"Why does it feel like... he's venting some personal grudge?"
On the battlefield.
Son Satoshi, arms crossed, hovered to the side, watching his younger brother being rubbed against the ground, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hehe..."
"As expected."
Son Satoshi shook his head.
"How could Saiyan Prince not be able to control his Great Ape Transformation?"
"This guy is clearly perfectly sober."
"He's taking this opportunity to get revenge and settle personal scores."
It was rubbed for quite a while.
Goku, who had been holding back and not wanting to hurt Vegeta, finally got annoyed by the sand on the ground.
"Hey! Vegeta!"
Goku peeked out from between his fingers, his face covered in dust and dirt.
"That's enough, isn't it?!"
"I know you're faking it! Your tail's wagging wildly with glee!"
"Roar?"
The Golden Great Ape paused for a moment.
Were they found out?
"Since you won't let go, then I won't be polite!"
Goku's eyes narrowed.
boom!!!
A massive burst of red flames erupted from his body in an instant.
Super Saiyan 4!
Under the impact of the powerful force, the Golden Great Ape's enormous fingers were forcibly pried open.
Goku transformed into a streak of red light, instantly breaking free of his restraints and soaring into the air.
He dusted himself off and looked helplessly at the Great Ape below.
"Honestly, someone this old still plays these kinds of tricks."
"Cut."
Seeing that Goku had broken free, Great Ape Vegeta, stopped pretending.
"Roar..."
He snorted coldly, and a dazzling golden light began to shine around his massive body.
That's a sign of power compression.
Buzz--!!!
The enormous Great Ape's body began to shrink rapidly, and the golden light shone as brightly as the sun, illuminating the entire desolate planet.
A few seconds later.
The light faded.
A brand new figure stands proudly on the earth.
He was also shirtless, covered in bright red body hair, but unlike Goku's wildness, his muscles were more defined and sharp. (Perhaps the tight muscles were due to his shorter stature? Just kidding.)
The eyes were also surrounded by red eyeshadow, which made the emerald green pupils appear even more aloof and arrogant.
Behind it, its red tail swayed gently.
Super Saiyan 4 -- Vegeta!
"Is this... the power of Super Saiyan 4?"
Vegeta slowly raised his hands and gave them a firm, loose clench.
Click!
The air itself seemed to be crushed by this force.
The overwhelming sense of power, filling his entire body and making him feel as if he could punch through the universe, made Vegeta close his eyes in ecstasy.
"Hmph hmph hmph... Hahahaha!!!"
Vegeta couldn't help but laugh wildly, looking up at the sky.
"Fantastic! This is the attitude a prince should have!!"
"The Legendary Super Saiyan... the gods... are all insignificant in the face of this power!!"
After laughing.
Vegeta suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp gaze instantly locking onto Goku in the air.
" Kakarot."
Vegeta's lips curled into a bloodthirsty grin as he beckoned to Goku with a finger.
"Get down."
"Let's finish the fight we weren't done with earlier."
"Was that considered a fight? Well, that's exactly what I was thinking!"
Goku grinned, his eyes instantly igniting with fighting spirit.
All past grievances and frustrations about being pranked vanished in that instant.
For Saiyan, as long as they can have a good, satisfying fight, everything else is trivial.
"Come on, Vegeta!"
Boom! Boom!
Two extremely terrifying auras erupted simultaneously.
There was no probing.
There was no foreplay whatsoever.
The two of them, in their strongest Super Saiyan 4 forms, transformed into two streaks of red lightning and collided fiercely in mid-air!
"Thump!!!"
This collision was like two planets colliding.
The terrifying shockwave spread out in a ring, instantly shattering the plateau beneath their feet.
Countless boulders were swept into the sky, only to be pulverized by the aftershocks of their battle before they could fall back down.
"Da da da da da da!!!!"
The two figures moved at an extreme speed, disappearing long before ordinary people could see them; all that could be seen were the constantly exploding sparks and distorted space in the sky.
Fist against fist! Foot against foot!
Each collision was accompanied by a dull thud of flesh striking flesh.
"Haa!!"
Vegeta delivered a powerful punch to Goku's face.
Goku dodged to the side and then delivered a backhand elbow strike to Vegeta's chest.
Vegeta crossed his arms to block, using the momentum to retreat, and then unleashed a Big Bang Attack!
" Kamehameha!!"
Goku instantly unleashed Kamehameha, and the two energies collided in mid-air, causing a violent explosion.
Two figures darted through the dust and smoke, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.
"Wow... that's amazing!!"
Pan, watching from a distance, was dumbfounded.
"Is this what Super Saiyan 4 battle is like? I can't even see the moves!"
"That's too powerful..."
Yamcha swallowed.
"In a battle of this level, we probably wouldn't last even a second."
As the only person in the entire arena who could clearly see the movements, Son Satoshi watched with great interest, even making his own comments in his mind.
"Well played, very stylish and entertaining."
Son Satoshi nodded, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes.
When he watched Dragon Ball GT in his previous life, his biggest regret was not being able to see Super Saiyan 4 Goku and Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta actually fight.
In the original story, Vegeta was forced to Fusion with Goku to fight Omega Shenron immediately after transforming, and he didn't have a chance to show his individual Super Saiyan 4 power.
Now, this regret has finally been made up for.
but...
As he watched, Son Satoshi's brows furrowed slightly.
His all-seeing eyes discovered something different.
"That Goku Wukong... he's holding back."
Son Satoshi thought to himself.
Although the two appeared to be evenly matched, with Vegeta even occasionally gaining the upper hand and arrogantly dominating Goku, the scene was quite different.
But Son Satoshi could see it.
Goku always left himself room to maneuver in every move he made.
His breathing rate and energy mobilization were far from reaching their limits.
This inevitably reminded Son Satoshi of the eternal debate in the Dragon Ball series about the strength of these two characters.
In the settings of Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball Super, Goku and Vegeta's strength in the same form has always been roughly the same.
In some instances, Vegeta was even slightly stronger (such as Beerus's outburst of anger after being beaten by Bulma in Battle of Battle of Gods ).
Goku always wins because he's always one version ahead ( Kaioken, Super Saiyan Full Power, Super Saiyan 3, Ultra Instinct ).
If everyone is Super Saiyan 1, or Super Saiyan Blue without Kaioken, it's really hard to say who will win or lose.
but.
This is the GT Timeline.
The author of GT is clearly a proponent of the " Goku is supreme" mentality.
In GT, Goku's strength is on a completely different level.
Faced with the same enemy, Vegeta was easily killed, but Goku (even Goku in his normal, shrunk form) could put up a good fight.
This power imbalance is criticized, but it's a fact within the GT universe.
While Vegeta has also transformed into Super Saiyan 4, theoretically he should still be no match for Goku.
But now...
The two actually fought to a draw?
"Hehe..."
Son Satoshi looked at Goku in the arena, who was getting beaten up while still wearing an expression that said, "Wow, you're so strong, I can't take it anymore," and couldn't help but shake his head.
"That acting... you deserve an Oscar, Scumbag Kakarot."
