Previously on Saiyan Conqueror Quest:


Upon learning of the Heeters from King Vegeta and after training the Prince, pushing him to the next level, Karn discovered a plot by the Tamaraneans to capture Ticho, half-Tamaranean daughter of their queen Komand'r. After helping Turles save his daughter and getting a partial confession and demonstration from one of the survivors of the plot before she was killed by her shadowy benefactor, presumably the advisor to Tamaran's throne called Kryat, Karn sent his eldest twins Tatsu and Tomi to Planet Azar to scout out the Tamaraneans and discover what they can, warned Broly of the threat so he could protect his wife, Komand'r's banished sister Koriand'r, then informed Cooler and King Cold of current events. And as we rejoin Karn, King Cold and Cooler have ended the telepathic link, leaving you standing on Raven's beach with your wife and the Guardian both standing by you.

“Well? What is it now?” your wife asks, her tone exasperated but also resolved, tired but not going to quit now.
“Nothing new. Just told Cooler and Cold everything.” you tell her, your wife visibly relaxing with a heavy sigh.
“Phew! I don't know how much more excitement I can take in one day.” she says, and as if on cue-

“Dad! Mom!” Karn Jr shouts, and you see it. Your wife's body tenses up as she turns, you tensing as well. But as your son flies over and you expand your ki sense, you feel that he's not alone. Confused and slightly worried with how the day's going, you look to your son. Only to see he's got a group of other Saiyans with him. A young girl around his age flying side-by-side with him, three others behind the two of them. And the girl's glowing aura matches his own as they fly down, the two Super Saiyans landing first. “Look! She did it!”

“H-Hello, General Karn. Meloka.” the girl says, clearly nervous. But your son's all excitement for his little friend, as the others land behind them. Also all looking up at you and your wife in awe.
“Isn't it cool? Now Zucchi and I match!” Junior says, wrapping an arm around the girl's shoulders and grinning.
“Zucchi, huh? Well done, Zucchi.” you say, the girl's eyes widening as you say her name. You then turn your attention on the others that flew down with your son, addressing them as well. “I'm sure you all can do it, if you put your minds to it and keep working hard.”

“We're gonna spar, to see just how strong she is like this!” Junior continues, and for a brief second you see a flash of worry across the new Super Saiyan's face. “Can you referee it for us?”

Well?

“You want me to ref? Sure thing kiddo.” you say with a grin, then raise your right hand. “Fighters, take your positions!”
“Yeah!” Junior shouts, leaping back from his friend and dropping into his fighting stance you've taught him. Zucchi nods to him, dropping into a more basic stance. Raising both arms up, elbows in, fists raised to just under her eyes with the backs of her hands towards your son as she almost crouches, bending her knees low. A defensive stance, not an aggressive one. “Let's go!”

“On my mark!” you call, glancing between them. “Fighters ready?”

You let the silence hang a moment, seeing both of them. How Junior's almost vibrating to blast off his feet and charge in, while Zucchi is more like a rock, standing firm, defensive and ready to meet his charge.

“GO!” you shout, dropping your hand. And, immediately, BOTH fighters charge forward. You'd thought Zucchi would defend, would wait for Junior to close in on her. But both fighters dash forward, Junior's right arm drawn back while Zucchi's arms are still up in her defensive stance. The two fighters close in, and your son strikes first. Swinging with a right, but it's a feint! He twists his hips, as if throwing a powerful, heavy opening swing. But then he reverses it into a left jab at her head. But Zucchi weaves, stepping in past his jab and firing a left uppercut right into his guts. Her blow lands clean, doubling your son over, gasping from the blow. Leaving his face wide open.
“HAAAA!” Zucchi shouts, following up her uppercut with a right straight to the face. Snapping Junior's head back, sending him flying.

“Woah!”
“She got him!”
“No way!”

The other spectating young Saiyans shout in astonishment as your son's blasted back, but he recovers swiftly. Flipping back onto his feet he charges in again, Zucchi also charging forward once more. This time your son doesn't try a feint, instead flippnig forward into a powerful right axe kick. Which Zucchi kicks off the ground, stepping aside and dodging. Using her step into a left jab at the right side of your son's head. Junior blocks this one with his right forearm, gritting his teeth as he withstands the blow.

“Tch!” HAAAA!” he retaliates with a right side kick, Zucchi bringing her left leg up. Blocking your son's kick that knocks her sliding back, only to trip and fall as she slides back on one leg. But she turns it into a roll, landing back on all fours as your son rushes in once more. Rising back to her feet, she takes her more defensive-looking guard, ready for your son's advance. But she doesn't just stand there, instead she begins weaving her upper body back and forth.

“Hmm?” you hum to yourself, watching as the young girl weaves her upper body in a figure-eight through the air as Junior charges forward. Blurring forward, but then stopping on a dime just outside her reach. His feint works, as she sees him coming and times his approach with a weaving heavy right hook. Only for her fist to swing through empty air, just missing your son as he stops short.
“GOTCHA!” he shouts excitedly, lunging in with a left jab that lands clean to the face. Snapping her head back, but she plants her feet, recovering and retaking her stance as the two start trading blows. Junior turns up the pressure and Zucchi returns it, the two weaving and throwing dozens of blows a second. But neither kid connects, Zucchi returning to that weaving pattern and throwing out wide hooks as your son throws straights, neither fighter connecting. That is until your son switches his technique, feinting high then dropping low. Spinning around with a sweeping back left kick, scything her legs out from under her.

“Woah?!” she exclaims as the blow steals her balance completely, Junior rising up into a right uppercut that lands clean. Slamming into her cheek, launching the girl straight into the air with his leaping blow. “GUUUH!”
“My turn!” Junior shouts, golden aura blazing as he dashes up after her. Launching once more into a fierce attack, but once more Zucchi recovers. Returning to her bobbing and weaving defense, your son's blows not landing. But neither do her return strikes either, your son's defenses holding firm.
“You ever seen someone fight like that?” your wife asks, floating up and hanging off your back, arms wrapped around your neck as she rests her chin on your head. “It's... Different.”

“Different's a good word for it. Reminds me of Camali, for some reason.” you reply, remembering going a round with the camel all those years ago after the siege. Realizing you'd never really watched what it does throughout the day, perhaps it has been teaching some of your people how a former champion like itself fights?
“HAAAAAA!” both children shout, their right fists slamming into one another's. The shock wave from their blow knocks the three other children their age over, who all shout in surprise and wonder at their friends' power. And with the clash both are knocked away from one another, floating in the air staring each other down. Your son, surprisingly, seemingly more tired than Zucchi as her breathing's more controlled. But you can see the strain in her face, as your son's back is currently to you.

Well? What now?

While I expected Junior to figure out the Peekaboo style's range, I wonder if Zucchi picked up on that. She'd do well to focus on trapping her opponents before closing in.
Why Ippo never did this when his biggest weakness was outfighters with stiff jabs, I'll never know.

You watch on silently as the two young children catch their breath, each studying the other. Zucchi watches your son for a second, her eyes widening in a sudden realization. And without hesitation they immediately narrow as she dashes in. As if realizing, for the first time, she's WINNING against him, that she could actually win this. Which catches your son by surprise, clearly not expecting her to charge in. He raises his arms defensively, but he's a beat too slow as she comes in guns blazing with a heavy right. Her blow rocks him, knocking him back. Leaving him wide open as she closes in, following it with a left uppercut to the guts once again. Your son gasps in pain, arms going down and wrapping around his guts. Leaving his face wide-open, Zucchi following her left with a right uppercut towards his jaw.

“You got him!”
“Finish it!”
“Junior, look out!”

The other kids shout, but your son sees it coming. And leaning his head to his left, her fist only brushes his cheek instead of landing flush. Your son, narrowly dodging the blow begins to twist his hips clockwise. And from here you can see the shock in her eyes, having thought the match was over as your son twists into a heavy left hook to her ribs under her upraised arm.

“Ghlurk?!” she wheezes as she's knocked back, your son's aura blazing higher as he charges after her. Looking to end the fight now, before she can recover. But Zucchi's a tough one, as even though you can see she can't breathe, still raises her arms defensively. Not giving up, even despite her face being twisted in pain from his heavy shot.
“HAAAAAAA!!” he roars, coming in with a heavy right. Forcing Zucchi entirely on the defensive, shelling up as he unleashes a fierce barrage of heavy blows. But she blocks them all, giving ground under his assault and letting him push her back. Circling backwards, letting him press the attack.

“She's drawing him in.” your wife comments, watching the fight closely. “She's letting him wear himself out. Should we tell him?”
“No. This will be a good lesson.” you reply as Junior attacks more and more fiercely. Not relenting as he pushes himself harder and harder. Clearly thinking she's still weak from that good shot, that she's only one or two more solid hits away from going down. And she draws him into that, letting him press his aggression and wear himself out against her defenses.
“HAAAAA! HRRAAA! HYAAH! HAAAAA!” he roars, attacking relentlessly. Giving everything he's got, pushing himself to the limit. But as he roars, you see it: his pace has started to falter! “HIYAAAH!”

His punches swing wider and wilder, trying to keep the pace as he gets more and more tired. But Zucchi doesn't fire back yet, studying your son carefully from behind her guard as she starts weaving again. And Junior's punches start missing, his wide swings leaving him wide open. But still Zucchi doesn't capitalize, and for a moment you start to think perhaps Chilli did more damage than you'd thought, leaving her unable to swing back. But, instead, you watch as she keeps weaving faster and faster, until your son stops swinging, seemingly realizing what's about to happen.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Al0f2jDe06U

“Sh-Shit!” he gasps then tries to back up, to raise his arms defensively to protect him from her coming assault. But it's too late, as the young woman goes on the attack. Weaving her figure eight through the air with her upper body, closing in as she starts throwing hooks with her weaving. Using the full power of her upper body and the momentum of her movement, throwing it all into each punch. Her fists slice the air, each blow landing like a hammer against your son's head. Not giving him a chance to even fall the repeated left-right of her punches keeping him from being knocked back. Over and over and over her heavy blows land, until with a final left to the jaw she sends him flying. Arcing through the air, tumbling and clearly unconscious as he falls. Your wife, immediately dashes off your back, flying over and catching him as you raise your right hand.

“Zucchi is the winner!” you declare into the silence, the only sounds that of the waves and Zucchi's heavy breathing. The other three young Saiyans are all staring up at her, wide-eyed and slack-jawed in disbelief. The silence hangs for a second, then two before all three cheer, flying up towards her. She turns, seeing her friends approach and smiling before all three tackle her out of the air, all speaking a thousand miles a second as they four all crash to the sand. Your wife, gently holding and caressing your son's hair, whispers something to him as he's out cold.
“Well. That was... Impressive.” Raven says, you glancing to her and seeing her clear surprise as well. “Was a hell of a technique at the end.
“Simple, but effective.” you reply, nodding along as the trio hold the girl, now no longer in her Super Saiyan form over their heads, toss and catch her repeatedly.

Which just leaves one question: what now?
>Go over and congratulate Zucchi, then ask who taught her to fight like that

>>6368291
>Stay where you are and just watch, see what the girl does next and how she reacts to winning her fight against your son when their friends stop throwing her
She's probably just gave Junior the greatest gift he could have asked for. Rivalries are rare, especially for somebody like our boy.
Anyways, I'm glad Junior decided to be a gentleman and stick to base Super Saiyan for this bout, even if it meant getting his shit rocked. He's got a lot to learn, but his attitude and demeanor are years beyond what his age would suggest.

>>6368291
>Stay where you are and just watch, see what the girl does next and how she reacts to winning her fight against your son when their friends stop throwing her
She's an interesting one for sure. Good to see that Junior can still be challenged and therefore pushed to improve by his peers. Best to watch this play out.

>>6368291
>Stay where you are and just watch, see what the girl does next and how she reacts to winning her fight against your son when their friends stop throwing her

>>6368302
Yeah. He could very easily lapse in skill thanks to his overwhelming power, so I think getting checked like this is a good thing for him in the long run.
>>6368291
>Go over and congratulate Zucchi, then ask who taught her to fight like that
With a chin and hands like that, she might even give some of our senior students some trouble. On that note, she should definitely drop by our class sometime. God knows some of the brawlers could use a simple super like that.

>>6368294
>I'm glad Junior decided to be a gentleman and stick to base Super Saiyan for this bout
He's been FIENDING for his friends to get strong enough to fight him for real. He's always had the power advantage over them, and could never spar with them for real.

You remain where you are, watching the celebration of the younger Saiyans. Listening to them, you hear a few interesting tidbits of their conversations. Including that your son Junior hadn't lost a fight against any of them yet, due to the insane power gap he has for being born a Super Saiyan.

“You did it, I can't believe it!”
“That was awesome!”
“I knew you could do it!”

They all cheer, finally setting her down. And standing on shaky legs, Zucchi walks over to your wife, holding your son still. She approaches him, and for a split-second you see your wife's natural fury spark behind her eyes. But then she sighs out, letting that tension fade and not lashing out at the girl. She walks right up to Karn Jr, leaning in and whispering something you can't hear. And he stirs, eyes slowly opening and sees her. You wonder how he'll react, if he'll be angry he lost, if he'll keep trying to fight. But then you see him smile, trying to sit up in your wife's arms.

“You got me! You actually got me!” he says, sounding excited. And then lunges, wrapping his arms around her shoulders, hugging her. “You did it Zucchi! You were amazing!”
“A-Amazing?” she replies, eyes wide. Looking around as if looking for support, for someone to say anything. But, after a moment she reaches up, wrapping her arms around your boy as well. And in the silence, in this peaceful moment, suddenly both kids' stomachs growl audibly. To which they both pull back a bit, blushing slightly before they both laugh. Their laughter is infectious, spreading to everyone gathered as you all laugh. You feel something in your chest loosen, the tension from the day fading away as you step forward.

“How about we all celebrate with supper at my place?” you say, taking a step forward. “A celebration for Zucchi's win.”
“Really?!” Junior says excitedly, springing up and out of your wife's arms, taking Zucchi's hands in his own. “Let's go, come on!”
“Wh-?” is all she has time to reply before he flies up into the air, practically dragging her along with him. You then turn to their other friends, then call to them.

“The three of you are welcome to join us all as well.” you tell them, seeing their eyes go wide.
“R-Really?” one asks, to which you nod as you raise up into the the air.
“Really. Come on, let's go.” you say, then take off after your youngest son flying over the sea towards your home.

You all fly over the sea, over the waves as you quickly approach your home. The familiar beach comes into sight, you all landing right outside your home. Going inside and everyone settles down inside your mess hall, Silver's apprentices and helpers bringing out plate after plate of food. While you listen to the five of them all talking, celebrating Zucchi's win. And, to your surprise, Karn Junior seems the most excited of everyone, telling his siblings about his fight eagerly. You all eat together, enjoying Silver's expert work and devouring the meal to the last bite.

Once your supper's done, everyone sitting around, relaxed. You take a deep breath, sighing out, relaxing as you lean back a bit. Looking over your gathered family, leaving only one thing left to decide: what will you do now? You have some time left before night falls and you need to rest, but what will you choose to do with it?

Well?

“Karn? Where are you going?” your wife asks as you stand and stretch, then turn to her.
“Gonna go grab a quick workout, get some reps in.” you reply, then add telepathically. “Only have one week, need to make sure it counts.”
“Okay. Good luck.” she replies, you both mutually ending the mental link as you make your way to the gravity chamber where you'd trained Prince Vegeta V not that long ago. Heading to the door you find the chamber empty, then walk up to the dial and crank it high. Turning it back up, letting the familiar, heavy weight settle on your shoulders as you start your own warm up.

However, as you run through your opening sets of a thousand, your mind keeps flashing back to how Zucchi was fighting your son. How she was weaving her body back and forth, dodging his strikes and building momentum for that powerful rush at the end. And as you get a decent sweat going, decide that's what you're going to work on, how you're going to push yourself. So, crossing your arms, you activate the Multiform technique. Splitting yourself into four separate Karn. The gravity increases fourfold, or at least it feels that way to each of your bodies' fourthed powerlevels. The weight slamming down onto each of you, causing all eight knees to tremble and nearly buckle. But each of you power through, pairing off into one-on-ones. Where two of you attempt those same swaying movements, to try and copy that technique.

Immediately, you discover the technique really only works with that same guard she was using, so each of your bodies attempting to do so take that same defensive stance. Then the weaving, back-and-forth. But you instantly realize that it's far more complex than it had looked from the outside. To do that defensive weaving isn't just in the hips, but is a full-body movement. Starting from the ankles and knees, shifting the body weight back and forth, then the hips shifting as well. But that's not all, as you also have to move your back and even neck to get that same full-body weaving pattern. And right as you start to get it, the heavy gravity starts taking its toll on you. Forcing you to stop, lowering the gravity back down to only fifty times New Salda's gravity before resuming your experimentation and training with this new technique. And at only fifty times, as you resume trying out this technique, you can feel the difference. Your bodies, which alternate who's swaying and who is observing, all soon get down the movements. Replicating the intricate, flowing, ceaseless motion. Until all four of your bodies can do it simultaneously, all four of your yous in perfect sync.

>>6368421
Now that you've got the movement down, have the motion correct, it's time to take it to the next level. Choosing the first two of you who'd started with the weave, you have them start adding those same heavy, powerful hooks in with the weaving. Two attackers and two defenders, to see just how powerful this attack really can be. So the two attackers start the weave back up, which only takes a second. Then, revved at full speed they move forward, weaving and throwing heavy hooks with each weave. Your two defending bodies raise your arms to defend, but that is quickly proven ineffective. As the blows land they get heavier, stronger, throwing the defenders' arms wider and wider with each shot. Battering them defenders back and forth until, inevitably, breaking their guards and landing powerful, heavy hooks to their heads. Each heavy punch flowing into the next, until, in perfect sync, the attackers both drop their defenders hard to the floor. Leaving your two attackers standing over them, breathing heavy.

-Mystery Weaving Technique Unlocked-

However, as you both stand over your downed selves, the two of you not seeing stars have realized the weaknesses of this technique. First and foremost, that it's a very easy attack to predict. If you know what it is, know your opponent is going for it, then there are several easy ways to defeat it. First, you can simply dash back, leaving the attacker's effective range as they swing and then whiff. Leaving them wide-open to any ranged attack before they could recover. Second, with good timing, you could land devastating counterattacks into the opponent's face. Swaying back and forth, putting their full body weight into the heavy punches, if you attack them right into their attack before they can build it up, you'd stuff their attack before they could build any momentum.

And, finally, there's also another method. If you can stop the weaving before they can build momentum for those heavy punches, either by going low and sweeping the legs as Junior'd done early in his fight with her or by charging in and slamming bodily into them, then the attack's useless. That second or so of wind-up time is crucial. Easily enough done when your opponent's on the offense, swinging and focusing on trying to hit you up top. But against an experienced opponent who'd attack your structure, switching levels and going low, it won't work. The attack's best used as a finisher, when your opponent's too tired to react or think ahead, too focused on hitting you. Just like how Zucchi'd played your son, drawing him in then countering with a devastating string of heavy blows.

“Definitely need to figure out who taught her to fight like that.” you mutter to yourselves, your standing bodies helping your downed selves up, then all of you re-merging into yourself before getting into your workout proper.

And for the next half hour or so, after cranking the gravity back up to one hundred times New Salda's gravity, you push your body through your heavy workout. Set after set, rep after rep you give it your best. Pushing your body until you're pouring sweat and gasping on the ground, wiped out. Leaving you laying there for a minute or two before tiredly, shakily pushing yourself back to your feet, going to the controls and turning the chamber off. The lights return to normal as you go to the door, but just before you get into range, the door opens. And your daughter, Caulifla is there along with her knight Lottus. Both wearing only undersuits, clearly here to get a heavy workout in themselves.

“Dad? What're you doing in here so late?” she asks, brows furrowing a bit in confusion. “Everything okay?”

Well? How do you respond?

>>Go back inside and tell her everything as she and Lottus work out, see what your daughter thinks of everything going on
No reason not to keep her abreast of the situation I feel. Also I think I just thought a potentially devastating finishing combo now that we have that "Mystery Weaving Technique" in our back pocket.
We pressure with Juyo, bait a desperate strike against our Lightning Body, engage Infinite Arm Fist and start up the Dempsey Roll before they recover. It's a lot of high level techniques back to back, but I think it's entirely possible to weave them together into a finishing pattern like that.

>>6368428
I just realized we could employ a little Dun Moch to bait a retaliatory strike against our Energy Body as well. This is your threadly reminder to read the Pastebins people, GD makes that info public for a reason.

“Okay? We'll... We'll see.” you reply, stepping back into the the chamber. The two share a glance, their expressions suddenly worried.
“Tell me everything.” your daughter says, the two coming into the chamber as well. Lottus going to the controls, whistling low at seeing you'd had it maxed out, turning it well down before turning the chamber back on. The much lower gravity than you'd been training at settles over you, the two Saiyans starting their training with pushups. And as they start doing their repetitions, you tell them. Everything, starting with the Heeters and the fight with Granolah in a week, then visiting Otherworld and talking with your father before the Tamaraneans arrived and tried to capture Ticho. And this new figure, this Kryat you were told of possibly being the one behind this attempted kidnapping, as well as going after Koriand'r too. “Wait, what happened with Kori and Broly?”

And as she asks this, you realize you hadn't checked back in with him yet. That you have no idea how that situation wrapped up. And so, with a thought, you reach back out to him.

“Broly. Is everything okay?” you think to him, reaching out to his mind with your own. “Are you and Kori okay?”
“Dad? Yeah, we're okay.” he answers you, sending you a mental image of himself, Kori, and two unknown Tamaranean women all sitting in a room presumably inside his ship you've never seen. “Kori's just catching up with some of her friends from back home.”
“Just her friends? They didn't try and take her?” you ask, and for a split-second feel something dark in his mind. “Broly?”

“It's fine, we... Handled it. I'll tell you more later.” he replies, and before you can ask another question, his mind disconnects from your own. Leaving you frowning.
“Is everything okay?” Cauli asks, her head turned towards you but not slowing her exercise.
“Yeah. Just talked to Broly, he and Kori are okay.” you reply, still wondering what happened on his end. But you're not going to find that out today, so you put it aside for now. “He didn't give details, but they're okay.”

“That's good.” Cauli says with a sigh, finishing her set and laying flat on the ground a moment as she catches her breath. “So, you've got a fight in a week with someone who wants to kill us all, there's a mystery guy in the Tamaranean court who is causing trouble, may or may not be under my estranged sister-in-law's orders, and there's a group of bastards trying to steal a set of Dragon Balls. Is there anything else going on?”

As she says that, moving over to the bar weights and lifting them up onto her shoulders, squatting them with good form, suddenly you get an uneasy feeling in your guts. But the way she says it, you don't know how, but you can just feel it: this isn't everything. There's more going on.

But do you tell her your suspicions? Do you let her know you think someone's behind all of this, someone setting all this up? Or do you keep this particular worry to yourself for now, and wait to see if it comes true or not? But before you can decide-

Well? Choose your destiny carefully, you can only pick one.

“Hey, Karn, you busy man?” Arctus' thoughts suddenly cut in, feeling even through the telepathic link that the man's absolutely smashed. “C'mere, found out something super-important!”
“Important?” you ask him, seeing Caulifla's face change as she recognizes the moment another mind reaches yours. Recognizing the moment my focus goes elsewhere. “What happened Arctus?”
“I got it! I broke through! All those tasty secrets are now mine!” he replies, cackling. “I broke that stubborn skull wide open!”

“What? You got it open?” you exclaim, both aloud and telepathically. Seeing Caulifla and Lottus both start at your shout, you raising your right hand to your forehead as you tell your daughter where you're going, then focus on Arctus' power through the link. And with a thought, your Instant Transmission carries you from your gravity chamber to Arctus' side. Reappearing somewhere inside his droid factory, the sounds of metal soldiers being built echoing through the walls as you look around. Finding Arctus at a desk, with the head from that doctor who helped build that Tuffle bastard on the machine mutant planet M-2 disassembled. Its different parts all connected with wires to different things, the entire room filled with wires and machinery. “Wow. You weren't kidding, that thing's entirely open.”

“Karrrrrrn! There y'are, buddy! I diiiiiiid it!” he slurs his words drunkenly, taking another swig from a large bottle in his right hand as he turns his head towards you. “Ffffffigur'ddd it out! Takin' it apart took apart 'issss security. Annnnn I could discov'rrrr everything! I got every secret outta its head!”
“You really got it? Ha, I knew you could do it, Arctus!” you say, slapping him on the back affectionately. He grins, raising his drink as he sways back and forth in his chair. Clearly drunk enough that you'd be out cold if you'd drank as much as he had. But the man's a professional drinker, and clearly deserving of his victory celebration. “So, what's it got?”

“Everything! How the Tuffle Machine Mutant was made, how its body is made to both appear solid and liquid at the same time, the process by which it lays the 'eggs' inside a host's brain, everything!” he says, the slur vanishing as he focuses, fingers returning to the keyboard and flying over the keys, images and diagrams and schematics that don't quite make sense to you. But he can clearly read it all, moving between the files. “And I even found out who also helped make it. And not just Nefarious either. They had help, from someone outside of our time!”

You knew it. And now you're proven right.

I'm ready to absolutely bitchslap whoever's coming to try and shut Arctus up for good. You don't encrypt your machinery that well unless it knows something that could blow operations wide open.
>Enjoy learning the first step for a new technique, a new close-quarters finishing move you could learn and possibly use to teach your students how to counter it?
I really want to know where it comes from. It's pretty cool.
>Curious what other secrets await, or if out alternate timeline individual will come and try to protect their secret from you?
well, other than the big plot going on, there is ONE secret I want to know. What is King Cold's favorite plundered treasure out of everything he owns, both in the Royal Vault and elsewhere?

“I knew it.” you say, feeling a sense of vindication. You couldn't prove it, but you knew that there was more to the Tuffle threat than you'd known at the time. “So, who was it?”
“That's the thing, never seen them before. Why I wanted you over here, to see if you recognized them.” he says, fingers typing fast until he pulls up a video of that lab. Where, suddenly, a pale, pointy-eared figure you don't recognize with a large “X” scar across his chest simply APPEARS. One second nothing, the next standing in that lab you vaguely remember. Wearing a fur-lined black coat, a clear yellow face visor and red pants, something about the figure feels familiar. As if you've seen them before somewhere in passing. But you can't remember anything about this figure. However, the two beings standing beside him look eerily familiar. Two white-skinned beings with the same completely blue eyes and face lines as that Tuffle bastard, the short-haired one wearing a blue jacket and the more woman-shaped one wearing red.

“Well now, how's our little project coming along, Dr. Myuu?” the man says, the two smaller beings going to the pod where that Tuffle was growing.
“Hearts. You know, for a time traveler, you're terrible at showing up on time.” Myuu says, Arctus freezing the footage and turning to you.
“See! Right there, they admit it!” he exclaims, eyes turning serious. “So, you ever seen these guys before?”

“No. And that could be a problem.” you reply, crossing your arms. “If there is another faction rising, then we need to know who they are and what they want.”
“Agreed. So, what's step one?” Arctus asks you.

Well? What do you do with this new information?
>Telepathically call Towa to come over, she needs to see everything now
>Tell Arctus to make backups upon backups, spread this info wide through the network so it can't be easily deleted by anyone covering their tracks

“Step one is contacting our own time travelers. I'll see if I can get them down here.” you reply to him, then reach out with your mind to try and get a hold of your alternate timeline daughter. “Chaya, can you hear me? Are you here?”
“Dad?” she replies, a hint of confusion in her mind. “Is everything okay?”
“Yeah, need your help kiddo. Got a time traveler need you to help me identify.” you think to her. And immediately feel her sudden worry, a second later Future Chaya and Ace both appear beside you. “There you are.”

“Show us.” she says, all business. You turn to Arctus, who immediately resumes his drunken act.
“Heeeeere's thhhh guy.” he slurs, rewinding the video and playing it again. You watch Future Chaya's reaction, see her brows furrow at the appearance of the trio.
“Who is that?” she asks, staring at the guy with the “X” on his chest. Continuing to watch, then repeating his name as Dr. Myuu says it. “Hearts? You ever heard that name, Ace?”

“No.” the quiet man answers, shaking his head. “I don't think I've ever seen him.”
“Then we need to know what the boss knows.” Future Chaya replies, turning to Arctus. “We're gonna need that information.”
“I gottit.” he says, reaching over towards the desk, knocking over a dozen bottles before grabbing a data stick and holding it out to your other timeline daughter. “Herrrrrrre. Copy of everythin' innnn that head.”

“Perfect. Thanks Arctus.” she says with a nod, then turns to you. “We'll have this figured out. If someone's causing trouble, we'll track them down. Won't we?”
“Yeah. We'll take care of this.” Ace says, nodding to you once. However, as you all are standing there, suddenly you, Ace, and Future Chaya all feel it at once. Something's coming. A MASSIVE ki unlike anything you've ever felt before, radiating with an unfamiliar, bottomless malice. Ace and Future Chaya both flash up into their Beyond Blue and Apex forms instantly, you ascending into your Berserker God form too. And even Ace, seeing you all transform also transforms, shifting up into his form similar to Cooler's own. “What the hell is THAT?”

“HRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!” comes a massive roar, the power surging as the ground trembles beneath your feet. Whatever this massive, dark power is, you've no doubt it's here after what Arctus discovered. Which leaves you one question:

What do you do?

“I'll be back to help after getting Arctus to safety.” you tell your alternate timeline daughter, grabbing Arctus' shoulder as the sounds of explosions ring out, muffled through the walls. “Arctus, grab the data. We're leaving, now.”
“Leaving? But-!” he starts, only for Chaya and Ace to throw his office door wide only to be greeted by a cloud of dark, choking smoke. “Fuck. Alright.”

You stand between him and the door as your future daughter and Ace fly through it, out towards that massive powerlevel as you hear Arctus scrambling behind you. However, suddenly there's a flash of light, and the doorway is blocked. At first your immediate reaction is surprise, wondering why Chilli's suddenly here and using his Crystal magics. But then you see it's not your son's power, but something else.

“Arctus, NOW!” you exclaim, raising your right to your forehead, left on his shoulder. And the crystal-like substance spreads, growing rapidly across the floor, walls and ceiling. Clearly trying to trap you both inside. Reaching out to Towa telepathically, hoping to reach her before those crystals reach you. “Towa! Problem!”
“Karn?” she asks, her mind worried. But before you can answer her, Arctus shouts to you.
“GO!” he declares, and without hesitation you vanish. Dragging Arctus with you through space, teleporting with Instant Transmission right in Towa's lab.

“Karn what the hell is going on?” she asks you, but you're already focusing again. And even over the vast distance, you can feel Apex Chaya's surging power.
“Arctus, show her everything.” you order, focusing on Future Chaya's energy and teleporting back to the battlefield. Where you see an unexpected sight.
“HRRRROOOOAAAAAAAAH!!!” roars a huge Saiyan, with hair like Raditz' and an insane level of power. His aura blazing red and black around him, his energy causing the hairs on the back of your neck to stand on end, and you instincts to scream at you that this being means danger. And as you appear, Future Chaya's charging in headfirst, swinging a heavy right at the roaring Saiyan. Only for her fist, striking the aura, to be stopped by it. But not only stopped, as to your horror, that dark, sinister aura seems to INFECT your future daughter's own!

“KYAAAAAH!” she screams, recoiling in pain. You and Ace watching in horror as her golden aura's outline turns black, her aura itself shifting to orange as that sinister energy corrupts her own!
“CHAYA!?” you and Ace both shout, only for her to slowly turn towards you both. Pupils gone, her eyes all white like your Berserker forms as she snarls, charging forward.

“HRYAAAAAAA!!” she roars, even her voice seemingly infected and deepened by the power as she charges you both.
“Tch! That bastard's energy somehow infected hers!” he shouts, deep blue aura shifting to a much paler color as he transforms, ascending further as his hair and eyes turn white. “Leave her to me, you find a way to take that bastard down.”

And without waiting for your reply he moves forward, weaving her first strike. Letting her swing at him as his technique, Ultra Instinct as he's told you it's called, allows him to mindlessly dodge all of her attacks as he tries to talk her down, to reach her without becoming corrupted by that darkness himself. Which leaves you facing the red and black-aura'd Saiyan, who turns his blood red eyes on you. However, as you stare him down, suddenly, you feel something. His power and your own aren't dissimilar. His own strength feels oddly close to your Berserker Soul's own might. Perhaps your own energy won't be as easily affected, or maybe let you resist what he did to your daughter. But that doesn't change what you have to do, you have to stop him from destroying everything.

“HRRRAAAAA!” you roar, clenching your fists and blazing your aura up around yourself. As you do, the other warrior's eyes widen in shock, almost recognition as your emerald aura flares.
“You-?!” he exclaims as you then cross your arms, drawing your energy in. Condensing and hardening it around you, forming your Energy Body. “YOU! FIGHT ME! HRRRRAAAAAAAA!!”

With a roar he blazes his own dark aura, the whole building tremble as his massive power surges. But as he roars you explode forward off the ground, closing the distance in a blink and swinging. Your ki-clad fist slices through his energy, delivering a heavy right to his mask-covered face. However, your punch doesn't even phase him! You feel your eyes widen as your strike doesn't even make him flinch.

“Tch!” you exhale as your brow furrows, then as you see him start to swing you move. Your body weaving left as he swings a heavy right, then reflexively bringing your arms up and moving as you'd trained earlier. Weaving back right as he follows up with a left, your body almost returning to that pattern. However, instead of waiting to build up the high-speed weaving, twist and throw a powerful hook with your right up into his left ribs. Again you land a heavy, world-shattering blow, and once more his body doesn't budge.
“KRRRRRRAAAAAA!!” he bellows, drawing his left back in a heavy elbow aimed at your head. But you lean back, his heavy blow narrowly missing as you flip backwards. Twisting and firing a right turning kick to his exposed, masked jaw. But like the previous blows, this kick doesn't so much as budge him. So you bring your left up, kicking off his chest and flipping back, getting clear. Flipping back once, landing on your feet and sliding to a stop as you retake your fighting stance.

“You're a tough one, ain'tcha?” you ask, only for this dark, sinister energy-filled Saiyan to roar wordlessly once more, charging in directly at you. And as he swings with a heavy right haymaker you weave the blow with your Su Ma. Twisting clockwise around his fist, landing a flawless left to his masked jaw, continuing your spin into a right elbow to the back of his head. Both of which do nothing but make him roar even louder, spinning counterclockwise with a left backfist. Which you dodge by flipping back, landing on your shoulders and palms, hands up by your head as you drive off the ground, slamming both heels up into his guts. That one, with the full power of your body behind it lifts the sinister Saiyan up off his feet, launching him into the ceiling above with a crash. But as you flip back to your feet he's already roaring again, charging straight down at you once more. This isn't going to be easy. But you're not backing down, kicking off the ground and meeting his charge head-on!

Whatever the case, I'm glad we got the chance to throw hands with one of our ancestors. I wonder if he's from Yamoshi's era.

>>6368873
Giga Nigga definitely has quality grade super armor. What's shocking me is that he isn't even super saiyan. Who and what is this guy?

>>6368884
>Yamoshi's era
Well, I'll say that he RECOGNIZES your power.
>>6368885
Nah he's got full on Dark Souls 1-tier poise, not weak Super Armor.
>isn't even Super Saiyan
Isn't even Super Saiyan YET. And you could find out what he is next time.

>>6368897
>And you could find out what he is next time.
Yeah well the thing about fucking around and finding out is that it goes both ways. I'm more than ready to bust out the Juyo or even some Supreme Instinct if he keeps acting up.

Good luck. This guy is always STRONG in his first appearance. How many people can you count have or even COULD match Kaio-Ken Super Saiyan Blue VEGITO, and in their BASE form too?

>>6369424
Nah, easy work. You just have to have confidence.

January Patreon comm dropping this week, got the preliminary work on the art and immediately wrote more than three full /qst/ length posts of the battle tonight. You know it's going to be a good one when this song hits:

Confidence isn't enough to overcome a wall like this. A wall that battled both previously spoilered and Super Saiyan 4 Xeno Vegito and beat them BOTH one after another. This is a survival mission.

Nah I'm built different I'll beat his ass, with no bars even.

100%. Everyone else can relax. Put their hands down. I'll take care of this on my own.

>>6368351

Karn Jr could act like a bully, because he is much stronger than other kids, but he does not do it. That shows what kind of person he is.

Very nice art.

>And that's it for this weekend, enjoying this episode so far?
Yes. It’s lots of fun.
> Ready to potentially discover some deep Saiyan lore,
Sure.
>battle an ancient Evil Saiyan, and see if your full power matches up to the likes of Ace and Future Chaya now?
I’m excited about this. I was thinking if after the Tournament of Power maybe it’s time for Karn to be strong enough to catch up with time travelers like Ace and Chaya. Though that might not be the case.
>>6369471
>Confidence isn't enough to overcome a wall like this. A wall that battled both previously spoilered and Super Saiyan 4 Xeno Vegito and beat them BOTH one after another. This is a survival mission.
It seems Karn’s power is not at the level that time travelers have.

Berserker God form does zero damage to Cumber. Earlier I was thinking about some clever use of Force powers and other things that maybe would do something to ancient Sayian. However, the impression I’m getting now is that even if Karn attacked him with Sith Lightning and even got a very good dice roll, it would only tickle him.

I’m currently on copium, hoping that Supreme Instinct will do something to him… but probably not. And that is Cumber merely in his base form. How did he become so strong? What training does he do? How does he do it?

Another thing is usually when time travelers arrive the time seal at the back of Karn’s hand burns and signifies that it can be activated to transform Karn into Super Villain form. This allows Karn’s power to rise to the challenge that would normally be impossible, because time travelers are usually way stronger.
However this time there is no mention of it. I think this may be important detail. Is this Cumber from our timeline and current time? That seems unlikely. So why is Time Seal not reacting? Perhaps whoever is allied with ancient Saiyan have found a way to fool this time interruption detection. Which may mean that Cumber and his allies are able to mess with time without being spotted by Time Patrol and even Mechikabura. If true, that’s a massive problem.
>6368873
>Do you think you can prevail, or will you need a lot of help to beat a monster like that?
After reading how strong Cumber is I guess Karn may act as a distraction for ancient Saiyan while maybe Future Chaya and Ace are able to do something about him (assuming she regains control of herself).
> And who was the one trying to kidnap Arctus with what appeared to be crystals?
Same person who send here ancient Saiyan.
> All this and more next time when Saiyan Conqueror Quest continues!
I can’t wait.

It helps to have good role models.

>>6369741
Nah, Anon would win.
>>6369768
That's a good catch about the demon seal. Why didn't it activate..?

>>6369771
I had just assumed Mechikabura and Towa had neglected to renew our seal after we burnt it out during uh...it was when we shattered Zamasu's psychosis dimension I think?

>>6369768
>Karn Jr could act like a bully, because he is much stronger than other kids, but he does not do it. That shows what kind of person he is.
We raised him right, and he's a good boy by nature

>>6369741
Ha! Good luck.
>>6369768
Absolutely. But he sees how someone much stronger than those beneath him DOES treat people. He raises them up, teaches them, helps them. And he wants to be like his dad, just like his siblings.
Always good art.
Glad you're enjoying. This arc is a lot of fun to write so far.
Clearing Jiren, even without directly scoring the ring out yourself, puts Karn in the same ballpark as SDBH CC Goku, who is explicitly pre-Moro arc Goku.
Well, you didn't get to see how Ace or Future Chaya would fare against him, as neither actually got to fight him.
>How did he become so strong? What training does he do? How does he do it?
Training, he says. You're not dealing with the average Saiyan warrior anymore.
The seal has been burned out, if you check the docs Karn no longer has it. You've grown beyond what it could provide, you're too strong for it now.
It's going to keep being good. Trying to decide if Ace vs Future Chaya makes a good intermission, or if I should follow another developing angle on this expanding plot.
>>6369770
True. Plus, despite literally being born with the Super Saiyan rage, he's a good boy at heart naturally.
>>6369772
Mechikabura said to you that he could remake it, but next time you tried to merge it with Berserker God's full power it would just burn out again. You're at the point now where you have to stand on your own two feet and fight your battles with every trick and tool you've acquired over your journey.
>>6369798
Absolutely correct.

Karn finally made it to the Big League, I'm so proud of him.

>>6369820
>You're not dealing with the average Saiyan warrior anymore.
Ya know, I was a little surprised that his power felt so similar to ours when so many other mindless and wrathful entities didn't, but I guess it stands to reason that the Berserker mutation doesn't always manifest like it does with Karn and Broly. Hell, look at Junior.
Speaking of, has he figured out a name for that form of his yet?

>The seal has been burned out, if you check the docs Karn no longer has it. You've grown beyond what it could provide, you're too strong for it now.
Karn really had to improve a lot to make that happen. That’s like an end of an era. It was with Karn for so long. The transformation also did look really unique.
>Mechikabura said to you that he could remake it, but next time you tried to merge it with Berserker God's full power it would just burn out again. You're at the point now where you have to stand on your own two feet and fight your battles with every trick and tool you've acquired over your journey.
You are right. That’s a big change but also a good thing. His first battle without the seal is already very memorable. I mean Cumber. Facing such impossible challenge will certainly be helpful for Karn to improve.
>>6369999
>I guess it stands to reason that the Berserker mutation doesn't always manifest like it does with Karn and Broly. Hell, look at Junior.
What you said made me think what would happen if Karn theoretically went full evil path after unlocking Berserker transformation for the first time. If Karn’s personality and choices can have influence on how Berserker’s Soul’s power manifest then maybe evil Karn’s power would be more like Cumber’s?
>>6368819
>However, as you stare him down, suddenly, you feel something. His power and your own aren't dissimilar. His own strength feels oddly close to your Berserker Soul's own might.
Currently Karn shields himself with Energy Body. I wonder if he did not do it would Cumber’s corruptive aura infect Karn’s aura too like it did with Chaya? Or perhaps it would react differently since there is some similarity between their power? I know Karn is immune to mind control but I’m still curious about this thing. Ancient’s Saiyan is really unusual.

>>6369869
Yes. Training wheels are off when dealing with other timelines after the Zamasu incident, you have to stand on your own power and abilities now.
>>6369999
There's a reason for that. Remember how I said the Berserker God power came to the Saiyans back during the Saiyan Civil War? May or may not be related to this one's particular breed of Saiyan.
>>6370121
The Supervillain power is cool, but feeds off your life force and could have potentially killed you. "Graduating" from it means you're ready.
Oh boy, Cumber's just getting started. He's starting to like you, and will want to start trying soon.
Cumber's power isn't the same as the Berserker Soul.
A very good question. If you drop it, will you continue to be unaffected? Or will the drop in defenses mean you get crushed by his power? Also, it isn't necessarily the fact he's old that's important. But a now-extinct sub-race of Saiyans virtually wiped out with the end of the war. And Planet Sadala.

>>6370196
>Oh boy, Cumber's just getting started. He's starting to like you, and will want to start trying soon.
>"Hey, this guy isn't a little bitch, finally."

>>6370201

>Also absurdly large and mean

How much money you wanna bet he's a father with multiple partners too?

>>6370210
>implying his partners would survive his Cumber
though, if he's a SPECIES of Saiyan, and he isn't just an obscenely powerful freak outlier 3ithin his own "group", then I can understand Freeza's initial misgivings about the Saiyans. Maybe Cumber is more closely related to the kind of Saiyan Beerus was dreaming about and Meloka just happened to fit the bill at the time.

>>6370215
The actual difference between the Evil Saiyans and their contemporaries that would eventually become Karn's ancestors was never really explained canonically, so I don't know if they were a distinct sub-species or just a specific cultural/ethnic demographic.
Either way, I'm excited to learn more now that a living example has entered the narrative. Really feels like an SCQ thing to do, elaborating on and expanding existing Saiyan lore I mean.

>>6370201
Pretty much. "Hey, I recognize you as a REAL fighter, let's DO THIS!"
>>6370210
Hard to say. Old Saiyans weren't exactly exclusive.
>>6370215
This was long before Cold was aware of the Saiyans. This goes back to the 'good' vs 'evil' Saiyans, as Cumber's one from back in the Civil War.
No, his dream was of the Super Saiyan God. Not of what Karn is, or what Cumber is either.
>>6370219
>Really feels like an SCQ thing to do, elaborating on and expanding existing Saiyan lore I mean.
Brother that means a lot. I love expanding the setting and lore from what we know, why I was big in the Havel conspiracy against the gods discovery back in the Dark Souls days. Love a good lore discovery/dive

>>6370220
>Hard to say. Old Saiyans weren't exactly exclusive.
I had a feeling, but you can't tell me he didn't see one of his little bastards running around at one point and get a little misty eyed. He's a man after all, ain't he?
>Brother that means a lot.
Your efforts show man. For what is ostensibly just a hobby, you've gone insanely hard in the paint in terms of the volume and quality of your writing.

>>6370220
>This goes back to the 'good' vs 'evil' Saiyans, as Cumber's one from back in the Civil War.
Ancient history is wild in Dragonball.
>I love expanding the setting and lore from what we know
It's one of the major reasons why I stuck around for this quest, starting from the archives to getting into the campaign properly by the time we were hunting for deep sea frog leather. It's a tough job wrangling the lore of a series as long as Dragonball with all of its supplemental material and spinoffs, even tougher in a setting where other franchises with rich histories of their own collide.

>>6370196
>Oh boy, Cumber's just getting started. He's starting to like you, and will want to start trying soon.
Karn will do everything not to disappoint. I wonder what will Cumber think of Supreme Instinct. Will he notice that it is something unusual or will he think that it is just another type powerup that changes color of your hair, aura, eyes and nothing more.
>A very good question. If you drop it, will you continue to be unaffected? Or will the drop in defenses mean you get crushed by his power?
I’m curious to see. Though it’s risky to deactivate Energy Body only to see what will happen.
>Also, it isn't necessarily the fact he's old that's important. But a now-extinct sub-race of Saiyans virtually wiped out with the end of the war. And Planet Sadala.
Fascinating. I am getting the impression here that the power level that Cumber has is as noticeable to anyone in our universe who can sense energy as was the Strongest Meloka Black when she appeared. If I remember right her power could be felt even in the Sacred World of the Kai.

This leads me to assumption that everyone noticed his presence.
>King Vegeta IV
>Meloka
>Kars
>King Cold
>Chili
>Freeza
>Caulifa
>Broly and our other allies
Since Karn is near I think it is possible that he will soon receive a telepathic questions from Meloka and King Vegeta and others “What is going on there. Do you need help?”
Kars might be watching through a scrying orb. If he is watching then Cumber as a member now-extinct sub-race of Saiyans is certainly interesting from a genetic and a biological point of view.

>>6370224
Who knows?
Thank you. I try to put on a hell of a quest for you guys, glad you've stuck with me for so long.
>>6370429
If you go for it, he'll notice the difference and escalate his own power as well.
True. Especially after seeing the difference in strength when your blows don't really budge him.
Entirely possible. Unless someone's taking efforts to mask what's happening from the wider universe. Suppressing their imprint so their presence doesn't radiate through the scroll.
If his allies can see it though, or Towa breaks through any potential barriers, you'll certainly be getting a lot of questions and allies eager to help fight something this strong.

>>6370333
Don't know how I dropped my (You) to you here in this one >>6370515, but somehow I dropped it. Must have accidentally written over it. Anyways:
Yes, Dragon Ball lore goes crazy.
Glad you enjoy reading the worldbuilding as much as I enjoy crafting and in many cases mining it for your guys. Glad you've stuck with me for so long, and looking forward to continuing the journey. And when SCQ eventually ends, I hope you enjoy the lore of my next setting too.
