The Saiyan Saga 9

"Hello Goku." I sighed, reigning in the desire to punch his face in.

"Hello…you?" he greeted me back confusedly as he pushed himself up, "Sorry, have we met before?"

"You could say that," I shrugged, then smirked, "Think back to your training with Mr. Popo, I used to beat you up for fun."

Goku blinked, confused before his eyes widened, "Wait, that doll thing?!" he gaped.

"One and the same," I nodded, "I was brought to life by Kami with the dragon balls to save everyone and be the big damn hero if you weren't up to the task."

"Huh, my clone, I think I saw a movie like that once with Bulma," he tapped his cheek, before shrugging, "Nice to meet you again, I guess? I mean, you didn't talk at all back then."

"I wasn't alive then." I shrugged.

"Guess so!" Goku laughed, "So what brings you here….me?"

"Call me Kakarot, I remember actually being a saiyan after all," I replied, "As for why I'm here, well, to sum it up, I'm here to increase your strength for you with these." I swiped my hand through the air, opening a portal to my world and letting twenty more fruit of might fall out in a pile.

Goku eyed the fruit for a moment before waving his hand through the air at me, "That's awful nice of you err Kakarot, but I'll pass," he refused my kind offer, "I, kinda already went through that with King Yemma's fruit, and while that was cool, I'd rather not to do it again, y'know? Where's the challenge and excitement of getting that power myself instead of just having it given to me? It's boring!"

You know, I somewhat expected that.

"It's not up for debate, you're eating these fruit and getting stronger, even if I have to beat your ass like my red headed step child and force feed you them through a tube." I sneered.

At the very least, I now know how he's stronger than his main counterpart. He doubled his power with Yemma's fruit and had way more stamina after that, and so he reached King Kai much earlier.

"Zat so? And you think you can do that?" Goku's eyes narrowed and he slid into the turtle stance, preparing for a fight, "From what I can sense, you're not even half as strong as me."

"Because I'm hiding my energy obviously," I snorted, "You aren't even worth one percent of my power, clown."

"You think so? Now you've got me curious!" his voice alight with eagerness, Goku shot towards me.

"Kaioken x 2!" he shouted, powering up straight away, a crimson red aura exploding out of his body. He must actually be taking my words seriously from the get go.

His power quickly doubled in scope, rising to; 42,500

Impressive really for him, considering he hasn't been effected by my shenanigans at all. He would be well capable of crushing Vegeta and Nappa without issue.

With a shout, he closed the distance between us and punched me square in the face with all his might. I barely even felt it, and the force couldn't even turn my face.

His eyes widened, "X3!" he shouted, his power increasing exponentially once more and he began to lay a barrage of punches into my face and chest.

63,750.

He was really much more used to the Kaioken in this timeline than the main one, huh? Guess some extra time with King Kai went a long way.

Honestly though, it felt like a child poking me gently.

"Bored now." I deadpanned and let my power rise to its maximum in my base state, no longer hiding it.

Goku outright stopped attacking me in shock at the power he felt coming from me.

And then I raised my finger up and I flicked him on the chest.

King Kai's planet shook like a meteor had just collided with it, a thunderous boom echoing across the area.

It only lasted for but a moment, but when it was over, Goku lay before me in a massive crater, his neck bent to the side and broken, his chest caved in and all of his limbs bent in odd directions.

Y'know something? That felt good.

Cathartic even.

Though, I should probably do something about this before he actually dies again and gets erased out of existence.

Sigh.

"The heck is going on out here!?" the door to King Kai's house burst open and the squat little blue god came rushing out, only to stop and gape as he saw me.

"Who the heck are you!?" King Kai gaped, "And what's with that ridiculous power!?"

I ignored him and walked over to Goku. I didn't have any sensu beans on me, but thankfully, King Cold was ever so generous to 'donate' his skill with healing to me.

"Goku!?" King Kai cried, rushing over to the downed original, "What happened to you kid!?" he fretted worriedly over him.

Rolling my eyes, I extended my hand and let ki seep out from out in a wave, washing over Goku's form and healing his injuries.

It wasn't a sensu bean, but it got the job done and before our eyes, Goku began to heal, though King Kai could have probably done without the snapping sounds as his limbs were yanked back into place by my ki.

"Guy, who are you? Why do you look like Goku and why the heck are you so strong? why did you come up here and just beat the crap out of him like this and are now healing him?" King Kai rapid fire rattled off questions at me that I honestly couldn't be bothered answering right now.

I was more focused on Goku's power as he healed and zenkai'd before my eyes and senses. It exploded upwards massively and completely dwarfed his previous power more than twenty times over.

My scouter was very handy for getting an exact reading as well;

1,168,750.

"…This is, that saiyan ability!? But, I've never seen it cause this much growth before!" King Kai spluttered.

Whatever, I have to keep good on my promise now, don't I?

I lifted my hand and grasped all thirty fruit from the tree of might I'd dropped on the ground and they floated up into the air due to my telekinesis.

And then I smoothed them all together into a massive pulpy liquid.

I twitched my finger, and the unconscious Goku's mouth was forced open, and King Kai yelped as I force fed the pulpy fruit of power down his throat through a straw of telekinetic power.

…That counted right?

His power spiked and rose again as he digested the pulped fruit and I decided, yes indeed it counted.

I could have magically conjured a straw of course, but I'm too lazy for that nonsense.

1,768,750.

Honestly, he should be thanking me for this kind of growth, he's just grown near a hundred times stronger in less than five minutes. What good is pride in the face of that, the idiot?

"I don't even know what's going on anymore," King Kai sighed, collapsing on his backside as he witnessed his student grow even stronger, "And you haven't answered a single question kid."

"I'm a busy man King Kai," I shrugged, "I'll just let him explain it to you." I added on.

With that said, I walked over and crouched down over the unconscious original. I found myself less angry at him now that I'd got to crush him like a bug. I'd love to do it again mind you.

Well, whatever.

I pressed two fingers to his head and slipped into his mind and pursued through his memories, just as Kami had taught him, and I'd learned from my wish in the other timeline.

It was quite easy to find where Princess Snake's palace was, and while I was at it, I dumped the basic gist of what I was up to into his mind, the same as I told the others back at Kami's Lookout.

"Later King Kai." I bid the North Kai goodbye and jumped into the air and flew away before he could say anything else.
