Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

After returning to the Lurcehulk, Karn was ambushed by yet another Stand user, Mistral Wind. After the battle, Dr. White noticed the Sangheili had placed several of those pink crystals in the healing pods. After removing the dangerous crystals and taking a night’s sleep, Karn returned to training his and Meloka’s students. But while training them, he also studied with his wife and vastly improved his ability to manipulate his ki. Yet after only a month’s training Karn’s skill developed rapidly. Yet all too soon the battle for Sangheios began, Lord Freeza and his cousin Arctus fighting their fleet in space while you, King Vegeta, and the other Saiyans attacked planetside. But as we rejoin Karn, the battle isn’t going so well for you, considering you’re pinned to the ground by one of their warships’ glassing cannons.

“Tch! This! Is! NOTHING!!” you roar, unleashing your ki in another powerful Explosive Wave. Your energy is far stronger than their cannons, forcing it off you and allowing you to rise up to your feet. Almost as soon as you do the cannon stops firing, you ending your technique as you look up. As you do, five of their blue glowing grenades are tossed down at you. On reflex you almost destroy them, then have a better idea. Instead of destroying them yourself you use your telekinesis, grabbing the grenades and throwing them straight up out of the hole.

“What the-?” one splitjaw shouts, shocked.
“Get down!” another calls, just as they all explode. Not wasting a second you leap into the air, and seeing that one of them has let it’s cloak slip you attack. Before it even knows what’s happening you stomp down, boot crushing it’s skull to paste. But you’re not done yet, gathering your ki into your palms. Since you can’t see or sense them, it’s time for some area damage.
“HAAAAA!!” you roar, slinging your right hand’s Scattershot in a wide arc that blasts about half the large crater your original blast made. But as you do, your instincts warn you of danger behind you. Without hesitation, and using your new skill in manipulating ki, you change the energy in your left hand from a Scattershot to an Energy Javelin, thrusting it behind you. You feel it pierce something, as you do you leap to the left and turn enough to see another Sangheili become visible.

“But, how...?” it asks, confused for only a moment before the spear explodes and obliterates it. And just like that, as the dust from that attack settles, everything goes quiet but for your aura flaring bright green around you.
“So the stories were true, after all.” an unfamiliar voice calls, you turning and seeing a surprisingly familiar suit of armor come crashing down to the ground. “Karn, the Heretic.”

“Your power is quite exceptional.” the golden-armored Sangheili says, rising up to his feet as he begins circling towards your left. You match his movements, moving clockwise and keeping the distance between you two static. “I was there to witness your victory over my predecessor, you know. I respect your strength, and more importantly your honor. However, I myself am duty-bound to eliminate you.”
“Why? Because your masters told you to?” you ask, sneering at the splitjaw and trying to goad him into rushing at you. But he’s more disciplined than that, a low grow escaping his throat the only sign of his displeasure. “Or is it because I slaughtered your predecessor in a fair fight?”

“You gave him a warrior’s death. Which is more than that failure deserved.” the Arbiter says, genuinely surprising you. He notices this and chuckles, explaining further as you both slowly circle each other and wait for an opening to attack. “For failing in his mission, he was to be executed. You gave him the chance to win back his honor, to die in battle fighting for the Cause. You were far kinder to him than the masters. So in return I shall offer you the same honor. I will fight you here and now, one-on-one. And may the crows feast on the weak.”

Splitjaws have yet to show any of them have even a remote bit of honor, i kind of expect them to try to cheat and fuck us over at this point, so having someone on watch for them would be really useful.

“You want to go out the same way as your predecessor, huh?” you ask, while also telepathically reaching out to King Vegeta. “We’ve got a problem. I found the Arbiter.”
“WHAT?!” he replies, you sensing his alarm through the mental link. “Dammit!”
“I’m engaging him now, but he may try something underhanded.” you think, both you and the Arbiter stopping at the same time and squaring up to each other. “I may need some backup if any of his underlings interfere.”
“Understood.” he replies, then not directed at you. “Bardock, did you catch that?”
“I’ll head over now.” Bardock tells you. “But I won’t jump in right away. I’ll stay on the lookout.”
“Be careful, there are still maybe three invisible Sangheili around me.” you tell him, then finish addressing the Arbiter himself. “If you want to die so badly, I’ll grant your wish.”

“I won’t lose to you, heretic.” he replies, drawing his single golden energy blade. “No matter how powerful that Crimson Dragon is. Everyone, stay back! I’ll defeat him by myself.”

And suddenly you can once more sense three other Sangheili, who were all behind you, begin quickly backing away to the outside of the giant crater. This leaves you facing the golden-armored Sangheili, but for some reason his entire left arm is unarmored. While most would think that’s an opening to attack, you realize that he’s most likely using that as bait. Plus, you don’t even know if he has a Stand or not, and what other powers he may be able to wield. So you don’t hesitate, and unleash your full power.

“RRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!” you roar, emerald aura exploding outward as you Ascend. Bolts of lightning begin dancing around you as your power doubles, you then taking your fighting stance as the transformation into an Ascended Berserker ends. You’re noticeably stronger than this Arbiter now, but not enough to guarantee an easy win. You’ll have to play this smart. “Your move.”

“If you won’t make the first move, then I will.” he says, launching himself at you unarmored-shoulder first with his sword held back ready to strike. If he’s going to leave such a target wide-open, then you’ll take advantage of it. As he charges you aim your right hand at his shoulder, and fire a Death Beam. He doesn’t even try to dodge, but as your beam strikes him, the most unexpected thing happens. Your energy strikes his arm, but instead of piercing through, it almost feels like the beam is breaking, shattering like glass as tiny energy particles are knocked away. Your jaw drops, the Arbiter closing in and attempting to end you during this moment of confusion.

But you’re not so easily bested, dodging around the Arbiter’s right side as he thrusts his blade for your chest. While twisting you swing a powerful right backhand for it’s head, but the Arbiter counters with his left forearm. Your arm guard crashes against his unarmored forearm, your powerful blow sending him sliding backwards a dozen or so feet. But to your surprise, before your eyes the vambrace begins falling apart! In shock you watch as it slowly disintegrates for a second or two, part of it turning into dust before the effect seemingly stops.

“The hell?” you mutter, looking from it to the Arbiter. And not a moment too soon, seeing him again charging shoulder-first at you. This time you don’t hesitate, swinging both arms as you fire an X Slash at him. He doesn’t simply absorb this much-wider attack, instead opting to leap over it then with a front flip dash right back towards you. Again he goes for a lunging sword thrust, this time you’re ready. With a quick effort of will you conjure a Ki Blade in your left hand, deflecting his sword past your head as you follow up with a powerful right-handed Piercing Fist uppercut. He doesn’t dodge the attack, instead reaching out with his left hand and blocking the spiraling, piercing point of ki. And much like your earlier Death Beam, again you feel your energy falling apart at his touch. Before his hand could completely destroy your attack you end it, leaping back and away as his blade slams down into the ground you’d been standing on.

“The hell is that?!” you think to yourself, sliding to a stop and retaking your stance as the Arbiter rises back up off the ground. A cloud of faint grey smoke seems to be gathered around his entire left arm, no doubt the results of whatever he’s doing to break down both your armor and ki.
“You cannot beat me.” the Arbiter says, retaking their kind’s unusual fighting stance. “Surrender now, and I’ll give you a painless death.”

interesting, perhaps his stand makes it so that his left arm is unable to be affected at all by outside force, meaning that the beam's energy had to flow away

“You really think I’d just roll over and die?” you ask, gathering your energy in both hands. “I’m just getting started. Take this!”
“Useless.” he says, raising his left hand and catching the ball of ki you’d tossed. But you don’t just stop there, holding both hands forward you unleash a stream of ki blasts at the Sangheili as the first is disintegrating. Your attacks keep the splitjaw on the defensive, hiding behind his left arm as you fire dozens of shots right at him per second. “You won’t beat me. All you’re accomplishing is that you’ll die tired.”

“Who says I’m the one who’s dying today?” you shout back, keeping up the assault as you begin mixing in the shots for you Hellzone Grenade as well. The blasts go wide, holding place as within several seconds you’ve got the Arbiter surrounded. As you end the volley you fire the final pair of blasts, the Arbiter glancing around and recognizing the situation. “Now, perish! Hellzone Grenade!!”

And as you shout you cross your arms, the hundred or so explosive shots all flying right towards the Arbiter. But he doesn’t simply sit still, the splitjaw surprising you by rushing headlong at you. Trusting his left arm as a shield, a half dozen or so shots are obliterated as he charges through them right at you.

“Shit!” you shout, twisting again to the Sangheili’s right as it thrusts for your heart. You don’t quite dodge in time, the energy blade slicing through your armor and into your chest. Luckily for you it was only a glancing blow; if that’d hit directly you would have no doubt perished. But as it stands now you have an opening, and plan to take full advantage of it. “HRRRAAAAAA!!”

Shouting out you swing, your left fist crashing hard into the right side of the Arbiter’s head. And your blow connects, the impact sending him flying into the far side of the crater. You retake your stance, the Arbiter pulling himself from the wall and facing you. Wordlessly your foe retakes his fighting stance, seemingly no worse for wear from the single heavy blow. You’re going to have to lay the hurt on to put this bastard down. But how?

Well? What now?

“Not bad.” you say, reaching behind your back and drawing the ancient greatsword. As you pull it free, the blade enlarges, it’s magic scaling the weapon up to your Berserker size as you take the Djem So stance. “But let’s see if you have any skill with that blade of yours, or if it’s just for stabbing people in the back.”
“Hmph. I accept your challenge.” the Arbiter says, changing his stance a bit in response to yours. No doubt to better-intercept the powerful overhead strikes this form delivers. “By my blade or by Blessing, you shall fall this day.”
“Bring it on.” you taunt, taking a step forward. The Arbiter matches you, taking a single step forward as well. You both repeat this until you are standing only ten or so feet apart, just outside of your large weapon’s range.

The tension hangs thick in the air, so heavy you’ll have to cut through it when you swing your blade down. But neither of you make the first move, staring each other down and looking for the first hint of an opening. But with him holding position, and not giving you anything to work with, you’ll have to make your own opening. And so you do.

“HAAA!” you shout, taking a half-step forward with your left and faking going in for an attack. It works, the Sangheili almost flinching as he leaps to your left. “GOTCHA!!”

You then go on the offensive, diagonally chopping down from your left to right as you spin towards him. But the Arbiter saw your swing coming, deflecting your strike oher his head as he closes the distance. As your blade slams down to the ground he’s inside your guard, swinging his sword at you in a horizontal left-to-right cut. With only a moment to act you leap back, dodging the first blow narrowly and bringing your sword back up in time to knock aside the follow up stab. Now you go on the offensive, dropping heavy overhand blows followed up by quick uppercuts and lightning-swift jabs that force the Arbiter onto the defensive. To your surprise his skills with a blade are quite advanced, the splitjaw trading blows for over a minute before finding an opening and leaping back away from your horizontal cut.

“Impressive.” he says simply, chest heaving a bit as he evens out his breathing. Despite being skilled, his sword is a one-handed weapon. And your arms are certainly stronger than his. “It would seem I underestimated you, Saiyan. Taking you down myself will be more difficult than I’m thought. But I won’t back down!”

“HAAAAA!!” you shout, once more lunging forward and taking the battle to the Arbiter. Starting with a powerful overhead chop, the splitjaw leaps back instead of facing your power head-on. He’s well aware of the strength gap between you both, and clearly trying to avoid tiring his arm out. So you press the assault, reversing your attack into an upwards swing then stepping forward into a left to right horizontal slash. The Sangheili keeps pace, deflecting your sword when he can but is mostly forced to entirely evade. The advantages are overwhelmingly in your favor, but you don’t make any reckless mistakes. You’ve been trained too well in Djem So for that.

“Good. Keep up the pressure, but don’t overextend.” you can almost hear the ancient master Darth Bane say in his instructor tone. You flow effortlessly from attack to attack, virtually chasing your opponent down as he searches for an opening to strike back. But you don’t give him one, relentlessly swinging your blade over and over from every direction you can. He keeps on the defensive, never pitting his power directly against yours but instead focusing on keeping just out of your range. This continues for a few minutes, until the Arbiter makes a mistake. While backing away from another upward slash, he trips on the uneven ground. Caught by complete surprise he falls to his back, you immediately seizing on the opening.

“DIE!!” you roar, swinging the massive sword down. But as you do, you realize you’ve been played. Throwing everything into that attack, you realize you’ve committed too hard to the strike as he rolls to your right, evading your full-power strike. And before you can pull back he reaches out, left hand grabbing firmly onto your scorched, cracked armor. Your eyes widen in surprise, and realizing the danger you’re in try to leap back and away from the Arbiter. But he’s not done yet, thrusting his blade at the spot he’d grabbed of your rapidly-disintegrating armor. His sword finds it’s mark, thrusting cleanly into your side. “GAH!”

“Now, you shall die!” he shouts, trying to thrust the blade in deeper. But you bring your right foot up, plant it on his chest, and kick yourself free. Letting go of your sword with your left hand you hold the wound shut, trying to gauge how bad it really is. And while it is bleeding your glowing blood pretty badly, you don’t think it’s an immediately fatal hit. Looking back up, the Arbiter is once more is taking his fighting stance and staring you down. “You won’t leave this place alive.”

What now?

Also the Arbiter said this:
>"By my blade or by Blessing, you shall fall this day."
I'm 99% convinced Arbiter has a Stand. "Blessings" is how they appeared to call Stands in the Covenant.
Maybe his Stand is what makes his left arm act similarly to Hakai.

“Gah, dammit!” you snarl, planting your feet and hefting your long blade in just your right hand while your left holds your side. “I-I’m not done yet!”
“A warrior to the end. Commendable.” the Arbiter says, taking a pair of steps forward and seemingly confidence at your apparent weakness. “But it is only a matter of time now. Either you succumb to your wounds, or my blade finds your throat first. But you won’t survive.”
“Like hell I won’t!” you seethe, holding your sword not in the Djem So stance but before you vertically in a more defensive posture. “Don’t you dare underestimate me!”
“I’m merely stating the facts.” he says, but still approaches you somewhat cautiously. “This ends now.”

And without another word he surges forward, swinging his blade in a rapid string of attacks. You fall into a full defensive, circling backwards and away from him and meeting his blade with your own. Over and over your swords clash, your technique no doubt seeming much sloppier to him now now. Just as you wanted.

“Karn, the three have been eliminated, I’m coming to help you now.” Bardock thinks, surprising you. If he jumps in now, he might ruin it.
“Hold on, not yet.” you reply, still giving ground under the Arbiter’s assault. “I’ve almost got him.”
“Karn, this is no time for your pride to get in the way.” he answers angrily. “You’re bleeding all over that crater!”
“If I don’t end him in the next two minutes, then you can jump in.” you tell him angrily. “But until then stay out of this. He’s much more dangerous than the last one.”

At this Bardock doesn’t reply again, but you know he’s watching this intensely. Time to finish this.

“HAAAA!” he shouts, swinging his blade down in a powerful overhand chop. You catch his blade with your sword’s crossguard, holding his weapon at bay. “Let your struggle end, Saiyan. This is over.”
“You’re right about one thing.” you say, unable to contain your smirk. The Arbiter’s eyes widen in surprise, but before he can back off you strike. Left hand letting go of your side, you focus your ki into a Ki Blade and swing upwards. Your razor-sharp energy slices clean through the Arbiter’s golden armor, his stump spraying blood as he screams in surprised pain. “This is over. But not for me.”

You don’t think he hears you, that faint cloud of odd energy disappearing from his left arm as he drops to his knees, clutching his new stump. Which is just as well, you’re not here to make him suffer. You just need him dead. Without a word you heft your blade overhead in both hands, then swing.

Your ancient, magical blade bites deep into the Arbiter, slicing clean through his armor and flesh. With a single blow your sword cuts clean through him, from right shoulder to more than halfway through his torso. You feel his ki begin fading, the Arbiter’s glassed-over gaze meeting yours.

“You...lose.” he says, and suddenly your instincts warn you that he’s still incredibly dangerous. But before you can move away, everything vanishes in a bright flash of light.

That's very unlikely from GD, but we might have to retire from the battlefield early. Which really sucks but we killed their best fighter so it's a fair trade.

Perhaps next time we go beserk 2 rather than ascended. We were in ascended right?

Phew, he fucking Poor Man Rose'd us, that cheeky son of a bitch.

Yeah, that's what we were using, ascended berserker. It even said our blade grew with us when we used it.

Ah my bad, guess I read ascended and thought normal ascended form.

So, let's try and figure what the fuck just happened.
I'm almost 100% sure that whatever detonated wasn't as a result of his stand, and is more likely a counter-measure hidden somewhere on his body in the intended event of his death.
So, let's safely say our hypothetical bomb was Covenant technology (why wouldn't it be?), what's the main problem for humanoids when exposed to Covenant weaponry?
Radiation.
It's exactly the type of thing they'd take advantage of just to make sure we're out of the fight permanently.

>>4428263
Thats exactly what happened lol.

Is this it? Is this how we die?
Walking dead as a gift from a suicide bomber?
>>4428267
Long term exposure to relatively high doses of radiation can cause cancer.
Short term exposure to extreme amounts of radiation causes, but is not limited to
>Weakness, fatigue, fainting, confusion
>Bleeding from the nose, mouth, gums, and rectum
>Bruising, skin burns, open sores on the skin, sloughing of skin
>Severe Dehydration
>Diarrhea, bloody stool
>Fever
>Hair loss
>Inflammation of exposed areas
And eventually death.
Not to mention with our proximitiy to the blast, we might be a walking elephant's foot and inadvertently exposing everybody around us to radiation.

You don’t know how they did it, but as the Arbiter died, a massive explosion was unleashed. With both hands still on your blade, and focused only on killing your opponent, you were caught completely off-guard by this. You take the powerful explosion head-on, the blast dozens upon dozens of times more powerful than the glassing laser you’d tanked earlier. The sensations are so overwhelming that you lose all sense for a time, but the first thing that returns is the pain. Everything feels like it’s burning, your entire body replaced by unbearable, searing agony. The next sense to return to you is your sight, seeing nothing but a smoke-filled sky above you. Your hearing doesn’t return, a high-pitched whining noise filling your ears as all you can smell is something burning.

You try sitting up, to get a better view of what’s going on, but simply don’t have the strength. You simply lay there, until after what feels like ages you see someone fly down and land beside you. You can’t make out their features, or even what they’re saying, but after a several moments a second figure suddenly just appears beside the first. There’s something familiar about this second form, you realizing who it is as she kneels down beside you.

“Me...Lo...” you say, or at least attempt to. Your throat is scorched raw, even breathing is an agony, much less talking. She says something that you can’t hear over the ringing, then lays a hand on your chest. If you hadn’t seen her do it, you would have thought she’d just stabbed you again. You cry out in agony, before your mind is simply overwhelmed by pain and everything again fades into calm nothingness. The agony soon slides away, leaving you floating alone in a tranquil, endless void. Or at least, you’d thought you were alone.

“Whoa man, they really don’t like you, huh?” a familiar voice calls out. You turn, seeing the purple demon man who the voice belongs to. “I can’t believe you actually survived that.”
“Fu?” you ask, confused. “What happened?”
“Long story short, the Covenant’s higher-ups wanted you dead no matter what.” he explains. “So they put a bomb inside their Arbiter, and set it so when his heart stops beating, it would explode. So when you killed him, they nearly killed you too.”
“They hve weapons this powerful?” you ask, alarmed. If there’s any more of them, you have to alert the others before-
“Woah woah, take it easy. They only made the one.” he says, far too calmly. “Well; they tried to make another bomb, but...Let’s just say their people who crafted it didn’t survive duplicating their research. So congratulations, you survived their ultimate weapon. Both the Arbiter, and the bomb.”

“What about everyone else?” you ask him, his too-relaxed demeanor putting you on edge. “Bardock was closest to me, did he-?”
“Look, you took that ungodly explosion head-on and somehow survived.” he says, a note of irritation creeping into his voice. “If you survived that, everyone much farther away took way less of it than you did. You tell me how they’re faring.”
“Point taken.” you say, then address him. “So why are you here? Is it about that demon, Mechi-mrmph!?”

“Don’t say his name!” Fu hisses as he slams a palm over your mouth and looks around worriedly for several seconds. “If you do, he might hear you. Understood?”

You don’t reply with words, simply nodding to him. After a few more seconds he sighs out in relief, letting you go.

“Sorry. But if he catches us here, neither of us will see our bodies ever again.” he says, confusing you even further. “But I have a message for you, from a certain Towa you know. She wants you to know-Dammit, not now!”

The realm of darkness around you begins cracking, light starting to come through.

“Listen! You’ve gotta stay on your toes! The Covenant aren’t acting alo-!”

And you’re suddenly wide awake.

Looking around, you quickly realize that you’re once more inside a healing pod. And almost as soon as you do, the healing fluid begins draining out. Once the pod is empty but for you the door opens, hissing as the airtight seal is undone. You step out, and realize that you’ve been in there longer than the few moments it’d felt like. Dozens of injured Saiyans are all gathered in the room, many of them your disciples. But before you can say anything an exhausted Dr. White starts helping a grievously-injured Saiyan up off an exam table. Wordlessly you go to help him, getting the bloody, weakened Saiyan into the pod you just vacated. As Dr. White puts the mask over his face you quietly transform into your weakest Super Saiyan form, then place your hand on his chest and begin channeling your emerald energy into his body.

“Stay strong.” you say, feeling the fading Saiyan’s ki beginning to stabilize as you back up, Dr. White closing the pod. You then turn to the room, several of them all staring at you intensely. “I can’t heal you. But I can share my energy with you all. But the weakest first, before their powers fade.”

And for the next several minutes you channel your ki into every one of the others. Those closest to death were first, you channeling more power into them in an attempt to stabilize their life energy. Then you move on to those with lesser injuries, before finally coming face-to-face with one of your Super Saiyan disciples, Sabi.

“How bad is it down there?” you ask her, placing a hand on her shoulder as you channel some of your ki into her. “What happened?”
“You mean after they almost killed you?” she asks, you wincing as your body remembers that excruciating experience. “Well, after that massive explosion finally ended, they began fighting even more desperately. Almost as if they knew it was the Arbiter who’d died.”
“No doubt they knew.” you tell her. “Or at least suspected. He’d even called off his allies, and now I know why he didn’t want them anywhere close by. They were determined to kill me, one way or another.”

“We saw. That explosion was apparently even visible from the Lucrehulk while it was in space .” she says, you having several questions for that comment. “But a bit after that Lord Freeza himself came down, and began attacking them. And he was terrifying.”
“What happened?” you ask, Sabi actually shivering as she remembers it. You grab her by both shoulders, and make her look you in the eyes. “You okay?”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m fine.” she says, wrapping her arms around herself. “He was terrifying. I’ve never seen Lord Freeza fighting before. But, it wasn’t even a fight. He was like death itself had come, carving a path of destruction through the battlefield. Nothing and nobody who tried to get in his way survived his wrath. I’ve never felt so, so small before.”
“He can certainly be terrifying.” you reply to her, holding the younger Saiyan close. “Just be glad he’s on our side.”
“But what if...What if one day he isn’t?” she asks, whispering in your ear. “What do we do?”

That’s a rather unexpected question. Well?

“We have enough problems, without making up new ones.” you tell her, patting the younger Saiyan on the head. “Freeza may be terrifyingly strong, but he wouldn’t ever betray us. Not anymore.”
“What makes you so sure?” she asks, still sounding uncertain. “We can’t stop him. Even if you, Meloka, and King Vegeta too all stood up to him, it wouldn’t make a difference.”
“Probably not.” you say, answering her hypothetical question easily. “Lord Freeza is incredible. I first saw his Golden form when I was training him, back before the Siege of New Salda.”

“Wait, what?” she asks you, confused. “You, you actually trained Lord Freeza?”
“You didn’t know?” you ask her, genuinely surprised as she shakes her head. You’d just assumed everyone already knew about that. “I helped turn him into the fighter he was today. Me and Meloka both. We helped him break his limits, and unlock that Golden form of his.”
“I-I never knew.” she says, blushing a bit. “Now I feel kinda bad, doubting him like that.”
“Don’t worry, I get it.” you tell her. “I know what it’s like to be completely, impossibly outclassed. You just focusing on recovering, alright?”

“Yeah, I will.” she replies, you leaving your own medical bay. Several of your students are standing around in the kitchen, too involved in their meals to notice you. So you slip past them, climbing the stairs and opening the door to your room.
“He’ll be okay Mel, Karn’s as tough as they come.” Tunnip is saying, your wife laying in bed and holding little Karn Jr to her chest. “He’ll be up before you know it.”
“I dunno, he seems a little slow to me.” you say, both women turning to you. Tunnip smirks, but your gaze is focused on your wife. Meloka looks worn out and tired, but as she sees you her entire being lights up. Almost like a switch is thrown in her head. You quickly make your way to her, wrapping your arms around your wife. “Hey hun. Sorry for making you worry ‘bout me.”
“Karn-!” is all she can say, your wife choking up. You hold her close while she sobs uncontrollably, Karn Jr looking up at you curiously.

“Hey kiddo.” you say, freeing your right hand to reach over and pat his head. “You take good care of your mother?”
“AAAAaaaaaa.” he says, smiling at you. You chuckle, Meloka letting go of you despite still being teary-eyed.
“I heard what happened.” Tunnip says to you, looking you over. “Fucking suicide bombers. That’s why I always hated Saibamen. Uhh, no offense B7.”
“None taken.” the Saldaman says, you looking up and are surprised to see him clinging to the ceiling like some sort of spider. “Good to see you’re okay, Karn.”

“Thanks for watching over them for me B7.” you say, B7 meeting your gaze. “I really appreciate it.”
“It was my pleasure.” he says, crawling forward a bit before dropping back down to the ground. “But I should get back, no doubt there’s still plenty to do.”
“You need a hand, let me know.” you say, B7 nodding once before leaving the room. As he goes you see both your sword and hammer leaned up in the corner by the door, luckily someone brought them back. You then turn back to Meloka and Tunnip. “How long was I down for?”

Meloka looks to Tunnip, who thinks about it for a bit before answering.

“Two days.” she says, you feeling like you’d been shot through the chest. “It’s been two days since the bomb went off. We managed to take the planet, thanks to Freeza’s rampage. I’ve never seen him lose his cool and go off like that. Several times I thought the planet was toast, but he thankfully didn’t destroy it. The Lucrehulk landed in a spot he flattened, and the medical teams have been working overtime to aid those who’d been injured. Everything’s mostly settled down now, but...”

“But what?” you ask her, suspecting what could be wrong. And as she continues, Tunnip confirms your fears.
“There’s another, massive fleet on it’s way.” she says, sounding a bit nervous. “It’s larger than anything we’ve fought from them before or after the Siege itself. And at it’s current pace, it’ll be here tomorrow.”
“Dammit.” you say, sighing out. There’s always another Covenant fleet on the way. But you’re back on your feet, and feeling stronger than ever before. No matter how many they’re throw at you, and no matter what underhanded tricks they’ve tried, you’re still standing. The Covenant will have to do better than that!

>>4428558
Hell yeah, I hope we meet up with Frieza to get a bit of his perspective on what went down. His character and his dynamic with Karn is one of my favorite parts of the quest.

>>4428590
honestly the karn and frieza dynamic being this weird unique singularity across all of space and time is probably one of my favorite things as well. All things considered i think frieza might actually end up even stronger then canon by the time Battle of Gods goes down and that will be something to witness.

You think Kuriza and Karn Jr. would make good friends?

>>4428690
>>4428691
Shouldn't be. Why do you think so?

Brainstorm new FLEET DESTRUCTION tactics before the next session.
Here’s my ideas, not necessarily used together.
>Karn ITs ginyu, as stealthily as possible, onto a warship. Possibly the most important one we can find. Ginyu steals a body as he is inclined to do, and intentionally fucks with their orders. The swapped soldier is IT’d back to the lucrehulk for disposal and or interrogation.
>Key fighters disperse out into strategic positions, properly equipped with what they need to survive space. Karn teleports extra units to them, allowing lucrehulk forces to surround the fleet rather than only swarming in from the hulk’s direction. Tricky but potentially large payoff and doesn’t allow them to itbait karn easily.
>Karn plays defensively, using foresight and super barrier to protect the lucrehulk from shots and long range telekinesis to use covenant warships against each other.
>Karn asks Arctus if his energy can be used to supercharge the lucrehulk’s systems safely. If it can then its potentially worthwhile, but if not then at least we know.
>Karn telepathically contacts raven and has her take karn jr home because a space battle is no place for a baby
>Karn and Meloka tag team this shit because its been a while, assuming she’s good to go by then.

>>4428888
Bruh they expect us to be dead, just Final Flash the biggest Corvettes and half the fleet is gone.

>>4428558
>And that’s it for tonight, everyone have fun?
I do for sure.
This Arbiter has been a though enemy, but Karn made it anyway. Very nice. Though I was suspecting some dirty tactic from Covenant, the bomb surprised me.

>>4428590
>I hope we meet up with Frieza to get a bit of his perspective on what went down.
I would like this too.

>>4428682
>Every once in a while I remember the puzzle box. It haunts me.
Maybe after the war is over and Karn will have some free time he could try to solve it. Nothing that could limit the training time, but maybe just try to do something with the box everyday for a few minutes before getting into bed?
Now that you reminded this I'm very curious what this prototype that should be in the box is.

>>4428690
>Isn’t whatever’s in it useless to us now?
I don't think it's useless.
Quote from pastebin "https://pastebin.com/iPAJeGJn":
>Seamless black box made by Daiko’s predecessor. Contains the late scientist’s final prototype, and he’d left behind a riddle for opening it. So far none have been able to open it,
It has to be something of significance since he put an effort to lock it in this box. It prevents some random anybody from getting it, there is probably reason for this.

>>4428888
>Karn ITs ginyu, as stealthily as possible, onto a warship. Possibly the most important one we can find. Ginyu steals a body as he is inclined to do, and intentionally fucks with their orders. The swapped soldier is IT’d back to the lucrehulk for disposal and or interrogation.
Would Ginyu want to leave his current strong body?
Also his new stolen body would probably be worse the one he would leave behind.
This whole thing might work, but Ginyu Force without Ginyu present would not be operating at their full potential. I think this would hinder them, and perhaps it would be best to have the Ginyu Force doing things as best as they can.

Also Covenant might be getting desperate and try to do something reckless. Maybe it would be a good idea to lift the Lucrehulk from the planet's surface back into space.
>If they get pressured enough they might try to even destroy (blow up) whole Sanghelios in their last-ditch effort to end us with the planet.
Sangheili would probably hate that to happen, but it's the San'Shyuum who are in charge, so better be prepared for this possibility.

After this Tunnip leaves, saying she needs to finish some preparations and leaving you alone with your wife and youngest son. And before you can say anything else about what happened, she begins talking.

“When you...When the bomb went off, Bardock told me what happened.” she says, your wife looking down at her hands. “You telling him to stay back saved him from ending up just like you did. So he could tel me, and I was able to Instant Transmission down, and teleport you back here to the ship. But how? How could they do that to one of their own?”
“They want me dead, at all costs.” you tell her. “No matter what depths they have to sink to, and how many of their own they have to sacrifice, no price was too high for my head. Which I’m sure that price has only gone up.”
“The sooner we end this war, the better.” Meloka says, your wife setting Karn Jr on the bed and rising to her feet. “And tomorrow, I’ll show them what happens when the try and take my husband away from me.”
“Are you sure you should be fighting?” you ask, Meloka raising a single brow at you. “Have you recovered enough yet?”
“Look who’s talking.” she replies, crossing her arms defiantly. “You were the one almost dead yesterday, not me. Besides, Dr. White already cleared me to return to active duty, and even said he’ll watch over our son during the fighting.”

“I’ll sure be glad to have you watching my back again.” you say, hugging your wife again. That said, you still have however long is left of today to prepare.

But what will you do first?

First things first, you need to find Freeza. Your friend clearly took the news of what happened to you badly, so you need to find him.

“Let’s check in with Freeza first.” you say, Meloka just nodding in agreement.
“AAAaaaa.” Karn Jr says, you patting his head before the two of you quickly get dressed. And to your surprise, instead of donning her gi, Meloka once more puts on her armor. No doubt to make a statement, and say that she’s back to anyone who sees her. Once dressed Meloka picks up your blonde son, and the three of you leave the room. Focusing your ki sense you reach out, searching for his massive energy signature. Which isn’t too hard to find, considering just how powerful he is. So you make your way outside the Lucrehulk, Freeza floating over the ship and watching as at Arctus’s command the Battle Droids are being unloaded.

“Hey, Freeza!” you call, your friend turning as you and Meloka quickly ascend to him. “There you are. So, what’d I miss?”

And to your surprise Freeza doesn’t say anything, instead flying right up to you, then before you can react grabs you tight. His hug is so sudden you weren’t prepared for it, shocking you for several seconds.

“Don’t you dare worry me like that again.” Freeza whispers. “I thought we’d lost you for good this time.”
“Hey, how was I to know they’d turned their most powerful soldier into a suicide bomber?” you ask him, then also at a whisper. “But I have it on good time authority that the Covenant are unable to duplicate it.”
“Is that so?” he asks, pulling back and looking you over. “Despite what your Dr. White said, you seem to have recovered far faster than anticipated.”
“Wait, faster?” you ask, now your turn to be confused. “I was down for two days, and you’re saying that was fast?”
“He’d told us a week.” Freeza replies, you turning to Meloka who nods along, confirming. “Whatever that bomb was, when Meloka’d brought you to the ship, your internal organs were still smoldering and burning. Had we taken much longer to get you in there, you may not have lived at all. But enough about such macabre topics, now, who’s this?”

“AAAaaaaAAA!” Karn Jr says, smiling at the emperor and waving his arms wildly.
“Oh, right, this is Karn Jr.” you say, your son looking between you and Freeza curiously.
“Hold on, that hair. Those eyes. Could it be?” he asks, looking between you three as if this is some sort of joke.
“No joke.” Meloka says, your friend’s eyes going wide. “He was born a Super Saiyan.”

“Well well well, that’s certainly a first.” Freeza says, reaching out and running a hand over your son’s head. “Your son is clearly someone special.”
“That he is.” you say, smiling down at his innocent joy. You really can’t wait to see what kind of man he grows up to be.

But what now?

So we healed faster than anticipated? anyone know why/how?

>>4429203
I suspect it's involved with the crater/planet.

>>4429187
>Go visit the crater

>>4429203
No I'm not sure.
Perhaps it is connected to the improved Ki Manipulation. Ki Energy flows better through Karn, and maybe it heals Karn more passively.

Also I think Anon>>4429199 is right.
It could be good to find out what mystery draws Karn to that place. That's why I changed my vote to it.

You and Freeza talk a little longer, but you fee there is more to do. So you excuse yourself, telling him you’ll be ready for the battle tomorrow.

“Ohoho, if there are any left by the time I’m done with them.” he says, you shaking hands before taking off. Not sure where you’re going you fly around, trying to see if you recognize what you’re looking for. But after ten or so minutes, and flying completely around the planet, you begin feeling a bit frustrated.
“What are you looking for hun?” Meloka asks, you turning to her.
“The crater.” you tell her seriously. “Where I-I just need to see it.”
“Uhh, sure?” she replies uncertainly, leading you onwards. After a minute or so you come upon a relatively small crater, but it’s what’s around it that’s surprising. All around the blast area, what was desert has been blasted into a strange greenish, glass-like substance. “Here.”
“Woah.” is all you can say, and feeling an odd pull slowly descend down to the ground. Landing on the unfamiliar glass, which looks and feels somewhat different than the results of their glassing cannons, you lay your left hand flat against the glass. There’s a strange warmth to it, the sensation feeling almost like- wait. Something’s missing. “Meloka. When you came and got me, then put me in the healing pod, did you find the Bloodstone?”

“Huh?” she asks you, confused. “Now that you mention it, no. Why?”
“Because I think I just found it.” you say, channeling a bit of your emerald Super Saiyan power into the ground. The what you’d thought was glass begins to glow, the entire crystallized ring radiating with unbelievable power. But as it does, you feel that same energy radiating out from your left forearm. Pulling off your vambrace, you see the same green energy radiating out from a point in your forearm. It looks almost like the crystal was blasted into your arm from the blast, yet it’s now glowing the same emerald as the crystal beneath your feet. You stop channeling your energy into it, and the glow shortly fades, leaving your arm looking the same as always.

“AAAA! AaaaAAAAAA!!” Karn Jr says, your son clumsily clapping as Meloka simply stares at you, jaw agape.
“Woah.” is all she can say, clearly sensing the same enormous stockpile of energy you do. With this much raw power here at your fingertips, there’s no telling what you could do with it.
“Karn, what the hell’s going on over here?!” Vegeta asks, the king and Nappa flying over in their Ascended forms while Bardock is at Super Saiyan 3. “Did you feel that just now? That enormous surge of energy? What the hell’s going on?”

Well?

“I figured out where the Bloodstone went.” you say, transforming into your normal Ascended form in a burst of green sparks. Once more you touch the energy from the stone now embedded in your arm, and the entire field of crystal begins glowing again. “Hey, Meloka. You think this’ll be enough power?”
“Enough power?” she asks you, confused. “Enough for what?”

https://youtube.com/watch?v=5s9xI_D7qhU

“For me to reach your level, of course.” you reply, spreading your feet to take a more solid, balanced stance. Her eyes to wide as she immediately understands what you’re talking about, leaping back well outside the crystals on the ground. Everyone else leaps back as well, except for surprisingly King Vegeta. He simply crosses his arms, smirking and staring you in the face.

“You really think you’re going to ascend to the next level?” he asks you, cape billowing out behind him as your own energy begins surging. You can barely hear him over the energy surging up around you, but that doesn’t stop him. In fact he steps forward, clenching his fist in front of you in challenge. “Then show me! Step beyond your limits, right here and now! And show the entire universe why they should fear the Saiyans race!”

“GGRRRRRRRRYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!” you roar, reaching down into that enormous well of power sealed inside the crystal beneath your feet. You try and channel it up into yourself, but the gigantic rock is somehow resisting you! It actually begins pulling your own energy down into itself, trying to drain you of your energy. Snarling you clench your fists and teeth tighter, and begin pulling against the crystal’s massive influence. It feels like you’re trying to lift the entire planet, a-near impossible task. It actually begins pulling you down, your knees almost buckling under the pressure. “GYAAH!!”

“Don’t you DARE give up now!!” Vegeta shouts, you somehow hearing him over the energy washing over you. “You hear me?! Every single person here is counting on you, to surpass your limits and reach even higher levels! Do you want to be stuck behind me forever? Or are you going to fight, win, and regain your place as the number one Saiyan?”

“RRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!” you roar, surging back upright as his words spark something within you. You’re NOT losing here, to this rock. You will surpass it, and become stronger than ever before!! Redoubling your resolve you dig deep, pulling out all the stops as you tear this energy from the ground. As you do you feel something within you snap, a barrier you’d never even noticed before falling before this sudden surge of power. “GRRRYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”

All sense of the outside world vanishes, leaving only you and this massive rock beneath your feet. You can feel it still trying to drain you, to take your energy as it’s own, but you’re stronger now. Whatever broke inside you was only holding you back, now is the time to show it what you can really do! Almost by instinct you raise your left fist, and with a roar slam it down as hard as you can.

“HRRRRYAAAAAAAA!!” you bellow, striking the crystal with your full Ascended Super Saiyan power.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=ovQC32AKAnU

As your strike lands you feel the crystal break, it shattering under the pressure of trying to resist you. And as it breaks, so too does it’s hold over that stockpile of energy. Suddenly that storm of ki begins flooding your body, and what was once a war cry is now a scream of agony. Once more your body is reminded of what it’d just recovered from but it’s too late to stop this now. Your head and throat feel like they’re on fire, arms and legs trembling as you try and contain the power surging through you. Your entire body feels like it’s about to give out, to be torn to shreds, but suddenly it’s over. Your screaming stops, and everything goes still. You look down at your hands, which look the same to you as the dust cloud begins to settle. But before it does, you notice the giant crystal beneath you has shattered. What was once a single, massive crystal has been crakced, shattered into thousands of pieces. But in one small piece you can see your reflection, long green hair flowing down behind your shoulders.

“Karn? You okay hun?” Meloka calls out into the dust. You don’t even move in response, simply flaring your aura a moment to blast the dust cloud away. As it clears you see your allies shocked faces, everyone staring at you surprised. Well, everybody except for one.
“Super Saiyan Three.” King Vegeta says, the king quitw a bit further away from you than you remember. But he’s still by far the closest, smirking at you and holding a ball of ki in his hand. “So, you actually did it. I wouldn’t expect anything less from you. Now, let’s say we test out this new power of yours?”

And as he shouts he tosses the ball of ki high, your gaze remaining fixed on him as he clenches his fist.

“Now! Burst open and mix!!”

And that’s it for this weekend, everyone enjoy the ride? Ready to see just how powerful Karn’s newfound Super Saiyan 3 is compared to Vegeta’s Golden Oozaru form? Curious what else the Covenant could possibly have in store for you now? All this and more, next time on Saiyan Conqueror Quest!

>>4429369
EVEN FURTHER BEYOND!
Nice.
>>4429370
Pretty good, I'm glad I got that crit earlier even if it went south afterwards. Also, what was the arbiter's stand name?

so is this beserker 3 or am I misunderstanding?

>>4429383
Legendary 3. We are not getting a form thats almost as strong as SSG for a long while.

>>4429370
That was amazing, rip the blood crystal for it though. Also I bet even whis and beerus felt that one.

>>4429389
>Beerus
Still asleep I guess.
But I guess everyone else, even those in a different time would be able to feel this.

okay thats cool. though I am fairly sure beserker 3 is still a fair margin away from gods strength since ssg is probably stronger or at least as strong as primal.

>>4429394
honestly berserker 3 is probably not far from primal all things considered.

>>4429373
It took the Arbiter out of the fight, that’s for sure.
>>4429383
Not Berserker 3, just ‘normal’ 3.
>>4429389
>rip
Well, you still have it. It’s just inside you, and all over the field now. Whis certainly noticed it, because he’s been keeping an eye on you.

<<4429398
legendary super saiyan 3 is 800x base
beserker 3 is 2400x base
primal saiyan is 4000x base
so its a diffference of 1600x base

by the way when we win not if as I'm feeling confident and absolutely nothing could ever go wrong. I want a magic user we like and maybe aku eventually to look over the crater crystals and have them study them. Also maybe some scientist too.

>>4429411
Could be a good form of homework for Chili.

And her arm. Spoilered for the sake of the squeamish

>>4429523
huh, I wanted to try to guess where the fracture was but the wrist swelling makes both sides of the wrist look off. Is it the distal radius? Is she at least getting decent zenkais from these wrecks?

>Not Berserker 3, just ‘normal’ 3.
So before my hype turns into the greatest salt pile ever seen, do we atleast not need to jump through a dozen fucking hoops to get Berserker 3 besides the God Ritual, or was this just a massive waste of hype because of how fucking useless Legendary 3 is?

Stay mad, 3 has always been great and Meloka proved it can be reliable with some effort.

>>4429612
I mean Meloka did just spend an entire pregnancy in 3 nonstop so whatever and shit.

>>4429663
And it resulted in a Super Sayian Baby, the first even Fu had ever heard of.

>>4429549
Dunno yet, have to wait and see.

Currently that form clocks in at 19,351,200,000. For comparison, Karn’s Ascended Berserker is 14,513,400,000, making 3 your current strongest form.
>>4429612
Any form is good if you’re willing to put in the work. See Goku vs Cell.
>>4429663
And she hasn’t reverted back yet. Her body’s fully acclimated to the form now, and can hold it as her new base.
>>4429678
Karn Jr’s future is certainly bright

I don't give a fuck about the power increase it offers. I CARE about the actions that would be put into training it, aren't going to be put into PL training for Berserker 3 or Emerald Oozaru. Thats why the form is fucking worthless.

We're a good 70 Million off from being able to hold Primal Berserker, and thats probably a good guess for Berserker God too, we need to be focusing on the forms that will get us to our end goal, and training to best use those forms.

Not this useless as fuck dead end that is Legendary 3.

>>4429692
Are you literally brain dead? We need to get accustomed to Legendary 3, and it’s drain and any other issues, before we can use Berserker 3. On top of that, it’ll likely help with dealing with other sources of huge drain, like, I don’t know, LSS4 and Berserker 4?

That has never been said anywhere.

That has never been said anywhere either. Both of those are baseless assumptions.

What we KNOW is that the 3/Ape/Primal Forms need a Base PL in order to maintain them, your body needs to adapt to the stress of the trasformation*, and that Ki control can help the issue. Thats all we know.

If that bullshit was right, Nappa, Vegeta, and everyone else going Golden Oozaru would have gone 3 first, rather then just Bardock doing who has the highest PL of any saiyan bar Karn and Meloka.

*And no, this doesn't mean you have a point, because their is a vaaaaaaaaast difference between a X800 Power Multiplier with the Legendary 3, and X2400 Berserker 3 which litterally alters our body to handle the power, which also goes Emerald Oozaru and Primal Berserker.

>>4429711
It’s really simple. The stronger a transformation you’re used to holding, the easier holding a higher power one is. It’s literally the same reason it’s easier to use Super Saiyan 2 if you master Super Saiyan 1 first. The issue with using things like Berserker 3 and Primal, isn’t control, it’s being able to hold the form down. Vegeta, who’s been training Primal nonstop, can’t even hold it properly. And sure, base powerlevel helps with that as well, but this is another way to help with that and potentially increase our energy control simultaneously.

>>4429679
>And she hasn’t reverted back yet. Her body’s fully acclimated to the form now, and can hold it as her new base.
Alright, but can she use the power of it in her actual base?

>>4429692
Mastering it will make Berserker 3 much, much easier to handle later on down the road.
>>4429711
If I somehow haven’t made it explicit enough before in other threads, let me clarify. Each transformation you gain full control over makes learning the next, more-powerful one easier. They aren’t necessary, but each one makes the next easier. Best example is Gohan, when Super Saiyan became as a base form he then unlocked the next form when pushed.
>If that bullshit was right, Nappa, Vegeta, and everyone else going Golden Oozaru would have gone 3 first, rather then just Bardock doing who has the highest PL of any saiyan bar Karn and Meloka.
Two problems with this assumption right off the bat. First, do THEY know that? And two, they’re trying for a different path. They don’t have the option of Berserker 3 that you will, so for them it actually would be a transformational dead end to pursue 3. Unless there’s something beyond 3 for a normal Super Saiyan...
>>4429805
No, because 3 is essentially her body’s baseline now. Better question, can she go back to base? Or has her body fully acclimated to the transformed state so well that powering down actually requires more effort than simply maintaining it?

Oh fuck that can happen...what about Karn Jr.?
How close are our Super Saiyan students to unlocking the intermediate Super Saiyan transformations like Ultra and whatnot.
Also don't forget to update the pastebin when you get a chance.

>>4429711
Dude we got a transformation with no training actions, stop looking at the gift horse in the mouth cuz this is as good as it gets for a while.
We can train both mastery and PL, it just won't give as much gains unless we find a better training method.
>>4429811
There you go, that's what I wanted to hear.
> Unless there’s something beyond 3 for a normal Super Saiyan...
That's cryptic...
>Better question, can she go back to base?
I think we won't be seeing Meloka's eyebrows ever again.
Why is that only a problem with 3?
