Suddenly, before the attack can be launched, Rotom Devil Sucker Punches Future Devious in the face, breaking the freezing on all Anti-Omni-Corrupted entities!

  Didn't you hear The fedora dude? Your asspulls have RUN. OUT. Trying to struggle your way out of this one any more will only make your death more painful.

Future Devious is then trapped inside a PK Cyclone Ω!

  You'd just keep pestering us no matter WHAT direction the universe went in, ANYWAY. That's how conceited you are.

Collateral Aeon Devil then uses Defense Tide, sharply raising the Defense of all his allies, only to be hit with a Megiddo Flame along with Alternate Aeon Devil and Rotom Devil, and targets the other Devils as well! Rhys uses his second action to fire a Keraunos at Ninja Yokai!

Rotom Devil goes back to squaring off with Theta Rotom, and they seem to be tied in strength! Theta Rotom, tries to shoot a Dark Pulse, which Rotom Devil avoids!

Collateral Aeon tries to use an Omniskewer on his crimtane double, only for it to do minimum damage! Alternate Aeon follows up with a PK Dark α, which only does slightly more!

Legacy Aeon takes a CRITICAL HIT from the Beta Blast! (by the way, just gonna say that Explode is one of Legacy Aeon's weaknesses from now on.) Legacy Aeon then fires a Flame Belch from his shoulder cannon at Blood Beta!

The Anti-Devil Hallowitzer opens its chest up again, this time revealing a MASSIVE rocket launcher, and positions itself so that if Beta Diablo dodges, the latter'll risk letting Collateral Aeon Devil get hit instead! The Hallowitzer then fires a Hallowed Omega Rocket at Beta Diablo!

---

Hallowed Omega Rocket
Type: Copy/Missile/Explode
Description: The user fires a MASSIVE Anti-Devil Hallow rocket at the target, exploding on contact and dealing extreme damage! The damage bonus when this crits is doubled, but it has only 85% accuracy.

Rhys yeets the afterimage targeting him off the tower, and folllows up with a Meteor Rain! The Anti-Devil Hallowtizer opens its chest, revealing a massive tesla coil, attempting to zap Beta Diablo with a Hallowed Sigma Voltage!

Collateral Aeon Devil tanks the Magic Explosions, and tries to attack Mighty with a Giga Blast, as Collateral Aeon tries a Giga Blast of his own against his crimtane doppelganger, only for it to be dodged! Collateral Aeon feels a PK Dark γ to the back, while Future Devious takes a Point-Blank Discharge to the back, followed by a Shadow Ball to Rhys' face, which somehow managed to deal some damage!

  HAH! Thought you got away with that one, didn't you? TOO BAD, I'm alive and haxxing!
  

  Face it, barrier guy, you're out of time, and out of pulls.
  

Suddenly, Legacy Aeon tries to Chainsaw Blood Beta, as Alternate Aeon Devil is hit with a PK Hax γ, and Rotom Devil by a Dark Pulse!

You're a real weakling, you know. Haven't you realized Edgelord Reaper's the one who got rid of your home universe?
  Idiot, that was ALL his non-edgy counterpart! Besides, why would you team up with the same person who wiped the rest of your buddies!?
Think about it, that red guy's basically all of Reaper's evil personified!
  "Evil" is really only what you make of it!

---

Move Name: Hallowed Sigma Voltage

Parallel Fuse Man charges his Disco Buster, whilst staying on guard for anything someone else might try!

---

Parallel Fuse Man | Level 46 | HP: 541/541 | ATK: 272 ⯆⯆ | DEF: 522 | SPE: 594

Theta Rotom charges Z-Power in preparation to finish Nuru EX (or whatever name you have for this form, if you already DO have one) off, only to be struck in the back by a CRITICAL Crimtane Hydro Crash!

GAH! The f was THAT!?
  That... would be MYSELF.
  

Dammit Collateral, It's bad enough that you keep butchering my name, but now you're actively HELPING Beta Devil!?
I'm CLEARLY not doing that, dude.
Wait a second...

Alternate Aeon constantly switches between glaring at Collateral Aeon and Collateral Aeon Devil.

THERE'S TWO OF THEM!?
  INDEED, ALTERNATIVE! I happen to be from the future where Beta Devil wins, and I've been summoned here by my buddy Nuru to kick your aes once and for all! There's more devils on the way, too!
Wait, how many Rogue Stars do I end up absorbing to become THAT overdesigned!?
  I lost count at about 6. NOW GIVE ME YOUR SOULS!
  ...That sounded MUCH cooler in my head.
To be fair, I probably WOULD start saying that if I turned evil.

Alternate Aeon Tries PK Cyclone γ on Collateral Aeon Devil, dealing a small bit of damage, while Collateral Aeon's regular attack does barely anything!
Legacy Aeon fires his Chaingun at Nuru, while Rhys shoots a Mind-Charged Keraunos at Beta Diablos, as the Anti-Devil Hallowizter uses Icy Wind to attack all foes at the same time, which does a slight number on Collateral Aeon Devil, and lowers his Speed stat!

---

Move Name: Crimtane Hydro Crash
Type: Water/Damage
Description: The user causes a massive, bloody waterfall to crash down upon the target, dealing massive damage and minimizing debuffed stats!

SO. How come two Plot Cops got corrupted so easily, ESPECIALLY when Upsilon's still narrating?
Second, how come there's TWO K. Rools?
And third, Updog, you think you could try to get these corpses somewhere so we can do research on the Coda Corruption?
Pretty sure we should be worrying about the other guys first.
Yeah, that's probably a better idea.

Shired fires his Needle Cannon at Devil K. Rool, and Updog tries to yeet Coda Surge into the ceiling!

...Still really regret taking a massive break during the Worship arc.

Rhys dodges the STEEL Roller, and uses a Big Hook on Nuru, followed by a Hallowed G-Cannon!
Theta Rotom adds a Thunder to the mix, while Legacy Aeon also turns his attention to Nuru, and fires a Stun Bomb!
Collateral Aeon charges Starforce energy, in preparation for a big attack!

As if YOU have any right to talk about persistence! This is like, what, the sixth time you revived from the dead?

While the Anti-Devil Hallowizter is trying to avoid the massive lasers and counterattacking Beta Diablo with a Max Flutterby, Alternate Aeon tries to attack both Nuru and Beta Diablo at the same time with PK Hax Ω!

Type: Electric
Accuracy: 70%

Description: The user unleashes a barrage of weaponized 1337 Haxor cred, dealing massive damage to all enemies! The more Sol Needles the user has pulled, the more levels of this the user can cast, with Σ at 1, γ at 2, and Ω at 3.

---

*The Copy type is meant to represent the Anti-Devil Hallow in this case.
**Since Max Flutterby is Bug-type in Gen 8, it shares its type with Max Growth.

Suddenly, a massive, Iceland*-sized robotic entity appears, looming over Joyous Tower, and tries to punch the f out of Beta Diablo with its giant f-off arms!

  DOWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA...
...I can't help but feel like I'm missing a bunch of context here.
  Oh, that's just the Anti-Devil Hallowitzer in "Mudamudamudamudamuda" mode.
  ...WAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA...

Rhys then shoots a Keraunos at Nuru, followed up by a Steel Roller!

Wait a sec, you can't use Steel Roller without a terrain active!
  Do you even READ field multipliers?
  ...WAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA!

---

Known users: Rhys

---

*No, not that tiny rock covered in green, I'm talking about where the north pole is.

Theta Rotom is only made stronger by the evil energy, and suddenly teleports RIGHT behind Beta Diablo and lets loose a Point-Blank Discharge! Legacy Aeon then takes the opportunity to fire his charged BFG 9000 at Beta Diablo, as Alternate Aeon follows up with a PK Cyclone γ!

Bringin' back a classic with this one!
You're not the ONLY one who can bring back the classics!

Collateral Aeon, not willing to be outdone, switches out of Space Mode and tries to nail Beta Diablo with a Giga Blast!

Freakin' nostalgia bugs. Then again, I'm the dude running around dressed as Doomguy.

---

Move Name: Discharge
Variants: Point-Blank

Move Name: Giga Blast
Type: Explode
Description: The user extends their palm at an area, and triggers a MASSIVE house-sized explosion there, dealing equally-massive damage with an increased rate of critical hit! This also ignores half of the target's defense and ignores Affinities, and treats Immunities as though they were merely resistances!

Collateral Aeon manages to guard against the Shock Wave, while Theta Rotom uses Stored Power! Collateral Aeon then switches to Space Mode and uses Defense Cosmology, raising the Defense of all allies by 2 stages! Legacy Aeon proceeds to charge his BFG, aiming not to split the timeline, but rather nail Beta Devil like Theta Rotom did with that Gigavolt Havoc earlier! Meanwhile, Alternate Aeon guards, anticipating a big attack!

Gee, haven't heard THAT one before.

---

Ability Name: Stored Power
Type: Space
Description: The user attacks the target with stored psychic energy, dealing damage! This move's power increases by 10 for every positive stat change the user has.

Just try me.

Theta Rotom suddenly launches another Shock Wave, as Legacy Aeon pulls out his Chaingun and opens fire! Alternate Aeon tries PK Hax γ, and Collateral Aeon uses a Hydro Crash!

Eh, haven't really interacted with the guy all that much.
Can't really form a decent opinion here, either.
Don't really remember much, though he IS kind of a decent guy when you get to know him.


Hold on, let me just turn off the bolded text- Arceus, I gotta flip like 13 mental switches just to make my text look norm- oh, there we go.
It's hard for me to find personality flaws in people, but now that I think about it, there's quite a bit I'm not exactly a fan of when it comes to Reaper.
He's a bit of a plot stickler, he kept cramming copies of me in games with dumb endings, (the end of that one Power Fighters sequel was pretty good, though) he turned into some guy made of explosive barrels one time and annihilated the moon...
...And he wiped my home universe and crammed me in a fake one. Which I've only forgiven him about 70% for.
But now that you've barged in here, there's something I realized about that whole incident, and it's shed QUITE a bunch of light on the debacle as a whole...

Suddenly, a Gigavolt Havoc strikes Beta Devil!

All that universal destruction... Every bad part of Reaper... Any other bad stuff Reaper did that I might not even be AWARE of...
  YOU had a hand in ALL of that, DIDN'T YOU!?

---

Parallel Fuse Man dodges the Frost Waves and fires a Spark Shock at Knack!

Parallel Fuse Man dodges with some difficulty, and uses Time Slow to slow Knack down!

---

Theta Rotom suddenly fires a Shock Wave at Beta Devil, followed by a Confuse Ray!

You fool, I've been trained in your bullstery arts by Count Dooku!
...Okay, that was a lie. I'm actually naturally good at godmodding, I guess. Besides, who would want to be pals with Count friggin' Dooku? He probably doesn't even have good taste in cinnamon rolls! The Attack boost from those Charge Beams DOES help, though.

Legacy Aeon suddenly fires his BFG at Beta Devil, while Alternate Aeon goes for a Regular Attack! Collateral Aeon then ues a Hydro Crash on Beta Devil!

---

Type: Electric

Parallel Fuse Man | Level 46 | HP: 541/541 | ATK: 272 ⯆⯆ | DEF: 522 | SPE: 594

Sounds to ME like you want to try and push my buttons. Not gonna happen!

Rotom suddenly activates the Theta Sigil, causing his power to skyrocket!

You're about to get HAAAXXXXED!

Theta Rotom suddenly launches a barrage of Charge Beams at Beta Devil!

---

Mah Boi is teleported into the cockpit of the  Anti-Devil Hallowitzer,  as the interface flares to life!

  How's the seat, Mah Boi?
  Pwetty comfy, actuawwy. Though, it feels wike I can see evewyone, even tho thewe should be a buncha awmor in da way.
  That would be the Gem-Camera. It lets you see outside the Hallowitzer despite the fact that you're technically in a pocket dimension where the cockpit is housed. I also secretly used some of Trimarc's Flex Glue to further secure the parts. Also, those wings? To show you the power of Flex Seal products, I chansawed the Empress of Light into a billion pieces, and combined its remains with Eternatum and upscaled the arms and wings. Now the power of top-tier crafts(wo)manship plus Flex Glue holds this beast together.
First you sanction Mah Boi into fighting a Reaper, then you tell me that you STOLE MY FLEX GLUE!?
  Not important right now, Trimarc. Also, you won't need to get used to the controls, I've already beamed a ton of piloting skill for this thing into your brain. I can't teleport this entire thing at once, so you're going to have to head to where Beta Devil is yourself.
  Meanwhile, while I try to get this up and running...
  

Suddenly, Legacy Aeon, Alternate Aeon, and Collateral Aeon are instantly teleported to the top of Joyous Tower, bypassing the entry conditions entirely!

...What.

---

Terminology: Theta Sigil
Description: An ability Rotom possesses that slowly burns through his stamina, but essentially triples his stats and ability to beat people up and giving him a TON of powerful skills, whilst elevating him to Pseudoreaper-tier.

Move Name: Charge Beam
Type: Electric/Laser
Description: The user fires a concentrated bundle of electricity at the target, dealing damage and raising the user's Attack stat!

Rotom gets wallslammed!

  Wha- did he just nope.avi my attack!?

Rotom's level suddenly shoots up to 100, assuming it wasn't before!

But Edgelord Reaper, aren't you forgetting something about this place? Specifically, the entry rules?

Rotom uses Foul Play on Beta Devil!

---

  Alright, turns out Beta Devil's still on earth. Time to bring in the big guns.

Suddenly, each Member of Team Aeon (except for Parallel Aeon 1 because he's dead) is teleported to Doppler Labs'  Hallowitzer  room, along with Cardboard Phantasm.

Oh, COME ON! We were SO CLOSE to beating that guy!
  Actually, no you weren't. Anyway, Beta Devil's here, and that guy with the arrow can wait.
Beta Devil? Why didn't you say so? I'm gonna go spam memes in his general!
  Not so fast, Trimarc. Remember what happened the last time you tried that?
Crap, that's right, he's got an elemental affinity for all memes and whatnot.
  Not ALL of them. There's actually one meme that ignores this immunity; The Omni-Meme. See, I temporarily "borrowed" it from Cranky as a measure against Beta Devil, and enhanced the   Anti-Devil Hallow  by using the former as a battery of sorts. Heck, an un-enhanced  Anti-Devil Hallow   was what protected me from the Anti-Omni Corruption the first time.
Wait... is that the blue stuff Mah Boi absorbed in the old thread?
  Pretty much. That's why I'm going to need Mah Boi to pilot THIS.

Suddenly, the shutters open, revealing the  Anti-Devil Hallowitzer!

  You never told me you were bringing a secret weapon the size of Greenland!
  That's because I said I was bringing one the size of ICELAND.
  THIS IS WAY BIGGER THAN ICELAND!
  Actually, it's much bigger than GREENLAND. I swear, their names must have been swapped somehow.
Oh no you don't! You are NOT going to put an innocent boi in harm's way with that thing!
  Sorry, but the cockpit is Snom-sized, and I don't have time to make it bigger.
Well TOO BAD, because I'm NOT handing this Luxury Ball over, and no amount of narration can change that!
  You saying you'd rather let King Crimson over there blow everything up?
Maybe I am, and maybe I ain't!
BOWFA YOO, STAP FAYTEENG!

D- did that Luxury Ball just bounce?

Louke, if weer gonna beet dis guy, we can'd jusd awgue fowever! Sumwon needs too go in da Hawoweetza, and id's gonna be me!
Oh no you don't! I can't just get a replacement boi!
WOOD YOO RATHA GED SUM WANDOM SNOM ON DA STWEET TA DO IT!?
*sigh* ...I hope you know what you're doing.

(TBC next post)

---

Move Name: Foul Play
Type: Shadow
Description: The user turns the target's own power against them, dealing damage! This uses the target's Attack stat in damage calculation instead of the user's.

---

Suddenly, Rotom, now Level 100, fires a Thunderbolt at Beta Devil!

Okay, who gave Beta Reaper 2 the Chaos Emeralds!?
  

Just as suddenly as the Beta Devil clones burst in, a 4th Wall comes flying at the horde!
  

Phantasm had ditched the place long ago, while Cardboard Phantasm manages to dodge the arms, and uses an Astro Crush to attack the arms!

---

---

Suddenly, Rotom fires a Thunderbolt at where Beta Devil was!

Mind telling me what THAT was all about? First the tower falls to the ground, then Beta Reaper 2 comes bursting in with a super form that I assume he used the Chaos Emeralds for, and then time suddenly rewinds. Sounds pretty serious to me.
  

  Dunno, man. But what I AM quite certain of is this;
  Beta Devil now knows about the  Anti-Devil Hallowitzer,  and he's probably planning some sort of countermeasure.
  That, and he's reaching the Godzilla Threshold. You know, if he hasn't done so at least 27 hundred times already. That means we gotta up our game hardcore.
  I've given Phantasm flasks of  Anti-Devil Hallow  offscreen, and I'm having him distribute it to places where the Anti-Omni Corruption beams hit earlier before Ninja Phantom retconned it. And by "given offscreen", I mean I teleported that stuff into his inventory, and by "distribute" I mean throw at and let spread.
  There are also more that he's been instructed to throw at spots he's not very likely to fire beams at. Don't want him throwing us for a loop. Remember, I "borrowed" the Crystal Coconut until the arc ends, and that'll actually give the  Anti-Devil Hallow  a better chance against Beta Devil. Also, there's a non-hijackable device that automatically teleports the Coconut back to Cranky when the arc ends.
  

  Yeah, and if you and the other nightmares go around murdering any other people, they're probably gonna experience it too. Or do you WANT that existential dread thrust upon them?
  Now then, if you'll excuse me, my non-cardboard counterpart has to go throw bottles of cyan stuff at a bunch of spots those red beams hit.

Parallel Fuse Man dodges the Hammer Arms, and uses Time Slow to attack the robots whilst slowing them down!

Parallel Fuse Man tries to attack both the robots and the Black Jewel with an Astro Crush!

So, how do you suppose we fight THAT thing?

---

Parallel Fuse Man | Level 46 | HP: 541/541 | ATK: 272 ⯆⯆ | DEF: 522 | SPE: 594

Suddenly, Parallel Fuse Man, still using his Speed Gear, fires a Time Arrow right at the Black Jewel's eye!

Hey, how you doing?
