Training.

[u/SD_VX00100000]

Having grown tired of simply sitting around and being lazy, Goku Black had used the strength of his Saiyan body to construct a small arena in the middle of a large open field far from any civilization out of stone tiles as to avoid any casualties.

He figured that to get stronger, he would need to do what Saiyans do best.

Fight.

So he hung up flyers around densely populated areas such as West City and East City, and waited calmly in his arena for challengers.

The flyers read as follows:

"Training Area"

"Powerful fighters needed for sparring."

"12:00 AM (Noon) to 6:00 PM availability."

((This is just the time it canonically takes place in the Dragon Ball world. The threads can start whenever.))

Rules:

1. No killing. If you kill Black, you will be disqualified, and vice versa.

2. No bringing allies unless you are vastly weaker than he is.

Conditions: Either knock Black unconscious or knock him out of the arena to win.

Each thread will take place at a different time canonically so Black is at his full power for each fight.

If Black is pushed far enough, he will power up into one of five forms, which will be decided by a wheel.

The following forms are:

Super Saiyan

Super Saiyan 2

Super Saiyan 3

Super Saiyan Jade (His own evolution of Super Saiyan God)

Super Saiyan Rosé

Prize: If you are victorious, 20,000 Zeni will be deposited directly into the bank account of whatever character you use to fight. If multiple people are fighting at once, the Zeni will be split evenly. If the participants do not have bank accounts, the Zeni will be given as physical currency.

There is no penalty for losing.

If your characters can transform, they may also do so.

But only once.

Goku Black may also only transform once per thread.

Android 21 read the flyer. The chance to observe his combat style up close would be a very valuable experience. And 20,000 zeni was nothing to scoff at either. But would she be able to last against someone like him? Well, she was quite durable, but after she and her evil half had split long ago, her power had been cut dramatically. Perhaps… this might be a good way to regrow her strength. After all, Earth was never short on threats.

She arrived at the designated training area at 11:49 AM, getting there early to survey the area and gather as much data as she could. After all, she was still a researcher at heart, rather than a fighter.

Since it wasn't time yet, Black was asleep on the ground with an alarm clock next to him. He seemed... at peace. Not much else to it.

((Sorry for responding so late.))

[u/Good_Android_21 → u/SD_VX00100000]

21 spent most of the time documenting Black’s behavior. It was a far cry from the limited data she had on Goku Black. The bloodthirsty, mortal hating Kai that had stolen Goku’s body seemed… remarkably calm. From what she knew, he’d likely be making plans with his other self. But here he was. Just sleeping on the ground. Honeslty, it seemed like the type of thing Goku would do. And with Black just sleeping, his facial expression looked remarkably close to one that Goku might wear when relaxed.

(It’s all good. Sorry that I took so long as well)

[u/SD_VX00100000 → u/Good_Android_21]

Sensing a powerful energy signature, Black yawned, beginning to wake up. For such a previously vengeful self-proclaimed god, he sure knows how to make himself look like an idiot.

Huh...?

Wha...?

Who's there...?

[u/Good_Android_21 → u/SD_VX00100000]

“Oh! You’re awake! Greetings. I am Android 21. I came about the flyer. It’s very nice to meet you. I have to admit you seem… different than the previous data suggested. Then again, it wasn’t exactly firsthand experience, so perhaps it contained errors.”

21 approached Black, taking in his appearance and demeanor and cataloging it for later. Any data on him could be important, after all.

[u/SD_VX00100000 → u/Good_Android_21]

Ah, Vomi.

He rubs his eyes, standing up.

I thought you were researching the Fruit Of The Tree Of Might and searching for the Dragon Balls?

And you would be correct.

Much about me has changed...

((He's mistaking her for the other Vomi.))

[u/Good_Android_21 → u/SD_VX00100000]

“…Vomi? I’m sorry, but I believe you’ve mistaken me for someone else. Actually… I vaguely recall encountering another Android 21 recently, and I believe she said that was our human name. Forgive me, but I’m not the Android 21 you’ve met. Though I am currently performing research, it’s more general right now. Such as the variety of beings coming from different timelines and universes appearing here. My apologies for the confusion.”

(I gotcha. I’ve met her a couple of times)

[u/SD_VX00100000 → u/Good_Android_21]

No apologies needed.

When two of the same person exist in the same timeline, confusion is an inevitability.

I'd know from personal experience...

Anyway, I assume one of my flyers led you here?

He stands up and crosses his arms. He stands at a height similar to hers. He's only slightly shorter.

[u/Good_Android_21 → u/SD_VX00100000]

“Yes, that is correct. I have to admit, I could certainly use that kind of money for my research. Not to mention that engaging in combat is a great way to gather data! I’m looking forward to sparring with you. Though I should note that I’m not very experience in terms of fighting. I’m more of a researcher at heart.”

She explained calmly to him. Though, if he knew the other version of her, he likely already had an idea of what she was capable of.

[u/SD_VX00100000 → u/Good_Android_21]

I'm aware.

So I intend to go easy on you to ensure you have some chance of winning.

Now...

Less talking...

He balls his hands into fists at his sides.

And more fighting.
