Jayr POV - Challenge Space - ???
Despite the immense pain of having most of my body disintegrated in an instant, I quickly focus on what is important and through sheer will and the power of my soul, I unleash my Spiral Cosmo to once again use the Dark Resurrection Technique that quickly regenerates my whole body in a matter of seconds.
Son Goza's response to my resurrection is one of complete calm and confidence as he looks at me with his arms crossed and coldly comments, "As expected you are still alive... I thought so when the Concepts didn't immediately declare me the winner when I disintegrated your body. You have a crazy regeneration factor just like Majin Buu. That's quite annoying..."
Hearing that, I smile wryly and say, "Well, I thought it would be a smart decision to gain some kind of "immortality" considering the fact that among my possible opponents, there are incredibly dangerous races just like the Saiyan from Dragon Ball who can blow up a planet with little to no effort or impossibly strong being who can erase multiple universes on their whims..."
In response to that, Son Goza frowns for a moment before he asks, "Immortality? Is this the reason behind your confidence?" then he shakes his head and says, "It's naive to rely on something like that to win this kind of battles. Even more so when there are many ways to bypass many kinds of immortality. On top of that, I'm not even sure if you are truly actually immortal or just have a crazy healing factor."
After saying that, Son Goza uncrosses his arms and releases his golden aura, and then he says, "I suggest you give up. At this point, it is pretty clear that you are no match for the current me. Sure you are powerful, but in front of absolute power, there is nothing you can do. I'm way too fast and powerful and your attacks do not harm me anymore. At this point, there is nothing you can do. This battle will only prolong your suffering needlessly. I don't like to bring suffering to my opponents but I will do it if there is a need. Give up!"
In response to his arrogant words, I grin and with a chuckle, I ask, "Hehehe. Do you think that I can't do anything? I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm nowhere close enough to be done yet. I still have a few trump cards to play that will surely be able to turn this situation around. And I'll pull one out right at this moment."
After saying that, I close my eyes briefly focus on a part of my being that I have kept locked for quite some time before I open my eyes staring right at my opponent and call out, "Metamorphosis, Advent of the Divine Dragon Lord!"
In response to that, I'm immediately enveloped in a pure golden cocoon of Spiral Cosmo, and then, my body starts to change not only in size but also in shape.
Indestructible armor-like scales grow on my skin, a huge pair of wings grown on my back which are quickly followed by a long, sinuous tail that grows from my tailbone.
My hands and feet become razor sharp claws, my faces becomes a long, pointed snout while sharp edges come out from my knees and elbows, in a matter of moments, my body changes from a humanoid one to a fully dragonic body taking a form that is very similar to the Felgrand Dragon of Yu-Gi-Oh.
As soon as my transformation is complete, the pure golden cocoon disperse revealing my majestic appaerance making the massive giant-like Son Goza look much smaller now in comparison to my current size.
In response to my transformation, Son Goza looks at me and with a confident smirk on his face, he says, "Transforming into a big dragon? This is your trump card? It's pretty pointless, you just became a bigger target!"
Shortly after saying that, Son Goza once again moves at speed faster than light appearing in front of my snout in an instant, then he throws a powerful punch with the clear intent of directily crushing my head, but then his confident expression turns into a dumbfounded one as his fist lands right between my eyes without causing any kind of damage whatsoever.
At the same time, I take advantage of this small opening to quickly retaliate as I open my maw and move to bite him, but then Son Goza snaps out of his surprised state and quickly retreats avoiding getting mauled by my sharp fangs.
Before he can regain his bearing, I gather the Spiral Cosmo to a special location within my mouth and aiming at my opponent, I let out a deafning roar unleashing a massive laser-like beam of spiraling pure golden flames that head toward my target at speed faster than light.
But before my Dragon Breath can reach its target, Son Goza's body is enveloped by his golden aura and then he quickly flies out of my Dragon Breath's path, safely dodging my counterattack.
Shortly after his hasty dodge, my Dragon Breath continued advancing undettered and soon it pierced through the ringed planet Saturn blowing it up in a few instants just before I cut off the supply of Spiral Cosmo allowing the Dragon Breath to disperse before it can cause more collateral damage.
Seeing that, I can't stop myself from thinking, 'Oops... Luckily this isn't a real place and is completely devoid of life so no harm done. Anyway, I have to be a little more careful I did not practice the use of the Dragon Breath that much. After all, the only times I used my Dragon Form until now were when Tio wanted to get frisky with me in a more "wild" way or when playing with Kharna and teaching her how to control herself in her Dragon Form.'
At the same time, Son Goza took advantage of the opening created by my momentary distraction caused by the accidental destruction of Saturn to attack me.
He closes in and places both his hands above the head with the palms facing in my direction and one hand in front of the other with the fingers going in opposite directions as he gathers a truly insane amount of Ki in mere moments.
Then he thrusts his hands forward and calls out, "Masenko!! " firing a massive, powerful beam of green energy that quickly flies toward me at a speed faster than light. It doesn't give me any time to reach, hitting me right on the chest, exploding with such force that it blasts me back by a quite far distance.
But despite the immense force and power behind his attack, Son Goza's Masenko wasn't able to actually harm me as the defensive power of my Spiral Cosmo enhanced scales is almost comparable to that of Crateris God Cloth making so that the only proof that his Ki Blast actually hit me is the smoke coming out of my unharmed chest.
Son Goza quickly catches up with me with the clear intent of continuing his assault, but he suddenly stops, narrows his eyes and a frown forms on his face as he notices that his overcharged Masenko didn't even leave a small mark on my scales despite being totally hit by a full force Energy Wave with more than enough power to completely destroy one of the reinforced planets of this battlefield.
After staring at me for a few instants, Son Goza snorts out loud and comments, "Hmpf! So this is what your Dragon Transformation does? It greatly increases your offensive and defensive power in exchange for losing some speed and agility because of the increased mass and size. It reminds me a lot of the Oozaru Transformation. I admit that it is more annoying than I thought at first, but that doesn't change the situation all that much. This is just a temporary stall. I'm still much faster and more agile than you which makes hitting me almost impossible for you, and sure at the moment, I also can't harm you because of the incredible defensive power of those scales. But that is only at the moment as the more we fight the stronger I become thanks to my state as a Legendary Super Saiyan, on top of that, thanks to my Super Saiyan 4 Transformation, I don't have to worry about my body being unable to endure the surging Ki and explode. You don't have any chance, your loss was decided the moment you challenged me in a pure battle!"
Hearing that, I can't help but smirk and ask, "Is this why you are talking so much? To buy more time for your Ki to increase to a level where it can actually harm me?"
Seeing him reply to my questions by showing me a playful grin, my smirk grows bigger as I ask, "By the way, don't you find it very strange that I simply let you talk and buy time without attacking you? After all, even if we aren't mortal enemies or even dislike one other, this is still a very important battle for both of us. So why pull my punches and simply wait for you to finish speaking without even trying to take advantage of it, giving you all the time you need? Moreover, are you sure that there is truly nothing I can do to harm you?"
In response to my questions, Son Goza's grin stiffens as he becomes baffled for a few moments as he realizes the truth behind my words.
Then before he can say anything else, I will my Spiral Cosmo to change into Magic Power as I unleash one of the Spatial Magic I created back in the Arifureta Universe, "Speculum Labyrinthum! (Labyrinth of Mirrors!)"
At the same time, as I chant this spell, a myriad of massive mirror-like gates open all around us, and not giving Son Goza the time to realize what is going on, I fly into one of the gates finding myself in a spherical space of around 100 meters in diameter.
All around me, there are mirror-like gates that show images of Son Goza who is looking around with a confused expression on his face, but they are all from different positions and perspectives, and with a smile, I say, "Now, it's my turn to attack."
After saying that, I open my mouth and use my Magic Power to form a black magic circle in front of my snout before I use it to cast an endless barrage of Sagitta Magica, Series Obscuri that randomly flies toward the various mirror-like gates all around me as long as I supply my Magic Power.
After that, I close my mouth and watch as the countless black projectiles of Magic Energy fly into the gates and assault Son Goza from all possible directions.
At first, Son Goza tries to dodge the Sagitta Magica, Series Obscuri coming at him from all directions, but soon he finds himself overwhelmed by their sheer numbers so he encases himself in a bright green energy barrier that protects him from the relentless assault, pinning him down in place.
Seeing that, I comment, "Now you can't dodge." before I gather the Spiral Cosmo to a special location within my mouth and aim at the image of my pinned-down opponent in one of the gates, I let out a deafening roar unleashing a massive laser-like beam of spiraling pure golden flames that head toward my target at speed faster than light.
This time my Dragon Breath hit became true as the laser-like beam of spiraling pure golden flames swallowed my opponent's whole body, but despite that, his Energy Barrier held strong against the destructive power of my Dragon Breath
Unfortunately, I can't increase the power of the Dragon Breath anymore as it is already at the limit of what the gate of the Speculum Labyrinthum can endure and with any more the spell will collapse causing the interruption of the flames stream.
Because of that, the only thing I can do is to continue with the current output hoping to put some major strain on Son Goza's Ki reserve until he is unable to hold the energy barrier any longer and he gets disintegrated by the Dragon Breath.
Basically, it becomes a battle of attrition, luckily I'm absolutely confident in such battles as I basically have a limitless amount of Spiral Cosmo at my disposal.
A couple of minutes pass without any obvious change while my Dragon Breath tries to outlast Son Goza's Energy Barrier, but soon I realize that Son Goza's Ki isn't decreasing at all, in fact, it keeps getting stronger and stronger proving once again how troublesome is a Legendary Super Saiyan as an opponent.
Suddenly, I sense Son Goza's Ki spike even more as a red glow radiates from his entire body and he yells, "This is it... I won't play around anymore... I will show the power of a Legendary Super Full Power Saiyan 4!!"
Then Son Goza lets out a fearsome roar as the Energy Barrier protecting his body fades away and in its place, he unleashes a massive and powerful explosion of Ki from his entire body that blows away my Dragon Breath and quickly expands to cover more and more area.
Seeing that the Ki Explosion is about to reach all the mirror-like gates surrounding Son Goza, I don't waste any time and quickly rush out of the Mirror Space created by the spell Speculum Labyrinthum and retreat until I'm out of the Ki Explosion's range.
Watching the figure of Son Goza from the distance as his body radiates that menacing red glow, I can't help but click my tongue while thinking at an extremely fast speed, 'Damn... That guy truly keeps getting stronger without any apparent limit. If it continues like this it may be possible for that guy to unleash the Legendary Super Full Power Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker Form... Oh my Goddess, that truly is a mouthful! The names for the Saiyan Transformation are truly getting out of hand. I won't even be surprised if the next new transformation is called something like Super Saiyan God of Destruction Beyond Super Saiyan Perfected Ultra Ego-Instict Raging Limit Breaker...'
Before my mind can wander even more around some random topics, I mentally slap myself and focus back on the ongoing battle while thinking, 'At this point, it is pretty clear that I won't be able to defeat him in my current state no matter what I try. It seems that I truly have to pull out one of my trump cards, but which one is the best for this situation?'
At this point, I started to think about my options, 'Using the Ultimate Technique I created over these years is way too much, on top of that, I still haven't fully mastered the delicate balance between Anti-Spiral Cosmo and Spiral Cosmo needed to complete the technique which means that it could easily fail. One way to bypass that problem is by using that "State" but if I use that, the Ultimate Technique will surely feel like an overkill as by itself that "State" is very likely one of my greatest and most powerful Trump Cards. After all, it is the result of more than 20 years of hard work, ingenuity, battle experience, intuition, creativity, and sheer willpower. But despite that, I still can't hold that "State" for a long time and I'm not even sure if I can use it when I need it, after all, my first success with pulling it off was very recent. This leaves out only THAT Transformation is the most likely choice. Not only it is something that I have already fully mastered, something very different from the other two, but it also seems quite fitting as well because I'm facing the very thing that inspired me to create that Transformation in the first place.'
Coming to that conclusion, I stare at Son Goza who is slowly floating toward me with a cold expression on his face and with a smirk on my face say, "Since you decided to stop holding back, I will do the same... After all, this isn't even my final form! Witness the might of my Ultimate Metamorphosis Magic... The Ascension of the Divine Dragon Lord!!"
Shortly after calling out the name of my next transformation, I curl my body and start to fill every single cell of it with Spiral Cosmo making full use of its natural capacity to induce Evolution that it has inherited from the Spiral Power of the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann Universe.
At the same time, I fully activate my Divinity over Dragons and make sure to fuse it with the Spiral Cosmo contained within my cells while willing my whole being to further evolve.
In response to my will, the fusion of Spiral Cosmo and Divinity spill over and covers my curled body into a massive bright, pure golden sphere which immediately starts to shrink applying immense pressure on my body that becomes more compact and starts to evolve in response to the combination of both internal and external pressure.
I feel my draconic body quickly shrinking and taking a more humanoid shape, the wings retract into my back, and my pointed draconic snout retires as it becomes once again a humanoid face but I still retrain my horn, and the same can be said about my draconic tail, I also feel my hair growing back leaving exposed only the horns on top of my head and then growing even longer until it reach the upper part of my legs, the scales become compressed to the point that they form an almost seamless armor, the sharp edges on my legs retire back into my body while those on my elbow become smaller and more conic.
The end result is a humanoid body that is around 2,5 meters tall, full of solid and very powerful muscles fully covered in golden and grey scales with the golden ones covering the legs, tail, lower arms, and shoulder area while the gray ones are covering the feet, upper arms, hands, torso, neck, and face.
To be honest, my current appearance is a mix between a Super Saiyan 4, a member of the Frost Demon Race in their True Form, a bit of Cell, and obviously my own Dragon Form, something that is somewhat normal considering that those are the main sources I used to create the image of this transformation unique to me in my mind.
(Image Here - Jayr Humanoid Dragon Form)
As soon as my transformation is complete, the bright, pure golden sphere formed by the fusion of my Spiral Cosmo and Dragon Divinity that enveloped my body disperses into motes of golden light while I gently uncurl my body and take a relaxed standing stance.
At the same time, I see Son Goza's figure standing just a few meters away from me with his arm crossed and a cold expression on his face while the menacing red glow of the Super Full Power Saiyan 4 still radiates from his body.
He looks at me and lets out a snort before he comments, "Hmpf! So you still had another transformation hidden, huh? I can't help but notice some familiar semblance over here. Aren't you worried that we are going to sue you for copyright?"
Then shortly after saying that, he added, "And by the way, did you truly have to quote Frieza for that? I mean for you it may be nothing but something to joke about but for me who faced the guy when I was very young it brings nothing but bad memories..."
Hearing that, I calmly reply, "Sorry about that I just couldn't hold back the temptation was just too strong. I mean, I'm fighting an actual Saiyan and I did have another transformation to pull off. How could I not quote such an iconic phrase!?"
In response to that, Son Goza shakes his head before he focuses back on me and says, "Enough of that pointless chitchat. We can have a friendly talk after this battle is over. Now let's focus back on the battle. I'm going to end this now!"
Immediately after saying that, Son Goza makes his move as he rushes at me and starts to deliver a quick series of universe-shattering blows at a speed faster than light.
In response to that, I simply stand still with a confident smirk on my face as I let Son Goza's blow land on my body, and each time his fists, elbows, legs, and knees impact with my body, strange shock waves radiate outward making all the nearby celestial bodies shatter upon contact with them.
Despite the incredible power behind each one of his blows, I calmly remain standing perfectly still with the same confident smirk on my face that with my current appearance may even look a little bit evil because his attacks have no effect on me whatsoever as the compression of my Dragon Form caused by the transformation into a Humanoid Form and the fact that my current body is completely filled to the brim with the fusion of my Spiral Cosmo and Dragon Divinity enhanced my overall abilities by an utterly ridiculous amount.
In fact, one of the reasons why I'm not moving is because I feel that with a simple careless movement, I'll be able to easily rip open the very fabric of time and space of this battlefield.
Something that is quite telling considering that this whole battlefield was reinforced by the Concepts themselves.
Noticing that his offensive is not having any effect, Son Goza frowns and without any hesitation, he flies back creating some distance between us before he builds up his Ki and takes the iconic stance as he slowly calls out the name of one technique that is part of the embarrassing dark history of many generations, "Kaaa... meeee..."
He cups his hands and draws to his side and the ever-increasing amount of Ki is concentrated into a single point between his cupped hands to the point that it takes a bright green hue, "Haaa... Meeee..."
Then Son Goza's hands are thrust forward as he yells, "HAAAAA!!" shooting out an utterly massive, streaming, powerful beam of green energy toward me.
Seeing that, I carefully raise my right hand with my index finger curled on top of my thumb, and as soon as Son Goza's Kamehameha is close enough, I flick my finger easily deflecting the massive energy wave upward forcing Son Goza to cut off the flow of Ki.
But despite seeing that, Son Goza doesn't give up yet, and without wasting any time, he yells, "This isn't over yet! I still have my most powerful technique! I don't believe that even that will be ineffective!"
After saying that he smirks as crimson lightning strikes around him, and then he begins gathering streaks of greenish-white light, pulsing crimson and green bolts of Ki before holding his index and middle fingers of his right hand to his forehead.
Once he has gathered an insane amount of Ki, Son Goza yells, "Special Beam Cannon!!" bringing his charging arm forward while holding it with his other arm to support it and extending forward the fingers to fire a brilliant green beam composed of two thin energy beam one flying in a straight line while the other coils around the straight beam.
As Son Goza's Special Beam Cannon advances at a speed much faster than light, I decide that it is time to end this and without any hesitation, I throw an impossiblily powerful punch.
One so strong that not only did it completely blow away Son Goza's Special Beam Cannon, a beam with enough power to actually be capable of piercing through the fabric of reality, but the concentrated shockwave from the punch alone is also potent enough to rip apart the time-space in front of me in a straight line leaving behind a dark empty void that pierces through Son Goza's chest leaving an empty hole in the area of his heart delivering a fatal blow to him as the rest of his body disintegrates quickly after.
At the same time, the concentrated shock wave quickly moves on until it reaches the very limit of this galaxy-sized battlefield and pierces through them as it disappears in an endless and chaotic abyss outside of my Cosmic Awareness's range.
The next instant, Culture's joyful voice is heard as he declares, [The winner of the Battle and of this Champions Challenge is Jayr Pucci, the Man of Culture! As the Winner, Jayr will grab the power of Son Goza's Blessing to empower and evolve his own, meanwhile, the Champion of Void will lose his Blessing together with the powers it granted, his Soulbound Territory, and the capacity to explore the Omniverse on his own.]
