Dragon Ball and Fairy Tail: Wrath of the Reaper

Chapter 31: Determination

Shiripa let loose with a massive volley of ki blasts. Goku easily bobbed and weaved through the storm.

"Just die already!" Shiripa yelled. She stretched her arms and created two handfuls of energy. "Hakai!" Goku easily leaped over the attacks and kicked Shiripa down.

"HA!!" Goku launched a Kamehameha, leveling the surrounding area with a massive explosion. Goku landed at the edge of the crater. He stared at the smoldering center. Goku leaned to the side as a sharp rock erupted from behind them. He elbowed Shiripa in the face as she emerged from the ground. Goku grabbed her waist and slammed her into a hillside. Shiripa flexed her wrist and a slab of rock burst out, forcing Goku to leap away. Shiripa shot forward.

"ROT IN HELL YOU DAMN SAIYAN!!!" Goku adjusted his footing and matched Shiripa's fist.

A massive cloud of debris blocked out the sun.

"Brace!" Gohan shouted. Everyone took cover as the shockwave blasted past. While the wave passed quickly, a strong wind continued to pummel them. In the distance they could see two bright lights; one purple and one white.

"Looks like Kakarot is finally taking things seriously," Vegeta muttered.

"You mean to tell me he hasn't been going all out?!" Gray exclaimed.

"She may be on the level of Jiren, but Kakarot has improved, even if just slightly" Vegeta said.

"He's going to run out of stamina at this rate," Gohan murmured.

"Natsu!" Happy shouted as he flew in.

"Hey, buddy! Where you been?" Natsu asked as Happy hugged him.

"After Wendy ditched us we hid to avoid the ensuing chaos," Carla said as she floated down. She immediately began scolding Wendy.

"You could have gotten yourself killed! How could you be so recl-"

"Carla!" Gohan interrupted. "If Wendy hadn't acted when she did my father would be dead," He said firmly. Carla opened her mouth to argue but remained silent. Come on dad!

Goku and Shiripa locked hands.

Damn it all! It's taking everything I have to land basic hits on him. Come on, remember sparring with Marcarita. The only thing that ever worked was hitting her with a blast then striking before she could recover. "I, I won't let you win. I've been working too hard to change reality for the better, and I won't stop now," Shiripa snarled.

"You honestly think I still believe that garbage?" Goku crushed her right hand and threw her over his shoulder. "Your just like Frost, hiding your true nature. You're nothing but a psychopath trying to justify your actions," Goku said calmly. Shiripa struck the ground out of frustration. "I'll give you one last chance to leave, and never return. I suggest you take it," Goku turned and blocked a punch from behind. Alssa leaped over Goku and next to Shiripa. She gave her something and lept at Goku. He simply punched her straight up. Shiripa eyed the stone.

I see, good thinking Alssa. She quickly bit into the stone. A surge of fresh strength and magic energy flowed through her body. She let out a powerful roar as she began to change. Stone brown scales began to appear on her arms, neck, and under her eyes. She leaped forward and struck Goku's face.

"Stone Dragon, ROAR!!" The blast easily engulfed Goku and blasted him away. Shiripa rushed ahead of the spell and formed a large blast over her head. "HAKAI!!" She couldn't see what happened to Goku, but his screams were easy to hear. Shiripa licked her lips.

"What's wrong Goku? Is that Ultra Instinct not so invincible now?!" The blast impacted the ground about 500 yards from where Fairy Tail was hunkered down. The ground was evaporated on impact, leaving just a plume of smoke.

"FATHER!" Gohan cried. Both he and Natsu started to climb out when a large wall of ki shot up. Shiripa landed at the edge of the hole.

"Hm, I guess a dragon in a god's form is too much for even the legendary skills of Son Goku," Shiripa said. "While you stood in my way you have earned my respect," She turned to the others.

"Who's next?" Goku shot out and headbutted her in the ribs.

"He's okay!" Videl shouted.

"Stone Dragon Scales!" Shiripa covered her arms in stone as she blocked a punched from Goku. She grabbed his wrist. "Persistent bastard," She scoffed. The two swapped kicks and flew straight up.

"I guess it's time to see what this Dragon Force can really do," Goku said.

"Indeed," Shiripa smiled. She flew forward, but Goku dodged and elbowed her down. Shiripa recovered and kicked off the ground. Goku tried to kick her, but she After Imaged and kicked him down. Goku landed and slid to a halt. Shiripa was on him in an instant.

Her speed has increased so much. Goku thought.

"Solar Flair!" Shiripa recoiled and rubbed her eyes. Goku slid under her legs and swung at her neck. He gagged and coughed up blood. Shiripa's elbow was buried deep in Goku's stomach. His aura dispersed and as he collapsed. Shiripa licked her lips and kicked Goku away.

"I'm glad Dragon Slayer Magic includes advanced scenes, or that might have worked. Stone Dragon Rupture!!" She clapped her hands together as a massive seismic wave launched Goku through the Saihonai tree and back to the crater. Shiripa appeared above him and lands hard on his stomach.

"Fire Dragon Iro..." Shiripa grabbed Natsu by his neck as she blocked a punch from Gohan. She knocked their heads together and threw them away.

"Leave them out of this, this is our fight," Goku managed. Shiripa flexed her hand, causing a slab of rock to hit him again.

"Hakai," She sighed. Gohan tackled Natsu out of the way as the blast hurdled by and into space.

"I said, your, fighting, me!" Shiripa turned to see Goku getting onto his knees.

What the hell! Shiripa's mouth hung open in shock. "How are you able to stand?! You should be dry, if not being crippled by that form."

"Look behind you. That's why," Goku smiled. Natsu was standing nearby, with his arm held high, and his pointer finger and thumb outstretched in a salute.

"You got this Goku, this chump has nothing on you!" He called. The rest of the Fairy Tail guild raised their hands in support.

"These people, who haven't known me before this week, are putting their faith in me. I won't let them down, not today!" Goku said as his aura flared up. The massive amount of heat began to set the grass around him alight.

"SHUT UP!!" Shiripa screamed as she let loose with a barrage of ki blasts. Goku easily weaved through the storm and teleported behind her.

"I won't let them down!"
