Finally Transformed! Two Super Saiyans!

"Thud!"

Krillin collapsed to the ground, powerless.

"Krillin! Krillin!"

Goku cried out in anguish, trying to wake Krillin, but nothing worked.

"Heh heh heh! That weak, bald little runt actually dared to block my beam? What a fool."

Cooler sneered.

"Don't worry. I'll send you to join that little bald runt soon enough."

Goku's eyes were wet with tears as he glared at Cooler, grief and fury in his gaze, as if he wanted to devour him whole.

"You killed Krillin!"

A miracle happened.

Goku, who had been lying helplessly on the ground just moments earlier, staggered to his feet.

His heart was now ablaze with fury!

As he stared at Krillin's fallen body, countless memories of their time together flashed through his mind...

The first time they met, apprenticing under Master Roshi, training together, competing in the World Martial Arts Tournament, and facing all kinds of powerful enemies together...

He had long since come to think of Krillin as his brother. And now Krillin had died right before his eyes while protecting him!

Helplessness, guilt, sorrow, and grief surged through Goku.

In the end, his anger shattered his reason.

"Ah!----------"

His memories of Krillin shattered, replaced by endless darkness.

Goku exploded with rage!

"Whoosh!"

Golden flames flared around him.

"Unforgivable!!!"

Suddenly, Goku's hair stood on end and turned golden, then reverted to black.

"Fwoosh!"

His energy continued to soar, golden flames flickering around him.

Suddenly, he snapped his head up. His pupils had vanished, leaving his eyes white.

"Whoosh!----"

A gust of wind swept past, and golden flames burst forth!

"Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!----"

Goku's hair stood straight up and turned golden. His eyes turned green, and his entire body was enveloped in golden energy!

Cooler's figure was reflected in Goku's green eyes.

"So strong!"

"Dad finally became a Super Saiyan!"

Gohan was beside himself with excitement. His father had finally become a Super Saiyan!

"As I thought, Goku's reached that level too."

Piccolo couldn't help but marvel.

"So this is a Super Saiyan?"

Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu had also seen Goku's transformation, and they were stunned.

"Damn it! Kakarot became a Super Saiyan before me!"

Vegeta slammed the ground in frustration.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside Krillin.

"Hm?!"

Goku's cold gaze snapped toward him.

He wouldn't allow anyone to desecrate his brother's body.

After transforming, Goku had become utterly cold and ruthless.

"Thank goodness, he's still got a faint heartbeat."

Li Feng let out a long breath. He felt Krillin's heart beating faintly, quickly took out a Senzu Bean, crushed it, and fed it to him.

"Hm? Krillin isn't dead?"

Goku's expression softened. He turned to Li Feng and asked in surprise.

"Who told you Krillin was dead?"

Li Feng replied, exasperated.

Who would've thought that, in this world too, Krillin's "death" would trigger Goku's transformation? It really was fate.

Fortunately, Li Feng had been prepared. While Gohan was feeding Krillin a Senzu Bean just moments ago, he had quietly sent a wisp of his own energy into Krillin's heart meridian.

He had learned this technique on Planet Yardrat. It was an extremely advanced application of energy.

Used properly, it could even bring someone back from the dead!

He had only tried it on a hunch, but he hadn't expected it to work.

To him, everyone in the Dragon Ball world was real. He couldn't stand by and let a companion die, even if the Dragon Balls could bring him back.

Under the Senzu Bean's effects, Krillin's heartbeat returned to normal. He had come back from the brink of death!

"Thank goodness, Uncle Krillin's okay!"

Gohan cried out excitedly, his earlier sorrow swept away.

"Thank goodness! Li Feng, you're amazing!"

Yamcha shouted happily.

Everyone watching was thrilled that Krillin had "come back to life."

"Thank goodness, Krillin! You're okay!"

Goku was back to normal now. He hurried over to Krillin.

"Huh? I'm still alive?"

After eating the Senzu Bean and regaining his strength, Krillin felt his body in disbelief.

"Li Feng saved you!"

Goku hugged Krillin, tears filling his eyes.

"Ah, thank you, Li Feng. You've saved us again."

Krillin was deeply moved too.

"Hm? What's going on? Those worms were the same earlier. They were practically dead, but then they ate something and came back at full strength? Just what can this Saiyan who killed Frieza do?"

Cooler was baffled.

"Goku, how did it feel to transform into a Super Saiyan just now? Can you still do it?"

Li Feng asked with a smile.

As far as he was concerned, they had already accomplished their goal.

"Well, all I could think about was how angry I was, but somehow my body was filled with incredible strength."

Goku replied.

"Your fight isn't over yet. Keep getting used to this transformation."

With that, he tossed Goku a Senzu Bean, then left the battlefield with Krillin and Gohan.

"Thanks so much for this, Li Feng. I'll never forget what you've done for me. This time, I'm going to beat that bastard once and for all!"

Goku thanked Li Feng, then furrowed his brows in anger and crunched the Senzu Bean.

"Whooosh----"

"Crack! Crack!----"

Goku's severely injured body was completely restored. All the strength he'd lost after transforming returned, and his bones cracked pleasantly throughout his body.

"Cooler, I'm not letting you get away this time!"

"Haah!"

"Whoosh!----"

Boom!

Energy erupted toward the sky as a golden whirlwind spiraled around him, radiating a terrifying aura.

Goku successfully transformed into a Super Saiyan again!

And this time, he transformed at full strength!

The Saiyan trait of growing stronger after recovering from severe injuries had further boosted his power. His second transformation was even stronger than the first!

The earth trembled, the forests howled, and fierce winds whipped through the air.

Golden flames shimmered around him, fierce and imposing like those of a God of War.

"You damn monkey! Super Saiyan or not, don't get cocky!"

Cooler powered up and charged at Goku again.

Meanwhile, on the other battlefield.

"Oh? A Super Saiyan? Interesting."

Feeling that astonishing energy, King Cold was surprised, but he was still supremely confident in his own power.

"What's wrong, Vegeta? Why are you the only piece of trash lying at my feet? Can't you transform into this so-called Super Saiyan?"

King Cold planted his massive foot on Vegeta's back and taunted him.

"Damn it!----"

"I'm the strongest prince!------"

Vegeta shouted in pain and frustration.

Why? Why could they all become Super Saiyans? Why was he, the prince of the most elite Saiyan bloodline, being so pathetically pinned to the ground? Why were Frieza, Cooler, and King Cold all such powerful bastards? Why couldn't he have that kind of strength?

Vegeta began to question himself. His frustration turned into an intense desire for power, then fury at his own weakness. At last, it unlocked the switch that would trigger his transformation.

"Ah!!!!!!!!------"

Vegeta roared in anger!

In an instant, flickering flames appeared around him too.

"Get your filthy foot off me!!!!!----"

Vegeta erupted in fury, and his astonishing power sent King Cold flying.

Then----

"Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!"

Golden energy swirled around Vegeta. His hair was already standing on end, but now it turned from black to golden yellow, while his pupils vanished for an instant before turning emerald green.

Vegeta had also successfully transformed into a Super Saiyan!
