Description[]
Martial arts are the key to becoming a great fighter. But these two take their skills to the next level! Who will win in this battle of ways of the hand? Will Iron Fist burn Yamcha with the fist of the dragon? Or will Yamcha tear Danny with the palm of the wolf?
Interlude[]
Wiz: Chop, jab, strike, palm. All fundamentals in the art of fighting.
Boomstick: Ow, that hurt.
Wiz: Iron Fist, Marvel’s Wielder of the Iron Fist.
Boomstick: Yamcha, Dragon Ball’s local die-hard martial artist.
Wiz: What matters about martial arts isn’t the art itself, but the user of it.
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 in a...Death Battle.
Iron Fist channels his chi in DEATH BATTLE![]
Wiz: Years ago, the son of the businessman Wendell Rand was born from Heather Duncan. Wendell once lived in another dimensional realm called K’un Lun, and wished to return there one day.
Boomstick: So, when Daniel hit the age of 9, his father went out to return there. He went to Tibet to find the nexus to get there.
Wiz: After a treacherous journey tho, Wendell dangled over the side of a mountain drop, and asked for help from his companion, but instead, his companion caused him to fall to his demise. And when Dan and his mother attempted to get back to their camp, a pack of wolves appeared, and took Heather’s life. So, the people of K’un Lun took rescued Danny and took him to the martial arts master, Lei Kung the Thunderer.
Boomstick: And good ol’ Danny boy went through it! His training was harsh and rigorous, but the result paid off. He had to practically thrust his hands into hot sand and other hard and rough materials, and that later turned him into-
Wiz: The Iron Fist. After defeating a dragon by the name of Shou-Lao the Undying, and won, giving him the new title. So, Danny returned to America after refusing to stay in the nexus to get vengeance on Meachum, his father’s killer. But instead of killing him when he found him, Danny spared him out of pity, but, a ninja murdered Meachum. Not only that, but he was also blamed for the murder of Meachum’s daughter.
Boomstick: But, good ol’ Danny cleared up his name and found the ninja as well. A bunch of other stuff happened and Danny became a crime fighter, and after some events, he met Luke Cage, one of the coolest heroes ever hell yeah!
Wiz: But what even does the title of Iron Fist give one you may ask? Well, it is quite versatile actually! The main thing to understand is chi, the fundemental to Danny’s powers. This mystical energy has many uses, and due to Danny’s experience, he has found many different ways to use it like…
Boomstick: Being able to heal himself from injuries, or even heal others from it! Hell, one time it was even automatic! You would think it would drain him, but he’s practiced it enough for it to not only not drain him, but also him being able to heal from it without a single thought!
Wiz: The chi can also prevent him from feeling pain as well, allowing him to have incredible endurance. Said chi can also help boost his stamina as well. He can read other people’s chi, and even absorb it as well, and even absorb energy attacks in general.
Boomstick: Danny can also use it to increase his strength by a large margin, allowing him to fight foes that most people usually couldn’t and survive things most people wouldn’t!
Wiz: For example, in Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, displayed the same durability as people like Thor, who could survive attacks from Galactus, who can emit a force 593.27 Ronnatons of TNT!
Boomstick: Damn, that’s a lot of tons. Well, Danny can the…well, Iron Fist! By channeling the energy derived from the heart of the dragon he defeated to get the Iron Fist, Danny can increase the strength of his fists by a huge margin! This can allow him to knock some heavy hitters, like Collosus! But don’t tell him to fist you..you sicko.
Wiz: Huh? Anyways, even without that, Danny has been stated to be the strongest Iron Fist before. What does this mean exactly? Well, it means that Danny is stronger Fongji Wu, who was capable of defeating the-
Boomstick: PHOENIX FORCE?!? Damn, show off.
Wiz: This could be interpreted in a lot of ways, but the most you could take it as is Danny being able to rival beings like the Phoenix Force at max, who is capable of being a threat to the whole multiverse! It even exists outside the omniverse, which means it probably exists beyond all dimensional planes as well!
Boomstick: Danny can even match up to speed with the web-slinging menace himself, Spider-Man!
Spider-Man himself has been capable of matching Thor in speed.
Thor has been shown to be able to travel across the universe before. The speed at which he traveled was…
Wiz: Immeasurable speed due to the sheer size of the Marvel universes! But, that isn’t even all of Danny’s abilities.
Boomstick: He has been able to do what is called Mind Melding! Mind Melding is when Danny temporarily fuses his mind with someone else, gaining emotions, knowledge, and all memories from them!
He can also use his chi based powers to project his own thoughts onto others! He can locate and target people’s pressure points, and even has a technique called the Black-Black Poison Touch, which is when Danny uses his chi to kill everyone around him!
Wiz: Or he can use his abilities to create chi blasts for long distance attacks. But, Danny’s chi powers aren’t just his only gimmick, he also is an incredible fighter!
Boomstick: Danny has been shown to keep up with some of Marvel’s best martial artists, such as Shang Chi, or Captain America, who beat the world’s BEST martial artist!
Wiz: But even with all these incredible abilities, Danny is still a human at heart. Despite being an Immortal Weapon, Danny is far from a weapon personality wise. With his power comes the duty of holding up the title, and the burden as well.
Boomstick: But, Danny was chosen for a reason. Not just because of his strength, but because of his determination.
Yamcha concentrates his ki in DEATH BATTLE![]
Wiz: In the Diablo Desert, there lived a 16 year old bandit named Yamcha, and his anthropomorphic cat named Puar. Yamcha was a bandit who robbed anyone who passed through the desert.
Boomstick: One fateful day however, Yamcha encountered Goku, Bulma, and Oolong, attempting to rob them by stealing their money and capsules. Yamcha even almost defeated Goku! But…he ran away at the sight of Bulma, due to his fear of women.
Wiz: Yamcha later attempted to steal the dragons balls after finding out about it, but failed. Tho, he did manage to wreck their van. He later “apologized” and gave them a car, which of course had a tracking device in it.
Boomstick: But after some adventures and what not, Yamcha finally joined the team, and explained his irrational behavior to Bulma as being “madly in love with her”. So, after a few years, the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament begins, and Yamcha trains himself to kick ass! Or get his ass kicked! You’ll never know!
Wiz: Yamcha made it far, but was defeated by Master Roshi, who went by the disguise of Jackie Chun. But how did he get so far you may ask? Well, he used his many techniques he has been honing for years!
Boomstick: Yamcha uses ki, the basic form of power in Dragon Ball! Ki is made up of three components, Genki aka Energy, Yūki aka Courage, and Shōki aka Mind. Ki is considered fighting energy, but most importantly, life force…which is mainly used in combat. Yamcha can do the basics like fly, use ki blasts, and sense the ki of others. With that, comes Yamcha’s own spin on his usage of ki! He centers the key around being an alpha omega pack leader wolf AWOOOOO!
Wiz: I hate you with a burning passion.
Boomstick: Thanks! Anyways, these attacks usually have wolf or something relating to the wolf in their names. The general category for these is called the Wolf Fang Fist! His combos have him punching and clawing before ending it with a double palm strike, launching his opponents! It also creates a wolf like aura around him as well.
Wiz: And unlike other ki based techniques, Yamcha doesn’t lose ki from this, but rather, it simply makes his attacks even more powerful! He has used his abilities against foes many times, one of which was Tien, who eventually became friends with him and they joined forces with the other Z-Fighters to defend the universe on multiple occasions.
Boomstick: Some of his Wolf Fang Fist techniques include but are not limited to:
- Blinding Wolf Fang Fist
- Neo Wolf Fang Fist
- Wolf Fang Pitching Fist Ball
Wiz: Oh yeah, forgot to mention that Yamcha is also a baseball player, and really good at it too!
Boomstick: Those damn college days…
Wiz: Anyways, Yamcha also has learned the Kamehameha, the most iconic attack in Dragon Ball history. By concentrating large amounts ki in the middle of his hands, Yamcha can release a long and large blast of energy.
Boomstick: Yamcha also can use the Spirit Ball, which can be guided using his index and middle fingers. It can hit the opponent multiple times from many different angles before the last strike, which causes it to explode! Kaboom! He can make an even stronger version of it called the Super Spirit Ball!
Wiz: With all this, Yamcha throughout the series has displayed the ability to fight on par with incredibly stronger characters. For example, he was capable of defeating a Saibaman. Saibamen are stated to be equal to Raditz in power.
Boomstick: Going by Raditz’s fight with Gohan, the Saibamen would be around 59.44 Zettatons of TNT! This means Yamcha matched and even outdid that in strength!
Wiz: Yamcha can also read the ki signatures of others, allowing him to know their power levels. And in Xenoverse, he can even further strengthen his power even further by double and he gains a red aura. Or if he wants to, he can eat a Senzu Bean to go back to his prime body.
Boomstick: Yamcha is also able to match Goku and possibly even best him in baseball strength wise due to defeating someone who could defeat Goku even while in Super Saiyan Blue! Of course tho, Yamcha did it in his favorite sport, basebal! The Taitans baby! It’s all about the Taitans!
Wiz: This would mean that Yamcha is possibly immeasurable in speed due to outspeeding someone who could defeat Goku, who can move in a void where time doesn’t even exist, or even be able to move while time is completely stopped.
Boomstick: But, not only that, but Goku was also able to match the god of destruction, Beerus! The clash they had threatened the universe itself!
Wiz: Said universe contains five dimensions, meaning Goku can affect things up to the 5th dimension. So, if Yamcha can match Goku in that in power, he would be able to reach 5D levels of strength too.
Boomstick: But, even with all this strength, Yamcha has an…interesting reputation to say the least. Throughout the series, Yamcha has faced multiple sad demises, essentially becoming the resident punching bag for a good part of the series.
Wiz: His original death was him dying to the exact thing he just defeated, a Saibaman. After being surprised attack, the Saibaman self destructed, killing Yamcha in the process. This is where his iconic death comes from.
He also dies later to Kid Buu turning him into chocolate. And again when Android 17 killed him by blasting a hole through his chest.
Boomstick: Yamcha’s first and iconic death has made him quite the joke throughout the community, and across the internet in general. But is he really?
Wiz: Well, not really. Yamcha has proven his courage and determination many times before. He has demonstrated his talents and abilities to be quite powerful in the right circumstances and fights alongside some of the multiverse’s strongest fighters in an effort to protect the world. A true hero isn’t defined by their defeats or feats, but rather by their choice to keep fighting even in the darkest of situations. That’s why Yamcha is a true hero.
Pre-Fight[]
The sun peeks over the city’s landscape as a crowd is heard cheering. The sun light bounces off of the metal surrounding the arena, as the crowd’s cheers intensify. From the arena, the announcer’s voice can be heard.
“Today folks, we have a doozy! Today’s battle will be between two very skilled martial artists! First up, we have the man of iron, with the fist of the dragon, introducing…IRON FIST!”
From the shadows emerge Iron Fist, hands glowing from his chi. His smile being almost non existent on his face.
“And on the other side, we have the bandit of the wilderness, with the claws of a wolf, introducing…YAMCHA!”
Yamcha emerges from the shadow by jumping in the air. He then does a flip and lands on the ground. He puts his left hand in a claw like position while his right is beside his head. His smirk gives off the vibe of cockiness and honest confidence.
“Show me a good time!” says Yamcha, his smirk turning into a smile.
Danny responds with his fist ready
“I’ll try my best, Yamcha. May the greatest fighter win!”
The announcer presents himself.
“My name is Drench H. Wile, and I’m going to be your announcer for today! Now, let me set the basic rules! Of course, any form of physical contact is allowed, and projectiles are too. You can make your attacks as lethal and fatal as possible, destroy as much of the arena as you want! We have a very cool barrier around the stadium or whatever you wanna call it, arena, stadium, field, doesn’t matter! The field we have around you guys makes it impossible to hurt the audience and the outside world, so go wild! Oh, and killing is completely permitted, remember that too! Other than that, let the fight begin in three…two…one…FIGHT!”
Fight[]
Danny, the Iron Fist, slides towards Yamcha and goes for a punch. Yamcha catches the punch and attempts to grab Danny, but it fails as both jump away from each other.
Yamcha and Danny get back in their stances as the crowd cheers on still. Yamcha punches Danny in the shoulder before clawing him, just barely tho. Yamcha finishes the combo with a Neo Wolf Fang Fist, hitting Danny in the face, launching him across the arena.
Danny lays on the ground, injured.
“You got a strong aura to your attacks, I like that. I can sense your aura, it is strong, like the leader of a pack of wolves.”
Yamcha smiles as he responds.
“Yeah, that’s intentional! I can sense your aura as well, but I can’t quite make out the shape of it, but you are strong, so stand proud!”
Danny gets off the ground and kicks Yamcha in the face before hitting him with multiple kicks in the chest. Yamcha tries to block the kicks, but Danny keeps hitting him in the face and knocking away Yamcha’s attempts to guard himself. Yamcha finally gets to escape the barrage, and counters Danny’s kick with his own, causing the stadium to vibrate.
Danny backs up as he smirks.
“Good kick! But you seemed a little off balance. Try to find an equilibrium between your legs, core, and power for more deadly ones.”
Danny then kicks Yamcha in the ribs as he goes for a roundhouse kick to the head, but Yamcha ducks and goes for a palm to Danny’s stomach. Danny grunts as he goes for a sweep instead, but Yamcha jumps and tries to crane kick only for it to be dodged. Yamcha’s eyes widen in surprise as he gets back into stance. Yamcha’s smile widens as he talks.
“I like how you fight, Iron Fist.”
Danny looks at Yamcha with focus.
“You can call me Danny if you want. It makes communication between us much easier.”
Yamcha process to hold his hands on the right side of his body. Danny looks at it him in confusion for a split second before realizing what Yamcha is doing. The energy around the palms of his hands build up until they form a large blue ball. Danny readies himself as he focuses in on the energy output from the attack being built up. He starts to internally monologue.
“Focus Danny, focus. Concentrate on him, not the energy. That chi is not the threat, he is.”
Yamcha finally releases the Kamehameha, and it hits Danny. But. To his surprise, Danny used to his right fist to stop the attack from fully hitting him, but he eventually gets overwhelmed and the attack lands, knocking him across the arena.
As the dust settles, Yamcha senses Danny’s ki signature rising before getting hit with a projectile chi blast, stunning him. Danny rushes out of the smoke, seemingly healed from the damage that happened to him before dunking on Yamcha with a fist slam. Yamcha gets slammed into the ground, putting a large crater in it.
Yamcha lays there on his side, seemingly defeated, but Danny notices his pulse and tried to get back into his stance but gets hit with Yamcha’s Blinding Wolf Fang Fist. Danny screams as he falls to the ground, and holds his hand over his chest.
Danny stands up and heals himself, then gets back into his fighting stance. They both clash their fists with each other as not just the stadium, but the whole universe around them feels the impact from it. The shock causes the world to shake as the people in the stadium start to panic. The announcer speaks.
“HOLY SHIT! THAT SHIELD IS NOT WORKING! SOMEONE FIRE MICHEAL, THAT BASTARD LIED!!! Oh, wait, the mic is on.”
“Woah, now that’s power if I’ve ever seen it!” says Yamcha in a delighted tone. Danny wiggles his wrists and cracks his neck and knuckles. Yamcha raises his palm and forms a spirit ball. He shoots said spirit ball at Danny, who attempts to dodge them, but gets hit from behind by the spirit ball instead. Yamcha moves his middle and index finger around multiple times in order to guide the spirit ball into hitting Danny. The ball hits Danny over and over again until Danny finally punches it away. Yamcha’s eyes widen and his eyebrows raise in surprise before smirking again. He then starts to build up an even bigger spirit ball as a result.
“Alright, since you didn’t like the last one, how about this one!”
Yamcha fires the large spirit ball at Danny. The crowd looks in awe and horror at the massive size of it. The light from it almost blinds the crowd and outshines the stadium itself. Yamcha finally lets go of the spirit ball.
“SUPER SPIRIT BAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!”
The noise from the attack pierces the sound barrier as the arena starts to crack, but the stadium and outwards only experience a large rumbling. Danny looks up at it and takes the hit. But, instead of being hurt, he sits down, and meditates, closing his eyes, healing himself while the spirit ball hits him, and absorbs it at the last second.
The damage that would’ve been done has been completely avoided, as everyone including Yamcha and the announcer look in shock. The crowd audibly gasps as Danny gets up and opens his eyes. His smile is now gone as he stand completely upright. Yamcha tries to go for a kick, but simply punches his leg, launching it back. “Your kicks still need more balance.” says Danny, but Yamcha looks at him a bit worried. Yamcha internally monologues.
“His ki levels are off the charts! I need to match, but first, I need to understand what’s really going on here.”
“Batter up, Danny!” says Yamcha as he tries to go for another spirit ball. But this time, Danny simply goes for a pressure point, paralyzing his right arm. Yamcha grunts as he tries to use his left hand for a palm strike, but Danny goes for another pressure point. This time however Yamcha quickly throws a Senzu bean in the air before Danny can paralyze his arm. Yamcha’s arm still gets paralyzed, but Yamcha gets to jump up in the air and eat the bean, healing him back to full condition.
“No way I’m losing here! Now, come at me-“
Danny rushes at Yamcha, and uses his mind melding.
“Theft, skill, determination, bravery, death, fear, love, boastfulness, peace, fame…I am fighting a true warrior, and I shall honor that. You are strong Yamcha, but I know your strengths, and I know your weaknesses.”
Yamcha screams as his body starts to glow read.
“MY TURN NOW!”
Yamcha breaks out of the mind meld, as a large burst of red energy knocks Danny back. Danny looks as the dust settles, and the crowd gasps. “HOLY FUCK! IS THAT…OH MY-“ says the announcer. Yamcha is completely engulfed in a red aura. He is now in his Kaio-Ken form.
“You like that? Good. Time to show you my true power!” says Yamcha. Danny stands there as the sky turns black. Danny holds his head down while his hands glow brighter than anything else in the arena besides Yamcha’s aura.
“We fight for the same cause, Yamcha. I respect you. Now, let us settle this fight once and for all!”
Danny’s body is now surrounded by a yellow-orange energy that stem from his fists. Both get into the ready stance they had at the start of the fight. Both lock eyes, and focus on their inner selves. “I’m coming full force!” says Yamcha, with only focus on his face and mind. “I will do as you do.” says Danny in response. Both of their auras glow brighter and larger as their respective spirit animals, the dragon and wolf, start to form. Both slide their feet back in unison as the night stills at their presence.
And with a sudden burst of energy, they leap towards each other.
“You have earned all of my respect, Danny. I am glad to have fought you on this very day. But, no way I’m losing. Today…is the day I win. I’m NOT DYING HERE! ULTIMATE WOLF FANG FIIIIISST!!!”
“BLACK-BLACK POISON TOUCH!!!”
Their dragon and the wolf clash. As their attacks land, their auras combine, making the kanji for warrior, 戦士. Their clash breaks the barrier around the arena as everyone looks in awe. The universe around them shakes as they both scream in pain and power. The screen then turns white, as all noise is cut out.
“Is the fight over? Wait, where am I?!? Huh?!?” says Yamcha. He looks around the place, as nature seems to be almost…angelic.
“You are in eternal peace, Yamcha.” says the mysterious figure.
“HUH?!? WHO IS THERE?!? Wait..is that…”
“You are close to home now. No need to worry about who I am…not that you need to anyways.”
The voice is revealed to be Danny, the Iron Fist. Yamcha looks at him with a big smile. “Wait…so am I in Heaven…and you are…what are you doing here?” says Yamcha in confusion and excitement.
“This isn’t Heaven. This is purely your body during the transition between life and death. I am here because I am inside your mind after absorbing all of your chi. The Black-Black Poison Touch I used overwhelmed you along with my absorbing of your chi, so you are now in this state.”
“You mean ki?” responds Yamcha.
“Yes. They are, practically the same thing. Anyways, we don’t have much time, but I wanted to thank you for this fight. It has been a while since I have had someone fight against me with such passion and force. You have rivaled my strength multiple times, and that is earned strength, truly. If I were to lose my title of the Iron Fist, you would be next in line to be chosen to wield it. You are more than a Z-Fighter, Yamcha. You are a warrior.”
Yamcha smiles as he starts to fade away.
“Thank you, Danny, thank you for everything today. Farewell.”
Danny walks away as both of them fade away. But as Danny fades away, the screen pans back to Danny holding Yamcha’s head in his arms. Danny looks up as the crowd cheers.
The announcer speaks.
“Well folks, that was a wild ride, but the victor has been determined to be…IRON FIST!”
The stadium roars with excitement as all the light point towards Danny, who smiles. He then says something in his mind.
“Yamcha is somewhere better now, in a Valhalla of some sorts, the place for true warriors. Today was a good day.”
KO![]
Results[]
Boomstick: HOLY SMOKES!
Wiz: Even I’m a bit surprised…not by the results, but by the pure nature of the fight. We will get into that later tho. For now, let’s talk the stats! Firstly, physical stats like strength. Both easily had incredible strength, but Iron Fist was simply stronger and more durable due to the EMH feat.
Boomstick: When Galactus blew up the Skrull planet, it equaled a force of 593.27 Ronnatons of TNT!
Iron Fist has been shown to be able to outclass this in durability and strength via the scaling chain within the series. Yamcha would only be around 59.44 Zettatons of TNT via defeating a Saibaman, who match Raditz in strength as explicitly stated in the manga.
Wiz: And even if you give Yamcha the Kaio-Ken multiplier, which increases his strength times 2, he still wouldn’t be able to reach the same level of strength as Danny, due to the difference in the measurements of tons being too large. So, Iron Fist would naturally have an edge in physical strength by a large margin.
Boomstick: But what about speed?!?
Wiz: Well, both are well, tied in speed. Iron Fist already moves as fast as Thor, who can move across the Marvel Universe, making him immeasurable in speed. While Yamcha is casually able to keep up with Goku, who can move in a void where time is stopped or completely removed, making him immeasurable.
So truly, neither of them can take the stat of speed, meaning they can keep up with each other consistently. This is where the fun part begins…
Boomstick: This is where the fun part begins? You mean sex? Wiz, I’m a married man, I don’t do that type of stuff.
Wiz: No I mean they’re really powerful stuff.
Boomstick: Oh, yeah, that, totally dude.
Wiz: Yamcha has been able to beat someone at a game of baseball who is directly stated to be able to defeat Goku if they wanted to. Goku at this time was capable of threatening the destruction a 5th dimensional structure, aka, the cosmology of Universe 7.
This means that Yamcha is a 5D being power wise, allowing him to affect structures on that level and even destroy them. Well, what does Danny have in his onslaught of feats to counter that?
Boomstick: Being directly above someone who beat the Phoenix Force, which exists about all dimensions! Yes, all dimensions, making dimensions entirely null!
Wiz: So, truthfully, no matter what Yamcha did, he honestly couldn’t do much to even scratch Danny. Even if he used Kaio-Ken, which could possibly double his dimensionality, making him 10th dimensional, it still wouldn’t have mattered when Iron Fist is above someone who dwarfs the very concept of all dimensions. Mix that on top of Danny’s many abilities including his chi absorption, which could nullify the ki based abilities of Yamcha, or his Black-Black Poison Touch, which could instantly kill Yamcha, or even his pressure point abilities, which could paralyze Yamcha.
Boomstick: Guess Yamcha couldn’t Fist the Iron…heh.
Iron Fist (Winner):
+Better physical stats
+Techniques could easily handle Yamcha
+Possibly more experienced
+Higher dimensionality existence
=Speed
=Could heal from attacks
-None
Yamcha (Loser):
+None
=Speed
=Could heal from attacks
-…but would most likely get turned to red dust before being able to use a bean
-Outclassed physically
-Little to no counters towards Danny’s skill
-His dimensionality gets turned null.
Wiz: The winner is Iron Fist.
