One-Punch DxD: Neo Apex Chapter Scene
Added 2022-08-05 01:50:58 +0000 UTCThis is even more shameless advertising with the apex fight scene everyone is waiting for in the other story.
Saitama Vs Garou.
I am almost done writing out the second chapter after the next chapter.
HERE IT IS!
[Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames] + [Reduce (Poison of Eternal Destruction)] + [Roaring Aura Sky Ripping Fist]
Garou’s power was now fully unleashed.
Every supernatural being, Genos, Serafall, Diehauser, Azi Dahaka, Crom Cruach, Balor, Sirzechs, Ajuka, Falbium - everyone sensed it.
Cao Cao and the others felt like they were buried in the deepest depths of the world. Literally crushed under the weight of the world despite being far above the source of that power, a suffocating power of a being that transcended above Gods, above the limits of reality.
Serafall’s territory was not that far so she immediately flew in to investigate, recovered by the Phenex Tear.
Azazel and the others arrived in the Underworld just in time to witness the battle of the strongest.
Issei was busy recuperating with Kiyome’s Stjarna as… the damage was really, really bad.
Not even Asia could regenerate lost limbs with her Twilight Healing and Asclepius combo. Issei lost his eyes and most of his flesh was burned off, so Stjarna was now busy restoring Issei’s lost body parts with his own flesh and DNA, according to Kiyone, using the metamorphosis method.
Issei would live through it all, and they would not have to face the wrath of Saitama in the process.
Azazel did not expect to see the divine white flame and poison of eternal destruction dancing in a spiral cyclone in the distance.
“Impossible…”
Azazel was in the air with Vali.
Lavinia and the others were flying with the help of Le Fay’s magics, Mitsuya and Magnus dropping their jaws at the sight of toxic and flaming white consuming the land in the distance.
They arrived at Ajuka’s territory.
They could still see the destructive energies in the distance, towards the Sitri territory’s direction.
[Isn't that…?!] Albion shouted from Vali’s Armor.
“The Poison of Eternal Destruction…” Azazel uttered. “That is your sealed ultimate technique. And that is the Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames, Ddraig’s ultimate flame of destruction. I can't mistake those moves you two used to wipe out our armies. Why am I sensing those techniques? Did someone steal your and Ddraig’s powers?”
[What? No! I still have it! It's… I don't believe it! Someone else is using our skills!]
“Who?!” Vali shouted, unable to believe what he was hearing.
The cyclone of destruction traveled towards their direction as something flew out.
With their keen sight, they could distinguish Saitam flying out, his clothes undeterred by the mystic poison and flame as a demonic creature chased after him, battling with the strongest man.
If it were his normal clothes, they would be vaporized instantly. However, his clothes were enchanted by the three factions to be sturdy enough to take the harshest punishments.
“...Saitama?” Azazel and the others watched.
The unknown demon now had something else.
[Thousand Boosts in One]
[WHAT?! He used Boost a thousand times in one go?!]
Albion shouted with complete disbelief.
“Wait, he can do that?!” Vali shouted.
[Not normally! That many Boosts would kill anyone! Even Ddraig would be burned alive with his own power if he used it!]
Albion shouted back.
“Then why is he alive and well?!” Bikou shouted, feeling the power spiking enough to crush the space around them.
[I don't know!]
[Explosion] + [Thousand Hole Layer] + [Transfer]
A very large crimson sphere surrounded Saitama instantly.
“That is the Hole Ability of the Abaddon clan!” Azazel shouted.
Everyone watched as the demon transferred the power.
[Compression Divider]
The demon raised his crystal-armored hand at Saitama.
And then clenched his fist.
The Hole ability could not spawn a Black Hole phenomena. It was a harmless ability meant to transport matter and energy, not destroy it.
However, the stranger somehow managed to trigger one in front of their very eyes as the moment the Hole Ability activated, a literal black hole was summoned atop of the Underworld’s crust, a pure black sphere of annihilation in front of them.
“He… he summoned a black hole!”
Serafall could not believe what she was seeing in the distance, the land, air, and even light was being sucked inside of the singularity that was growing at a massive rate.
[Dimensional Collapse]
The flaming skull demon unclenched his fist as the black hole collapsed instantly and ignited a furious explosion so bright that it overwhelmed everything around them for miles, covering the entire half of the planet with cosmic light.
However, what happened next left everyone’s jaw hanging.
Right in the heart of the black hole - Saitama was seen standing, literally holding the edge of the hole with his bare hands, before he also literally brought the rest of his body out of the hole, before he forcefully closed the black hole itself.
“Okay, okay. I will say this - you've definitely improved during the years.” Saitama admitted as he turned to Garou.
“We’re not done yet!” Malacoda shouted.
In Garou’s hand was a wicked demonic spear that fit his size.
“I am Barbariccia!” A different, authoritarian voice spoke from the spear. “I am the Demon that Rejects the World! That Commands the World! I am the desire to defy the laws of reality! To take control of it!”
Garou twirled the spear in a masterful display of martial prowess, entering a stance as runic symbols lit the obsidian shaft to the white tip.
[Ten Thousand Boosts in One] + [Explosion] + [Power of Destruction] + [Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames] + [Reduce] + [Tear] + [Transfer]
Power explosively generated within that one spear.
The spike in power spiked everyone’s fear as they immediately ran away.
[Mystic Art: Heavenly Sky Splitting Spear Arts] + [Spear of Barbariccia: Destroy Saitama.]
Barbariccia’s powers allowed him to strike and destroy anything, even negate phenomena and manipulate reality to an extent.
Air, gravity, space, it all depends on what was written on the spear in the demonic language.
The more specific the words, the more potent the ability becomes. It could even ignore physical matter if it wished if it was not within the target specification of the words.
“Everyone, disperse!” Azazel shouted as the skull demon swung down.
Everyone was engulfed in its range of destruction.
It traveled across the crust, an omnidirectional wave of obliterating crimson energy.
Something with that much power would have skinned the world to the point of exposing the core of the planet to the surface air.
Everyone on its path should have been erased from existence, their souls sent to Oblivion without excuse, even Azazel and his company that was caught in the aftermath.
However, to everyone’s surprise…
Nothing was erased.
Azazel, Vali, Le Fay, Kuroka, Bikou, Arthur, Lavinia, Tobio, Magnus, and Mitsuya were fine.
They blinked as they patted themselves on the body.
“...What just happened?” Bikou asked.
“Did we survive?” Kuroka asked.
[...That was more than enough power to wipe out both Ophis and the Great Red at the same time.]
Albion gave his opinion.
Everyone turned to the two, seeing Saitama… naked.
He was fully naked this time.
“...That actually rattled my bones, I admit.” Saitama rolled his shoulders.
“Not even Barbariccia’s power can do it. Even so!”
Garou landed as he prepared many more attacks.
“Nah, it's my turn.”
Saitama appeared before Garou, a cloud of dust exploding from where he was before as he struck.
Serious Series: Two-Handed Serious Punch Combo
Saitama unleashed his true power. He knew when a man could withstand him going serious.
[Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist] + [Platinum Unscrupulous Rings]
However, Garou’s demon tail spun a triskele barrier in front of Saitama and deflected all of Saitama’s punches, the shockwaves tearing apart the land.
Saitama blinked at the counter.
“Wow… not bad.” Saitama was genuinely impressed.
“Alright, since you want to play this game, how about this?” Saitama smirked.
Boost
Saitama copied the Boost ability to everyone’s shock. Saitama saw it more than enough times from Issei that he technically should be able to pull it off.
Serious Series: Serious Strike
“We saw this coming!” Malacoda shouted as Garou deflected the serious strike back at Saitama’s face with his tail.
Everyone’s heart skipped a beat when they saw the demon sending Saitama’s fist right back into his face.
“...No way.” It was the first time Vali, anyone, saw someone contending with Saitama like this.
The shockwaves of the attack razed the land behind Saitama, a cone of unstoppable force erasing the trees and the mountains as far and wide as the eyes could see.
“...Huh.” Saitama blinked as Garou appeared before him.
[Libicocco: Flames of infinite passion] + [True Fa Jin] + [Exploding Rupture Soul Breaker Fist]
Garou followed it up with a two-handed Fa-Jin right into Saitama’s elbow, adding much extra force to the serious punch.
Libicocco’s power was to accelerate the increase of power of herself or her wielder to exponential heights. However, it was a dangerous power that threatened to burn her own existence if overused.
But Garou instantly mastered that technique.
The razed land behind Saitama immediately turned to powder as far as the eye could see as Garou unleashed every form of attack.
[Perfect Duplication]
Another skull demon, a reflection appeared behind Saitama.
[Ten Thousand Divides in One] + [Ten Thousand Boosts in One] + [Explosion] + [Serious Series: Two-Handed Serious Punch Combo] + [Roaring Aura Sky Ripping Fist] + [Draghignazzo: Baleful Flames of Obliteration]
Garou and his doppelganger drained Saitama’s power ten thousand times, then magnified their own ten thousand times more, then explosively multiplied his own power as he unleashed a two-pronged mirror assault.
His fists flared with the demonic power of the dragon of the Malebranche.
Draghignazzo’s power was like the Longinus Smasher of Ddraig, only it was heavily cursed in power aimed at nothing but the pure destruction of the world.
With Libicocco’s accelerating fire that further increased Garou’s power, their mirrored assault sandwiched Saitama as the shockwave and fire this time threatened to consume all of the underworld, spreading extremely far and wide as the Underworld quaked with rising intensity.
The air was violently vibrating, blurring the sight of all into abstract forms.
Then the very air started to ignite and explode.
The power of the Roaring Aura Sky Ripping Fist was at a level that it could turn every form of matter into pure energy, the energy of creation released, atomic bonds and even the quantum particles transformed into the undiluted energy of creation.
“Scatter!” Azazel shouted when the epicenter of the chaos was now engulfed in a pure energy of creation threatening to consume the entire underworld, the sound of beyond nuclear level explosions overlapping each other at faster-than-light speeds.
Then Garou and his doppelganger sent Saitama flying towards the Ajuka territory, another massive explosion igniting in that direction as Garou and his clone chased after him.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Within Garou’s mind, he was facing the baldy once again.
Ever since that day, ever since he nearly struck down GOD, Garou wanted to face the baldy again if he could to see where he stood now.
He was in his demonic form once more… it was a nostalgic form.
This time, he could assume it at will.
Every technique he learned from Shangri-La, every trick he copied from his battle against the Gods of Olympus, even Indra and… the person he once considered a friend.
To think he would resort to threatening children just to coerce him into sealing him.
He was in a landscape he did not recognize.
He was using many combinations of powers he witnessed and more… he did not know where some of these techniques came from. He did not question it as he continued.
He took the skies as he decided to resort to another mystic art.
Mystic Arts are a series of senjutsu based on a certain style, which Garou mastered so proficiently that the monks in Shangri-La were amazed.
He taught the kind monks everything he knew so they could raise a heroic champion amongst them in case he was missing, and to see if one of those little tykes there could reach his level.
He learned a lot from the monks, even the forbidden techniques there that involve death and the raising of the dead.
But he needed the best mystic arts he could think of to even scratch the Baldy.
[Penetrate]
Garou needed this.
He didn't use it that much because he didn't want to erase everything completely, or kill the baldy. The baldy was ridiculously invulnerable as usual, though.
[Mystic Art: Sword of the Heavenly Demon]
Garou took to the skies as a giant sword fell from the heavens.
Normally, the swords would be formed from pure ki, but with Garou’s knowledge of creation, he could instantly form physical swords from cosmic dust, imbued with great power.
Every sword he made could surpass even the greatest swords crafted in all of the nine realms.
The perfect clone he summoned flew into the sword and entered it, all of Garou’s entire power now one with that sword.
[Calcabrina: The Destroyer of Heaven and Earth]
He did not know the name, but he knew the power.
His size grew and grew, becoming larger and larger as he grabbed the heavenly jian as he flew higher, his size growing so large that his head could poke through the stratosphere.
He could see the shock on Saitama's face, seeing how he grew to such a ridiculous height.
He swung it down on Saitama, the power of his obscenely enlarged sword enough to cleave the Underworld in perfect two.
However, the baldy planted his feet to the ground when he swung and threw his fist up when the giant jian made contact.
Again, despite the augmentations, the baldy managed to bounce the blade back to the sound as the vibrations crackled the space of the Underworld and shattered stone and glass for miles.
Garou knew that he must be creative if he could even harm the baldy.
He returned to his normal size, still holding the heavenly sword containing an exact equal measure of his power, and summoned the demonic spear and threw it heavenward, right into a hyperspace gate with all of his might.
The hyperspace gate appeared in the orbit of the sun, falling into another hyperspace gate, in a perpetual falling loop that would continue to accelerate for as long as he wished, generating infinite accelerating velocity.
The words, Pierce Saitama, were written on the spear in a language that he somehow understood.
It was time to show the baldy what he could truly do.
[Fist of the True Godslayer]
Garou inhaled, summoning his awakening breath.
[One Hundred Thousand Divides in One] + [One Hundred Thousand Boosts in One] + [Explosion] + [Ultimate Technique: Downfall of the Cosmic Heaven] +...
Garou descended, his hand clad with the move he used to sunder GOD back in his realm.
He clad his fist with every single power he knew as he descended like a bolt of lightning. The Baldy raised his arm to defend against the ultimate karate chop.
However, that was a feint.
Underneath Saitama’s feet was a hyperspace gate opening when the impact landed.
Saitama was sent falling in a perpetual fall, between two Hyperspace Gates while he was still confused. Garou ascended to the Underworld’s orbit as he summoned Saitama into atmospheric entry, the baldy falling like a meteor much, much faster than the speed of light.
Barbariccia’s spear wasn't far behind, though Saitama caught the spear before it struck his throat.
The shockwave that exploded burned the land and scorched much of the buildings of the Ajuka territory along with some stray evil spirits.
Then Garou landed atop of the spear with the same ultimate technique with stronger output, his hand clad with every power in his knowledge, attempting to ram that spear into Saitama with all of the force and power he could muster.
This time, a fissure traveled across the Underworld, crossing almost all of the way across this planet, a chasm, an abyss, showing the magma veins underground for all to see, even a glimpse of the planet’s core.
Are you seeing this… Saitama? Do you see how far I've come?
Everyone in the Underworld sensed it.
Kokabiel even sensed it, despite being shackled and confined within Grigori's headquarters.
Baraqiel, Shamazai, and the others went to investigate.
Tannin, the former Dragon King, flew to the source.
Diehauser Belial, King of the Rating Games.
Bedeze Abaddon, second rank of the rating games.
Matilda Furfur.
Sirzechs Gremory and Ajuka Astaroth went to see.
Even Tiamat from her familiar forest took to the skies.
The destruction was even reaching her home as she arrived at the scene in the skies from a safe distance.
She saw the other Devils, Tannin, Fallen Angels, and even Crom Cruach in his dragon form.
Sirzechs and Ajuka arrived, joining them.
“Garou…” Crom uttered, unable to believe what he was seeing.
“Do you know the man that is endangering my home?” Tiamat asked with a tinge of venom.
“...A friend of mine.”
The Chaos Karma Dragon blinked once, twice at the reply she received before replying, “...I certainly did not expect that response from someone like you. To think Crom Cruach has a friend. Though I must ask, why is your friend destroying the Underworld? Who is your friend, anyways? He is too strong for… What is he?”
There were so many questions that she must ask.
She was extremely concerned when seeing the magma core of the Underworld.
“He… is currently enslaved against his will. Shiva threatened to destroy the humans under his protection to coerce his cooperation. I am trying to free him.” Crom Cruach answered.
“The Destroyer did that?” Sirzechs was shocked.
“Why is he so strong? How come we haven't heard of him before?” Ajuka asked as more and more devils joined, Roy Belphegor, some curious dragons from Dragon Mountain, Bedeze Abaddon.
“He prefers to keep to himself… but our world dragged him into its troubles.” Crom grimaced as Garou’s tail held the jian sword he forged from cosmic dust and imbued with his might and threw it down at Saitama’s eye.
Saitama rolled away just in time, throwing the flaming skull demon off him.
Garou landed on his feet as Saitama got up.
[A Hundred Thousand Boosts in One] + [Explosion] + [Power of Destruction] + [Kankara Formula] + [Cognazzo: Defile Perfection] + [Ciriatto: Energy Drain]
Cognazzo’s power allowed him to force weaknesses onto his victims. He could give a dragon a tremendous weakness to fire, bypassing all of its defenses. He could even worsen the weaknesses of the devil to the point of them being vaporized under sunlight alone.
Ciriatto allowed the wielder to drain the energies, the power of everything, the Dimensional Gap, Life Force, his range can extend across an entire world, even the cosmos if he desired. The catch was that the energy taken could permanently weaken his victims, lowering their levels as well.
““Impossible!””
Sirzechs and Ajuka watched as the stranger used both of their signature techniques, a completely dominated crimson stream of corruption consuming Saitama.
Saitama blinked as he was lifted by the corruption.
Saitama saw what appeared black corruption spreading from his feet, as if he was being drowned into a black pool. He glanced around and noticed that their fight had garnered many eyes from the distance.
“Uh-oh…” Saitama muttered. As much as he wanted to see the full extent of Garou’s current martial power, he could not afford to terrify the audience any longer.
However, he was suddenly being spun around, Saitama spinning like a top and a wheel, under the motion of a gyroscope that was spinning faster and faster and faster to the point of Saitama being a bit nauseous.
The corruption fused with the power of Erasure and Drain encircled Saitama into a sphere.
[A Hundred Thousand Layer Hole]
Then Saitama was trapped inside a energy sphere once more.
[Transfer]
Garou transferred the power he accumulated into the sphere.
[Compression Divide]
Now an even stronger black hole was generated into existence, shocking every except Azazel and his group.
[Dimensional Collapse]
Saitama was within another black hole as the singularity explosion covered the entire planet in cosmic light, forcing every devil to cover their eyes.
Some of the devils were even being burned by it, screaming and hissing from the pain.
Saitama immediately climbed out the same way as before and closed it.
But Garou’s palm pressed against his back.
“Return to Oblivion!” Malacoda shouted as Saitama instantly disappeared within the gateway to absolute nothingness.
Saitama shuddered upon being here.
It was like being in the darkest, most creepiest place he couldn't imagine.
It was not something words can describe other than ‘I must get out of here at all costs’. He couldn't see anything in this void. He couldn't sense anything.
Color doesn't even exist here. There were no words to describe having absolutely no color. At least black was a color, yet here there is not even a blackness or a whiteness.
[Copied Technique: Busted Gate of Oblivion]
It was extremely hard to pull this incomplete technique off as Saitama continuously punched the void hoping to set it off.
Then he managed to break something.
“Yes!” Saitama cheered as he seriously punched his way through the gate, returning to existence.
Only to see Garou throwing an extremely overcharged fist.
[Serious Strike] + [Exploding Heart Release Fist] + [White Hole Buster]
When there is a black hole, there is always a white hole.
After all, the energy generated within a black hole must go somewhere, and Garou had been storing all of that energy consumed by the black hole.
“Right, sorry, but I guess we gotta wrap this up for now.”
“...Eh?”
The Demons of Malebranche were caught off-guard yet again.
Garou threw his punch, but Saitama actually used the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist. One arm was vertical, hooking Garou’s white-hole fist, then Saitama, with his other hand, redirected the fist back into Garou’s chest.
All of the energy Garou generated was thrusted back into him instead with a peripeteia, a shocking reversal as Garou coughed, feeling the damage of his own attack.
An eruption of the purest energy exploded from Garou’s back and devoured a good chunk of the planet’s surface with cosmic fire.
Crom Cruach sniffed the air.
“...The atmosphere is turning poisonous.” Crom Cruach warned as he watched the white hot cosmic fire burn as far as the eye could see behind Garou.
Tiamat and Tannin sniffed the air, widening their eyes.
“This is bad.” Tiamat warned. “If this Garou continues to unleash more of his devastating techniques, he would render this world truly uninhabitable.”
Every Devil, Fallen Angel, and Dragon widened their eyes. Azazel’s group were even more shocked that a battle could escalate things this far.
Garou kicked Saitama away as he held his stomach, the damage instantly repaired as he glared at Saitama.
“What in the world can hurt you, Embodiment of Unfairness?!” Malacoda growled.
They used almost every combination of attacks they could think of that could harm the baldy, the strongest combinations.
In manners that wouldn't destroy this world.
If that wasn't enough…
Garou assumed his stance.
Then they needed to do more, more power, more everything.
Garou’s power started to rise even higher, his emotions triggering another explosive growth of strength as his aura leaked baleful potent energies from his demonic frame.
“Stop!”
However, a voice called out from the distance.
“Who dares to interrupt us?” Malacoda turned to the voice, seeing Serafall flying towards them.
