Back to the fight, Gohan was able to arrive later on, taking on one of the twins. The alien charged up a blast and fired, but Gohan was faster as he charged up a blast and fired it back, causing them to go flying.
As the alien tried to figure out where Gohan went, he felt immense pain on his side. Gohan went head first against it, causing the alien to yell out in pain. The alien was then sent flying to the ground, their broken scouter falling off their face.
As Gohan cheered to himself, he didn't know that he was being watched by the unknown Saiyan.
"Oh, that must be Kakarot's son... Or is it the other Saiyan that looks like him?" He continued to watch you and Gohan fight.
Gohan then looked around the area, wondering where Icarus had gone. "Icarus! Where are you?! This is no time for games right now"
Continuing to look for him, he bumped into someone, causing him to freeze. When he looked at the person, confusion formed on his face.
"D-dad? Nemui?" The person that looked like you and his dad smirked down at him.
He had light grey skin, wearing dark purple saiyan armor and had a red scouter. He wondered how many people had strong resemblance to Nemui and his father. His hair was similar to you and Goku's, but two more stands of hair spiked up; making them look like devil horns.
"Why hello there. You must be Kakarot's son?" the unknown saiyan question as he spoke in a light gruff tone.
"Wha... Hey, wait a minute! You're not my father or Nemui!" Before he could make a move, he was picked up by the front of his gi. He tried to struggle out of his grasp, but it didn't work.
"Hmmm, I guess I do resemble your father. And Nemui? He's quite interesting. You see, us three were molded into the same structure for destruction"
He scanned for Gohan's power level, seeing it was around ten thousand.
"You are indeed a true saiyan warrior. Why don't you come with me? We could rule the saiyan universe together"
Gohan shook his head, refusing the offer. "Wait till my dad and Nemui get here!"
The saiyan hummed at the thought of you both, especially you. He found you intriguing and needed to know why he couldn't read your power level.
"Let them come, I'm stronger anyway" He watched as Gohan struggled more.
"Listen kid, if you want to become a real warrior, come with me. And maybe I'll get Nemui to join us as well"
"Never!" Gohan formed a fist and tried to strike the saiyan, only for it to be caught with one hand.
"I thought you were smart, obviously you have your fathers' brains. Now I have to teach you a lesson or two, you little runt" He then squeezed his hand over Gohan's fist, making him yell out in pain.
"The earth will be withered away once the tree of might is completely finished. Come with me, we will have so much fun"
The saiyan was getting annoyed by begging the kid to join him, seeing that he had no other options.
Before he could come up with a plan, he felt another presence nearby. "What's this? A power level of 18,000?" As he looked around, he heard a voice from the side of him.
"I think you should let the boy go"
The saiyan turned around to see a namekian with a furious look on his face. "And who might you be?" He questioned as he heard Gohan cheer.
"Yay! Mr. Piccolo"
Before Piccolo could charge at the saiyan, Gohan was thrown at him, but he was able to catch him.
"You alright, kiddo?"
"Yeah, been better..."
As Piccolo checked Gohan for injuries, the saiyan appeared behind him, charging up a small blast. Piccolo felt the burning ki blast that was shot against his back, causing him to yell out in pain.
They both fell to the ground, groaning in pain. Gohan tried to get up, but was pinned to the ground by the foot of the saiyan. Once more, he tried to persuade Gohan into giving up.
All Gohan could do was groan in frustration as he tried to get up. He then felt his tail emerge out of his gi, causing the light gray saiyan to smirk at the appearance.
He then powered up a white ball of ki that hovered over his hand.
"Let's see if you could still turn into an ape at the sight of the full moon" Cocking his hand back, he launched the ki into the sky.
"Moonblast explode!"
As he said those words, a bright light surrounded the area and raised further into the sky, causing you and Goku to turn back and look at what made the light.
'Oh no...' You thought as this was the same technique Vegeta used to turn into a great ape.
The unknown saiyan then picked up Gohan and turned him around to face the bright light. Gohan then started to grit his teeth as his body started to shake with anger.
"That's it. Let's see what you can do"
You both rushed towards the two as you saw Gohan's pupil changing color, his teeth turning sharp as well as he tried to resist the sight. His heartbeat ringed louder in his ear as brown fur surrounded his body.
The now great ape Gohan looked at the sight of the destruction.
Coming closer to Gohan, you were both interrupted with two of the members combining their ki blast and fired at you both.
Before it could come in contact, you caught it in one hand, causing the two members' eyes to widen as you crushed the ki with your hand.
'Whoa, Nemui has gotten stronger... I wonder how long he was training for'
As Goku finished the thought, he watched as you took flight and rushed in front of them.
Charging up a blast, you blew the two members yards away from the area, hearing their yells in pain echo.
You both then rush towards Gohan as you see Goku's face filled in shock. Taking flight, Goku tried to get his son's attention, but it didn't work as you both dodged the attack from Gohan.
Gohan roared with anger as he took flight as well and chased after you two, getting frustrated as you two were faster than him.
"Gohan! It's me!" Goku tried to snap him out of it, but Gohan continued to throw punches at you both.
An evil chuckle was then heard from a distance. Turning around, you see a Saiyan that floated in the air.
What shocked you more was that he looked just like you and Goku.
'Can saiyan genes make you look like another?' you questioned yourself as you stared at the look-alike saiyan.
"Oh, you must be Nemui. It's nice to meet you" he spoke in a light tone.
You huff at him, seeing that he knows your name now. Before you could even speak, you see Piccolo charging towards Gohan, but he was smacked away.
The unknown saiyan threw a ki blast at Piccolo, but you made it in time and smacked it back towards him, but he blocked it just in time.
You then see Gohan and Goku going down a hole, hearing Gohan's roar echo in the air.
Turning around, you see the unknown saiyan smirk at you before charging towards you.
He threw a punch, but you blocked it and countered a punch to his stomach. You both exchanged blows, a smirk formed on his face.
'My, my... He's even stronger than I thought. Maybe I should ditch the little brat and persuade him'
Finishing the thought, you both vanished and appeared a few feet from each other.
Your tired yet determined expression faced the unknown saiyan's confident one.
"Nemui, how would you like to join me?" The question made you raise an eyebrow at him. Why did he want you to join him?
"Why would I join you? How do you even know my name?" you retorted a question back. The saiyan chuckled before speaking.
"I've been watching you all ever since you arrived at the tree. The way you took down my squadron with ease, the way you haven't broken a sweat. I've been thinking if either you or the kid will join me" he spoke.
"I don't have plans on joining you. Especially if you were planning on kidnapping Gohan. And for the matter, I don't even know your name"
The tan skinned saiyan smirk grew wider. "Oh, my apologies. My name is Turles" You hummed at his name before you heard a scream coming from the hole where Goku and Gohan were.
You both rush towards the hole as you see Goku trapped in Gohan's grasp.
"That's it, now crush him like an insect!"
The sounds of Gohan's roars echo in the air, but it stopped when Icarus flew up to him, barely trying to keep itself flying from its small wings.
You watched as Icarus was trying to communicate with Gohan, seeing that he was starting to calm down.
Icarus didn't have enough energy and started to fall, but Gohan caught him and gently placed him on the ground.
Small smiles appear on you and Goku's faces, seeing that he still remembers his pet dragon.
Turles looked down at the small moment in disappointment. "I just can't believe it... The strongest of all saiyan blood has a soft spot for this creature"
He then turned towards Goku. "You didn't raise him well!" He spoke as he watched you both turn to him.
"We're not saiyan's! We're earthlings!" Goku retorted back. 'So in this reality, Goku doesn't now that he's a saiyan'
Without a warning, Turles fired a small ki blast with his finger, causing it to blow Icarus away from Gohan, causing him to roar out in anger. Turles smirked as his small plan was able to work.
Gohan then turned to Turles, charging at him for hurting his friend.
"It's such a shame that I have to get rid of a Saiyan. Oh well..." Turles then charged up a massive ki ball and threw it towards Gohan.
You and Goku rushed as you made a ki blast and fired it at Turles's attack, causing it to be pushed away.
Goku made a disk shaped ki projectile and threw it at Gohan's tail, successfully cutting it off.
Goku hurried to the water and caught his son just in time before he could hit the water. He held him close to his chest, so glad that he was okay.
You and Turles stared at each other, trying to see if he was ready to fight as a smirk formed on his face.
'Now that the kid is worthless to me now, I wonder if I can see Nemui at his full power. Kakarot is no match for me' he thought to himself as he started to speak.
"It's too late for you three, once the fruit is matured, your entire planet will be finished. C'mon and join me Kakarot and Nemui, we'll be the strongest saiyans in the universe!"
He only received angered and annoyed stares from you two, causing his smirk to fall, seeing that convincing you both isn't going to work.
•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•
After a few moments of staring down each other, you three took flight to a higher area. Turles then stared at you, not really caring about Goku anymore.
Before he could utter a word, one of his squadrons floated down in front of him.
The member spoke with confidence, saying that he could defeat you two. Two more members floated next to him, and the rest were here, they were all covered in bruises.
Looking down, you see Krillin groaning in pain as he struggled to get up from the ground, his body covered in bruises. Same with Tien.
Turles watches as his squadron charges at you both, causing you and Goku to dodge their sloppy movement. It was two against five and they were losing against you two.
He watched as you countered their moves and threw them at the others. Goku blocked all their punches as he grabbed their legs and slammed them to the ground, causing them to spit out blood.
Before they could get up, you fired a ki blast at them, hearing their screams in pain as they felt the burning ki.
Two of them tried to corner you, but you grabbed their heads and slammed them against each other, hearing a crack as blood slowly went down their noses.
Turles felt something in his body, the way you took down his squadron with no effort. The only people he had on his side. He was frustrated but he felt something else as he watched you two fight.
He admired your strength, but he felt something else. Loneliness. A dwelling feeling he had inside of him. The feeling stuck with him ever since his planet was destroyed.
His squadron was the only people that kept him company, and now, he's seeing two saiyans fight them with ease. He knew that his squadron was weak, but they're the only people he had.
He was then interrupted when Piccolo charged towards him, but he dodged and pushed him to the ground. Piccolo then fired his special beam cannon, his strongest move, but it didn't even phase him.
"Hmmm, you scratched up my fingernails" He then envelops Piccolo in a blast, causing him to fly yards away from the fight.
"Kaio-ken!"
Goku's body was enveloped in red aura as he watched Turles's squadrons scouters break into pieces. As they were distracted from the power, you slammed your knee into their stomachs while Goku threw a striked their jaws.
The squadron groaned in pain as they fell flat against the ground.
Turles turned around as he saw his squadron's defeated bodies surrounding you and Goku.
"You know it's not too late for you both to join. Kakarot, you'll be a disgrace to your people if you don't surrender"
"Surrender? That's not going to happen" After he spoke, a smirk formed on Turles's face as he stared at you.
"You know what? Maybe I'll just take Nemui instead. He's stronger and faster than you. He'll be way better than you, Kakarot"
'What is with people being this obsessed with me? First Vegeta and now Turles... I need a nap after this,' you thought as you saw a dark expression formed on Goku's face.
"I won't let you do that, he's staying here" spoke Goku as Turles let out an evil chuckle.
"You're going to have to hurry then. Your planet is slowly dying as we speak. Once the tree of might is finished, your whole entire planet will be nothing but a dried-up graveyard" he announced.
"All the nutrients from the earth will going to fruit that I will consume. Once I take a bite of the fruit, my power level will be like nothing you've ever seen. I will become unstoppable"
After he spoke, you three went into a defensive stance, you both were waiting for Turles to make a move.
