The young man in the orange martial arts uniform... was none other than Gohan. He felt how the fight in the distance was apparently intensifying, due to the disordered Ki of the unknown person.
Gohan, though reluctant, thought about going to see who was fighting the Androids; he believed that's what was happening with that disordered Ki, as there would be no other reason for that Ki to be in such a state.
The moment he was about to take off from the ground, a young but brave voice was heard from behind.
—Brother Gohan, did you also feel that Ki? —the question was asked by a young man with blue hair.
Gohan turned to see the young man; he wore a long-sleeved Capsule Corporation sweater, gray martial arts pants with black boots... it was Trunks.
—Yes, I felt it too. I was just about to go see what is going on with that Ki.
—Can I go see too, Brother Gohan? —Trunks asked, somewhat anxious to see what was happening.
—No, Trunks, stay here, it's dangerous. You must look after Aunt Bulma —Gohan spoke firmly, not letting Trunks contradict him.
—... Alright, Brother Gohan, be careful —though reluctant, Trunks could see Gohan's severe seriousness.
As stubborn as he was now, he didn't want to put Gohan in danger either; it's not like he was going to fight that unknown person, right?
Gohan, of course, noticed Trunks' mood; he slowly approached him and gently patted his shoulder.
—Don't worry, Trunks. You can be stronger than me; you just have to wait a while for it to happen. Everything in its own time.
—I understand, Brother Gohan. Be careful —Trunks breathed, then replied to Gohan with calm and firmness.
—Good. Remember to keep an eye on the surroundings and take care of Aunt Bulma —having said this, Gohan rose into the air.
Then a whitish aura surrounded him as he quickly flew off in the direction of the Central Capital.
Central Capital.
In this already destroyed city, it was now even more shattered. In the distance, roars were heard accompanied by the vibration of the ground, making this city feel somewhat alive.
In one part of the city, Arthur descended from the air to the top of a building, while lightly shaking the dust off his body as he looked forward.
There were the two Androids, each also on top of a building, with their clothes somewhat torn and dirt on their bodies, with a harsh panting not from exhaustion, but from rage.
They didn't know why the guy in front of them could fight them on equal terms; even after an intense fight, the guy didn't seem tired, even if at first both felt that he was nothing more than a beginner in fighting.
—Not attacking? Fine... I'll do it —with a cold laugh, Arthur lunged at the two Androids.
First, he attacked Android No. 18. Appearing in front of her, he threw a punch; the Android could only block with her arms in front of her, then a force slightly superior to hers sent her flying downwards.
At that moment, Android No. 17 lunged from the side, with a kick aimed at Arthur's neck. He quickly crossed his left arm against the attack, blocking Android No. 17's kick without backing down.
Android No. 17 didn't stop there; he quickly began to throw punches and kicks at Arthur, who quickly began to block No. 17's attacks calmly; first, he was learning to defend.
In the first place, it's not like he was a fighting expert, so first he learned to defend himself against attacks, which was easy; Broly's power truly made him adapt in a terrifying way.
—Do you really like to attack? It's my turn —having said those words, Arthur grabbed Android No. 17's wrist.
With force, he descended rapidly; then, before hitting a building, he threw Android No. 17 against it, causing him to crash through it from top to bottom, creating a cloud of smoke and dust.
After doing this, Arthur shifted his gaze to the left; with force, he swung his hand toward the sky. At that moment, a purple energy sphere struck his arm, then was deflected toward the sky.
Where, after flying hundreds of meters, it exploded in a flashing explosion that lit up the sky for hundreds of kilometers while the shockwave hit the city below, further shattering the ruins that were being destroyed more and more.
Arthur didn't look at the explosion above too much; with his right hand, he blocked the punch in front of him delivered by Android No. 18. Before counterattacking, he quickly blocked a kick from Android No. 17 with his left leg.
Then the two Androids, like wild beasts, intensified their attacks on Arthur, who no longer wanted to play with these two guys. Deflecting their attacks, at one point he struck them in the abdomen with two strong knee strikes, making them arch in pain.
As if that wasn't enough, he gave a knee strike to Android No. 17's face, then an elbow to the back, slamming him against the ground. Without stopping, he punched Android No. 18 in the ribs, which sent her flying.
Arthur quickly followed her; in the air, joining his two hands, he gave a strong hammer blow to the Android's back.
—Ah! —with a cry of pain, the Android crashed into the ruins of several buildings.
After doing this, Arthur descended to the ground, stopping a few meters from the two Androids; he hadn't sent them too far with his attacks. While he waited for them to get up, the sky darkened... Then the rain fell.
Cleaning the filth of this city, more than that, it was like an ominous declaration of what was about to happen. Shortly after the rain began to fall, from the ruins on the right, a strong explosion destroyed the debris of that place.
Android No. 17 emerged from the smoke, with his broken nose dripping blood and blood also at the corners of his mouth. Although he was in that pitiful state, as he looked at Arthur, he had a look that was angry and scared at the same time.
—Damn you... how can you be so strong? —Android No. 17 growled as he clenched his fists until they bled.
—That's exactly what all the people you killed for fun thought. Fear?... it's the least that beings like you should feel —Arthur replied coldly to No. 17.
At that instant, another even greater explosion on the left made the city tremble. It was Android No. 18, who was bleeding from her mouth and had blood on her forehead.
Just like Android No. 17, she had an angry and scared look—more scared than anything else. Silence haunted the place; none of the three said anything, they simply looked at each other in silence.
When the rainwater had already soaked their bodies, the two Androids looked at each other out of the corner of their eyes, as if they had a tacit understanding. They quickly rose into the air; with an agile movement, they raised their hands.
Android No. 17 his right hand and Android No. 18 her left hand; quickly, a terrifying energy sphere formed over the hands of both, which grew rapidly.
«These guys are truly crazy». Arthur thought this, somewhat helpless.
Throughout the fight, he had to deflect attacks from the crazed Android No. 18; out of rage, she didn't hold back her hand and launched energy spheres capable of destroying the Earth.
Now that he sees the two acting like this, he knows both are desperate. What does cause him a slight amusement is the rain; originally, that's how Gohan died at their hands, now the two will die in the same way.
When the two Androids' sphere was formed, both looked down with a crazy and desperate gaze.
—Die! —both shouted, launching the energy sphere downward.
Watching the falling sphere, Arthur extended his right hand to one side; a small green sphere began to condense slowly before the giant sphere in the sky fell further.
With force, Arthur threw the green energy sphere, which quickly collided with the sphere that glowed like fire. When they collided, the green sphere grew into a large sphere of green energy.
The two spheres clashed strongly, totally destroying the ruins of the city, while the wind swept away everything around.
—Damn it, I don't believe it! —Android No. 18 roared as she pushed more energy into the yellow sphere.
Beside her, Android No. 17 didn't stay behind; both didn't lack energy, so they crazily increased the size of the energy sphere.
Arthur looked at all this from the ground; he looked at the Androids' desperation, then at the surroundings made a mess by the energy clash; he knew he could no longer delay.
Letting the Androids' energy engulf his own, Arthur flexed both arms at his sides while a terrifying amount of greenish energy condensed in them; it even seemed like lightning enveloped his arms.
But to the Androids, it simply seemed that Arthur was giving up, which made them laugh crazily, as if they already had the victory in their hands.
—Haha, that's it... that's what happens for wanting to fight us! —Android No. 18 said, while her laughter filled the sky.
Beside her, Android No. 17 also laughed crazily, but he had a vague feeling that something was wrong... soon, he realized that feeling was true.
He saw from above how Arthur, with his hands full of greenish energy, joined his hands in front of him, so that in a second, a terrifying energy of the same color was formed and went directly toward them.
Neither he nor Android No. 18 had much time to react; their energy shattered upon contact with the green torrent, and then it hit them, gradually tearing their bodies apart.
Thus, in the midst of confusion and pain, the two Androids who caused endless terror in this world died. With their death, the sky was cleared by Arthur's energy that left the planet, exploding far from the Earth.
On the ground, Arthur watched as the sky cleared, letting in the sun's rays, staining the earth with their light. He watched all this calmly; it felt good, he had eliminated a stain, the darkness that covered this world.
Also, he had made it so the people of this world would manage to see a new world.
Arthur sighed before returning to normal; truly, trying to replicate Vegeta's attack left him exhausted, but at least he did it.
Sighing one last time, he turned to see the sky to his left; there, a familiar figure to him was flying over the sky. He recognized him; it was Gohan. In the end, he was able to meet the warrior who fought until the end for this world.
