Deep within the mysterious forest, the atmosphere was tense and heavy.
At last, Black Vegito slowly stepped into Bulla and Goten's view. His face was gloomy, as if covered by dark storm clouds, and every step he took carried an overwhelming sense of pressure. It was a face they knew all too well, yet now it radiated nothing but chilling indifference.
Goten frowned, an ominous feeling rising in his heart. He turned to Bulla anxiously.
"Bulla... is it really him?"
Bulla's expression was just as grim. She clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles cracked, never taking her eyes off the approaching enemy.
"Yeah, Goten. Just like we feared. But that guy is nothing more than a fake."
As Black Vegito drew closer, the mocking smile on his face grew wider. His eyes gleamed with contempt as he let out a cold laugh.
"Haha... So? Surprised to see me? Let me make this simple. From this moment on, I'm officially declaring that the two of you have been eliminated."
Neither Bulla nor Goten backed down. After exchanging a quick glance, Bulla lowered her voice.
"Goten, don't act recklessly. He's incredibly strong; we can't beat him head-on. I do have one way to deal with him."
Her expression was unusually serious. Goten looked at her earnestly.
"What is it, Bulla?"
Bulla answered without hesitation. "Fusion."
The moment the word left her mouth, silence filled the air. Goten's whole body stiffened as a blush slowly spread across his face.
"Fusion...? You mean... me and you, Bulla?"
He stood there frozen, staring blankly at her with wide eyes. The idea was simply too unbelievable, making him feel awkward beyond words. After all, they were a boy and a girl. No one knew what kind of person would result from a Fusion Dance between them.
Still, one thing was certain: if the fusion succeeded, the resulting warrior would possess unbelievable power. That thought briefly tempted Goten before reality pulled him back.
Bulla frowned slightly and looked him straight in the eyes. "I know it sounds crazy. But with the situation we're in, we don't have another choice. We have to try." She paused before adding, "That guy is a monster. You know that as well as I do."
Goten looked back at Black Vegito. The image of the real Vegito flashed through his mind, and this fake gave off the exact same suffocating pressure. After a brief hesitation, Goten clenched his teeth and nodded firmly.
"I'm in, Bulla."
Right then,
BOOM!!
A deafening explosion shook the entire forest. A Ki blast shot in from the distance, exploding right between them and blasting both of them off their feet.
Pointing straight at them, Black Vegito sneered, "What are you two whispering about? Trying to decide what pose you'll strike when I eliminate you?"
By now, Black Vegito had completely lost his patience with the pair. A rosy-pink aura flared around him once again. He admired his own body before bursting into laughter.
"Hahahaha!! This body... it's simply perfect!"
With that, he unleashed the power within him, transforming into Super Saiyan Rosé once more. In an instant, every tree throughout the Forest Module was dyed a brilliant shade of pink, turning the entire forest into a surreal paradise. Black Vegito looked around in satisfaction, thoroughly pleased with the sight.
Meanwhile, Bulla and Goten climbed back to their feet. The two exchanged another determined look, and Bulla shouted, "Goten! You know the Fusion Dance, right?"
Goten nodded. He had seen Gohan demonstrate it before.
The two of them immediately got into position, preparing to perform the dance. But at that very moment, a voice suddenly echoed inside Black Vegito's mind.
[Stop them from fusing. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.]
Black Vegito paused for a moment before scoffing arrogantly. "Tch. You're worrying over nothing. I'm already far stronger than you can imagine."
The next instant, however, he suddenly clutched his head in agony as another commanding voice rang out in his mind.
[Idiot. Hurry up. Stop wasting time!]
As soon as those words were spoken, Black Vegito immediately regained his composure. "Understood... Lord Zamasu."
In an instant, Black Vegito shot toward Bulla and Goten at incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, his hands were already reaching for their throats.
Sensing the danger, Goten and Bulla leaned back to avoid the grab and counterattacked together, firing two Ki blasts at the same time. But Black Vegito was unbelievably powerful; he charged straight through both attacks without slowing down.
Black Vegito instantly changed tactics. A massive energy scythe appeared in his hand, and he slashed out a crescent blade of energy.
BOOM!
Goten was blasted away. Just as Black Vegito turned around, Bulla descended from above and shouted, "Final Flash!!"
Black Vegito smiled wickedly. His energy scythe swung upward, colliding head-on with the Final Flash.
BZZZT…!
Violent arcs of electricity crackled where the two attacks met. Black Vegito smirked. "So this is all you've got? You're both far too weak."
"Kamehameha!!"
A brilliant blue beam suddenly entered Black Vegito's field of vision. Yet he didn't panic in the slightest. With his free left hand, he calmly formed another energy scythe.
BAM!
Caught between the two attacks, Black Vegito stood his ground alone against two Super Saiyan Boundary Breakthrough warriors.
"Are you two trying to tickle me?" His face was full of disdain.
But in the very next second... a sharp, piercing pain spread through his entire body. Black Vegito froze in confusion.
What's... going on?!
Drip... drip...
He looked down. Blood was dripping from his mouth.
Only then did he realize he had been far too optimistic. His body wasn't in peak condition. It looked powerful, but in reality, it was surprisingly fragile. After all, this fusion had been created from a weakened Goku Black and a weakened Black Vegeta.
Just then, Bulla and Goten's attacks surged with even greater power. The two of them had already noticed something was wrong with Black Vegito, and without hesitation, they poured even more energy into their blasts.
BOOM!!
Then, something happened that shocked everyone. At the edge of the Forest Module, the faint purple glow covering the barrier began to spread... then, all at once, the purple light intensified.
