Babidi shouted exaggeratedly,
"There's still one left, Dabura! Make sure to leave him alive!"
Dabura nodded solemnly; he could sense that Vegeta after his transformation was completely different from before.
Seeing that Vegeta had already jumped out, Jiren didn't make a move, thinking that he could use these people to let Vegeta familiarize himself with his enhanced power.
This was Vegeta's first time facing an enemy in Super Saiyan form, and with the added buff of Super Saiyan mode, he was exceptionally excited.
Vegeta pointed a thumbs-up at himself, his expression one of utter arrogance.
"You scum, I'll make you pay for what you just said!"
Dabura remained silent. He flashed in front of Vegeta and raised his leg to strike first.
Vegeta scoffed, grabbed Dabura's calf, and flung him toward Babidi's position.
Babidi, who had little Battle Power, was immediately terrified and started screaming. Fortunately, Dabura stopped in time, otherwise the yellow-skinned rat would have been half-killed.
He shouted at Dabura, who had his back to him.
"Hey! Watch your step! You almost hurt me, do you know that?!"
Dabura was completely under control; even so, he wasn't angry. He even turned around and apologized to Babidi.
Vegeta utterly despised Dabura's behavior, and he scoffed,
"What a good dog. I wonder what that thing has that makes you so loyal."
Dabura glared at him and scolded,
"What do you know? It was Lord Babidi who bestowed upon me even greater power!"
"Oh? You don't seem that strong now. How weak were you before?"
Vegeta's verbal attacks were full of sarcasm, and Dabura finally got angry. With a casual gesture, a long spear appeared in his hand.
His move really surprised Jiren and the others, because strong people at their level rarely use weapons anymore; their fists are their best weapon.
Dabura pointed his spear at Vegeta and thrust it forward in a spiral motion.
Facing Dabura's "Poison Dragon Drill," Vegeta remained calm. He assumed a fighting stance, pushing his hands flat in front of his chest, choosing to meet Dabura's charge head-on.
The two collided, producing a sickening scraping sound as Vegeta's worn-out white gloves rubbed together.
Goku watched with bated breath, his only regret being that he hadn't jumped out sooner; Vegeta had gotten his hands on such a great fighter jet.
In fact, Dabura is quite strong. For Goku and Vegeta, who haven't yet broken through to Super Dial 2, he is definitely a formidable opponent.
Of course, if the two of them were willing to join forces, taking down Dabura would be a piece of cake.
However, that's just their nature. If they face an enemy far stronger than themselves, they will join forces. But if they face someone who is neither strong nor weak, and they are evenly matched, they will never join forces. One-on-one battles are the romance of Saiyan.
Unable to break through, Dabura suddenly stopped his attack and flew into the sky.
Vegeta wasn't about to let him go so easily. He unleashed his power again, shooting into the sky like a rocket.
The two shifted from ground combat to aerial combat, with the booming sounds of exploding energy blasts echoing across the sky. Goku placed a hand on his forehead and said,
"This is really intense, Jiren. Do you think Vegeta can win?"
Jiren looked up and said in a deep voice,
"Vegeta's fighting talent is quite good; if he continues fighting like this, his chances of winning are not small, however..."
Jiren paused for a moment, Goku quickly pressed for an answer.
"But what?"
"Vegeta is too arrogant. He'll suffer a great loss sooner or later because of this, and maybe it's right now."
Above the sky
Vegeta was using the classic "Prince's Strategy" against Dabura, which involved frantically throwing energy blasts at him.
The barrage of fire was quite intimidating in terms of sheer force, and Dabura was forced to flee in panic. It wasn't until he was hit in the buttocks that he realized the attack wasn't as lethal as he'd initially thought.
Vegeta was even more excited when he saw that he had hit the target. His arm swung so fast that it left afterimages, and a barrage of energy blasts instantly engulfed the bewildered Dabura.
A thick cloud of smoke appeared, and Dabura's figure disappeared into it.
Vegeta fired a few more shots before stopping, seemingly unsatisfied. He waited for the smoke to dissipate, showing no intention of unleashing a powerful attack.
When the smoke cleared, Dabura was revealed, his arms crossed, covering his face.
Aside from being a little dirty, unsurprisingly, Dabura was perfectly fine.
But Vegeta seemed to have gained a great advantage; he raised his chin and revealed an arrogant smile.
Dabura truly couldn't understand how Vegeta came up with that expression, but he had already sensed one thing: Vegeta's arrogance and recklessness.
Such enemies are often the easiest to deal with. Dabura, as the leader of the demon world, is synonymous with treachery and cunning. Today, he will let Vegeta taste the wickedness of society.
Actually, you can't really blame Vegeta. His strength has increased so much that he's become like a nouveau riche, and he can't feel right unless he shows off.
Moreover, even when he entered Super Saiyan mode, he was still treated like a football by Jiren, which made him feel extremely frustrated. Now that he has finally found an outlet for his anger, he naturally wants to be arrogant.
Dabura's lips curled into a sinister smile. He staggered, feigning injury, which only fueled Vegeta's enthusiasm. He scoffed,
"He really was trash. Now he knows how powerful Saiyan are, right?"
Dabura remained silent, raised his head, and flew upwards again. Vegeta shouted.
"Trying to run away!?"
Vegeta followed closely behind, and the two continued their upward surge. Just as they were about to break through the atmosphere, Dabura's speed gradually slowed down.
As Vegeta watched the distance close, he smiled contemptuously and said sarcastically,
"Why aren't you running anymore? If you're so capable, then fly off Earth!"
Dabura remained silent, and Vegeta didn't see the sinister smile on his face.
By the time he got close, it was too late. Dabura lowered his head and spat out a mouthful of saliva. Vegeta was rushing forward and had no time to stop.
Saliva landed on Vegeta's neck, and a look of disgust appeared on his face as he said,
"Disgusting! Looks like you've really run out of options, resorting to such despicable tactics!"
Dabura was completely immune to Vegeta's verbal sparring; he wore a mocking expression, ready to enjoy Vegeta's next reaction.
