Chapter 551: Mechanism Cycle Constitution, Spiral Takeoff Combat Power

~14 min read 2,618 words

The fake before him had also transformed into a Super Saiyan state, and in terms of aura, the opponent was already not much inferior to himself.

Just as the Fake Broly condensed a new Gravity Energy Bullet in his hand, preparing to attack with even more violent power, Broly suddenly raised his palm toward the opponent.

"Eh, are you raising your hand to surrender?"

Seeing this, the Fake Broly actually stopped.

"No, what I mean is, can you not use energy bullets?"

Broly asked in a negotiating tone.

"You're scared?"

The Fake Broly raised an eyebrow.

"It's not that I'm scared, but in our current state, if we throw energy bullets around carelessly, there's a chance we might accidentally blow up the planet below. I don't want my friends to be caught in the crossfire, and you probably don't want your friends caught in it either, right?"

Broly's words made the Fake Broly think, but after just a second or two of thought, the other party nodded: "What you say makes sense."

He actively dispersed the Gravity Energy Bullet in his hand.

"Phew~"

Broly breathed a sigh of relief.

"No energy bullets, then let's continue with fist and foot techniques, and come settle who's superior!"

The Fake Broly changed his attack idea, but just then, he was stopped again by Broly's raised hand.

"What's wrong with you now?"

The figure flying over came to a sudden halt in mid-air; the Fake Broly looked somewhat dissatisfied at the genuine Broly opposite him who had a bit too many things going on.

"In this Super Saiyan state, even if we don't use energy bullets and only use fists and feet, we can still cause immense destruction."

As Broly spoke, he waved a fist casually at the sea waves that had been pressed back by the Gravity Energy Bullet and were now surging back toward the shore; the wind pressure shattered the giant waves and pushed the seabed back into exposure.

In the Super Saiyan state, even a punch thrown into empty air produces a fist wind of immense power.

"I want to change locations to fight, can we?"

"Fine, where do you want to fight?"

The Fake Broly had no objection; the genuine Broly raised his index finger pointing at the sky.

The next moment, the figures of the real and fake Broly both vanished without a trace, leaving only layers of cloud trails like those left by passing planes to prove they had gone to a higher sky.

"Oh, Xiao Yu, what happened here?"

Captain Black finally arrived here with drinks and hot dogs; looking at the originally beautiful coast now in a ruined state, the things in his hands dropped directly to the ground, and he hurriedly asked Xiao Yu.

"Was there a magic storm here?"

"Captain Black, I think it's worse than a storm. The Saint Lord stole the Talismans and created a fake Broly; the other party came to find trouble for us.

And the coast here being destroyed into a complete mess was caused during the fight between that fake Broly and Broly."

Xiao Yu explained the cause of the crime scene's formation, but Captain Black found it somewhat hard to believe: "Impossible, the Twelve Talismans are right now in District 13, and that place is very safe."

"You can call over there and ask."

Xiao Yu suggested; she didn't want to waste the effort persuading a stubborn person, so better let Captain Black verify it properly himself.

"Yes, Captain Black, the Twelve Talismans are inside the room; they have never left our District 13."

Captain Black quickly contacted District 13, then put his phone on speaker, letting Xiao Yu hear the staff's report for herself.

"Perhaps you should send someone in to check whether the Talismans are genuine."

Xiao Yu took the phone and suggested to the person on the other end.

"Captain Black, the Talismans are fake, made of plaster."

Not long after, an exclamation came from the other end.

"See, I told you the Talismans were stolen."

"This is a serious matter, Xiao Yu. Do you know where the Talismans are?"

Captain Black became serious at once.

"I know where some of the Talismans are — on that fake Broly."

Xiao Yu answered.

"Where is that guy now then?"

Captain Black hurriedly pressed the question.

"Went up to the sky."

Xiao Yu raised her index finger pointing at the sky.

"But I can't see anything."

Captain Black looked up at the sky; even though the sky was very clear, he couldn't see anything, simply because the real and fake Broly had already gone to the mesosphere position.

And this airspace is at least fifty kilometers from the ground; for Captain Black, a normal human, to be able to see anything with the naked eye would be a miracle.

"We might need an astronomical telescope."

Xiao Yu proposed.

"Mobilize the satellite; I need to know the current situation in the sky above the vacation island."

However, Captain Black had a better method; he directly had the District 13 staff send the footage captured by the satellite over to this side.

Xiao Yu followed him to the camouflage villa in the forest direction; the two quickly spotted an abnormal cloud region in the satellite's overhead view.

"That's the position, zoom in on the image for me!"

The image was zoomed in; two golden figures were continuously colliding in the sky above.

The speed was extremely fast; even after the satellite's overhead view zoomed in, it would often lose their traces.

"No good, the speed is too fast; we must zoom the image out a bit."

The image zoomed out again, only then could the movement trajectories of the two golden dots be clearly seen.

They collided at times, separated at times, and became entangled at times.

There was no sound, but Xiao Yu and Sheriff Black, watching, seemed able to daydream up the violent collision sounds made when the two clashed at extreme speed.

Judging from the visuals alone, it didn't seem as spectacular as the great battle against the Thunder Demon, but considering this was an overhead shot captured by satellite phone...

The visual reference was a vast expanse of sea and airspace as a background board, yet two small dots could still fight from one side to the other at great speed, then from the other side back to this side; Sheriff Black could understand the terror of it.

I fear even the newest fighter jet in the world couldn't touch the soles of the feet of those two small dots' movement speed.

"Which one is Broly?"

Marveling inwardly, Sheriff Black asked the question.

"You ask me, who do I ask?"

Xiao Yu looked speechlessly at Sheriff Black; as the view zoomed out and the figures shrank, their speed remained fast—how could anyone tell who was who?

"So can Broly beat Fake Broly?"

Sheriff Black asked what he most wanted to know.

"Oh, right, there's also this, Sheriff Black: Fake Broly has the Dog Talisman and Horse Talisman on him, so he's immortal."

"And Fake Broly's strength keeps growing stronger as Broly displays greater power; we must contact Father immediately to have him prepare a potion that can remove the talismans."

Xiao Yu was reliable—she remembered some details about Fake Broly that Broly had mentioned earlier, and now she took direct action to defeat the impostor Broly.

After contacting Father via satellite phone, Sheriff Black took Xiao Yu aboard the helicopter they had arrived in, heading back toward San Francisco.

"Broly, you have to hold on."

Along the way, Xiao Yu held a tablet, watching the overhead battle footage captured by satellite, silently cheering for her good friend in her heart.

Even though she couldn't tell which of the two golden dots on the screen was the real Broly, that didn't stop her from doing so.

As the saying goes: with the wind at your back, rely on Jackie Chan; against the wind, rely on Father; in desperate straits, rely on Xiao Yu.

Although Xiao Yu was now playing her part, having already arranged for Father to prepare the key item to defeat Fake Broly—the magic potion for removing talismans.

But at this moment, within the stratosphere of the atmosphere, Broly, locked in fierce combat with Fake Broly, was not in a desperate situation.

On the contrary, Broly's current power was like an inflating balloon, being blown up by the Strongest Concept that had never before shown any effect.

When the Holy Lord created Fake Broly, implanting other talismans, thinking this would help the fake defeat the genuine, that idea was not wrong.

Once Broly revealed his true strength and Fake Broly's combat power rose to the same level as his, the small amplification from the talismans became the key factor that made Fake Broly's strength surpass the real Broly by a hair.

However, the Holy Lord didn't know that Broly possessed rule-based power similar to talismans—when facing an enemy stronger than himself, he could temporarily amplify his combat power in battle, belonging to Alteus of the Star Cup World's Strongest Concept.

This concept had no effect when fighting his future self in the Six-Faced World, but when fighting the impostor version of himself in this world, the concept wasn't confused; it treated Broly and Fake Broly as the same individual, and for the first time, it exerted its effect.

The result was that Fake Broly, due to the talismans, had strength surpassing Broly by a hair, triggering Broly's Strongest Concept, causing his strength to overtake Fake Broly's in turn.

And because the real Broly then displayed even greater power, the Rat Talisman's ability to animate dead things and restore the target (which the Strongest Concept cannot replicate) once again brought Fake Broly's strength to a new peak, surpassing the real Broly once more.

Then came the cycle's result: this could be said to be less a battle between Broly and Fake Broly, and more a collision between the Star Cup World's Strongest Concept and the rule-based power formed by the combination of this world's Twelve Talismans.

At this moment, the two were like spokespersons for the world's righteous and demonic qi; because the rules on their bodies layered and formed a cycle, they created a mechanism of left foot stepping on right foot, with their strength constantly, unreasonably climbing upward.

【Fortunately, they had agreed not to use energy bullets.】

Broly felt the immense power continually surging within his body, somewhat glad that the impostor opposite him was also an honest person who kept his word.

Otherwise, with this constantly growing power, if they fought using energy bullets or qi-external techniques, they might accidentally destroy the entire planet below.

"Bang bang bang bang……"

And during the fierce battle, Broly also began to get injured.

However, Fake Broly had the Horse Talisman, and the real Broly also had healing magic.

With their strength now nearly equal, it was impossible to inflict fatal wounds on each other; instead, a strange state of evenly matched opposition formed.

And after confirming the opponent wouldn't recklessly break their agreement to use energy bullets, Broly stopped worrying about anything and began to enjoy this rare, evenly matched battle where he wasn't acting as an actor.

As the saying goes, worthy opponents meet worthy adversaries; battles with little difference in strength are the most interesting. At this moment, the real and fake Broly, exchanging right fist blows to each other's faces, felt like they were looking in a mirror, and both wore excited smiles on their faces.

Neither real nor fake mattered; at this moment, there were only two Saiyans excited by their evenly matched battle, venting the surging battle desire within their hearts.

Dopamine was being secreted, and the pleasure of battle exceeded the pain from exchanging blows.

"The magic potion for removing talismans, Father has already prepared it, but the problem is, how do we now get the potion that removes talismans into the hands of Broly, who is fighting the enemy up in the sky?"

Father's words left Xiao Yu and Sheriff Black, who had arrived at the antique shop, both stunned; they hadn't considered this problem before.

"Sheriff Black?"

Xiao Yu looked toward the bald sheriff, wanting to ask if he had a way to deliver the potion to Broly, but received a disappointing reply.

"Unfortunately, Broly has already reached the height of the Kármán Line; only satellites and spaceships can reach that place."

"Ah, are we just going to watch Broly fight alone, unable to do anything?"

Xiao Yu now felt a sense of loss at being unable to help her friend.

"That Fake Broly has the Dog Talisman and Horse Talisman; his condition will remain at its peak, and Broly will be worn to death."

Not knowing the effect of the Strongest Concept, Xiao Yu naturally worried about her friend's situation, but in fact, Alteus's Strongest Concept was also continually raising Broly's physical strength limit, and his qi showed no signs of exhaustion.

"Hey, they seem to have stopped."

Just as the atmosphere in the antique shop grew gloomy, the two golden dots on the satellite overhead view stopped; Tru saw it and immediately reminded the people around him.

"Was the win/loss decided?"

Broly and Fake Broly had not decided the win/loss; it was just that...

"I'm hungry, how about you?"

Broly rubbed his growling belly, raised his hand again to pause the battle, and asked the impostor opposite him.

"Uh, I'm hungry too."

Fake Broly, hearing this, his belly also made a sound.

"How about we pause the fight and go eat first?"

Broly proposed.

After saying that, he added another sentence, "I can treat you to a meal."

Hearing this, Fake Broly widened his eyes: "You want to treat me to a meal?"

"Mm."

After receiving an exact reply, Fake Broly's goodwill toward the real Broly increased greatly.

"Broly, you're really a good person. By the way, what do you want me to treat you to?"

Fake Broly handed the real Broly a Good Person Card, then started inquiring.

"You can eat whatever you want. I have a job in District 13; the cafeteria there can make many types of food, and the taste is not bad."

The two Brolys disappeared from the satellite overhead view, and by the time Sheriff Black received the news, the District 13 cafeteria was already under attack by the real and fake Brolys.

"So, you just turned enemies into friends like that?"

Arriving at District 13 and seeing the two Brolys sitting together harmoniously eating rice inside the cafeteria, Sheriff Black found it incredible.

However, not to mention that he found it incredible, even the Righteous Qi and Black Qi of this world, which had gradually boiled because of the fierce battle between the real and fake Brolys, were left at a loss because of the two suddenly stopping their fight and making peace.

This feeling was just like, Righteous Qi (Black Qi): "Your subjects were eager to fight to the death, Your Majesty, why did you surrender first?"

And the real and fake Brolys directly replied with actual action: Sky Big Earth Big, Hunger Greatest, let's go eat rice, we're not fighting anymore, farewell~

However, in a sense, this could also be considered another kind of Yin-Yang Balance; now both sides of Righteous Qi and Black Qi have lost their strongest enforcers.

"Broly, I've discovered that you're a better friend than the Holy Lord!"

Fake Broly spoke with feeling.

The Holy Lord only treated him to a Small Meal, but the real Broly treated him to a Big Meal.

Who is his better friend can be intuitively felt from the fullness of the belly.
