Tarble nodded and proceeded to provide them with the necessary information. As he spoke, Enzo could sense Tarble's fear and uncertainty. He knew that Tarble was not a warrior and that he was probably feeling overwhelmed by the situation.
Enzo couldn't help but compare Tarble to Gohan as to how similar they were. He wondered if he should play with his emotions to see if he also hides great potential.
'Should I try to kill his wife after I rescue her?' Enzo contemplated while his face was completely devoid of any emotions.
...
<3rd P.O.V>
After Enzo and Turles liberated Tarble from the Hakiri rebel camp, they sat down with him in the spaceship and started discussing his wife Gure, who was being held captive by the evil warlord Kanba. Tarble seemed relieved to have help and eagerly described Gure to Enzo and Turles.
"Gure is a kind and gentle soul," Tarble began. "She has a heart of gold and always sees the best in people. Her skin is a soft shade of lavender, and her eyes are like the purest emeralds you've ever seen. She's small in stature, but she has a fierce determination that belies her size."
Tarble went on to describe the planet where Gure was being held captive, a desolate wasteland known as Zoonama. He told them that Kanba had set up a stronghold there and that it was heavily guarded by his army of mercenaries.
Enzo and Turles listened intently, nodding as Tarble spoke.
"Thank you for telling us about Gure," Enzo said, placing a hand on Tarble's shoulder. "We'll do everything we can to get her back."
Turles chimed in, "Yeah, and once we're done with Kanba, we'll make sure he never bothers you or your wife again."
Tarble looked grateful, but also somewhat worried. "Please be careful," he said. "Kanba is incredibly powerful, and his army is relentless. I don't want to lose any more loved ones."
"Don't worry, Tarble," Turles reassured him. "We're the best at what we do, and we won't let anything happen to Gure or you."
With that, Enzo, Turles, and Tarble set off towards planet Zoonama, ready to face whatever dangers lay ahead.
<3rd P.O.V>
As they flew through space, Enzo questioned Tarble about the planet and its dangers.
"What can you tell us about Zoonama?" Enzo asked, his eyes fixed on Tarble.
"Well, Zoonama is a treacherous planet, with many dangers lurking around every corner," Tarble replied. "The planet is home to many creatures, and it's said that even the slightest mistake could lead to your demise."
As Enzo, Turles, and Tarble landed on the planet Zoonama, they were immediately attacked by Kanba's army. The trio quickly sprang into action, fighting off the attackers with ease. Enzo led the charge, launching a ruthless assault that quickly decimated the enemy forces.
*Woosh*
Turles and Tarble followed closely behind, their combat skills honed through years of experience but they quickly lost sight of Enzo as they could barely register him move.
Turles expertly dodged the incoming attacks, using his speed and agility to stay one step ahead of the enemy. Tarble, meanwhile, fought with a fierce determination, his desire to rescue his wife driving him forward.
<3rd P.O.V>
Enzo stood at the center of the battlefield on Zoonama, his arms folded and a confident smirk on his face.
His eyes narrowed as he saw Kanba approaching him.
"Looks like we have an audience," Kanba said as he noticed Enzo standing in front of him.
"I'm not here to watch," Enzo responded coldly. "I'm here to slaughter you."
Kanba chuckled. "You weaklings always think you can defeat anyone. But let me show you the power of a true warrior!"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
Without warning, Kanba launched himself at Enzo with incredible speed, his fists glowing with energy.
*BOOM*
Enzo braced himself and blocked the attack with ease, surprising Kanba.
"Not bad," Kanba said. "But let's see how you do against this!"
Kanba unleashed a barrage of energy blasts at Enzo, but the android simply sidestepped them and fired back with a powerful energy beam. The two blasts collided, creating a massive explosion that shook the ground beneath them.
*BOOOOOOOOOOM*
The two fighters continued to clash, their energy levels reaching new heights. The ground shook beneath them as they exchanged blows, causing debris to fly in every direction.
Tarble watched the fight, his heart pounding with fear and excitement. He knew that Enzo was a powerful warrior, but he had never seen anyone fight quite like this before.
Turles watched as well, his eyes narrowed in concentration. He had faced many powerful opponents in his time, but he knew that Kanba was no ordinary foe. Then again Turles could never picture Enzo losing to anyone.
As the fight continued, Enzo began to gain the upper hand. He delivered a powerful kick to Kanba's side, sending Kanba crashing to the ground.
*BOOOOM*
Kanba roared in rage, his eyes blazing with fury. He lashed out with his massive fists, but Enzo danced around him, striking with lightning-fast jabs and kicks.
"Don't underestimate me!!," Kanba growled. "I may not be as strong as you right now, but I have power beyond your imagination!"
Kanba's body began to grow, increasing in size until he was a towering 2-meter giant. His power level tripled, and his attacks became even more ferocious.
Enzo was momentarily taken aback by the sudden transformation, but he quickly regained his composure and readied himself for the next attack.
Kanba charged at Enzo with incredible speed, his massive fists slamming into the ground and sending shockwaves rippling through the air. Enzo darted around, dodging the attacks with ease and countering with quick jabs and kicks.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
The two fighters continued to clash, their blows echoing across the battlefield. Kanba's power and size gave him a significant advantage, but Enzo's speed and agility allowed him to evade most of the attacks.
As the fight raged on, Enzo noticed a pattern in Kanba's movements. He saw an opening and took advantage of it, delivering a brutal blow to Kanba's liver. Kanba roared in pain, his massive body stumbling backwards.
Enzo didn't let up, launching a barrage of punches and kicks at Kanba's face and chest. Kanba tried to fight back, but his movements were sluggish and slow.
But Kanba wasn't ready to give up just yet. With a fierce growl, he summoned all his remaining strength and launched a powerful blast of energy at Enzo. The blast slammed into Enzo's chest.
*BOOOOOOOOM*
Kanba sneered, his massive body heaving with each breath and he falls to his knee. "You haven't seen anything yet," he said, his voice deep and menacing.
*SWIP*
"ARGGGGGGG" Kanba screams as his right hand is severed completely from the shoulder.
Kanba with his bloodshot eyes looks at Enzo as he approaches him while holding his shoulder.
*Splutter* *Splutter*
In a desperate attempt to buy himself some time, Kanba tries to launch another Ki Blast with his remaining arm.
*Grab*
"Huh"
Kanba felt something grab his arm before he knew what happened he was kicked in his chest and into the ground.
*BOOOOM*
Enzo started using his Ikari form and held Kanba down with his foot.
*CRUNCH* *CRUNCH* *CRUNCH* "ARHHHHHHHHHHH" *Snap*
Enzo crushed Kanba's left arm and ripped it out easily as continued to hold him down with his foot.
Kanba shed tears in despair as he looked at Enzo's indifferent cold gaze while torturing him.
Enzo continued to break Kanba's bones one by one, with each snap of a bone eliciting a scream of pain from the fallen warrior.
"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH" *Sob* *Sob* *Sob*
Tarble watched in horror as the ruthless Enzo inflicted more and more damage on his opponent.
As Enzo continued to break Kanba's bones, Tarble couldn't help but feel scared by the sheer brutality of the warrior. He had never seen such a display of raw power and aggression before, and it made him wonder what kind of person Enzo truly was.
"Please stop!" Tarble cried out, his voice shaking with fear. "You've already won! He's defenceless!"
But Enzo paid no heed to Tarble's pleas, instead focusing all of his attention on Kanba. With each bone that he broke, he seemed to grow even more ruthless and savage, as if relishing in the pain that he was inflicting.
Kanba's screams echoed throughout the area, the sound of bones cracking and breaking filling the air. It was a brutal sight to behold.
Tarble watched in horror as the fight continued, unable to look away from the gruesome scene unfolding before him. The sound of bones snapping and cracking filled the air, making his stomach turn with revulsion.
"Please, Enzo," he pleaded again, tears streaming down his face. "Have mercy on him. He's defeated. You've won."
But Enzo was not swayed. He continued to deliver blows to Kanba's broken body, each one more devastating than the last.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Enzo delivered the final blow, shattering Kanba's spine with a sickening crunch. The fallen warrior let out one final scream of pain before falling silent, his body lying broken and lifeless on the ground.
Tarble could only stare in shock at the sight before him, barely able to comprehend the sheer brutality of what had just transpired.
"I...I can't believe it," he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. "Why did you have to be so ruthless? He was already defeated!"
Enzo turned to Tarble, a hint of annoyance in his eyes as if the brutal display of violence was nothing out of the ordinary.
"It's just how I do things," he replied coldly. "I don't waste time on unnecessary things like mercy or pity. When I fight, I fight to win, no matter what the cost."
"Besides...I think I made a statement here" said Enzo as he looked at the remaining Kanba's forces trembling with fear and refusing to even meet his gaze.
Tarble could only stare in disbelief at the warrior before him, unsure of what to think or feel. On the one hand, he was grateful for Enzo's help in rescuing his wife and defeating Kanba. But on the other hand, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of unease at the sheer brutality of his methods.
Enzo stepped back, his work finished and turned to face Tarble.
"You should leave," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. "Stop wasting time on useless things and look for your wife." Tarble nodded, too scared and traumatized to argue.
He quickly gathered his things and fled the area, his mind racing with thoughts of the brutality he had just witnessed.
Tarble couldn't help but think about the events that had just transpired. He was grateful to Enzo and Turles for helping him rescue his wife, but he couldn't shake the feeling that he had just witnessed something truly horrifying.
Meanwhile, Enzo remained in the area, surveying the damage he had caused. He didn't feel remorse or regret for what he had done; in fact, he felt a sense of satisfaction, knowing that he had accomplished his mission.
As he turned to leave, he caught sight of his own reflection in a nearby puddle. The image that stared back at him was that of a cold, calculating warrior covered in his opponent's blood, one who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
It was a stark reminder of who he was, and the price he had paid for his power.
In the end, the brutal fight between Enzo and Kanba served as a reminder of the cost of power and the lengths some are willing to go to achieve it.
While Enzo may have emerged victorious, the toll on his humanity and his soul was a high price to pay.
Enzo especially started feeling more detached from everything as he found out this whole world is just fictional.
*Step* *Step*
With a cold calculative glint in his eyes, Enzo approached one of Kanba's henchmen and asked for the location of Tarble's wife.
