Chapter 15 - Chapter 15 – Everything Is Canon, So Nothing Is Safe

Xicor wakes up in a dusty valley outside of Mount Paozu, barely healed and still ragged from his last fight. His memories are fragmented, but his instincts are sharper than ever.

Suddenly, a voice echoes:

???: "You're fast… but your footwork's garbage."

A wiry figure in red steps from the mist: Master Shen… yes, that Master Shen—somehow fused with versions of himself from Dragon Ball, GT, Heroes, and even the "Dragon Ball SD" manga.

He introduces himself as a "Martial Archive Keeper," a martial arts historian who watches over the forgotten styles lost between timelines.

Over 2 weeks, Xicor trains in:

The Crimson Fang Style – A deadly, close-range striking style once used by Demon Realm hybrids.

Cosmic Flow Fist – An elegant, evasive style based on ki-guided movement.

Zero Stance – A style used by gods to completely erase presence and movement.

Xicor (panting): "So… I just dodged my own punch. Am I trippin' or ascending?"

Xicor's training is cut short as the skies split open. Portals appear across the mountains, and he's thrown into a rapid sequence of universes. It's like anime channel-surfing on crack.

He crash-lands in the Ruins of West City, surrounded by mutants and ghosts. A scythe nearly beheads him—until it's stopped mid-swing.

"You're not from here… but you bleed like a Saiyan."

Standing there is Goku Black, but this version is different—he's not Zamasu. This Goku Black is a multiversal clone created during the Demigra Crisis from a forgotten Xenoverse arc. He's been hunting fragments of the Spiral Anchors—artifacts that can tether fractured realities.

They travel together, where they're soon joined by:

GT Pan (now older and wildly overpowered from training with 100-year-old Goku)

Hatchiyack (reformed, now controlling his hatred using meditation techniques he learned in the Hellverse)

Vegeta Jr. (accidentally brought from the end of GT timeline)

Android 21 (Good side only… for now.)

Pan (smirking): "So you're Xicor? You scream edgy protagonist energy."

Hatchiyack: "But his heart… is fractured."

Meanwhile, Frieza and Broly, now decked out in modified Spiral Armor, are obliterating god-realms and alternate timelines. They tear through the timelines of Dragon Ball Heroes, DB Online, and even the Live Action Movie-verse in search of Spiral Anchors—mysterious artifacts that stabilize reality.

Frieza (admiring a Spiral Anchor): "One step closer to bending all stories to my narrative."

Broly (in deep thought): "So much death… why does this feel familiar?"

Back in the Spiral Realm, Kami of War stands atop a fractured star, gazing into the Void of Concepts.

He speaks to an unseen figure:

"You sealed me long ago, Dragon God. But I returned—because stories crave conflict."

Suddenly, in a massive reveal, the silhouette of Zalama, the original Dragon God and creator of the Super Dragon Balls, materializes behind him—fused with decayed Time Energy.

Kami of War: "I am your forgotten shadow, Zalama. Your other self—the one who made war, not wishes."

Zalama's eye flickers open. Reality shivers.

As the timelines collapse and his friends get scattered, Xicor touches one of the Spiral Anchors. Visions hit him like lightning:

His mother.

The fall of Caelix and Rigor.

His own death in multiple realities.

The Kami of War's blade driving into his chest... again and again.

Xicor (screaming): "ENOUGH!"

His body glows. His hair bursts into white-gold flames—a precursor to something new…

Spiral Saiyan Form 1 – where timeline echoes fuel his power.
