Son Goku vs. Vegeta

Son Goku heard this and immediately glanced at Vegeta.

"Vegeta, your companion is still alive. If you leave now, I can let you go!"

"Let us go!"

Upon hearing this, Vegeta laughed out loud as if he had heard the greatest joke in the world.

"Kakarot, don't think that just because you have a little strength, you can be arrogant in front of me!

To tell you the truth, my current combat power is several times that of that guy!"

"Se... several times!"

Krillin and the others immediately wore expressions of shock upon hearing this.

Meanwhile, Son Gohan watched Vegeta as if he were watching a play.

If Son Gohan had chosen to act, he could have killed Vegeta instantly with a single move.

The only reason he chose not to intervene was to satisfy Son Goku's desire to fight Vegeta.

"Se... several times!"

Although Son Goku had held back some of his strength, his current Kaio-ken could only boost him by two times at most, unless... he disregarded his body's limits and pushed the Kaio-ken multiplier even higher.

But if he did that, his body would soon be unable to withstand the strain.

"That's right, Kakarot. Are you afraid?"

Son Goku smiled and said.

"If I were truly afraid, I wouldn't be fighting you!"

"That is true!"

As Vegeta spoke, he fired a blue energy wave from his right hand toward the large boulder pinning Nappa down.

BOOM!!

With a massive explosion, Nappa and the boulder crushing him were blasted into smithereens.

A large cloud of dust and thick smoke immediately rose from the ground.

"I, Vegeta, have no need for useless trash!"

Krillin and the others immediately wore expressions of horror upon seeing this.

They had not expected that Vegeta would actually kill his own man.

Son Goku clenched his fists upon seeing this.

Vegeta chuckled softly and flew to a small peak behind him.

Seeing this, Son Goku immediately flew to the small peak opposite Vegeta.

The distance between the two small peaks was no more than a few meters.

A light breeze blew, causing the hair on both of their heads to flutter.

"You should feel honored. An elite warrior like me rarely deigns to trade blows with a low-class one!"

Vegeta crossed his arms and said to Son Goku with a smile.

"Saiyans undergo a physical examination of their warrior potential the moment they are born. Children deemed too weak are sent to places without strong enemies, just like you were!"

"You are a recognized fool!"

Upon hearing this, Son Goku was not angry; instead, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Thanks to you, I was sent to this Earth. I really should thank you!

Besides, there is only a fine line between a genius and an idiot. With hard work, one can even surpass the elite!"

Vegeta sneered upon hearing this.

"A very interesting joke. Then, I will show you the chasm that you can never cross, no matter how hard you try!"

As Vegeta spoke, he set his hands into a fighting stance.

Seeing this, Son Goku also assumed a fighting stance.

Gusts of wind blew in from all directions, constantly stirring the surroundings.

Suddenly, Son Goku clenched his fists tightly, stepped forward with his right foot, and flew rapidly toward the peak where Vegeta stood.

"Ha!"

With a loud shout, Son Goku's fists moved like the wind, striking toward Vegeta's body.

Vegeta blocked with his hands, deflecting the blows that were originally aimed at him.

Son Goku retracted his fists and launched another wind-like flurry of attacks at Vegeta.

Vegeta raised his hands, parrying while simultaneously launching his own counterattacks against Son Goku.

After dozens of rounds of combat, Vegeta leaped backward, jumping several peaks away in an instant.

"Whoosh..."

Son Goku saw this and immediately gave chase.

Vegeta chuckled, stomped his right foot hard against the mountain behind him, and flew rapidly in front of the pursuing Son Goku, throwing a powerful punch forward.

BANG!!

Son Goku's face was struck with force, and his body was sent flying backward.

Just as Son Goku was about to collide with the mountain behind him, he stomped his feet against the ground and soared quickly into the air.

Son Goku scanned his surroundings, but Vegeta's figure suddenly appeared behind him, his right hand forming a blade as he struck at Son Goku.

"Whoosh..."

Son Goku dropped downward, spun his body rapidly, and kicked toward Vegeta.

Vegeta stepped back, dodging the kick.

Following that, the two began to trade blows, their fists and feet moving like the wind as they battled in the sky.

"Whoosh..."

BANG BANG BANG!!

After dozens of exchanges, Vegeta accelerated his hands, slamming both fists into Son Goku's body.

Son Goku let out a loud cry of pain, his body hunching slightly.

"Whoosh..."

At that moment, Vegeta's figure appeared above Son Goku, his hands clasped together into a hammer as he struck down at him with all his might.

BANG!!

With a violent crash, Son Goku's body plummeted downward like a beam of light.

Just as he was about to hit the small mountain, Son Goku performed a backflip and landed on the peak.

Seeing this, Vegeta immediately landed on the small mountain in front of Son Goku.

He is so strong. From the beginning until now, he hasn't even been serious. Both his speed and his combat ability are far above mine!

Son Goku looked at the confident Vegeta before him, unable to stop himself from praising him in his heart.

"Hurry up and make your move. Don't tell me you've already run out of strength?"

"I understand. I'll let you see..."

As Son Goku spoke, he clenched his fists tightly, a massive amount of heat radiating from his body as his skin turned crimson.

Then, a red aura rose from Son Goku's body.

"Kaio-ken!"

Son Goku raised his right hand, and a brilliant red light erupted from it.

Vegeta was startled and leaped upward with all his might.

With a deafening boom, the mountain where Vegeta had been standing was blasted away by more than half.

Seeing this, Son Goku immediately transformed into a streak of red light and charged toward Vegeta in the sky.

BANG!!

Son Goku's right fist struck Vegeta's face with force, snapping his head back.

Seizing the opportunity, Son Goku unleashed a flurry of punches, his right fist moving like the wind as he struck Vegeta's face dozens of times.

Following that, Son Goku raised his right leg and kicked Vegeta, sending him flying.

BOOM!!

Son Goku clenched his fists and dropped rapidly to the ground, charging toward the retreating Vegeta in the sky.

Just then, Vegeta's figure flashed, and he appeared instantly in front of Son Goku, kicking him hard under the chin.

The Kaio-ken aura dissipated from Son Goku's body, and he was sent flying backward for some distance.

Son Goku broke into a cold sweat, looking at Vegeta before him with a grave expression.

Seeing this, Vegeta smiled slightly.

"If this is your limit, then it is truly disappointing!"
