentor was doing and was confused at first. However, he moved out of the way just in case.
Lord Slug quickly stood up, still on the floor and started getting up, "If I'm going to die, I'M TAKING YOU WI— HUH?! What are you doing?!"
"SPECIAL BEAM CANNON!" Gohan said after charging up his own version of the move even if it wasn't a lot and he had to speed it up.
"What th—BLECH!?" Lord Slug's words were cut off when the Special Beam hit the green menace straight into the heart, "AAAAAAHHHHHHHH….!?"
"Hope you enjoy your stay in hell" Gohan said before his attack ceases.
"Damn you…" His soon to be deceased body then fell onto the ship again, which exploded in flames, "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Why didn't I find my home planet and wish for immortality!?"
His body and the ship later became ashes once they both exploded into nothing… Lord Slug's reign of terror… is… Over!
"Well that takes care of that...wanna go home and eat something?" Gohan told Trunks.
"Oh yeah, I got something I want to show mom"
Later…
Back at Capsule Corp, everyone was waiting patiently for the boys to return safely. Bulma finally finished her Time Machine due to the stress and motivation of her son and her husband (or step-husband).
"Hope those boys are okay," Videl said in a sad voice.
"Don't worry, they will be," Chesami assured her, "I know my boyfriend and my mentor! They won't lose that easily!"
And just like that someone knocked on the door, the fact they didn't just kick down meant the bad guys lost and Chesami knew they won since she could feel ki and realized Slugs was gone.
"Is that..." Erasa was about to say as she walked towards the door and opened it, "T-Trunks! Gohan!"
"Hey guys!" Trunks said with a smile.
"Hey everyone" Gohan smiled as well.
"Babe!" Chesami ran towards Trunks and gave him a big hug, "I knew you and Gohan would kick that green puck's ass!"
"It wasn't that hard and with Trunks' help it was quite easy," Gohan said, confident.
"Hehe... T-Thanks... Dad" Trunks said, blushing a bit before seeing Chi-Chi and his mom Bulma towards their direction, 'And here we go, heh'
"I gotta say this was intense" Videl said still remembering it "I never got in a fight quite like this"
"Me neither," Erasa admits, still remembering the fight as well, "It was crazy and awesome at the same time."
"Trunks! Gohan!" Both the ladies screamed in joy as they hugged their baby boys.
"Oof!" Trunks smiled sheepishly "Its ok really, hehehe we barely got hurted"
"Y-Yeah, we're fine, Bulma and Mom, heh" Gohan replied with a sheepish smile.
"I'm just happy that you boys are okay!" Chi-Chi exclaimed with tears in her eyes before gently placing kisses onto their foreheads.
It was a bit embarrassing being treated like a kid like that by his mom, especially in front of Bulma but Gohan could never feel mad about his mom by just showing how much she loved him.
"Me too... I'm so glad that you two are safe" Bulma said with a sad smile before gently kissing her son's forehead.
"M-Mom, heh!" Trunks replies, chuckling.
Bulma then walks towards her man and gives him a nice, sexy kiss on the lips.
"Ugh MOM!"
Trunks went from embarassed to grossed out as his mom went to kiss his mentor like that while Chichi just looked to the other side.
"God damn it, Bulma..."
"Still think that it's weird..." Erasa replies with a pout, filled with jealousy.
"Be quiet, I'll kiss you just as hard later" Videl smirked.
"Yes, babe~, hehe"
Chesami then kisses Trunks on the cheek, "You have me, handsome~"
"Well then this is what I call a heroes welcome hehe"
Everyone chuckles a bit, happy that they were able to save the world from the green menace.
Few minutes Later...
Our heroes were enjoying a tasty meal while Trunks gave his mother a piece of paper.
"I got this from Lord Slug's ship… Thought I would give it to you, Mom" he said with a smile.
Bulma looks at it curiously before grabbing it "Really now? What is this?"
"Some kind of recipe for a youth serum… That would explain why Lord Slug looked so different from before"
"NANI?!" Bulma looked at him as if he found a new set of Dragon balls "Are you serious?!"
Trunks was a bit shocked when his mother screamed, "Y—Yeah…"
"Whoa..." She looked at it again "This changes...everything"
"Oh great, now Gohan won't be kissing a grandma, hehe" Erasa joked around as she ate her noodles.
Videl pinches her arm "Behave Erasa, or else you wont get any where you become a grandma haha"
"Ouch, okay, okay, babe!"
Everyone just laughs at the whole situation as earth has once again been saved, but this only served to remind our heroes that being a protector is a full time job.
But as long as they're together, the peace will surely last…
HEY EVERYONE! Sorry that it took a long time to do this! Been through a lot of stuff in the real world, and had to get Wi-Fi for my house! Got everything now so I'm ready to write more stories that I left behind. Now we're heading to the Time-Travel episode, as well as the Future Imperfect Cell episode! Those two episode will be combined into a Saga. The mid-story will show the Android Saga, Cell Saga and the Cell Games. Of course, I'm gonna finish this story first before I go to the mid-story. I want to thank AdventureKing2017 for his help with the second part of Future Lord Slug! You're awesome, dude!
Read, review, and may GOD BLESS US ALL! Also, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
