TO EACH THEIR OWN ANSWER
ULTRA EGO FALLS, ULTRA INSTINCT RISES
Caulifla: Damage is nothing but fuel for me to keep me in this battle! Which, for you, presents quite a dilemma. What now, ugly? Would you like to make me even stronger?!
Gas roared in anger, charged forward, and punched Caulifla in the chest. Caulifla gasped as Gas punted her high in the air and kicked her down to the ground.
Gas: The answer is simple. I kill you in one blow and be done with it!
Y/N: CAULIFLA, NO-
Gas: GAH!
Gas gasped in pain and I gasped in shock as Caulifla stood up instantly and drove her fist right into Gas' stomach
Caulifla: That felt good, can I have another?!
Y/N: W-wow...
Gas: YOU VERMIN!
Gas kicks Caulifla back before using Instant Transmission to teleport Caulifla high in the air before dropping her and performing a bicycle kick. Caulifla flew back, about to crash into a rock, but Gas teleported her again, right into two more kicks
Y/N: HE CAN USE INSTANT TRANSMISSION ON OTHERS?!
Caulifla took another hit from Gas, sliding against the ground
Y/N: ENOUGH-
Caulifla: NO, Y/N! DON'T!
Caulifla panted heavily, blood continue to pour down her face
Caulifla: *panting* Yes... with every hit this bastard lands... My Ultra Ego continues to evolve!
Caulifla turned to look at me.
Caulifla: I continue to evolve, but what about your Ultra Instinct? I'm not as experienced in battle as you, Y/N, but it doesn't look a damn bit different!
Y/N: Huh?!
Caulifla: Figure it out fast! UNTIL THEN, GAS IS MINE!
Caulifla rushed forward, attacking Gas. I jump up onto a small hill
Y/N: My own Ultra Instinct, huh?
I power down from Ultra Instinct and put my hands together, attempting to focus
Gas: CEASE THIS POINTLESS STRUGGLE!
Gas smacked Caulifla back to the ground
Gas: ENOUGH OF YOUR DERANGED TECHNIQUE!
Caulifla: Deranged? That's the first time someone has called me that one. But no... it's not enough, not yet
Caulifla stumbled to her feet, her legs barely supporting her
Macki: Yeesh! She's like some sorta zombie!
Oil: TAKE HER DOWN QUICK, GAS!
Caulifla gave Gas another "bring it" hand gesture, which Gas responded to with a powerful punch to Caulifla's ribs. Caulifla flew back, landing on her neck before falling on her face. Her abdomen ached worse than any pain she's ever felt in her life, there was clearly something wrong that Oatmeel refused to tell her.
Gas: You won't be standing again.
Caulifla panted profusely, but she opened her eye, shocking Gas
Caulifla: I... I told Granolah before... I'll tell you now... I AM NO LONGER BOUND... BY LIMITS!
Gas backed up in shock, bracing himself for impact, but Caulifla stopped mere inches from Gas. Caulifla's eyes fell as she powered down from Ultra Ego, collapsing on the ground
Gas: *laughs* I guess she burned herself out. A technique that damages the user... How stupid
Gas summoned a sword, preparing to strike Caulifla down
Gas: A stupid end befitting of a Saiyan
Caulifla coughed up some blood
Caulifla: *coughs* Fuck... You...
Gas gritted his teeth, preparing to bring the sword down on Caulifla, but I reach out, creating a barrier around Caulifla, saving her from the staff. Gas looks over at me.
Gas: Is this your doing?
I lift up Caulifla using telekinesis and place her in my own barrier.
Gas: Do you plan to hide behind a shield forever?
I remove the barrier, taking a deep breath.
Y/N: Yup, this was my only option, might at well try it.
Gas: Despite your impending death, you remain carefree.
Y/N: I guess so. Guess I got that from my father.
I jump down to Gas' level, powering up
Gas: Another form? Silver hair this time? Or Blue?
Y/N: Neither. See, I figured out the best transformation to make use of my power!
I power up to Autonomous Ultra Instinct
Gas: I thought silver hair indicated maximum strength. Why not use that?
Y/N: For that Ultra Instinct to work, I need to be calm and tranquil. But in this form, I can put my emotions to work for me! And believe me... My heart is not calm now.
I look Gas in the eye and smirk, which seemingly shocked Gas as if I reminded him of something
Gas: STOP THAT! THAT LOOK... NO... DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!
Gas charges at me at full speed. Both of us collided with punches to the face. The ground beneath our feet explodes. Gas goes flying back as I charge forward.
Gas: Gahhh!!
I attempt to punch him again, but he dodges out of the way.
Y/N: FINAL...
Gas' eyes widened as he recognized my technique
Gas: No...
Y/N: SPIRIT...
Gas: NO, NO, NO...
I kick Gas up high in the air
Y/N: CANNON!!!
My blast connected with Gas, but it didn't knock him out
Gas: T-that damned technique?! H-how?! What is happening?!
Y/N: Seems like I cracked the code! I'm just barely stronger than you now, but I don't have long! It's time for me to make the donuts!
I fly forward, engaging in an exchange of powerful back-and-forth blows with Gas.
Gas: C-CURSE YOU!
Caulifla weakly looks up, looking on
Caulifla: T-this is Ultra Instinct... Y-you've gotta be joking...
Gas: I SACRIFICED MY PRIDE TO BECOME THE STRONGEST IN THE UNIVERSE! BEHOLD!
Gas summoned an entire arsenal of weapons, throwing each of them at me.
Gas: A CRETIN LIKE YOU COULD NEVER HOPE TO SURPASS ME!
Thanks to Ultra Instinct, I dip and dodge between every incoming weapon, grabbing the chain of a massive wrecking ball and throwing it down at Gas
Y/N: TAKE THIS!!
Gas catches the wrecking ball, all according to my plan
Gas: A WEAPON... OF MY OWN CREATION... COULD NEVER BRING ME DOWN- AHH!!
I charge right in, kicking Gas right in the stomach while he tried to hold up the wrecking ball
Macki: GAS!
Gas goes flying back, crashing into the ground with a small explosion. Elec flies over and lands near Gas
Elec: Hey. Gas. What do you think you're doing?!
Gas: E-elec...
Elec grabs Gas by his neck
Elec: WHY DID I MAKE YOU INTO THE STRONGEST IN THE UNIVERSE?!
Gas: T-to elevate the Heeters... To the universe's greatest organization...
Elec: CORRECT. AND WHAT IS NEEDED TO ACHIEVE THAT?
Gas: M-must kill the Saiyan- GAH!
Elec smacked Gas in the face
Elec: WRONG! YOU HAVE TO KILL FRIEZA! STAMPING OUT THE SAIYANS WAS ONLY A STEPPING STONE ALONG THE WAY! SO FIND THE RESOLVE TO DIE IN BATTLE IF YOU HAVE TO! THE POWER I GAVE YOU HAS TO BE WORTH MORE THAN THIS PATHETIC SHOWING!
Macki: Elec... C'mon... That's a little too harsh.
Y/N: HEY! How about instead of sending Gas to fight your battles, how about you man up and fight me yourself? Gas can fight us next time, I'm up for it.
Elec: SHUT UP, SAIYAN! THERE WON'T BE A NEXT TIME FOR GAS!
Y/N: What..?
A massive explosion of power erupted behind Elec. Gas stood up, his body had changed even more
Y/N: W-WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS FACE?!
Elec: I think you see what I mean.
