Kami's Lookout
Piccolo scowls, looking behind him: he turns around to greet the sudden visitors as they materialize in the air before him and land in a heap on the ground. Goku coughs as Vegeta's body ends up using him as a landing cushion, flopping against him as the golden light vanishes from his hair. The prince flutters his eyes, growling as he yanks his arm out of Goku's grip ("L-let go of me!"). Son Goku sighs, pushing Vegeta off of him before standing up and stretching. He winces; sustained Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken does a number on one's body, even when kept at a minimal boost level.
"H-hey, Piccolo..."
"I got it. Dende!"
"Yes?"
"We have visitors."
The guardian of the Earth emerges, peeping out of the temple before rubbing his eyes. "Oh! It's you! Are you all right?"
"Yeah, I'm... fine." Goku mumbles, prior to pointing towards the limp Vegeta. "He definitely isn't though. You wanna...?"
"i'm fucking fine kakarotto"
"Hey! Don't use words like that in front of Dende!"
Piccolo groans as Dende chuckles and steps forwards: he raises his hands over Vegeta's chest and allows his healing magic to flow through him. Despite his reluctance and pride, Vegeta's muscles relax as he feels the soothing force drag him to rest...
"So Piccolo! You're the smart guy here: you got any sort of plan?"
"No. The most we've got is that we've sent in a few of our toughest to keep Broly busy for a while," he grumbles, looking Goku dead in the eye. "For their sake I hope you can think of a good one fast."
"Um... the Spirit Bomb?"
"I think we've passed the point where the combined energy of every mundane being surpasses our enemies long ago."
"Weee could... ask Beerus to destroy him?"
"Beerus is... not available."
"Oh. ... Uh... UH...! The Mafuba...?"
"Broly would punch your lights out, or just break out once his power starts to grow again."
Dende looks up from his doctoring. "Goku, what about that kaioken technique of yours?"
"Sorry Dende, but I kinda used it already, and taking it much higher would... oooh, I have an idea! Ah... Piccolo?"
"I already hate it, but what?"
"Uuuh... okay so," Goku says, getting up and spreading his arms. "The kaioken increases the user's power, right? And it's not like a Super Saiyan transformation where it has a set maximum multiplier... I can change the output of the technique! Yeah?"
"... I'm intrigued. What about it?"
"So even though I've trained for so long with it, there's only so high I've been able to take it. But that's not because, like, it can't go any higher. It'd just kill me to take it over a hundred or something! So..."
"So?"
Goku puffs out his chest once again, his eyes glinting. "What if I... jumped back in there, got Broly in a Full Nelson, and used Kaioken times... a million or something?"
"ARE YOU INSANE?!"
"Gah!"
"You would blow up like a bomb and destroy the damn planet!"
"Jeez, okay, I won't do that! How about... um "
Dende falls backwards, landing on his butt as Vegeta sits up and screams at them: "fusion, you fools!" Goku and Piccolo stumble as well, startled by the outburst. "Geez Vegeta, you know, you don't have to be so grumpy!"
"hmph!" The prince lays back down, letting Dende get back to work. Goku turns back to Piccolo.
"Uh... fusion?"
"... Yes, great idea, Goku."
"Great...! That might give us enough of a boost to beat him! ... Hey Dende, how much longer?"
"Just a minute or so longer. He's taken a few beatings today, even though they were healed up..."
"Oh, okay. Soooo... who should we bring out, Piccolo?"
"I think it's pretty obvious. We don't have any Potara so you can't use Vegito. And Oom'Bagu isn't here to use his Empathic Slave technique, so we have no chance of summoning Vekujo."
"Huh... I guess it's Gogeta, then. You hear that Vegeta! Fusion time!"
"great"
Round 6: Gohan, Gotenks, Majin Buu, and Videl vs. Super Broly
"WEHEHEHEHEHEH!"
Freezer wheezes, clutching his chest as Broly pounds his chest. The former volcano they were fighting on has been reduced to a smear of rubble across the lavascape. If he hadn't trained further post his newest revival... "Filthy... Monkey..." Broly cocks his head, pursing his lips. He walks forwards.
"Now... Freezer... is that any way to speak to a god...?"
"Y-you can talk?!"
The Legendary Super Saiyan spreads his arms in a manner reminiscent of Freezer himself, power crackling and spewing forth into his aura. He cackles.
"Yes... Emperor. Everything is clear now... you and your... cronies appear to have finally knocked some sense into me. My mental barriers are... purged, by the flow of power through my body. My power... my power is overflowing!"
"... And you remember everything?"
"Yes, Freezer. Yes..." he grumbles, staring deep into his opponent's eyes. Freezer raises an eye-ridge. "Though... I suppose might miss... playing the role of an innocent."
"Hmph! What a pathetic thing for the supposed Legendary Sup-*ACK*!"
"... The slaughter... begins with you, pest. I... I am back."
Freezer grunts. He glances towards the edge of the crater, before chuckling. "Oh, I don't think so!"
"I will bathe in your BLOO–*GAH*!"
Broly stumbles from a sudden kick. The cavalry has arrived.
"Freezer."
"Brat."
"KAKAROTTO!"
More appear; that insufferable fusion from his first resurrection, the supposedly terrifying Majin Buu, and... a woman? And quite a pretty one at that. Who is she...? ... She seems to know Broly, at least. They all do given the way they glare at him. He seems to recognize them as well.
Gohan touches down, and shoots him another glare. Freezer smirks wryly as the entire posse gives him a dirty look. Yes, yes, he's to blame for this mess. ... Oh, yes, and they were never on good terms to begin with; fine by him.
"Back off, Freezer. We can... handle this."
"Ohoho! I was growing a bit tired: allow me to take my reprieve," the mad emperor fires off as he retreats. God, no one must know how much he needed to take this time to recover. Maybe behind that rock...
"Ah... ahaha! More bugs for me to squash: the whole gang's here. What's next, is my father going to pop up from behind that rock?"
"L-laugh all you want, Broly!" Gotenks boasts, sweat streaming down his brow. He hasn't even transformed yet... "W-we've all gotten way stronger since you came to Earth last time!"
"What... a coincidence. So have I!"
Gotenks's response is cut off by a fist ("Gotenks!"). Videl and Gohan rush towards the unprepared body tumbling up the crater, leaving Majin Buu alone up in front of the monster.
...
"You... are the terrifying Majin Buu...?"
"Me Buu! You... you hurt Mr. Satan's daughter!" he screeches. The majin jabs a finger at himself; "Me beat you up!"
Broly demurs, watching the others out of the corner of his eye. "Perhaps... if we had met before, you may have been a demon to behold. But..." he raises a hand, and releases a sliver of energy. Buu's head is punched out of existence: the surprised majin stands stock still. "... My power grows eternally." And then Buu's head suddenly reappears out of his stump of a 'neck'.
"OW!"
"You can regenerate to such a degree...?" he mutters, as his smile widens. He gets into a wide forwards stance, the saiyan's smile growing dangerously. "Then this will be a struggle truly worthy to remember, a finalé before I massacre you all! Come! Give me the fight of your life! I… will make your death slow, painful, and glorious!"
Buu frowns before suddenly bursting forwards – unfortunately, to be immediately caught by a quick but powerful blast. His chest suddenly turns concave as he's shot backwards, his eyes bugging out as Broly dashes after his prey. Buu contorts, barely managing to block the incoming blow and throwing one of his own. It seems... Mr. Satan is actually a relatively competent teacher!
Videl and Gohan hoist Gotenks onto their shoulders, watching with Freezer as the two demons' fists clash. Buu actually manages to get the upper hand, and holds him up by the neck...! Broly's arms hang limp as Buu proceeds to pummel him, growing appendages out of every free piece of his – oh, he's been knocked off by a single headbutt.
And a colossal uppercut blows the majin to pieces, pink flesh blowing upwards and outwards while a geyser of green energy erupts from Broly's fist.
"Should we jump in...?"
"Videl, no. Just..."
Gotenks coughs, fluttering his eyelids. He looks up at the two adults over him.
"Geez... that really smarts..."
"You're okay!"
He pushes their arms off of him, grumbling as he gets up. The fusion winces, holding his chest as ow fuck there goes a rib. Videl pulls him into a hug, hurting him further as he weakly whimpers. Gohan sighs wearily.
"Omygodyou'reokayIwassoworriedI–"
"can't... breathe...!"
"Guys... guys! We should start powering up."
"I hope your dad...s have a plan ready to go..."
Kami's Lookout
"Nobody's stronger than me, now!"
Dende and Piccolo stare, jaws hanging open at the sorry result of the failed fusion. The dance was elegant... and apparently too refined for Vegeta, whose reluctance interdicted the maneuver at the last moment. Veku, the fat fartball of a fusion looks at the two namekians, his gaze souring.
"What?! What, you gotta problem with me?!"
"As a matter of fact, yes," Piccolo snarls. A bewildered Dende looks between the two.
"Um... are you Veku? King Kai told me about you once..."
"Veku?! No, no, I'm... Gogeta..."
Veku's eyes drift downwards, downwards, and oh he can't see his toes. The fused saiyan's eyes bug out, before he clasps the sides of his head. "Oh crap! Crap crap crap!"
The nameks sigh.
"Try again in thirty minutes."
Tsurumaitsuburi Lavascape
Freezer glances at the other three spectators, watching his back as Kakarotto's brat glares back. Despite being on the same side... it is increasingly obvious that there is no love between him the earthlings. "Mph." He gets back to focusing, trying to maintain his Golden form and regain his strength as the struggle... well, despite how retarded it appears, he can see why his father feared the majin.
"Eraser Cannon!"
The large green energy blast rockets towards the fat pink creature, when it suddenly tears itself apart! A gaping hole yawns open in its chest, allowing the orb to pass through its position before it suddenly dashes towards the Super Saiyan.
"TAKE THIS!"
Buu does not 'take this'; the punch whiffs into the afterimage of a vanish attack. The daemon remanifests behind Broly and kicks him in the head, causing him to snort in annoyance: Buu's eyes widen as Broly swivels around and BAM! Gohan and company watch in horror as Buu is comboed into oblivion.
Gigantic Press!
Low kick!
Gigantic Claw!
BIG FUCKING PUNCH!
Eraser Blow!
Gigantic Strike!
Lariat Express!
Gigantic Meteo–
"TURN INTO CANDY!"
"What the–?!"
The magical pink beam hits Broly, energy flying everywhere as his face contorts with absolute confusion. Buu's eyes close for one last time with a devilish smile as his squishy body falls apart from exhaustion, flowing into the rock under him... but his final strike definitely counted for now.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID THAT PINK BASTARD DO TO ME?!"
The Legendary Super Saiyan froths and screams on the inside, thrashing violently as he tries to understand his new form. All that the others saw, however, was the world's most ominous floating jawbreaker candy: broccoli flavored.
Gohan and Videl stare, nonplussed enough to allow their gathering power to dissipate for a split second; Gotenks even almost loses his form.
"What in god's name...?" can be heard from behind a nearby rock.
The decidedly disgusting sweet vibrates, the shockwaves emanating from it almost appearing to be a roar. It would seem... that this candy, much like Vegito before it, has enough ki to surpass the barrier of inanimacy.
It's still a threat.
"Gotenks! Videl! Get ready!"
A chorus of agreement bursts out before the two lunge at the candy, roaring. Gotenks's hair explodes into a mane of gold, a Super Saiyan 3, while Gohan's aura ripples with the unleashed power of his divine Mystic form.
... In addition to Videl, the almost totally mundane human, who is there too. She throws a flurry of jabs and hooks, lethally positioned jabs and kicks raining down and around the jawbreaker. Gotenks vanishes into thin air, appearing right opposite of her as he whales into the area ("Bam bam bam!").
Videl throws a Dynamite Kick only for the candy to hit her between the eyes. Her head pitches back like she was just shot there, barely keeping herself upright. Gotenks howls before thrusting his hands towards the Broly.
"FULL POWER ENERGY WAVE!"
Aaaand the fucking magic candy jukes around, whizzing like a furious hypersonic yellowjacket as the fighter's release of energy blares through the air. Broly dodges everything Gotenks proceeds to throw at him; A blur of motion, blows placed exactly where they needed to be, but immediately before impact he shifts and reappear somewhere else. It's hopeless–!
"MIRACLE FULL FORCE!"
"Gohan!"
The subsaiyan manages to tag the sugary orb with a massive uppercut, slamming it up and away. It careens up into the sky, energy crackling around it as it plows into the stratosphere. Gohan... shakes his now-red hand, choking back curses as a bruise starts to form before blasting up after it. Gotenks and Videl look after him, it now being his turn to prop her up...
"Huh..."
"... Hey Videeel... you uh... think you've made our point?"
"Y-yeah, we should leave..."
Gotenks scratches his head. "I hope Buu can make his way back... we really didn't do much, huh?"
"... Gotenks. NO."
"Come on! You saw that - I barely did anything! I know I can do more against that big ol' jerk!"
"Okay, fine, whatever. I'll... be waiting for you two," Videl mutters prior to zipping away. She glances back - that Gotenks is really determined, apparently, to rush after his big half-brother.
...
Gohan extends his arms, screaming as he rockets after the flying candy. A shout of "Masenko!" rings out before the sugary orb is scorched and sent flying again. Cracks spread throughout the shell of the candy... How to take it out before it reemerges, or maybe accidentally letting him out himself...? A candy shouldn't be able to transform back into a saiyan by sheer force of will, but candy shouldn't be able to fly around with a power level higher than the gods either: if Vegito has done it once, it might be done again... His mind starts racing with combo strings, moves which might be able to build up his Sparking Meter to–!
"Galactic Donut!"
"G-gotenks?!"
The juking candy slams into the suddenly manifested ring of energy, ripping through it. Looking down, Gohan can see his half-brother whizzing upwards, a look of intense concentration on his face.
"Oh-oh no! GOTENKS! GET OUT OF HERE!"
"No! I can do this!"
Gohan... facepalms, before squaring up and raising his energy levels. A fight with Gotenks would be not the best thing to happen right now. Best just prepare... Gotenks blasts past him, raising his arms.
"GALACTIC DONUTS!"
Broly blitzes about, frantically dodging the rings of ki; his velocity lowers, lowers, until–!
"GOTCHA!"
Gotenks rushes in and slams the candy with an overhead hammer blow, rocketing it back into the ground. The candy lies among the steaming rocks, dazed from the impact until it realizes that the heat is causing it to melt!
"No! NO! THE LEGENDARY SUPER SAIYAN WILL NOT BE DEFEATED IN SUCH A–!"
"SUPER GALACTIC DONUT!"
*bawup!*
And Broly is thus trapped within a rotating orb of rapidly spinning rings. The candy lets out a vibrational roar as it slams its way against the walls of its new yellow enclosure, unable to get up the momentum needed to get out as its containment slowly shrinks around it. Gotenks smirks, flash stepping towards his new ball.
"Super Brocco-Broccoli Volleyball!"
*PWISH!*
*BWANG!*
*SLAP!*
Gotenks zips through the air slamming, the slightly-more-visible jawbreaker around. Videl and Gohan... anxiously observe, unsure if the fusion can finish off the candy-saiyan. The final blow occurs, the candy known as Broly being spiked into the fucking ground and forming a crater. He writhes in fury as magma spews onto him.
"H-hold him there, Gotenks!" Videl squawks as Gohan touches down next to her, pumping a shot of his energy into her. She coughs as they stare into the fiery hole, looking back and forth between it and Gotenks's sweating visage.
Broly mentally shrieks in rage and pain as he feels himself melting. Being magically transformed into candy allows his spirit to exert itself over his new body, but still...! If he had just been killed he wouldn't be feeling this overwhelming pain! MELTING SUGAR! HIM! ... How g.
His spirit roars, throwing its invisible head backwards in fury... before suddenly calming. The atmosphere thickens: Gohan squints as the energy stops fluctuating, feeling Broly's smirk... and he notices the almost silent cracking and the burgeoning of faded ki.
"GET DOWN!"
Gohan and Videl get down. Gotenks does not, and is thus witness to the explosion of legendary power! ... or not. He barely catches a glimpse of something fracturing before melting shards of candy rip through the air and into his eyes. He screams before the shockwave also washes him with lava, alighting his hair with resplendent red flame.
"Hmph! How pathetic, screaming from just some candy!" the Legendary Super Saiyan cackles at the writhing form of the fusion. Gotenks flares his energy, blasting the flame and melted goop off him as he wipes his eyes. Broly picks at his own skin, wincing as he touches what looks a nasty burn. He chuckles, snake-eying Gotenks.
"I must congratulate you... small Kakarotto? With the help of that stolid blob, you... are the first person on this planet to wound me while I am transformed." Gotenks staggers back as the massive wall of pectoral muscles suddenly fills his vision, before a hand clamps around his throat.
"Gotenks!"
Gohan lays Videl on a rock ("ow.") before looking around frantically, staring at and through a certain boulder–!
...
It seems that Freezer has gotten the hell out of dodge. The ordinarily prim scholar curses.
"Out of respect for you, little Kakarotto... your death will be quick."
"Wai–!"
*RIIII–pop!*
And the fusion comes undone in Broly's hands. He blinks, staring at the two small children in black-haired base form.
"What...?"
He has no time to ponder this, however, for a resounding smack rings out whence Gohan kicks him in the head.
