Well, I'll just hope that others will notice this one's up and join later.

Maaaaan. I just finished Kengan Ashura and what a ride it was.
The only thing I dislike about it is the fact that Ohma didn't get to put a baby in Karla.
He died as he lived, a virgin

You ready yourself for the coming storm and start contemplating how to handle it.
On one hand, you're eager to see just how does that additional x5 multiplier feels like. On the other, you don't want it anywhere near you.
So the only real course of action is trying to keep him away with ranged attacks.

"Heh... Guess "that" should do the trick!"
Raising your fist, you point it at Lee and get this party started!
"FLASH FIST CRUSH!"
The invisible line of energy is fired out of your knuckles and makes its way towards your foe who, just like you expected, dodges it with ease.
Not that he can see it mind you, he's so on-edge that when you shouted he instinctually began evading.
"INFINITY!"

Changing trajectories the thing curves around and begins tracking the guy whose movements appear more like flickers than anything else.
His form completely melts away the second he takes a step and only by focusing on his overwhelming energy can you trace his movements.
But that's more than enough for you.

Jumping around the arena, avoiding the invisible wave of death through prediction alone he rolls, backflips and flies out of the way.
It's clear that he has no trouble dodging it, hell this may not even be his maximum speed. So then why is he content being so defensive?
You see his lips curl into a cocky little smile when it hits you. He really was going slow!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHankFNxrWI

With a quick eruption his ki flares up and he begins moving so fast he's passively leaving after images around as he's changing his directions.
The arena now littered with clones leaves you worried as you keep loosing track of his energy signature as he's bouncing around the place. This is bad!
Quickly you decide to cover yourself by shutting down all possible avenues of attack.
Raising a ball of ki in your hand, you shoot it out and it quickly fractures into dozens of smaller projectiles which shower the area constantly.
Aiming them around your body, you guard yourself with the projectiles while trying to get adjusted to his new speed.

As you're constantly adjusting the Flash Fist Crush to follow Lee, you spot him right in front of you, giving you a goofy smile.
He wants to confuse you so your own attack hits you? Fat chance! Spatial awareness of not just yourself, your opponent but even your attack is your forté!
Preparing to shift the attack around so it curves around so it hits Lee from the side instead of the back, you start performing the necessary actions... which is when he completely disappears.

You freeze up.
There was nothing. You lost his energy, no motion, no sound. He vanished off your radar without a trace.
It then hit you... literally.

A sharp pain penetrates your side, looking down you see Lee, his fist deeply planted in your liver.
He somehow slipped through all your senses and defenses while landing such a powerful blow.
How... INTERESTING.

Not missing a beat, you grab his leg and practically dig your fingers in his calves.
His goofy smile is met by your savage grin as you stare him down. Raising your hand, you clash fists with him several times.
Each sequence you manage to perfectly cancel each others attack out perfectly, resulting in only superficial damage on both sides...
That is, until your guided attack finally arrives.

Staring down Lee feels his nerves firing off a great many signals as his guts churn with pain.
The viscera within his guts trembles as the Flash Fist Crush shakes him to the core and passes through him.
As he looses his composure, you tighten your hold on his leg and after swinging him around, you throw him far away.
He manages to get back on his feet rather quickly and taps his abdomen a few times.
"Looks like a draw!"

"Yeah! Now we'll see which one lasts longer!
My reserves... or your body!"

>That trick was nice! Almost like a time-skip. But it couldn't be... could it?
>More area of attack! He can't dodge if you hit everything!
>It's your turn now! Time-Skip!
>Other?

>>3977293
Oh well. Cant be takeing away other players toys all the time. I might develop bad rep that way. (as If downgrading once didn't do that allready.)

>>3977297
Permanent success can get a bit boring.
If nothing else, I get your point and understand your decision

You alter your stance and raise your hands, completely exposing everything the neck down.
Most of the arena starts ridiculing you for your "stupid pose" with the exception of one...

Of all people, Bruce is recognizing that something's off and raises his guard.
Either he knows somehow, or his instincts are hard at work. Not good, no matter how you look at it.
No matter.

You prepare yourself for the time-skip and begin vibrating your muscles in preparation when Lee springs to action.
Charging into you head first, he leaves a trail of mirages behind him as he readies one of his full-body kicks.
Except the same thing happens last time and he disappears again.

Activating time-skip immediately, you turn around and preemptively throw a punch.
The moment your skip ends, you find your knuckles digging in the guys cheeks as you take a step in and push him down into the dirt.
Upon making contact with the ground he extends a hand and fires off a blast of energy, which ends up propelling him out of danger and almost knocking you over.
A good chunk of the skin on his arm gets frayed as it drags against the concrete, leaving a rather ugly smear of red on the ground.
He gets up, tearing his shirt to scraps and covering his arm.

"How did you know?"
He asks curiously.

"I didn't.
Don't get me wrong, I don't get how you're doing it because that's not what I'm focusing on.
I just reacted based on what I would've done."

"Then you have excellent sense for battle!"
Lee adjusts his guard and lowers his hands, abandoning much of his defense for increased offense.

You scoff at this.
"What? Not gonna try that again?
It might work now!"

"No..."
He wipes his nose and takes off again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ed8NYvCLAw

Lee begins his much more direct assault, aiming to rush you down with a series of blindingly fast blows.
You quickly start backing away both to gain some distance and to lessen the impact of the blows and as such, begin zapping around the arena while the stadium rings from your thunderous blows.
This type of attack you're much better adjusted to and fare equally as well... for a while.

But once it becomes obvious to Lee that his tactic is ineffective he starts doing something... bizarre.
Despite having read his movements, his speed and his technique to such an extent that you can see his movements played out before they even happen, he still gets hits in!
You jerk your head around but your cheek still receives a cut, despite the fact that you were sure you dodged it.
And many other such attacks get past you. Nothing serious mind you, but it's still threatening.

It's after about the tenth little "scrape" that you start figuring it out.
He's slightly adjusting the boost of his Kaio-ken, slightly increasing or decreasing its output. Not by much, but just enough to throw off your timing.
Well... if he wants to play like that!

You can practically hear the others in the VIP room going off as they see you suddenly standing your ground.
Sparks begin flying off where your fists connect and no more attacks get past you. In fact, quite quickly you start turning things around with only one simple trick.
"TIME-LAG!"

You uppercut Lee with full force, shaking his entire skull with the impact and with that things get out of control.
The two of you are no longer equally matched, instead Lee is being overwhelmed by innumerable, invisible strikes that he just can't get adjusted to.
He manages to grit his teeth and weather your blows just long enough to throw both his arms back and strike you with them simultaneously.
The blow is quite hefty but compared to the damage you just inflicted, it's nothing.

Now both of you are panting and staring down the other.
*pant*
"You're not the only one who can mess with his opponents!"

*pant*
"I see that...
And I hate to admit it but I'm starting to feel winded.
Haha! I did not expect to get pushed this far! Fighting you was really worth the wait!"

"Enough talk old man! Show me what you got!"

"With pleasure!"
He then raises both of his hands in the air and shouts to the crowd.
"PEOPLE WATCHING US FIGHT! RAISE YOUR HANDS AND SHARE YOUR STRENGTH WITH ME!"

Looks like he's trying to pull something freaky again...
>Don't let him!
>Wait and see
>Other?

>>3977333
>Wait and see

Oh boy, dis gonna be good!

Also humanity working together, also good

>>3977333

>>3977333
>Wait and see

Oh boy, Bruce Lee launching a Spirit Bomb is something I gotta see. Wonder how it'd effect us? I seem to recall it only hurting evil people, but I guess we do have Buu inside of us?

>>3977340
Isnt spirit bombs positive energy really effective against Bu? Or was that only because U7 Kid Bu was just pure evil after he literally spat out the good in him with Fat Bu?

>>3977342
Not 100% sure but I think that was just some bullshit they added onto the dub

Like when they made goku heroic or spics turned 18×krillin into/ss/

>>3977342
>>3977347
>>3977351
Strange... I also recall the Spirit Bomb hurting "People with Impure hearts"
Which is why it bounced off Gohan and why Kid Buu could hold it so long.
One is pure good, other is pure evil

>>3977342
I doubt it ineffective again those who are good. I would say it's extra effective against those who are evil.

I'm on my way home now by the way
Will update soon

"Interesting..."
You muse to yourself and cross your arms, waiting to see what happens.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmU9e67EfmI

At first it looks like nothing.
But then you start spotting little specks of light floating up into the air... from what appears to be the grass.
Slowly as people realize what he wants them to do, they begin raising their hands one by one, causing similar looking little wisp like things to appear out of their palms.

"A technique that draws out the energy of others..."

"No. A technique that lets others GIVE energy!"
Lee looks up with an amused look on his face.
"I still remember the beginning of my career. So many people laughed. They called me a clown, a monkey dancing for the entertainment of others.
Now look at it! The TV has become a formidable power indeed... capable of broadcasting our match live... to the entire world!"
He says with a smug smile.

"Oh no..."

The match is indeed broadcast worldwide and it shows. Soon enough the small light way up in the sky begins to swell.
It grows and enlargenes until it eclipses the Sun... and then it keeps increasing until its sheer size becomes intimidating.
Staring at the thing you let him make you can't help but shake in both fear and excitement.
Grinning from ear to ear you begin shouting.

"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
DO IT! DO IT! DO IIIIIIIT!"

"Soon!
Give me a moment! I'm just about done with the people.
Now all that's left is a bit more of the earths other life forms! The trees, the animals..."
Suddenly the massive thing in the air pulses.
"READY! The collective force of billions!
Hmmmm... a bit too big. That won't fit!"
He moves his hands around and begins concentrating the massive thing until it shrinks down just enough so it could fit through the roof of the arena.
"HERE! TRY IT!
SPIRIT BOMB!"

Lee lowers his hands and the "Bomb" as he calls it begins to descend, were it not for its own light you're sure it'd eclipse the sun.
This one's gonna hurt...

>Gotta take it!
>Grab it and throw it back!
>Destroy it!
>Other?

>>3977440
Can we open a portal big enough to redirect it and drop it on Lee's face?

>>3977441
That big of a hole and "transporting" that much mass?
Not without great effort

>>3977448
>Mass
but it's energy

>>3977440
>Grab it and throw it back!

>>3977450
B-But anon... energy has mass...

>>3977456
"No."

>>3977440
>Destroy it!

More like reduce the impact. Constant wave/stream/beam of energy might "soften" it enought to move from knock out to hurts like a bitch.

>>3977440
>>Awaken and Portal it right back at Lee!

>>3977460
Do it, why not.

>>3977460
Even partial transport might that ultimatly fails might reduce its effect. Or detonate it early as part of it is chipped away when the portal fails.

>>3977514
There was also "grab it and throw it back" so I kinda roped the two together

>>3977513
Thank god you are late.

You watch the thing as it descends and feel something stir within you.
A feeling starts to dominate you as veins begin to appear on your dark eyes.
Buu seems to be restless and you kinda agree with him. You don't want that thing to hit you.
And you might need the big guys help with it.

Giving him a free ticket outside, you feel your teeth and even your clothes changing as the Majin overtakes you.
Suddenly you feel energized as if you were just awakened from a nap and stare the big fuck-off SUN that's about to smack you in the face.
"I'm gonna FFFFFUCK THAT!"

You can feel all eyes on you as reality slowly dawns on them and they realize what happened to you. But it does not matter.
Raising both your hand, you start picking up all the magical mojo you got in this spiffin' new body and begin putting it to work.
Digging your fingers into the folds of space, you begin pulling it apart to form a portal several feet ahead of you.
The blackish ring expands until its edge reaches the walls of the arena.
"PERFECT!"
The Spirit Bomb slowly drifts toward you, it too barely fitting in the confines of the arena.
Looks like it'll be a tight fit but it'll work.

You don't bother masking your intentions from Lee. He'll figure out what your plan is sooner or later and even if he does, it won't change a thing.
Just like how you waited for him to finish, he too is ready to accept his fate should you turn his attack around.
Emphasis on should.

As the ball begins to pass on through you start feeling ballsy before the voice of Lee pierces the roaring of the gigantic sphere of energy.
"Oh no you don't! EXPAND!"
Uh-oh.

Whether through Buus own recklessness or yours, you overlooked the fact that he just shrunk it down, so it would make sense he can make it increase in size.
You just... didn't think he'd do it. But he did.

The bomb begins to unravel, its energies becoming less densely packed and as it grows in size it hits the inner ring of your portal... and keeps growing.
Like a balloon with a rubber band around it, the thing grows until it starts scraping the energy barrier defending the audience, and making the Spirit Warriors grit their teeth.
In the end, it got stuck and it's not looking like it'll move anytime soon... that is, until Lee starts meddling again.

The thing struggles against its binds, not because its user wants it to move in any particular direction, mind you.
You see the bomb contract in an effort to change its shape, its mass congregating around the border of your portal.
From a sphere, it goes into an oval like shape, pushing back against the ring that binds it until you hear a-

*CRRRRRRACK*
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

It detonated in close proximity to you.
Thanks to Lees meddling the vast majority of the explosion happened on your side as the shape of the thing was altered.
Not only was the blast strong enough to engulf you and throw you against the wall of the arena, but it totally dismantled all the protective barriers you've put up previously, leaving the audience exposed.

With one swipe of your arm, you clear the rubble off of your body and stand up to face your foe.
Just about the entirety of your right side got singed in the explosion, leaving you much to repair with Buus power while leaving Lee just about intact.
Well... intact in the context of the fight. He still took quite a lot of punishment, though now it's questionable which one of you is better off.
But for now, he's content.

"Not bad. You almost had it!
But if you want to use my own technique against me, you'll have to work for it!
Speaking of which-"
He raises his hand which is tingling with a familiar energy, one that manages to put some fear in you.
"I thought I'd keep a bit of it just in case.
And I'm ready to use it! So what do you say?"

>I give up...

>>3977696
I mean... if you like playing against permanent DC21.

>>3977705
Well if we have seen anything it's that he will do it.

Standing up and raising your left fist because the right one doesn't work so good no more, you speak up.
"Bring. It! ON!"

"That's what I like to hear!"
Lee clenches his hand and the energy held within it disperses throughout his entire body as he sighs with relief.
"Much better! Now... Kaio-ken! Times... THIRTY!"
His entire body begins to swell up from the energy until his shirt is ripped to shreds.
Though now you detect more than just a hint of pain in his expression.
"Come! Show me your determination!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYAPgPH9hsI

Not feeling like giving him a chance to strike first, you make your way up to him and engage him in a battle of fisticuffs.
Between his additional 50% increase in power combined with that leftover spirit energy and your Majin mode the two of you seem to be pretty equally matched.
Like before your current fight is more of an arms race of trying to outperform the other in prediction than an actual brawl, but that's just fine.
The one thing that's different now is the fact that he doesn't seem to do that vanishing act anymore, you wonder why.

But one thing starts becoming clear. Even with your superior ability in time and space manipulation, using only one hand you are at a great disadvantage. You'll need to compensate for that somehow...
During your exchange you lock one of Lees arms under your armpit and make your way in. He sees the rising knee coming and blocks it with his own leg.
So that leaves you with a headbutt, which he should counter with his hand and then-

He gently touches your shoulder with his free arm.
"Zero Inch Punch..."

It's so gentle, so innocent looking. Yet the moment he touches your right shoulder it practically crumbles into dust.
With his ki he managed to improve the one inch punch so all he needs is any kind of physical contact to strike them with full force.
That's nasty... however-
"You shouldn't have aimed at the broken arm!"

You pull back and headbutt him at full force, breaking his nose and sending his eyes rolling back into his scroll for a moment.

>>3977773
>"You shouldn't have aimed at the broken arm!"

THE STANCE, GIVE HIM THE STANCE The Improved Stance...

That was probably meant as a deterrent. But there is no use crying over spilt milk, much like about an already broken arm.
If he destroyed your other arm? Then you may have considered retreating. Now all that did is piss you off.
Rushing after him you prepare your remaining hand with a murderous glint in your eyes.

Seeing this Lee takes a deep breath and steels himself.
His pectoral muscles bulge as he raises his hands and begins throwing attacks.
"AAAATAAAAAAAAAAA-ATATATATATATATATATATTATATA-"

Doing your best you endure his rush to the best of your ability.
But given how he's putting everything behind it and your half-assed state, it's not looking good.
With one of his attacks swatting your arm out of the way Lee exposes you to his finishing blow.
Raising his fist, he pours every ounce of energy he has, from the Kaio-ken to the Spirit Bomb, into it with the clear intent of ramming it all into you.
"WATAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-"
You grin at him. Because he made one. Fatal. Mistake.

Using your telekinesis, you force your right arm up to intercept the blow.
Lees eyes go wide in surprise as he sees your mangled mess of an arm raised into a guard but chooses to pay no attention to it.
He must think that even if you were at full, you couldn't handle this blow. Which may have been a case a few minutes ago.
But being beaten into a corner and having half of your body mangled? That's your element! It's where you THRIVE!
And it bore fruit to a new technique... or rather-

"NULL FIST!"
You shout as Lees hand gets in touching distance.
"EARTHQUAKE GUARD!"

The instant his hand makes contact with you open palm his entire arm erupts in a massive gash running up to his shoulder.
All the energy he gathered up ended up working against him as your vibrating waves disrupted his Ki. Knowing full well how it feels when such force is unleashed within your own body, you guess he lost function of that entire arm.
Good. That leaves you open for a follow up!

"AND!
EARTHQUAKE STRIKE!"

Spinning around you strike with the back of your fist, not at Lee, but at the air.
You pull back your hand and make it stop. Air is just as much of a medium as water or flesh, you just have to adjust it.
Striking the air effectively, you send out waves through it which, with a delay, reach your intended target and with explosive force shoot him into the arenas wall.

Having returned the favor, you relax your posture and patiently wait for the announcer the crawl out of the woodworks.
"I-Is it over? Are scary things still happening?
No? Oh thank you Jesus!
*ahem*
Erm... what... happened? Is he alive?"

"He is but you better start counting.
'Cause I'm not chancing it by pulling him out of there."

"G-Got it!"
He goes ahead and counts to ten before checking out whether he's dead or not.
After confirming you didn't just kill him twice, the announcer speaks up.
"AND WE HAVE A WINNER LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! Bruce Lee the martial arts god is out!
The SLAYER advances to the finals!"

>>3977822
Our hardest fight to date, and we absolutely earned that win.

>Develop a variant of our technique that doesn't just block a super-enhanced blow, but reflects It onto the user

I wanted the Stance, but nevermind this Is better. This Is a game-changing development.

How long until meme edits show up on the internet? At what part of the fight does PIANO kick In

Aaaaaand that's the end for today.

How about we compile everything we've gained by participating In this tournament.

>We witnessed several different forms of and learned quite a bit about Ki Weapons
>We got firsthand experience with and information about Ultra-Instinct
>We learned how to manifest our viking bloodlust and inner demons as a pair of demon horns
>Learned how deep our inner demons go (Still need to work out all of that)
>Deepened our connection with Buu, attained Majin Mode, learned how to use It
>Improved our general attunement with magic (We're still lacking a bit In that department, we need some formal training from Vados to round It out)
>Whirlwind Fist? (Not sure If we knew this before, but I can't remember It.)
>Learned Sam's new capabilities
>Taught Dominika and a good bit of the world about Ki and where to learn It
>Taught Kamin and Oren Important lessons about martial-arts

Then from the Bruce Lee fight alone-

>Got our first taste of someone countering time-skip Goku style, learned to out-counter the counter
>Got a taste of Kaio-ken firsthand (Need to learn It)
>Got a taste of the spirit bomb firsthand
>Got stress-tested, Improved ourselves as a martial artist
>Pulled the Earthquake Guard technique out of our ass to clutch the win
>Learned Bruce's air-palm punch as the Earthquake Strike
>Potential to copy Bruce's one-inch/zero inch moves later

All In all today has been VERY productive. It might be an event lasting several threads but for In-game time we're improving ourselves scary fast and I'm damn pleased. Now I just hope the Sam fight turns out to be a good showing on both sides.

so guys i had a thought majin mode+ kaioken= pls no nerf

But what about fire? We need to come up with a fire based technique. Null Fist: Firestorm Strike?

What would that even look like? Hmm... perhaps 'Igniting' them with our ki, Gogeta style like how he enveloped Broly with his ki, then seemed to detonate It at the end? Something to look Into, maybe.

>>3979776
Imma be real with you chief.
I haven't thought of that yet. Two out of three I had planned, one of them I came up with on the fly.
But so far I got nothing for fire

>>3979841
I mean... it's good but... don't you think it's a bit overkill?
I may not agree with most of what Plague of Gripes says but he got the right idea

"Imagine if a Stand user or a psychic from YuYu Hakusho entered Dragon Ball.
The entire UNIVERSE would be fucked"

>>3979860
Yeah but it's a great finishing move for people we actually want to kill.

Also, he says that, but with the exception of a very select few stands, Ultimate Kars rapes Stand Users.
He rapes even the top tier stands if he figures out what's going on and spontaneously develops his own stand which would be the best stand.

>>3979879
Not necessarily. Only most prominent ones, because those are usually just punch ghosts.
Any Stand that fights in an unconventional way however...
Can you imagine Kars beating Hey Ya? Or Superfly? Or something super broken like Tusk?

>>3979896
The problem is we've seen what happens with Ultimate Kars vs Stands in Jorge Joestar.
He can copy/steal Stands.
Ultimate Made in Heaven Reqium is a thing he has.

So yeah.
Yeah I do see him winning.

>>3979907
I don't think Jorge is canon... then again I like having 47 Kars on Mars...

Obligatory for the eventual Christmas episode/omake

If we somehow develop a Fire technique, we are then obligated to make a spiritually-based Heart one too, so we may combine our powers to summon Captain Planet.

>>3979914
Fun fact in U7 Mars is inhabited by squid like ailiens. Duno if U6 ones are alive or they have just pulled DC and moved underground or somthing.

>>3980539
Arent they the same squids that the galactic king is?

Hey!
Just poppin in to tell you I'm aiming to run tomorrow
But if anything changes Ill announce it

Im home finally so there wont be any interruptions and I'm aiming to wrap up at least the fighting part of the tournament.
I hope to see you there, as this is likely to be the last thread before the holiday and I dont intend to write during it

>>3980887
I say just similar looking like how humans and sayans look really similar especialy in U6.

After your victory has been announced, you go over to the pile of rubble and with a simple push of your hand, you send out a wave which blows the debris clear off of Lee until the team of paramedics arrive onto the scene.
They quickly put him on a stretcher before he signals them to wait for a second. He motions for you to come closer with his bruised hand.
Upon closer examination you realize that he must be suffering from severe internal damage, including but not limited to fractured or outright shattered bones, torn muscles and quite possibly internal hemorrhaging.
It's a small wonder he's even awake right now but you DID notice Sigurd being much hardier than a regular human.
Perhaps being dead has its benefits.

"So... be honest with me!"
He smiles through his wounds, highlighting his injuries with his red teeth.
"How much were you holding back?"

"I'll tell you if you first tell me how far you could've gone!
What number are we talking about?"

"Eh... around... 45-ish.
But at that point it starts being really painful and dangerous.
Even my body starts to change. It's... much more of a transformation at that point.
And how about you?"

"Tell you what... Get yourself patched up and take a seat.
I'll do more than just tell you about it!"

"Alright! Don't leave me hanging now!"

You give him a little fistbump and then tap the medics so they take Lee away.
And once they are out of the picture the announcer nervously shuffles close to you.
"So erm... Do you need a minute? We can stall for time you know. At least long enough for you to erm... get some treatment?"
He motions at your arm, which is still badly injured.

"No need."

"B-But-
You're clearly injured!"

"No I'm not. Look, it's already healed."
You raise your arm and despite being able to move it around without much trouble, it's still purple and swollen.

"NO! It's clearly not!"

"Just move on...
Announce the next match. I'm ready!"

Walking up the stage you wait for things to proceed until Sam is announced.
"And NOW! The black horse of the entire tournament!
Despite being unknown in the world of martial arts up until now, he reached all the way to the FINALS!
He is powerful, he is mean and he doesn't bow to anyone! EVERYONE! Please welcome to the stage: SAMUEL!"

Sam comes out wand with arms spread out drinks in the adoration of the people watching him.
He makes his way to the stage and comes face to face with you. Suddenly the roaring crowd gets drowned out as you focus entirely on him.
"So-"
Sam speaks up, his voice clear as crystal.
"Here we are. The finals."

"Yes."
You talk back with a cold voice.
"The only question is... what happens now?"

"I wonder... After making it this far our deal has been completed-"

"I'm going to stop you right there.
If you're as much as thinking about surrendering you'll kiss that money goodbye."

"You... You can't do that!
We had a deal you asshole!"
He speaks with fake outrage, though you detect a hint of truth behind it.

"I thought you're a lawyer...
No contract was signed. We only had a verbal agreement.
So I can alter it as much as I please and that means no easy way out for you! And if you surrender I'll personally give the money to Domi."

Sam then breaks the act and chuckles.
"Well... I suppose this has been about more than just the money for a while now.
I've put too much work into this... Too much thought put into how to finally beat you! Now I want to kick your ass!"

"Suuuure..."

You take your stance and Sam does the same.
Both of you are ready to throw down... Now the only question remaining is how to handle him.

>Toy with him for a while. Hold back and lull him into a false sense of security
>No bullshit. Just fight him straight up and beat him fair and square
>He's crossed the line... Time to teach him a lesson. And a thorough one at that
>Other?

>>3982722
>No bullshit. Just fight him straight up and beat him fair and square

>>3982722
>No bullshit. Just fight him straight up and beat him fair and square


>crossed the line, what are we his father?

Just tell him he was kinda a dick before and that domis probably gonna jump his ass when they get home, these are our friends not our children

>>3982722
>No bullshit. Just fight him straight up and beat him fair and square

>>3982722
>>No bullshit. Just fight him straight up and beat him fair and square

I think he's already had a healthy enough dose of reality that we don't need to play up the beating to humble him. Not more than this already will anyhow.

A'ight.
No excessive bullshit then.

>>3982901
Well... you almost didn't crit
So you weren't wrong

There's no reason to get excessive... But that means you also won't go easy on him.
As the match is announced to begin, you start encircling around Sam, looking for any openings you may find.
In complete contrast he remains in place and starts taunting you.

"You know... I've been watching you fight.
Observing, thinking... about that freaky time ability of yours.
And I think I've figured out a way to beat you! So I hope you're ready! 'Cuz I'm about to-"

Sam blinks once mid sentence and as he's about to continue he realizes too late that you've moved.
A chill runs down his spine as you speak up behind him.
"About to what?"

He turns around with a swipe but misses you by a mile as you back away.
"ALREADY?! You got no chill man!"

"You think that was a skip?"

"W-Wuh?"

Stepping forward and extending your fist, you begin attacking immediately
In rapid succession you begin raining blows on him and don't stop. As Sam is pushed back you reply to him to further split his attention.
"I'm not as good as Bruce Lee but I still figured it out! All I did is move when you blinked! Do you get that?!
That's the difference between our speed!"

Being battered into submission Sam is blown back by a great punch and begins whining immediately.
"Owowowow! Fffffuck...
My arms hurt! Shit... I didn't think I'd need to get serious so soon!"
Extending his hand Sam conjures the same sword he used against Jeanne.
"Okay Eric! Playtime's over!
That money's as good as mine!"

"If you want it... you'll have to take it!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrD8cLVHgWc

Twirling his sword around for a moment he pulls the sword behind his head and points it at you before lunging forward with it.
With a simple back handed swat, you knock the blade away and making it go past your head.
Kicking him in the stomach, you knock him back.

"Foolishness...
Is rushing in all you can do?
I expected more frankly."

Recovering quick he moves back in and starts flailing around wildly with his blade.
But as enthusiastic he is, his lack of skill with his weapon of choice is rather obvious.
As he keeps swinging, you side-step him effortlessly and when he has the audacity to do a downward swing, you not only dodge him but also step on his sword.
Reaching for the thing on your back you decide to humor him for a moment with a mock duel but his eyes bulging out are a clear indicator that he just shat his pants.
Abandoning his sword he gets the fuck out of dodge as you impale the thing into the ground. A great hole is punctured into the stone arena where you left the Z-sword.
As you pick up his weapon and closely examine it.

"Sharp.
And pulsating...
If I break this will you die?"

"It'd be extremely painful..."

"You're a big guy."

"For you!"

Looking at Sam you see him nervously sweating... but oddly enough you don't hear his heart rate picking up.
Come to think of it, you don't hear his pulse AT ALL. That thing in your hand must really be his heart.
Well at least you can give him credits for his conviction. Tossing the weapon back, you speak up.
"I hope you can do more than some half baked swordsmanship!"

Snatching his sword out of the air, he dispels it and responds.
"I'll show you half baked!"

Pocketing his hands Sam prepares to cast some sort of spell.
Looks like the fun is about to begin.

>Go in and keep beating him into submission
>If he wants to have a magic duel... you can oblige

If Sam's gonna be swinging his heart around as a sword, we better make damn sure he gets training for it later. And teaching to expect esoteric bullshit.

Well hello

>>3983065
Obviously not because of the former.
But beside the... Warp... it also messes with your cognitive functions and makes focusing nigh impossible

You feel the air tingle around you and a faint buzzing sound hits your ears.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxBRNLmkXGI

Dodging the lightning bolt mere moments before it strikes, you start using an old trick in the hopes of confusing Sam with it.
Lifting yourself off the ground just slightly you slide around the arena and forcibly alter your movement whenever you feel a spell incoming.
To give credit where it's due, Sam does not employ any attack fired directly from his person, instead they are spontaneously conjured on the spot.
But their strength and speed are still severely lacking.

Your irregular movements are enough to throw him off guard long enough to get close enough. Once within range, you move behind him to which he reacts violently.
Sensing the immediate danger he turns around and thrusts his palm out, from which a jet of flame shoots out much faster than any of his previous spells.
It seems that he still has some surprises left. He probably kept this one in reserve for when he really needed it.
But it's no matter.

Raising a multi-layer barrier with pockets of air between them, you shield yourself from the changing temperature before extinguishing the flames with a telekinetic swipe that creates a gust of wind strong enough to blow them out.
Another forward thrust blows him back with enough force to push him into the concrete wall of the arena.
He struggles to pull himself free but before he could get any mileage, you send out a tendril of pure psychic energy and wrap it around his neck.
With a quick pull you make him grind against and dig a trench into the wall. Only thanks to his own barrier does he manage to get out mostly unscathed of your bind.

Panting he falls to his knees for a moment before realizing that he needs to retaliate quick or else he'll be overwhelmed.
Taking his hands out of his pockets he starts displaying his intentions by repeatedly pulling on the air, always going from left to right.
His plan becomes readily apparent when the air around you starts swirling around violently.

A whirlwind forms around you which eventually grows into a fully blown tornado, the effect of which is only limited by Sam itself forcibly pushing all of the winds power inward.
Firmly locking yourself in place with a rigid force field pulled over your skin and bound to the ground, you start feeling out both the mystical energies Sam is unleashing as well as the strength of the winds themselves.
Once you're done with the analysis and sure that your plan won't affect the citizens you go to work.

The force field around your body starts expanding and changes to be more spherical.
Though you start out gradually, the second you get near the wind wall you send out the repulse with explosive force and blow the whole thing apart.
With its structure compromised Sams tornado falls apart at the seams. And good thing too, because if you were wrong and the spell would've kept going... well best not to think about it.

Sam meanwhile is dumbfounded by this clear defilement of the forces of nature.
"Why won't you go DOWN?!
KAMEHAMEHA!"

Without warning or any preparation he haphazardly cupped his hands together after calling out the name of the attack, he throws it out surprisingly quick but weaker than if he did it normally. Clearly he's banking on it catching you off guard.
Too bad.

Swiping your hand around, you bend the space around your body until it curves back around and with it Sams attack.
Judging by his surprised expression he completely forgot you can do that, a clear sign of his inexperience as a fighter.
The attack blows up in his face but thanks to its weak power it barely deals any damage to him. Could it be? Was he... actually counting on that?
Nah, no way.

When the smoke clears he's left standing in the exact same spot without budging.
"Well well well... Looks like I'm shit out of luck, huh?
Good thing I managed to keep this one in reserve!"

He crosses his fingers and forms a shield around his body.
"Again Sam? You saw how that worked last time-"

"Oh I'm not sure it'll work out the exact same way..."
He reaches into his pocket-

>>3983124
>Let him do what he wants... and then destroy that as well
Worst thing that can happen is we lose the tournament to a cheap trick but learn about the mafuba in a safe environment.

Oh wow. Didn't realize how eerily similar his actions are to the Mafuuba

Anyway, it looks like he gets to do it

Biggest brain ‘bot is looking out for us today!

Deciding to let Sam do as he pleases, you wait and observe him. Closely.
Watching his every move behind the safety of his barrier you almost reel back in horror when you see what he was reaching for.
From his inner pocket he produces a hand rolled cigarette... and you highly doubt he was just craving some nicotine.

Pulling up his hoodie with his free hand, Sam quickly pops the joint in his mouth and with a flame sprouting from his finger he lights it.
Almost immediately after the first puff, a terrifying grin spreads across his face while his visage seems to darken. Quickly his features disappear, leaving nothing but his white eyes and teeth contrasting the engulfing blackness.
His fist clenches down on the joint and he crushes it a bit too enthusiastically.

"Yeeeeeah... That's the good shit!"
Sam forcibly deepens his voice and makes it echo with his powers. What a poser.
"Apologies for the wait... but I wanted to make this special!!"
Reaching into his pocket he pulls out a pair of earbuds and puts them in.
"You see... This barrier is not to keep you out Eric. It's to keep everything else out.
And now... It's showtime!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-lST3hcN1w

He turns on the music in his phone and takes a stance like a conductor preparing to orchestrate the greatest concert of his life.
The air begins to sizzle around you as it gets charged with his practically oozing magical energy, making every strand of hair on your body stand up.
Putting his middle fingers and thumbs together he starts tapping his foot to the rhythm of the song before he starts snapping them.

Things start off relatively tame with one or two explosions happening at a time but that only lasts for a couple of seconds as he picks up the speed.
Pockets of air spontaneously combust, erupt in massive ice sculptures or electrically discharge around you seemingly at random.
The rapid changes in temperature and air pressure cause great gusts of wind to form on their own, adding another element to the chaos.

Jumping out of the way of the explosions, you do your best to dodge most of them but this unnatural storm shows no signs of abating.
Instead, it just keeps escalating without any clear indication that it'll stop anytime soon. The explosions grow in frequency and ferocity as Sams song picks up and get so out of control that his rape of the air actually starts to sound like... music.
Things shriek, creak and crackle in a mad cacophony of sound as the vibrations of the air are forcibly altered by Sams storm.

>>3983253
Oh no! Random elemental chaos and a place where the laws of causality have no rhyme nor reason! If only we had trained extensively in a place that had similar environmental conditions, we may have stood a chance!

>>3983259
kek

Meanwhile you just keep running, gliding and jumping around the place in an effort to stay out of that bullshit as much as possible.
"HAHAHAHA! YES! Keep Dancing!"

Sam starts gloating as he lowers his open palm before raising it up, causing a labyrinth of blue, hard as steel ice to erupt from the ground at once.
Still managing to stand perched on top of one such walls, you watch as Sams little safety bubble rises into the air as he continues his vile performance.
Now snake like tongues of fire slither around in the air while a literal thundercloud forms around you and channeling actual bolts of naturally formed lightning into you.
And Sams madness is only now about to reach its peak.

Colors distort and mirages alter your perception of reality, creating a kaleidoscope effect localized within the arena itself.
The nauseating sensation combined with the air somehow both scorching hot, freezing and filled with electricity makes merely existing painful.
And you can't help but take a second to drink it all in.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIcT36dKwv8

"Aaaaaaah... This takes me back! How pleasant~"

"Excuse you?!"
Sam asks you, visibly infuriated even behind the dark veil obscuring most of his face.

"I remember when we had such nice weather!
I used to take naps with Sala... I hope she didn't get homesick because of this."
Cracking your joints one by one you get back in gear before assuming your fighting stance.
"Alright, enough nostalgia. TIME TO GET BACK IN BUSINESS!"

"Have you lost your min-"

You then spring up and dash through the cloud of aetherial bullshit, ignoring all of it and just letting the pain invigorate you.
With your fingers extended you pierce the barrier before completely shattering it like glass and reaching for Sams neck.
He dodges just enough that you don't strangle him but in turn you manage to shut his mouth and dig your fingers in his cheeks.
His terrified scream is muffled by the flesh of your palm as you cackle like a hyena and push him into the wall.

Breaking through the concrete, you keep pushing Sam into the spectator area, up the stairs and into the outer wall of the stadium, putting a great dent into it.
Still grinning you keep him pinned against the wall and with your free hand punch him in the gut so hard that it breaks his concentration and all of his spells, including the one obscuring his face.
Finally you can clearly see his expression, the tears running down his cheeks which finally explain that wet sensation, his popping veins reddening his eyes and the wrinkles caused by indescribable terror.

>>3983259
To be fair it is an excellent move against anyone that is not like a handful of beings in U6 that had experience with the realm.

Sam is just as much of a monster as Eric really judging by his performance thus far. it's just that Eric has trained for longer and has more access to the best teacher in U6. It's really impressive that he even can do shit like this so fast with so little training.

>>3983292
Magic is a hell of a drug...
And drugs too...

>>3983284
>Finally you can clearly see his expression, the tears running down his cheeks which finally explain that wet sensation, his popping veins reddening his eyes and the wrinkles caused by indescribable terror.

...I kinda feel like a dick now. Nega-Som, are we the bad guy?

>>3983297
You are called the Slayer...
But Sam is also a major dickcheese, so I guess it's fair

>>3983297
Kind of he was bit proud and cock shure of his progress and... If the performance is any indication he had a reason to have a bit of a chip on his shoulder that likely would have disappeared eventually.

I think Eric just kind of decided he shouldn't and it really rubed him the wrong way. Like what is he proud of he is still a small fish kind of thing.

>>3983300
Fair enough. I still feel kinda bad for terrifying the fuck out of him so badly, but he needed the wake-up call yesterday, since he was acting like King Asshole of Dick Mountain.

>>3983306
Plus he triggered what's the second or third closest thing to a Vietnam flashback to Eric.
If he started displaying shit like Technomancy, he'd be fucking dead right now.

>>3983300
Yeah... To be frank the Slayer persona is my least favorite part of his character. I know it was born in deamon realm to survive and thrive there just he is not there anymore.

>>3983310
Wack, I love it

Letting go of him just in case he's about to soil himself, you stare at Sam as he slides down onto the floor while barely managing to contain his terrified tears.

"And now you understand.
Don't get carried away again... because there's always a bigger fish. And if you don't act nice they might just fuck your face.
But... I have to admit you got quite strong quite quick. You certainly got talent. Just be a bit nicer about it in the future.
And as far as I'm concerned you earned the prize money-"
Leaving him there you fly back into the ring so the jury can finally count Sam out and declare you the winner.
The crowd, having the fact that you were quite terrifying fly over their heads, cheer for you enthusiastically and the Saiyans finally descend from their little area.

"Impressive display young man!"
King Sadala speaks up and pats you on the shoulder before reaching for your arm and lifting it up in the air.
"WE HAVE A WINNER!"
Waiting a few minutes for the crowd to die down a bit, the king continues.
"Now... I'm sure there will be a great ceremony where you'll receive your reward but first... we got other things to attend to!"
He takes a microphone from the staff and starts speaking to the audience as well.
"Now as you may have heard this does not mean the end of the tournament! NO! We got a special treat for the kind people of Earth!
An honor duel between the strongest sons of our planets! PLEASE! Welcome the Prodigy of Sadala! CAPTAIIIIN CABBA!"
So Cabba got a promotion, huh? Good for him. Sadly it probably means just more work for him.

The royal family makes way for the young man and he walks up to shake your hand.
"Congratulations Eric!"

"Did you doubt me?"

"Can't say I have.
Hey... before we begin... I gotta ask you something."
He leans in closer to you and whispers in your ear.
"I know we're supposed to have an honor duel but... I was wondering if you'd be willing to cooperate with me a bit?"

"What do you mean?"

"W-Well you see, I'm not too keen on fighting... not right now anyway.
So I thought maybe we should... "send a message" instead. If you catch my meaning!
Or... we could fight too if you wanna."

You frown a bit as you think about what he said.
He can't mean... can he?

>Okay. I'll play with you. How should we do it?
>Maybe a bit of fun won't hurt...
>Nah. I'm sure we'll deliver your "message" as we fight anyway.
>Other?

>>3983340
>Nah. I'm sure we'll deliver your "message" as we fight anyway.

I'm not sure I know what he's getting at

>>3983340
>Maybe a bit of fun won't hurt...

If he means what I think he means...
Has Cabba become a fusion slut or something?
You know, if I'm right.
Are there any earrings available?
Caulifla and Kale have a set, don't they?

I don't want the chance of Cabba fucking this up.

Think of It like this, It's a lasting trauma for Eric. We went there In the first place because It was the fastest way to get strong enough to beat Frost, but the Makai put a constant strain on him for months.

The other two aspects of It's importance are the fact that because the kai's made a TV show about It, we've kind of got a bit of celebrity status surrounding It, and finally because we killed Frost with the mask still on, It's how we came to be known by the public and now how we go around while hiding our true identity, super hero style. So there IS reason the Slayer thing Is still around anon.

>>3983363
Well we've only done It (successfully, there was that bit In the Makai) once, so hopefully not?

Besides, since this Isn't a combat situation we should be able to take our time and the DC shouldn't be too high to do the fusion...

>>3983361

Okay. It looks like we'll have just a little fight with Cabba.
Nothing serious. As such I won't be asking any DC from you since neither participant wants to "win"

"Okay! I'm game!
But don't be such a stick in the mud!
An honor duel is an honor duel! If you're so worried about me then let's just skip to the fun part!
I'm warmed up already anyway."

"Heh... was it that obvious?
But if you're saying you're okay, I won't doubt it.
So... wanna hear my idea?"

"Sure.
Might as well know what I'm getting into."

Cabbas expression gets serious.
"Eric, I-"
He swallows nervously.
"I think it's about time we ended this charade.
I've been living a lie for a while now and I'm getting sick of it.
It's time people knew about "it". I want to bare it all!"

*sigh*
"I thought you might say something like that just... not quite to that extent.
And I assume you want me to join in as well?"

He nods.
"That's the plan."
So he wants to reveal the next level to Humans and Saiyans alike, huh? Interesting.
Not sure what his end goal is, or if he even has one but at least now you know what he wants.
"So uh... are you ready? Because we can wait if you want to heal up-"

"Just shut up Cabba and punch me already!
I need my actual climax and I need it badly!
If we're gonna do this then the least you can do is indulge me! So hit me with everything right from the get go!"

"Okay! You asked for it!"

Cabba assumes the stance he learned from Vegeta and you raise your hands to maximize the effectiveness of your Time-Skip.
After exchanging a brief little glance the two of you spring into action simultaneously, fists cocked and ready.
You exchange the worlds most forceful fistbump to date, sending a shockwave through the entire complex and pressing people against their seats with the power of at least 2 G's.
Even the Saiyans are taken aback by the force the two of you display right off the start.

"W-WIND? From a mere FISTFIGHT?!"

Your thunderous blows keep shaking the ground and creating an ever expanding crater under your feet as your perfectly synced blows keep clashing against one another.
Not feeling like using any of your cheap tricks, you simply rely on brute force for once and just have some fun.
Relinquishing your hold on your Ki, you let the audience experience the full force of your energy and Cabba does the same.
The blue and purple energy washes over the audience members, most of whom are terrified by it. And only those who are initiated in the arts and aware of the higher realm sit with a calm frown on their faces.
They feel that something's off.

"Oy oy! Are you serious?!"
Princess Azuki speaks up, much to the surprise of her family.

"S-Sister? What's wrong?"

"Open your eyes Sadala!
It's just like it was back home... Something's wrong!
It feels like they are holding back!"

"I'm sure you're mistaken-"
Her mother speaks up.
"I know for a fact that this is Cabba boys limit... and by the looks of it the humans as well."

"No..."
Caya corrects her mother.
"Sis is right. Something's coming-"

Cabba cups his two hands together and smashes you over the head with it.
For a brief moment you get stunned and fall forward but thanks to your psyonics, you manage to balance yourself before throwing an uppercut enhanced with your abilities.
"NULL FIST: WHIRLWIND STRIKE!"

You hit him in the stomach and launch him high into the air, way above the stadiums roof.
Following him up, you stop the moment you get face to face with him and he chuckles while wiping his face clean.
"Hehe... Remember when we first sparred?"

"That was a while ago. But I do."

"It wasn't that long ago actually.
But here you are... standing more or less as an equal..."

"Awww don't be like that! Pretty sure you're an entire level ahead of me with that second level of yours!"

"Heh... Yeah.
Unfortunately brute force isn't exactly useful against you so-"
He looks down at his hands and closes them into a fist.
"I'll need to get stronger! And that means I can't tip-toe around any longer!
All this time I've been feeling like I was walking on eggshells... well no more!
And whatever it means for the future... I hope I can count on you as a friend... So here goes!"

The best/worst part about Deku is that the Spin-off vigilantes series has a protagonist that is basically him but done well and not absolute dogshit.

>O MY SEVEN QUIRKS!
>O KACCHAN PLEASE FUCK MY WIFE! YES BULLY ME HARDER!

>>3983522
Hmmm I had a Virgin vs Chad with Deku and Crawler but I can't find it no more.
Also, I don't watch or read either of these things, I just saw the 1st season of MHA and heard the MC never manages to cut himself off from his onions IV drip so I quit

Anyway
>writing

>>3983534
O MY SEVEN QUIRKS
Is because Deku actually has seven quirks now.
The powers of all the prior wielders of OfA.
But said powers have also all been supercharged by OfA.
So Deku is literally undefeatable now as he has like 5 Get out of Jail free cards where he can just pull up a previously unrevealed superpower.

>>3983557
7? Kek
That cuckold can't even use 1

>>3983559
You know the black webbing shit that comes off the Venom Symbote in spiderman? Not the web it fires but those tendrels that just wave all over the place?

Its basically that, the quirk, supercharged by OFA.

>The original user describes Blackwhip as a top-grade Quirk. It grants the user the ability to produce black tendrils from their arm and command them at will. It appears to be useful for capturing enemies and increasing one's own mobility by grabbing onto objects.[1]

By the time Izuku acquires this ability, Blackwhip has evolved within the core of One For All. When Izuku focuses on capturing a target and gets angry, this power explodes out of his arm. The black tendrils are much larger and powerful enough to cause Izuku great pain and force him into submission. The tendrils easily whipped Izuku around Ground Gamma and destroyed a number of its structures.[2]

Later when Izuku used the Quirk again to grab onto some pipes that were going to hit him, he found he could only use the Quirk for a brief amount of time because of how powerful it had become due to One For All. He was left with a numbing pain after using it.[3]

Recently it has been shown that Izuku is able to use a less powerful and smaller version of Blackwhip without any physical strain, as long as he stays calm while using it and doesn't go over five percent of his power.[4] In Izuku's fight with Ending, he was able to use Blackwhip to save cars from falling.[5]

"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

His entire body becomes wreathed in a golden glow as he starts out slow and eventually erupts in a full roar.
The gold around him expands into a proper aura and the color of his hair, as well as his eyes change to reflect the transformation.
Upon changing his energy is magnified several times over, the force of which hits the stadium without mercy, making even those normally insensitive to energy feel it ramming into them, like when an inaudible sound hits a person with enough force to make them sick.
But it's not them that are affected the most, it is the most seasoned of all, the Saiyans who are shocked to their core.
Their mouths hang agape in their dumb confusion, watching the golden god revealing himself above their heads.

"Well shit... now I gotta step up my game!"
Taking your mask off for a brief moment so you can be heard better, you start shouting.
"HUMANS! DEAD OR ALIVE! Watch me! Watch me and SEE!"
Clenching your fists you squat down and finally call forth your hidden strength.
"SEE WHAT IT'S LIKE TO REACH THE LIMITS OF HUMANS! AND GO! EVEN! FURTHER BEYOOOOOND!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-"
Consciously letting your energy go out of control upon transformation, you let them experience your change in energy.
Though it's nowhere near as impressive as Cabbas, the fact that you still managed to do something like that puts the fear of god into your fellow kin.

With the theatrics out of the way the two of you exchange a quick little nod and slowly descend back into the remnants of the ring while strapping your mask back on.
There is no need for demonstrations, no need for explanations. An unnerving yet serene calmness washes over the masses as they can't help but stare in awe at what they could only describe as... Divine.

And I think this about wraps up what I wanted to do today. I kinda wanted to do fusion as well but I understand why you wouldn't want that.
Good news! We reached the end of the tournament!
Now we only got a few little bits of post-tourney talks to go through (if you care enough to do so)

After that...
We won't have fights for a while.
I'm planning on doing socializing for a bit if you don't mind. Training maybe, developing relationships, wrapping up some other plot-threads etc.

I wish you guys a very merry Christmas and a happy new year should I not be able to run until then.
Here's hoping

>>3983580
Oh shit, now the world has seen our face.
Oh well, not like we actually visit Earth much. I just hope anonymous doesn't release our internet search history to the world.

>>3983586
With that much power being thrown around, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a shit ton of interference, let alone mechanical failure from the shockwaves of previous fights or from Cabba’s SSJ transformation.

The gear used in the Cell Games didn’t survive for long when Cell started throwing his weight around.

>>3983586
Erm... you were kinda high in the air when you removed it, way out of eyesight in fact.
The only people who could see it are the Saiyans with their scouters and they already know what you look like and don't care

>>3983591
And the fbi/jews with their spy satellites and shit

thanks for the run not-som

>>3983582

Thanks for the run!

How much WAS Eric holding back against Sigurd and Bruce? I got the feeling that we had to start getting serious against Sigurd, and had to actually fight for reals against Bruce once he started tapping into the higher numbers of the Kaio-ken.

Hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Nega-Som!

>>3983608
Against both... Eric used everything his BASE form had to offer and tapped into Buus a bit.
But that's a form you literally just got so you can't use it properly.
The whole "holding back" referred to Awakening solely.

>>3983534
If you enjoyed MHA but wished Deku was a bit more of a chad and wanted more world building there is a quest that's a good alternative out there, but the autism is off the charts
. Last I checked they were talking about the possibility of sentient parasitic quirks and genetically engineered humans made from stolen cumrags by the CIA. It truly amazes me how every thread of Stand Quest Requiem manages to top the autism of the previous one, it's a shame that we'll be occupied by USJ and the aftermath for a while once it starts back up in January. I really wanted to know what was going on with the foreign transaction ledgers.

>>3983625
Stop shilling that shit.
MHA is shit.

I agree.
While I don't object to "every side character being better than the protagonist" that only applies when the protag himself is actually good and not shit.
How is it that literally everybody else is more interesting and would make a better main character than Cucku

Deku's not perfect, but he actually is a good protagonist (aside from the Bakugo apologism, and even that tones down later in the series). Basically, if you haven't even watched/read the series, don't buy into the memes. They're fun in a stupid way, but they are not accurate at all.

>>3984207
You wouldn’t know a good protagonist even if they fucked you in the ass. You want a good protagonist? Look no further than Guts.
>Manly, doesn’t have a childlike figure.
>Is neither a moralfag nor a murderhobo - he has detailed and realistic emotions, desires, and fears throughout the story.
>Only cries in situations where it’s warranted and understandable, doesn’t shed tears unnecessarily but still sheds them as proof of his humanity.
>All of his power was earned personally through hard work and dedication. His equipment was well-earned.
>Would go directly into hell if it was to save a friend.
>Doesn’t forgive transgressions easily like a fool would.
>Actually has emotional development and is not a stagnant character
And that’s just the tip.

>>3984258
I mean, Guts is a great protagonist. I'm not gonna argue that. Deku also is, if not on the same level. It's not a zero-sum game, there aren't a finite number of slots available before everyone is forced to write shitty protags.

>>3984478
He's the shittyiest protagonist ever, especially since his big powerup all of his own is figuring out that he has legs and can kick stuff

>>3984478
He isn't though...
Afaik, every character including his bullies mom would make a better protag than him.
That's not exactly the quality of a great protag

I mean, I get the intention.
The whole show is praised for breaking conventions and that's most apparent in Izuku.
However, I think the creator forgot an important thing.
That conventions exist for a good reason, they work.
We can hate on Toriyama all we want about the shit tropes he created... but they are still popular
"Cool" characters like Trunks aalways were and always will be popular, etc.

BnHA is dogshit.
It made the main character too strong out of nowhere (SEVEN QUIRKS) so then the villain had to have his own gay arc and an "ow the edge" level flashback powerup.
90 percent of heroes could be killed by a fucking gun.

Deku himself isn't just shit a shit protagonist.
He's the worst shonen protagonist we've ever had.
>No superpower?
>told you can't be a hero?
>do you:
>>Persevere, you'll find a way to be a hero without a quirk!
>>Give up lmao.
>>Randomly get given the worlds greatest power for free because you acted like a suicidal retard.

In this universe, Batman can't be a hero, but the living spacesuit man that is a literal fucking blackhole can be a hero.

Do you even comprehend what you read? Nevermind, you're posting on 4chan I have my answer. No, he's not on the same level. That doesn't make him bad though.

Imma be honest, this all sounds to me like the usual 4chan "I don't like X, therefore it's shit and always was because clearly I have impeccable taste" faggotry. Your opinion is not objective, don't pretend it is.

>>3984760
Deku is inconceivably shit.
I could write an essay on why he's pathetic, but the virgin vs chad meme works better.
He's a more pathetic self insert character than even the generic isekai protags.
>Deku does something that any other Shonen protag does like once or twice every chapter for the first time in 70 chapters

He's trash.

At least Isekai protagonists don't tend to act like they genuinely worked for their cheat skills.

This is probably my favorite part of the Overhaul arc. People were legit freaking out over dudes with guns. And then it turns out that those bullets could literally shoot you in the fucking superpower.

Hey hey people!
I wanted to do this at midnight but then I remembered time-zone shenanigans.
I just hopped on to wish y'all a very Merry Christmas.
Sadly I did not prepare any gifts for you, as the only thing I can give is my writing and I believe you got more important things to do right now.

So for what it's worth I hope you get to sit back and relax during this brief pause in everyday monotony.

Back when I started I did not realize I'd last even half as long as I did, let alone the fact that I managed to make the time of so many of you just a little bit better.
And don't worry. I'm not gonna bail anytime soon. I'm having just as much, if not more fun than you guys. Even with the occasional hiccups from my part.

And if you feel like repaying me in any way, just have a drink in my name while I'm forced to slave away in my workplace.
See you guys soon

This confirms it.
The fanfic tier self insert is complete.
Now I'm finally done raging. I've peaked.
But I'm also torn. On one hand, while not many rules have been established about the angels, this still breaks pretty much all of them.
On the other it makes them have some potential depth...
However it still feels wrong

In better news, Vegeta seems to be doing alright.
So here's hoping

>>3987049
So Merus was basically a young Angel going full chuuni cosplaying as a Galactic Patrol member? I mean, we don't know enough about Angels to say that can't happen, and it does explain his fanfic-tier power level, but ehhh...

There is actually good stuff there, it just easily gets drowned out by their well-deserved reputation for shitty wish-fulfillment smut quests.

I've even tried reading some of the smut-quests (distinct from "quests with smut in them") for fairness' sake, and they were just as shit as reputation made them seem. But yeah, I could easily recommend a number of actually entertaining ones if anyone cared.

I just hope non of them are Vex quests the guy is bouncing from quest to quest like a bouncy ball. As for recommendations "A Chuuni's Guide To Isekai" is enjoyable and "Pokémon Professor Quest" (The one written by Prof) are good picks to read if you have not allready.

>>3988198
Yeah, akun’s got some decent picks, if you’ve already built up enough of a tolerance for degeneracy that you can wade through all the shitty ones to find them.

>>3988725
There are a few QMs that jump from quest to quest. Annoys the hell out of me, since if they just stuck to one they could probably write something at least half-decent. Dao (I only read that one dragonball quest he did with the frost demon, but it was pretty alright until he cancelled it), sanstus (Liked that one DMC quest he did, even if the WoW one was shit), moon (He’s still a filthy fucking traitor though), chuckles (actually no, not chuckles, chuckles just sucks and seeing a new quest of his live always annoys the hell out of me), etc.
