Out of Control

Bels lived up to his reputation for efficiency; he arranged an opponent for Turles in no time.

Three days later, Turles stood once again on the arena stage.

The energy barrier rose slowly, muffling the roars and cheers of the spectators as Turles and his opponent engaged in battle.

This time, Turles's opponent was a fighter with a power level exceeding 60,000. It seemed his previous fight against Dodoria had forced the arena to re-evaluate his strength.

There was no wasted breath; the two went straight into combat.

In the air, two figures flashed repeatedly, the thunderous booms of their clash echoing constantly, causing the very air to tremble.

"Why is it so intense right from the start this time?"

"Don't you know? That Saiyan already defeated Dodoria. How could he bother with probing attacks? Of course he's going all out from the start!"

"Is that so? Even Lord Dodoria was defeated? Does that mean my bet is in danger?"

"What's wrong, brother? Did you bet on Lord Kare?"

"Yeah! I thought this Saiyan was just a newcomer!"

"You... you'd better prepare yourself!"

"..."

The discussions in the stands naturally could not reach Turles. Although he was immersed in the fight, a portion of his focus was constantly monitoring the changes within his body.

Sure enough, as the battle progressed, he felt that familiar sensation of his blood boiling, and his emotions began to surge.

It seemed Paragus was right. He was indeed like Bardock; his cells only began to show true vitality after reaching the maturity of eighteen. In other words, his development had simply been delayed.

However, this was a good thing for Turles.

Bardock had been able to break through the physical limits of a Saiyan through sheer, reckless tenacity alone. Now that he had a better training method, as long as nothing went wrong, he would definitely make even greater breakthroughs over the next three years. Perhaps he could even reach the threshold for becoming a Super Saiyan by the end of those three years.

Thinking of this, Turles's spirit grew even more excited, and he couldn't help but divert a sliver of his consciousness to probe inside his body.

As a transmigrator, a bit of risk-taking was inevitable. Even if one acted cautiously most of the time, there would always be a moment when they couldn't hold back.

And at that moment, Turles's consciousness finally located the source of his body's excitement. It was...

The tail! Turles exclaimed inwardly.

"Bang!" Distracted, Turles left an opening that his opponent seized immediately. A strike landed on his back, sending him crashing from the air directly into the ground.

"Boom!"

Turles grinned, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with a bitter smile. "I got careless!"

Looking up at the energy sphere coalescing in mid-air, Turles truly felt like he'd been screwed. Just a few days ago, he was the one gifting Dodoria an energy blast; he never expected that today, it would be his turn to taste the sensation of being blown up.

But now was not the time for reflection. Since he had already identified the cause, it was time for this game to end.

"Swish!"

Turles planted his feet in a horse stance, clenching his fists tightly at his waist. His aura began to fluctuate, and a white flame of energy started to swirl around him.

"Aaaaaah!"

Turles let out a continuous roar. His muscles tensed, the surrounding rubble began to levitate, and cracks appeared on the ground. Under the influence of his immense biological energy, sparks of electricity seemed to flash through the air.

"Hah!"

With a thunderous shout, Turles pushed his aura to its peak. If anyone were to use a scouter on him at this moment, they would discover that his combat power was no longer the 50,000 he had displayed earlier, but had reached a terrifying 90,000!

A horrifying pressure radiated from Turles. Even with the protection of the energy barrier, the spectators felt as if a giant boulder were pressing down on their chests, making it nearly impossible to breathe.

With a cold, sharp gaze fixed on the descending energy sphere, Turles's expression remained unchanged. Relying solely on his aura, he halted the descent of the blast. He extended his palm and pushed against the air toward the energy sphere, sending it hurtling back along its original path.

"What? How is this possible?" Turles's opponent's face changed drastically, crying out in disbelief.

"Boom!"

A blinding white light erupted as the energy sphere exploded in the sky. Three days later, a mushroom cloud lit up the arena once again.

"Awesome! Too strong!"

"Lord Turles won again! It was worth betting my entire fortune on him!"

"Lord Turles, can I have your babies?"

"You bitch, Lord Turles is mine!"

"..."

Having wrapped up the fight in a hurry, Turles shot straight into the sky, leaving the arena behind with a long, white trail of exhaust.

Spaceship Training Room.

Turles sat cross-legged on the floor, his brow furrowed in confusion.

Ever since returning from the arena, Turles had immediately dived into investigating his discovery. However, unlike when he was on the ring, his cells were currently in an active state but failed to bring him that same sense of exhilaration. Even though he kept observing his tail and probing his body with his mental energy, he could no longer find that clear source.

Stroking his furry tail, Turles fell into deep thought.

For a Saiyan, the tail is an incredibly important part of the body. During a full moon, the tail receives the Blutz Waves reflected by the moon and becomes active. Once the eyes meet the moonlight, it triggers a mutation in the body's cells, initiating the Great Ape Transformation, which increases combat power tenfold. Only by severing the tail or waiting for the full moon to pass can one return to their original state.

However, Turles knew one more piece of information: the tail might be the key to a Saiyan transforming into a Super Saiyan 4.

In GT, when Son Goku transformed into a Super Saiyan while in his Great Ape state, he turned directly into a Golden Great Ape. Finally, stimulated by Pan's tears, he regained his sanity and transformed directly into a Super Saiyan 4.

Turles did not know if it was possible to transform into a Super Saiyan 4 in this universe, but since he had discovered that the root of his body's strange changes was his tail, he felt that if he wanted to control the stimulation of those manic emotions, he still had to start with the tail.

Turles channeled a strand of his spirit within his body and began to continuously stimulate the base of his tail. The tail, which had originally been dormant, began to bristle with fur under the stimulation of Turles's spirit, looking exactly like the state he remembered when transforming into a Great Ape.

"Oh no!" Just as this thought flashed through Turles's mind, an incomparably violent desire for destruction surged into his brain, nearly obliterating his consciousness entirely.

"Roar!"

A roar that sounded nothing like a human voice erupted from Turles's mouth. The hair on his face, hands, and even his entire body began to grow rapidly, his muzzle gradually elongated, and his physique began to grow to a massive size.

Clinging to his final shred of consciousness, Turles stumbled out of the spaceship. Before he could get any further away, the clarity in his eyes vanished completely, replaced by a violent desire for destruction.

"Roar!"

With another roar, Turles's body surged in size, quickly growing to a height of several dozen meters. His entire body was covered in deep brown fur, his face had completely transformed into that of an ape, and pure bloodlust flashed intermittently in his red pupils.

Everyone who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion looked on in astonishment at the suddenly appearing Great Ape. Paragus couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Why did Turles suddenly undergo a Great Ape Transformation!"

Raditz, fighting through the fear in his body, said in a panic, "I don't know! There's no full moon, yet he transformed just like that!"

Paragus looked at Turles, who had already begun to wreak havoc. Knowing Turles's combat power, he was well aware of how terrifying he was now that he had undergone the Great Ape Transformation. After considering it for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Broly, go and cut off Turles's tail now. Use that Destructo Disc technique Turles taught you!"

In truth, Paragus's first thought after seeing Turles lose control was to flee—to run as far away as possible. He knew Turles's strength all too well; after the Great Ape Transformation, Turles had at least 800,000 in combat power. This was a level of power he had never imagined. Even though he knew his son had over 500,000 in combat power, and even though he knew Frieza's current strength was more than 530,000, when he truly faced the Great Ape Turles, the overwhelming pressure made his very soul tremble!

However, after thinking it over, Paragus abandoned the plan to take Broly and flee alone. For one thing, his relationship with Turles was quite good; in this era, besides Broly, Turles was the only one he could consider a friend.

Secondly, there was that sliver of ambition in his heart. Paragus had never given up on the idea of ascending to the throne of the Saiyan King, and without Turles's help, relying only on himself and Broly, the hope would be very slim.

Therefore, Paragus ultimately had Broly make a move, because among everyone present, only Broly could survive a couple of blows from a mindless Turles.

While Paragus was still lost in his own little schemes, Broly had already charged directly toward Turles, who was continuously spitting out energy beams.

As his only friend, seeing Turles lose his mind made Broly feel exceptionally distressed. However, he kept Turles's advice firmly in mind and did not use his full strength, because Turles had once told him that if he ever lost control, everyone would die, including his father and friends.

Broly tried his best to suppress his energy, slowly approaching Turles's tail. He wasn't sure if a mindless Turles still had the ability to sense energy, so he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.

Closer, very close!

Broly arrived at a position just 10 meters away from Turles. He raised his right hand and began to slowly condense energy according to the method Turles had taught him. Soon, a disc-like vortex appeared above his head. The vortex quickly solidified, spinning in his hand like a glowing disc.

"Swish!"

Turles suddenly turned his head, his blood-red eyes staring straight at Broly's position.

"I've been spotted!"

Broly's heart skipped a beat. Ignoring everything else, he threw the disc in his hand, aiming it straight at Turles's tail!
