Time always passed within the blink of an eye. Once there was only Jaw, skipping a few thousand years and there are already over a hundred people here. All of them are monstrous in their own right. Some were reincarnated by me, some weren't. Yet in the end, those that succeed ended up here.
None of us were allies, even Jax, who had been here the longest only was here due to benefits. It seemed like by now he had caught on that I could time travel.
Not like it would do him any good, because while Jax's evolution was astonishing due to his [Gamer System] it had a limit. Though he would always continue getting stronger, endlessly, he didn't have an absolute ability.
Still, none of that mattered right now as the Citadel has achieved its duty. Initially traveling to another world with my power intact was impossible. Well, nothing in this world was impossible. Slowly, but surely, I have been weakening the barriers separating the worlds. Sure this might create a bit of chaos with world travelers, and people might get reborn left and right in other worlds. But why would that matter to me? Infinity was a big number, a couple trillion dying is nothing compared to the general gist of things.
"Yami," suddenly Jax appears next to me within an instant. His speed has long since surpassed the speed of light. So the space around him twisted and cracked unnaturally as if he was creating miniature black holes around him. "A couple of Players have been acting up."
"Kill them," I answered him before he could even ask the question. Since I was stronger than him, he couldn't just go around, possibly interrupting my plans. He didn't know what I had been up to, but Jax was smart enough to know better than to try and get in my way. "If players seem to be getting arrogant, erase their existences. Make sure you kill them though, we don't want them to be like flies."
If Jax failed on this, I would kill him. He was replaceable, there were a lot of people with Systems here that could replace him. They would be glad to do so too since Jax could essentially grow stronger endlessly.
Still, after the barriers throughout the world broke, those same Players would be able to enter the Citadel. Couldn't I go and erase their existence? Yes. But I wanted to see Jax and the others in action, keep them busy as I will have to keep things in check.
This place was nice… who am I kidding? It's boring as hell, Jax can take over if he wants. Probably wouldn't even bother stopping him. He was my successor to this place, as I trusted his abilities to keep it going and destroy anyone who might come and try to fight us.
With a thought, multiple clones sprouted out of my body. They would keep a look around, while I went into a different "adventure". It was about time I got stronger… much stronger.
So without even the need to move. My body blitzed away, Jax just looked at me. "You are rude as hell."

The next time Yami's eyes were able to catch sight of anything. He was in front of the outskirts of a world, his face was as emotionless as always, even though he was quite excused about what will happen soon.
He lowered his power, as his Chakra moved around his body like dark strings and he started using another energy. It was Nen.
Yami started using his Nen Hatsu Ability.
[Editor's Choice]
The world around him seemed to change, as Yami's monstrous Nen seemed to envelop the world itself for a split second.
Editor's Choice was an ability that took Yami's ambition to a whole new level. That and his Time Travel were the strongest he had in his possession.
Suddenly a dark portal opened behind and a small, oval-headed creature with sky blue skin came from behind it. "What are you doing?"
The creature's voice sounded childish. But Yami didn't dare underestimate it. Why? Because he knew that the creature in front of him was from Dragon Ball, and it was the strongest in there too. Zeno, the all mighty.
"Hey there little guy," Yami walked towards the creature fearlessly. "I am just here to-"
"You aren't supposed to be here," Zeno said simply, and with a pulse of energy. Yami's body was incinerated, like always, Zeno had obliterated an opponent easily.
But that was when he felt something strange, as the space around him seemed to crack and out of nothing, another Yami formed. The smile on the man's face was that of someone who had never even been obliterated, to begin with. "That's some strong power, I couldn't even resist."
Zeno looked confused. "Didn't I destroy you?"
"Kinda… in a way you did. Though sadly I have edited out the concept of death and destruction out of my body," Yami explained casually. "Also, I have edited one other thing while we were talking. Can you guess what it is?"
Zeno looked at him strangely and could feel that he can destroy the man in front of him easily. But there was something strange… Who was he?
'Why am I trying to destroy him? Yami has been a resident of this universe for a long time. I only destroy outsiders.' - thought Zeno.
***
Yami on the other hand had a smile on his face as the dangerous being in front of him went away. He breathed out a sigh of relief. "Damn, that was dangerous."
Initially, he had planned to send clones to do this, but none of them would be able to use his Nen Ability with enough precision to trick Zeno. If he failed once, then Zeno would be cautious against an ability like that. Making it essentially ineffective.
Though Yami had been in a power high, with no one able to even scratch him for many years now. Arrogance hadn't taken root at all, not even for a split second did he consider himself too powerful. His greed for more power had completely overturned any sense of pride or arrogance that he might have felt.
His Nen Ability allowed him to edit out concepts of reality itself. Yet, he never became arrogant, even with a God-like ability. That was also the main component that allowed him to enter worlds with his full power, though originally something like that was impossible.
Yami, for the first time in millennia, entered a mortal world. Immediately he teleported where earth should be. At first, he was happy, but then became disappointed when he saw that the place was filled with medieval war. "Welp, I will have to skip that."
He went and buried himself in time and went a couple of thousand years forward in time.

Bulma, a capable scientist, was looking for the Dragon Balls. She was riding in a car when she bumped into something.
Baaam!!
Her car broke down. "Was there a bolder?" She frowned, seeing smoke coming out of the front of her vehicle.
Getting out, she saw a young boy had been hit by her car and she panicked. "Oh my god! Did I just run over a young child!"
But her panic subsided once she saw that the young man got up and only had a bump on his head. "Ow! Ow! Ow! What even hit me?!"
He looked at Bulma annoyed, and only now she noticed that the young child she just hit had black, spiky hair and a tail. Immediately she pulled out a gun panicky. "Monster!"
"Huh?" Goku looked at her and saw that she had no tail. "Ahhhh! A monster!"
"Don't say that! I am the one panicking here!" Bulma yelled out, annoyed at having someone call a pretty girl like her a monster. "Don't call girls monsters!"
"Huh? You are a girl? Grandpa always told me to be nice to girls," said Goku, innocently. Bulma breathed out a sigh of relief at this, as now she knew that the monster in front of her wasn't bad. Just a naive young child, with a lot of power.
"But the Mountain God said that girls can also be tricky," added Goku. Making her curse whoever this mountain god was.
***
After a while, both Bulma and Goku got to know each other. He explained to her about his dead grandpa, and when she requested to have the Dragon Ball in his possession, he refused.
Still, Bulma wasn't giving up this easily and suggested. "How about you come and help me gather the Dragon Balls then? That way it would be better for the both of us."
'If I have this monstrously strong guy with me, nothing will be able to stop me from getting the Dragon Balls.' - calculated Bulma, trying to get Goku to her side.
"Hmmm~" he seemed to think for a little bit and then nodded. "Sure, but I will have to ask the mountain god."
'Mountain God? It is probably something he worships, hopefully, that will not get in his way.'
Bulma had plans to take Goku with her no matter what. Even if she had to manipulate events to make it seem like this 'God' was telling him to go on a journey. "So, where is this Mountain God then? Do you have a shrine where we can meet him?"
"Hmmm~" Goku seemed to think hard about this. "I don't know, he usually just kind of appears out of nowhere."
"Don't worry, I am here already," suddenly a new voice was added to the conversation. Bulma's eyes widened in shock, and she turned around. The first thing that caught her eyes was the person's dark hair that seemed as dark as space. At the same time, his eyes were like black holes.
His skin was pale and beautiful, as if it was handmade, with no blemishes or imperfections. Bulma now could understand why this guy might be called the mountain God.
'He is handsome as hell!!'
"Hi, I am the God of this mountain, though you can call me Yami if you want to," he smiled at her gently. "Also, please be mindful of what you wish with the Dragon Balls."

A/N: This chapter was supposed to come out yesterday. But it was hard to write as this story was finished years ago, and while I remembered it quite well. The files and notes I had on it were deleted. So I had to reread some of the story to rearrange and rewrite the notes.
Anyway, I will post the Weekly Poll again today. Also a GoT chapte will be coming out soon. As per today's schedule.
