Chapter 267 - Frieza’s Temporarily Alliance.

(Kron-POV)

 

'Remind me why this madman is still breathing…' I thought, watching for an idle moment as he begun to laugh, all sense since left him as he laughed out loud, his rotten mood seemingly vanished… or plastered behind a bout of madness. He turned, arms held wide, a gaze filled of contempt and something I'd seen in Bulma's eyes all too commonly.

 

Ambition, for attacking me? For… taking the device, the dragon radar of which he should now believe there is but one of, the one I held. Finally, after a his long cackle, he heaved, breathing intensely, as his breathing steadied and he held his hands in front of his stomach, glancing at his hands.

 

"What!? do you believe I am in need of assistance from a backwards group as you lot? I'd die before I receive help from the likes of-" I fired off a 'Kings Scepter' towards his face, striking his eye, flickering in and using his head which now had one eye clenched closed, as a speed ball.

 

"Hmm! Don't need help Frieza, I wasn't asking because I think you would be someone to rely on, you runt! I'll say this, you order your soldiers to stand down and leave and I won't have to wipe out your entire little empire off the face of the earth. Though that would-"

 

I continued to use his head as a speed ball, then kneeing him in the gut as he collapsed to his knees, I was about to continue when his eyes glowed, firing off two twinned beams at me, the detonation paused my assault and he got to his feet, with a growl.

 

"A truce then m-monkey, until Moro is dealt with, as for my forces…" he went for the fallen scouter and then walked off, moving away and started murmuring to himself or to those listening in, which was a surprise for I knew what sort of prideful bastard he is. Seems killing him the first time was-

 

"-Commander, get it done!!" Frieza returned, now with scouter in hand, spittle covered the glass of the scouter.

 

"My men shall all return to my ship, they shall remain there on standby. Should I die before an hour when I next ask for a report on their status. So if you plan on trying your hand in killing me, they will be-"

 

"-Save your threats dwarf." I heard Cumber growl nearby, I replied, adding.

 

"Whatever floats your boat Frieza. Though your threat about your soldiers… only some of your commanders even have a chance in fighting the others, those of Earth and my fiends. And I won't forget, for an empty threat is still a threat. Will finish things after your friend is dealt with. As for why you came here? The dragon balls, you won't live long to get to use them. Now follow me, Cumber! Keep up Frieza." Gogeta then shouted as I, Cumber, Frieza took to the skies.

 

"Will remain here, keep an eye on all these soldiers, I won't be any help for I shall not exist soon." Gogeta turned as Piccolo added.

 

"... Come Gogeta, let them find this guy. We need to talk…" Piccolo's voice could no longer be heard by us three for we were already halfway up, I got the reading of the six Namekian dragon balls and were heading for them and, Moro too. Merus, who arrived via flying in silence, same direction as where Frieza and Gogeta's fight happened, landed nearby and spoke.

 

"I'll help as well, it was my fault he escaped. He shouldn't be treated as just a threat like Frieza here, Don't think I'll forgive your highness in destroying and releasing him-"

 

"-Quiet blue boy, your tone is a tad, disrespectful to someone way above your status. I'll be sure to remember you, whence I've done in the rest of your motley crew of space police." Frieza sneered, now ignoring the guy in favor in waiting for Kron, eyes glaring hatefully at him too.

 

(Piccolo-POV)

 

"Alright Piccolo, what did you want anyway. Forgive me but with the fighting stalled, I would be perchance take advantage of the pause and eat. I'm damned hungry!-" Piccolo sighed out, coughing, replying with a growl.

 

"Frieza is gone now and the fool made the mistake in ordering all his forces to go in one place. See where I'm going with this. Kron was right, it was an empty threat and we all know it. Will link up with the others, overlook their number and then deal with them all in one fell swoop. I think that was what Kron wanted, take them all out together… Anyway, you'll probably not like it, well… one half of you anyway." Gogeta made a face, thoughtful and scrutinizing his words, Piccolo was sure that Vegeta would be on board, maybe Tien as well. Gohan… maybe, the others? Piccolo would have to ask them all together to see.

 

The Frieza force already killed some of Earth's people, so they weren't innocent, even if they were weakling compared to them. Gogeta glowed, a blinding aura enveloped him, a brief moment before one Saiyan became two again, Goku stood there already rubbing his stomach which almost had Piccolo give a chuckle while Vegeta then folded his arms, eyes narrowed as he gaze upwards.

 

"Kakarot! Where did you leave the Senzu beans! I still won't be outclassed by the likes of Frieza. I'll follow them and join their bout." Goku responded, he started stretching his limbs in front of them as he laughed, speaking.

 

"As for your plan Piccolo…" at this Piccolo noted the change in Goku, a brief change of his tone, showing he must have thought it through just now, Piccolo hummed, his gaze locked on Goku.

 

"as to those of Frieza's men, some of them have harmed innocent people. If they all leave Earth after Moro is dealt with, they will all have to be defeated anyway. You heard Kron, he will definitely fight with Frieza. Will just have to be around the Frieza force and wait." Piccolo paused, removing a Senzu bean bag and taking two out, throwing the two to Vegeta and Goku, they caught them and Vegeta immediately took off. Goku glanced down at his, looking up.

 

"Anyway, with Vegeta gone, let's get everyone else and head to Frieza's spaceship. I will save this… and eat instead. Gohan should have a fridge on him."

 

(Tien-POV

 

"Goku, what's happened then. Is Frieza defeated And the… other guy." Tien, arrived with the others, seeing Piccolo, Goku coming towards them. Already there was Gohan, Sixteen, Raditz, Seventeen, Bardock, Vegeta Sr., Nappa, Dabura, Qrow and Krillin all assembled on a hill, overlooking that great big ship that Frieza came in on, also what remained of the Frieza's army along with the commanders of the army looking up at them, their gazes returned by them.

 

"Insects, the lot of them. If I fire but one blast, all that will be left will be those we could fight head on. The last contenders and with Frieza now off the planet, he wont be here to lead this bunch of hooligans to any sort of victory." Raditz remarked, sneering downwards, Dabura added with a deep chuckle.

 

"How long have Kron, his lapdog Cumber and Frieza been gone for, Piccolo." Piccolo's gaze didn't leave the army still assembling down below, Tien gazed at him as he replied.

"Hmph, five minutes tops. I've got to give it to him though, with Frieza off-world, and him ordering his henchmen to but one space, were in a pause as to how to proceed now. There are what, two thirds or less of what their numbers were when they arrived, we've taken out one of their commanders, the green guy too… All those commanders down below are capable of destroying earth with ease, their soldiers capable of further destroying towns and even cities… Raditz isn't wrong, but it is best to wait for now… I've got Senzu beans should anyone here be in need of having their strength renewed come the next skirmish with this lot." Piccolo juggled a bag in one hand simply, holding it in the palm of his right hand. Krillin sighed, while just now did Pyrrha and Yamcha arrive, looking battle wary.

 

"Well, look whose arrived now." Yamcha responded, looking to in need of a Senzu bean, the two of them got tossed one each by Piccolo.

 

"We took out some of their forces, en route here, then we sensed you all over her too and came to check out what was happening. Uh, what is-"

"-We're all having a break, it looks like yeah, take a bean and relax for now. I've sensed around and can confirm that all these guys are here now, anyone else say any different." Qrow then removed that flask of his and took a seat on the ground.

 

'Drinking? At a time like this, again!' Tien looked around at the others, though no one did so, Tien replied, skeptical about them 'all' being down there.

 

"Shouldn't we at least patrol the planet for a bit, there could be some of them hiding or-"

 

"-These soldiers have the but the basic skill in using their energy to fight. I doubt any but the commanders have the niche ability to hide their powers, so the grunts should all be here now… As for the commanders? I wouldn't be sure of their real number. Heal up and-" then Shin appeared, Kibito right next to him, he appeared with a bag of Senzu beans in hand.

 

"Here, another bag, regards of Winter Schnee. I heard the fighting has paused on Earth, King Kai is our eyes and-"

 

"-Does he confirm that 'all' our enemies are in one spot, down below next to that ugly colossal ship of Frieza's?" Raditz interrupted, though Shin didn't show no signs of annoyance in being interrupted.

 

"They are all there, two of them have been taken out. One by Pyrrha and Yamcha, one by Piccolo, Seventeen and Kron."

 

"Well, who did Pyrrha take out then." she then shrugged her shoulders, rubbing the back of her neck briefly.

 

"A commander, though he was only ten times stronger than the average soldier down below. Is Kron going to be fine, with that Cumber and Frieza with him. Tell me we're not partnering up with that guy, his army has already made casualties in some rural farming communities and a town." she gaze down with scorn at the soldiers below, Tien replying with a grunt.

 

"No, pretty sure… by Piccolo's words that Kron is playing that guy like a fiddle. Made him come with him in order to spare the earth his kind of destruction. Goku fought the guy, ask him." Goku was busy drooling over the fridge that Gohan had set up, as the Saiyan's in particular, Krillin, Qrow and Yamcha were all eating from. Goku swallowed,. replying with a blink.

 

"Y-Yeah Frieza is something else, wish we'd fought him a bit more seriously but well, the fusion of Vegeta and I has a conscious of his own, blended by the personalities and abilities of Vegeta and me. What I do remember, and from witnessing the battlefield, Frieza wouldn't hesitate to destroy this planet should he believes he's about to lose. Even used it as a means for his making his escape after our fight, when he looked like he was talking to someone mentally, like when I speak to King Kai or Shin here." Goku then continued to eat, smile back on his face and Shin replied with a cough.

 

"What of Merus. I've… he's been suspiciously noticeable since he arrived here with the rest of the Galactic patrol, also on that front, their galactic force has been sighted, repelling all raids of the Frieza Force wherever they came to blows, I felt I should mention this. As to Merus, his obsession of Moro is strange, he really blames himself for this millennia old wizard." Tien didn't really know the guy, only knew that he was an ally and that was what mattered. Let the Supreme Kai worry about something trivial, for until Moro and Frieza are dealt with… then things could back to normal around here.

 

(Kron-POV)

 

Trail-blazing through space on the lead of the Namekian dragon balls, Moro already left our solar system at this point, heading towards Sadala with us hot in his tail. Frieza took to the back of course, safest for him while Cumber was just slightly ahead of me, constantly scowling back at all of us, Merus nearest to me with a calm facade. Having Frieza in our ranks didn't mean much, he lost that red form he was within a few minutes after we left Earth, powering down to a form comparable to Coolers 'fifth Form' only different, unique to Frieza. The guy was a little fatigued from being Gogeta's punching bag, so this fight very well may be his last, dead to this Moro if he's not careful.

 

If not, dead to the rest of us, for I'd sensed Vegeta was closing in on us, him going faster, burning through energy I would bet, to get in on the action, for which he would be adamant in being apart of. Well, even if Moro could hide his own energy, he wasn't doing anything to hide the dragon balls, must think we're incapable of tracking the orbs, much like him.

 

'We were gaining on him, he was taking his sweet ass time in traveling between worlds.' Though not without reason I believed, for as we'd passed by a particular planet, there was no life on it I could sense and the planet was in the process of dying, as we passed by it, the planets lush green appeared to be in the process of withering, changing from green to brown, it was going real slow but already those on that planet which I would assume, only animals, were already drained.

 

"Vegeta, you've arrived? Have you come to die here and now. I could accommodate your demise after I deal with Moro, and these two monkeys… and that Galactic patrol member." Frieza's mocking tone blurted loudly, his energy blazing around him which made his voice carry through space and be heard. Vegeta ignored the bastard, coming up and flying along with me.

 

'Why is that bastard alive…' Vegeta's voice I heard within my mind, his words coming out with negativity, I relayed my thoughts on that back to him.

 

'He'll be dead in a few hours, or in a few minutes. We're coming in on Moro, the dragon balls, all six are indicated to be not too far away from us now. Keep up and ignore the prick, you'll get your chance after seeing that your fusion with Goku failed.'

 

Moro was ahead, all around him were the six Namekian dragon balls he'd stolen, he'd looked back and there was surprise laced within that old goat mug of his, his face… He turned fast, orbs suddenly halted with him as well, though Frieza went to the forefront and brought up a finger, using his own telekinesis which only marginally moved the orbs from Moro's side. Moro righted this, his glare towards everyone of our number, including the one named Merus. Moro spoke quite calmly now, finding his bravery, or was it pride.

 

"..." Moro glanced around, then looked to a lush world nearby, pointing down towards it.

 

"Will settle this down there, where these Namekian Dragon balls will remain until I destroy you all. I trust that is acceptable for you hero-types." he sneered, already heading for the planet, the six Namekian Dragon balls following after him. Vegeta and Cumber took off after him first, Merus a few seconds after they did while I took to the rear. The planet, I would call it temperate with green all over. We landed in a valley, the six dragon balls landing, no longer being controlled by Moro with telekinesis. Vegeta touched down first, arms folded and the wind billowed suddenly around him as he came down steadily while landing. Cumber came down hard, the ground underneath him parted into two small craters, he flexed both of his fists and glowered at Moro, who paid him no mind, instead looking towards Merus who just landed. I landed next to him. Frieza came down, his tails swishing, arms folded but a glare aimed at Moro.

 

"Go ahead then Frieza, your up. Cumber, your next then." I quickly added before Cumber could put in a word or two, which as he glared at me then, he was about to. No words came from Frieza, instead, the galactic tyrant begun to power up, his strength dramatically rising and the planet that was until now, tranquil and unaffected by Ki, now shook to the emperors energy generating. Already in his 'Fifth Form', his color scheme changed dramatically, to that of a red, color scheme aside… his power discharged around him as he finally took to the form.

 

"You'll pay for wasting my time old man. Though I won't be the one who fights you first… After all, what good are monkeys if not fighting." his glare had a tinge of amusement as he sneered towards Cumber, Vegeta and me.

 

'Seems he isn't as dumb as I thought.'

 

"Coward… Alright brute, have at him then, don't keep-"

 

"-We all need to fight him together, his power isn't just in his fighting ability. His magic, prior to his magic being sealed he was almost impossible to stop. Why aren't we not working together." Merus shouted, borderline angry at our 'taking turn's mentality. He was of course, right though I was eyeing the dragon balls and thumbing within my armor, my personal capsule, thinking.

 

"Hoh! Right then galactic cop. Will work together-" Vegeta began, though Cumber already took off, blasting straight for Moro and engaging him in melee combat, rapidly for which Moro showed ample skill in defending himself. Each blow, received, Cumber become enraged, for there seemed to be a reason for it that Cumber instinctively was picking up.

 

"He's slowly, but certainly draining what small amounts of energy after each contact is made between them, which with their speed in this starting bout, is not a small amount of energy being added to Moro's already concerning reserves."

 

Throwing my capsule for the Namekian dragon balls, I watched for the Capsule to be used and store those balls inside, though that didn't happen for as the Capsule almost hit, an invisible until now energy shield sprung up and bounced my capsule right back at me.

 

'All well, I needed to try.' I thought, it wasn't going to be easy then.
