Divine heat emitted from Goku's body. The essence of his body's desire to survive burned throughout it all . Vegeta lifted himself from the ground and took a view of the scenery for himself.

Vegeta: “That's..ultra instinct, but it's not completed like with Jiren.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQIa4ocwiy
Kasai: “What… What is this pressure I feel? It's radiating from his presence!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEL5dQwsyF
Kasai peered over to his fallen ally in shock.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75xK5SiKll
Kasai: “Pouwar, she sustained the damage of multiple attacks and yet, I only bore-witness to a single blow…”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhqkljK4LI
Krillin: “He's closing in on us!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLjXOUDkJ4
Nozomu made light work of the team's attacks, burning and evading them simultaneously. He rapidly closed the distance between himself and the warriors.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWFIFD90mS
Piccolo: “Watch out!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YN3TOL9Jk
Yamcha: “Huh!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTbMV0RNdd
Nozomu reached Yamcha, launching a fearsome punch in his direction. Piccolo intercepted the blow, taking the punch instead. The blow knocked the 2 on each other, causing both to fall. Nozomu switched his aim towards Krillin, delivering a kick to his face before he had any time to react.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0owtJjIcRp
Tien: “Krillin! No! He made contact with him, he'll disintegrate in seconds!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGt73OjHgH9
Tien crumbled in defeat, feeling the pressure of his failure tearing him down. Krillin smashed into a nearby tree. His cheek was engulfed in fire.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7iLrcEACb
Nozomu: “That's one. Without the others around, giving you the same fate should be no issue.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXvKD6R7P7
Tien watched Krillin, feeling shame for his failure to save his friend. His shame turned into shock after noticing a minor detail.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAVUyaRqFK
Tien: “Huh? The fire is going out!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULxQYZRDGh
Nozomu: “What? That's impossible!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqqCy39nOU
The flames extinguished themselves, leaving Krillin unphased from their heat. He struggled to catch his balance, suffering the effects of his injuries from the kick.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWMYZVsMxI
Krillin: “Hehe, it worked…”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQTraXP7VH
Krillin managed to stand and joined his ally in the battle.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS1LIj4ofz
Krillin: “Have you noticed something Tien?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4va3vPnKs
Tien: “Noticed what?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdS26a7Ya5U
Krillin: “He could've just hit us with some big fire attack and disintegrate all of us at once, yet he hasn't. It was just a guess but I was right, his fire can only disintegrate one thing at a time. Once it makes contact with anything, it disintegrates almost immediately. But it doesn't spread onto anything else. I had no choice at this point, it was either test my theory or die doing nothing. I placed my own ki around me as a barrier and compressed it all into the spot he attacked, his flames burned the barrier instead of me, unfortunately I can't say the barrier did much to stop the force of his kick. I'll definitely die if I take another one of those..”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrTtOc1GV9
Tien: “I think we both know this already, but he probably won't go for just one blow this time. Whether we can or can't block the fire in time, the force of his attacks alone is enough to kill us. We have to keep him away as long as possible, even if the others aren't in a condition to fight right now.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuTmJORI3V
Krillin: “Well, we're out of tricks. Except one.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvvhz9Y7Tk
Tien: “What do you have in mind?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasNYoomStq
Krillin: “It's a technique I picked up on from Jackie Chun, or should I say, Master Roshi.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDht0iesHO
Tien: “So you knew.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW63naVZmJ
Krillin: “Not at the time, but I put the pieces together eventually. You know Tien, since that day you fought my master, you abandoned the crane school and went down your own path. Despite fighting by our side, you've never been a part of the turtle school. Today, Imma need you to change that, if there's anyone who can pick up on this technique, it's you.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfwuyYbJPJ
Tien: “What technique?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnx8E1fFrX3
Krillin: “Haaaaaaa!!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXRZ05oyfJ
Krillin's hands lit up, they were surrounded with energy that flowed like electricity. His body tensed up as he focused all of his ki into his hands. Nozomu quit waiting for his opponents to make a move and took the initiative. He went in, prepared to end both of them swiftly.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt71SQy3Jo
Krillin: “Lightning flash surprise attack!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkh8lfi4eq
Nozomu found himself trapped by energy that took the form of thunder. His movements were constricted but his discomfort was minimal.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJIb7siSNg
Krillin: “It's a binding attack that's also supposed to cause the victim excruciating pain. His body naturally burns ki so the only way to keep him put is by constantly fueling the technique. I need you to do it with me, it's the only way to keep him put!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaYBHYMfdK
Tien: “Hmm.. perhaps Master Roshi never taught me anything about fighting, but it's thanks to him that I've lived a fulfilling life of improvement. He's been a teacher to me too. His ways live within me even if it's not directly in the way I fight. I too am a representative of the turtle school way! And I'll die embracing that if I must!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPY6hXAFEC
Tien charged his ki in a similar manner to Krillin, releasing the same binding wave of ki upon Nozomu. Nozomu became even more constricted, struggling to break free of their grasp.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aGGbgnX0T
"Damn it! At this rate, they're forcing me to use my flames constantly! Each use gradually drains my ki, I'll run low if I continue like this!"
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JRCc5hy4Y
Nozomu grew frustrated with his situation. He pushed back against the bind, using his overwhelming power to burn his way through. The proud turtle school students struggled to keep the technique stable.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tnPvtWsNg
Krillin: “Crap! Hold…on..just a bit.. longer!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgsggEWn1e
Tien: “Don't give in yet, Krillin!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQOsA1HHoV
The duo fought with all their might to keep their enemy in place, but the struggle was gradually shifting away from their favor. Nozomu was suddenly stopped in his tracks as he succumbed to a great inner pain and loss of control over his body.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDI0wtM1zTB
Krillin: “What the-”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySeJ8bC8zD
Tien: “Chiaotzu!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc826DYK8Ay
Chiaotzu: “Hi Tien! I know you told me to stay behind, but I felt your power levels drop, I couldn't sit around and do nothing!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK7rlXXbwr
Krillin: “Well you just did more than you know little buddy! Thanks to you, holding this guy down should be a breeze now!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqW90lnmA8
Nozomu: “But how? How does his technique penetrate my flames?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXiSFm8IgK
Tien: “Your fire only burns through anything physical, even spiritual energy can generate physical mass, but Chiaotzu's psychic abilities don't work that way. Simply put it, you have no counter to his power.”

Kasai rushed Goku, attacking the godly saiyan with his all. His efforts were futile, Goku dodged and blocked everything Kasai would do. He grew frustrated, using different techniques for a chance at an opening. He tossed his flame rope, catching a hold of Goku's wrist. The calm warrior twisted his body, causing the rope to yank Kasai towards himself. He landed an elbow strike to Kasai's cheek. Goku's aura vaporized the rope, leaving the two a few feet apart just as they previously stood.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGyQKInwKw
Kasai: “Nothing I do can phase him! His aura over powers my divine flames as well!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdDb57vzDd
Goku didn't waste any more time and proceeded with an attack of his own. Goku raised his leg to advance but found himself having already crossed Kasai. Before Goku himself could perceive it, Kasai had already been dealt multiple blows. Kasai turned around to deliver a counter attack, but Goku's hand had reached him first. His fingers were carefully placed on his chest. Kasai had no time to react as he was caught by a deadly one inch punch that sent the rage driven prince crashing into a hill. Pouwar rose from the ground.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06uEY0ORPr
Pouwar: “He's fast, but those attacks have gotten lighter from when he had blue hair! You hit like a princess-”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XuCSMGESg
Vegeta: “Final flash!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8t3mmr0DOn
Pouwar was slammed by the full force of Vegeta's ultimate attack. Having given it his all, Vegeta was left drained and Pouwar was knocked out.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSe6QZSXBy
Kasai: “Pouwar! ….I'll kill you! Criminal! This isn't about my people, or even Amaterazu! I'm going to kill you in the name of my father!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ow3ucpc0E
Kasai charged towards Goku at blinding speeds. He went in for a punch which Goku managed to dodge at the last second. The godly powered saiyan delivered a counter punch of his own, striking him in the ribs. Kasai's armor shattered along with some of his exterior scales. He spit blood from his mouth but ignored the pain and raised his leg up high.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03wpr0cOgN
Kasai: “Burning axe!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ97ut6fOV
He lit his leg on fire and dropped it, slamming it down with incredible force. Goku leapt out the way even evading the surrounding flames from the impact. He got in two hits before creating more distance between them. The blows created more cracks on Kasai's skin. A bright glow illuminated from each crack. Flames burned from the cracks as Kasai continued his relentless assault.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqfMDwPaR6
Kasai: “Elegant flames of the sun!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAIRCoP8oK
He let out a barrage of precise and sharp blows from his finger tips. Goku slipped and made his way around every last attack but was beginning to get grazed by the heat emitting from Kasai's body. After some more swings, Goku found a short opening which he took advantage of immediately, landing a powerful kick to Kasai's stomach, creating even more cracks on his body. The kick sent him flying back until he caught his balance once again. Kasai extended out his arms and legs and shouted, releasing flames from the cracks on his body. Goku had just managed to block them but suffered a few burns. The flames continued as Kasai vented his frustration. Goku kept his distance before going in and flawlessly evading the flames and closing the gap between them. He kicked Kasai in the head, knocking him to the ground. Kasai immediately stood back up with a glowing crack on his head. He took heavy breathes before putting his palms together. Fire leaked from his mouth as he did.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenTb5RxMxj
Kasai: “Divine royal musket!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIU69nlIoG
He shot out a burst of fire shaped like a cannon ball from his palms and his mouth, straight to Goku. Goku focused his power into his fist, the strength built up until he released it all with one mighty shockwave shaped like a miniature silver dragon. The wave completely decimated Kasai's last ditch attack, catching him as well. He was slammed straight into a bunch of trees where he laid for a while. His pain distracted him from an occurance that would soon shock him.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT8sBS3dF8
Kasai: “No! No! No! My divine flames! They're… They're dying?!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7LDBLrKbP
The flames that engulfed his body gradually shrunk. He looked over at his comrades, Pouwar was out of commission, her flames had also decreased. Nozomu was under the mercy of the mighty earthlings, the fire that once illuminated his body had met the same fate.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o7En8FjC0
Kasai: “But how? This fire is supposed to be undying, it was a gift from Amaterazu's will itself!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFY3AJ6WIn
Kasai punched the ground, creating massive craters. Tears viciously ran down his face as he was overcome by his rage and sorrow. His flames had extinguished but his cracks remained illuminated.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wzrmnnfXK
Kasai: “What the hell am I doing wrong? I've failed my father! I've failed my people! I've failed my God! But most importantly… I've failed myself… I'm really not a worthy successor of the great man that came before me. I'm just another pawn of fate's cruel game. Why must my life be the one overcome with grief and misfortune! Why?!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPmuJ4owDV
"Kasai, my boy, you've seem to have truly lost your way."
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xInGR056N
Kasai snapped out of his sorrow and turned to the familiar voice.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMpxp28dJt
Kasai: “Father?? Could it really be you who graces me with your presence?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fOSvIV3yo
Modora: “Yes, my son. Even when our people fall, our will lives within the rest who remain. It pains me to see you in such a state, my son.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJGmyCZLr7
Kasai: “Father.. I've failed you, I've failed everyone. All I wanted was to make you proud and to become the leader our people needed, to become the beacon of which Amaterazu would rise. But that man, he took you from me, he took away my chance to ever get your approval, and now, he's going to take away everything else. I don't know what to do anymore, Father. I think Amaterazu has abandoned us….”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1I5czpfST
Modora: “You are mistaken, my boy, all is not yet lost. I didn't lead my people through wisdom and power alone, I also led them with hope. Their hope and my own. That is Amaterazu, hope. You've been searching for him all along but the truth is my son, Amaterazu lives within all of us. Only the ones who can truly grasp such a concept will have the blessing to bring him out.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUOdkfUI8H
Kasai: “But if that's the case… why didn't you bring him out sooner?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21hznWvuSJ
Modora: “Perhaps I could have if I truly sought it out, but I had always known you were the one more fit for the role. Who was I to deny you of your fate?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sVWvXlRPP
Kasai: “I understand now, Amaterazu has not abandoned me, it is I who abandoned him and in return led my allies down the same path. It is my responsibility to take that back. Amaterazu is within me, within all of us. The hope of my people rests within me, I shall answer their prayers by embracing our beloved diety!”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4UrBGjrtS
The cracks in Kasai's body let out a brighter glow than before. His skin cracked further as pieces of it began to fall apart. Pouwar and Nozomu were suddenly experiencing the same phenomenon. Pouwar's body rose from the floor and Nozomu's body was freed from the bind.
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig8Xm2NXh2
Krillin: “What the hell is going on!?”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIArqDK3vyv
Modora: “That's right! You have found your way, my son.”
253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYa4pVOJ42
A divine light shone from the cracks of the trio's bodies. Their skin cracked open like a shell, revealing bright silhouettes of themselves. The illuminated constructs merged into one, releasing one last incredible glow. A dragon like figure emerged from the glow. Its eyes glowed in a way that matched the blazing fire that burned endlessly from its forearms. It wore a shiny golden armor that perfectly suited its body. The heat emitted from its mere presence created tears in space time, causing inexplicable phenomenons. Its voice echoed with a sound of divinity.
