Dangerous Intellect (96)

'Huh?'

Broly confusedly looked down at the humanoid who suddenly got smaller, two huge meaty arms obstructing his view.

'Great Ape?'

He was literally just thinking about transforming and he suddenly transformed.

'Tch!'

A wave of desire to pound the humanoid into the dirt rushed to his brain, forcing his willpower to retaliate with even more strength.

'It's some mental strain but compared to the Legendary form, this is nothing!' Broly assured himself.

After the first wave of desire, the emotion to completely destroy wore off, allowing Broly to calmly assess the situation.

"10x Gravity Wave!" G1 cried out, pointing a strange device at Broly.

The air pressure around Broly suddenly shifted, bearing heavier weight on his body.

Broly scoffed as he felt the air tickle him.

"You're going to have to do a lot better than that!" he said, almost mocking the mutant machine.

"Tch! 100x Gravity wave!" G1 roared out, the strange device becoming more complex and concentrated.

The air pressure around Broly kicked up a notch, becoming 10x heavier than it once was before. The hairs on his body were all pulled down but besides this, there was no other actual effect.

Broly scoffed again, now feeling a light tap.

'Wait a minute! 100x gravity? How? When I left the technology could only go to 20!' Broly thought, intrigued by the promise of further enhanced gravity.

An idea quickly formed in his mind.

"Stop wasting my time! Go to your highest setting if you want to even hope to defeat me! Or is this your maximum output?" Broly said tauntingly.

Baby scoffed underneath the Fire Tribe mine, he was certainly capable of creating a stronger gravity device but he never considered it to be necessary, he didn't expect the great ape to be completely unfazed.

Logically speaking, a sudden change in gravity no matter what magnitude would still cause some actual effect on a body, but to Broly who had soundlessly covered his skin with ki, his thick fur hiding this, as well as his now largened muscles that were already used to gravity changes allowed him to act like it didn't phase him at all.

In reality, he forced his ki to press against the air around him, keeping him at the same pressure before slowly letting his ki dwindle, reducing the pressure difference at any one time.

Baby was called out.

He didn't have the means to create a higher gravity machine but he couldn't let an organic be right in his presence.

Baby wracked its synthetic brain and then it commanded G1 to start to modify itself into a Gravity Amplification device, completely refiguring its physical body as it shapeshifted to increase its output.

No sound was made but the air around Broly doubled in magnitude, the air pressure becoming 200x greater.

Broly didn't say anything smiling to himself as he opened his great and wide jaw, shifting his body forward, aiming to swallow the device whole.

CRUNCH!

Broly's teeth crashed back together, unearthing a small portion of the land as he scooped the machine into its mouth.

'Time to see if that ki training paid off!' Broly thought, quickly executing the idea that popped into his head.

Inside Broly's mouth, several humanoid-shaped ki clusters swiftly flew towards the machine Broly had trapped.

Without deliberation, a thin wave of ki gently streamed out of the ghosts, wrapping around the device, sticking closely to all of its parts without breaking.

'There it is!'

Broly then willed his ki, causing one of the humanoid-ghost figures to form a ki blade that tore apart a section of the device.

'FUCK!' Baby cursed bitterly, feeling that his connection to G1 had been abruptly cut off.

Broly smirked as he focused in on the exterior parts of the device, trying to reverse engineer the device purely based on its shape, ignoring the literal lumps of dirt in his mouth.

G2 obediently reached the surface, able to see Broly's massive figure on the skyline and extended both of its arms, performing what could only be described as a long-distance charge attack.

Deep blue fire condensed in its palms and rocketed fiercely away from them, quickly flying across the earth and approaching an unexpectant Broly.

Broly suddenly sensed a ki signature quickly heading towards him, he didn't waste time trying to look at it, simply jumping high into the air, leaning forward so that he would hit the ground quickly.

G2 cursed around raised its aim, adapting to Broly's movements, tracking him.

But Broly was too fast.

He didn't need to see at all, he tumbled smoothly, relying on his muscular legs to carry him away from the row of fire that followed him.

'Tch!'

G2 separated one of its arms, condensing an ice ball that blasted into a beam, freezing the surface of the land that it skimmed.

Broly sensed the surface of the earth being covered with a thin layer of ki, quickly growing over.

'Ice?'

It was the same thing he had seen Zes do at the Tsufurian tournament.

'Definitely a Tuffle'

Any doubt Broly had was now thoroughly extinguished.

The pillar of fire behind him didn't ease up, instead raising, anticipating his jump in advance and streaming across the sky higher, eager to catch Broly who was clambering away from it.

Broly shifted his attention from the device, satisfied with his analysis of the components and finally opened his eyes, seeing the lake of ice freezing towards him as well as the source of the fire that flowed behind him.

Broly smirked, spotting a humanoid similar to one in he had chomped, and ran towards it, edging around the lake of ice before performing a ki-boosted jump, his strong legs, fierce ki and the lightened gravity collaborating wonderfully, allowing him to perform an awe-inspiring leap, flying across the surface of blue in seconds.

Baby snickered, performing its counter-measures for the choice Broly had decided to make.

Mountains of Ice emerged from the lake, tall frozen structures spiking out from ground level posing an obstacle in Broly's path.

G2 stopped shooting fire, instead focusing on creating densely packed ice peaks that opposed Broly.

Broly didn't even blink, fearlessly raising up his fist and smashing into the ice column, cracks spreading like a virus. The sheer momentum of his humongous body was excessive, allowing him to tear through the structures like paper.

Baby smirked and manipulated the frozen ice that was scattered in the air, in the same second creating Ice humanoids that quickly extended their limbs down to Broly's body, so fast that they caught him in time and were pulled along, gripping to his thick fur.

Broly frowned but his ki had already reached past his skin and crawled onto the ice monsters, trying to detonate them on impact.

The ice creatures had no choice but to rupture viciously, any grip they had on Broly breaking as the atmosphere around him exploded.

Broly's huge red eyes opened again, locking in on G2 who had its arms raised again, forming a horribly hot white beam of fire in its palms.

Before he knew it, thick green bundles of ki appeared in his mouth, eroding the dirt he had captured from early, a storm of lightning brewing savagely.

FYUM!

The beam of fire escaped G2's hand without warning, flying towards Broly precisely.

Broly's mouth opened and a column of green poured out suddenly, clashing with the white beam of heat but the unrestricted width and depth of Broly's blast promised G2 no chance of survival.

A devastating storm of lightning surrounded it quickly, Broly's beam relentlessly swerving around G2 who expected the stray energy to fly past him.

"HUAAAAAAH!"

Broly cried as his energy wrecked G2 wildly, his mouth snapping wide open as he roared triumphantly.

CLACK!

The earth broke suddenly, a tiny figure flying towards Broly's mouth.

Baby connected to G1 on contact, fusing together while Broly's jaw snapped shut trapping him inside, dark green energy flowing around Baby.

Pinky-crimson ki surfaced on Baby's skin.

'All according to plan,' Baby thought snarkily.
