'I'm utterly fucked...' The young saiyan thought. He quickly glanced over to see that whis was shocked at what was said.
'What the hell am I supposed to do here?! I can't say no... If I do, it'll make it seem like I'm disrespectful. If I accept, it'll make me seem like I'm arrogant...'
The young saiyan was panicking.
Plus, he knew The GP wasn't asking, it was more of a command than anything.
Still, the grand priest only smiled, while the other angels gave curious, yet surprised gazes... Then turning their eyes onto the Daiko.
'The latter is the only option for me here. Refusing would make me seem like I'm both cocky and arrogant than accepting...' Daiko thought. He quickly composed himself.
"I accept the challenge..." He said. He then quickly removed the training device he was using...
"Good. We can start now. I'll suppress myself accordingly." The grand priest said.
"Yes, but could you give me a minute to warm up? My body feels stiff from training earlier." Daiko asked.
The grand priest thought for a moment, he nodded in an understanding manner.
At the minister's acknowledgment, the saiyan began stretching, bending his body in ways one would think quite literally, impossible for his musculature, this was even evident in the minister's features as well as the other angels.
Daiko then started punching the air, with speeds comparable to a peak human, however, the sounds each blow was making made it sound like he was superhuman instead...
'His technique is terrifyingly impeccable... His punches generate force multiple times beyond his strength level... Maybe half a dozen, no a dozen times greater than his body allows...' Thought the grand priest.
The other angels watched in fascination at what the mortal in front of them was doing. Each of his moves seemed to be perfect, the Pinnacle of what could be achieved... Yet, as they all looked at his face, they could see a look of disappointment...
Most wonder why this was the case.
Daiko however, feeling the piercing gazes of the angels, began to stop. Deeming that it was enough warming up...
"I'm ready Lord Grand priest."
"Good... Whis, you can count us down from five..." The Daishinkon stated, his smile now gone.
Whis just nodded, albeit hesitantly.
Both of them got in enough distance from each other. Daiko utilized Whis' Martial art, whilst the minister used his own...
As Whis began counting down. The grand priest looked towards Daiko.
'Good. Your stance is perfect... Now let's see this potential of yours.' He thought.
The angels didn't think anything of Daiko at first. However, after seeing his little 'warm-up'. They knew he was someone that should not be messed with...
As Whis finished counting down. Daiko stood still, while the grand priest did the same. Both not moving an inch. However, the angels witnessing didn't utter a word...
However, not long after, Daiko charged first. The Daishinkon readied himself. As they finally clashed, the GP quickly attacked Daiko's liver.
However, Daiko spun, using the momentum of the GP's attack, whilst kicking the ground, adding his force with a spin kick.
Seeing the sudden counter, especially in that fashion, surprised the GP...
He quickly backed off...
"You... I've never seen one with instincts like yours... Not only did you counter perfectly, but you also added your force by hitting the floor... " GP stated.
He now knew why he felt like this... This wasn't just a normal mortal with talent...
Daiko charged in once more, this time, he took a lower stance.
'A grappling technique?' The GP thought. As Daiko drew closer, he then dashed sideways instantly, causing the grand priest to look surprised.
The grapple was a feint, instead, it was a rising kick. Seeing this, the GP grabbed Daiko's leg, and interestingly enough, lifted him off the floor.
'What the!?' He thought surprised.
The GP then readied himself to slam Daiko. However, as he did so, Daiko quickly spun himself and launched a kick, causing the GP to let go.
Daiko somersaulted in the air, landing gracefully...
"... I think. we should stop with the theatrics... We should stop holding back ourselves. We both know we've been testing each other out." The saiyan said suddenly.
This caused the angels to look questionable. Testing each other out? It was only their father testing anything here.
"Interesting. I agree. However... If I were to show you my full capabilities, I don't think you would be able to handle it..."
The GP said smiling.
"We will see..." That's all that Daiko said.
He then readied himself once more, this time, the GP smiling. No longer in a stance...
However, Daiko's instincts swiftly kicked in...
'He's using it... Ultra instinct. I know he was just playing with me before, like wise me as well, he hasn't even begun showing all of his martial arts too...' He thought.
The saiyan could tell, this was Ultra instinct. He's been around whis long enough to know what it feels like, unfortunately. He hadn't sparred with him to truly get a feel for the technique...
This time, The GP charged, with speeds far surpassing his earlier capabilities.
'SHIT!' Daiko thought. The GP was in front of him almost instantly. Immediately, the GP aimed at Daiko's pressure points. Barely keeping up, he managed to block the blows. however, the blunt damage could still be felt.
The Daishinkon quickly aimed at Daiko's legs, Immediately with his sharpened reflexes, Daiko blocked the strike Justin time, however, he was pushed back.
Flurry after flurry of blows proceeded with Daiko seemingly on the losing end, and the GP constantly using different martial arts. Not allowing the Saiyan to adapt in time...
Whis looked on with worry for his student, whilst the others other than a mysterious pair knew that this would be the outcome. No mortal could hope to beat the father of all angels. Especially not a 15-year-old...
*BOOM!*
A thunderous blow and shockwave could be felt through the field. The GP landed a powerful blow, seemingly to end the fight. With Daiko bloodied...
.

'He's still standing... This mortal. Whis wasn't lying about his potential. He managed to block all of my blows despite my using the technique of the gods. He never allowed a similar thing to work on him twice, and even improving his parrying, however not attacking has its limits. But he just won't fall... You Daiko, have impressed me, not even my children could last this long, even on the defensive...' The GP thought.
Daiko could be seen with his legs in a horse stance-like position, his arms in an 'x' like formation, whilst covering his face and abdominal...
The GP seeing this began walking away admiring the youth's constitution and prowess...
"Whis... I've seen enough... Your student indeed has tremendous potential." The GP said, however, Whis never answered. Instead, he saw his child look into space with pure disbelief written on his face...
Curious. The grand priest turned around, only to see Daiko standing as if he was fine, despite the bruises he had over his body...
As he looked at the Saiyan's face, there was an oddly calm demeanor...
"Analysis complete..." The saiyan whispered to himself. The GP didn't hear anything but simply looked on curiously...
Then, a simple look started to transform into sensations... He then felt instincts were warning him...
Daiko simply looked forward, exhaling and inhaling. One could see his breath as if his body was steaming from the inside out...
Daiko's body suddenly flexed. Going from muscular to shredded in an instant, his breathing pattern now changing.
His stance now changing as well, now proud and unstoppable...
His eyes morphed, as his hair began rising while flowing like a serene river.
His once-white scleras are now pitch black, whilst his iris and pupils are now a luminescent white, glowing...
The others witnessed this change, looking on completely shocked...
.
.
.
As if finished, the metamorphosis was over... The very air ceiling to an unbelievable degree...
Daiko then spoke.
"Trust me, Grand Priest... This fight is far from over. I'll be using my full power, get ready..."
