(Shin-POV)
'I Got your message King Kai. What is the matter, that has you sounding slightly worried.' King Kai's thoughts felt befuddled, then Shin picked up on him calming down and felt the reply.
'There is someone among the Frieza Force, whose been moving in and out of my senses my lord. Lord shin, this person also has the exact appearance eh, give or take of Towa-' Shin's eyes widened, remembering that Kron, Vegeta, Goku and Lord Beerus mentioned someone named Demigra, whom had completely possessed that other Towa who was a more evil version of the one now on the side of good.
"Kibito, the other Supreme Kai do not need my assistance at this time?" he turned, facing his attendant who looked to be now in deep thought. Kibito's gaze lingered on the ground for a moment, then turning to face his own.
"No my lord. The others are still; give or take, learning about their old positions in regard to this modern age and still studying their old territories in person. I've also been looking into recruiting some new attendants for their service though so far, I've not been able to decide on the choices." Shin nodded quickly, replying.
"Then I shall need you to report to the lookout, speak with Lord Dende. Tell him that Demigra has been spotted among Frieza's soldiers, seemingly up to some unknown purpose. The others should be warned, before Frieza orders all the survivors to retreat." Shin watched Kibito bow briefly, a nod as he then vanished from his place beside him, he then focused back on King Kai.
'I've ordered Kibito warn Dende. No doubt, Lord Dende shall be in position to express my warning to the others. Though King Kai, do keep an eye out for this being. We've no knowledge of them, I shall ask those other Kai's soon to see if they have knowledge of this person.' King Kai telepathically replied.
'I'll keep an eye out then my lord Shin. And uh, how do you feel about the current events that have just happened. Where Frieza and Cooler are now to be temporary allies and subordinate to Lord Beerus. I see… they might take advantage-'
'-It is concerning, though I'm sure Lord Beerus can handle them. With the destructive energies of the god of Destruction, Lord Beerus really is the most powerful of our galaxy only with that one technique. Kron is a close second, as is Goku and Vegeta when the two of them use the Potara earrings. Demigra… whomever this person is, I shall find out as much as I can and then relay what I've found to the Earth.' King kai hummed, disconnecting with a few last words.
'As you say lord Shin. I'll report his sightings as I can, though once again this person has been… elusive.' Shin felt the connection 'disconnect', Elder Kai was heard nearby giggling in 'that' way, making Shin sigh loudly.
(Dabura-POV)
"Looks like the cowards are fleeing then Mira, let the dogs of Frieza take off in fright or-" Mira ignored him, sneering with one hand raised as he knocked off a couple dozen diabolically-black Ki blasts, flickering with pink bolts of discharging energy. The blasts homed in on multiple groups of targets as they retreated, their frightful gazes back towards them a brief flash before the detonations rippled all around, spheres of chaotic energy dispersing in the vacuum of space. No survivors, though there was that one last of the honor guard still alive, the leader what's his name… Rigll, he and his boys were capable warriors though against them… even these elite honor guard were no match for their power. Only Rigll survived, fleeing from them earlier then the given orders that echoed out from displaced scouters, of which Dabura took one to hear the words.
'From Frieza… they didn't kill him then. Bah, was a fun time while it lasted.' Dabura smirked, wiping some blood from his lower lip, for he went all out against multiple Hera soldiers and the majority of the honor guard while Mira targeted vast swaths of the Hera and the ordinary soldiers, with no regard to leaving any living.
"We're done here Mira. Save your energy, I've felt a presence… hanging on the fringes of my sensing ability-"
"-I felt them, was the one who took the body of the Towa from the darker timeline." Mira growled out, frustration clear to hear from his tone alone. He continued.
"I couldn't even get a lock-on their location during this little exercise. Was waiting for the chance to track them down and kill them…"
"Hmph, seems they were making use of Towa's expert abilities in keeping herself hidden from sensing. Well, we shall-" Mira took off, Dabura watched his Ki flicker greatly, then dimming the further out he got from his previous position, heading for Earth.
"Hot-head. We're is-" Dabura locked on Cumber's location, he was currently using one Hera Soldier; one of the stronger ones whom had the ability to transform much like Zangya could… using the dismembered body as a battering ram onto a few others. Held by one shadowed hand of his, Cumber glared at Dabura when he flickered on over, hand raised and quickly firing off a Ki-blast that tore apart the last Hera fools that didn't hear the retreat order… or didn't care to.
"We're done here Cumber. Pretty much they shall recall this day should they decide on coming back here though with someone like Frieza leading them I doubt that they will have a choice but to return here." Cumber threw the Hera he wielded as a bat, Dabura noting that this person was alive-
-Cumber's shadowhand fired a blast that completely eradicated that one… plus all of the dead floaters that drifted in the expanse of space, then replying with a cold look.
"Whatever then, I'm hungry and I hate being hungry when I know of a good meal nearby. I felt the aura of a 'Super Saiyan God' which also pissed me off for a moment. I assume that Kron, Goku and that dunderhead Vegeta has returned… smashing. I didn't gain any experience at all in disposing these pathetic wastrels, I need someone who can actually fight-" Dabura held the clawed finger of his right hand up, wiggling it side to side while replying, keeping the urge to roll his eyes at bay.
"-Now, now you battle-maniac. Save it for someone who cares about your problems. Head on back, though I've got to ask… did you too also feel someone on the fringes of your ability to sense or is your sensing technique not as… advanced as my own." Cumber growled, right eye twitched though before he could answer Lord Beerus, Kron, Goku, Vegeta, that Cooler bastard and his equally ugly brother Frieza flickered into view. Cumber sneered, turning to eye Beerus, then gloatingly he spoke to Frieza, floating closer some ways.
"Kek kek… Your soldiers… the ones who could had already ran like the cowards they were. Do note the corpses little shit, was a bloodbath-" Frieza flickered forwards though as Dabura and Cumber; who wore a savage grin readied their combat stances, the god of Destruction sighed out before speaking.
"-Frieza is off the table, so too is Cooler. I've taken them both for the team of the future tournament. Though this saves us time I suppose, for yourself Frieza to give off your commands. Now off with you two, we've one more stop before I take Frieza and Cooler back to their territory and leave the rest of you here on Earth. And you two, I take it you understand I want both of you in that same tournament? So train hard." the others, Kron and Vegeta kept quiet while Goku quickly sent the two of them a thumbs up while Frieza sneered at the both of them and Cooler didn't deign them a glance. They vanished once again.
"Cocky bastard that cat is… would be especially joyful if I got to beat him senseless." Cumber glared over at Dabura then, adding.
"There are a lot of remains here… Let's have a quick bout and go all out. Will also disintegrate the remains of these dead in the process of that. Or are you content in the meager fights against those prideful honor guard which turned out to be utter wastes of time!" Cumber's aura glowed, then blazing while radiating around him in an inferno and Dabura glared.
"...I liked you better when you did anything but talk this much… fine, I can put you in your place. Though I will take care not to kill you since we're allies-" Cumber flickered forwards, enraged as Dabura chuckled in turn, seeing his mocking words fully understood; his third eye the 'Tertian Oculus' opened finally, Dabura didn't reply on it during this skirmish… or slaughter.
(Kron-POV)
"It is done then. We shall be watching you two so do not leave your territory once we leave you there. You three can head back to Earth from here I can imagine, very easily." Goku answered with a nod at first, Vegeta snorting while I let Goku reply in his way.
"Yeah Lord Beerus. Will shall be fine right here and uh, will keep an ear out for your return. In the meantime I can really eat, then I guess will be getting in some training until whenever this tournament is to begin. I cannot wait. Frieza… Cooler, you two… I don't want to hear you causing any mischief on either our planet or the planet Namek ever again. Next time, I'll be in a position to show the two of you the error of your ways. Right Vegeta." Vegeta only glared at him, his eyes quickly peered right at the two Cold brothers with unbridled anger, rage simmering on the fringes of his eyes. He turned, arms folded as he didn't deign an answer, instead saying.
"Hurry Kakarot. Let us leave this place, I expect Lord Beerus has to drop off the two rats back in their cages. 'Instant Transmission' us now." Goku shrugged, then pointing a finger at both Frieza and Cooler.
"I warned you two-"
"-Enough you up-jumped monkey. It is expected of your people to say things in arrogance to your betters. Make no mistake, this alliance is temporary and after Lord Beerus has no need for-" Lord Beerus's Ki glowed, chaotic energy swirling in a way that made the temperature on board the glass coffin of a transport to drop to hellish levels… as he growled out.
"-Eh, hurry along now you three. Whis, we're ready to depart now. Go as soon as Saiyan's teleport away from here…" he glared at us in warning, Whis chuckling nearby as he replied simply.
"Yes my lord, as you say. Goodbye for now, Kron, Goku… Vegeta. Will be around in for dinner soon." Goku nodded with a smile and took a hold of Vegeta's right shoulder with a slap, then placing two fingers to his forehead with his freehand, gazing at me now.
"Grab a hold on Kron. I'll take us back." I did so simply, also eyeing in the distance some ways over yonder, what was left of Frieza's P.T.O fleet, the ships flying off the same way they came from, their number dwindled compared to that massive armada that came in force.
"..." I didn't reply with words, placing a hand onto his right shoulder while glaring at Frieza and Cooler, the two lizards eyeing us with mixed assortment of hatred. We flickered from there, reappearing at the front of Goku's door, startling Goku's wife and an excited daughter, Gine jumped her father upon setting sights on him
"Dad!" Vegeta chuckled, for once that frown had left his face for a moment, then reappearing as he spoke whilst floating upwards.
"i depart from here then Kakarot. Kron…" taking off, he leveled his gaze at both of us, Kakarot- -Goku staring back while holding his daughter. I ignored him at first, though then nodded as I too floated upwards.
"I'll go with you then. Good to see you Chichi, Gine. Will not be staying for dinner so remove that wary look from your face Chichi." she laughed awkwardly.
"Y-Yeah then that is less a chore I've on my plate. Well then come Goku, your outfit is tattered, I'll have to burn it… Goku, make a clone and take Gine out with her. She wants…" Chichi's words were no longer heard, Vegeta and eye taking off together.
"So you've seen both Frieza and Cooler now Vegeta. Think you can get to that level of power in a short amount of time. I'm sure I can take Cooler at my best, but Frieza has gone through a dramatic change. Well, whatever. Will have to work with the two while Beerus has them in mind for his team." Vegeta didn't reply for a few minutes, I was almost thinking he was ignoring me when he replied, slightly yelling against the wind.
"Just so long you understand that it shall be I who shall finally deal the killing blow against Frieza… I'm not interested in Cooler beyond his blood ties to that bastard so, deal with him as you want to. Now, with this tournament on the horizon come when, I've got to… actually, your king requires your assistance-"
"-The whole king spiel… you know I don't give a damn that you're the king of the Saiyan's right. I mean, keep it to those lot on Sadala. We're pretty much been brothers in arms since we came to live here on Earth, so what is it you need. Let me guess, you want help to ascend to 'Super Saiyan Five'? I could help out a little, though I've got my own goals in my training; of which the 'Ultra Instinct' ability has my highest priority." his right eye twitched at first, though he did turn away with a scoff, his face in thought for a moment before turning back to face me.
"Whatever… yes, 'Ultra instinct', I've been learning more about that technique that Whis started us on the path to and I wouldn't be opposed to tips. As for 'Super Saiyan Five' as you call it… I will work it out on my own, I'm certain that transformation begins with 'Super Saiyan Four' and something to do with 'Super Saiyan Blue'… I will work this out. Now I'm off, I shall see you tomorrow on the lookout… as is planned, with the others. The recount of hearing of Frieza's soldiers being picked apart… will bring me much enjoyment before I focus back on my training." he took off to the right as I continued on, heading for West City.
(Piccolo-POV)
There wasn't much a worry with all of them intercepting their large force at all, Earth was fine, the people ignorant of the threat hanging over them and Piccolo and his allies all survived the ordeal, simply put… they were much too strong for the cannon fodder, only Frieza, his most elite which managed to survive them… well, except for those arrayed against Mira, Dabura and Cumber. Those Piccolo, Gohan and the others fought off, only the most strongest of their number managed to survive them through sheer will.
Seven-Three surrendered, the only one who did when Merus showed up with that punk Granolah. Merus being a apart of the Galactic patrol also mentioned that none of the other officers wanted to be involved in this assault, for most or all of them feared Frieza. Piccolo didn't mind having another warrior capable of fighting on par with the rest of them.
Merus left Seven-Three here on Earth for now, taking Grandolah with him in order to sign him up on the Galactic patrol, the rest of them made sure to keep an eye on those Frieza Force survivors as they were ordered to retreat, Lord Beerus a clear sight too before he, Lord Whis, Frieza and Cooler… all took off through the use of the gods transport cube… When the last of their men left, they all headed back to Earth and were supposed to meet on the lookout sometime the next day.
Piccolo and Gohan flew towards Gohan's place in Satan City in silence, Piccolo hearing when Gohan sighed before he spoke loudly, to be heard against the wind.
"This is, a lot of lives lost and yet the guy who ordered the attack gets to walk. Makes me a little pissed off with the dad, Vegeta and Kron for not defeating them… killing them both. Also I am annoyed that Lord Beerus wants them, since he must be the reason why my dad and the others weren't able to get them in the end… yet, you and I along with everyone else has blood on their hands because of Freiza's order. Bastard." Piccolo shrugged, hearing the conflict in his once-student, he focused back on in front of them as he spoke up, louder then usual because of their flightpath.
"Frieza and his brother are being used for this tournament, I can see that. Seeing that Frost on Lord Champa's side… Lord Beerus is most likely wanting to one-up his brother with having two of that race on his team. Who I am to know how the gods think. And I know that some of us, you among them are a soft… when it comes to taking the lives of your opponents. But you know, it was either that or let them wreck havoc upon the billions of people of Earth, those who wouldn't be capable of fighting against such a force."
"Yeah, I know… Videl, Pan… Hercule, mom, Goten… Gine. A lot of others, who were counting on us all to stop them all. I… whatever this tournament is, I just want to train for it and get it done and finished. Then I can focus on other things, not just through the use of my clones and… focusing on training at all times. Sometimes I think my clones live better lives then I do! Heh. Anyway, thanks Piccolo for hearing me out." Gohan took off in a burst, his Ki then flashing around him, Piccolo whispering to himself as a small smile appeared then vanished.
"Yeah Kid, anytime. And I called him soft." he chuckled, then with renewed focus, decided to head for familiar ground… Yunzabit heights.
