Kibo made a dozen hand signs before he raised his hand to his mouth and shouted, "Breath of the Star God!"
Purple and Gold Flames shot out of Kibo's mouth and covered the sky in an ocean of fire.
Vegeta quickly backed up and tried to create some distance between him and the flames.
However, the fire seemed to have a mind of its own. The goldy fires chased after Vegeta several times, attempting to engulf his whole body in scorching plasma.
Vegeta continued to speed up constantly. But the flames always seemed to be moving faster.
By teleporting large distances away multiple times in a row, he was able to stay out of reach. However, each time he escaped, the flames rushed to his side once again.
Realizing this wasn't getting him anywhere, Vegeta powered up to the limit of his strength and punched out wildly.
The moment the Saiyan attacked the fire, holes appeared in the flames in the shape of his spinning fists. However, a clone of Kibo appeared behind Vegeta and swung down with Oblivion in an attempt to cleave him in two.
The sword traversed from the top of his neck to the bottom of his chest.
In the heat of the moment, Vegeta reacted without thinking. A split body formed out from Vegeat's front and countered the blow by taking the hit.
The clone was split in two before being turned into pure energy and flowing back into Vegeta's body.
Another Kibo clone appeared and made a dozen hand signs before shouting, "Fire Swordgod's Array!"
The gold and white flames surrounding the two fighters before it circled Vegeta in a very peculiar manner. The fires then lined up in an orderly fashion and formed into a giant Array of glyphs and symbols.
Vegeta suddenly felt the temperature skyrocket while his skin turned red, his blood boiled, and his bones began to dry up.
The clones vanished, returning to their Cultivation Caves while the real Kibo appeared above the center of the Array. He then struck down with a blinding draw so fast, that both time and space seemed to warp around the edge of his sword.
All of the flames gathered by the Array focused at the center of Kibo's sword stroke. The godly fire took the shape of a massive sword and merged into his swinging blade, adding powerful Sword Intent into his attack.
The power of the fires roared to life as Kibo shouted, "God Slaying Art; Immolation Swordgod's Wrath!"
Kibo's sword beam blasted out towards Vegeta's midsection alongside Oblivion's sharp edge.
Vegeta reacted in an instant. He toughened up his body while shouting, "Adamantium Skin Spell!"
The spell that Vegeta used was a fusion of all the defensive spells he collected throughout his life. His Ultimate Defensive Spell, Adamantium Skin.
The spell caused Vegeta's entire body to harden to the point that a steel-like sheen glimmered off of his skin.
Every blood cell, nerve, and muscle, all transformed into an insanely durable metal that would give Katchin, the hardest known steel in the universe, a run for its money.
Vegeta punched out with everything he had and pushed his Kai-Kokoro-Ken to its limits. Thanks to learning a few of Gogeta's methods from Whis, combined with what he had learned from Kibo's methods, Vegeta managed to break the limit on his Kokoro-Ken Spell.
The downside to the advancement was Vegeta had to make a choice, he could choose a ridiculous mana drain that would eat up 10% of his total mana per second, or, he could allow his body to take a burden in exchange for a lower mana consumption of .10% of his Mana per second.
Its new limit was a bit higher than Goku, allowing him to reach 12,500 Times his current power, not even Goku had managed to break the 10,000 Times method, yet.
This was Vegeta's new ace in the hole for fighting Kibo and his rival.
Adding in his Adamantium Flesh, his body was able to handle far more strain than ever before.
Vegeta's power and defense skyrocketed to a point, where, not even he was sure what his full power was capable of.
The two slammed into each other with their full strength when Vegeta suddenly felt pain and backed off by teleporting away.
"Metal wasn't a good choice. Fire can both support and destroy that element," Kibo grinned as he watched Vegeta appear a few dozen feet away.
Purple and Gold flames singed Vegeta's hand as he stared at Kibo in awe.
Steel blood dripped through his embered metallic skin as Vegeta thought, "If I had stayed in contact any longer, no doubt my skin will turn into slag.
Looking over to see if he did any damage.
Kibo barely budged. He was a little scuffed up from the collision, but mostly unharmed.
Vegeta laughed as he healed his wound with a Full-Heal. He then roared out as his aura surged into the heavens.
"Oozaru's Great Fist; Absolute Zero Punch!" Vegeta yelled as he charged forward.
Ice Magic intertwined with Vegeta's Ki the ape image appeared behind him once more. However, this time the energy construct's fur was a light bluish-white color.
Vegeta was surrounded by a whirlwind of icy fragments as his punch slammed into Kibo's stomach.
The icy Aura combated against Kibo's flames and sent him flying out into the void once more.
Vegeta flew after and continued to pound against Kibo's body dozens of times.
Every time Kibo was hit, his body was shrouded in ice that felt like it could freeze hell itself.
Kibo's body suddenly stopped flying back as he suddenly grabbed Vegeta's fist, and swung out his blade towards Vegeta's neck.
Vegeta raised his free hand and shouted, "Big Bang Collapse!"
Kibo quickly let go as he saw the pitch-black Big Bang Attack collapsing gravity into a single point.
Kibo then made a few one-handed signs before shouting, "Sealing Formation!"
Before Kibo could act, Vegeta unleashed his attack. A large gravity well wreathed in gold lightning took the shape of a beam before it blasted out at Kibo.
The massive attack crashed through anything that got in its way. Space, time, Kibo's Sealing-Array, all of it shattered away like glass.
Kibo grunted as he waved his hands and released his Domain to repair the damage to his inner world.
Looking at the cracks in his reality, Kibo unleashed his God Essence and let it run rampant in all its fury.
The laws in his Inner-world instantly started to constrict and repress the power of Vegeta's assault.
Kibo then activated his Asura Beast-God Mode and then attacked by drawing all three of his blades in quick succession.
"God Slaying Art, Overlord's Slash!" Kibo yelled as he lifted the swords above his head and swung down as if he were trying to split the universe in two.
Three red and black blade beams cut down vertically, merging into one beam that threatened to engulf everything.
The attack acted in a similar manner as a black hole did, getting stronger as it absorbed Vegeta's attack.
The Saiyan King could do nothing while the black beams surrounded by a crimson glow shattered his metallic defenses and sent him flying.
The giant Asura avatar suddenly made a series of hand signs as Kibo shouted, "God Slaying Art; Sword Array; Eternal Pursuit!"
Kibo's giant swords came alive as they charged towards Vegeta like comets. The swords chased him continued to assail Vegeta cutting him open several times while he blocked or punched the weapons away.
Vegeta's bloodied body was close to death while the situation modifier set in his favorite spell activated.
The Auto Heal Spell toggled on and gave Vegeta's body a full cure before using a Regen-Max Spell. The wounds on the Saiyan King vanished and his skin's steel-like luster returned even durable than before.
Kibo's swords started to cut into Vegeta's flesh as they flew around him like possessed items. Every time Vegeta moved to evade or block, the swords would anticipate his movements and strike a grievous blow to Vegeta.
Cut and healed over and over again, Vegeta's body started to grow stronger for every wound he suffered. Thanks to being a Super Saiyan Green, the Zenkai Boosts he was receiving were constantly improving his base form.
As his mana grew stronger, the durability ratio on his Adamantium Skin started to raise with it.
With the rebirth of his fleshly body, Vegeta's potential was undergoing a massive evolution.
It was like coal being pressed into a diamond. The pressure from Kibo's power started to force Vegeta to reach an entirely new plateau of power.
As time slowly passed by, Vegeta started to dodge Kibo's blades. He closed his eyes and withdrew all of his power into his center.
Vegeta showed a calm and peaceful expression as the power of his True Super Saiyan God Green started to dim.
Vegeta then suddenly reverted into his base form. His body began emanating an intense heat while a bluish aura erupted around him.
His power skyrocketed as he let out a shout that shook Kibo's Inner World.
Kibo withdrew his weapons and saw that Vegeta had entered the Ultra Instinct Omen Stage. The Saiyan's hair waved from the heat created by the technique, and white steam rose alongside a bluish aura that pushed Kibo back.
"It's kind of like my Martial Intent." Kibo noticed as he examined Vegeta's current state.
Vegeta opened his eyes. His yellow irises shifted to silver before they glowed with incredible power.
Vegeta gave Kibo one last focused stare before he moved.
It happened faster than Kibo could react. While in his Asura Avatar, Vegeta appeared next to it.
To Kibo, it looked like a pea-sized object that was about to send out a punch that could destroy an entire universe.
"Great Ape's Fist!" Vegeta roared out as the fist from the manifestation of his Golden Oozaru came lashing up on Kibo's Asura Avatar.
With a swift uppercut to the Avatar's chin, Vegeta sent Kibo flying into the distance, knocking him a few miles away in an instant.
His God Beast Asura Avatar cracked like glass as his armor while his sword cried out in pain.
Kibo withdrew his God Tier Gear and suddenly made over a hundred hand signs in less than a second, "I'm warning you now, Vegeta. I haven't perfected this art yet, so don't die on me."
Kibo then made a final hand sign in the shape of a circle before shouting, "Condense!"
The Beast God Asura Avatar started to shrink. It went from 50 Meters to 25 in almost an instant. As it got smaller, Kibo wrapped himself in Martial Intent while the Asura Avatar's eyes glowed with murderous rage, compressing itself even further.
When the Asura reached 10 Meters, its energy shot into the sky like a pillar of light that could be seen from distant space.
Nine Meters, Eight Meters, the Asura Avatar continued to condense itself into a small dot of power that felt like it could extinguish the heavens.
Kibo wore his avatar like a piece of armor. All of its power was sealed inside a thin membrane around his skin, "True Asura Beast God Avatar!"
Vegeta looked at Kibo in surprise, almost falling out of his focused state.
Vegeta calmed his mind as he started to walk towards Kibo.
Kibo responded in kind.
As they walked towards one another, they created ripples in the space surrounding their approach. Like magnets being attracted to one another, the two warriors flew into combat without wasting any more time.
"Fists of the Four Sacred Beasts!" Kibo punched out, the images of the four sacred beasts appeared and coiled around Kibo's fist before he punched out.
"Dragon Ape God's Raging Fist!" Vegeta punched out, the image of a scaled ape appeared behind him, his power inflating like crazy as their fists met.
Suddenly, massive explosions of godly force rippled out like world-ending tidal waves.
The two began exchanging blows at incredible speeds. Punch after punch, kick after kick, the two caused havoc on the stability of Kibo's Inner World.
Kibo gritted his teeth as blocked Vegeta's assault and found an opening. With a fierce step inward, all six of Kibo's arms punched Vegeta in the stomach like a Gatling-gun.
Vegeta's body took some damage as he recoiled and quickly punched Kibo in the face.
While Kibo's head leaned back, he went with the flow and did a backflip, landing a kick with the tip of his foot to Vegeta's chin.
The blow sent the Saiyan King reeling through the air like a pinwheel lost in the wind.
While he was spinning around, Vegeta powered up a blast and forced himself to stop in mid-air as he shouted, "Final Crash!"
Spheres of Lightning and Fire formed in each hand combined as he slammed his wrists together and shot off a powerful beam of Plasma-based Origin God Ki.
Kibo powered up a giant ball of energy in the shape of a Rasengan above his head before saying, "God Slaying Art; Heavenly Sword Beam!"
The Giant Sphere of God Essence suddenly transformed into a giant golden sword that threatened to cut all of existence.
Kibo then threw his hand out as the golden sword beam charged towards Vegeta's attack.
The sword slammed into Vegeta's Final Crash, causing a massive explosion to engulf the two warriors.
Kibo's Golden Sword began piercing through the beam and slowly approached Vegeta's outstretched arms.
"Danm it!" Vegeta grunted as he released control over his blast and teleported behind Kibo.
With a powerful Galick Buster, Vegeta blasted Kibo's back with a point-blank, full-force attack.
In response, Kibo raised his Essence to its maximum output and took the full brunt of the blast.
A massive explosion cracked the surrounding space, dealing considerable damage to Kibo as he spat out a mouthful of blood and dropped towards the surface of his Inner-World.
While he fell, Kibo quickly channeled the dynamic core of his Healing Gate. A mysterious green pearl floating over a Green Lotus spurted out an endless mist of energy for Kibo to absorb and heal himself.
As his body repaired, Kibo grew stronger and shouted, "Law of the Sword!"
Suddenly, a gleaming platinum sword formed in front of Kibo. The sword contained all of his Martial Intent and knowledge of Sword Dao.
The sword comprised of universal laws rippled with unimaginable power.
Kibo grabbed the blade's handle as a stream of Sword Intent fused with his with Godly Essence. His aura roared into the sky as a response to his touch, and with all of his strength, Kibo swung the blade at Vegeta's mid-section.
Vegeta didn't shy away, making his own version of a sword beam out of his Origin Ki.
A large Ki-Blade around his flat hand and stretched out as he put more power into it.
Vegeta then swung his arm out with a whip-like motion, putting all of his power into the attack.
A loud explosion echoed out from the source of the impact. It was clear who the winner was when Vegeta flew out of the explosion, revealing the large gash that had appeared across his chest.
Even with his recovery spells on full throttle, it was only healing the wound at a very slow pace.
Vegeta flicked his wrist as his body flew back a few feet before regaining his balance.
The Saiyan's broken energy sword that remained scattered around in the aftermath of the explosion, turned into needle-sized fragments and were flung towards Kibo in a swarm-like formation.
The needles pierced through Kibo's skin and created a loud bang as it collided with his bones.
The ones that passed through his organs shot out the back of his body, carrying with them large amounts of blood.
The two didn't even wait for their bodies to heal the damage. They charged towards each other and started to exchange blows with a fierce display of martial arts.
Vegeta aimed his fists towards Kibo's head and swung out with a haymaker-style punch.
Kibo leaned his upper body forward, dodging under Vegeta's fist while spinning inward and swinging his platinum sword towards Vegeta's gut.
Vegeta's punch stopped short before he leaped forward, raising his feet behind Kibo's body and dodging the attack. Then, with his arm tilted slightly, the Saiyan King clenched in the arm furthest from Kibo and spun horizontally, hurling the point of his elbow down towards the top of the Foreign God's skull.
Kibo dashed to the side with intense speed, dodging the blow before he swung his blade across the left side of Vegeta's shoulder, dragging his blade down towards his back.
The image of Vegeta disappeared, exposing that what Kibo just hit was nothing more than an after image injected with a bit of the Saiyan's Ki.
It was far superior to any illusion the old after-image was capable of. It had an almost solid body, and since it carried Vegeta's Essence on it, it could fool the senses.
Kibo didn't have time to prepare as suddenly a metallic hand pierce through his chest, "Again?! Really?! Come on. Vegeta!" Kibo shouted.
"I feel like we've been here before," Vegeta announced as he removed his fist from Kibo's back.
Kibo let out a smile and said, "Wrong, bit different this time."
Turning into a puff of smoke, Vegeta's eyes widened as he shouted, "Clone!"
Kibo appeared beside Vegeta and suddenly equipped his previously damaged God Tier Equipment.
Vegeta was surprised to see that Kibo's full armor suit and sword had somehow repaired themselves while they were away, and not only that, they seemed a bit stronger than before.
Raising his arms in defense, Vegeta felt Kibo's sword stroke run through his steel-like skin and cleaving through his left arm in the process.
However, before it fell off, Vegeta Auto Full Heal Spell activated, healing the arm while the Saiyan King punched Kibo in the face with it.
Kibo took a hit straight to the center of his glabella. In response to the fierce blow, Kibo's face was flung upward in a violent manner and his body was sent hurling backward.
Blood sprayed out of the cracks formed in Kibo's armor.
However, before Vegeta could celebrate, he also noticed that Kibo's sword, Oblivion. Around the same time he got in the punch, Kibo had thrust the curved sword underneath his collar bone.
He looked down and noticed the tip of the blade was a few inches away from piercing his neck.
He was about to pull Oblivion out when the sword suddenly made a move on its own.
A small chibi-version of Kibo popped out the sword and continued to fly towards Vegeta's vitals.
Vegeta punched the sword, cutting through his own collar bone before sending it flying with a spinning kick.
His blood spilled across the void while small cracks formed on the surface of Oblivion.
As the item-spirit howled in pain, Kibo appeared in front of Vegeta and grabbed his blade out of the air.
Pouring his God Essence into his gear, the sounds of hammers were echoed out while Vegeta focused on the strange Aura surrounding Kibo's body.
Looking closely, the Aura was made of tiny hammers formed by Kibo's intent. The form of Intent was injecting Kibo's God Essence into the items while they smacked against the surface of their bodies.
Within seconds, Kibo's weapon and armor healed completely before he chopped down at Vegeta's face.
Other than the sword in his hand, the 2 copies of Oblivion were being swung around on auto-pilot while the remainder of his Asura form's hands and feet focused on melee.
Kibo turned into a bloody hurricane. As he swung, chopped, slashed, punched, and kicked at Vegeta, he constantly pushed his foe further and further away.
The Saiyan King dodged the attacks by a few inches and slowly made his way through the barrage of attacks like he was taking a stroll through the park.
Once he got in range, Vegeta punched out towards Kibo's throat.
Kibo used one of his free hands and met Vegeta's force with his own. While the two clashed. Kibo swung down with one of his blades and sent a gash across Vegeta's chest.
The second sword ran across his back in a downward stroke while the third flew across his stomach with a piercing jab from the side.
Vegeta groaned in pain as he pushed back Kibo's fist and roared with all his might.
"Big Bang Explosion!" A massive star-sized Ki-Sphere formed in his free hand before it shrank to the size of a pea and detonated, letting off a gargantuan explosion.
The explosion caused a massive rupture to appear in the space of Kibo's Inner World. As the concussive force shook both fighters down to their bones, Kibo and Vegeta coughed up a mouthful of blood, stopping their movements dead in their tracks as stared at each other.
The wounds on Vegeta's chest and back were slowly healing when Kibo said, "Not bad, but the real fight starts now!"
Kibo suddenly shouted out and his power began to grow rapidly.
