章 119: Interlude : The Arrival of Calamity
Age 796, West City.
In the midst of the wrecked of once glorious city on earth, a great battle had occurred of which the result would decide the fate of the whole world.
There's three people battling against a hulky humanoid green man with half of his skin distorted, being purple in color. The hulky humanoid man was colliding an energy blade conjured on his right arm to the man wearing blue jacket and red scarf below him. Sparks were erupting from the point of collision between two energy blades.
"So, where will you go for help next? The past? The future? And thus you continue to rebel against the justice of the gods!!! ALL BECAUSE OF YOU MORTAL WEAKNESS!!!!" He yelled.
The young man gnashed his teeth as he endured the fearsome strength of his opponent. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly using both of his hands while glaring at the enemy above.
"....I'm not ashamed by, nor do I regret my weakness! I've fought to protect everyone...and survived with everyone's help! That's who I am!!"
As he shout, the youth began to push back his opponent little by little.
"We work together and survive! That's... who we mortals are!!!"
*Paaa----n!!*
An illuminating light exploded from the youth's body it cover the whole area nearby, causing everyone there to see the light clearly. Those light was the youth, Trunks gathering strength from his surroundings, as the embodiment of the hope they placed on him. The spectacle greatly shocked the hulky man and the other two people there.
"...Vegeta! We gotta help him too!"
"Ugh..!"
The two men laying on the ground, Goku and Vegeta reached out their hands and shared their energy onto Trunks. With their help, Trunks received a major boost in power and absorbed all the energies from the other people inside his body.
*WHOOSH!*
Trunks entire body glowed with light blue aura as his broken sword was also transformed to a large sword made out of light, becoming more imposing and vastly more powerful.
He then proceeded to clash the corrupted god Zamasu using his new found power, cutting the latter into half, finally ending the reign of terror he brought upon the alternate future world. The trio Saiyans had achieved victory on this last great battle.
Or so they thought. Once they felt everything was over, Zamasu turned out to survive the attack, abandoning his physical body and assimilated with the surrounding space
The assimilation continued forth to envelope the whole planet before he began to corrupt the entire twelve universes. The Saiyans put on their greatest effort to resist against the now invincible enemy but there's nothing they could do especially with their current exhausted condition. In the end every life on earth was completely exterminated, it wouldn't be long until the humanity perished from the whole world.
Just as they began to lose hope, Goku found something inside his shirt and it turned out to be the device Zeno gave to him that capable of calling the almighty king of everything instantly to his side.
Although Zamasu had completely wiped out the whole gods of Future Trunks' world, only Zeno was incapable of being quelled by him no matter what he do. Hearing the explanation from the Supreme Kai, Goku became delighted and pushed the button on the device and summoned Future Zeno out of thin air.
The king of everything frowned upon the disaster upon his eyes. His emotionless eyes stared at the countless faces of Zamasu in the air.
"A world like this...."
"Huh!?"
Goku was startled, the omni-king spread his tiny arms and charged a shining light that grew brighter and brighter every seconds. He realized that Zeno was trying to erase the whole world and immediately ordered Bulma and Trunks to prepare the time machine while the kais returned back to the past by using the time ring.
Zeno was ascending upwards like a god that ready to deliver his judgement. Even Zamasu who should have lost his sanity had shown some kind of shock and fear.
....Unknown to all of them, there's one more person hiding behind a large wreckage, observing the situation in front of him.
He was the other Zamasu, the one came from the main timeline, the mastermind of everything who had stole Goku's body from other timeline, Goku Black. When their fused body was split into two by Trunks' Sword of Hope, it somehow separated the two identical entities back to each of their own self.
But Black was still suffered from serious injury, he was not like his other self who possessed invincibility gained from the wish made to Super Shenron. If not for the fact that the majority of the damage was negated by the semi-immortality trait of his fused self, he would have long perished under the perilous attacks of when the two Saiyans fused with each other just like him, he would have died dozens of times over.
"Grr....."
Black was having difficulty on supporting his battered body. Right now Zeno had almost reached the peak of his charge and the time for the alternate future world was about to end. If he wanted to escape he had to do it now but he just didn't know how to.
Escape to where? There's no safety places anymore when everything's going to be erased by the leader of all beings. The only way was to follow after Goku and the others or used the Time Ring in order to go to other timelines.
But both case was equally impossible to achieve as there's no enough time to follow Goku's group, and even if he did, he would definitely die once they arrived back to the past. For the latter case, his Time Ring was broken after he was separated and crashed to the ground some distance away. Thanks to that his escape route had gone and he's stuck here.
'No, wait....'
A flash of thought sprouted on Black's mind. There's one more method that could possibly save him from his current situation. It was a crazy idea even for him and the chance of succeeding was miniscule.
'But it still better than nothing....'
Thinking it was still better to risk everything than staying still and waited for the impending death, he smirked.
*Byuuu!*
Not wasting anymore time, he used the little remains of his strength to create a purplish pink scythe. This Sickle of Sorrow was the one he used slightly before when fighting against the improved Vegeta by empowering his energy blade by the rage and sorrow he felt upon the ugliness of mortals.
Currently, the scythe was only half of its former size, its power was reduced dramatically too as a result of Black's exhausted and injured condition.
Still, it was more than enough to make a single attack, a slash that would open the way to escape.
"Haa!"
*SLASH!* *RIIII----P!*
By swinging his arms, Black slashed through the space itself, creating a fissure of dimensional hole large enough for a person to go through. This was the ability of the pinkish scythe, to rupture through space and time itself, connecting to unknown destinations and era.
If things gone wrong, Black was as good as killing himself that's how great of a risk it was to escape by going through the dimensional rupture.
"This kind of world.... Disappear!!!"
There's no time to think as the king of everything had delivered his judgement upon the corrupt god and the whole world itself. A tremendous amount of light illuminated everything, the light that was capable of erasing anyone and anything.
Black saw this and moved his body immediately but before he jumped through the hole, he took one last glance on Goku and the others that was clinging on the Time Machine, travelling back to the past.
Black bit his lip tightly, glaring full of hostility against the Saiyan donned in orange and blue gi, one that caused everything to fell apart. The one who motivated him to execute his plan, the one who made him feel envious because of the strength he possessed, and even when he thought he was finally superior to him, once again he foiled his plan and dream.
If not because of him, he would have eliminate the last remaining Saiyan of this timeline like squashing a bug, wiping everything on his path. There's no way he would fall in this kind of situation where he was forced to escape shamefully.
That's right, it was because of him, because of a man named Son Goku. His dream would never be realized as long as that man exists.
'This isn't the end...Son Goku...!!'
*Kaaa----!!*
He dived through the space tunnel at the same time the light of erasure went past a few strands of his black hair. At this moment, one of the existing timelines was obliterated, closing the curtain of the dark future era that had once withstood a perilous situation.
Goku and the others would never known they had missed a single threat that must never be allowed to survive escaped with his life intact.
....
He traveled for a very long time.
The chaotic space tunnel was continuing like there's no end to it. His body was floating in the air, following the direction of which he was brought to naturally.
In this space and time space, the longer you wandered, the further you went into. Considering how far he had gone by, it couldn't be imagined just how much in the future or the past he's gone to or what kind of place he would end up in.
But the former kai still kept his eyes shut. His injury was not fully recovered yet despite resting for numerous times already. He did not mind this, as long as he was still alive, that's all that matters. Right now his heart was more tranquil than ever as he silently drifted forward.
....
....
....
...More time passed, he could finally see a small light on his sight, signalling the end of the space tunnel.
He went through past the light and found himself enveloped in a flying sensation like his body had lost all weight. A moment later the sensation disappeared and he slowly opened his eyes to see the completely foreign location around him.
"....What? This place...."
