Dragon Ball: Rise Without End

---

"Old Supreme Kai said that as long as we find the Dragon Balls, everything will be fine. So I'm going to start searching now!"

GT Son Goku waved to everyone, preparing to take off.

"GT Goku, wait!" Rayden called out. "You're not going alone this time. We're going with you!"

He turned and gestured to everyone from the main timeline.

"Grandpa, I want to come too!" Pan (Xiaofang) ran over, eyes sparkling with determination.

GT Gohan quickly stepped in. "Xiaofang, no. It's too dangerous this time!"

"Don't worry," GT Goku said with a warm smile. "I'll protect her."

GT Gohan sighed, seeing Pan's pleading eyes. "Alright. But, Xiaofang, you have to promise—listen to your grandpa and don't run off on your own!"

"I promise!" she beamed.

Rayden turned to GT Vegeta. "Aren't you joining GT Goku in the search?"

GT Vegeta crossed his arms. "With only one Dragon Radar? How do you expect me to find anything?"

Rayden chuckled. "Those evil dragons won't stay hidden forever. And we have enough people. If we split up and search, we'll definitely track them down."

"Hmm…" GT Vegeta hesitated, then nodded.

Rayden smirked. "Let's make it interesting. A little competition. Whoever finds the most Dragon Balls wins!"

"A competition?" Everyone looked curious.

Rayden explained, "I'll team up with Broly and Cell. GT Goku, you go with GT Vegeta and Xiaofang. Prime Timeline Goku will pair with Vegeta, and Prime Gohan will team up with Piccolo and Paragus. Let's see which group finds the most Dragon Balls!"

"I like it!" GT Goku grinned. "This will be fun!"

"Of course it will be," Prime Vegeta said with pride. "Kakarot and I will find the most."

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Without warning, Prime Gohan, Piccolo, and Paragus blasted into the sky, flying off ahead.

"You cheaters! You left before the game even started!" GT Vegeta yelled, outraged.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The rest of the groups took to the skies, ignoring GT Vegeta's complaints.

"Vegeta! Pan! Let's go before we're last!" GT Goku called out.

"Hmph! Dammit!" GT Vegeta grunted and launched himself into the sky.

Meanwhile, in an abandoned city...

An evil dragon, short and mole-like in appearance, stood amidst crumbling buildings. This was Naturon Shenron, the Earth Dragon—born from the negative energy of a wish GT Vegeta had made to revive innocents he'd once killed.

Now, Naturon Shenron wreaked havoc, stomping his feet to create powerful earthquakes that shattered entire city blocks. Screams echoed as buildings crumbled and civilians were buried under the rubble.

"Hahahaha!" Naturon Shenron laughed maniacally. "This destruction is beautiful!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two powerful auras descended from above.

It was Goku and Vegeta from the prime timeline.

Naturon Shenron squinted. "You're... Son Goku? Wait, didn't you turn into a kid?"

Prime Goku frowned. "Did you just cause all this destruction?"

"So what if I did?" Naturon sneered. "You here to stop me?"

Vegeta didn't waste words. "Enough talking."

He transformed into Super Saiyan 4, crackling with golden energy, and charged at the mole-like dragon.

Naturon Shenron panicked and tried to burrow underground.

But before he could disappear, Vegeta grabbed his tail and hurled him into the sky.

Vegeta brought his hands together at chest level, forming a massive, shining energy sphere.

"Final Flash!"

Boom!

Naturon screamed as the attack vaporized him completely.

Vegeta landed and picked up a glowing orb from the rubble—it was the Seven-Star Dragon Ball.

Prime Goku asked, "Vegeta, how'd you know he was an Evil Dragon?"

"I saw it when I arrived," Vegeta replied. "That ball on his head—it looked like a Dragon Ball, but it was black."

"So each Evil Dragon has a Dragon Ball embedded in them..." Goku muttered.

"Let's keep moving."

Meanwhile, over the sea...

Rayden, Broly, and Cell soared above a vast ocean, scanning the region for any Dragon Ball activity.

Below them, in a quiet fishing village, something seemed off.

"Why aren't they out fishing?" Rayden asked, noticing the crowd of fishermen gathered at the shore.

They descended and approached the villagers.

"What's going on?" Rayden asked a weathered old man.

"We're waiting for the Dragon Goddess," he said. "Ever since she appeared, we haven't had to fish anymore. Every day she brings us seafood—giant hauls, all from the ocean!"

"Definitely sounds like an Evil Dragon," Cell muttered.

"Let's wait and see," Rayden said.

They stood near the villagers as the sea, calm a moment before, began to churn violently.

"The Dragon Goddess has arrived!" someone shouted.

The surface of the sea shimmered, and a figure emerged—graceful and intimidating.

A woman floated above the waves.

Her skin was a pale blue, her long purple hair cascading down to her ankles. She wore a flowing blue dress, metal bracelets, and had a glowing orb embedded in her forehead.

"She's beautiful..." one of the fishermen whispered in awe.

"That's Oceanus Shenron," Rayden said calmly. "The Water and Wind Dragon. Born from the negative energy of a wish Oolong made—for a girl's underwear."

Cell's eyes narrowed. "That orb... it's the Six-Star Dragon Ball."

Oceanus Shenron floated elegantly and looked around. "Where is Son Goku?"

"He's not here," Rayden answered. "But he's not the one you need to worry about."

"So bold... and rude," Oceanus sneered. She summoned dozens of swirling air bombs around her.

"Air-Splitting Bomb!"

The energy spheres launched like marbles from all directions.

Rayden, Broly, and Cell raised energy shields around their bodies.

Bang! Boom! Crash!

Explosions rocked the coastline. Waves crashed into the village, shattering boats and leveling trees.

But when the smoke cleared, the three warriors stood untouched.

Oceanus Shenron's expression faltered. "What?!"

Rayden narrowed his eyes. "It's over."

He summoned a glowing air scythe, its edges glowing with purple-red light.

With a sudden flicker of motion, Rayden vanished and reappeared in front of her.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

He moved so fast it was impossible to follow. Oceanus Shenron was diced into countless pieces, her form breaking apart like shattered glass.

The storm clouds parted. The waters calmed.

Rayden descended and picked up the Six-Star Dragon Ball from where she had fallen.

Broly and Cell floated down beside him.

"Well, that was easy," Cell smirked.

"Let's keep moving," Rayden said.

The trio shot into the sky and flew eastward, toward their next target.
