Nozomu: “Kasai! That's not what Amaterazu has guided us towards!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAAfKhadubJJ
Kasai: “I can't settle for Amaterazu's vision, you lost a king, I lost my father! Even if our destiny is to defeat this perpetrator, death alone cannot suffice the suffering he has put me through, he must grieve too!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANABZlzDvrXfA
Pouwar: “Look, Kasai, normally I don't like to agree with Nozomu's boring suggestions, but I think he's right. This isn't like you or any of us to do!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAX31iBhsaoe
Kasai: “With my father gone, that makes me the new king in his honor right?”
23Please respect copyright.PENANARJayhEOmOj
Pouwar: “Well… Yeah, it does.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANADbcyHTuf5K
Kasai: “Then as my first order as my father's successor, I order the both of you to quit going against my decisions. I simply believe he owes me for what he did to my father, I'm no monster, it is the law of war.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAmyChsrxSK4
Kasai turned to Goten before shifting his look towards Chichi.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAAM4wwdOijy
Kasai: “The child is far too young, it would be shameful of me to let emotions get in the way of my honor. The mother will suffice.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA5Oegt7o7Q4
Goten burst into his super saiyan form, charging towards Kasai with all his might and fury.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAV085Jo14q7
Goten: “Leave my mom alone!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAoKXJwpahSo
He shot his fist to Kasai's face, only to get intercepted by Pouwar who struck him with a punch that threw him off course and knocked him unconscious, reverting Goten back into his base state.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAFPyfOIT39Q
Chichi: “Goten!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAQm3O25cChi
Pouwar: “That kid's power shot up in a second! If the father can do that, we're going to have to be careful.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAB2bD6Klijg
Kasai: “We'll deal with that criminal in a moment, but first, let's take this one out. Shouldn't be an issue now that the child won't be able to witness this. “
23Please respect copyright.PENANA3OCKvFniQ2
Chichi: “Get out of my home!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANApCUCV99TTd
Tears ran down Chichi's eyes, her stance remained sturdy but her spirit was aware that there was nothing she could do.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAhOZf0Sq2MG
Kasai: “I'm sorry.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAny0pVWFq5G
Kasai declared before preparing to strike Chichi down.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAEYS7xoMzEz
"Get away!'
23Please respect copyright.PENANAOg3SVnITi1
Goku barged in, kicking Kasai in his face, tossing him outside his home. He looked at Chichi with shame.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAdxHdiUgAcm
Goku: “Chichi-”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAI0GbxgUo2B
Chichi: “There's no time for that right now! Go do what you have to do. I'll get Goten to safety.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAEOF7YzpcnF
Goku: “Right!’
23Please respect copyright.PENANAGNklnEwsGu
Kasai's allies hurried to their damaged leader.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAS8YxutvGaF
Nozomu: “Kasai! Are you okay?”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAeIJH34v3Rh
Kasai stood with little effort.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAwRD7YSmBOI
Kasai: “I'm fine my comrades, he simply got me off guard.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAbvUd7Ejfhf
Goku leapt into action.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAYTgYK0gbQk
Goku: “I don't know who you three are, but you're not welcome here! I'd suggest you leave before things get ugly!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA4J19wDGz5o
Kasai: “How dare you! Before things get ugly? You've taken from me the man who raised and influenced my very being! He would've grown into retirement and proudly watched me become king! But you stripped away that opportunity from me, and for that, you mustn't be forgiven, ever.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAT1J2PaQL4K
Goku: “What are you talking about? I've never met you before.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAPRYa2xvV56
Kasai: “Yeah, you haven't, but you're about to. Pouwar! Nozomu! Battle positions, now!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAfcmOzED26F
"Right!"
23Please respect copyright.PENANAsRyi4HQyJy
His allies shouted in union as they took a stance. Their forms were odd but united, each corner seemingly protected by each other.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAGmtwhvfXGJ
Kasai: “With this stance we developed, no one will ever break through our defense! All together, attack!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANApdxhJUa1Ey
The trio shot a combined ball of fire towards Goku. With no time to react, he was left with no choice but to teleport away. He appeared behind Pouwar, instantaneously taking his super saiyan blue form to launch his assault. His attack was haulted by Nozomu.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAyENiYm7Ot2
Pouwar: “Dragon's breath punch!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA5AtW6dW0KC
Pouwar delivered a powerful counter strike that knocked Goku further away from them. The force of the punch alone set the forest on fire and blew away a massive chunk of the landscape.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAuXqLrAbKVL
Kasai: “If we continue like this, our collateral damage will put at risk others who are not associated with our mission, we must lead this barbarian towards an isolated area.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA1alNpgRDfg
Kasai's allies nodded as they followed him towards the sky.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAZNeIqkQ4u3
Kasai: “Come with us, murderer! We shall take this battle elsewhere, somewhere in which we can really go all out!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAbFLLgCqVAY
Kasai and his group retreated from the field, Goku without a second thought followed.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAWDS5lR6xBj
"I don't know where they're headed, but anywhere away from ChiChi and Goten is better than nothing."
23Please respect copyright.PENANA79sQuB1qpB
Goku thought.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAs92Ut18Lhd
Kasai: “This is the perfect spot.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAG90CYOlrqc
The trio landed on a grassy field with large hills nearby. They stared Goku down, preparing to engage once more.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAgGugLf98FN
Goku: “I don't know what you're after, but I won't let you torment my family any further!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA91ngzyRZlP
Kasai: “Your family is the least of our concerns. It's you we're after, for the better of our people, and for the honor of my father!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAdXhde7A8rz
Goku: “If you won't stand down, then so be it. I'll force you guys to leave.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA9MEMCR78XW
There was no need for words, everyone felt the tension and knew it was time to act. Without any further speech, the battle continued. Goku dashed to the trio, shooting a barrage of ki blasts while approaching, in an attempt to break their formation.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAKq2rGOjKBl
Nozomu: “Kasai, he's trying to overwhelm us!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAZnGBl9phCX
Kasai: “All together! Dragon barrier!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA4Ft392xxaC
The trio created a force field of flames which melted the ki attacks as soon as they made contact. Goku arrived with the trio, throwing a jab at the barrier but stopped right before making contact.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAK6849JEwFv
Goku: “That barrier is scorching hot, I'll burn myself if I try to break it like this!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA2445v2Mf48
The trio took advantage of Goku's pause, they withdrew the barrier and began their counter strike.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAqEA0D8nHeL
Kasai: “Burning dance!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA3iS1TCDckC
Kasai struck Goku with a flurry of kicks, amplified with fire. The last kick sent Goku back a few feet. Pouwar caught him in a troublesome hold before Goku could regain his balance.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAWIMDou40cY
Goku: “This g-grip, is too strong!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANATHrlhWh2yt
Kasai: “Nozomu! Together! Elegant flames of the sun!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAmtyJ6pl59B
Kasai and Nozomu stood side by side in perfect sync as they took on a sturdy stance, right before unleashing a rapid barrage of flaming strikes to Goku's upper body, simultaneously.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAVarFb2a2EH
"What makes them so powerful? Even with this choreographed fighting style, this kind of power is absurd!"
23Please respect copyright.PENANAGASEDyTHYz
Goku thought.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAuVShhK7uex
Goku: “Kaioken!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA3ikPN9rmmw
The sudden burst of power broke the hold, Goku took the opportunity to strike all 3 of his opponents away, creating distance between them. Kasai caught his balance.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAtpbBIyxDqi
Kasai: “What was that? His power suddenly burst and disappeared as quickly as it came!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAPWFEWVsy70
Goku: “You're all pretty good, it makes me wonder what makes you all so powerful. I'm actually getting excited!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAcQTqT6uAJT
Kasai: “I refuse to entertain a criminal scum such as yourself, pipe down and fight!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA9mW8PxRpzC
Pouwar: “Kasai, let me do it please! There's no one around to get hurt!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAZsDXZrsxyh
Kasai: “Fine, go ahead Pouwar, give him your all!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAKIwwvttBnM
Nozomu: “Wait! Kasai! Could this planet really handle such an attack?”
23Please respect copyright.PENANARcvehVFrmn
Kasai: “Pouwar knows what she's doing, she's a royal elite after all. Now let's get in our positions, Nozomu.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAL6wlrkXIzn
Nozomu: “Right!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAiquSA7b0Mb
Kasai and Nozomu separated, each taking the left and right sides of Pouwar. Pouwar charged a ball of flame from her mouth, the flames gushed out as she charged, revealing a frightening level of heat. Goku took action and charged at Pouwar, hoping to stop her from finishing her attack, his efforts however, were futile as Kasai and Nozomu entangled his arms and legs with ropes of fire, each of the elites were in charge of bounding either both arms or legs. The flames burned Goku, putting him in agonizing pain while restricting his body.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAzFTzMocI4J
Goku: “This fire, this heat, it's not any ordinary flame, it's infused with ki! Not just any ki either, I get it now, this is divine ki! Could they be gods?”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAiK7UFfYyJ2
Pouwar: “Dragon's Roar!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA4QEl1QPZdQ
A frightening surge of fire shot out of Pouwar's mouth, her other two allies were forced to let go of Goku in order to shield themselves with a combined barrier. Goku used the short time to push the flames back with an attack of his own.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAOrxK8nuBV7
Goku: “Kamehameha!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAHiXS8tJUl6
The beam clashed with the flames. The fire had gotten too close for Goku to push back at maximum strength, it was closing in on his kamehameha wave.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA2mi40xcAkl
Goku: “Damn it! I have to surrender the struggle!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA3xrSXXduUA
Goku made good use of the instant transmission technique and evaded the attack. The flames burst everywhere, completely disintegrating everything in sight.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAVDM82u83Cy
Pouwar: “Just as I thought! He wasn't able to take it! Haha! That attack could light up galaxies!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANABkIvbWJiM7
Nozomu: “No! Pouwar! He's behind you!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANARxDHQvfElm
Pouwar turned around, only to be met by Goku's fist, illuminated with a blue aura. Goku punched Pouwar in the face, sending her crashing right through one of the many hills nearby.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAbgpURBi7SP
Goku: “I've seen it now. They fight in a formation, that big one I just hit is the muscle of the group, the talkative one seems to be the commander. They don't act without his approval. The last one must be a support, he's always next to the leader. If I want to beat these guys, I must separate them from each other.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAjF5HVLep3h
Goku shot a beam of ki at Pouwar to further the damage. He then split into many after images, having them all pace around Pouwar and Nozomu.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAJOdUbpkT10
Nozomu: “He made clones!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAc1m9MjsVVr
Kasai: “No. Look closer, these are illusions… he should be.. Right there!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAHKA7GuwIAn
Kasai struck one of the Gokus, the illusion faded, proving to be a fake.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAglmRPVX5Uo
Kasai: “Impossible!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAbKomaOWfYv
Nozomu: “Kasai! The real one is right there! Duck!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA6QetUt2icV
Kasai crouched to avoid the incoming Goku, Nozomu shot a ball of fire at him in order to protect his off guard ally.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAILwtsJJayy
Nozomu: “No way! That wasn't him either!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA2SiP7W6d8v
The real Goku made his appearance, kicking Kasai far enough to get him away from the battlefield. Goku rushed Nozomu with a barrage of different punches and kicks. Nozomu fended off the attack but had no room for a counter strike, he was being backed into a corner. Goku eventually found an opening, striking Nozomu in the liver with a kick and following it up with a hook to his face, ending the combo with two beams of energy from both of his palms.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAODGsJzBXI6
Goku: “Haaaaaa!!!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAu2UPMoeHDB
Nozomu went crashing to the ground. Kasai and Pouwar arrived back into the battlefield.
23Please respect copyright.PENANABCiLAuU7Ct
Kasai: “Nozomu! He's taken considerable damage, this bastard broke through our formation!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAe8XL76RQGE
Pouwar: “He'll pay for hurting Nozomu!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAqG68m9xPT9
Kasai: “Pouwar! wait!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAOzFEh6CuGz
Pouwar charged towards Goku, blitzing passed his perception.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAThrXO5OyAN
Pouwar: “Take this!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAen6BL0QPiw
Pouwar was suddenly knocked away before she could land her attack on Goku. Goku looked around in confusion until he noticed a group of familiar faces and smiled in relief.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAdA13Btlfwg
Goku: “Thanks Piccolo!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAHm5EvvpNqg
Piccolo: “We had to wait a bit to make sure, but once Vegeta contacted us, we knew our suspicions were true. We couldn't let you fight this alone, Goku.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAsWc0WofN8A
Piccolo stood with more of Goku's friends including Krillin, Yamcha, Tien and Vegeta. Goku looked at Kasai with confidence.
23Please respect copyright.PENANATcNJn5OFr5
Goku: “It's over, go back to where you came from. You can't take all of us at once.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAHeZNgR7JwA
Kasai retreated to his allies.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAFqPRb3mr1f
Kasai: “Our one on three formation didn't hold up like we hoped, it's time for us to take things further. My comrades, we came here for enlightenment, for a better world, and for me, I came here for revenge, but we've got something bigger now don't we? Now, we must prepare for a war! This is the moment my brothers and sisters! The hope of our people rests within us! We mustn't let them down! We tried the easy way, but now it's time to put Amaterazu's gifts from our training to use.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAru025bs21Z
Pouwar: “I was hoping it would come to this, hehe.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAlxMM8YQm81
Nozomu: “If there is no other choice, in you we trust, Kasai.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA1cydoUZak7
Flames burst from the trio's bodies. Their scales sharpened even more, their forearms and legs became wrapped with undying fire.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA4ms449Te9M
Goku: “Their power! It's skyrocketing!”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAg7lVsG1guD
Kasai: “This is our blessing from the fire God himself, consider yourself lucky to witness a fraction of his power!”
