Last time, on Dragon Ball Tuffle Quest Z! The 24th World Martial Arts Tournament begins, with you encountering a surprisingly friendly trio of Towa and Gero's latest creations, then facing off in the prelims Yamcha as Videl and Pantea rocket through the ranks of the Junior Division!

You and your friends all take your seats near the Ox King, Master Roshi, and the kids. Gohan and Peppa sit in your lap, eagerly switching attention from the ring, the monitor displaying a close-up of the scene, and you and Goku. Izumi, in contrast, merely rests peacefully in her mother's lap. Yamcha and Bulma smile and give a little cheer as their daughter enters, wearing her usual martial arts outfit, modeled after her father's, with a curious and somewhat oversized red cape.
In contrast, Videl walks in with her usual black and white outfit, plain-looking. Her dad cheers wildly, shouting "That's my girl! You're doing great, kiddo!" as she enters. She... seems just a bit embarrassed. Even moreso when her mother joins in with the cheering.
You spot the Announcer guy walking in behind the girls. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for your patience! The final round of the first ever World Martial Arts Tournament Junior Division will begin shortly, but first, how about giving these adorable little powerhouses one last round of applause!" Everyone starts cheering, and...
>A. Ah screw it, cheer for them both!
>B. Come on Videl, rooting for ya!
>C. You can do it birthday girl! Show 'er who's boss, Pantea!
>D. You know, maybe they've got enough pressure as-is, hold back on cheering
>E. Something else?
>>43871822
>A. Ah screw it, cheer for them both!
May the best girl win.
Hows it going Kato? How was your Thanksgiving?
>>43871822
>E. "WINNER GETS ICE CREAM WITH SPRINKLES!"
>>43871822
>A. Ah screw it, cheer for them both!
>>43871849
Good, though our attempt at turkey ended up becoming turkey jerky. Biscuits turned out far better.
>>43871822
>A. Ah screw it, cheer for them both!
>>43871822
>>E. Something else?
Magic materialize a megaphone and cheer for both!
So taking bets now, who do you think among our next generation of fighters will learn Raioken and Raioten first?
I think Videl will get Kaioken among the younglings.
>>43872171
Mira
>>43872171
I think you are right about Videl.
Raio-ken...going to say Gohan. He may be younger but dem Half-Saiyan genes you know?
No idea about Raio-ten. Not Peppa or Gohan cause they'll take the Super Saiyan route.
>>43872222
I figured the two would use Raio-Ten until they master SSJ for themselves.
Then they combine them!
>>43871822
Ah screw it, you can't pick favorites here. You start wildly cheering for both girls, tempted to craft up a megaphone to try and cheer loud enough for them to hear you, though your brother dissuades you from doing such a thing. They don't need auntie Maple embarrassing them.
Yet.
The Announcer guy lets out a soft laugh, then leans down to talk with the girls. "Now, you two are some of the youngest competitors we've ever had in the Tournament-"
"Yep! We're both five years old, almost six! Gonna be our birthday soon!" Pantea tells him excitedly.
"Aww, well isn't that sweet, folks?" the Announcer guy asks, adjusting his sunglasses. "Now girls, what inspired you two to start up on martial arts?"
"Our dads." Videl tells him in a bit more of a calmed voice. "Yamcha Briefs and Mark 'Hercule' Satan. And their friends too." She gives a little wave to your group.
He smiles and nods, taking a look in your direction as well. "Well girls, hope you both are ready to celebrate your birthdays as champions, because you two have certainly earned it! Now... fighters ready?"
The two girls take their places, bowing, then readying their stances. Peppa and Gohan start giggling and cheering for them, tails giving happy little sways. Yamcha and Mark exchange a little nod. "Glad to see her come so far?" your scar-face'd friend asks.
"As much as you are to see your kid there." Mark tells him with a laugh.
"BEGIN!"
The two girls dash at each other, locking elbows. The crowds start cheering wildly.
>A. Keep cheering them both on!
>B. Show her what you've got, Videl!
>C. Come on Pantea, give it your all!
>D. Talk with someone
>E. Something else?
>>43872326
>D. Talk with someone
>Acer
>"So how ya doin'?"
>>43872326
>D. Talk with someone
"Gohan, Peppa would you like to enter the tournament when you get old enough?"
>>43872326
>A. Keep cheering them both on!
>>43872239
I doubt they'll be able to combine them. The Raio-ten is a mimicry of the energy of SSJ. It doesn't make sense to me that you'd be able to combine SSJ and "fake SSJ".
>>43872326
>>A. Keep cheering them both on!
Rolled 15, 5, 4, 18, 11 = 53 (5d20)
Let's see...
Rolled 13, 1, 7, 4, 10 = 35 (5d20)
>>43872563
Interesting, interesting...
>>43872577
Yeouch.
Well then, writing...
>>43872326
You give them both another wild cheer. "Do your best, girls! We're proud of you!"
"Pwoud of youh!" Peppa cheers out with you, causing her dad to laugh a little. Gohan merely smiles and watches intently.
You pat them both on the head gently. "You two seem to be enjoying yourselves quite a bit. Say... you two think you'd want to enter the Tournament some time yourselves, when you're old enough?"
Goku gives you a pleased look, your daughter answering immediately with a shout of "YES!" Gohan on the other hand takes a minute, actually considering it, but gives a smile and a nod as well.
"Hah, getting them started early, huh sis?" Acer asks, eyes still focused on the fight. You catch a glimpse of Pantea dashing back, barely avoiding and blocking Videl's attacks.
You smirk at your brother. "How about you and Chi-chi, think Izumi will be joining her cousins?"
"Only if she wants to, and when she's old enough." Chi-chi responds, her daughter still resting in her arms. She gives a gentle pat on the girl's head.
"Fair enough, fair enough." Ah well. You look back at the fight, Pantea now on the offensive, striking Videl with the Wolf Fang Fist. Heh, Yamcha's especially proud of that one. To your surprise, Videl manages to back up just enough to cross her arms and... build up some Ki? It creates a barrier around the girl, stopping Pantea's onslaught long enough for Videl to land a kick to her gut, following through with another series of three kicks... that seem to kind of explode when they contact her.
"ATTA GIRL, VIDEL!" Mark shouts. "Haha, the good ol' Dynamite Kick!"
(cont.)
>>43873222
You nudge your brother in the shoulder. "You sure you're not picking sides, brobro? I'm trying not to, but..."
Acer laughs. "Well... maybe a little."
As Pantea is thrown back, almost out of the ring, she gives a quick shout of "CLOTHES BEAM!" and throws a scarf around Videl's leg, grabbing hold of it. Mark's girl reacts by trying to fly away, but that just gets Pantea the momentum she needs to stop herself and pull herself back into the ring. The purple-haired girl starts to build up some Ki in her fist... and a small flaming aura surrounds it. She propels herself downwards, letting out a roar of "Burning... CRUSHER!"
Videl is a moment too late to block it, Pantea's palm slamming into her gut, Yamcha's daughter bolting to the ground with her, trying to reach the edge. Right as the two get there, Pantea seems to release a strong surge of energy, slamming Videl hard into the ground. She stands there for a moment, taking in what she just did, while also making sure Videl's okay. She falls back, panting, then starting to laugh.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is it, Pantea Briefs is our first ever Junior World Martial Arts Champion!"
You see Mark and Miguel hand their heads down a bit, but both start clapping and cheering for their daughter anyway. Bulma is positively ecstatic, and Yamcha... you see tears in his eyes.
>A. You okay there, Amuro?
>B. Congratulate the victor, you earned it, kiddo!
>C. Talk with someone
>D. Something else?
>>43873249
>D. Boooooooooooo
>>43873249
>A. You okay there, Amuro?
Dat fatherly pride.
>B. Congratulate the victor, you earned it, kiddo!
>>43873249
>Ask where she came up with that attack.
>Congratulate the two
>Offer to even further their training if they'd like.
>>43873249
>A. You okay there, Amuro?
>B. Congratulate the victor, you earned it, kiddo!
>>43873249
>A. You okay there, Amuro?
>B. Congratulate the victor, you earned it, kiddo!
>>43873249
>>D. Something else?
why are we cheering for little girls beating each other up. Stop this fight and make everyone involved feel ashamed.
>>43873456
...Weren't we once a little girl who fought other girls?
Hell we're still a 'little' woman.
>>43873456
Mew2's get out
>>43873476
Yeah but we were like....8 I think.
That's 60% older
>>43873456
Spopovich, pls go and stay go.
>>43873249
You turn to Yamcha. "You okay there, Amuro?"
He wipes away the tears in his eyes, smiling warmly. "Y-yeah... just... proud of her."
"I bet." Acer adds with a laugh. "She really mastered that skill, didn't she?"
"Yeah, yeah she did." the scar-faced man says with a nod. He stands and shouts, "ATTA GIRL, PANTEA! YOU DID GREAT!"
You nudge your brother. "Was that that... thing I saw her practicing?"
"Yep, helped her and Yamcha figure it out. And I see she used the Clothes Beam herself." Acer responds with a satisfied smirk.
"Heh, guess she did. Smart kid." you say with a nod in Bulma's direction. You then give the victor a loud shout of congratulations, while also giving Videl a little cheer for how far she came.
Pantea actually helps the other girl up, the two smiling as they see people cheering all over for them. The Announcer guy approaches them. "And there you have it, folks! Aren't they both great sports? We'll have a short break, and then return with the first round of the 24th World Martial Arts Tournament!"
Your group quickly meets up with the two girls, both getting a quick heal, and talk with them on how they did. Videl takes her loss fairly well, at least, telling Pantea that next time she won't be so lucky. You then notice the other competitors enter, Piccolo and Raditz following behind Giran, with Aza, Tyz, and Sugil behind them. You see the woman grumbling angrily with her comrades.
"It's so dumb though. I mean, what does he have against the little blue guy?" Sugil questions.
"Orders are orders. It's after the Tournament, at least, but I don't like it any more than you do." Tyz responds.
Aza laughs. "Ah, relax, you two, or we won't be able to focus properly."
>A. "Little blue guy?"
>B. Eh, probably nothing, just focus on the Tournament
>C. Something else?
>>43874063
>A. "Little blue guy?"
>>43874063
>A. "Pilaf?"
>>43874063
>Give Pilaf a ring and say that Gero is out for his blue-blood.
>>43874063
>>C. Something else?
attack these fuckers for planning to assassinate Pilaf. Nah bitches, you don't have my sympathy goku, super saiyan these fucks
What little man do we also know who is important and blue?
>>43874063
>>A. "Little blue guy?"
>>43874132
>>43874163
We haven't actually seen King Kai yet, have we?
>>43874163
>>43874132
..who has been subject to multiple assasination attempts.
It's Pilaf you berks.
>>43874063
>A. "Little blue guy?"
>>43874122
Nah m8 think logically here. We try to attack them here, that starts up too much shit. Let's wait until we can properly stop them.
Away from the crowded area filled with civilians.
>>43874063
>A. "Little blue guy?"
>>43874132
Hmmm...
>>43874224
Obvious answer is obvious but there are other little blue people around.
Maybe their going to murder Papa Smurf for Gargamel?
>>43874063
"'Little blue guy?'" you question, raising an eyebrow.
The three of them look at you, and then shrug. Tyz is the first to respond. "You can probably guess who that is. Isn't that right, Tien, Chiaotzu?"
The two of them stare at the three, then take a fighting stance. "You're not going to do that."
Sugil laughs. "Cool your jets, triclops. I mean, you don't want to do this here, do you?" She gives a... less friendly smile. Tien relaxes his stance, but glares and clenches his fists, Chiaotzu looking away. "Yeah, thought not."
"Save it for the Tournament, at least. And after, if you want." Tyz tells him. "One of us has to do the job."
Your whole group looks over them uneasily, Giran looking back and forth with a rather confused expression. He then scoots away, deciding not to get involved in whatever feud you all have. The tension is broken when all non-combatants are asked to leave, and the placement lots are drawn. The Announcer guy smiles. "Heh, well glad to see our Champion Couple back again. Lot of folks have been talking about you two since you got here. On that note, Son Goku, you've got the first pick."
Your husband heads over, drawing his lot. He gets... the 10 spot. Nice. Then Acer, with lucky number 7, and Aza, at 13. The brackets slowly fill, Launch getting put in slot 2, and soon... "Maple Ma- er, Son-Mahogany, next!"
You go for...
>A. The top
>B. The middle
>C. The bottom
>>43874654
Let's ask Peppa and Gohan to choose one for us.
Make it super random!
>>43874654
>C. The bottom
One day, Maple will be tall enough to reach into the box without using the tippy-toes technique.
>>43874654
>A. The Top
>>43874654
>Use Telekinesis to jumble it all up and take the one that shoots out of the box.
>>43874654
>>A. The top
Our Final Transformation into Super God Tuffle Blue ZZ 7 is just gonna be temporarily adding 6 inches to our height.
>>43874698
You're at maximum height. The only way to get taller is by the Dragon Balls.
>>43874769
>the Dragon Balls
Well, what are we waiting for. We won't get Omega Shenron if we don't get on that!
>>43874769
What if we reversed the neutron flow of the Micro Band and make it a Macro Band?
>>43874769
Our height is maximum, you say?
>>43874807
Ask Bulma.
>>43874769
Let's just clothes beam some platform shoes.
>>43874654
>C. The bottom
>Hold our hand over the box, and then have the bottom ball fly up into it.
SSJ Goku grabbing our feet, SSJ Launch grabbing our head. Puuuuuuuuullllllllllll!!!!!!!!
>>43874867
Gah. Just got a horrifying gore mental image from that instead of the cute cartoon stretch thing you were going for.
What if we got Krillin to teach us his kappa ways to extend our height at the cost of other areas?
>>43874912
>kappa ways
Kappa lives with Konpei.
>>43874654
>C. The bottom
>>43874912
>implying Krillin is a Kappa
>but he's still short
>all that height is going somewhere else
>>43874654
>>C. The bottom
Because >>43874698
>>43875021
18 does have her reasons.
>>43874654
>C. Bottom
Mundanely please
>>43874654
>C. Bottom]
Let's not show off yet.
>>43875069
But what if we used the force?
So an alien genocidal maniac is coming to kill us in a couple months. In about two years another alien genocidal maniac is coming to kill us. And an asshole demon/human combo has made three monsters that are going to kill the emperor and we're just, y'know, haha! Lets have fun at the tournament.
>>43874654
>B. The middle
>>43875139
Well the last one is the one I am most worried about. The other two, well, hey preparing for this tournament made us pretty damn prepared for the first invasion.
>>43875139
What's it like to be a gigantic tool?
>>43875139
We have like five world ending threats on their way, what else are we going to do? Train and train and be stressed out when they actually do show up?
>>43875178
Pretty fun!
>>43875139
We've stopped genocidal maniacs before. You've been paying attention, yes?
>>43875139
You know, Maple and co. do train for the tournament. And if they weren't participating in the tournament, what would they be doing? Training against each other.
This is a way for them to unwind and relax for a bit while still honing their skills at the same time.
>>43875184
>>43875178
>>43875163
I mean, personally, I'd assassinate the robots with the entire team right now before the tournament starts. Who cares if we don't get the money, we have Goku and every other strong human in the world with us right now. They'll listen to us if we tell them its time to just fucking annihilate these godless machines.
>>43875243
Is Raditz a maniac?
>>43875255
I was thinking more King Piccolo.
Raditz is more of a slightly off his meds mook.
>>43875255
On the dance floor!
Ice T just became a father to baby Shanelle. I just want you guys to know that.
>>43875270
Probably skateboarding, too, since he's been training with Piccolo for a while.
>>43875269
Say, could we get Kami/Piccolo to do some sort of Vulcan chop that'll get rid of his PTO programming?
>>43875253
>Start a fight in the middle of a crowded festival area
Sure thing Clark.
>>43875253
We already had every strong human in the world before, with the Z-Fighters or whatever they're called in-quest. Everyone else is at most a few Raditzes strong.
>>43875285
Who?
Funny how with us, Raditz nearly quadrupled his strength.
Imagine if Frieza made his soldiers do mandatory training.
>>43875289
I think he's a bit too old for that. Even if he was 'programmed' like baby Kakarot he probably fulfilled whatever original stuff he had in his noggin' and is just going by his own personality.
>>43875253
>The guy who wrote and directed the first 5 minutes of Spectre
>>43875303
>The tension is broken when all non-combatants are asked to leave
>middle of a crowded festival area
Choose one.
>>43875344
Our field of range in a battle would encompass the entire festival area.
Without the tournament rules and the stage that limits any stray misgivings, we'd probably take this entire fight across the city.
Then we'd end up the ending of Man of Steel.
>>43875332
Are they groovin' on that helicopter?
>>43875344
It's still gonna be crowded, the contestants just have some space to punch eachother.
Besides, just murdering them would be out of character.
>>43875364
>Our field of range in a battle would encompass the entire festival area.
I have faith with the whole crew working together and Chappa helping to keep the crowds back we could pull this off. It would be more interesting too!
>>43875364
Nah, let's just tunnel through the Earth while dragging our opponents to some wasteland and fight there.
>>43875365
>just murdering them would be out of character.
They literally said they're going to kill one of our friends. Sure, our shitty blue friend we never see. But still.
>>43875395
>Let's have everyone beat up the robots
>Let's have everyone keep the crowds back while we beat up the robots
Please decide already.Or not because that's dumb.
>>43875421
Yea, and we had a problem killing the little penis worm that said he'd kill everyone we knew and loved, and will have a problem with the idea of killing Veggie and Radish.
>>43875424
So I'm thinking Goku takes one, we take one, Tien takes one. while the rest of the crew moves all the crowds back to their homes far away from the action, we keep them busy. THEN, the crew comes back and helps us murder them. We have literally the sixteen strongest people on the planet right here. I'm sure we can manage to split into two groups of eight or something.
>>43875398
>>43875395
Androids ain't going to just go along with your little plans. They'll take the fight anywhere they want.
They can use any human as a hostage and probably shatter any barrier Chappa makes with ease.
Our children are here, they are vulnerable.
It is a bad idea. Please stop.
or I will give more example
>>43875446
No we didn't.
>>43875453
Tell Bulma to take the kids and wait like, ten minutes before we do it.
Y'know what'd make a neato tourney ring in the future?
>>43875465
Maple only felt bad because there was no other way but to terminate the little guy.
I wonder what Enma thought of him...
>>43875480
How do they hold their breath for so long?
>>43875488Gil.
>>43875480
We already talked about why this was a bad idea
>>43875488
Maple felt bad that our friends were in danger. LIke right now!
>>43875448
That's dumb. They'd overpower us one on one and we're about the second strongest here. We could beat up just about everyone here who isn't a close friend, except maybe Chappa.
>>43875465
Yea we did, we hugged Goku for a bit from what I remember before androids came for the squished penis worm.
>>43875477
Ten minutes with Bulma would get them maybe halfway across the city. The androids have probably also rigged her house with a bomb.
>>43875503
Plus Undine would win that match in...1 second.
>>43875514
>The androids have probably also rigged her house with a bomb.
Nigga what?
>>43875503
C'mon, anon, don't you give up on it!
>>43875529
I'd rather become pop stars.
>>43875514
Goku is hitting at 1,000,000 right now.
Maple 400,000.
If we cant take these Androids one on one, then WE NEED TO DO THIS AS A TEAM BATTLE! WE HAVE EARTH'S BEST TEAM RIGHT NOW! WE CAN DO IT IF WE BELIEVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
k, i'm done.
>>43875527
I think they're Androids, I've forgotten. All I know is that the big company who's family friends with the biggest threat to my plans would get me to set something up. Might not be a bomb, but there's probably something set up.
>>43875545
I believe you should chill.
>>43875545
Time and a place for everything.
If we had fought Magil, Garlic and Piccolo that way then we would have probably made a cluster fuck instead of the victories we got.
>>43874654
>B. THe middle.
>>43875544
>>43873456
Think of it like people at their kid's first karate match. The kids are really showing their mastery of skills in a friendly match than trying to do any form of damage to the other. If they were trying to actually hurt each other, then you step in.
>>43875567
We did fight Garlic that way though, because he forced our hand on it.
>>43875579
You know me so well.
>>43875488
>How do they hold their breath for so long?
Might be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_breathing
Maybe Bulma could make a some sort of super liquid that Ki blasts can move in but fizzle when they breach the surface.
>>43875139
It also let us become aware of the newest plot against Pilaf, and gives us an excellent chance to take measure of those killbots you mentioned where they won't necessarily try for murder. The Saiyans are currently weaker than most of the main cast without us powering up, and in training we have gotten to 400,000+ with Kaio Ken and Raio Ten being used together. The only reason Vegeta will be a threat currently is because Towa is going to be messing about a bit. Otherwise I would say Vegeta vs Yamcha because right now that is the fairest fight to the Saiyans here.
Sorry about that, had lunch.
>>43874654
You walk over and give a little jump, getting the one on the veeeery bottom, standing on the tip of your toes. And it's... huh! The number 1 spot! You show off the little ball with the number on it, Launch giving a surprised look. It quickly turns to one of calm excitement. "Well well, looks like we're gonna have that match after all, huh kid?"
You walk over to her, tossing the ball to one of the attendants. "Looks like. Hope you've gotten even stronger."
She ruffles your hair. "Same to you, kid."
The slots all fill in, and once everyone has their place, the Announcer guy goes over the brackets:
"The first match will be former champ Maple Vs. returning competitor Launch!"
"The second match will feature the lovely new competitor Sugil against familiar face, Krillin!"
"The third match is new fighter Tyz fighting Crane School Master, Tien!"
"The fourth match is returning fighter Acer against Majunior!"
"The fifth match is newcomer Raditz against our Champion, Son Goku!"
"The sixth match is the lovely Lazuli Vs. newcomer Hercule!"
"The seventh match is the mysterious Aza fighting... oh hey, Giran!"
"And the final match is a girl who made it to the semi-finals last time, Chuu Lee, facing long-time competitor Chi-chi!"
Everyone seem to congregate towards their respective opponents, Sugil... giving Krillin a flirtatious wink. Lazuli gives the woman a bit of an annoyed look. You head into the ring with Launch, the crowds cheering. You spot Roshi with your kids, the Ox King with a less sleepy Izumi in his lap, all cheering for you. Your friend turns to you and smiles. "Hey, Maple, want to go all-out from the start, skip the warm-up?"
>A. Hah, sure!
>B. Nah, let's get a proper warm-up in
>C. Something else?
>>43875755
>B. Nah, let's get a proper warm-up in
Why not?
>>43875755
>A. Hah, sure!
>>43875755
>B. Nah, let's get a proper warm-up in
"Mind if I start things off with Blue, then we'll fight when you wanna get serious."
>>43875755
>>B. Nah, let's get a proper warm-up in
>>43875755
>>A. Hah, sure!
>>43875755
>A. Hah, sure! I tend to blow off all my steam after doing well anyway, so I'd best give it my all as soon as possible.
>>43875755
>A. Ha, why not?
Mostly just want to see what she's got.
Oh, and I forget, but is Sugil blonde? Because if so, maybe Krillmaster attracts them like Goku attracts redheads.
>>43875892
What does that even mean?
>>43875755
>"And the final match is a girl who made it to the semi-finals last time, Chuu Lee, facing long-time competitor Chi-chi!"
Our star (and only) pupil VS Our sister from another mister
>>43875916
Probably a jab at how after we get all 20's for a while we then begin getting all 1's.
>>43875916
It means DCs of 19 after we roll 20s.
>>43875904

You crack your knuckles, taking your stance. "Hah, sure! Let's do this."
"Looks like these ladies are ready to go! Fighters ready? BEGIN!"
You let your Ki surge and use the Raio-Ten, sparks flying around you. Launch powers up as well, that golden aura around her. The two of you bolt at each other, exchanging powerful blows with each other. Neither of you manage to do significant damage, but it's clear that Launch is able to outpace you ever so slightly.
At the same time, you've got the better reflexes. You manage to block one of Launch's knee strikes and land a roundhouse to her arm, knocking her off-balance. She quickly readies herself, though you unleash a Machinegun Punch on her before she can react. Launch bolts away when she has the chance. "H-heh, not bad." You then start to sense some Ki build up in her fists. "But let's see how you handle this, kid!"

>E. Something else?

Can we switch to Raio-ken when we're just dodging?
>>43876670
No reason to do that. Raio-ken and Raio-ten have the same drain. Its a direct upgrade.
>>43876680
That doesn't make sense.
>>43876695
There's no reason to switch around when they're both the same cost and it'd waste time.
Plus it would probably leave DCs the same as Kato planned.
>>43876695
Raio-Ten is the speed of Raioken with the power of Kaioken. All working with what we've studied from the SSJ transformation.
We're faster with Raio-Ten then if we just used Raioken.
>>43876718
No it's not, we can combine Raioten and Kaioken together.
>>43876680
Raio-ken takes up a set amount of Stamina but doesn't have a continual drain. Raio-Ten drains one dot of Stamina per round, but keeps the speed boost in addition to everything else.
>>43876680
If anything I would imagine the Raio Ten to be faster still, as power and speed are tied together and it still makes us go faster still, I think.
>>43876744
>All working with what we've studied from the SSJ transformation.
I know anon, it's a combination of both plus a little more.
Three things come together to make one thing.
Though there's probably other factors too.

You prep your Spirit Bits, readying yourself to counter her. Launch tries to feint you with an afterimage, dashing behind you and letting out a shout of "GATLING BURST!"
And just in time, you've already dodged out of most of quick-fired energy blasts and are using the Spirit Bits to defend against the few that will hit you, using your greater reflexes and foresight to make it look effortless. As Launch finishes her attacks, you bombard her with the Lightning-enhanced Spirit Bits, a few lucky shots hitting true and stunning her. You dash at her and land an enhanced strike to her jaw, knocking her to the ground, still stunned. She struggles to stand...
"Oh this might be it, ladies and gentlemen, Launch is on the ground and might not be able to get up in time. We'll start the count! One...! Two...!"
The look on your friend's face tells you she's not ready to give up yet.

Only 4 of them. Have them ripple fire to keep the stun up as long as possible.
The other 6 stay around us in Barrier formation.

Kamehameha

This, 4 Bits maintaining the stun should last long enough for the Kamehameha to hit and we have our bases covered with the other 6 in case she pulls something.

What else did you expect from yamcha?
>>43877085

>>43877085
Kato, attacking an opponent when the count's started is against the rules.

She can just blast out of it. Our barriers are good for tanking one good blast.

Might be a tad difficult, given that healing organic life might be a bit "easier" for magic than a robot or something.
I get the feeling that magic healing for living things uses the target's body as a template on how exactly to go about healing (whether by DNA or by some other sort of mystical thing), but doing the same for a car or a robot might require blueprints and/or some sort of engineer to overseer what to do. It might be simpler to just find a way to magically manufacture the parts that the technician needs, then have them do the repairs manually.

Why is it called a ring if it's square?
Oh, while I remember, I think I came up with a plan to finally get our hands on Gero himself maybe, but we are going to need Bulma's help. We have two of his cyborgs here and an artificial demon, so if we managed to get some form of tracking bug on them, we could then find out where their home base is, as well as better protect Pilaf if we hurry. However, this tournament is our best shot at planting the bugs, so Bulma would likely have to rig them up for us.
>>43877590
Let's just use Shenron.
>>43877611
>And lo' a Shadow Dragon was made because we couldn't figure out where the hell Gero went.
Betcha Shenron can't even tell us.
>>43877625
>>43877611
On top of which we don't stop any of his current machinations in motion that can continue without him, his notes, his base of operations, maybe the name of that guy selling Tuffle tech to him, or any number of additional objectives. Besides, not like we are planning to murder them in the ring, though we know we might have to stop them for good outside of it if given no other choices.
>>43877625
We could wish for Gero to die.
>>43877718
He'sbeen dead this whole time. He's gone full cyberzombie.
>>43877625
Speaking of Shenron, doesn't Gero have dragon balls in his posession?
Those are the perfect thing to get.
>>43877718
Nah. Then his hate computer will just start up and we'll have 13-15 kicking our ass real soon.
Gero probably has contingency plans for his death, and Towa probably is protecting him with her own magic.
>>43877748
His brain's still kicking. With a PL of 0.5 or something.
>>43877763
Those are the perfect thing to get a scan for*
Y'know since we already have one.
Hey, wouldn't it be funny if we used Shenron to remove all the heartbombs and give them to Gero?

You watch Launch carefully, your Spirit Bits ready in case she tries something. You notice her start to smirk...
"Five...! Six...!"
Suddenly Launch bolts upwards, attacking the Spirit Bits themselves with a shout of... "Volleyball Fist!" And she somehow manages to spike them towards you, with you unable to redirect them in time. However, you're more than ready for her trick, dodging aside as one after the other they slam into the ground. As you try to move them, Launch keeps up her attack on them directly. So that's how it'll be, huh?
You keep to the ground, making Launch waste her efforts on this. Once she's done, a final spike aimed at you, you manage to focus the bit just enough to let it fire off a shot at her. she clearly wasn't expecting that, as it stuns her, the thing just barely missing your head.
The crowds are roaring with excitement.

You don't wait for her to fall. You pull your arm back, two Spirit Bits circling around your fist. "HALLOWED RUSH!" you say with a roar of a yell, punching forward, the Spirit Bits meeting with your fist as you feel them start to pull you forward as you bolt at your opponent. Your fist slams into Launch's gut hard, sending her falling to the ground, slamming into the area outside the ring with a powerful "THUD," leaving a small crater.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Launch is out of bounds! Maple advances to the quarter-finals!"
You let out a sigh of relief, floating down to Launch and offering to help her up. "Heh, nice job, Super Human."
She stands, and gives you a gentle noogie. "You did good kid, almost had ya' but seems like you were just one step ahead."
"That was pretty clever, using the Spirit Bits against me." you admit, smiling as you walk with her. The two of you reach your friends, Goku and Krillin tapping their fists as he's called to the next match. You do the same. "Good luck out there, Krillmaster."
"Heh! I don't need luck this time around, but thanks." he responds, placing his hands behind his head.
Sugil hands her little mirror over to Tyz as she walks forward, her hips giving a flirty little sway. She speaks to you, saying in a bit of an arrogant but somewhat respectful tone, "Nicely done, it's different seeing it all up close. I look forward to facing you next round."
"Don't think you'll be claiming victory so easily." Lazuli warns her, giving a bit of a pout.
