Chapter 108 A Wizard in DBZ
The World Martial Arts Tournament specifically from the Buu saga of Dragonball Z was both one of the most interesting and messed up plot lines from the series. Messed up because if you think about it, the Child of Satan brought about the destruction of the Earth.
Videl Satan, the first born of Hercule Satan, blackmailed Gohan into attending the World Martial Arts Tournament. This caused Vegeta to want to attend as well. This caused Goku to want to attend as well, which wasn't an easy thing to pull off as he had been dead at the time.
The Supreme Kai's attendant asked Gohan to go Super Saiyan and the Supreme Kai prevented Gohan from fighting back when he was attacked and drained of energy. The energy drained was half of what was needed to revive the Majin Buu. The Supreme Kai then invited Goku and Vegeta to help save the world and stop the Wizard Babidi, but because Vegeta really wanted to fight Goku, this pair's fight delivered the other half of the energy required to revive Buu. And later Buu destroyed the Earth.
Without Gohan attending, Vegeta and Goku would not have attended either. Without them attending, it would have taken far longer for Babidi's henchmen to get enough energy to revive Buu and Babidi could have been stopped by Vegeta alone since Babadi's strongest henchmen Dabura was only about as strong as Perfect Cell.
So it really was the case where the Spawn of Satan caused the destruction of the Earth. Harry was rather giddy at the idea of screwing with this particular plot line.
Harry and his wives all came to attend the World Martial Arts Tournament. Only Harry would be competing since the physical fighters among the girls used powers which were not entirely stable in this dimension.
It only took about three seconds upon arrival to find out that the DBZ Universe operated under a very different set of literary cartoon-like physics. Even if they gathered the Dragonballs and used a wish to grant themselves Eternal Youth, the effect may not even work as their physiology was different from natives of this Universe and the effect would definitely not last after returning.
The most obvious difference was that this Earth's gravity was a fraction of their own Earth's. This meant that material density was lower and everything was more fragile in comparison.
They would still grab a bunch of souvenirs, but they weren't expecting much. Harry just hoped Jade would not be too heartbroken if the Nimbus Cloud she wanted to bring home didn't work once they returned to their own dimension.
"Your attention please, all competitors come to the waiting area. This is your last call."
Harry had already signed up and waited patiently for the preliminaries to start as the guy in the monk robes called out for the stragglers to hurry up. Moments later Harry spotted the Z-Fighters enter. One would think the green skinned Namekian would draw more attention, but this world had cat people, dog people, fox, red panda, and rabbit people along with Reverse Werewolves who turn human during the full moon.
Harry's energy senses did not white out in their presence. The Ki concealing technique they used caused Harry to only be able to tell their physical energy, which was still massive. Without Ki they were a few times stronger than Captain America, but still fell a bit short of the Hulk. Ki was cartoonish in how it amplified everything and using logic to explain it was troublesome.
Harry did his best not to stare at the Namekian which was easier than he thought since the golden halo over Goku's head was far easier to ponder over and less of an eyesore compared to the turban-sunglasses combo worn by Gohan's Great Saiyaman outfit.
Within the waiting grounds were dozens of tough looking show offs demonstrating their arrogance for the crowds.
"Hi there, where are you from?" The blond reporter spotted Harry and immediately ran forward for a bit of brown nosing. She'd been getting a few scenes with everyone, so Harry smiled and answered politely, "I come from outside the known Universe."
"Huh?" Harry ignored her and continued on. She spotted Goku's group and started complimenting his halo as a great fashion accessory, but Piccolo used psychokinesis to destroy the camera, meaning the footage of Harry and everyone else she interviewed had been destroyed.
Through the waiting area were some assigned lockers they could use to change into their combat clothes and store their civilian clothes until the tournament was over. Harry just equipped some martial robes that didn't stand out and entered the area where the other competitors waited.
One of the amusing things about this Universe was that the Infinity Stones worked a lot better than he thought they would considering their distance from his home Universe. Harry figured it was due to the flexibility of the physics here. Using the Mind Stone he could prevent anyone from reading his thoughts and even hear the thoughts of others.
For example the thoughts of the green Namekian toad hopping around appeared to that of the former Captain of the Ginyu Force. Harry wondered how he got there. The tournament was held on an island so the toad must've hitched a ride or something.
Harry observed some blonde pretty boy trying to jump off a roof an snatch Gohan's turban off his head, but Gohan bent down when he noticed Captain Ginyu causing the blonde to miss, and the blond guy's head planted itself through the stone ground up to the neck on landing. When his head emerged, he didn't have a scratch or bruise or any blood. Again, this was because the stone on this planet wasn't very dense due to the low gravity.
"Attention please. The Prelims for the World Martial Arts Tournament will now begin. 195 people have entered into this tournament, unfortunately there are only 16 spots. The defending champion is automatically qualified. You do the math, that's 15 spots."
"To ensure fairness we'll select the finalist by way of punching strength. The 15 people with the highest scores on the machine will be given the 15 spots. Now to test the new punching machine and give us a score to go by, we ask the defending world champion to make the first hit. Mr. Satan! Would you come on out please!"
Harry found the guy passing out numbers for the line to strike the punching machine as the crowd cheered for Satan. He stood in front of the punching machine and did a number of theatrical poses and grandstanding. "Hey Does anybody want this! I'm sure you'll want a picture of this."
Harry could only smile when Piccolo's annoyance reached its peak and he destroyed every camera on the island using psychokinesis. Well, almost everyone. Jean's connection to the Phoenix was weakened but her own psionic capabilities were actually greatly magnified in this Universe, so she was able to easily protect her own and the other girl's cameras, especially since they had been expecting Piccolo's actions.
Satan looked rather lost that the pictures just taken were destroyed, but as he still had an audience he psyched himself up before shouting, "Satan Punch!" and smashing the punching machine.
"Incredible. Mr. Satan has just scored 137 Points!"
Satan laughed and shouted to the competitors, "Good luck all you fighters. I hope one of you can at least break a hundred so we can have a decent match."
The monk calmly stated as Satan left the building, "All entries please form a line in front of the punching machine after you have been assigned a number."
Next to him was an old skinny man who said, "And anyone who's entering the junior tournament, please gather over here by me." Jean and the rest already had some seats saved for the Junior competition since that would take place before the main championship.
A number of contestants were still before Harry, including an actual Bear who scored 101 points, but Harry eventually reached it a few places before the Z-Fighters.
"Next Please, Mr. Wizard."
Harry approached when his pseudonym was called and made a show of reeling back before smashing his fist into the machine causing 130 to appear on the board.
"My Goodness! 130 Points! Incredible!"
Harry didn't do any grandstanding, he just got out of the way. He didn't go all out of course. Not with his current stats.

Depending on the AGI stat, the Punching machine's result was about two or three times the STR stat, so with the speed of Hercule Satan's punch, Harry guessed his STR was somewhere between 50 and 70. If Harry went all out without using any boosts, he'd probably get a few thousand considering his own AGI if the machine didn't break, but didn't want the Z-Fighter's attention just yet.
Before heading to the stadium to watch the Junior competition, Harry would of course stay to watch the real show.
"Next Please, Number 18."
The beautiful petite blonde didn't even look at the punching machine where she struck with a lightning fast backhanded jab.
"... 774 points."
Harry sighed. She didn't use Ki and was stronger than Captain Marvel. Harry already used a bit of Technopathy to analyze her existing machinery, but it didn't use physics that made any sense, so it wasn't useful unless he intended to stay, though he might use the concept for reference.
No. 18 was asked to try again and this time she moved more cautiously and barely struck with a two finger jab. "... 203 points."
Krillin, the strongest human on the planet, was next. "192 points.."
Goku was next with 186, and Piccolo followed up with 210.
And last up was Vegeta. After a deafening crunch of shattered metal and wrecked stone, the dust cleared away and the remains of what used to be the Punching Machine were seen at the end of the half destroyed wall.
Harry chuckled before shaking his head and heading up to watch the junior competition and the Organizer said with some hesitation, "Umm We're experiencing a few technical difficulties. But we should be getting a new machine out here pretty quick. So stick around."
Since Harry was participating, he didn't get a seat so did not sit with his wives and instead stood at the top of the seats and leaned on the railing. A few moments later the Z-Fighters came around and joined him. "Hey, it's you."
Harry wasn't sure if he should be surprised, but Goku called out to him. Though he did try for a bit of a low profile, it had no effect on these guys. His magic was still invisible, but his Immortal Dragon Chi and physical strength could easily be sensed by the technique of the Warriors of Earth. It wouldn't feel like Ki, but it would feel like something.
Harry smiled back and said, "Hi, I'm Harry, though for this competition I'm going by Mr. Wizard."
Krillin asked, "Wizard? Why use a name like that?"
Harry shrugged. "Physically I doubt I could beat any of you, but if I fought using Magic, I'd have a chance. Physical enhancement magic only of course. No curses, jinxes or hexes."
Vegeta sneered and looked towards the stadium. He obviously had no respect for warriors who did not fight like he did.
Goku ignored him and politely introduced himself along with the others. Goku felt quite funny to Harry's senses as he was dead. He felt both real and illusionary, like a realistic hologram. Harry's senses told him if something had energy so he'd know if he'd get anything upon killing it, but that sense felt dull on Goku, it didn't feel like Harry would be able to gain anything from killing Goku since the man was already dead.
Before the junior competition started. A blimp flew over with a massive screen on both sides and started playing a video, a re-enactment of the Cell games where everyone was played by actors in terrible masks. The Z-Fighters were groaning moments into the show, with Piccolo clearly stating, "It's sickening.."
Harry did his best not to laugh, but a few escaped. Piccolo turned to glare at him but Harry distracted him by saying, "If you think that's bad, look at Satan. He's in more pain than anyone else."
That drew their attention. Hercule was covering his face with his hands, clearly trying to deny the horror of what he'd unwillingly become a part of. Before the end of the movie he'd already run away in shame, but the audience was so enraptured by the footage of how their savior saved the world, none of them had noticed him flee.
The junior competition eventually starts and it is an embarrassment to the sport. Most of the audience laughs during the fights and it quickly becomes clear the Z-Fighters are only waiting for the finals.
As Harry watched Goten and Trunks fight the mortals, he got a clearer view of Ki. Ki is basically Pure Cartoon physics. During one match, Goten literally flicked a kid appropriately called Big Boomer and the kid flew out of the ring. A flick strong enough to toss a heavy set kid that far should have sheared the flesh off his face and caved in his skull. The only reason it didn't was because the lower gravity of this Earth made it easier to move others with minor forces.
Eventually the finals begin and to no one's surprise, it is Goten Vs Trunks. The referee calls out the start of the match and the pair collide.
Harry had an invisible drone watching and recording the fight and it was a lot more impressive than the cartoon. Dozens of full force blows are exchanged every second without even using Ki to amplify their bodies. Minor shockwaves bounce around the stadium from the impact force of each and every blow.
Every member of the audience except Harry's wives and the Z-Fighter's friends and families are stunned to the point many seem to have forgotten how to breathe. It takes two minutes and nearly a thousand exchanges before the audience collects themselves and starts shouting and cheering in excitement.
The pair weren't going at full speed either. It wasn't tactical to keep full speed at all times. Instead they accelerated and decelerated at various instances to create feints and tricks of the eyes which made it look like they vanished from sight numerous times.
From a purely visual perspective it looked like a dozen or so different people were fighting in the same space, their movements overlapping with one another.
Thankfully it was not impossible for Harry to follow. Though they were not glowing, both were actively using internal Ki to enhance their strength and speed. Harry could sense it and though his stats could not allow him to move at the speed their Ki amplified them to, his Time Magic could, so he was not completely out of his league.
Gohan and Videl showed up not long afterwards and met with the rest. Krillin tried to embarrass Gohan for bringing a girl of course.
Eventually Trunks grabbed Goten from behind and clinched his arms into a painful hold. Goten refused to acknowledge his loss and went super saiyan for a moment to escape. Gohan shouted in complaint that he told Goten not to transform.
As the match continued, Harry sighed and said, "Trunks is going to win."
Gohan noticed him and asked, "Oh, why do you say that?"
Harry explained, "Goten went yellow once and from their arguing, it's safe to assume Trunks can go yellow too. Instead of wasting it to get out of a hold, he'll definitely use it to deliver a final blow. They're both kids so justifying, 'if he did it once, so can I,' is easy."
Krillin asked, "You think so?"
Goku added, "Wait, both can go super saiyan? No way. Those kids are way ahead of us when we were kids."
Vegeta had a brief smirk and no longer seemed to loath Harry's existence.
Goten rose up into the air and dive bombed to the ground to use his momentum to give Trunks a power blow, but Trunks dodged. Goten used a Ki blast at the ground to change direction at the last second, catching Trunks off guard, but as Harry knew was coming, Trunks went super saiyan, dodged the strike, and sent a small energy blast at Goten's back. Goten was already moving at break neck speed due to his dive bomb acceleration and the shot at his back pushed him forward further. In the end, he was unable to slow down before landing on the bleacher seats. Ring Out.
After winning, next was the Exhibition match. The Winner of the Junior Championship against Satan himself. The Z-Fighters showed their enthusiasm by leaving to look for something better to do than watch a one sided smackdown.
Harry stayed, but only because he knew what was coming and had a camera rolling.
Satan of course, having watched enough of the previous fight, knew exactly how screwed he was and wanted to make some excuses to avoid his imminent death.
At this time the crowd started to cheer to get him enthused enough to come out. The standard Cheer was 'Go Satan,' but due to a few small spells Harry cast on the audience, the cheer coming from the stadium this time was a little bit different.
"Hail Satan! Hail Satan! Hail Satan! Hail Satan!"
Harry used every ounce of willpower he had to prevent himself from cracking up.
Eventually Satan was successfully summoned out of his hiding place and he walked over to Trunks with a plan. After a bit of convincing, he tricked Trunks into giving Satan a soft punch. Trunks did so, but he still used Ki to amplify his physical abilities, so the soft punch cracked Satan's jaw, sent him flying, and planted him into the stone wall. A few moments later, Hercule collected himself enough to start pretending he was perfectly fine and that he was faking an injury to throw the match in the name of sportsmanship.
Harry just shook his head. Without cartoon physics, Satan's head would have turned to meat paste and his body would have erupted into gore upon impact with the wall.
With the entertainment out of the way, Harry headed down to the waiting area for the main tournament fighters as the first match would start in 30 minutes.
The floating blue skinned Supreme Kai glanced over Harry as he walked by and his pink skinned assistant Kibito ignored him. Harry would have fun pranking them.
Eventually it was time to arrange the matchups and Harry had every intention of assigning it his way. Bye Bye Canon.
Once Harry saw Mighty Mask had suddenly become very long torsoed with short stubby arms, Harry waved at him and said, "Hey Mighty Mask."
It took a moment for the little pranksters to notice Harry calling them and waved back. That was all the help he intended to give them since they hadn't even bothered to check his name before knocking him out and stealing his costume.
One by one the contestants were called to pick up a number and Harry used magic to ensure the lineup was the way he wanted it.
1 Satan Vs Jewel (Blond pretty boy.)
2 Krillin Vs Pintar (Large body with big mouth.)
3 Piccolo Vs Shin (Supreme Kai)
4 No. 18 Vs Videl Satan (Satan's Daughter)
5 Mr. Wizard Vs Spopovich (Babidi henchman #1)
6 Kibito Vs Yamu (Babidi henchman #2)
7 Great Saiyaman Vs Mighty Mask (Trunks standing on Goten's shoulders)
8 Vegeta Vs Goku
There were a bunch of ways Harry could have arranged it but he didn't want to fight the Z-Fighters in this ring. He'd challenge them later and today, he had another Wizard to prank.
Most of the Z-Fighters were pleased with the matchups with the exception of Gohan, but he knew No. 18 wouldn't hurt his would-be girlfriend so it could have been worse. The Supreme Kai was not particularly pleased. Harry actually felt the man try to arrange Gohan to fight Kibito, but he failed since Harry's magic over-rode his power without him even noticing. The Supreme Kai was stronger than Piccolo and Frieza, but his extrasensory powers paled in comparison to Harry's Infinity Stone strengthened powers. After the matchups were decided, he started to become wary of Harry. Not just because of his chosen name, but because he was unable to read Harry's mind.
The first match started and Satan did some showboating before getting into the ring with Jewel, the only person in the tournament Harry figured Satan could actually defeat. It was either him or Pintar, but Pintar was huge and Satan's skull had been cracked. Harry didn't know if he'd recovered yet from that so he gave Krillin his canon pairing.
Thanks to a certain bit of magic, the crowd was once again cheering for their favorite.
"Hail Satan! Hail Satan! Hail Satan!"
Harry still fought to keep a straight face. No wonder this planet was destroyed considering who they worshiped. They actually renamed the city the man was born in Satan City. Though religion here was quite a bit different than back home.
Satan's fighting style was ironically accurate to his name. He used tricks and feints to deceive his opponent into making an opening and used it to strike. It took more than one shot, but he eventually whittled down Jewel until he won, giving the crowd what they thought was a good show.
Up next was Pintar Vs Krillin. Pintar had the body of a Great Buddha and was multiple times larger than Krillin. The difference was so obvious, the announcer had to comment that some people were complaining that the matchup was unfair to Krillin, and the announcer assured the audience that size didn't matter. Of course, this announcer knew Krillin from years ago and was well aware of Krillin's strength.
Pintar was a bigger showoff than Hercule and gave Krillin a free shot. Krillin graciously accepted and broke through his defenses with ease, causing the man's groan of pain to fill the stadium. Krillin then pimp slapped him a few times for good measure before kicking him off the stage.
Piccolo's match still went as canon. Harry was a bit regretful to do that to him, but Harry didn't have anywhere else to put those two. Piccolo sensed the difference in strength between them and eventually forfeited without a fight.
The next match was No. 18 Vs Videl. The only two women in the tournament and both were beauties, so the match naturally had a lot of cheering from the fans. No. 18 didn't knock her out of the ring, but adjusted her strength until she was just a few levels stronger and fought Videl until the latter was completely worn out. Their speed didn't match the fight between Goten and Trunks, but it was still a rapid paced do or die action packed fight that the fans loved. Videl was a local hero in Satan City and even when pressured she still received the most cheers.
Once it reached the point where she could barely get up, No. 18 whispered to her, "You're not weak, but you still have a long way to go." Videl took a moment to collect herself and noticed that No. 18 wasn't even sweating. She could only accept that her opponent was not someone she could defeat today and eventually she gave up. The crowd still cheered for her because it was a good show.
Hercule watched the entire fight from the side and looked like he was going to have a stroke.
As the pair left the ring, the announcer shouted, "And for our next match, we have Spopovich Vs Mr. Wizard!"
Of the two minions of Babidi, Spopovich was clearly a few sizes larger than his partner. The dark enchantment empowering the guy made him about as strong as the hulk, but he wouldn't be able to use his strength properly. His flesh broke down and restored itself at about the same rate, sacrificing his own lifespan to keep up his strength. Once Harry got a good look at the enchantment, he wasn't surprised Babidi killed the pair. They likely would not have lasted another week even if left alone.
"And let the fifth match begin!"
Harry didn't use any physical enhancements at first. He directly used his full speed and strength to smash Spopovich's chin upward, sending him flying into the air and out of the ring in what looked like a one hit victory. Before landing though, Spopovich started floating. He growled and flew towards Harry with a fist raised.
Test number one completed, Harry started glowing with golden light from his Immortal Dragon Chi. The moment he did so, his hair started standing completely upright and doubled in length.
Harry blocked Spopovich's smash and drove his golden fist into the man's gut, displacing half his organs while rupturing the other half, causing the bald brute to collapse and go down.
The announcer started a ten count, but Spopovich's organs were rapidly reassembling themselves and he was up and fully recovered by the count of five.
Spopovich shouted into the sky and purple light emerged from his body, matching the intensity of Harry's golden glow. Harry launched forward to deal another crippling blow but Spopovich blocked it this time and countered with his own mighty smash. Harry blocked it rather than moved and the pair began an exchange of blows.
The purple energy coming from Spopovich was destructive and similar to the energy of a vicious curse, but Harry's Magic Defense was multiple times higher than his physical defense so it didn't affect him in the slightest. Anyone else exchanging blows with the brute would have to fight off the invasion of the energy that came with every contact blow.
Harry channeled more Immortal Dragon Chi and his hair doubled in length again. It was still standing completely upright and now even taller than he was.
Spopovich's partner Yamu was standing by a wall with a sensor device and seemed pleased at what he was seeing. He ran back inside the main building to get something.
With more Chi being channeled, Harry was now overpowering Spopovich, his blows breaking through the hulking brute's guard and delivering real damage with each exchange.
Spopovich seemed to go completely feral, his eyes turned purple and the energy coming from his body became darker, taking on a completely sinister feeling. He stopped blocking any of Harry's strikes and actually sent Harry flying back with each blow. Spopovich struck him and used his insane speed to get ahead of him and strike him again making it look like a pinball game.
Harry smiled. Warm up was over. He used the Power Stone to amplify his own power. His golden light became blindingly bright for a moment and when he dimmed, his hair was standing over fifty feet tall.
Besides the cheering from the crowd, the one other noise that could clearly be heard was the roaring gales of laughter coming from the seats containing his wives. None of them were able to hold back any longer as they knew the hair growth was just a spell he was using for show, and had nothing to do with his strength.
Yamu returned a moment later with the Life Force Drainer and shouted, "Spopovich! Hold Him!"
Spopovch noticed this and shouted, "Right!" and went behind Harry to grab him. Harry didn't bother dodging, not even when Yamu came up and stabbed him with the energy drainer.
A force of Godly Ki surrounded him and tried to prevent him from moving, but Harry used the Power Stone to amplify the Mind Stone and used it to break the hold, causing a backlash towards the Supreme Kai. He didn't need to, but this was Harry's plan, not the Kai's, and Harry wanted to make that clear.
The audience screamed in horror as it looked like Harry had been impaled. His hair was getting shorter as the meter on the energy drainer climbed higher and higher.
It wasn't Harry's energy of course. Harry's energy could not be drained through something so crude.
After about 30 seconds Harry's hair shrunk back to normal length and he pretended to fall unconscious. The meter on the energy drainer was maxed out and neither Spopovich or Yamu cared about Harry enough to do anything but drop him and fly off.
Several paramedics ran up to the stage, but as soon as Babidi's minions were far enough away, Harry got up, dusted himself off, and teleported away to the confusion of the masses.
About thirty minutes later, Harry was sitting in a beach chair on a rocky hill overlooking a valley. Neither Spopovich nor Yamu noticed him when they flew over and landed in the valley below. They were followed closely by the Supreme Kai, Kibito, Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo, and Krillin.
Since their group actually wanted to hide, they flew down the same rocky area Harry was chilling and spotted him immediately.
Goku shouted, "Hey, you're here."
Harry waved but didn't get up from his beach chair. "Yeah, my fight ran away so I wanted to come over. Took you guys a while to get here."
The Supreme Kai stated, "We were following Spopovich and Yamu. Did you arrive before us?"
"Well yeah. I don't call myself Mr. Wizard for laughs. The signature of the Enchantment cast on Spopovich is all over this area, so it only took me a few seconds to find and I've been waiting for them to show up ever since."
Still frowning, he says, "Well conceal your Ki, we don't want them to be alarmed."
Harry snorted in amusement and the group looked down to see where Yamu was waiting outside a small structure. After a moment, the group seemed to realize it was a spaceship that had been buried completely underground.
Babidi came out followed by a very alien looking fighter Puipui and the Demon King himself, Dabura.
Kibito reacted by nearly shouting, "Babidi has placed the King of the Demon Realm within the palm of his hand?"
The Supreme Kai explained how Dabura was the strongest being of the Demon Realm, though none of the Z-Fighters looked particularly worried.
Yamu handed the energy container to Babidi and the small wrinkled wizard thanked him by making him explode. Spopovich begged for mercy and was rewarded with the same treatment, much to the Z-Fighter's displeasure.
Harry sighed. At this point, their group completely outnumbered Babidi's. Babadi was outside the safety of the ship, and if they blitzed him, it would be game over. Instead, the Supreme Kai had switched to coward mode and wanted to wait for them to bring Majin Buu outside the ship before attacking.
Puipui and Babidi re-entered the ship but Dabura stayed outside.
Goku asked, "Hey, why is Dabura staying outside by himself?"
Harry tossed something to Kibito and flatly stated, "You know, the entire area has a magic alarm system which notifies the caster of who enters it. I didn't trip it when I got here, but all of you did. Also, demons of a certain caliber sense souls, not Ki. Both Dabura and that Wizard have known you were here the whole time."
Everyone looked back down to Dabura who turned to look in their direction and smiled. An instant later, he appeared in front of Kibito and blasted his face in.
Vegeta and Goku moved to attack, but Dabura dodged and observed everyone for a moment. He gave Harry a double take since Harry was the only person he had not noticed before, but Harry was clearly not a threat.
Dabura then spit at Krillin, Piccolo, and Harry.
The Supreme Kai shouted, "Oh No! I should have warned them!"
Krillin shouted in panic as he was petrified alongside Piccolo and Harry. Harry just continued to sit there and chill, not minding in the slightest that he was being turned to stone.
*Ping*
[You have been petrified.]
*Ping*
[Ring of Recovery has automatically activated. Petrification status removed.]
Harry stretched and the stone over him broke off. It had been a minute and Dabura had returned to the ship. No matter what, he always wore that ring since it could automatically remove one status a day, regardless of the effect.
Goku noticed first and asked, "Hey, are you alright?"
Harry replied, "Yeah. Why?"
The Supreme Kai answered, "Because no one can remove the effect of Dabura's spit unless Dabura is dead."
Harry rolled his eyes, got out of his beach chair, and pulled out some Mandrake Potions. He walked over to Piccolo and Krillin and poured the contents over the pair. Moments later, the stone cracked and fell off, revealing the pair safe and sound.
Harry then asked, "Hey blue dude, are you gonna take care of that friend of yours or not?"
It was then that the Supreme Kai noticed that Kibito was not dead. The amulet Harry tossed him protected him enough to allow him to survive the Demon's attack. Though that only worked since the Demon Knowledge Harry had was surprisingly still useful in this Universe. The Kai rushed over and started healing him while letting out a grateful sigh of relief.
Harry said, "Blue dude. You are completely out of your league here. As a wizard myself, I have a plan that will ensure complete victory and get everyone what they want. As a bonus I'll bring Goku back to life."
""""WHAT?!""""
Harry continued, "First off, Gohan can take Kibito back and Krillin and Green dude can leave. This fight is out of your guy's weight category and Gohan can protect you and get you back home. Goku and Vegeta are all we need here."
Goku asked, "And how does that bring me back to life?"
Harry said, "I can't bring a dead person to life, but I can revive someone who is only mostly dead."
Gohan stated, "But my father is completely dead."
Harry nodded, "He is now, but if Blue dude can let me borrow his earrings, we can change that."
The Supreme Kai asked, "My earrings?"
"Yeah. I can sense those are a powerful magical artifact that can fuse two different beings together, multiplying their powers. They are only for your use though, so if someone else uses them, it will only fuse them for an hour."
Goku shouted, "What?! Fusion! And for an hour! No way." That was way better than the Fusion Dance he knew of.
Harry nodded and continued, "If you and Vegeta fuse, you will no longer be all dead, only mostly dead. I can then give you an Elixir that will give your body enough life force to live even after the fusion ends."
Vegeta shouted, "Wait one second! Why would I agree to fuse with Kakarot?!"
Harry telepathically answered the question into Vegeta's mind [Goku was taught out how to break the Super Saiyan wall in Other World. When you fuse, you'll know everything he knows and as long as you think about it during that hour, you'll remember it after the fusion ends. It was something he learned while dead, so unless you plan to die soon, you'll never learn it unless you politely ask Goku for it or fuse with him.]
Vegeta's expression switched back and forth between shocked and furious. He gritted his teeth for a full minute before shouting, "Alright Fine!" Between fusing with Goku or asking him politely how to become stronger, there was only one real option for the Saiyan Prince.
The Supreme Kai wasn't exactly sure about this, but he knew how pure Goku was and a fusion between the pair should be more than enough to stop Dabura and Babidi. He passed his earrings to Goku and Vegeta who put them on opposing ears and a moment later, their bodies flew towards each other and combined.
""Well, well. Isn't this interesting? Since I'm a fusion of Vegeta and Goku, I suppose I'll be called Vegito."" His voice was both Goku's and Vegeta's overlapping each other's.
Harry then passed him a large flask and said, "Elixir of Life. Please Drink responsibly."
Vegito sniffed it before downing the whole thing. He glowed for a moment before stating, ""Oh yes, I felt that. Interesting.""
Gohan asked, "Are you really going to return to life?"
""That does seem to be the case. Go back and return to your mother. There is no longer a need for you to be here.""
Gohan seemed to have no problem with that and flew away with the newly healed Kibito and the rest of the extras.
Harry then said offhandedly, "Don't bother thinking about fighting Buu. Buu doesn't fight. He literally just destroys planets and eats. You're definitely strong enough to beat him, but he'd blow up the planet before you did which would be really annoying. Let's just finish this before you two separate. I can cast a spell which will let you survive in space and let you two fight to your heart's content when this is over."
""Tsk."" Vegito didn't like that he was so easily seen through but if Buu wasn't a good fight, then there really wasn't a point.
The Supreme Kai said, "With your strength, we can follow them into the ship and stop them from resurrecting Majin Buu."
""Now why would I need to go in there when I can make them come to me?""
Vegito created an energy ball and started charging it.
The Supreme Kai shouted, "No! Destroying the ship could awaken Majin Buu!"
Harry replied, "This guy can handle Majin Buu at full power and if he was awakened from the ship being destroyed, he'd only have a fraction of his full strength, so your argument is invalid."
Not that this was entirely true. Majin Buu was not created by Bibidi, but found by him. He had existed since the dawn of time and grew evil from being exposed to the hearts of mortals, similar to how Piccolo turned evil from growing up on Earth and witnessing so much death and war. Destroying him completely was not a matter of energy consumption, but Vegito certainly didn't need to know that.
Vegito finished charging the ball and sent it towards the ship. Harry shielded himself as a massive column of light erupted from the ground, obliterating the whole ship and almost all the inhabitants inside.
Harry used some magics to check and confirmed, "Buu is still sealed. Babidi and Dabura are alive, but that took care of everyone else."
Babidi rose up from the smoke and rubble looking completely furious. "Do you have any idea what you have done?!"
Harry answered, "Now that you can't leave the planet, you can't revive Buu without risking your own death. Am I right?"
Dabura noticed Harry and stated, "Impossible. I turned you to stone."
Harry waved back, "You're losing your touch it seems."
Dabura vanished from sight and reappeared with his fingers extended about to jab through Harry's chest into his heart. The moment he reappeared though, Vegito grabbed his wrist, holding the Demon King in place.
Harry smiled and said, "Hold him right there." Harry then tapped on the Seal on Dabura's head, the one that bound Dabura's loyalty to Babidi.
Dabura screamed in pain and jumped back. Vegito released him as he wasn't a threat.
Black lighting and a shroud of darkness enveloped Dabura and he roared. The skies darkened with ominous clouds and a moment later, a blinding flash of lightning struck Dabura's forehead.
When the light cleared, Dabura's entire body was smoking and he looked like half his life had been taken, but only for a moment. He slowly turned to face Babidi with a fearsome gaze. Babidi's eyes widened in pure shock when he noticed his seal was missing from Dabura's forehead.
Harry smiled. This was the problem when it came to subjugating demons. If you knew what you were doing, it was easier to release them than it was to enslave them. Harry didn't know how many resources Babidi used to enslave Dabura, but he doubted the alien wizard would be able to do it again before Dabura made his displeasure at being enslaved known.
Babidi backed away slowly. Harry used the moment to teleport to the crater and right next to Buu's sphere. He placed a hand on it and smiled before putting it into his inventory. Technically a living thing could not be put into his inventory, but after being transmuted by the energy Harry tricked them into injecting, Buu was no longer considered a living thing, more of an artifact. The energy Harry directed into the Lifeforce drainer was something special he made with the Reality Stone. No matter the Universe, that stone was still OP.
Babidi noticed this and shouted back, "No! Where have you taken Buu? Paparapapaa!"
The ground around Harry transfigured into spikes and shot forth but Harry waved his hand turning the spikes into sand before teleporting next to Babidi.
"What?! Paparapapaa!" A magic barrier formed around Babidi, but Harry didn't move to break it. Dabura had already landed and was walking slowly over to Babidi.
Harry asked, "How does it feel to have everything taken from you? To see the world crumbling around you without any hope in the slightest?"
Harry was not particularly sadistic, but Babidi was, and Harry wouldn't let go of an opportunity to give the little monster a taste of his own medicine.
Dabura chopped the space with a clear motion, destroying the barrier with ease.
Babidi said, "Wait, wait! I can help you. Don't kill me! I just, Paparapapaa!"
Dabura didn't even dodge the heart controlling spell. Babidi looked ecstatic that he was about to regain control, but his face fell when he noticed Dabura wasn't affected in the slightest.
Harry mentioned, "Yeah. Any Demon King who'd get affected by the same spell twice doesn't deserve the title."
Dabura nodded, "Well said." He then shot a bolt of red lightning at Babidi which caused him to shriek in pain. Babidi's body turned red and shrank as Dabura continued firing. Soon Babidi had become a small red sphere. Dabura took it and said, "I will take my time dealing with this one." He then looked at Harry and said, "I owe you. Speak."
Harry answered, "Return to your realm without harming anything in this realm."
Dabura hummed thoughtfully. It was not a simple thing for a being of his power to traverse the realms. Going home was easy, but returning to the Mortal Realm less so. Still, a debt was a debt. He nodded to Harry and flew off, bound by the deal.
Vegito flew over and complained, ""Hey, what was that about? I didn't get to fight anyone!""
Harry shrugged apologetically. "I had a dozen different backup plans that needed your strength, but Babidi was too weak. Sorry. You can take off the earrings though. Once off, I should be able to separate you two."
Vegito removed the earrings and passed them back to the stunned Supreme Kai who still could not believe everything had gone so easily.
Harry then cast his most powerful Magic Canceling spell which removed the remaining effect of the earrings, separating the pair. When back with his own body, Goku looked up and saw that his golden halo was indeed no longer there.
Vegeta was not pleased with the day and said, "You said something about a spell that will let us survive in space?" He still had every intention of fighting Goku today.
Harry nodded and smiled before flying off. The Supreme Kai shouted before they left, "Wait! What did you do with Majin Buu?"
Harry answered, "It's safe and not something you need to worry about anymore. Goodbye blue dude."
The fight between Goku and Vegeta was as epic as Harry knew it would be. He recorded the whole thing. Even if Harry used the full power of all the stones and all his capabilities, he would not be able to defeat either Goku or Vegeta unless the pair refrained from going Super Saiyan. If they didn't, he at least stood a chance.
In another distant part of the Universe, a purple hairless cat-like humanoid woke up from a nap.
