After a brief moment of astonishment, an idea suddenly occurred to Tarble.
With a base battle power of 677.8 million, he should be able to try transforming into Super Saiyan 2, right?
Let's give it a try!
He decided to do it right away!
Even though he could sense Rix waiting outside the Gravity Chamber, Tarble still decided to try breaking through to a new transformation.
Boom!
He transformed into a Super Saiyan in an instant.
Next, he'd use the same transformation method and see if it worked!
After psyching himself up and steadying his mind, he once again gathered his energy at his back, using the same special pattern of "slow at first, then fast."
Boom!
In an instant, his aura began to soar.
Outside the Gravity Chamber.
When Rix sensed Tarble's aura suddenly surging, he was shocked.
So powerful!
How had His Highness's aura suddenly become so strong?!
At the same time.
Vegeta, who was still training in another Gravity Chamber, also sensed the fluctuation in Tarble's aura.
"This aura... it's Tarble's!"
"Something's not right!"
"His aura wasn't this strong last night!"
"What on earth is going on... Could Tarble really be the Legendary Super Saiyan?!"
"Oh no!"
Realizing how serious the situation was, he didn't dare waste a moment.
Whoosh!
He flashed over to the gravity controls.
Click!
He pressed the button to shut off the gravity.
Then he dashed out of the Gravity Chamber.
As soon as he stepped outside, he realized that Tarble's aura seemed to have reached its peak and had stopped growing.
The moment he noticed this, Vegeta abruptly stopped. The panic in his eyes gave way to delight.
His aura was surging, but it wasn't chaotic!
This... this was!!
Could he have already broken through to Super Saiyan 2?!!!
But how was that possible!
He'd only just mastered full power yesterday...
His aura felt hundreds of times greater than it had yesterday...
What on earth was going on?!
Rix was over there too...
With a nervous heart, Vegeta quickly flew toward Tarble.
When he arrived and saw Tarble surrounded by golden flames shot through with thick white lightning, he was completely stunned.
He really had broken through to Super Saiyan 2!
That was the only thought in his mind.
Though still shocked, he slowly descended.
At the same time, Trunks, who had been startled by the commotion, arrived as well.
"Wow!"
"Uncle Tarble, you can turn into Super Saiyan 2!"
Tarble had sensed them coming. There was no way he could have missed a fluctuation in his aura this strong.
"Trunks, is this form beyond Super Saiyan called Super Saiyan 2?" Tarble glanced at himself and asked, pretending to be confused.
Trunks nodded excitedly. "Mm-hmm!"
"That's right, it's called Super Saiyan 2. My dad and Goten's dad can both reach this form."
"Oh, and Uncle Goku can even turn into Super Saiyan 3!"
"Uncle Tarble, you know what? Super Saiyan 3 looks so cool!"
"Goten and I can even turn into Super Saiyan 3 after we fuse!"
"That power is practically invincible!"
Caught up in his excitement, he rattled off a whole lot.
In the end, he even started bragging about himself. He was every bit the excitable kid.
Still, it gave Tarble an opening to keep the conversation going.
"There's a Super Saiyan 3 after Super Saiyan 2?"
"I thought that was just something I'd imagined!"
"So Super Saiyan 3 really exists?"
"Does that mean there's also a Super Saiyan 4 and Super Saiyan 5?"
"Or even transformations at higher levels?"
As he spoke, he pretended to look wide-eyed.
It wasn't entirely an act. He really did want to know if there were other transformations beyond Super Saiyan 3.
If there were, he would definitely strive toward them.
As for becoming a god, he'd think about that later.
In his view, God Ki would be more powerful if one's own strength was already high enough.
So if Saiyans had transformations at higher levels, they could train in God Ki afterward and become even stronger!
"Super Saiyan 4?"
"Super Saiyan 5?"
When Trunks heard those two new terms, a big question mark seemed to appear on his face.
How would he know if there were any other levels beyond Super Saiyan 3!
"Th-there probably are?"
"Haha!"
He answered uncertainly, then chuckled twice to cover his embarrassment and instinctively glanced at Vegeta beside him.
Vegeta's eyes lit up, and he declared with absolute certainty, "We Saiyans have no limits!"
"If there's a Super Saiyan 3, then there'll definitely be even higher-level transformations after it!"
"Tarble, your guess is definitely right!"
"When the time comes, I'll turn into a Super Saiyan 4 before that Kakarot!"
"I definitely will!"
His bright eyes showed that he'd found another goal to pursue in his training.
Become a Super Saiyan 4 first—and beat Kakarot for once while he was at it!
In an instant, his fighting spirit was renewed.
Seeing this, Tarble silently shook his head.
As expected, Vegeta and Son Goku were rivals who loved and hated each other!
He talked about surpassing Son Goku practically every day!
What a tangled relationship!
Still, he agreed with Vegeta.
"Big Brother's right. We Saiyans definitely have no limits!"
Vegeta nodded in agreement.
Only then did his attention return to Tarble.
After looking him up and down, he furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "Tarble, what's going on with you?"
"By all rights, you shouldn't be able to turn into Super Saiyan 2 already!"
"Kakarot, Son Gohan, and I trained for a long time after becoming Super Saiyans before we could turn into Super Saiyan 2!"
"You're completely defying common sense!"
"Could you really be the Legendary Super Saiyan?"
Sensing the strength of Tarble's aura, he felt his understanding of the world take a massive blow.
Without waiting for Tarble to answer, he noticed Trunks wearing a Scouter out of the corner of his eye and ordered, "Trunks, quickly check your Uncle Tarble's battle power!"
"Huh?"
"Oh, right!"
Trunks hurriedly fumbled with the Scouter and pressed the scanning button.
Beep beep beep—
When the beeping stopped, he suddenly cried out, "S-six... six hundred seventy-seven point eight million!"
"Dad, Uncle's battle power has reached 677.8 million!"
"That's amazing!"
"Yesterday it was only 1.39 million, and now it's soared this much just by breaking through to Super Saiyan 2!"
"I want to become a Super Saiyan 2 too!"
At that moment, his eyes seemed to gleam with golden light.
He genuinely thought Super Saiyan 2 could increase one's battle power by that much.
However.
His words earned him a scolding from his father, Vegeta.
"Idiot!"
"Trunks, are you stupid? How could Super Saiyan 2 possibly increase someone's battle power by that much!"
