Teaching a Few People

"This is the power I attained only after spending over a decade in the afterlife. It is a transformation that transcends the Super Saiyan, and then transcends it once more. I call it Super Saiyan 3."

Having said that, Goku let out a loud shout.

"Haaa—aaaaa~~~~!"

As Goku's voice rang out, a golden aura erupted around his body, followed by bolts of lightning crackling in the surroundings. The terrifying pressure forced everyone to retreat one after another.

"So... so terrifying."

Future Gohan stared at Goku in mid-air, muttering to himself.

Vegeta's eyes betrayed his deep frustration; if he had been allowed to keep his physical body after death, he likely would have reached this level as well.

The transformation continued, the horrific pressure spreading further. The light grew increasingly blinding, forcing the spectators to pull back even further.

Suddenly, Goku emitted a dazzling radiance, forcing the onlookers to shield their eyes.

After a gust of wind passed, they opened their eyes and looked back up at the sky. Goku now sported long hair reaching his waist, his gaze cold and ruthless. The absence of eyebrows only added to his intimidating presence.

"Damn it."

Has Kakarot really reached such a level?

Vegeta's heart was filled with even more resentment, his fists clenched tight.

The remaining three were left dumbfounded; never before had they witnessed such a terrifying aura.

Goku's immense pressure was so great that the surrounding space seemed on the verge of shattering.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Gogito."

Goku dispersed his aura and assumed a fighting stance.

Gogito mirrored his stance.

In an instant, both men vanished from their spots and reappeared on the ground, throwing punches simultaneously. The moment their fists collided, a massive crater formed beneath them. Immediately after, they reappeared in the sky, locked in a fierce exchange, each clash sending waves of air rippling outward.

As the battle intensified, Gogito gradually increased his power, and Goku began to fall behind. Seizing the opportunity, Gogito landed a heavy blow, sending Goku flying.

"Ka~me~ha~me~ha!"

"Ka~me~ha~me~ha!"

Both men condensed their energy simultaneously, unleashing their Kamehameha waves.

The two massive energies collided, instantly triggering a terrifying shockwave. Vegeta transformed into a Super Saiyan to brace against it, while Kid Gohan was blown away; fortunately, Vegeta was quick-witted and grabbed him by the leg. The other two also transformed into Super Saiyans to hold their ground.

Around the two combatants, the space began to fracture into small shards, the cracks growing larger the closer they were to the center of the energy.

The standoff remained deadlocked for a moment.

Sensing trouble, Gogito detonated the energy.

"Boom~ boom~ boom~~~!"

The horrific explosion blew the spectators away.

Goku crossed his arms to block the impact.

Gogito, however, remained calm, looking toward the explosion as his hair fluttered in the wind.

When the smoke cleared after the blast, only the two men remained standing in the sky, the ground below scarred by a massive crater from the sheer energy.

Looking at the destruction, Gogito felt a bit troubled. This space could not withstand the power he and Goku were exerting; if they continued, the dimension might collapse.

"That's enough, Kakarot. You've seen my power."

Gogito said to Goku.

Goku knew he couldn't keep fighting, but he remained unsatisfied, having not yet witnessed Gogito's full potential. He replied:

"Gogito, please, let me see your true power. I know you haven't used your full strength yet. You haven't even transformed into a Super Saiyan. I don't believe you aren't capable of it."

Gogito's base power already surpassed Super Saiyan 3; his transformed state would be even more terrifying.

"There's no helping you, then. I'll let you see it."

Gogito turned to the others who had been blown back by the shockwave and said:

"You all come over here, too. I might as well teach you while I'm at it."

The group in the distance stood up instantly and flew over to Gogito's side.

Gogito began his lesson, speaking up:

"You all know about the Super Saiyan, right?"

The group nodded, though Kid Gohan looked completely bewildered.

"A Super Saiyan is a transformation triggered when a Saiyan's combat power reaches a certain level, allowing them to draw out their inner strength through rage."

With that, Gogito instantly transformed into a Super Saiyan.

"It's this state right here."

"The Super Saiyan transformation increases one's power by fifty times. This is the state that Future Gohan and Trunks have currently achieved."

"This state consumes energy even when not fighting, and it drains stamina rapidly during combat."

"Next is the second stage of Super Saiyan 1."

Gogito roared, his muscles swelling slightly.

"This is a further enhancement. Reaching this stage, defeating those two Androids will be no problem."

"The speed and power of this form are significantly improved, but the ki consumption is very fast, making it unsuitable for prolonged combat."

"Next is the flawed transformation."

Gogito's muscles expanded once more, his physique becoming much larger.

"Although power is increased, speed is relatively reduced. If you can't hit the enemy, even the greatest strength is useless."

After saying this, Gogito returned to his lean form.

"Below is the most suitable combat form for a Super Saiyan. I call it Super Saiyan Full Power. It can perfectly utilize the power of a Super Saiyan and overcomes all of a Super Saiyan's shortcomings."

Super Saiyan Full Power looks no different from a regular Super Saiyan.

"Now, next is Super Saiyan 2, which is a hundredfold increase over the base state."

Lightning crackled around Gogito's body, his hair stood fixed upward—unlike the flowing hair of Super Saiyan 1—and his gaze became much sharper.

"If I'm not mistaken, Vegeta should have reached this realm by now."

Gogito said.

"That's right. Having stayed in Hell for so many years, I have already grasped this realm, but I lacked a physical body to train with it."

Vegeta replied.

"Next is the Super Saiyan 3 that Goku just used."

Gogito let out a loud shout, transforming into Super Saiyan 3.

"Although this form has immense power, it places a heavy burden on the body and leaks ki, so it cannot be used for long battles."

"The combat power is 400 times that of the base state."

Gogito stated the drawbacks of Super Saiyan 3.

"Correct."

Goku affirmed Gogito's words.

"Finally, there is Super Saiyan 4, which is achieved by drawing out the power of the Saiyan tail."

Veins bulged on Gogito's forehead as terrifying power radiated outward. Red fur grew over his body, his tail also turned red, his black hair reached his shoulders, and his eyes were rimmed in red, exuding a violent, wild nature.

"Sorry, I have only just mastered this form and cannot control the energy skillfully yet."

The energy radiating from Super Saiyan 4 left everyone trembling with fear.

"This is the extent of my power, Kakarot."

Gogito said to Goku.

"Wow, so amazing! I never knew such a transformation existed."

Goku said, his face full of excitement.

"There are still many more Saiyan transformations, but I have not mastered them yet."

Gogito reverted to his base state and spoke to the group.

Everyone was stunned upon seeing Super Saiyan 4.

"The Super Saiyan 4 transformation is still too far off for you two. Focus on mastering Super Saiyan 2 first."

Gogito said to Future Gohan and Trunks.

He then turned to Goku and Vegeta.

"The Super Saiyan 4 transformation requires the use of a tail. By transforming into a Super Saiyan while in the Great Ape state, it creates a power born from the combination of a Super Saiyan and a Great Ape."
