Inside a large forest that was a good dozen kilometers away from Central City a couple of well know friends hung around one of the large tree shadows. Eating while they sat on a large red picnic mattress positioning themselves around a circle with each of their positions around the food and drinks.

 

All has been good and calm these past few days, a few weeks had passed since their hardcore training ended finally giving them a breath of freedom and rest.

 

Today they had agreed to come together for this small takeoff; Krillin, Yamcha, Puar, Chiaotzu, Tienshinhan, and even Launch who was the one who cooked most things while having Chiaotzu's help.

 

Talking between themselves while filling their plates, laughing seeing Krillin almost choking on a piece of meat, they laughed while pointing their chopsticks at him for a few seconds until Yamcha who was laughing the hardest until karma struck and himself started choking on rice somehow.

 

Getting his revenge without even doing anything, Krillin drank a cup of orange juice to help his situation, sighing happily seeing Karma hunt down his wolfman friend.

 

 Picking his chopsticks to get back to eating after a few more laughs another topic was brought up from Tien's side.

 

" So.... How has your guys' training been so far since we exited the Chamber? I will go straight ahead and say mine have been negligible... *looks away*... It's too harsh to say for sure given only a few weeks have gone by so far... But so far.... Solely my techniques have been improving at a steady rate..."

 

Looking up at the leaves, a few even fall down smoothly around them in a beautiful scene. The air now getting suddenly heavier, but all those who also trained there knew what the triclops meant....

 

It was strange....They did know their growth wasn't something compared to Saiyans or even Piccolo's after he fused with those guys they heard of..... But to be stagnated at such a level was pretty frustrating for the Human Fighters.

 

Seeing the aura around everyone get depressing, Launch who was in her blue self was quick to try and cheer everyone up even if she herself knew little about the situation. 

 

" Come on guys! I'm sure you all will get even better! Just gotta work harder and do your best!"- A flowery aura shone brightly all over their face to an almost blinding level.... Her words were mostly ignored because she was blinding everyone.

 

Letting a small chuckle while holding his arm up to protect himself from the bright girl, Yamcha was the least sad of the bunch.- " Hey! Don't look at it like that Tien! Look at how powerful we are! Me and Krillin almost split the whole ocean while we were sparring the other day in a single punch-to-punch clash! Isn't that insanely cool enough!"

 

Holding his small rice bowl up high while almost shouting, he was quick to get back to eating, already knowing the power they had was something one would call Godly, they could blow up planets and more if they wished to!

 

And even if there were guys way more elevated than them.... Like they reassured the hard way once more inside the HTC.... At the time they thought Goku as a child was a little demon.... Now they laughed at themselves back then....

 

Knowing there were Monsters one shouldn't even think of looking at directly, it was similar to the Abyss situation. If you look at it, better expect it to look directly back at you, not in a good way and a hundred times more intimidating.

 

Stopping their chopsticks mid-motion, the other Fighters looked at their food pensive... The long-haired man wasn't wrong.... They didn't know what they were expecting.... But.... Even if it was unreachable....

 

" Yamcha.... You come to gain my respect after experiencing firsthand your will when it comes to really working hard and as a friend... I see where you're coming from.... Heh... Now... As a martial artist..... Didn't we think back then that our current power was something we would never reach?...." - Getting back to eating, Tien smirked to himself... He was getting slow gains, yes.

 

Even so, he was still progressing... Like their Angel Teacher told them before departing.... Patience was something simple, but many lacked it.... He wouldn't give up, although the frustration was still something he needed to see if his friends shared.

 

Flinching, the wolfman didn't have words to counter that statement and continued eating. The next five minutes were only fueled by the sounds of plates and bowls clicking, a calming scenery aided by the chill breeze that ran through the forest.

 

Today was a good day.... The first one that all of them came together after separating at the Lookout that day actually. 

 

Right after getting back to their home Tienshinhan and Chiaotzu were somehow found by Launch yet again, sharing the cooking role with Chiaotzu, both friends continued training like they always did before while Launch tried her best advances on the triclops who didn't want anything to do with the double-faced woman. Only seeking the betterment of his skills, power, and mind. 

 

Yamcha got back to playing baseball as a pro and winning even easier than ever as usual, when he was free he would go around the city followed by Puar.... At least he did make it his priority to go find Krillin at least four times a week so they could train and still advance in their respective paths.

 

The bald monk himself didn't do much different from before, mediating a lot and spending most of his time training regularly or chilling on the couch watching TV when the perverted Turtle Master wasn't drooling over some girls' yoga section.

 

Followed by their silence no one had anything more to further add and so the sounds of munching and cups moving around reigned for a few short minutes until the inevitable hit them.

Stopping their chopsticks or anything they were holding, eyes widening and mouths almost dropping down to the ground hearing that out of nowhere. 

 

A warning. Not a simple one, one coming from the little girl they were told by the Angels that trained them to never even think of trying to be disrespectful towards....

 

"Uhh....Guys? Is there something wrong? You all look pale...."- By the side tilting her head almost fully horizontally was Launch, confused why all the fighters had such shocked faces.

 

Floating around Yamcha while eating an onigiri, Puar was also feeling very strange towards their sudden cease of any movement, he tried to ask them but was caught off guard by them all standing up in synchrony.

 

Sweating, they meet eyes, nodding in confirmation that all of them heard it.

 

" Maaan..... We just got through two years of pure hardships inside that chamber.... Now after just a few resting weeks we already gotta go against some guys who could rival 𝑻𝑯𝑨𝑻 girl a while back? 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓'𝐒 𝐔𝐏 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐋𝐔𝐂𝐊?!"

 

Having a breakdown, Yamcha starts spouting how they trained so hard and how they couldn't even rest properly, going into much more nonsensical stuff.

 

" You know.... If he didn't, I probably would've. Hm*Nods*" - Happy that he wasn't the only one sharing these feelings Krillin wanted to scream loudly feeling that in his best friend's direction, a sudden burst of power just occurred, same for Capsule Corp's direction.

 

Very familiar energies that were moving away from any civilization, after them another set was quickly closing in themselves.

 

Frowning and also feeling it, Tienshinhan was the one who took the initiative while starting to levitate. - " They must be coming for us next. You all! Let's go! We need to find somewhere far away like the others so we don't get innoc-"

 

*𝑽𝑼𝑺𝑯-*

 

Cutting in the triclops sentence, the sound of a blast could be heard looming closer at blinding speeds from above about to hit them, it was something their noncombatants' friends couldn't even dream of noticing.

 

And even our own warriors only noticed it once it broke through the leaves of the large trees ready to blow them into nothingness. Moving fast while his mouth was still open mid-sentence, Tien didn't have time left, a white aura exploding briefly around his body, and from his back eight blurs shot out.

 

" 𝑯𝑨𝑯!!!!"- *𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐌!!!!*

 

Screaming for a second his voice was silenced by an immense explosion that took hold of the entire forest they were chilling in, not reaching the city luckily. Even though the people there did feel the immense shockwave shaking everything around their place and even bringing down quite a lot of buildings in the process.

 

And it happened shortly after an announcement from the Briefs about a possible catastrophe was transmitted further adding to the seriousness of their situation.

 

Back to where the blast had hit, everything around the beautiful green scenery... Was now nothing more than just a large hole, it looked even melted slightly. Like something corroded it.

 

 Now, nothing more than a deep crater that had a giant cloud of dust and black smoke floating up toward the sky with seemingly no end.

 

" Hmmm..... Boring.... That Gohan guy was stronger than this... Why didn't Fu let us test this Timeline's one?" - A masculine teenager's voice rings out in the silenced destroyed grounds, his smooth long black hair and orange scarf floating around the wind as he watches the crater behind his mask.

 

Arms crossed and hovering above the once forest, thinking how much he had expected this place's people to be strong, Fu was hyping them about not lowering their guard even for a second. 

 

" Don't be like that, these guys weren't even Saiyans. We were expecting too much from the beginning and you know that... We probably are just taking care of the trash while those two take on the real ones. Tsk! Let us watch it at least damnit!" 

 

 Annoyed, a blonde-haired girl bearing a mask similar to the teenage boy, she fixed her hair to the side of her own mask mildly annoyed that they wouldn't be able to have their own fun.

 

" Heh, we were told to make sure these were dead and return to the lab, 18.... Now.... *smirks arrogantly*... It seems I was too harsh to judge."- Not moving even an inch, 17 squeezes his eyes slightly, seeing a curtain of smoke and dust that was cleaning itself giving view to a few shadowy silhouettes.

 

"Uh?*looks down*.... Oh... It seems it won't really be all that bad....." - Gaining a smirk of her own, 18 is pleased to see what appears after the curtain of dust that was covering their view finally fades.

 

" *Huff*.... I... made it.... in time!" - Eyes grimacing heavily, the triclops had his arms stretched forward.... the main pair he normally had was that is! Three more sets were sprung all around him, a total of eight arms.

 

His white aura still burned, but this time a bit different. It had taken the shape of a barrier dome, protecting his friends and himself from the sudden explosion that they never expected to come so abruptly.

 

Now that they were fine his aura retracted all the way to his body, now only a small glowing white layer enveloping himself. 

 

As for the ones who were protected.... Well, they did try to act in time but had techniques to help everyone together in such a short time. Yamcha could've tried to use his Neo Wolfang-Fist to try and redirect the blast, but the window of time was too small and he felt something wrong in that blast.

 

Another one would be Krillin, he had the resistance and was pretty confident about being able to tank that attack using his current strength... Even with his fast charging techniques, it wouldn't aid much, firing another blast onto that one could end really badly. And he didn't even feel that attack coming..... These guys didn't have any power signature they could feel for some reason.

 

Lastly, Chiaotzu.... He is strong, but trying to stop that blast which he only saw as a framed blur was like an everyday worker human guy trying to stop a tank using only his body....

 

To add in for the bystanders, Launch and Puar were oblivious to everything until the explosion happened where they stood... This wasn't the best of times to be having a picnic....

 

*USH!*

 

Getting into his stance, Tienshinhan stared at the twins. This attack proved that the situation was way worse than they expected....

 

The shit trains weren't stopping so soon though, soon rumbling and earthquakes took hold of everywhere. Leaving the twins to chuckle while conveying something about some 'other two' having fun.....

 

Clenching all his knuckles tightly, Tien felt his friend's powers on the other sides of their planet fighting fiercely against their own opponents, he knew Earth wouldn't leave unscathed today.... The same could be said about themselves.

 

" Guys.... It seems our training will be put to use way sooner than we expected...Chiaotzu.... Get Launch and Puar away... I know you want to help my friend..... But, these guys... There's something I can't quite put my finger on... ." - The triclops watched the twins carefully, any movement could be the start of something here.

 

Nodding even if redundant, and using his telekinesis to take hold of both the blue-haired girl who was now a confused blonde.... And the pussyc-*cough* Puar.- " ..... Okay!.... Good luck Tien! You too! Yamcha! Krill-"

 

" She has such nice hair...."

 

...

 

..

 

.

 

The whole battleground fell into silence..... Chiaotzu couldn't even finish his final bit.... Only sighing disappointment before he started flying, not even looking back..... 

 

The other two who were by his side could only stare in disbelief... Yamcha's now cyan-slitted eyes couldn't really believe his friend.... He was pretty down bad himself, yes.....

 

 But to someone who just tried to kill them?....

 

" Damn Krillin.....  Didn't know you were in 𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑺 type of stuff.... But, each their own I guess bud."- Slapping the monk's shoulder a few times before taking his own stance by Tien's side.

 

" ... I'm….. just gonna pretend I didn't hear anything." - Tienshinhan took the easy and best way out, just ignoring it and focusing on what was more important.

 

Finally having reality hit him, Krillin shook his head while burning in a red blush. He was quick to dash forward and lower his body into a fighting stance, his muscles buffed up and white aura burning like flames... - " Man....."

 

Only managing to squeak one word out before shutting his mouth, not believing himself.

 

.... Now, what did the girl think of the compliment?

 

We don't know.

 

Well, she is wearing a mask.... But, she did flinch once the baldy called her out.... She didn't even remember him, in the Timeline they wrecked apart the humans were killed indirectly by just some stray blasts and the corrosion of their energy, so she didn't meet that Krillin directly. 

 

" Hmm..... L-Leave the bal- *𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠*....." - Starting to speak in a very low tone her voice cracked and a few purple lightning bolts appeared around her mask before dying down, leaving 17 confused.

 

" 18? Did you say something? Didn't hear ya." - Raising an eyebrow, the twin brother was going to inspect his sister closer, that was until he raised an arm to his left.

 

*𝑷𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑴𝑴!!!* - Completely blocking a fierce clawed fist from Yamcha like it was nothing much. The Wolfman had tried to use his high speed to aid in getting closer and struck another straight punch. Both hands forming claw motions ended up in the same fate, blocked by 17 with relative ease and only shaking the Android's a bit from the impact.

 

Yamcha never regretted so much in such a short span of time. Awkwardly smiling while cold sweat ran across his face. - " Uh... Can I... Say I'm Sor-" - *𝑩𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑴!!!!*

 

*𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐌!!!*

 

Just to be slapped on the face towards the ground by 18 in a casual manner, her stance seemed way more serious than usual.- " Yeah, yeah. I'm fine, just... That was kinda out of nowhere, that's all."

 

Waving the hand she used to hit the wolfman around like it was nothing, although there was something wrong... She was a bit too stiff for some reason.... 17 didn't really get it, so shrugging he got his eyes back to their new 'friends'.

 

All who yelled loudly seeing Yamcha dig himself into a few meters of hard corroded ground, causing a small earthquake to propagate for a few seconds. 

 

His underground stay wasn't very long as his flaming cyan aura lighted up from the ground cracks and debris, exploding out and tossing chunks of the ground flying on his escape.

 

Landing close to Krillin who sighed in relief, he didn't expect their friend to just rush in without even planning something.

 

Face having a large purple scratch mark, and his nose bleeding, Yamcha massaged it feeling half of his face numb.- " Oucsh... Atsh Leasht I'm fine... They're fasht...."

 

Already having an overall knowledge of what they would be dealing with, the rogue and random attack of the wolfman at least gave them some info....

 

" Yamcha.... Let's try to win this without attempting to kill ourselves, that would be better right?....Now....." - Having a better idea of their current situation gave Tien a good start so he could devise a plan. He was thankful towards Yamcha but at the same quite apprehensive about his friend potentially dying in an idiot way.

 

"Hai'..... It helped tho'...." - Still rubbing his numb face, he shoots them a half smile, getting into somewhat of a stance once more.... Flinching at his newly acquired wounds. - ' These are gonna leave marks....'

" Well… Guess we kinda gotta fight back after almost being blown up…" - Still slightly embarrassed about his words, Krillin gets ready like his friends.

 

All of them having their respective powers ready to show what they've got. 

 

Arms ready, Tien cracks the floor under his feet.- " *Whispers* We've got to separate them somehow…. I can try to hold one while you two take on the other… Seems like the best option as of right now… Otherwise, we just have to stall for time if we can't deal with these guys…" 

 

Giving them a light on what he was thinking both friends who were carefully listening nodded in understanding.

 

Eyes not moving away from the twin duo for not even a second, carefully watching their every move that could very well be the earthling's last.

 

The cold air breezes through the destroyed grounds carrying the smoke and dust away, the continuous earthquakes and rumblings wouldn't stop for a second themselves.

 

Earth today wasn't going to have a good day.

 

*𝐔𝐔𝐔𝐔𝐒𝐇!!!* - " NOW!!" - Shouting to the top of his lungs after already having made the first move,  Yamcha had two yellow blasts of energy break out from the ground right underneath where the Androids were flying above. Shooting up at tremendous speeds at the duo.

 

These two blasts were made by Yamcha as he concentrated his Ki under his feet, creating two Spirit Balls he quickly relocated to reignite this surprise attack.

 

Happy that their friend was now using his head, the other two followed after the dashing Wolf, both readying moves of their own. Krillin stretched a hand above his head, clenching his teeth worriedly, seeing Yamcha's blasts about to make contact. 

 

Tien aimed all his eight arm's index fingers at 17. Ready to start gunning down Super Dodonpa's at the teenager like it was the old times. Eyes following carefully how the twins only watched them approach.

 

The triclop's eyes frowned seeing them move a hand to one another, so close they were almost holding hands but didn't…. At this moment all of their moves were ready to strike and Yamcha's blast was about to hit while he readied to join close combat, Krillin was ready to shoot his Disk, and Tien was going to start blasting….. 

 

" Well…. Let's see if you guys are as tough as you seem."- In a humorous tone, 17 spoke out, seeing all the other efforts about to hit him and his sister. They wouldn't leave unscathed from being hit like this, but this would change as they did have something their Doc gave them.

 

" 𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒅."  - Voice echoing through the battlefield, 18 almost sang out the word to Krillin's demise. 

 

More adequately, 'The guy's a Simp.' In the Owl's wise words.

 

The scene was changed before anyone could even blink, in between the duo's hands that were almost held together a transparent yellow sphere appeared before starting to expand at terrifying speeds. First creating a shield around the twins.

 

*𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐌!!!* - Intercepting Yamcha's blast and dissolving any smoke that was left behind once it expanded more, this time going for incoming three heroes who stopped right in their tracks seeing the unknown technique.

 

It shook them in place for a moment, the feeling in general behind more so.

 

" Gu-Guys…… That thing… I'm going nuts? Because I think it feels a little like Mumei's energy…." - Confusion rained down onto Yamcha feeling the strange sphere that was expanding, making him forget for a second they had to do something about it.

 

*𝑽𝑼𝑼𝑺𝑯𝑽𝑼𝑺𝑯….*- Starting to shoot his beams, Tien saw how his attacks did lower the technique's advance quite a bit.

 

" No…. It's just the overall feeling of danger on touch her Ki usually gives. The contrast behind is completely different from hers. But I see your point… Now, HELP US YOU MORON!!!" - Nonstop firing even more beams that exploded on impact, Tienshinhan was trying his best to keep that sphere under control, face now frowning even worse given Yamcha's antics.

 

He was also thinking it must have been pretty hard to keep such a powerful move going and he just had to tire them out…. 

 

Well…. He doesn't know about how Androids work…. So…. 𝒀𝒆𝒑.

 

Ready to start his own initiative, Krillin takes a deep breath, taking in his surroundings before holding a Super Charged Destructo Disk.

 

" Alright! Here goes! Hyper Concentrated Destructo Disk!" - Body shifting like he was throwing a baseball, he brought his whole body into one smooth and fast movement using everything he had to toss this disk.

 

*𝙐𝙐𝙐𝙐𝙐𝙎𝙃!!* - Spinning faster and faster on blastoff. The one who tossed it flips one time given the momentum behind his body and his own clumsiness, chuckling shortly after. - " Man, I suck at naming moves…" - Soon getting to watching his attack carefully to see how well it would do.

 

Closing in at blinding speeds, the spinning disk of death enters the curtain of smoke Tien had created while blasting nonstop that was even bigger now given Yamcha started to fire Ki blasts to try and aid in somehow. They couldn't really get close after all.

 

*𝑪𝑳𝑬𝑬𝑵𝑲!!!*- As soon as the Disk hits the expanding sphere a loud bang similar to metal hitting metal rings out all around their surroundings, both twins grimacing slightly under their masks feeling their corrosive sphere just hit something strangely tough.

 

Taking a closer look inside the cloud of smoke, we see the Ki Disk spinning like a beyblade and going full throttle against the corrosive sphere, its power being high enough to cease its advances and chip bits away from the sphere.

 

 It could turn impermeable when in contact with physical things, but it acted as a barrier to energy-based things.

 

Raging in while the corrosion slowly worked on the Disk.

 

Although the one who fired, Krillin wasn't quite done yet. Now having already shot the strongest one he cocked one arm up once more, charging a normal Destructo Disk and then firing, doing the same with his other hands and then continuing in repetition. Raining down Disks while shouting to the top of his lungs aiming at the location the charged one shot before was.

One after another he didn't stop, all of them hitting the same spot the other two were also tirelessly aiming their own blasts at.

 

" " " 𝐇𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐇!!!!!" "" - In a last synchronized blast they all discharged with everything they got, attacks raining down each with their own unique shines.

 

*𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐌𝐌!!!!*

 

All hitting together to make contact on the yellow sphere and give Krillin's strongest Destructo Disk a last push so it could drill its way in. Shooting inside the twins' barrier to both their surprise.

 

Acting fast, seeing the spinning disk that was corroding as it closed in them 17 pushes 18 to the opposite side as he jumps back, dodging the attack Disk that continues for another few feet, and even while almost depleted of its energy, it makes a sharp turn towards 17.

 

" Oh, God damni-" -  * 𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐍𝐆!!!*

 

The disk was about to split the Android in half until a green gleam in a circle format shone to life briefly around the teenager before turning into a full-on green energy barrier, stopping the Disk in its last attempt and causing it finally lost all energy and give off to the sphera of corrosion that was already wearing off now that born siblings separated.

 

" Close one….. Close one baldy…." - Moving his head towards the one he was complementing, he saw Krillin letting out small breaths while having his whole arm aimed at his own face. Probably because he tried to turn the Destructo Disk in the last opening there.

 

" Guys….. Game's open now…." - Proudly smiling, leaving 17 a bit confused as he looked around not seeing the other two.

 

His eyes moved towards his right and seeing triclops there, doing a weird pose while closing his eyes and aiming all arms at his face. Smirking while waving a hand around jokingly- " Sup eight arms! I'm too beautiful for y- "

 

" SOLAR FLARE!!!!" - Smugness that was short lived by the teenager, his eyes suddenly started to burn and the whiteness of a flashbang took over his vision.

 

" MY EYES!!!! I CAN'T SEE SHI-" -*𝑩𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑴𝑴𝑴!!!!*

 

Hitting 17's face, jaw, chest, and abdomen all at the same time with his right arms using cross punches, Tien sends the screaming teenager holding his eyes and almost crying a few good kilometers away. Quickly looking back at Yamcha who was already moving to his own part before blitzing after the twin brother.

 

As for what the said Wolf was doing? Well, he took the window given by the solar flare to try his best to sneak in at 18, who had raised both arms just in time lucky to not be so close like her brother giving her enough time to do so.

 

Hearing her brother screaming she tried to move although to no avail given the strong light, her sensors would burn up if she tried looking directly at for too long.

 

Now no longer seeing the blinding bright light she tried to open her eyes, already having to move out of the way of a fist-like claw enveloped in blue flaming energy. Not stopping she had to dodge a few more as the long-haired man didn't stop for a second! It wasn't like she couldn't take the blows.

 

More so that her senses weren't fully back, and not knowing the overall situation and if it was okay to take the hits after hearing her brother screaming was still something to worry about in her eyes.

 

Dodging one last attack from Yamcha as he swung his palm in claw motion to try and scar her face, just for her to twirl around right into his right side already coming to bring a gift in the form of a left side kick to his ribs. 

 

*𝐁𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐌!!!* - " UGH!!! Cl-Close one!!!"

 

Not connecting to the girl's discontent given he raised his right arm to block just in time, blocking using the back of it and feeling as if his skin was burning on contact when the Android's leg lit up in a small yellow aura, forcing him to dash back to let a few breaths on his numb arm like it was burning.

 

Pushing hair behind her ears and crossing both arms, 18 looked towards where her brother was before letting out a tired sigh.- " Let's play around, he said… It would be fun, he said…. Now we might end up late…. Tsk…"

 

Getting ready to rush in so she could go find that stupid brother of hers, she slumped down in a kneeling motion. Dodging a double ax punch from the bald midget who sneaked up behind her, trying to make her experience what Yamcha did a few moments before they separated the twins.

 

Eyes behind the mask squeezed in a strange manner leaving the bald monk to almost quack feeling her hands aimed towards his chest concentrating on two yellow blasts that weren't giving the best of vibes.

 

" Crappy Basket- *𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐌𝐌!!!!*

 

Two yellow blurs quickly explode in contact with Krillin's chest, a small explosion of smoke shoots out as two large holes are torn into her orange Gi. Two freshly created wounds start to drip blood while he is trashed back a few meters, until finally regaining back his breath.

 

Coughing a few times in his right fist he quickly notices blood spill out in between each of his breaths, closing the same hand the bloodied Krillin took a long breath before taking his stance once more.

 

"Yamcha! Synchronized!"- Shouting loudly mid-dash the short earthling approached the blonde Android girl who was already standing by this point, now having each of her arms ready by the hips.

 

" Don't even need to say!!!! Coming!!!" - Eyes glowing cyan the Wolf took his departure after confirming his arm was okay.

 

Now both were closing in from each of 18's sides, one in each of her opposites giving the girl an even harder positioning in this dispute.

 

Clicking her tongue she stretched both arms to their respective sides already charging up a blast and swiftly firing dozens in a few moments. Making their way across the tsunami of attacks both were able to dodge most of them, although not without injuries.

 

Their clothes were torn everywhere from the close dodge the dangerous corrosive blasts had. All these blasts that missed who couldn't fulfill their purpose soon found the ground on the horizon, ending up creating large city-sized domes of destruction everywhere they hit.

 

Adding in even further into the Earthquakes around the planet. 

 

Now that all three were close they all felt like that moment lasted forever, the instant all of them met face to face. 

 

Clenching his teeth, Yamcha dragged his left arm in a clawed motion to try an uppercut, missing by a lot given the girl's immense speed to sidestep(sidefly?) out of the way already wanting to punch the man's head off using a straight fist.

 

She was left no time to enact her plan when Krillin kicked right behind her knees, losing balance in a yelp she bent back for a second, enough for the two friends to nod in synch and go in with everything.

 

Repositioning himself Yamcha was going to strike his right elbow down the Android's collarbone knowing fully well the girl would dodge it, and so she tried rolling out of the way midair. Coming to a complete stop receiving a front kick to her midsection abdomen courtesy of a very frustrated Krillin.

 

The strength difference was clear, but technique and strategy were also something they clearly had in different…. While one attack from her could completely destroy them, the boys only had to work around that and sustain as little damage as possible while also hitting in sync to try and overwhelm their opponent.

 

Now she was just where they wanted, not being able to move from where she was, giving Yamcha the perfect target.

 

" EAT THIS!!!!! HAA!!!" 

 

*𝐏𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐌!!!* - Elbow dropping in a smooth manner he felt the Android's tough body be sent skyrocketing down towards the ground as he this time successfully connected his attack to her collarbone.

 

In a line of motion, she was shot from down the skies, raining down the giant crater she and 17 created. Raising quite a deal of dust upon impact.

 

" We've gotta keep going…*Huff*... I can feel it… We can do this! We don't need the others! Right Krillin?!....... Krillin?" - Excitedly swinging his arms in a victory dance the wolfman was truly happy about their first real attack.

 

His wide smile was swapped for a look of confusion watching his friend breathe heavily looking at the cloud of dust the blonde created.

 

" Yamcha…. We've been using everything… These Ultimate states of our techniques….. Burning our energy through and through…. But look at that…." - Brows frowning having noticed it, he points at the curtain of smoke that is soon forced open by a shockwave.

 

Standing there inside a crater full of ground debris surrounding her was 18, fixing her hair and staring directly in their direction, with minimally any scratches at all besides the ones around her clothes and messy hair…..

 

 Yes, they could overwhelm power using technique….

 

 But how far could they really go before they started losing steam?

 

" Not…. Even a cut?.... What the hell….." - Clenching his teeth tightly, Yamcha's eyes twitched in disbelief.

 

Both entering their respective stances watched the girl together, sweat running down their faces knowing this might be so good for them in the long term of things.

 

As for the blonde one in the ground? Well…. She was kinda…. Just a bit….Pissed….

 

" My clothes…… You two are so screwed….." - Knuckles shaking behind her and Mask beeping a few times liberating a few purple lightning bolts around the girl before coming to a cease.

 

Her mask eyes glowing red was all the answer the other two needed to know the girl wouldn't be as easy to team up against as they it would be thought….

 

Clenching their fists while holding their stances, Yamcha and Krillin wondered if Tienshinhan was at least having a better time than them…

*𝐏𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐌!!!* - " HUUAGH-"

 

*𝐂𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐇- 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐎𝐌!!!!*

 

A few kilometers from where Yamcha and Krillin were having their own first experience of how it feels to fight an untiring machine. Tien while screaming and spitting blood just fell like a bullet head-first on the hard floor of a rocky mountain, almost bringing the whole thing down given the huge impact his body made on the collision.

 

Dust raising in a similar way to a nuke was all that could be seen from the one above. Having his long black hair and orange scarf floating in the wind the teenager Android clapped both hands like he was cleaning them.

 

" First of all. It's rude to blind someone. Second…. What did you hope to accomplish? Like dude…. Really? Separating us isn't gonna make either weaker. Kinda stupid not gonna lie."- Tapping his mask wondering at the train of thought behind the earthling's actions.

 

From the mountain that was falling apart in itself a large sound of hundreds of rocks breaking apart roared through the surroundings, smoke and dust still hiding everything inside the crater the triclops was in to the Android's discontent.

 

Annoyed, he moved his hand that was tapping his mask towards the mountain, already charging up a very dreadful yellow blast, he was aiming to just blow everything in the radius of the mountain and some rivers that were close by to nothingness.

 

Smirking already and shooting it he was surprised by a giant stone bolder that was sent flying his way intercepting his blast halfway through its main target and creating a huge yellow sphere of doom mid-air, not really accomplishing anything besides shooting strong winds everywhere.

 

Surprised, face fading away as his exploded blast dissipated, he glanced at the now half-destroyed mountain that bore a crater half its size. In the middle of it, there was a large chunk of ground missing and a man who had eight arms panting as he now had to deal with some wounds across his body.

 

" *Huff!*.... I'm not done yet. *grins*, Better not think I'm going down after just some punches kid." 

 

All arms clenching tightly in fists he breathed deeply, his slight aura around his body getting denser than before as he augmented the Ki usage to thicken even more his defenses. Veins appearing around his body and skin now tougher than anything on earth, Tien kneeled down before shooting up and leveling the crater even further.

 

*𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐌!!* - Sound barrier breaking the triclops growled closing in on the bored-looking teenager. 17 having been called a 'kid' wasn't too keen to it.

 

Dodging the rushing man as he went through where the Android was an instant before. 17 just flew a little to his left to accomplish the perfect dodge, watching the triclops pass by while being right onto his side.

 

Humming and differing a right uppercut to Tien's stomach while having a small smile.

 

*𝑩𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑴!!!* - " Don't speak your mouth out old man, your denture is going to fall off- Huh?" - Stopping his sentence at the end of it he noticed something wasn't quite right. Yes, he did connect the punch…. But… Where was the groaning in pain and body trashing away part?......

 

Looking at where he had hit the triclops his eyes widened, his fist did hit it…. Hell, it was a clean hit.

 

But his arm was now being held by four hands and where he had struck there were small waves of white energy going through Tien's both similar to when someone strikes the Android's own Energy Barrier.

 

" What the- *𝐏𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐌!!!*" - Not letting his chance go, Tienshinhan started to use his free arms to overwhelm the teen with a fury of punches, it didn't matter which type or where he would hit. It was already a plus in his book, but he did prioritize the Android's face and Mask… 

 

There was something pesky about it and he knew.

 

Finalizing his assault after feeling the teen starting to get his arm the triclops was holding away using an unbelievable strength. Frowning and screaming in one last attack he used his four available fists to altogether punch the Android's face while letting go of his arm.

 

" 𝑯𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑯!!!" - *𝑩𝑨𝑴𝑴!!!*

 

Flipping back a few times because of the momentum, 17 was fast to recover after flying back a few hundred feet. Getting back his stance now having his clothes way more torn apart than before.

 

Looking down strangely quiet while inspecting his clothing, then his hands, closing and opening both of them as if inspecting things.

 

Rapidly nodding he glanced back to Tien who was somewhat worn out, he was really putting his everything in the barrage this time…. It was like the adrenaline in his body had given one extra push to try and put one in the Android.

 

Although seeing that the teen was gone and only his clothing was damaged wasn't the best of news.

 

Both staying in silence. A few seconds running by that felt like hours in both fighters' eyes.

 

The first to make a move was 17, alerting Tien immediately as he raised all fists into a blocking stance and raised his shield technique to its peak for caution.

 

Through, to his confusion 17 just pointed his right index toward the triclops. - " I like your style old man. Imma give you a run for your money seeing you did get my swag all messed up, so a point for that."

 

Changing the pointing finger to a thumbs up, leaving both in another awkward silence…

 

*𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤!* - Silence that was broken by a small crack made by the right upper edge of 17's Mask, small purple lightning bolts raging around it for an instant before disappearing.

 

A drop of sweat ran down Tien's bald head as he blinked a few times seeing 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓, was all the damage he did to the damn thing.

 

" Thanks?..... I guess?....." - Using one of his arms he scratched the side of his head before getting it back to its original stance seeing the teen get into a stance of his own.

 

" Now I can kick your ass without worrying about a lame fight." - " Wait wha-" - Saying that 17 flashed inside Tien's vision already coming with an overhead left punch that was blocked by four arms in a double 'x' formation.

 

*𝑷𝑨𝑴𝑴𝑴!!*- Shockwaves rocketing around them in high-speed winds they struggled in place. Tien clenched his teeth feeling how much the 'kid' he was fighting was holding back given his shield around his arms started to drain way more energy to sustain itself.

 

Groaning, he tried to get out of this position by using another flurry of punches, all of which blocked the teen's free hand.  The situation not looking good so he thought about using his Solar Flare once more. 

 

" Things are gonna get messy. 𝙉𝙤𝙩 𝙢𝙪𝙘𝙝 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝." 

 

*𝑩𝑨𝑴𝑴𝑴!!!* - His decision was cut short by 17's free fist digging right into Tien's face without him even having the chance to block anything.

 

" UGYHAAA!!?!?!" - Blood shot out of his mouth and nose onto the teen's fist he was shot back spinning like an unwanted toy.

 

17 just watched the triclops while chuckling at how perfectly he was spinning.

 

" *Looks at the horizon* Hmm…Sis seems to be doing fine. *cracks knuckles*... Now, Let's have some deserved fun, shall we."
