With a flash, it vanished and reappeared without warning in the central plaza of a bustling metropolis.

Before the citizens could even react, a crushing pressure descended like a collapsing mountain.

The mysterious entity hovered in mid-air, Goku Black's body wreathed in eerie black energy. "From this moment on, this planet belongs to me!" Its voice, amplified by energy, echoed into every corner of the world with unquestionable tyranny.

The planet's defense systems activated instantly, firing beams of light from ground-based weapon installations toward the intruder. Yet, with a casual wave of its hand, the beams dissipated into nothingness. Immediately after, it manipulated Goku Black's hands, sending black energy surging outward like a tidal wave; wherever it touched, buildings crumbled and power grids short-circuited.

In the city's command center, a group of researchers and military generals in silver uniforms were frantically debating countermeasures. "This power is too immense; our current weaponry cannot inflict any damage!" a general exclaimed, his face etched with anxiety. An elderly scientist adjusted his glasses, his expression grave: "According to our readings, the fluctuation of this energy is ancient. It seems to originate from a mysterious entity dating back to the dawn of the universe."

Just as despair began to take hold, a young soldier suddenly shouted, "Look!" On the screens, a group of agile warriors emerged from every corner of the city, clad in specialized armor and wielding weapons that glowed with a faint blue light as they charged toward the mysterious entity.

These were the planet's elite special forces, who trained rigorously every day precisely to handle unknown crises.

The mysterious entity watched the charging warriors, a sneer of disdain curling its lips: "Overestimating yourselves."

The mysterious entity watched the charging warriors with a sneer, mocking their lack of self-awareness. Fragments of the planet lay scattered everywhere; with a casual blast of light, the surrounding buildings were instantly reduced to dust, and those who came to block the path were annihilated in the powerful wave. At this moment, the people of this planet—the Ark People—were gripped by extreme panic.

On the planet of the Ark People~

Shattered debris fell like rain, and the air was thick with the acrid smell of burning and the scent of terror. The mysterious entity stood proudly in mid-air, its body radiating a chilling, eerie light. Watching the warriors charging like a tide, it curled its lips into a sneer of contempt and let out a cold laugh, the sound cutting through the hopes of the people like a sharp blade: "Overestimating yourselves!"

With a casual wave, a blinding wave of light surged forth. Wherever it passed, the surrounding buildings were instantly pulverized, kicking up dust that blotted out the sky. Those Ark People warriors who attempted to block the attack didn't even have time to scream before they were instantly annihilated by the immense energy, vanishing without a trace.

The entire planet plunged into extreme panic. The Ark People's signature blue skin appeared even darker now, drained by fear. Despite their history of creating a glorious civilization through their immense intellect, they felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness in the face of such a terrifying entity.

Inside the planet, within a towering command building, the atmosphere was as heavy as the moments before a storm. High-ranking officials sat in a panic around a massive holographic map of the planet, watching as indicator lights for various regions flickered out one by one. The model was covered in simulated debris, and every face was etched with shock and fury.

"Who is it? Who has the audacity to openly attack our planet!" an elderly official slammed his fist onto the table, roaring. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the chaotic model before him.

"We don't know. The opponent's energy fluctuations are extremely bizarre; our detection systems have never recorded such a signal," a younger official replied, his voice trembling. His hands flew across the control panel, attempting to retrieve more information on the mysterious entity, but the data on the screen was chaotic and incoherent.

"We must find a way to stop him, or our planet and our people will face total annihilation!" a female official said, her heart burning with anxiety as tears welled in her eyes.

At this moment, the mysterious entity continued its frenzied assault. In the sky, the Ark People's military formed tight formations, wielding laser weapons and piloting small starfighters as they launched a new wave of charges. Engines roared, and laser beams shot toward the mysterious entity like a dense meteor shower.

"Fire! For our home, for our loved ones, do not retreat!" the military commander screamed through the communication channel, his voice filled with resolve and tragic heroism.

However, the mysterious entity merely glanced at the incoming attacks with contempt and unleashed a wave of light.

In an instant, the seemingly powerful laser beams and starfighters were like fragile bubbles before this force, annihilated completely. The light of explosions flickered in the sky, yet it could not illuminate the despair in the hearts of the people.

"Hahaha!" The mysterious entity's laughter echoed across the entire planet. "Old ghosts, I've returned! You annihilated me back then, so it's only fair that I return today to exterminate your descendants, isn't it? Hahaha!" The laughter was filled with madness and the thrill of revenge; every word struck the hearts of the Ark People like a heavy hammer.

"Who are you? We Ark People have never had any grievances with the outside world; why must you drive us to extinction?" the military commander shouted, forcing himself to suppress his fear.

The mysterious entity looked down at him from above, its eyes filled with mockery: "No grievances? Your ancestors sealed me in endless darkness to suffer for the sake of gaining power. Today is the day to collect on that blood debt!"

Inside the command building, the officials looked at one another, their expressions terrified. "This... what is this about? Our historical records have never mentioned such a thing!"

"Regardless, we cannot sit here and wait for death. We must immediately initiate the emergency protocol, evacuate the citizens, and mobilize all defensive forces. We must hold out until we can devise a countermeasure!" the elderly official gritted his teeth and issued a series of orders.

Though the Ark People's military had suffered heavy losses, they did not give up. Wave after wave of warriors charged toward the mysterious entity without hesitation, knowing full well it was like a moth flying into a flame, yet they refused to retreat.

They used their own lives to protect the planet that had nurtured countless souls, guarding their homes and their families. Meanwhile, the mysterious entity continued to vent the hatred it had harbored for countless years amidst this endless resistance, leaving the entire planet teetering on the brink of destruction, its fate hanging in the balance.
