Mastering a Special Transformation

However, at this life-or-death moment, Kazer showed no fear. Instead, he looked at Broly with a strange expression and slowly said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're Broly!"

His words struck like a bolt of thunder. Zhou Zilong stopped attacking, a flicker of confusion passing through his Great Ape Transformation's crimson eyes. "Oh? How do you know my Saiyan name?"

In the memories of the timeline Xiao Ling, his super system, had corrected for him, Zhou Zilong had gained some memories that he hadn't originally possessed. But he knew for certain that those memories didn't include Kazer, the giant lizard from the Scale-Head Clan.

"That's because I helped the Saiyans for a time back then, so I know quite a bit about what happened..." Kazer's voice carried a hint of weariness. He continued recounting the history buried by time, hoping to find a way to save his own life.

"When you were born, your battle power was already a thousand. You were hailed as an exceptionally gifted warrior, so you were sent on missions as soon as you were old enough to move. As you grew, your Saiyan traits came into play. By the age of five, your battle power had reached twelve thousand. But King Vegeta feared that if you continued to grow, you'd threaten his position. So he secretly exiled you under the pretense of sending you on a mission to a faraway place. Afraid you'd return for revenge, King Vegeta tampered with your spaceship. It should have exploded in space, but somehow you survived. How about we join forces and conquer the universe?"

"Are you done? Trying to play on my feelings won't work. If you're finished, I'll send you on your way!" Broly's voice was cold and resolute. Without changing his expression, he grabbed Kazer and crushed him in his hand, then blasted him to dust with a mouth beam.

Zhou Zilong then burst through the ship and wiped out the rest of the Scale-Head Clan. At last, the battle was over.

"I've already taken out the other side's crystal. Time to turn back to normal!" Zhou Zilong muttered, preparing to end his Great Ape Transformation.

"Zilong, I suggest you wait a little. Try combining your Great Ape Transformation with your normal form, using what you learned through the law of fusion. You might get an unexpected result!" Just then, Xiao Ling—the cheat system that always gave Zhou Zilong guidance at crucial moments—broke the silence in her sweet, warm voice.

"Okay, I'll give it a try!" Zhou Zilong replied. He found a secluded spot, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes to focus. In the depths of his consciousness, a vast, boundless space slowly unfolded. It was the stage where he communed with power.

Soon, two completely different figures appeared in his mind: one was Zhou Zilong in his normal form, dressed in black with a stern expression; the other was a slightly golden Great Ape, much like his transformed self.

Zhou Zilong chuckled to himself and focused, trying to guide the two forces with his mind. He imagined them as two rushing rivers, slowly converging under the guidance of some mysterious power to form an even mightier torrent. But his first attempt didn't go smoothly. The two forces repelled each other like opposing magnetic poles, bouncing apart again and again.

Unwilling to give up, he tried fusing them once more. But just like before, they separated again.

What the cross-legged Zhou Zilong didn't notice was that a subtle change had quietly occurred. At the instant of the second fusion attempt, his Great Ape face had briefly flickered back to his original, handsome features.

"Ah, this fusion thing is such a headache!" Zhou Zilong rubbed his temples after several more failed attempts.

After trying a few more times, he murmured, "I still need to guide the two forces together to make them fuse!"

So, he decided to try the most unbelievable method—role-playing. He completely immersed himself in both that mysterious consciousness and the Great Ape's violent inner world. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath, as if passing through the barrier of time and space into a strange realm built by his own mind.

In this realm, Zhou Zilong first met the figure from his consciousness: an ordinary-looking boy with an extraordinary will. He smiled gently and enveloped the boy in a warmth like a spring breeze, as if whispering, "Hey, friend, let's dance together!"

Then he turned to face the roaring Great Ape. His eyes glinted mischievously as he infused it with the same gentle energy, as if saying, "Big guy, don't be so fierce. Come on, let's play together!"

When he tried fusing them again, a miracle happened. Guided by Zhou Zilong, the two forces that had repelled each other began to intertwine. Like the brightest stars in the night sky, they reflected one another's light. The Great Ape's ferocity was gradually tempered by the boy's resilience, while the boy's strength grew more substantial with the Great Ape's primal energy.

Meanwhile, Zhou Zilong's Great Ape form, as he sat cross-legged, began to shrink. His transformed face also started returning to its original appearance.

But just as he thought he'd succeeded, the force seemed to be playing games with him. His face shifted toward the Great Ape form again. Unfazed, Zhou Zilong once more took the role of guide, using his unique rhythm to lead the two forces through one "fusion dance" after another.

Back and forth, two hours passed like an endless hip-hop party. Zhou Zilong's body kept shifting between man and ape, each change accompanied by his hearty laughter and self-mocking remarks. "Haha, looks like I still need to practice this Fusion Dance!"

At last, after one perfect fusion, Zhou Zilong stood steady, his handsome face restored and his eyes shining with confidence and wisdom.

More importantly, the mysterious power within him had completely merged, forming a unique little circle in his dantian. It took the shape of the boy, with the Great Ape enclosed inside him.

When Zhou Zilong tried drawing on this energy, the little circle glowed with pale golden flames, unleashing power even greater than his original Great Ape Transformation.

Zhou Zilong immediately opened his status panel to check his attributes.

Zhou Zilong:

[Race] Saiyan (Legendary Super Saiyan)

[Height] 1.89 meters (2.07 meters in unnamed transformation form)

[Weight] 87 kg (101 kg in unnamed transformation form)

[Battle Power] 90 million (normal form: maximum 3 million; includes transformation state: unnamed transformation form ×30)

"Those Saiyans really are a race of cheaters. Master a few special powers, and their strength shoots way up."

Zhou Zilong joked after seeing his strength rise by leaps and bounds.

Only afterward did Zhou Zilong realize that he was indeed quite a bit taller in this state, even though his appearance was otherwise much the same as before.

If there had been a mirror nearby, Zhou Zilong would have noticed a small golden ring around the outside of his black irises.

"Since this came from combining the Saiyan Great Ape Transformation with another form, I'll call this transformation Great Ape Power. It's inspired by the Dragon Ball anime movie Dragon Ball Super: Broly!"
