The Quiet Forest, huh...?
Thanks, Doc. I think I'll be able to find it from here.

Ashura glances back towards the direction the battle took place.

...Hopefully, things around here will get better.

Ashura waves goodbye before heading out of the lab and into the direction of the Quiet Forest.

---

A certain hedgehog mulls over his conversation with Mario, keeping in mind the list of people the plumber has mentioned who were there during the Koopaling invasion.

...Now, then. Who to talk to first...?
No matter who you choose, it will only serve as a waste of time.

Shadow defensively turns to the figure, but they only stand firm.

...I will save us both the trouble and tell you right away that I am not here to fight.



While not completely dropping his guard, Shadow lowers his fists.

...What do you want?
Two things, really; To keep you from wasting time on your hunt for Koopenstein... And to prevent RedBomber from wasting HIS time using characters that would ultimately serve no purpose in that regard.

While Shadow has no idea who RedBomber even is, he puts that aside to focus on the former.

And what, exactly, do you know of Koopenstein's whereabouts?
His whereabouts? None at all. But I do know where Somari is... as well as where he's going right now.
In fact... It would appear that you are wrong in thinking that he isn't keen on finding Koopenstein. You'll find well enough that, if my vision was correct, he'll be on the search for him as we speak.
...Is that so...? ...Hmph. I guess he knows better, after all... Unlike a certain blue hedgehog.
And that would be another thing; But whatever you may think about Sonic, that isn't any of my business. Now, hold still for a moment...

Psi approaches Shadow, who once more goes into a defensive stance. Psi's eyes then glow purple as he places a hand on Shadow's forehead, causing Shadow's eyes to glow the same color. In Shadow's vision, mental images of a location reveal themselves. This goes on for a minute until both Psi and Shadow's eyes stop glowing, Shadow's vision returning to normal.

...Even if you speed things along using Chaos Control, there will be no way you will get there before Somari and the others, or even at the same time as them. However, you should get there in time to learn what they will learn.
And if you're able to see into the future... What is there to stop you from telling me where Koopenstein is instead of relying on Somari to find out for me?
...
...The issue regarding seeing the future, especially in a world like the Chaos Zone... Is that it's not just ONE future that I can look into. The further down the timeline I go... The more it branches out into different possibilities.
...Back when the Mario Brothers were fighting Bowser... I have even seen several futures where they fell by the Koopa King's claws. For that reason, I cannot possibly tell you for certain where Koopenstien is.
Then why should I trust that what you told me was for certain, too?
Simple.
Because I have already foreseen that no matter what you do from here, what I told you is the ONLY lead you'll ever get.
...Fine.

Shadow heads off in the direction Psi has planted into his mind.

"Not evil"? Clearly, you don't know who you're talking to.
Those two are known as Saiyans. A warrior race, they live under the rule of Frieza... Or at least, the ones that survived. Apparently, their planet was wiped out by a meteor, and only so few are left.
They conquer planets in Frieza's name to be sold off to others. I don't quite think they're in any position to do that to ours, though, so they're not necessarily a threat... Yet.
...So, yeah. The big guy? He's definitely evil. He's just not very bright.

Ninja Man Psi looks over to Vegeta.

That guy, on the other hand? I'd avoid him like the plague if I were you; He is DEFINATELY not a kind soul.



Ninja Psi whispers as to not let Vegeta and Nappa overhear.

I've been watching Dragon Ball Z in my downtime. Haven't quite gotten to the end of Namek just yet, but I liked what I saw so far.

Meanwhile, Reggae and Nitron P dusts themselves off.

Well, that was something.

Reggae proceeds to pull out a spare beak of his.

Well, I'm off to fulfill a gag. I know he's dead and all, but I'm not about to waste good wordplay like that.

Reggae leaves the scene.

---

Well, here are the results:

(Note: I removed the damage from the Proto Busters and the Big Bang Strike from Quint's score since it would be unfair to the other players. I might, however, include the Proto Buster for EXP... probably not the Big Bang Strike, though.)

QuintAnother - 953
Beta Shadow - 672
Radiated Wraith - 627
Red Mage - 256
ch4s3man - 221
glacier - 161
Master Alicia - 92

QuintAnother seems to have scored himself another win. Congrats!

...That being said... Given the recent performance in the past few raid bosses- both for the bosses themselves and the participants- I'm starting to feel like, at least for some of you, there may be a level of burn-out occurring, or at least beginning to rear its head.

As such, I'd like to propose a small month-long break for Take the Crown throughout June, to give ourselves a moment of rest so that, hopefully, there could be more activity for the next raid boss.

I should state for the record, though, that the decision isn't quite final; If anyone has any objections to this decision, they may feel free to speak up about it. But until then, expect the next raid boss to arrive in July, rather than the upcoming June.

(Cont. from Page 114, Post #10 )



Xi Warrior is still charging towards the Hydrone, albeit more dramatically than we last saw him.

...And then, he just suddenly... Stops.

...?

Noticing this, Upsilon stops trying to look for Scareton.

Hey, what's making you stop all of a sudden?
...I... Huh.
I'm not feeling too great right now.

Suddenly, Xi just... Disappears*, surprising Upsilon.

...
...Nope. I'm definitely out of here.

With Xi having disappeared so suddenly, Upsilon just decides to bail. Noticing this, Pi Android, without a word, follows him.

---

*Note: As implied in Chaos Zone: Part II, Page 274, Post #3, Xi Warrior is (unless Tedd states otherwise) technically one of Tedd's summons, and as such is susceptible to Icos' spell (or whatever exactly it is they did).

As Kirby? seems to pull the Cutter ability from out of nowhere, throwing blades at the Mega Titan, Beta Devil laughs.

Oh, please. Did you HONESTLY believe that you were unbeatable, just because you had one of THOSE techniques? Pitiful.
Frankly, I don't know how you even managed it. Such techniques are SUPPOSED to be known by top-rated fighters... Ones who KNOW that you aren't the strongest, JUST because you can use such a technique.

Beta Devil sets his cloak aside, preparing to finish things.

I, myself, am well adverse in the technique of Berserk Instinct... But I don't even NEED it to destroy a simple-minded fool like yourself.
...But, I'm in a bit of a good mood today. And besides... I know better than to hold back against one of RSB's characters.

Beta Devil then flashes a wicked grin.

...So, be grateful. You're about to experience a death far more than you deserve... As I showcase to you fully just how OUTCLASSED your "Berserk Ego" TRULY is!

Suddenly, Beta Devil flies into the air (almost as if he doesn't want to power up so close to a certain someone...) as his power skyrockets... Until he eventually transforms into his Ikari state, before putting his hands together to charge an attack.

Bare witness to what power TRULY looks like, for it will be the last thing you'll ever see, before being met with OBLIVION!

Then, as the Divine Feet lands, so, too, does Bevil's Chaotic Kamemehameha collide with the Mega Titan, with every intent to eradicate him.

---

As Missingno. takes out Buried Alive's Muk, the room grows dark.

Had enough, creep?
Not quite. I still have but one Pokemon remaining... So, tell me, Missing Number...
...Do you feel that white hand on your shoulder...?

Missingno. is confused, until he suddenly spots a ghostly hand lurking on his shoulder! Surprised, but not completely disturbed, he swats the hand off his shoulder as it suddenly grows into a MUCH bigger size!

So, this is what I'm dealing with now... Fine, then.

As Missingno. prepares to fight against the White Hand, a microphone is thrown at the hand before retreating back to its holder...

〈I'm not done yet, you freaky zombie!〉
Ah, so you have recovered, and now you're looking for a fight? How very interesting...

---

Ashura approaches.

You looking for me?

---

Kamemehameha - (Level/Energy) A blast of pure Meme energy, fired identically to the Kamehameha of Dragon Ball fame. Pronounced "KAH-MEEM-HAH-MEH-HAH" (Not "KAH-ME-ME-HAH-MEH-HAH").
Chaotic Kamemehameha - (Anti-Omni/Energy) Beta Devil's take on the Kamemehameha, boosted in base power through the use of Anti-Omni Energy, as well as the inclusion of Cursed Meme energy in the attack.

Ending:
...
You know, it is unwise of you to have been following me this whole time.
But for what it’s worth... I do appreciate the flattery.

Ninja Ghost looks up to see a peculiar figure hovering above him...

...Despite what you’re currently thinking, this is not some sort-of knock-off cosplay. I am you from the future.
Ahh, I see. And I assume you’re here to help me use these Ultra Gems to crush those meddling heroes once and for all, correct?
Far from it.

Suddenly, Ninja Ghost’s Ultra Gems are dragged over to Ninja Phantom, who then causes them to disappear, warping them to an unknown location.

What the...!? What the hell do you think you’re doing!?
A favor. Now, here...

Ninja Ghost is suddenly given a piece of paper...

...A To-Do list? What the hell am I supposed to do with this? Half of what's on here doesn't even make any sense! ...And who the hell is “Alternate Aeon”?
You will find out in due time.
And how do you suppose I “troll” him then, smart?
I dunno, here’s some ing Mac n’ Cheese. Reference that one meme or whatever.

Ninja Phantom hands Ninja Ghost a box of Mac n’ Cheese, then goes to leave.

...Ah, yes. One last word of advice before I go...
Your destiny does not lie where you think it does. Those you thought to be your enemies shall become powerful allies. Those who you believe serve you will ultimately betray you. In the end, you will become something you thought you would never become.
And when that day arrives, I would suggest accepting it sooner rather than later.

Ninja Phantom disappears.

...Tch.
And just who does this “me from the future” think he is, anyway? I know where my destiny lies... And it begins with the destruction of those putrid heroes and that wretched Rotom.
...But, fine. I'll play along for now, and see where this will lead.

But in the end... I know who I am. And there is NOTHING that will make me question otherwise.

Another pre-prepared fighter, this time being one of my own.

Bio: Having existed in the Void for a long time, a brief window of opportunity has allowed for Ninja Ghost to make his escape. Since then, he has taken up the mantle as the major antagonist of Beta Man and his friends. But with his plots ranging from world domination to complete annihilation, it’s hard to pinpoint what endgoal is outside of “kill the heroes”.

Reggae's Instantaneous Censorship Service! Even works great on live TV and broadcasts, or your money back!
I'll mail you my bill later.

In Mike's mailbox is one of Reggae's spare beaks.

---

Reggae just does three Hyperspeed Crashes while Nitron P just does another Gun n' Run.

By the way, just out of curiosity, what happens if we do take the deal?

I've been working on a program... An AI that will allow me to do just that, and more. I haven't quite gotten to the finer details just yet... But I have JUST come up with a name before you walked in.

I've decided upon the name... Sage.

*Referring to an earlier post, when Sonic was knocked from Ruin Woods to Metal Island by Hyper Scourge.
**Reference: The Chaos Zone Part 1, Page 86, Post #11.

Following the battle against Scourge, our heroes- Sonic especially- are recovering from the damage dealt to them by Hyper Scourge.

How are you holding up, Sonic?
Better. Everything still hurts, but it's better.
I'm still surprised you were still standing after such a direct blow from a Hyper form*... I know my plan wasn't the best, but we've really cut it close on this one.

Meanwhile, Ristar, Billy Hatcher, and Boomer are talking with Bane and Fortem about the task at hand.

...So, after you defeat this... "Dr. Eggman", was it? You plan on using the Chaos Emeralds to help that Pikason guy get home?




Ristar and Billy look to each other, then back at Fortem.

...Yeahhhhhhh sorry, but after what just happened, I think only having had one moment of fame doesn't sound so bad in comparison.
Yeah, I don't think we're quite cut out for this sort-of thing... Maybe if you need our help with anything else, we'd be willing, but as it currently stands? ...I think we're good, thanks.

Boomer, on the other hand, thinks for a moment, then decides.

...Well, I myself never had a moment in the limelight, even in the minor sense... Besides, it's not like I'm doing anything else.
...Yeah, sure, I'll go ahead and join you guys. Hopefully you'll find me to be of some help.
...Just, uh... Don't expect me to jump in if something like Scourge crops up again.



〈But how do we get these other two off this place? It's not like we could just drop what we're doing and take them back.〉
I WILL GO. I AM CERTAIN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO PROTECT CREAM IN MY ABSENCE. I WILL NOT BE LONG.

The group comes to agreement. Gemerl then leaves with Billy and Ristar.

---

Meanwhile, a particular individual is wandering the halls of the castle when he stumbles across Eggman, who is seemingly working on something.

Ah, greetings, Ivo. What are you working on here?



Ah, greetings, Albert! It's nothing much, really; Just making some preparations for my next scheme, is all.
Next scheme? HAH! As if this one's going to fail! Even if that "Scourge" fellow put a wrench in things, I'm sure that we'll CRUSH that blue rodent of yours, and Mega Man to follow!
Oh, please. I've already learned my lesson about this sort of thing, Albert; If you don't prepare yourself for failure, you're doomed to be met with it.
And besides, even if we end up able to defeat Sonic and Mega Man... I know you've been left rather out of the loop for quite some time, but in a world like this... You'll never know when you'll be met with a more formidable foe.

Wily ponders these words for a moment.

Hmm... Very well, then. I suppose you have a point...
...What exactly is your next plan about, anyways?
I'm glad you asked! You see, before I was abducted by that strange other me's badniks**, I happened to have come across a long-lost ancient alien civilization... One that far predates even the Echidnas and the Babylonians. Their technological prowess were so incredible... So, I plan on assuming control over all of it!
...An ancient alien civilization with advanced technology... I can't help but recall the bad memories I had with Ra Moon. And how exactly do you plan on taking over their technology, anyways?

Hey, you know how I said I'd do an actual character later?

Well, as it turns out, I've already got one ready. And due to the whole "OC -> Official Mega Man Character -> Repeat" rotation I've been doing, I figured I'd actually break the cycle by doing ANOTHER OC...

...Except this time, it isn't mine.

Miscellaneous
Bio: As Dr. Wily’s servant, Disco isn’t too unfamiliar with the concept of going rough; With roughly 70 robot masters and countless mechas to look after, you’re bound to run into some trouble that requires getting dirty. That said, Disco wouldn’t truly believe that Dr. Wily would rely on her to compete and win in the tournament, but it seems the doctor wishes to expand his chances at winning to as great of a degree as he can, considering the growing competition...

Ending:
Nuhahahahaha... Excellent work, Disco!
It was no big deal, really... Just doing my job.
...At least it’s more than I can say for SOME people.
*Grumbles*
Once I’m done with these Ultra Gems, perhaps I should promote you to a proper fighting robot... After all, it seems like you’ve proven yourself capable!
That would be much appreciated, doctor.
(After all... It’s about time I got the respect I’ve rightfully deserved around here.)

Hey, thought I should inform you that, with your additional quotes document...



...Yeah...







I'll probably do an actual character or something "later"

Unfortunately, due to the severity of his wound, the Recovery Buster does nothing.*

Ashura nods at Sonic Man. Sure, he had a reason for coming here outside of what has occurred... but he knows that now isn't the time for that. For now, he chooses to wait for a better time to address his reason for being there.

---

...I see that you have disposed of Rozner... Good. Whether he lived or not would normally be of no consequence for me... But the fact that he knows too much of my plans to let him stick around the Brash Crew is too much to ignore.
Indeed... I'd say you were right to choose me for the job.

Suddenly, another figure speaks up.

AS MUCH AS I CARE NOT FOR THE LIFE OF ORGANIC BEINGS, I FEEL LIKE IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THIS HAS LED TO THE PERMANENT REMOVAL OF YOUR "RIGHT HAND".



Hmm. Yes, I suppose you have a point... Not just my right hand, either; He was also our lead scientist... And even our second-best is currently out in Lavender Town to... "Gather resources", I believe he called it. Either way, he is currently in no position for me to promote him until he returns... Assuming that he even does so.
And with Scourge having gone and rebelled against us, and even then having removed himself from existence... It is a simple fact that I cannot ignore.
In terms of anything more than a minor footsoldier... The Coda Syndicate is drastically decreasing in numbers. As such, we should aim to do what we must to prevent that number from going any lower.
In that case, perhaps it would be in our best interest to find a way to increase our numbers?
Perhaps... But how we would even go about it is something I will have to think about.
Until then, you two are dismissed.

The two nod, then head off in separate directions of each other. Coda proceeds to sit alone with his thoughts.

---

*Alright, full disclosure: The entire reason I'm having Rozner killed off here is because there is literally NOTHING else I can do with this character. Literally any other role that he could potentially fill is either already been taken by far better (and more well-established) characters (Ex. He can't just go on and be a supporter for the DOS and Revolt Robots because they already have Dr. Doppler) or is overall not needed (Ex. He cannot fill in a similar role for my own characters because several of them are not robots, and even for those who are, they don't really need one). I feel like giving him an impactful and meaningful death would be better than to just have him still be around for no reason, or to disappear for no reason.

(TL;DR I have no further plans for this character, and I just don't want him to be around for no reason to do nothing.)

Dastardly doesn't even flinch as Mechabit charges forwards. He simply stands there with a sinister grin...

...before catching the attack with just his two fingers.

Fool... I was trained under the second strongest being in the ENTIRE hierarchy, EONS before you were even conceived. If it wasn't for that undeserving SLACKER, Robbie Rotten, I probably could've had a place on that hierarchy myself. What's more, I have been undergoing further combat training during my time as General of the Heeta Force*.
...Perhaps if I had appeared much sooner, that Dyna Man of yours might have a slight chance of giving you the edge; I have, after all, underwent the effects of aging. Even someone like myself who has been gifted eternal life through the training of the gods are subject to it without a proper divine status.
...However, thanks to Coda not only amplifying my training further, but ALSO finding a way to restore me to the prime of my youth...

Mechabit is then launched effortlessly through the wall of the laboratory.

...NONE of you could ever defeat me. Not together, and certainly not on your own.
...Fortunately, I was only here to carry out an order from Coda. And besides... The objects of my revenge are something of a... HIGHER status.
But for now... I bid you all farewell.

Dick Dastardly then warps off elsewhere, leaving the DOS Bots, and everyone else present, to take in all that has occurred.

*Bootleg Frieza Force, led by the bootleg Frieza known as Heeta, who was killed by Beta Shadow when he first arrived to the MMRPG Omniverse and discovered his powers as a Reaper. Has made a minor appearance during the Regulus Arc, but became horribly insignificant, even in the context of their appearance back then.

...Truth be told, something I should've realized long ago... was that he had zero intention of following through with his promise from the very start.
It wasn't until I helped him in creating the Coda Corruption alongside another scientist that I started to realize his evil intentions... But even then, I still held onto that hope that he would follow through with his promise. I even clung onto the belief that the heroes of this world would be able to purge it of the Corruption, finding the good in the evil I was working with.
...But I was meant to encounter you as far back as the situation in Wood Zone... and it was when I was called back for the sole reason that none of you were there that I had come to realize that I was only being used as a source of emotional turmoil for you.

...But now that I've been defeated... I myself am unsure of what comes next. Truth be told... I have reasons to believe that Coda expected for me to meet some form of demise.
...Though, there are those who have left Coda's group that have been left alone before... Perhaps he's not even aware that I am still alive. So, perhaps I can-

Suddenly, a ki blast pierces Rozner in the chest from behind, causing him to collapse. The cause of the strike stands tall... albeit with a hunch.

With all the information you know? Sorry to say, doctor...
...But Coda has decided to make an exception.

Having been knocked far, far away by Hyper Scourge, Sonic is flung directly into the entrance of the Zone. Despite taking a heavy hit, and having been dealt major damage throughout the fight as a whole, he manages to pick himself up to some degree.

...Is that... the best... you've got...?

---

Knowing fully well Sonic is still standing, Scourge's anger reaches its maximum.

ENOUGH OF THIS!

Hyper Scourge then Boosts towards Sonic with incredible speed that only builds up as he makes a beeline for the blue blur.

---

Scourge almost instantly arrives at Metal Island, with Sonic in his sights...

DIE!!!!!

And then, faster than a blink of an eye, Scourge... vanishes?

Huh? What just happened...?

Suddenly, the rest of the group arrive, with Pikason and Feels being the first of them to get there.

...It's just as I thought. Scourge had all that power... Power that only grew stronger over time, without limit...
...But he had no means of truly controlling it. In the end... His arrogance was his downfall.
〈...So, does this mean that he's...?〉
I wouldn't say he's dead per se...

---

...But wherever he ended up... I have a feeling that we won't be seeing him for a long time.

Meanwhile, at a house of sorts in another dimension, Hyper Scourge appears suddenly, crashing into the wall.

GAH! What the...!?

Scourge looks around at his surroundings.

What is this place...?

Suddenly, a figure appears...

...Ah, it appears that I have a new roommate. I'd make myself comfortable, if I were you...

The figure then reveals himself...

...You're going to be here for a LONG time.

---

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

*Reference: Tails' Skypatrol

Reggae Pesters again, then Hyperspeed Crashes before going for a Battery Puncture.

Nitron P does The Customer is Always Right to increase the damage output.

Pssh, you think I care about the turn order? Nah. Besides, I hope you realize that it's also making you go later than normal, too, right?
Literally the only people benefiting from this are the slow people. You don't get anything out of this. Talk about a wasted turn.

Reggae and Nitron P both take a W-Tank. Reggae then Pesters once before setting up an Anti-Tank.
