The mighty trio elevated to meet the height of their opponents.

Kasai: “I do not wish to bring harm upon those not involved, however, in the name of war, any ally of this criminal is an enemy to us! My comrades, our divine blessing from Amaterazu shall be our key to victory. Embrace this power, it will protect you from all harm, this is the gift of our savior!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAaW5rQjtHbf
Nozomu: “I didn't think we'd need this so soon.c
146Please respect copyright.PENANAn8BFuWmlAv
Goku: “What kind of form is that? What other tricks could they have up their sleeve?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAL5W97VFVmX
Kasai: I've noticed the confusion in your faces, I'll spare all of you the suspense. You're all contributors to the rise of our sun god, Amaterazu. His visions have guided my allies and I to this very moment for over a year now. What you see now is the result of our training inside the very sun itself. An undying flame, that is the gift of Amaterazu that shall lead us to his resurrection. The same gift I'll use to exact my revenge!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANApPdu4UJkCL
Tien: “I can't sense their ki, just how powerful as these guys?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAFIPrDm27kN
Piccolo: “It's just a guess but it seems like they may possess divine ki. We have to be careful, they're more than capable of killing us if we make even the slightest mistake.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA24iwCvmUes
Kasai: “My comrades, I feel that it is already quite apparent but, we will have to split up and take a load each. Pouwar, you'll take on the one with the armor, it may not be apparent yet, but the visions are telling me he's one to watch out for, perhaps just as much as the one we faced earlier. Nozomu, you take the rest of the group, I'll handle our main target. As long as you keep the other one busy, Pouwar, Nozomu should be able to take out the weaker ones, leaving them with no support.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAOtws6YJIKa
Pouwar: “Understood, let's get to tearing them apart already!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAO3VXqRnqIG
Kasai: “On my mark, my friends.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAkqvDKBR8eJ
The trio took a stance, preparing to charge into battle.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAbeWb6soW80
Vegeta: “Here they come!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAF88S5V7RfQ
The trio took the lead, dashing to their predetermined enemies and commencing their assault. Pouwar rushed Vegeta, who instantly took on his super saiyan blue evolved form. Pouwar overwhelmed Vegeta with a mighty barrage of blows. Vegeta defended against them all, barely managing to keep up. Each strike left a scar from the heat.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAkKIQo9h5BY
"It's dealing serious damage to me without even landing a clean blow!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANARxPiBbrxBo
Vegeta thought as he continued his struggle. Nozomu made his move on the other warriors, commencing everything with a strike towards piccolo. Piccolo managed to block the blow just in the nick of time. The force of the punch alone sent him flying back a few feet. His hand suddenly caught fire, bursting into flames like ones he had never seen before. They quickly burned through his arm, even ashes were not left behind. Piccolo immediately tore off what was left of his arm before it reached his body further. He panted as his face viciously dripped with sweat.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAOeYEw1s1ZG
Piccolo: “That fire isn't normal, it burns you down to an atomic level, we can't risk getting touched by that!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANADo8h3Nq4ns
The proud Namekian grew back his arm and took his distance from the royal elite.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA6Xo3JLTCZ4
Krillin: “So fighting this guy hand to hand isn't an option then huh. None of us have the power to even seriously injure this guy!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANADXftF51NAe
Yamcha: “Well, we can't defeat him, but maybe, we can hold him off just enough to give Goku and Vegeta time to deal with their guys.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA5tmY6OeiEF
Krillin: “Is that really all we've been reduced to?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAq0oSkX0X6O
Piccolo: “He's right Krillin, I don't know who or what these guys are, but they're no joke. Simply keeping one away from them is already more than they could ask for. If we want this to work, we have to keep our distance and strike from afar!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAsGun39OgOU
Nozomu gave no time for preparation as he engaged with his second attack.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAGHaeaPB5Tj
Nozomu: “Divine dragon bullet!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAyY7J3lcn3m
Nozomu shot a ray of fire, shaped like a bolt of lightning from his finger tips.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAeMEazLYZfV
Tien: “Dodon ray!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAZwsEjVJRhD
Tien's precise beam intercepted the attack, saving Piccolo from certain doom.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAVWOR702nW7
Tien: “It's clear this guy's done playing around, our attack has to begin now!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAL8jrS4baBG
"Right!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANAj0SVC16HZ2
The group said in union. They all took separate positions, each isolated as far as possible from Nozomu.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAR53nKUuGrV
Nozomu: “So they plan to split? They don't have the speed to keep up with me, even if they attack at different angles, I could strike them all down at once no sweat-”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAb2uLoHdrQO
Nozomu suddenly found himself locked in a hold. Tien had a firm grasp of all of Nozomu's essential joints. Two other of his clones zapped Nozomu with the dodon ray. They focused their beam on him, applying more pressure by the second. Nozomu released flames from his body which immediately disintegrated everything nearby, including the clones who were shooting their attack at him. He would have no time to counter strike as the rest of the warriors had followed up with their own attacks. Nozomu evaded a barrage of destructo disc attacks which was followed by a ki sphere that continuously chased Nozomu regardless of what turn he took.
146Please respect copyright.PENANApwfOIGXRvS
Nozomu: “What is this attack? No matter where I move, it keeps following!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAWSnTDzbFAw
Yamcha: “Haha! Looks like someone can't handle my spirit ball!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAld3IIWYYrl
Krillin: “You know, you could be a little more creative with those names.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAmPhcoXxom1
Yamcha: “Oh yeah? Mister ‘destructo disc?’”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA7msoLgUNIr
Krillin: “Fine, I got the message.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAwNwtSo52G1
Nozomu quit his escape and confronted the attack, melting it away with ease. He prepared to return his own attack but was shocked to find himself battling a powerful illusion of countless after image clones of all the fighters.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAc8cDyGi5ka
"Damn it! Which are the real ones? These guys are just playing games with me!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANAAHeGT43kpH
He thought as he attempted to decipher real from illusion.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA9ArtlixYUq
Nozomu: “They're wasting my time. I get it now, they're buying time for the other two, these bunch are no threats at all, I shall take them out all at once!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAvGVNg6kOh1
Nozomu spun his arms in a circle, gradually picking up the speed until they resembled miniature tornadoes.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA8GBSb5RoH8
Nozomu: “Divine fire hurricane!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANATNwFTJmXlr
A massive tornado of fire was birthed from Nozomu's spinning arms. The after images were all destroyed in an instant, leaving no trace of an illusion.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA7SxQWeWnth
Yamcha: “Damn it! I think he's done entertaining our little gimmick!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAnwCUNK0ZtF
Nozomu cleared the scenery, leaving his foes completely wide open.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAuLYN1DkumZ
Nozomu: “I've got you all now!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANARMXOzsukyp
He darted towards them, approaching at rapid speeds.
146Please respect copyright.PENANABlkqKgcLkf
Krillin: “Tien! Now! Use the moonlight!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAr9vP4UDcYX
Krillin and Tien immediately lined up together, side by side.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAdKdomW4xti
"Solar Flare!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANA4eegQ0PgLL
They shouted together as they created an intense bright light with the help of the moon; the light staggered Nozomu.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAlj4XT7v4tC
Piccolo: “This is it! This is the opening we needed! I'm charged up and ready, all of you fire with me!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAQYKQ2AmAeU
Piccolo appeared once more in the battle field, revealing to have been preparing a powerful charged attack.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAESxIkm7GQZ
Piccolo: “Special beam cannon!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAL5Gv2oruTP
"Kamehameha!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANASDeBQKEeDQ
Yamcha and Krillin shouted together.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAGDhbZq4LRt
Tien: “Tri-Beam haaaaa!!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAz4Ku9FYgnC
Their attacks landed together in succession, knocking Nozomu straight to the ground.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA4KN0BjrwC8
Yamcha: “We did it!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANALsg99jozDq
Piccolo: “Don't get too excited yet, we didn't even dent him. We've simply delayed him from making a move on us, if we continue like this, Goku and Vegeta should be able to finish him for us eventually. At least I'd hope so..”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAi4a89TzAW2
Pouwar rose up from a pile of rubble which disintegrated almost immediately. She chuckled as she looked up at Vegeta.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAOBUtSIjxEy
Vegeta: “He's still standing after all that. I figured it wouldn't be so easy.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAWf6itGhAaK
The flames around Pouwar's forearms morphed and merged onto her hands. Her left hand became engulfed in flames shaped like a mallet, the right hand formed into a shield of fire. She charged towards Vegeta once more, swinging her mighty mallet in his direction. Vegeta dodged the attack but was caught by a sudden explosion from the mallet.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA9ukgIDbrpq
Vegeta: “What the hell!?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAhUKpmEroBQ
Pouwar: “Hehe, surprised ya huh? In this state, our bodies can release hydrogen into the air with each attack. All it takes is a little push from the force I create with every attack. In return I can create a compressed explosion that's just as powerful as my regular blows. Simply put it, you can't escape me, puny man!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAZBTXNToKaT
Vegeta: “It's really starting to annoy me how much I've been shown up by others recently.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAS10bCQawpZ
Pouwar: “Perhaps it's time to accept your inferiority, small fry. For our race, the males are more suited for fighting, but occasionally, a female with twice the battle capacity of a male is born. Being born as one of those exceptions, I was chosen to fight alongside our future king and protect him with my life. I was born special! It is an insult a lowlife like you has pushed me this far!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANATTMuTZ1pxm
Vegeta: “Wait… You're a woman?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAnkKcqLS7lm
Pouwar: “Shut up!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANATQaELhInem
Pouwar continued her attack, swinging her mallet multiple times, hitting Vegeta with each explosion. She lifted her mallet, preparing to swing it once more, but her attempt was interrupted by Vegeta who shot a ki blast straight into the mallet. The collision created an explosion that damaged Pouwar.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAGaUd3FP8AS
Vegeta: “If all it takes is a little push to set off the explosion, then I can use it against you too. Listen, I don't care who or what you are, but you are fighting no small fry! Before you stands the prince of the saiyans! Speaking down on me is speaking down on my kind, that I shall not allow!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAqPDhrD5ZWv
Vegeta blitzed his way to Pouwar, kicking her gut with tons of force. The blow burned him as well but he continued his assault. He put his hands together and smashed them into her skull, Vegeta wasted no time in following up with yet another attack.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA2kFu61YLFK
Vegeta: “Big bang attack!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAqu7h6cMmJb
He dropped the mighty ki sphere on Pouwar who reacted just in time to protect herself with her shield. The attack was disintegrated instantly.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAa7sJrc6lvy
Pouwar: “Divine scorch chains!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA3gCG9cstLb
Flames shaped like chains emerged from Pouwar's mallet, binding Vegeta's arms, stretching them apart. The chains burned through Vegeta's gloves. Each second felt as though they ate away at his very skin. Vegeta yelled in agony, tensing up his body in an attempt to fight through the pain. The chains grew longer, taking a hold of both of his entire arms. Pouwar yanked Vegeta to her, striking him with her mallet. The explosion sent him away once again. Pouwar repeated the process, smacking Vegeta around like a paddle ball. Vegeta fought through the pain and rammed into Pouwar's face with a devastating headbutt. He took advantage of an opening and landed another attack.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAyS0n241gF1
Vegeta: “Galick gun, fire!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA7JyMy655aW
The blast sent Pouwar crashing down to a nearby hill. Pouwar regained her composure, standing in shock.
146Please respect copyright.PENANACFXKxr5E53
Pouwar: “How hasn't he disintegrated? These flames burn to an atomic level! Could a being that strong really exist?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAPWVT6BiLAp
She placed her hand on her rib, noticing a bruise.
146Please respect copyright.PENANA3zx349r5B5
Pouwar: “His attack didn't disintegrate completely either, perhaps it was too big and powerful to burn out before it reached me. This guy, if I keep messing up, he's going to kill me!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAtdpDD8jevk
146Please respect copyright.PENANAFrwv4fO65E
Goku traded blows with Kasai, they went back and forth, blocking, receiving, evading and delivering attacks.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAJwhf3U3Sco
Goku: “Your skills are amazing, there's impeccable precision in your attacks. You weren't kidding when you claimed to be prepared for war.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAHCqANh8uWh
Kasai: “Your blows are tense yet filled with peace, how dare you fight with a calm mind after what you did to my father!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAKU1lr0UhVQ
Goku: “I haven't done anything, you've got the wrong guy!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA1zcWzj1nQN
Kasai engaged, rushing Goku down with a flurry of attacks. Kasai took a step back, halting his assault and raised his hand in the air.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAzdOEmyJCTX
Kasai: “Divine dragon slam!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAhCccWrPLml
A long wave of fire, reaching 20 feet in length, extended from Kasai's arm. He swung his arm down, slamming the mighty wave onto Goku which sent the warrior crashing into the ground.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAC5WYtIZhZA
Kasai: “Royal dragon's breath!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAoZK42P4MNl
Three fireballs shot out of Kasai's mouth, they fell at the same rate before merging together into a larger fireball. The fireball landed on Goku, bursting apart upon colliding. Goku struggled to stand.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAaExqF00Q2k
"Whis, I'm really trying, but I just can't pull through with it. How do I find peace with my lifestyle? I'm…. I'm not sure what kind of life I want to live."
146Please respect copyright.PENANASguRYqkjCJ
Goku desperately searched for an answer to his troubles. He reverted back to his base state, taking a moment to breathe and reflect.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAZQZM5X5NTP
"I don't have time to figure out my problems right now. In the tournament of power, I achieved ultra instinct by accident. My body acted out of instinct, I need to push myself to that brink again. It's a gamble, but it's my only hope right now!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANAP5iTSP36p2
Goku abandoned his thoughts and set his focus back onto his powerful foe. He remained in his base state.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAX432CqxEfr
Goku: “Come at me! Kasai? Right? Hit me with your best!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA7JdZMdKJzy
Kasai: “You beg for death that much? Now that is a wish I shall grant!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAOuNgoPqxfB
Kasai darted at Goku, starting his assault with a kick to his jaw. The kick knocked him away. Kasai went on with his attack, hovering right above Goku as he struggled to gain his balance, Kasai delivered an elbow shot to his rib. Goku shot straight to the ground once more, but his fall was interrupted by an intense burning sensation around his left wrist and right ankle. He soon realized he was caught by Kasai's ropes of fire. Their flames felt as though they burned 100 times greater than before. Goku yelled and squirmed in pain. Kasai yanked the injured saiyan towards himself. He lit his own leg on fire and struck his opponent with a devastating kick to the gut. He proceeded to swing Goku around before launching him straight into a hill. Goku collided with the hill, smashing it into pieces as he crashed.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAZxWALkZV79
"Just a little more! I have to trick my body into fending for itself!"
146Please respect copyright.PENANASbO26KZqqx
Goku thought as he tried his best to bear the pain of his injuries. Vegeta was shocked to see his friend suddenly taking a great beating. His distraction would cost him as Pouwar delivered a solid blow to his chest with her mallet.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAw0YzLg9LNx
Pouwar: “Keep ya eyes on the prize, Mr. Prince!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAo78WoUfN8C
Pouwar teased Vegeta, she hit her mallet against her shield, taunting him to come back for more. Vegeta didn't bother with her disrespectful actions and rushed to aid his longtime rival in battle.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAWgG9eA3TaG
Pouwar: “Hey! This is between us! Coward!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAhMW6cjxZVE
Vegeta caught Kasai with a clean hook to his chin, the blow knocked Kasai away, giving Vegeta enough time to attend to his fellow saiyan.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAGjCLrjNkV1
Vegeta: “Kakarot! What are you doing? Why are you making this harder for yourself?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANA7DsmEB5MGS
Goku: “I-It's the only way….Vegeta. I've fought them already, this is nothing like what I faced earlier, even if I give it everything, all it's going to take is for one of theirs or one of our's to fall first for the tide to shift. If you, I or the others go down, it's over, we can't fight multiple of them at once. Not like this at least.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAP7IKK9uBGV
Vegeta: “What do you mean?”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAxlx8xdaUuy
Goku: “If I can trick my body into doing what I did in the tournament of power, I can perhaps tap into ultra instinct again.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAXkdECY9ARU
Vegeta: “You know well that you're far from being able to control that. You're risking your life.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAmZOlYSdMby
Goku: “It's the same risk I'm taking if we keep things the way they are… Look out!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAc9rHZkVJSF
Pouwar interrupted the pair's little talk as she barged in, smacking Vegeta away with her mallet.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAOCfKiXDWcg
Pouwar: “You wanted to split up and now you wanna fight in pairs? Make up your mind!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAbokIUaUp5z
Vegeta didn't take long to gain his balance and proceeded with a counter attack against Pouwar. He shot a blast at Pouwar's mallet to nullify it and caught her with a nasty kick to her chin. His neck was suddenly entangled by a flaming rope. He gasped as the rope tightened his grasp and burned him simultaneously. Kasai had Vegeta in his grasp.
146Please respect copyright.PENANARpWf3DL4sU
Kasai: “If you desire to make this easier for us, so be it.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAWfPFyt2VtI
Pouwar joined the battle field once again. She pounded Vegeta as the unfortunate prince was being gagged. Goku rushed to help, jumping back into his super saiyan blue form, but Pouwar was prepared for his interference and caught him with a brutal blow to his head with her mallet. The attack instantly knocked Goku out.
146Please respect copyright.PENANANybW95g7N0
Pouwar: “Hey, Kasai! Why don't ya tie up the other one too? Keep him still for me c'mon!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAHQKbUeh9w0
Kasai: “I trust you'll finish them off, Pouwar.”
146Please respect copyright.PENANApmPWgbpybh
Kasai got a grip of Goku's throat as well. Pouwar elevated higher into the air, above the two helpless warriors who found themselves caught in Kasai's grasp. She raised her mallet which shifted into the shape of a burning orb.
146Please respect copyright.PENANATZQPYtmx2D
Pouwar: “Divine Solar eclipse!”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAtc309ZSRYC
Pouwar launched the sphere towards Goku and Vegeta, the medium sized sphere enlarged into a massive size right before it made contact with the duo. Without warning, the attack was stopped in its tracks and destroyed on the spot.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAvLqEs1zpnp
Pouwar: “What the-”
146Please respect copyright.PENANAixYvEh4JeI
Pouwar was suddenly knocked away with what seemed to be multiple blows delivered at once. Kasai came face to face with the culprit of the interruption.
146Please respect copyright.PENANAZy0nBot7O3
Goku: “I don't know how long I can keep this up for.. I have to finish this, now!”
