High above the luxury cruise ship, ten thousand meters in the sky.
Sacred red flames and purple energy split the entire sky in two.
"Haaah!"
Son Goku let out an excited roar.
His entire body became a dazzling red streak of light, taking the lead in breaking the stalemate!
Carrying terrifying momentum that could destroy anything in its path, he threw a plain, powerful punch straight at Beerus's face!
Faced with this fierce attack.
Beerus did not even make a move to dodge.
He merely raised his right hand casually.
"Bang—!"
A dull sonic boom erupted between them!
Beerus's seemingly slender palm was like an immovable iron wall.
It firmly caught Son Goku's incoming iron fist.
Violent shockwaves swept outward, tearing apart the surrounding clouds.
However.
There was not the slightest anger on Beerus's face. Instead, a satisfied smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Not bad."
Beerus gripped Goku's fist and gave his assessment with a smile.
"That strength is far greater than when we fought on King Kai's Planet."
"Super Saiyan God..."
"This God Ki truly has not disappointed me."
Son Goku felt the recoil traveling through his fist.
Using the force, he flipped backward and opened up the distance between them.
"Hehe."
Goku grinned, his eyes brimming with fervent fighting spirit.
"Lord Beerus, you really are an incredible opponent!"
"Fighting you is seriously exhilarating!"
The moment his words fell.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Both figures vanished from midair at the same instant!
The next moment.
High in the sky above.
One red and one purple afterimage collided like two meteors crashing into each other again and again.
A savage close-quarters battle began.
"Bang! Smack! Boom!"
The dull roars of fists and kicks colliding echoed through the heavens like a dense barrage of rolling thunder.
During one fierce exchange.
