Chapter 64 - Thrown Away

Reverting back into his base form he was about to break history once again. What's new.

Tensing his muscles, his veins all over his body strained to its limits to keep up with the power that was currently being forced out from within. Despite him being in his base form, the aura around glowed a light yellow as he started this transformation.

The air around him started to swirl into a dense smoke masking parts of his body as if they were called to. Releasing a muffled yell into the sky with the sound of a distorted ape. What? It felt good.

This transformation was similar to his ape form, hair growing all across his body similar to his tail. Except for this time, the golden aura seeped inside every hair that grew to turn it into deep scarlet color. Each and every one eluded phenomenal power.

Lastly, his hair turned into a comfortable mane while his eyes turned yellow. Completing the transformation, a phantom of an enraged ape with golden hair protruded out of him affecting everyone around him.

21, hit with it at point-blank had the golden ape encompass her brain. It rampaged around her mind not helping with her sanity one bit.

'I didn't want to use this transformation but such a strong opponent to test my limits. I can already tell I am many times stronger than her, but the transformation will only last 10 minutes tops. That is the penalty of reaching this checkpoint without my body being ready for it.'

Because of his wish previously allowing him easier control of transformations, he was able to get this transformation even before Super Saiyan 2. However, with his weak body and weak ki reserves, he could not sustain it for long.

The only solution was to get stronger in his base form to truly capitalize the power in this transformation and last substantially longer.

Android 21 was still holding her head from the passive mental attack that he unleashed with just transforming into the state. Luckily, his allies were outside the range unaffecting them.

Although they were holding their own, 16 stalling Cell with his unlimited energy and massive firepower, and Gohan and Bulla bombarding 18 and 17 in their airtight creativity and teamwork, he knew he needed to finish 21 before taking care of their opponents.

The Good 21 watched from a safe distance, her heart was in a state of turmoil. All of this doom and destruction was all because of her. At least that was what she thought.

'If only I was stronger, I could have destroyed her before she got out of control. But I failed...twice.'

She turned to look at Goku, who was standing tall with his back facing her. The Sun shone perfectly to make him out to be heaven-sent, glistening upon his red fur.

'What is this timeline? Based on my research, of course, there should be branching timelines but this is to the extreme. This Goku already is reaching the scope of the Goku I met before and he is many times younger! What could possibly happen to change this one so much from the one I was just in?'

Having a time limit on this transformation, Goku vanished into action. He didn't wait for 21 to recover and appeared before her in an extremely calm manner. Similar to the Ape form, this Super Ape form suppressed his mind to be calm and steady. Unless prompted, that high ceiling won't be broken anytime soon.

Grabbing each hand by the wrist, he snapped both of her arms to an irregular position. The snap sounds of bones and intense pain broke the mental lock that she was in and she found herself back into a position of inferiority.

"AHH!"

'Even after transforming to my ultimate form, I am still weaker? Still weak at every turn and corner!'

She looked at Goku with her red eyes in silence. She couldn't move her arms as he was holding onto it and even with her regeneration factor, it couldn't be put to use if he held it in that position forever.

Soon she would find out that it will be a long time until she can look at his eyes directly again. Trapping her hands next to her and he put her in a hold. Hugging the life out of her, her back muscles started to crumble down as her skin got closer and closer to his.

If she didn't stop this, her eyes would eventually pop out, so she sent her other appendage that can attack at the moment and that was her tail. It wasn't one where it could suck the life-force of the opposition, but its sharp end could do some serious damage to an unsuspecting victim.

Just as it was going to pierce his skin, she felt something soft but strong hold onto her tail. Looking down with great effort, she saw his red tail that intervened! His red tail wrapped around hers and constrained it as well. She felt as if she was being wrung out by a constrictor snake!

"This is getting old, lets get of here 18."

"Yeah, these kids put up quite the fight."

Being the machines that they were, they were able to calculate the best escape route even when bombarded with ki techniques. Their brains worked similarly to each other so they were in sync. Although it was a good and creative technique, with weak firepower, they were never going to win.

"Go 18."

"Don't tell me what to do."

Even though she said that she still went to start their plan. Their technique resembled a bolas, a throwing weapon with two balls at the end with a rope connecting them, usually entrapping others by their legs.

Whenever they tried to sever that rope, which was a weak but buoyant string of ki, they would get bombarded to no end similar to the situation when they would try to go up. This technique was meant for one person, otherwise, how could they prevent them from escaping and protect their cord?

18 dashed up to try her best to get out of the encirclement, and naturally, the two kids both focused their shots upward to stop her. 17 saw the opening and dashed down towards their rope to cut it down.

They noticed what they were trying to do and Gohan switched his firing to 17 alleviating pressure from 18. This, however, didn't alert the two kids but actually made them smile. With each Android only dealing with half of the firepower, they were able to use brute strength to get out. 17 was able to barely sever the line when Bulla opted to aim at him to ignoring 18. But she was too late.

With their line severed the two balls and their momentum started to go in the direction that they were facing when they were cut at momentous speed.

"Heh, kids thought they got us."

The two went in completely opposite directions and didn't stop anytime soon. Both of the kids still had their hands in the turrets and both of them shot at 17 who was still in the middle.

He smirked and floated up a little leveling with 18 letting the two ki blast clash with each other midair.

"You thought that would get me?"

"No!" They both said the line at the same time making 17 confused. If that blast wasn't met for him, then what was it used for?

The two ki blast that connected with each other and stayed with each other where they met as they also went back to the spheres at light speed. The two ki's made another rope!

It didn't even take a millisecond for this rope to be stretched to its limits rocketing both spheres towards the center. It didn't end there, the two kids even use a Kamehameha wave to propel them faster.

Unable to react to the massive speed both androids got crushed with their backs against each other. Such a huge impact and acceleration! It did incredible damage to the interior and exterior of the androids. Even the kids' multilayered dense ki spheres started to crack like an egg until finally breaking allow all participants to free fall to the ground.

Landing on the ground on their two feet, the androids crashed just a few feet away from them.

"Nice! Hopefully, we didn't break them." Giving each other a high five, they were given explicit orders not to do too much damage since they were fighting against their will. It seems they did the right amount to knock them out but not irreparable injuries.

"Break them? Think about our situation! We broke our balls..."

"..."

Merely 30 seconds have passed since he transformed and 21 already felt like she was going to die. Now Goku could keep squishing her but with the genes of Majin Buu of the future, she would not die anytime soon.

Throwing her in the air he prepared a Kamehameha of epic proportions. 10x its usual power if you will. After being constrained for so long, 21 felt paralyzed still unable to move her arms or circulate her ki.

"Kamehameha!" A blast of ki, red in color, came barreling towards here. The sheer power of it indicated that it would incinerate her on the spot leaving no room to revive.

As she saw her life flash before her eyes. she was only a teenager for goodness sake! She was too young to die!

Her whole body felt like it wasn't hers to control and she felt the breeze of the air. Abruptly, that breeze got stronger and turned to wind pelting her face. Opening her eyes, she saw that she was actually flying towards Cell who had his hand in the air covered in a slight red glow.

Telekinesis!

Arriving before Cell, she was gently placed down next to him. She could barely speak.

"T-Thank you, Cell-hurk!"

She couldn't even speak a single sentence before Cell's tail pierced her stomach.

"I've never seen this form before! Haha! I can feel SO MUCH POWER!"

His tail gobbled up giant chunks of her ki and nearly finished her ki reserves in a second.

"HAHAHA!"

His power and aura skyrocketed deepening its shade to a dark purple. His overall tone became darker and his eyes that were already wild transformed black with the same yellow pupils.

As said before, the energy he absorbed multiplied within itself leaving the combined ki reserves bigger than both of them had previously. For the reason why they didn't do this earlier...this is the reason.

"You are useless to me now, I thank you for your service, however. Without you, I would have never been able to reach this level of power. Now be a good animal and keep producing ki for me to absorb."

Cell threw 21 through the hole that was busted by 21 herself into the lab and into the Energy Containment that housed the other entities that had their power sucked.

Goku looked over in the direction of the other battles. The kids were finished with their battle but looking past them, he saw 16 on the ground roughed up with smoke coming out of somewhere.

"Kids, take the androids to Bulma, I will finish here."

"Uh ok."

The battlefield was empty now, ready for Goku to unleash his full strength.

"Son Goku I will take my revenge now! After all that humiliation that I was forced to take! I finally have more power than you! Truly, this was inevitable!"

"We know, you are a typical supervillain. You don't have to steal literally everything from them from the monologues to the plot. Let's just get this over with."

Both of them ran towards each other, the earth-shaking from every one of their steps. Goku had a smile on his face, as he won the first exchange with a fist cracking Cell's cheek.

'Now this is the life!'
