The First Super Saiyan Appears

Slug gathered a massive amount of ki, intending to send Son Goku to his grave in one fell swoop.

However, an unexpected scene unfolded.

Frieza narrowed his eyes, for he sensed that something was wrong with Son Goku.

Just as he had surged into mid-air, while still a significant distance from Slug, the red aura surrounding his body was actually shrinking.

When Son Goku was still 100 meters away from Slug, the ki waves around his body suddenly vanished.

It was not just the red aura brought on by the Kaio-ken; even the ordinary white ki waves had disappeared.

Son Goku had recklessly used the 30x Kaio-ken, and his body, unable to withstand the strain, had lost all combat power.

What a pity!

Frieza had wanted to see the power of the Dragon Fist; this was such a damn letdown!

Son Goku began to plummet, but Slug had no intention of letting him go, and the green energy sphere came crashing down fiercely!

Son Goku was the primary target, but at this moment, Gohan suddenly accelerated and arrived above his father.

"Krillin!! Get Dende to save my dad!!"

"Ah~ ah~ ah!!!"

"Masenko!!!"

Because of the wretched state of Son Goku, Gohan was enraged!

In the instant of his fury, his combat power surged 500-fold!

That's right, 500-fold—jumping directly from a combat power of 20,000 to 10 million!

The red wine Frieza had just taken into his mouth was truly spat out this time.

Damn it!

That is absolutely absurd!

"No!! Don't do it, Gohan!!"

Son Goku's eyes widened in fury, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream!

With a tenfold difference in combat power, it was impossible for Gohan to block it; only death awaited him!

"Frieza!! If you don't step in to save Gohan, I will—I will—"

Bulma stammered several times before realizing she could speak again, but—she seemingly had no way to threaten Frieza at all!

On the other side, Dende stopped pretending; after healing Vegeta, he tugged at the tattered battle armor and pleaded nervously.

"Mr. Vegeta, please, save Gohan! You are the only one who can save him now!"

Dende was not a combat-type Namekian, but he could feel the combat power that had surged instantly after he healed Vegeta.

Even if it was only for a split second, Dende had sensed the explosive power hidden within Vegeta!

Especially that glint of emerald green light that had appeared in Vegeta's eyes, which had nearly scared him stiff.

Cold, ruthless, and filled with aggression!

"Hmph! Useless trash of a father and son; in the end, it still falls to me, the Prince of all Saiyans, to clean up the mess!"

"Ha~~!!!"

"Ah~ ah~ ah!!!!"

Whoosh!!!

A golden radiance instantly enveloped Vegeta's entire body.

This time, Frieza nodded in satisfaction; it seemed Vegeta had been the first to break through his limits.

The battle just now had allowed Vegeta to shatter the limits of Saiyan combat power, rising from 2 million to 3 million, and it had also allowed him to successfully grasp the opportunity for transformation.

Having been nearly beaten to death four times in a single day, his pride had been insulted to the extreme; this intense pride allowed Vegeta to successfully transform into a Super Saiyan.

A Super Saiyan transformation was 50 times the base state!

In one stroke, he went from 3 million to 150 million!

He instantly crushed everyone present, save for Frieza.

His hair stood on end, turning into a flame-like golden shape, his sword-like eyebrows also turned gold, and there was not a single trace of white mixed into the aura surrounding him. In particular, those emerald green pupils caused Dende to collapse onto the ground in fright.

Thud!

With a single stomp against the ground, Vegeta shot into the sky, his speed reaching the absolute limit; he appeared beside Gohan almost instantly.

At this moment, Gohan had already fired the Masenko, but it failed to stop the descent of the green energy sphere, and the Masenko was instantly obliterated.

Exhausted after his outburst, Gohan could barely maintain his flight, intending to use his small body to shield his father from the energy sphere.

"Go down and stay with your useless father, and watch closely what a real Super Saiyan is!"

With a single hand pressed against Gohan's stomach, Gohan was sent crashing toward the ground like a cannonball.

It was fortunate that Vegeta had no intention of killing him, otherwise, Gohan would have surely gone bang and exploded!

Cold, ruthless eyes glanced at the green energy sphere overhead, and the corner of Vegeta's mouth curled up—this was his disdain for Slug!

"Ha!"

Vegeta raised his leg and delivered a flying kick toward the energy sphere.

Bang!

BOOM!!

The energy blast was kicked away by Vegeta, exploding in mid-air.

"Pah! 'King Slug,' you say? I am a Super Saiyan now; in my eyes, you are nothing but trash!"

Whoosh!

Vegeta went berserk!

A look of fear finally appeared in Slug's eyes!

He should have thought of it sooner; he should have guessed it!

The Saiyan race was a bug!

Every time they recovered, their combat power underwent an earth-shattering change; they were simply a race born for battle.

"No! Lord Frieza, save me!"

Slug was truly terrified.

Vegeta's gaze was so frightening—that look of ignoring everything, that murderous aura.

Slug no longer had any desire to fight.

Bang~!

BOOM!

Pfft~!

Bang!

"Awoo!!"

Slug was beaten until he had no fight left in him; he felt as if every bone in his body was about to snap, and many had already shattered!

Not only that, Slug's left arm had been broken off and had completely vanished. He could only clutch his shoulder, gasping for air as green blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

"Fri~ Fri~ Lord Frieza, save~ save me!"

Slug's eyes began to glaze over. With a gap of 50 million in combat power, he had no room to resist.

He could only keep calling out to Frieza. He was only here because Frieza had dragged him in as a scapegoat; Frieza couldn't just stand by and watch him die!

Creak~ creak!

The sound of unique footsteps—this could be considered Frieza's own personal BGM.

Slug had put on a very spectacular performance for Frieza, and Frieza truly didn't want to let Slug die just like that.

And so, he stepped out.

"Vegeta, Slug helped you become the first Super Saiyan, didn't he? Is this how you repay kindness with ingratitude?"

Vegeta looked at Frieza, who was taller than him, his eyes filled with disdain.

He exerted force with his foot, kicking Slug away; in the end, he still didn't kill him.

"Frieza! Planet Vegeta was destroyed by you! You even lied to me and said it was caused by a giant meteorite—do you really take me for a three-year-old child!!"

Vegeta's emotions became even more agitated, and the golden aura around his body expanded rapidly.

Judging solely by the aura, Vegeta's momentum seemed much stronger than Frieza's.

However, in reality, Vegeta's anger only brought a slight increase in power.

If the previous Vegeta had a combat power of 150 million, now it was at most 160 million!

This amount of combat power was not worth mentioning in the eyes of Frieza, who possessed a combat power of 250 million.

"Oh ho ho ho ho!"

"Vegeta, I remember you were five years old at the time, right? You certainly weren't a three-year-old child!"

Vegeta: ???

Everyone: ...

Son Goku, who was currently receiving treatment from Dende, nearly choked on his own laughter!
