Ji Yun's Strongest Power

Ji Yun held his breath and focused. An air current began to gather around his feet, stirring the dry grass.

"Ah... ha!"

Ji Yun let out a low growl.

A vast aura erupted from him, and the clear sky instantly filled with dark clouds.

As lightning flashed and thunder roared, Ji Yun's hair began to stand on end.

"That aura is incredible!"

Trunks's eyes widened as he stared at Ji Yun in shock.

"Ha!"

Ji Yun let out another thunderous shout, and golden light began to shimmer all around him.

Brilliant light burst from his body, accompanied by a constant crackling sound.

At that point, Ji Yun's black pupils disappeared, leaving only the whites of his eyes. He looked terrifying.

His hair had also turned the distinctive yellow-green of the Legendary Super Saiyan transformation!

"M-Mr. Ji Yun!"

Trunks swallowed hard and spoke in a nervous whisper.

He'd already transformed into a Super Saiyan, both because Ji Yun had frightened him and because he needed to shield himself from the shock waves Ji Yun was unleashing.

Ji Yun looked terrifying now, like a demon king had emerged into the world. No one would dare approach him.

After an unknown length of time,

Ji Yun's pupils returned, and his gaze went back to normal. He looked much more like himself now.

"Whoo!"

"Thank goodness this is a controllable version of the Super Saiyan transformation. I actually lost myself just now and almost got controlled by my own power!"

Ji Yun sighed. The bloodline of the Legendary Super Saiyan really was domineering!

"Mr. Ji Yun, are you all right now?"

Trunks asked cautiously.

Now he understood why Ji Yun had said back then that he was afraid he might lose control of the power and hurt himself if he transformed into a Super Saiyan.

That was freaking terrifying!

The aura radiating from him alone was enough to make people afraid.

"Yeah, it's nothing serious. This power is just a little hard to control."

Ji Yun spoke calmly.

The ki inside him was incredibly unruly. No wonder Broly went completely berserk after transforming into a Super Saiyan in the original story.

He attacked anyone he saw, showing no regard for friend or foe!

"Mr. Ji Yun, how strong are you now, exactly?"

Trunks asked curiously. Seeing that Ji Yun had returned to normal, he relaxed a little.

"My strength..."

Ji Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't answer right away.

He didn't know how strong he was now, either. Without an opponent of comparable strength, it was hard to judge.

"It's not something I can describe with an accurate number for now..."

After thinking it over, Ji Yun decided to share what was on his mind.

In the story, Broly could fight Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta and Goku in his normal state.

After transforming into a Super Saiyan, Goku and Vegeta could only stand up to him by fusing together.

That alone showed how powerful this bloodline was.

Ji Yun didn't dare claim he was just as strong now, because his base power wasn't all that high.

"That's incredible!"

Trunks praised him sincerely.

Feeling the ki radiating from Ji Yun, Trunks felt like a tiny boat adrift in a vast ocean.

Ji Yun was that ocean: boundless, unfathomable, like an abyss.

Trunks couldn't help thinking that if he had been this powerful back then, his world wouldn't have ended up so miserable.

At the same time, he couldn't help resenting how unfair the heavens were. Their worlds were nearly the same, so why was there no mighty warrior like Ji Yun in his own timeline?

"Whether I'm incredible or not can wait. What do you think of how I look right now?"

Ji Yun asked Trunks curiously.

Aside from his explosive power, he still cared quite a bit about his appearance.

Too bad there wasn't a mirror around. Otherwise, he would've taken a good look at himself.

"Before, I could describe Mr. Ji Yun in two words: handsome!"

"After you transformed into a Super Saiyan, I'd describe you in two words: imposing!"

Trunks praised him with a smile.

He wasn't just trying to flatter Ji Yun or win his favor.

That was simply the conclusion he'd reached after observing him closely.

"It's just..."

Trunks paused.

Ji Yun had been pleased by the praise he'd heard so far, but when he heard the words "it's just," his heart gave a little thump.

"It's just what?"

Ji Yun asked nervously.

"Your hair is a little... unique. When I transform, my hair turns golden."

"But yours has a bit of green in it."

"Does everyone's hair turn this color when they reach your level of strength?"

Trunks said with a smile, voicing the question on his mind.

At Trunks's explanation, Ji Yun's expression fell.

He'd actually forgotten that the Legendary Super Saiyan transformation gave him different-colored hair from an ordinary Super Saiyan.

My hair's a little green! I'm starting to panic!

"Ahem. Maybe different people have different constitutions. It probably has nothing to do with strength."

Ji Yun composed himself and casually came up with an explanation.

Still, he couldn't help feeling a little indignant. As someone who'd transmigrated to this world, he'd always felt that having green hair wasn't a good sign!

"Oh, so that's how it is."

Trunks nodded, taking him at his word and not giving it much more thought.

"Mr. Ji Yun, try that move again!"

Trunks asked right after.

He meant the Ten Times Kaio-ken Ji Yun had used earlier.

"All right!"

Ji Yun cast aside his jumble of thoughts and answered firmly.

He wanted to see how powerful he could become with the Ten Times Kaio-ken activated!

"Ten Times Kaio-ken!"

Ji Yun growled.

Then the mountain beneath them collapsed with a roar.

The howling wind swept the dark clouds along, while golden lightning kept striking down from the sky.

The earth split apart, and the sea crashed wildly against the shore.

Before long, the entire planet was trembling, letting out a piercing rumble.

It seemed to fear the power Ji Yun was giving off.

"M-Mr. Ji Yun!"

Trunks was horrified. If this kept up, the Earth might be destroyed!

Just as Trunks was growing more and more alarmed,

the apocalyptic scene came to an end, and the Earth fell quiet once more.

Ji Yun was now wrapped in a fiery red aura.

It covered his yellow-green ki and his entire body.

"So... so powerful!"

Trunks was too stunned to think of another way to describe it. Ji Yun's strength kept surpassing everything he thought he knew.

If he'd been a tiny boat adrift in the ocean just moments ago,

then now he was a speck of dust in the universe—or perhaps not even that!

"Is this all of my power?"

Ji Yun stared at his hands and murmured softly.

Then he casually swung one hand through the air.

In an instant, a violent storm swept across the land, and cracks appeared faintly throughout the space around them.

And all of that had happened because he'd merely given the air a light wave...
