Chereads / Dragon Ball The Next / Chapter 81 - Usubeni

Chapter 81 - Usubeni

I don't want to do this. I can't let her destroy everything. A voice rang inside 21's mind and this was the reason for her separating into two entities.

"Another one." Goten frowned when he first saw that.

But then he thought that this might be a similar case to how Buu separated himself into two parts.

The Good one and the evil one.

"Stop. What you are doing." New 21 said to 21 as she tried to stop her from going after Piccolo and 18.

New 21 seems to possess more intelligence than 21. But it seems that she is weaker too.

But at least she is the strongest ally that they have.

Despite being the weaker one among the two, 21 her powers were not suppressed and she is still stronger than 18 and the new Super Perfect Cell.

"21. Is that you?" 18 said as she looked at the new 21.

"18. Don't get distracted. We still need to defeat the evil one." Piccolo reminded her.

She nodded as she and Piccolo prepared to help the new 21.

"Light Granade."

"Photon Blast."

The two of them launched their strongest attack at 21 while she was preoccupied by her new self.

The two attacks hit the two 21 as an explosion occurred. The new 21 also seems to have gotten a little injured by the explosion.

21 looked at her new self with disgust and used a Connoisseur blade to cut off her body.

"Savory Slicer." The new 21 said as she also pulled out an energy blade similar to 21's Connoisseur blade to protect herself.

The two of them started to swing their energy blade at each other.

It was like looking at two people fighting with swords in a fantasy Asian drama.

They were moving at very fast speed and their fighting styles were evenly matched despite being very different.

21 fights like a mad woman swinging her energy blade like a berserker warrior.

While the new 21 is like an elegant swordsman who does not go for killing blows.

New 21 is fighting without any intention to kill. She just wants the real 21 to stop the madness.

"18. She has the remote controlling the wave machine inside her left arm. Just destroy it and those two will be able to regain their powers." New 21 yelled out to 18.

"Inside her arm? Like in it was inside them?" 18 was shocked by her words.

When Piccolo heard that he was pissed that 21 blocked the hell zone attack a while ago as it might have destroyed it if it landed. He was not 100% sure but there is a possibility.

"I guess she could do that because she had Majin Cells," Piccolo said as he looked at 21.

From what New 21 said it seems that the remote control that is controlling the wave machine and suppressing everyone's power is inside 21's left arm.

New 21 would have gotten the remote herself if she could but she was just barely hanging on to her life from 21's restless assaults.

21 tried to stab the new 21 with the blade. New 21 who is not fast enough to evade the attack has to push it back by force.

"Keeeee." 21 then dives in as she stabbed new 21 in her chest.

"Solar Flare." New 21 said as she used the solar flare to blind 21 just enough for 18 to prepare a destructive disc that sliced off the left arm of 21.

"!" 21 was shocked that her arm was sliced off.

A remote was revealed as the arm that was cut off started to fall from the sky.

"There it is," Piccolo said as he used a huge ki blast to destroy the arm that was cut off along with the remote.

The effects of the barrier started to wear off as Goten's full power returned to him.

He immediately transformed into his Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan form which is combined with the Ultimate form.

"I got it," Goten said that a large amount of ki was gathered in his right arm.

At first, he was trying to gather as much energy from his surroundings but with his power returning he didn't even need to gather energy from someone like Piccolo or 18 anymore.

"Piccolo. 18. Get out of the way." Goten said as he held a spirit bomb that had half of his ki in his right hand.

It was a smaller variant but that is because Goten wanted to condense the ki within the spirit bomb instead of making it a huge ball.

"Haaaaaaa," Goten said as he launched the Spirit bomb at 21.

"Get down." 18 said as she tackled new 21 away from 21 to avoid the Spirit bomb.

21 sees the spirit bomb and tries to destroy it by using a Majin Kamehameha.

"Kaaaaaaa." She does not say the name out aloud but from her posture, anyone could tell that it was a Kamehameha.

Goten's ki control was already very impressive before his training with Goku from the past but it has increased by leaps and bounds after his training. He needs better ki control to master instant transmission.

The spirit bomb evades the Majin Kamehameha and hits the android 21's body.

It didn't explode immediately as it carried her away from the earth.

-------------------------------

On the moon.

"Hey. What was that?" A rabbit who was making Mochi with two humans said as he saw 21 who were being pushed into space by the Spirit bomb.

It continues to travel for a while with 21 before exploding.

Allowing the rabbit and two other humans to not get affected by the explosion.

"It's kind of beautiful." The rabbit said as he looked at the explosion.

------------------------------

18, Piccolo and the 21 that survived looked at the explosion.

From the earth, it looked like the explosion was almost as big as the moon.

But considering that it went past the moon until the inhabitants of the moon were not affected by the explosion, it is significantly bigger.

I wonder if she could have fought back if she had normal intelligence. Goten thought in his mind.

The biggest reason why 21 was taken down without Goten and others having to fight against her until they were close to death is that 21 becomes a mindless monster after 16 is absorbed.

Not mindless as in an insanely stupid monster that only thinks with its emotions but as in a mindless monster that was unable to think at all.

She has terrible ki control but she can dominate the new 21 who is many times stronger than the new Super Perfect Cell.

And that is while she had to deal with Piccolo and 18 who were attacking her from the sideline.

She also fought New Super Perfect Cell, Super 13 and Goten one after the other before she had to deal with New 21, Piccolo and 18.

If she had been smarter and used something like instant transmission to get out of the Spirit Bomb or destroyed the planet as a whole before the Spirit bomb was completed she would have won.

Or if she was able to absorb Cell and gain some intelligence in the process things would be looking much different.
