"She's Android 21?"
Inside the training ground, Vegea was scrutinizing 21 with a sharp gaze.
"That's right. Bulma just finished running a full set of tests on her. All the data is nearly perfect. Now, I want to test her combat abilities," Yuujin said with a nod.
Vegea could sense that this Android 21 was very different from Android 18, Dark Android 18, and even Sharuru. Although she had many questions, her personality didn't allow her to pry unnecessarily.
Well, let her see for herself then—what's so special about this so-called Android 21?
"Anyone willing to test her combat strength?"
"Dad, me! Me!"
"I want to too!"
Yuujin glanced at the girls around him, and Trunksia and Goteno immediately volunteered excitedly.
"This isn't some game, you two just stay and watch."
Tapping their little heads, Yuujin spoke in exasperation.
Although 21 looked like an ordinary person on the outside, Yuujin could faintly sense a terrifying power within her. These two little ones still only had basic-level strength; they weren't qualified to test her.
"Aww, come on…"
"So, who among you is up for it?"
Goteno and Trunksia pouted in frustration, while Yuujin looked to the others.
Gokumi and Android 18 both seemed interested, but before they could speak, Sharuru stepped forward.
"Master, allow me to test her," Sharuru said with a cheerful smile—but it was clear she didn't mean well.
"What about you, 21?"
"I have no problem."
"Alright then, you two go ahead and spar."
Yuujin knew full well what Sharuru was up to—she just wanted an excuse to beat someone up. But since 21 herself agreed, there was no need to intervene.
And if the goal was to truly test 21's abilities, then a real fight was necessary. In that sense, Sharuru was actually the most suitable opponent.
"Go, 21!"
"Sharuru, don't bully her too much, alright?"
Under everyone's watchful eyes, 21 and Sharuru stepped into the center of the training ground.
Sharuru's power was immense. Her Golden Form was comparable to Yuujin and the others in their Super Saiyan 3 state. On the other hand, Android 21 inherited Bulma's genius intellect and Buu's vast power and abilities. Although she hadn't revealed her full strength yet, no one dared to underestimate her. Everyone was eager to see how this battle would play out.
"You once said I was defective."
"Though we're both tools and property of the Master, your arrogance is really annoying."
"Come then—use that stolen power of yours, and let's see who the real defective one is!"
Sharuru taunted 21 with a cold smirk, motioning for her to come.
"Right back at you. Isn't your power also stolen from Gokumi and Vegea?"
"Don't worry. I'll show you exactly what I'm capable of… senpai."
With a slight smirk, 21 didn't flinch despite Sharuru's overwhelming presence. At the same time, her body began to transform rapidly.
Her pupils turned blood-red, her hair and skin shifted to a soft pink just like Majin Buu. Her ears sharpened into elf-like points, and a long tail sprouted from her lower back.
Not only that, but her outfit morphed into something eerily similar to Buu's signature style.
If her previous white-lab-coat look gave off "hot scientist" vibes, then now she had fully transformed into a seductive sorceress!
"That's her Majin Form, huh? Looks just like Buu—even her aura feels the same."
"As expected of the 21 I created!"
"She can even transform like that? So cool!"
"Hey Buu, look! She looks just like you now!"
Everyone began chatting in surprise and excitement as they witnessed 21's transformation.
Even Yuujin gave a subtle nod. While 21 had looked like a regular person before, her transformation completely shifted her aura and appearance. Now, she radiated pure power—on par with a fully unleashed Buu.
Buu herself noticed too. She could sense that 21 had power identical to hers—but she didn't care much. Tearing off another piece of chocolate, she casually kept munching.
As long as her beloved Yuujin gave her fun things to eat and play with, nothing else really mattered.
"Hmph, now you look the part at least," Sharuru sneered, though inwardly she was already on high alert.
No wonder this new model of android, created from Lady Bulma's and Buu's cells, was so fearsome. She had only just been born and already possessed terrifying strength.
But Sharuru had her pride—there was no way she'd believe she'd lose!
"Let's begin, senpai. Our match." 21's voice was full of dark charm as she raised her hand.
"As you wish."
With a cold laugh, Sharuru and 21 burst with energy and charged at each other like lightning bolts.
"Ha ha ha ha haaaaaa!!!"
Their first clash sent shockwaves through the air, and then they exploded upward into a frenzy of blows.
Sharuru's strength went without saying. Her Golden Form put her at the peak level of the Temple warriors like Yuujin and Gokumi. Years of training and battle-hardened experience made her every move razor-sharp.
But 21 was no pushover. Her fusion with Buu's cells gave her monstrous strength right from birth. The clash between the two was intense, a fierce back-and-forth brawl.
Still, battle isn't just about raw power—martial techniques and experience are just as vital. And in that area, the newly born 21 was clearly no match for the seasoned Sharuru.
After a high-speed exchange in midair, Sharuru caught a flaw in 21's defense and slammed a powerful punch into her gut.
21 cried out in pain. But Sharuru, grinning wickedly, flashed behind her, grabbed her by the head, and drove her down from the sky with a mighty crash.
Smashing her face-first into the ground—despite the saying "never hit the face"—Sharuru showed no mercy. A cocky rookie daring to act arrogant in front of her? She was going to teach 21 a lesson.
Watching from the sidelines, Yuujin and the others winced. Even their own faces were starting to ache just from watching. Sharuru really was as ruthless as ever. They just hoped she wouldn't ruin 21's beautiful face.
