"What's going on?"
Living and dead alike were stunned.
In Hell, every soul that had yet to reincarnate had regained a body.
Even the halos above their heads had vanished.
Some evildoers had even received a boost, becoming stronger than they had been before.
A terrifying aura spread relentlessly.
Soon, it engulfed all of Other World.
In an instant, life and death were inverted, and the dead returned to life.
The entire order of Other World collapsed in a single moment.
Frieza, Bojack, King Cold, and the others could not sense ki, but that did not mean they could not sense danger.
Terrifying energy fluctuations came from the area shrouded in pink mist.
Judging by the direction, they seemed to originate near Enma Palace.
Meanwhile, Vegeta and Son Goku, who could sense ki, both paled at once.
They had sensed an unimaginably evil and powerful aura.
Wave after wave, that aura kept growing stronger.
What on earth had happened?
Neither of them had any idea.
But Saiyans were born warriors, and sensing such powerful ki set Son Goku's and Vegeta's blood ablaze.
"What powerful ki! I'm going to take a look," Son Goku said excitedly.
A sharp gleam flashed in his eyes. His aura erupted, and he shot toward the source of that evil ki.
Vegeta looked grim, but after only a few seconds of hesitation, he followed close behind Son Goku.
On the ground, Frieza stretched his newly acquired body, clenching his fists with a series of cracks. He turned to King Cold beside him. "Ho ho ho, Father, it seems something big has happened in Other World. We must seize this opportunity."
"You're right, Frieza. We've regained our bodies, and I can feel that my power has increased considerably."
"Perhaps we can take advantage of the chaos and find a way back to the world of the living. I don't want to spend another day in Hell. Ho ho ho."
"Be careful. Those people are all formidable."
"Yes, Father. But I will have my revenge on Son Goku."
King Cold was speechless. This boy certainly is persistent, but he can't beat him.
In a dark corner.
Android 17 and Android 18 appeared.
Their eyes were cold as they stared in the direction Son Goku and Vegeta had gone.
"Hey, 17, did something happen?" Android 18 asked. "Son Goku and Vegeta both left."
"Yeah, probably," Android 17 said. "There was a huge explosion over there just now. Look, even the air seems to have changed color."
"Huh, you're right. Should we go take a look?"
"Let's wait. We'll let them start fighting first."
"Huh? What's that in the sky?"
"Rocks? They're all colorful rocks?"
Puzzled, the two sneaks retreated into the shadows.
After swaggering around Earth for over a decade, their crushing defeat had taught them to bide their time.
In the sky.
The four members of Bojack's squad surrounded him.
"What do we do now, my lord?" Zangya asked.
Bojack frowned. "That fellow called Son Goku is much weaker than his son. If we all gang up on him, we might have a chance of winning."
"As for that haughty, pointy-haired fellow, he seems to be his sworn enemy. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Come on, we'll follow them and act when the opportunity arises."
"Yes, my lord," all four replied.
Five figures flared with ki and flew toward the mist-shrouded area.
The sky over Other World was a dazzling riot of colors.
Purple mist, pink gas, and thick black smoke from the explosion.
They mingled together, blanketing all of Other World.
A transparent barrier appeared around Enma Palace, cutting it off from the rest of Other World.
Once the barrier appeared, King Enma inside Enma Palace could no longer properly govern the power of the Underworld.
Then the order of both the living world and the Underworld fell into chaos.
That was why all the souls had regained physical bodies.
Every soul that had yet to reincarnate had regained a body, coming back to life in an unconventional way.
At that very moment, a massive, obese figure sat atop Yemma Palace.
His entire body was milky white, and he stood over thirty meters tall.
His head was round, his body rotund, and several holes in his arms and chest served as vents.
He kept chanting, "Janemba, Janemba," looking like a complete dimwit.
Huge, colorful rocks appeared throughout the sky over Other World.
The rocks were beautiful yet eerie, as though they might explode at any moment.
Son Goku and Vegeta arrived above Enma Palace one after the other.
The milky-white giant seemed to sense their ki. He looked up at them with an innocent smile, then started chanting, "Janemba, Janemba," again.
Son Goku stared at the white giant in astonishment, unable to imagine that such terrifyingly evil ki was coming from him.
"What powerful ki! What kind of monster is this stupid thing?" Vegeta exclaimed in shock.
"I don't know, but his ki is really strong." Son Goku's expression was grave. He stared fixedly at Janemba without so much as turning his head.
"Janemba, Janemba, Janemba!"
The enormous white giant spoke again.
Suddenly, the colorful rocks in the sky came thundering down, pelting Son Goku and Vegeta.
"What kind of move is this?"
As colorful rocks rained down from the sky, Son Goku and Vegeta darted about, dodging at high speed.
But there were far too many rocks. Like a torrential downpour, they swallowed the two of them.
Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!
A series of pounding impacts rang out.
Pinned beneath the rocks, Son Goku and Vegeta were in agony.
These colorful rocks were far from ordinary. They could actually inflict serious damage on them.
The rain of colorful rocks completely buried Son Goku and Vegeta, quickly piling into a multicolored mountain.
Suddenly,
A deafening boom rang out.
Golden light erupted from the mountain of colorful rocks, piercing heaven and earth.
The rocks exploded, flying in every direction.
Son Goku and Vegeta burst out, looking thoroughly battered.
"Hah... hah... hah!"
Son Goku and Vegeta gasped for breath, their faces filled with shock and uncertainty.
Both had suffered injuries of varying severity.
Who would have imagined that nothing more than those colorful rocks had attacked them?
Son Goku was relatively unscathed, with only a few scrapes on his hands.
Vegeta, however, was another story. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
"D-damn it! What kind of monster is this?"
Vegeta wiped the blood from his mouth and stared at Janemba in disbelief.
They had both been injured in just one exchange. It was unbelievable.
Janemba turned to look at them as well.
"Janemba, Janemba!"
Still chanting, Janemba launched an attack on Son Goku and Vegeta.
"Damn it! He's looking down on us!"
"Hah!" Vegeta roared. Golden flames of ki erupted around him as he charged straight at Janemba.
Son Goku flared his ki as well and rushed after him.
Attacking from either side, they each drove a fist hard into Janemba's body.
But the instant their fists connected, their expressions changed drastically.
A powerful recoil struck them, sending both flying.
All the force of their punches had rebounded onto them.
Vegeta stared at Janemba, his expression as grim as could be.
Even when he had faced the Androids back then, he had never felt so helpless.
The creature before him was simply beyond his ability to handle.
"Vegeta, let me go first. You only just regained your body. You're still very weak..."
As Son Goku spoke, he clenched his fists and began raising his ki.
Vegeta's gaze kept shifting between Son Goku and Janemba.
A tangle of emotions filled his heart.
"Haaah!" With a roar, veins bulged on Son Goku's forehead. His aura began to seethe, and his ki climbed wildly.
But just then, King Enma's voice rang out.
"Goku, find a way to break the barrier around Enma Palace first! Hurry, or it'll be too late!"
A barrier?
Vegeta and Son Goku both looked toward the transparent energy dome enveloping all of Enma Palace.
