38 Chapter 38: The Bad End...

"Hey! Leave my friends alone!" An orange blur appeared in an instant.

The Dragon Team could feel Chiaotzu's ki disappearing. Tien screamed in rage at losing his best friend to a Saiyan once again. He charged a Tri-Beam with all of his power in a blind rage, not even taking in the existence of Goku. The triclops overloaded the Tri-Beam with his life force. He was going to do some lasting damage to this damn Saiyan, even if he had to use up life energy from himself in the afterlife.

Turles could sense this dangerous amount of power building up within Tien. He used instant transmission in front of him, crouching while looking down on him. His finger gently tapped Tien's bald head, and he stopped time. Using this instance, Turles began reading the memories of all of the Z-Fighters minus Chiaotzu.

Gaining knowledge of several techniques and technology that would vanish into the wind if he killed them too fast. Turles gained knowledge of the Four Witches Technique, the Tri-Beam, the Mafuba from Piccolo, Magic Materialization from the Namekian, the Kaio-ken, Spirit Bomb, the personal memories of transforming into a super saiyan, the solar flare, shapeshifting from Puar, the blueprints of creating the dragon radar, capsule technology, and even more knowledge from Bulma.

With that properly settled, he had no use for anyone but Piccolo now. He returned back to his initial position and exhaled. In his Great Ape form, he greeted the super saiyan, staring at him without a trace of forgiveness in his eyes. If it was before his training on Planet Yardrat, Turles would be worried, but spirit control was amazing.

"You must be the Mr. Goku my children have been telling me all about." Turles laughed.

"Turles! Why are you doing this?! Frieza is dead! There's no reason to hurt innocent people like this anymore!" Goku shouted at him.

"Why do you people assume I'm doing this for Frieza? Can't I want to take over the universe for myself?" Turles questioned.

"That's wrong! The universe isn't under anyone's control! People should be as free as they like without some jerk like you making them live in fear and terror." Goku argued.

"Let's agree to disagree, Kakarot. You won't change my mind, and I can't change your mind."

"HIYAH!!!" Turles heard a shout from behind him.

Turles casually backflipped in the air, wrapping his tail around his waist as he dodged the Destructo Disk. "Piccolo! Vegeta!" Krillin shouted. The Namekian and Saiyan prince both fired their own tail-cutting ki attacks toward the distracted Turles. Turles laughed while doing acrobatic twirls and jumps all over the wastelands while the Z-Fighters tried to cut off his tail.

"Almost got me." Turles kicked Piccolo deep into the earth.

"Next time, don't be so loud with your sneak attacks, baldie." Turles flicked Krillin far away into the distance with his tail.

"Still charging up? It's really taking you a while, huh?" Turles grinned while looking down on Tien, putting all of his life energy into this Tri-Beam.

Turles could actually see the Earthling aging in real-time, with his skin starting to sag. "Well, I'll give you your time." Turles caught Vegeta by wrapping his tail around his body.  He was behind him again, trying to chop off his tail.

Turles began to crush the life out of the royal Saiyan while engaging in close combat with the super saiyan of legends. Despite Turles's huge size, his speed wasn't diminished in the slightest. The Great Ape transformation increased the power of the user by ten times in every parameter. Although it was nothing compared to the super saiyan's times fifty boost, there was a qualitative difference between Kakarot's base power and Turles's base power.

For more than ten years, Turles dined on the divine Fruit of Might. His power grew to incredible levels, even if he chose to share it with his crew and children. Besides the power of a fruit meant for gods, his ki took a change in quality once more thanks to learning spirit control. Kakarot had no such advantages except his Saiyan Power. Growing stronger by recovering from the brink of death. It was this difference that allowed Turles to face off against a super saiyan like Kakarot and all of his friends at the same time, only in Oozaru.

"AUGHHHH!!! AGHHH!!!!! AHHHHH!!!" Prince Vegeta screamed as Turles crushed him with his tail.

Kakarot frowned at the sounds of this and fought him with even more fervor to free Vegeta. Turles could sense multiple attacks heading his way, and it seemed Tien was finally finished charging up. His ki has reached its peak and was no longer increasing. It was time for that beautiful Tri-Beam to head his big monkey way.

"Solar Flare!" Kakarot blinded him.

"Tri-Beam!" Turles could sense the amazing power headed his way.

With a deep guttural chuckle, he caught Kakarot through ki-sensing before he could fly away and tossed him in the way of the beam. Unfortunately, Kakarot used instant transmission to teleport out of the way. Turles, however, did have a backup. He turned his back to Tien's Tri-Beam and tossed the severely injured Vegeta, who was still being crushed by his tail, into it.

"What a worthless excuse of a Prince," Turles said as Vegeta took the full brunt of Tien's final attack.

Vegeta dropped to the ground, his life force etching away slowly. Tien was no different. The triple-eyed Earthling dropped face-first to the ground, no longer capable of standing again. "Wolf Fang Fist!" Yamcha shouted, aiming to cut off his tail with his ki-sharpened hands.

"What? Didn't you hear me before about being loud with your sneak attacks?" Turles crushed Yamcha into the ground with his boot.

Still blinded, he couldn't see the outcome of the former bandit being crushed by his foot, but he could sense two rising energies nearby.

"Masenko!" Gohan yelled, pouring all he had into this attack.

"Special Beam Cannon!" Piccolo couldn't hold anything back even if he wanted to.

Turles used his index fingers and jabbed at both Gohan and Piccolo. His finger heavily damaged the duo and sent them flying away together. Overpowering their beam attacks with just the strength in his fingers. The Saiyan Overlord looked at the burn marks on his fingers and laughed.

"The Namekian and Halfling were the first ones actually to hurt me! Impressive." Turles finally opened his eyes, only to see a furious Kakarot staring him dead in the eyes.

"That's enough." Goku gathered a dangerous amount of ki in his hand.

"I'm having the time of my life, I must admit. It would be a shame to end it so soon, Kakarot." Turles wasn't lying.

Kakarot blasted him with a one-handed Kamehameha that sent him flying across the wastelands. He pushed more and more energy into it until Turles was flying into the sky, above the clouds, and into the exosphere. It was a fun ride, a bit painful, but nothing deadly. Surely, Kakarot had to know that something like that wasn't enough to kill him, right? He wondered what that good-natured look-alike was planning.

Turles teleported right next to Kakarot after healing himself with spirit control. It drained his ki, but it wasn't like he was badly injured. He looked at the fool, depowered into his base form, holding up his hands in the air just like he didn't care. A spirit bomb, huh? 

"Do you mind explaining yourself, Kakarot?" Turles asked as if he didn't know what he was doing.

"Give me a second to kill you, please?" Goku politely requested.

"Do you take me for a fool?" Turles asked, towering above the tiny idiot.

"You seem like a smart guy." Kakarot complimented him after just previously looking at him with so much hatred.

"What's stopping me from killing you right now?" Turles questioned.

"We might be brothers…?" Goku didn't sound so sure. He must have heard how similar they looked from his children.

Turles only chuckled as he used his tail to turn the remaining bald Earthling to dust. His tail fired a purple beam that eradicated Krillin, who was charging multiple Destructo Disks silently this time. "Krillin!!!" Goku shouted in anguish. However, despite how pissed off he was, he kept his hands raised to the sky.

"Well, that baldie wasn't enough for you to care about me, I'll just go kill your son next, okay?" Turles waved and secretly looked back to see if Kakarot would drop the spirit bomb in favor of saving his son's life.

Kakarot did no such thing and only angrily gritted his teeth. Turles supposed he figured they might be able to bring everyone back somehow. Gohan has never died before, so he'd be able to be brought back easily. The others were a bit more difficult… Turles didn't know if Kakarot knew about the Namekians on New Namek yet. But he did.

Turles instant transmission next to Gohan and Piccolo. The boy was knocked out of the fight while Piccolo stood over his body, beat to shit. Piccolo stood in front of Gohan. His arms held out wide to protect him. With a laugh, Turles flicked Piccolo out of the way and crushed the unconscious disappointment with his finger. There will be no bullshit power-ups from him now or in the future.

Piccolo slumped into a deep sleep after being buried underneath some rocks. When he turned his back, he saw a sparkling, bright, gigantic blue orb headed his way. Kakarot was glaring at him with everything he had. Not even Frieza probably received this much hatred from him. Hell, Nappa and Vegeta, who slaughtered his friends just like he did, probably didn't get glared at with half as much hate as this.

"This is it, Turles! You will pay for your evil! In your next life, I hope you're reborn as a good guy…" Goku knew he had the potential for good in him. His children weren't bad people…

"Idiot. This life or the next, I will never be good." Turles looked at the surprisingly swift gigantic ki orb headed his way.

Kakarot leaped into the air and transformed into a super saiyan, empowering the rest of his power into the Spirit Bomb, strengthening it further. Turles placed a single palm on the final gambit Spirit Bomb before teleporting elsewhere in the universe. Just before the Spirit Bomb could engulf him and the planet, he stopped time, moved out of the way, exhaled, and instant transmissioned back to Earth.

"Enjoy your time in Otherworld, Kakarot. I'll take care of the universe and Earth in your absence." Turles returned back to his original form.

Standing over the utterly exhausted and spent identical Saiyan, Turles didn't hesitate and fired a purple beam that pierced Kakarot's heart. The only ones remaining on the desolate and empty battlefield were four people. Turles, Puar, Bulma, and Piccolo.

Bulma's genius could be useful, but she wasn't the only genius in the world. He had already stolen her memories and knowledge. Turles crushed her fainted body with his boot, and Puar met a similar fate. He couldn't help but maniacally laugh as everything was falling into place.
