"Vegeta, that was a pretty good show of bravado; I admire you." Before anyone knew it, Sun Wumian suddenly appeared among the group.
That's right, he had used Instant Transmission to return to Earth, arriving just in time to witness Vegeta's cool entrance.
"Hey, Wumian, Instant Transmission again? Seriously, you always just pop in and out of existence," Krillin complained.
"Kakarot, you were too naive. You discovered the changes in your body, yet you forced yourself to transform into a Super Saiyan, which only accelerated the onset of your heart virus."
Following this, Vegeta kicked Sun Wukong over. "Which one of you is taking him home? Make sure he takes that medicine from before."
"Goku!"
"Dad!"
"I'll take him back," Yamcha stepped forward. "It's truly shameful; I haven't been able to help at all."
"This is a viral heart disease, it might be contagious, so you should take medicine too," Piccolo warned.
"Yamcha, I'm counting on you. Dad... he has to get better."
"Don't worry, Gohan. After taking the medicine, Goku will be fully recovered in three days," Sun Wumian said with a smile, accidentally dropping another spoiler.
"Really?"
"Good luck, you guys!" Yamcha said, hoisting Goku onto his back before leaving.
"Number 19, no need to chase them!" Android 19 was about to pursue, but was called back by Dr. Gero.
"Saving the most interesting part for last is a pleasure in itself. First, let's finish off these small fries; adding Vegeta to the mix should be even more entertaining," Dr. Gero continued.
"Number 20, there is one extra person on their side. There is a 70% probability that it is the guy called Yamcha, but the problem is, the one who just flew away was also Yamcha. How strange."
"Hey, Wumian, you should step in now, right? Goku was defeated, and Vegeta probably isn't a match for them either," Krillin said, looking toward Sun Wumian.
"Don't panic. There are at least three people here who can beat these Androids, wouldn't you agree, Piccolo?" Sun Wumian said calmly, glancing at Piccolo.
"Oh? You know that too?" Piccolo asked, surprised.
Sun Wumian certainly knew; Piccolo had been hiding his true strength. His combat power was 168 million, far exceeding the initial combat powers of Android 19 and 20, which were 85 million and 90 million respectively.
"Number 20, I will be the one to deal with Vegeta..."
"How greedy. You have already absorbed a great deal of energy from Sun Wukong... fine, leave the rest to me."
"Hmph! You aren't actually as strong as the legends say. After watching your performance just now, I already know that." Facing the Androids, Vegeta smiled confidently.
"Heh heh, I know everything about you!" The shoe print on Number 19's face hadn't even faded, and he laughed in an exceptionally ridiculous manner.
"We are Saiyans; it's hard to calculate our limits. You seemed quite surprised when Kakarot became a Super Saiyan, which means your data is outdated. I only need to watch out for those palms of yours that absorb energy."
"I'd like to see if Androids are capable of feeling fear... Hah!" Vegeta clenched his fists, and a massive shockwave made it hard for everyone to breathe.
Vegeta transformed into a Super Saiyan! Combat power: 250 million!
"Heh heh! No matter how you change, you won't be able to defeat us Androids, just like Sun Wukong."
Number 19 flew forward with a powerful punch, landing squarely on Vegeta's face.
"Hmph! Just as I thought, nothing special!"
Vegeta wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb. "I forgot to mention, Super Saiyans have rather short tempers... You don't feel pain, do you? How lucky for you!"
Vegeta began his counterattack, moving with astonishing speed and kicking his opponent away with a brutal strike.
Number 19 was surprisingly durable and tried to seize the moment to counterattack, but Vegeta reacted faster. He fell backward, braced his hands against the ground, and used his legs to launch his opponent into the air.
He then pursued him and landed another punch. "Hmph, was that blood or oil?"
Whoosh! Number 19 fired beams from his eyes, but it was useless; Vegeta dodged them with ease.
With a final volleyball-style strike, he slammed his opponent into the ground, creating a massive crater.
"Pathetic!" Vegeta landed and said with contempt.
"Heh heh heh! I've got you now. I won't let go until I've drained all your energy!"
"Is that so? Hah!" Vegeta stomped his feet onto Number 19's face and pushed off with all his might.
Snap!
"So that's where you absorb energy—from your palms..." Vegeta looked at the severed Android arm he was holding before tossing it aside.
"Wah... ughhh..." Android 19 scrambled away in terror, clutching his head.
"Feeling afraid now, Android? Take this, my super attack!"
Vegeta fired a ki blast from one hand, aiming it at the fleeing Android 19.
BOOM!
All that remained of Android 19 was a round head rolling on the ground.
Seeing the situation turn sour, Dr. Gero immediately fled.
"Hey, Vegeta, the other one got away! He's hiding over by those rocks," Tien Shinhan called out, having spotted him with his third eye.
"Tch, go home and drink your milk, don't get in my way." Vegeta finished speaking and flew off at high speed, a mist of energy forming around him as he gave chase.
Although Vegeta had some of his energy absorbed by Number 19, he hadn't used his full strength yet, which was why he pursued him without hesitation.
"I'm going over to take a look; I want to confirm that the Androids are dead," Tien Shinhan said.
"I'm going too. Isn't that what all this training was for?" Gohan said.
"I'm in as well. What about you, Wumian? Even though Vegeta has gotten stronger, with your power, you should be even more formidable than him, right? Why aren't you making a move?" Krillin asked.
"There's no need for me to intervene. Have you ever seen an elephant go out of its way to crush an ant? You guys go ahead and chase them; I'm waiting for someone here."
Sun Wumian spoke casually, and the person he was waiting for was, of course, Little Trunks.
"You are no match for that Number 20. He is likely hiding within Rock Mountain. Since he is an Android, you won't be able to track him by his ki. Be extra careful, and if you find him, notify me or Vegeta," Piccolo said in closing.
Gohan, Krillin, Tien Shinhan, and Piccolo took off in pursuit.
Above a small island nine kilometers southwest of South City, the figure of Future Trunks appeared.
"What's going on? The island is a mess, and Sun Wukong and the others are nowhere to be found. Did I really arrive too late?" Trunks muttered to himself.
"I wanted to set the Time Machine a bit earlier, but there was only enough energy left for the return trip... Huh? Ki, I sense the aura of battle. That's right, they must be fighting somewhere else."
Whoosh!
"Did you see that? It's that person from the future. He's heading to the fight, too. This is definitely the right direction." It turned out to be Bulma flying a plane with Yajirobe and Little Trunks, who were also looking to join the fray; they had just happened to spot the high-speed flight of Trunks.
