Substitute God Of Destruction

Darc was still looking upwards where Kakarot waited for Gohan to attack him. And Gohan delivered straight away. His mind was completely blank because of losing his daughter. He attacked extremely violently without a care in the world.

His energy fluctuated immensely and when he reached Kakarot he started a plain and simple beating on him.

Kakarot was obviously surprised by the unbelievable power that he felt from Gohan now. The attacks he received and blocked were very powerful. And even though Gohan bulged in mass so much, he was still extremely fast.

All that let Kakarot´s smile disappear and his concentration started to come back.

"Looks like your new little transformation is no joke. And I can feel that weird energy coming from you."

"AAAAAH!!" Gohan didn't even respond anymore and just trashed around trying to pulverize Kakarot.

"Tsk. The downside to it seems to be losing your mind to rage."

Both of them started to attack each other with no care in the world. When they started to head straight at Darc he dodged away and kept his distance from this fight.

`Damn it...Gotta think fast. Right...`

*Supreme Kai!* Darc called out telepathically towards Shin.

*Huh!? What? Who is this?* asked a surprised Shin.

*I am called Darc. I am the one near Kakarot and Gohan right now. I know you are watching this fight from the Kaioshin planet. I need your help*

*Our help? But we can't do anything even if we wanted to. Goku going insane is the worst thing that could have happened.* interrupted the old Kai. He also followed the conversation.

*WJust answer me some questions. What happened to the Dragonballs?*

*The Namekian Dragonballs disappeared just like the ones on earth after Goku beat Omega Shenron.*

*Dammit, then the Super Dragonballs are probably the same...*

*Super Dragonballs?*

*Hear me out. I will send a copy of myself to you. Then you teleport with him to Beerus. Did you understand?*

*What! Beerus? No, wait -*

But before the old Kai could say something, Darc used his multiform technique to split into another Darc and let this copy of himself teleport away to the Kaioshin planet.

---

Appearing in front of the Old Kai and Shin as well as Kibito, Darc immediately teleported away with them towards Beerus his planet with clear use of KaiKai.

"What are you doing!", screamed old Kai.

"This is our only chance to help them down there. If even the God of Destruction can't help, then we are really going to be doomed.", explained Darc and started walking towards Beerus his home.

"What is a God of Destruction?", asked Shin at this moment being completely confused.

"No, I don't mean that. Darc, there hasn't been a God of Destruction for thousands of years now."

Darc stopped his steps and looked back with a somewhat shocked face at the Old Kai. "What did you say!? How can that be? There should always be a God of Destruction no matter what! Who then sealed you in that sword!?"

Now the Old Kai looked solemn and sweat a little bit. "Sure, it was Beerus that sealed me. But I already checked on things after we had a universal meeting again. It was right after Buu was beaten. It was then that I received news that Beerus was eradicated by Zeno-sama."

"Beerus got erased? Don't tell me he messed up in that dispute? Then who took over?" Darc frowned. His plan to get help from Beerus now went down the drain completely.

"Noone did. It surprised me as well to hear that there would be no God of Destruction for now. I am not sure what Zeno-sama was thinking at that time."

"DAMN IT!" Darc became angry and just hit something near himself. What he didn't think about was that what he hit was actually a person.

And that person actually stopped his punch with his index finger.

"Huh?" Feeling the resistance, Darc inspected what stopped his attack and saw someone familiar. "Whis!?"

"Yes, that is my name. Attacking me so suddenly. Someone here seems to be very agitated at the moment? Maybe you should get a relaxing tea?", smiled Whis with an innocent smile.

"Ah, Whis-sama. It is good to see you again." The Old Kai was also surprised and greeted this superior of his.

"Supreme Kai. It is also good to see you are doing fine. You even managed to leave the sword.", snickered Whis a little.

"Yes."

"Who is this?", asked Shin now and looked at Whis in confusion. He was still not to able to follow this discussion.

"This is Whis. He is the angel of Universe 7. That is our Universe. And also the attendant of our previous God of Destruction."

Just when Old Kai started to explain some things to Shin, Darc started to talk with Whis as well.

"How? Should you not be sleeping at the moment? After all, Beerus is...dead?" Darc wanted to know why Whis was still awake while there was no GoD in this Universe.

"Hmm, it seems your body is emitting some destruction energy and that is why I have awoken. I have already watched your little fight on earth." He looked at his scepter and still could see the fight that is going on between Kakarot and Gohan.

Darc only stared at him for a while. "And can you help us out?"

"I am sorry, but I can't do that. We angels are only here to watch and guide."

Darc sighed at that answer. "Damn, then I need to return and get back to my original. Whis, asking Zeno to help out is also not an option, is it?"

"Not if you want the whole universe to be erased, I am afraid."

"What!? You were planning to ask Zeno? Are you out of your mind?", lamented the Old Kai from the sidelines after hearing Zeno´s name.

Dar started to frown and thought hard about how to fix this. Should he go to the other Universes?

"Hmm...May I?" Whis asked them but Darc didn't know what he wanted and looked at him slightly confused. Whis just stretched out his scepter and touched his forehead with it.

"Ah, I see now why you are here. Very interesting. Now, if that is the case, then there is actually one option you may have."

"Did you just read my memories?", questioned Darc with a frown.

"Not exactly. I just retrieved something that my other self from your time implemented inside you, hehe."

"What is that option you are talking about?"

"It is very simple. Just become the God of Destruction. That would give you enough power to handle that Kakarot on earth."

"What? No, I cant. Besides I am not even from this timeline."

"No, no. You are misunderstanding something. You don't need to become one forever. Just for the time that you spend here will be plenty enough. And you only need to become a God of Destruction in training."

"That is still not really an option. I am still not strong enough to beat him even if I use destruction energy."

"That is where you are wrong. Don't you know about the destruction mode?"

"Destruction mode?" Darc raised a brow in confusion now.

"Oh my. So you used destruction energy without knowing that? Well, the destruction mode is a state where the destruction energy empowers your body. That is actually the true state and form of a God of Destruction."

Darc actually remembered what he was talking about. It was probably the transformation Toppo was using in the tournament of power.

"I see. I think I know what you are referring to. And how does it work? How am even becoming a God of Destruction in training?"

"Very simple." Whis held his scepter in front of himself and started reciting something. "I, Whis, the angel of universe 7 hereby declare thee, Darc, to become the next God of Destruction. Do you abide by the rules and fulfill your duties as the God of Destruction until your duty is over?" When Whis said those words a ball of purple energy appeared in front of Darc.

Whis only nodded then. "Now it is up to you to decide. If you touch that energy and accept you will receive the energy. But do remember that your life will be linked to the Supreme Kai´s at that moment. And that is only the energy for a candidate for the position. To become a full-fledged God of Destruction you would still need to pass a test by Zeno-sama. But this amount of energy should be enough for you to beat that Saiyan. And by the looks, you should decide fast."

Darc knew what he meant with that and without hesitation he grabbed that energy. "I accept."

And right at that moment when he accepted and touched the energy, it started to engulf him and entered his body.

----

Back at the earth, the fight between Kakarot and Gohan came to a slow end. Kakarot actually managed to reach his Super Saiyan 3 and now overpowered Gohan once again.

The original Darc could only interrupt them from time to time while getting his ass handed most of the time. So it ended up in him keeping watch with a bitter smile on his face. Then suddenly 4 people appeared beside him.

"Damn, that took long enough. Where is the cat?", asked a somewhat annoyed Darc his clone.

"Not coming. But you will know why soon." The clone of Darc melted back into the original and transferred every bit of memory it accumulated.

Darc only stayed silent while watching towards Kakarot.

"Fine, let's end this now." Darc charged right between Gohan and Kakarot.

"What? You still want to fight me after having gotten some breath back?", said a smug Kakarot.

"It´s over. You forgot about me too much and that will be your undoing. Just blame that to your genetics.", answered Darc. While he said that a still raging Gohan attacked him.

"Go to sleep, Gohan. I know your heart hurts but you will have to endure it." Darc smiled bitterly and swiftly dodged and appeared behind Gohan. Then, Darc, his whole Aura changed completely and violet energy burst out from him.

It even changed his eyes to a crimson red with his hair shining in darkish purple color.

His hand landed on Gohan´s neck and put him into an unconscious state transforming him back to base.

Darc then grabbed him and threw him over to Shin. Shin reacted and caught Gohan.

"What...is that..." Kakarot was now extremely vary of Darc. He knew that knocking out Gohan in that state was something not even he could do right now. "That energy...It is a lot like your black aura from last time but that clearly is not the same..."

Darc only stared at Kakarot and breathed in deeply and when he breathed out his energy flowed out even more, ripping his upper clothes in the process.

Now everyone could see the symbol on Darc his chest. it was the symbol that symbolized the activation of the energy of destruction. It mixed very well with his already preexistant tattoos from his Kaioken accident.

"Time to die, you bastard!" Darc charged at him.

Kakarot gritted his teeth and retaliated with some Ki-Blasts. But as soon as Darc dodged every attack easily he became somewhat nervous-

Then in close quarter, Darc caught one fist of Kakarot and immediately proceeded to punch Kakarot out of his Super Saiyan. Surprisingly one hit was actually not enough because this guy used Darc his defensive technique again.

So when one attack does not get his goal, the following ones will do the trick. So he continued with his barrage of hits.

But even then Kakarot was still not giving up. "I WILL NOT DIE!" With a massive eruption of energy, he actually transformed into his Super Saiyan 4 and got some distance from Darc.

Darc only became angrier with Kakarot struggling so much and spyking in power once more. "YES, YOU WILL! AND HERE IS HOW!!"

Darc moved back at him and kicked Kakarot upwards. Then he clasped his hands together at his waist to collect energy. "DESTRUCTION-KAMEHAME-HA!!"

The purple and black energy that was fired from him made a deafening sound and a shockwave traveled everywhere. Everything close to Darc started crumbling and disintegrating.

"Oh my.", commented Whis after seeing that attack and erected a barrier around himself and the other three near him. Then he tapped the ground with his scepter and teleported every living being still alive on earth away to another suitable planet. IN this case it being the Kaioshin world.

That is because at that moment everything was slowly destroyed. Even Darc made a disbelieving face of shock while firing his Kamehameha.

The only thing he could tell is that Kakarot was already destroyed and didn't even have a remotely slight chance to react. And with him, everything else that was remotely close to being alive was also pulverized.

That was actually not something he planned. The power of a God of Destruction was really frightening.

----

When the whole space around Darc slowly stabilized and he could see again he was still shocked. He even survived the supernova that took place after the earth exploded into smithereens and combined with his energy into a vortex of energy that just wanted to berserk outside into the universe. And that alone from the shockwave. He did not aim his attack at the earth but away from it and that still just destroyed everything.

Then he shook his head and sensed his comrade's energy. Luckily he could feel every else safe on some other planet. That is to say, the people that actually were still alive after Shenron his massacre.

So he instantly teleported to that place.

At his arrival, everyone looked at him. They were relieved to see him succeeding but then there were the people who still were sad about their loses. Lazuli lost Krillin. Gohan just now lost his daughter. It was really a mess.

Looking at them he could only sigh.

"Whis...Can you tell me about the locations of the Super Dragonballs? Do they still exist?"

Whis only looked at him for a short while and obeyed his request and browed his scepter. "There are four of them in our Universe and three in Universe 6. Are you going to collect them?"

"Yes, we need to fix this mess."

Gohan stopped grieving somewhat and looked up at Darc. "Do you mean we can still bring everyone back?"

Darc only stared at him. "It will depend on you all...If the other God of Destruction finds out we are stealing their Dragonballs we will probably end up in a war. So be prepared to fight for bringing back everyone and fixing all this mess that started after overusing the Dragonballs in the first place. And I am also going to warn you all right now. This will be the last time you will get to use them. I will destroy them after the deed is done. Do you understand?"

Gohan only clenched his fists. "I will do everything and accept every condition."

"Fine then." Darc looked at Whis again. "Then let's go and collect those wishing beads." Darc only placed a hand on Whis his shoulder. "You guys should start training. Shin, bring everyone to the planet of the god of destruction. I will join after we got our own Dragonballs. With your strength right now we need improvement."

With those last words, Whis used his scepter and traveled to the location of the first Dragonball.

Shin on the other hand obeyed and brought everyone that was willing to fight to the planet of destruction. That was Gohan, Trunks, Goten, Lazuli, Vegeta, Uub and Piccolo.
