Yujio and Vaspera were excited to embark on a new adventure together. After years of friendship, they had pushed each other to grow stronger.
As they walked through a forest, they spotted a short woman meditating by a tree. Curious, they approached her.
"Who is this shortcake?" Yujio wondered aloud. "I don't know, maybe she's just training. I wonder how strong she is," Vaspera replied.
Yujio reached out to her, but she opened her eyes and asked, "What are you trying to do?" Surprised, Yujio stammered, "Oh, sorry! I saw you meditating and thought you might be strong. I'm Yujio."
Mary responded, "Well, you shouldn't just grab someone you don't know. I'm Mary, and sure, we can spar."
Mary stood up, looking up at Yujio, who was 6'3". Vaspera then cleared the area with a shockwave from his aura, giving them space to fight. They both jumped back into fighting stances, and Yujio charged in with incredible speed, delivering a powerful punch that Mary blocked with her forearm. The force caused the ground behind her to crumble.
Mary countered with a kick aimed at Yujio's face, but he dodged it by flipping away. She then charged an energy attack and blasted it at him, but he caught it and threw it back. Mary dodged, but Yujio appeared behind her, kicking her in the back and sending her flying. He followed up with three punches, an uppercut, and then teleported above her, kicking her down and creating a massive crater.
Floating in the air, Yujio watched as Mary smiled up at him. "It seems I can't go easy on you," she said.
Yujio remained focused as Mary powered up, shaking the area. She dashed at him, briefly stopping time, but he blocked her attack and spun her around. Mary countered by wrapping her legs around his head and using the air as a solid surface to launch him into the ground, deep underground, even reaching the Earth's core.
Yujio grabbed a piece of the core and threw it at her. Mary barely caught it, and Yujio appeared behind her, punching at the back of her head. She dodged and tried to counter with a chop to his neck, but he blocked it. She then attempted a knee to his stomach, which he also blocked while delivering a punch to her chest. She grabbed his arm and tried to kick him in the face, but he dodged, tossing her away and flying after her.
Yujio decided to use one of his techniques. He appeared behind her, ready to unleash "Technique number 1: one inch punch." However, Vaspera jumped in, absorbing the impact and telling Yujio it was too much. Yujio agreed, apologized, and they ended the sparring match. Mary decided to join them on their adventure.
Yujio suggested, "Why don't we try finding a whole new dimension?" Just then, a portal appeared, sucking them in and transporting them to a different realm.
The new place was vastly different, with a planet much larger than their original dimension. The energy in the air felt overwhelmingly powerful.
"What the hell is this place?" Vaspera exclaimed.
Suddenly, something fell from the sky—a person crashed to the ground, releasing immense energy.
"Holy crap, what was that?" Vaspera asked. "I don't know who this guy is, but he looks like trouble," Yujio replied.
The unknown person looked up at them, confused about how they had entered this place. Without warning, he blitzed toward Mary, nearly piercing her head, but Vaspera grabbed his arm and tore it off. Yujio then punched him in the stomach, sending him flying through mountains. Mary was shocked, having not seen him move.
"Who does that guy think he is?" Yujio asked, annoyed. "I have no idea," Vaspera replied. The unknown person got back up, bleeding from the mouth, his internal organs damaged from Yujio's punch. He quickly regenerated his arm and charged back, delivering a kick at Yujio, who blocked it and countered, cracking the guy's spine and sending him flying through the clouds.
Yujio jumped up, palming his face and launching him out of the planet, dragging him through space. He landed on the moon, slamming him down and shattering the surface. "You want to attack people you don't even know? I have to teach you a lesson, The vast silence of space was shattered as an intense confrontation erupted on the moon's sprawling surface. Yujio, unyielding in his resolve, confronted an opponent cloaked in mystery. "Damn, this guy's tougher than I thought," the figure muttered, their voice echoing slightly. Yujio's steadfast defiance hinted at exceptional strength, perhaps even surpassing expectations.
Grinning beneath his visor, the unknown combatant surged forward, grabbing Yujio with both hands. The struggle intensified, and in a spectacular display of power, the figure began dragging Yujio across the moon's terrain. The friction created a radiant heat trail, glowing brilliantly against the desolate lunar landscape. It was a sight to behold, a clash of titans leaving their mark on the surface of a celestial body.With an almost casual motion, the cloaked figure hurled Yujio into the void of space. He gazed after the swiftly disappearing silhouette, a mix of admiration and frustration flickering in his eyes. "He's probably grade 3," the figure remarked, acknowledging Yujio's formidable abilities. It was evident that this was not the end—the battle was far from over.
The next second time was erased, Yujio instantly appeared behind the opponent with his fist ready, swinging with incredible strength landing a devastating punch on the figure sending him flying back into the planet and lunging after him kicking him multiple times in the stomach before he made contact with the earth, then one final kick sending him tumbling into the earth creating a massive shockwave. Epic Showdown: The One-Inch Punch
Vaspera stood silently at the edge of the battlefield, observing the ferocious combat that unfolded before him. His eyes narrowed slightly as the figure he had been watching struggled back to his feet, his body quivering as blood dripped heavily from his mouth. His resolve, however, was not yet broken. Across from him, Yujio landed gracefully on the ground, the intense focus in his eyes signaling his preparation for a decisive move. The air seemed to shift, charged with the weight of what was to come. Yujio's voice cut through the tension, sharp and deliberate—"Technique Number 1: One-Inch Punch. "With astonishing speed, Yujio dashed forward, his movement a blur. In the blink of an eye, his fist connected with the opponent's stomach in a precise, devastating strike. The power of the punch reverberated through the air as it delivered its catastrophic effect. The opponent's body, unable to withstand such an immense force, broke down—shattering apart into fragments smaller than atoms. The sheer impact left no trace of life; the opponent was obliterated in an instant, completely destroying the reason for his existence. Silence enveloped the battlefield as the dust settled. Vaspera continued to stand motionless, his face unreadable. The fight, though brief, had been decisive and brutal—a demonstration of Yujio's unparalleled mastery of his technique.
After defeating the mysterious figure, the group continued wandering, their journey leading them through unfamiliar terrains. Eventually, they stumbled upon a vast, bustling city. Mary, curious and ever enthusiastic, decided she wanted to look for some items to buy. With little hesitation, the trio entered the city, immersing themselves in its liveliness. However, as soon as they stepped into the urban heart, Yujio and Vaspera abruptly froze. A peculiar sensation coursed through them—an unsettling yet charged presence. They exchanged a worried glance, silently acknowledging the strange energy they both felt. Before they could react further, an inexplicable force whisked them away. In an instant, they found themselves in a dimly lit chamber. Five enigmatic individuals stood before them, cloaked in mystery and radiating immense power. At the center of the room, an orb pulsated with energy unlike anything they had ever encountered. Its glow seemed to defy the boundaries of light and shadow, its presence commanding reverence. One of the five figures finally spoke, their voice resonating with authority: "What you feel is the power of the Orb of Infinite Knowledge. This artifact embodies supreme omnipotence and omniscience. It reveals one's true essence and potential. Those who come before it will gain insight into their current power and the latent strength hidden within. "The two stood in awe of the revelation. The orb wasn't just a source of immense energy—it was a mirror to their innermost selves, a doorway to understanding their true capabilities. Their hearts raced with a volatile mix of fear and anticipation. What would the orb reveal about them? And how would this newfound knowledge shape their fates? Yujio hesitated as he approached the orb, its pulsating glow filling the room with an ancient, overwhelming presence. With a deep breath and furrowed brows, he reached out and placed his hands on its smooth surface. At first, there was silence. The room seemed to hold its breath, a suffocating stillness that settled over everyone.
Then, a voice—etherial and commanding—resonated within the walls. "Yujio," it declared, echoing with an otherworldly finality, "your power surpasses my comprehension."
Yujio's eyes widened. His heart skipped a beat as he stumbled back, nearly losing his footing. A faint expression of shock and confusion flitted across his face. What did it mean? Beyond it`s comprehension? He had questions, but the orb offered nothing more.
Vaspera, clad in his usual composure, stepped forward. His gaze lingered on Yujio briefly before he turned her attention to the orb. Determined, he placed his hands upon it, mirroring his earlier action. Once again, silence reigned before the same voice rang out, cold and unchanged: "Your power surpasses my comprehension."
His lips tightened, and brows knitted in faint frustration. It wasn't the answer he hoped for; the ambiguity gnawed at him. Gritting his teeth, he pulled away from the orb.
The two stood there, sharing a moment of unspoken understanding—disappointment mingling with awe. With no further explanation from the orb, they turned away and departed the strange, enigmatic place, carrying more questions than answers.
"I remembered when i was fighting that guy, he said something about grade 3, i wonder what`s that about." Yujio spoke to Vaspera "maybe it`s something like a ranking system or something, we`ve got more questions than answers, oh geez this is gonna be a real pain." Vaspera replied
At the same time, Mary returned with several accessories. "Hey, look what I got!" she shouted. "Let's keep going," Yujio suggested.
As they wandered through the area, Yujio felt restless for a fight. His wish was soon fulfilled when another opponent crashed to the ground. Yujio quickly realized this new challenger was much stronger than the last, and a grin spread across his face. The opponent, however, said, "I don't want to fight you; I just want to talk." Yujio's smile faded as he turned away, replying, "I'm not in the mood for a chat. Leave me alone."
The stranger persisted, "I don't think you have a choice. Do you know where you are?" Slightly annoyed, Yujio glanced back and warned, "Get lost, or else." The newcomer introduced himself as Glenn and added, "I just wanted to see if you'd join a tournament. I need two more partners." Yujio turned around, intrigued. "Sure, if you had started with that, I would have answered sooner. I'll join, and my friend will come too, so that's the two you need."
