Buu Splits

Hell, Soul Cleansing Machine.

"Clang, clang, clang."

A red-skinned imp in a green hoodie wore headphones with the music cranked to the max, dancing and vibing all by himself. In the background, the evil liquid being purged by the Soul Cleansing Machine was on the verge of overflowing.

"Hey," a blue-skinned ghost, who looked like a manager, shouted.

"..." The red imp continued to dance.

"Hey!" This time, the shout was even louder.

"..." Ignoring him...

The blue ghost's face flushed red. You're done for, you little brat!

"Hey!" The blue ghost ripped the headphones off and roared.

"Yo," the red imp greeted with a cheeky grin, completely unfazed.

"Yo your sister," the blue ghost snapped, face full of rage. "Still playing around? Do you want me to dock your pay?"

The red imp was startled, immediately putting on a pitiful expression as he pressed his fingertips together. "If you dock my pay again, it'll be like I have nothing left!"

Holy crap, just how much have you been docked...

"You know that, do you?" The blue ghost's angry face softened slightly.

Watching the manager leave, the red imp put his headphones back on. As for work... screw it.

Earth.

"Urgh, urgh, urgh."

"Pfft, pfft."

The group, having just dealt with Dabura, looked on in confusion as Buu suddenly showed signs of agony. Son Goten stood over Babidi's corpse, staring blankly at the suffering Buu.

What the hell is going on with Buu? Son Goten wondered, brow furrowed. The gas Buu was spewing this time wasn't white, but dark purple.

"What's happening? Supreme Kai, do you know?" Son Gohan asked.

Supreme Kai shook his head. "I'm not sure. I've never encountered this situation before."

"Vegeta, do you feel that?" Son Goku said with a grave expression. "This evil ki... something isn't right!"

Vegeta: ...

Damn it, I just wanted some peace and quiet with Kakarot, what the hell is going on? Now Kakarot isn't even in the mood to lovey-dovey with me... pfft, I mean, to settle our score.

(Vegeta: Come here, author, stick your head out. Let me show you a little treasure. Behind his back, an energy blast charges up...)

"Urgh, ahhh!" Buu clutched his head and screamed.

I feel like I've seen this before... Son Goten's brow furrowed as he searched his memory for this part of the plot. A flash of realization struck him. Holy crap, don't tell me Thin Buu is about to come out! But Buu hasn't encountered anything that would make him extremely angry!

Son Goten felt like his head was about to explode. This isn't right. And Broly was the same way back then. In the original story, Broly only appeared because Son Goten's crying reminded him of Son Goku. Has the whole plot gone to hell because of me?

"Buu's ki... it seems to be getting weaker," Trunks said, sensing that Buu's energy had plummeted.

"It's not just getting weaker, it's... his power is being separated," Son Gohan said, his face turning ugly as he watched the suddenly appearing Thin Buu.

The sudden appearance of Thin Buu gave everyone a massive shock. This Buu was completely different from Fat Buu: his body was so thin a gust of wind could knock him over, his skin was dark, his sclera were black, and a wicked smile hung on his face.

"How can this be... another Buu?" Supreme Kai's body trembled instinctively. He was on the verge of tears. Damn it, one Buu wasn't enough to toy with me? Now there's another one? Is the universe trying to kill me?

My heart is bitter, but I say nothing.

"This ki is even more purely evil than before," Son Goku said, looking terrified.

"So what?" Vegeta snorted. "That ki has already been weakened anyway. That brat Gohan should be able to beat him. Now, Kakarot, let's continue our duel."

If Majin Buu were standing there right now, Vegeta would have killed him without hesitation. What the hell, you couldn't have come out at any other time? You had to pick the day I was dueling? Are you trying to make things difficult for me, Vegeta?

However, Son Goku didn't pay him any mind, still focused on Buu. This made Vegeta very jealous... er, no, very annoyed.

(Vegeta-sama, let's talk this out. Put down the energy blast in your hand first. You're making this author tremble in fear.)

"Fine, I get it, Kakarot," Vegeta said, dissipating his golden aura. "If you're that worried about Majin Buu, let's go finish him off first!"

"Really? That's great, Vegeta!" Son Goku was overjoyed. I was getting tired of fighting anyway.

"Hmph, but I've exhausted too much ki. Give me a Senzu Bean first!" Vegeta said.

"Oh, right." Son Goku pulled a pouch from his gi.

Holy crap, you guys fought like that and the Senzu Beans didn't even shatter? These beans are something else.
