Part 13, Chapter 6: The Red Twins' Fusion

You ready? The secret to Fusion is in the pose!

Pose...?

L-Look...I understand that heroes like you think an awesome pose is essential, but we don't got time for that!

That's not what I'm talking about! If your pose isn't perfect, the Fusion will fail!!

You're talkin' about that little dance that Goten and Trunks did?

Exactly! I'm guessing that means you saw it yourself. That'll save us some time then!

Do you remember their movements at all?

Ahh...not exactly...! How was I supposed to know that dance was so important?

Tch... I guess I can't blame you there.

Right then! I'm going to demonstrate it for you right now! You need to remember these moves preci...

Bueeeh?!

Doaaaah?!

Wha?! P-Piccolo?!

So...using the Majin as bait to have a little strategy meeting, are we? Fufufu...

Grr...!!

How foolish... Did you really think we could be stopped by the likes of a simple-minded Majin?!

H-Hyeeeh?!

Your pointless struggle ends now. It's time we brought things to a close!

Daah!!

Must you continue this pointless rebellion? Know when to yield, you cretins!

You should learn when to quit!!

Guh...!!

Geh...?!

This ends now!!

Gah?! Aaaah!!

Guaaah!!

...! Gu...ugh...!!

*pant* *pant*

Well, well... Still standing, I see.

You should understand well enough. The only way this ends is with you submitting to our might.

D-Dammit...!

(I knew it... We're no match for them...! If things continue at this rate...!)

Haah!!

Hmm...?

G-Gohan?! And Trunks?!

Sorry we're late!

We've taken down most of the enemies! Mai and Nail should be able to handle the rest...!

We'll hold these two back for as long as we can, but you guys have to fuse! Quick!

How did they know we were trying to attempt Fusion...?

I...I can't let them take on Zamasu and Black alone! We need to go help them...!

Shallot, don't!!

Piccolo?!

I already explained everything to them. They're fighting because I asked them to.

W-Wait just a minute! That's crazy...!!

I'm well aware!! But you should know better than anyone that we don't have any other options!!

Grr...!

It's now or never! Come over here so I can teach you the rest!!

Right...got it!

You too, Hercule! Come with us!!

Hyee?! Why is it always me?!

So you'd be willing to die a pointless death just for those twins...? I guess fools stick together after all!

I see your lack of self-preservation is as prominent as ever, Trunks. No matter what the era...

Huh?! You know who I am? Just who exactly are you?!

Hmph... I don't think that information will be of much use to someone bound for the afterlife, do you?

What'd you say?!

Stay calm, Trunks! This guy that looks like my dad is supposedly super strong. Don't let him get to you!

Hmm... So, you're Goku's son... You certainly look similar, but you seem to have a better head on your shoulders than your father.

You two would make a fine dessert... Such a shame I don't have the time to savor you to the fullest...

Dessert?! Where?!

...?! You wretched beast! How are you still...?!

Hmph...! There no dessert!!

First you get in Buu's way! And now you lie to Buu?!

Buu hate you! Buu beat you up now!!

I would've never thought that I'd be fighting alongside Majin Buu...

He's an ally now. At least that's what Mr. Piccolo says...

What's important is that we know how powerful he really is! Regardless of the circumstances, I'm glad he's on our side!

Is there no end to these insects...?

Let's exterminate them once and for all!

Ahh...?!

Are...you serious...?!

Gishaah!!

Kuuu...!!

Geee! Shaaah!!

...

W-Wow! That monster can't even get a hit in! How is he dodging so fast?!

B-But all Hit's doing is dodging... He isn't attacking at all!

At this rate, he'll just tire himself out...

Ge...gege...!

Hmph...

(So this is Black Ki...? Such power...)

Gwoooh!!

Hah!!

Gugyaah?!

Uh...uuhh...!!

Shaaah!!

That move...?!

H-Hit!! Look out!!

Baaaaah!!!

Hiiit?!

...shishi...

Shishishi...!!! Hyaahahaha!!!

I guess you don't even need a brain to laugh like an idiot...

...?!

I can see through your every move...!

Haah!!

Gah...?! ...Aagh...?!

You may have incredible power...

But I'm not about to let myself lose to a rampaging idiot.

W-Wow!! He beat him in an instant!!

I couldn't even see the attack!! Hey, Hit! How'd you do that?! C'mon, tell us!!

It's too early to be celebrating...

Our work isn't done yet. We're going back to the lookout!

O-Okay...you ready? I'm...uhh...going to give you a demonstration...

Hey, Hercule! Copy my moves exactly, but mirrored...!

What?! I have to do it too?!

This pose requires two people!! Now hurry up!!

Fu!!

Uhh...fuu...?

Alright, you're doing good! And then we move like this...

sion!!

Hah!!

And that's how it's done...!

...

Oh, yeah! That's the same dance they did! I remember it now!!

(That was so embarrassing...!! How could he make a World Champion like me do something so uncool?!)

Now, there's no time to waste! Start practicing, you two!!

Got it!!

W-Wait...! Are those...movements...really the only way to do this...?

What's wrong? It's way easier than I thought it'd be. We can totally do this!

That's not what I'm talking about!! It's just...are we really going to do something that embarrassing...?!

Quit your complaining! Do you think I want to be standing here doing this pose? Because I don't!

Anyway...enough talk! Gohan and Trunks can only buy us so much time, so get to practicing!!

If we don't hurry up, they'll be...!!

Haah!!

Buuu!!

Hmph... A feeble-minded Majin and a Trunks who's still wet behind the ears... You're but trivial opponents at best...

The same goes for you, son of Goku... I sense that you hold great power within, but you're a mortal all the same. You don't stand a chance against a god.

Dammit!!

Say what you want! This battle isn't over!!

We can still fight!!

Hah!!

Gyaaaah?!

Die!!

Gah...?!

Guh...!!

Hmph... These insignificant beings proved to be more trouble than they're worth!!

Now then...

Dammit...!! Gohan and Trunks are down! And we still need more time!!

No! Their efforts won't go to waste!

We've got the gist of that Fusion pose...! All that's left is to try it out for real!

No...you can't...!! If you try it without practicing first, it could fail spectacularly...

It's our only choice right now!! Time to go all in...!!

Hmm...? All in on what, I wonder...?

...?!

Guah?!

Geh?!

Shallot?! Giblet?!

Argh...!!

Damn! They're back...!!

These dumb clones...!!

Now's not the time to be getting in our way!!

Ahh...?! Hyeeeeeh...?!

I don't know what they were scheming, but it matters not... Their grand plan has failed...

But you need not despair! After all, your fates were sealed from the very beginning... Kukuku!

Now, perhaps I'll dispose of this trash before securing those Saiyan twins...!

Ohnononono!

Damn it all...!

You stop now!!

Nuh...?!

Buuu... Buuu...! Stop being mean to Buu's servants!

...! B-Buu!

Hercule and Piccolo run!! Buu protect servants!!

...?!

Buu...

Hmph...! Never thought I'd see the day where you'd say that...

Uwroooah!!

Oh...?

Sorry, but Hercule's the only one who's going to be running! I'll be fighting with you, Buu!

Huh?!

It's my fault that you got involved in all this. The least I can do is buy you enough time to escape!!

Huh...?! But...P-Piccolo...?! I...uhh...!!

It's fine!! Now get away from here already!!

O-Okaaay!!!

Why Piccolo not run? They really strong!

Hmph... You want to know why...? I suppose I don't want to let Hercule die either...

And well...I'm meant to be your servant, aren't I? At least let me help out a bit!

Hmm...?

Okay! That sounds fun! Let's fight then!!

Right! Let's show them what we've got!!

Hmph... What a pointless display of heroism...

Come at us!! You'll find we won't die so easily!!

Uwrooooh!!

Daaah!!

A suicidal assault...? How primitive...

...?!

Guhaaah?!

Ugeeeeeh?!

I know how desperate you both are, so excuse us for ending things sooner than you'd like... Hahaha!

P-Piccolo?! Buu...?!

How could they...?!

How pointless...! All to let a meager insect scurry away...

Masenkooo!!

...?!

*pant* *pant*

Tch...! You again! You're as persistent now as you were back in our time...!

I don't even know who you are...

But when it comes to persistence, I learned from the best!

Did you really think...that I'm the only one who can move...?

...? What are you prattling on abo?

Ka...me...!

...?! That voice...?!

Ha...me...!!

Gohan...?!

(This is the strongest Kamehameha that I can muster...! Who knows if it'll even work...but...!!)

(If I give up now, what will happen to Shallot and the others...? And...)

We'll be going our separate ways, so I just wanted to tell you guys to do your best out there!!

No matter what era you're from, you're still my sons! And I know you'll do great!!

(How could I face Dad if I didn't give it my all, right here, right now?!)

Hmm... Aiming for one final, all-out attack I see...

Hmph...! A truly senseless act... But do give it your best shot... Hahahah!

Haaaah!!!

*pant* *pant*

...

Ga...hah...?! H-How could a mortal... wield this much power...?!

Tch...

Haha...! That attack wasn't half bad! It might even leave a bruise!

No...way...?!

D-Damn...!!

Y-You insolent beings!! Do you know what you've done?!

You've dared to strike a god!!

Gyah...?!

Guhaah?!

*pant* *pant* Such hubris from lowly mortals...

(Ah...ahhh...! I can't believe it...!)

(They're just kids...! How could those bastards do that?!)

A-And...!

Hercule and Piccolo run!! Buu protect servants!!

It's my fault that you got involved in all this. The least I can do is buy you enough time to escape!!

P-Piccolo...and Buu...!!

...

Grr...!!

Daah!!

Gah...?!

*pant* *pant* If...If we can keep this up...!! We might just find an opening...!!

D-Dammit...! If we could just do Fusion...then maybe we could fight back!!

I crushed every single one of them, just like the ants they are... ...and yet, they dare to keep fighting...

To even muster the rage I feel would be a wasted effort. This is but one of the multitude of problems with mortals.

Pay them no mind... These are just the vain struggles of a couple of half-dead insects. And it's time for their requiem!

Wait right there!!

...!

...

What is it, mortal...? Do you know what happens when you stand in the way of a god?

Knock it off! Right now! You...!

Stupid little crap-bastards!! You pompous green and black piles of dung!!

Wha?! What?!

How vulgar...!

You had managed to run away with your life, so what brings you back here? Have you finally lost your mind?

I...I didn't run or nothin'!! My stomach just hurt! That's all! But now the real fight can start!!

W-World Champion Hercule is gonna give you what for!!

Hmph... You're arrogant for a weakling... You clearly don't understand who you're up against...

Y-You're the ones who don't understand who you're up against!!

Oh, is that so...?

I'm the fightin' World Champion, hero to the people...a-and an ally to all of humanity!!

T-That's why...! I'm gonna stop you...! F-For those kids... 'Cause...!

I'm not about to stand idly by while some villains playing god torture my friends!!

"Villains playing god"...? Kukuku...! It would seem that this mortal denies our true nature...

You vermin...! To doubt our divinity you must be wishing for a premature death indeed...!

Hyee...?! N-No...! I don't want to die... It's...uhh...!!

You impudent oaf!!

Ugh?! Waaaaah?!

...?! He's gone...?!

You did well. For someone of your abilities...

What's going on?! Hit?!

...

W-What...?! I'm alive?!

Are you ready yet?

Ready? Just what are you talking abo?

Yeah! I'm ready to fire!!

Well done, Hercule! You really are the World Champion!

...?!

Without the precious few seconds you gave us, I wouldn't have been able to charge up enough Ki!

You'd better prepare yourselves!! If there's one thing I can guarantee, it's that this move packs a punch!!

Special Beam Cannon!!

Kuh...?!

It...missed...?

Ha...hahaha...! Where did you think you were aiming?

Not for you, that's for sure!

What...?!

Shallot!! Get out the way!!

...?!

The fakes...they're...?!

Fusion!! Do it now!!

Piccolo...you...!!

Come on, Shallot! We've only got one shot at this!!

Right! This is it! And I'm not about to waste it!! Let's go!!!

...

W-What is this?!

Hmph... What's the matter? Where's that smug look that you love so much...?

Grr...!

(This Ki... It's incredible...)

Don't feel like laughing anymore? I guess you've already sensed how powerful I've become then...

Are you...Shallot? Giblet? No! It is neither, isn't it?

J-Just who are you?!

I'm not Shallot or Giblet.

I'm the Fusion between Saiyan twins who possess the power of gods...

Shallet!!

Sh...Shallet...?

Is this...Fusion...?! But how?! It should be impossible without the Potara!!

That's not what you two should be worrying about right now...

What...?

I'd be more concerned about how you're gonna get out of this alive...

You're up against me after all!!

...!!

You think a Fusion of mere mortals could stand against us?

Know your place!!

You wanna fight then? Fine by me!!

But not here...

Let's have a change of scenery!!

Wh?!

Uurgh?!

W-What happened?! Where the heck did they go?!

I didn't see a thing! Just how far away are they?!

Not bad...

(This level of power is beyond anything I could've imagined!!)

(More than that, to think they could pull off a perfect Fusion dance at the last minute...!)

Hmph... Hahaha! Not bad at all...

*pant* *pant* C'mon, Hit! You could've slowed down and let us catch up at least!!

Okay then! Where are those other super strong bad guys at?!

Sorry to disappoint you, but it would appear that we are no longer needed.

Gu...ugh...!!

T-This power...?!

Alright! I should be able to really let loose here!

Actually, maybe we're too far... I guess I don't know my own strength.

Just so you know, I might go a little overboard...but I don't wanna hear complaints afterward, okay?

I hope you're ready for this!

...! Ready...?

...

Ready, he says... Fufufu...!

...?

Who do you think you're speaking to? That we would steel ourselves and get "ready" like a puerile mortal!!

Kukukukuku...! Honestly...!!

Your arrogance truly knows no bounds!!

...

How much of my wrath must you incur before you are satisfied?!

This power born from my boundless fury will make you rue this day!!!

I'll tear you apart, mortal!!

Heh... I'd like to see you try...

You don't get it! You can't defeat me!

Not in a million years!!

Wrooahh!!

Is that all you got? It's like you were barely moving!

H-How...?! With my incomparable power...?!

Your "boundless fury" or whatever isn't that big a deal!

Y-You...!!

I've had enough...!!

Of your impudence!!

Ha...hahaha! You took the full brunt of that attack! Now do you see what happens to those who dare mock a god...?

Hmph... There's no need to dodge an attack from someone like you...

Imp?!

Haah!!

Guaah!!

Gugyah?!

Grr...! Y-You insolent...!!

You would dare strike against us...?! We are almighty gods!

And a god could never be at the mercy of a mortal!!

You really are naive...

...?!

You think just because you're a god you can't lose? I don't know what gave you that idea, but don't kid yourself...

This mortal has already surpassed a god. You got a problem with that?

Grr...!!!

I'm tired of hearing about your inferiority complex...

Spare me your little speech and let's fight already!!
