"The Starborn Discipline"
Planet Cereal — Skies above the Continent
As I stand before the coiled body of the Cereal Dragon Toronbo, my voice cuts through the cosmic air.
Cumber:
"I wish to inherit the knowledge, training discipline, and fighting style of a warrior from Universe 11…
Jiren the Grey.
Grant me access to his full power—but only as I grow strong enough to wield it."
The ground shakes but.....it's the pulse of my soul that feels this shaking.
Toronbo's eyes flash bright white.
The Dragon pauses.
Then… the sky explodes in light.
Toronbo (booming):
"Very well… A wish unlike any I have ever heard.
The star of solitude and strength—Jiren the Grey—his knowledge, his control, his path… shall become yours." I have granted your wish I bid you farewell."
A storm of energy surges from the Dragon Balls — not external power, but data, memory, instinct. It pierces my mind like lightning. I drop to one knee as my brain and muscles convulse, syncing with the rhythm of a living sun.
Cumber (gritting my teeth):
"Ghhh—His mind… it's like standing next to a star. So heavy. So controlled…that unyielding boundless Will power"
For him, might makes right. I agree. I will rise with absolute strength.
I see his life — not his memories, but his grit.
The slow, brutal repetitions. The years of silence.
The density of his ki.
The crushing force of his gravitational willpower.
How he condensed emotion into discipline.
How his Power Impact is just the beginning.
And the final echo I feel:
"Strength is absolute. So I became strength."
Then I stand up
SYSTEM NOTIFICATION
[STELLAR DISCIPLINE ACQUIRED]
Jiren's training method unlocked
Techniques & style will become available based on battle power thresholds
I can now outmatch opponents up to 2x my current power level via ki control, counter-pressure, and density
Cumber (quietly):
"Jiren… I understand now."
The Dragon Balls shoot into the sky, vanishing.
Toronbo disappears in a blaze of energy.
Beside me, Lyra slowly stands.
Lyra (wide-eyed):
"What… what was that?"
"You didn't just wish for strength… you want a path to follow but....I won't let you beat me with a wish."
I lift my eyes toward the stars, silent.
And smirk
Cumber (softly):
"Now I forge the body that matches a boundless mind ."
HOURS LATER — In Orbit
Lyra and I board the ship again. Her shoulder's bandaged now. Her eyes are watching me more closely.
She sits across from me, her knees pulled to her chest, her bag resting nearby.
She looks to my direction
Lyra:
"You said you'd answer any question. So… here's mine."
I look at her
Lyra:
"Why are you really doing this? You're strong. Smarter than most adults I've met.
You could have left the galaxy behind. But you're here. With me. With these ancient orbs. Training what for."
I glance at her, calm, then respond in my usual cool tone.
Cumber:
"Because I've seen the future.
I know what's comiNg
And I'm excited for the battles to come.
But if I don't get strong enough… I'll be erased."
A long silence.
She stares at me — no longer with suspicion. But… curiosity. Respect. Maybe fear.
Lyra:
"...Then don't leave me behind I wish to survive and no longer be weak ."
Cumber:
"You won't be. I'm going to need a sniper who can shoot between dimensions."
We both smirk at the same time.
A flash of memories
of my father and mother
A sayain tall women from an ancient tribe of sayain not from planet Vegeta, my father a demon or a human.
I can't tell but the power I sense from them.
my mother says " I'm sorry.... fight for our clan we have been wiped out by a destroyer he is a mouse "
I see the burning the ruins the fire the died and the flood of all the memories, of the people and how.... they lived peaceful and I played with their kids now ruins is left and now.
I see a beam hit the ground and it shakes and collapse then I'm launched in a pod , as I leave I see a purple.....Huw and it grows large and it touches the beams of other sayain warriors that and hybrid sayains.
that clash back but their beams are slowly erased like nothing....then as I leave the atmosphere I see the planet disappear ,into purple partials then I black out .
Memory ends
( "Cumber" )
"That was my people my family... all.. gone "
And I feel the rage my eyes flash red and green then ...
my eyes closed.
I calm down.
" it's not the time "
Planet X-17 — Return to the Time Rift | 4 Days Later
The ship descends over the volcanic plains of X-17. The Time Wound pulses in the crater below, glowing brighter now… almost like it senses my change.
I step out of the ship. Lyra is at my side. She's already charging a small ki bullet between her fingers, just to test herself. I note how focused she is. Cerealian precision.
Lyra (looking at the rift):
"So that's it, huh? Time flows ten to one inside?"
"What's the plan?"
I face her
Cumber:
"Ten years. Pure isolation. No distractions.
My body will match the density of my mind."
I walk toward the rift, armor glowing with red-black ki as my aura is wrapped around it. Lyra follows, lowering her mask.
"A Body Worthy of Power"
First Half of the 10-Year Rift Arc: Years 1–5 Inside | (Rift Time)
~Unknown Time Outside
X-17 | The Rift World — Timeless Space
Inside the Time Wound, the world is gray, endless, and heavy.
The ground is black obsidian, scarred and cratered. The sky is a mirror of stars twisted in space, and the air is thick with pressure — as if the Rift itself resists my existence.
But I do not break.
I endure.
I train.
I suffer.
I evolve.
Year 1–2: The Grind Begins
I begin with brute repetition:
10,000 push-ups on one arm, under 50x gravity.
Dodging ki bullets fired by Lyra — each aimed precisely at pressure points: joints, neck, heart, spine.
Left , right, and I move a high speed.
Meditation under falling debris, replicating Jiren's gravity-dense void state. With my aura slowly moving around me like a shield of pressure.
Blind combat, learning to sense and redirect Lyra's fire mid-spar.my sense high I use my ki to feels the channels,in the space and in the transfer it will go... a head of time then dodge.
The first dozen attempts end in blood.
My ribs shatter. My jaw cracks.
My organs rupture as Lyra's ki penetrates my defense.
Cumber (panting, one eye swelling shut):
"Again…"
I stand back up shaking
Lyra (hesitating):
"Cumber, you'll—"
Cumber (growling):
"Again!"
Fire in my eyes
I rise.
Burning. Broken. Growing.
And the Zenkai Boosts come — not rapid, but deep.
The Hanma bloodline begins to mutate with each brush of death.
My bones thicken. My heart rate becomes like a drum of war.
My muscle fibers tighten like iron cords.
SYSTEM UPDATE:
Battle Power increased: 200 ➝ 5,000 ➝ 30,000 ➝ 120,000 ➝ 250,000 ➝ 500,000 over the 5 years.
Each increase is earned through pain.
Year 3–4: Fusion of Blood and Beasts
By the third year, I no longer train to survive. I train to conquer.
My strikes carry a sub-sonic hum — a result of raw vibration from ki-packed muscle.
I layered my ki with my muscles and fused it that way so my body... is also strengthen in base so, I can use the stronger strength like jiren does even in base . I punch and the air moves with my fists I feel the power.
Lyra (observing me from a distance):
"He's not fighting like a Saiyan anymore...
It's like his blood is boiling. His steps shake the ground."
My body begins to show uncontrolled mutations during intense sparring:
Veins glow with red-black pulses.
My pupils narrow like a primal beast.
My ki begins to pull inward, creating a Jiren-style pressure field.
Now it's time to see if I use a zenkai boost for this.
Cumber (growling during meditation):
"Great Ape… and Hanma… become one in me."
A image of a giant ape with bright eyes with yellow inside them ,roars to the sky the boundless power.
I study the Oozaru state — but instead of surrendering to rage, I compress it, storing the energy in my humanoid body. I feel the power condense and flow into my body.
And a demon like figure that I can't see yet with eyes all red no pupils, the coldness and instinct from its aura.
I begin to merge both powers into one
A proto-form begins to awaken in my dreams — a silhouette twice my height, armor and rage ki, my eyes burning stars. With green ki and irises green.
[LOCKED FORM UNLOCKING]
Name: Ikari Demon
Condition: Use of controlled primal force + survival of death-state and cold instinct to evolve
Status: 35% Synced
Lyra's Role — Cerealian Training Arc
Meanwhile, Lyra becomes my perfect sparring partner.
Her blue eye adapts to sense not just weak points — but internal ki irregularities.
She invents a sniper-style technique:
"Echo Bullet" – Fires a pinpoint ki shot that delays impact, destabilizing internal ki flow on detonation.
I survive her bullet — barely.
Shot at me
But with it, I learn to:
Compress my ki to shield weak points
Shift my muscle tension mid-strike
Reflect ki bullets with Jiren-style eye-pressure blasts
By year four, she can't land a hit without using sniper traps.
Lyra (watching me dodge mid-air, mid-flip):
"He's not dodging anymore. He's… reading me.
"Is this what he wished for…"
But neither of us know the true danger forming outside the Rift…
Year 5: The Butterfly Effect Begins
At the midpoint of my 10-year training, my power hits 500,000, and my combat has begun to resemble that of Jiren's fighting style:
My Energy Punches send shockwaves
I levitate without aura flare
My pressure field can knock back lower-tier blasts without effort
But in my meditation… my eyes snap open.
Something feels off.
Cumber (low):
"The Rift… it's shifting. Something's wrong."
Lyra:
"You said it was ten to one, right?"
Cumber:
"...That's what I was told. But what if it's not anymore?"
Outside… time has changed.
Unseen by me, the Frieza Force has noticed my silence.
Granolah's life has deviated.still taken care of my monito.
A shadow from Universe 6 has begun to move early.
And Goku… has already met Raditz.
My very existence has created a fracture.
The butterfly effect has begun.
Phenomenal.
I've taken the chaotic bloodline of Hanma, the primal devastation of the Saiyan Great Ape, and fused them into something entirely new.
Something terrifying. Something… evolving.
And now, as the universe moves forward without me — the butterfly effect in full bloom — I return.
Not as a child. Not even as a warrior.
"The Rift Opens"
Year 10 in the Rift | Real-Time: Age 762 (Post-Frieza Saga)
X-17 – The Time Rift Exit
The rift begins to crack like glass. Time howls. Gravity bends.
Lyra and I step out into the real world again — my red-black aura flickering silently. I am 15 years old, but my eyes hold the calm of a battle-worn general.
I'm taller now — 6 feet of carved muscle and divine control.
My long hair flows behind me like black fire with red and green threads, part of it tied into a warrior's bun with a thin ki-band.
My aura… alive, shifting like mist and fire, ready to respond to my will.
And Lyra — no longer the street-sneaking child.
She's taller, hardened. 5'7", athletic, and graceful. Her blue-green hair tied in a combat braid, her dual-colored eyes sharper than ever.
Cumber (low, calm):
"We made it out."
Lyra:
"But… it's not the same, is it?"
I look around. The stars have changed. The people feel lighter. Technology is more advanced.
I approach a Zeltraxian trader near the crash site.
Cumber:
"What year is it?"
Zeltraxian Merchant (blinking at my presence):
"A-Age 762. Frieza was killed just months ago by a warrior in golden light…"
My heart skips.
Cumber (quietly):
"He did it… Kakarot."
I close my eyes. Not in jealousy.
But in realization.
I'm too late .
Cumber (thought):
Eighteen years. The world passed me by.
But I am no longer a pawn of fate. My path is my own. And I will ascend it.

Lyra (grinning):
"You wanted a partner. I'm not going to be your shadow, Cumber. I'm going to be your mirror."
Destination: Earth
I walk up the ramp of a sleek, black stealth cruiser. Custom-forged on X-17 before my departure. Designed to bypass Frieza Force sensors and planetary scans.
We both sit in the cockpit. Lyra straps in and types coordinates.
Cumber (looking at the stars):
"Earth. I must meet them. Kakarot. Vegeta. Piccolo. The ones who inherited the destiny I was denied."
I close my eyes as memories flash.
Lyra (softly):
"And if they reject you?"
I open my eyes
Cumber:
"...Then I'll surpass them without their help. But I will offer it first."
My eyes harden, flicking with green light for just a moment.
Cumber (low):
"Soon… I'll challenge the myth. In My way."
Earth — Landing Approaches | ETA: 3 Days
Goku is on Yardrat, training.
Vegeta is recovering from Namek.
Future Trunks is less than 3 months away from arriving.
And Earth… has no idea that a storm is coming.
The timeline has bent.
The players have changed.
But destiny is not yet sealed.
"The One Who Stared Back"
Post-Namek | Age 762
Earth – Eastern Mountains, Midday
The wind howled between jagged peaks and misted canyons.
Birds scattered. Small animals fled.
There, atop a cliff, two figures trained alone.
Piccolo, cloak billowing, hurled a heavy strike.
Gohan, breathing hard, deflected it with raw force — still unrefined, but growing.
Piccolo:
"Again! You hesitate when you're unsure. Feel the rhythm of my attacks!"
Gohan (panting):
"Y-Yes, Mr. Piccolo!"
Suddenly—
SKKRRRRRRRRRSHHH!
A ship descended overhead. Silent. Sleek. Black as obsidian.
Its energy signature was blinding — but cold and compressed like a neutron star.
Piccolo (eyes narrowing):
"Get ready."
The hatch opened.
I stepped out.
Cumber.
Six feet tall. Muscular. Calm.
Red-black hair partly tied back.
My tail was gone — scarred at the base. A memory of when I trained I had to seal the great ape power .
My aura faint, coiled inward like a loaded spring.
Lyra walked behind me — her arms folded on her chest.
I descended slowly floating, arms at my sides, scanning the field.
SYSTEM SCAN ENGAGED
Piccolo (Battle Power: 2,000,000)
Gohan (Battle Power: 1,100,000)
Cumber (voice deep, composed):
"So this… is Earth. Not much of a challenge after all."
Piccolo (stepping forward):
"Who are you? State your business. Now."
Cumber (smirking faintly):
"This planet caught my attention. I've decided to take it."
A heartbeat of silence.
Gohan (startled):
"W-What?! You can't just—!"
Piccolo (arm raised):
"Gohan. Stay sharp. This one's not bluffing."
I raised my hands.
Cumber (calmly):
"Come at me. Both of you. If you can stop me… I'll leave."
Lyra (crossing her arms, watching trying to hold back a laugh):
"Haha ...Hmph. He's being polite today."
SPARRING BATTLE INITIATED:
Cumber vs Piccolo & Gohan (Tag Team)
I remained in base form — but my body was vastly evolved.
Using only 500,000 base battle power, I was evenly matched with Gohan and Piccolo.
But my Jiren-derived technique, combat adaptation quickly turned the tide.
Piccolo lunged first, fists flying. Gohan followed, attacking from the side.
Aura control: dense red aura forms around my forearm
Cumber (blocking with forearm):
Solid power. But open at the hip—
I twisted midair, letting Piccolo's punch graze past
Pressure barrier: teh air bends and pressure repels most the force of the strike.
— and struck Gohan with a precise palm under the ribs. He staggered.
Piccolo:
"You analyzed us before we moved!"
I said nothing — but the green flash in my iris flickered once.
SYSTEM:
[VITAL ANALYSIS] Active — movement patterns recorded: 48%
Aura control: dense red aura forms around my forearms.
I parried their combo again, stepping forward,
landing a rising
Micro Power Impact to Piccolo's gut — compressed to only 10% power. It sent him skidding. Then I lift my arm up and close my fist.
Boom
The orb exploded
I turn to face Gohan.
Piccolo (thinking):
What technique was that? That wasn't Saiyan. That was… calculated.
He shakes and comes out from the smoke and hill side
I began layering my aura pressure around them — invisible forces making it harder to to hit me .
Aura control: pressure and my ki use my sense to feel the channels of energy in space...to dodge ahead.
Cumber (calmly):
"I can manipulate the air around your attacks. See?"
Piccolo fired a ki wave.
Special beam canon.
Aura control: into my eyes for more power then...
Eye Blast repel: a pressure and force from a glare
I redirected it around my shoulder twist of pressure — it curved off harmlessly.
I dove into melee with Infinity Rush Light — my fists becoming a blur.
With many spots hit at high speed
They blocked and countered, but each impact pushed them harder.
With high speed after images of my fists
Gohan (gritting teeth):
"He's not even serious yet!"
I suddenly stopped. Eyes glowing white for a second.
Then I disappeared.
Reappeared above.
Cumber:
"Try to catch this."
Aura control: on fists
I gathered ki — but shaped it inward, compressing it covers my fist Overheat punch.
A glowing aura formed around my hand, rippling red and green.
Shockwave punch: a long range fists shaped pressure blast launches fast towards them
"Burst Impact."
I struck the ground in front of them — unleashing a shockwave that knocked both of them back 50 feet. And the dropped down to base as they felt chills.
Not lethal. But overwhelming.
Dust cleared.
They both struggled to stand.
Miles away—
Tien (training):
"That energy spike… it's not Frieza. It's something new!"
Krillin:
"It's near Piccolo and Gohan!"
Yamcha:
"Let's move!"
They all began flying toward my location — and would arrive soon.
Piccolo steadied himself, cloak torn.
Piccolo (panting):
"You're not… just here to conquer."
I finally lowered my stance. The smirk faded.
Cumber (calm):
"If I was, I wouldn't have held back."
Gohan (looking at me, eyes wide):
"Who… who are you?"
I glanced down at my palm — the energy still humming in my veins.
Cumber (closing my fist):
"My name… is Cumber. I am one of the last Saiyans..
And I've come not to rule…
but to train..
And I will be the strongest in the universe."
Silence.
Just then — Yamcha, Tien, and Krillin landed nearby, confused and ready to attack.
Lyra stepped forward, two fingers pointed like rifles , hand raised.
Lyra (coolly):
"If you're planning to jump him, you'd better bring a god to help you ."
Far out in space in the universe a ship moves at high speed.
On earth
Krillin:
"Do you feel that gohan? That incredible ki.
On a far distant planet a figure is moving around restless
"King Kai "
No THAT can't be possible ...
That feels like Frieza
Gohan looks at piccolo and then
Picaclo:
"How can it be!"
Vegeta:
"Kakarrot you imbecile!..he must have spared his life. "
Tien:
"That ridiculously high ki with it..."
Cumber:
"And he is not alone huh..king Cold."
Lyra:
"I thought u said Goku defeated him.."
Cumber:
"Well looks like he survived ....those frost demons are tenacious....I'll give em that."
And in space in the ship
Frieza is a mix or robotic and cybernetic enhancements .
Mecha Frieza:
"That's earth papa.....
It seems that we're due to arrive ,earlier then the Super sayain! WHO PUT ME THROUGH ALL OF THIS."
A large figure behind frieza appears in the second form of frieza speaks.
King Cold:
"Such small planet.
We could wipe it out with a single shot."
Mecha frieza :
"No ,that would Not leave me satisfied.
I want to show him something MY POWERED UP FORM."
Mecha Frieza:
"I can see on our radar.
Your already on earth as well.....soon I will show you which of us is Truly the STRONGEST in all the universe. "
Goku:
"Woah that power... hard to believe frieza got so strong , im excited to fight him and that energy with him it feels just as powerful..."
Vegeta :
"No kakarot this time I'll kill that bastered!"
Outside the earth atmosphere a ship is slowly descending.
We all look up as the clouds clear as a universe ship lands
