Slaanesh's physical form was hit as if by a supernova, exploding in an instant into a shower of bloody fragments. Each piece of flesh screamed as it melted.
But Axis did not stop. He continued his savage assault.
Slaanesh's form repeatedly disintegrated and reassembled, but each time the process was slower and more difficult than the last.
Axis's fists were more than just physical blows. His ki furiously corroded the very essence of the Chaos God.
The destructive nature of the Legendary Super Saiyan's power prevented Slaanesh from regenerating with its usual ease.
"Ah... what... wondrous pain..." For the first time, a tremor entered Slaanesh's voice, yet the chaos god continued to laugh in ecstasy.
Axis ignored the god's ravings.
He seized Slaanesh's head and twisted it violently.
With a sickening crack, the Chaos God's neck snapped. Axis held the severed head aloft, but in the next second, it dissolved into a swarm of giggling beautiful miniature women. They coiled around Axis's arm, attempting to corrode his flesh and corrupt his soul.
His golden-green aura flared, and the vipers instantly evaporated. The power of the Warp was suppressed by his own, especially the Ki strengthened to the absolute zenith of a Super Saiyan.
He snapped his head up, his gaze piercing the depths of the Warp. There, Slaanesh's true form was coalescing again, but this time, it was different.
It was no longer an alluring, androgynous figure. Instead, it was a pure, writhing torrent of desire.
Countless faces swam within it, wailing, laughing, fornicating, and slaughtering one another.
Slaanesh's voice echoed from all directions. "You've made me take this seriously, my dear. Now, let us truly become one!"
At that moment, Slaanesh yearned to seize Axis's body, to claim this physical vessel that was practically invincible in the material universe.
The entire Warp began to writhe.
Countless tentacles, claws, and fangs extended from the void, trying to drag Axis into an eternal abyss of damnation. But his ki formed a solid bulwark, shielding its master from the corrupting influence of Chaos.
Even Axis's soul began to assert its power.
A divine, angelic halo materialized and shone with a brilliant golden light, protecting him from spiritual assault.
The Chaos God's essence could not invade his body. Slaanesh's plan to possess Axis and obtain the strongest physical form in the material universe had ended before it even truly began.
"You want to possess my body, is that right? Come and try if you have the guts!" Axis said with a cold sneer.
The mockery finally ceased in Slaanesh's true form, that roiling torrent of desire. Its billion faces turned to Axis in unison, and every one of them wore an expression of unprecedented gravity.
"You... are no ordinary mortal. I see in you the potential for godhood." Slaanesh's voice was no longer flippant but carried a tone that was almost respectful.
Axis's terrifying power had deeply moved the Chaos God.
Were they not in the Warp, Slaanesh knew it would have no way to deal with him in the material universe. The Chaos Gods were immensely powerful and their ways were strange, but they possessed no singular bodies of their own.
Their domains within the Warp were their bodies.
"Axis... Axis," a fragmented voice called out, trying to reach him.
However, Axis was entirely focused on crushing the depraved being before him and did not hear the faint call.
He wasted no more words.
His body burned with power as the savagery of the Legendary Super Saiyan stacked upon the limits of Super Saiyan 3, causing his strength to climb ever higher. His fists shone like miniature stars, unleashing terrifying force that detonated throughout Slaanesh's realm. Each blow made the very fabric of the Warp groan in pleasure.
With a final, explosive punch, Axis drove his fist into the torrent of desire. His golden-green aura spread like a virus, corroding the chaotic energy. The twisted faces dissolved with piercing screams.
Slaanesh's domain began to collapse. Countless palaces of pleasure turned to ash, and daemons were torn apart in the raging storm of energy.
Axis laughed maniacally. He brought his hands together and began to charge a powerful attack.
"KAME… HAME…HA!"
A pillar of golden-green light erupted, piercing through the Warp itself. Everything in its path was annihilated. It tore a gaping hole in Slaanesh's domain, and the very essence of Chaos trembled from the force of the blow.
Axis panted, the strain of maintaining the Super Saiyan 3 Legendary Super Saiyan form causing his muscles to tremble slightly.
He could not hold this state for long, not without completely becoming a mindless beast.
But his eyes remained as ferocious as a beast's. He scanned his surroundings and saw that Slaanesh's realm was collapsing, but something deeper, something far more fundamental, was awakening.
"You… Sigh! Why can't we do it the easy way?."
A purple light, more profound than anything before, surged from the void. Slaanesh's "true form" finally manifested.
It was no longer a playful god, but a pure conceptual entity, the embodiment of all the universe's ultimate desires, pleasures, depravities, love, beauty, art, madness, pain, and torture.
Axis felt an immense pressure, the same pressure he had once felt when facing the Emperor at one hundred percent of his power, when the Master of Mankind had unleashed a mere fraction of his might as the Dark King.
"Let us end this farce," Slaanesh's voice boomed, now devoid of any playfulness, cold and majestic.
Axis grinned. "My thoughts exactly!"
A bright sphere of light suddenly appeared in his palm. It rapidly expanded before Axis threw it into the non-sky of the Warp.
Over his decades of existence, Axis had developed several theoretical techniques, such as creating an artificial moon.
"So you merely lit a lamp?" Slaanesh's deified form asked with some confusion.
"Didn't you call me a savage monkey? Then, let me show you what a savage monkey can do," Axis said, turning his head to look at the artificial moon he had created.
This was a Saiyan's last resort, a power that even Axis was not completely certain he could control.
THUMP. THUMP. THUMP. THUMP.
A terrifying heartbeat echoed through the Warp. Axis's heart began to pound like a colossal war drum.
"ROOOOAR!"
A bellow that shattered the structure of the Warp erupted from him. Axis's body began to expand violently. Two fangs protruded from his mouth, and his face contorted, morphing into that of a great ape. Muscle fibers multiplied at an explosive rate, and his bones elongated with thunderous cracks.
Golden-green fur grew wildly, each strand crackling with golden-green lightning. His head tilted back as his jaw jutted forward, and stark white fangs tore through his lips.
"What… what is this! You are not a human?" For the first time, Slaanesh's conceptual form felt a sense of shock.
Axis's body swelled past thirty meters in height. His tail whipped around like a massive pillar. When the transformation finally completed, a stellar beast clad in golden-green fur stood defiantly amidst the chaos.
The golden great ape's pupils were blood-red, and its ferocious aura surged to infinity.
The Legendary Super Saiyan Golden Great Ape.
This creature completely overturned Slaanesh's understanding of the material universe. Every hair on its body burned with a destructive aura. Its pupils were crimson, and the torrent of energy it exhaled could vaporize entire legions of daemons.
Most terrifying of all, it still retained its conscious will.
The cold fury of the Legendary Super Saiyan had fused perfectly with the primal savagery of the Great Ape. Axis discovered that he had not lost his sanity and had not become a mindless monster of destruction. The Emperor's modifications had been thorough. Controlling the power of the Legendary Super Saiyan had been a significant challenge, but controlling the power of the Great Ape was an even greater one.
Coupled with his earlier venting, and the Magnificat within his brain working overtime, he had a level of control over the transformation comparable to that of the Saiyan royal family.
Unfortunately, even with control over his Golden Great Ape form, he still could not achieve the level of Super Saiyan 4.
Axis was missing some critical catalyst to touch that power. For now, however, the strength of the Golden Great Ape would be more than enough.
"Now…" the Golden Great Ape's voice thundered, cracking Slaanesh's entire domain, "let's see who the real monster is."
For the first time, Slaanesh's instincts screamed in alarm.
The Chaos God summoned all of its power, coalescing it into a Spear of Desire that spanned the void, its tip shimmering with the memories of a billion fallen souls.
But the Golden Great Ape's reaction was faster. He simply swiped a claw.
Five gashes, each light-years across, tore through the Warp.
Slaanesh's attack was pulverized before it could even fully form. The ape's other hand had already closed around Slaanesh's conceptual body, like a child squeezing a large, glowing purple jellyfish.
"Release... me..." the Chaos God's voice came out in fractured pieces.
The Golden Great Ape's response was to smash it against its knee.
With an immense crunch, the sound of Chaos essence shattering caused the other three Chaos Gods to finally commit their full attention toward the conflict.
But the Golden Great Ape had already opened its massive jaws, a supergiant-like sphere of golden-green energy gathering in its throat. A terrifying blast of destruction erupted from its mouth.
"ROOOOAR!"
The Golden Great Ape's roar became a tangible shockwave that obliterated a region of the Warp. Slaanesh's domain of desire fractured like brittle glass.
The twisted palaces of pleasure and depraved gardens of delight all crumbled under the force of that single shout.
The gargantuan ape Axis had become did not stop. It raised one of its enormous feet and brought it crashing down.
The very space of Slaanesh's domain buckled under the impact, and countless Slaanesh daemons were instantly crushed into mere energy.
Their screams were vaporized by the rampaging energy before they could even be heard. The ape's hand swept across the landscape, bisecting entire daemonic legions and sending gore flying everywhere.
Far in the distance, Slaanesh's true form reassembled, its countless faces staring in utter shock at the golden ape that was rampaging through Its domain.
It seemed it had invited a true monster into their home.
