Finals, Piccolo

As Z2 I prepared for the fight with Piccolo. I thought about what I could do to win. Out of all the fighters I'd say Piccolo was the smartest, he would definitely suspect something. If I had my armor I could just shrug off his attacks. however the tournament guys banned that technique, this also meant my Sunlight Javelin was out of the picture as it would count as a weapon as well. I could always for go the rules and just win it with the armor. After all I doubt Piccolo would blow up the planet if I can beat him.

It dawned on me that he would likely for go the rules to win as well. Hell I think in the anime he actually uses some dirty tactics like firing attacks toward the crowd. I would need to deflect those. I then got my idea on how to win, I needed to expose his identity after that... maybe just maybe like in Dragon ball he would use the Super Giant-Form that he used against Goku during the tournament. It would then count as a ring out and I could use my armor again. Piccolo would be pissed at me though...He might hold a grudge, hopefully Gohan can still be born to soften him up.

"Come to the stage Z2 let's get this fight under way."

I hopped onto the stage with Piccolo. The announcer begun speaking, "#This is the final fight of the 23rd world martial arts tournament. We have Z2 a fighter who ended his fights with tactics and sneaky tricks. The second fighter is Ma Junior who had fights with extreme skill and unrelenting talent. This next fight will determine who reigns supreme as the world champion. Let us begin this final fight...#"

The announcer took a serious tone for the fight, piccolo was also serious as he begun his attack right off the back much like I did with Goku. When Piccolo charged for me I headbutted him and tired to blast him with a ki attack. Piccolo was able to dodge and deflect my attack. Piccolo almost predictably fire a energy beam toward the crowd I move toward it bouncing it back at him. He blocked and smiled.

"Typical to protect such pathetically weak creatures!"

He begun charging a much larger attack so I charged my own. My was faster than his, "Solar Ray!" My Beam blasted toward him, Piccolo stopped his own attack to dodge, but failed to do so. Piccolo's clothes burned away and his Turban fell. Now I could handle this fight without the crowd.

"#Is that KING PICCOLO!?! This is incredible it appears that Ma Junior was actually Piccolo in disguise. Though now that I think about it, its not much of a disguise.#"

I waited for the crowds of people to flee, I pointed toward Bulma and sent a gesture to head over to where Goku and the other fighters stood. I could hear Krillin asking Goku why he didn't tell them. Tien admitting to knowing as well and saying it would've caused unnecessary panic.

"Heh, that was on purpose. Your attack wasn't even that powerful it was just quickly built energy to expose my identity. I would like to ask why, but I don't really care!"

He punctuated the word care by speeding to my side trying to send a kick into me. I dropped to the ground like a tone of bricks. Landing to the ground and begun firing a ton of blast towards Piccolo. He blocked some of them, but they didn't disperse instead they hung in the air.

"What?" He turned and saw the dozens of floating balls behind him. "Solar Array!" The dozens of ki orbs rocketed toward Piccolo. Blowing him up along with the surrounding area. I made at least a hundred of the orbs. Piccolo however came out of the smoke.

"That was my hellzone grenade, how do you know everyone's techniques. I have no doubt most of your own attacks are just altered versions of other people's attacks. Yours however charge almost instantly... Very well, I shall begin to get serious. Let's fight with everything we got."

Even as he spoke I just waited, he begun the technique I had waited for. Piccolo begun to grow bigger, his size begun to eclipse the entire stage. For all extensive purposes he had disqualified himself with a ring out.

"Announcer dude! That's a ring out right?"

"Huh? Oh yeah it is he is now touching the grass of the stadium so its a ring out."

"Good."

"Is that all you care about? You will soon be crushed!"

I flashed into light and activated my ki armor, I could now take attacks head on. "No that's not it Piccolo, I just wanted to make sure I was disqualified for getting serious!"

I didn't need skill to blast into Piccolo, the technique he used to make himself bigger was useless. It just made him a bigger target. With my Ki armor I could literally charge my attacks instantly as my ki was already outside my body, i just had to manipulate its form. With Piccolos enlarged size and my speed he could catch me, and I begun raining down javelins of solid Ki.

Each javelin penetrated through his skin, he realized the problem of using the namek size changed. He gained a bunch of strength, but it limited him in other ways. He would likely never use that technique again, it was highly in effective.

He blasted toward me and begun exchanging punches, however my smugness had just begun. I had a literal infinite amount of ki, making my armor never wavering. It was strong enough to complete absorb the damage of Piccolo's punches. After the ineffective barrage of punches and kicks he backed off. I saw him begun his charge of the Special beam cannon, "Go ahead charge it, you lost the moment I was able to use my armor again."

"Arrogant! Special Beam Cannon!"

I blasted me in the chest sending me back, but I was able to get up like nothing happened. Out of all my abilities my armor was the one I was the most proud of. There were some who could overpower it or had special attacks that would penetrate it. Vegeta, Frieza, Cell, Majin Buu and Beerus were the only ones who I would end up fighting that had the power to break the armor. it was likely there was others, obviously Goku could break through it in time. However it was unlikely for him to be an enemy at that time. So the list of threats to my armor was minimal. I was happy, I was unstoppable...

Piccolo gave it all he had, eventually he just stopped though. "I have no words, we will post pone this battle...until I can break your defense. I will not forget this day, and I doubt you will stop me... Goodbye."

I could literally kill someone with the amount of pure ego I had. The Grimace on my face was stuck there for a full hour. I felt a little bad about winning like I did, I respected Piccolo and he was one of my favorite characters in Dragon Ball. However just the feeling of quite literal plot armor felt great, I was like a god.

Not realistically, but I was certainly feeling like it. The others all begun walking over. The glare I got from Bulma was unexpected though.
