Dragon Saga

By the time the discussion ended the party had already ended and the place was empty with only the people at the main table remaining.

At the moment Ethan and Yamcha were standing facing each other in the open landscape.

"Is he going to be fine?"

Master Roshi asked Alex who got surprised by the abrupt arrival of this old hermit with sun-glasses beside him.

Looking around he noticed Tien and Chiaotzu also joined them to spectate the fight from the sidelines.

"We were trapped in a space-time crack for all these years and at the moment we don't even remember what happened to us in that place. So I don't know whether he's good or not, anyways, it's better that he gets bashed twice a day to lessen the troubles."

"Thank you for your kind consideration Alex. But I would rather have food only once a day rather eat punch for lunch and kicks for supper."

After the short exchange, Ethan focused on his body as he felt several changes and the unimaginable boost of strength.

Alex had noticed these changes in his body, not just strength but he felt his reflexes, speed and many more aspects of his body just had a huge upgrade. Arriving in this world both of them were still struggling to adapt and accept the changes they were experiencing but at the same time got surprised by the differences in their physical abilities.

Alex was thinking of trying out the limits of Saiyan's body the moment he noticed the tail and their situation when he first met Goku but he held himself back. At this moment it was the best chance to witness the real changes and to what extent had they really changed.

Alex and Ethan got chased around by delinquents and got beat up by the local ruffians multiple times because of Ethan. Even in those times of crisis, the two enjoyed their childhood playing tricks on each other and sometimes they played pranks on their pursuers and enjoyed anime and manga which included Dragon Ball series that Alex collected to pass the time while hiding around the places.

So at the moment, the duo had the most knowledge about Saiyan history and their future potential.

In time Krillin, Bulma, Puar, Oolong, Chi-Chi, and Goku also joined with the others to spectate the battle.

"Go get beat up already, damn Shithan!"

"You're next puke-jet. Just dig a hole around that tree so it would be easy for me to clean up after I'm done with you."

After replying to Alex, Ethan clenched his fist and ran towards Yamcha.

Yamcha just stood there looking at the teenager Saiyan, he thought if he should just knock the guy out and be done with as the gap in strength was large.

All the fighter could feel the energy that the duo emitted was the weakest among them but they still believed they might get surprised during the fight thinking about their past experience with Goku.

When Ethan finally reach Yamcha and tried to punch the guy in the stomach, his fist was easily caught.

Before Ethan reacted he was flipped over by Yamcha's simple movements and tossed back to the place from where he ran over.

At this moment Yamcha was just testing how much physical damage the kid could endure but to his surprise, Ethan touched his hand on the ground while doing a backflip he stopped and jumped back landing a punch on Yamcha's face.

Yamcha just felt a slight quiver on his face without any pain and as he didn't respond to his counter Ethan went into a frenzied state while raining punches and finally got a response when his kick was about to land around Yamcha's crotch area and flew a few meters before falling to the ground.

Yamcha who subconsciously punched Ethan near his ribs looked towards the person lying on the ground convulsing from time to time.

"That might hurt for a long time. Yamcha can't you hold back a little with the kid."

"Hey it's not my fault he was so weak, I tried to hold back as much as I could."

Yamcha replied to Krillin and tried to move towards Ethan to check the damage when he felt a slight shiver down his spine and stopped. Master Roshi frowned a little as he saw Ethan move little by little as he got up and looked towards Yamcha with an excited expression.

"Is this the true nature of the Saiyans?"

Master Roshi asked himself turning to look towards Alex who still had a calm expression while looking at the exchange in front of him with a clenched fist.

At the moment Ethan was moving subconsciously. Before when he tried to punch and kick Yamcha his Saiyan instincts started to take over as he was having this urge to keep fighting as much as he could for the first time.

Yamcha's punch was the spark that led Ethan to drown in his Saiyan instincts to keep fighting until his excitement is satisfied and face this strong opponent.

Ethan kept attacking while Yamcha defended and evaded but in time he had to counter and defend more and more as the attacks got fiercer.

Everyone watched with surprise and shock in their eyes as Ethan got punched around time and again but still got up and attacked with more power than before.

"Is he learning as he fights and getting stronger at the same time?"

Krillin was the first to break the silence while everyone was tongue-tied by the duel in front of them.

"No, he already held the strength but maybe because of not using it for a long time he forgot how to use it. In this fight with Yamcha, his instinct as Saiyan not only gave back his control over that strength but he is also trying to copy his opponent to better utilize that strength."

Master Roshi cleared the doubts others were having and understood the Saiyan instinct that Alex talked about.

At the moment Yamcha was having a hard time holding back against his opponent as he moved around and defended most of the time which led Ethan to attack more fiercely.

Alex looked at his friend then looked down at his hands which started shaking slightly in excitement as he watched the two fight each other. He understood that Saiyan's true nature was much wilder than they had thought and could turn destructive if their emotions went out of control.

Ethan panted while he fought with bruises all over his body while blood slid down from the injuries on his forehead and dripped down on the ground from his chin.

His clothes were torn in multiple places and blood spilled around as he fought but his eyes shined with excitement with every blow.

After about an hour later, Yamcha started to get tired as he fought while controlling his strength all this time and wanted to finish this duel by now. He moved close and punched in the solar plexes to drain Ethan of all his energy and kicked the guy in the face to knock him out with a final attack.

Ethan couldn't avoid the punch but grabbed the kick looking furiously towards Yamcha and the next moment Yamcha was being thrashed around by a flurry of punches and kicks.

Alex rubbed the side of his head in vexation with the turn of events. He was annoyed by the stupid Ethan who was furious about his face being targeted and getting anxious because of the waves of excitement he was constantly feeling.

At the moment Yamcha was repeatedly punched and kicked in several places, even though the strength wasn't enough to injure him critically, the damage was still piling up little by little and he couldn't even retaliate because Ethan's speed had far surpassed his own.

"Goku, please stop that idiot. Things might get out of hands if we let this continue, it's all meaningless with Ethan fighting completely in rage and forgets everything when he wakes up."

"Alright, I'll stop him but you'll have to spar with me next. Looking at their duel made me all hyped up."

Alex felt something urging him to accept Goku's offer to spar right at this moment but he suppressed the feeling and looked towards the evening sky as he replied,

"It's better if we have our little match tomorrow when the sun is up, It will be dark soon and I don't know if we have a full moon tonight or not."

Listening to what Alex said, everyone panicked while Yamcha felt cold sweat running down his back and looked towards Ethan who was on the verge of fainting but still tried to land a punch then they looked towards the sky which was still bright enough to hide the moon and released a breath of relief.

Goku nodded reluctantly while moving between Ethan and Yamcha as he grabbed Ethan's fist to stop him from punching Yamcha.

Ethan regained some clarity because of the sudden change in the situation but collapsed the next moment due to exhaustion.

"Thank you Goku, I might have gotten a few of my bones broken trying to get that crazy kid in control."

"I'm sorry to end your wedding in such a way Goku."

"It's alright Alex, I enjoyed spectating the duel and understood a little about the Saiyan instinct to battle that you spoke about."

Alex was silent but he clearly understood Saiyan's instinct to fight wasn't just simple excitement as a warrior race, it influenced their emotions and drove them away from rationality if not kept under control.
