Artificial Moon: Sun Wukong Makes His Move

On a small island somewhere on Earth.

Vegeta's shattered pride suffered yet another critical blow.

"Kakarot..." Vegeta began as if to question something, but the words died on his lips, unable to be spoken!

"You must be the Prince Vegeta that Raditz spoke of. I can tell you in all responsibility that bloodline rank proves nothing!" Sun Wukong seemed to understand what he wanted to ask.

Over on Nappa's side!

"Raditz... tell me, how did you do it?"

"I already told you just now!" Raditz maintained the flow of the King Kai Fist and said indifferently.

"Impossible, I absolutely refuse to believe that a mere low-class warrior could train you to this level, and in only four months at that!" No matter how Raditz explained it, Nappa simply would not believe him.

"Enough, Raditz. I gave you face, but since he doesn't want to live, stop wasting time. I'm too lazy to wait!" Son Gohan watched their battle as if watching a monkey show.

In his heart, he felt it was a complete waste of his time!

Piccolo stood to the side, silent, though if one looked closely, the corner of his mouth was twitching slightly!

At this very moment, a fierce jealousy had sprouted within Piccolo's heart!

Damn it, any random Saiyan can catch up to me. It seems the matter of fusing with Kami needs to be put on the schedule! If I rely only on meditation to cultivate my consciousness, who knows how far they'll leave me behind!!

Having finished his thought, Piccolo no longer had the mood to watch the fight. He floated up and flew away from the battlefield!

"Huh? What's wrong with Piccolo?" Krillin asked, puzzled.

"Heh, perhaps that glass heart of his has shattered!" Son Gohan had guessed Piccolo's thoughts.

He didn't stop Piccolo from leaving; after all, this was a minor scene that anyone could handle.

(Tien Shinhan: Am I a joke to you?)

(Krillin: Me neither.)

(Chiaotzu: ...)

Back to the main topic!

"Nappa, I'll give you one last chance: live, or die!!!" Hearing Son Gohan's urging, Raditz grew anxious.

After all, on a deeper level, it was Son Gohan who had saved his life, and he had surrendered to Son Gohan!

During these four months, although he had been beaten by Sun Wukong tens of thousands of times, he had also felt a sliver of warmth.

Sun Wukong and Son Gohan, father and son, did not treat him like a dog or look down on him; they treated him like family—one called him Big Brother, the other called him Uncle!

Although Chi-Chi was an Earthling, she had been very tolerant of him, this unexpected guest!

Training, eating, and sleeping every day... without a care in the world. It had been a long time since anyone had treated him like a human being!

Within the Frieza Force, those stronger than him were everywhere, and those who looked down on him were just as numerous!

He thoroughly enjoyed his current life and secretly made up his mind: if anyone dared to disturb this life, he would personally eliminate them!

A trace of killing intent radiated from Raditz! His gaze locked fiercely onto Nappa.

It was as if he would kill him immediately if he dared to utter another word of nonsense.

"I... I... if Prince Vegeta surrenders, then I will surrender too!!" Nappa's mind was simple, but he wasn't stupid!

Vegeta was still standing there, perfectly fine!

If he agreed to Raditz now, would Vegeta settle the score with him later after winning?

After all... the fear Vegeta instilled in him was far greater than anything Raditz could cause!

"Hmph, then stay there and keep watching!! If you make a single move, I'll kill you on the spot!" Raditz still didn't strike.

He then flew to Gohan's side.

"Gohan, I'm sorry!!" Raditz confessed his failure.

"It's fine, I heard it all. He doesn't affect the big picture! Just handle it yourself!" Gohan waved his hand, not blaming him.

On Sun Wukong's side!

"Heh... hahaha... Good... a very good Kakarot, a very good Raditz!!" Vegeta suddenly burst into wild laughter.

Sun Wukong frowned. He was certain that Vegeta was not stupid and must be able to see the gap between them, so why was he still being so arrogant?

"Vegeta, leave Earth. You are no match for me!" Sun Wukong advised him kindly.

With his current combat power of 500,000, he felt no fighting spirit toward Vegeta at all.

Kind words are hard to use to persuade a ghost determined to die!

Vegeta did not accept his goodwill and instead sneered: "Heh heh heh, Kakarot, I see the tail behind you is gone... it must have been cut off!! Do you know the difference between a low-class warrior and a high-class warrior? It's that high-class warriors can maintain their reason after transforming into a Great Ape. Even if your combat power is over a hundred thousand now, once you transform into a Great Ape, your power will skyrocket tenfold. I have a full 240,000 in combat power; what do you have to fight me with??"

As Vegeta spoke, he raised his hand to condense energy. By the time he finished, a bright, pure orb of light had appeared in his palm!

"Gohan... whatever you do, don't look up. Even after I transform into a Great Ape, I can't control my reason!!" Seeing this, Raditz was so frightened he hurriedly lowered his head.

"Artificial Moon, appear!!" Vegeta threw the orb of light in his hand high into the sky!

The orb exploded in the air, transforming into a bright, pure full moon!

Nappa also lowered his head, having no intention of transforming!

Gohan, meanwhile, watched calmly, neither looking up nor down!

Vegeta looked toward the high sky, bathed in the radiation of the Burz Light!

Vegeta's face began to contort, his body surged in size, and black fur sprouted all over him!

Because his battle armor was highly elastic, it did not burst!

Five meters, ten meters, fifteen meters...

A few minutes later, Vegeta stood upon the Earth like a giant beast!

"Hahaha, Kakarot... do you feel the might of this Prince?" Vegeta roared with wild laughter.

"Heh, strong? Not really." The dormant fighting spirit of Sun Wukong finally stirred just a little!

He deliberately suppressed his ki, controlling it to be roughly on par with Vegeta's!

Then, he slowly floated into the high sky, standing face-to-face with the Great Ape!

"Arrogant!" Vegeta raised his massive hands and swiped them directly toward Sun Wukong!

Clap!

"I will crush you! Hm?!" Vegeta opened his hands in confusion, finding no trace of Sun Wukong!

"Crush me? With what will you crush me?"

It turned out that Sun Wukong had used high-speed movement to dodge the attack and reappeared in an instant!

The appearing Sun Wukong stood on his nose, and while speaking, he raised his fist and smashed it down hard!

Bang!

"Pain! You bastard!"

For any humanoid creature, the nose is an unavoidable weak point; Sun Wukong's heavy punch sent tears streaming and blood gushing from his nostrils!

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! So much blood..." Sun Wukong flashed away rapidly, jumping left and right to dodge the blood spraying from Vegeta's nose!

"You bastard!"

Sun Wukong's provocation caused Vegeta to lose his reason entirely!

The man—no, the beast—used all his strength to attack Sun Wukong!

But his attacks did not land a single hit on Sun Wukong!

His body had grown larger and his combat power had increased, but his speed had decreased due to his bloated frame!

Of course, this was relative; if Sun Wukong only had a combat power of around 100,000 at this moment, Vegeta's speed would still be very fast to him!

But unfortunately, Sun Wukong was still suppressing a portion of his combat power!

"Kakarot... will you only dodge?" The helpless Vegeta could only rage, resorting to taunts!

"Fine, then I won't dodge!" Sun Wukong's high-speed flashing body stopped instantly, face-to-face with Vegeta!

"Hmph. If you have the guts, take a punch from me!" Vegeta swung his massive fist, striking directly toward Sun Wukong's body!

"I'll do the same!"

Sun Wukong did not dodge or defend; instead, he raised his own fist and smashed it toward the sky-blocking giant fist in front of him!

BOOM!!!

The moment the two fists collided, layers of shockwaves were stirred up!

The dust within the aura field was swept away completely!

Vegeta was seen retreating three steps, while Sun Wukong stood proudly in the air, not moving back even an inch!

"Impossible... I currently have a full 220,000 in combat power. With your measly 100,000-plus combat power, it is impossible for you to take my strike head-on!"

"Who told you that was my full power? The ki that leaked out earlier because of my anger was probably only a small fraction of my full strength!" Sun Wukong was honest, revealing his own bottom line directly.

"You are bluffing me, I don't believe it... If you have the guts, take my final strike. If you dodge, the Earth will explode because of it!"

Vegeta was seen rising into the high sky as he spoke!

At the same time, he pulled his fur-covered hands back, and a terrifying, violent purple energy condensed in the center of his palms!

His body was also enveloped by the terrifying purple energy mass!

"Galick Gun..."

A ten-meter-thick beam of energy shot down from the high sky in an instant!

The powerful energy pressure caused the Earth to tremble directly!

"The classic scene is here!" Son Gohan watched with interest, his mind recalling the scene of Sun Wukong and Vegeta's first beam struggle from his past life's memories!

Although there were some differences!

But the situation exceeded his expectations!

Sun Wukong was seen spreading his hands, crouching slightly in the air, "Come on!!" Sun Wukong raised his aura by another sliver!

He chose to meet it head-on with his body!!

This action struck Vegeta even harder, and he poured more power into his attack, raising his energy by another sliver!!

Boom!!

"He... he blocked it? Impossible!!" Nappa was stunned, unable to believe what he was seeing.

Vegeta couldn't believe it either!!

"So hot, so hot!!! Go away!!"

The scorching Galick Gun burned Sun Wukong's palm, making it give off a slight aroma of cooked meat. He quickly raised his knee and kicked, directly deflecting the Galick Gun's trajectory. The Galick Gun changed course by 45 degrees, shooting towards the sky and dissipating into the cosmic expanse...
