Against The Gods With An Anime System

Walking into the dark cave for some distance, Mesa finally heard the sound that he was waiting for.

'GODDAMMIT!!!! There goes my f.u.c.k.i.n.g plan to carpet bomb the second part of the trial with Tsar Bomba's. AAAAHHH!!! F.u.c.k this!! Time for a plan B.' Thought Mesa to after his initial plan for the second part of the Dragon God Trial was no longer an option.

['JARVIS, what is that 'mysterious object' that is part of the rewards?']

[ "I am sorry sir, but I am unable to know what it is. I have tried to analyze it, but every time I do I get the answer that it is a mysterious object. Though there is a message attached to it.

It says:

"Good luck with the Azure Dragon God Trial.

Sincerely

One Above All "]

'Huh… must be that surprise that Ophis told me about that the One Above All had in store in for me. Well anyway, no use thinking about it. if I want to see what it is, I'll have to earn it.' Thought Mesa to himself.

['JARVIS, I want you to buy the jutsu's Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame, Fire Style: Majestic Demolisher Flame, Water Style: Water Severing Wave and lastly, I want you to buy 10,000 Senzu beans.']

["Very well. The jutsu's Phoenix Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame, Phoenix Fire Style: Majestic Demolisher Flame and Water Style: Water Severing Wave will come out at a total of 75,000 system credits. And the total amount for the Senzu beans comes out at 1000 system credits per 10 senzu beans will be 1,000,000 system credits for a total price of 1,075,000 system credits."]

'No need to be stingy, I am going to complete that trial as fast as possible, so I am going to need a hell of a lot of Senzu beans to keep me going.' Thought Mesa to himself as he felt the jutsu's flow into his head. As he was walking though the cave, suddenly above him in the dark an ancient sounding voice speaks out.

"Ahh… So you must be that Dragon that I sensed earlier. Ohh… What's this? The fire of the Phoenix…. What a peculiar case you are to have the blood of the Phoenix within you as a Dragon."

Stopping in his tracks, Mesa looks up and in the dark these two huge and long azure colored eyes open up.

"So, you must be the Dragon God those two Flood Dragons outside were so desperately protecting." Said Mesa as he looked up at the two azure eyes above him.

"Correct. But I am but a mere wisp of a residual soul left behind her by the Primordial Azure Dragon that watches over this trial ground. And you are truly a peculiar creature. You look completely human and yet I can sense that you are a dragon and have the blood the Phoenix. Would you care to elaborate on that?"

"I am sure you have like a ton of questions, but how about you save them until the end of the Trial. Then I will answer every question you have." Said Mesa.

"Very well then. But before you take on the Azure Dragon God Trial, I must warn you. Once the trial starts, you cannot quit halfway through. You either succeed this trial or you die trying, there is no other way. This Trial has been visited in the past by 129 challengers in the past and all of them have failed and ended up as dried skeletons inside the Trial. So I ask you again, are you sure you want to take on the Azure Dragon God Trial?" Asked the Azure Dragon in a most serious tone.

"Yes, I am sure!" Said Mesa.

"Very well then, then I wish you all the luck in the world during the upcoming trials. If you are able to pass the trial, then I can give you three drops of the Azure Dragon God's blood and let you possess the bloodline of the Primordial Azure Dragon. But be warned. This trial is not like the Phoenix's trial and so you should not gauge its difficulty accordingly. The Phoenix's nature is benevolent and conservative. Even if the trial it left behind is tough, it would not be difficult to the extent of driving one into despair, and it is even more unlikely to be fatal. But the Dragon God being the sovereign of all beasts, looks down upon the world with pride. The Dragon God's bloodline, will never be granted to any ordinary person. Only a supreme being who possesses enough talent and willpower to become the ruler of heaven and earth, can be qualified to bear the Dragon God's bloodline!" Thundered the majestic voice of the Primordial Azure Dragon across the dark cave.

"I completely agree! And that is why I believe that I am the perfect vessel for you to pass on your legacy to. But like you said, I must prove that I am worthy of the Dragon God's bloodline. So how about we start this trial and I can show you just how worthy I am!" Said Mesa confidently.

"I like your confidence and determination challenger! Though confidence and determination is good, it can only take you so far. You must show me that your willpower and talent to become the ruler of heaven and earth is worthy enough for the Dragon God's bloodline. If you are ready step through this trial ground gate and show me your strength!" Said the Primordial Azure Dragon as a blue colored teleportation formation appeared in front of Mesa. Just as Mesa wanted to take a step forward he heard a voice in his head.

["Sir, be advised. Once you step through this teleportation formation, the clock on the quest will officially start and won't stop until you have either successfully completed it or you have died. As an extra precaution, the One Above All has made sure that you cannot use the Kamui pocket dimension to escape the trial and you cannot use the Flying Raijin jutsu to escape it either. Though the use of Kamui to make yourself intangible or to warp other objects away is still available and the use of the Flying Raijin jutsu inside the trial grounds is not prohibited."]

'I figured as much. Using the Flying Raijin jutsu or Kamui's pocket dimension would be totally cheating. I guess the One Above All doesn't want me to use those cheats during this trial.' Thought Mesa to himself as he stepped through the teleportation formation and disappeared.

"Such an enigma that boy is. I am sure that he is the one who has that Dragon soul inside him whose power even surpasses mine. I sure hope you pass this trial for I have many questions for you to answer." Said the Primordial Azure Dragon as it disappeared.

Once the light of the teleportation faded, Mesa found himself in a barren wasteland with ankle high grass as far as the eye could see. In the distance, mountains whose peaks pierced the sky were visible that encircled him, completely enclosing him here. In the corner of his eye, Mesa could see a clock that was ticking down.

Days: - Time: 00:00:01

Days: - Time: 00:00:02

Days: - Time: 00:00:03

Before long, the voice of the Primordial Azure Dragon sounded from above. Looking up, Mesa could see an enormous Chinese azure colored dragon that was as huge as country in the sky. "Welcome to the Dragon God's trial grounds, challenger. In this trial, there will be a total of three stages. Where you are now, is where the first stage will be held. In front of you, is the only entrance to where the second stage will be held. Defeat all the Stone Dragon Warriors in this place, and the entrance will naturally open… I wish you the best of luck."

As his voice faded, two lights appeared in front of Mesa and two figures appeared before him. Their level of strength was at level 4 Sky Profound Realm, same as his. Their bodies were no different from an average person, but they seemed to be carved from stone and were draconian in appearance. Their heads looked half-human, and half-dragon. They were holding onto a stone spear on one hand and a stone shield on the other, as they locked on to Mesa and came forward, ready to attack.

Before they were even within 10 feet of Mesa, he swung out both of his arms and used the String-String Fruit's power to cut the two Stone Dragon Warriors to pieces. After that he heard a voice in his head.

["Stage 1 complete. Time of completion: Days: - Time: 00:00:06 "]

Just as these two Stone Dragons were defeated, their remains disappeared and four more lights appeared. And out of these lights, four Stone Dragon Warriors appear. Immediately they charge towards Mesa, who just waits until they get within ten feet of him and swings out his arms again, defeating the four Stone Dragon Warriors instantly.

["Stage 2 complete. Time of completion: Days: - Time: 00:00:10 "]

And as these remains disappear, eight lights appear and eight more identical Stone Dragon Warriors appear. But this time they surrounded Mesa and charged at him. Staying calm, Mesa goes through all the hand seals, claps his hands together.

WATER STYLE: WATER SEVERING WAVE

Suddenly Mesa expels a stream of highly pressurized water out of his mouth. Spinning around, Mesa cuts through all of the eight Stone Dragon Warriors that charged at him.

["Stage 3 complete. Time of completion: Days: - Time: 00:00:25 "]

After that, 16 lights appeared and 16 Stone Dragon Warriors appeared and surrounded him. Taking out the Yamato, Mesa started running from the Stone Dragon Warriors and caroling them together. When they were all together, Mesa placed his right hand on the Yamato's handle and put in as much power as he could before using the Judgement Cut to encompass all the Stone Dragon Warriors inside its sphere of attack, cutting them all to pieces. After that was done he took out a Senzu bean and ate it, restoring his strength back to normal.

["Stage 4 complete. Time of completion: Days: - Time: 00:01:11 "]

After that, 32 lights appeared and 32 Stone Dragon Warriors appeared and surrounded him. This time though, the Stone Dragon Warriors did not all have the standard shield and spear. Some of them had swords with them. Caroling them together again, Mesa summoned 2 shadow clones. And all three of them activated Sage Mode.

Inside the Sky Poison Pearl.

Three Mesa clones, that were in Sage Mode disappeared. Another Mesa clone, who was a Wood clone and in constant communication with the real Mesa, was inside saw this happen and summoned three more Shadow clones who went into Sage Mode and went on standby mode.

Back at the Trial.

All three Mesa's went into Sage Mode and used the same jutsu at the same time.

Sage Art: Winds Style: RasenShuriken

Throwing all three RasenShurikens at the 32 Stone Dragon Warriors, three explosions occurred that pulverized all 32 Stone Dragon Warriors and the other two Mesa clones dispersed.

["Stage 5 complete. Time of completion: Days: - Time: 00:04:25 "]

And so 64 lights appeared and 64 Stone Dragon Warriors appeared out of these lights. Instead of getting worried or frustrated, Mesa was just smiling with anticipation and readied his next move to clear this stage.
