Zukai lifted his hand towards the prince, a bright yellow light started to emit from his palm as a medium-sized sphere appeared out of thin air!
"What's this!!!!" Everyone from the stand to the announcer and even the King alongside his noble and elites were shocked at the sight of the light!
"T-T-That's IMPOSSIBLE!!" Vegeta shouted as he took a few steps back in fear. To him, it was seemingly unbelievable that Zukai could already possess the ability to produce a Ki blast at his age.
"Unbelievable it seems that Zukai is unleashing a Ki blast!" Said the announcer.
"I didn't know a child could perform Ki blasts at this age."
"He really is a prodigy."
"Damn it, just how high is this kid's Ki control!" King Vegeta said while standing up from his seat. Knowing a Ki blast requires a lot of Ki control he didn't think that Zukai could do one right now, especially at his age. Saiyans typically learn how to fire basic Ki blasts at the age of 5 but none are at the scale and power of this attack!
To start off with, Saiyans naturally don't train their Ki control very high because they are a warrior race that spends most of their time training up their physical bodies instead. This doesn't mean they don't practice their Ki control, they do but only in an offensive way to complement their strength. The Saiyans never bothered to learn how to use Ki in a defensive or a supportive manner because they always relied on their superior physique. This is why when Vegeta and Nappa came to earth they were misled by the scouters because the Z-Fighters can lower and raise their powers at will.
"Surrender now Vegeta." Zukai gave the prince one chance to give up.
"NO NO NO! I will not surrender to the likes of someone like you!" Vegeta exclaims knowing that he had to finish Zukai off before he fired that towards him. In a desperate final attempt, Vegeta mustered all the strength he had in his beaten body and sped towards Zukai.
'As expected he didn't surrender. The pride of a Saiyan is not something to scoff at.' Zukai seeing enough allowed the prince to get close enough to him. The prince used his last remaining strength into a single attack, and right when he got within 1 foot of his opponent, he thought he finally made contact.
"What the?!" Vegeta shouted as he saw with his own eyes that his fist landed on Zukai's face but he immediately noticed something was wrong when he didn't feel any surface at all, it was an afterimage! At that very moment, Vegeta felt a hand being placed on his lower back, following that a sharp pain invaded his body. Sensing immediate danger the prince looked at the very corners of his eye where he met with a bright flash of light.
*BANNNGGGGG!!* A loud sound echoed all throughout the stadium and soon after that black smoke filled the area where the two fighters were. After just a quick second a figure was seen flying out of the smoke, the figure hit and rolled on the ground a couple of times before finally stopping about 60 feet from the edge of the smoke. The figure was none other than the prince, he laid on the floor breathing heavily, at the back of his armor was a hole exposing his badly scratched up skin but no fatal damage.
The whole stadium was quiet as everyone stared at the defeated prince on the ground. Zukai started walking towards the gate while pasting the prince. As he was passing he looked down at the prince who was still conscious and breathing and mouthed the words, "You will thank me later." Saying nothing more Zukai continued off towards the gate.
Never wanting to kill Vegeta in this tournament he made sure to dial the attack back a lot so it wouldn't be able to kill him but leave him incapacitated so that victory was assured. He also wanted to give Vegeta a decent Zenkai boost.
"B-Bastard...." Vegeta was only allowed to say this as he reached his hand towards Zukai in anguish. Being only able to stare at the back of Zukai as he walked off, Vegeta felt powerless to do anything, closing his eyes he quickly blacked out falling unconscious.
Right after Vegeta fell unconscious the announcer then quickly began to talk and said, "We have a winner! ZUKAI!"
[CONGRATULATIONS! Host completed, *Battle of Prodigies!*]
[Gifting Starter Pack, Discount Card 50%, and 150,000 SP!]
The crowd all snapped back to reality after hearing the words of the announcer.
"What the hell! He actually won!"
"No way, this must have been a fluke!"
"I can't believe I lost all my money, my wife is gonna kill me!"
"Same here brother. Hey does anyone here want to take a really long space trip with me!"
"HAHAHA!! I betted on Zukai, I mean who could have passed up on such amazing odds."
Everyone from the crowd roared in excitement, anger, joy, and some even in fear. Zucchi was yelling her lungs, while the king was seen standing. Zukai after seeing this showed a big smile on his face after he heard the notification of the system, not caring about the words being yelled out from crowds Zukai walked to the gates. But by the time he was closing in on the gates they still hadn't opened. Seeing this it wasn't much of a surprise as he stopped in his tracks and looked at the King who was still standing in his booth.
Seeing Zukai's actions, King Vegeta looked down at Zukai with an unsatisfied look as he turned around and whispered something to one of the guards behind him. After that, the guard immediately left the booth with his hand on the scouter seemingly transmitting a message to the other guards in the area. The King then glanced at Zukai with a smug look as the gates were starting to be opened for him.
Not liking the feeling of the whole situation Zukai still continued out of the arena through the gate and into one of the many hallways. On his way, he was intercepted by an Elite Squad that stood in his way out.
"Zukai the King requests your presence at his castle immediately." The squad leader came to stop and inform him.
"Tell him I'm tired and I will be heading home, we can meet tomorrow." Zukai casually replied.
"I'm afraid that won't be happening, you will be coming with us even if it's by force." The squad leader threatened Zukai as he began to close the distance.
"Ah, so it came to this huh. Alright, take me to him." Zukai said while already walking towards the guard.
"It's good you know your place and here put these on and follow my lead. Try anything and we will not hesitate to use force." The leader handed him a pair of advanced metal handcuffs.
"Yea, yea whatever hurry up will you." Complying Zukai put the handcuffs on fully knowing that such devices would be useless against him as he could destroy them with ease.
"Why you! You better show me some respect brat if you know what's good for you." The leader pissed off at the way Zukai replied instructed him.
On their way there Zukai decided best that now seemed like a good time to check his rewards. Seeing the starter pack as one of his rewards he ordered the system to open it as he had nothing better to do.
'System open Starter Pack.'
[Opening Starter Pack 3..2..1]
[Congratulations!! Host has earned three rewards! Generating Content!]
[*Monkey King Affinity]
[*Magic Affinity]
[*Advance Zenkai]
'Oh wow, these seem really good!' Zukai continued, 'System, give me a description of the content rewards.'
[Monkey King Affinity: Host now has a deeper connection with the Saiyan's Oozaru form. Giving Host a better understanding and insight of Oozaru form as well as allowing Host to fully adapt to and control said form with ease. Finally, Host will have some passive lingering effects of the Oozaru form even when not transformed like improved perception and awareness abilities. as well as providing a small link to the Saiyan's ancestry.]
[Magic Affinity: Host can now acquire and perform magic abilities of all kinds. Understanding magic for Host will become like second nature and growth in other elemental affinities will be hastened upon use. After a while, acquired magic will be deeply ingrained in Host's memories.]
[Advance Zenkai: Just as it sounds it changes Host's Zenkai boost to happen during fights instead of near-death experiences. Host can now gain rapid growth in speed, power, and endurance the longer he fights against an opponent. The stronger the opponent the more effective the Zenkai boost will be.]
'Holy sh*t! These rewards are insane! Especially the Advance Zenkai' Zukai thought aloud as it would basically mean that he can challenge mightier beings and during that fight, he would be rapidly improving and he could eventually surpass them with enough time.
'The Monkey King and Magic Affinity from what the system said are pretty useful. The Monkey King Affinity in particular sounds like a set path for reaching SSJ4 with the small link tied to the Ancient Saiyan's Lineage.' He continued thinking as this can be a big help to him later on.
After going through all of the rewards, they all arrived at the palace where Zukai was then ushered into the throne room. Sitting with his usual demeanor was, of course, King Vegeta alongside his guards. Upon entering the King saw Zukai and his handcuffs he was wearing. The squad brought Zukai near the King and forcefully dropped him to his knees and held his head up by pulling his hair.
"That was a nice display of power there Zukai. You indeed made a fool of my son!" The King now switched his smug look to one full of displeasure.
"Haha, is this the way you always congratulate your winners because if so it's a very weird way to do so your highness." Snickering Zukai replied.
"Silent you freak! I had my suspicions before but now this confirms it. You are the fable Legendary Super Saiyan one that comes up once every thousand years! You are a ticking time bomb, one that needs to be dealt with accordingly for the safety of not only Planet Vegeta but for the universe as well!" The King now fully believing that this child in front of him is the Legendary Super Saiyan exclaim.
"Legendary Super Sandwich? Look I have no idea what you're talking about." Zukai playing dumb said.
"It doesn't matter if you know or not as your fate has already been decided!" Standing up and throwing his hand to the side the King continued, "You are to be exiled off this planet as your power is far too abnormal for an ordinary Saiyan!"
"Guards take him away!" The King declared loudly.
Just then a group of Saiyans barged into the room making quite a ruckus, a man out of the group stepped up angrily and spoke.
"King Vegeta! What is the meaning of this! Why is my son being treated like THIS?!"
