Chapter 80
We were still training with Whis on Beerus' planet in a similar s.p.a.ce where the atmosphere was the same as the Hyperbolic Time chamber but under stringent rules. We were told to not use any transformations while in that particular s.p.a.ce or we will be heavily overburdened. To test out the limits and the rules I transformed into my True Saiyan form. I felt it was definitely stronger than my base form. I knew from there that my True Saiyan form was a more evolved or maybe devolved, depending how one looks at it, but more powerful version of my base form. If anything it should be closer to those of the ancestors of the original planet Sadala of the Saiyans, maybe…closer to Yamos.h.i.+, the original Super Saiyan G.o.d. Unlike Goku and Vegeta I still retained my tail the only difference between us. While in this s.p.a.ce that Whis created, I refined my True Saiyan form and moved by the ebb and flow of energy to not waste energy with unnecessary movements as I was taught with Kenbunshoku no Haki (Color of Observation).
While training, I kept track of time in order to be better prepared for Freeza's arrival. I kicked and punched while image training and picturing Golden Freeza. Through the anime and the movie I saw his movements, until now I couldn't begin to fathom the speed and power of Freeza until I feel it for the first time. In my mental sparring I put so much focus into the image that I feel and take the hits the mental image of Freeza gives me. Goku shakes me from my training.
Goku: Oy, Sage, snap out of it!
Sage: Goku-san, what is it? Why did you stop my training?
Vegeta: Training?! You were making good smooth movements but when you were imagining taking hits you were actually bleeding and bruised.
My eyes flared up as I answered.
Sage: What's the point of training if I can't take the pain? (I calmed myself down) Sorry I was just trying to gauge this Freeza's power from your description and the apparent power up.
Goku and Vegeta looked at each other then nodded.
Goku: Hey Sage. What is up with your eyes?
Vegeta: I have never heard of a Saiyan have those types of eye before. Different colored sure but yours has an eerie power emanating from them.
Sage: (While touching my face) Oh, these! These eyes were a reward from a defeated enemy. I can use various powers with them. It lets me manipulate the mind, s.p.a.ce, time and the elements.
I can see that they were interested in my eyes but only for a little while. Time pa.s.sed slowly in the s.p.a.ce as we were training until Whis pulled us out.
Whis: It
We arrived on Earth only to meet a small army of Freeza's henchmen. Since the other Z-Fighters were already aware of Freeza coming, they were getting rid of most of the henchmen. The only ones left were a few hundred henchmen, Tagoma, Sorbet and Freeza.
Goku: Let's leave the goons to the others.
Sage: I have a better idea. These f.u.c.king flies.
I experimented with the henchmen since their death meant nothing. I used Haoshoku no Haki but an extreme amount. This world contains stronger beings than in the One Piece universe, so a regular burst of Haoshoku no Haki would make the weaker beings faint. If an extreme amount is used, wouldn't it be possible to kill them with it? My experiment was simple, use Haoshoku no Haki at an extreme level, strong enough to kill off the weaker ones. As my Color of the Supreme king spread out in a burst, all the henchmen were dropping out of the sky. Bodies littered the ground as Tagoma and Freeza were the remaining 2 left.
Krillin: What the h.e.l.l just happened?
Tien s.h.i.+nhan: I don't know, Sage just let a savage burst of aura out and Freeza's goons started to drop. I can't sense their life force. Are they dead? Can you tell Master Ros.h.i.+? Or you Gohan?
Ros.h.i.+: They are definitely dead. As if the reaper himself touched them.
Gohan: Master Ros.h.i.+ is right s.h.i.+nhan-san. I don't know what Sage-san did but he took all of them but Freeza and the other guy out.
Sage: Flies always flock to a piece of s.h.i.+t. Now to p.o.o.per scooper this guy.
Freeza: Every time I come here more and more monkies show up!
Sage: And the piece of s.h.i.+t talks. Goku-san, Vegetsan, I got first dibs right?
Goku: Remember to leave some for us.
Sage: Didn't I let the little pebble s.h.i.+t live for you guys?
Vegeta: He is not worth it and you know it.
Tagoma: Talking down to me like I'm nothing, you will rue…
I flashed to Tagoma and flicked his head off before he could finish. I wanted to fight Freeza not hear an underling curse us with his weak a.s.s power. I gestured at Freeza with "Let's go!" finger motions. Freeza's chair exploded as he got off. I don't know what made Freeza so confident that he didn't take his final transformation right away let alone his Golden form. Let me take his tail to see if he still feels any different.
Sage: Since none of you cared might as well get rid of him. Well kitchen appliance, your move. (I threw Freeza's tail back at him)
Freeza was furious. Finally he took me seriously and transformed into his final form. I stayed in my base form and clashed with Freeza. We grappled hands.
Freeza: Since you are with Goku and Vegeta, do you really think that you can take me on without turning Super Saiyan?
Sage: So far you have yet to prove me otherwise.
I pull Freeza in close and knee him in the gut. He tried to whip me with his tail but forgot about my own. He dropped the hand lock and went for a high kick but missed. In this fight I was going to use Freeza as a test dummy to awaken Migatte no Gokui (Autonomous Ultra Instinct). Kenbunshoku no Haki was in full effect as all his attacks were hitting nothing but air. I moved as little as possible to avoid unnecessary movement. I internalized my aura keep my base form in top shape. Freeza took notice of what I was doing and called me out on it. I guess this is why he was called a genius among the frost demons of s.p.a.ce.
Freeza: Not taking Tagoma seriously is one thing, but using it on me…I will teach you the folly of your ways. HHAAAAAA!!!!
Golden Freeza finally emerged. His power output was truly great. Other than Goku, Vegeta and Beerus I had no one else to compare to. At this level True Super Saiyan will be enough to kill him but then my experiment will come to an end. If I wanted to prolong the fight I needed to take hits even though I would otherwise dodge, block, parry or counter. With Freeza flaring up in power I don't need to see just feel out his movements but it would alert him that I am not taking him seriously. If he were to find out he would desperately destroy the Earth like in the original.
Sage: Since you went so far to show us your new trick I will show you my own. HMPH!!!!
To keep it on par and him none the wiser I transformed into my Golden True Super Saiyan, a level below the Red True Super Saiyan. Even still, Freeza has never seen this form so it is safe to say he won't be able to tell if I am taking him seriously. As long as Goku and Vegeta keep their mouths shut I won't end my experiment. Let the a.s.s beating begin.
