Chapter 231 - Chapter 231

(Meanwhile)

"Super Flash Bomber!" Super Android 17 shouted as his fingertips stretched out and unleashed a torrent of golden energy blasts that went streaking across the sky like a rainbow. The miniature attacks curved along the atmosphere like missiles, wiping out a massive portion of Sentinel's Starfleet while the majority of the beams spanned the remainder of the earth's surface.

Their main target, Sentinel himself, ended up flying headlong into them.

Pursuing his foe to another part of the continent, the silver android looked up in alarm when he saw the golden attacks heading towards him and skidded to a stop in midflight. Crossing his arms over his face, the synthetic warrior then metaphorically held his ground as the energy bullets slammed into him and began tearing into his metallic flesh. Little by little, the golden attacks chipped away at his body and took big chunks out of his form, drawing a growl of pain from the silver warrior and prompting him to peer through his guard.

Realizing that the attack would not stop anytime soon, the abomination of an android then decided to act and, with a brief moment of concentration, vanished in a golden flash of light.

Seeing his foe teleport away, Seventeen jerked upwards in alarm and cut off the energy to his attack. When he spun around, he saw his opponent emerge from his Instantaneous mode of travel and dive at him with a punch. Avoiding it, the long haired man began trading lightning fast, devastating blows with the automaton, watching as the tyrant's wounds regenerated at the exact same time their punches and kicks collided with one another. Both shouting with every blow as they streaked across the sky, the fused android then drove his boots into Sentinel's chest and kicked him away, allowing him to get some much needed space.

Flying backwards across the sky, the good android drew his hand back and swung it through the air, firing a spray of golden beams at his enemy. This shotgun attack flew towards Sentinel and bombarded him relentlessly, puncturing holes across his chest and torso. Riddled with holes and noticeably winded from the damage, the silver fighter glared up and, cracking open his mouth, unleashed a massive pink energy wave that charged towards the fused warrior with the intent of incinerating him in one shot.

However, Android 17 was ready for it, throwing out his hands and catching it, and promptly absorbing the mass of ki in the blink of an eye. The moment the blast was absorbed into his body, he then charged towards his foe with blinding speed and threw a kick across his opponent's face. The blow, enhanced by the newly absorbed spurt of energy, impacted with a deafening thunderclap, sending blood flying from Sentinel's mouth and the android himself spiraling across the heavens. As soon as he dispatched his foe, the Super Cyborg flew after him with the intent of reengaging.

Managing to halt his flight along its projected path, the dazed Sentinel then looked around and swung the tentacle atop his head forward. The instant the tip jabbed out, it unleashed a pink, electric beam towards his cyborg counterpart.

Knowing exactly what that attack was capable of, the approaching Seventeen activated a blue energy field and deflected it. When the electrical pulse bounced uselessly off of his shield, he continued his charge and buried a fist into his opponent's face, caving it in. When the blow landed and knocked Sentinel a few yards back, the fused automaton then teleported above him and drove a kick straight down onto the boss's head. The blow connected loudly and sent the silver, regenerating warrior towards the earth, which he slammed into with an earthshaking tremor and a geyser of debris.

The cloud of dust from his impact lifted high into the air and when it eventually settled, it revealed that the silver warlord had landed on the very outskirts of the ruined West City, where the majority of the fighting was now taking place.

Lying at the bottom of the crater covered in gashes and dirt, the stricken Sentinel groaned as his wounds slowly healed over. Adjusting his jaw and feeling the joints and tendons heel, the silver Oscar-statue of a man then looked up to see his opponent land on the edge of the crater and look down at him in disgust.

For a few seconds, Android 17 contemplated attacking the guy and punching him right into the center of the planet. But before he could make sense of any of his options, the cyborg fighter then heard a series of loud sonic booms and looked across at the nearby city in surprise. It was then he saw the fleet Sentinel had called upon land around the metropolis. Like a scene taken straight out of a sci-fi film, the silver army of battleships and destroyers descended into the ruins, with smaller, drone-like craft flying out to patrol the planet.

When the raven haired man looked upon the enormous army with displeasure, he then looked back towards the leader of the armed forces and saw the android chuckle at him darkly.

Injuries finally healed, the still sprawled out Sentinel leered at his foe. "You know as well as I do what this means, Seventeen." The silver warrior lowered his head and cast a foreboding shadow across his gaze. "Your friends have failed… and I've won."

The fused android's glare hardened considerably as a gentle breeze whipped through his hair. "Not yet."

Smirking at his bravado, the silver plated android suddenly widened his eyes and spiked his energy, executing a move Seventeen did not expect. "Solar Flare!" A blinding flash of white light then exploded from the automaton's body, flickering like a strobe that had Android 17 take a big step back and shut his eyes.

Squinting through the haze of the technique, the long haired android then sensed his opponent thrust his hand forward as if to fire a blast, which prompted him to guard high with both arms to absorb it.

The instant he did however, a loud 'squelch' followed by a gasp of shock rang out. When the flashing light of the silver man's supplementary move faded seconds later, it revealed Sentinel had speedily leapt to his feet and, after morphing his arm into a spike similar to the T-1000, had run it straight through Super 17's stomach and out the other side. Now the teenage warrior found his body standing impaled against the taller man's limb like a piece of meat, a stunned look on his face and his arms held protectively in front of his face. This defensive maneuver had inadvertently left him wide open below the chest, allowing his foe the perfect opportunity to strike.

Grinning widely, Sentinel twisted his limb in the man's stomach and watched in satisfaction as he spat up blood. "I have now." Then, without a hint of hesitation or remorse, he removed the spike from the android's stomach and allowed Seventeen to stumble backwards in shock, clutching his gaping wound. His limb morphing back into a hand, the silver tyrant observed in quiet curiosity as his stricken enemy collapsed to his knees and attempted to stop the blood from flowing. "Earlier I noticed that your body was unable to defend itself from physical attacks while you're absorbing energy… a weakness Doctor Gero failed to scrub out of his models. You got careless."

Gritting his teeth, Super 17 looked up to glare hatefully at his foe. "Do you honestly think… I'm going to let… something like this… stop me?"

Sentinel shrugged, "Maybe? But that all depends on whether or not you'll be able to defend yourself from this." He then held his hand forward and began charging energy for a final blast. Sphere of ki forming, the silver android watched his enemy's expression twist into one of alarm. "Well Seventeen… it's been fun. But I'm afraid that our time together has sadly come to an end. Good bye." He then finished gathering energy and prepared to wipe his foe off of the face of the planet.

It was only when he was primed and ready to launch his finishing move at his wounded quarry, the silver warrior's sensors suddenly went off and his eyes snapped over his shoulder. At that exact moment, the metal monster of a conqueror slipped to the side just in time to dodge a swinging hook from Bulma, the mech-wearing woman attempting to impale him with some sort of needle she was holding in one of her massive gauntlets. The blow was barely avoided, but as a result, Sentinel had to cancel his final move on Seventeen, who collapsed onto his back when the raven haired fighter also had to avoid the woman blowing past them.

Applying the airbrakes, the blue haired heroine in the yellow armor halted her charge and spun around to see her target land a safe distance away. With a valiant cry of battle and a boost from her rockets, the scientist hurled herself at the silver warrior once again, striking out with the only arm she had left on her suit. This time though, when Sentinel avoided the blow, he also wound up grabbing the mech's arm, and tossing the unit over his shoulder and straight into the ground. The instant he slammed the machine into the floor with an earth splitting 'crack', he then slammed a foot into its chest and grabbed the top portion of the suit.

With a single, effortless pull, he ripped the entire top-half of the mech from the pilot, whose stunned face instantly revealed itself from underneath the shell. It was as soon as the protective helmet and armor was torn free from its host that Bulma tried one last time to jab the prick with her arm, only for Sentinel to catch her thrust with his hand and begin to slowly crush the limb under his powerful fingers. Unlike Vegeta before him, thanks to the Godly strength granted to him from years of absorbing people and integrating their minds and fighting styles into his software, he pushed back the limb without a single budge or twitch, allowing him to hold his would-be assailant at bay, and keep her pinned under his foot.

She was done.
