To the south of East City,
Taikula Town.
Thick smoke rose from the vast Taikula Town, and flames soared into the sky.
Booming explosions could be heard everywhere.
Android 17 and Android 18 had initiated a brutal slaughter mode here.
In just a few minutes, the entire town's population of hundreds of thousands was completely wiped out.
Even the barking dogs were blown to smithereens by energy blasts.
The entire town was fragmented and in ruins, a sight too gruesome to behold.
It was nothing short of a living Hell.
Android 17 raised his hand, golden light swirling around it, and blasted out an Energy Ball.
"Boom!"
A twenty-story building exploded instantly; reinforced concrete flew in all directions, and the crackling sounds were incessant.
Subsequently, a black mushroom cloud rose into the sky as a heatwave swept across the land.
"17, the people here are all dead. Don't waste any more energy. Let's move on to the south; there should still be plenty of people waiting to play games with us."
The young woman spoke coldly, her arms crossed over her chest.
This was Android 18, the T0-tier fan-favorite goddess of the ※_18_⛬ world.
She had smooth, shoulder-length blonde hair, a stunning face, and delicate, fair skin.
She wore a buttonless denim jacket over a horizontal-striped long-sleeved T-shirt, looking very capable.
For her lower half, she wore a denim miniskirt; her long, shapely legs were clad in black stockings and high boots, making her proportions absolutely perfect.
Standing there, she exuded the aura of a noble and cold mature woman.
Glancing at her, Android 17 said:
"No need to rush. What's the fun in killing all the humans at once? Let's take our time, or there won't be anything left to play with later."
Android 17 was a handsome youth whose appearance was very similar to Android 18's.
This was because they were twin siblings before being converted into androids.
Thus, they looked very much alike.
Android 17 also had long hair; his jet-black locks were even slightly longer than Android 18's.
Although the two androids had been active for over a decade, their agelessness meant they looked exactly as they did back then—only about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Android 17 wore an orange scarf around his neck, a black top, loose pants, and a handgun holstered at his waist, dressed like a Western cowboy.
Between the siblings, the sister was an ice queen while the brother was cool and handsome.
Looking only at their appearance, one could never imagine that these two were bloodthirsty ※_17_⛬s.
Because of them, over seventy to eighty percent of the human population on Earth had perished.
Not even natural disasters or zombie apocalypses were this thorough.
Android 18 chuckled and said, "How childish. I think it's best to kill them all in one go."
Hearing this, Android 17 burst into laughter and said, "Haha, childish? I wonder who destroyed an entire city last time just because they lost a video game."
"Hmph!" Android 18 turned her head away.
Then, she also raised a finger.
A golden light flashed from her fingertip, and another building exploded.
"Alright, let's just destroy this city in one go and then head to South City to continue the killing," Android 17 said, flying into the sky.
Meanwhile, an Energy Ball quickly formed in his right palm.
The scorching energy surged, illuminating a vast portion of the sky; he intended to level the city beneath him in one blow.
Seeing this, Android 18 also flew up to avoid getting dust on her clothes from the explosion.
Just then, two figures shot toward them from the distant sky.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived beside Android 17 and Android 18.
Before they could react, both took a heavy kick and plummeted from the sky, crashing into the ground with a resounding boom as the Earth cracked open.
"Who was that? How annoying, they ruined my clothes." Android 18 stepped out of the thick smoke; half of her jacket and T-shirt had been shredded, revealing a large area of dazzling white skin.
"Damn it, this was my favorite outfit, and I don't have many sets left."
She casually tore off the ruined denim jacket and wiped the dust from her face, her anger already sky-high.
Android 17 also flew out from the debris of the explosion, his expression equally frigid.
The culprits, Gohan and Trunks, descended from the sky and stood not far from the androids, looking at them blankly.
Trunks glanced at Android 18 and saw that much of her upper body was exposed; his face instantly flushed red, and he quickly looked away.
Seeing that the newcomers were Gohan and Trunks,
both Android 17 and Android 18 were momentarily stunned.
"Gohan, you're actually still alive? You really have a lot of luck, don't you?" Android 17 said with some surprise.
"How could I die if you're still alive?" Gohan said coldly.
"Hmph, I told you last time to blow him to ashes with an energy blast, but you insisted he was dead. You were wrong this time, weren't you, 17?" Android 18 said irritably, completely unconcerned about how much skin she was showing.
Android 17 chuckled, "Hehe, isn't this perfect? We were just getting bored, and now some fun has delivered itself right to us."
He grew cheerful as he spoke, crossing his arms and looking at Gohan and Trunks with great interest.
As if he were looking at two overconfident clowns.
Isn't this just pure suicide?
"Hahaha, Gohan, I won't let you leave alive this time. I'm going to blow you to powder and make you vanish forever," Android 18 laughed loudly.
"Hmph, prepare to die, Gohan."
Android 18 snorted coldly and stomped hard; the ground couldn't withstand such immense force and cracked open as she lunged forward, staying low to the ground.
The pitifully few rags on her chest fluttered and flapped in the wind.
Fan service galore!
Gohan and Trunks stood there, feeling that these two were talking exceptionally much today.
Talkative villains never come to a good end.
Gohan stared at Android 18 and said, "Trunks, leave 18 to me. You go deal with 17."
"Yes, Brother Gohan." Trunks breathed a sigh of relief and moved toward Android 17, who was looking to enjoy the show.
In a flash, Android 18 was just a few meters in front of Gohan.
She leaped into the air and threw a straight punch right at his face.
Her fist tore through the air with incredible power, making a whistling sound that showcased her formidable strength.
Gohan watched Android 18's incoming fist coldly; in his eyes, her current speed was clearly like a turtle crawling.
"Heh, scared stiff, are you? You're not even dodging?" Android 18 sneered inwardly.
The fist was inches away.
Android 18 was confident that if this straight punch hit home, Gohan would be dead or crippled.
But at that moment,
Gohan slightly tilted his body.
Android 18's fist grazed past him, hitting nothing but air.
"What?"
Android 18 was horrified. How could she have missed?
Before she could recover, a sharp pain shot through her abdomen.
Android 18 felt as if her stomach was about to burst.
It was Gohan's right fist slamming into her lower abdomen.
There was a dull "thud."
Android 18 spat out a mouthful of blood, and her perfect body was sent flying back like a cannonball.
"Hmph, die."
Gohan sneered and closed the distance instantly, pressing his palm onto Android 18's head.
The Terrifying Head-Pat Kill.
Terror filled Android 18's eyes; for the first time, she felt death was so close.
"No!"
"Ah!"
Intense light flashed from Gohan's palm, and then Android 18's head exploded with a bang.
The body that was once full of allure fell into the dust, instantly losing its luster.
Gohan's eyes were cold as he flicked a finger, blowing the headless corpse into beautiful fireworks.
"How is this possible?"
"Am I dreaming?"
Witnessing this tragic scene, Android 17, who was grappling with Trunks, felt his eyes nearly burst as his pupils constricted violently.
"Aaaaah!"
He flew backward to put some distance between them, then swung his hands repeatedly, launching a barrage of roaring Energy Balls.
The surrounding Earth cracked inch by inch, and the landscape was shattered.
Thick smoke and intense fire spread, covering several kilometers.
The ground sank, and the entire Taikula Town ceased to exist.
Gohan flew into the sky, using his sleeves to disperse the thick smoke.
Trunks, at the center of the explosion, was completely unharmed; not a single Energy Ball had hit him, as he had dodged them all.
"Hmph!"
He snorted coldly and suddenly accelerated, appearing behind Android 17 in an instant.
Danger!
Android 17 felt the soaring Killing Intent behind him; his hair stood on end as energy flashed in his hand again, and he struck backward.
To his surprise, Trunks didn't dodge this time and also struck out with his hand.
Their palms met, and an energy storm exploded with them at the center.
Just then, Trunks turned his palm into a claw, grabbed Android 17's arm, and with a powerful swing, hurled him into the sky.
Immediately after, Trunks erupted with brilliant light, and an Energy Ball shot into the sky, chasing after Android 17.
Android 17 was instantly terrified, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering as he let out a piercing scream.
But his scream was quickly drowned out by the sound of the explosion.
His body was engulfed by the Energy Ball, twisting and deforming before being torn apart and then vaporized.
The intense, world-shaking flash blotted out the sun, lasting for a full ten seconds before vanishing.
The haze in the sky was mostly dispersed, and the long-lost sunlight finally shone down.
