The Disgraceful Downfall of DragonKid Chapter 6, 7, 8

 

6.

As devilish as the Galactic Aliens could be, they still wished to hand Dragon Kid a crushing defeat to show their dominance and supremacy, even though it would be effortless to capture DK with all those close surveillance, they still wanted to defeat DK with their own creation of a powerful monster, they had to display their superiority over human beings, otherwise, they fully understood that retaliation would always occur, and now they knew that if they could defeat DK fair and square, then the total conquest would be consummated.

After two years of observation and research, Astakine and his Monster Creation Group eventually succeeded in constructing their most powerful monster ever created – Regenerator!

 

Regenerator was their ultimate creation and their last bet to demolish DK once and for all to stamp their total superiority on the people of the city, failure was not an option, and Astakine fully realized that his life was at stake too if Regenerator could not defeat DK, he knew that Kuramao had reached the maximum limit of his patience, DK had inflicted too many armour damages and financial loss to the Galactic Aliens, when he last prostrated in front of the Galactic Emperor, he had been given the final ultimatum to capture DK dead or alive, otherwise, his whole team with Astakine would be banished into the Darkworld.

 

Nobody wanted to go to Darkworld, they would rather die than be sent there alive.

 

To enhance the chances of victory, Astakine picked the busiest day DK had after he went through gut-punching sessions at school, then he rushed to the warehouse to toil for 4 hours and tied up to be a human punching bag for the owner’s son. After attending his grandpa, he went to meet the FM where he was again bashed and raped, and by the time he came home with a stack of cash, it was nearly midnight, he thought he could go to bed for recuperation although those physical pain and bruises were not bothering him much.

 

Before he could lie down, he received the news of a monster wreaking havoc in the slum area of the city where it was densely populated, he knew the authorities usually would not defend those destitute people who lived there, so he had to be there to save their lives. He first ensured the grandpa had fallen asleep and rushed out to the notified spot, but as he left his home, a few Black Aliens stealthily appeared from behind his house.

 

When DK reached the slum area where the monster was reported incessantly killing the innocents, he saw some Black Aliens firing their laser guns in a killing spree, and as expected only a handful of monster fighters were there trying to hold them off, those fighters were actually volunteers formed by the slum residents, but they were totally outnumbered by the Black Aliens. Without any hesitation, DK joined the violent battle between good and evil, the monster fighters were relieved to see the presence of DK, on the other hand, the Black Aliens were losing the upper hand against DK as they were no match at all to the agility and supreme skill of martial art that DK displayed. But they seemed to be appearing ceaselessly to keep DK and the monster fighters busy, DK and the fighters were overwhelmingly outnumbered and the confrontation just continued for hours, DK eventually had to summon his Chi and release it externally to crush the Black Aliens. One by one the Black Aliens were exterminated at the expense of utilizing DK’s Chi which was supposed to sustain his invincibility, DK always refrained from unleashing his Chi externally but he had to do it repeatedly tonight to get rid of the Black Aliens.

 

After two and a half hours of the confrontation and prolonged battle, the Black Aliens retreated and the peace was restored. DK sensed something amiss as he expected a new monster to appear, the monster fighters gathered around DK and thanked him as tonight they were able to defeat the Black Aliens with the help from DK, but the temporary victory came with a cost, DK was extremely exhausted and drained as he had to fight for so long and the release of Chi externally truly took its toll on him, he knew that he had to head back home for a full recovery, otherwise, he would be too weak even to go to work tomorrow.

 

After ensuring that safety and peace resumed in the area, DK left on his superbike, it was nearly midnight and the city was nearly deserted, even on the main highway back home, there was hardly any traffic. Suddenly, a huge figure just landed slowly from the sky in front of him, DK stopped the bike to take a careful look, it was a human-like creature standing majestically right in his way, DK instantly knew it was a hostile entity and certainly not a human looking at its poise and movement. DK alighted from the superbike and scrutinized the uninvited guest who just stood there, rooted and motionless, a few cars were forced to apply emergency brakes to avoid crashing into it. The creature was in a human form but the size was like a giant with a height of nearly 7 feet, its shadow just towered over DK who was only 5 feet 6 inches, its arms and legs were nearly double the size of DK, the face was devilishly handsome, and the muscles were beyond description as the appearance clearly displayed extreme hardness and solidity. The contour of its physique was as deeply chiselled as DK but the bulkiness was beyond any comparison, the pectorals were so immense and each abdominal block was as big as DK’s two abdominal muscular bricks combined. Both of its legs resembled tree logs with twisted vines covering the surface, the entire image of the creature was ominous but to DK, he was not intimidated at all, in past encounters with various monsters, he had seen the bigger and uglier monsters, only this time he was like going to fight with another human who was much more massive in size.

 

Under normal circumstances, DK was fully prepared to go into a battle, but at this moment, he was slightly alarmed by his own power level, excessive Chi had been spent to fight the Black Aliens, and he could sense that the Chi level had dropped to about 40% only, he needed time to recover and regain, but now he was kind of stranded on the highway with both sides cars piling up, there was no way out for him, the only obvious option was to fight this human-like monster!

DK was not too stupid to realize that this fight had to be quick and short, with his Chi and energy mostly spent, his only chance was to defeat this ominous-looking human-like monster as soon as possible, so he instantly displayed a fighting pose, legs steadily ground-footed and fists balled tightly in front of his chest. But that human-like monster seemed to be totally unfazed, he just stood there, relaxed and appearing unready.

 

DK instantly swung into action by unleashing double-fisted punches at its chest, his movement speed was dazzlingly fast but the monster didn’t move an inch when the punches were just a whisker away from him, his eyes didn’t even wink. DK sensed it but in his mind, it was due to the monster’s sluggish reaction just like others, so he pounded his way with full force!

 

Bang!Bang!DK’s fists clearly sank into its pectoral muscles but the monster still stood there like a massive pillar, on the contrary, it was DK who was shoved back a few steps.  DK was slightly taken aback but he continued with a barrage of numerous rapid fires of punches on the monster’s abs and ended with two powerful upper jabs on its chin, despite a low level of superpower, DK was still able to channel sufficient power which was ferocious enough to crash a brick-wall. But again, the monster just stood there, it didn’t even move an inch, it was expressionless and it just stared at the fists-swinging lean superhero in front of him.

 

DK started to get a bit alarmed, he had never hit a monster to get that kind of scary reaction, just too scary to see how motionless it was, a total waste of energy on something that seemed to be lifeless, like a massive stuffed rubbery toy in which every attack crushed the muscles relentlessly without drawing any reaction from it. DK then hurled both of his arms sideways to ram the fists onto its temples simultaneously, no monster in the past would be able to endure this assault without any responses, but this monster was exceptional, this handsomely looking monstrous man just looked at DK’s equally handsome face, and suddenly he lifted his right arm to softly land his fist on DK’s ripped abdominal bricks.

 

It genuinely just gently landed its fist on DK’s midsection, DK was incredibly catapulted away with an explosion of pain he never felt before inside his belly! But DK was a tough superhero, despite the pain, he regained balance in mid-air and landed steadily with a fighting pose. He knew that the monster was not affected at all by his super-powered onslaught, it was time to launch Chi-attack which he mobilized his Chi to his fists and feet, the punches and kicks from these Chi-injected fists and feet would usually inflict pain and injuries to the monsters. The monstrously handsome human-like monster just observed quietly how DK’s fists and feet lit up in bluish rays, it showed they were engulfed with the lethal Chi.

 

DK leapt into the air and straight away unleashed a string of punches and ferocious kicks on the monster’s face, pectorals and abs, he could feel it was finally shifted slightly left and right by the magnificent forces generated from his Chi, but then its non-responsive expression alerted him greatly, indicating the extent of damages inflicted was, in fact, minimal and insignificant. DK instantly gathered all his Chi to his right fist and he was ready to land the final blow on the monster’s chest where he identified the exact spot of its pumping heart.

 

In the past, no monster or whosoever could evade his Chi-lightning punch, but then when his right fist flew to be as near as half a foot from that spot, it lifted his palm and grabbed DK’s right fist! DK was totally stunned and dumbfounded, his Chi-lightning-punch never missed the target, it would always inflict different levels of injuries to the monsters, but no one ever could block it until now, this devilishly handsome human-like monster just grabbed his fist with ease, and with a scornful smile, he just simply threw his right fist into DK’s midsection!

 

KAPOWWWWW!For the first time in his superhero’s life, DK felt the punch was like penetrating his stomach, and its incredible power triggered an explosion of massive pain in his rock-hard abs, needless to say, the punch sent him flung away to the other direction and ram onto the high concrete wall! That was not the scariest thing this monster could do, what was scarier was just in the blink of an eye, he travelled as fast as light to land in front of the dazed DK. Right before DK could react an inch, the monster hurled a few punches left and right into the pulverized abs, and at the same time stopped Dk from falling forward. The flurry of punches shoved DK to bang the concrete wall on both sides of the highway, BAM!BAM!BAM!BAM!To the people who had to stop to see what was happening, the punches launched seemed to be very casual, but to DK they were the most powerful punches he had ever suffered so far!

 

DK gasped as the fists sank a few inches into his superbly armoured abdominal muscles, he could sense the real pain spreading from his stomach, for the first round of punches, he still could refrain from yelling as his highly-trained abdominal blocks managed to withstand the pain to a certain extent. The monster sensed DK’s toughness after connecting 10 punches on his abs, it also could feel how solidly compacted DK’s abdominal wall was, and it knew he had to hike the punching force. Gritting his teeth, DK endured the torturous pain inside his gut and tried to retaliate by crushing that monster’s head on both of its temples, KRAK!KRAK! The blows were fatal to any normal people or weak monsters, but again it was irresponsive to the brutal assault, it just acted like nothing happened, instead, the retaliation enraged the monster, it grabbed DK’s neck single-handedly and rammed his body against the wall forcefully, so forceful that DK’s muscular back crushed onto it and caused a few cracks!  

 

DK knew that he had to end the fight the sooner the better, the confrontation with the Black Aliens for more than two hours took its toll on his superpower, especially after launching a few times of Chi-Storm to exterminate the group assault strategy from the aliens, he could sense the dipping level of his Chi storage, but he didn’t expect it to drop below 50%. The Chi capacity increased slightly after his abs was badly bashed by the monster but then the hike was insignificant. With the Chi’s level just hovering around 50%, DK realized that he had to take a risk of mobilizing the Chi in its entirety to defeat this ominous monster, the only arsenal he could think of now was the one that he had never launched before, this ultimate weapon was a do-or-die act, and at this moment, it was his last chance of survival.

 

Finally, DK performed something that he had never shown to the people of this city, he inhaled fully and garnered all the strength to congregate the Chi inside his stomach, below his shredded 8-packed abdominal muscles, a ball of yellow light started to emerge and glow. The appearance of this light caught the attention of the monster, even Astakine and Kuramao who watched the fight remotely were startled looking at the glowing light. Then DK split the light ball into two halves and mobilized the light to rush through his chest and enter both of his arms, they finally reached his hands that clenched into fists. Now there were two yellow balls of light that swirled and illuminated around DK’s fists like gaseous clouds, at the same time, DK started to growl as the yellow clouds swirled with increasing speed, and then suddenly DK yelled at a feverish pitch:

“CHI SWOOOOOORDDDDDD…….” before hurling both of his arms in the air with a flat thin sheet of light generated from his palms, these thin sheets of yellow light resembled the sharpest sword that ever existed in the world, Chi-Sword was the secret weapon of DK because anything that came into the path of this moving sword would be sliced and chopped off!

 

Phew!Phew!......Phew!Phew!......the momentous flashes of the lightening swords cut through the monster’s arms and legs, and in no time, the monster was dismembered into a few body parts, the arms and legs were chopped off into two parts each, and whatever was left was the monster’s body without its arms and legs. As DK nearly used up all the Chi, he listlessly knelt on the floor, panting and breathing laboriously, he had never exhausted the capacity of his Chi to this level and he would always have some backup if his Chi level was full, but with its level dropped to less than 50%, he had no more Chi left inside his body, but then he thought the monster had been exterminated, so it didn’t matter anymore, he could go back home to recuperate and regain his Chi.

 

The crowds cheered as they saw that DK saved the day again, they were so relieved to see this powerful monster was dead, but then their reprieve was shortlived, as DK stood up showing his lean body with some pinkish welts on his shredded abs due to the bashing from the monster, he could see the limbless body of the monster still lied down on the floor, someone from the crowds already informed Monster Cleaning Squad to retrieve the dead monster. As DK turned around and walked to his superbike, he could see the startled expressions of the people who were there, and then he heard some stirring noise at his back, he turned around and in unbelievable shock, he saw the monster standing in front of him with all its four limbs!

 

The monster grinned and said: “Hi, superstud, I am back!”

DK was dumbfounded and he stammered: “Who…who….are you?”

The monster walked toward DK and said: “I am Regenerator and I am going to crush you!”

DK was a completely a spent-force now, and Regenerator was a reincarnated monster packed with superpower beyond imagination, DK was facing the gravest and most critical situation, there was no exit or escape but to confront the worst nightmare he ever had in his life of being a superhero!

Regenerator shook his body vehemently and to the utter shock of DK and those who were there, it grew another four limbs from its side waist, there were now altogether eight limbs with their fists that could morph randomly into various shapes of weapons, some were clenched fists, hammer-heads, cone-shaped balls and mallet-liked ends, they surely looked ominous!

Astakine and Galactic Emperor were thrilled and they knew the defeat of their long-time enemy was impending, they looked at this superbly handsome superhero standing there with a tight chest heaving up and down that rolled the metallic-hard abdominal muscular blocks like waves, Galactic Emperor who had the greatest brutality to torture the superheroes informed Astakine that DK was not to be killed but captured and brought to his mercy. Astakine sent a brain-message to Regenerator and DK’s fate was sealed – he would be spared but being alive would be thousands of times worse than perishing!

Without much ado, Regenerator hurled both fists toward DK’s head, DK immediately raised both of his arms to block the assault but such a position exposed his strained abs completely to the mercy of Regenerator who followed the attack by ramming both hammer-head and cone-shaped fists deep into the 8-packed muscular bricks!

KAPOW!KAPOW!KABAM!KABAM!..........DK was too weak to even harden the abdominal muscles to weather the impacts, he felt the explosive pain and yelled out loud, his handsome face twisted and grimaced, both of his legs were lifted off the ground and his body was catapulted away from Regenerator. 

That’s not going to happen as another four arms extended with ease like tentacles to grab DK’s wrists and ankles, then with a powerful jerk, Regenerator pulled DK toward him with his chest and abs protruding prominently, especially the highly envied abdominal muscles shredded into ice cubes formation. Regenerator was pissed off by the spectacular sight of DK’s superbly solid muscles, he morphed the other arms into steel mallets and crushed them into DK’s unprotected abs!

ARRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!The painful scream was such an enjoyment to the ears of Regenerator, Astakine and Kuramao, they had been waiting for this moment for so long. In the past, DK had been badly thrashed before by the Alien Monsters but it had never been so intense and catastrophic. For the first time in his life as a superhero, DK felt what true pain was all about, the blasting pain spread deep inside his gut and pulverized every internal organ of his body. 

POW!POW!KRRAKKK!KRAKKK!BAM!BAM!Two pairs of steel mallets flew ferociously in the air and they landed one after another on DK’s solidified abdominal blocks, the endless pain agonised DK’s physically and mentally, he was being broken in a gradual torturous manner as he felt his body weakness deepened, what he could do was to grimace his superbly handsome face and yelled on top of his lungs. The brutal trashing went on for a full 10 minutes and finally, Regenerator saw DK rolling back his eyes, as his instructed mission was not to kill DK but to capture him alive as a gift to Astakine and Kuramao, he halted the relentless assault.

When he assured that DK was totally listless and enervated, he released the grabs and DK slumped on the ground in a thud. To his amazement, DK was still very much conscious but apparently, he was engulfed in flaming pain as he could just wriggle and moan on the floor facing down. It was the first time DK was completely defeated, the bystanders were gawked looking at his helplessness, they had seen DK suffering before but in the end, he always rose to retaliate and defeat the enemies, but not this time, things seemed to have gone awry and the chances of coming back just to escape, seemed bleak, let alone winning.

Regenerator gingerly walked toward DK who sluggishly writhed on the floor, he was still at full alert as he knew that DK could bounce back for a real surprise, but this time to his pleasure, DK could just squirm with his handsome face convulsing in great distress. Regenerator stood a distance away from DK and flipped him over with his powerful arm like a tentacle, DK groaned and now lay on his back against sharp stones and gravel. Regenerator was truly astonished to see how intact DK’s abs were after being pounded savagely with such intensity, apart from some fiery reddish welts, the eight-packed formation was still visible, heaving up and down with the demarcated muscular lines cut deeply to present a perfect musculature. 

Regenerator moved nearer and stared into the eyes of DK who still looked defiant and heroic, this was Astakine and Kuramao was extremely pissed off as they wanted him to show debilitated and subservience, they wanted to break him completely into pieces. “Destroy his abs further!” shouted Kuramao and Astakine immediately conveyed the instruction to Regenerator ecstatically, he had been waiting for this monumental moment to witness the annihilation and sufferings of this youthful superhero. Four arms of Regenerator extended like tentacles to lock DK’s wrists and ankles on the ground, then another four fists morphed into brass knuckles with sharp spikes, and then another session of onslaught began!

BLAM!BAM!WRACK!KRACK!KRACKKK!WRACKKKK!POWWWW!BLAMMMM! The bystanders were appalled to see those flying arms hurling vehemently in the air and ramming into the tout twitching bricks of DK’s abdominal muscles, they could vividly see that every fist just sank deeper and deeper into his gut, and they could hear the crushing sound of the stones and gravel on DK’s muscular back as the forceful impact was way beyond imagination. The handsomely clean-cut face of DK was now wrapped in agonizing twists and knots, the exploded pain inside his stomach was just unbearable even for a superhero like him, as the spikes lacerated his bronze-like skin and the powerful punches snapped his tightened muscular fibres. The torturous pain emitted came from both sides as the shattered stones embedded into his back muscles.

ARGHHHH……WWWWOOOOOOOWWWWOOOOWWW…..EEEEEEIIIIIIIAAAAAAA………..DK yelled and wailed at a feverish pitch as the crushing pain was destroying his consciousness, tearing his spirit apart and driving him toward the edge of submission. Nevertheless, the malicious aliens still failed to draw the response they hoped for – begging from DK. Regenerator was furious and he geared him the pounding magnitude and frequency by a few folds. DK couldn’t even move much as his entire body was immobilised, but due to the merciless beatings, his body started to hop slightly up and down, and he began to lose consciousness, he started to drift into a stage between awake and asleep. Furthermore, he just felt that each and every internal organ inside his body was hit like a rag doll, the gastric fluid was rising to his throat and eventually, he threw out as Regenerator landed all four fists onto his caved-in abdominal wall simultaneously!

OOOUUCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!DK let out a last cry and passed out for the first time during his life as a superhero. The defeat was consummated, Regenerator retrieved all his arms as he breathed laboriously, Astakine and Kuramao smiled at least as they knew that Dragon Kid was finally finished!
