37 Super Saiyan?

The pressure coming from Zyleth was immense. Just being near him felt as though they were hundreds of leagues under water.

It was hard to breathe. Hard to think. Hard to move.

It was as if their bodies refused to function just by being close to him. This wasn't what it was like when they were in front of Frieza. This was something deeper, more primal.

Like there was this urge deep within them that wanted to both bow down and run away from him, but it couldn't decide which action to take so they just froze.

"W-What the hell is that...?" Fasha asked, her voice shaking as she looked at the child she had partially nurtured since birth.

Borgos clutched his chest, his breathing hampered by just laying eyes on him. "Should... run..."

"Is... Is that something we can do?" Shugesh asked, his body shaking down to his bones.

"Bardock?" Tora asked, turning his head towards their leader.

"I... I have no idea..." Bardock replied.

"What form of power is this?" Sela muttered, unable to even comprehend what had just happened.

"This... This is it..." The King said, a crazed smile forming on his lips. "He's finally done it..."

"What are you talking about? What has Zyleth done?!" Sela asked, his voice shaking with both worry and fear.

The King began to laugh as he stood up, ignoring the pain of his injured body and yelling towards Frieza.

"THIS IS YOUR END, FRIEZA! GET READY TO FACE THE POWER OF THE LEGENDARY SUPER SAIYAN!" He yelled out in deranged glee before falling unconscious.

Hearing the mad King's words, Frieza looked towards the child that held his fist, wanting nothing more than to deny the claim. But he couldn't. The proof was standing right in front of him. And it wanted to rip him apart.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHH!!!"

Zyleth yelled, his black and red aura doubling in size as he gripped harder on Frieza's hand. His other hand charged back and hit Frieza right in the gut, causing the mighty Emperor to double over in pain.

The blow was so hard that it knocked all the air out of Frieza's lungs.

"Uuuuuaaagh..."

Frieza quickly wrapped his tail around Zyleth's neck in an attempt to gain the upper hand, but it proved ineffective when Zyleth simply grabbed his tail and pried it off his neck.

"W-What?!" Frieza exclaimed.

A dark smirk grew on Zyleth's face as he gripped onto the Frost Demon's tail and started to spin. Like a child with a toy, Zyleth continued to spin Frieza around until his tail was forcibly ripped from his main body and Frieza went flying into the castle as a result.

Zyleth looked at the severed tail in his hands with disinterest before dropping it to the ground and flying off towards Frieza.

"Lord Frieza!" Dodoria yelled as he and Zarbon were about to fly off to support him.

Hearing the loud exclamation of Dodoria, Bardock and the others snapped out of their stupor and quickly rushed over to intercept them.

"No you don't!" Bardock shouted, blasting the two with a high powered energy blast.

The two commanders quickly dodged out of the way and regrouped, only to see that they were completely surrounded by a group of five adult Saiyans.

"Going somewhere?" Tora asked, cracking his fists as he smirked at both of the shocked aliens.

"You weren't thinking of interrupting them, were ya?" Shugesh asked, his hands on his hips.

Seeing that they were outnumbered, Zarbon and Dodoria gritted their teeth in anger before Dodoria's face suddenly grew a devious smirk.

"You deal with them. I'll go support Lord Frieza!" He yelled before blitzing off towards the castle.

Zarbon looked at his backstabbing cohort with an ugly expression before turning back towards the Saiyans, who didn't even look as though they were interested in going after him.

"You... You aren't going to chase him?" He asked, wondering what they were plotting. Especially since that their aim was to stop them from interrupting the fight between their Lord and that monster in monkey skin.

"Don't worry about that." Bardock smirked.

Back with Dodoria, he chuckled devilishly as he closed in on the castle.

"Don't worry, Lord Frieza." He said to himself. "General Dodoria is on the way."

As he was flying, Dodoria felt a sharp, burning pain hit his back and crashed into the ground. He shook his head and pushed himself up, looking around to see three Saiyan children flying above him.

"And just where do you think you're going?" Vegeta asked, looking down on Dodoria with a pitiful stare.

"You runts really did it now..." He grumbled in anger before smirking at the three children. "Do you really think you brats have any chance at defeating me?!"

"Maybe not." Vegeta said with a serious face before extending his arms out. "But my mentor taught me the importance of teamwork."

Dodoria stared at him with a confused expression before turning around and seeing countless other Saiyans closing in around him. His mouth dropped, realizing that even he wouldn't be able to get out of this situation alive.

"SAIYANS!" Vegeta yelled out for all to hear. "TAKE BACK OUR PLANET!"

Every single Saiyan in the vicinity charged at Dodoria, wanting to rip him limb from bloody limb. Vegeta smiled sinisterly at the brutal demise of one of Frieza's top commanders.

Back in the castle, Frieza crashed through the ceiling of the throne room and collided into the throne. Using his only remaining arm, he tried pushing himself up to his feet using the broken throne, but Zyleth came through the ceiling soon after and stopped him from doing so by grabbing him by the face.

Now gripping Frieza by his face, Zyleth slammed him into the ground and dragged him across the floor, causing Frieza to scream in agony before throwing him through the doors.

Keeping up his assault, Zyleth pummeled Frieza from room to room, the force of his blows alone causing the castle foundation to shake.

He kicked Frieza up into the air and through the ceiling before suddenly teleporting right into his path. Winding his arms behind his head, Zyleth spiked Frieza back down towards the ground, causing him to land deep into the brick foundation the Royal Training Grounds.

Struggling to even breathe at this point, Frieza sat up and saw Zyleth on the far side of the training grounds, stalking towards him.

His eyes widened in fear before he suddenly reached out and started to blast away at Zyleth with his remaining strength.

"How dare you?! HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO THE GREAT LORD FRIEZA?!" He yelled, unable to comprehend how things had turned out this way for him.

Zyleth walked through the blasts with ease, getting closer and closer before suddenly backhanding Frieza through another wall.

Frieza flew back out towards the Saiyan city, stopping once he collided with one of the buildings.

"This... This is impossible..." A transformed Zarbon muttered as he crawled away from the members of Team Bardock, the lower half of his body completely gone. "This isn't... This isn't the end... It can't..."

"That's where you're wrong." Bardock said as he walked over to the crawling Zarbon.

Kicking him over, Bardock held out his palm and aimed it towards his face. A blue sphere radiated from his palm as he looked at Zarbon with a serious expression.

"This is the end." He said before blasting Zarbon into nothing but ash.

Dropping his arm to his side, Bardock turned around and looked towards his team. While having a few new bruises, they still looked ready for another tumble or two.

"Think the others got Dodoria yet? Maybe they'll need some more backup." Tora said.

"That won't be necessary."

Looking over, they saw the three members of Team Black walking over to them. Looking towards Vegeta, they saw Dodoria's head hoisted over his shoulder.

"Seems that answers that." Shugesh muttered.

"Eugh... What are you doing with that?" Fasha asked with a disgusted face.

"I'm going to mount it on my wall." Vegeta answered plainly, looking around the floor for something. "Where's the green-haired one?"

"Ash." Bardock replied.

"Shame. I wanted his head as well." Vegeta grumbled.

"There's always his legs." Tora replied, pointing over his shoulder.

Looking over to where Tora was pointing, Vegeta saw what looked like a pair of legs that had been perfectly ripped from the top half of Zarbon's body.

He looked at the pair of legs for a moment, rubbing his chin in thought.

"Why are you actually thinking about it...?" Fasha muttered, feeling very sick all of a sudden.

Suddenly, the rumble of a loud crash sounded off behind them and they turned, seeing Frieza digging his battered form out from underneath some rubble. Hearing more rumblings, they turned towards the castle and saw Zyleth walking out of the destroyed castle wall, the ground crumbling under his feet as he walked towards Frieza.

"What is this? Is this really the power of the Super Saiyan of legend?" Vegeta asked.

"I don't know..." Bardock muttered, staring at his son with a complicated gaze. "But I don't like it one bit..."

"This isn't real... This can't be! THIS CAN'T BE!" Frieza yelled out, but his cries of denial were short lived when Zyleth grabbed him by his horns and started to pull.

Frieza tried desperately to pry the Saiyan's hands away from him, but it was useless given that he only had one hand.

"You..." Frieza seethed, his body radiating a purple glow. "GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF ME!"

The power exhibited by Frieza had managed to blow away Zyleth, even though he far outclassed him. It didn't knock him far though, as he planted his feet into the ground and forced himself to stop.

"FRIEZA!!!" Zyleth yelled out towards the sky, his black and red aura expanding to even greater heights.

"You wretched ape! I'll show you the true might of Lord Frieza!" Frieza started to yell as well, his aura matching Zyleth's in terms of raw power, and even exceeding it.

As they were charging up, Zyleth's face suddenly grew a smirk before he suddenly stopped powering up and sent a Power Ball straight into the atmosphere. Not expecting this, the Emperor quickly tried to send a blast to intercept, but Zyleth quickly appeared in front of the blast and deflected it away.

The Power Ball reached its destination and was about to release its energy before suddenly being blown away.

"Well now, isn't this interesting."

Before either could react, multiple beams shot through the young Saiyan's body, causing enough shock to run through him that his pupils reappeared. The dark aura that surrounded Zyleth had disappeared instantly and the Saiyan fell to the ground unresponsive.

Looking towards the sky, Frieza's eyes widened more than ever as he couldn't believe who he saw.

"Br-Brother?!" He exclaimed.

Floating above him was the towering form of Cooler, and hovering close behind him was his Armored Squadron.

"Frieza." Cooler smiled sinisterly as he acknowledged his younger sibling.

Waking up in a familiar black void, Zyleth groaned as he sat up and took in his surroundings.

"W-What?" He muttered.

He recognized the void instantly. The cold, but warm feeling of the atmosphere surrounding him was like meeting an old friend.

"Hey." A voice suddenly called out.

Turning towards the unknown voice, Zyleth saw a man staring at him with an indifferent expression.

"We need to talk."

That man staring at him was Astral. The god who had reincarnated Zyleth five years ago.
