The Tournament of Power 18/27

Jayr POV - Dragon Ball Universe, Null Realm - Age 780

While Kale, transformed into her Legendary Super Saiyan form, keeps powering herself up, Goku takes his fighting stance, chuckles, and mutters, "Heh, heh. Here we go... The Legendary Super Saiyan. It feels like training with Goza all over again."

On the other hand, Caulifla can't help but exclaim in an excited tone while looking at her protège transformation, "Awesome, Kale! You're so freaking jacked!"

Kale then let out yet another fierce roar as her power exploded with such force that the crater she just created grew even larger, and Goku was forced to jump back and deflect shards of the fighting stage sent flying in his direction.

The level of Kale's energy is enough to make Jiren flinch and focus on her, as well as distract Vegeta and Top from their battle while making Top comments, "Huh? That massive berserk energy has returned," which is followed by Vegeta who also recognize her energy and adds, "It's that Saiyan woman, Kale, from the 6th Universe."

Hearing that, Top admits in an impressed tone, "Your species is formidable indeed. There is no way to argue that," which makes Vegeta remark, "And there's something else you should know. Of all the mighty Saiyan warriors, there's one who reigns supreme. And that would be me, big boy!"

However, Top calmly states, "A claim you've yet to prove," before Vegeta rushes in and punches Top away.

Meanwhile, Kale waves her hand, generating a strong wind that blows away the cloud of dust that had risen around her before she takes a few steps toward Goku and growls while the Zenos exclaim excitedly.

"Look, she's back!"

"The Super Saiyan with the super big muscles!"

Caulifla, amazed at Kale's power, excitedly comments, "Her energy is huge! I love this Legendary Super Saiyan level! Heh!" before she goes up to her and tells her, "Kale! I knew you could figure it out eventually! You've tamed it! You've reached this form without losing control, am I right?"

After saying that, Caulifla extends her hand and Kale growls and grabs it after a few moments, but forcefully grips it, enough to partially destroy the fighting stage under them.

Caulifla, then, holding her wrist with her other hand and her head lowered, slowly pushes back and asks Kale, "Don't you know who I am?" before she adds, "Maybe that's just the trade-off. Maybe this form takes so much raw power that you have to lose yourself in it to get here."

At this point, Caulifla raises her head to look at her protège in the face and with a big smile, she says, "And if so, then thank you. You're awesome! Thanks for paying that price!"

After saying that, Caulifla turns her head to look at Goku and comments, "With this much strength, we can knock out Son Goku and keep our universe intact!"

Kale looks stunned as Caulifla keeps holding her hand and asks Goku, "Can you believe how amazing she is? On my own, I may not have been able to pull this off. But with the two of us fighting together, we're the toughest force in all the universes!"

After saying that, Caulifla tells the still somewhat berserk Kale, who is clearly being affected by her words, "You're the only one who can fight by my side, and that's just how it should be. You're my precious sworn sister, Kale. And my friend... The best friend I could ask for. Let's do this, Kale!"

Hearing this, Kale mutters with tears in her eyes, "Ane-san..." before she says, gasping, "Right. Let's go!"

Suddenly, Kale gains full control of her power as her irises appear again in her previously white eyes, then a massive, spiraling pillar of Ki envelopes her body before the pillar is blown away, showing that she attained the fully controlled form of her Legendary Super Saiyan transformation.

Then Kale looks at her mentor and with a smile she says, "Sorry to keep you waiting this long, Ane-san," which makes a happy Caulifla comment, "Ha! So you did have it in you. Welcome back, Kale."

At this point, watching this scene, Goku smiles wryly and mutters, "It truly feels like facing Goza all over again. I still remember the first time he truly gained control of his Legendary Super Saiyan form. At that time, my whole body just started shaking as my Saiyan instincts responded to his overwhelming presence."

Then Goku's smile grows bigger, becoming an excited grin as he comments, "You're also exceptional, Kale. I'd better be careful with you, or this could get ugly pretty quickly."

Facing Goku while still holding hands, Caulifla asks Kale, "Kale, so you know what we need to do, right?" Making Kale reply, "Of course I do! You'll charge in and I'll follow your lead, Ane-san!"

However, Caulifla quickly corrects her, much to her shock, "Like hell you will! We do this as equals. With the two of us fighting together..."

Kale realizes what her mentor wants to say and concludes with a smile on her face, "Heh! We're the toughest force in the universes!" which makes Caulifla exclaims, "You're goddamn right!"

Excited, Kale exclaims, "Yeah, I hear you loud and clear! From now on, we battle as a team!" which makes Caulifla let go of Kale's hand and yell, "Let's amp this up!"

At this point, Caulifla roars and powers herself up as her body is enveloped in the usual golden aura, with Kale quickly following after her and doing the same, making Goku also power himself up and prepare for the battle.

The two sides start their battle, with Goku rushing up to them and Kale throwing Caulifla, who quickly finds herself in front of Goku and kicks him, forcing him to block, at the same time, Kale follows up right after her and lands a vicious uppercut taking advantage of the opening created by Caulifla.

Caulifla then quickly moves behind Goku, landing yet another blow before she and Kale start to move around Goku at high speed while Caulifla draws his attention by taunting him and feinting an attack, "What are you waitin' for, old man? Crank it up!"

But just as Goku focuses on Caulifla, Kale once again lands a blow that sends him crashing against yet another nearby boulder while Caulifla compliments her, "Nice, Kale! Keep up the pressure! Ha!"

Kale shout, "You got it!" before she uses her Gigantic Impact by charging a green light energy from around her body in the form of a seismic wave, and then, she gathers it into her palm to form a bright-green energy sphere which she then launches toward her target in the form of a volley of Ki Blasts.

Goku dodges by jumping out of the way, but this leaves him in mid-air, exposed to Caulifla, who launches herself in his direction in an attempt to ram into him, but Goku uses the Solar Flare to blindside her and cause her attack to miss, and her to crash into the boulder behind him.

Kale is enraged by that, and without any hesitation, she makes use of her brute power to tackle Goku as soon as he lands on the ground and makes him crash through many rubbles and boulders standing in their way.

The two are quickly approaching Frost's location, where he is launching random blasts everywhere, laughing crazily while trying to hit Dr. Paparoni from the 3rd Universe, who is simply trying to escape and avoid a direct confrontation with him.

Unfortunately for him, Dr. Paparoni finds himself directly on Goku and Kale's path, and he is easily knocked aside while Goku is still struggling against Kale's power.

Kale tries to knock Goku off, but she is knocked back by a Ki Blast shot from Goku's foot. But she is then saved by Caulifla, who quickly warns her to be careful and not fall into Goku's pace.

Frost, still watching, is impressed with Caulifla and Kale, and says, "As expected of Saiyans... With those two, we should still have a chance to survive," before he quickly leaves the area with the clear intent of avoiding getting involved in a battle with such powerful fighters.

However, shortly after that, Frost finds himself face-to-face with Cell, and soon the two start to fight without much fanfare.

At first, Frost, who clearly has no intention on wasting his energy fighting any opponents as he has avoided all direct confrontations since the start of the Tournament of Power and only made use of sneak attacks and hit and run tactics, tried everything to get away from Cell, from creating diversion, to use his Ki to create smoke bombs, and even trying to lead him toward another competitor, but Cell, already wary of his tactics, easily thwart any of his plans forcing Frost in a direct battle.

In the end, Cell easily overpowers Frost and knocks him off the fighting stage with a decisive Kamehameha, eliminating him from the Tournament of Power, much to Champa's disappointment, because now only 4 warriors of the 6th Universe remain.

The situation for the Namekians, Pilina and Saonel, doesn't look all that good either as Goza is still goin easy on them while waiting for them to fully assimilate and get used to the power of all the Namekians they fused with, but once that happens, Goza is surely going to take them out as he still is without any doubt one of the strongest warriors taking part in the Tournament of Power.

While the Grand Minister announces Frost's elimination and the Zenos mark it down on their GodPads, Goku resumes his match with Caulifla and Kale, excited to fight them with everything he has: "Okay, this time let's go all-out."

Hearing that, Caulifla asks in a mocking tone, "Yeah? Are you sure you're ready for that?" before she adds, "You must be pretty confident you can win to fight us both."

Goku smirks and admits, while once again powering himself up, "Actually, no, I'm not confident. That's not it. It's just that I want to pull out all the stops against you, plain and simple."

In response, Caulifla and Kale again hold their hand and also power themselves up, ready to resume the battle, while saying.

"Yeah, well said!"

"Let's do it! Ane-san! The toughest force in all the universes is gonna get even tougher!"

"You know it!"

With a roar, the three fighters once again clash, this time with such force that the ground under them gives way, creating a massive crater before Goku is forced back and fires a volley of Ki Blasts, but Caulifla and Kale dodge them.

Caulifla then creates a smokescreen, causing Goku to focus and sense the attacking Kale's Ki; however, it is a diversion as Kale grabs Goku and keeps him in place while Caulifla pummels him.

Goku flips, causing Kale to crash on the ground and let go of him, and then attempts to use Instant Transmission, but Caulifla uses her senses to attack Goku as he reappears.

Goku acknowledges Kale and Caulifla as the perfect tag team, then transforms into Super Saiyan God.

Goku attacks the Saiyan duo with his God Shot, which consists of Goku pointing his index and middle fingers in a finger gun pose and firing a short barrage of golden energy bullets at his opponent, before following up with a second, faster barrage of energy.

However, the Saiyan duo dodges and closes the distance before resuming their assault, but despite the two's combination attacks, Goku manages to hold his own.

Then Caulfila and Kale try blasting Goku from both sides; however, the more experienced Saiyan pushes back their attacks with blasts of his own, which break through the Saiyan duo's Energy Waves and continue to advance toward their targets.

While Kale decides to endure the Ki Blast head-on and is struggling against it, Caulifla tries to run from hers, but she soon notices that it's tracking her.

Kale deflects her blast but watches as Caulifla takes a direct hit and quickly rushes to catch her before she crashes on the ground, and once in her arms, she quickly worries over the state of her mentor, "Ane-san! Are you okay? Can you move? Ane-san!"

Meanwhile, Goku calmly looks at his opponents and compliments the two on their performance while Kale gently lays her seemingly unconscious mentor on the floor, "You two have fought well. You've got talent I've only rarely seen. But you both still have a lot to learn about fighting and martial arts. If we have a chance after this thing ends, we should face off again."

In response, Kale yells, "You think you've already won?" before Caulifla slowly gets up with her legs shanking while grunting in pain, making Kale focus back on her and ask in a worried tone, "What are you doing, Ane-san!?"

Caulifla then weakly states, "I won't quit. I can fight," but then her legs give away and she falls with her knees on the floor, making Kale exclaim, "Hey, take it easy, Ane-san!"

At this point, Caulifla exclaims, "Damn it. I'm a disgrace!" before she asks her protège, "Hey, Kale. We've been saying that together we're the toughest force in the universes, haven't we?" which makes Kale reply with confidence, "Yeah, that's right."

Hearing that, Caulifla then tells her, "Then it's time to believe that, all the way. Get out those things we got before this battle started."

Surprised by what her mentor just said, Kale asks, "What? Are you sure?" And in response to her question, Caulifla simply smirks while Goku, who decided to end this battle, fires a Kamehameha, that shatters the fighting stage around them, making a sizable piece with them fall into the bottomless abyss of the Null Realm, making Beerus exclaim, "Yes! He's knocking both of those Saiyans out simultaneously!"

However, as the piece of the fighting stage is falling, the two are enveloped by a strange glow which quickly turns into a bright shining green light, making an excited Champa exclaim, "Here it comes! Yeah!"

The next moment, the falling piece of the fighting stage shatters once more as a single female figure quickly makes her way back onto the fighting stage, landing behind a surprised Goku, showing only her back.

Goku immediately notices the Potara Earring on her ear and exclaims, "No! It couldn't be! Who are you!?"

The new figure turns around fully revealing her figure as she cheekily introduces herself, "This is Kale. And also Caulifla! We're Kelfa!"

Kefla is a young, slender woman of Kale's average height, and her hairstyle is a mixture of both of those owned by the female Saiyans, being spiky like Caulifla's with bangs framing both sides of her face, while the majority of her hair is held up in a ponytail like Kale's.

Her facial features and eye shape are more reminiscent of Caulifla's, but her complexion is a mix between both of their skin complexions.

She wears Kale's golden armbands however, they are now the same shape as Caulifla's wristbands, boots though the red part of them is replaced with the black of Caulifla's, and a purple belly shirt with form-fitting purple pants, being a mixture of both of their pants, from Caulifla's color scheme.

And of course, on her ears, she has two green Potaras, revealing her identity as a Potara Fusion.

At the same time, an ecstatic Champa laughs and exclaims, "Haha! My idea worked! It really worked!" But soon, the Supreme Kai, Fuwa, yawns and says, "Well... Fuwaaa.... I am the one who let them borrow them in the first place, Champa-sama."

Champa casually dismisses that by saying, "Oh, never mind the details, Fuwa!" before he cheers, "Take it to him!"

Shortly after he said that, the day Champa gave the Potara Earrings to Kale and Caulifla comes to Cabba's mind, and he immediately realizes that their fusion is the result of using them, making him exclaim, "So that's what they do!?"

Meanwhile, Vados explains, "The entity born through the merging of two individuals who wear the Potara Earrings has a personality all her own. And her power is not simply the sum of her separate parts, but is multiplied dozens of times over." which makes Champa exclaim, "That's right! See? They are powerful! That's why I told you to wait! Because you always save your biggest weapon for the end!"

At this point, Cabba cheers them on, "Please, go and make the most of this chance! Win it for us, Caulifla-san and Kale-san! No wait, that's Kefla!"

Kelfa takes a very deep breath before she powers up, exclaiming, "Hahaha! This feeling's incredible! There's so much energy surging up inside me that it feels like it's limitless!"

At the same time, a shocked Goku comments on her power, saying, "Her energy's so huge, I can't even tell how high it goes!"

Shortly after that, Kefla looks at her hands and says, "There's only one way to see what this power can do," before she looks at Goku a few meters away from her and exclaims, "With a hard-knuckled fight!"

Kefla decides to attack Goku, but she's so fast that Goku cannot follow her movements, and even she is actually having problems controlling herself as she overshoots and finds herself right behind Goku, making her exclaim, "Whoops!"

Goku then turns around and tries to attack Kefla, who easily dodges before she moves behind him and lands a single blow that sends him flying.

Goku then fixes his position in mid-air and shoots a quick Ki Blast at Kefla, but she easily deflects it, exclaiming, "Yeah, as if!" before she catches up to him and lands a vicious blow on his face that send him crashing on the ground while saying, "Now you'll see the real depth of my power!"

After sending Goku crashing, Kefla lands on the ground and asks her opponent, who is slowly getting up while groaning in pain, "How's that?"

Goku looks at Kefla and mutters, "Fusing with Potaras... I didn't see that coming."

Suddenly, Kefla powers herself up once again, and as the white flaming aura envelopes her body, she comments, "This power flowing through me... It's freakin' awesome!"

As her Ki wildly spikes once more, an enthusiastic Champa exclaims, "All right, you've got it! Now harness that power and put Goku to bed!"

At the same time, Kefla's powerful, wild Ki generates some shockwaves that make the surrounding boulders and rubble crumble while she yells, "There's no one in all the universes who can stop me now!"

Shortly after that, Kefla once again attacks Goku, but this time, he is able to dodge by jumping out of the way, not only because he was able to react, but also because the current Kefla still isn't able to properly control herself.

It seems that Kefla also realizes this as she chuckles and comments, "Heh, heh. Guess I need to step off the throttle. I've got so much power that it's easy to overshoot ya. But I won't miss again."

Kefla then rushes in and lands a heavy blow on Goku's gut, which is then followed by a double-handed axe that Goku blocks and comments that Kefla is far stronger than Caulifla and Kale individually.

Then Kefla launches a barrage of kick and finally pass through Goku's defenses landing yet another clean hit making him fall on the ground before she quickly rushes up to him, grabs him by his legs, and swings him around and then launches Goku who crashes through yet another boulder formed by the pieces of the ruined fighting stage.

Furious about what is happening, Beerus exclaims, "Damn it! Hey, Champa! You know you're breaking the rules, don't you?" which makes his brother calmly comment, "Aw. I think you're just jealous. Why don't you use the Potaras yourself?"

In response, Beerus crosses his arms and growls, "So we can be disqualified, too, when they realize they're illegal enhancements? Yeah, nice try."

At the same time, the Zenos, who are enjoying the Tournament of Power, excitedly comment.

"I like it! Merging is so fun to watch!"

"Yes, and fun to watch is good!"

"Moreover, Stingmon and XV-mon did it, too!"

"That's right! They were so cool!"

""Fusion! Fusion! Fusion! Fusion...""

The Grand Minister then understands and immediately announces, "The Zenos-sama have spoken. The use of Potara Earrings and any other technique or object with a similar function is allowed."

Hearing that, Beerus happily snatches the Potara off of Shin's ears, while some of the other Gods proclaim that they don't need to use Potara.

Meanwhile, I take advantage of this brief moment to take a look at the other ongoing battles.

There is Vegeta, who is continuing his battle with Top, and he's getting pushed back.

The reason for that is that he's too distracted by Goku and Kefla's battle, and Top, who also takes notice of that, soon takes advatage of this distaction to move behind him and catch him with his Justice Rear Naked Choke before saying, "If you're so enraptured by Son Goku's battle, then I'll let you watch it in peace from the spectator bench," which makes Vegeta grunt in response, "Screw you!"

Hearing that, Top simply grunts and increases the pressure of his hold even more, making Vegeta scream in pain.

Another ongoing battle is that between Goza and the Namekians.

Goza continues to fight Saonel and Pilina, and soon Pilina extends his arm and catches Goza by the leg while Saonel fires a Ki Blast at him; however, Goza counters the attack with his Masenko, also obliterating Pilina's arm to free himself.

Of course, Pilina quickly regenerates his arm and once again joins the battle, but it is clear that the two still haven't fully digested the power of the Namekians they fused with, and because of that, Goza is still able to easily fend both of them off without even transforming.

Another interesting ongoing battle is the one between Holy Angemon and Paildramon against Android 17 and Android 18.

The two Androids are able to keep up with the pair of Perfect Level Digimon thanks to both their literally infinite energy and their flawless teamwork, despite that, they are still being slowly pushed back by the overwhelming power of the Digimon and their own impressive teamwork.

After all, just like Android 17 and Android 18 are twins, my Digimon Partners are also triplets who are born from the same Digitama and even if they are much younger and more inexperienced compared to the Androids, they have the advantage of being natural born fighters with astonishing fighting instincts in addition to being personally trained by me, something that more than makes up for the Androids' superiority regarding battle experience.

On top of that, Holy Angemon and Paildramon are a nearly perfect team.

Paildramon is an overwhelming, destructive force; not only is his sheer power astonishing, but even his movement speed and defensive capabilities make him quite a difficult opponent to put down.

Then there is Holy Angemon, who, while he falls slightly behind in sheer destructiveness compared to Paildramon, has more than makes up for it with his overwhelming versatility.

He can use his Excalibur to cut anything standing in his way, the Shield on his other arm to protect himself and his allies, he can use his Heaven's Gate in both offense and defense, to consigns the opponent to oblivion and block their attacks, or blasts them with light, on top of that, there is also his Holy Powers which he can use in many supportive techniques like heal injuries to self and allies, or cure cursed status ailments, poison, and so on.

Needless to say, both Android 17 and Android 18 find themselves in quite the pinch when facing those two together, and I'm not the only one seeing that as I hear Shin suggesting that Android 17 and Android 18 use the Potara, and Beerus agrees due to them being compatible cyborg twins.

Shin jokingly calls them "Android 35", much to Krillin's embarrassment, but then Whis points out that fusion may pose a disadvantage, since they pose the risk of eliminating two warriors at once.

Just as they are about to reach a conclusion, Holy Angemon uses Excalibur to slice through Android 17's Barrier and injuries Android 18's leg which distracts both of them, then Paildramon follows up and fires his Desperado Blaster hitting them and knocking them off the fighting stage, eliminating the two from the Tournament of Power.
