It had been a while since Goku had a decent workout. He had done plenty of training, but now it was time to see how far he had come with it. Of course, he could still feel a lot of his own untapped energy, but he could work on unlocking more another time. For now, it was time to see what he could with what he had right now. Stepping into the arena was a welcome sight. It didn't look much different than when he last entered it, albeit perhaps a bit more beaten up from use. The cheering fans seemed to recognize him a bit too, though Goku had been waving specifically to Vegeta and Cieu. Next time, he'd like to see them fight-- he wanted to see how far their training had gotten them, just as much as himself. Pausing a few feet from the center of the arena, Goku began to do some quick stretching exercises as he waited for his opponent to enter from the opposite end of the coliseum, a wide grin on his face as he awaited to see what kind of powerful opponent he'd be fighting. |

For the past several weeks, Hana had been pressuring Emu to go to the Crater Coliseum in order to better train against opponents for when they inevitably had to get into a major fight out in the Multiverse. Despite Emu mainly focusing on his career as a pediatrician, he had to admit that he had gotten a bit rusty as a Kamen Rider -- The recent battle against Dr. Wily proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt, being that he was unable to use most of his Gashats outside of Might Action X and Gekitotsu Robots. If Hana hadn't come in when she did, he would have likely gotten a Game Over in the encounter as a result. Not long after the crowds settled down from their reaction to the returning Goku, the announcer for the arena called him in next. The doctor was wearing his usual attire - red jeans, a green T-Shirt with a yellow "89" made entirely out of squares, and his Seito University Hospital medical coat. The Gamer Driver was around his waist, and he held Mighty Action X in his hand as he finally saw his opponent. "Eh? No way! Son Goku's my opponent?!" he shouted, running forward before he stumbled, falling face-first onto the ground. Dusting himself off, he looked at Hana, who only gave him a thumbs-up. Of course, he had heard of Son Goku's exploits in the multiverse, and he was the star of quite a few video games back in his own world, so he had quite a bit of knowledge about the Sayian going into this bout. But if coming here taught him anything, it's that his gaming experience can only give him so much to work with, unlike with the Bugsters, who typically behaved as they did in their home games. Finally getting back up, he looked his opponent and extended his hand. "Nice to meet you, Son Goku!" he told him, a smile on his face. "I wasn't actually expecting you to be my first fight here."

Goku gave a wave of his hand in greeting to the other's arrival. He certainly seemed friendly enough, maybe a little clumsy, but friendly nonetheless. And the other seemed to know who Goku was, too. He had helped out during a few conflicts, and frequented the Coliseum, but he didn't expect others to really know him by name so well. It was a little flattering, but he brushed it off for now. "Nice t'meetcha, Emu." Goku greeted back with a grin, guessing the name used by the announcer belong to the other man. It seemed Emu was a bit shocked to be facing off against him. Well, there wasn't much either of them could do about it-- he just hoped the other wouldn't be too scared or worried to fight at full power. Goku took the other's hand and returned the handshake firmly. "Let's have ourselves a good match, alright? I can't wait to see how strong you are!" The announcer prepared to start the match, and Goku took a few paces back. Settling into his fighting stance, Goku waited-- even after the the match began, the saiyan didn't make an immediate move. He wanted to see how Emu was going to start this fight off. Just imagining how it might go was getting Goku pumped up! |

Emu couldn't help but smile a bit wider at Goku's greeting, as he couldn't help but feel a little relieved that he was looking forward to the fight despite being a relative newcomer. As he pulled his hand away, his eyes glowed red for a brief moment before a smirk appeared on his face. "Then I'll clear this battle with no continues!" he told him confidently as he held out the pink game cartridge, and pressed the button down. MIGHTY ACTION X! From the holographic title screen that appeared behind him, several blocks resembling brown cubed tetrominos appeared and scattered themselves around the arena, some landing on the ground while others hovered in the air. "Transform!" The doctor then inserted the Gashat into the slot on top of the Driver, and a character select wheel appeared around him, picking the one that stopped directly in front of him as he was engulfed in a pink glow. Let's Game! Metcha Game! Mutcha Game! What's your name?! I'm a Kamen Rider! When the glow faded, what stood in Emu's place was a rather stocky figure in white armor, with a chestplate resembling controller buttons and a life bar. The "hair" of the armor was pink and spiky. Ultimately, Emu had looked like a chibi anime character. Outstretching his arms, Emu looks straight at Goku. "Now..." He then does a full one-hundred-and-eighty degree turn and starts running away from the Sayian at a surprising speed for his proportions. "Catch me if you can!" he shouted at him. "He's starting at Level 1?" Hana muttered, just loudly enough for anyone next to her to hear. "Even though everyone's heard of him, why is he starting at that low of a level? And with that kind of tactic to boot? Unless he's..." Edited by D.Va, Mar 15 2018, 09:13 AM.

Goku watched closely to the transformation as it unfolded. The result was something he hadn't quite expected in terms of appearance, but there was no mistaking that Emu's power had risen. Goku grinned, feeling excitement bubble up again. He was ready to face his opponent...except now Emu was running away, taunting him to follow. The saiyan's brow quirked slightly-- just what was this guy planning? No point in falling into a trap so early into the match though. Goku's hands began to glow a bright yellow as he pulled them back, and then thrust them forward several times in rapid succession. The result was a hail of five or six balls of ki that were flung into the air as they began to zero in on Emu's position, threatening to explode on contact with a non-lethal, but certainly painful, burst of energy. Cieu had been sitting next to D.Va, with Vegeta next on the other side of the Majin. She turned, blinking curiously. "Level one? D'you know that guy who's fighting Goku?" she asked. Though she was eager to learn what D.Va had meant, Vegeta's attention remained fixated on the battle with a stern gaze. |

Emu could hear the ki blasts heading towards him, and the Rider jumped and rolled out of the way of a few of them, using the blocks that were created as extra leverage to get a height advantage on the Sayian for the moment. In mid jump, however, one of the blasts knocked Emu forward, but he quickly went into a rolling motion before getting back up and running again. "Come on, come on! Is that it?" he asked, goading him into firing off more attacks as he made his way towards a particular block, summoning the Gashacon Breaker in its hammer mode. Either he was going to goad Goku into breaking it, or he would have to do it himself, but he hoped that regardless that there was a useful Energy Item inside of it he could use to help. Hana nods. "He's my roommate. Emu Hojo, also known as Kamen Rider Ex-Aid," she told the majin. "Right now he's fighting using his weakest form, Action Gamer Level 1. He's kinda like... using powers based on platforming games, so it makes sense that he's that agile despite the oddly shaped proportions he has. Still, Level 2 is stronger, so the only way I can see him using Level 1 is..." Her eyes widened, and she smiled. "Ah... I get it. He's getting a feel for his opponent before seeing where to go after!" Edited by D.Va, Mar 15 2018, 08:06 AM.

Goku's expression seemed to harden just slightly. He couldn't figure out what Emu was planning with all that taunting, but hanging back and tossing ki blasts wasn't going to get him anywhere, probably. He'd have to figure it out by charging in head-first. Whatever it was, Goku found himself wanting to see just what the other male was capable of. The saiyan suddenly took off, flying higher up until he was coming downward toward the other fighter. With his leg raised, he brought his foot down to attempt to deliver a crushing kick, enough power to leave a small crater on the ground if it missed. "Powers...based on games? So he's just testing the waters with Goku, then?" Cieu paused for a moment, before smiling with a giggle. "Heehee, he better watch out. Mister Goku's super strong. He's not even using Super Saiyan yet, and already he's got that Emu guy on the ropes, runnin' away like crazy!" Finally, Vegeta decided to speak up, "Don't be a fool, Cieu. His current form might not seem powerful, but that man is planning something. He's been taunting Kakarot this whole time, without even trying to fight back. If that fool isn't careful, he'll have walked right into a trap of some sort..." |

Emu looked up when Goku started flying upward, but the sayian was too fast for him to attempt to dodge, taking the hit square in the chest as he rolled backwards. He could hear his Rider Gauge decrease, but he couldn't see how much in mid-roll. When he eventually came to a stop, he saw he was right by a block. Summoning his Gashacon Breaker, he slammed the head of the hammer into the cube, breaking it open and revealing a large, silver-colored token, which then flew above the Rider and dissolved into green sparkles. Looking down at his Rider Gauge, which had a quarter of it taken off by the attack, he saw it quickly restored to full, and he gave a sigh of relief before looking at the Sayian again. "So you're as strong as I figured you'd be. Looks like I don't need to be at this level anymore, especially against an opponent like you," he told him before he put his hand on the handle of the driver. "Transformation Plus!" he exclaimed as a holographic screen matching the screen of the driver appeared. He then ran through it, surrounded by a pink aura for a moment before jumping into the air. Gatchan! Level Up! Mighty Jump, Mighty Kick, Mighty Mighty Action X! The rest of the armor split apart and faded away, while the head seemed to flatten from the back what appeared to be a new body entirely emerged from it. This new form was primarily magenta colored, and much more proportioned to a normal human form than his previous one. The Rider would then land one one knee, his right arm outstretched before he looked up at Goku. "Kamen Rider Ex-Aid... Level 2!" He then called for the Gashacon Breaker once again before charging towards Goku, pressing the green B button on it three times. When he had gotten within close proxmity to the sayian, he jumped up and pressed the pink A button, causing blade to flip up and extend from the head of the hammer before he brought the blade down on his opponent, leaving three slash marks in no particular pattern on the ground if it had missed. "That was close..." Hana sighed. "I didn't expect him to get hit that hard. Good thing he found that Recovery item when he did..." she muttered. "Even though it was a bit of a gamble, since there might have been a different item in there, if there even was one. It could have made the situation even worse for him." As Emu transformed into Level 2, the gamer turned to Cieu and Vegeta. "You mentioned something about a 'Super Sayian' earlier. Is that something like a Level 2 form for Ex-Aid, or something else entirely? The way you said it seems like he's a lot stronger if becomes that." |

Vegeta finally glanced as Hana openly pondered about what a 'Super Saiyan' was. He was silent for a moment as he returned to watching the battle, letting out a scoff. "Sit tight, and you'll find out soon enough. If that man is going to start taking things more seriously by powering up, then Kakarot no doubt will too." Goku felt his blow connect, watching Emu be tossed back by the kick. Even though he managed to deal some damage, the sudden appearance of a strange token seemed to make whatever damage he inflicted pointless. This guy had a really strange power, no doubt about it. Before he could make any other attempt at an attack, Emu was starting to power up. A visible smirk crept on Goku's face-- it seemed things were going to be taken up a notch. A bubbling excitement swelled in the saiyan's chest as he let the transformation play out. With all the theatrics, Goku was getting some interesting Ginyu Force vibes, even if only marginally. "Heheh, guess we're gonna start gettin' serious then, huh?" Goku spoke, though not really to anyone in particular. As Emu brought the distance between them closer and closer, Goku readied himself for an attack. What he thought was going to be the hammer striking him turned out to be a blade instead-- Goku tried to back off, but Emu's speed was faster than he thought and it caught him. The attack managed to leave cuts along his chest, evidenced by the tears in his gi. Backing off to create some distance, Goku clenched his fists. "Alright, guess it's my turn. I'm not gonna be holdin' back anymore either, so get ready!" There was a moment of quiet in the air. Any winds that might've been in the breeze fell silent as Goku hunched over slightly. The saiyan's ki began to rise higher and higher, the light-blue aura around him becoming visible. The winds returned suddenly, blowing in every direction as Goku clenched his fists tightly. "Hryaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaah!!" Goku roared, and suddenly an explosion of ki, alongside a bright yellow flash, signaled the transformation. Bathed in a golden light, hair standing on end, and eyes a piercing greenish-blue, Goku had become a Super Saiyan. He idly wondered if he'd be pushed any further than this form. He certainly hoped so. Without a word and little warning, Goku took off again toward Emu. This time a flurry of punches and kicks came forth like machine-gun fire. Rapid blows following one another, though not very powerful by themselves, were made up by the sheer number of attacks at once. A final, intense gut punch was thrown afterwards, with enough force to send Emu flying if he was struck. Edited by Son Goku, Mar 25 2018, 02:35 AM.

Emu let out a confident chuckle as the Gashacon Breaker's attacks landed, but he didn't seem that fazed by it. When he saw Goku back off, the Rider straightened up before realizing what he was going to do, and he raised his arms in a defensive stance. The arena went quiet for a moment before he felt the wind blow in all directions. He shielded his eyes as Goku's ki flared up, only moving them down once Goku had finished transforming. "Oh? So this is what a Super Sayian is like..." he says before he noticed his opponent was flew towards him, throwing punches at a rapid pace that it was hard to keep up with, even in the much faster Level 2. While Emu was able to block most of them, the sheer number of blows overwhelmed him, getting caught by the last flurry and the following gut punch, which sent him backwards. Managing to right himself mid flight, he skidded on the ground, using his blade to slow himself down. He knew he was at a disadvantage without a ranged attack, so he'd need get closer. Launching himself onto one of the airborne blocks, he started jumping from block to block in order to close the gap. "W-Whoa... I practically tasted that power..." Hana muttered as she watched the fight. "But now he has Emu on the ropes. I didn't think a Super Sayian would be this strong." |

Goku watched with a grin as his flowing ki swayed at a regular interval after his attacked finished, though it seemed Emu wasn't going to go down so easily. "Like I said, I ain't holdin' back anymore. You better make sure you come at me with everything you got, alright?" Goku said with a tone that was less-so a taunt, and more an actual point of advice. Despite the power he had put behind that punch, the other fighter was still able to get back up pretty quickly, and already he was rushing the saiyan down again. Goku readied himself, hurling two orbs of ki at the Kamen Rider. Though they weren't aimed exactly at him, they'd explode on the first thing they'd touch-- they were meant more to serve as a distraction as Goku tossed a third, larger blast of ki aimed directly for Emu. Vegeta scoffed, as if the outcome was obvious. "Of course it is. We Saiyans are a proud, warrior race. There's not a being in any universe that can ultimately defeat a Saiyan." Cieu leaned over toward Hana, speaking in a low tone and using the back of her hand to disguise that she was speaking. "Just ignore him-- he's got a superiority complex as big as his forehead." the majin chimed with a giggle. |

D.Va put a hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing at Cieu's comment regarding Vegeta, and she glanced at the Sayian's head. Oh my god... she just told herself before looking back at the fight. Seeing the ki orbs flying at him, Emu jumped away mere moments before it hit the block he was on, breaking it. Unlike the one from earlier, there weren't any power-ups inside it, and the same could be said at the next one that was destroyed. The moment Emu picked up on the the intent of the attacks, he was blasted by the third ki blast, knocking him off the block and sending him crashing into the ground. Using the Gashacon Breaker to help himself get up, his free hand reaching for a red Gashat on the side holster on the belt before he quickly second-guessed himself went to remove the Gashat again, inserting it in an empty slot to the right of a silver button before pressing down on it. Kimewaza! As Emu's foot began to be surrounded with technicolor energy, he jumped into the air, hitting a block and breaking it, revealing a yellow token that depicted a figure running. Right as it was absorbed into the Kamen Rider, he pressed the button again. Mighty Critical Strike! Extending his foot towards the sayian, he launched forward at a speed even higher than normal, giving Goku a very small window to dodge or block his Rider Kick. If it connected, Emu would follow up the front kick with several more kicks in mid-air, coming from all directions |

Goku's expression became something of shock, eyes widened slightly as he began to move out of the way, but only to be too late. The kick connected cleanly with his shoulder, causing Goku to stagger enough to be hit by the wave of kicks that came at him. His body hit along the ground quite hard, skidding to a stop and shakily righting himself. His gi lightly tattered and scuffs and bruises now dotting along his body, Goku grunted in slight pain despite still wearing a grin. "Yikes... That was a strong attack." he muttered, taking his fighting stance again, "I'm gonna have to be careful I don't get hit with anymore attacks like that one..." But now it was his turn to go on the offensive-- Goku took off toward Emu, bringing his leg down to try and sweep the other's legs out from under him, followed by a kick that would send Emu straight up into the sky. Should it all go according to plan, Goku would put two fingers to his head, using Instant Transmission to meet Emu at the height of his upward rise, using a fierce punch to send the other fighter crashing back to the coliseum's ground. |

Emu landed on his feet and righted himself as he watched Goku get up, and the recovery time from the finisher was enough for Goku to regain the upper hand, the sweep and kick combination sending him into the sky. Just before he could try to find a way to counter before Goku pulled another move, he saw the Sayian disappear. That was-- he told himself before he felt a fist connect with his back, sending him right back down to the ground. As he shifted to lay on his back, he took note of the Rider Gauge, of which there was only a third remaining. Without much option, he quickly adjusted himself and took out the red Gashat he was reaching for earlier before pressing the button, closing the door on the Gamer Driver at the same time. Gekitotsu Robots! As the title screen for the game appeared beside Emu, out from it came a small, red robot with boxing glove-like arms. "Transformation Plus Plus!" Emu exclaimed as he inserted the Gashat into the empty slot next to Mighty Action X, and the robot soon began to unfold and transform into armor for the Rider. Gatchan! Level Up! Mighty Jump, Mighty Kick, Mighty Mighty Action X! A Gacha! Buttobase totsugeki! Gekitotsu Punch! Gekitotsu Robots! As the armor attached itself to Emu's chest, back, and shoulders, a red headpiece would go on the Rider's helmet and produce a V-shaped fin at the top. Lastly, a large mechanical arm attached itself onto his left. "Kamen Rider Ex-Aid... Level 3!" He then held out his right arm towards Goku and made a "come on" gesture with his hand. The fight was nowhere near done. "Huh... So he's really using it, huh? He must be desperate if he's really using it even though he knows he won't be able to match Goku's speed," Hana said, leaning forward to watch the fight. "Well, it's gonna be make-or-break for him at this, he can't go any higher than Level 3 right now." |

Goku kept his guard up, watching as Emu began to transform again. As his opponent began to goad him into attacking, the saiyan's brow quirked slightly. With all that armor on Emu, he probably wasn't any faster-- but no doubt he was probably packing quite a harder punch now. Goku's body relaxed slightly as he took in a deep breath. Suddenly there was an intense pressure as his aura erupted in a bright blue, hair turning a similar color. Goku's hands cupped together at the base of his palms, craning them to his side as he began charging ki between them. The familiar pose and chant could only mean one thing-- likely something Emu knew quite well. "Kaaaa...meee...haaaa...meeee...--!" The blue ki between his hands growing into a large and bright ball. The swirling of energy was causing bits and pieces of rubble to hover in place; a blast like this wasn't going to be like any of the ones before. It was the real deal. Goku's arms thrust forward, and from his palms the Kamehameha erupted, the beam wide and fast even from only a few moments of charging. "--HAAAAAAAAAA!!" |

So, Goku was going for that move... Even in Robot Gamer Level 3, Emu knew he wouldn't be able to take the full brunt of a hit like that, so as soon as the Sayian warrior began charging his attack, Emu took out the Gekitotsu Robots Gashat and inserted into the side slot, pressing down on the button. Kimewaza! While Goku continued collecting energy, the giant robotic arm soom began to glow a burning red, surrounded by an aura to match as Emu reeled the arm back. As soon as he saw him start moving his arms, he reached to press the button again while extending his fist forward, sending the mechanical arm rocketing towards the beam of energy and colliding with it, the two attacks pushing against one another to try and reach their respective targets. Gekitotsu Critical Strike! |

Goku's arms shook as he felt his beam attack collide with Emu's giant fist. Emu wasn't going down without a fight, and he was even holding his own against Goku's Super Saiyan Blue form. Even if it was affected by the Drain, this guy was somethin' else for sure. Their two attacks remained deadlocked, fighting to gain ground over one another. Goku gritted his teeth, grunting under the strain-- if he didn't end this, Emu might actually overtake him. "Sorry, Emu!" Goku grinned, speaking over the noise of their attacks, "This was a lotta fun! You're way stronger than I thought. I hope we get the chance to fight again!" After he finished, Goku suddenly began yelling as his aura flared up again, his power rising higher and higher. Once it reached an apex, a moment of silence came over him, until-- "KAI-O-KEN!" His blue aura was suddenly enveloped in a brilliant red, and his Kamehameha was given a new burst of power as it grew larger and stronger. Goku thrust his arms further, giving his attack another push against Emu's robotic arm, loudly roaring as he unleashed it. |
