Hi guys!
Normally I do these chapters on Saturday or at least at midnight in my time, but I decided that since the wait is long these days to post this now.
Hope you enjoy the chapter.
Unexpected Allies
Rockshow was watching the screen with the help of cameras inside the facility taking in pride in his choice of team.
Silk, a member of Night Edge one of the most deadly assassin organizations in the world.
Yosef, an informant gone wrong, he used his Semblance to kill any huntsmen chasing him and leave them to die by Grimm.
Bisque Matholwch, champion of the Golden Dagers Arena before the Scourge of Anima himself, only captured in a weapons smuggling operation gone wrong.
Amaranth, the crown jewel of the team, capable of making dozens of plans in the spam of seconds.
These four were going a splendid job they maybe different but their strengths blend so well together.
Thanks to in no small part to his Null Laser, created to sedate his experiments.
As soon as he takes the Scourge of Anima's body apart he will need to thank him.
Ever since he heard tales of the Scourge of Anima's immense power eight years ago, he decided to try to see if he can make any Faunus have that kind of power to harness it for humanity.
But no matter what he did they never had the power he wanted. The best he could do was revert their bodies to the first Faunus. More animal than people, though if he were honest all he did was show the true savagery of Faunus.
While he did not find the power he wanted he certainly found a new way to bring Faunus to their rightful place. He will make predatory Faunus like lions and sharks into powerful weapons to be controlled.
Then the weak Faunus such as cats and dogs into pets, or slavery. Finally showing humanity what Faunus are meant to be, tools for mankind's benefit.
But there was also one thing he wanted to know.
He turned to the pod he put in his room and smiled as he put a hand on this pod. "Now what is a monkey doing with this?" So many questions and he can't wait to find them.
XXX
Kron was still standing holding his left arm up in defiance to Team ABYS, it's all he needed really. Still he was struggling to stay awake on his feet. That idiot Raven bootlicker can always land an attack on him, that bad waitress's Semblance can make him lose his balance, the red head, the leader can cause pain to him without needing to overwhelm him, also it seemed to increase his exhaustion, but it was short one's Semblance that is the biggest problem, without control of his body he was an easy target.
As he is he can take them but he needed information, the only thing that's giving him a reason to hold back is that he can't find his pod.
"Better tell me now, where is my pod?" He demanded. "I'll kill you quick if you tell me."
He did his best to hide how close he was to passing out.
"Little brat." Bisque said annoyed. "You just don't know when to stay down do you?"
Amaranth placed a hand on his neck while still looking at Kron.
It looked like he was massaging it but in truth it was a signal that he trained with his teammates to use instead of speaking.
Yosef saw it and knew what to do.
He reached into his pouch and tossed a grenade towards Bisque.
Bisque kicked the flahsbang grenade towards Kron.
Kron was caught off guard seeing it head towards him.
But he remembered seeing that last time.
He covered his eyes with his left arm, the light shined over him.
While he was occupied Yosef ran behind him and reached for him.
Kron couldn't smell him, he had no way of knowing what they were doing while he was shielding his eyes.
But he knew not to just stand there.
Kron placed his left hand down while he closed his eyes and fired a Ki blast.
The blast shook the entire room and it propelled him upward.
Yosef failed to grab him in time.
Amaranth looked up to see that he was flying, so it wasn't a physical ability that allowed him to fly as he thought.
If he regains control of his body they will be unable to bring him down.
He rubbed his left eye.
Another signal.
Silk walked towards Bisque.
"Don't screw this up."
"I won't just do it!"
Silk smiled placing a hand on Bisque and he glowed purple sending him up.
Bisque's gravity was now upward and his feet touched the ceiling.
He ran towards Kron who opened his eyes "Die!" Bisque yelled thrusting his tonfas forward in the center of Kron's chest.
But the Saiyan countered by throwing his left fist forward.
Once his left fist connected with to of the tonfa's force was enough to push back the tonfas.
It made Bisque's arms go back and he stepped back.
"Shit!" He yelled, after all this he can still fight like that?
Kron then threw a fist into Bisque's gut.
The attack forced his orange Aura to shatter as he crashed into the wall. "You… you have this kind of strengths thanks to Raven and you still betray her."
"Ugh" Kron held up a Ki blast ready to disintegrate his whole arm just like the old hag.
But just as was going to throw the attack another came from behind.
Amaranth jumped and stabbed his javelin into his back piercing his clothing and even the skin.
It wasn't strong enough to impale him, but enough to force him towards where he sent Bisque.
The brute recovered and grinned as he thrusted his hands forward into Kron's face.
The force was enough to send him spinning downward.
He crashed into the ground making a crater.
"Gr" Kron pushed himself off the ground with his left arm, only able to control his one limb.
These four aren't strong enough to really hurt him. When he fought that mutant Grimm they would've been a problem.
Still their teamwork, their Semblances, their a true pain.
On top of it he was on the verge of getting knocked out.
He'll need to figure something out quickly. He was not going to be killed by four idiots!
Immediately he looked around, the short one that can change his senses was keeping his distance.
Wise move since he was the target.
Wait, where's the woman?
Silk was behind him and reached for him.
Kron felt the slightest touch.
He turned and swung right away with his left arm.
Silk tried to evade but he was struck first and sent rolling back and was on her back, her Aura was heavily damaged.
"Nice try!" Kron yelled
"Y-you! How dare you hit my face!" Silk yelled. "You little brat! I'll peel your skin off for that!"
Kron chuckled at her, but then a barrage of bullets surrounded him. He used his left arm to block as much of the bullets as possible but he couldn't move his waist or other arm.
They exploded in fire, setting some of his coat.
He looked up to see Bisque still standing upside down with a smile.
"Hahaha" The brute used his Semblance to have his bullets fire it in different directions.
Kron fired a Ki blast in his direction.
Bisque was hit and slammed into the wall.
But the Saiyan couldn't celebrate for long as beside him Amaranth ran forward and tried to stab his javelin in his eye.
Kron still didn't know how to move his head so he used his left hand to catch the javelin.
At that moment Amaranth let go and grabbed the Saiyan's wrist, using his Semblance to effect his wrist.
"Grr!" He felt too much pain in his veins and was forced to let go.
Amaranth grabbed the javelin and stabbed it into his abdomen, he saw a small amount of blood. Clearly he was still had whatever his energy source is despite being tired.
Kron tried to back hand.
But he telegraphed enough for Amaranth to duck despite the speed difference, he then pulled back his javelin and then thrusted the back of his javelin up the boy's chin.
Bisque fell off from the ceiling as Silk's Semblance wore off.
He slammed his tonfas down Kron's face forcing him to let go.
Bisque rose his boot and tried to slam it down.
But the Saiyan grabbed his foot and bended it.
"Gah!" Bisque's leg bended the wrong way and he fell to the side.
Kron then turned towards Amaranth and threw a Ki blast his way.
But he saw it coming and side stepped out of the way.
The Saiyan still couldn't move his other limbs correctly, but he can control his Ki fine.
He floated off the ground and made his body stand right up.
"This is a little tricky, I only know how to move my left arm, but I can fly just fine." Kron chuckled.
"I can see that." Amaranth admitted. "I did not expect that, as I do not understand the rules of your ability."
Kron found that wording strange, he acted like he knew he didn't have Aura. Ozpin didn't tell him did he?
As if reading his mind Amaranth went on to explain. "It's clear you do not possess Aura, you have too many abilities for it to be of one Semblance."
"Sharp, but your an idiot going up against me with these idiots, especially him." He looked down at Bisque.
The brute was grabbing his leg and bended it until he managed to force his bones to realigned. He stood up glaring at him.
Amaranth watched him warily, he can see his eyelids closing.
It was a hard decision.
Either keep fighting him and try to knock him out while his senses were short circuited or keep him talking to have the Null Laser's sedation knock him out.
Maybe he can do both.
"You came a long way to find us." Amaranth stated.
"You stole my stuff!" Kron yelled. "Give me the hag's sword back and my pod! Now!"
Two minutes left.
"The sword stays with me!" Bisque yelled. "And stop calling my love a hag! You ungrateful little brat!"
Kron growled at him but remained focused on the red head since he seemed to be the brains of the group.
"Do that and I'll let three of you live, the only one I want to kill is that pathetic hag worshiping freak!"
Bisque was about to attack in response for insulting his so called 'Soul Mate'.
But Amaranth rose a hand to signal him not to.
"Your pod?" Amaranth asked. "You didn't steal it?"
"Have you seen anyone else with that kind of pod?" Kron asked annoyed as his body was feeling heavy. "It's mine! And you bastards took it from me, where is it!"
So he didn't take it, that's valuable intel.
"Where did you get it from?"
He loved to talk so it wouldn't hurt to try to get him to admit where he got it, even if they capture this monster he doubts Rockshow can interrogate him even while he's cutting him.
"None of your business." Kron responded. "Now hand my stuff over."
Thirty seconds left.
"Your pod is not in this building." Amaranth stated. "We know where you can find it."
"Where?" Kron demanded.
The team leader continued. "It is a hidden laboratory in Mantle, I can show you where to find out after you deal with Bisque."
"Hey what!" Bisque yelled at his apparent betrayal.
Silk and even Yosef scoffed at the idiot knowing that their leader had a plan in action.
Kron said nothing for a few moments as if thinking of the offer.
5 seconds..
4 seconds..
3 seconds..
Amaranth glanced at Silk.
The woman placed her hand on the ground Kron was floating over.
It wasn't built in the ground it was a plat form placed on the ground for this.
Kron felt the ground lift of and it made him stumble.
1 second..
With him stumbling Yosef placed a hand on the "Faunus'" back.
Kron's body glowed yellow and his body short circuited again, now he couldn't even move his body again.
"Idiot!" Bisque yelled as he slammed his tonfas into Kron's side.
The Saiyan was on guard but he didn't expect them to move the actual ground.
It was enough to force Kron to stumble.
Bisque laughed as he smashed his tonfas all over his body.
Kron had an angry face as he felt his entire body attacked all over his body.
The brute then ended it with a kick at Kron's body.
Again it forced the boy forced back.
Silk then went back at his side and touched him.
Kron felt his gravity going up.
He landed up at the ceiling, still unable to move his body.
This made Kron clear with something, there willl be no talking, he is going to kill them and use Roman to find out where his pod is!
Silk smiled as she turned to Amaranth and grabbed his shoulders, a little too long for his liking.
She finally used her Semblance to change his gravity upwards.
The red head now stood on the ceiling and walked towards Kron.
"You… Your dead! Just wait!" Kron yelled.
"Perhaps" Amaranth said as he got one knee and grabbed his head.
He focused his Semblance to use Internal Strife.
"Gr" Kron felt his brain it was almost as if it was boiling. "Ahhh!" He screamed, but he couldn't move his body right, he tried to move his arm his left foot shook, he tried to move his head his hip moved to the side.
This maybe the most pain he ever felt in his life and he couldn't fight back.
Yosef chuckled watching the mighty Scourge of Anima in pain.
"We're doing it! Keep going Amaranth! Even the mighty scourge was no match for us!" The usual sheepish team member showed a more sadistic side. "Cause him so much pain that he'll have nightmares when he thinks of us! Show him how worthless all his muscle is!"
"Finally your acting like what I've heard." Silk said smirking.
She thought what he had done to earn death row was a lie. Yosef was said to stalk powerful huntsman, use his Semblance and torture them to compensate for his own weakness. Apparently it was true though he only shows his true nature when he believes his winning.
He really was a coward.
Amaranth kept flooding Kron's head with his Semblance increasing the pain with every passing second.
"My Semblance is very useful against stronger enemies, it's unfortunate that it has no effect on the Grimm." Amaranth admitted. "I'll be reaching my limit soon, you should allow the Null Laser to knock you out, you won't have to suffer much if you do so."
Kron didn't listen he forced himself awake despite the pain and the adding fatigue. "Wait till I get my hands on you!"
Amaranth turned to Bisque and nodded.
"Finally!" The brute chuckled as Silk placed a hand on him sending him upward.
Bisque stood over the helpless Kron and pulled out Omen with a lightning blade.
"Try to kill him." Amaranth stepped back. "No one will be able to restrain him if we try to bring him alive."
"So you really are letting me kill him?" Bisque asked smiling. "Gotta say, your way better than I thought you'd be, I hope he let's me take the head to my love."
Kron groaned hearing that. "Please just kill me! You going on and on about that hag is torture enough!"
Bisque wasted no time and slashed across Kron's body.
It caused only minor injuries all over, but the electricity definitely hurt. And it was getting him closer to being knocked out, with everything going on he couldn't try to move and figure out how to move his body.
The orange haired man had a sick smile as he kept cutting him, he was trying to kill him but he was so happy that he wasn't dead yet! He remembered what he had said, that he had taken Raven's arm! This disgusting monster mauled his love! Maybe he'll take his arm before killing him! Yes bring her his arm! She will bring him in a loving embrace.
"Die! Hurry up and die! Bring me to my love!" Bisque yelled in a delusional yell.
Kron was continued to be cut for a few moments.
He still can't move his body.
But his Ki, maybe he can try something else.
He used his flight and added speed to it.
His body flew up and it was strong enough to force Bisque off of him.
The brute fell at his back.
Amaranth turned his javelin into a rifle and fired at the Saiyan's back, causing small explosions at his back.
Kron growled and smirked at Bisque.
"This won't save you!" The brute smiled. "I can tell your already going to sleep." He walked closer.
As he did Kron remembered something he wanted to say to him. "Y'know something, I've been thinking of your story Bisque, about how you helped Raven steal weapons and got yourself captured."
"What about it?" Bisque asked as he ran forward and slashed across Kron's coat cutting it and even some blood.
Kron was getting closer and closer to being knocked out. "Don't you think it's strange how you got captured and Raven got away?"
Bisque growled as he tried to cut his throat.
But the blade was stopped at his neck.
Kron kept smiling as a little blood left his neck but nothing fatal, it was like a bad shave. "Ever think that Raven might've planned for you to be captured so she wouldn't have had to deal with you?"
That made Bisque paused. "What?"
Behind Kron Amaranth took his javelin and stabbed into Kron's back.
But the monkey lifted tail wrapped around the weapon.
Amaranth inwardly sighed he figured out how to use his tail before they could knock him out. What's worse is Bisque couldn't stay on task.
"That's not true."Bisque denied. "Raven would never do that to me! I'm her soulmate!"
Kron laughed. "Did Raven tell you that or are you just imagining that?"
"She said we'd be together if I helped her!" Bisque yelled.
He remembered that day like it were yesterday.
XXX
14 years ago
Raven stood in front of Bisque with her mask.
"I have given it some thought, I will give you a test, help me steal an Atlas weapons shipment and I will allow you to join our tribe."
Bisque had a happy smile. "And, what of the other thing?"
The woman's mask was hiding her expression, in Bisque's mind she was probably blushing.
"Yes….you may be at my side…if you succeed." Raven said in an uncomfortable tone.
To Bisque it was a shy tone.
"Yes, thank you Raven, I promise I will raise our future children to greatness!"
Raven didn't respond to that for a moment. "Only if you are able to escape.." She pointed out.
Bisque had no problem with that, he would spend the rest of his life with the most powerful woman in all of Remnant and have the most gorgeous children with her!
XXX
Bisque explained that and Kron couldn't help but chuckle at that which was making the brute
angry.
"Really? So she was willing to have brats with you." He chuckled. "She's a whore on top of everything else." The Saiyan laughed.
"Don't call her that!" Bisque threw a fist against the boy's cheek.
Kron chuckled, as he looked at him with blood going down his mouth. "Maybe not, knowing the lying hag she is, she probably didn't intend to. Thank god she didn't, it was a miracle her daughter turned out the way she did." Meeting Taiyang he realized how Yang turned out the way she did without Raven screwing her up.
That statement made Bisque pause, he didn't want to hear that.
"D-daughter" Bisque looked confused. "Sh-she had a daughter, no, no that's not right, sh-she would only have kids with me."
So he didn't know about Yang that made sense, he already decided he was going to kill this moron but it would be fun to let him know what a waste of time his devotion was.
Rather than try to salvage his attention Amaranth knew he had to try his other contingencies.
He looked down at Silk and nodded.
Silk clapped her hands together.
This undid her Semblance and the three upside down warriors starting fall down.
Kron used his Ki to float since he could only control his tail right now.
Bisque was caught off guard and landed on the ground on top of his head.
Amaranth proceeded to fall but he tossed his javelin right at Kron's face.
The Saiyan's tail caught it with his tail and smiled. "You just don't learn do you?" As long as he can move one of his body parts this fight was as good as over.
Amaranth lifted a hand showing a button and pressed it.
Kron was confused but then the tip of the staff glowed and fired Ice Dust into his face.
It froze Kron's head forcing him to let go of the javelin.
Amaranth caught it and stabbed into the ground before bending it and it propelled him upwards.
Kron used his tail to smash the ice off his face.
But as soon as he was free Amaranth was in front of him and swung a kick to the side of his face.
Though it did little to hurt him and he used his tail to wrap around his leg and squeezed.
Amaranth showed no reaction and grabbed his tail before it glowed red.
"Grr!" Kron felt a surge of pain in his tail but he refused to let go.
Just then a barrage of spinning blades hit his back sinking into his coat and even into his skin.
He turned to see Silk standing upside down and smirking before blowing him a kiss.
Kron was about to fly in her direction.
But Amaranth used this chance to throw an elbow into his jaw forcing his head to move forward.
He then placed his two fingers into the boys eyes, it looked like he was just poking his eyes but it was far more sinister.
Kron felt an intense pain in his eyes causing him to scream.
He was about to move his tail to slam into Amaranth's body.
But Silk swooped from the ceiling and grabbed Amaranth before he would be hit.
Once they landed on the ground the leader turned towards Bisque. "You can interrogate him after he bring him down."
The orange haired man shook himself and he jumped up to Kron.
Kron was still clinging to his eyes which suffered great pain, it had been a long time since he felt this much and so he was vulnerable.
Bisque slammed his hands down on the top of Kron's head.
It was enough to make Kron fall to the ground.
Amaranth ran towards the falling boy and kicked into his spine sending him towards Silk.
The purple haired woman stabbed into his chest, but again it could barely break the skin even with the Crusader Armor.
Kron was about to wrap his tail around her neck, but he glowed purple changing his gravity and forcing him to fly back.
Bisque took this opportunity to strike his tonfas into his back.
The Saiyan was actually effected enough to open his mouth leaving some spittle.
The brute didn't stop there and fired into his back causing multiple fire explosions into the Scourge's back.
Bisque then pulled out Omen with Ice Dust and slashed the ground forming a block of ice with Kron trapped inside.
Kron was now trapped in once place once again.
With him trapped Bisque then proceeded to smash his tonfa's into his face making him weaker and weaker.
But the Saiyan still smiled, this fight while unfair it was kinda fun for him to struggle.
"Tell me" He was slammed across the cheek by a tonfa. "Do you know" He was smacked again. "Raven's Semblance?"
Bisque stopped and glared at him. "What?"
"That's a no." Kron responded still trapped in ice. "It's called Kindred Link, she's able to open a portal to anyone she's close to, has she ever done that for you?"
Bisque paused again, he never heard of her Semblance or seen her use it!
Amaranth forced his javelin towards Kron's face.
But to their amazement the tip was caught.
Kron opened his mouth and caught the javelin in his teeth.
Then with just his tail he was able to break the ice trapping him apart, freeing him and he actually struck the end of his tail into Bisque's stomach.
The impact from the short limb actually forced the brute to fall on his back.
At the same time Kron spat out the javelin.
Amaranth tried to chop at his neck.
But Kron grabbed his wrist with his tail and tossed him aside with it.
The read head hit the wall and was actually surprised, in all footage he had never seen him fight with his tail like that.
The Saiyan looked towards his tail as right now it was all he can fight with.
"Huh, you know I barely use my tail for a fight, maybe it's time to change that." This Semblance was a blessing in disguise.
Silk went behind Kron and threw multiple daggers at his back.
But unfortunately Kron used his tail to smack alll of them to the ground.
Amaranth figured this was the case, this boy is a natural born fighter, that makes this even harder to plan against. If this keeps going on, he may have to use…his last resort. It'd be a shame but he can already see his other plans wouldn't work on him.
For now he'll just keep trying it would work better once it's obvious that he has the upper hand.
"Shut up and die you little brat!"
He slammed a fist forward.
But Kron's tail wrapped around his wrist.
The brute threw another fist.
But to his shock Kron was able to lift his left hand and catch it.
"Oh look, now I can move my left arm." The Saiyan grinned gaining more control of his body.
Bisque growled looking down at him. "You! I swear for what you did to Raven-"
"You mean the hag who betrayed you?" Kron asked with a smirk.
"What?" Bisque seethed.
"Come on, Raven managed to take the Atlas weapons but you got captured, don't you think it's strange how she got out of it unscathed?"
The brute seemed to stop reporting and looked like he was thinking for a moment.
"Also if you two were 'soulmates' as you like to say, she should have been able to use her Semblance to free you, she had fourteen years to do that so why didn't she?"
And finally it looked like Bisque was actually lamenting his words.
Silk ran behind the Scourge and tried to stab into his back.
Kron noticed that and used his left arm to punch up Bisque's jaw, he then turned and swiped with his tail against the woman's face.
"Oops, sorry, your face was an opening." Kron chuckled knowing that the woman was sensitive about it.
Silk was on the ground and grabbed her face, she pulled something out of her pocket and looked at her mirror. It showed a bruise.
"You! Why are you destroying my beautiful face!" Silk yelled in rage.
Kron rolled his eyes. "Calm down lady, it's not even that much to look out, you almost have as many wrinkles as the hag I know."
From the background Yosef looked worried. Doesn't this kid know that you should never say calm down to a woman?
Silk growled. "That is it!" She placed her hands on some large boxes on her sides.
They glowed purple and headed towards the Scourge.
Amaranth realized what she was going to do and realized what she was about to do, he jumped far away from the spot onto another side of the large room next to Yosef.
Kron watched as the cargo headed towards him, he wondered what was so deadly-
He saw that they were filled with various Dust crystals.
"Oh" Kron realized perhaps too late as the Dust crates crashed into him.
Bisque rolled out of the way and fired bullets at the Dust crystals.
Both Dust crystals exploded surrounding Kron in a cloud of smoke.
Amaranth looked on unimpressed, he didn't hear a scream of pain, nor the sound of a a body hitting the ground.
Silk laughed loudly looking at the cloud. "How's that you disrespectful little brat?"
No one said a thing, Amaranth cursed in his mind. Now they do not have their target on sight, this team was starting to fall apart. As soon as an opening comes he will resort to that and if Rockshow kills him for it than at least he would die knowing that he did the best he could.
"Hmm, I would've preferred something more explosive."
Kron walked out his coat missing it's right sleeve showing his bare arm and his pants missing the knee portion on the left.
Silk was flabbergasted at the sight, that was enough Dust to cripple any huntsman even with this special armor. And what's even worse is that Yosef's Semblance seemed to have worn off! He only had minor burns and he control of his body, even she knew that this battle will not end well.
But Bisque didn't seem to care as he fired multiple bullets at the side, then he used Redirect to guid the bullets in multiple places surrounding Kron.
Kron was confident he could tank these bullets but he was starting to get close to passing out, the more he moved the more tired he was. He lifted his hands showing ten energy balls on each finger tips.
"Guided Swarm." Kron said simply as the orbs surrounded him shielding him from the fire Dust bullets and creating a smoke screen.
Amaranth knew what would happen next.
He looked to Yosef and stabbed with his Javelin towards him.
"Huh?" Yosef panicked seeing his leader supposedly turn on him.
But really he was anticipating Kron who in that moment was right in front of Yosef with his back turned towards Amaranth making it the perfect position for him to attack.
Kron's tail wrapped around the javelin before it could reach his back.
Yosef tried to reach for the boy hoping to shortcircuit him but to his horror his wrists were grabbed in his hands.
Amaranth let go of the javelin and slammed a kick to the side of the Scourge's head.
But of course it only made his head turn.
"Y'know" Kron's tail then swiped across Amaranth's face sending him back against the wall, he then focused on Yosef. "Your Semblance was a pain, but it was great training."
Bisque ran by the boy's side with his tonfas ready to slam it into his face.
Silk ran to his side in order to try to stab into his neck.
Kron kicked Bisque in the stomach and swiped his tail against the woman's face again sending both to the sides of the room.
"I never thought to use my tail for a fight like this." Kron said smiling at the woman who was on the ground again thanks to his mentioned limb. "In fact you inspired a new technique for my arsenal."
"I-in that case you can pay me back by letting me go!" Yosef yelled unable to break free.
"I just offered that to you, and you three turned me down." The Saiyan grinned evil much to his fear. "Instead you can be my new attack's first victim."
Amaranth stood up and pressed a button on his javelin turning it into a rifle, he then fired at him hoping to force him to let go of their teammate, his power may be the most useful.
But Kron just used his tail to deflect the bullets.
"Now, I think I'll call this"
He encountered a Grimm called a sphinx that had a snake for a tail.
Kron's tail started to glow red being surrounded by energy that took shape.
"Sphinx Tail."
The energy surrounding Kron's tail took shape into a snake and wrapped around Yosef's neck and lifting him up.
Yosef choked as the Ki snake squeezed tighter, and then the snake widened it's fangs and sunk into the shortest team member's neck.
His pale yellow Aura shattered and blood flowed out like a waterfall where the Ki snake bit.
"God damn it" Silk squeezed her fists, she didn't care for him of course but without his Semblance they had no hope.
Kron's Ki snake let go dropping the body on the ground.
He then turned to the remaining three members of the team that hassled him. The red head showed no emotion perhaps to hide how nervous he was or maybe he had another plan, Silk looked angry seeing that he wasn't the worse for were, and Bisque seemed ready to attack at any moment not understanding the advantage the short one gave them.
Amaranth wasn't nervous but rather accepted the situation, he had to in order to properly think of their next move. Yosef's Semblance was the difference maker in this fight even with how they weakened him. But there is one chance, if he's right than it's a possibility.
"Alright, now, does anyone want to tell me where my pod I-" He stopped mid sentence and fell forward he put his hand on the ground to catch himself.
Amaranth waisted no time and stabbed his javelin into the ground. Unleashing ice towards the Scourge.
Kron looked up drowsy to see the ice headed for him, he jumped missing the ice, not wanting to be frozen again.
Silk took this opportunity and threw more of her daggers towards the Scourge.
Kron was struck all over his body, not hurting him but it was making his fatigue worse.
It was enough for Bisque to jump behind him and slam his fists down the Scourge's back.
It sent him to the ground.
Amaranth brought his javelin down where he was.
Kron floated up.
Amaranth used his javelin to jump and kick into his stomach.
The Saiyan hit the wall and Bisque slammed his tonfa's side, his ribs and across his cheek. He pulled back and threw a final hit.
But Kron finally caught it in his grip and smiled. "So.. have you thought of what I said about the hag?"
Bisque said nothing and he only tried to throw another.
The Saiyan already threw a spear hand in Bisque's throat and a spin kick across his face forcing him back.
"I bet once you got captured the hag breathed a sigh of relief." That made him angrier.
Silk touched several crates filled with weapons and Dust. She used her Semblance to change their gravity pull towards Kron.
The Saiyan fired multiple Ki blasts at the crates causing multiple explosions, then Bisque fired multiple shots of Fire Dust bullets, redirecting them towards his vital points.
Kron rose his hands and fired multiple Ki blasts, the bullets collided with him.
Amaranth tossed his javelin at the ground Kron was standing on.
The javelin caused the ice to spread at his feet keeping him in place for a second.
Which lead to Silk to try to swing her dagger to one of his eyes.
Kron grabbed her hand and pulled before smashing his elbow into her face.
This caused the woman to scream out in rage having her face struck again.
Kron caught another punch from Bisque.
"Amaranth! Why isn't the Null laser working?" The orange head yelled.
The leader said nothing, it was over, nothing they do can bring him down.
That settled it he was going to do what he must. He pulled out a scroll from his pocket and looked at Silk and Bisque. This can only end in one way.
Kron looked at Bisque refusing to let go of his hand.
Bisque screamed as he threw another punch.
But Kron caught it with his other hand.
"You!" Bisque screamed as he pulled the trigger on his tonfas firing Fire Dust bullets against the palms of his hands.
But the Saiyan only smiled as the Fire Dust bullets kept hitting them, it burned but he didn't care he can see that the brute was losing it. Also the burn was actually keeping him from passing out.
"Raven stabbed me in the back because she thought I was too dangerous, she probably let you get captured because-"
"Shut up! You don't know Raven! She would never do that to me!" He kept pulling the triggers hoping to burn his palms to force him to let go but much to his frustration he only laughed, in fact his grip got even tighter.
"Oh right, you would know, after all I only spent four years with the old hag, how long did you?" He asked almost in a teasing tone.
He had only known her for a month, and he only spent a few minutes with her. But, she was everything he wanted, strong, cunning and cold blooded.
"Also she had a daughter with a man way better than you."
Bisque screamed and headbutted the Scourge but it seemed to hurt him more than him, he had lost three quarters of his Aura.
"I met him he fights way better than you, I doubt she wanted you to father any of her kids, I met her daughter and she's way better than her mother ever could be, better than any brat you and her would have."
"Shut up! Shut up!" Bisque yelled as he body kicked him him.
Kron finally let go more out of pity than necessity.
Bisque pressed a button on Omen's sheath and pulled out a yellow blade, indicating it was Lightning Dust.
"Come on Bisque, you know Raven, if she is as noble as you think she is, wouldn't she have gotten you out of your cage?" Kron asked as though he wanted to try to get through to him. "If she's as smart as you claim wouldn't she have not allowed you to be captured? How can she get her weapons with her tribe unscathed but you were the only one captured in that heist?"
Bisque stopped and thought of that day he was captured.
XXX
14 Years Ago
Bisque was standing with his arms crossed as the Branwen Tribe was putting the weapons in the crate. His job was to watch out for any interference, he would spend it ogling Raven.
"Focus" Raven chastised, in his mind that was just her being shy.
"This is Seargant James Ironwood. Your all under arrest!" A young James Ironwood shouted.
A group of huntsmen and soldiers surrounded them.
Raven turned to Bisque. "Keep them occupied, we'll take the weapons out of sight." She and her tribesmen moved the crate out behind the vehicle they stole it from.
Bisque killed a team of Huntsmen on his own but he was overwhelmed.
Raven, nor any tribesman was found, or the weapons.
Bisque assumed that she had to protect her tribesmen first, or that Grimm arrived, some reason that she couldn't save him.
His infatuation with her would make him think this for fourteen years.
XXX
For fourteen years he was trapped in a cell living a life sentence. If she had the portal ability that he described she would have come for him. And she didn't send anyone to help him against the enemy soldiers. Does that mean-
"No! No!" Bisque screamed as he swung his tonfas at him in a desperate attempt to kill Raven's greatest enemy. "Raven has no reason to be so cowardly! She raised you and you betrayed her!"
"After she betrayed me, three times." Kron retorted and rolled his eyes.
He then swung up Bisque's chin. "Manticore Massacre" the punch sent Bisque flying upwards. He chased after him throwing a kick, followed by another uppercut, then bashed his knee up the man's chin.
The force made Bisque's body flip with his front facing the hole in the ceiling.
Kron dashed down threw the hole, as the technique implies a manticore can be seen as he flies down with his fists aimed down.
His fists connected with Bisque's abdomen.
The impact shook the hole building.
Bisque was gasping having the air taken out of him, his orange crusader armor broke on impact, his Aura was now down to zero.
He was trying to get the wind back in his lungs.
Kron stood in front of him and grabbed omen which was next to his hand.
"No" Bisque finally tried to speak. "L-let go of my love's weapon."
Kron looked at the yellow blade. "Y'know she tried to teach me how to use a sword once, I told her over and over that I prefer using my bare hands." Not long before her first betrayal she tried to convince him to learn how to use a blade. "And as I said, the old hag never mentioned you, she had a kid with someone else, far better than you, do you really think she was your 'soulmate' whatever that is."
Bisque tried to respond but he couldn't, he was right. All evidence points that she used him to get what she wanted and left him to rot.
But like clockwork the brute continued. "No, she had a reason for it! She had to have, she wouldn't have done that to me! She is the greatest warrior to ever live! She would never betray me! And you! Whatever Raven did to you, you deserved it!"
Kron showed no mercy and used Omen to slice the brute in half from above his legs.
Bisque screamed as he was separated from his legs, blood spilled out his mouth.
"Like I said, you are no fighting champion, just a pathetic boot licker of Raven's, no matter what she did you always find a way to justify it, it's so disgusting, just die and maybe figure out the old hag isn't the warrior you fantasize about in the next dimension."
Kron said coldly before grabbing the sheath from Bisque's legs and placed the blade in it. As he walked away Bisque was breathing his last breaths.
"Raven..woudln't… would she?" Bisque asked that final question as he finally lost his life.
Kron was disgusted at the man, a boot licker until the end, at least he won't have to hear his disgusting devotion ever again, he looked ahead to see the leader standing without any sign of fear as though he still had other tricks up his sleeve.
"Two down, you got anything else for me?" Kron asked holding Omen in it's sheathe.
Amaranth stared at the corpse of Bisque right behind him and Yosef next to the Scourge's boot. He just needs one more thing.
Silk immediately jumped over Kron and right behind Amaranth, she had an angry face as she had a lot of marks on her face. "You! I'll make sure the eggheads cut you open without any anasteisa! I'll record your screaming and listen to it every night I go to sleep!"
Kron chuckled seeing the old bitch go on and on about her damn looks. "Sure lady now shut it, the grown ups are talking." Amaranth proved that he was the leader of this group. "Last chance tell me where my damn pod is!" He yelled irritated that he hadn't have slept.
Silk had a dagger up ready for any plan that Amaranth had, surely he had something else they can do with just the two of him, plus he was still exhausted clearly.
"Silk" Amaranth said still staring at Kron. "Are you ready?"
She knew it, he had a plan, she was going to reward him for getting her out of this alive. "Yes!"
Amaranth pulled Silk and kicked into her back.
Silk screamed as she landed in front of Kron not far from the corpses. "W-what?" She looked up at the Scourge shocked that their leader put her in front of him.
Kron looked down at her and then at him. Was he using her as a shield.
Silk turned angry at the betrayal. "What do you think your doing Amaranth?!"
Amaranth didn't even look at her and lifted his scroll, on it were pictures of Bisque, Yosef, and Silk. He had convinced Rockshow to grant him access to his teammates bombs, in case he needed a last resort.
He then stared at Kron ignoring the screams of his teammate who he no longer had any use for.
"As I thought, you were too strong, we'll meet again, Scourge of Anima." He swiped on the pictures of his teammates and ran out of the room they were in.
Kron was about to race after him but then he saw Silk's body glowed.
"No! No!" She screamed as her body glowed brighter and brighter. That bastard! He was going to detonate her after all she helped him with!
The same went for Yosef and Bisque's corpses.
All three exploded around Kron, the explosives in their heads were much stronger than they had thought, each of their bodies made huge explosions.
Kron awoke and his vision faded faster, he had a few scratches but the bombs did little to him. He looked around, Amaranth was nowhere to be seen, he wanted to sleep, but no he had to find him before he escapes, he needs to find his pod!
"Where are you!?" He used his intense speed to search for him.
XXX
Amaranth made it to a hallway.
He pressed his hand on a wall and it opened, the steel wall separated showing a secret door, he walked his way through as the steel wall closed behind him. He made his way through the secret entrance, he was glad that he managed to convince Rockshow of a backup plan should they fail to capture the target.
On his way out he pressed a red button.
Hopefully this will knock him out, if not then at least they gain something out of him destroying the research facility.
XXX
Kron sped his way through the building all the way to the top level of the base. Nothing.
Just then an explosion came, the entire building was collapsing.
"That coward!" First he used his own teammates as bombs then he destroys the whole building?! He screamed not in fear but rage that he allowed that bastard to escape!
The entire laboratory crashed to the ground as a firey explosion showed that can be seen for miles.
All that was left was rubble, it began to move until finally a fist broke through it. Kron climbed his way out of the rubble covered in dirt and bruises, half his coat was torn off.
He panted as he stood up holding Omen. "Damn it, where is…. My pod." His vision swam finally his body was giving in to the fatigue. He fell down on his face into the rubble.
As the mighty Scourge of Anima hit the ground a few shadowy figures came to his side and took his body.
XXX
Far from the base
Amaranth was now in an underground base far from the facility he was in.
He sat down and pressed a button on his wrist.
A hologram of a man with huge cybernetic arm stood on his watch.
"I see your plan failed." Rockshow said in an annoyed tone.
"As I told you it could." Amaranth retorted. "I promised you a plan with a chance to succeed, as I thought you did not have enough information on the limits of his power."
Rockshow growled but realized he was right. The Scourge of Anima is far stronger than they expected, if he was at fulls strength he likely would have killed them with a single blow each. Actually if it wasn't for the pod he wants so badly he wouldn't have held back, he kept them alive for information.
"You have proven your point." Rockshow sighed, how can this monkey be so strong? Another reason he needs to be detained. "Did you get what you promised?"
Amaranth lifted a hand showing a vial with very little red substance at the bottom.
"Finally" Rockshow chuckled. "I've been wanting a sample of the Scourge's DNA for years, and you have done it, good work Amaranth."
The red head didn't respond only placing the vial safely in his jacket.
"When will you start phase 3?" Amaranth asked?
"It's already in progress, all we have to do is wait, after this, it won't be long before we unite Atlas against the Scourge of Anima." The mad scientist chuckled. "I do apologize in advance for your old comrade's fall."
Amaranth crossed his arms and showed no reaction. "James has proven that is time for him step down, and if we won't, we will force it before he can make another mistake that costs our country.
XXX
Kron's heavy eyelids opened, he sat up and looked around. He was in the hotel room that Roman had booked for them.
He growled, did they take him here? Why? He shouldn't' have needed their help, he stood up and looked to see a coat identical to what Roman had tailored for him. He took the black coat and wore it before exiting the room.
When he opened it he can see Roman and Neo outside leaning against the wall. "Bout time kiddo, was worried sick about you." Roman said in a joking manner.
"Tch" Kron was annoyed hearing that. "You were the ones that pulled me out of the rubble?"
"As much as we want to take credit for that, no, it was your new friends." Roman responded.
Kron looked confused hearing that. "What?"
"We'll explain that later." Roman said right away. "So you found the trophy, but no pod?"
He growled as he heard that. "No, I couldn't find it anywhere and one of the weaklings ran off."
"Oof tough break kiddo, but I'm sure we can get some help to find it, I doubt they would leave your pod in a building to explode." He wasn't sure what the 'pod' was but it sounded too valuable to leave at the bottom of a ruined building.
"What help?" He asked.
Roman walked and Neo gestured him to follow.
Kron begrudgingly did so, wondering what he said.
They left the hotel and actually walked out of town.
"Where are we going?" He asked surprised that Roman was willing to go into the woods.
"So I kinda have to apologize, you made a right move after all."
Kron would have asked what but as soon as they entered the forest and stumbled upon a campfire with over a dozen tents.
It was various Faunus sitting around the fire or in front of the tents, the same group he rescued.
"The hell is this?" Kron asked, he told them to go home.
"Good your awake." The lizard Faunus he saved walked to him. "Thank you for setting us free, in return we would like to help you find your possession that Mr. Torchwich had told us about."
Kron was confused, they were the group he rescued, the ex White Fang members He turned to see Roman grinning ear to ear at him.
The Saiyan composed himself and chose to make them leave. "I told you all to go home. You will only get in my way, I won't be babysitting you all."
"A lot of us did." The Lizard Faunus responded. "But we know you said, how you intend to remove the Silver Bullets off the face of Remnant." He quoted what he said. "We have watched as they turned our brethren into these monsters, we want to to help you find what they took from you, and destroy the Silver Bullets."
The other Faunus that were caged stepped up and made similar sentiments, not wanting to go home until the Silver Bullets were gone.
"Scourge of Anima" The Lizard Faunus continued. "Allow us to help and we promise to help you find them, all we ask is to see them fall."
Kron couldn't be more confused just what happened when he was knocked out. Just last night they hated him but he saved them once and now this. Quite the strange turn of events.
Roman smiled seeing all this unfold, saving these animals actually helped, more meatsheilds for his usage. This was shaping up to be more interesting.
XXX
Far Away
Inside the forest there was a campfire surrounded by men all of them eating some food.
"Can you believe our luck?" A man standing asked. He was wearing a black jacket with white shoulder pads, a Manticore skull bone face at the back. "Ever since the Branwen Tribe were wiped out we have been taking all the rewards from their turf!"
"I know boss, that bitch Raven always charged us 80% of our take whenever we robbed even a single traveler." One of the grunts agreed. "Ever since they disappeared it's been nothing but smooth sailing, at the rate we're going the Manticore Gang will be the ones claiming turf!"
The leader frowned when he heard that.
"Speaking of, we should make sure that they can't come back." He grinned. "We need to find Raven's favorite bitch what was her name?"
"Vernal." One of them said. "Yeah I thought of that too boss, she has a good bounty on her to we'd have enough to build a base in the center of Anima."
Life may be good but it'd better to make it stay that way.
"I almost had her to a couple weeks ago." The leader responded. "I managed to take her eye and would have captured her but then another bounty hunter tried to take her."
Just as the leader was lamenting his failure to capture Raven's protege three men arrived with various crates.
"Good to see you back, what have you got?"
"Take a look!" One of the Manticore Gang said tossing a crate. "Found a Vacuo shipment, the finest jewels and all the booze we can drink!"
The rest of the group cheered that they have more to add to their growing riches. It was almost as if there was nothing that can ruin there day.
"Excuse me gentlemen." A deep voice with a gentle tone spoke.
They turned to someone that wasn't apart of their group.
It was a young man with light skin and long green hair that went past his shoulders. "Hello there, I am sorry if I'm interrupting your time." The young man said as politely as he could , in his mouth fangs could be seen.
The men staring at him said nothing and only seemed confused at what they were saying.
"Oh, I'm terribly sorry, I did interrupt something didn't I?" It was strange hearing his deep voice talk so politely. "I promise I won't take much of your time, I just need your help in knowing where I can find-"
"Why are you naked?"
The young man looked down and was surprised. "Oh, I'm sorry haven't needed clothes for the longest time so I haven't bothered looking for anywhere, if you want I could grab some leaves and-"
"Shoot him." The leader said annoyed by his constant talking.
The young man was confused. "Huh?"
The pirates all fired bullets, all infused with different kinds of Dust.
All stopped firing when the target was on fire but all were shocked.
The naked young man stood covered in flames, he didn't seem to care though as if he couldn't feel pain.
"The hell?"
Even stranger or scarier, the young man smiled instead of screaming, he seemed happy to have an excuse to fight back.
"Oh I get it you wanna play first, it's been too long someone wanted to play with me." He thought of the last person who he had fun with. Maybe he can have fun like that quicker than he thought. He smiled as though he were a young child being handed a new toy. "Ok, my turn."
Without warning he vanished, no one reacted as it happened too quickly
And he reappeared in front of the man wearing the black jacket.
His men were still staring at where he was standing, only their leader can see him in front of him.
"What the, how did-"
The young man threw a fist at the leader's face.
To his men's horror it didn't simply hurt the leader.
His head tore off from the force and crashed against a tree. The head was shown with a surprised expression as though the leader didn't register the attack.
The leader's body fell in front of the green haired man some blood fell all over his face.
All his men didn't react they were too afraid to do anything about him.
The young man looked confused and stared down at the gang's boss headless body.
"Oops" He turned to the crew. "I'm sorry I held back, I thought his Aura would keep him safe."
Disturbingly he didn't seem to feel so guilty for the murder he committed. Like his life held no meaning to him. Why would he the captain was only human.
He looked at his fist. "Dad did say I'd be stronger after I get this body, but I didn't think it'd be this much." If he was this strong how would that fight have ended?
The gang all cowered and kneeled.
"W-we surrender! Please don't hurt us."
The young man scratched his hair. "Over already? Oh well guess I'm too old for toys like these now." He said referring to the leader he killed, referring to him as a a discarded plaything.
"Um" One spoke while still bowing. "Would you like some clothes?"
The young man looked down. "Hmm dad and no one else was naked, I guess I should." He looked down at the leader and asked. "Do you guys mind if I take his clothes?"
"O-of course you can!" One of the members responded in fear.
The young man proceeded to take the clothes off the man.
Now he was wearing the open black jacket with the manticore skull in the back with a white shirt and black jeans.
The young man looked down at his clothes, it felt truly alien to him. "Never wore clothes before, hope I don't look silly."
One of the gang members who was obviously terrified spoke. "Y-ya look fine mister um… who are you?"
The young man turned to the criminal.
"Have I not introduced myself, I'm sorry that's so rude of me!" He apologized as though he committed a horrible offense.
"It's um ok."
He felt the back of his neck and realized it was a hood and pulled it over his head hiding his long green hair.
Ever since he came to from his last metamorphosis he couldn't stop thinking of his last fight against the Scourge.
He's sure his father is worried about him, going home would be good, but he wanted to have another round against him. It was all he could think about.
Especially seeing the the giant monster he could become.
Red eyes, the brown hair, a wolf like face, the body of a Beringel with a monkey like tail.
His blood smelt so different, from any Faunus he smelled.
He needed to fight him again.
Once his thoughts were in order, he turned and smiled at the man.
"My name is Eclipse Merlot, it's nice to meet you." His eyes glowed green the same way they did in his previous form.
The Grimm King has taken human form.
Eclipse has returned and now appears human!
What does this mean for Remnant?
And Kron has now gained some new allies, will they truly follow him? Or will they prove to only get in his way?
Find out next time on One's Own Path!
First, before anyone says anything. Kron did not receive a Zenkai here, he just had to sleep. He wasn't brought to near death.
And now we finally see Eclipse and he's a bit different. I am going to miss writing him making those noises to communicate, now he's all grown up. Kind of, he is still less than a year old.
So for Eclipse's human form, think of shorter Sephiroth hair that only reaches a bit past his shoulders, light skin, green hair from his mother's side, green ring eyes and fangs.
His outfit is based on Alex Mercer's from Prototype.
Hope you guys like the design.
Anyway, now most of ABYS is dead, including Bisque which I see most of you justifiably wanted him dead hope you liked that. He was a simp until the end lol. And fun fact, Raven did betray him, she saw his obsession as a liability and it weirded her out.
Now why leave Amaranth alive? You'll see I think you'll like it.
Guess well call this the Silver Bullet Saga, which will take place in Solitas, hopefully it won't be too long like my previous arcs, although most of you seemed ok with them, we'll see.
And now Kron kinda has his own group, hopefully they are more trusting than Roman.(Though that's not a high bar lol)
Hope you guys enjoy that and I will see u in the next chapter.
Review Responces
Naedine-Daki I do appreciate the offer but I cannot afford to pay commissions, thank you though.
Lelouch of Zero: He had a couple back up plans but sadly they couldn't work all because they did not understand the limits of his power.
ThatSaiyaGuy: Always happy to hear from you! Thank you! Glad you liked it, ya, Kron did good with following through with Ghira's request.
That's an interesting thought, but remember Kron did not steal the remote to the pod, that was how Bulma destroyed it. He thought it wasn't worth the beating or murder his mother would do. It was too risky.
I thought of what you said and realized your right, so I updated the chapter a bit to show more ki blasts and make it obvious that it was similar to Kron's power to make them ask questions, thank you for that.
Thank you hope you liked it!
Guest: Kong it will be, still not sold on the idea yet. Not because I don't like it but because I'm not sure I can do that OC well but we'll see it'll be a bit before Kron needs a teacher.
You pretty much succeeded in predicting the chapter well done, think of this 'fight' as a warm up, the next one that can put him in danger will be something a bit more life threatening to him, plenty of people had plenty of time to make countermeasures. BTW this is you Shrine right? Sorry if it isn't, hard to tell when it just says your a guest.
Shrine: I did thank you! Hope you did to.
Reunion: Basically called it, though Kron definitely needed to sleep. His high metabolism kept him awake way longer than it would have any other living thing.
Camilla navas: Roman will dow whatever it takes to get Kron under his thumb even to have him wrapped around Neo's finger.
In a way your right, though his usual defense is more offense, that may have to change at some point.
That's how she did in One's Many Path's in the Salem Timeline.
Bashleyz: Thank you!
Guest: Ok, I'll try to summarize the posts.
I will try to have Team RWBY be reasonably strong. Blake did hold back against Adam who had help. And consider this Yang had seven months of Ki training, three being with Kron so you can say she's a bit ahead, also Ki really suits her the best among Team RWBY. But I will say I think you'll be happy with their strength.
Copying Eclipse? That is a very good idea, I will keep that in mind in the future.
I admit I am no stranger to breaking canon, I have definitely done that with the shrines and what not. Changing the wording wouldn't be such a big deal but I have a counter. The story goes you can't KILL Salem. But if characters reach a certain level before Salem they can say… toss her into deep space, or even better into the sun.
If Salem is in the sun she burns for all eternity, so that's a way to get rid of her. I think it's better for the story for her to be unkillable. And besides Kron has already failed to kill her in an alternate canon to this story. One's Many Paths in the Salem timeline Kron was unable to kill her no matter what he did so I already can't have him able kill her if I want OMP to be canon, whatever can't happen in those timelines can't happen here.
As for this other character. Hmm it can't be Eclipse, he is the result of a corpse mixed with Grimm so he's from Remnant, just not natural. I actually don't know, whatever character in this story is not from Remnant besides Kron. I wracked my brain for it to be plz let me know.
Guest: LOL, that's funny, I wanted him to be like the Mountain from game of thrones, but that works.
Keybladelight: Amaranth did the best he could with what he had but it just didn't work out, all from the lack of knowing how strong Kron really was. That would be a good way to remove Ironwood from his seat of power.
Maybe, they are siding with Kron who knows for how long.
Ki is definitely going to be a game changer.
Yep, and Kron proceeded to ruin his face lol.
Pokedig: Thank you! Fixed!
Typogaming18: Fair with the pacing. As for Kron not being careful, it's how Saiyans are wired, when they are at the top of the world they grow cocky, plus kron is 17, so he's still young and stupid he needs to grow up before he can even start being more careful even then he will be mature.
Surcamstock: Thank you hope it was worth the wait!
He took his trophy but his pod is still missing.
Thank you I hope you had a happy holiday to!
Monster King: Thank you!
Darth Nox22: Glad you like the idea, we'll see how it goes.
Yep, sadly it didn't work out for them but who knows, someone else might find a solution.
Interesting observation, I think you'll enjoy the Vital Festival.
Jay: You sure did guess right.
Maybe your right it would be a good device to increase his stamina, we'll see.
I can promise we are not far before many on Remnant start catching up to Kron.
Trisceythe59: Than you! Lol, we a re way far from Super but I promise when we get to it it will be worth the wait.
Ki isn't far from being common.
Thank you, hope you had happy holidays to!
Whew! I think I'll start PMing my responses because there's a lot of you guys these days lol!
Anyway hope you enjoyed the chapter!
Have An Awesome day! :)
