"Hm. It seems like your body is…" Broly paused slightly as he looked into the open rip-cage in front of him with squinted eyes.
"…just a normal Saiyan's body. No anomalies about the organs, veins or any other part of your physical self, so it has to come from your soul.
Of course, your lifeforce is qualitatively on a higher level than normal Saiyans which strengthens your body as a whole but you don't have any mutations to speak of.
It seems the sole reason your strength rivals a peak emperor's is because of the absorbed lifeforce."
Broly then proceeded to take out some organs to have a better look at the navel area.
"The quality of your ki is subpar compared to your lifeforce, which is the reason you couldn't turn Super Saiyan naturally. Obviously, now that you are crippled, you won't ever turn Super Saiyan, which you probably already knew when you activated those cards."
Broly then looked at Pehr's face. The tears on his face had already dried up, his eyes were dim like a man who already lost hope and just wished for the salvation called death.
"Not that you not being able to turn Super Saiyan matters anymore. You will die soon anyway." Broly paused before pointing his sword at Pehr's head. The sword started glowing slightly before Broly began moving towards Pehr's scalp. "This is going to hurt much more than what you have experienced until now."
For the first time since Broly spoke, Pehr's eyes flickered, listening to what he was saying. Despair, fear and regret had already filled his mind, he just wanted to die, but he couldn't even say that with his damaged body.
The screams that had already died down after the initial start of the examination, once again returned to fill the surroundings, this time as a mumble.
The barrier that had been put over his soul was easily cut by the First Sword. As soon as a small slit appeared on the barrier, something seemed to squirm inside.
It looks like if he just opened it, his soul would directly try to flee, so instead he put a barrier of his own into the opened spot and slowly fused it with the already existing barrier, to make the soul think that its barrier was still standing. He cut away more of the barrier and replaced it with his own.
After a while, when he replaced the barrier of the soul, Broly didn't see the soul in its usual form as a ball of light or the rare cases of strong souls that mimic the physical appearance.
No, it was a ball of light indeed but attached to the top of the soul was a red-black clump of meat which had something like blood veins extending out of it and wriggling through the ball of light.
Impulses of light were moving from the soul through the veins towards the meat clump. Broly could feel the flow of energy and immediately recognized it for what it was, "A parasite.".
This, this thing was absorbing the energy that the soul was producing and had access to, like his ki and lifeforce. It wasn't taking a lot, just enough to condition the soul to be in a constantly weakened state and the changes in his body to be unnoticeable.
The disgusted feeling that he had from Pehr was now intensified after this thing was revealed. Now he knew that it was just a natural reaction from his soul towards such a parasite. His soul was clearly trying to stay away from it.
Of course, this feeling wouldn't make him turn away, not after he was done with his experiments, at least. Broly skillfully wielded his sword as he stabbed and cut at his subject. He was quickly able to identify its nature.
Without a host this parasite would immediately wither away and die. At least the parts he had cut out of Pehr's soul. It was really difficult to not damage Pehr's soul too much, but he couldn't help it as the parasite was deeply intertwined with it.
The source of Pehr's power was also discerned after a few tests. It was using a part of Pehr's soul, lifeforce and ki to create powerful and strange effects.
Broly knew that it was barely wasting any energy but the effect it was creating through this tiny amount of energy was unproportionally great. He didn't know how it was doing it as it was processed inside the parasite.
'If I know how it is using it then my powers would get even more powerful and since I am not sharing it with another creature, I would have a lot of energy to work with. I need to dissect it!'
Unfortunately, he couldn't penetrate the membrane of this parasite with his vision of truth and he couldn't just replace the membrane of this living being like he did with that barrier.
Instead, he needed to open it and observe the conversion to understand it. But how could he cut it open with it not noticing it? It would probably just escape at the first moment of notice.
He had thought of the dragon balls of Namek but after a few tests, he noticed that it could even absorb external energies like his magic. If the power of the dragon balls fell on it, would it be able to absorb it? If it did, he wouldn't know what effect it had on the parasite, but he was sure that he would be majorly screwed.
The only option Broly could think of was to use soul attacks to momentarily knock it out, but he couldn't tell if it could absorb this too.
Something made him extraordinary nervous to use his soul on it. Previously, he had just enveloped his body and fused his soul with it to destroy the attack that was coming at him but if he used his raw soul power to attack it directly, who knew if it could absorb it.
Since he was absorbing Pehr's soul, it was likely that it could, but Broly's attack couldn't compare to voluntarily providing it with energy, now could it?
He hesitated shortly before making up his mind. He fused his soul with his body to prevent providing the parasite with a target. He extended his finger and a small beam of soul power shot out. It penetrated the barrier and directly landed on the parasite. The moment his attack landed on the parasite, it vanished.
Broly's eyes couldn't hide the shock that he was feeling, his heart beat accelerated and was loudly thumping in his chest. He was alert to the fullest, nothing of god tier level speeds could escape his vision, especially with his vision of truth compressed to a few meters as he did just now. With all this he still didn't know where this parasite went.
Suddenly he saw something wriggle at the bottom of his eyes. From the finger he had shot his soul attack was a much smaller version of the parasite that was trying to get into his body.
His entire body was fused with his soul but just the spot from where his attack came from had used a bit of soul strength to turn into an attack.
This tiny spot of vulnerably was used by this parasite. If it could even be called a vulnerable spot, it was a spot from where a deadly beam came out, after all.
It has been a long time since Broly could feel the cold sweat on his back.
Unfortunately for the parasite, the sword in his other hand was glowing slightly. Broly could see the thread of light that was coming from the sword through his veins towards his finger.
Suddenly his surroundings changed, and Zeno appeared just in front of him. He talked to Broly about something of great power. Broly listened and his breath steadied and his heart beat calmed down. His expression directly turned fierce as he swung his sword with all his might and cut the parasite in two.
No illusion could cloud his vision!
Seeing the parasite split in half didn't satisfy him as he could see it still struggling towards him. It had just lost its host, now it needed another one and it couldn't get out of the barrier that Broly had set up with his sword. The only option for it was Broly!
Broly madly swung his sword and cut the parasite in hundreds of pieces. Only after it withered away, did Broly relax slightly.
He extended his vision again and looked everywhere if he had missed something, but nothing had remained of it after it had withered away.
He was fortunate that the parasite only had a speed advantage and was otherwise incomparably weak, which was probably reason why it had used such a weak host.
This 'god' that Pehr had seen was probably another illusion of the parasite to make Pehr's soul more comfortable with its presence or distract the soul like it tried with Broly just now.
Broly looked at Pehr's corpse and saw the soul's energy disperse into raw potential. It couldn't sustain itself anymore without its body and the numerous holes the parasite had left it with.
With a wave of his hand, Broly obliterated the body and then filled the sealed space with the power of his sword, destroying everything it touched.
Afterwards, he jumped of the meteor and pulverized the meteor with another attack. This experience had left him with a bad aftertaste.
He had wasted so much time without getting anything in return. The only thing this did was make Broly more sensitive towards these parasites. Even with a barrier to hide it, now he would recognize its kind instantly.
