Chapter 34: Cell Games Part 3
"Okay...I didn't know you could heal with the Spirit Bomb technique. I admit; that was pretty cool," Vegeta said as he raised his knee to kick Goku in the side.
Goku grinned as he lowered his elbow to block Vegeta's knee, "Yeah, I've learned a lot on planet Metamor."
Vegeta seeing the move ahead of time changed tactics. He stomped his kicking leg towards the ground, targeting Goku's foot while saying, "However, you can't heal as often as I can. You wouldn't want to start killing all the plants and animals around you."
"I know that, but here there is an ever-expanding space that has no limit to plant life around us." Goku stepped his foot back and punched out for Vegeta's face simultaneously.
Vegeta tilted his head to the side and felt Goku's fist past by his cheek as he dodged, raising his fist into an uppercut.
Goku barely moved as he avoided the attack.
"No more explanations," Goku said as the two began to focus on their fight.
Everytime they struck out, each of their attacks missed their targets by a narrow margin every time.
If Whis were here to witness this dance-like form of combat, he would see the two moving very close to the level of Ultra Instinct.
Goku and Vegeta continued to trade blows for almost a full day. By the end of their fight, they were both exhausted and completely tapped out of energy.
They stood across from one another, blood and sweat dripping onto the ground. The two were covered in wounds and panting while they struggled to continue to their fight.
The battle-worn Sayians then looked at one another before they both said, "You look exhausted; maybe you should just give up."
Vegeta and Goku laughed.
Vegeta was out of Mana, and Goku couldn't so much as raise his hands to collect the energy needed to heal himself.
"Another draw then," Vegeta said as they both collapsed.
After chowing down on a Sensu Bean, the two jumped back up and enjoyed the feeling of their increased strength.
"I love Zenkai Boosts," Vegeta laughed.
"Always fun to get stronger from a good fight," Goku said as he fell on his back.
Later on, they then called in Gohan, Trunks, Raunch, and Goten to continue their training as well, and for the next 3 Years inside the Training Grounds, they did just that.
Vegeta and Goku trained with one another and their kids for the entire duration.
Whis agreed to train everybody, just as long as they supplied him with delectable edibles.
With the angel's aid, all the Z Fighters grew stronger by leaps and bounds in record time.
Vegeta senior and his wife also joined in for the training.
Vegeta even managed to pull Bulma into a session every once and a while, but she didn't train as much as the others, and preferred to work on new technological advancements.
Nappa had chosen to continue his training, but, as a graduation commander for the upcoming Saiyan Warriors. The bald Saiyan had very little time to train because he was so busy leading new adults Battle-Ready Saiyans on their first mission with the Space Patrol.
Lapis and Lazuli were allowed to return to Planet Earth, but they insisted on staying with the Z-Fighters and training with Krillin.
After leaving, Goku smiled as he sensed Cero's new strength on Earth, "Awesome! He got a lot stronger in just the two years we gave him."
"Well, he did get a lot stronger, but so did we," Vegeta said as he pulled out his Dragon-Scouter and checked all of the highest power levels on his planet.
Goku and Vegeta and managed to raise their Power-Level from 3 Quadrillion to 25 Quadrillion, more proof that Whis' training being extremely effective.
The remaining fighters' levels were...
Gohan, 25 Quadrillion.
Goten, 1 Quadrillion.
Trunks, 1 Quadrillion.
Future Trunks, 24.5 Quadrillion.
Raunch, 1 Quadrillion.
Launch, 1 Quadrillion.
Krillin, 15 Quadrillion.
Tein, 14.9 Quadrillion.
Piccolo, 27, Quadrillion.
Bardock, 25 Quadrillion.
Gine, 10 Quadrillion.
Chichi, 18 Quadrillion.
Radditz, 22 Quadrillion.
Bulma, 8.2 Quadrillion.
Bulla, 5 Million.
Vegeta Senior, 24 Quadrillion.
Gardnia, 24, Quadrillion.
Lapis, 150 Quadrillion.
Lazuli, 150 Quadrillion.
Nappa, 600 Trillion.
Everyone got ready to go, they all gathered up ready for Vegeta to teleport them when Goten, Raunch, and Trunks jumped up and shouted, "We are gonna kick Cero's butt!"
Gohan shook his head and said, "You three are fighting first since you're the youngest."
"Sorry Gohan, you won't get a chance to fight! I'm going to beat Cero into the ground!" Goten yelled with his fist up.
"You're only lucky cause you won at Rock, Paper, Scissors!" Trunks shouted while pouting.
"Sore loser much, eh, Trunks?" Raunch followed up.
Everyone laughed at the two kids arguing about who gets to fight first.
Bulma moved over towards Vegeta and elbowed his side before she said, "Those kids 'really' take after their fathers."
Vegeta chuckled and looked at the three 5 and a half-year-old kids, "They are much stronger than I at their current age. As long as they don't stop training, the day may come when they finally surpass us."
Goku grinned as he said, "Won't that be the best? Not only will we be proud, but we can also challenge them too!"
Vegeta shook his head and said, "Come on, fighting maniac. We have a tournament to win."
Vegeta then teleported everyone to Mars while using his Zoom Spell to transport Cero next to him.
Once he arrived, Vegeta stood in front of a large open area, next to Cero.
After getting introductions out of the way, Vegeta gathered the party around him and shouted, "Listen up, here are the rules for the Cell Games. Rule one, the whole planet is the battlefield; leaving the atmosphere is considered to be going out of bounds. Rule two, the match will continue until one or the other, admits defeat, gets knocked out, and lastly, if either contestant is incapacitated by maiming, or dismemberment, the offender of such a case will be disqualified. Rule three is simple, no killing."
Everyone nodded their heads, "Any questions?" Vegeta asked as he looked around.
Cero stood up, "Who's fighting first?"
Vegeta turned to Goten, "You're up kid."
"You can do it, son!" Goku shouted.
"Try your hardest." Chi-Chi watched with worry in her eyes.
"Kick his ass, Cuz!" Raunch joined the Son family cheering squad.
Gine and Blond-Launch slapped the back of Raunch's head, "If I ever hear that filth come out of your mouth again, I will ground you for life."
"No more extra food when you visit granny anymore either," Gine followed up.
Bardock rolled his eyes and shouted, "Kick his ass, Goten!"
He then looked at the angry mothers and said, "What? They're just words, get over it."
Gine pulled out a frying pan while Launch pulled her gun out from her holster. They started attacking Bardock, hitting him and shooting at him.
The Saiyan stood there with a bland look on his face and shook his head as their attacks did nothing other than annoy him.
"You're my nephew and of a great Saiyan lineage! You can win this fight!" Raditz shouted, making sure to watch his language.
Goku then looked to Cero before saying, "Break any of the rules, and I'll kill you!"
Vegeta laughed as he actually saw Cero sweat a bit, but was more laughing at Goku's attitude towards the Android.
"Maybe my some of my attitude rubbed off on him when we fused," Vegeta thought as they found a nice flat area to fight on.
It was a large and open grass field that spanned hundreds of miles before being surrounded by any foresty.
Goten stepped up to fight and held his hands out in the traditional Kame stance.
Cero showed interest. He knew he was far stronger, but he lacked the experience to really fight.
The Android may have the techniques and cells of all the greatest warriors alive and dead, but, he still hasn't had a proper fight to test them.
Cero mimicked Goten and stood in the same stance before Vegeta shouted, "Begin!"
Two shot towards each other, Goten transformed into a Mastered Super Saiyan and went from 1 Quadrillion to 75 Quadrillion.
Cero easily blocked every one of Goten's attacks. However, he was thankful for every strike the boy attempted. He could see how Goten used his martial arts and was adapting rapidly to real combat.
Goten suddenly transformed into a Super Saiyan 2, his power reached 150 Quadrillion.
Cero smiled as he watched the boy speed up, but even then, it was no use. Goten grunted seeing that this wasn't getting him anywhere, powered up to Super Saiyan 3.
His power level just using basic Ki, allowed him to reach 1 Quintillion.
Goten's attacks were feirce. His arms turned into blurs and his legs became as fast as lightning bolts. Countless punches and kicks used in a very trained format allowed him to push the heavily repressed Cero a bit.
Goten transformed into a Super Saiyan 4 mid-swing. The rapid change in power caught the Android off guard, allowing Goten to land a solid punch against his foe.
Cero skid across the ground as it revealed Gohan hat the very bottom of Low Mortal Tier.
"Hmm...okay, let's go then," Cero said as he rushed forwards and started attacking back.
After a few rapid exchanges, Cero started to show some concern.
He slightly increased his power to handle all of Goten's attacks, blow for blow, a barrage of deadly punches and kicks were all stopped by Cero, who was once again slightly exerting more of his strength.
"How far has he grown his SS4 multiplier?" Vegeta showed an impressed expresion.
Trunks crossed his arms and grinned, "We all focused on putting even more effort to increasing our SS4 forms. We ate, trained, went to school, and even sleep in that form."
"We got it to 10,000 time our base," Raunch followed up.
Goten grinned as he shouted, "Check this one out!"
The Saiyan boy transformed into a Mastered Primordial Super Saiya, surprising everyone.
Goten's new power level was Mid Tier Heaven Ranking.
"When did he master it that?!" Goku shouted as he stared at his son with stars in his eyes.
Trunks grinned and began bragging, "We figured it out when we did the fusion dance. After achieving it together as a Gotenks, it was a lot easier for us to master in a shorter time!"
Vegeta smiled as he rubbed Trunk's hair, "Little rascal, you hid that from us!?"
Trunks grinned and Raunch laughed as they watched Cero actually taking some hits.
Nevertheless, every once in a while, Goten would take a very noticeable and powerful blow from Cero.
Goten went in and hit the Android's gut. Cero, however, countered by kicking him into the ground so hard, an imprint of his body formed into the earth.
Goten powered up as much as he could and shot out of the ground. He placed his hands into the traditional Kamehameha stance and shouted, "Super, Spiral, Kamehameha!"
Cero was surprised by the change Goten made in Goku's attack and countered with a Kamehameha of his own.
The blast slammed into each other and the two began struggling back and forth. Cero's base power was that of a High Tier Mortal God, yet Goten's Spiral Kamehameha had helped him bridge that gap.
"What a powerful technique!" Cero thought to himself as he continued to power up.
Little by little, Goten was being forced back, and loosing more of his power.
"Darn it!" Goten shouted as he pushed the limits of his body to the brink of colapse.
"I will win!" Goten roared as Z-Fighters noticed a hint of God Ki surging inside Goten's body.
With a loud shout, Goten's hair and fur turned vibrant red. His muscles slimed down while a massive explosion of God Ki surged out of his body. His Aura surged into the sky and turned the clouds and atmosphere gold and red as he transformed into a True Super Saiyan God Red.
Becoming a True Super Saiyan God Red, Goten's power surged until it hit High Tier Mortal God Ranking.
Goten's blast completely overpowered Cero in his base form and quickly rushed over to Cero's body.
He was seconds away from being engulfed by the attack when Goku shouted at the top of his lungs, "You can do it, son!!!"
Cero quickly transformed into his Red-Gold Form and disappeared from the young Saiyan's sight.
Goten's blast went straight through the air and destroyed a large portion of the planet in a massive explosion. In response, the dragon's magic quickly kicked it into overdrive and instantly repaired the damage.
Cero then reappeared at Goten's side and gave him a swift chop to the back of the neck.
Goten's eyes rolled back as his consciousness faded, the boy fell forward, landing on the ground while reverting to his base form.
Goku appeared beside his son, placing one hand on the ground and the other on Goten's back. Goku then gathered the life energy from the nearby plants and gave it to Goten in order to heal his wounds.
Once Goten recovered enough to swallow a Sensu Bean, Goku fed him one and picked him up, "You were amazing, son! I'm so proud of you."
Goten laughed as his father threw him up and down into the air. However, once Goten had a chance to calm down, he puffed up his cheeks and spoke with a sense of annoyance, "Aw, man, I lost didn't I?"
Goku nodded Goten's head and patted and said, "Yes, but you grew much stronger, you even managed to achieve True Super Saiyan God Red. I'm so proud of you, son."
Goten blushed a bit and hugged his father, "I won't lose next time!"
Chi-Chi ran over and started crying as she hugged Goten, "I'm so proud of you. You did great, son."
Goku smiled at his family before he nodded to Cero and said, "Thank you."
Cero nodded his head in return as the Son family flew back to the rest of the group.
Trunks met up with Goten and shouted, "That was awesome! You finally caught up!"
Goten turned his head to the side, "I know, right! Now our fusion will be even stronger."
Vegeta turned his head and said, "You sneaky little runt, don't tell me that you unlocked your God Ki?"
Trunks rubbed his nose, "Hey dad, I'm not much stronger than Goten, so I think Gotenks should make his appearance."
Vegeta smiled and said, "If that's what you wish."
Goten and Trunks smiled, they then walked up to Cero and shouted, "Hey! Cero! Get ready for your next opponent!"
"Hey no fair! what about me? I wanna fight!" Raunch shouted.
"I know your strong Raunch, but leave it to the professionals!" Trunk rolled his eyes.
"Why can't I fuse with Goten?" Raunch growled.
"Because you're a girl, and fusing with a girl would be weird!" Trunks shouted back.
"Hey Goten, why don't you decide?" Raunch shouted.
"Yeah, Goten, tell you only want to fuse with me!" Trunk barked back.
Goten placed his hand out and said, "You know the rules!"
Raunch and Trunks gave a betrayed look before they held their hands out.
"Jan, Ken, Pon!" They drew their hands out.
"Ha! Take that, I get to fuse with Goten!" Trunks laughed.
Raunch stared at her scissor hand and cried out with tears in her eyes, "Meanie!"
"Achoo!" Launch sneezed turning to her blue-haired form. Seeing her baby crying, she ran over to her and hugged her, "Who did it? Who hurt my baby? Who do I have to kill?!"
Only Raditz wasn't shocked. There was only one time his sweetheart's kinder side ever acted this fierce, and that was when some hurt or made fun of their daughter.
"Did that woman just go Super Saiyan Blue? No...it's a darker color," Cero thought as he stared at the spectacle before him.
Trunk's gulped as he turned to Goten and whispered, "We should hurry."
Vegeta smiled as he watched the two boys perform a minute-long Fusion Dance.
The fusion dance worked by merging two peoples Ki and bodies by imagining them as two great streams forming into one.
The longer the water ran, the wider the river grew; or the time limit, in this case.
Every fifteen seconds equated to half an hour, giving them two hours total if they stayed in base form. One hour and a half if they go full force.
Once Gotenks appeared, the planet shook as he posed by pointing his thumb and his chest and shouted, "The ultimate warrior has arrived, prepare to lose, Cero!"
Cero looked at the two and said, "Fascinating, your entire being has fused into a new individual. Impressive technique. I'll make sure to memorize it."
Gotenks jumped over to Ceroand said, "Now, let's try this one again!"
Cero was caught off guard by Gotenk's sudden arrival, and before he could even so much as make a move, Gotenks transformed into a True Super Saiyan God Red before punching Cero so hard, that he went flying through a few dozen mountainsides.
