"Here he is." Buu patted his round belly, grinned, and let out a dull gurgling sound from his stomach.
"You... what did you say? You... ate him?" Merus's face changed instantly, his red pupils narrowed suddenly, and his eyes were fixed on Buu's smiling fat face.
His eyes fell involuntarily on the gently swaying round belly of Buu, and a picture that he didn't want to believe came to mind.
Buu nodded vigorously, with a proud expression on his face as if he was showing off a new toy he just got.
"Unforgivable... Absolutely unforgivable! Spit him out, now!" Merus's anger exploded in his chest, and two wisps of hot green smoke actually came out of his nostrils.
"You were the ones who provoked us first... We did a good job of blowing up the planet here, but you have to rush up and cause trouble." Buu smiled even happier, and stretched out his fat hand to pat his belly twice.
"I'm going to kill you!" Merus let out a deafening roar, kicked his feet, and his whole body turned into a dark red stream of light and rushed towards Buu.
Buu does not retreat or flash at all.
The new power that integrated all the energy of Toppo in his body exploded at this moment, and dark purple destructive flames ignited around him, more intense than ever before.
He looked at Merus's angry face getting closer and closer, and stretched his right arm forward...
The already thick pink arm suddenly lengthened, extending forward at an incredible speed. The fist instantly crossed the distance between the two people and hit Merus firmly on the chest.
"Bang!"
"Ouch..."
Merus let out a short scream, and was hit by the punch and flew backwards, doing countless somersaults in the air.
"Boom!"
Merus plunged headlong into the still-burning debris of the planet below. His body penetrated several layers of still-exploding star core fragments, and was instantly engulfed in a sea of surging orange-red firelight and dark-blue arcs of debris, leaving only a faint humanoid impact ripple slowly spreading on the surface of the flames.
"Eh? Are you dead? I just punched you." Buu retracted his arm that had been extended several times, scratched the back of his head, and looked down at his fist that was still steaming, with a look of disappointment on his face.
Evaluating based on objective strength, it would have been impossible for Buu to defeat either Toppo or Merus head-on at his own level.
But after completely absorbing Toppo, Buu's current strength is equivalent to all of his own energy plus all of Toppo's Divine Power.
The superposition of the two has steadily surpassed Merus by one position.
The punch just now seemed random, but it actually contained the combined force of Buu itself plus Toppo.
"Whoops!"
Merus is not dead.
A dark red stream of light rushed out from the surging planet debris, dragging a long energy tail flame and rushing towards Buu at a speed several times faster than before.
His whole body was covered with glowing magma and star core fragments, and his red skin had several scorch marks burned by the high temperature, but the murderous intent in his eyes only increased.
"Bang!"
Merus's entire body turned into an outgoing cannonball, and his right hand was clenched into a fist. The fist was condensed with the force of compressing it with all his strength, and it slammed into Buu's body from the front.
His fist filled with energy penetrated directly from the center of Buu's chest, leaving a large circular hole with black smoke rising from the edge on Buu's pink body.
"Hmph... If you dare to provoke me, this will be your fate." Merus looked at the still smoking big hole in Buu's chest, and the corner of his mouth raised a cold arc.
He retracted the arm that penetrated Buu's body, and there were still pink tissue residues burned by Destruction Energy on the fist surface.
Looking at Buu again, he just looked down at the big hole in his chest, tilted his head, then raised his head and grinned at Merus.
There was no pain in the smile, not even discomfort. It was more like being tickled and feeling a little bit amused.
"Can you still laugh?" Merus frowned suddenly and stared at Buu's grinning mouth for several seconds.
He has fought countless tough battles and seen countless opponents' reactions when faced with fatal injuries...
Fearful, angry, desperate, pretending to be calm...
But he had never seen someone smile so brightly after being punched in the chest with a hole the size of his head.
An indescribable ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart.
"Crack!"
Buu took a deep breath and suddenly pulled his round belly inward. The pink flesh wall around the hole that was still smoking on his chest gathered towards the center at a speed visible to the naked eye, and countless fine granulations protruded from the edges and intertwined with each other.
In the blink of an eye, the big hole punched out by Merus disappeared completely.
The chest returned to its original smooth and complete shape, without even a scar left.
"Can you regenerate? Can you repair a penetrating injury of this level instantly?" Merus's voice deepened, and the contempt on his face was completely replaced by vigilance.
"How should I take care of you... You don't look very good like this now. Your skin is too red and it hurts your throat." Buu scratched the back of his head, tilted his head and thought seriously for a while.
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if a light bulb had been turned on in his head, and a brilliant idea emerged.
Immediately afterwards, Buu made an action that made everyone present's eyes tremble.
He stretched out two chubby hands, pinched a small piece of skin on the right side of his round belly, pinched the piece of soft pink fat with two fingers, and then pulled it out hard.
There was no bleeding or wound. The moment the piece of flesh he pulled off left his body, it turned into an independent mass of pink gelatinous substance that slowly squirmed in his palm, exuding the same faint fluorescence as himself.
The corners of Vegeta's eyes and mouth twitched violently several times.
This guy was truly an out-and-out monster, far more outrageous than anything he had ever seen before.
"Don't you feel pain? Just tear off a piece of flesh like this?" Vegeta finally couldn't hold it back and blurted out.
"Hehe... it doesn't hurt at all! It's almost like pulling out a thread from a piece of clothing!" Buu turned around and grinned at Vegeta.
Vegeta closed his mouth and didn't want to say another word.
Buu put the pink gelatinous substance pulled out from his body between his two palms, kneaded it back and forth twice like kneading dough, then pinched one end with both hands and pulled it out suddenly.
He pulled the ball of flesh into a long, extremely thin flesh-colored rope, with a smooth and flexible surface. It trembled slightly between Buu's hands, like some kind of living whip.
