Son Goku vs. Super 17

Lei Chen did not dodge, instead extending his own fist to collide directly with his opponent's.

"Bang!"

A deafening sound of impact resounded throughout the entire city.

"Whew~"

A powerful gust of wind erupted from the center of the two, sweeping outward in all directions.

Son Gohan and the others cursed inwardly, instantly forced back by the sheer force of the gale.

"Not bad!"

Super 17 threw another punch, his fist glowing with light this time.

"Hmph!"

Lei Chen let out a cold snort, his own fist glowing as well, though his light was golden.

"Boom!"

Super 17 was sent flying instantly!

"Saiyan, nothing more than this!"

Watching Wu Fei retreat over a hundred meters, Super 17's eyes widened in shock. He felt as if he had struck solid steel, a sharp pain radiating from his hand.

"How is this possible?"

Super 17 could never have imagined that Lei Chen's strength would be so immense!

"Bang!"

Just then, Lei Chen had already launched another attack at Super 17.

"Ah!"

A look of agony crossed Super 17's face as his body was forced into a hunched, bow-like shape.

"Whoosh!"

Simultaneously, his body plummeted toward the ground.

"Rumble!"

Super 17 slammed into the earth, a cloud of dust billowing up as a giant mushroom cloud slowly rose into the air.

At the same time, Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta had emerged from the rubble.

"Damn it, that guy's power has increased again."

Seeing Lei Chen drive Super 17 into the ground with just a few punches, Vegeta remarked with a grim expression.

A golden light faded from his body as Vegeta returned to his base form. In his view, since Lei Chen had already stepped in, there was no need for him to maintain his Super Saiyan 3 transformation.

"Bang!"

Just then, debris began flying out from within the smoke.

A violent wind whipped up, and the ground began to tremble incessantly.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a massive explosion erupted from beneath the earth. A beam of black light shot upward, and Super 17 soared into the sky, glaring at Lei Chen with a dark expression.

"Ah!"

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Super 17 let out a roar, and in an instant, waves of energy surged, causing the ground to shake.

Black light shimmered around his body as a black aura erupted outward. No longer daring to be careless, Super 17 unleashed his full power.

Super 17's figure flickered, vanishing from his spot.

The next moment, he appeared behind Lei Chen.

Super 17's fist, glowing with black light, smashed toward Lei Chen.

But while his speed was fast, Lei Chen was faster. Before his fist could even land, Lei Chen's own fist had already struck him, glowing with golden light and crackling with streaks of lightning.

"Bang!"

Lei Chen's fist landed squarely in his gut.

"Ah!"

Under the force of Lei Chen's punch, Super 17 let out a cry of agony.

Although androids typically lack a sense of pain, it depended on the magnitude of the force; Lei Chen's power was completely superior to Super 17's.

A look of shock instantly surfaced on Super 17's cold face; he had not expected Lei Chen's strength to be this overwhelming!

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Super 17's fist erupted with golden light once more, slamming forward with ferocious force.

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

Super 17 felt a sharp, agonizing pain radiate from his fist; his entire arm was now tingling with numbness.

"Clack, clack, clack!"

Under the sheer magnitude of Lei Chen's power, Super 17's body was forced into a rapid retreat.

"This is impossible!"

Super 17 was deeply shaken, unable to believe that Lei Chen's strength could surpass his own.

Just as Super 17 began to sink into despair, Son Goku's voice drifted in from the distance.

"Wait a second, Lei Chen!"

"Let me handle Super 17. Since he came looking for me, let me be the one to deal with him!"

As the words fell, a child with spiky hair instantly appeared before Lei Chen.

"Fine. I shouldn't be interfering too much in this timeline anyway. I've already taught him a lesson, so I'll leave him to you," Lei Chen said nonchalantly.

In truth, Lei Chen was just spouting nonsense. There was no rule about not interfering in this timeline; he simply wanted Son Goku to be the one to finish off Super 17.

"Thanks!"

With that, Son Goku turned his gaze toward Super 17.

"Hey, 17!"

"Your opponent is me now!"

Son Goku shouted at Super 17.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter who comes!"

Though Super 17 said this, the look he cast toward Lei Chen was filled with wariness, even as his expression relaxed with a sigh of relief.

Hearing Lei Chen's words, Super 17 finally understood why Earth 17 had no information on him—Lei Chen was from another timeline, not from this world at all.

Hearing Super 17's reply, Son Goku didn't waste any more breath and transformed directly into a Super Saiyan 4.

"Ha!"

A terrifying aura erupted from Son Goku's body, a golden light shooting into the sky as golden arcs of electricity flickered incessantly around him. With a cold expression, Son Goku pushed his power to the limit.

Son Goku's 1.2-meter frame instantly surged to 1.82 meters. He sported long, black hair, dark rings around his eyes, and lacked a golden aura; his upper body was covered in red fur, and his body pulsed with a rhythmic red glow.

Son Goku's combat power was slightly higher than Vegeta's. When he first transformed into a Super Saiyan 4, his power level was 260 trillion, but now it had reached 280 trillion.

This was slightly stronger than Super 17, and considering Super 17 had already sustained some injuries—though he possessed infinite energy—the two were effectively evenly matched.

Son Goku already knew the extent of Super 17's strength, so he went all out from the start, skipping any preliminary probing.

In the next instant, Son Goku turned into a streak of golden light and flew toward Super 17.

"Clack, clack, clack!"

Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku launched a fierce assault. Their figures flickered constantly, fighting from the ground up into the sky.

A moment later, the two had crashed back down to the earth.

"Rumble!"

The ground shook violently, craters appearing everywhere as the earth split, countless fissures spreading into the distance.

"Rumble!"

The shockwaves generated by the collision between Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku and Super 17 shattered the ground beneath them.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku and Super 17 traded blows, locked in a stalemate.

But to Lei Chen, it seemed as though Son Goku was preparing some kind of technique; otherwise, it wouldn't be a stalemate—Son Goku would be suppressing Super 17, and in that case, Super 17 would surely be the one to lose.

Boom! Boom!

As time ticked by, Super Saiyan 4 Son Goku began to lose the upper hand.

"Haha, Son Goku, where did that arrogance of yours go?"

Super 17 laughed loudly. Although he hadn't been able to absorb Son Goku's energy, the fact that he was gaining the upper hand and suppressing Son Goku made his expression brighten considerably.

Son Goku said nothing, continuing his relentless assault on Super 17.
