Chapter 87 - 87: To the Future

I expressed that I also had to go in order to meet the other me from the future but the pod that took F.Trunks to and from the future could at most fit the three of them. Goku, Vegeta and F.Trunks could fit but I told them that it was fine that I didn't have to go in with them for me to go to Trunks' parallel universe. At first I was given a confused look but I just gave a small smile instead. They proceeded into the machine.

Beerus: How do you plan on following them into that universe?

Sage: By analyzing the energy I can just follow them but since I have to feel out the entire process I just need to be on the outside of the vessel.

Beerus: Don't be thinking you can change time as you please as well.

Sage: I will keep it short like Whis-san does but mine is not as powerful.

Goku: Oy Sage, we're leaving!

I hold on to the outside of the ship and start feeling out the temporal energy. We arrive in the desolate and depressing land that is Trunks' timeline. I suppress my energy signature to almost invisibility status. The others jump out of the Time Machine and Trunks puts it away.

Vegeta: What happened to Sage? I thought he came with us.

Sage: I'm right beside you Vegeta-san.

Vegeta and the others were startled that I appeared out of nowhere. I mask my entire presence to get a better on the enemy and I could avoid being targeted by the normal people because Zamasu took over my body so they will be on the look out for me.

Vegeta: Why bother hiding?

Sage: To avoid being considered hostile by the minimal amount of people left here. No fuss and no mess.

Goku: Good idea. The guy that's causing the trouble looks like you anyway.

The place looked drearier than when the androids attacked. I searched for any signs of life but the numbers were miniscule. Trunks explained that everyone else was in hiding. They were in the middle of rebuilding until Black started attacking. He was eliminating people indiscriminately until Trunks put a damper on his killing spree. Trunks couldn't kill Black but stopped him from killing more people. A few minutes later a fluctuation of Ki could be felt in the air, we all turned around. A figure in the sky appeared.

Black: So this is where you were hiding.

F.Trunks: Black!

We all looked at the sky and for the life of me I could not tell who this Black was. Sure it had my face but the hair was different and the ki he gave off was familiar. I felt my Ki in him but also…Goku's Ki was also there. No wonder F.Trunks attacked me, not because it just looked like me but because the person was foreign to him. From the look to the feeling he gives off, Black is a fused body of Goku and I. The strength he gives off is way weaker than I expected. I can feel that he doesn't have a full grasp of the different powers that my body possesses and when mixed with Goku's theres too many secrets in our bodies for Black to tap into. He can't find a balance between the bodies. The Ki may be mine and Goku's but the presence was definitely someone else.

Black: Even if you hide your Ki and presence I can still see you.

Sage: And who are you to act all high and mighty?

Black: I am the Cure, and you mortals are the disease.

Sage: HAHAHA, says the guy in a stolen mortal body! What shitty holier than thou attitude! Who are you anyway,"Mr.Cure"? Will you sing it in an emo song?

I couldn't contain my laughter from laughing at this hypocrite. Black didn't seem too amused by my laughter and launched his attack. Vegeta won the Janken game and fought first.

Vegeta: Kakarot, I sense your Ki along with Sage's in him. If I can beat him with the both of you combined in him then the two of you will be nothing to me.

Goku: Say that if you actually beat him!

Sage: Vegeta-san, watch out for his eyes.

Vegeta nodded and went after Black. Black may not be "me" powerful but with the amount of time he had he may have been able to use some of my eyes power. From what I can remember of Zamasu's body possession in the original, was that he took Goku's body with the help of the Super Dragon Balls and nothing more. His wish this time must've been he wanted to possess the combined body of Goku and I. Zamasu must've seen Goku and my fight through the Kamitube (GodTube/ God Youtube) which shows Gods or Kais either mundane or significant events within the universes.

Vegeta wasn't doing too bad but was falling behind. Vegeta could keep up but he couldn't handle the power of the Rinnegan which was the only ability Black could use. Vegeta was being slowed down for less than a second in different instances but it was enough to get beat. I saw that Vegeta couldn't hold on much longer and I told Goku to play Janken for the next round. I won, so my fight would be much simpler.

Vegeta was finally taken down. Before Black stabbed Vegeta with a Ki hand blade I broke it and stood in front of him while eating the broken blade in my hand like it was candied glass.

Black: You dare stop me?!

Sage: Hey hey, it's my turn to play. Thanks for the snack.

I flashed in front Black and threw a left corkscrew uppercut into his ribs. I felt embarrassed that he possessed my body with this weak defense. I knew that he also let me hit him but that was only to activate the Zenkai and to gauge my abilty. I doubt he expected to take that much damage considering he vomited the food he ate, blood and some pieces of flesh. With my punch he was sent flying into a building. I took out one of my Senzu Beans and handed one to Vegeta. After Vegeta ate it he got up and went to Goku's side.

Vegeta: I don't know what he was doing but he was slowing down my reaction time by less than a second.

Sage: That's why I told you to watch out for his eyes.

Vegeta: His eyes did that?

Sage: Yes they did. Why would I warn you about something if it wasn't crucial? It shouldn't take much to put him down.

I knew that Black wasn't using the full extent of either my or Goku's body. When he figured out how to use the eyes even by a little he almost became dependant on them. So how will he deal with someone who has a similar or stronger ability than he does?
