Chapter11: Destined encounter

The hull of the ship in which Shirogane and Aro were entrapped erupted and with it the butcher was sent flying through the red empire's expansive fleet, destroying almost half of their ships. 

But how?, who saved the young warriors? 

The butcher slammed against a large piece of meteorite scrap, which would have been used to create the empire's weapons. 

Using this Surak launched himself towards the the main command ship, although almost completely destroyed the top side was almost unharmed.

Thanks to this Surak grasped hold of his emperor's ship and pulled himself onto it's top side. 

Wanting to see who could send him so far in such a short amount of time, the butcher searched and searched until to his surprise one of the warrior twins stood at the ship's wrecked hull. 

That twin is kenta sasine. 

Kenta spoke franticly "you two your okay right?, Shirogane if you're okay get ready to fight". 

Naga appeared out of the smoke and instantly created a whip made of raw zeon energy. 

The sudden creation of energy alerted Kenta.

Without holding anything back Kenta appeared behind Naga and shattered her whip, he followed this by flinging her downwards into the far depths of space. 

But Naga didn't let this put any halt to her assault, as she charged and released energy into her curse mark allowing her to enter the form known as uncontrollable power one, trading her control for strength. 

She then announced with anger "I will use you brutal warrior as a catapult to launch myself into the rank of general", following this was the creation of her major release titan zeon whips. 

Kenta encountered her whips smashing through each one until he finally reached Naga in which he spoke softly "I heard your announcement earlier, so what is the reason you wish for such a title?". 

Naga dropping all her movements, letting herself float freely through space answered "I hate you all, why did my family have to die just because you didn't enjoy each other's company?". 

Kenta saddened by her answer responded "I also hate everyone involved in our home worlds destruction including myself, but if I do not live on who will protect the survivors?". 

Surak made his return ignoring Kenta's presence he targeted only Shirogane and Aro, who were left weakened by their previous encounters. 

Bearing his sickle in hand Surak viscously slashed at both of his targets until eventually catching Shirogane's chest causing it to gush with blood and the young warrior made an agonising cry just before Aro was dealt a similar blow. 

Shirogane's howl of pain alerted kenta who immediately activated the technique blood rush, allowing him to appear almost instantly between Shirogane and the butcher.

Kenta his face enraged and full wrath bellowed "that is my son you just attacked", immediately after speaking Kenta struck his first hit against Surak forcefully pushing him further away from Shirogane.

The two zeons faced off as their aura's clashed in a tug of war Kenta thinking himself to be the stronger of them was not worried but... 

Even though his aura had won the battle something was off. 

Surak swooped down below Kenta taking hold of his lower leg, which snapped it almost instantly. 

And in a single second the brutal warrior's instincts had proven that they should have been trusted.  

Surak laughed as he told Kenta of his rare ability "hey brutal warrior you fought in the great zeon war so you should know what gave each side the advantage..., it was the rare ability of the overload zeons a power not even you or your brother could match". 

Kenta regenerated his ankle and laughed confidently as he responded "so what you're trying to tell me is that you're a overload zeon, well that would definitely explain as to why your strength is so overwhelming?". 

Surak overjoyed and intoxicated with excitement shouted "that's right", following his words was another strike to Kenta but this time Surak tore straight through Kenta's gut. 

Surak relentless in his pursuit to kill Kenta took hold of Kenta's arms and snapped them at their joints. 

Now dangling and unable to free himself Kenta awaited for any chance he could get to heal himself, instead he was met with the opposite as he was tossed straight down slamming directly into Naga. 

Naga forced both herself and her foe up only to hear Kenta ask "so if I told you my goal is to kill Uzunami what would you do?". 

Naga responded cautiously "if you could kill him then id join you and your son but I don't believe you can". 

Kenta activated the fourteenth ability regenerating his whole body only to deactivate it almost instantly. 

Kenta whispered "I am no chosen one I'm not even anything special I am only here to make the next generation into something special they're the chosen ones". 

Surak lifted his hand up into the air and without any restraint he released released a ton of overload energy to create a meteor made of overload energy.

Glowing many different shades of vibrant green the meteor sat spiralling in the butcher's palm. 

Surak then proceeded to mercilessly toss the meteor into a descent straight towards Kenta and his own comrade Naga. 

Kenta spoke his posture strong and his voice calm "then let me show you Naga that I can kill Uzunami", Kenta then activated another technique known as gene unlock. 

This technique allows the user's energy genes to absorb any energy but at the cost of their life energy, this technique's activation is also on a limited amount of time which for Kenta rests just above ten minutes. 

Gene unlock allowed Kenta to absorb the ton of overload energy used by Surak, infusing his body with overload energy for the duration of his technique. 

But there is one major risk to this, a secret ability of the curse mark which only effects raw zeons with the overload mutation means that they can stop the constant decay which their energy causes, but Kenta is a raw zeon with a divine specialisation so while he uses this overload energy his body will constantly decay. 

So the real battle now truly begins between the overload infused Kenta and the overload zeon Surak.

The brutal warrior immediately knew that their battle was about to endanger all those near them so with that in mind he leapt from the rubble in which he once stood. 

Using his borrowed strength Kenta grasped hold of Surak digging his fingers under the skin of the butcher's shoulder. 

With this almost unshakable hold Kenta soared above his allies, dragging Surak to the minimum safe distance. 

Surak showing his immensely high pride claimed "so you now think yourself a overload zeon? do you really think that is enough to beat me?". 

Kenta remained silent as he entered the form known as uncontrollable power three. 

Kenta's eyes became a dominant ocean blue while his aura lit up becoming impure and unstable, his body with the added decay of the overload energy ripped apart revealing most of his flesh and even some of his bones. 

Now unexpectedly Kenta rips his hand out of Surak's shoulder breaking the bone while also using the sixth ability he teleports.

Vanishing from sight only to appear seconds later behind Surak. 

Following this Kenta rushed to forcefully land a significant blow to Surak's spine severing his cord, though this is not as significant as it seems as it can be healed eventually, but not in time for Kenta's next attack. 

The brutal warrior once again vanishes from sight until appearing just above Surak, continuing his assault Kenta plummeted down until slamming into the beast known as Surak. 

This sent both warriors into a descent until they reached their original fighting spot, but as soon as Kenta sensed the auras of his comrades he took a unyielding hold of Surak's monstrous body only to toss him into a ascent. 

Surak now in the perfect position for Kenta's next release, Kenta flings his right arm backwards while infusing raw zeon energy into it creating the release known as dominant fist. 

The brutal warrior throws his charged fist but Surak is over a few hundred meters away or at least he was, using the sixth curse within the curse mark Kenta is able to teleport to anywhere he has been before. 

But that is not all the release Kenta is about to connect is not just a dominant fist it is a roaring dominant fist meaning it has enough power to destroy an object the size of the moon. 

Kenta's fist full of roaring unstable energy connects directly with Surak's chest breaking it apart and almost tearing straight through his heart...

But just before that could happen Surak uses a move known as overload pulse which formed multiple rings around his forearm, thanks to this Surak was able to push away everything that surrounds him including Kenta. 

The move type pulse creates a build up of energy in the user's forearm that build up of energy turns into three rings, that once shot push away everything that is in the same direction they're shot in. 

Surak heals his chest and roars with enjoyment while he proudly spreads his body out "wow you really can fight but your turn just ended and now it is my turn to end this game". 

The race known as raw zeons are a warrior race that have two variations these are divine and chaos. 

Divine zeons are more skilled and efficient in energy usage and control, where as the chaos zeons are more fierce and rely on their immense strength to keep up with their divine counterparts.

But there is one other variation one that can be born in either type other variation whether it be divine or chaos, this variation is known as overload. 

The overload zeons are powerful just by themselves and can dominate in almost any type of fight even outnumbered, but with the addition of the curse mark just like any other zeon their power is more then doubled. 

But overload zeons struggle to use all the different abilities stored within their curse so they found their own way to use the curse mark this was in the third ability known as imperial rage. 

Using this curse Surak entered a form which rivals Genshi's divine one this form is known as overload one. 

The butcher's muscles exploded with luminous green energy, his hair tripled in length as it turned into many shades of green, his body now constantly pulsing, his breath heavy and although he was in constant agony powered by both his overload energy and curse mark Surak seemed to have became an unstoppable beast.

But now not even the curse mark may hold back the decay in which the overload energy causes so now both beasts must suffer the life threatening decay of overload energy. 

Surak threw himself forwards his speed accelerating until he eventually broke down the distance between him and Kenta.

Without any stop to his constant acceleration Surak grabbed hold of Kenta's face until he plummets into a piece of debris.

Which was followed by the relentless pummelling against Kenta's body breaking through the asteroid and continuing onwards through the depths of space. 

Surak's body now at least three times the size of Kenta and with him up close it daunts on Kenta just how much danger he is in, with each strike Kenta edges ever closer death.

Surak's assault suddenly stops but is followed by an enormous surge of energy which Kenta sensed putting his arm up to block the attack. 

But Kenta did not expect the release to shatter the bones in his arms completely.  

And now unable to lift his battered arms up Kenta is almost at death's door. 

Surak flings his right arm back tensing it causing the skin to tear off his bicep and reveal the ever growing muscle, Surak roars with warning "Kenta this is it if you have any more tricks now would be the time to use them". 

But Kenta floats his body completely dormant awaiting his death... 

Surak says in despair "what a pity and here I thought you could be a challenge". 

Surak throws his final blow another roaring overload fist but it doesn't connect with Kenta no it connects with Shirogane! 

A few minutes earlier "hey Naga is it? that doesn't matter you can use those tentacle things to get me over to where they are right?" Shirogane said in hopes of finding a way to enter the fight. 

Naga answered not taking her eyes off the opposing beasts "I could you're right but your injured so really... what good could you do?". 

Shirogane stood strong and claimed his hand on his chest and his eyes full of hope "I could help change this fight around". 

Now at present time, Shirogane took Surak's attack which almost killed him but thanks to a few remaining embers of his curse fragmented power he managed to heal all of the wounds dealt to him in a instant. 

Surak shouted callously "so now you're gonna let your son fight your battle for you oh great brutal warrior?". 

Shirogane cried back "hey you better not hold anything back and the same goes for you too Brutal warrior I'm gonna need you". 

Hearing his son speak and ready to fight helped Kenta remember just who he is so Kenta stood beside his son ready to fight against the beast known as Surak. 

Thanks to the few seconds bought by Shirogane Kenta was able to heal his shattered bones but this brought his technique to a closer end. 

Kenta struck a fighting pose as he whispered "son I know it's my fault as to why you cant use your curse properly but for now just back me up, I promise to make up for my previous mistakes after this is over and done with". 

Surak exploded or more accurately he created a explosion of overload energy disappearing from both of the warriors eyes until... 

He appeared out of the smoke grasping hold of Shirogane's left arm and tearing it off. 

Causing great levels of despair in Shirogane who flailed around in agony until later regaining his composure but it was already too late. 

Kenta at the first sight of seeing his son being in horrific pain was sent into a mindless rage, racing after Surak Kenta delivered blow after blow but not a single one left its mark. 

Surak finally bored of this encounter decided to end it, so he struck Kenta in his gut with relentless force stunning him, which allowed the butcher to lift Kenta up by his right arm.

But as Surak was about to butcher the brutal warrior Naga created her titanic sized whips dragging Shirogane to safety while also pulling Kenta away too which resulted in the brutal warrior losing his arm. 

Shirogane ready to fight almost sprung into death's embrace once again until he was held back by the heavily weakened Aro. 

Naga worried for her own safety questioned Kenta "are you sure you can win against him even now?". 

Kenta gasping for air as he regenerated his torn arm responded gradually "if I am being honest with you no, that energy I absorbed from him earlier has faded now and it doesn't look like he's running out of steam anytime soon". 

But then came someone new but are they a ray of hope or another bringer of death?

Chapter11.1: A long awaited reunion 

His aura cruel and his glare horrifying Surak returned back to his base state dispersing all his once infused energy almost instantly. 

Following this came the newly arrived warrior's orders "we do not have any more time for the spare parts someone has been keeping the empire's members at bay for the past ten minutes, so Surak as my big brother will you go sort our new problem out". 

Surak without hesitation spoke his voice no longer full of immense rage but kindness "of course I will, I'll always protect you little brother". 

Kenta screamed as he threw his body forwards, causing his aura to explode sending it rippling through the depths of space around him. 

This caused Surak's little brother to look upon Kenta and in shock of seeing someone familiar he spoke "actually big brother I think I can trust you to handle that task without me, I will deal with the warrior twin Kenta sasine and meat up with you later".  

Once the warrior had finished talking Surak left and in a instant he was no where to be seen. 

Kenta roared "Uzunami!". 

Uzunami glared down at Kenta his eyes piercing through all, this was followed by his twisted calm voice saying "it has been a long time Kenta I thought you would have let go of that grudge by now". 

Kenta his body trembling answered back while his face struggled to control the overwhelming amounts of fierce rage "your one to talk you bastard, you have hated my family from the day we met and I don't even know why yet that doesn't matter anymore there can be no excuse for what you did back on kronen". 

Uzunami's slender body type may seem like a disadvantage, as you would think it would mean he has less muscle but in actuality his muscles have been condensed down to fit into his almost skeleton like body.

And thanks to Uzunami's slender appearance it makes it difficult to tell where to target him for an attack and it becomes even worse when he activates his god mark and takes on the appearance of an even more slender body. 

Kenta throws a couple punches but each one misses or rather Uzunami slithers between them both resulting in the perfect counter dealing a significant amount of damage to Kenta's body. 

Kenta's blood rush technique now deactivates due to his extreme amount of blood loss but not all hope is lost for the brutal warrior... 

Kenta says with full confidence in his abilities "I hate you Uzunami with everything I have and more but I also know just how strong you are but that doesn't mean I'm just gonna give up, do not forget I am also one of the warrior twins just like Genshi, so I have been preparing everything I have for this encounter". 

After speaking Kenta's aura explodes as he releases a ton of his remaining life energy into both his body and the curse mark in which after he stacks a form on top of the already active uncontrollable power three, the form in which he stacks is imperial times twenty, making his power level over ten times his original. 

But even with this massive jump in power the red emperor did not show a single ounce of fear as he released all his energy into both his god mark and curse mark entering the form full mutation changing his body into that of Azul's and stacking the form known as full control. 

And now the true fight commences!, the fight which will become to be known as the destined encounter. 

Throwing attack after attack each warrior relentless their hatred for one another carrying their bodies past their limits and even further then that. 

But even surpassing their limits was not enough to gain a edge over the other as not a single attack made by either warrior had dealt serious injury to the other, so it seemed this battle would last for an eternity. 

But Uzunami sought to end this quickly so with that in mind he activated a technique named body laser, the technique allows the user to place lasers all over their body but the size is determined by how many lasers there are. 

So Uzunami created one hundred lasers covering the entirety of his body and there size is one meter each. 

Now Kenta only harmed himself when he attempted to strike Uzunami's body, it was as if he was punching a wall made of knives.

So the technique put a stop to Kenta's assault, while only furthering the damage Uzunami's assault will deal. 

Uzunami his attacks relentless created a blitz of many bladed attacks until Kenta's body was left dripping constantly with deep red blood. 

In preparation Uzunami put a stop to his attacks for a short moment. 

And in this moment Kenta gradually began to lose even more blood and that gradual dripping became a constant gushing.

With this Kenta's head became light and his eyes began to close, on the verge of collapse Kenta struggled to keep himself awake...

Uzunami with victory in sight combined the lasers into just two each one fifty meters long, resting on either hand.

Uzunami spoke with an inconceivable amount of hate "after I put you in the grave ill kill your son Shirogane just like I did Asha, but don't worry ill seek and wipe out the rest of your family once I'm finished with system seventeen". 

Kenta lit up with rage but his body could not respond as he mumbled the words "do not mention my wife's name you demon". 

Shirogane struggled to break free of Aro's hold eventually pushing Aro back but Naga reacted quickly as she caught Shirogane in a bind made of her whips. 

And after she hastily shouted after "what are you gonna do?, you don't even know how to use your curse mark so don't you dare think you have a chance against one of the five mutation gods". 

Aro spoke with sorrow and despair "I hate this just as much as you do neither you or I is capable of aiding your farther in battle, so accept that it is up to him to decide all of our fates". 

The helpless looked upon the broken warrior as Uzunami raised his arm in preparation of delivering the final blow. 

Kenta mumbled once again "dam it why won't you move... body move". 

"Hey brother why are you able to use the arconic one curse ability and I'm not?". 

Genshi responded "because I value the control necessary to master the curse mark to higher level then most of our race". Kenta laughed as he thought to himself "what a time to be thinking of our teen years eh brother I bet you would kill me if you could see what I'm about to do but hey... to hell with your control!, I'm a beast just like our farther so why should I pretend to be something I'm not!". 

Kenta's body began to tear its self apart in a rampage of destruction. 

Kenta's arms split from their sockets followed by the bones tearing through his skin, but his physical body no longer mattered as he had no more stamina to use it. 

So next came the constant flashing of dominant blue and sky blue energy followed by the sound of his heart beat drumming.

Not a single person knew what was happening but in these few seconds Kenta had became unrecognisable and Uzunami's lasers had been destroyed, forcing him to back away. 

Next came a roar of excitement as he became empowered by his new found ability, this was followed by Kenta shouting "hey Uzunami you and my brother can have all the control you want but I've earned my right to stand among you so called gods", or at least Kenta tried to say this but it only came out as a animalistic roar.

Uzunami fled as fast as he could to make a distance of a few thousand meters after being drenched in a unfamiliar emotion this emotion was fear.

Uzunami gave activation to another of his techniques named meteor drones, these drones shoot meteor sized bullets at any target endlessly and the bullets set blaze to anything they hit. 

So Uzunami creates two of these drones thinking Kenta to be almost paralysed he thought it best to turn this into a ranged battle.

But Kenta's hands appeared out of no where and latched onto the drones and soon followed the appearance of Kenta himself who then crushed the technique. 

Uzunami soon learnt after one glance of Kenta's new appearance that his injures had in fact not been healed not one bit, but instead he had torn his arms from their sockets and is using energy to move and control them and with this Kenta is able to move around freely even with a near paralysed body. 

Kenta can also change the distance in which his energy is spread between his torn arms and himself.

Kenta's drumming heart beat continued to ring deafening Uzunami so Kenta roared as loud as he could but the red emperor could not hear him and the only response given was "you are no warrior your a disaster". 

Appearing through the gaps of asteroids and the broken fleet of ships was a green luminescent light that kept on vanishing and appearing every few seconds.

Kenta recognised this as a sign that Surak will soon return.

So Kenta grabbed Aro and Naga who still had hold of Shirogane and he mumbled a few words which were barely pronounced correctly "Uzunami I may not be able to settle my hate today but trust me the next time we meet I will put you in the grave". 

The group soon fled the empire's current home location, leaving Uzunami behind who now must deal with the other problem currently being managed by Surak.
