Vegeta: There Was Once an Ultra Instinct Before Me
"You think I've reached my limit?" Vegeta retorted, unwilling to accept defeat. "That's impossible! I will definitely become a powerful God of Destruction in the future!"
"Aaaaaah!"
Vegeta suddenly gathered a huge amount of energy in his hands and blasted it towards Frieza below.
Upon sensing Vegeta's immense energy, the expressions on the faces of Goku and the others present changed.
"Vegeta, do you want to destroy this planet?" Piccolo shouted angrily.
Frieza had originally intended to avoid it.
Upon hearing Piccolo's voice, Frieza's eyes narrowed, and he leaped into the air.
"Ha!"
Frieza kicked the falling energy blast.
With a muffled thud, Frieza's kick sent Vegeta's energy blast flying into the sky.
Vegeta felt another 100,000 points of critical damage, and his pupils lost their color.
"He...he actually killed me with just one kick..." Piccolo was stunned, his face contorted with shock.
"That was Vegeta's full-power attack!" Krillin almost cried. "That guy is too strong!"
"I'm scared..." Kale gripped Gohan's arm tightly.
Gohan: "..."
I'm scared too.
"This is terrible! I didn't expect him to be so terrifying!" Goku took a deep breath, and suddenly a dazzling light, like stars, condensed around his body. "Get well soon, my body!"
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Goku used a tiny bit of Angelic Power he had gathered to heal his body.
Instantly, Goku's body, which had recovered halfway, began to heal rapidly.
"Now it's my turn to attack, right? I'll go easy on you..." Frieza snorted, his smile growing even brighter. "Are you mentally prepared?"
Vegeta was utterly despondent.
For the first time in his life, Vegeta felt an immense shock and devastation. The true terror and decisive defeat left him feeling utterly disappointed.
"Dedede..."
Vegeta cried.
For the first time, he wept because of terror and despair, and lost his will to fight.
"Call out!"
Frieza leaped into the air and slammed his head heavily into Vegeta's body.
Vegeta spat out a mouthful of blood and his body tumbled in the air.
Frieza also somersaulted, but his somersault was more spectacular. He suddenly appeared directly above Vegeta and delivered a flying kick, sending Vegeta crashing down from the sky.
"Boom!"
Vegeta crashed onto the Planet Namek landscape with a wail, but made no attempt to resist.
You should just kill me already.
This world is too tragic.
Even if I mastered the art of destruction, I would still be no match for Frieza.
Frieza is absolutely right. How could I possibly become God of Destruction?
Vegeta was truly desperate and had lost all will to fight.
Frieza slowly landed next to Vegeta.
Piccolo, Gohan, Krillin, Kale were all terrified and dared not move.
"I hope my body gets better soon..." Goku was trying to heal himself. "Damn it... even if I get better, I won't be able to use Ultra Instinct!"
However, at this point, Goku couldn't care less about anything else.
If he doesn't get proper treatment, he might not even be able to leave Planet Namek.
I need to get myself back in shape quickly so I can have a proper fight with this guy.
Vegeta, hang in there a little longer.
"Smack!"
Frieza used his long tail to hook Vegeta's neck, lifting him off the ground and raising him high in the air.
It's worth mentioning that when Frieza was in his second form, Krillin cut off his tail.
However, after it was restored to its true form, the severed tail also grew back.
With his neck constricted, Vegeta was struggling to breathe and coughed twice.
"Bang!"
Frieza delivered a powerful punch directly to Vegeta's spine.
"Puff..."
Vegeta coughed up blood.
"By the way, you can come and help him anytime," Frieza said with a smile, looking at Goku and the others.
Piccolo, Krillin, and Gohan were all terrified.
Kale was so frightened that she hid behind Gohan, too afraid to show herself.
That's absolutely terrifying.
It's absolutely terrifying.
Why did my Merus send me to this place?
I want to go home.
I want to go back to Sadala.
Because of fear, Kale wanted to cry but couldn't.
"Bang!"
Frieza threw another punch.
Vegeta coughed up blood again.
"Call out!"
Frieza casually tossed Vegeta aside, slamming him onto the hill.
Vegeta bounced back again and fell down from above, looking like a corpse, too lazy to even move.
"How boring. You don't even dare to fight me. Although killing you now is a bit premature, I'll still give you a quick death. Torturing you is no fun anymore." Frieza showed a disappointed look on his face.
"Vegeta is going to be killed, Luo Tian, are you really not going to do anything about it?" Merus turned to ask Luo Tian.
"Never mind, let him be. This is his experience," Luo Tian sighed.
"Perhaps for Mr. Vegeta now, death really is a relief," Whis mused.
"Whis, it's much more pleasant to communicate with you," Luo Tian praised.
Merus: "..."
I decided to remain silent.
You've struck at me again, without my noticing.
"Mr. Goku's injuries have been healed, but unfortunately all his Angelic Power has been exhausted..." Whis looked at Goku and smiled at Luo Tian, "Oh dear, it seems that I am the winner of this bet."
Luo Tian smiled without saying a word.
The Prophecy Fish also looked on curiously, but didn't say anything.
Merus had just been dealt another blow by Luo Tian, so he simply stopped talking.
After all, in Merus's view, Goku and Vegeta had no chance of winning.
"Alright, it's finally done!" Goku took a deep breath and stepped forward.
"What? You're going to help Vegeta? You finally have the courage to step forward?" Frieza smiled contemptuously.
"Goku..." Krillin looked worried.
"Dad!" Gohan hurriedly.
"Frieza, let's have a good fight now," Goku said solemnly.
"Hmph, you low-level warrior with Battle Power of only 2, you also came to join the fun? Wouldn't it have been better to just run away earlier?" Frieza sneered.
"Kakarot... you..." Vegeta stared wide-eyed at Goku, unsure of what to say.
Vegeta suddenly sensed that Kakarot's energy seemed to have increased significantly.
How could this guy have improved so much?
"Even if they are low-ranking warriors, I will never let them go!" Frieza said with a mocking laugh.
"Really? Then give it a try." Goku's expression was solemn.
"Take this!" Frieza kicked Goku hard in the face.
However, Goku was faster.
"Bang!"
Goku leaned to one side, braced his right hand on the ground, and kicked Frieza in the face.
Frieza winced in pain, tumbled several times in the air, regained his balance, and landed steadily.
Immediately afterwards, Frieza rubbed his face, which had been kicked so hard, and looked at Goku across from him with a cold expression.
"Smack!"
Frieza extended his finger and aimed it at Goku's body from a distance.
"Goku, watch out!" Krillin exclaimed in alarm.
"You're too arrogant!" Several streaks of red light shot out from Frieza's fingertips.
A bright red streak of light shot towards the direction where Goku was.
Seeing the red streaks of light rushing towards him, Goku calmly stretched out his hand and slapped them away, sending them flying in all directions.
Frieza was stunned, his face showing utter astonishment.
"What? You blocked it completely with just one hand?" Frieza's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Hahaha... Hahaha!" Vegeta burst into laughter. "Frieza, you'd better show us your true power! Let me tell you, this guy will become the successor to the Supreme Kai!"
Frieza was stunned, his expression growing increasingly cold.
Frieza suddenly remembered that after his son died, the Supreme Kai actually came over in person.
Then, that bastard Supreme Kai glared at me and knocked me unconscious.
Is this Saiyan going to become the successor to the Supreme Kai?
"Although the Supreme Kai isn't as powerful as the God of Destruction, crushing a tiny ant like you is still a piece of cake!" Vegeta sneered. "Frieza, you're doomed! You'll be crushed to death by a god sooner or later!"
"Call out!"
Frieza snorted coldly, and a stream of light shot out from his fingertip, piercing directly through Vegeta's heart.
Goku was greatly alarmed.
Piccolo, Krillin, and Gohan were also stunned and couldn't say a word for a moment.
Kale was so frightened that her face turned deathly pale, devoid of any color.
"Now you understand, right? I don't like people making fun of me." Frieza snorted.
"Ah... pfft..."
Vegeta was spitting blood continuously, and it was clear he was not going to survive.
"Vegeta!" Goku was extremely anxious and rushed forward to try to unleash his Angelic Power to heal Vegeta.
However, Goku had already used up all his Angelic Power and was unable to heal Vegeta.
"Smack!"
Vegeta, however, managed to grab Goku's wrist with difficulty.
"Vegeta, I can't use my Healing Technique anymore... Hang in there, wait for Luo Tian to come and save you," Goku said hurriedly.
"I... I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for Luo Tian." Vegeta, tears streaming down his face.
Goku was speechless.
"Piccolo ..." Vegeta looked at Piccolo with difficulty again.
Piccolo: "..."
"Tell me, has my wish come true?" Vegeta asked through gritted teeth.
"Now that things have come to this... I'll tell you the truth," Piccolo said in a deep voice. "I'm sorry, but I've transferred all your wishes onto Gohan."
Gohan taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what was going on.
"I knew it!" Vegeta snorted. "Namekian, I don't hate you!"
Piccolo remained silent.
"Kakarot, if you manage to leave here alive, and you ever meet Luo Tian again, tell him..." Vegeta said, his expression growing increasingly excited.
"Tell him what?" Goku was taken aback.
Vegeta suddenly widened his eyes, pointed at Goku, and shouted, "Kakarot... you must become an excellent Supreme Kai! Defeat Frieza with the power of the Saiyan!"
"I...I understand." Goku nodded solemnly. "Although I may not be his match."
"You told Luo Tian ... There was once a book called 'Ultra Instinct' placed in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. I only regretted it when I lost it. If God could give me another chance... I would... I would..." Vegeta's voice grew softer and softer as he spoke.
Vegeta finally breathed his last when his last sound was barely audible.
"Vegeta!" Goku said in a deep voice.
"Finally breathed his last. I must say, his vitality was quite tenacious," Frieza sneered from the side.
"You cry, you entrusted me with this, is it because you failed to get what you wanted?" Goku sighed, then suddenly grinned at the ground beside him.
"Bang!"
There was a hole in the ground.
Goku gave Vegeta a Princess carry and gently placed him in the pit.
"I understand. You're not angry because your Saiyan brethren were killed, are you? You must be crying because of your helplessness against that guy and your regret for your past choices..." Goku muttered to himself. "I don't hate you. I've never hated you. You are the pride of the Saiyan! Let me share in that pride."
As he spoke, Goku buried Vegeta in the surrounding soil, then slowly stood up and turned to look at Frieza.
"I am Saiyan grew up on Earth. For the Saiyan and Namekian you killed, I will defeat you!" Goku shouted.
"Nonsense!" Frieza scoffed.
"Leave this to me, you guys stay far away," Goku instructed Piccolo and the others.
"Let's go!" Piccolo took off without hesitation. "We'll only get in the way if we stay."
Krillin immediately flew into the sky, looked back, and found Gohan, seemingly unwilling to leave.
Kale stood closely behind Gohan, hesitating for a moment.
They've all left, what are you still doing here, Brother Gohan?
Kale wanted to leave, but felt safer only by staying with Gohan.
"Dad, please take care of yourself. You must defeat Frieza!" Gohan shouted, grabbing Kale's wrist and flying into the sky.
Seeing that Gohan and the others had left, Goku's anxious heart was slightly relieved.
This time we can fight properly.
"Oh dear... I wonder how long Mr. Goku can hold on?" Whis sighed.
"Whis, bringing Vegeta's soul here isn't against the rules, is it?" Luo Tian suddenly asked.
"No, but the premise is that we can't revive him for the time being. If he is revived, he might not be able to resist going down and causing trouble again." Whis pondered. "Although even if he goes down and causes trouble, it won't have a big impact on the situation, it's better not to revive him for the sake of fairness."
"Let's intercept him here before his soul reports to the Underworld, otherwise we'll have to go to the underworld to bail him out," Luo Tian said, pointing his Scepter at the air.
"Smack!"
Suddenly, a soul appeared in the space.
This soul entity has the appearance of Vegeta, but its body is in the form of a soul.
The soul was floating high in the sky, seemingly devoid of consciousness.
Before entering the Underworld, a soul generally has no consciousness.
After all, for the soul, this is a different world.
Only when the soul reaches the Underworld will it regain consciousness.
Once dead, the soul is attracted by a special magnetic field and floats to the Underworld on its own.
The same applies to Vegeta.
However, Vegeta's soul was caught by Luo Tian as it drifted along, and with a flick of his finger, it flew to Luo Tian's side.
"Smack!"
Luo Tian snapped his fingers at Vegeta.
Vegeta suddenly opened his eyes, looking completely astonished.
"Luo Tian?" Vegeta was taken aback. "Where am I?"
Luo Tian remained silent.
Vegeta seemed to realize something and immediately looked down at his body.
"What... what's wrong with my body? Why has it become like this? Am I dead?" Vegeta exclaimed in horror.
"That's right, you are dead." Luo Tian nodded. "The reason I called your soul here is so that you could enjoy the battle between Goku and Frieza."
Vegeta: "..."
"You can summon my soul to your side?" Vegeta was stunned.
"Keep your voice down... If King Yama, finds out, he'll immediately drag you back and throw you into hell." Luo Tian lowered his voice.
Vegeta's expression changed slightly, and he immediately looked around, quickly noticing Whis and Merus beside him.
"It's you? Galactic Patrol!" Vegeta recognized Merus.
"Hello, Mr. Vegeta," Merus greeted.
"I'm not okay, I'm already dead," Vegeta replied.
Merus: "..."
"I remember you...aren't you the servant who was with Beerus?" Vegeta's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked at Whis.
"Yes." Whis nodded.
"Back then, Luo Tian gave you the sausage to eat, right? And then you gave him a book on Ultra Instinct!" Vegeta felt that his mind was much sharper after he died.
No, it shouldn't be called a brain.
Because there is no brain after death.
This is a kind of consciousness!
Consciousness that is transmitted directly without going through the brain.
That's why Vegeta felt his brain was much more agile.
"Not bad." Whis nodded again and smiled. "I remember Mr. Luo Tian once gave this book to Mr. Vegeta that he could use it for training, but unfortunately Mr. Vegeta didn't care about it at all."
Vegeta lowered his head, filled with regret.
"Luo Tian, have you ever given sausages to my sister?" Whis asked.
Luo Tian: "..."
Your question caught me off guard.
"Not yet." Luo Tian shook his head.
"My sister probably likes sausages with a unique flavor," Whis said with a smile.
"You'd better not say anything." Luo Tian waved his hand.
Whis: "???"
Why won't you let me speak?
Does this sentence have any special meaning?
"To allow you to see the battle between Goku and Frieza more clearly, I specially created a projection for you." Luo Tian said, waving his Scepter, and a projection of the battle appeared on the scene.
Vegeta immediately looked in that direction.
In the projection, Goku Wukong and Frieza are engaged in a fierce battle.
The two exchanged dozens of blows in an instant.
"Whoosh!"
Goku swiftly appeared behind Frieza and struck him with a powerful palm strike.
Frieza vanished from his spot in a flash and reappeared behind Goku.
"Call out!"
Frieza unleashed an energy blast from his hand, which hurtled toward Goku at incredible speed.
Goku pushed his hands forward and caught the incoming energy blast.
The energy blast carried Goku's body, causing Goku to slide backward.
"Bang!"
Goku's body crashed into the hill behind him, leaving a long mark on the hill.
"Hey!"
Goku gave a powerful push, sending the energy blast soaring into the sky, and then stepped out from among the rocks on the hill.
"That bastard Kakarot!" Vegeta thought bitterly.
Why is he so powerful?
Goku floated into the air and stood opposite Frieza.
"Not bad, you're much stronger than I imagined, you lowly warrior." Frieza snorted, looking at Goku with a smile. "It's a pity Vegeta died so young. I wonder how he would feel if he knew that a lowly warrior was stronger than him, a genius warrior."
Vegeta immediately felt his soul being pierced.
I'm already dead, and that bastard Frieza is still there mocking me.
That's outrageous.
"Although you are stronger Vegeta, you are still just a little ant that I let go more than 20 years ago!" Frieza smiled contemptuously.
"Even a small ant can defeat an elephant through hard work and training," Goku replied.
"Puff..."
Frieza burst out laughing.
"Tell me, how can a little ant defeat an elephant through training?" Frieza laughed loudly, then glared at the spot where Goku was.
Instantly, an invisible energy rapidly enveloped Goku.
Goku reacted extremely quickly, immediately soaring into the sky and appearing directly above Frieza.
"Here you go!" Goku glared at Frieza.
An invisible energy enveloped Frieza.
Frieza's body fell downwards.
Just as he approached the lake's surface, Frieza's figure flickered and vanished from the spot.
In just a moment, Frieza appeared behind Goku.
"Bang!"
Frieza kicked out with a powerful kick, sending Goku flying off the ground.
"Boom!"
Goku fell into the lake below, where the water rippled and waves splashed one after another.
Goku sank to the bottom of the water.
"Hurry up and get on, I know you'll be alright," Frieza shouted.
Goku, however, was silently deep in thought at the bottom of the water.
Wow, this guy is so fast!
What should I do to deal with him?
He doesn't seem to rely on sensory abilities to locate others like we do; he can only see with his eyes.
I'll try to exploit this weakness of his.
"Ki Blast!"
Goku condensed two Ki Blast.
Go!
As soon as Goku raised his hand, a Ki Blast shot up from the depths of the lake.
"Come on up! Why aren't you up yet!" Frieza raised his hand, ready to attack Goku.
As soon as Goku shows his face, Frieza will smash him down without hesitation.
"But that last blow was enough to hurt him," Frieza muttered to himself.
As they were talking, a Ki Blast surged up from the lake and roared toward Frieza's location.
"Prepare to die!" Frieza clenched his fist, ready to deliver a punch.
However, Frieza soon realized that something was amiss.
It doesn't seem to be him!
Just then, another Ki Blast surged up from the lake.
"Over here!" Frieza laughed loudly, about to launch an attack on the incoming Ki Blast.
However, Frieza soon realized that something was wrong.
It's him!
"I'm here!" Goku descended from the sky, kicking Frieza hard from mid-air.
"Boom!"
Frieza crashed into a small island below like a cannonball, shattering the island into several pieces.
Frieza climbed out of the rubble and shook his head.
"It's a pity... he wasn't injured..." Goku smiled bitterly.
"I never expected that a mere lowly warrior could get me, Frieza, covered in dust like this," Frieza sneered. "Fighting you is quite an experience; this is the first time I've ever felt so excited! How should I deal with you?"
"This is terrible... I thought it might be of Qidian use," Goku said with a laugh.
"I'll show you this!" Frieza said, waving at a nearby rock.
Instantly, these stones floated up to Frieza's side.
Goku was stunned for a moment.
"Hey!"
Frieza controlled the rock and hurled it at Goku.
Goku quickly dodged.
"Damn it! If I still had that special energy, I would have that ability too!" Goku dodged while punching and kicking the rocks, his mouth never stopping.
When Goku had cleared away all the stones, he suddenly sensed that something was amiss.
Suddenly, Frieza appeared behind Goku.
"Got you!" Frieza conjured an energy blast in his hand, instantly enveloping Goku within it.
"Oh no! I can't move!" Goku's face changed color.
"Die!" Frieza sneered, unleashing an energy blast that hurtled towards the ground below.
"Boom!"
The energy blast struck a small island below.
A huge mushroom cloud rose from the small island.
The shockwave from the mushroom cloud spread wildly in all directions.
"Get down! Kale!" Gohan pressed Kale's head down and shoved her to the ground.
Kale: "..."
I almost ate dirt.
Krillin was also lying on the ground.
Only Piccolo managed to shield his head with his arms, managing to block the shockwave.
The next moment, several people got up from the ground and looked into the distance.
"What a terrifying guy!" Krillin gasped.
"Frieza is toying with Goku," Piccolo said in a deep voice. "He could easily destroy this planet."
