Vegeta flew above the forest and mocked Super 17 below.
"What? You couldn't even withstand that little attack?"
"You've really disappointed me!"
Just then, Super 17 suddenly appeared behind Vegeta, smashing a massive energy blast into his back and sending him flying.

Super 17 panted heavily, drenched in sweat. The muscles on his body began
