Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

After his kids appeared, fresh from their own war against the Hive, Karn teleported everyone to Freeza’s side. Lord Freeza revealed his most daring attack plan yet: using Kira’s Stand, you will be mounting a direct attack against High Charity itself with backup from the Black Dragons, led by Kano. After learning of the plan Karn took his kids to his quarters, then reminded of the words he spoke earlier challenged Raditz. And the boy, no, the man rose to the challenge, proving himself and pushing past his limits for Chaya. After taking him to the healing pods Karn spoke with the Saiyan he’d saved, and gave him advice. Then after a relaxing evening and uneventful night Karn awoke, and as we rejoin him we find ourselves working off some nervous energy in the early hours of the morning.

“Nine hundred ninty eight. Nine hundred ninty nine. One thousand.” you say, counting down your set of vertical pushups. And as you finish the last one fall towards your back, curling yourself into a roll that brings you easily back onto your feet. Walking over to the chamber you prepare to shut it down, when suddenly from the doorway you hear something. So instead of dropping the fifty times New Salda gravity you leave it up as a defense against a possible attack. But your paranoia was unwarranted, as you see none other than Lord Freeza himself in his fourth form walking in. “Hey.”

“Up early, I see.” he says, looking you over. “Or perhaps you haven’t slept yet either?”
“Nah, I’ve only been up a little bit.” you reply. “You okay?”
“Hmmm? Oh, I’m fine.” he replies, waving off your concern. “I can go days without sleep if necessary. But how about yourself? Our success today hinges on how well you can battle their jailers’ Stands.”
“Wait, they have-?” you start, but as you think through it a moment realize that of course they would. Only a Stand user could safely imprison another Stand user, and even then it would come down to their specific abilities. “Well, that makes things more complicated.”

“More difficult, perhaps, but not more complicated.” Freeza says to you. “Our objective is simple: kill them all. The jailers, their soldiers, whoever stands between us and their so-called Prophets. Especially Truth. We end him, and we end this war for good.”


Well, what now?

“I’m not planning on dying today.” you tell him, sitting down cross legged as you even out your breathing. “But I do need to focus on getting ready on this. I’m sure whatever they’ve got is unpredictable, and I have to be ready for anything.”
“Of course, I’ll leave you to it.” he says, walking back towards the door. But he stops and glances back, as if he wants to say something else, then turns back and walks out of the gravity chamber. You then turn your focus inward, towards that presence that exists almost-exclusively in your own mind. And a moment later he appears, standing before you. However, instead of his usual attire of black robes and cloak, today he’s displaying some sort of chitinous armor. They look almost organic, the shells varying in size from your closed fist to the size of your head, and seemingly cover everything but his hands, feet, and head.

“You must be nervous, if you are consulting me on this matter.” he says by way of greeting. “But I know little of these Stands you battle with. I can only see your own through my connection to you, after all. I cannot watch your back during this battle.”
“It’s not that, I’m confident I can handle any of the enemy head-on.” you tell him, speaking aloud despite having no need to as he’s in your mind. It just helps you think clearer. “But its these Black Dragons. I don’t trust them.”
“Mercenaries haven’t changed, even from my own time.” he says, you noting a hint of distaste in his voice. “They go where the getting’s good, and are the first to abandon a ship when it’s taking on water. To ensure their loyalty, you have two options: bribery or fear.”
“What do you mean?” you ask, unsure of exactly what he means by that.

“Ensuring the loyalty of paid guns can be done only one of two ways.” he says, speaking no doubt from experience. “Either you make the reward more than double the worth of their risk, so they won’t dare give up easily. Or you can make them fear you. Remember, mercenaries are guns for hire, not soldiers with dedication to your cause, so they will run at the first sign of real danger. Weak men do foolish things, but the one thing they won’t do is face what they perceive as certain death when there’s another out. Make achieving your goals a vastly safer option than having to face your wrath, and they’ll take the easy way out every time.”

“I don’t know.” you say, still uncertain. “There’s just something about their leader, that Kano. His people are dedicated to him, and wouldn’t hesitate to attack whoever he points to.”
“Then I suggest you ensure he’s loyal to you.” Bane replies. “Or at least don’t leave him your back.”

“Charismatic leaders with a following are some of the hardest to deal with.” Bane continues. “With their trust in him so absolute, on the other hand, you don’t have to worry as much. They won’t dare disobey their cherished leader. So convince him, through whatever means, that you are the safer path for him and his people than the alternative. Do that, and he’ll see you through this battle.”

“Hun, you okay?” Meloka’s thought suddenly enters your mind as she reaches out telepathically. “Nothing wrong, is there?”
“No, everything’s fine.” you tell her, rising back to your feet. “I just couldn’t sleep, so I got a quick workout in to get warmed up.”
“Okay. Breakfast is ready, if you’re hungry.”
“I’ll be up there in a bit.” you reply, Bane smirking at you a bit as he stands there. “Just gonna finish up down here first.”
“Don’t take too long, or there won’t be any left. The kids are really digging in.” she thinks to you, ending the mental link. You turn towards the door, but don’t make it a couple steps before the ancient Sith calls out to you.

“Karn.” he says, and for the first time in awhile see him hesitate a moment before speaking. “There may be something else I can do for you. Despite not being one of these Stand users myself, perhaps I can still assist you.”
“Assist me? How?” you ask him. You may need whatever edge he can provide you in this fight.
“While in this form, my ability to affect the world is rather limited.” he says, reaching out towards your hand. And you feel it, faint but there, as he tries to slowly lift your arm. But you fight against it, almost without conscious thought and resist his efforts. “But this pale shade is simply that. A shade of what remains. Take up my holocron. Take it with you, then I can summon my corporeal body to assist you in battle. And together, we can crush your foes and drink their despair.”

Well? What will you do?

Really tough choice, we want to reduce the amount of variables for stuff that can go wrong, but Bane might be just the ace in the hole that we need if that vision starts to come to pass.
Anyways, I like the write in, and I doubt the threat will piss him off too badly. He'll probably respect it as the sort of thing he would do.

“You know...” you say, pondering it a moment. That old Sith is a vicious killer, and would no doubt greatly enjoy slaughtering Covenant forces. But despite your time with him, he’s still an unknown factor here. If an enemy grabs the holocron from you, he may decide to help them instead of you. But his abilities are well-suited to battling an enemy unfamiliar with what he can do. And that lightning, you still remember how debilitating that attack was. His power could make all the difference in this all-important battle. “I’ll take you up on that offer. You’re in.”

“Excellent. It’s been too long since I’ve bathed in the fear of the weak.” Bane says, a cruel grin breaking out on his face. “This will be quite entertaining. But I’ll say this: once I’m summoned, I will only be able to keep my physical form for a short time. And if the enemy are able to somehow damage my corporeal form enough to disperse it, it will be some time before I’m able to rebuild it. So use my power wisely.”
“I will.” you reply, Bane nodding once and vanishing. That decided you deactivate the gravity chamber, opening the door for whoever wants to use it next. You wash up in the attached shower unit, air dry yourself mostly dry then with a moment’s focus vanish. One instant you’re standing in the doorway, and the next you’re standing beside Meloka in your common area’s mess. “Hey hun, any left for me?”
“I saved you a bit.” she replies, you digging in to a small plate of something delicious. It’s some sort of gamey meat wapped in sweet breading, you devouring it all down in less than a minute. Not enough to really fill you up, but sometimes going into battle hungry makes you that much more vicious.

After getting a quick bite you return to your bedroom, undressing out of your still-damp training clothes and getting dressed for war. You put your armor on, sling both of your weapons across your back, then turn to the bedside table. Sitting there unassumingly is the ancient Sith holocron, it’s red and gold decorative exterior making it seem little more than a bauble one’d collect on their journeys. But you walk over and gently pick it up in your left hand, your hand nearly onscuring it completely. Best to not show your hand early.

“You’re taking that with you?” Chilli asks, you turning around and seeing your son standing there and looking up to you curiously. “You know there’s a malicious spirit trapped in there, right?”

Well now, how do you answer that?
>Of course. I’m taking him to fight with me, since he can’t die
>Ask Chilli how he knew Bane was in there?

I don't know what you mean. I'm not combining a post. It's a write-in.
Chilli's question was “You know there’s a malicious spirit trapped in there, right?”
So the write-in would be the response to it, which is obviously meant to address the spirit as the subject.

“Wait, you-right, you were probably taught about spirits and stuff by Raven, right?” you ask, Chilli giving you a nod. “Did Raven, or the late Guardian ever tell you about Holocrons?"
“Wait, that thing’s a holocron too?” he asks, brows furrowing. “I thought they were all dodecahedrons, like the G-!”

And while talking, suddenly his eyes go wide and he covers his mouth with both hands.

“Chilli, you okay?” you ask, your son nodding once sharply. “Something wrong?”
“Raven asked me not to tell anyone.” he says, then to you telepathically. “But she has a holocron too.”
“I’ll have to ask her about mine, when we get back.” you say to him. “Well, anyways, this guy’s Bane. He's the one that's been teaching me Djem So, and some of his other techniques. He wants to come out and kick some ass with us, being stuck in a pyramid that can only invade peoples heads gets boring apparently. Speaking of, he tried to get in your head awhile back, or do you not remember?”

“Of course I remember.” he says, sounding a little annoyed. “And I obliterated it’s presence when it tried to invade my mind. Which is why I asked Raven about it.”
“Anyways, its good your here.” you say, changing the subject. You talked with him before, about how he obtained that spine-chilling tome you saw before, but you know there has to be more to it than that. “I know I don't have much room to talk, holding this holocron here, but who gave you that book of yours? And, more importantly, what was the price? Nothing that powerful is ever free.”
“I got it from The Forgotten Scribe.” he says, snapping his left hand’s fingers. As he does that book simply appears, and as he touches it his hand and forearm once more appear skeletal. “After I fixed Chaya’s sword, he somehow brought me into his realm. I get this book and all the magic inside as long as I keep killing undead, and those that summon them.”

“Those ancient magics are not a toy to be wielded by children.” Bane says, appearing beside you once more decked out in his armor. And to your surprise, levels a hand at your son with lightning dancing through his fingertips. “Dare not take such dangerous, primal forces lightly, boy. You know not what you do.”
“I know enough to recognize an undead lingering past his time.” Chilli says, drawing his sword from over his shoulder. And as he draws the blade slightly luminous pale crystals begin sprouting out along it’s length. “Now get back inside your defiant little prison, or face oblivion.”

For several seconds neither moves, the only sounds are of the sparks dancing in Bane’s fingertips. Then to your surprise Bane moves first, lowering his hand and ending the sparks as he smirks.

“Should you ever seek true power, abandon that old fool’s endless duty and join me.” Bane tells him, his body slowly disappearing from the feet up. “There is much I could teach one such as you.”
“Hey, listen to me.” you say, the Sith turning towards you. “I’m interested in fighting with you alongside me, but I’ll be warching you. And if you try and betray me, I’ll erase you myself.”
“You ever betray my dad, or hurt my family, and I’ll make sure you’ll suffer until the end of time.” Chilli says, getting the last word in just before the ancient Sith’s form vanishes completely.
“I think he likes you.” you say after a moment’s akward silence, you son’s jaw dropping a bit at your casual dismissal of the whole thing before he just starts laughing. You laugh as well, letting the tension in your shoulders relax as Chilli disappears the book and re-sheathes his sword. Crystals shatter and drop to the ground, vanishing within seconds after being seperated from his sword. You then remember he didn’t leave with a sword, and are about to ask him about it, when it happens.

“Everyone, it’s time.” Freeza thinks to you and more than a dozen other people simultaneously. Including Chilli, you both nodding to each other once then make your way back downstairs.
“Everybody ready?” you ask, your old crew looking confused but everyone in the know looking ready to go. Especially Caulifla, wait. She didn’t have those bottles when she came through the portal yesterday, did she?
“Here! Momma, Daddy, I got you each one.” she says, handing both of you a small, delicate looking stoppered glass vial. “I can’t be there to patch you up, but take these! They can fix you right up, no matter what kinda damage you take!”
“Those things work really great.” Chaya says. “But how do you keep getting them?”
“People give them to me sometimes when I help them out!” she says, you noticing the pendant she got from the underground M’lurnian ruins on New Salda. Seems that she’s still traveling time and helping people, and being rewarded with ample treasures. “I got two last night, here take them!”
“Thanks kiddo.” you say, taking the vial. It’s surprisingly heavy, and doesn’t feel fragile in your hands. So you loosen your tail around your waist, just enough to slide it between tail and armor then ruffle your daughter’s hair. “I appreciate you lookin’ out for your old man.”

“Is that everyone?” Meloka asks, you nodding to her after scanning the group. Then without a word she brings her hand to her forehead, and you all are teleported back to that training room. You all appear next to Freeza, Arctus, and King Vegeta, along with more than a dozen of his Royal Guards in their Super Saiyan forms. This is it.

But as you look around, something doesn’t feel right. Vegeta’s Royal Guard are all spaced evenly apart around the chamber, except to your left. There two guards are standing quite a ways apart, nearly spaced enough for a third to be standing between them. Anf on a hunch you open your ki senses, and sure enough there’s another powerlevel there. A rather high powerlevel at that, nearly twice as strong as the other guardsmen. Yet before you can really react Vegeta thinks directly to you.

“Galick’s there, don’t blow his cover.” he tells you telepathically. “He’s in one of the experimental stealth suits the team’s been working on. Made with the splitjaw’s own tech, if anyone tries acting up he’ll put them down.”
“Good thinking.” you say aloud, nodding to the king before addressing Freeza. “We’re here. Let’s do this.”
“Let us begin.” he says, then addresses the Black Dragon woman directly. “Kira, if you would.”
“Traveling Man, let’s go.” she says, her Stand appearing in the middle of the room. You watch it’s shadow, and it quickly transforms into a portal to another place. Almost as soon as her portal’s complete, several people begin walking up and out of it, shielding their eyes against the bright light of the sealed training room.

“Welcome to the Lucrehulk, proud flagship of the PTO’s fleet.” Freeza says, stepping forward and addressing the half-dozen people calmly. “You are now under our hospitality, so I expect you all to behave yourselves while I’m gone. If not, well...Caulifla? Chilli?”

And without a word your son unleashes his magic, encasing all six of them from the waist down in crystal within two seconds. Each one summons a Stand in response, but look around confused as the only other Stand they can see is Caulifla’s.

“KIIIIIIIIIII!!” it caws, belching a column of fire over their heads.
“Then you answer to us.” Chilli tells them, again holding that spellbook for effect. And it clearly works, all six of the Black Dragons not going to war with you seeming sufficiently intimidated by your children.
“Behave yourselves guys, I’ll be back with the boss soon as we end that bastard Truth.” she says, Freeza not waiting and walking through the portal confidently. You and Meloka follow Freeza into High Charity, after your wife hands Karn Jr to Arctus. You walk into the hole, stepping out just behind Freeza and across from a few other Black Dragons you recognize from your previous visit. King Vegeta follows a moment later, Kira bringing up the rear and ending her Stand’s effect. “Alright boss, this is everyone. Let’s do this.”

“First thing’s first, we gotta get outta this cell.” he says, gesturing to the bars. “Don’t suppose you lot got a key?”

Meloka walks up to where the key lock is, floats up level to it, and with a quick “HAAAA!” and a swift jab snaps the lock’s bar. On fact she hits it hard enough that the door flies right off it’s hinges, smashing into the empty cell across the room.

“Well, ‘at’s one way.” he says, drawing his knife in his right hand as his twin Black Dragons coil around his arms. “Alroight, let’s move. We got maybe ten, twelve seconds ‘fore they’ll be checkin’ that sound. Now, what’s the plan?”

Focusing on your ki sense you can feel four approaching energy signatures, two each from the left and the right of the door. So you draw your sword, and pass it to your left hand while bringing your right up to your forehead.

“Which two do you want, left or right?” you ask her, feeling the Black Dragons’s stares on your back as you transform into your Super Saiyan form. Meloka turns to you, drawing her ki blade in her left as she mirrors you.
“I’ll take the left.” she replies, you nodding to her and focusing. “On my mark, three, two, one.”
“Go.” you both say simultaneously, while using your Instant Transmission. You appear behind a pair of creatures, one a Sangheili and one a metal-seeming humanoid. And before they even know what’s happening, you swing. The splitjaw never even knew what happened, your blade biting into it’s neck and coming out below it’s right shoulder in a spray of blood. But as your swing continues suddenly it stops, crashing against that metal armor with a resounding clang.

“What the-?” the metal being says, your powerful blow staggering the metal man. As he takes a quick balancing step he turns, revealing a normal-seeming humanoid’s face inside the bulky suit of armor. “Oh shit! You’re the guy, that Saiyan!”
“HAAAA!!” you roar, twisting with the recoil from your strike to slam a ki-clad fist square into his face. Yet whatever armor he’s wearing seems able to protect his unarmored face too, as you see when the smoke around his head from your attack thins. “What?”
“You can’t kill Za Metaru!” he says confidently throwing an almost slow-motion punch at you. Which is laughably easy to dodge, you gripping your sword in both hands and smashing it with your full power under his arm. Yet the man’s armor holds, and this time your blow doesn’t even budge the metal man. “Za Metaru is much to strong, even for you! You may have killed the Arbiter, but I am unkillable!”
“So that armor’s your Stand, huh?” you say, taking a single step back out of his slow punches’ range. “Tch, how annoying.”

Well? How do you respond?

What if it's the most literal interpretation of the song? We might have to just Kars this guy.

>>4591777
I was thinking that but I don't fancy trying to lift him up and toss him seeing as the weight at least looks literal. Much rather we try this then Su Ma flip him into coming down on his neck. He either dies, disperses his stand or gets turtled with a broken neck. Should work out well for us

“Huh. I gotta admit, your Stand’s one of the toughest I’ve seen.” you say, raising your right hand. And reaching out with your mind, reach past his stand, and even his neck, and grab onto his throat itself. “But are you strong?”

As soon as you finish speaking you squeeze your hand, cutting off the Stand user’s air flow. He tries to speak but can’t, reaching up towards his neck in a futile attempt to somehow pry away your grip. But it’s useless, the armored man taking an unsteady step towards you. But you simply take a single step back, matching his stride so he doesn’t get any closer to you. He tries taking another three steps, but on the fourth one stumbles. The Stand user trips and falls to the ground. He rolls around another moment or two, flailing desperately. But then he falls still.

“All too easy.” you say, turning back from him towards Meloka and her two she’d gone to kill. And killed them she did, both laying in several bloody pieces on the ground. Kano whistles as he sees Za Metaru lying still on the ground behind you, his stance shifting a bit away from you. “Alright Kano, which way?”
“Never thought I’d see that metal bastard fall.” he says, almost to himself before shaking his head. “The left path, let’s go.”
“Hold on. Karn, Kano, take point.” Freeza says, taking charge. Meloka, you and Erron Black take the rear. Make sure anyone who tries to sneak up on us dies, and make sure it’s painful. Everyone else, focus on protecting Kira. Her ability is our ticket off this station.”
“Take my left side.” you say to Kano, walking up towards Meloka as she moves to bring up the rear. “I’ll watch the right.”
“Why should I?” he asks, a challenging note in his voice. You feel the energy in the hallway shift, and take on a more dangerous edge as everyone looks to you two.
“This is your chance.” Bane tells you telepathically. “This could determine how these so-called Black Dragons see you, moving forward.”

Part of me wants to do a quick death beam and blast off one of his fingers. Quit being a stubborn prick Kano.

Actually could we fire one off and redirect it at the last second so he sees how close he came to dismemberment?

Here's the thing, you should never trust someone you just met. And you should never trust mercenaries. And you should never trust assassins. It's literally the trifecta of showing you're a naive dumbass. Which is exactly the kind of thing you'd expect a complete stranger mercenary assassin to try to take advantage of.

......your all fucking idiots.

>>4591951
That's the thing, it wasn't the fact it was the only none antagonist option, it was the most obviously irresponsible thing we could say in character. There is no reason to think that wasn't the trigger to get him to betray us. But now it's just a fact he's a whiny bitch in the middle of missions.

>>4591954

>>4591954

“Look. If you want our help, you have to do as we say. Since I’m here now, I can just use my Instant Transmission and take me and mine right back to my ship whenever we want.” you tell him, not advancing towards him but not backing down either. And with the musculature gained with your Berserker form, you absolutely tower over the man now. “When we're out of this damn shithole, you can brag for your men all you want. But until then just try and work with us since we're your only lifeline.”

Kano narrows his eyes at you, the tension ratcheting up another notch. But after a moment he sighs out, giving an almost-subtle gesture with a finger. You feel his people standing down as one, but don’t look away from the mercenary.

“Aight, I’ll follow ya lead. For now.” he says, taking up a position on the left side of the hallway. “Black Dragons, form up. Eyes open, don’t let anything past you. Tasia, you’re my second. Now, lead on, our gracious saviors.”
“Let us get moving.” Freeza says, ignoring the jab in Kano’s voice and cutting though the remaining tension easily enough. The mood quickly settles into a professional quiet, no one speaking but Freeza. “Others have no doubt heard that ruckus, let us advance. Kano, you know the way. Lead on.”
“Roight. Folla’ me.” he says, advancing down the hall. You all move with him, everyone doing their best to soften your footfalls. Except for Freeza, his feet making their unique sound on the ground. You don’t hear any of the Black Dragons’ footsteps, except for the one who’s wrapped himself in boulders. He calls you all to a stop at the first intersection, glancing out towards the left. And immediately ducks his head back around the corner. “Shit, get down!”

KABOOOOM

A massive explosion rocks the hallway, shrapnel flying wildly. You don’t have time to activate your Barrier, and simply shield your face with your left vambrace. And before the smoke can even begins to clear, you see something odd. A bright red, oblong orb is drifting through the smoke towards you.

“The hell?” you mutter, watching for a moment as it drifts closer. You then realize that that thing is probably what just exploded, and you have to do something!

But what do you do?

With perhaps only a moment to act, you focus your ki behind your eyes then fire it as a pair of powerful Eye Beams. The instant they connect with that red orb it explodes, your sight disappearing inside the blast. But you don’t lose focus, instead using your ki sense you find another pair of mid-level powerevels just around that corner. So you focus on them, as your twin beams fly through the space just between them. Then, before either can turn around, you redirect the beams. Each one turns abruptly, blasting back straight through the back of their heads and passing back by over your shoulders. You end the attack, turning towards where you’d seen Kano leap back moments ago.

“Kano, you alright?” you ask, seeing a woman with two unusual-seeming swords standing defensively over the leader of the Black Dragons.
“Ya can move now, Tasia.” he says, the woman taking a step towards where the blasts went off and standing between him and any potential danger. “I’m sure he already got ‘em.”
“Two potential users down.” you tell him, focusing your ki sense and trying to sense for any others. But you don’t feel anyone else nearby, the others no doubt keeping themselves clear of their wildly-destructive ally. Late wildly-destructive ally, that is. “We’re clear for a little bit.”

“That was Red Balloon.” Kano says, brow furrowed. “He’s one Truth likes to keep near himself as a bodyguard. If he’s down here...”
“Then Truth may have suspected you were turning coat.” Freeza says, who appears completely unconcerned with what just happened. In fact he doesn’t even have any of the dust kicked up from the blast on him, still looking spotless. “But no matter if he thinks he’s ready or not, our goal hasn’t changed. He dies, today.”
“If he knows we’re comin’, we don’t stand a snowball’s chance in ‘ell.” Kano says, shaking his head and turning to Kira. “Open another portal. If you fucks wanna die that’s your call, but I’d rather live.”

“Run away if you want. But do you have any idea what will happen to you if you do?” you hear Freeza ask, everyone including you turning towards him. “I left express orders with my cousin, and the General here’s children. If any of you appear without at least one of us, you and your people’s lives are all forfeit. They will slaughter you, and your entire clan without a single moment’s hesitation. So if I were you, I would think rlong and hard before trying to turn tail and run away. So I’ll ask you once, and once only: are you going to stick to your word, and see this battle through to the end? Or would you rather I simply end you myself, right here and now?”

And suddenly you understand what Bane was trying to explain about fear earlier. Looking around, each and every Black Dragon is looking at Freeza and only Freeza. You doubt any of them would dare challenge him now.

-Saiyan Conqueror Quest 147 paused-

>>4592121
All right, I admit it. Freeza did it better than us.
Fuck, now I want to try going all in on scaring somebody but there's no way we'll get to again for awhile.

And that’s it for tonight, everyone have fun? Ready to see how this battle progresses, and how the Covenant plan to stop you now? All this and more, when episode 147 resumes!

Also, we won’t be continuing this Sunday, as I have family things going on. So this episide will resume next Saturday the 9th, noon EST!

Certainly this isn't those dickworms' first rodeo?

Real shit they should just flood the ship with aerosolized cyanide. Sure Frieza would just tank it and not care but they'd probably get da wed dwaken so that'd be a win for them, right?

What's the matter with you people, haven't you ever threatened somebody's life before? We JUST did it properly to Bane. You don't get into a pissing contest with them, you just make them know that they'll be free as a bird if they work with you or dragged to the deepest layer of Hell if they don't.

QM MESSAGE

Since two autists are still going at it, I want to clarify for the people not waving their millimeter peters. For that Kano vote I gave you all two real choices. Antagonize him, or try to build trust. Kano’s whole angle there was entirely to see how you’d react to him, and to challenges to your authority. And in his eyes you failed. You didn’t act like a leader.

>>4593286
He was really surprised with how you acted. Despite everything, Karn IC usually doesn’t take preparing for upcoming battles that intensely. Your apparent worry has him even more concerned, and he was going to mention it. But decided to not distract you. Then after the first contact, and how hard you immediately went against the four Stand users and even Kano, he’s more and more concerned about just how big a threat these Stands can be. But he’s really good at keeping his cool.
>>4593357
No. Actually he’s retiring from the more adventurous lifestyle, planning to live out the rest of his days comfortably

>>4593402
>ctually he’s retiring from the more adventurous lifestyle, planning to live out the rest of his days comfortably
But will he pass on his knowledge of Hamon before he goes senile?

>>4593402
Yeah, I get Kano's reaction. I think where people got mixed up was while the "dick-measuring contest in a combat zone" option was obviously incorrect, the choice to build trust wasn't immediately clear that it'd do that. Since we had just been advised by Bane to control through fear it seemed like a good idea to go for a softer write-in that would remind him we're his ticket to saving his crew instead of realizing butting heads at all didn't fit the moment like we should have.
>Joseph is still planning to retire and take it easy
I can't blame him after the stuff he's seen in this timeline lmao

>>4593402
I hope the Stand Arrow doesn’t get destroyed by the end of this arc. I’d like to get our boy Frieza a Stand.

>>4593427
>softer
*stiffer, whoops

>>4593432
I stole GD's notes, Camali's already taken the stone knife and replaced it with a fake. He's the antagonist of the boxing arc that's next.

>>4593422
He doesn’t know how to awaken someone’s Hamon, since he’s always had it. But the art isn’t dead on his world, it’s just not a Joestar focus now that DIO is well and truly gone.
>>4593427
Showing weakness is almost always the best way to build someone’s trust in you. By showing you trust them.
And in this timeline he saw Kars ‘die’ with his own eyes, something he’d believed impossible.
>>4593432
:^)
>>4593446
Ha. He’s good, but not that good. He wouldn’t be able to get through what’s ahead just to reach Truth. But perhaps you will...

His people already know exactly what he wants them to do.

Oh no. Not only we are not going to find the Stand Dagger, but:
>In his rising desperation, when other Prophets were not nearby, Truth stabbed his 「Lyin’ Eyes」 with the Stand Knife.
>Dagger was permanently absorbed into the Stand
>「Lyin’ Eyes Requiem」 new powers are staggering.
>Other Prophets are both impressed and relieved (since it can give Covenant victory) as they are afraid.
>They are in the "throne room" where Truth is currently trying and demonstrating his Stand's new abilities while getting increasingly "drunk" with power.

>>4594824
Perhaps despite our best efforts finding the Arrow in the Dagger form won't be possible. Though I have hope we will find it. If we actually manage to get it and use it on Divine Dragon Force then it may need a new color palette swap. Though I like our current Red Gold scheme very much too.

If I remember correctly (and this might just be a common fancanon thing), you need a different stand-granting tool to force evolution/requiem, right?
So if you got a stand from a specific arrow, you'd need a different arrow to cause it to evolve

>>4595375
Hmm, I don't remember reading anything like that.

I was thinking, as interesting as those other colors look, our current red color seems to look best to me, so losing it permanently like our former green would be a bit sad.
>>4595375
Perhaps you a right. I'm not going to deny, because I don't know. This would mean that Truth cannot upgrade his own Stand, since it seems like they only have 1 dagger in the whole Covenant.
However if what you say is true, then our Divine Dragon Force could theoretically be still affected by their artifact, since Karn obtained his Stand naturally.

>>4595355
Personally a fan of this one

>>4595375
SQR MHA/Jojo/Chainsawman?(unconfirmed) joint continuity lore autist here. There are 3 primary ways to get a Requiem Stand. Method one is the obvious one, using a requiem stand weapon, but the acquisition of requiem stand isn't exclusively tied to this method. It is possible to get a Requiem Stand from a standard Arrow if your desire is strong enough. This example is demonstrated by Kira at the end of part 4 when he acquires bites the dust. The final method is by the mastery of a supernatural art, as shown with Johnny and Tusk Act 4.

Each of these methods have their own unique traits to them. The Requiem Weapon can grant a Requiem stand to just about anyone who uses it and it automatically separates from the user's stand and can be re-used after that Requiem stand has fulfilled the desire of the user. If the same user stabs themselves again they will get the same stand as their first manifestation as shown with Silver Chariot Requiem.

Getting a Requiem stand from a standard arrow is a lot more complicated. It's shown that Stand Weapons have a form of quasi-consciousness, likely driven in part by the virus coating the weapon seeking out a host to facilitate evolution. In rare circumstances a weapon will be so acutely drawn to a being's desires that it sees them as a perfect host and the weapon flings itself into the perspective host to be assimilated into their body. This is very much a permanent bonding and the weapon can never be recovered, even after the host's death.

The final method is through a mastering a force of nature. The Stands manifested with this method are more tied to the type of magic karate being used and less with the user itself. The stand takes on the characteristics of the fighting style and with it all of it's strengths, weaknesses and risks.

There's a fourth hypothetical method of acquiring a Requiem using the Rokakaka fruit but this is very much in the realm of theory and has never occurred in the canon material. I hope this clarifies things a little.

>>4594824
Remember, a Requiem Stand is created for a goal. Like Chariot Requiem was created with the goal of “protect the arrow” and GER was made with “Defeat King Crimson” as it’s ability.
>>4595355
Glad you’ve enjoyed.

Hello Shiny Raquazas

A good question. But, think back to Part 4 when that very thing happened
>>4595389
>since Karn obtained his Stand naturally.
Oh wait, you all actually don’t yet know how Dragon Force first came to you. Man I cannot wait until we get to the arc where I get to finally unveil everything I’ve been hiding and crafting behind the scenes.
>>4595409
I do want to correct you a little bit. The Arrow(or dagger in this case) does have to CHOOSE who gets a Requiem Stand/ability. The Arrow stabbed Kira in part 4, he didn’t stab himself or Killer Queen

>>4595409
>This example is demonstrated by Kira at the end of part 4 when he acquires bites the dust.
Not officially a Requiem Stand, but close enough that I’ll concede it as one.
>The final method is by the mastery of a supernatural art, as shown with Johnny and Tusk Act 4.
This just sounds like headcanon. Could you give a more in-depth explanation for this one?

>>4595423
>Oh wait, you all actually don’t yet know how Dragon Force first came to you
Wait...is Dragon Force actually different from the dragons that appear in other instances of the Dragon Fist technique?
Also on the note of stands, does Future Chaya have conscious control of her Dragon Force, because if she does we should really teach her some of its gimmicks.

>>4595423
>Ha. It’s possible. Or it could be much, much worse. Not related but, when that bomb went off and you spent your entire focus on your Guided Eye Beams, did you drop something?
Well unless you updated the Pastebin we could never know. My money's on Bane's Holocron since everything else should stay on by itself. Unless its the soul stone but I'm pretty sure we left that with Aku/on the ship
>Oh wait, you all actually don’t yet know how Dragon Force first came to you. Man I cannot wait until we get to the arc where I get to finally unveil everything I’ve been hiding and crafting behind the scenes.
How long have you been holding onto this man? And also gonna be sad if we can't requiem divine dragon force, but I look forward to secret reveals

>>4595423
Wait, on the pastebin it doesn't say our ring is on our hand. GD? Where is our wedding ring?

>>4595430
Yes, Dragon Fist is just that. But Dragon Force is something entirely different. Goku and Ace, for instance, don’t have Stands.
Yes, but she doesn’t like how fragile it makes her so rarely uses it, much less keep it out for long. She’s seen some of what you did with it before it transformed, but hasn’t figured out the crazier things.
>>4595444
It wasn’t something physical you dropped
>How long have you been holding onto this man?
Since about two chapters after I revealed you had a Stand and not just a flashy attack. Also it would just be 「Dragon Force Requiem」but the sentiment stands. And I promise if I ever drop the quest, due to irl or something else, I will reveal many of the conceptual events that led us all here. Like another two, that are both interesting and NOT simply gameplay mechanics I use to speed things along sometimes: how did Karn defy fate so well that the SKoT can’t figure it out(yet knows something messed with time there)? Or what force(or forces) causes Karn to act when he’s indecisive and cannot choose a path?
>>4595449
It is still on your hand, you only remove it when you turn a Gravity Chamber on.

>>4595461
The Dark Souls angel spirit thing? Can't think of anything else besides maybe DDF or the control codes.

Oh yeah I almost forgot about that soul we absorbed.
I'm almost positive it did something, but so far we've seen nothing to imply it actually did anything.

>>4595472
Well iirc it made it so we couldn't do the god saiyan ritual, at least not the normal way

>>4595478
I thought our Berserk mutation is what fucked with the ritual, hence why doing it would unlock Berserk 3.

>>4595464
You can’t accidentally drop that.
>>4595472
There has been no evidence you’ve seen that it did anything to you.
>>4595478
Several Karns have gotten it to work, and others haven’t. But the question is what’s the difference between them?

>>4595488
What if we did the ritual with 6 Legendary Super Saiyans instead of regular Super Saiyans?

>>4595488
Assuming you mean we can't accidentally drop any of those things then... idk? Did we drop out of super saiyan subconsciously? Or worse, did our instinct's innate alarm system lower since we took out the perceived threat?
>Several Karns have gotten it to work, and others haven’t. But the question is what’s the difference between them?
Honest rough guess? Purity of heart. I imagine a Karn who acts in what they feel is morally just and correct, and constantly is aiming to do what they perceive as the right thing allows them to outweigh the evil or darkness present in their soul due to the angel and those they've killed enough that they can perform the god ritual. Am I anywhere close?

>>4595500
Would simply skip Berserk 3
>>4595502
You dropped the choke.
If canon Vegeta can make it work, then there’s no reason Karn’s heart wouldn’t be ‘pure’ enough. But it is the Berserker state that causes it to fail, Saiyans who almost always become consumed by their power and destroyed.

>>4595524
Oh yeah the choke. Genuinely forgot about that guy, the anon guessed right when he said we'd forget about it.

He should be in Hell right now filling up an ocean with the amount of salt he's making.

>>4595527
>>4595528
He’s not getting up anytime soon, unless someone somehow wakes him up. You didn’t kill him, but choked him to unconsciousness and then some. He’s just not a threat to you, Meloka, even Freeza. But to the Black Dragons, however...Well Kano said it best. “Never thought I’d see that metal bastard fall.”

>>4595536
Alright so what exactly is Za Metaru capable of withstanding?
I know kinetic force is pretty much useless against it, but what about thermal energy?
Or what about electricity?

>>4595539
You can't kill it man. New Wave tried to kill it. But they failed.

>>4595540
But what about Punk Rock?

>>4595543
They failed, as they were smite to the ground.

>>4595539
Attacking Za Metaru is pointless, as you cannot kill Za Metaru. A bit of a small conceptual spoiler, but not even GER, Bites the Dust, King Crimson, or Za Warudo Over Heaven can affect it. The tradeoff is how encumbering it is, a narrowed field of view, and anyone who isn’t deaf can hear you coming from a good ways away.

Very true. You’re just lucky he didn’t headbutt you

>>4595642
Shit forgot my reply to your post, my bad anon.
Nothing King Crimson, or really any other Stand shown thus far can actually affect Za Metaru. From timestops to Death 13, sniper rats to reality warpers, their abilities don’t actually affect Za Metaru.

>>4595713
Oh, I get it. Their game plan was for Za Metaru to bog down any prison break attempts while Red Balloon spammed explosions without really needing to worry about friendly fire.
Brutal, guess we really lucked out going for the choke instead of our stand.
