As the sonic boom bombarded Black's ears, he approached one of the Jaegers.
He would need strength. Lots of strength.
Applying Buffs, arming himself to the teeth, Black grabbed one of the Jaeger's intact arms and pulled it out. "Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
With a screeching metallic noise, the arm weighing several hundred tons came ripping off.
Adjusting his Agility using Deoxys' Agility Forme, Black took to the sky, wind blasting his face. With his Advance Flying Ability reaching closer to 90%, and the buffs on his Agility, his one-way speed wasn't anywhere less than Selene's right now.
On the earth, the Mega-Kaiju sensed Selene closing up. It was literally standing at the mouth of the volcano. With its many eyes, it looked behind and let out a mad growl.
Selene didn't give it much time, though.
Time Shift and Space Lock activated simultaneously as she coiled herself around its tails and legs, pulling it back.
ROARRRRRRRR!!!
The Mega-Kaiju roared as if both Skills could barely affect it.
-Fat motherfucker!- The Life Devourer hissed, baring its fangs. -Master! Hurry!-
Over the clouds, rising higher and higher, Black almost stood in space. He did not need oxygen anyway.
But regardless of putting the Jaeger's arm in front of him, the moment he struck the beast, he would disintegrate on the spot. Even Biokinesis wouldn't be able to save him.
So, as the soundless space pushed him down, Black made a final change, equipping Deoxys' Normal Forme.
…
Normal Forme:
— Strength +2
— Agility +2
— Stamina +2
— Perception +7
Skill: Recover
Effect:
— Deoxys' Crystal becomes the Contestant's true body
— Any fleshly damage heals instantly
— Consumption: 10 MP/kg of body mass
WARNING:
— Destruction of Crystal means instant death
…
Heat boiled Black as his skin charred.
Blood Flames oozed from his mouth, coating him under a skin of Master Selfless Breathing's Reiatsu, turning him into the Demon King he was.
Master Telekinesis pulled the Deoxys' Crystal out of his body and kept it hundreds of meters away from his body.
Everything seemed to disappear from Black's gaze, replaced by the redness of the heat.
"THIS…" Black hissed to himself. "… WON'T BE ENOUGH!"
He still lacked mass. Otherwise, if he failed to bring the beast to the point of death, then it would all go in vain.
Just as Black reached half the distance, Selene was going beyond her limit to pull back the beast as it hammered the serpent into the mountain like a toy.
Then, Black equipped the Sling Ring.
An enormous golden ring appeared right in front of the Jaeger's arm before it disappeared into it.
The size of the arm itself was so big that the Sling Ring's Proficiency instantly fell to 0. Given its grade, it wasn't crafted to transfer such mass over such a long distance.
The next time it appeared, it was where Black had begun his fall.
Sonic booms split the skies of the Pacific Rim timeline.
Like a meteor, leaving behind a burning red trail, Jaeger's arm and Black struck the enormous beast right in the middle, Selene bursting into a mass of mist.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The shockwave shook the entire city, going beyond. Half the mountain exploded into a mass of whiteness.
The Mega-Kaiju burst apart into pieces of flash, black and blue blood raining down the leftover mountain.
At the top of the volcano's mouth, a crystal hovered, bobbing up and down.
Suddenly, light particles shimmered around it as Deoxys-Black regained his form.
Blinking out of existence, Black reappeared at the foot of the mountain. There, the top half of the Mega-Kaiju was growling on the brink of death as he had intended.
It was a massive creature, Black observed. Yet, strangely beautiful.
For it to be still alive, he was lucky to push it to this limit.
The moment it sensed Black standing in front of it, the Mega-Kaiju lifted its head and roared, bursts of ripples originating from its mouth.
Black approached it silently, his steps barely landing on snow.
Then, he touched it.
It happened then.
The sky fell on Black. The earth devoured him. The mountain shackled his existence. The very air drowned him.
[Step away from it… Outer One!]
The Timeline was here.
Mega-Kaiju was truly on the brink of death, but it wouldn't die for several minutes yet. Meanwhile, it could attempt the extinction-level event once more.
The Timeline wouldn't let anyone have it.
Black knew it as well; so, he smiled.
"On my authority of Nyarlathotep," Black said, bringing out the mysteries within, black mass rippling around him like a cloak, "I urge you to applaud for me… Oh, Timeline!"
Timeline Applaud was not a Growth type Skill.
Like in the case of Orochimaru, it would have never worked against Mega-Kaiju as Black, for all purposes, wanted to kill it, going against the Pacific Rim Timeline itself.
However, unlike before, there were two things different in this case.
Mega-Kaiju was dying and it had no further purpose as per the main storyline. That the Timeline wanted it to begin Karmic Dissolution, starting things over, was purely Timeline's Will.
Second, Black was an Outer One — Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos!
Time paused.
As the Pacific Rim Timeline came to obliterate Black, a train's whistle entered the ears.
Soon, the train's image materialized in the distance, getting clearer as it approached.
It was the Hogwarts Express!
As the train came to a stop behind Black, from one of the compartments, an old witch stepped out. The Trolley Witch!
Slowly, SHE stepped next to Black, looked at him with HER ancient gaze, and smiled.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
[Humph] The Pacific Rim Timeline snorted.
And then both the Timelines melted away, the Hogwarts Express disappearing as well.
Time regained its momentum and then, slowly but surely, Black's hand landed on the Mega-Kaiju's flesh.
"Blood… Devour!"
Roarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
The Mega-Kaiju growled as primal fear seeped into its bones.
Black absorbed the fear, his chest splitting apart. Billions of thin tendrils lashed out, elongating in a fraction of a fraction of second. They latched themselves on the Mega-Kaiju, pulling it in.
Thousands of tons of mass disintegrated instantly, becoming Blood Essence.
…
[Replacing Golduck Permanent Blood Essence…]
…
Space rippled around Black.
The snow in the surroundings burst apart in steam.
Black tried to control his body using Biokinesis but utterly failed.
Red and black carapace jutted out as his body gained size. His face twisted, fangs replacing his teeth. Thin fissures ran over his body like blue and red rivers. A massive, spear-headed tail manifested behind him and sharp spikes protruded out of his spine.
On his head, four tiny horns rose, crowning him like a king.
By the time the transformation ended, the Kaiju-Black had grown over 15 ft tall, and this was when he was controlling himself using Biokinesis.
What he couldn't control anymore was the supreme urge bubbling inside his heart.
He lifted his head, made fists, planted his legs into the earth, and roared… volcano erupting out behind him along with his wrath.
ROARRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
