Son Goku's Conjecture

"What immense power!"

Lei Chen felt that even against Vegito, the strongest single warrior formed by the fusion of Son Goku and Vegeta, he would dare to step forward and challenge him.

Of course, it would only be a challenge; he still couldn't defeat Vegito.

After all, Lei Chen's base power was far inferior to Vegito's, though it should be on par with a Super Saiyan 2 Vegito. If they were to fight, Lei Chen would likely be defeated—not for any other reason, but because his combat experience was far too lacking.

Suddenly, Lei Chen's face turned pale. The red light on his body flickered and shifted to gold, reverting him from the Super Saiyan God transformation into a Super Saiyan 2.

The stamina consumption of Super Saiyan God was simply too great. Lei Chen calculated that if he weren't fighting, he could maintain the state for ten minutes, but in actual combat, he would likely be forced back to Super Saiyan 2 within thirty or forty seconds.

The combat power of Super Saiyan God was 70 trillion.

"Such terrifying pressure, yet why can I not sense any ki?"

A green-skinned man looked on with a heavy expression toward the terrifying pressure emanating from the direction of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

This green-skinned man was none other than Piccolo.

It seems there is only one person in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber right now, that Saiyan named Lei Chen. What on earth is that guy doing in there?

Piccolo broke into a cold sweat, thinking to himself. Having fused with Kami, he naturally recognized this pressure as divine, yet for some reason, he could not sense any ki signature.

At Bulma's house.

"What on earth is happening? Is it an earthquake? But it doesn't quite feel like one."

Vegeta gazed up at the sky, his face filled with confusion. He couldn't sense any ki at all, so he had no idea that this disturbance was caused by Lei Chen.

Mount Paozu, Goku's house.

"What's going on? Is someone fighting, or is this an earthquake?"

Son Goku said with a curious expression, watching his house continue to tremble.

Could it be that Saiyan, Lei Chen, causing this?

The moment Son Goku thought of Lei Chen, he felt incredibly excited. Although Lei Chen's strength had been about the same as Son Gohan's when he first turned Super Saiyan 2, he knew that after coming out of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Lei Chen's strength would definitely have increased significantly. He didn't know by how much, but he was certain it would be much greater than before.

Son Goku was the most battle-hungry of them all; even if an opponent wasn't as strong as him, he loved to fight them. As long as they could trade a few blows with him, he would often run over to spar with them, even Krillin.

Perhaps others wouldn't immediately think of Lei Chen, but because Son Goku had been keeping him in mind, he jumped straight to that conclusion.

It had to be said that Son Goku had guessed correctly; this was indeed Lei Chen's doing.

Thinking of this, Son Goku could no longer stay at home. With a single Instant Transmission, he vanished and reappeared at the Lookout.

"So it really was Lei Chen's doing?"

Son Goku suddenly appeared behind Piccolo, his eyes fixed on the oppressive sensation radiating from the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, his face filled with excitement.

Although he couldn't sense exactly how much stronger Lei Chen had become, he could feel that this oppressive sensation was no weaker than his own Super Saiyan 3 transformation; in fact, it might even be slightly stronger.

Because he couldn't sense any ki, and because the pressure seemed to emanate from another world, Son Goku had no idea just how strong Lei Chen truly was.
