"Shut that little bots trap, or I'll mount him on the tip of the ship." She flicked her hair out of her face, their stroll through the metal jungle towards the city, it had been only twenty two minutes before they reached the first outskirts of buildings from the city. It was a brisk pace, for those dragon balls coming towards the planet were getting closer. Since twenty plus minutes went by, she also got to sense a power among the many coming towards them if she concentrated, which is why that Giru Trunks and Ursula were keeping as a pet was constantly alerting them of danger… Zangya also felt that the little cretin was right, there was someone on their way here who would prove the little machines alert true.
She was also feeling another power coming towards them, though from another direction, more further out but she had to concentrate more carefully to even get a read on this other power, time she didn't have.
"We're entering the city, keep an eye out for trouble. I and Giru will track this dragon ball. It is strange… the reading is flickering at this location here, it keeps jumping from here to somewhere out in space… getting to the location over in that direction, we should be able to find out why this dragon ball is lagging the scouters." Sixteen said slowly, eyes tracking the flickering of the device, Zangya could indeed see the device screen lagging.
"~Tch~ Where are all the weaklings, when I arrived on the planet earth decades ago, I met a local upon leaving my attack ball… Here, we've only stumbled on metal buildings and nothing interesting. Kek, the planet is more advanced I would say… technologically superior-" their path into what appeared to be a main street halted when, Multiple red lasers blinked around them, looked to be an alert system went off all around them, they paused and watched.
"Keep your power levels to a minimum now..." Zangya said quietly enough for them to hear.
(Cooler-POV)
'Another two dragon balls in sight, he was fortunate that there was two together… fortunate or there was someone else hunting for them. He was also irate that yet none of those who'd survived that failed mission for a dragon ball hadn't reported in as of yet. Heads would yet roll, though bloodshed would come after his re-obtains immortality. Cooler's turned when one of his men alerted him.
"My Lord, We're to arrive in fifty minutes time."
"Excellent, proceed commander. I want to be on the planet and soon. How soon can you begin to scan the planet for fighters? With the dragon balls on it, I want to make certain that a certain cretin isn't on the planet…" he though of Kron, for running into him would be a worse case scenario, he wasn't ready for that fight yet… one hundred percent ready, in any case for he did have confidence in his new form.
"Yes my lord, we can confirm that there is a huge power heading towards the planet, though they will arrive in a days time." Hmm, Cooler didn't ask for some random fool heading towards his doom unknowingly, he replied, making his intent for the question known.
"I meant the planet you fool… Are you meaning to tell me that there isn't anyone on the planet worth fighting, worth even using but a fraction of my power… So, they might be just collectors or some such. Hmph, fair enough then. An easy collection added to my own." Cooler's tail impacted the metal flooring, his anticipation for taking yet another two dragon balls, adding to his two he has already, he'd finally have four. Cooler smirked.
(????-POV)
"Any new developments?" General Rilldo strode forwards, taking a seat and gazing over the systems, one of the overseers replied.
"Their ship landed on the outskirts of the city, five individuals have tripped the early warning monitors within one of the city limit areas, their presence is also accompanied by one of our own, T2006 has led them here it would seem General." he chuckled, liking that one of their own led them fools to M-2. Potential Machine mutants in the making, he could 'see' them from where he sat, thanks to M-2 itself, which was 'him'…
"That would make T2006 a harder worker than most, excellent. Keep an eye on them, I will send the Sigma squad after them in time." it was then when the system displaying the visual footage of the five intruders being led by T2006 was interrupted by Dr. Myuu himself, whom was now displayed on the hologram in front of him.
"General Rilldo, Luud is still in it's energy gathering phase. Dolltaki has confirmed to me that some interesting individuals have entered into his court, demanding the dragon ball for services rendered. These Hera… are a blight upon my plans, Dolltaki assures me however that they will not be a threat as he boasts of securing one of the black star dragon balls."
"Yes Dr. Myuu, we've also received such visitors… a large contingent… they have been secured for your perusal. They are also Hera; they claimed the planet at first as they picked up no life signs… I made sure to make their primitive scanning tools… true to their word. Eleven beings have been encased via my 'Metal Breath' Dr." Dr. Myuu sneered, smirking as he replied, a grin sent his way.
"Excellent work General. They will go a long way in my most promising experiment… Luud however might have a chance to shine albeit, I loath taking the word of Dolltaki, his arrogance has always irked me. I'll be in touch, those bodies I plan on experimenting on, I want immediately. Be sure to also send any others you manage to capture…"
"I will be sure to also add these five whom have landed on the planet to the list of Hera ambassadors whom so rudely set foot on M-2, believing it to be their right to occupy. These five seem non-threatening, especially… In fact Dr. Myuu, I have reason to believe that three of them are Saiyan's. I can kill them Dr.-"
"-Saiyan's! Add them as high priority targets, their DNA shall fuel the ultimate future of my ambition, total galactic dominion and the mass conversion of any sentient life into machine mutants. I want them alive General, so make sure you do capture them alive, for you have a tendency to… ruin the specimens." Rilldo gushed, smirking.
"Why thank you Dr. Myuu, for the compliment!" they both chuckled together, for their plans were secure.
(Kron-POV)
"Alright lads, how long until we reach your planet, this Luud…" We didn't use our ship, it was capsulized while we rode along with the Para brothers, their ship a tight fit for all of us. Pyrrha and I were eating on a capsule-stored table, Yamcha sleeping nearby. The leading brother, Bon? Replied a bit too fearfully, that is as he caught sight of my wife before he glanced at me.
"A-Ah will be there in twenty m-minutes sir. Not any l-later!!" now with food in my mouth, Pyrrha added with a smile.
"Your helping us, so don't be scared friends. You lead us to our stolen dragon ball and I won't have to show you your ins-" I coughed, more for to get her attention than for coughing sake. She really surprised me sometimes, with her more brutal attitude.
"-Ah, anyway. Don't waste time talking to us boys. Get us there, will let you live to tell the tale." Pyrrha side-glanced me, she knew how to get what she wanted from these three, though she didn't mean it. I think.
They were quite mellow when they weren't trying to dance or sing us to death, if that was their technique.
Arriving, we inched closer to the bridge of the small ship, looking out over the planet, a desolate shithole that reminded me of anthills. The ship flew overhead, many of ships exactly like the one we flew in could be seen parked up, there were also a few larger ships… Hera ones, I'd remember those kind of ships anywhere, those were distinctly red… like their hair. There were three of them ships parked up outside one of the largest spires, the Para brothers were landing next to.
"Alright lads, you go inside and report you've got the dragon ball. Or You can stay out here while we go in and take back the one stolen by you. Your choice gentlemen." I heard Yamcha speak cockily, a smug grin as he assessed the three brothers whom whispered among themselves. They all replied in sync.
"We will stay here!" in unison, they were about to head back up the ramp into their ship when it was exploded from nearby, a split second but I and the others, minus the brothers sensed the attack coming. Pyrrha and I grabbed on and two of the brothers, now hovering in the air up above overlooking the explosion, Yamcha engaged in fierce and fast-paced combat with a Hera warrior, as capable as Yamcha was, this warrior looked to be much stronger. Another two warriors, than four more flickered up in the air with us, all sorts of leers and sneers adorned their green-blue colored faces, a few of them lecherously 'undressing' Pyrrha with their gazes.
"The woman is perfect breeding stock boys, kill the rest of them. Will take them out and collect our prize… that dragon ball." one of the leading Hera, a muscle-bound soldier with a goatee chuckled after he spoke, the men with him all sneering or leering in our direction. Another, as I could sense, two of the most powerful of these Hera were with us, the strongest I could sense deep in the bowels of the spire we needed to enter. Yamcha having the dragon radar, his fight was keeping him busy to not go searching for it.
"Pyrrha, you reckon you could take these-" I quickly expunged a large amount of Ki out of my mouth, the beam piercing through one warrior outright while arching to hit the side of another one, exploding on contact. Eleven warriors became nine battle-ready and one half dead warrior. We had to move then, flickering up above, the Para brothers in our grips, only Pyrrha had use of one hand not holding one of the brothers.
"-nine honey… I'm going to get a drop on the three fighting-" more of them left the spire and a few previously… must have been sleeping if their Ki not being sensed was any indication. Now there were almost over one hundred of them, though eighty of them headed straight into the spire.
"I and Yamcha could handle them together, or you can help me. Use a clone or two and will deal with the rabble. I hope the sight of blood won't dimmish my beauty… I plan on bloodletting this lot, I don't like their leering." She snarled, already removing Miló in it's Javelin form, she didn't wait for a response for the Hera were already upon us, instead biffing her weapon, piercing through the head of one of the Hera.
Down to nineteen plus three fighting Yamcha, Pyrrha already recovered her beloved weapon, deflecting more blows as these some of the Hera also wielded melee weapons of all kinds, swords, axes- whatever. I went to make two clones.
"'Multi-Form'" The two clones knew what to do, immediate in their response, one heading to get Yamcha out of his fight and the other to take on the Fighters of Hera here. I went ahead and landed, catching the scouter thrown my way thanks to my clone collecting it from Yamcha. With it in hand I headed into the spire, transforming into my 'Super Saiyan Two' form for starters, get the Ki circulating through me.
The deeper I went, five minutes down for I didn't walk, instead blowing my through any door and blockade left in tow of the majority of the Hera warriors, sensing their location along with a whole host of weaklings all littered in close proximity to one another. Blasting through a large decorated door, I came inside a massive great hall complete with a stage, a massive statue to some unknown god and those awaiting me.
"...Here's Kron." I deadpanned with a growl at the nearest Hera, flickering towards him via afterimage and sticking his head through the granite wall, my hand laid upon his back while releasing a massive blast upon him. Killing that one, the other guard went ahead and attacked though a swift chop to his neck, first through his spear tip pole, the blow enhanced by Ki easily sliced through his neck, my other handheld out to blast the rest of him with barely any energy used. The bodies were annihilated by 'barely' any energy from me, though comparing that to these weaklings was like a drop in the ocean… and I was the ocean.
Nah, I was a fucking tidal wave, high tide has nothing on me.
My foot found the back of the Hera's head, sending him off towards a wall, where a few others were able to halt his impact with their own bodies… not by their design as I sent him straight for them. Immediately, I was assaulted by multiple Hera, their strength, that'd compared to uh, Cell… second form or higher, nothing I couldn't handle though there were over one hundred in here, among the cultists all cowering below.
Taking to kick multiple of them, into one another or into the walls, I remained leading the fight, sensing that the strongest among them hadn't yet made his own move. That head priest was also powerful, from what I could feel of him… The fight, I half fought them, half continued to observe the potential enemies and spotted the gigantic statue and more importantly, I felt the great power wafting off it like a bad smell, only attuned to Ki would you sense such energy which is what I have.
Intercepted then, my concentration ended on being in multiple places when, the strongest Hera managed to intercept me, even in ' Legendary Super Saiyan Two'. the fight halted, hundreds of Hera all around us, some recovering from the fight getting back to their feet, the priest now had a large metallic lion next to him, the thing came up from the ground on a elevator, it looked ferocious.
"Hello Saiyan, by Saiyan." the Hera warrior flickered, immediately entering into my personal space, attacking with swift melee blows, his fists finding their targets. The last hit was intercepted by me though I then took a harsh knee brunt to my right side rib, stiffening me as I jolted in place. I retaliated by afterimaging to the side of his head and laying multiple blows into his smug face, more of the Hera thugs came upon my back and sides, laying me with cheap shots-
"-Haaaaaaaaaaaaagh!" I shouted, Ki exploding around me, my transformation eclipsing in 'Legendary Super Saiyan Four', the Ki released enveloped around me in a spherical blast, blasting everyone of the Hera into either walls, one another or into Cultists on the ground floor. The only one who managed to stay where he was… barely, was the lead Hera, who now looked uncertain about the fight.
"Go Leon! Kill that sacrificial lamb. Commander Kroenen, allow my pet to-" two twin beams of green Ki shot out of the now named Kroenen, the twin beams shot towards the Cardinal and the metal machine, detonating on impact.
I felt impacting me, the very technique Zangya uses, 'Psycho Thread' though from one hundred Hera at once, which had an impact upon me, the tendrils taking hold, dissipating from me while many new tendrils took the dissipating ones place. My Ki engulfed around me, raging in green, yellow and the occasional purple, now with pink silk-like Ki threads trying to keep me still-
-Kroenen attacked me, his Hera subordinates continued to try and impede me, only managing to slow me down while my corrosive Ki slower to counteract against the hundreds of 'Psycho Threads' continuously layering upon me. Didn't stop me enough to keep me idle, I and this Kroenen renewed the fight, I kicked him upwards, through the ceiling, a large hole collapsed upon his impact while, he retaliated with a large pink colored beam, blasting downwards to impact my readied hands. Holding on, still been inflicted by a heavy does of 'Psycho Thread', I heard an unfamiliar voice call out below.
"To be pushed to this, but Mutchy isn't to be trifled with. Hera! Your number is impressive! And your power! It would serve Luud well!" a yellow guy shouted, long elongated head, and whip-like hands, he came out of the impact crater where previous the giant lion machine and the priest fella. I could barely see him nearby to my right, the beam impacting upon me been held back also blinded me somewhat, that Kroenen shouted hoarsely while pumping more Ki into his attack. That yellow machine afterimaged in between us now, I felt behind me when a beam of yellow energy connected to me, while the beam I was holding back began to shrink fast while the yellow guy seemed to absorb the attack. He cackled, turning his gaze upon Kroenen while I shrunk down size.
It wasn't just me who was shrunk down, heaps of others shrunk into doll-sized bodies, the Hera apart from Kroenen and the cultists were all targeted by the yellow-colored beam, all coming from the same source… That statue.
'Come and get me' I mentally projected towards one of my clones, telepathically replied to. I couldn't move an inch while I fell towards the floor, with every other Hera warrior, the Cultist dolls already on the floor.
'...Right.' my clone replied, he appeared in time to pick me up as all the others were being sucked into the statue, I had a thought… Perhaps it's like Majin Buu in there, another opponent I could beat from the inside.
