Another story also incredibly different from ours was being told as the Otherworld shook with three extraordinary powers as they clashed, two of them attempting to stop one that appeared to be the embodiment of evil.
Everything around the Life and Death cycle was being eroded with the souls of those who died walking once more in the mortal plane.
A total mess everywhere, with King Yemma standing trapped inside one of the many irregularities that the evil creature had produced. He was pleading to the strongest two that they mended this.
And with his request already being filled, as a Super Saiyan 3 Goku and Super Saiyan 2 Vegeta exchanged blows with the creature who was making this much havoc.
Their attacks wouldn't do much as the creature in red and magenta colors just laughed loudly while shouting 'Janemba' or laughing loudly like a maniac.
*USH!!!* - Missing yet another straight right punch as Janemba rotated sideways, sending blitzing shockwaves ahead, Goku frowned while turning his body to try a left side kick, seeing if he could achieve something.
His moves aren't alone as Vegeta appears behind Janemba with a blue blast in his hands.-"๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐!! ๐๐๐๐๐-"
"KEKEKE!!!"- Grasping onto Goku's leg and Vegeta's neck with his tail, Janamba quickly turns the table on them.
*๐๐๐๐๐!!* - " UGAAWKK!?!"
Driving Goku's face into the ground as he runs around gliding him all over the place, Vegeta still trying to struggle out of his tail's hold.
After another lap and seeing the Saiyan in his hand's hair reduce in size to just a normal yellow spiked one, Janemba snorted loudly as he tossed Goku's body up, enough to give him time to push his arm back.
*๐๐๐๐๐๐!!* - " DAM-AAUGH!!!"
Delivering a devastating blow that sent the Earthling Saiyan flying forward with his body bent as blood was spat out from his mouth and eyes bulged with the hit.
" YOU!! INSECT!!! JUST WAIT UNTIL I-"- Not giving Vegeta time to monologue, he also repeated the same action, moving his tail swiftly to throw the Saiyan Prince in front of him, giving him enough time to spin around, creating a red-bladed sword, and striking Vegeta in his stomach with its blunt side.
*๐๐๐!!*
"AHHAGH!!!" - Sending him also scrambling after the first one. Janemba bursts into laughter as his tail moved around, his malicious grin even wider as he slowly walked forward seeing the two Saiyans try their hardest to remain up.
Clothes ripped apart, wounds and cuts everywhere, and eyes almost closing from exhaustion. This time they didn't have Support to help them complete the Fusion, it was all on their own.
Paikuhan here died as soon as he appeared to try and get King Yemma out of his prison. Being obliterated by a blast of Ki from the Fat Janemba who found him funny.
Obliviously driving Goku mad, and forcing Janemba to transform way earlier than he should, as another consequence Vegeta also materialized as an extra helping hand from above and those who couldn't deal with the creature of hell.
"This... really doesn't look that good for us, huh Vegeta.... Any ideas?"- Trembling as he breathed heavily, Goku tried to take his battle stance, finding it way harder because even with a tougher body because he was dead, the beat up he received was real.
Kneeling in place, the short one glared at the demon approaching them and pushed himself up, as tired as Goku, but also not having one drop of will to give up.
" Kakarot.... your stupid Fusion... It might be the only way out of this.... We can't let this thing escape here! HAAAH!!"- Shouting as he pushes his body up, blue lightning bolts and golden energy surges around him as his hair changes to golden.
In a spectacle of pure determination, Vegeta shows what is left of the energy he had. Seeing his plan earlier was still in Vegeta's mind, Goku couldn't help but grin as he took a deep breath, his hair also spiking up as blue bolts also came to life around him.
" Guess we need to get away first... Carefully through, that teleportation-like technique he has... It can be a pain in the ass if he starts abusing it.... I will try to catch him off guard with my Super Saiyan Three... Although it might take a second to power it up quickly, I think I can pull it off, so at least distract him for a second..."
With a serious voice and a nod from the one by his side, Goku was about to dash forward seeing Janemba already close to them, scrapping his sword on the ground as he walked. - "KEKEKE!"
" Tsk... Okay then..."- Tensing his body, Vegeta digs his feet on the ground firmly as he kicks forward in an explosion of wind and a 'boom' from the sound barrier wailing.
Appearing in front of Janemba he quickly tried a right rear uppercut that was blocked by a red sword, he didn't stop there as he moved his knee up while shouting.
Still laughing at his useless efforts, the demon used his free hand to grab the knee mid-movement planning to twist it. Vegeta seeing that frowned while pushing his left leg up in a frontal kick.
*๐๐๐๐!* - " DAMNN YOU!!!"
Finally striking under Janemba's chin with his heel which had enough force to send a gust of winds all around themselves and shake so slight 'hell' itself while shooting his head up.... Which to Vegeta's anger, with not even a scratch being made on it.
Slowly looking down at the Saiyan who knew it wouldn't be enough and already had both arms in front of him together with a glowing yellow sphere aiming it at Janemba's head, feeling his leg being crushed once more.-"๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐!!!!"
*๐๐๐๐๐๐!!*
He quickly fired a more diluted version of his Ultimate move at point blank, although not fully charged it was enough to push him away from the creature, this time with even more injuries on his side as he slid back on the pink sand-like ground of the corrupted Hell.
" Huff... Tsk.... Kakarot... Hurry up, you bastard..."
Seeing the smoke that was raised from his attack starting to disappear as Janemba steps out of it with some light scratches around him while cracking a smirk, he got ready once more.
And in record time....
*USH!* - " Thanks for the time Vegeta!!! ๐๐๐๐๐!!!"
Appearing in front of Janemba this time using Instant Transmission instead of the Rapid Movement Vegeta used earlier to give off the sensation of teleporting because of its sudden burst of speed. This time it was the real thing, Goku held by his hips with both hands a blue blast that he shot forward as soon as he appeared.
*๐ผ๐ผ๐ผ๐ผ๐บ๐ฏ๐ฏ!!!* - Covering half the body of Janemba as he grunted with the Saiyan powering even further, his hair started to grow once more and the blast got even more powerful as it shoot towards the Endless skies of the OtherWorld.
"๐๐๐๐๐๐๐!!!" - Ascending from the second level to the third of Super Saiyan as his hair grew, Goku let out a powerful roar-like-shout that echoed throughout all of Hell, even catching the attention of someone who just stepped out of a black cut in space not far away from there.

Far away from their battlefield, a girl with pink skin and white hair just arrived at her location. Looking around until she felt something coming from a particular direction, her face acquiring a thirsty grin as soon as she did so.
" Yes~ He seems to be at least decent... I don't think Lord Fu will mind if I taste him up a bit~"- Giggling to herself she sees a blue wave of energy piercing the skies on the horizon, her battle lust raised to even higher levels seeing it.
" ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ผ๐๐๐๐๐!!!!" - *๐ฝ๐๐๐๐๐!*
Dashing forward and jumping, she bursts in speed while giggling to herself floating toward the direction she just sensed the powers battling each other.

Back to the two struggling Saiyans we see Goku still in his strongest form, breathing heavily as he still holding his arms up.
Noticing that there was nothing where his blast was shot.
With widened eyes, he quickly turned around towards Vegeta, mouth opening wide as the Prince gave him a confused look, but, witnessing that there was nothing where Goku fired his Ki Wave, he immediately understood.
Looking up, he saw Janemba with a few wounds on his chest materializing from a bunch of colored cubes that grouped themselves together behind Vegeta, holding up his sword while frowning at the damage he took. He didn't quite appreciate it and was ready to slice down at the Saiyan.
"VEGETA!!! MOVE!!!
Shouting to the tops of his lungs, Goku tried to reach out for Vegeta even in his tired state, but without much energy to move he used his last bit of energy left in one last move as he clenched his teeth and while returning to his base flickered out of existence.
"Wha-*๐๐๐๐!* t...."- Appearing by Vegeta's side and quickly touching his shoulder before disappearing to somewhere relatively far away, from where they were fighting the creature. Prompting Vegeta to be annoyed at the sudden move but also grateful.
" Man... A Senzu would do me wonders right now..."- Trying to catch his breath, Goku falls to his back, and lies on the ground completely tired. Not one bit of power left in himself.
While he rests on the ground, Vegeta looks around themselves seeing multiple strange structures that seem to be made out of spikes, lowering his Ki at the best of his capabilities while taking a sit down as well to rest.
" Kakarot.... We may be able to attempt it after resting for a moment... Are you sure that would be enough to end that monster?"- Side eyeing the downed Saiyan who let out a silly chuckle.
Not even managing to sit up, he answered.-" Yeah.... That guy is crazy strong! If the Fusion Dance can't work..... I am not sure myself what will, maybe Gohan and the others will be able to take care of him in the living world? But as for right now it's the best option Vegeta..."
As the both of them finally took a breath of relief while concealing any energy they had left, Janemba was going absolutely nuts.
*๐๐๐๐๐!!*- "KEEEEE!!!"
Far away from both of the Saiyans, he started sending energy cuts everywhere as he swung his sword, not stopping for even a second, destroying the Corrupted place even more.
The pieces of what looked like floating jujube would be sliced to bits and the ground would have large and deep kilometers-long cuts.
Luckily being the Afterlife such moves wouldn't be capable of destroying everything, unlike a normal planet like Earth which would immediately implode at the sudden attack to its core if fired with enough power.
Raging left and right while snarling and lashing his tail around in anger he had already cut almost everything around himself, only the debris and large ditches of devastation surrounding him now. Frowning his eyes squirmed.
Holding onto his sword tightly in pure Instinct he turned around, seeing that in one of the many large pieces of debris he create was a pink girl with her legs crossed, eating a chocolate cupcake.
Seeing her entrance was finally noticed she gave him a small wave before stuffing her mouth full with the snack and gulping it down quickly before licking her lips. Janemba, a beast moved by instincts and evil didn't like one bit the pressure she had, and was ready to pounce any time if needed.
" Hmm~ You're not as strong as I expected, buuut... Wanna have some fun? I wanna see how strong my future buddy is going to be~"- Leaning forward, she sees him flinch, her red eyes showing great lust for battle and also having a lot of the same material Janemba was made from. Evil.
" Now~ Don't die on me okay!" - *๐๐๐๐๐!!*
"GRRR!!?!" - In Janemba's eyes she instantly appeared by his right side already moving for a sidekick, which he defended by holding his sword's handle with two hands and using the blunt side to at least block it. Although he didn't quite succeed as he was sent skating to the side while grunting loudly.
Laughing at how fragile he was, 21 once more disappeared from his vision, appearing right in front of him with a pink Ki Beam in her finger, pointing right to his nose, this time he was able to move a bit faster as his body disappeared in cubes making the Majin miss her attack and hit one of those jujubes-like structures that floated around the sky.
Her eyes blinked a couple of times as she finally noticed them, salivating as she was really thinking about going closer to one and seeing if it tasted good.
"KEEE!!!"
But it seemed it had to wait as Janemba was already behind her cutting with an overhead swing, that she easily dodged by taking a step forward. Despite missing his move the demon wouldn't give up so easily, so he started frantically swinging his sword.
Faster and faster he would try to cut her, just to see her after-images while she crossed both arms and gave him an interesting look.
" Hmmm..... You're weaker than I thought.... This is no fun..... But maybe.... *Malicious Grin*, eheheh~ Yeah, there are still some good snacks around~"- Talking to herself while weaving away from his attacks, her head snapped towards a location where a bright light came off from.
It was coming from a large spike forest far away from there, multiple colors of rainbow flashing everywhere as her smile grew to both ends of her mouth. Ducking another side slash, she disappeared from her location.

The robust light that could be seen coming from inside the spike forest now dimmed, and a new warrior opens his eyes green eyes, looking directly at where he felt the evil creature 'they' just fought and lost horribly to.
*๐๐๐๐๐!!* - In a swift movement of his hand he sent the pieces of spikes around him flying to all sides as his golden aura explodes outside.
*USH!!* - " Ouh.... I saw those kids using it... But this is something else, looks so delicious too~"
Hearing the new voice, Gogeta arches a brow seeing the girl that looks uncannily like Majin Buu. Remembering the mess the little guy caused he choose to approach this more carefully seeing she did have intelligence.
"๐พ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐?"- With a stern double voice he asks, being attentive to any movement that she could do.
Seeing his face being all serious, 21 giggles to herself pointing a finger towards him, leaving the fusion to take a stance, ready to battle it out.
" Snacks don't talk!"- *๐๐๐!!*
Firing a pink and white ray from her fingertip, Gogeta sees the attack already in front of him and backflips, successfully dodging it and using his hand on the ground to flip one more time to dodge another beam of those.
" Woow! You guys did get way stronger! I thought you were going to be like those kids of yours... they were no fun at all. Well~ At least they tasted good...."- Pouting remembering the last Fusion Dance she fought and how it disappointed her, she missed how Gogeta's eyes widened hearing that.
' She-... she what?.... Does that mean Goten and Trunks..... *clenches knuckles*....'- Gogeta's eyes frowned heavily as he gritted his teeth, not the anger of solely one man, but two being arched.
Knowing exactly what happened to them.
*๐๐๐๐!* - " ๐พ๐ฌ ๐จ๐น๐ฌ ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฎ ๐ป๐ถ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ป ๐ป๐ฏ๐ฌ๐ด ๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ถ๐ญ ๐๐ถ๐ผ ๐ฉ๐ ๐ญ๐ถ๐น๐ช๐ฌ!!!"
A sonic boom rang behind him as he dashed for 21, the Majin would maliciously grin as she saw him getting closer with a hand raised above him, leaning his body forward as he held something in a rainbow color in his palm.
Finally arriving at his objective he tried to use his Stardust Breaker to eliminate the girl, but as his hand was shot forward so he could throw it at blank-range to be sure he wasn't going to miss, all he hits is air.
"๐๐๐ผ๐!?" - A doubled uneasy voice rings out as his attack hits nothing. And his eyes widen hearing something behind him.
" Sorry~ I would love to see how you taste like this.... But I do have a mission to finish right now."- Behind him, 21 pokes her right hand to the midsection of his back, grinning maliciously with her pink ray covering Gogeta's whole body.
He didn't have time to move or shout, as soon as he heard her talk, she already hit him with her beam.
*๐๐ฎ๐๐!*
Turning into a bar of chocolate that she quickly grabbed while looking at it, having to wipe away a string of saliva that ran down her mouth.
" No, no! This isn't for you 21! I bet Lord Fu is going to like it better if I do this way~" - Snapping herself out of the trance and never lowering her grip strength on the chocolate bar as it tried to move away from her.
Having accomplished her objective she gets to flying once more and quickly arrives at a rampaging Janemba who was very pissed after having missed so many moves.
She didn't waste time, when he saw her, her hand was already by his jaw, forcing it open with his yellow eyes open wide feeling her force-feed him something down his throat.
" Maybe that gives you some brains?"- Giggling, as she takes a step back, the being created from Evil energy immediately starts to feel the effects, holding his head and dropping his sword.
Roars escaped his throat with his body trashing around, still holding his head like it was on fire. And 21 seeing this spectacle was waiting for him to complete it for her own enjoyment.
*๐๐ข๐ง๐ !*

" Eh?! WAIT! I'm done too!" - Hurrying up to get the mask she had hidden inside her Majin body, her voice peaked with a high-pitched tone, being so clumsy that she almost ended up dropping it with how much of a hurry she was in.
She strolled forward like a high school girl with a worried face, grabbing Janemba's arms with her tails and pushing them above his head, not able to do anything against the girl's power, only roaring in pain as the change wasn't completed yet.
" Ahhh~*sigh*... Guess we didn't have much time to play..."- Like a sad puppy, she pushed the mask on his face.

"๐จ๐ด๐ฌ!!! How many times do I have to say to you not to get the Time Scrolls without my authorization! I know, I was occupied with Omega-Sama but-..... Ame?"
Pushing a door open, a woman with dark blue short hair with two large fringes to each side above her head and what seems to be some sort of clock-like mechanism.
.
โโโ KRONII HERE โโโ
.
Her blue eyes were very rigid when she entered, but switched to worried when she saw an adolescent blonde whose sweat was going down all over her body, her blue eyes showed great worry as she looked at the one who looked exactly like Kro.
" *Sigh*.... Kronii..... I... almost died okay? Give me a break..... That version of Black you talked about.. He was there when I appeared, his presence was creepy as hell.... When I first teleported there, the Scroll I used didn't say anything about an irregularity of that freaking level..."
With the topic being brought up, Kronii's eyes got serious as she closed the door behind her, quickly asking for everything. They are lucky that Ame was even able to get out alive given her current power gap with those she met.
Nodding she continued explaining how she was almost caught and who seemed to appear there too, raising her Watch while pointing at it and saying how it saved her life because it basically made her presence unnoticeable while forcing her Ki to stop completely so it wouldn't be sensed.
Receiving a scolding about how that could have potentially killed her if she had done it wrong and stopped further things than she shouldn't....
"Heh... If you didn't put a full-ass on chant to return, I might just have just got the hell out of there as soon as I felt the other ones appearing...."- Deadpanning the Warden who coughed in her fist while almost choking in her own saliva.
"It was....*cough* Needed, and I didn't expect an adolescent gremlin to find it after I dropped when I fixed your Timeline.... But that's out of the question.... Fu and Black joined forces?... No, they might have taken Black by force with what you said, but still...
There's also the new guy you talked about, he might be from one of the Scrolls we couldn't attend in time.... It seems I will miss another statue being inaugurated this week...."
Hearing the woman complain about such trivial things, Ame's eyes craved holes into her even more. This would be the tenth statue of the Warden around her city already, at this point Ame just wanted to walk around and not see her face everywhere.
But she did remember something, Kronii had talked with her a bit but hearing Black talking about them really left her confused.- " Uhh.. I just remembered that Black also mentioned something about The Ancient Ones. Like he was executing their will or something, and that purple guy also spoke something about you..."
With the blonde saying that the room immediately was left in tense silence, Kronii having finally processed the information widened her eyes and bit down on her right thumb's nail.
' Wha- ..Me? Is he planning to try and steal Toki-Toki again... And what they're doing here?! I thought Divine Law impeded any interactions of this level...
Yeah, it shouldn't be possible.... That Law is strong enough to ensure there can only exist One Branch of Pillars and one Omega per Verse.... But if they did find a way to cheat it...Why would them- *eyes widen*... That's right... Mumei!'
Getting her hand away from her mouth she immediately took out what seems to be a high-tech blue smartphone out from the middle of her breasts and typed something really fast before putting it back where it was a second ago.
Leaving the younger blonde to blink, not really understanding the gravity of the situation, she took off her hat to give it a few taps to get off the dust that got stuck in it before putting it back on.
" Just give me a mission already, I don't want to stay here looking at your face everywhere I glance at... Even the lamps were changed to fit your clothes... Geez, Kronii...."- Seeing even more changes around the room that had blue shelves everywhere full of scrolls.
Rolling her eyes at the smaller girl, the warden walks up to one of the shelves, quickly snatching the blonde's watch on her way.
"HEEY-" - Ame tries to make her complaints known but Kronii is faster
" Don't worry, I am going to make an adjustment, you have more uses for it than me right now, and I need to be sure you'll be fine because what might be happening isn't small." - Smugly talking back after hearing a shout, Kronii taps the clock very lightly as multiple blue virtual clocks appear around her, and in less than a second she throws it back to Ame, who caught it being careful to not drop with a sigh of alleviation.
" You should be able to say the enchant in your head and it will work now, I had put it to be said loudly just as cosmetic, but the enchant is needed to be able to return here without cutting space like that pest of a purple demon does. *Sigh*" - Getting to one of the many shelves she quickly grabs one scroll and gives a quick look before nodding.
" This one. Keep an eye on it from time to time, it has a large connection with the timeline where the Pillars currently are, I will need to go talk to Omega-Sama again....
*tosses Scroll*
And be careful Ame. Our Time Patrollers have been decreasing by the day because of Fu and Black's shenanigans. I myself tried to fight the demon once, but he got away in he last second with a piece of my energy... Still haunts me how he somehow created that thin-... GWAK- .... Sorry Omega-Sama....
My..... ๐๐๐๐๐๐....*sigh*
Any disturbance you see, ๐ ๐๐'๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐, and immediately report so we can act according to the situation as fast as possible. This has scaled to heights it shouldn't even be possible at this point. I need to report this immediately...."
Exhausted, Kronii walks outside closing the door behind her, also feeling like someone just pinched her cheeks slightly when she was about to call Kro a 'Thing'.
Being left behind, Ame looks at the Scroll in her hand and the Watch in the other. Holding tightly with a determined gleam running through her eyes.
" Eheheh.... Knowing myself.... I don't know if I can go with only watching them die....."
