Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

After Mechikabura's visit and subsequent kicking of the Time Patroller Trunks, Karn then spent a few hours alone with Towa and Meloka before exploring Towa's Lab. Searching around he traveled deeper and deeper into the depths of the complex, coming to a doorway sealed by a giant block that he tore away with telekinesis. Only to discover a room swathed in Dark, leading to a battle against the agents of Darkness. After a brief yet intense battle, Chilli successfully sealed away the Dark, only for a giant to be discovered in a hidden room. After exploring the room beyond with his magical children and finding a pair of old corpses, Karn and his family then left that sealed off room behind before he went to spend time with Koruza. As we rejoin Karn, you've given the pair both something to consider, and spent more than two hours with the two of them.

“Hey, you two coming?” Future Chaya asks, suddenly dashing into the room. “Dinner's ready, let's go!”
“Already? Well, let's not keep them waiting.” you say, turning from your adult daughter to your youngest half demon son and his Stand, both of who seem exhausted from you training them. “Come on, let's go.”
“Right.” Koruza says, Dark Rider vanishing back into nothing as your son walks over, taking your offered hand. Future Chaya, seeing what you're about to do rushes over and lays her hand on your shoulder as well. You focus, raising your right hand to your forehead, and with a moment's concentration teleport the three of you to where everyone else is gathered. And to your surprise, everything is already laid out. What seems to be a stack of glazed meat slabs is piled high, at least a hundred inch-thick pieces all stacked together. “Oh wow, this looks great!”
“That it does.” you say, an almost sickly sweet smell hitting your nose. And as it does, your stomach demands it instantly. “Oh, that smells good.”

“And now that you're here, go ahead everyone and dig in.” Towa says, and as one everyone digs in. The food is absolutely heavenly, you letting out a satisfied noise as the first bite hits your tongue. And you aren't the only one, everyone enjoying what was prepared. Then after less than ten minutes, give or take, everyone is finished.
“That was excellent.” you say to Towa, relaxing and leaning back in your seat.
“Good, but that wasn't me.” she says, turning towards Future Chaya. “This one was all her.”
“Really? Excellent job kiddo.” you say, reaching out and ruffling her hair against her halfhearted protests. Yet despite them you can see she's smiling and blushing a little bit. “This was great.”

“Ehehe, thanks.” she says, rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly at everyone else heaping praise upon her as well. She seems a little taken aback and embarrassed by the praise, but despite that seems to be enjoying the attention. Perhaps she and your Chaya aren't so different after all?
“You gotta teach me how to make this!” Kayle says excitedly, flying directly up into your future daughter's face. “I wanna make it too!”
“Yeah!” Tatsu and Tomi surprisingly shout together, Future Chaya looking between your three kids with a look of surprise.
“Well, I think I know what we will be having tomorrow evening.” Towa says, looking to Future Chaya as well. “What do you think?”
“I, uhhh, yeah!” she says, stumbling a bit. “That sounds great! C'mon, I'll show you all how to prepare it.”

Future Chaya then takes the older twins and Kayle along with her, heading through one of this dining room's four doors out. Perhaps that one leads to their kitchen?

“Staying on a twenty four hour schedule is important to keep your minds ready to return to your own timeline.” Towa says to you. “But that said, you do have another hour or two before calling it a day.”

Another hour or so left in the day? What will you do?

“I'm going to spend a bit of time by myself, meditating on my Ascended form.” you say, standing tall and stretching after the filling meal. “Anyone know a quiet room I can do that?”
“Of course, I'll show you.” Towa says, snapping her fingers and the android Churai appears beside her. Towa doesn't say anything, the machine woman immediately moving forward and gathering up the plates from the meal. “This way.”
“Thanks.” you say, following her out the door to the left of the one Future Chaya and the kids had gone through. “Need a quiet place to focus.”
“I know just the room.” she says, turning back and glancing at you before leading you down the hallway. “I do have a sensory deprivation chamber, just up ahead.”

“Sensory deprivation?” you ask, brows furrowing. “What do you mean?”
“With a bit of magic and tech, I have created a room that doesn't stimulate most of your senses.” she says, sounding a bit proud of this as she talks. “There is zero gravity inside the pitch-black chamber, and has spells woven throughout it to prevent any possible sounds from traveling and no sensations from registering on your skin. You'll essentially be deaf, blind, unfeeling and weightless. The perfect chamber to truly focus your mind.”
“Interesting.” you say, curious about this mysterious chamber. “Well, let's try it out and see what happens.”
“I think you will find it a uniquely-relaxing experience.” she says, turning a corner to what looks like another giant sealed gravity chamber door. But this one has a warning above it in demonic script, illegible to you. “And here we are. One moment.”

She then turns from you, summoning the god-destroying spear Godsend and weaving the blade through a complex pattern through the air while speaking in a tongue you can't understand. Then after a moment, the door opens by itself as she turns back towards you.

“The door will shut behind you once you enter, and I'll come get you when it's time. If you don't leave on your own before hand.” Towa says, walking up and getting very close to you. She looks up into your eyes, then suddenly lunges up, kissing you. You return the kiss, Towa pressing herself to you for several seconds before pulling away. “Don't get too lost in there now.”

Then she starts sauntering off, adding a little extra hip into each step as she walks away. You watch her for a second or two before turning back to the chamber, and stepping forward. As you reach the door frame, you can almost feel the magic inside against your skin. Your instincts buzz slightly, almost as if they're uncertain about what lies beyond. And for a moment, you hesitate. But shaking your head, you step forward into that unknown.

The first thing you notice is the lack of sound, your footsteps not making any noise as you walk in. Looking around, the only light in this featureless room is coming from the hallway you'd come in through, but that immediately ends as the door shuts itself. Completely silently, not even the faintest noise to confirm that its, closed. You focus your energy, and in a flash of blinding emerald light take on your Ascended Berserker form. And as you do, the gravity in the room seemingly vanishes. With nothing holding you onto the floor, you begin drifting up into the air. With your aura's glow illuminating the room you fly up into the center, then once you're centered close your eyes, and focus.

First you power down to the minimum required to stay transformed, letting your aura fade and once more leaving you suspended in darkness. Opening and closing your eyes makes no difference, leaving you suspended in absolute darkness. Absolute darkness and silence envelop you, giving you a completely distraction-free environment to focus solely on your transformed state.

But it doesn't work. The more you try and relax, the more your instincts seemingly awaken in this space. The feeling of being watched, of being unaware is leaving you uneasy despite knowing that there is no one else in here. But your body cannot relax. Being deprived of your senses only puts you even further on edge, muscles tensing up and readied for an ambush or fight. No matter how you try relaxing, in this space you simply cannot. Time stretches on, becoming more and more unsettling as the seconds tick by.

“HAAAAA!” you shout, or at least try to. But you hear nothing, your instincts ratcheting up another level and leaving you feeling even more tense and uneasy.

But what do you do?
>Try and stick it out, you need to relax and focus on yourself
>Let your aura flare up again, perhaps with your sight unhampered you'll be able to relax in this space a bit more?

Not hearing your own voice, you can feel your instincts' fears nearly double. The sense of fear and dread in your gut, the worry something terrible is closing in on you while you're unawares nearly overpowers your rational mind. So you close your eyes, despite it not making a difference in sight, and take a deep, calming breath. Slowly, methodically you inhale, counting up to ten before holding your breath.

“One, two, three, four, five.” you think to yourself, then begin exhaling once more while again slowly counting up to ten again. As you do, as well as you can figure without your sense of touch, attempt to retake the meditative pose the Guardian of New Salda had taught you for meditation. Back straight, arms resting on your crossed legs as you continue slowly, methodically breathing. After the third breath you begin feeling you heart rate slow down, only now realizing just how quickly it had been beating. Your body had gone into attack mode, a hair trigger away from annihilating anything or anyone who would have appeared out of the darkness around you. But as you focus your mind, tuning out everything except for your breathing and counting the seconds in and out with each breath, your body gradually relaxes. With every few breaths you stretch them out longer, and after a short while are up to fifteen second inhales and exhales. Then, just as you've fully relaxed, everything around you begins changing again. Slowly the gravity begins coming back on, and as the sensation of drifting weightlessly is replaced by slowly falling you feel your eyes open, and suddenly hear an ear-splitting screech!

Immediately your hands clasp over your ears, you feeling your hands to your head like a thunderclap as the room begins filling with light. It burns your eyes, you closing them and looking away at the sensational overload. After a second or three your body begins adjusting, and opening your eyes see Meloka and Towa standing in the doorway.

“Relaxing, isn't it?” Towa asks you, shouting unnecessarily loud as you begin walking over towards your wife and the demon princess. But Meloka seems more concerned, hairless brows furrowed in concern.
“Karn? You okay?” she asks worriedly. “You okay?”

Well?
>You only just got relaxed, you're doing this again tomorrow to see if you can better-acclimate to those bizarre conditions

“Not gonna lie, I only just got relaxed in that thing.” you say, and despite speaking barely above a whisper your voice is booming in your ears. “Made me go kinda haywire in there, my instincts did not like it.”
“Your instincts?” Towa asks, clearly confused as she tilts her head. “What do you mean?”
“I'm not exactly sure.” you reply, tapping your chest. “But in here, I can almost feel when danger is closing in. And for most of my time in there, they were going crazy. Having my senses dulled like that was leaving me almost in a panic, until I could calm myself down. Without all my senses, it felt like I was going to be under attack at any moment.”
“That bad?” Meloka asks, you nodding to her then smiling.

“Yeah. So tomorrow I'm going to give it another go.” you say, everyone's voices no longer sounding like they're shouting in your ears. “But that's definitely enough for today. Where are the kids?”
“They're all already bedded down for the evening, if you want to say a quick goodnight.” Towa tells you, tapping her forehead. “Then when you're done, we'll be waiting.”
“Alright, I'll meet you there.” you say, focusing your ki sense. You go to Chaya and Broly first, the two sharing a room with Ace and Future Chaya. Appearing at the base of the two bunked beds, you say a quick goodnight to the four of them before teleporting next to the oldest twins. Tatsu and Tomi are sharing a room with Maza, you wishing the three of them a goodnight as well before once more teleporting off. It only takes you a minute or so to tell all of your kids goodnight, then focus your senses and return to Towa and Meloka. Who're both expecting you, and begin stripping you down out of your armor as you appear. Seems they're eager to get to bed themselves.

You get in bed with the two women, and after awhile the three of you finally head off to sleep yourselves. As you're drifting off, one woman on either side of you as you lay on your back, exhausted, you can't help but feel a smile on your face. This is the sort of peace you've worked so hard and for so long to achieve. And once the Supreme Kai of Time has been dealt with, they'll all be able to join you in your timeline without fear of her goons' interference and ruining important events for you all. Thoughts of that future fill your mind as you drift off to sleep, dreaming of a world without that damned Kai's interference, and all too soon find yourself waking once more.

The next several days are all just as peaceful as your first day, no further incursions of Abyssal Dark or visits from Mechikabura, just you and your large family all spending time together. As you adjust to your new routine, you wish that this peaceful time here will never end. But end it does, and as the final day draws to a close, everyone is clearly not ready for it to be over.

“Do you really have to go?” Koruza and Dark Rider ask simultaneously, as the dinner prepared by Future Chaya, Tatsu, Tomi, and Kayle is finished. “You can't stay forever?”
“Sorry, but we do.” you say, looking both your son and then his Stand in the eyes. “If we want to go back to our own timeline, we have to go. But we'll be back soon.”
“How soon?” Maza asks, sounding a bit more curt than usual. You feel it, what seems almost like hurt in his voice. But you don't answer, instead turning to Towa questioningly.

“It will be another month before you can return, to avoid leaving traces of our timeline on you all.” Towa says. As she does you can almost feel your half-demon kids sigh out in disappointment. “But then you all will be able to stay for another week once more.”
“A whole month?” Maz asks, your youngest twin son's expression falling. He then brings up his hands, counting something on his fingers. “That's four weeks. I can wait four weeks.”
“Me too.” Koruza says, and the room's sentiment begins changing. After less than ten seconds, they all seem okay with this arrangement, and not so sad to say their goodbyes.

“Maza. You've grown a lot stronger this past week.” you say, the two of you clasping hands firmly. “And I'm not talking about your powerlevel. You've grown up.”
“Thank you.” he says, nodding to you once and trying to remain stoic. Which lasts up until you break the shake, and give your oldest half-demon son a giant bear hug. “Be strong Maza. Your family here will rely on you.”
“I will.” he says, you ending the hug and turning to Milha.
“I'll miss all the fun we've had.” she says, a shiver climbing up your spine at the various methods of torture her magic has put you through this week. “I'll come up with even more fun spells for next time!”
“Ahaha, I'm sure you will.” you say, ruffling her hair as she beams at you. Then you turn to Koruza, and his Dark Rider standing behind him. “You two, remember what I taught you. Do not hesitate in the face of fear, make them more afraid of you than you are of them.”
“We will.” they say, you reaching out and laying a hand on each of their heads. Then you turn to Future Chaya.

What do you tell her? Any last words before you leave?
>Keep getting stronger, and to not be content with this level of power

It's the truth. Chaya needs to be the pillar to her people like Karn is to his.

>Keep getting stronger, and to not be content with this level of power
Getting content means you aren't getting stronger, which means enemies can get strong enough to handle you, which is clearly bad.

Telling her to get stronger is well and good, but without reaffirming her reason to get stronger in the first place she risks losing sight of what really gives her strength.

"As for you, Chaya." you say, walking up to your adult daughter and then wrapping her in your arms. "You have to take care of yourself kiddo. Don't go breaking yourself, or leaving your body incapacitated. Your family all need you to be strong to face what's coming."
"What's coming?" she asks, sounding confused. "What do you mean?"
“Mechikabura and Fu captured Trunks. That means the war between them and the Supreme Kai of Time is about to escalate.” you tell her seriously, pulling back a bit and grabbing her shoulders, staring into her eyes. “She is going to retaliate, somewhere. Your family is relying on you and your power, you have to keep yourself whole. She can attack at any moment, and you're standing between her thugs and your family. So promise me you'll be safe.”
“I will.” she says seriously, meeting your gaze with steely resolve in her eyes. “Nothing will happen to them while you're away, I promise.”

“Thank you Chaya.” you say, hugging her again and patting her on the head despite her clearly-insincere complaints. “I know you will. All of you behave while we're gone, okay?”
“Yes sir!” your three half-demon kids all shout, and as one to your complete surprise give you a proper Saiyan salute! It catches you by such surprise you can't react for a second, then as the shock wears off you return the gesture to them with a proud smile on your face before turning back to Towa.
“We're ready.” you say, the demoness smirking and shaking her head.
“Almost ready.” she says, gesturing for Chilli to walk up. Confused he does, Towa instructing him to lay down on the table. “Remember how you all were when you'd left your own world? Chilli was unconscious.”
“Ohhh, that's right!” you say, realizing the mistake you would have made. Would have appeared really suspicious if one second he's unconscious on his bed, and the next wide awake when you all return. “Good call.”

“Alright Chilli, hold still.” she says, reaching out and tapping him on the forehead with a finger. A second later, your magically-attuned son is asleep, head lolling to the side. “There. Now you all are ready.”
“Thanks Towa. For everything.” you say, the demon woman walking up to you, and giving you a kiss for several seconds before pulling back away. “See you again soon.”
“It can't be soon enough.” she says, then calls. “Churai, send them back.”
“Of course.” the android says, appearing beside you all. “Everyone, into your positions.”

The android rearranges how you all are standing, returning you all to how you were before leaving your own timeline, then the world around you shifts. One moment you are inside Towa's main laboratory, the next find yourself back in your ship, Megumin kneeling before your sleeping son.

“Megumin, why don't you go on and get some sleep yourself?” you ask her, the young Crimson Demon woman turning to you curiously. “I'm sure that, by tomorrow, he'll be as good as new.”
“Uhhh, yeah. Okay.” she says, sounding a bit confused as everyone else starts heading out of the room. “Are you sure?”
“Very sure.” you say, surprised at how well she's acting out her part. She still sounds like a distressed wife uncertain if her husband will recover. “Do you need a hand?”
“No no, I can take care of it myself.” she says, you nodding and leaving the two of them alone. You and Meloka take Okira and Karn Jr to your own room, the other kids all running off different directions but the two of you clearly are ready for nothing more than to head off to bed, and get some rest. Or, at least that was your plan.

As the two of you get into bed, Meloka creates a pair of glowing orbs around the two youngest, levitating them up over the bed and crawling atop you.

“I've been waiting to have you all to myself.” your wife whispers in your ear, you realizing you're not going to be getting much sleep over the next couple of hours. But eventually the two of you are satisfied, Meloka returning the now-sleeping children down to the bed with you both, and quickly falls asleep. You're not long after her, your last thoughts of the new day ahead before the darkness takes you as well. You drift in the endless void for an unknowable amount of time, then suddenly feel yourself beginning to awaken.

Your eyes suddenly snap open, your mind instantly fully awake. Looking around, you see your wife laying on your side, still deep asleep with Karn Jr laying peacefully asleep between you both. On your left you are still holding your youngest daughter Okira to you, her Stand laying out of her mouth also asleep. First day back in your own timeline in a week.

"If I'm up this early, there's no way something isn't sneaking around." you think to yourself, and immediately focus on your family. You use your telekinesis to lift Okira, Imagine Dragon, Meloka, and Karn Jr, then immediately slip out of bed before gently laying them back down on the bed. You grab your training uniform and throw it on quickly, sliding your feet into your boots Caulifla'd made for you before grabbing your sword, slinging it over your back and rushing towards the door. Silently you grab the door, sliding it open and slipping out before shutting it behind you. “Alright. Come out, come out. Make this easy, and I'll kill you quick.”

But no one takes your generous offer. The hallway remains eerily quiet, nothing moving or making a noise as you look down both sides of the curved hallway. You then close your eyes, focusing on sensing the ki of every living being in your home. You immediately sense the different ki of your family behind you, as well as your kids gathered in a few different rooms. Then further away are your old crew, still asleep in their beds as well as Silver's staff. The old man himself, however, is awake, and not alone. You can sense another ki with him. It's faint, barely noticeable, but you can still sense it. And as you do, you get the feeling that this sensation is wrong. Almost as if whoever is that ki's owner is purposefully suppressing it, minimizing their presence while on your ship. Which immediately strikes you as something worth investigating.

“Who the hell is that?” you think to yourself, floating silently along the halls while zeroed in on that minuscule ki signature. You rapidly approach the mess hall where Silver and the mysterious ki are, and within twelve seconds have reached the still-closed doors. Knowing the sensors on the door will open them once you've gotten too close, you instead stop just short of the wall, and press your ear to it hoping to hear something. But it's too far, you unable to hear anything despite your ear pressed to the metal. Perhaps the mess hall's walls are sound insulated, to mitigate the volume of a roomful of rowdy crew? Either way, there's nothing you can do from out here. You either have to go on in, or ignore it and go on. But there's no way that this mysterious ki isn't what woke you up, something about it just doesn't feel right. So you walk forward, the automatic doors sliding open and revealing the figure beyond. You see Silver, who you notice is standing with the aid of his crutch instead of sitting down as he usually does to stand face-to-face with an oddly dressed, lanky figure with long black hair. This person turns, wide black eyes staring directly into your soul.

“You-?!” the man says, recoiling at the sight of you. You watch him curiously, studying the figure, and for a single instant get a much greater insight into his power. When the mysterious man's composure fades, for that moment his ki surges, revealing his power to be several million times stronger than what you could sense. But his strength is still nowhere close to your own, which does put you a little more at ease. “You're him, aren't you? Karn, the Dragon.”
“That's me.” you say, and something tells you that despite the power gap, he's still incredibly dangerous. It would be best not to underestimate him. “Now the better question is, who're you?”
“My name is Illumi. Illumi Zoldyck.” the man says, you suddenly remembering seeing him inside Silva's ship last time you'd seen the assassin. If he's here, then where is his family? “And no, before you ask, my family are not here with me. I am here by myself, just checking up on an old friend.”

You turn from Illumi to Silver, who's face is an unreadable mask but hasn't turned his attention from the assassin clansman before you. And you notice Silver's boy, Jim, hiding in his metallic form as a part of the floor between the two men. Something still feels off here, very, very off.

But what do you do? What can you do?

Silver's clear unease has you on edge, and you can read in his body language and Jim's positioning that this stranger is trouble. But what's more important is the fact this joker snuck onto your ship! Your eyes narrow, glaring menacingly at the assassin.

“Why are you here?” you ask, stepping forward threateningly. “And more importantly: what the hell do you think you're doing sneaking aboard MY ship, without MY permission?”
“Sneaking? I came in through the entrance. It was wide open.” he says, sounding genuinely surprised. Then his eyes widen, as he realizes something. “Ohh, you mean this, don't you?”

Then his aura blazes up around him a moment before fading away, the assassin no longer concealing his energy signature. Once again his powerlevel stabilizes in the low millions perhaps, not a threat to you but still quite impressive nonetheless.

“This is just something we assassins do, force of habit.” he says dismissively, adopting an easy going manner. “Better?”
“You still haven't answered my question.” you say, not believing this new attitude he's put on. “Why are you here?”
“Right.” he says, expression turning completely neutral as his voice takes on a far more . “I am here to catch up with an old family friend. I haven't seen Silver for well over two decades now, not since he still worked for those frozen wannabes. Which is actually something I wanted to speak with you about.”

The Zoldyck assassin then turns back towards Silver, but not fully. He keeps you in sight in his peripheral while speaking to the former Lin Kuei assassin.

“We had thought they were finished, but it seems they have returned far worse than before.” Illumi continues. “They're not only back, but have mechanized.”
“You've seen them too?” you ask, Illumi immediately turning around fully towards you.
“They've been here? Where is the body?” he asks, suddenly intense. “If the head is still mostly intact, my little brother can access it's databanks and perhaps discover the locations of their hideouts.”
“I don't have it, not anymore.” you reply, the assassin visibly sagging. Yet something in his demenor doesn't strike you as wholly-authentic. Either he knows the fate of the assassin, or something else. So you try and test him. “Teleported it down deep into my planet, and tossed it straight down into the molten core.”
“So there's no chance of recovering it then?” he asks, trying to appear disappointed. But he just doesn't seem genuine to you. Either he's trying to appear more sociable than he feels or is overacting to hide his true feelings. You can't quite get a read on him.

“Well, I do know of some others, but Vox isn't letting them go.” the assassin continues. “Supposedly they attacked your daughter's second-in-command, that girl Tanya, and tried to assassinate her along with several of Vox's weapons developers. But they underestimated the Exterminator, who wiped them all out. His people are now examining them, but I doubt he will be able to get any useful information out of them, but he refuses since they supposedly saw some sort of experimental or top secret weapons in development.”

As he says this, your mind goes back to Tanya's remarkably powerful cannon she used against Kars, and wonder what other sorts of powerful tools his people have been cooking up with the Covenant weapons' platforms they've acquired thanks to the war.

“If another one happens to come here, I need you both to do one thing for me.” Illumi says, again looking between both you and Silver. “If another assassin arrives, if at all possible, preserve the head. It's data could prove invaluable, and allow us a method to track them down before their organization grows to a level that is an actual threat. Can you promise me at least that much?”

Well? How do you react to this ask?
>”What aren't you telling me? I know you're hiding something, out with it.”
>Say that you'll try, but you can't promise that if another shows up it's head will survive the experience. You've had a bad experience with taking machine creature's heads as trophies before

Shh, that never happened. Nobody can know that something did sneak up on us. And as long as the Lin Kuei get a thorough Karnage-style evisceration, it can stay that way. Those frostie ASSassins have been testing their luck far too often. Entire races got murdered for less.

>>5187508

“How long have you all known about this?” you ask, catching the assassin by clear surprise. "This seems like it's incredibly important information. Why...Why didn't Silva contact me directly about this right away?"

“There's a reason I'm here, and that this meeting isn't being conducted through the sanctioned, official channels.” Illumi says, voice lowering to barely a whisper. “Whoever is hiding them, is clearly a tech genius as well. Able to not only mechanize the Lin Kuei's assassins, but also able to thwart my little brother's attempts to track them down virtually. This person, or perhaps people, were able to even breach official channels, and get surprisingly deep into our own networks as well. My little brother was eventually able to purge them, and prevent any further data from being compromised. He reached out to King Cold's nephew, Arctus I believe his name is, and they have been collaborating since yesterday on ferreting out this would-by online assassin. I feel confident that, between the two of them, they will be able to keep this attacker at bay until they're found. And hung from the ceiling by their own entrails!”

The assassin's sudden bloodlust pings your instincts, and almost unconsciously feel your Energy Body technique activate. He sees this, and immediately calms back down. His wildly-flowing hair settles back down, his body's tension easing back out of his body as the assassin relaxes.

“Sorry, I seem to have gotten a little too excited there.” Illumi says, a hard edge still to his voice that smooths out as he keeps talking. “It's been a frustrating few days, to say the least.”
“Well, if anyone can discover this cyber menace, it's Arctus.” you say, then let your expression go hard again as you continue addressing the assassin telepathically. “But next time, get a hold of me first personally before stepping one foot onto my ship.”
“I won't forget.” the assassin says, giving you a shallow nod before turning back towards Silver. “Now, where were we?”

You think everything's worked itself out, and are turning to leave, when Silver's next words chill you to your blood.

“I already told you, I don't have that damned amulet any more. One of the Lin Kuei managed to get away with it during that fight.” he says, you realizing that your conversation with this Zoldyck isn't over quite yet. It may just be getting started.

I don't think Kazuma is foolish enough to think he could keep up the training regimen needed to be a Half-Saiyan that's worth a shit.
Unless he just wished to be dedicated to training as well, but that also seems like a waste of a wish...

“They really have it? Shinnok's cursed amulet has fallen back into the Lin Kuei's hands?!” the assassin shouts furiously at Silver. “How could you allow this to happen? You were charged with keeping it safe from those fools, there's no telling how much damage they could do with it!”
“I took her hand, but lost her as the battle turned crazier.” Silver says, turning to face you. And you don't need telepathy to know that he's lying, and wants you to go along with his story as well. “More and more folk showed up, each trying to get their hands on it. But she escaped when no one was looking, focused on that little goblin's madness and his terror machines he could just create out of thin air. When he fell, we realized that the amulet he'd been holding was a fake, and the real one nowhere to be seen.”

“Damn, I can't believe that they have the real one.” Illumi says, shaking his head. “With that cursed artifact in their possession, there's no telling the damage they could do. Finding their hideouts is now a top priority, they MUST not be allowed to unleash...”
“On that much we agree.” Silver says, Illumi clearly relaxing at Silver's sincere-sounding words over the momentary pause. The assassin clearly not aware you know what evil being lurks inside the cursed medallion. “No matter what, that artifact cannot be allowed to fall into the wrong hands.”
“That they now have it is urgent news, I must go and tell Father immediately.” Illumi says, giving a curt bow to the older man before turning back towards you. “Forgive me, but I must depart immediately.”

Well? What do you do?
>Don't say anything and let him leave, then telepathically ask Silver why he lied to the assassin about the amulet being taken by the Lin Kuei and not that you all saved it

“Very well. Be on your way.” you say, standing aside and letting the man exit the room without standing in his way. He nods, walking briskly towards and through the automatic doors that shut behind him. You turn towards Silver as the door shuts, and telepathically reach out to him.

“Why?” you think to him, not clarifying what you're asking at first. His expression softens, giving you a smirk and holding up his free hand to his lips. Then, he begins speaking.
“Morning, General.” he says, confusing you by using your title. He never uses your title, what's he doing? “Breakfast will be ready in another hour or two, the ovens are fired up already.”

Then telepathically he continues, speaking his mind.

“Can't trust him, that one's a snake.” Silver tells you telepathically. “If he knew the amulet was still here, he'd stay and skulk around looking for it. No matter what you do, do NOT go to wherever it's stored.”
“I'll keep an eye out as well.” Raven, New Salda's Guardian adds in. “He will not approach the vault.”
“Good, I'm hungry. And I'm sure the kids will all be too.” you say aloud, keeping the double conversation going best you can. “Be careful Raven. If he gets anywhere close to you, let me know immediately. I'm not taking any chances with a Zoldyck on the loose here.”
“Should I tell Emilia to keep an eye on him?” she asks, you shaking your head before continuing.
“No, but let her know, and have her tell Vegeta.” you think to her. “He needs to be on his toes about this. I don't trust him.”

Then you continue aloud, speaking to Silver while still sensing the assassin's once again concealed ki heading away from you towards the ship's exit. Once he's outside, you doubt that you'll be able to track him for long without assistance.

“So, how do you know a Zoldyck?” you ask Silver aloud.
“When you run in those circles, professionals tend to know each other. Or at least know of.” Silver says with a sigh, sitting down and relaxing as Jim's puddle slides across the floor back over to him and reforming his body. “Good, room's clean. If he'd laid down any magical or spying tech, Jim would have found it. Anyways, Illumi's a dangerous one. Specializes in infiltrating the most heavily-guarded fortresses, and assassinating the best-guarded squishies.”
“Squishies?” you ask him, head tilting in confusion as he chuckles.
“Weaklings protected by stronger beings.” he clarifies, then continues. “He's not as big of a threat against powerful beings like yourself and Lord Freeza, but is still quite dangerous in his own right. Anyways, what're you doing up at this hour?”
“Sensed something was off this morning, and ended up here.” you say, Silver just nodding along. “Guess he's why.”

"Maybe." you say, feeling a little uncertain. "He may have been what I sensed, but maybe not. There could always be something else still hiding around here somewhere. So I'm going to take a look around, and make sure no one else is sneaking around.”
“I understand, and good hunting.” Silver says, you sensing Illumi vanishing outside your range as he leaves your ship behind. “Just be careful in the old engine room. With the hull still damaged from that bastard sabotaging the engines and causing them to blow, I left a few rather nasty traps should anyone try sneaking into the ship through there.”

“Appreciate it.” you say, heading off with a wave. If it's enough for HIM to call nasty, you doubt that heading there would yield you anything other than possibly some injuries. So you leave the mess hall, and begin making a circuit of your ship through the main hallway. Walking almost silently across the metal floor, taking care to gently step as you walk, you travel through the halls without incident. You check every room that's empty, peering in and scanning with your eyes and ki sense, but don't find anything out of the ordinary anywhere. And by the time you're back to your own room, everyone else on the ship is beginning to awaken as well. Perhaps he was the reason you'd woken up early?

“Everything okay?” Meloka asks you suddenly with her telepathy. “Did anything happen?”
“Another Zoldyck showed up, to speak to Silver about that old amulet.” you reply, walking up to your door and opening it with minimal effort. Once the door's open, you end the telepathic link, and speak aloud. “Silver told him the Lin Kuei have it, and they're looking to find out where these new robot Lin Kuei are hiding.”
“So they know about them too?” Meloka asks, her heavy brows furrowed. “Maybe with those assassins looking for them too, they won't be a threat for much longer.”
“Hopefully.” you say, sighing out. “C'mon, let's go get the kids up, and get the day started.”
“Sounds good to me.” she says, and despite the news seems to be in a rather good mood today as each of you take one of the younger kids and leave your room. Once everyone is up, you now have another choice before you today:

"I think the kids should all go fishing." you say, Meloka raising an eyebrow at you as most of the younger kids all cheer. So you add in, for good measure. "Not out far enough for any of THOSE things to attack us, everyone has to stay close enough that you're not out in the ocean proper.”
"If you say so." she says, clearly uncertain but not willing to argue with you over it as the kids all start rushing outside. "You hand me her, so you can watch over them.”
“Of course.” you say, handing Okira to her then raising your right hand to your forehead, teleporting in front of Tatsu and Tomi as they're the furthest out. And as you appear, they crash directly into you suddenly.
“Oooof!” they both exclaim, losing their grip on each other's hand and falling down separated. “D-Dad?”

“Now hold on, not so fast.” you say, the others all rushing up to you and stopping as well. “You'll all go at the same time on my signal, okay?”
“Right!” the oldest twins say simultaneously.
“I'm ready!” Caulifla shouts, as excited as ever.
“Rea-ay!” Maz and Kayle shout, trying to sound in-sync as the older twins but not quite matching each other.
“Let's do this.” Chaya says, glancing aside to Broly. “Bigger shark wins?”
“Alright.” he replies, the two taking crouching stances ready to explode off the ground.

“Three, two, one.” you say, raising your arm slowly as you count down. Then you throw your arm down, and shout. “GO!”
“HAAA!” they all shout, everyone dashing straight off the beach and flying out into the ocean. Maz and Kayle drop down into the water first, followed closely by Caulifla. No doubt watching over her younger siblings, just in case. Broly and Chaya then both blitz down almost simultaneously, no doubt competing to get a certain prey first. But Tatsu and Tomi, once again linked together keep flying out, long after the others have already gone into the water.

“Don't stray out too far.” you tell the two of them, telepathically linking to their minds. “If you go too far, you could run into a-”

And then your head explodes in searing agony, you clutching your head and dropping to a knee as the unmistakable blast of a Mindslayer's telekinetic blast hits you through your link to the twins.

“Karn?!” Meloka shouts in surprise as you bring your right hand to your forehead against the pain ringing throughout your mind. “What happened?”
“I told them!” you snarl through clenched teeth, focusing on Tomitsu's massive conjoined ki. But the agony of the mental attack keeps you from focusing enough to teleport. You'll have to do this the old-fashioned way. “They went too far and ran into a damn Mindslayer! Dammit!”

Then without another word you blast off the beach as well, surging towards the older twins' ki. Looks like Mindslayer meat is back on the menu!

-Saiyan Conqueror Quest 171 paused-

>>5188162
Well we at least now have a reason to help the crab people get rid of the mindslayers

>>5188162
And that's it for this weekend, did you enjoy this episode so far? Ready to take down another monster, then see Freeza off as he finally departs New Salda on his next adventure? All this and more when episode 171 continues next Saturday, on Saiyan Conqueror Quest!

>>5188163
Yeah, they're a fucking nuisance. Best that we finally deal with them for good.
>>5188164
I enjoyed talking with Illumi. It's gonna be fun poking holes in his schemes.
He's about 20 years too young to even think about trying to pull one over on Karn.

>>5188163
As if you hadn’t promised them already
>>5188200
>for good
Not yet. But soon.
He’s smart, and on at least three layers if treachery

>>5188238
He's just smart enough to be a problem, but still too stupid realize he's not ready for this yet.
If he wanted to take a go at Karn he should have done it as soon as he found out Killua was slain.
Every day he waits just makes his already abysmal chances drop even lower.
The only good chance he's gonna get is when Karn is on his death bed.

>>5188245
>The only good chance he's gonna get is when Karn is on his death bed.
>"So old man, finally ready to die?"
>"Oh of course, it's why I told my family to leave."
>"Accepting your fate won't make it any less painful."
>"What the hell are you talking about? It'll be over in a flash."
>and then the bomb in his humongous chest explodes
Even in Karn's death assassins get btfo.

>>5188245
He’s clearly not looking to confront you head on. Did you forget his and his brother’s epilogue?
Also:
>implying Karn won’t go down swinging
>>5188253
>implying it wouldn’t be his own ki he explodes

>>5188333
>>implying it wouldn’t be his own ki he explodes
Come on we're trying to kill local assassins not local solar systems.

>>5188333
>He’s clearly not looking to confront you head on. Did you forget his and his brother’s epilogue?
Yet he thought he was good enough to waltz into our ship undetected when even Zeno couldn't.
That boy ain't right...

>>5188487
You know how kids are. They always think they're the hottest on the block.

>>5188497
Yeah. Killua sure did.

>>5188351
That’s all implying Karn will die old and in bed. That’s not the Saiyan way.
>>5188487
He thought he could go talk with Silver, he didn’t exactly sneak on board. If he were sneaking, his ki would have actually been undetectable.
>That boy ain't right...
True.
>>5188497
>>5188504
Rip bozo

>>5188520
>That’s all implying Karn will die old and in bed. That’s not the Saiyan way.
Neither was living in peace or pursuing anything besides conquering your enemies.
Times change.

>>5188520
We'll die shoulder deep in Pink Bitch, before old age gets us.

>>5188520
>That’s all implying Karn will die old and in bed. That’s not the Saiyan way.

>implying something out there could kill Karn
True boldness in distilled form.

>>5188520
>implying he won't die old and blowing up the time nest

>>5188788
>"THE TIME HAS COME YOU MISERABLE PINK BITCH!"
>"Y-you! You can't defy fate! I'll show you just how misguided you are!"
>"You might have stood a chance if you worked on your fitness you know."
>"...fitness?"
>"Fitnessdickinyourmouth."
>"Wha-"
>Karn detonates

>>5188555
Times do indeed change. But warriors are eternal.
>>5188582
Gross. Nobody wants to be in her
>>5188613
Well already there’s Hit, Jiren, SKoT, and himself that could do so easily.
>>5188788
Ha.
>>5188813
I fucking hate that those jokes have returned. I feel like I’m a kid back in school.

>>5188864
>I fucking hate that those jokes have returned. I feel like I’m a kid back in school.
They only came back because they still work. I guess that makes them classics if nothing else.

>>5187853
>Dragon’s can’t interfere with free will, see Goku refusing Shenron at the end of Namek arc
I thought that only applied because Goku was also too strong at that point for Shenron to enact his will upon without Goku's explicit permission.

>>5188864
>I fucking hate that those jokes have returned. I feel like I’m a kid back in school.
But its so perfectly juvenile to spite that smug bitch.

>>5188864
>that could do so easily
In theory.

>>5188877
And fair enough, but they’re on the same level as yo momma jokes.
>>5188896
Also a good point, and true enough. But wishes cannot directly force anyone to action(s) against their will. No falling in love, make someone murder someone, etc.
>>5188900
You’re trying to out-juvenile a literal adult child. Not a good contest.
>>5188984
Hit can kill SSB-tier enemies, with his Time Skip. And Jiren’s ungodly powerful.

>>5189039
>Hit can kill SSB-tier enemies, with his Time Skip. And Jiren’s ungodly powerful.
Yep. Nothing Karn hasn't seen before. S'why I said "In theory" instead of "yeah sure".

>>5189052
>S'why I said "In theory" instead of "yeah sure".
A better answer would be “for now”.

>>5189100
Pft we've already killed blue boys. Sure we needed THE JUICE to do it but hey. Still goes on the resume.

>>5189112
I can see why the Supreme Kunt of Time and her lackeys, as well as that cowardly god bitch whats-his-name are so scared of Karn. He hasn't even tapped into divine ki yet and is making blue hairs his bitch even with a powerlevel disadvantage. Once Beserker God is attained and controlled, it's all Ogre.

>>5189112
True enough, but it wasn’t YOUR power. That time.
>>5189121
SKoT knows how powerful a Karn can become

>>5189137
She knows how powerful her Karn became you mean.
I think this goes without saying, but we're blowing that alternate timeline Karn out of the water no matter what it takes.

>>5189137
>>5189147
We are for sure getting JACKED. The alternate Karn is a good milestone for how far we still need to go. May that glorious bastard rest in peace.

When we get to the time skip, could we vote for how much time we want the DDF and how much time we want to spend on wishes?

>>5189147
It may or may not be possible.
>>5189163
That’s like measuring yourself against Future Chaya.
>>5189244
That was already voted on, for the training you’ll do. But perhaps...

>>5189269
All the more reason to get stronger. Even though Future Chaya trains literally all the time. If Karn lived and breathed training, Future Chaya would be made of it. Poor girl needs some hobbies.

>>5189269
>That’s like measuring yourself against Future Chaya.
WHY. THE FUCK. NOT?
Every moment spent training towards that goal, even if it's impossible, will never be time wasted.

>>5189288
Well she certainly has one now.
>>5189322
Setting impossible standards isn’t good for anyone, better to set incremental goals you can eventually reach. Like Golden Freeza. You’re not going to catch someone who spends between 6 and 18 hours a DAY training herself physically
>inb4 -4 STR

>>5189907
>Setting impossible standards isn’t good for anyone
Neither is trying to face off against insurmountable odds, but we still do it anyways.

>>5189912
I meant for you and everyone else as players, not Karn IC. Unless you want to throw your life away, abandon the family you’ve raised and fully devote to training.

>>5189978
You have a good point. Better to set reasonable goals like making the Lin Kuei extinct for fucking with our friends and family. Makes me wonder what happened in that alternate Karn's life to be that strong. Also,
>throw your life away and your family
That's for suckers and cowards. Karn is a mass murdering family man. What's the point of being able to blow up planets if you can't spend quality time with those you care about?

>>5190012
>alternate Karn
Let’s just say he lost, SKoT made a deal with him, and brought him back to Conton City with his(smaller) family to devoted his time to fighting the Time Breakers.
Exactly. You need your family with you.

Also, who’s ready for another fun intermission? No, we’re not getting a Three Idiots runback, not yet anyways. Instead we’ll be taking a very different approach to comedy

>>5190493
Oh god, is he finding Spacech and learning how fucked this timeline is?

>>5190579
Spacechan*

>>5190579
Not yet, he’s still at the Crimson Demon village to travel to New Salda.

>>5190814
>He's moving to New Salda
Welp, guess he's gonna train one way or another if he wants to live on the biggest glorified military base disguized as a planet of monkey's, or he's gonna die. Hope he has fun talking to the Nerds in R&D, I bet he'd help them come up with all kinds of FUN.

>>5190818
Forget talking to anybody, the atmosphere will squash that poor boy into a grape if he doesn't have wibbly wobbly wizard magic protecting his squishy mage body.

>>5190842
If he is going to be seen in public with us or Tatsu forbid, the kids, he's going to get strong enough at minimum to get by or his ass won't last long. Let alone help King Vegeta, or hell only knows what the R&D department is doing on any given day.

>>5190818
>>5190842
>>5190861
He won’t be on New Salda long. Freeza’s leaving, after all.

>>5190866
Oh so he's only there for business, not becoming a citizen. For the best in the long run, he would get dragged into support work next siege because of his magic, if he doesn't die immediately.

>>5190868
His magic isn’t exactly at the level of useful yet, aside from Steal. But yes, remember he knows what earth and Namek look like, and most importantly how to aquire the wish

>>5191127
For his sake I hope he milks that check for his information and guidance for all its worth. I'd be honestly surprised if he doesn't try to steal a wish for himself. If he wishes for Kryptonian biology I'll be impressed
He knows about Ubo right?

>>5191132
>Implying our boy Frieza would let him weasel a wish for himself
>Implying Kazuma wouldn't get death beamed faster than he could say "panties"
He's opportunistic, but he isn't (completely) stupid. Right?

>>5190814
He...he knows how heavy Saiyan's like the gravity, right?

>>5191170
I mean a wish for a wish isn't really a bad trade. It's not like Frieza has much to lose by letting Kazuma sit around for a year before blowing the planet up to get rid of the balls.

>>5191132
He wants the easy life. Why would he endanger that?
>>5191170
Correct. And after spending some time with Freeza, and if he wants a wish, he’d know to ask as payment for providing the info.
>>5191241
He’s not standing on New Salda without magical assiatance.
>>5191243
Remember, if going to Namek, that’s 3

>>5191316
I just assume he'd rather go to Earth since there's a lot more stuff to do there than on Namek. Especially with Capsule Corp regularly breaking the laws of physics with their tech.

>>5191371
Why would that nerd Kazuma go back to shitty ass earth again when he's in the Dragon Ball x Other IPs universe? Plus, 3 wishes vs 1, pretty obvious if you ask me.

>>5191371
Biggest problem with Earth is FINDING them. Whereas on Namek there are 6 villages and Guru himself who each have one.
>>5191524
Capsule Corp has good tech.

>>5191623
>Biggest problem with Earth is FINDING them
So when Bulma meets Gohan, is she somehow gonna be able to convince him to come along and look for the other Dragon Balls?

>>5191674
Might depend on the shape the world’s in. And who finds Gohan first.

>>5191674
>Might depend on the shape the world’s in
Oh for sure, but I can't imagine it would be too bad right now unless Babidi decided to visit early.
>And who finds Gohan first
Even if Pilaf or the Red Ribbon Army managed to find Gohan before Bulma, it's not like he would help them.
They also couldn't actually hurt him given how he was stronger than Devilman and could go toe-to-toe with Goku even after he trained with Korin.

>>5191810
Without Goku speedrunning gathering the Dragon Balls for BOTH Pilaf and Bulma, who would get to them all first? Between April and September of Age 749, Bulma STARTS her search. Colonel Silver starts (in canon) his search April 18th, Age 750.

>>5191847
My OG DB knowledge is very, very limited, but I think Bulma would get a decent amount of dragonballs before dying to something like monster carrot

>>5191862
But who’s powers are stronger? General Blue or Monster Carrot? Could the Pilaf Trio beat either?

>>5191847
Pilaf.

-Saiyan Conqueror Quest 171 Intermission-

AGE 750, CRIMSON DEMON VILLAGE

“KAAAAAZUUUUUMAAAAAA!!” the most useless goddess wails, arms wrapped around your legs to prevent you from leaving. “You can't just leave! What about defeating the Demon King?”
“Screw the demon king!” you retort furiously. “This world has been nothing but trouble since you dragged me down here!”
“I dragged you? I dragged YOU?!” she shouts furiously, scrambling up and shouting in your face. “You dragged me down! I was perfectly fine living in heaven, spending my days in luxury before you had to ruin my life!”
“Kazuma, Aqua, please stop fighting.” Yunyun asks, her soft voice barely audible over Aqua's crying. But you both hear her, and turn towards the Crimson Demon archwizard a bit sheepishly.
“I wish you'd yell at me like that.” Darkness says, you seeing her cheeks are flushed and she's panting a bit in excitement. The damn pervert.

You are Satou Kazuma, a former neet-turned-isekai hero, vanquisher of the Demon King's most dangerous generals like Beldia and Vanir, and the Deadly Poison Slime Hans. And after the wedding of Yunyun's friend and childhood rival Megumin to a Saiyan of all things, you'd finally met the emperor of the universe himself: Lord Freeza. And to your surprise he was actually quite amicable, not wanting to play the sorts of power games you'd thought he'd want to play. Instead he was very direct, wanting to know what you wanted and your price. Which, honestly was a relief after dealing with certain types of people. So you'd told him of the Dragonballs, the seven magical orbs capable of granting almost any wish. At first he'd seemed to think you'd merely been spinning a tale, but then his SAIYAN GENERAL Karn convinced Freeza that they really exist. Which, if that doesn't convince someone just how crazy this reality is, you aren't sure what would.

“Pervert.” you say flatly to Darkness, who “Nyas” in excited embarrassment as you turn your focus back to the biggest pain in your ass since you'd been reincarnated into this world. “And as for you, absolutely not. You aren't responsible enough to be in Lord Freeza's presence for more than a few minutes, much less be unsupervised on his ship for a whole voyage. Last thing I need is you breaking a life support system and suffocating everyone on board out in space. You're staying here, end of discussion. And furthermore-!”

But before you can say anything else there is a blinding flash of light, and a figure straight out of your childhood appears!

>>5191943
“T-T-Trunks?!” you shout in astonishment, falling back in shock as the powerful half-Saiyan time traveler appears. He's not dressed in his Capsule Corp jacket that you'd first seen him in all those years ago. Instead he's wearing a long black coat, hands covered in gloves and with his hair long like it was the first time he fought Cell in that Ultra buff Super Saiyan form. And he doesn't look happy. “Wh-What the hell are you doing way out here?”

“I'm back for my sword.” he says, holding out his gloved hand as you nervously rise back to your feet. “I'd appreciate it if you handed that back now, and didn't put up a fight about it.”
“I knew you would be back for it, so I kept it safe for you.” you lie through your teeth, unbuckling the sheath from around you and holding it out to him. “Here.”
“Appreciate it.” he says, taking the sword and with practiced ease slings it over his back. The buckle snaps shut, the half-Saiyan giving you a nod. Then, almost as if it's an afterthought his brows furrow as he looks at you. “I know who you're going to help, and I don't approve of you using your knowledge in this way.”

As he says this you gulp nervously, worried that he's going to interfere with your plan for an easy life somehow. But instead he continues talking, instead giving you a dire warning.

“I can't say I agree with helping Freeza of all people get a wish on the Dragonballs.” Trunks continues, looking incredibly pensive. “Giving a tyrant like him immortality will undoubtedly cause incredible suffering in this timeline. If you want to live through this, heed my advice. If you're going to go through with this, don't betray him. You can't fathom the depths of Freeza's power, especially now. In this timeline, he has actually spent time training and furthering his power. Even Super Saiyan Blue Goku was bested by the power he possesses now.”
“Wait, what? A blue Super Saiyan?” you ask him, confused. “What sort of fanfiction garbage is that?”
“It's the state beyond Super Saiyan God.” Trunks says, and his body is immediately consumed by flames! You and everyone else leap back, and as he appears from within his blazing aura you see he's changed. His purple hair is now a bright crimson, eyes red as well as he appears to have greatly slimmed down. Even his gloves don't quite fit right, Trunks grabbing them and pulling them further onto his hands one at a time. “It's a power that rivals even deities.”

“Now hold on. Are you saying that there are mortals who can rival a goddess like me?” Aqua asks, you groaning internally. And for a moment, can't help but visualize Trunks saving you from her by giving her the Mecha Freeza treatment. “I find that hard to believe.”
“Then see for yourself.” Trunks says, holding out his hand towards her.

Aqua, in her clueless way walks right up to him and places her hand down in his own, as if a royal expecting a kiss to the back of it. But as she touches him, from her reaction you'd think she'd grabbed onto an electric fence. Aqua immediately leaps back with a shout, clutching her hand while her eyes stay locked onto Trunks, wide with what could be fear.

“N-No way! YOU'RE the next Supreme Kai of Time?!” she shouts, you looking between them in confusion as she begins bowing repeatedly. “I-I-I-I didn't know, please forgive my insolence! It won't happen again, I promise!”
“Supreme Kai of Time?” you mutter, hand going to your chin as you ponder the implications of this. If there's a Supreme Kai over time itself, then are there more Kais? A Kai for everything? Does that make Aqua technically a Kai since she's a deity? No, that can't be it. Kami wasn't a Kai, yet he was the God of Earth. Perhaps Aqua's just a lesser deity, subservient to the Kais?
“I've been here too long.” Trunks says, giving Aqua a shallow bow back then once more disappearing in a flash of light. And just as swiftly as he appeared, he's gone. Leaving behind only more and more questions that keep piling up in your mind.

“K-Kazuma! It's time!” Yunyun calls out, you all turning to see that a dark portal has opened up beside her. Come on, we don't want to be late.”
“Alright. Darkness, keep an eye on Aqua while we're gone.” you say, and start walking towards Yunyun. “We shouldn't be gone for more than a cou-GAAAAA!”

You're interrupted by the most useless goddess actually tackling you from behind, and knocking the two of you and poor Yunyun THROUGH the portal! And the instant you leave the world you were isekai'd to, you're flattened like a ton of bricks just landed on your back. Fortunately you land on something soft and very nice-smellling, you getting the unmistakable scent of Yunyun flooding directly into your brain, and consider this an excellent way to die. Far better than any of the others, 9/10 would recommend. Then after a moment the extreme gravity simply disappears.

“Sorry about that, I wasn't expecting you all to rush through like that yet.” an oddly familiar voice says, and as you rise to your feet and turn to face New Salda's Guardian feel your jaw hit your ankles. No way it's actually her, that's impossible. What is Raven doing here of all places?! “So I didn't have the anti-gravity spell up and running yet.”
“Ooof! This gravity's intense!” Darkness calls, stepping through the portal as well. Her armored boots smash into the sand beside the three of you, you looking up and seeing an all-too-familiar look in her eyes. Oh lord she's LIKING this!

>>5191947
“It's quite alright.” Yunyun says out of breath, you remembering your manners long enough to turn and help her up to her feet. And for some reason her cheeks are flushed, which makes you blush as well knowing full well what heaven you'd landed in. Or rather in between. “One moment. “Gravity Magic: Gravity Normalization!”

You feel your only useful party member's magic washing over you, and coating the four of you in a layer of sparkling red motes of light while outlining your body. You turn towards Raven as her portal shuts, you unable to stop staring at this childhood star standing there before you all just as you remembered. Well, almost as you'd remembered, with one notable difference. That being her legs. You can't help but stare at the woman's exposed, very muscular thighs that help you suddenly sympathize with those anonymous message board dwellers who'd claimed wanting their head crushed between a pair of thighs. She catches you looking, and her eyes narrow into the more familiar bored-seeming gaze that'd enraptured you years ago.

“Can I help you?” she asks flatly.
“Raven, right? You're really Raven.” you say, her eyes widening in shock. “What're you doing all the way out here?”
“How-? Who are you, and how do you know who I am?” she asks, you realizing this Raven has no idea about the show you'd watched years ago, nor what may be coming to her life in the future. You have to warn her!
“That's not important right now.” you say, stepping forward and clasping her hands between your own and holding them up between you. “What does matter is that I understand. I know what it's like to live with the shadow of a terrible father looming over your head. But you're stronger than him, Trigon only has as much power over you as you give him.”

“You know of my father, but not of his fate?” Raven asks, and now it's your turn to be surprised. “Thank you for your concern, but you're clearly out of the loop. Trigon died years ago, slaughtered on this very planet by... my friend, Karn.”
“Wait wait wait, HE killed Trigon?” you ask, shocked. You knew the Legendary Super Saiyan power was incredible, but strong enough to defeat and kill Trigon the Terrible?”
“Yes. But you shouldn't keep speaking his name.” she says, expression growing darker. “Or you could attract their attention.”

“It's far too late for that, dear sister.” a sinister, yet smooth voice says, the five of you turning and seeing a trio of crimson-skinned demons walking towards the five of you. Well, shit. This can't possibly end well.

-Saiyan Conqueror Quest 171 Intermission End-

>>5191948
Ahhh, goddammit Kazuma. Who's ready for a rousing round of demon slaughtering?

>>5191960
You say that like this isn’t happening WHILE you’re off hunting some Mindslayer. But here’s a good question: Where’s Ubo during all this?

>>5191976
ZGiven how often Karn comes up when Kazuma is corrected or asks for clarification on something, is he starting to realize just how much the events of this timeline revolve around Karn?

>>5191994
He’s “realized” more than you think. And is very furious at Aqua for this. He thinks this “Karn” is someone else isekai’d from Japan with Broly’s Legendary Super Saiyan power as their perk. Which does explain why he’s so much more bitter with Aqua than in canon, because he didn’t get that option.

>>5192007
I can see why he'd make that assumption given that there's actually a Dragonball Isekai manga with very similar plot points.

>>5191943
>>5191943
>>5191943

>>5192214
Oh, finally off ban.

>>5191947
Boi has no right to give anybody warnings, let alone claim best Freeza gives a shit about immortality anymore.
>Her armored boots smash into the sand beside the three of you, you looking up and seeing an all-too-familiar look in her eyes. Oh lord she's LIKING this!
Damnit Darknes, we can't even hit her with a newspaper in this gravity without getting her off.
>>5191948
Kazuma better hope nobody looks in his head and ask questions.
>“It's far too late for that, dear sister.” a sinister, yet smooth voice says, the five of you turning and seeing a trio of crimson-skinned demons walking towards the five of you. Well, shit. This can't possibly end well.
I hope he wins using Aqua as a club of holy magic and they leave looking as dumb as he and Aqua will.

>>5192007
That is a fair assumption too make, problem is I think he's giving her to much credit in thinking of something like that.

>>5192029
He’s also not yet been with ‘Chris’ recovering all the other abandoned cheats scattered across the land.
>>5192227
He thinks your Freeza is just another Freeza.
>using Aqua as a club of holy magic
Ha!
>>5192228
He’s more upset he didn’t get a good powerup of magic item.

>>5192246
>He thinks your Freeza is just another Freeza.
>Trunk's
>Think
You know how you lie in the same sentence as a joke, but its not funny? This is that time.
>He’s more upset he didn’t get a good powerup of magic item.
Too be fair, damn near anything would be better than Aqua, she's basically a tool with a mouth and barely useful holes. And she still cost more money!

24 hours until this episode continues! Ready to save your kids most-sensitive to a Mindslayer attack, and say your goodbye for now to Freeza?

>>5192269
I dunno, I had a chuckle.
Which, seeing just what universe he’s fallen down into, is it any wonder he’s even MORE upset with her than he was canonically? Stands, DBZ, and who knows what else, only to have HER? I’d be upset I got the most expensive revive machine ever too.

>>5192360
Revives are cheap, just give up your soul and sanity to become the most overworked baby sitter.

>>5192360
>24 hours until this episode continues!
SOON.
Very SOON.
Can't wait to see the continuation of the events from the episode and intermission.
>>5187853
>Dragon’s can’t interfere with free will, see Goku refusing Shenron at the end of Namek arc
>>5189039
>Also a good point, and true enough. But wishes cannot directly force anyone to action(s) against their will. No falling in love, make someone murder someone, etc.
That seems like it applies to Dragon Balls from Namek and Earth.
I'm not sure it is like this with other sets.
Black Star Dragon Balls granted Pilaf's wish to turn Goku into a child. If Goku could refuse Shenron at the end of Namek ark why it did not happen here? Ultimate Shenron just made the wish happen without bothering to ask Goku about any consent.
This seems to be even more of a case with Super Dragon Balls. They are said to be able to grant "any wish". Sounds like Super Shenron fulfills the wish no matter what. I'm sure Goku would object to body swapping with Zamasu if he had anything to say about it.

>Let’s just say he lost, SKoT made a deal with him, and brought him back to Conton City with his(smaller) family to devoted his time to fighting the Time Breakers.
I'm very curious about who remained alive from his family, but I know that would be too much of a spoiler.
How was he when he was there?
Was he staying there reluctantly because he had nowhere else to go or did he truly became a Time Patroller?
What kind of Time Patroller Karn was?
Did he became a poster boy of the Time Patrol like Ace or Trunks did?
Was he truly believing in Supreme Kai of Time's ideas and goals?
I know he became a real friends with Dumplin (I remember you said that Dumplin is looking for a way to bring him back).

>>5193091
It seems to be more like, the Dragonballs can't influence your actions, changing your body or someone else's is clearly on the table, no consent required.

>>5192363
Poor Kazuma. At least he has Yunyun in this timeline.
>>5193091
SOON indeed.
Turning into a child isn’t something a person CAN do, doesn’t apply here. Same with body swapping. As Ginyu can swap bodies with even exponentially stronger beings, especially with Guldo’s help. And yes, Super Shenron doesn’t have the same limitations as the lesser imitations.
Can’t spoil the previous timeline too much, for future revelations. But Karn wasn’t exactly happy with his situation, and only warmed up to those who could fight alongside him.
>>5193094
Yes. Remember, the Dragonballs are limited by the power of their creator. Swapping bodies is something even a Namekian Frog can accomplish, and a Stand with no physical power can undo someone’s time and revert them to their infancy, or ever completely.

>>5193131
>At least he has Yunyun in this timeline.
YunYun is a good girl that is more than Kazuma deserves, but he works for it by being shackled with squirt bitch. And Masochist Bitch Pig. She'll make him better....relatively speaking.

He deserves at least one competent ally

Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

After a week of spending time with Towa and each of his half-demon children in the demoness's lab, Karn and his family returned to their own timeline only to be awoken early in the morning by an uneasy feeling. After a short search Karn discovered one of Silva Zoldyck's children, Illumi, confronting the former Lin Kuei assassin Silver. After speaking with the Zoldyck and lying to him about the location of the cursed amulet of Shinnok, Karn then took his family out fishing. But everything is not peaceful, the oldest twins Tatsu and Tomi venturing too far from the mainland and are attacked by a vicious Abyssal beast known as a Mindslayer. And as we rejoin Karn, you've just blasted off the beach after the twins, ready to destroy the Dark beast assaulting your children.

“Dammit.” you seethe through clenched teeth, still holding your head as the aftereffects of the beast's psychic assault still ring in your skull. Despite taking such hits several times now, being unprepared still leaves you in searing agony. Which you can only imagine how painful it was for your preteen twins, who's minds are linked on a level you don't fully understand amd haven't been hit with it before.
“Dad? What's wrong?” Broly shouts as you blaze past, your son holding a giant now-headless shark over his head.
“Keep your siblings back!” you shout, blitzing past him then with a deep breath dive into the sea yourself. Locked onto your twins' ki signature, thankfully they're still together, but they aren't alone. You can sense at least three Mindslayers by them, each more powerful than the last circling the twins. You have to save them, NOW!

But how do you do this?
>Rush in and attack, slaughter these beasts with your hands
>Draw your blade, channel your ki into it, and cut them down with your power combined with the sword's
>Ignore the Mindslayers, grab the twins now and blitz back out of the water before trying to fight these things
>Use your telekinesis to throw the kids up and out of the water, dive down between the Mindslayers and unleash a Super Explosive Wave to destroy all three simultaneously

As you're deciding what to do, the weakest of the psychic fish turns, lunging towards the twins with its jaws wide. You have to move now!

"No you don't!" you try and shout, bubbles escaping your mouth as twinned beams of energy fire forth from your eyes. The lunging Mindslayer is caught completely unaware, your beams piercing down directly through the top of the beast's head. After it pierces out through the underside of it's head, you focus and ready yourself to redirect the beam. The other two Mindslayers see what's going on, and one lunges towards your kids while the largest, most powerful beast begins charging directly towards you. You have to choose which to save first, you or your kids. Which is an easy decision, you angling the twin Eye Beams directly towards the second beast trying to attack your kids. The Mindslayer's mouth opens wide, ready to devour your oldest twins whole! But your beams are far faster than the Mindslayer, both piercing directly through it's mouth and out the top of the monster's head.

“Oooooooooaaaaaaa!!” you hear, as the third monster's mouth opens wide as it closes the distance between the two of you. And with your beams so far away, they wouldn't reach you before the beast's teeth will. So you have to do something.
“Dammit!” you seethe, and try something you haven't done before. As the largest Mindslayer closes in, you try redirecting your beams while ALSO dodging the beast's sword-like teeth. You dash aside to your left as the Mindslayer's massive jaws snap shut, you narrowly avoiding getting bitten by the giant creature. Now! “HAAAAAA!”

Bubbles explode out of your mouth as you redirect your beams for a final time, reorienting your twin piercing beams up towards the Mindslayer from behind. Before the monster can turn back towards you, your beams fire up through the beast's backside and out through it's mouth! It wails in agony, you reorienting your beams again and twisting them around, piercing down through the top of the Abyssal creature's head. It's agonized cry is cut short as the beast dies, you ending your attack. The aftereffects of the psychic assault are still ringing in your head, but you shake it off and keep focusing on the goal: Tatsu and Tomi are still down here. You reorient on the twins, and quickly swimming down grab onto each of the twins with a hand each then blast up towards the surface. They're been down here too long, they need to breathe and soon!

You dash towards the surface, and in under a second break free of the sea's grasp. You take a deep breath, and look over the twins. Your blood runs cold as you realize that neither is breathing!

"Dammit, they probably swallowed water when they got hit." you say, thinking aloud as you try and think your way through to a solution. "Gotta get it out of them."

As you say it aloud, you realize that getting the seawater out of them is a good first step. So, without hesitation you flip both of the kids over, holding them both upside-down by the backs of their armor. Then you realize that this will have to be done one at a time. So you take Tatsu in your left hand, and hold him with your tail to then fully focus on Tomi hanging limply in your hand. You'll have to do this right. Switching to holding her by the ankles, you then begin patting her on the back, trying to dislodge the water she doubtlessly swallowed.

“C'mon kiddo, you gotta wake up.” you say, increasing the force you're slapping her back with. Her body remains limp and unmoving. “Wake up Tomi, wake up!”
“Kuuuaah!” she suddenly coughs, water exploding out of her mouth. She coughs violently for several seconds, you just holding her by the ankles and watching her closely. She keeps sputtering, taking labored breaths between violent coughs. “Kaah! D-Dad? Whaa...Tatsu? Where's Tatsu?!”
“Hold on kiddo, I gotta save your brother too.” you tell her, laying Tomi over your right shoulder then holding him how you'd held her. And as you'd done with your daughter, you again start slapping your son on the back. You strike him repeatedly, keeping a steady rhythm with your slaps to his back.

“What happened?” she asks as you keep striking Tatsu's back. “Where are we?”
“The two of you got attacked by Mindslayers.” you say, eyes focused on your son as you continue trying to dislodge the water he swallowed. “Luckily for the two of you, I was linked with your minds as they attacked. Else we wouldn't have realized anything bad had happened.”
“KAAAAA!” Tatsu coughs explosively, water spraying all over you. He tries taking a breath but keeps coughing, struggling to breathe.
“C'mon kiddo, fight through it.” you say to him. “Don't give up, keep fighting!”
“You can do it! Don't you dare quit!” Tomi shouts, Tatsu struggling for several more seconds before his breathing finally begins evening out. “Tatsu!”
“Tomi? Whaaa...?” he asks, clearly confused as your daughter lunges off your shoulder and slams into him. The two embrace, you letting Tatsu go as she's holding onto him. “Dad? What happened? What's going on?”

“The two of you got too close to the open ocean, and the Mindslayers got you both.” you say. “Luckily I was here just in time, or they would have eaten you both.”
“Oh.” he says, sounding rather defeated. “And they probably ate what we found, too.”
“Wait, what about the big monsters?” Tomi asks you. “Can we bring those back to eat?”

Well?

"No, you guys didn't take them down. So, you don't get to claim and eat them." you say, to the twins' clear disappointment. "But we're not just going to leave them here. C'mon, everyone grab one. We're going to be making a delivery today."
“A delivery?” they ask, voices once again perfectly in-sync. “To who?”
“The Rak'kari.” you answer, taking a deep breath and diving straight down into the water. As you descend, and feel their combined ki submerge a second or two behind you, you reach out telepathically to both Broly and Meloka.

“They're okay, I got the twins.” you think to both of them. “Making a quick detour, then we'll be back. Maybe five minutes?”
“That's good.” Broly answers, his relief apparent through the mental link. But even clearer is Meloka's displeasure, your wife clearly having been worried about this very thing happening. But she doesn't respond, instead ending the mental link after a moment.
“We'll be back shortly.” you tell him, and end the connection as the first body appears in your sight through the bloody haze of the water. You swim down past it, seeing a second one right by it and keep diving deeper.

A few seconds later you find the third body, blood oozing out through the head wound as it lays on the sandy ocean bottom. You swim down, grabbing the beast by the tail, and begin swimming back up towards the surface. As you ascend, you see Tatsu and Tomi have both become Super Saiyans, each one holding one beast as they dash back up to the surface. You rise up and match their pace, the three of you all breaking through the waves simultaneously. Taking a deep breath, you hear one of them coughing and turn worriedly. You see your son Tatsu coughing into his hand, reminding you uncannily of your old man.

“Alright Tatsu, Tomi. Follow me.” you tell them, focusing your ki sense and orienting on the Rak'kari's city further out to sea. You take off at a reasonable pace, one the twins can easily match, and within a minute the crab people's city is directly below you. “Here we are. Everyone take a deep breath, and let's go.”
