Son Goku and Nappa stood together, their solemn gazes fixed on Raditz directly in front of them.

Raditz's test of their abilities is of great significance to them.

"Come on! Remember to attack with the determination to kill me, otherwise you won't even be able to get close to me." Raditz casually beckoned to the two with his index finger, signaling that they could attack.

"Alright, big brother, you'd better be careful!" Son Goku smiled faintly, a snow-white aura flashed around him, and his Base Form combat power was fully unleashed. He quickly rushed straight towards Raditz.

A combat power level of 250,000 is actually quite powerful.

The dense attacks rained down like raindrops, and the continuous barrage of punches contained destructive power enough to shatter the earth.

Even a strong fighter with Battle Power exceeding 200,000 points would only be able to passively defend against Son Goku's powerful attacks.

Even a powerhouse with Battle Power strength of 300,000 points would not be able to handle it easily.

Of course, he was facing Raditz, which is a different story.

Raditz is undoubtedly the strongest Saiyan, second only to Talot.

In Raditz's eyes, Son Goku's movements seemed to be slowed down a thousand times. He didn't even need to deliberately dodge; he could easily evade all of Son Goku's attacks simply by relying on his body's instincts.

Although Raditz seemed to be just going through the motions, he was very perceptive in sensing Son Goku's change.

Not only has their Battle Power been improved, but their combat methods have also advanced significantly.

This is the effect of North Kai's training; he himself went through that phase back then.

To put it simply, although my younger brother still has quite a few unnecessary movements when he makes a move, it's much, much better than before.

"It seems you've really been training diligently with North Kai these past few days. You've changed a lot, Kakarot," Raditz said with a slight smile, a hint of pride in his voice.

As expected of his younger brother, although his birth combat strength was only 2, he could make rapid progress in strength in a very short time as long as he had the right person to guide him.

"The battle has only just begun, brother! Now it's time to get serious!" With a spirited shout, Son Goku's body was ablaze with a blood-red aura, and his momentum and Battle Power experienced an explosive increase.

"The Kaio-ken?" Raditz, who had also trained in the Kaio-ken, recognized it at a glance and also keenly noticed how many flaws Son Goku had in his mastery of the Kaio-ken.

His physical strength was sufficient, but his Ki Cultivation was still lacking. Although using the regular Kaio-ken wouldn't cause many drawbacks, side effects would appear once he used a higher power Kaio-ken.

The disordered energy will backfire on you. If you're lucky, you'll only suffer superficial injuries; if you're unlucky, you'll be left with indelible internal injuries.

"Watch out, brother! I won't hold back from now on!" Son Goku shouted with high spirits.

The next second, an even more ferocious attack swept over Raditz's body like a blood-red storm.

"Bring it on." Raditz chuckled lightly, not taking Son Goku's attack seriously at all, maintaining a playful attitude.

He didn't take the initiative to attack, but instead used his agile movements to manipulate Son Goku at will.

After all, Raditz's Base Form combat strength is 60 million points.

While dodging Son Goku's attacks, Raditz also thoughtfully pointed out Son Goku's shortcomings.

Meanwhile, Nappa, who was not far away, watched the battle between Son Goku and Raditz.

He originally planned to watch from the sidelines and figure out Raditz's attack patterns through the battle between Son Goku and Raditz. But to his surprise, Raditz didn't even take the initiative to attack. With his agility, he toyed with Son Goku.

The difference in strength was not even in the same league; his observations were meaningless in the face of an absolute powerhouse.

"There's no point in continuing like this. Even if it's two against one, it won't put any pressure on Raditz!" Nappa unleashed his aura and charged straight at Raditz.

"Hmm?!" Sensing the sudden approach of the aura beside him, Raditz casually raised his right arm and held up one index finger.

A muffled thud!

Nappa's powerful strike was easily blocked by Raditz with a single finger, and all the impact was neutralized.

It wasn't surprising that Nappa's attack failed, but the fact that Raditz neutralized it with a single finger caused Nappa's expression to change slightly.

"So you're planning to come along too? Nappa. I already said it's fine if the two of you attack together," Raditz chuckled.

"So I made my move!" Nappa quickly pulled back his fist and launched a fierce attack on Raditz with all his might.

The dense onslaught rained down on Raditz, the destructive power contained in his iron fists even surpassing that of Son Goku's attacks.

Nappa and Son Goku joined forces to launch a fierce attack on Raditz. Although it was their first time fighting together, their offensive was exceptionally powerful.

However, for Raditz, this level of attack was child's play; he could still toy with the two men at will.

'Bang! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!' The muffled sounds of limbs colliding echoed through the sky, causing the entire Mount Paozu, centered on them, to tremble violently, attracting the attention of everyone else on Mount Paozu.'

The battlefield for the three also shifted, and they found themselves high in the sky.

After several rounds of fighting, Raditz figured out the patterns of Son Goku and Nappa's attacks. He found that defending all the time was rather boring, so he took the initiative to attack and put some pressure on them.

'Bang! Thud!' Raditz raised his hand and blocked the heavy punches from Son Goku and Nappa respectively. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a wicked smile appeared.

The attack was neutralized once again. Son Goku and Nappa unleashed all their power, trying to pull their fists back, but found that no matter how hard they tried, they could not pull their fists back.

Raditz's overwhelming power locked their iron fists in place.

A strong sense of crisis swept over them, and Son Goku and Nappa had a premonition that something terrible was about to happen.

"Have you had enough of fighting? Now it's my turn!" Raditz smiled slightly, and the next second, he suddenly exerted force with both hands, and unparalleled power swept over Son Goku and Nappa, directly throwing the two of them away.

The two people, who were flying backwards, lost their balance and fell towards the ground. Fortunately, they managed to regain control of their bodies at the critical moment and landed safely.

But the moment the two landed smoothly, Raditz had already silently appeared in front of them, a wicked smile on his face.

"Ten times!! Kaio-ken!" Son Goku, who was the first to react, increased the multiplier of Kaio-ken to ten times, and his battle power surged to 2.5 million points.

With all his might, he swung his fist straight at Raditz's face.

This seemingly destructive blow was so insignificant in Raditz's eyes. He simply raised his hand to block the fierce iron fist and perfectly neutralized its force.

After one attack failed, Son Goku launched several more attacks on Raditz.

With the power of the Kaio-ken x10), Son Goku's speed and strength experienced a qualitative leap.

But against Raditz, whose Base Battle Power exceeds 60 million points, it still appears so fragile.

After only a dozen seconds of fighting, Son Goku exposed his fatal weakness. Because his Ki Cultivation was not yet perfect, the backlash from the Kaio-ken x10 caused his ki to become disordered, and his attack rhythm was disrupted.

"Kakarot, go back and Ki Cultivation. If you can't even use the Kaio-ken x10 perfectly, how are you going to fight against an opponent of my level?" As soon as he finished speaking, Raditz unleashed a powerful punch that struck Son Goku squarely in the abdomen.

The powerful punch pierced through Son Goku's abdomen, and in the blink of an eye, it sent Son Goku flying back more than a hundred meters away.

The excruciating pain in his abdomen caused Son Goku to break out in a cold sweat, and he could no longer stand up, his hands bracing against the ground.

Raditz's control over his power was perfect. This punch seemed to have seriously injured Son Goku, but in reality, it only temporarily rendered Son Goku unable to fight.

After temporarily restraining Son Goku, Raditz turned his attention to Nappa, who was standing to the side.

After witnessing Raditz's terrifying strength, Nappa's expression changed repeatedly, but it was quickly replaced by intense excitement and high fighting spirit.

"Come on, Nappa!" After sensing Nappa's fighting spirit, Raditz beckoned to Nappa.

Upon hearing this, a blood-red glint flashed in Nappa's eyes, and the next second, a vast blood-red aura expanded from Nappa as the center.

His already exaggeratedly strong physique now emitted a thunderous roar, making him appear even more imposing and terrifying.

A continuous stream of energy erupted from its body, and the leaked energy caused violent tremors within a radius of a hundred miles.

Nappa's aura was incredibly powerful, more than twice as strong as Son Goku's, and similarly, the aura he leaked was several times stronger than Son Goku's.

"It seems your problem is much more serious than Kakarot's, but I really didn't Nappa you to have learned Kaio-ken," Raditz commented, arms crossed.

When he first used the Kaio-ken, he also experienced a problem with his aura leaking, but these problems were quickly resolved.

These leaked auras will greatly affect the power and sustainability of the Kaio-ken.

"Enough talk, let's fight, Raditz!!" Nappa shouted with high spirits, and at the same time, his Kaio-ken x10 was stabilized.

With the boost from the Kaio-ken x10, Nappa's Battle Power stabilized at 5.2 million points!

Blood energy enveloped his entire body, Nappa charged out like a demon, wielding his iron fist, which contained extreme destructive power, to attack Raditz's face.

A deafening 'bang!' resounded.

As expected, Raditz easily blocked Nappa's iron fist, which he swung with all his might.

While Nappa is powerful now, Raditz is far too strong. Even with Battle Power of 5.2 million, he is still less than one-tenth of Raditz's strength.

When one attack failed, Nappa suddenly sprang into action again, rapidly swinging his fists and attacking Raditz with all his might.

At this moment, Nappa's fighting instincts exploded to the extreme, Central City every move and stance containing an extremely strong killing intent.

Even a strong opponent of the same level would be forced to defend against Nappa's all-out attack. Unfortunately, Raditz is no longer on the same level as him.

In their previous encounters, Raditz had figured out all of Nappa's attack methods; he had seen through all of Nappa's offensive moves.

No matter how Nappa attacked, he couldn't touch Raditz in the slightest.

A series of whooshing sounds rang out.

All of Nappa's attacks failed, which made Nappa increasingly anxious.

Desperate to hit Raditz, he launched an all-out attack, abandoning his defense.

In Raditz's eyes, Nappa had countless weaknesses, and if he wanted, he could finish Nappa off in an instant and end the battle.

But Raditz did not do that.

"You haven't changed at all. You get impatient whenever you fall behind. I believe King Kai has mentioned this to you, but you haven't overcome it. To win a battle, you can't just rely on your Battle Power." Raditz saw Nappa's shortcomings and explained carefully.

Upon hearing this, Nappa belatedly realized his own shortcomings.

Before he could ask any more questions, Raditz suddenly disappeared from his spot and reappeared behind him.

"Oh no!" Nappa sensed something was wrong. A bead of cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He instinctively turned and threw a punch, but he was still a step too slow.

Raditz delivered a powerful kick to Nappa's lower back, the force of which swept over Nappa's entire body, flipping Nappa over and sending him soaring a thousand meters into the air.

This force was impossible to counteract, Nappa was unable to control his body for the time being.

Raditz wasn't going to end the attack there; he had to teach Nappa a lesson he wouldn't forget.

In the blink of an eye, Raditz sprinted to the front of Nappa, unleashed a powerful kick, and struck Nappa squarely in the chest.

Nappa, struck again, fell from the sky like a meteorite, crashing into the ground and creating a huge crater with a diameter of twenty or thirty meters.

Standing in the center of the giant pit, Nappa's aura dissipated, his veins bulged all over his body, and he lay on the ground questioning his existence.

"Damn it...!!!" Nappa cried out in frustration.

Naba's own shortcomings, coupled with Raditz's strong suppression, made Nappa very dissatisfied with his own weakness.

At this moment, Raditz slowly descended from the sky, landing on the edge of the deep pit, looking down at Nappa, who had temporarily lost his fighting ability.

His control over his power was very subtle; he only temporarily rendered Nappa unable to fight, and he recovered completely after a while.

"You can rest here for a while, Nappa." With that, Raditz turned around and fixed his gaze on Son Goku, who was dozens of meters away.

By this time, Son Goku had recovered, and his eyes, filled with fighting spirit, were fixed on Raditz.

"Big brother is as powerful as ever. The Kaio-ken x10 is no match for him. It seems I still have to transform into Super Saiyan!" As soon as he finished speaking, Son Goku activated the S-Cells in his body, and golden energy was released from the inside out, turning into raging flames that burned around Son Goku.

In just a few seconds, Son Goku completed his Super Saiyan 1 transformation.
