A 'bardock vs king vegeta fanfic' could explore the backstories of both characters. Bardock's story as a Saiyan who starts to question the Frieza regime might contrast with King Vegeta's more traditional and perhaps self - serving rule. Their fight could be a symbol of the changing tides within the Saiyan community. It could also introduce new elements to the Dragon Ball lore, like different forms of Saiyan power that are unique to this fictional encounter.
In a fanfic, Naruto might power up by having a spiritual awakening. He could connect with the spirits of past Hokages in a deeper way, gaining their knowledge and some of their power. This could enhance his existing jutsu and give him new abilities. Vegeta could power up if he were to face a near - death experience against Naruto. This could trigger a hidden potential within him, like a new type of Super Saiyan form that has unique abilities. He could also fuse with another Saiyan (if there were another Saiyan available in the fanfic's scenario) to create an even more powerful being.
Another theme could be loyalty. Bardock might be loyal to the true potential of the Saiyan race while King Vegeta is loyal to the existing power structure. This difference in loyalty can create a great conflict in the fanfic. Also, there could be a theme of social change. As Bardock may represent the underclass Saiyans who want a change, and King Vegeta is the symbol of the old regime.
In many fanfics, it's really hard to say for sure. Android 18 has her android strength and durability. Vegeta, on the other hand, is a powerful Saiyan with his Super Saiyan forms. If the fanfic writer focuses on Android 18's infinite energy, she could potentially outlast Vegeta. But if Vegeta quickly ascends to a high - level Super Saiyan form like Super Saiyan Blue, his power could be overwhelming.
Their relationship could grow deeper as they face the challenges of pregnancy together. Krillin might become more in tune with 18's needs, and 18 could see a new side of Krillin's caring nature.
Bulma could also be a common character paired with Krillin. Bulma is very intelligent and could potentially help Krillin figure out how to time travel better or she might be the one who creates the time - travel device in the first place. And she could use her resources to help Krillin in his time - traveling adventures.
In the manga, Krillin doesn't stop training. His sense of duty and the need to protect his comrades push him to keep improving his skills and strength.
Well, it's really hard to say. The Black Swordsman has his own set of skills with the sword and his combat experience. But Dark God Vegeta is extremely powerful with his Saiyan abilities. If they were to fight, it would depend on the context. If it's in a close - quarters combat, the Black Swordsman's sword skills might give him an edge initially. However, Vegeta could quickly adapt and use his energy blasts and super - strength to overpower. In a more open area, Vegeta's long - range attacks would be a big threat to the Black Swordsman.
One interesting plot point could be the initial encounter between the two. How would they react to each other? The Black Swordsman might be cautious seeing such a powerful being as Dark God Vegeta. Another point could be the discovery of each other's weaknesses. Maybe the Black Swordsman finds a way to temporarily nullify Vegeta's energy attacks, or Vegeta discovers that the swordsman's sword has a special power that can harm him. Also, the moment when they start to respect each other's fighting abilities during the battle would be really engaging.
One possible fanfiction could focus on their daily life together. They might have a sweet morning routine, like making breakfast and chatting about their plans for the day. Krillin could be shown as a very caring partner, always looking out for Android 18's well - being. For example, he might bring her a flower he found during his training, just to make her smile.
