"Yamcha, in a few seconds I will send you on a mission to land in the east, are you ready..."

"Swoosh!!"
"Whoosh!!"
"Crash!!"
And as Mr Popo counted down suddenly Yamcha's perspective began changing as the lands in front began to become doused in white lights.
As his last view was Kami and Mr Popo smirking happily, he could tell something was going on but he couldn't change it he was ready to be enlightened.
Like they say, "One crosses the Buddha and Devil in their paths and many branch into them, but enlightenment is ever-changing... Enlightenment is killing Buddha, killing the Devil."
Enlightenment is to be ever-changing in one's views and actions, to not be held back by the trivial pursuit of worldly desires.
This life is temporary, and so one should focus on the important things first, not seek mental and physical stress in reaching standards accepted by society.
One has to create his own branch into the right path, Man needs to create its own destiny, there was no string to pull one through instead Man should cut off the red rope of fate, for ones Karma is restricted by it.

My eyes were twitching right now as the blinding white light engulfed my eyes making it hard for me to even see.
It was similar to the light that was emitted when one formed a Ki-blast but it was placed in one's eyes directly.
It burned but after a while, It went away. As my ears took overhearing the quiet chirping birds in the skies perched upon the grand trees.
My ears also heard some croaking from near me presumably from some frogs, meaning I was near a body of water.
As my body felt like mush until I quickly circulated my Ki around my body fixing me up in a jiffy.
"Boom!!"
Echoed the sounds as I leapt upwards onto my legs as I wandered through the area I landed in seemingly in a forest of sorts.
But my eyes were instantly captivated by a nearby mountain range as it's huge black peaks overhung the entire forest, as they seemingly pierced through the atmosphere into the cosmos.
As I saw this scene some type of wisdom flowed into me as my mind repeated. "Stay calm and still so the rain and the wind cannot move you..."
This sentence echoed in my mind as I plopped my feet gently upon the ground heading out of the luscious and melodious forest.
Making my way into the mountain ranges were thick fog was evident as it enchanted the eyes with its wicked white particles.
And seeing this a small golden bird seemingly a canary appeared in my field of vision as instantly I got into a stance, 'what if it was an enemy!'
My mind told me as my signature stance was ready as I began leaking out a silver wolf's body behind me seemingly translucent.
But the golden canary ignored it and headed backwards, to the mountains where a pair of steps were seen as a young redheaded girl appeared from that direction.
Seeing this girl instantly my mind began processing everything around me and quickly I figured out my mission, it was to take the crown from Mount Goro-Goro alternatively Mount Rumble.
As I remembered this was to help increase one's speed and it would also let me increase my thunder meaning it would increase my power overall.
So without saying anything to the girl who I think was called Chu-Lee according to my memories, I headed up the trail of the mountain as my goal was the sacred crown and also increasing my overall Ki.
And this task was simply killing two birds with one stone. So I hurried upwards as with a leap I was in midair already and soon I began to fly upwards.
Until I had reached the top of the huge black mountain eclipsing any mountain known to man.
As surely this was truly tall and nothing in my mind could beat its size.
As I flew up to the top the clouds above the rumbling mountain began to grow cloudy as soon countless thunderstorms were executed one by one.
Seemingly they were without a care in the world as they targeted my safety. Countless times I felt like I would've been vaporised to death if I hadn't blocked or dodged.
'I sense something creepy along this area, and that girl was grinning when she saw me scale this mountain, there's something about this...'
Until I realised something. I could absorb these Lightning bolts which seemed to have Ki infused within them for some reason making them especially deadly, almost killing me several times.
-Back In The Lookout:-
Kami and Mr Popo merely smirked as they looked on in Yamcha's performance within Mount Rumble.
As they witnessed him climbing the mountain until he began flying up to the top, not a single movement was unseen by them as they witnessed everything in detail.
As they watched his performance they heard him say, "Hah and they call that Mount Rumble!"
But this further elicited even more laughter from the two old friends as they began laughing at Yamcha's ego, that was sure to break in two like a plate soon.
"Old friend... What do you think will happen to the child, for I fear he'll somehow hurt himself and then create a miracle of sorts."
"Oh your right, Kami this boy has a lot of potential and I'm glad to be his master, for if not it would all go to waste."
"Old friend, I hope your right... I do not like to be wrong..."
-Mount Rumble:-
As Yamcha landed on the top of the mountain he saw a quartz-like material on top of the mountain with a silvery crown on top of it with ancient glyphs and statues on each side of it.
From memory, Yamcha knew this would cause direct attacks to him so he began to circulate his Ki into lightning in order for him to be able to absorb the power behind the thunderbolts.
As he began his movements towards the crown it's teal jewel on the forehead peace began to emit a gorgeous cyan light as it flared back at Yamcha with dignity and dominance.
If he wanted this he'd have to work for it, work really hard for it. He knew that and he was going to give it his all.
"There it is the crown, Wow it's shiny as if it's blinding me, but I must remain cautious I cannot let my guard down it'll only lead to my downfall."
Saying this Yamcha moved closer and closer until he picked up the crown.
"Shing!!"
Was the sound as a metallic sound rang out like a gong, from the crown as he placed it on his head before he got into a cross-legged position upon the quarts pedestal previously holding up the Sacred Crown.
As he sighed in relief as nothing happened no ominous signs nothing of the sort as his eyes shut he began immersing himself in tapping the crown's power.
Until suspicious and creepy noises rang aloud throughout the mountain peak alerting him instantly but the crown seemingly suppressed his power causing him to not react in time and circulate his Ki as soon something unimaginable happened.
"BOOOM!!"
"BANG!!!"
"CRASH!!!"
"CRACK!!"
———_______———
As Yamcha was too slow to circulate Ki around his body fast enough, the lightning strikes that were seemingly supercharged attacked him point-blank.
With nothing at his disposal, he embraced it for the love of Kami he had one HFIL of a will, and he embraced the pain as his eyes were seared by the light intensity.
Before his torso got smashed into causing him unimaginable pain. But he bit his upper lip in hopes of using the pain as a sort of numbing condition.
Unfortunately, it did anything but that, as he shrieked once again... Agony, anguish, anxiety, angst...
It rolled off of him as his body suddenly began cracking in innumerable pieces like pieces of a valuable China collection cracking into smithereens.
But instead imagine a supernatural being cracking like broken China pieces, as blue arcs coursed through these cracks.
Gritting his teeth seemed to have made no difference, as instead his teeth began cracking into dust as both his canines fell to the endless pain.
The next thing you know his eyes began shining in blue endless possibilities, as it began to sizzle and gradually burn as arcs of blue electricity sparked off of his shattered body and his eyes.
The intense pain had caused even his jet black hair to begin withering until he was but a shattered piece of China unlike his once towering, mighty and friendly form.
His shiny, long wild coal coloured hair, was now a sight to behold as it'd become weak, weaker than ever as it had turned into a blank blanco, a white so withered one could pour tears out once seeing his previous form compared to this.
-The Lookout:-
"Kami, what have we DONE..."
Said Mr Popo as he looked in extreme distress looking at his disciples frail and withered body now on the verge of dying with a simple gust of wind.
What had happened, everything had gone to plan, but the lightning was too strong as if provoked, and as if powered by one's rage.
As if someone increased the power of it for some reason.
Kami, the green wrinkled old man, was similarly thinking the same things as his old friend.
What could have happened to his disciple, he'd already decided he'd be the next guardian yet he'd been struck by such ferocious Lightning it was a miracle he was still alive at his state right now.
His successor was literally and metaphorically, Shattered...
Without hesitation, he contacted Korin the old Neko-Sennin telepathically, as he said the two words that could cause a whole lot of miracles.
'Senzu Beans!'
Without hesitation, Korin used his telekinesis as he sent the bag of the green miracle beans up to Kami's withered old hands. As Kami got ready to teleport there...
———_______———
The once-powerful warrior now laid on the ground lightning cracking out of him like he'd explode in any minute, the mere amount of Lightning he'd engulfed was too much for his Dantian that his very own Dantian had been crippled.
Causing him to vomit out blood as his eyes showed unwillingness, his body already on its last legs tried to stand up once more.
But his very own life force was flowing out of him like a dam that was suddenly broken, as it rained down its might at the lakes and rivers below.
Just like the very air he was breathing his life force was vanishing rapidly, yet rapidly was an understatement.
'No, I can't die... I told myself I'd make Earthlings relevant, powerful, worth it, respectable, reliable, not expendables.'
'No is this how my second Life ends, NOOO, NEVER...'
"BULMA, She's waiting... For me..."
'My goal was to get married and have a family to fill in the gap in my heart of loneliness, yet this was taken from me like that...'
'Fate, that's its fate, curse you karma, fate, whatever is up there making my life hard... It's not fair, whether it be fate, karma or destiny...'
"RAAARRRGGGHHH... I will never submit to these fools what fate, destiny or karma- I will Cleave these through with my very own hands BELIEVE IT...
If fate is inevitable, then I'm merely a puppet. There is nothing I can do other than wait for someone to pull my strings.
So I wish for power, incredible power, incredible strength...
If I can't even protect myself let alone my loved ones from the samsara of life and death from Karma from Fate from Destiny from Buddha from the Devil, then give me a strong body, and enough might... to shatter that which I find useless and insignificant..."
"... Give me enough might to shatter that which I find useless, insignificant and merely a rope of attachment to these useless ideologies...
GIVE ME SUCH STRENGTH... THAT I CAN CLEAVE THROUGH EVEN THE MOST FICKLE OF FATES... I WILL CLEAVE THROUGH THE STARRY SKIES...
I WILL CLEAVE THROUGH THE RED ROPE OF FATE, I WILL CLEAVE THROUGH DESTINY AND... I'LL CLEAVE THROUGH EVEN THE MOST POWERFUL KARMA..."
Saying this Yamcha turned his crippled body as his torso began to sizzle up even more as blue lights sizzled up all around him.
Yamcha turned towards the heavens, as he stared at them with the most hatred capable in this world.
"I WILL SHOW YOU THAT EARTHLINGS ARE STRONG AND RELEVANT, just watch as I CLEAVE THROUGH all the universes and SHOCK EVEN ZENO, with my strikes..."
"RAAARRRGGGHHH, YOU HEAR ME- just wait I'll Cleave Through You All!!! RAAARRRGGGHHH!!"
While he said this he still had his capsules on his body as all his items remained unharmed until a crack formed on his gi pants as the blue lightning engulfed Yamcha's capsules.
"RAAARRRGGGHHH... I WILL CLEAVE THROUGH THE STARRY SKIES..."
"I WILL CLEAVE THROUGH THE HEAVENS!!"
"💥 BOOOM... 💥BOOOOM!!!"
And after his last words, his already sizzling body flooded with blue arcs exploded outwards obliterating the whole mountain and causing tidal waves, tsunami's, earthquakes, shockwaves across the entire earth.
———_______———
Now at that moment, every being on earth could feel this such immense power rocked the world over.
And then something happened, before his last words Bulma's heart began aching as suddenly Yamcha's figure zipped through her mind, his personality, his help, his friendship, his promise, his love, his confession...
Everything flashed through her eyes as her eyes began to beam red in sadness as tears began falling uncontrollably.
She could feel he was no longer here now as she fell to the floor in uncontrollable grief, none could heal or soothe her as she turned to Korin with vengeance in her eyes.
With the most cutthroat voice ever Bulma uncontrollably let out killing intent as she began increasing her power causing her aura to flare up immensely.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO YAMCHA!!!"
No longer could she bear to be apart from her friend, her best friend, her lover, her partner, her soul mate, her other half- as she felt she'd been shattered in half.
The look on Korin's voice had already spelt it out for her already as she began to become so angry her beautiful cerulean eyes began to turn dark blue as if rain was soon going to fall.
As sure enough rain and thunder began falling from the heavens.
Korin trying his best to console patted her shoulder, as he said, "I'm sorry... Bulma he's..."
However, the bluenette didn't allow him to finish the sentence. "Don't say it, he can't be dead, right he'll come back we just need the Dragon Balls..."
Trying to keep in her anger was hard enough but hearing him to be dead annoyed her even more.
It was true she needed more strength if only she'd agreed to join in training when he'd told her, then this wouldn't have happened.
Inwardly blaming herself, yet knowing he'd probably been injured some other way regardless. She tried to clear her mind as she got back onto track...
"It's time to find the Dragon Balls again!!"
But just then Goku intervened in her seemingly good idea of a quest as he said something they'd all forgotten.
"Bulma don't you remember you created him a capsule capable of nullifying the signals put out by the Dragon Balls. And he'd had it on him at all times."
With Bulma being clueless and now even angrier saying only two words...
"Oh... Yeah..."
