DWOAH: The Gorillaz vs The Guy

Deadliest warriors of all history

The Gorillaz vs The Guy

Music as a Weapon!

The Gorrilaz info:

Height: Varies between them

Weight: Varies between them

Notable Members: 2-D, Murdoc, Noodle, Russel, Del, Cyborg Noodle

Weapons: Bare Hands, Instruments, Shotgun, Uzi, Katana, Zombie Gorillas

Strengths: Noodle is skilled in Kung Fu and physically strong enough to take out opponents several times her size and weight in a single blow (one shot-ed a Zombie Gorilla with a single kick when she was still a child), Russel’s now massive size grants him great strength and durability, As a robot Cyborg Noodle can take injuries that would outright kill humans and keep fighting, Del can summon Zombie Gorillas via rapping.

Weaknesses: 2-D has little to no fighting ability and is simply a meat shield for Murdoc, Murdoc is cowardly and will happily sacrifice his bandmates to defend himself, Russel goes comatose when Del is active.


The Guy aka Morbus info:

Height: 7 foot

Weight: 320lbs

Weapons: Bare Hands, Chains, Dual Sawed-Off Shotguns, Grenades, Cosmic Energy

Strengths: As a being of cosmic energy and a physical representation of anarchy and freedom Morbus has unnatural strength and durability (able to lift a several ton satellite and throw it from Earth into the sun effortlessly), His Shotguns have unlimited ammo and do not need to be reloaded, Can survive the vacuum of space and travel through the atmosphere at high speeds without injury on his motorbike, Can fly unaided, His very presence inspires revolution causing even the most downtrodden of people to stand with him against their oppressors.

Weaknesses: Despite his great durability Morbus isn’t immortal or impervious to damage (bullets still hurt him and he can be overpowered if outnumbered and mobbed at once), When he uses his Cosmic Energy to attack he is literally ‘throwing himself’ at his enemy meaning if he uses it too much he will die and disperse because of it.

Battle begin!

“Don't stop, get it, get it

We are your captains in it

Steady, watch me navigate,

Ahahahahahhaa.

Don't stop, get it, get it

We are your captains in it

Steady, watch me navigate”

And with the repetition of ‘feel good’ from 2-D Feel good Inc. came to an end ending the Gorillaz concert, the crowd watching in a hypnotized state chanting their name making Murdoc grinned maliciously. What his band mates didn’t know was that he had in fact made a second deal with the Devil, selling 2-D’s soul in exchange for the guaranteed success of the band on a global level, uniting the planet under one flag of the Gorillaz fan base.

In all extents and purposes, he had the world in the palm of his grimy shaking green hands.

Basking in his superiority complex as the crowd continued to chant their name as the show ended Murdoc and the rest of the band’s attention was suddenly drawn to the sky as a thunderous noise erupted through the air, suddenly almost like…a guitar riff?.

“RELEASE ME!!!!!!”.

The entire band flinched and stumbled as the almost battle cry tore through the sky and shook the entire arena followed by a sonic boom as something broke through the earth’s atmosphere. What looked like a meteor rushing towards the stadium until it got closer to which they realized that it was in fact a man on a motorbike. “What the bloody ‘ell?” 2-D gasped as the man got closer and closer until finally crashing down into the crowd, the people scrambling to get out of the way as the bike touched down with a fiery crash creating a mixture of every major religious symbol fused together burning it into the ground.

Upon the bike the rider looked both human and Demonic in appearance, his skin a pale almost ghostly white along his bare musclebound arms whilst the rest of him was covered in ripped almost robe-like clothing upon clothes that rivalled that of the biggest metal head complete with long rusted chains wrapped around his bare arms. A large hood covered the man’s head completely masking his face in shadow save for his blood red eyes and jagged yellow teeth which seemed to glow in the darkness of the hood.

As Morbus dismounted his bike the crowd around him started to wake up from their trance, his very presence breaking the hold the Devil’s deal had over them, the crowd parting like the Red Sea as Morbus made his way towards the stage. “Who the ‘ells this wanker?!” Murdoc spat as The Guy marched to the stage “oi dickhead! No getting in without paying!” he shouted before suddenly losing his backbone as Morbus stepped onto the stage without using the stairs to tower over him and 2-D “uhhhh, you deal with him Face Ache!” he then stated shoving 2-D forward whilst back peddling several steps towards Russel feeling far safer near the massive drummer.

“What?! Why me?!” the vocalist complained before looking up at the towering Demon, swallowing thickly as his hands began to shake, Noodle and Russel both showing an equal amount of nerves as Morbus stared down at 2-D “roight…ok…listen mate…always ‘appy to meet a fan and all that but you can’t crash the concert…ok?”.

Staring down silently at the blue haired man Morbus sighed internally, having been watching the Gorrilaz actions for some time now he knew 2-D was innocent in the grand scheme of things, just Murdoc’s punching bag with no real choice in anything the band did but he was still a part of it and since the Gorrilaz had forced the world into one group effectively eliminating freedom of speech and individuality he had to act. As 2-D rambled on Morbus suddenly shot an arm forward wrapping a massive hand around 2-D’s head muffling his voice.

Before crushing his skull ending his life instantly and painlessly.

Noodle gasped with horror whilst Murdoc and Russel stared in silent shock as Morbus released 2-D’s body letting it collapse to the stage floor. The deathly silence soon began to fade away however as music seemed to emanate from Morbus’s very body.

"You are! Enemy!

You are my hated enemy!

I am! Enemy!

Number 1 rated enemy!"

As the lyrics of Conflict echoed from Morbus’s body he reached under his robes to pull out his Sawed-Off Shotguns sending the rest of the band scrambling for cover. Diving back stage Murdoc frantically pulled out Cyborg Noodle’s activation switch turning the robot version of their lead guitarist on. Its eyes snapping open and its head jolting up from its previous slumped position the Cyborg looked to Murdoc for instructions “kill that son of a bitch!” the green skinned man snapped pointing at Morbus who was busy unloading rounds at Russel which the drummer took well thanks to his titanic size.

With the command set Cyborg Noodle grinned maliciously reaching back to pull the Shotgun from her back, cocking it before marching out to the stage to get Morbus’s attention which she did via a blast straight to the chest. Recoiling slightly from the shell to the chest The Guy turned his attention to Cyborg Noodle, the robot signalling Russel to step back which he did backing up as much as he could without crushing the building behind him.

“All around the world enemy!

They’re tearing up the ground! Enemy!

They’re drawn in by the sound!

Enemy! Enemy! I must eliminate my enemy!”

Grinning wider as Cyborg Noodle cocked its Shotgun Morbus readied his only to stumble slightly as he felt a powerful kick slam into the back of his leg. Looking back he found that the real Noodle had joined in the fray and had delivered a blow to his leg when he wasn’t looking allowing Cyborg Noodle to fire another shot at him scoring him in the shoulder.

As his righted himself after recoiling The Guy simply just grinned wider as if welcoming the challenge, reading his Shotguns Morbus swung around to strike Noodle away with the butt of one of his Guns whilst firing at the Cyborg clipping its arm as it combat rolled away revealing the metal and circuits underneath. Unfazed by the damage Cyborg Noodle fired again using one hand to hold the Shotgun whilst using its left to reach for the Uzi on its hip, aiming and firing both firearms at Morbus who proceeded to tank every bullet to his back as he put away his Shotguns to fight the real Noodle hand to hand.

Utilizing her much smaller lither build Noodle evaded Morbus’s punches with ease, the Demon sending his fist through the stage floor with every hit as more and more of the crowd began to snap out of their trances and run out of the stadium to safety. As Morbus slammed his fist into the floor again Noodle delivered a powerful kick to the side of his head making him stumble back only to suffer a powerful Shotgun blast to his back from the Cyborg, the pain only making him grin wider however as a couple of his fangs fell from his face.

As another spray of Uzi bullets ran along his body Morbus redrew his Shotguns and fired back at Cyborg noodle faster than it could react to blasting off its right arm ridding it of its Shotgun whilst the second shot tore off a sizeable chunk of its head, its oil blood shooting out as it staggered but remained on its feet. ‘Bleeding’ heavily from the skull the Cyborg shakily raised its left arm to resume shooting as the real Noodle avoided a narrow Shotgun blast, the guitarist front flipping across the stage to grab her Guitar to use it as a Weapon.

When she swung it however she found that it smashed uselessly across The Guy’s head leaving her perfectly open to a Shotgun blast to the chest, her body flying limply across the stage to land on Russel’s drum set lifeless. Upon seeing Noodle’s death Russel lost it, surging forward ready to crush Morbus under his massive feet before suddenly his enraged expression fell slack and his head slumped forward as Del emerged from inside of his head. As the Ghost rose the ground underneath the crowd began to shake and rumble before suddenly a legion of Zombie Gorillas began to rise out of the dirt.

“Finally, someone let me out of my cage

Now, time for me is nothing, ‘cause I'm countin' no age

Nah, I couldn't be there, now you shouldn't be scared

I'm good at repairs, and I'm under each snare”.

As Del began to rap the Gorrilas danced towards the stage menacingly drawing Morbus’s attention, the Demon just grinned wider as he kicked Cyborg Noodle away before making his way towards his new opponents.

“Intangible, bet you didn't think, so I command you to

Panoramic view, look, I'll make it all manageable

Pick and choose, sit and lose, all you different crews

Chicks and dudes, who you think is really kickin' tunes?”.

Hopping down from the stage Morbus opened fire on the Zombie Gorillas blasting the first few away as they charged him.

“Picture you getting down in a picture tube

Like you lit the fuse, you think it's fictional”.

As one Gorilla jumped on his back The Guy suplexed him over his shoulder crushing its skull on the ground before blowing another ones brains out with a Shotgun blast.

“Mystical? Maybe, spiritual hero who appears in you

To clear your view when you're too crazy

Lifeless to those, the definition for what life is

Priceless to you because I put you on the hype shit

You like it? Gun smokin', righteous with one toke

Psychic among those, possess you with one go”.

As Del continued to rap Morbus decided it was time for a song change, the music emanating from his body dying down before starting up again with the sounds of an air raid siren. The loud noise making the Gorillas pause before an explosion of guitars and drums erupted from Morbus’s form sending the Zombies staggering back.

“Another mission! The powers have called me away

Another time to carry the colours again!

My motivation, an oath I’ve sworn to defend!

To win the honour of coming back home again!”.

As the lyrics of Indestructible boomed Morbus fought even harder as if empowered by the song as it drowned out the rest of Del’s rap and with more Shotgun blasts and a few Grenades the Zombie Gorrilaz were dealt with and Del retreated into Russel’s head causing the drummer to wake up again. Shaking his head to fully wake himself up Russel then brought a huge foot down upon Morbus who raised his hands to catch it, near effortlessly holding the massive drummer back.

“I’ll have you know that I’ve become

INDESTRUCTIBLE!”

As the song continued to blare out Morbus threw Russel back causing him to stumble and crash back onto the stage giving the Demon time to remount the stage, The Guy casually strolling up to Cyborg Noodle who struggled to get back onto its feet, the Demon grinning down at the Robot before destroying what was left of its head with a brutal curb stomp ending its struggles.

Stepping away from the now pile of scrap Morbus turned back to Russel only to receive a massive boot to the face sending him flying back across the stadium where he crashed into the seats on the other side. As Morbus touched down hard Russel ran across the stadium to which The Guy threw several Grenades at his face, the explosions making the Giant stumble before Morbus used his Chains to latch onto him dragging him forward until he landed flat on his face.

As he hit the deck however Russel snapped his hands forward to clasp them around Morbus catching him in a vice grip, pinning his arms to his sides to prevent him from fighting back as the drummer then proceeded to try to squeeze the life out him “kill my fuckin’ friends, will you? You’re a dead man” Russel growled as Morbus struggled in his grasp.

Thrashing wildly Morbus then suddenly stopped grinning even wider at the drummer before his hands started to glow “what are you…MOTHER FUCKER!!!” Russel then roared as his hands were suddenly blasted through with Cosmic Energy burning gaping holes through both making him drop The Guy.

Scrambling back as his hands were now rendered useless Russel stared at Morbus with shock “what? Who are you?!” he questioned making the Demon pause before letting out nine simple words.

“I’m the hand of God, I’m the Dark Messiah”.

And with that Morbus shot a hand forward firing another blast of Cosmic Energy straight at Russel’s face, the beam entering through his mouth making his eyes, nose and ears start to glow as his body was filled with several kinds of fatal radiation before his skull exploded ending the drummer’s life.

As Russel’s body crashed to the ground Morbus realized there was still one left casually making his way to the backstage where he found Murdoc cowering in a corner “waitwaitwaitwaitwait! Listen mate! We can work summat out! What do ya want? Money? Women? Drugs? I can get you anything you want man!” the bassist tried to reason as Morbus towered over him raising his hands and closing his eyes.

When he felt nothing after a few seconds Murdoc then slowly opened his eyes to find Morbus walking back to his bike. Letting out a sigh of relief believing he had been spared the bassist then realized he was holding something.

A Grenade without its pin.

“OH FU…”.

Grinning as he heard the explosion behind him Morbus mounted his bike starting the engine, with the Gorillaz gone Murdoc’s deal with the Devil was nullified meaning their hold on the world was lifted restoring it to its natural state of free thought and anarchy. Content that his work was done Morbus then took to the sky rocketing out of the atmosphere to return to space to wait until someone else dared to forcefully unite the world under one flag.

Winner: The Guy

Another battle that I wrote for shits and giggles after getting back into The Gorillaz I must say this was a very enjoyable fight to write. Unfortunately, though for The Gorillaz the only members of the band that could put up any semblance of a fight against The Guy/Morbus were Noodle, Russel and Cyborg Noodle along with Del to an extent thanks to his power to summon Zombie Gorillas.

Morbus on the other hand is Demon level at the very least to the point that the only being to remotely overpower him was another Demon as shown in The Vengeful One’s music video. Russel did have a shot strength wise but because of simply being human he couldn’t defend himself against the Cosmic Energy that Morbus can release offensively allowing The Guy to take the win.
