Lord Drakkon vs. Ohma Zi-O

## Description

*Two men cast out from their time, once donning the heroic outfits of yore that made them powerful, now seek the proof of their strength by beating their alternate selves. Which ruler will reign supreme in the end?*

## Interlude

Hiro: No hero is ever perfect. Some may even fall to their worst flaws and to the side of evil, becoming a monster unlike anything they were before.

**MBStarscream: And now, two such monsters, those who rule across space and time, shall finally clash.**

Hiro: Lord Drakkon, the tyrannical Green Ranger.

**MBStarscream: And Ohma Zi-O, the despotic Kamen Rider.**

Hiro: I'm Hiro Hamada.

**MBStarscream: I'm MBStarscream.**

Hiro: And it's our job to examine both warriors' strength, abilities, weapons, and weaknesses to see who would win in a fight.

## Lord Drakkon

Hiro: Have you ever wondered what would've happened if Tommy Oliver, rather than defecting from under Rita Repulsa and joining the Power Rangers, instead stayed evil the whole way through?

**MBStarscream: Well, wonder no more, 'cause in an alternate universe, that's exactly what happened.**

Hiro: He and Rita's forces soon defeated the Power Rangers of his world, and then he overthrew her and became the ruler of Earth, taking a new name along the way.

**MBStarscream: This was Lord Drakkon now, and he had more than enough power to make the world his for the taking. Eventually he tried to expand his rule to the primary dimension, and when that failed, tried stealing enough Morphers from across time and the multiverse to make him strong enough to control all reality.**

Hiro: Then, he was beaten by the Power Rangers, most personally the main timeline's Tommy Oliver. After his defeat, Drakkon was imprisoned in his own decayed dreamworld pocket universe, alone, for a very long time-- time flowing differently there, his imprisonment was significantly longer than on the outside.

**MBStarscream: He kinda went nuts in there.**

Hiro: Newly insane and trying very hard to survive by any means necessary, he started working for the Empyreans, infiltrated the Omega Rangers and eventually left them for dead after regaining his original powers. Then, he took control of a horde of space vampires and helped the Rangers kill the Empyreans, because all he can do is double cross people.

**MBStarscream: Now he's just sort of out there, in space, no doubt up to no good.**

Hiro: Like all Rangers, Drakkon uses the Power Morpher to change into his costumed form, which grants him access to their costume along with enhanced strength, speed, and durability. As an alternate future version of Tommy Oliver, it can be assumed that Drakkon is just as skilled, if not much more skillful, than his previous self, even calling his previous self "his lesser self". Furthermore, it is strongly implied that he managed to defeat the rest of the Rangers and even their Zords at some point in the future, further showing his frightening skill and strength.

**MBStarscream: Remember that his "lesser self" was strongly hinted at being able to handily defeat the entirety of the Power Rangers. And due to their similar fighting styles, Drakkon should know all the martial arts that Tommy's mastered, like karate, kenpo, taekwondo, judo, and shinkido.**

Hiro: In his initial form, Drakkon has access to a combination of the Mighty Morphin' Green and White powers, and after beginning his campaign to steal as many Ranger powers as possible, his first victims were the Samurai Power Rangers. Thus, in this form he has the White and Green Mighty Morphin powers, along with the Samurai powers.

**MBStarscream: His third form goes even further with the added Zeo powers, as well as, likely, Turbo and Dino Thunder. He eventually also added the RPM, Space, Megaforce, Lost Galaxy, Operation Overdrive, Dino Charge, and Jungle Fury powers to the list, and by the time he reached his final form, he had absorbed enough Ranger power to enter the Morphin Grid and reshape reality to his whims using the Heart of the Master.**

Hiro: Drakkon used this to create a world where he's a hero, beloved by all and opposed by none. However, his subconscious guilt creates monsters that he must constantly fight, lest they destroy his utopia. At the peak of his power, he was able to defeat the Emissaries Three, who exist outside and above reality, disregarded and would be undamaged by the fracture of 21 timelines, ignored and were unharmed by the destruction of the infinite multiverse, see the fourth dimension of time as limited, and are one with the Morphin Grid itself.

**MBStarscream: Drakkon's personal weapon is the Dragon Dagger, which can be used to summon the Black Dragon by playing it like a flute, project green concussive blasts of energy, and easily tear apart other Zords. He also wields Saba, an enchanted shortsword that can somehow form portals to move between the universes fractured by the Morphin Grid thanks to magic incantations.**

Hiro: He can create gateways to different dimensions with the Green Chaos Crystal, control an android replica of himself, and uses the Black Dragon as his own personal Zord. The Black Dragon can alter its size to be larger than Dragonzord to 30 stories tall or small enough size to fight hand-to-hand with his opponents. It can unleash a sonic frequency that destabilizes the Power Rangers morphed forms, and can casually knock out the Blue Ranger with them.

**MBStarscream: The Black Dragon can also fire powerful blasts of energy from the palm of its hands that are able to send the rangers flying with a single blast, and easily defeated the Dragonzord. It can do a thunderclap to send foes flying, and was still functional after the Dragonzord crashed into it and losing one of its arms. It has the ability of size-alteration, shooting blasts of energy, phasing, and able to absorb power from his opponents. It was able to take down the Dinozords with ease, and can be remote controlled.**

Hiro: If a Zord wasn't enough, Drakkon also commands the Tyrannosaurus, Mastodon, Sabertooth, Pterodactyl, and Blue Samurai Sentries, all of which come with their own weapons, some able to demorph Rangers with a single strike. All of this combined with his growing power makes Drakkon a formidable foe, but *not* invincible by any means. He tends to highly underestimate his opponents due to his god complex preventing him from seeing the potential threats before him, and his biological structure is heavily weakened to the point of approaching failure due to the sheer strain of maintaining so many power sets at once.

**MBStarscream: He can also be cowardly without his power, and he's got quite an ego on top of his god complex. But when you have as much power as he is, it's easy to let it get to your head. Literally.**

Hiro: Be very grateful that Tommy ultimately chose to fight for good, because Lord Drakkon is the ultimate testament to what could've been. And to say what could've been was bad is a gross understatement.

*Lord Drakkon: We will invade their worlds. We will tear down everything that might protect them. And then when it's too late, when they're powerless and alone, they will realize the truth. They could've been gods.*

## Ohma Zi-O

Hiro: Sougo Tokiwa was just your average high school student who always wanted to become a king. His fate is forever changed one day when time travelers from fifty years into the future appeared, one of whom told him that he accomplished his dream, but at a dire cost.

**MBStarscream: Gee, I wonder where this is heading.**

Hiro: And so, Sougo met the Kamen Riders that came before him and became a hero instead, taking the name of Kamen Rider Zi-O. Crisis was averted... or so it seemed.

**MBStarscream: On a day called "Ohma's Day", a very different Sougo successfully conquered Earth and became a very different Kamen Rider. This... was Kamen Rider *Ohma* Zi-O.**

Hiro: In his rise to power, Ohma Zi-O devastated the world into ruins and wiped out half the population. As others travelled back in time to stop his rise to power, Ohma Zi-O sent his prophet Woz to the year 2018 to ensure his past self completed his journey into the Demon King.

**MBStarscream: With the exception of Woz, everybody, including his younger self, have tried to dethrone him in one way or another, and it's never been easy for any of them. Because when you've managed to kill half of humanity itself before ruling over the rest with an iron fist for the next fifty years with no one able to stop you, you're plenty tough.**

Hiro: It has reached the point that any and all of his most prominent foes who wish to dethrone or have him killed had to travel back to *before* he even became Zi-O in the first place because his power is that overwhelming to directly confront in any capacity. He can send out disintegration rays, manipulate velocity and time, and even has telekinesis.

**MBStarscream: He's said to be so strong that his power alone can destroy space-time itself, along with all infinite worlds. Even in a weakened state, he could merge all worlds and dimensions in the multiverse into one, where he could select a successor for his power, and he's killed Decade Complete 21, whose death restored the multiverse to its original state after it was destroyed.**

Hiro: As the physical embodiment of the concept of Heisei, Ohma Zi-O will always return as long as it exists, and he contains every aspect of reality within and rules over them, which makes him immune to their effects. Good and evil, light and dark, inside and outside, they're all his to control. He's even capable of sensing other parallel worlds and knowing everything his younger self is doing in the present and recognizing Hiryu Kakogawa's timeline overwrite effect.

**MBStarscream: Speaking of time, Ohma's got complete control over that too. He can stop and reverse it any time he wants, or create time portals to send his younger self back to his current time.**

Hiro: Ohma possesses the power of every single Kamen Rider across the multiverse up to the year 2068...

**MBStarscream: *So* close!**

Hiro: ...and would be able to function semi-permanently in any battle as no damage will accumulate no matter how stressed or damaged his muscles are. In addition, Ohma's middle sash is said to generate and provide him with a seemingly inexhaustible supply of biological energy, making him unstoppable in combat.

**MBStarscream: But one thing *can* stop him: If Sougo dies, he'll die too. Classic paradox.**

Hiro: But this is only temporary at best, as Ohma's able to come back from pretty much anything, like when Hiryu erased the entire Heisei era on a conceptual level. His power admittedly *does* make him quite arrogant, but as we've seen, that arrogance isn't without merit.

**MBStarscream: And when Sougo decided to reverse the damage that Swartz caused at the cost of his powers, all Ohma did was laugh and say that he was glad he got to meet his younger self before he disappeared, so he's got some grace at least.**

Hiro: This Sougo has definitely attained his wish to become a king. The greatest in history.

*Ohma Zi-O: You fools could never hope to defeat me. Do you know why? Because I was born to be king!*

## Fatal Fiction

*Mario flips a coin.*

Hiro: Well, it only feels appropriate for these two future overlords to fight over an Earth that's already been destroyed. Who will keep their crown?

**MBStarscream: We're screwed.**

*Post-apocalyptic Earth*

Earth.

What was once a planet of life and peace was now an apocalyptic ruin where hundreds, no, *thousands* of slain Power Rangers and Kamen Riders lay on the battlefield, pieces of Zords scattered around. Ranger Sentries of various colors and legions of Dai Mazines were all that were left, only concerned with fighting their own battles...

On behalf of their leaders, who stood face-to-face with each other in this desolate arena.

Standing less than two meters apart from each other, the two tyrants paid no heed to the destructive carnage around them. Their only focus was the fellow despot in front of them.

The despot that each one hoped to dethrone today.

"Surrender your throne to me, king." **Lord Drakkon** commanded, hands folded behind his back patiently. "You've done well in conquering this Earth, I'll admit, but I have come to take it from your hands."

**Ohma Zi-O** wasn't amused in the slightest. "Many have foolishly tried to dethrone me, interloper." He said before taking a kung fu fighting stance. "What makes you think you'll fare any better?"

In response, Drakkon unfolded his arms and readied his Dragon Dagger. "Because I..."

**FIGHT!**

"...am a GOD!" With that savage yell, Drakkon charged right into battle.

He gave a great swing of his Dragon Dagger, but Ohma easily managed to disarm him and engage him in fisticuffs, each warrior letting out grunts and yells of effort with each blow they threw and block. Drakkon flipped Ohma over him before readying Saba and swinging at Ohma, who swiftly dodged every swipe of the sentient blade. Leaping backward, Ohma sent out several disintegration rays at Drakkon, who blocked each shot with Saba before brandishing his Dragon Dagger again and firing green energy blasts from it that met Ohma's disintegration rays head on.

While locked in their clash, Drakkon didn't notice a time portal opening behind him until Ohma rushed forward and kicked him into it, following him in just before it closed. Within the boundaries of the timestream, Ohma tackled Drakkon as they passed by different Power Rangers and Kamen Rider timelines, all while Drakkon punched Ohma's head repeatedly in a bid to make him let go. Drakkon could've even sworn that he saw a timeline that showed his lesser self fighting a wandering world warrior clad in white...

Ohma only grabbed Drakkon's fist and threw him into the nearest Power Rangers timeline. The Earth Drakkon landed on was considerably less devastated than the one he and Ohma had just fought on, as he landed in Angel Grove Park and got up to see...

Power Rangers.

Five of them, locked in battle with a savage beast. Before he could get his bearings, Ohma came in from behind him and hit his head with a punch. The two tyrants resumed their battle, neither them or the Power Rangers paying heed to the other.

Proving to be dead even in close quarters, Drakkon and Ohma jumped apart before the former let out a yell as green energy erupted from him, evolving to his first evolution form. He charged again, only for Ohma to open another time portal in front of him and let him run into it. Before long, both were back in the timestream as before, and once more, the two locked in battle amidst their course through time.

Ohma suddenly raised a hand into the air, and the very flow of time seemed to stop as Drakkon and the timestream froze completely, giving the fallen Kamen Rider ample time to kick Drakkon into another timeline. Ohma charged at Drakkon again, and they continued their battle through various realities of both Power Rangers and Kamen Rider until they ended up in a favorite dimension of Drakkon's.

The World of the Coinless.

Landing in the remains of the Thunderzords, Drakkon emerged with his Dragon Dagger ready and... started playing it like a flute, to Ohma's confusion.

"What are you--"

His question was answered by thunderous footsteps, and then a mighty roar as the Black Dragon made its appearance.

"Attack, Black Dragon!" Commanded Drakkon, pointing at his Zord's target, who took another fighting stance. The Black Dragon, ready to carry out its master's orders, sent Ohma flying with a thunderclap, but Ohma managed to stop himself in mid-air and fire disintegration rays at the Zord. The Black Dragon countered with blasts of energy from its palms, until Ohma managed to do a flying dropkick that tore through the Zord's chest and out its back, easily destroying it.

Drakkon met Ohma head-on with his own kick, the force of their collision shattering reality once more. They proceeded to exchange blows that produced the same reality-shaking effect until Drakkon suddenly evolved into his third stage and uppercut Ohma into the air. He jumped into the air to slash him multiple times with Saba before preparing one last finishing swing, only for Ohma to grab the blade before it could cleave right through him. Drakkon tried to stab him with the Dragon Dagger in response, but Ohma grabbed his wrist, putting them into a grapple.

Then, with nothing more than a headbutt, Ohma sent Drakkon flying into another timeline.

Every hit they dished out shattered each reality they were thrown into like glass, the multiverse itself barely able to contain the sheer scope of each fighter's power. Time? You can forget about it. It was smashed to *pieces* the moment both started going all out.

And Drakkon wasn't even at full power yet.

Soon enough, Drakkon got his hands on a Morphin Master's heart and eagerly absorbed, finally completing his transformation. Now on even footing with Ohma, they managed to cancel each other out various times as they clashed through infinite worlds and realities until they landed back on the destroyed Earth in which their battle had started.

And it's where the battle would end.

Readying their strongest attack, Drakkon and Ohma charged at one another with their fists drawn, their yells building up to roars until they each threw a punch.

The clash of their two most powerful attacks proved destructive enough to annihilate their *multiverse*, enveloping everything in darkness before cracks in reality formed and emitted a bright, white light. Drakkon then awakened in a white void, now reverted back to his base form as he looked for any sign of Ohma. Seeing none, Drakkon chuckled before breaking into evil laughter.

"What is a king to a *god?!*" He cackled.

His victory was short-lived when a hand wrapped around his throat.

"Good question."

Drakkon could see Ohma holding him in the air, looking at unfazed as he'd ever been.

"But let me ask *you*, Lord Drakkon: Were you a god to begin with?"

With nothing else needed to be said, Ohma raised a hand to reverse time, deaging the once feared and mighty Lord Drakkon to a meek, young and terrified Tommy Oliver, who could do nothing as Ohma tightened his grip more and more until his neck produced a wet snap and his whole body went limp. With a future Tommy dead, there *was* no Tommy in the timeline period, as the Tommy held in Ohma's grasp faded away from history until the king was left alone in the void.

Using reality manipulation again to revert the void to the destroyed Earth, Ohma walked back over to his throne and sat down, overlooking the battlefield that now only contained a single white helmet.

**FATALITY!**

## Results

**MBStarscream: Ohma God, that was awesome!**

Hiro: And *very* close. Both were roughly even in stats, so even in fact, that both were basically able to destroy whole multiverses. So how did Ohma take the win when both could pretty much do the same thing and counter each other verbatim?

**MBStarscream: It's quite simple, really. Drakkon had a weakness, and Ohma didn't.**

Hiro: Ohma could come back from the dead no matter how he was killed off, while Drakkon was not only insufferably arrogant, but also gradually being weakened by the sheer amount of power he was absorbing from various Rangers. And with being able to experiment with time, either combatant *could* go back and kill the other's past self for an easy win, but the Morphin Grid can split Drakkon's past and future into multiple timelines in order to protect him from any paradoxes such as that. Meanwhile, Ohma was vulnerable to that, as going back in time and killing Sougo would erase him from existence, but Drakkon couldn't really do that, seeing as how Ohma was able to come back from pretty much anything else he threw at him.

**MBStarscream: With both dead even in stats at their strongest and the sheer amount of hax Ohma had at his disposal, Lord Drakkon had *Zi-O* chance of winning.**

Hiro: Ohma Zi-O wins.

## Advantages

### Ohma Zi-O (Winner)

* Nearly impossible to put down
* Drakkon wasn't really capable of killing Ohma in the past, while Ohma could easily do the same to him through time manipulation
* Matched Drakkon in stats while arguably surpassing him in hax
* Dead even in combat
* Drakkon was slowly dying by the amount of power he had, while Ohma had no such issue
	+ Drakkon's arrogance didn't help matters
