The Dark Factor (暗黒因子 Ankoku Inshi) is the life energy possessed by the Dark King.
Overview[]
Mechikabura formed by Dark Factor
The Dark Factor can be used to resurrect a Dark King who has been sealed away or can be given to another demon to turn them into the new Dark King.[1] An enhanced Demon God state can also be achieved by one who uses a small amount of the dark factor.
The Dark Factor can be manipulated for a variety of purposes, it can be used by its progenitor to manifest himself as a spirit, possess the energy's new host, to manifest weapons, for a variety of attacks, as well as an energy source - great enough to power up the Universe Tree.
Usage[]
As the first Dark King, Mechikabura's life force directly relates to the Dark Factor. After his defeat and subsequent sealing, his Dark Factor was dispersed and unknowingly entered the nearby Time Patrollers. Later, Towa, who wished to transform her son Fu into the next Dark King, extracted the Dark Factor from the Time Patrollers, using a small portion of it for herself to achieve an enhanced Demon Goddess state, while granting the rest of it to Fu so he could become the next Dark King, unlocking an enormous level of power.
After Fu was defeated, the remainder of the Dark Factor manifested as a ghostly visage of Mechikabura. Demigra soon after pierces him with his staff, absorbing the final Dark Factor remnants to become the Dark King. Robelu would also absorb some of the Dark Factor to achieve her enhanced Demon Goddess state.
Dark King Demigra gave some of the Dark Factor in order to transform Xeno Syn Shenron into his Transcended state. Shroom, Salsa, and presumably Putine, Gravy, and Xeno Dabura were also given Dark Factor, allowing them to re-acquire their second Demon God states.
