50 Into the Ship (2/2)
While Raditz talked with his son, the Supreme Kai fought ferociously against Pui Pui. The increased gravity was in no way a hindrance to the Kai. He was easily able to keep up with the alien as they fought through the area. Raditz's eyes focused solely on the movements of the Kai as he fought without holding back.
Babidi was upset as he watched the battle unfold in a his crystal ball. Pui Pui was expending a great amount of energy, but it wouldn't help him because the Supreme Kai's god Ki was incompatible with Majin Buu's seal. If Pui Pui lost the battle, he was sure his next soldier would be too powerful for the Kai to handle alone.
”The energy level on the seal isn't even half filled!” Babidi raged, ”At this rate it will take much longer to free Majin Buu!”
Dabura was at the side of his master watching the battle unfold. He was in agreement that it was an unforeseen setback that the Kai decided to fight. However, he was face to face with the long haired warrior and knew his power would go a long way towards the revival of Buu.
”At this rate, Pui Pui won't last long.” Dabura calmly stated, ”He was a weakling anyways.”
In the crystal ball, Babidi could see his alien henchman getting knocked into rocky plateaus one after the other. It was even worse that Pui Pui was losing, after Babidi had given him the advantage by allowing him to fight on his home turf. The wizard felt the least his henchman could do would be to gravely injure the Supreme Kai, but it seemed Pui Pui was too incompetent to achieve that dream.
Like his fatherReiss focused on how the Kai was fighting. The god's combat skill level was as low as Reiss believed it to be. What the teen underestimated, was the finesse and power of the Ki wielded by the diminutive, mohawked, Kai. No matter how much he tried, he couldn't understand the function of how the Kai's energy was being used. A quick glance to his father revealed that the emperor was just as lost as his son.
The area was showered with rocky debris from the Supreme Ki unleashing a barrage of energy blasts into a downed Pui Pui. The screams from the devastated alien reverberated out from the crater that remained from the Kai's attack. The sounds from Pui Pui died before the explosions from the blasts even finished. When the dust settled, the alien was no longer there. His existence was removed by the now exhausted Supreme Kai.
”Fantastic job!” Raditz clapped with a satisfied grin. ”It truly was a spectacular performance, worthy of a Kai.”
Reiss stared at his father questioningly. It was rare to hear the emperor praise someone so enthusiastically. Whatever the reason, the teen could tell his father really was happy about something.
”I did train for this after all.” the Supreme Kai said through labored breaths.
”I really learned a lot from your battle Supreme Kai.” Raditz continued with his praises, ”Especially that last part where you covered the area with your Ki, blasting that guard.”
Kibito ran over and helped up the tired and kneeling Supreme Kai. He was so moved by his master's performance in the battle, that he forgot the Supreme Kai might need assistance. When the tired Kai finally caught his breath, he suggested that the group continue on. Before the group reached the door leading to the next area, Kibito stopped everyone.
”Might you have another of those beans you used to heal your son, at the tournament?” he asked Raditz. Kibito saw how effective the bean was at healing injuries and restoring energy.
”Normally, I would make a big deal about a Kai asking a lowly mortal for help, but since I find myself in a good mood, I'll help.” Raditz cheerfully answered.
The effects of a Panacea bean had never been tested on a Kai before, but it worked as well on the Supreme Kai as it did on humans. He was back to full energy the instant he chewed the miracle bean. Never having experienced such a plant before, the Supreme Kai had to learn what the bean was. The Kais were surprised to learn it was an invention Raditz directed his forces to create for his empire.
Waiting for the group in the Next room was a large green monstrous creature. The monster possessed two blades on each of its forearms and stood on long reverse jointed legs, giving the creature an almost insect appearance. Its head was similar to a toads, except it was filled with a row of razor sharp teeth.
”Which one of you would like to be eaten, first.” the monster said, ”I ate the messengers sent by my master already, but it wasn't eno-”
The creature's words were interrupted by his body being bisected by Raditz. The Saiyan had in an instant moved forwards and brought his hand down through the monster with a swift chop. Kibito and the Supreme Kai stood shocked by what happened.
”We should get a move on.” Raditz said standing under a shower of purple blood.
”He didn't even hesitate!” Babidi shouted as he stared into his crystal ball. ”He ended Yakon before he even finished speaking! What do you make of this, Dabura!”
”It seems the company the Supreme Kai is keeping now aren't as pure as we thought.” Dabura answered.
”Indeed,” Babidi said as he squinted his bulbous eyes at the crystal ball. ”I didn't bother checking before, but I think the Kai's new friends might be persuaded to see our way of thinking.”
”I don't have the level of power you do master, and I can feel the darkness in the hearts of the long haired ones from here.” Dabura and Babidi laughed thinking about adding new pawns to their side.
”You should go out, they will be in your room next.” Babidi ordered after calming down.
”Yes master.” Dabura bowed and made his exit from the room storing the sealed Buu.
