Description[]
Archie Sonic vs Dragon Ball Heroes. The Fastest Sonic and the Strongest Goku face off, and only one can truly earn the title of hero of the multiverse.
Intrerlude[]
(Queue Wiz & Boomstick - Brandon Yates)
Wiz: When all reality is on the brink of annihilation, they are the beacon of hope, the light in the darkness, and the end of all things.
Boomstick: Master’s of strength and speed, when they go all out, it means the universe itself is probably on the brink of annihilation.
Wiz: Archie Sonic, Sega’s Undefeatable supersonic hedgehog.
Boomstick: Xeno Goku, the Super Saiyan savior of time itself.
Wiz: While Sonic and Goku have been pit against each other many times before, today we’re focusing on their strongest incarnations.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.
ARCHIE SONIC HITS THE GROUND RUNNING IN DEATH BATTLE![]
(Queue His World (E3 Instrumental) - Sonic the Hedgehog)
Wiz: Welcome to the world of Mobius, a strange alternate version of Earth where, due to a Gene Bomb dropped on the planet by an Alien Race known as the Xorda, the human race was driven to near extinction. But while humanity managed to miraculously survive, something even more spectacular began to happen. Various animal species began to evolve into humanoids with their own unique traits and characteristics. And, over a thousand years later, one of these Mobians would become far and away the world's greatest hero.
Boomstick: ♫Sonic! He can really move! Sonic, he’s got an attitude! Sonic! He's the fastest thing alive!♫
Wiz: Quite. Sonic Maurice Hedgehog, yes that’s his middle name, grew up in the city of Mobotropolis, but that all changed when the Warmongering Julian Kintobor of the House of Ivo launched a full scale coup d'état and took over not just Mobotropolis, but the entire world itself. Sonic and his fellow friends escaped into a small remote village in the forest known as Knothole, and from there, Sonic’s lifelong career as a freedom fighter began.
[Note: Feats & Abilities from the Post-SGW Reboot will be composited together with Archie Sonic’s Pre-Reboot self, as even excluding the fast Sonic was one of the few to remember both continuities, there’s nothing Post-Reboot Sonic can do his Pre-Reboot self cannot.]
Boomstick: Yeah, because this spiky blue rodent is a robot smashing master. Sonic can go from Zero to a billion in just a second. Even as a kid, he could scoop up water and throw it fast enough for it to take a solid form in just 100 attoseconds! You know how fast that is!?
Wiz: Why yes, it takes over one-
Boomstick: Really FUCKING fast Wiz!
[Note: It takes 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 attoseconds to make up one second of time.]
Wiz: That’s not really inaccurate, so to say. He’s fast enough to cross a continent and back in seconds, run along the multiverse spanning cosmic interstate in just a day, reverse a black hole generator with his momentum alone, and he’s even moved so fast that he managed to run through stopped time. Let me repeat that: time was frozen, and he could still move through sheer spread alone. Time itself is too slow for Sonic the Hedgehog!
Boomstick: That’s fucking stupid.
Wiz: That’s Archie Sonic for you.
Boomstick: Yeah well, Sonic himself still uses his crazy speed for those usual tricks you expect to see from him, like his Homing Attack, Spin Dash, and Super-Peel out. He can spin his body so fast he turns into a mini-tornado or creates massive whirlwinds, phase through objects by vibrating his body at insanely high speeds, and move fast enough to create afterimages of himself.
Wiz: And if Sonic ever starts slowing down, he can quickly restore his stamina with Power Rings, physical manifestations of the Chaos Force, an all-encompassing source of infinite energy that spans across universes.
Boomstick: So, it’s the Force.
Wiz: Pretty much.
(Queue Crisis City Modern - Sonic Generations)
Boomstick: Well, like Jedi, Sonic uses the Chaos Force for all sorts of insane feats. Those Power Rings can do more than just restore his stamina, they can also heal wounds, restore lost powers, and after he collected a Billion Power Rings, the gods of the Chaos Force themselves granted him a mental and spiritual shield that protects his mind and soul from corruption, mind control, and can even give him a limited amount of knowledge about events or whoever he’s fighting, almost like precognition.
[Note: Sonic was successfully Roboticized into Sonic Man during the second Mega Man crossover, but Post-Reboot Sonic no longer possesses the One Billionth Power Ring Aura. Had it still been in effect, he likely would have resisted losing his free will when Roboticized.]
Wiz: He can also use Chaos Control, a reality bending magic capable of incredible feats. By focusing the energy of the Chaos Force through Chaos Control, Sonic can teleport large distances, stop time, and travel between dimensions. Although unlike, say, Shadow, Sonic doesn't naturally have enough power to use Chaos Control, instead needing to rely on additional power to perform Chaos Control.
Boomstick: Man, it’s no wonder Sonic managed to topple Robuttnik’s Empire and free the world, there was no way he could lose!
Wiz: Especially when he gathered together all Seven Chaos Emeralds, the most pure and powerful manifestations of the Chaos Force, and combined them with the energy granted by his Power Rings to transform into the invincible golden god; Super Sonic.
Boomstick: If you thought Super Sonic was OP in the games, just you wait. Archie Super Sonic can do everything his game counterpart can like fly and shoot lasers, but he can also tangle with insane threats to the universe like Enerjak, who can rewrite the laws and matter of the universe itself, and Sonic took him on with no trouble whatsoever because, like he said, he’s invincible as Super Sonic! Hell, in a fight between Super Sonic and Hyper Knuckles, they hit each other so hard it resulted in a Zone being destroyed! How big is a Zone you ask? Well, it’s the size of a universe!
Wiz: Super Sonic’s power isn’t limitless, he can transform back to normal is be burns through all his ring energy and stamina, but he’s also been able to maintain the form for far longer than his video game counterpart, given he was able to maintain the form for hours while fighting Enerjak. But when push comes to shove, Sonic can go one step beyond Super, and become Ultra Sonic.
Boomstick: Ultra Sonic has access to the pure magical power of the Chaos Force, letting him manipulate the elements like fire and ice, but also by rewriting the atomic structure of reality, kind of like how that Enerjak guy did. He can transmute air into water, change the makeup of some rocks, or even open holes in reality and to other dimensions! Fuck, other Chaos Magic users like this Naugus dick was able to transmutate one of Sonic’s friends to restore her missing limbs!
Wiz: Ultra Sonic has even manipulated his own atomic state to acclimate to specific environments, so it’s likely that he could manipulate the atomic and molecular structure of others if he applied himself. But that is a pretty big if, since even Sonic himself recognizes he’s not great at rewriting the universe, so he typically only uses the Ultra Sonic form as a last resort, especially since it possesses a much shorter duration compared to Super Sonic.
Boomstick: Plus, Super Sonic is already capable of changing reality all on his own. When Doctor Eggman, who’s an evil future robot version of the Julian Robotnik Sonic beat used the Super Genesis Wave to reboot the universe, Sonic was able to use Chaos Control to put the universe back to normal, exactly the same it was before the reset. Yeah, you heard right! Sonic literally reset the universe! …you wanna see him do it again, this time with Mega Man?
[Note: The Super Genesis Wave completely breaks down and rebuilds the Universe from beginning to end, and Super Sonic’s Chaos Control was able to perfectly restore the universe the first time around.]
(Queue You Can Do Anything (Instrumental) - Sonic CD)
Wiz: Granted, he did mess up the second time, resulting in a complete multiversal reboot where he accidentally erased several god-like beings who could also manipulate the foundation of the universe from existence, but that was more due to Eggman’s own interference and him messing with Sonic’s concentracion more than anything else. Still, the Super Genesis Wave was able to completely break down and erase not only Sonic’s entire multiverse, but the extra-dimensional layers like the Chaos Force, Special Zone, and Mega Man’s own separate disconnected multiverse, and Sonic was able to completely rebuild the multiverse from nothing. There’s no way around it, Archie Sonic is practically unbeatable. His only real weakness is that he’s kind of a massive dick.
Boomstick: He’s a little co-dependent on Eggman being around so they can clobber the shit outta each other, and even when he has good intentions, his dickish personality still drives plenty of wedges between him and his friends. But when push comes to shove, Sonic will still do whatever it takes to save the world and his friends from anyone who dares threaten them, and no matter how hard you try to keep him down, he’ll just keep getting back up and keep on running.
Wiz: As a result of Sonic’s constant use of Power Rings and Chaos Emeralds, he’s become an embodiment of the will of Chaos. Fate seems to bend around him, he is a wrench in the cogs of reality, and even the best laid out plans simply cannot account for him. He’s chaotic, unpredictable, unstoppable.
Boomstick: He’s Sonic the Hedgehog, the Fastest Thing Alive!
Sonic: “I won't stop until I've saved everyone you've captured! I'll never stop until I've honored the sacrifices of everyone who's fallen along the way! And I won't be through until I've kicked your flabby behind once and for all! So you just keep pushin' me, doc! I'll push right back!”
XENO GOKU IS FULLY-POWERED UP FOR DEATH BATTLE![]
(Queue Cha-La-Head-Cha-La - Dragon Ball Z: Budokai)
Wiz: Welcome to the world of Dragon Ball Heroes, an arcade game turned whole other world featuring the timeline spanning war of the Time Patrollers and Time Breakers. While the Time Breakers created various distortions and anomalies in history in the game of the Demon Realm, the Time Patrol, headed by the Supreme Kai of Time with Future Trunks as her right hand man, would travel through time to fix these changes and make sure history played out as intended.
Boomstick: Thing is, the Time Patrol was a little short-staffed at first, so Pinky took a look into Trunks' memories to find the strongest warrior he knew. And who else would it be than Goku himself! You know, Saiyan raised on Earth, hit his head as a baby, first Super Saiyan in a thousand years, all that crap.
Wiz: But for this version of Goku, it’s not exactly the same. Unlike his current canonical counterpart, this incarnation of Goku went through variations of the old Dragon Ball Z movies, having previously fought Turles, Lord Slug, Broly, and Janemba, and living through the events of Dragon Ball GT instead of Super. And now, he lives on as a member of the Time Patrol.
Boomstick: Of course, he’s got the usual assortment of the Saiyan’s natural superhuman physiology and a knack for Ki techniques like flight, energy sensing, and all sorts of pew pew laser beams and such. He’s all sorts of complex techniques like Tenshinhhan’s blinding Solar Flare, Krillin’s Destructo Disk, his Master Roshi’s Mafuba and the one and only Kamehameha! Hey Wiz, have you ever thought about how all of Goku’s techniques are one’s he learnt from other people? Like all of them?
[Note: Xeno Goku regularly carries Senzu Beans and the Power Poll, though his use of the latter is often inconsistent.]
(Queue Battle Theme - Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission)
Wiz: Well, that’s not entirely true. Goku does have one technique he can call all his own, the mighty Dragon Fist, manifesting a ginormous Ki Dragon that eradicates anything in its path. But even then, he has a knack for taking other techniques and finding ways to improve their versatility like with the Warp Kamehameha, where he combines the Kamehameha with the Instant Transmission ability he learnt on Yardrat to unleash a devastating Kamehameha at point blank range.
Boomstick: The Super Spirit Bomb’s another good example of that. Sure, it take’s fucking forever to change, but Goku’s shown time and time again he can make it way, waaaaay bigger then King Kai ever intended for it to be, but the result is a devestatingly huge planet sized explosive, compared to the regular Spirit Bomb which is basically the size of the football. Similarly, Goku pushed the Kaio-Ken to way higher multipliers then sever intended, though it comes at the cost of absolutely fucking up his body.
[Note: It’s possible Xeno Goku experienced some events of Z Filler, like the Otherworld Tournament, and could possibly know how to perform the Super Kaio-Ken.]
Wiz: But Goku does not need to rely on the strained power up of the Kaio-Ken, as he can always assume the shining golden form of a Super Saiyan, the legendary Saiyan transformation that boosts his power by a whopping 50 times, and is surprisingly powered by a special microscopic organism called S-Cells. When a Saiyan with a pure heart experiences a burst of rage, the S-Cells activate and trigger an explosive boost in power that results in the Super Saiyan form.
Boomstick: Well, Goku’s trained his Super Saiyan form to its mastered “full power” state, and has unlocked standard multipliers like Super Saiyan 2 and 3. But since this Goku went through the events of GT, he’s also got the almighty final form of Super Saiyan 4, boosting the power of Super Saiyan 3 by ten times, and it comes complete with red fur and eye shadow. Fear the ultimate form!
[Note: While Super Saiyan 4’s multiplier is never officially stated, a 10x Multiplier is most likely due to combining the power of Super Saiyan with that of an Oozaru, which is 10x a Saiyan’s base power. The 10x Kamehameha’s existence further supports this theory.]
Wiz: And by drawing on the power of several other Super Saiyans, Goku pushes Super Saiyan 4 to its limits by becoming a Fully Powered Super Saiyan 4. But, by performing a special ki transfer ritual with Xeno Trunks and his Dragon Ball Super counterpart, Xeno Goku managed to shatter even that limit, becoming a Super Full Power Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker, a form that far surpasses even the original full power of Super Saiyan 4.
Boomstick: Wiz, I am not saying that name. That’s just dumb.
(Queue TEQ God Goku & Vegeta Theme - Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle)
Boomstick: Anyways, Limit Breaker 4 is a way stronger form than regular Super Saiyan 4, even enemies who could match Super Saiyan 4 in power struggle to keep up with Limit Breaker’s power. It can even keep up with power boosts like Vegeta’s Super Saiyan Blue Evolution and Goku’s Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-Ken times twenty!
Wiz: It’s possible this may be due to him having gained God Ki during the Ki Transfer performed to gain the Limit Breaker Super Saiyan 4 power, since three of the participants possessed God Ki, but this is just speculation. Either way, it’s undoubtedly this iteration of Goku’s most powerful form, and with it he’s done some incredible things, like battling the superpowered Black Janemba and taking on multiversal threats like Hearts, Fuu, and the Demon God Demigra.
Boomstick: He even helped fight Mechikabura, who was strong enough to swallow infinite timelines and dimensions, though it was Trunks who ended up putting that sucker down for good with his Deus-ex-Keyblade. Still, Xeno Goku’s pretty comparable to Trunks, so if Xeno Goky had the Keyblade, he probably could’ve done the same thing.
[Note: While Xeno Goku can wield the Key Sword in the Dragon Ball Heroes Arcade game, for various reasons it is not considered part of his Standard Arsenal and will not be given to him in this battle.]
Wiz: Even without the Key Sword Xeno Goku is fast enough to cross all of the otherworld and fly from heaven to hell in seconds, and with his Spirit Bomb, he could override the power of the Shadow Dragon’s Negative Karma ball. Heck, he’s even regularly matched his Super Saiyan Blue counterpart as a Super Saiyan 4, and that Goku was able to shake what was potentially an infinite void when he unlocked Ultra Instinct with his power alone, and broke through Hit’s time skip with a burst of speed from Blue Kaio-Ken.
[Note: There are a few potential moments of Xeno characters having immeasurable speeds, like flying through cracks of time and keeping up with Demigra, Fuu, and Mechkikabura, but these are hard to quantify and shaky at best.]
Boomstick: Don’t get that last one twisted though, that actually has nothing to do with speed. Whisky over here says it best himself, the effectiveness of Time Fuckery like Hit’s Time Skip varies based on the power level of the user and their opponent, hence why Blue Goku was able to bypass it by boosting his power with Kaio-Ken. This even applies to other hax shit in Dragon Ball, like Majin Vegeta resisting Babidi’s Mind Control and Vegito continuing to fight after being turned into candy.
Wiz: Well, the candy one is a bit out there, but that’s generally correct. Even Xeno Goku himself has mentioned that turning into a Super Saiyan 4 can radically affect the stability of spacetime around him, so he usually saves the form for a last resort.
Boomstick: Wiz, that’s a fucking lie and we both know it. He’s always busting that shit out, probably because it’s so damn popular and marketable.
Wiz: Still, it’s often worth remembering that Goku is a prodigy of combat. He’s a master martial artist, always coming up with new counters, strategies, and tactics. Even taking on the full power of Broly and Mira simultaneously isn’t enough to deter him from taking on a challenge. In fact, despite Xeno Goku’s generally more serious demeanor, he does occasionally let his Saiyan love of battle take over, though it’s typically reserved for more friendly spars, and doesn’t often come out during time patrols and battles against level end of existence threats.
Boomstick: So you better watch out, because if you dare to threaten time itself, this Goku will make sure the last thing you see is the ultimate power of a Saiyan Warrior.
Goku: "The killing stops here! All you can see is the light shining through the cracks around the edges of the door, Baby. And you just don't think that little bit of light can overcome your dark plans. But what you can't see is what's behind the door - that's what I am!"
DEATH BATTLE![]
Wiz: Alright the combatants are set, and we’ve run the data through all possibilities.
Boomstick: It’s time for a DEATH BATTLE!!!
// GREEN HILL ZONE \\
(Queue Green Hill Zone Modern - Sonic Generations)
The scene opens on a sunny sky, a red biplane soaring past the clouds above the Green Hill Zone with a familiar blue figure standing atop the front wings, his blue quills blowing in the wind as he looks back. It’s, of course, Sonic the Hedgehog, who looks back at his best friend in the Tornado’s cockpit.
Sonic: Hey Tails, how much further are we from the Chaos Emerald?
Tails: We shouldn’t be much further Sonic.
All of a sudden, a blip game through the Tornado’s radio.
Sally (V.O.): Sonic, are you there? How’s everything going? You aren’t causing more trouble, are you?
Sonic: Don’t sweat it Sal, we’ll get the Emerald and be back in time for Chili Dogs.
Sally (V.O.): Just be careful Sonic. Nicole is detecting some strange energy readings down there.
Sonic: Pssh, please. Careful is my middle name. Here, I’ll go get it right now.
Tails and Sally both spoke up, but Sonic didn’t seem to hear anything they said as he turned around and leaped off of the Tornado’s wings, diving down through the air past the clouds and curling up into a blue ball as he landed on a slope that launched him from a ramp and sent him hurling through Green Hill, launching off of various trees to keep his momentum going before finally skidding to a stop, kicking up some dirt as he did.
As Sonic glanced around slightly, resting one hand on his waist while his Emerald green eyes scanned the area around him for the Chaos Emerald, something in the corner of his vision caught his attention. A tall man with spiky black hair in a red and black outfit who was leaning against a tree, holding the Red Chaos Emerald in one hand, the Saiyan Raised on Earth, Son Goku.
Sonic: Hey there pal, mind handing that over?
Goku: Sorry, I'm afraid I can’t do that.
As Goku stood up straight and started walking closer to the blue hedgehog, he looked down at Sonic and his eyes narrowed slightly with a pensive, serious look on his face.
Goku: Sonic the Hedgehog. You’re under arrest for various acts of unsanctioned time travel, interdimensional travel, and altering of reality.
Sonic glanced at Goku’s hand for a moment before a grin appeared on his face.
Sonic: Alright…but you’ll have to catch me first!
(Queue Way Past Flash - Brandon Yates)
In a sudden blast of wind, Goku staggered for just a second as Sonic swiped the Chaos Emerald straight from his hand and took off running, letting out a Sonic Boom as he did. Goku blinked in surprise, but then powered up and took off flying after Sonic, firing off a few Ki Blasts that Sonic weaved past before he turned around and looked up at Goku to launch himself at the Saiyan with a Homing Attack. Quickly, Goku managed to block the attack and bring his fist around to go for a solid punch, but Sonic managed to block that attack as he flipped around and delivered a roundhouse kick to Goku that knocked him back into the ground before he landed with a backflip to get back on his feet.
Sonic: Hard way it is pal. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Goku: You aren’t beating me. This is your final race, rodent.
A smug smirk formed on Sonic’s face as he leaped forwards and threw a kick at Goku who quickly blocked the attack before he drew his hand back to deliver a solid punch that sent Sonic flying backwards. As the Hedgehog staggered, he quickly raised his arm to block another hit from Goku and spin-dashed around him, delivering a hit to Goku’s back before using his speed to barrage Goku with attacks from all angles.
Sonic: You’re too slow!
Quickly spinning around and kicking Sonic back, Goku fired a few stray ki blasts that Sonic dodged with ease before he leaped up into the air, gathering Chaos Energy into his body before flipping around in the air and kicking the Sonic Wave at Goku to force him to block, giving Sonic enough time to charge up a Super Peel Out and slam into Goku head on, pushing him into the side of a wall to start wailing of Goku with a barrage of high speed punches, when all of a sudden Goku’s left hand shot out to punch Sonic in the face before his right hand then came down and slammed the Blue Hedgehog into the ground, and Goku then combos that into a kick that sent him flying into the air.
Powering up and taking off, Goku soared after Sonic and delivered a fly-by roundhouse kick before drawing his hands above his head to smash Sonic back down into the ground with a Sledgehammer strike. As Sonic fell however, he quickly spun around and landed on his feet, grinning as he then rocketed up into the air with a mighty leap to fly back up at Goku, who began flying down at Sonic while readying himself to strike, when…
Sonic: Chaos Control!
Everything was suddenly different in the blink of an eye, and Goku let out a grunt of pain as Sonic’s foot lodged itself into his stomach. The strangest part was, from his perspective, Sonic had suddenly appeared above him and attacked him all without him being able to react, and dealt a single kick to his gut hard enough to send him flying back into the ground. How could one Hedgehog be so fast, let alone so capable?
He’d definitely have to take this more seriously if he wanted to take him down.
As Sonic began falling through the air from the pull of gravity, he curled into a Spin Dash and let himself build up momentum as he slammed down onto Goku with exhilarating force, more than strong enough to take down any normal opponent.
But this was no normal opponent.
In a howling cry of power, a scream echoed out as a golden pillar of light shot into the sky, and a force blew Sonic back that made even him gasp. Goku’s black hair had stood up on its end, now glowing golden as Goku floated upwards in the air, the aura of a Super Saiyan flaring to life, its monumental power shaking the very ground beneath the two fighters.
Sonic: What the…?
Goku: My name is Son Goku, and I am a Super Saiyan. Give now, you don’t stand a chance.
A single punch to the face sent Sonic flying back through the air before Goku punt-kicked him straight into the air, and with his feet resting on the ground, Goku brought his hands together and began charging together the famous signature technique of the Turtle School.
Goku: Kamehame..HAAAAAA!!!!
The beam rippled through the air straight at Sonic, and the Blue Blur’s eyes drifted down along the beam and down at the golden haired warrior who’d fired it. With a heavy sigh, Sonic huff, but then smirked as a rainbow aura began to emit from his body.
Sonic: Well, guess it’s now or never.
In a flash, seven multicolored Emeralds appeared surrounding Sonic as the beam began growing closer. The Seven Emeralds, green, cyan, blue, red, purple, yellow, and gray, all began circling around Sonic as the Kamehameha finally made impact with him, only for a golden blast of light to Goku’s attack away through sheer force, causing Goku to raise an arm and brace himself at the raw output of energy from his opponent.
(Queue Ore wa Tokoton Tomaranai! (Instrumental) - Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3)
In a blinding flash of light, Sonic began floating down towards the ground, a smirk on his face as his quills stood up on their ends and his furr glowed a bright golden
Super Sonic: Surprise pal. I can do that too.
Goku: It won’t change anything. You’re outmatched against me.
Super Sonic: Hehe… Prove it.
In a single calm motion, Goku darted forwards in a golden burst of ki aimed straight for Super Sonic, and the golden hedgehog met the Super Saiyan’s attack by throwing a punch that met Goku’s fist, the resulting shockwave spilling out for miles as they both took to the skies, two golden auras clashing as they traded a series rapid high speed punches and kicks with each other. As Goku threw a heavy punch aimed directly for Sonic’s face, Super Sonic suddenly ducked past it in a fraction of a second, and firmly implicated his fist into Goku’s gut before drawing his leg back and flipping forwards, performing his Sonic Eagle to directly kick Goku over the head the send him hurling downwards.
As Goku caught himself in the air and focused his sights on Sonic, he suddenly placed two fingers on his forehead and warped in front of Sonic with Instant Transmission. A smirk then appeared on Goku’s face as Sonic kicked at him, only for Goku to disappear and reappear behind him, and then warp again to his right just as Sonic had turned around, and then back over to Sonic’s front. As Sonic began glancing around, Goku picked up the pace of using his Instant Transmission, until Sonic had his back completely turned to him, and Goku began charging up a powerful Kamehameha.
Goku: KAMEHAMEHA!!!
Super Sonic: What-!?
Super Sonic spun around in a flash, but his eyes widened as he got hit with the blast point blank, getting engulfed by the blue ki beam that shot outwards past him and into the sky. But as the beam began to dissipate, Goku’s satisfied smirk suddenly turned to a surprised gasp as he looked up to see Super Sonic floating there in a relaxed pose and a smug smirk on his face.
Super Sonic: Nice try, but I’m invulnerable Wukong. You could keep trying those punches, but you wouldn’t be getting very far with them.
Goku: Don't think I’m out of this fight yet. I’m just getting started.
Super Sonic: Maybe, but like I told you…
In a sudden golden flash and a burst of wind, Super Sonic was floating behind Goku as he leaned over the Saiyan’s shoulder and grinned.
Super Sonic: You’re. Too. Slow.
Goku spun around to throw a kick at Sonic, but the golden Hedgehog dodged past it and Axe-Kicked Goku over the head to knock him down, but Goku quickly stopped himself in the air and charged back up at Sonic as the two of them entered a high speed rush clash, the two darting across the skyline with golden trailing auras as both dodged past each other’s attacks, Goku blocking a kick from Sonic before the Super Hedgehog weaved around his kick combo and delivered a spinning kick to Goku’s back. As Goku threw another punch that Sonic dodged past, Goku quickly drew his fist back and let his Golden Super Saiyan aura be enveloped in a burning red flame, something that caught even Sonic off guard as Goku screamed out a familiar phrase.
Goku: KAIO-KEN!
A blinding red flash was unleashed as Goku used the Kaio-Ken’s speed boost to land a solid sucker punch straight onto Sonic’s face before he deactivated the Kaio-Ken, then punted Super Sonic straight down into the ground and took off after him. As Super Sonic took back off into the sky, Goku twisted around and drew a fist back, and then exploded into Kaio-Ken again as he threw a meaty punch that Sonic barely managed to block, but the stalemate between them was broken when Goku suddenly disengaged from Sonic and leaped backwards, landing on the ground as his Kaio-Ken aura fizzled out, and Goku reverted back to base form.
Sonic had prepared to unleash an attack when something had caught his eye, and he noticed the bulging of Goku’s muscles looked strained and over-taxed, and he was straining to even move his body as he dug a hand into the pouch on his waist.
Super Sonic: Woah man, are you alright?
Goku: Hehe…I thought I could match your speed with the explosive power of the Kaio-Ken, but using it and Super Saiyan together just destroys my body instead. If I kept fighting you like that, I’d have been toast.
Pulling a Senzu Bean out of his bag, Goku took a bite of it to rejuvenate his body back to top form as well as restoring his stamina and ki reserves. He took a deep breath, and then let out an explosive power up as his Zenkai Boost kicked in from recovering from near death.
Goku: You’re pretty good Sonic, I’ll give you that. In return, before I get serious, I’ll give you a crash course on Super Saiyan’s.
Super Sonic: You sure about that pal?
Goku: You're going to love this, trust me.
In a flash, Goku transformed into a Super Saiyan, just as he’d been a moment ago.
Goku: This is a Super Saiyan. And this-
In another flash, Goku’s hair began to further spike as as he transformed into a Super Saiyan 2 Goku: -Is a Super Saiyan that has ascended beyond a normal Super Saiyan. Or, you could just call this, Super Saiyan 2. And THIS-
A third flash occurred, and now Goku’s hair had grown out far longer than before, almost reaching down to his feet.
Goku: -Is a Super Saiyan that surpasses even Super Saiyan 2! We can call this, Super Saiyan 3.
(Queue Super Saiyan 3 Transformation (94Stones Cover) - Dragon Ball Z)
However, Sonic seemed unimpressed as he watched Goku demonstrate the nature of Saiyan transformations, giving a bored sigh as he checked the non-existent watch on his wrist and impatiently tapped his foot on the ground before looking up at the exuberant hair of Super Saiyan.
Super Sonic: Oh, how cute, You go blonde and grow your hair out to get stronger. If I didn't know better, I'd be calling you a real copycat right now…
Goku: Hehehehe. And this...IS TO GO...EVEN FURTHER BEYOND!
A titanic scream is suddenly let out as the ground shakes and shatters below Goku, the shockwave nearly recoiling Sonic away as he raises an arm to brace himself from the pressure being emitted. A golden pillar of light rockets into the sky, warping the space around the arena, causing the sky to shatter and break away as space is distorted from the concentration of energy.
In the distance, Tails watched the pillar of light fire off into the sky from a hilltop view, holding a radio in his hand as he tried to get a look at what was happening.
Sally (V.O.): What's going on!? Is that Sonic's doing!?
Tails: I don't know! I've never seen such energy before!
Elsewhere, in the realm known as the Time Nest, The Supreme Kai of Time and Vegeta were watching the unfolding battle through one of the Time Scrolls.
Chronoa: What's Goku doing, using that form!? He’s going to make everything worse!
Vegeta: Kakarot! Hurry up and take that clown down!
As the world of Mobius itself began to shake violently from the force being unleashed, citizens everywhere shook and rocked back and forth from the shockwaves and earthquakes caused by the massive power up. One person unbothered by them, however, was one of Sonic’s rivals/allies, who instead looked out into the distance.
Shadow: Sonic...don't you lose.
…
Super Sonic: Talk about humongous energy!
As the shockwaves began to die down, Super Sonic lowered his arm and gasped at the sight before him, the red furred warrior, Son Goku, in the ultimate primal warrior form of the Saiyan Race.
Goku: This...is Super Saiyan 4. You should be proud of yourself, Sonic. Very few have pushed me this far in battle. I hope you can still keep up with me now.
Sonic exhaled as he took a look at the Saiyan warrior before him, and then gave a chuckle as he started floating upwards again.
Super Sonic: Now this is more like it. Let’s see how you keep up with me now!
(Queue Ultrasonic - Brandon Yates)
And then, Super Sonic flew off into the sky with a golden trail behind him, and Super Saiyan 4 Goku took off after him. Quickly catching up to Sonic, Goku threw a powerful punch that Sonic tried to block, but his guard was broken by the might of Goku’s power and he winced as he took the punch straight to the chest. But Sonic quickly recovered, and managed to punch back at Goku to stagger him, though the attack significantly less effective then his prior attacks. Quickly picking up speed, Sonic let his Super Aura burn brightly as he engaged Goku in a light speed rush of attacks, the two darting across the sky as golden streaks of light.
Those streaks of light then descended back down into Green Hill, where they began tearing through mountains and ripping up the ground as they both quite literally tore up the zone while slamming into each other. In those streaks of light, Sonic delivered a flying kick to Goku’s face that staggered him before Goku quickly recovered and flew forwards, hitting Sonic with an equally heavy punch that launched him miles underground. But Super Sonic could not be deterred so easily, and he launched back upwards through the ground with a spin-dash that slammed straight into Goku’s stomach, sending both himself and the Saiyan Warrior hurling higher and higher into the stratosphere.
Goku broke out of the attack with a Spirit Shot, releasing a pulse of ki from around himself to blow Sonic back before the two of them flew forwards and clashed with each other shoulder to shoulder, golden auras emanating from them both as they pushed harder against each other. Sparks of lightning crackled as explosive bursts of Chaos Energy and Ki began swelling up between the two of them. Both fighters broke away and charged up big punches that clashed…
And reality shattered like glass around them. Still undeterred, Sonic swiftly evaded a series of kicks from Goku before Goku managed to punch him in the gut and get behind him, then fired off a ki blast to send Sonic flying downwards. Charging after him, Goku delivered a heavy kick to Sonic that launched them out of the tear in reality, and in a flash the two fighters appeared in a large city. Sonic quickly broke himself free from Goku’s attack and kicked Goku back before flying back to put some distance between them as Goku gave chase. Getting into a mid-air running man stance, Sonic charged up a Super Spin Dash and launched forwards, hitting Goku square on and sending the Super Saiyan 4 flying backwards.
But Goku doesn’t hit a building like Sonic had expected him to, rather he landed in the path of another Goku, and the two of them crashed into each other. The other Goku, in his normal Blue Gi and with Blue Hair, looked over at his Super Saiyan 4 counterpart in surprise.
Goku (DBS): Woah…
Superman: This stops here!
Suddenly, Superman flew in from the side and tackled the Goku he had been fighting, further surprising the time patroller Goku as he followed the two off into the distance, catching him off guard just enough for Super Sonic to fly up and punch him hard enough to shatter reality again and send them flying backwards into the shatterspace tear in reality.
Catching himself and powering up, Goku charged in and put the brunt of his Super Saiyan 4 power into a charge attack that managed to stagger Super Sonic before Goku unleashed a heavy punch straight to Sonic’s stomach, but Sonic just chuckled as he curled up into a Spin-Dash and began grinding directly onto Goku’s chest before leaping back and dealing a Grand Slam kick that shattered them out of the reality tear, sending Goku flying outwards into outer space.
As Sonic pressed his edge and began to rapid attack Goku with a flurry of attacks, the two were suddenly hit by a shockwave from the collision of another Sonic in his Hyper Form fighting Mario, who had managed to rupture the moon behind them with their clash, only for both of them to revert to their base forms.
Sonic (Game): Oh shoot...
Mario: Oh, mamma mia…
As the two other fighters began to fall back towards the Earth, Goku quickly took his chance to punch Super Sonic towards the shattered moon behind them with a Super God Fist, then flying after him to start charging up a final attack to take Super Sonic down for good, a bright red beam of ki pulsing to life in his hands.
Goku: Alright Sonic, let’s see how you survive this. Times Ten KAMEHAMEHA!
Firing out the 10x Kamehameha, the attack soared through space at incredible speeds as it flew towards the wreckage of the moon, and Super Sonic looked up at it in awe. Holding his hands out, Super Sonic braced himself and managed to catch the 10x Kamehameha in his hands, despite the residual energy of the blast still spilling out into the space around him. As his quills flapped from the force of the blast, Sonic focused all of his Chaos Energy together and began to push back against Goku’s attack.
Sonic: CHAOS CONTROL!
A bright flash of light emanates from Sonic’s hands suddenly as he casts Chaos Control, and in a bright flash of light Sonic pauses as he stops to look around. Goku’s Kamehameha has been destroyed, but now the damaged moon has been restored back to normal, and Goku himself is still off in the distance. Stretching his arms and legs slightly, Sonic prepared to launch himself off of the moon when he noticed a golden light shining in the distance flying in the distance that managed to crash and land on the moon.
Surprised, Sonic floated over to the crater formed from the crash and waved his hand to clear the dust away, and blinked in surprise at what he saw, a fellow golden Hedgehog that he recognized as a certain time traveler.
Sonic: Silver!?
Silver: Sonic!? What are you doing here!?
Sonic: Time crimes, apparently. You?
Silver: Huh, me too…small timeline.
In the distance, Goku stared at the repaired moon in confusion as he watched another golden blur fly by him and crash into the moon, and as he turned around to look backwards he let out a slightly surprised gasp as he saw his fellow time patroller flying over.
Trunks: Goku!? What are you doing here?
Goku: I got dragged here by a golden Hedgehog.
Trunks: Weird. So did I.
(Queue Hedge of Tommorow - Brandon Yates)
Suddenly, the two Saiyan’s turned around as the Moon began glowing with a green aura before exploding, sending rubble flying out into space as two golden lights shone in the middle of all the destruction.
Trunks: Ah, crapbaskets.
Trunks, quickly transforming into a Super Saiyan God, charged ahead together with Goku as the two charged through the ruined rubble of the moon as Super Sonic and Super Silver flew down to meet them, Silver throwing pieces of the moon down at the two Saiyans as Sonic dashed around in a Wild Rush before kicking Trunks down and turning to kick Goku, only for Trunks to fly back over and slash Sonic back with his sword. Suddenly, Silver stuck his hand out and grabbed Goku with his psychokinesis, holding him in place before throwing him backwards and slamming him into Trunks.
Quickly powering up to overpower SIlver’s aura, Goku ducked past a few rocks and punched the psychic Hedgehog in the face before kicking him into a chunk of space debris as he charges up and fires a consecutive energy barrage which rips through the air and forces Sonic into a dodging position, giving Trunks a chance to join him in the liberal use of Vegeta’s Technique, but Silver quickly caught the incoming spam of ki blasts, raising his hands and bending them around so they would fly back at Goku and Trunks while Super Sonic flew along with the ki blasts and rammed straight into Goku with a spin-dash, then kicking him back and grabbing two of the ki blasts Silver had redirected to throw at Trunks and shatter his sword.
Trunks quickly raised his arms to block an incoming kick, but Goku landed a hard hitting punch to Sonic’s gut and beat the golden Hedgehog back before looking over to Trunks.
Goku: Trunks, let’s do this!
Trunks: Right, I’m with you!
The two Saiyan’s took off in trails of gold and red, Goku delivering another strong punch to Super Sonic before kicking him upwards and passing him onto Trunks, who dealt a swinging kick that knocked Sonic away. Quickly, the two broke off and swirled around into the distance, appearing back to back as they charged up their signature techniques together.
Trunks: GALICK GUN!!!
Goku: KAMEHAMEHA!!!
Firing out the combined Galick Kamehameha, the attack ripped and soared across space aimed straight at Sonic. As the golden hedgehog gasped at the titanic beam that threatens to overshadow him however, Silver suddenly appeared in front of him and let out a yell of exertion as he created a big shield with his psychic powers, deflecting the Galick Kamehameha for a moment.
SIlver: Ngh! Sonic!
Sonic: Heh, thanks Silver!
As Sonic prepared to charge forwards, he blinked slightly when Silver reached a hand out, grabbing Sonic’s arm and covering his fellow Hedgehog in both his ESP Aura, and passing onto him some excess energy.
Silver: Here, I have energy to spare. I know it doesn’t make up for all the times I’ve been a pain, but…
Sonic: Don’t sweat it Silver, we’re cool. Just gimme a boost.
Silver: …good luck Sonic.
With one last mighty yell, Silver put all his strength into throwing Sonic forwards, and Super Sonic’s aura exploded to life in a bright golden rocket of energy as Super Sonic charged straight through the Galick Kamehameha with a powerful Boost, enough for him to become an Arrow of Light as he reached one hand out as he arrived at Goku and Trunks, then smirked as he grabbed Goku by the neck and continued to fly forwards, slamming him to through space debris and through the vacuum of space.
Sonic: Funny we should meet like this again!
Goku: You-!?
All of a sudden, the power Super Sonic exuded began to cause ripples along his flight path, before he raised a hand and punched Goku so hard the resulting shockwave shattered the reality around them.
(Queue Wishing Upon the Chaos Emeralds - Sonic the Hedgehog)
Suddenly screeching to a halt, Super Sonic looked around and gasped to see he was in a dark void, vacant of life, space, or anything else. Nothing but rifts and prisms peeking into other realities. He could see other versions of himself, fighting Scourge, Naugus, Eggman, and even enemies he’d seen before like an Electrically charged Tenrec, a Chaos Council of Eggmen, and mighty skyscraper sized titans. He could also seek other Goku’s, fighting a hero from the 11th Universe, a malevolent Shadow Dragon, and the Legendary Super Saiyan. The further he looked, he could see universes like Mega Man’s, fighting for everlasting peace, and even other worlds where his friends were encountering strange enemies like he was now.
Shadow, fighting a psychic lab experiment and a girl with a scissor blade, Amy fighting another girl with a hammer, Metal Sonic fighting the robot master Zero, even a different version of himself fighting the red plumber from earlier alongside Tails against a second Plumber, this one clad in green instead of red.
Sonic: What…is this?
Goku: This is the void between realities. The crack of time.
Sonic turned around as Goku floated down to meet him, the Saiyan Warrior revealing an orb of ki in his hand glowing with a bright blue and white aura; the Spirit Bomb. Not the massive kind he had used many times before, but the smaller compact one he had used against Vegeta, Turles, and Slug.
Goku: And you’re a danger to it all. You wield power with reckless abandon, shattering dimensions, destroying universes, rewriting realities. You are the greatest threat to existence the multiverse…no, the Omniverse has ever seen. An improbable embodiment of Chaos like you is too dangerous to be left alive, and this fight confirms it.
Drawing his hand back, Goku threw the Spirit Bomb forwards at Sonic, and the ki bomb suddenly exploded in his face, engulfing Sonic in a bright light of white as he’s consumed by the explosion…
Goku: At least rest peacefully.
…
“A danger to reality…? He’s gotta be joking…”
“But, what if he’s right? I mean, Eggman and Mogul both thought the same thing…”
…
“...oh, who am I kidding? Letting what these jokers think of me get to me like that.”
Suddenly, a swirl of Chaos Energy began to come together before erupting in a golden light as Super Sonic overpowered the energy of the spirit bomb and absorbed it into his body, amplifying his golden aura as he looked across at Goku with a scoff, and a glare in his eyes.
Sonic: Oh, gimme a break! Egghead does an oopsie with the Genesis Wave and I’M the bad guy!? I might be an embodiment of Chaos, but I think you’re the bad guy here, you stuck up jerk!
Goku stares as Sonic with a deadpan look before giving a gruff sigh and powering up further, his red fur tinting magenta and his black hair turning red, as he became a Fully Powered Super Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker.
Goku: I’ll make this quick. You can’t beat a Limit Broken Super Saiyan 4.
(Queue Undefeatable - Sonic Frontiers)
Sonic: Heh. I hope that’s your final form Goku…BECAUSE I GOT YOUR LIMIT, RIGHT HERE!!!!!
A macro-second is all it takes for Sonic and Goku to clash, with one swing of their fists a shockwave is rendered that reaches across not just the boundless void they’re fighting in, but across all realities. Those attuned with Ki or the Chaos Force across time and space looked to the sky as it began to shatter like glass, shockwaves rupturing the boundaries of existence itself from the results of the two warriors clashing.
Shockwave after shockwave begins to ring out as the two throw attacks beyond the light speed at each other, Super Sonic beating back Goku’s powerful assault by simply throwing attacks faster than Goku could process, dealing several instantaneous attacks to Goku’s chest before going defensive and blocking the furious series of kicks, and then spin-dashing around to avoid another punch before he throws a fist of his own that becomes enveloped in Chaos Energy that releasing golden bolts of lighting as he punches Goku back.
Goku, of course, recovers quickly and spins his arms around, deflecting another incoming punch from Sonic before he spins around and kicks him in the face, launching Sonic downwards with a second kick before he flies upwards and unleashes a series of ki blasts downwards with the Stardust Fall, but Super Sonic just starts deflecting the ki blasts with casual waves of his hand before boosting through the remaining blasts, ripping through the space of the void and causing the Special Zone to start merging in with the void.
Goku: What-!?
The second Goku got caught off guard by noticing the breaking of reality, he was intercepted by a powerful headbutt to the gut, causing him to spit out blood before he quickly started parrying Sonic’s incoming attacks with a flurry of jabs and kicks, pushing his body to the very brink of his limits in order to keep up with Sonic’s sheer speed. Every clash shook the void, and more and more bits of the special zone began to seep into the void, and as Goku blocked one punch in particular he gasped when he saw the crack of time peeking through the one the ripples caused by their fighting.
Goku: I have to put an end to this, now!
Leading Sonic in closer, Goku dealt a powerful punch to Sonic’s face before drawing his leg back and unleashing a flurry of kicks with his Meteor Combination, finishing the barrage by punching him in the gut and leaping upwards to then fire a Kamehameha below him, pushing Sonic downwards as the golden Hedgehog started firing bolts of chaos energy from his hands all around, and Goku took off to start dodging them while firing back to counter the attacks, looping around as he got in close to Sonic to go in for a powerful Meteor Smash.
In a flash however, Sonic intercepted the attack by parrying Goku’s fists with a kick, then spinning around and using his other leg to kick Goku square in the face. His attacks were too instant, there was no room for error, no room to parry the attacks, no room to counterattack. In a blinding golden light, Super Sonic slams into Goku and begins barraging the Time Patroller with a series of lightspeed punches before kicking him backwards, charging a spin-dash up before he let loose, flying forwards and kicking him in the back to send him upwards before flying above him, smashing him back downwards.
As Super Sonic picked up his pace and continued to wail on Goku with a series of slugging punches, Goku struggled to block as the truth began racing through his mind. There was no end to Sonic the Hedgehog’s speed. He was right, just like he’d said before. He was too slow to keep up with the Fastest Thing Alive. And that speed, combined with his unpredictable nature as an embodiment of Chaos, made him an impossible foe to beat. Only now, in the heat of Sonic’s unstoppable barrage, did Goku understand why nobody had beaten this damn Hedgehog before.
Well, he would change that.
Sticking his hand out, Goku pointed two fingers at Sonic’s chest before delivering a one-inch punch to Sonic’s chest that recoiled and rippled throughout the void, giving Goku the chance to use his Super Dragon Attack Fist rush attack, spinning around and dealing two quick but powerful consecutive punches to face before following it up with an uppercut, then drawing his leg back to kick Sonic away and punching a shockwave at him to finish the combo. Quickly, Goku then raised two fingers to use Instant Transmission, warping behind Sonic to get in an overhead attack.
But it was too slow, as an elbow suddenly lodged itself into Goku’s gut as Sonic spun around to charge up and spin-dash into him before flipping over and kicking Goku over the head with his Sonic Eagle kick yet again, and then following that up with the roundhouse kick from his Sonic Rocket. Charging up and further pressuring Goku, Sonic unleashed a super Phantom Rush onto Goku to barrage him with attacks from all angles before performing a looping Cyclope Kick to shatter Goku’s ribcage with one final attack.
But Sonic wasn’t done yet, as he unleashed an explosive charge of chaos energy around his body as he then charged ahead at Goku, rushing up to his Saiyan opponent to deliver a meaty punch to his gut, then following it up by dealing a second punch that knocked him further away. Flying after Goku and drawing his fist back, Sonic dealt a final strike to his gut again with a third, more devastating punch before quickly performing a backflip-kick to knock Goku upwards before raising his arms upwards and unleashing an explosive tower of golden chaos energy onto Goku that sent the Saiyan warrior flying away.
As his pupils dilated from a combination of rage, anger, and focus, Goku drew his hands back and began charging up a godly final Kamehameha to end things once and for all.
Goku: TIMES TEN-!!!!!!!
At the same time, a titanic roar escaped from Sonic’s lungs as his body seemed to revert back to his base form, but a golden atomic sigil and glowing black surrounded his body. He had instead transformed into Ultra Sonic, and with that he’d rocketed away from Goku, flying across the corrupted Time Rift-Special Zone to put some distance between them as he circled around Goku, preparing one final charge.
Goku: KAMEHAME-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Firing out the Times Ten God Kamehameha, the crimson red beam flew straight through the space forwards aiming to destroy Ultra Sonic, but the invincible chaotic Hedgehog took Goku’s challenge head on as he flew forwards and began flying straight through the Godly Kamehameha, erasing the beam down to its atomic structure as he charged straight head towards Goku.
But that was exactly what Goku had anticipated, as he started flying forwards drew one fist backwards before throwing it outwards, and a golden dragon in the shape of the mighty Shenron took form, roaring titanically as it charged upwards at Ultra Sonic along with Goku, representing the pinnacle of the Saiyan’s strength, for if he didn’t finish this, who else would?
Goku: DRAGON FIST, EXPLOSION!!!!!!!!
As Ultra Sonic flew straight down at top speed to meet the fiery Ki Dragon head on, he drew his fist back and let it swirl with the energy of the Chaos Emeralds, creating a chaos energy aura in his hands flickering with the seven colors of all Seven Emeralds. An attack that carried the hopes and dreams of all of his friends that he would use to finish everything once and for all that he screamed out at the top of his lungs.
Sonic: CHAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOS CONTROOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And with that, Ultra Sonic broke through the Dragon Fist as an Arrow of Chaos, flying through the force of the Ki Dragon as he threw his final punch, casting Chaos Control to explode outwards at his fist made a direct impact with Goku’s chest, and Sonic screamed out one final time…
As his fist ruptured Goku’s chest, obliterating the Saiyan’s chest and ripping a hole clean through to the other side as Ultra Sonic flew past him. Goku spat out a cough of blood, but that was nothing to the explosion of blood that had just fired out of his back. But even that was the least of his worries, as Goku’s eyes widened as, for a split second, his consciousness remained in what he saw was not just a dying body, but a fading one…
His very existence was just broken, as was the boundary they’d been fighting in, all but one, final punch.
In that split second, Goku felt the surging pain of death, and yet no release. A paradox, for his death had shattered his concept of existence, and yet for that to happen he’d need to have existed. And so, as his body dimmed a dull gray while his consciousness, his body began to further crack and shatter…
And then, the broken body dissolved into specks of white space dust, scattering across a void that itself was beginning to collapse in on itself. Son Goku had died, his very life broken down to the concept of existence, and destroyed from its root.
There was nothing left of him.
The fight was over…
(Queue Theme of Starfall Islands - Sonic Frontiers)
As Ultra Sonic’s power faded, Sonic himself let out a tiring sigh as his body began to drift down through the broken, shattered special zone void, the space between multiverses beginning to collapse under the pressure of the now concluded battle. In any other case, Sonic could have hitched a ride on the cosmic interstate to run out, teleported with Chaos Control, or just flown out as Super Sonic.
But not this time. He was too tired. Exhausted from such a long, tiring battle, Sonic’s body flew downwards through the void, drifting in and out of consciousness as he struggled to form coherent thoughts. And yet, one stuck out in mind, that he just barely managed to vocalize.
Sonic: Ha...what a…way past cool…fight.
As he body continued to drift through the collapsing, dying pocket of space, Sonic briefly opened his eyes to see the universes connected to the void beginning to collapse in on themselves, the special zone itself being swallowed away as the space, the reality itself, began to shatter, break away, and die…
Sonic’s eyes closed, and his body was too swallowed by the darkness.
…
…
…
…
There was a sudden feeling of wind, blowing in his quills, and-
THUD!
…A sudden feeling of drift in his face, apparently.
Placing two hands on what appeared to be solid ground, Sonic pushed his face out of the dirt that he had landed in and looked upwards, looking around to see a sunset sky, and a place he generally didn’t recognize, ruins of a collapsing castle around him. A smirk soon formed on Sonic’s face as he began stretching his limbs.
Another adventure had just begun, and he had lived to keep on running another day.
Conclusion[]
(Queue Ultrasonic (Instrumental) - Brandon Yates)
Boomstick: Oh bullshit! Goku is above the laws of laws, concepts, and fictio- hahahahaha! Oh, I’m sorry Wiz, I couldn’t say that with a straight face, but I had to try.
Wiz: I completely understand. In what actually matters though, this was a fairly close matchup, and Xeno Goku could have taken a win in many different scenarios. But in the end, Archie Sonic had several specific counters that edged out a win more times than not.
Boomstick: Obvious one out of the way first, Sonic was way, WAY faster than Goku! Goku might’ve made that trip to hell in seconds and could be hundreds of septillions of times faster than light as a Super Saiyan Four Limit Breaker, but it didn’t matter. Goku just didn’t have a way to reliably land hits on Sonic, the Blue Bastard was just too damn fast!
[Note: Ultra Instinct Sign Goku’s Ki was able to shake the Null Realm, which is a realm said to be without time and infinite in space, but those terms may have simply been hyperbolic. If the Null Realm really had no time, time in the tournament of power would not have passed to begin with, but time during the TOP instead passes in a dilated perspective, so the claim it’s infinite in size is likely similarly exaggerated for perspective.]
Wiz: While there are seemingly moments of Xenoverse characters like Xeno Goku or Trunks having immeasurable speed, there’s a distinct difference between immeasurable and infinite. Something being immeasurable does not make it infinite, but in contrast, something infinite is inherently immeasurable. While we may not be able to put a limit on Xeno Goku’s speed, Ki is still finite, and everyone, even Xeno Goku, has a limit to how fast or strong they can become.
Boomstick: In contrast, Archie Sonic is literally so fast that he can literally outrun time itself. So sure, Goku might’ve been a way better fighter than Sonic, with a more versatile moveset of abilities, but when he was literally too damn slow to land any of his attacks, that wasn’t much of an advantage.
Wiz: But to really find out who won, we had to really analyze the upper limits of their power. While Xeno Goku could dubiously match fighters like Hearts, Fuu, Demigra, or Mechikabura, none of these quite reach the level of Archie Sonic’s greatest showings of power. While it’s true some of them had reached a level of power able to destroy or absorb all of Dragon Ball’s infinite timelines and multiverses, Xeno Goku himself has never directly won a 1v1 against any of these characters, they’re usually either defeated by a Fusion or someone else.
Boomstick: Hell, Xeno Goku isn’t even the strongest Time Patroller in Heroes, he’s usually upstaged by either God Trunks or Fake Dragon Ball Super Goku, and he’s definitely not at that level of power, while Trunks could only reach it with the Key Sword.
[Note: While the Key Sword is not standard arsenal for Xeno Goku, even if he did have it, it’s unlikely he could win with it. Aside from being too slow to land a hit with it, Super Sonic resisted the Super Genesis Wave’s similar effects at ground zero, and Enerjak similarly resisted an Egg Grape Chamber’s power nullification via possession of a Chaos Emerald.]
Wiz: In contrast, Chaos Magic wielded by a Super Hedgehog like Super Sonic could do things the characters of Dragon Ball Heroes could only dream of, like completely rewriting the entire infinite multiverse in seconds and resisting the Super Genesis Wave at ground zero, something similar to Mechikabura’s own power, but the difference being Super Sonic was completely unharmed while Xeno Goku could only barely keep up with it. He’s actually been defeated by these kinds of threats a lot more often than you’d think.
Boomstick: Cumber? Beaten by Ultra Instinct Goku. Mechikabura? Beaten by Trunks with the Key Sword. Dark King Fuu? Defeated by Universe Tree-Amped Ultra Instinct Goku. Time Power Unleashed Demigra? Beaten by UI Goku, Super Saiyan 2 Future Gohan, and Super Saiyan 4 Bardock. And none of those guys reach the level of Second Super Genesis Wave.
Wiz: Remember, the Second Super Genesis Wave used the power of all Seven Chaos Emeralds, just like Super Sonic, and successfully destroyed and rewrote the infinite timelines in Archie Sonic's multiverse, plus the extradimensional realms outside, like the Chaos Force, Special Zones, Mega Man's own separate infinite multiverse, and even more parallel worlds like the world of Sonic X, Sabrina the Teenage Witch-
Boomstick: And Spawn! Super Sonic was able to perfectly reset the multiverse once, and the second time when Eggman messed him up, he accidentally erased guys just as strong as him like Enerjak, Scourge, and Mammoth Mogul!
Wiz: The simple fact is, the scope and scale of Dragon Ball’s cosmology just isn’t comparable. And that isn’t even getting into Ultra Sonic, who was not only stronger than Super Sonic, but his Atomic Manipulation could not only stop any Ki attacks sent his way, but actually manipulate the S-Cells in Goku’s body, something a Power Ring could clue him in on, and allow him to cut Goku’s power level in half or even straight up disable Super Saiyan.
Boomstick: Wow, so not only are S-Cells the stupidest thing ever, they’re also the lamest way Goku could lose this fight. Ugh! Well anyways, I’m sure some of you are asking if Goku could just override Sonic’s reality warping fuckery by boosting his power level, and the answer to that is a big fat no. We’ve already established he’s way weaker than Super Sonic, so if he tried that it’d probably just end up in him dying anyways.
[Note: Even giving Xeno Goku the extreme benefit of the doubt and assuming he could reach infinite power and speed, Archie Sonic would still radically outhax him and has more experience fighting at these levels of power, and still have more options for dealing with Goku’s more blunt offensive options.]
Wiz: Xeno Goku may have been most certainly stronger when comparing just their baser abilities, and there are many versions of this fight where Goku comes out on top, but in the end, Xeno Goku just lacked the speed, power, and abilities needed to stand up to Archie’s Sonic the Hedgehog.
Boomstick: I’m just Saiyan that Goku really stood Xeno-chance.
Wiz: The Winner is Archie Sonic.
