Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

The day of Chaya's greatest challenge arrived, Karn taking his daughter Caulifla along to witness the battle. After crash landing, Chaya engaged the metal men before having the duel of her life against her second, General Tanya Degurechaff for the title of Champion. When all was said and done, Tanya was still standing while Chaya was unconscious and bleeding out. Karn took his dethroned, nearly-murdered daughter Chaya home, along with Caulifla and Raditz. After getting Chaya in a pod to be observed by Dr. White, Karn agreed to let the twins go out on their own missions once they gather a team.

The next day, Karn visits his eldest daughter to see that she's awake, but doesn't remember how the fight went down. Raditz breaks it to her that she's lost, Chaya determined to get the rematch immediately to reclaim her title. However, you'd forced her to train first, promising that if she still felt up to it afterwards she could go. Which doesn't last long in her weakened state. Karn returned her to Dr. White for a more thorough analysis, then reached out to the one being who could help him retrieve his sword. And as we rejoin Karn, the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness Aku has just agreed to help.

“With that seal I've put over the Abyss there on your world, only I and my daughters can travel through it.” he says to you, which is surprising. When he'd put the seal down behind him, you'd been under the impression that it had become . “No other beings from the Abyss can pass through. Unless, of course, someone on your side were to somehow damage or destroy the seal.”
“It can be destroyed?” you ponder to yourself for a moment, and consider asking Chilli to look it over and add his own magical protections as well next time he swings by.
“Anyways, I can be there shortly.” Aku continues. “Probably within a few minutes, at most.”
“Alright, I'll see you then.” you reply, Aku ending the mental link. You only have a few minutes at most before he arrives, probably not enough time to get much of anything important done.

But what do you do?
>Head to the entrance to the catacombs, and give whoever's on watch the heads up before Aku can surprise them
>Telepathically reach out to the Rak'kari champion, and see if anything's changed with where the Abyss was since the day before yesterday
>Go talk with Silver first, and see what he'd recommend as far as foods helping restore Chaya's strength quicker and aid her recovery
>See if Meloka's awake, and let her know what's happening as well as Chaya's condition first before Aku arrives

But you do have one thing to do first. And so you keep walking down the hall, heading directly to your room. If Meloka's not awake yet, you'd better catch her up on everything. You quickly return to your bedroom, and as the door opens you see your wife is awake. But she's not the only one, your kids all getting dressed.

“Mornin' hun.” Meloka says without looking up, finishing dressing Okira on the bed while holding Karn Jr. with her tail. “Is Chaya up?”
“She was.” you tell her, Meloka's gaze immediately snapping towards you. “But she wanted to try and head back to Dreadzone. So I took her for my morning workout, but she couldn't even get through the warm up at thirty. She's back with Dr. White now, and he's checking her over.”
“That's not good.” she mutters, turning back to Okira and forcing a smile back on her face. “We'll go check in on Chaya after breakfast, huh?”
“Mmmm hmmm.” Okira replies, murmuring and nodding in the affirmative. She's still not very vocal, but your daughter's been slowly improving.

“I'll leave them to you then Mel, I have something to do first.” you tell her. “Aku's coming by, he'll be helping me get my sword back.”
“Oh, okay.” she replies, Broly and Caulifla looking over to you curiously.
“If I were to take the sword out of that dragon's corpse, it could revive.” you explain to them. “Like that one from years ago.”
“The one you, Freeza, an' King Vegeta took down, right?” Caulifla asks, remembering back. “Wait, were they family?”
“Far as I can tell, the one that was inside the M'lurnian ruins is the child of the one I killed the other day.” you tell her. “So Aku's coming by to eat it up, and keep it from reviving.”

“Wait, hold on. Won't Aku absorb that thing's power if he does?” your son asks, observant as ever. You see a hint of fear in his eyes, no doubt remembering just how much damage he caused during the Siege of New Salda. “Wouldn't that make him even stronger and more dangerous?”
“It most certainly will. He told me that the Abyss Dragon bested him in battle before.” you tell him seriously. “Aku absorbing that thing's power will undoubtedly make him an even greater threat, should he ever betray us. But that sword is the ONE weapon that can defeat him. Without that weapon, more power or not, I doubt anyone could stop him. Even Lord Freeza.”

“And he's taking the trade, more power in exchange for securing the weapon that could kill him away in an ally's hands.” Broly ponders aloud, hand to his chin. “That's a good deal, I can see why he'd help you get it back.”
“Exactly.” you reply, impressed at your son's grasp of the situation. “So I'll be busy for the next little bit, you all watch out for each other and your sister okay?”
“Will do.” Broly says with a nod.
“I will!” Caulifla calls out excitedly, you walking over to Meloka and kissing her before turning to the younger twins.
“You two behave for your mother, okay?” you ask them, both the twins answering in the affirmative.

Turning from your kids, you then head out of the room, With no time to waste you take off at a jog, quickly running down the hall and out of your ship before taking to the air. You kick off the sandy ground, blasting off towards the mainland and soaring through the air towards the M'lurnian Ruins' opening. Once the giant hole is below you you drop through the air, landing beside the Saiyans guarding the pit. You recognize them, faintly, both warriors starting at your sudden appearance.

“K-Karn?” Cele asks, jumping a bit in surprise at your sudden arrival.
“General.” Kabuya says, both younger warriors looking from the pit towards you. “What brings you here?”

Well? What do you tell them?
>Let them know Aku's coming through momentarily, and to not attack him on sight

"Just going around checking on everything." you tell her, the woman dropping her salute. "Anything to report?”
“Just a moment ago, before you arrived I thought I heard something.” Kabuya continues, the older of the two women's brows furrowing. “I can't explain it, but it sounded ominous.”
“I heard it too.” Cassa adds. “And ever since, the hairs on the back of my neck have been standing up. But if you're here, then....”
“Then what?” you ask her, a bit confused.
“Your reputation precedes you, General Karn.” Kabuya interrupts. “If you show up somewhere, when someone else has a bad feeling, it means something's about to go down.”

Then as one the two women clench their fists, transforming into Super Saiyans with a pair of shouts. Their golden auras blaze to life around them, but as they do, you hear it. An all-too familiar noise.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FzSVnrHXa0

“Wh-What is that?” Cassa asks, turning from you to Kabuya and back. “Do you guys hear it too?”
“Something's coming!” Kabuya answers, both women turning towards the pit. You know who's coming, but decide against warning them. Instead, you decide to stay back, and see how they handle this. “Get ready!”

Then the instant Aku's body, made of eternal darkness starts rising up out of the pit, they go on the attack. Cassa throws up a massive orb of energy, while Kabuya takes a more straightforward approach.

“KABUYA KANNON!!” she roars, firing a surprisingly powerful pink beam directly at the shapeshifter's center mass. Her sudden attack catches Aku by surprise, blasting a hole straight through his head. “NOW!”
“HAAAA!!” Cassa bellows, throwing both arms down towards the ground as Kabuya's beam ends. And as she does, her giant orb fires a massive beam straight down onto the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness. Her attack comsumes him entirely, and in fact her beam is the size of the hole leading down into the catacombs itself. Leaving him no room to escape. Her giant orb expends itself, leaving both women panting a bit from the sudden exertion. “Wha-What the. Hell. Was that?”
“It's not over, keep your eyes forward!” Kabuya orders, not looking back as she then addresses you. “What is that General?”

“You didn't recognize him?” you ask, both women starting and turning back towards you. But you don't address them, instead calling down into the catacombs below. “Sorry about that, I hadn't told them yet to be expecting you, Aku.”

“AKU?!” they both shout in surprise, and after a moment Aku begins rising up and out of the underground once more. But this time he's far more cautious, slowly rising up out to eye level, looking over you all.
“You could have given me a warning, at least.” Aku says, mildly annoyed at having taken their attacks. And seeing that the two women aren't going to just attack him again, he keeps rising back up and out of the hole. “A rude way to greet your guest, Karn.”
“I just wanted to make sure they were ready for a fight, should something else crawl up and out of there.” you say, offering Aku your hand. He rises fully up and out of the pit, landing beside you and shifting down into a humanoid form roughly fifteen feet tall and grasping your hand in his own. “How would you rate them?”

“Hrmmm. For speedy response, I'll give you ladies a nine.” he says after shaking your hand, letting you go and turning to face them. “Minus points for the self-named attack, however. Narcissism isn't something to brag about, especially if your attack is just a generic beam.”
“Well fuck you too.” she responds, crossing her arms grumpily. You can tell she's annoyed with both of you, but clearly is keeping her mouth shut about her annoyance. However, Cassa isn't as self-controlled.
“What the hell Karn? Would a heads up be too much to ask for?” she says angrily. “We're not suppposed to attack allies, we could get in a shitload of trouble for this!”

“If there's any repercussions from this, send them directly to me.” you reply casually. “I'll take full responsibility.”

Neither woman has anything to say to that, you turning your attention back to the self-proclaimed Master of Masters.

“So, General Karn, where are we headed?” Aku asks you.

Well?

"Out to sea." you tell him, slowly rising up and off of the ground. Aku's body stretches to match your altitude, then the rest of him snaps up to match. His entire body morphs into a ball, then after a moment shifts into a new, birdlike form. “Let's go.”
“Following your lead.” he replies, and the two of you take off. Flying side by side, the two of you quickly leave the continent behind and fly out over the open water. “Your planet is a beautiful one, friend. A shame I don't own one like this as well.”

“Well, Tatsu and Tomi are looking to take on a conquering mission.” you tell him. “So when they gather a crew and are ready to head out, perhaps they'll conqueror one similar to this one.”
“I see. Perhaps I'll have to take another look at which worlds are set for conquering.” Aku says. Then after a fem moments silence speaks up again. “So...How is Chaya doing? I saw her fight, and it looks like she was roughed up pretty badly.”
“She'll live.” you reply,frowning a bit as you can sense the two of you flying over the Rak'kari settlement. Won't be long until you both need to dive. “But she's really upset about losing her title. Had to stop her from going there today in the shape she was in. If she went for the rematch in her condition, Tanya would have no doubt killed her.”

“She's still in such shape?” he asks you, concerned. “Even after your daughter healed her? Did she not go into a pod upon you bringing her back?”
“Yes, almost immediately.” you respond. “But she's still not recovered. We think it has something to do with Tanya's magic. She stole her power from some sort of god, according to the Supreme Kai, and it may have stopped some of Caulifla's healing from working.”
“If her healing is divine in nature, it could be....” Aku mutters, then ponders quietly for a moment. “Perhaps I should take a look, once our business is done?”
“I'd appreciate it.” you reply, then come to a stop where you think the trench is. Or at least close enough to find it. “Alright, give me a moment. Its a ways down, and I'll need all the air I can breathe.”
“Nonsense. Here, let me help you!” Aku says cheerfully, and immediately shoots out a pair of energy beams from his eyes. Before you can react, they stop short, and quickly form a sphere of glowing energy around you. Easily twice as large around as you are tall, Aku then reaches out with a sharp talon'd foot and grabs the shield. “There. One airtight barrier. Now, let's go and grab your sword!”

With you firmly in his grip Aku drops down into the sea, the water splashing off ineffectively against the barrier around you he created. And true to his word, Aku's shield is completely watertight. Sighing out a bit in relief, you watch as the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness changes his form once more. This time he takes on the shape of an eight-legged sea monster, one that looks oddly similar to the mutated krakens you'd fought as he begins swimming deeper. His entire body in this form is used to rapidly swim, you calling out as you see the trench.

“There! It was down in the trench.” you call out, Aku shaping one of his tentacles into a thumbs up somehow as he swims down into the gap. Without the Abyssal darkness radiating from it, it just looks like a normal trench, but then you start to see it. Bodies still line the trench, those of the Rak'kari smashed and splattered against the rocky walls from the battle with the two giant Abyssals. But Aku doesn't slow down, you barely getting a moment to process this as he dives deeper and deeper. Then after several moments he swims down into the familiar looking cavern, then stops as he looks around confused. He then turns one giant eye towards you, brow still flaming somehow as he looks to you.

“Now where do we go?” he asks, you looking around uncertainly. When you'd been down here before, you hadn't exactly paid a whole lot of attention to where you were going as you'd been focused on the individual ki of the Rak'kari warriors instead.

Well? What now?
>Down. You'd dropped further down after being led to a narrow ledge leading to a round arena like area. Wherever the dragon's corpse is, it will be at the bottom

"Down." you reply, looking towards the walls for any opening that leads deeper. "We were led deeper into the darkness and cornered after coming to a round arena like area."
"I see. Well then, deeper it is." Aku says, and dives down into one of the holes in the floor. As he does, you focus your own energy and let your emerald aura blaze up to illuminate the darkness. Aku's flaming eyebrows didn't exactly wholly light the way, so your own aura blazing vastly increases your ability to see. “If you see the platform you're familiar with, let me know.”

“Will do.” you reply, keeping your head moving as you keep your head on a swivel. You look around as Aku swims, heading deeper and deeper down into the rocky cave. As he moves you start to see several more broken Rak'kari bodies, their forms crunched as if grabbed by giant hands. And remembering back to how their ki signatures would suddenly vanish as you were gathering the Rak'kari for the final confrontation, it seems that this was the fate of those you didn't reach in time. The poor bastards. Further and further down Aku leads you, until you suddenly recognize where you are. “What's that?”
“Did you find it? Have you found....” Aku asks, stopping in place and grabbing onto several of the rocks nearby to stop in place. He sees what you see, judging from his voice trailing off as there is, somehow, a giant double door seemingly hewn from the rocks directly into the wall. “Ohhh. Perhaps this doorway is important?”
“It would seem so.” you reply as Aku drifts over, setting you down before shifting into a powerful looking shape. Eighty percent of this form's body is its chest and arms, Aku driving both hands into the doors to try and drive them open. But, to both of your surprise, they don't budge. “Here, let me handle this. HRAAA!!”

With a roar you once more Ascend, muscles swelling as you retake your largest, most powerful form you can reliably take. Then you reach out, both with your hands and with your mind and grab onto the doors with your telekinesis. Then with a roar, you throw everything you have against the sealed doors.

“HRRRAAAA!!” you bellow, pushing with everything you've got. The two doors are incredibly heavy, neither moving while you try and move both. So, instead of pushing against them both, you focus on just one. They lead to the same place, after all, so there's no need to waste energy moving them both. Shoving everything you've got against the right door; you finally feel it beginning to move as it slowly grinds against the ground. Then, once the seal is broken, you feel the door sliding open more easily and you're able to shove it open enough for you and your shield to easily get through. But as you release your telekinetic grip, sighing out from the exertion, you notice an odd light radiating out from the room beyond. Aku sees it first, the two of you sharing a look.

“There is something incredibly powerful beyond this door.” he tells you suddenly, seeming almost nervous. “I can feel its magic from here. Whatever this door was sealing away, it is made of ancient magic. Perhaps we should turn back, and ignore whatever the flashy blue light is.”
“Like hell.” you reply. “If it is a powerful magical artifact, I should definitely grab it. If nothing else, I'm sure my son Chilli would love to examine it. Let's go.”
“If you insist.” he replies, once more shifting into his aquatic, many-limbed form. “But if something in there kills you, it's not my fault.”

He then picks you up, and cautiously swims through the opening. And once in the room beyond, you see the source of the light. Embedded into what looks like an altar of some sort is a sword radiating with azure light, its golden crossguard and grip pointing up as the blade lights up the room.

“A sword?” you mutter, Aku timidly holding you out ever closer to the weapon. “But why would a sword be sealed away like that?”
“Perhaps it is a cursed artifact, sealed so it cannot unleash its magical power upon the world?” he offers, but seems incinscere to you for some reason. He's AFRAID of this sword, and whatever magical energy is radiating from it. “I think we should just leave it here, and go find your sword. It is a much better weapon after all.”

You're not sure why, but you feel yourself being compelled to pick up the weapon. Its blade, which isn't made of any metal you've ever seen looks familiar, somehow. You can't quite place it, but you're sure you've seen such a material somewhere.

Well? What do you do?

"Aku, end the shield." you say, the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness looking at you with a worried gaze. "I don't think that weapon will mix with your magic."
“You-You're really going to take that thing?” he asks you, looking nervously between you and the sword. “That weapon is radiating magic older than even me. Be very careful Karn, there's no telling how dangerous it is.”
“I will.” you reply, then take a deep breath as he ends the shield. The water rushes into the space it had been, you swimming over to the altar and grasping the weapon's hilt in both hands, bending at the knees so you can use your legs for additional leverage. Then with a focused exhalation you straighten up, pulling the weapon straight up and out of the stone altar. To your surprise it isn't stuck or anything, pulling the weapon free easily. As you do, however, suddenly you hear an unfamiliar noise.

“Uhh Karn? I think it is time to leave.” Aku says, as suddenly the sound of grinding stone fills the water while the gap in the altar the sword had been resting in starts to close up from the bottom. And you realize that the sword was holding some mechanism in place. Now, without the 'key' keeping that button pressed down, something's about to happen. You aren't sure what, but your instincts are telling you it can't be anything good. So without a moment's hesitation you dash straight through the narrowly opened doorway, turning and grabbing onto it with your telekinetic grip. But before you can close it, Aku grabs you around the waist and pulls you away. “No time! RUN!!”

Before you can say anything he jerks you back, swimming rapidly away from the room. Then after only two seconds or so, a massive blast of energy explodes out from the sealed room. It is the same sort of azure magical light that the sword radiates, and as the light ends you realize why the sword looks familiar. The doorway has been filled, rendered impassible by the sudden appearance of pale, slightly luminous crystals that have sprouted up. They look almost identical to your son's own magic, and looking back at the sword realize now where you've seen such a thing before.

“So that's why it looks familiar.” you think to yourself, then after a moment give Aku a thumbs up. He lets you go, and now that his barrier is gone you only have a limited time to act before you have to flee back to the surface. You then flare your aura up, and start flying through the water. Aku remains close, not quite close enough that with a sudden stop he'd get hit by the crystalline sword but enough that he can follow you easily as you keep looking around. And then, you find it. You point towards the narrowing path, glancing over your shoulder to see Aku nod. This is it.

Having finally found where you fell before, you drop down deeper into the darkness without hesitation. Aku follows close behind, you dropping down as fast as you can go. You fly down for almost a minute before finding the bottom, but then you see it! You made it back to the bottom of the abyss! You fly over to the corpse of the Abyss Dragon, landing beside it. Aku lands beside you a moment later, his eyes even wider than usual.

“You...You really did it.” he says, looking over at you. “You actually killed him. But...Where's the sword?”
“Under him.” you reply. “Stabbed him straight through the chest.”
“I see.” Aku replies. “So, are you gonna grab your sword, or...?”

Well? How do you do this?

"I'll get it, just a moment." you think to Aku, shifting the ancient blade to your left hand then reach out with your right. Grasping onto the giant dragon's body in your telekinetic grip, you focus everything you've got on raising the beast's body. Gritting your teeth, you snarl as you struggle to lift the mass of the giant monster. Your arm trembles under the weight, you throwing your left forward as well and putting absolutely everything into lifting the giant body. “HRRAAAA!”

With a roar you lift the ENTIRE gigantic beast, hauling it up off of the rocky ground. Emerald aura blazing, your light reflects off of the weapon's metal. There! As soon as you spot your sword, you drop your telekinetic grip on the dragon and rush forward. Grabbing the blade's handle with your right, you plant your feet on its chest and think out to Aku:

“NOW!!”

“HRRYAAAAA!!” you roar, and with all of your power tear the magical blade free. Darkness sprays out of the opened wound as you kick off of the beast, flying free of the Abyssal fluids and getting clear. Giving Aku all the room he needs.

“M̸̳̑̂͗̽I̵̫̳͙̮̓͒N̴̩̗͉̩̎͒̔̎͜E̶͚͗̓!!” Aku roars in a demonic tone you've never heard him use, his inky black body expanding out in all directions like an ocean wave. His body envelops the entire titanic Abyssal Dragon, covering it completely. Then you watch him, confused, as nothing happens for several moments. But then, the entire mass of Abyssal darkness begins shrinking. Aku's darkness rapidly shrinks down to maybe twice the size of the shield he'd made around you earlier, forming an amorphous blob. But then, once more it begins taking shape. You watch in shock as the dragon's form begins taking shape once more, planting your feet and raising both weapons into a defensive fighting stance. Left sword held horizontally before you, right held up and at the ready above and behind your head. The dragon takes shape once more, but this time it has Aku's more distintive flaming eyebrows, green lips, six horns and red goatee. Then its eyes open, revealing pure white eyes. And suddenly you realize just how intimidating your Berserker forms' eyes must appear to everyone else. The dragon doesn't say a word, but you know it is glaring down at you. You see a small tremble run through the dragon Aku's entire body, as if it is fighting to keep itself stationary as it looks at you. Your instincts start warning you that you could be in danger, wary of the Abyssal being before you.

However, despite his appearance, you know your friend has to be in there somewhere. So you reach out telepathically, calling out to him.

“Aku, can you hear me? I know you're in there!” you think, projecting your thoughts into the giant dragon's mind. “C'mon, don't you dare give up on me!”
“K-Karn?” comes a distant reply, almost as if there is a massive void between your mind and his own. As if you're on one mountaintop, shouting across a valley to your friend who's standing on another mountaintop. You can reach him, but just barely. You're going to have to work hard to reach him through this mental landscape. But as you have that thought, another voice makes itself heard.
“GRRRROOOOOOAAAAAAAR!!” comes a familiar-sounding roar, flooding through the link. Between your minds suddenly a mass of anger and hate shoves itself between your mind and Aku's. Overwhelming malice floods through the telepathic link, nearly severing the tenuous connection. “DIE!”

“Get the hell out of my way!” you snarl aloud, focusing past the mindless rage and thinking directly into Aku's mind. “Come on Aku, you aren't going to let this thing beat you, right? You really telling me that the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness can't even overcome a bit of mindless rage?”

But he can't hear you, the roaring rage drowning your projected thoughts out. Seems like you're going to have to out-rage this beast. You smirk, as despite the air in your lungs running out, you're sure that you can show Aku what REAL anger can do.

“GRRRRAAAAAAAAAAA!!” you roar, cutting loose and letting your emerald aura blaze wildly while powering up to maximum. The draconic Aku before you flinches back, even the rage roaring in his mind stops for a moment at your sudden display. Then you again try reaching him telepathically, but not gently. Now you start shouting at him through your mental link, as if addressing one of your students who's trying to ascend from the False Super Saiyan to a full-grown Super Saiyan. “Is this your best? Are you really going to just let that dragon win? I thought you were better than that!”
“Karn?” he asks, this time his voice coming through much clearer. “What's going on? Are you-?”

“Are you done slacking off?!” you ask, and can almost feel both him and the dragon's minds flinch back in shock. “Now get off your ass, and take control of yourself back! Are you really going to just stand there and let that dragon win? Are you really going to just give up? Or are you going to fight back? Fight, Aku! FIGHT!!”
“GRRROOOOOAAAAAAAAR!!” the Aku dragon bellows, head pointed towards the sky and belching pitch-black flames up into the air. But you can tell that this roar is different, not one of mindless fury. And as his shape begins collapsing and folding in on itself, you can't help but smirk. Looks like you got through to him.

-Saiyan Conqueror Quest 179 paused-

>>5357645
And that's it for tonight, everyone enjoy the run so far? Ready to see what happens next, and how well(or poorly) Aku can control this newfound rage? All this and more when Saiyan Conqueror Quest continues in just over eleven hours from now.

>>5357650
Heh.
>>5357651
In your timeline, only four beings can out-mad Karn. One is sealed away, one is asleep, the third is a hormonal teenager suppressing his anger with everything he's got, and the fourth is the current oldest non-divine living being in the timeline.
>>5357652
HA, a fair point. Karn did learn it from one of if not the best among Saiyans.

>>5357651

You think you're pissed off, you fucking bitch of a dragon? Let me show you true anger; one time I told Maz and Kayle to clean up their bloody toys that they'd left scattered all over the room, but they failed to and during the night I stepped right onto a lego block!

Not inherently, no. But if he continues down the Berserker path, it will exponentially dampen his ability to do so. Going beyond this point, well. Let's just say all sorts of numbers don't multiply but grow exponentially from the Battle of Gods forward.

Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:

After Karn informed Aku of the defeated Abyss dragon, the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness traveled through the Abyss directly to New Salda where Karn led the Abyssal being down into the former darkness. While exploring the caverns, looking for the bottom-most chamber they stumbled upon a sealed door, Karn opening it to find a sword radiating with ancient magic even older than Aku himself. So Karn took the weapon, then after finding the Abyssal dragon retrieved his Wolf Knight sword as well. Aku then consumed the beast, taking its essence into himself. But something was wrong, Aku taking on the dragon's shape and glaring Karn down. After a telepathic rage-off with the remains of the beast's consciousness within Aku, Karn got through to the self-proclaimed Master of Masters. And as we rejoin Karn, Aku's draconic form has begun collapsing in on itself.

“That's it. That's the way.” you think to yourself, ignoring the burning in your lungs desperate for air. Breathing can wait until you've made sure your friend is okay. The Abyssal black form of Aku collapses once more into a shapeless ball. It tries stretching out a few times, but each time the form collapses back into the ball. Then it begins compressing even further, flattening itself down into a disc along the ground. You start feeling nervous, and are about to telepathically reach out again, when suddenly his darkness begins growing up once more. But it doesn't make Aku's usual form. Instead he forms a man! Built just as large as you are, eyebrows still ablaze and with shoulders just as wide as your own, Aku emerges triumphant from his inner battle against the Abyss. Or, did he? You decide to play it safe, and reach out telepathically. “Aku?”

“Aaaaaah, what a wonderful day!” he exclaims, raising both hands over his head as he shouts. “And of course, it is all thanks to you! Were you not here, I'm sure that monster would have consumed me from the inside! I underestimated it, but thanks to you I am stronger than ever!”
“Great. But I gotta breathe, hold on.” you reply, shifting the blue glowing sword with the crystal blade to your tail before grabbing him with your left hand. He looks at you curiously as you shut your eyes, focusing on your ki sense. But who will you teleport the both of you to?

Well?

You reach out, focusing your ki sense down until you've locked onto the singular energy of your daughter's friend, Raditz. Once you've locked onto his ki, you raise your right hand to your forehead.

“What are you doing?” Aku asks, but you don't answer. Focused as intensely as you are, chest nearly on the verge of bursting as your body screams for air, you finally do it! With your focus crystallized, you teleport both yourself and Aku out of the depths. One second the two of you are down in the depths, the next you and the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness are both standing, water dripping onto the clean floor of the medical bay as you take several rapid, deep breaths.
“What the-?!” Raditz shouts, immediately Ascending in a burst of sparks while gathering ki into both hands ready for a fight. But then he sees you, and immediately relaxes. His aura fades away, while also letting the gathered energy in his hands disappear with a sigh out. “Oh, hey. Who's this?”

“I am the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness, the Shogun of Sorrow, the Master of Masters Aku.” he declares, his usual hamminess returning in full force. “And thanks to Karn here, my power has now reached even greater heights! Now, where are we Karn?”
“The medical bay, in my home.” you say, returning the newly-acquired sword to your left hand as you walk over to Chaya's side. You then look over to Dr. White, who's looking nervously at Aku. “Is it okay if he takes a look at Chaya? He's been around for quite awhile, he may have insights into her condition.”
“Of course. The first two scans have completed, and the third hasn't started yet.” he replies, but still seems nervous. “Just don't move her.”
“I understand.” Aku says, walking over and lays his hand on her sternum. Then his darkness begins spreading out from his hand.

“Wha-?!” Raditz exclaims, taking a half step forward towards her as his darkness envelops her body. Much like he consumed the dragon, his darkness covers her completely.
“Hrmmmm. Oooh, I see.” Aku mutters, free hand going to his chin and pulling on his goatee as he looks down at her. “This is interesting. Her body has been filled with a lot of divine magic recently. And I mean a LOT of divine magic. As if two different gods have been warring for dominance inside of her body.”
“Two gods?” you ask, confused. “How? She only fought one opponent.”
“It looks like while one deity tried to crush your daughter, another tried to intervene and save her.” Aku replies, retracting his darkness from her and taking a step back. “But that one's power and influence wasn't great enough to undo what the other did.”

“Caulifla's miracles.” Raditz exclaims suddenly, you all turning to him. “Her healing magic isn't her own, at least that's how she explained it during the war. She channels the power of the Darkmoon that she goes off and fights for for that healing light.”
“She can use the power of the old miracles?” Aku ponders, brows furrowing a bit. “Hmmmm. Then perhaps... Well, that can wait for another time.”

Shaking his head, Aku then turns to you, offering his hand.

“Thank you, my friend.” he says, giving you a genuine smile. “With this power now mine, I can accelerate my own plans by several centuries. Thank you.”
“Of course.” you reply, setting your Wolf Knight sword down to shake his offered hand.

But what now?

"But before you go, if you're not in a hurry; want to test this newfound power out?" you ask him with a smirk. "I'm curious just how powerful you really are, now that you've taken that dragon's power into yourself."
“If you want, I wouldn't be opposed.” he answers with a grin, betraying just how confident he's feeling now that he has that Abyssal dragon's power on top of his own. You remember back to when he'd shown you his power before, and while even back then you'd been stronger than Aku, his power was so much more vast than your own you could barely comprehend it. “But we'll need to take this outside. There is no way this tiny space could contain our might.”

“You're certainly right about that. But let me put these away first.” you say, again taking up the two swords before leading him out of the medbay. You walk to your own room, which is currently empty, and lay the newly-acquired sword flat on the bed. Then you take your Wolf Knight sword and sheathe it, leaning it back against the wall beside the door by your hammer. “Alright, let's go.”
“Will it be okay, just leaving such powerful artifacts laying around like this?” Aku asks, a note of worry in his voice.
“Its fine. Almost no one outside my own family ever come in here.” you say, walking back outside the room. As the door slides to a shut you reach out with your telekinesis, and throw the manual door lock shut on it. Just in case. “Alright, let's go.”

You lead your friend outside the ship, the two of you walking down the entrance ramp and exiting your home. After a dozen or so steps you turn, facing the Shogun of Sorrow. Who laces his fingers together and raises them above his head in a stretch. It sounds almost like wood creaking and groaning as he does so, which is odd, but once he's done he meets your gaze.

“So, how hard is this little practice match of ours?” he asks you, radiating confidence now that you're not holding the weapon, or maybe weapons that could actually kill him.
“Give me everything you've got.” you reply, clenching your fists and powering up immediately to one hundred percent. Your emerald aura flashes up violently around you, blasting the sand away as lightning crackles around you. “Don't hold back, show me everything. I want to see your REAL power!”

He looks you over a moment, muttering to himself too quietly for you to hear before he grins. Your instincts ping at this, telling you that such an expression from this being could be trouble as he continues.

“Yes, I think you could actually do it. I think you can handle my true power.” Aku says, then immediately turn and kicks off the sand. You watch as he soars through the air for a bit before falling down into the sea with a splash. And your instincts warn you that something big is about to happen.

For several seconds everything's quiet, nothing moving aside from the gentle breeze. You watch the water curiously, expecting him to arise at any moment, but nothing happens. For a moment you start wondering if he simply ran off, but then the water starts bubbling up where he'd submerged. Here it comes.

Suddenly Aku's massive body begins emerging, rising up and out of the depths. But to your confusion there are two of him, both rising simultaneously from the water. Then another two, and you finally realize what's happening. Those aren't his body, each one of them is just one of his horns!

“Woah!” you exclaim, taking a step back as Aku's absolutely colossal body begins rising up from the depths. His face is larger than your entire ship behind you, the Master of Masters laughing as he rises from the waves.
“Ahh haaaa haaah haaah haaah haaaaa!” Aku laughs, his voice's bass reverberating the air as he continues rising, towering above everything. He is absolutely massive, like this he would have been able to lift that large demon Trigon in a single hand as if he were a plaything. Your instincts immediately scream at you in terror, your body instinctively reacting to such a display of power as his head completely blocks out the sun, leaving your entire island in darkness. You CANNOT defeat Aku, not like this. Even with the sword, you wonder if it would even make a difference. Aku is a being on an entirely different level. “This is my true form! Now, let us see who is stronger!”

Aku then draws his right hand back, his fist the size of your ship as he aims carefully towards you. If that punch lands, not just your ship but the entire island would easily be destroyed! So you leap into the air, emerald aura blazing so such a large being can easily see you, and he adjusts his aim.

But what do you do now?

"C'mon, show me what you've got! HRRAAAAA!!" you roar, drawing your own right fist back. Aku draws his arm all the way back for a planet-rending swing, then fires it right at you. Emerald aura blazing, you roar and swing forward with all of your might directly at the center of his massive fist. Your fists collide, but something unexpected happens. With the force of Aku's punch spread out over a massive area, while your power is far more narrowly focused, insteading of meeting force with force you punch through Aku's titanic fist! Your charge carries you into Aku's hand, charging through his Abyssal black body until you charge straight through and back out into the world. Looking back, you see that your charge carried you all the way through Aku's forearm, exploding out the back of his elbow. Well, that didn't quite go how you'd intended it to.

“Looks like I need to be more... Precise.” Aku declares, his entire forearm morphing into a lance. It comes down to a point roughly the size of your Ascended Berserker fist, the titanic Aku drawing his reshaped arm back for another swing. You do the same, and once again charge forward. “HAAAA!”
“HRRYAAAAAAAA!!” you bellow, swinging with everything you've got once more. Your fist slams into the point of Aku's swing, then from that point of contact a massive shock wave blasts out. It sends you flying back and away, tumbling uncontrollably through the air as you hit something at least as powerful as your own swing. But after a few seconds you finally stop yourself, just in time to see that Aku recoiled as well. Looking up, you see that his expression is one of complete shock. His flaming eyebrows have completely gone out, looking down at you stunned.

“WHAAAAAT?!” he exclaims, looking from his arm to you and back. “N-No way. There's no way, that has to be a fluke. HAAAA!”
“GRRRAAAAA!!” you bellow, drawing your fist back and charging at his fist once more. Again your fist crashes into his own, and again the shock waves from the titanic clash knocks you flying. As you recover again, Aku draws both hands up over his head, laces his fingers together before reshaping his joined hands into a giant downward-pointing cone.
“Let's see you block THIS!” he shouts, and swings down towards you. Focusing your energy into your Energy Body around you, you draw your right fist back once more as you fly straight up at his attack.
“HRRRRAAAAAAAAA!!!” you roar, once more swinging your fist into Aku's massive attack. Your attacks collide once again, but this time the shock waves are different. They're more focused, slamming into you as your attack stops Aku's massive swing. Yet despite stopping the attack, the force is transferred to you instead, sending you crashing down into the sea.

You hit the waves with tremendous force, the sea 'breaking' your fall and slowing you down slightly before crashing back-first down into the sea floor. But as you hit, the water explodes up, leaving you laying on a now-dry seabed as the water sprays upwards. And for a moment, you see Aku looking down to his merged hands in complete surprise.

“Heh.” you mutter, smirking as the waves crash back down onto you. Exhaling you pull yourself up and out of the newly-made crater, getting your feet under you before kicking off and launching yourself back into the sky.
“Whaaat?!” Aku shouts, clearly surprised as you fly back up out of the sea seemingly unharmed. “You can still fly?”
“I can do more than that!” you shout, emerald aura exploding up around you once more. “Come on, enough playing around! Show me what you can REALLY do!!”

Once more you charge up at the mighty Aku, drawing your right fist back as he does the same with his joined hands, determined to see exactly what he can do with this tremendous new power. You're going to draw every last ounce of this newfound strength from him and see just how strong your ally is!

And that's it for this weekend, everyone enjoy this episode so far? Ready to see what happens next, who Tatsu and Tomi will end up recruiting for their team, and how Chaya moves forward? All this and more, next time on Saiyan Conqueror Quest!

>>5358227
Man. We should invite Aku over for sparring more often.
Imagine the gains we could make with him, Vegeta, Ubo, and Frieza.
Also thanks for the session GD, always glad to be here.

>>5358236
unfortunately he's probably busy running all of his worlds.

>>5358238
How much effort does it actually take to do that?
As far as I know, Aku doesn't much care so long as his subjects are loyal and evil as fuck.

>>5358236
The Abyssal dragon’s might, added to his own, has made him much more physically powerful.
Glad you enjoyed.
>>5358238
Aku’s a busy entity. Especially now, since he now has the power to claim more pieces of himself.

I can't tell which one of those four is supposed to be Asura.

>>5358244
Long before then, a Foolish Samurai Warrior will step forth to oppose him once more.
>>5358298
What if I told you he can’t out-rage Karn, at least not directly. Because he is a deity, and Karn is always angrier facing one than normal

>>5358399
Ah, but that is the beauty of Asura!
He accomplishes what should, by all means, be impossible. He killed the god of Mantra using Mantra. His rage, and his daughter's love for him, was enough to kill the very thing that controlled and produced his power.
Besides, we all know that Asura doesn't give a shit about being a god. He does what he does because it's always objectively correct to beat the shit out of assholes that cause trouble for other people because of their ambitions, not for anything else.

>>5358240
>Aku’s a busy entity. Especially now, since he now has the power to claim more pieces of himself.
Is that gunna let him break into the castles of the 3 Sisters of Dark from the Dark Souls 2 DLCs and absorb them earlier?

>>5358443
Honestly, he's the only God Karn wouldn't ever fight. They're both on the same page.

>>5358443

>>5358461
I could see the fight happening. We can’t forget that Karn is still a genocidal conqueror at the end of the day. He’s perfectly willing to sacrifice trillions of lives for the PTO, both out of loyalty to it and to secure the livelihood and safety of his friends and family. That alone would be unforgivable, because they’re not his lives to sacrifice. Asura doesn’t seem like the kind of guy to tolerate might makes right either - right makes right, it doesn’t matter how much stronger someone is to him. The bloodshed of innocents is always unforgivable.
Still, he wouldn’t seem the type to be opposed to a temporary partnership against a more vile threat. Karn is a lot more down to earth and reasonable than most of Asura’s enemies.

>>5358685
Valid points. If nothing else, they'd certainly understand where the other was coming from if they ever learned of their circumstances.
Gotta protect those smiles.

>>5358646
Both would immediately recognize the other as a threat, but not necessarily an immediate one depending on the circumstances.
>>5358668
Not even the SKoT or Nefarious would be stupid enough to take one of Karn’s kids. Would have to be a very special brand of stupid.
>>5358685
Why I said depending on the circumstances. Neither would be able to back down from that fight in those circumstances either.

>>5358719
>Not even the SKoT or Nefarious would be stupid enough to take one of Karn’s kids. Would have to be a very special brand of stupid.
I see, it would have to be A D V A N C E D stupid. Does such a being even exist in this universe by now?
>Why I said depending on the circumstances. Neither would be able to back down from that fight in those circumstances either.
Shame. Asura sounds like a cool guy. Maybe if things were different, or in another universe, we could've been pals for sure.

>>5358719
>Not even the SKoT or Nefarious would be stupid enough to take one of Karn’s kids. Would have to be a very special brand of stupid.
Enter the Boi.

>>5359313
Imagine kidnapping someone's child just to start a conversation. Now imagine the kid will fight back and probably be beaten, bruised and battered in the process. Or visibly unconscious/bound upon meeting. And thinking that conversation would go anywhere other than them wanting to beat you to fucking death.

Trunks is definitely stupid enough.

>>5358970
In YOUR universe? Perhaps two, maybe 3 beings max.
Would be a fight to the death, as neither is the kind of man to back down.
>>5359313
He’s stupid, not STUPID.

>>5359362
I know we've pretty much ruined Trunks psychologically, but does any of the physical damage we've done to him stick around?
Or is all of that pretty much removed when he gets resurrected?

>>5359421
Pretty sure the Dragon doesn't halfass a resurrection unless it specifically doesn't like you. Save for Frieza who was brought back as a meat pie for Shenron's amusement, all the people who died and came back were put back together in pristine condition.

>>5359440
>Pretty sure the Dragon doesn't halfass a resurrection unless it specifically doesn't like you
By all means, Trunks should be on the list given how often he needs to be stitched back together.
If I had to make a new body and slap a soul into it for the same guy almost a half dozen times, I'd start getting shit wrong just to mess with him.

That was explained as Shenron’s limit for revival is one year. After that you’re brought back in the condition you were in when you died. Meaning requiring immediate aid.

He had one chance to have his dragon balls drop and they shot right back up after confronting his annoying pink handler. Anything short of brainwashing the brainwashing won't help him now, and he is absolutely not worth the effort in my eyes or Fu's eyes. His fate as Chronoa's loyal halfbreed mutt and Karn's chewtoy has been sealed. I long for the day that he starts jobbing to our children, especially Chilli, Broly, Maza, Milha, and Koruza.

>>5359600
Dude Chilli and Broly could probably take him in a double team.
Power disparity aside, they're probably already more skilled and serious about fighting then he'll ever be.

>>5359571
If he didn’t want to be emasculated, he’d have stood up to Chronoa by now.
>>5359573
True. But Xeno Trunks is NOT the same as the one who stood up to Vegeta over the whole Perfect Cell fiasco. THAT Trunks had principles and stood by them.
>>5359600
And Potara were permanent, yes. We can all remember.
>>5359617
Chilli can solo him, as long as Trunks doesn’t speed blitz him because of the moral quandry of attacking a literal child “FoR tHe GrEaTeR gOoD.” Broly could put up a fight, and cash in on some of those debuffs, but he lacks the power to put him down.

>But Xeno Trunks is NOT the same as the one who stood up to Vegeta over the whole Perfect Cell fiasco
That brings up an interesting question.
What could have caused Xeno Trunks to diverge so heavily in personality and temperament from a certified chad-in-training like pic related?

>>5357844
I think the last is Moro, the second would be Beerus over Cumber.

>>5359632
Time travel theorycrafting is fun! Give me a bit, and I’ll have the full Cell Saga All Timelines breakdown ready.

>>5359632
He got a second mom.

In Z canon, there are 4 known timelines, excluding the movies.

First, there is the timeline where Goku dies to the virus, Bulma develops the medicine and the Time Machine, Trunks goes ‘back’. Killing Freeza and King Cold and splitting the timeline. This is the Original Timeline Trunks, or OT Trunks. He helps defeat the Androids of Timeline 2, or T2. Cell hasn’t appeared yet, as he’s not traveled back yet. OT Trunks returns home with the remote to deactivate 17&18 in his timeline. Androids are destroyed, then Cell awakens in a 17&18less world so kills Trunks and steals the time machine. Going back to 4 years BEFORE Trunks’ arrival, creating another split timeline.
Because of Cell’s jumping back and splitting of the timeline, OT Trunks appears in BOTH timelines 2&3. This third timeline is the Z ‘canon’ timeline, the one the manga/anime follow. Trunks appears, defeats Freeza/King Cold, returns for the Androids fight and stays in timeline 3 until Cell is defeated. Going back ‘home’, he fights the androids directly, killing them in combat before destroying Cell with a “Disappear For Good!”

And that’s the Android/Cell saga multiverse.

>>5359703
Forgot to mention the timeline he goes back ‘home’ to after Cell’s defeat in timeline 3 is timeline 4. Similar to timeline 1, except he kills the androids in direct combat instead of deactivating them first. And armed with knowledge of Cell’s existence.

>>5359705
So Xeno Trunks is the one that got killed by Cell in the future, right?
That still makes him pretty similar to the canon Future Trunks right up until that divergence.
What exactly put all that bitch in him? Because it shouldn't have been there after training with Vegeta.

>>5359711
Yes, Xeno Trunks is from the first timeline. The one who didn’t fight Cell in the past. It didn’t so much as put the bitch IN him, as that was always there. But timeline 3’s iteration of Future Trunks actually stood up to Vegeta. Without Cell’s Perfect gambit, Trunks never had a reason to man up and stand up directly to Vegeta’s arrogance. Remaining the whipped dog he was.

>>5359730
Oh my God, he never made his daddy proud either.
WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING THE WORST POSSIBLE ITERATION OF TRUNKS THIS ENTIRE TIME!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I have a question that may not have an answer.
Why are dragons so prominent in Karn's life?
He made a technique that manifests a dragon despite probably not knowing what a dragon even is.
His Stand takes the form of a dragon.
He's fought and killed multiple legendary dragons.
His moniker is "The Dragon of New Salda".
What's the deal?

>>5359883
What if I told you that the fictional media on which this quest was based was called "Dragonball"?

Dude dragons are cool. It's whatever.

>>5359883
Because dragons are cool, duh.

>>5359895
>What if I told you that the fictional media on which this quest was based was called "Dragonball"?
>Dragonball
>Dragon ball
>Dragon's balls
>Karn is a "dragon"
>Karn's balls have produced multiple key players in shaping the Galaxy's future after he's gone
IT'S ALL CONNECTED

>>5359741
Yup. This is BOI.
>>5359883
>He made a technique that manifests a dragon despite probably not knowing what a dragon even is.
>His Stand takes the form of a dragon.
Those are the same thing. Karn was unaware it was a Stand, however, until Joseph explained it.
>His moniker is "The Dragon of New Salda"
Yes. Because his Stand, pre-Divine, was visible to non-Stand users. And during the battle with Trigon, Karn summoned it in a large form that could match the demon, and killed him.
>He's fought and killed multiple legendary dragons.
More happenstance than anything else. He’s also fought deities, demons, assassins, cyborgs, and cyborg assassins.

Hope you all are ready for a Karn fight for the intermission. But this one won’t be from Karn’s perspective

>>5360459
Oh shit, this sparring match probably looks like really bad from an outsider's perspective.

>>5360461
True. Remember, Aku now towers over TRIGON. And how many would remember him from the Siege?

>>5360553
I wouldn't be surprised if Vegeta is flying over right now with Nappa in tow.

>>5360566
>Holy shit Vegeta look at how big and black it is!
Goddammit Nappa.

>>5360566
Someone will see the fight, that’s for sure. A LOT of someones.

>>5360577
I asked earlier, but Vox has cameras on this, right?

>>5360580
You’ll have to wait and see on that one

>>5360591
Also one more question.
Does one's top speed increase linearly with their power level without additional speed focused training?
Because if it does, Karn could potentially fly at 4.2% of the speed of light provided he's in a vacuum.

I do wonder if Saiyans can get PTSD.

>>5360593
Somewhat. We see that Goku’s faster than Burter because he’s far stronger, yet Burter WAS faster than Ginyu.
>spoiler
I could believe it, judging from the sheer power increase from the time of his fight with Freeza. In his BASE FORM man could out-fly an explosion he was INSIDE without getting burned.
>>5360604
Will cause some people to feel fear

>>5360608
Forgot to mention, those calculations I mentioned were done with Karn's base powerlevel.

>>5360608
personally I see KI as a kinda enhancer for speed and strength. the faster you can go without ki the bigger the boost is. it's why dyspo while not the strongest pride trooper is the fastest.

that's my personal head canon.

>>5360663
Its a believable scale. Goku was 3million BASE Against Freeza. 30mil at x10 Kaio Ken, and 60mil at x20 Kaio Ken. Freeza at “half” his full power was 60mil.
>>5360670
>it's why dyspo while not the strongest pride trooper is the fastest
But that is explicitly wrong. Dyspo was still slow enough for Goku to react to with Omen, while Jiren’s Full Power was too fast for even Mastered to dodge at several points during the final battle. Now the manga does say Goku’s focus slips while in that state and he gets sloppier, but even after he’s knocked down he can get up and dodge a lot of Jiren’s hits again.

But scaling anything off of U7 during the tournament is dumb anyways. Dyspo’s base being slower than Freeza and his hits doing no damage to his final technique being so fast Golden Freeza couldn’t even TOUCH him and actually was taking damage?

>>5360676
Hey, GD. I was wondering... Has Chilli given any thought to using his magic to reinforce his strength and speed, similarly to Ki? Ordinarily it typically pales in comparison to just casting a strong spell, I imagine, since if he needs physical power he can just use Super Saiyan...

But within Soul Release, powering something like that wouldn't be an issue, and the effect would be magnified dozens of times over, right? Would a technique like that allow Chilli to keep up with a melee bruiser using Soul Release, rather than risking getting immediately speed blitzed if they have a way to hit it?

>>5360676
I'll be honest I don't watch super. I thought Dyspo was the fastest because I heard that was his thing.

the point may still ring for Burter being the fastest of the ginyu force (excluding Guldo because time stop is technically infinite speed)

>>5360690
excluding ginyu as well i guess.

So i had a really dumb thought. Karn gets stronger when his cloths get blasted off, so I could see some time patroller idot trying to use the Cloths Beam to weaken him

The magical Girl Karn incident is to be never talked about

>>5359730
>>5359741
It explains everything...and his dad is so out of his league now that he would never think to nut up with Pink Bitch tugging his sack wherever she wants him to go.

>>5359883
We fought Godzilla several times, so Shenron version of Dragon Force could have been our subconscious interpretation of one, since we never see actual dragons until recently. As for the rest, well, the make good boss fights.

>>5360687
No, he sees such magic as trivial at best. After all, he figured out invisibility in a single night because he and Megumin had a lighthearted argument about whether or not it was useful.
No. Soul Release, at the level he’s operating, converts the person’s physical body itself into magic. Which is why the Kaio-Ken doesn’t come with the same risks in that form.
>>5360690
He was the second fastest going INTO the tournament, by virtue of Jiren also being there. We can debate on if he’s faster than a Blue Kaio-Ken or Blue Evolution, but doesn’t really matter. Dyspo’s faster than Golden Freeza, which is faster than Blue.
Burter is fastesr than Ginyu, even now due to his specialized training. Guldo doesn’t count, considering now his Time Freeze can last several minutes at a time.
>>5361030
Well, just going to note this doen in my potential April Fools notes, don’t mind me
>>5361117
That’s why he’s so easily manipulated.
>>5361118
>since we never see actual dragons until recently
But Karn recognizes them on sight. Which can only mean one thing: he’s seen then BEFORE episode one, on another planet.

>>5361131
Godzilla world, its nostalgic.

>>5361226
What I’m saying is Karn had encountered such beasts before, in the 3 year interim between the PTO enlisting the Saiyans and episode 1 of SCQ.

>>5361305
I'm only now realizing we don't really know anything about Planet Vegeta.

>>5361312
Wasn't much to understand, it was a dying rock. Old King Vegeta's palace had a room impervious to time bullshit scrying apparently, but that was New King Vegeta's thing to investigate before the big move.

>>5361305
Hey GD, Vegeta's a man now, right?
When the hell is he gonna solidify his lineage with an heir?

>>5361377
I think he's still in those Saiyan teen years (15-17) where he looks like an 11 year old.

>>5361377
Officially he will be waiting for some time as most royalty don't want the crazy bullshit that is the Saiyan Homeworld. Unofficially his body guard is being doted on alot by him.

>>5361312
It was a rocky, barren planet.
>>5361377
That may be related to an important event, one that’s upcoming...
>>5361383
He’s 18, nearly 19.

Why would he care about the royalty? The king has(traditionally) had one requirement for a bride, since before King Vegeta III. And you should already know what that is.

Tig ol' bitties.

>>5361401

Blue hair.

>>5361401
>And you should already know what that is.

The ability to have Saiyan children.

>>5361401
>It was a rocky, barren planet.
That had dragons at one point.
>That may be related to an important event, one that’s upcoming...
Is Silva gonna come visit?
>And you should already know what that is
I forgot that Emilia is actually about as strong as Karn in his base form.

>>5361408
Ha, but no.
>>5361411
No.
>>5361416
That is a given.
>>5361418
Not that Karn knows of.
No. Unless something else happens.
She’s certainly strong.

>>5361401
The ability to produce strong and capable heirs.
Above all else, that is the most important thing in Saiyan royalty. A weak heir would see the lineage destroyed by the first dissenter that could overpower them. Weakness is absolutely intolerable in a saiyan royal. Even if the royal family is more sophisticated than the rest of saiyan society, the fact remains that saiyans will always be a warrior race.

>>5361646
I get what you're saying and I agree with you, but maybe don't attach a picture of a dead bitch next time.

>>5361646
I mean Vegeta brought back Tarble

>>5361693
Tarble was the second son, so the standards would understandably be more lax for him.
That said, he did start training under one of the strongest Saiyans in history as soon as he was brought back, so there's hope for him yet.

>>5361700
being weak isnt a sin

staying weak is.

-the one true law of gains

>>5361770
You know why being weak is such a great thing?
Because you can only get stronger.

>>5361646
A very good point. Any new Vegeta must be powerful enough to keep the lineage going, and to protect their people.
>>5361693
To be fair, Tarble kind of found his own way back after King Vegeta III yeeted him into space for the sin of being weak.
>>5361700
He was sent away out of shame. But if only Vegeta III could see his sons now.
>>5361770
Ha, fairly true.
>>5361921
I disagree. Being weak then losing an arm makes you even weaker.

>>5361925
>I disagree. Being weak then losing an arm makes you even weaker.
Some people get thrown more curveballs than others. What matters is that you make the most of what you still have.

>>5361929
I just had to disagree with the spoiler text, because it was factually incorrect. You can always get weaker. Unless you’re a nugget, then you have no power

>>5361988
Sad Gohan noises

>>5362029
"Sad" next to "Gohan" is a bit redundant, don't you think?
Why the fuck did they have to do my boy like that. Fuck Shueisha.

>>5361988
Hey GD, I have a somewhat strange question.
What's Galick been up to?
I know he probably has his hands full being a Royal Guard, but I figure I may as well ask since he's tangentially related to the main cast.
I also find it interesting how he either inherited or invented a technique effective enough for Vegeta to go "I gotta learn that!"
It's remarkably similar to the Kamehameha, so I wonder if it follows the same basic principles as far as ki manipulation goes.

>>5362029
Ha.
>>5362056
>spoiler
Still haven’t watched the movie
>>5362074
Training newer Royal Guards, teaching them how to go Super Saiyan. His goal, by the time he retires is every Guard has full mastery of Super Saiyan and are always in that form at least when guarding the King.
It’s close enough. Not QUITE as efficient/powerful as a Kamehameha, as that more than doubles a user’s power before firing it. But it is close

>>5362127
Hey, how come Galick doesn't get any flak for naming his attack after himself?

>>5362127
Oh that spoiler has nothing to do with the movie. I'm just pissed off at the usual things like Gohan behind short changed for 20 years in favor of his dead father.

QM UPDATE

Unfortunately the intermission is taking a lot longer than I thought it would, so Aku vs Karn will have to be the epilogue for this episode instead of being posted tonight.

>>5362134
Good question. Has Karn even seen him use it?
>>5362157
Fair enough, and true

Alright I'm just gonna throw out some random questions about Saiyans and New Salda.
How much of Saiyan religion and mythology survived the ancient civil war and subsequent jumps from planet to planet?
Are there any fringe elements in the Saiyan population that broke off from the PTO?
Do modern Saiyans have any creative output or type of craft besides fighting?
How many Saiyan children born in the last few years are hybrids?
Are there any Saiyan infants sent out on extermination missions that have yet to return to PTO space?
Outside of tourist traps, how pervasive are cultural influences from other planets on New Salda?
Are there any farms on New Salda? Or is all the food hunted game and imports from other planets?
Would Frieza potentially engineer a new conflict just to keep the Saiyans in fighting shape?
Is there any interest from Saiyan Leadership or Frieza in establishing Saiyan Colonies on other high gravity planets?

>>5362624
Our Saiyan's are space Construction workers between Wars. And pornstars/workout instructors.

>>5362928
Saiyans being top notch builders actually ties back into one of my questions.
If they're skilled in building habitats for themselves given the materials, it stands to reason that they'd be a good fit for colonizing high gravity planets that are unfit for sale.
It would also help mitigate New Salda's status as a massive target, what with it no longer being the singular home of Frieza's most powerful soldiers.

24 hours until SCQ continues!

>>5362624
Not much, mostly the old nobles are the only ones who know any of it. But even then the tales of the Super Saiyan God, and the Berserker God have been lost to time.
Possibly, just like Bardock was at one point.
Some may, but that’s more the outcast than the rule. Like Chilli, diving into magic and exploring its depths.
>hybrids
Including Maza, Milha and Koruza, less than twenty. Most were born on Azar.
A few. Most are assumed dead from the deep space powerlevel scans.
Outside of the contained light gravity well in the main city? Only the Jiralhanae settlement made of their old ships.
Other commercial fauna cannot sustain itself in the intense gravity of New Salda. They’ve tried engineering the crops but that hasn’t worked. So they’ve been going through and finding what grows naturally, and testing it for commercial use. But right now the Saiyan population is sustained through imports and hunted game/fish.
>engineer
There’s no need for that. It hasn’t even been a YEAR yet in-quest since the Covenant fell.
>colonies
There’s one in the works. A planet with even higher gravity, and surprisingly high powerlevel readings. King Vegeta and Freeza have been discussing it.
>>5362928
They’ve gotten really good at rebuilding.
>>5362994
But that also makes the inverse true. Having THAT MUCH power concentrated means it is the most secure planet in the entire PTO. People wanted by other factions have actively fled to New Salda after the war, knowing damn well no other player would try something. Not after the Siege, showing just how much carnage and death the Saiyans can deal out per life lost. Speaking of, Vox caught Maz/Kayle’s deaths on camera, and Karn naming his twins after them has been noticed by the Saiyan-observing community. Some even going so far as to speculate that the twins ARE Maz and Kayle reborn, and that Saiyans simply reincarnate into stronger and stronger Saiyans.

what do you even call a group of saiyans? a salad?

>>5363049
Fuck you I didn't laugh, you laughed.

>>5363019
>That spoiler
Oh....OH, so Moma Goddess Meloka is going to have a reincarnation flavoring to her Goddesshood? Bit dumb of an assumption, and it seems really odd the lot would go that route instead of Karn honoring the memory of fallen warriors. But...okay?

>>5363049

>the last spoiler
I wonder what this means for ol' Karn Jr. The boy was born as a super saiyan, and his father was the first super saiyan since thousands of years ago. fuck, he's ripe for kidnapping by outside forces wanting a piece of that potential power pie, he makes canon infant broly look like a chump.

>>5363199
I know right? Broly might have those legendary Genes, but his biological parents being as weak as they were really set him back.
As opposed to Karn Jr who was conceived while his daddy was an Ascended Berserker and his momma was a master of Super Saiyan 3.

>>5363212
I can't help but imagine what a monster a child of Broly and Kale would be especially if he was born Berserk Super Saiyan like Karn Jr.

>>5363241
Kale got bitch genes. Strong sure but bitch genes nonetheless. Don't worry though he'll get with Cauli instead and it's gonna be weird as fuck.

>>5363049
Ha! Nice.
>>5363080
Internet people anon. Theorycrafters. I didn’t say MOST thought this way, but the number is greater than none.
>>5363199
It means he has the potential for greatness. The first Super Saiyan BORN in a thousand years.
Many factions would want to steal a Super Saiyan. But going for one of Karn’s kids is just suicide with extra steps.
>>5363212
Just normal Berserker back then if I recall correctly.
>>5363241
Would be far more likely to be green.
>>5363248
Was that nature? Or nurture?
>spoiler
Not likely. She’s family. And not in the “help me step bro” way.
