Chapter 159 - Comedic Duo.

(Majin Buu-POV)

 

A day went bye bye, Buu knew this to be true from the way the heat vanished, and the sky darkened, then light again. The light was back, Buu was lucky he got his new home made, the dark would be a bad place for him to rest in, but now he could sleep in a home!

 

"Now, see… Buu hungry but Buu hasn't found dinosaur yet, or a fish. Need find some or Buu sneak some humans, yes… I can, Buu very clever." he found that with no one watching his movements and with Babidi captured by the spiky haired guy, he could perhaps take a meal from the nearby town folk for which he built his new home nearby.

 

"Haha! Buu find nearby human, maybe they have dinosaur for Buu to eat, or fish." he already dressed himself too! So he was ready to take flight, the town in his line of sight as he took off from out of his homes window.

 

Taking to the skies, he flew for a while, taking in as the light heated his face, he glanced down and smiled as the town came into view.

 

"Ah, there they is. Buu hope they got me food." he spiraled down and landed in the middle of the town. Buu felt as something bounced off of his back and he turned around, seeing a human in a metal box, he approached them.

 

"Hey human, do you have any…" the one he was speaking with took off in the opposite direction, fear evident and Buu frowned at his rudeness, he got angry and exploded.

 

"Buu b-blow!" he managed to control the explosion but regrettably the human was caught in the blast.

 

"R-Run for your lives, it's Majin Buu!" some other human began to howl out in fear, Buu turned to see even more humans! It looked like he could ask one after all.

 

(Hercule-POV)

 

Heading towards the last location Majin Buu was sighted at, his ship took on a sudden gust of wind and he overtly made sure his transport didn't lose altitude by the turbulence. An explosion the radius of the stadium rose up nearby, a town was devastated from the explosion and Hercule realized he was sweating. Wiping his brow, and the snot from, his nose, he took the transport down and landed.

 

"R-Right, now then… where's my- uh, in my capsule, t-time to stop t-this maniac." he headed out, strolling towards the devastated township, looking over at the fiery buildings, he spotted a lot of survivors heading out of the time like their lives depended on it, which it did. Some of them made contact with him but continued running, Hercule glanced towards a silhouette within fire and shadow, dust still kicked up and Hercule made out a silhouette of Majin Buu within. This was it.

 

"H-Hey, Majin Buu. Come o-out of there yeah! I've come to-" a blink, and all the fire, dust and some debris from ruined building came flying past Hercule who dodged expertly all of it by the skin of his teeth. Majin Buu looked to have exhaled as he took in a large gulp of air, breathing in. He took a step towards Hercule with confusion plastered on his big face, Hercule gulped, he continued to speak up.

 

"-H-Hey Majin Buu, n-nice to meet you, yeah! Majin Buu. You shouldn't be h-hurting the people, my friend." he swallowed, looking as Majin Buu now stood in front of him, looking at him strangely.

 

"You not run from Buu? Why human don't flee from Buu?" Hercule blinked, stepping back as the heavy-set… whatever he is stepped much closer whilst looking him over, but before Hercule could reply Majin Buu smiled, he continued speaking.

 

"-You help Buu, looking for food, dinosaur that spiky haired guy told Buu can eat, other people not speak to Buu, Buu got mad and blew up. Look at the people, they run." Majin Buu pointed behind him as Hercule took a look behind him but quickly turned back around as Buu laughed, rubbing his belly.

 

"You help Buu, where is fish, where is Dinosaur? We can eat food together if you help Buu." Hercule replied, looking at him confused but slowly, the words came out of him.

 

"Uh, well… dinosaurs, you look here-" he removed his scroll, then maneuvered through the device, before pulling up a picture of a dinosaur from the internet. Majin Buu awed at the device, but Hercule pointed to the screen display and replied.

 

"Uh see here, this here is a dinosaur-" Hercule jumped in place as Buu took the device, looking it over before throwing it upwards, then he fired a beam from the top of his dome, the scroll disappeared as it was transformed… into candy, which Buu ate.

 

"N-No Buu, uh, come with me. I'll show you, uh, we need to go out of town somewhere, you ate my scroll- that is to say, Majin Buu come with me this way!" he yelled, walking out of the ruined town while fiddling with his capsule, this was it… he could use the poison, the bombs! Majin Buu would be defeated through his stomach. Hercule heard as Buu awed him, the being spoke from behind him.

 

"Show me more of these Dinosaur, Buu still hungry. You help Buu and Buu don't want to eat you." Hercule shuddered but replied with a fake smile and chuckle, seeing that this guy was as dim as they come.

 

"Ah sure Buu, sure. We've got to head out into the wilderness, that is where we could find some of the wildlife, dinosaurs and such, then I could make you a great meal that will get you fed and watered m-my friend. Just follow me." Hercule and Majin Buu left the city to the north, opposite in which Hercule entered, hoping that no one would see him as they walked out together. Once out of the city, Hercule removed his capsule for his transport only and threw it, he heard Majin Buu awe behind him, he turned to speak to the pink chubby guy.

 

"Get in Buu, we will head out, go find these dinosaurs will be quicker using my airship. Climb aboard and don't touch anything." he entered with Buu following, the ship shuddered when Buu stepped onboard.

 

(Goku-POV)

 

"Hey, Goku, guys! Majin Buu just wiped out a town of people, he's now got the champion of the world martial arts tournament with him. They are uh, looking for something looks like." Dende flew over to them while everyone fighting, training stopped to hear him, Eighteen even growled as she replied.

 

"That man better not get himself killed; he owes me a lot." She said, Goku replied, seeing the seriousness of Buu killing more people. Though loath he would admit, fighting Buu now would just renew the struggle of resistance, taking away the allotted time he managed to obtain for them to boost their strength to a higher level. Those people could be revived, sounding callous about it aside, Goku would continue their training here and keep an eye on Buu from here with the aid of Dende.

 

"Keep an eye on him Dende, if you reckon, he's about to do something drastic, like say… putting a hole into the planet enough to destroy it, otherwise we ought to continue for now. Guys, we've each have access to gravity training capsules, we've seen where we are against one another, we should now train inside these for maximum efficiency as we have a limited timeframe. Dende, we're going to count on you to heal those who are too weak to continue training, to keep us going non-stop. So, prepare to assist us Dende." Goku said, staring towards the younger Namek. Piccolo floating nearby replied, looking at Goku and the rest of them floating in the sky with him.

 

"The day is almost over, Goku, you and I are using the room next. Unless Eighteen and you wish to, though Kron and Vegeta should be ready to fight and defeat Majin Buu, our training inside will be plan B." The rest, Tien and Yang along with the others here headed for the lookout while Goku took out his one capsule, inside a metal case filled with more capsules, among them his capsule for his gravity training center. Turning to the others who hadn't yet heard for the lookout again, each one of them looking to have been in need of some healing from the bruising and the feel of their Ki, Goku called out to Seventeen, Sixteen, Yamcha, Raditz, Zangya, Krillin, Yamcha and himself followed Eighteen, Dende, Piccolo and Pyrrha to the lookout, so they could use the gravity chambers on a flat surface, close by to Dende and his healing abilities.

(Gohan-POV)

 

Still getting used to the sword, Gohan continued to train with it, doing his usual routine, he even pulled out his own capsule gravity chamber and used it to which it surprised the supreme Kai and Kibito by what it does. He was inside, six hundred times gravity now, the last few hours before he had a break he trained in five hundred times gravity, Gohan was still surprised about how heavy the blade was but knew that his strength was rising steadily, almost unnaturally so.

 

"Yaaah Yaaah Yaaah!!" Gohan struck the air with precision, the blade swift in its movement, piercing through the air with much resistance. Gohan flipped upwards, feeling the gravity acting on him, the Z-sword too but he managed to land right up, slashing the air with much exertion, he was beginning to tire out as his hunger was growing. He decided that for now, he would take a little break, see if Shin had something for him to eat.

 

Pressing some buttons, he powered down the gravity chamber and headed out of the chamber, seeing Shin and Kibito on the ground in deep mediation, no, Kibito was just sitting as he grunted loudly as he went to stand.

 

"Master, Gohan has emerged from his gravity facility, Gohan how goes the training within?" Gohan relaxed slightly, placing the sword leaning on his gravity chamber, he replied as Shin's eyes opened and he too stood up.

 

"I'll be having a break now; I am in need of rest and food. I don't suppose your got anything to eat around here?" he asked, petting his stomach while Kibito scoffed, Shin however just smirked.

 

"Alas, you come to the right man. I will order you something. Kibito, head down to Earth, retrieve a large quantity of meals for Gohan here, you'll have to head for Gohan's friends to pick the meals up, make sure you grab enough for a couple of days. In haste Kibito, Gohan come, you'll mediate in the meantime, bring the Z-sword, you'll need to be in tune with it to continue to improve mentally instead of physically." Shin waved him over, taking a seat once more, Kibito prepared his teleportation technique while Gohan went back to retrieve the sword. Gohan took a seat next to Shin after he held the sword, breathing out and practiced his form of mediation he'd learned with Piccolo all those years ago when he was but a boy.

 

((Future) Trunks-POV)

 

Landing on the lookout, alone, he eyed those around before heading for Piccolo who now stood alone. Trunks sensed the others, they were within a few of the gravity chambers, a total of four of them scattered upon the lookouts scattered around the place away from one another with the main building of the lookout in the middle. Trunks approached Piccolo, whose gaze aimed towards him, Piccolo spoke.

 

"Trunks, you've arrived. What do you want." Piccolo stared, arms folded while turning back around facing down off of the lookout, Dende nearby didn't acknowledge either of them, his face concentrating and focused while staring down off the lookout too.

 

"To help Piccolo, is there anything I can do now? What's the current situation, you can tell me that for a start, if you don't mind." Piccolo huffed, a grunt leaving his throat as he turned to face Trunks. Trunks then listened as Piccolo explained the current situation, that of the others were training as Goku got them some time to train, Majin Buu was growing stronger and had eaten Vegeta, his father of a different timeline, Vegeta and Kron inside the hyperbolic time chamber right now and would be leaving it in mere hours. Trunks also now knew that the mass emigration of people leaving cities was the work of his 'mother' and Winter Schnee, evacuating as much people as possible as the earth could well and truly become a dead world in any moment, that was how volatile Majin Buu is.

 

Piccolo also further explained that Babidi was caught, the wizard however would never speak any coherent thoughts to anyone ever again as another woman, named Salem who also had skill with magic had ripped any useful information from the evil wizard's mind. They now had a way to seal Majin Buu once more, they just needed someone strong enough to handle the power that he could use, beat him and keep Majin Buu down long enough for the sealing to take place.

 

Piccolo also told him that the woman, Salem needed a few days to sift through the memories and information she acquired through magic before they could even attempt attacking Majin Buu.

 

"-that is that. Trunks, I would tell you now, you should stay away from Majin Buu, train with the others if you are indeed here to lend assistance. Attacking Majin Buu at this time is suicide, while it also holds the high probability that Majin Buu could also absorb your power, adding it to his own reserves. This guy is much worse than Cell in terms of gathering power through absorption, your father was the one who'd proved this firsthand after all." Trunks nodded, contemplating whether he should sit this one out or help. In the end, there was a lot of warriors preparing, Trunks however also held another tool he could use to help besides his Saiyan nature, his intelligence.

 

"Piccolo, I see… I will tell any others who ask for updates, but I think I could be more help to see the evacuation of civilians, I've seen first-hand the destruction that could be cause on my own earth, seeing it here once again has… brought back them memories. I reckon I could assist Winter Schnee and my mother with other things. Piccolo nodded, replying.

 

"Fine, then let me say, as advice, you have learned the clone technique. Use it, you might be able to do much more, try and stay away from any trajectory that Majin Buu is heading in, we do not want to push him to cause more destruction once again, much as we can anyhow. Good luck Trunks." Piccolo nodded at him and Trunks concentrated, using the technique 'Instant Transmission' heading for where his mother was currently, which looked to be a familiar island…

 

(Hercule-POV)

 

A couple hours went by, Hercule took Majin Buu away from any settlements and into the outskirts of East City, untamed wilderness. Looking around for a while, Hercule kept answering questions from Buu about whether they found any fish or dinosaurs yet, for which he'd always tell him no much to Buu's displeasure. Now though, if Buu would have asked, he would say yes for in front of them was a sizable herd of Ferocisaurus mingling around a fresh kill, He pointed out over his controls, shouting out with a little bit of laughter to get Buu's attention.

 

"Hey Majin Buu, down there. You see them, they are dinosaurs down there. Wait, let me land-" Buu blasted out of the back, taking the door off and the airship shook which Hercule fought tooth and nail to right with the controls, he managed to land though, touching down. He quickly turned off his ship, took his backpack and ran off to where Buu was punching many of the Ferocisaurus left and right, laying them out on the earth with ease.

 

"Majin Buu! Hey! Wait up, don't turn them into anything!" Buu turned to him, a look of confusion but he stopped to face Hercule, who breathed in large gulps of air, not out of breath but yelling and running is a quick way to be out of breath.

 

"Let me make you something, we only need one of these Ferocisaurus dinosaurs, you can leave the others." Hercule set down his backpack and removed his capsules, intent to remove the one which housed his cooking utensils and equipment as Buu spoke high pitched.

 

"How you want me eat? I can make eat now, what is your name?" Buu asked, Hercule never looked but he replied loudly, sorting through his cooking equipment and also placing the cyanide right next to him for later.

 

"Here Buu, allow me to make you a meal, will use the one there. Could you… kill it, we will have enough meat with just one if you allow me to show you how I make this meal for you. Oh! Right, the names is Hercule Satan, but you can call me Mr. Satan!" Buu nodded, clueless look on his face but he followed his directions, killing the nearest Ferocisaurus and allowing the others to escape, Hercule got to peeling potatoes.

 

An hour later, the smell and aromas that Hercule smelled as he cooked a sizable chunk of dinosaur meat, the large stew pot filled the air. Hercule salivated from his cooking, being an only dad, he was used to cooking for his home, he even continued to do so later after the fame and money came in for special occasions, Hercule took a large container and added one quarter of the meaty soup to it, before looking at the rest. He breathed out loudly, Buu sat nearby watching him with adapt attention, his mouth parted a little while drool left his mouth. It was time to add the 'final' ingredient, for which he would turn the remainder of this delicious-smelling meal into a death sentence for his pink friend over there. Hercule took the bag, he opened it and begun to empty it slowly into the pot, he yelled out with cheer to Buu, his nervousness making him want to try to distract the pink monster.

 

"Haha! Buu, almost ready there, a real good meal. I bet you can smell it from there yeah! Well, let me mix this… … up, uh, yeah! Come here Buu, take a seat. You can eat from the pot; you look to be hungry. This is better than eating people, eating them in one gulp yeah! Go on big guy, dig in. Haaa haaa!" he laughed nervously, but kept his cool somewhat as he waved Buu over, Buu awed as he approached, taking the piping hot pot from the fire much to Hercules confusion, he hefted it off of the fire and then… swallowed his meal, soup and pot in one large mouthful, his mouth stretched out to fit it all in in one stroke. Hercule stared, Buu slurped up the meal, swallowing it and then spitting out the pot, half-melted and he belched in contentment.

 

"Wow… Buu like that good food, make Buu some more-" Hercule interrupted him, looking at his cooking pot in shock, he stuttered, speaking up.

 

"R-Right then, uh. Hold up-" Hercule looked Buu over, who looked hungry still, Hercule looked down towards the ruined pot, the empty bag of cyanide and then towards his capsule. Hercule smiled, nervous as he spoke.

 

"Ah, sure Buu. You'll have to take as seat once again, I'll get to cooking again." fortunately, he had many pots, though Hercule used all of the cyanide, he would cook some more for his dinner and keep an eye on Buu, he swallowed the whole lot of cyanide after all. The next meal took a little longer, Hercule kept an eye on Buu but at present, Majin Buu was still alive, which only added to Hercules nervousness.

 

He still had the explosives though, guess he could put them inside the pot when he finished cooking the meal, he took out the explosives, getting ready to put the explosives into the stew, the meal was ready and so he called out to the still living Majin Buu, this time for certain that he would deal with Buu.

 

"Hey Majin Buu, the meal is ready once again! Come and get it while it's hot!" Hercule took a sit back, a content sigh as he finished his own bowl though he quickly got up and stepped back a ways further from Buu, he headed for the pot and like before, taking the whole pot into his hands, Hercule called out before he could eat the whole thing.

 

"Don't eat the pot this time Buu! I need that, when I make more right! Keep the pot intact this time alright Buu" Buu turned to him, nodding.

 

"Alright Hercule Mr. Satan." the guy ate it all, minus the pot, plus the explosives hidden within the stew and Hercule sighed, ready with the detonator.
