A man standing one meter eighty-five tall, wearing blue jeans and a white tank top, stepped out from a three-meter-tall cyan gate.
The man walked up to Son Goku and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Kakarot!"
"Haha, it may have been two years for you, but only a year has passed for me."
Son Goku replied to Lei Chen with a smile.
Lei Chen nodded and spoke directly, "Kakarot, I don't think you came here just to tell me that, right?"
"That's right. I believe you're also looking for someone to test just how strong you've become!"
Hearing Lei Chen's words, Son Goku's expression shifted; he looked at Lei Chen with a serious gaze, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
"Good!"
Lei Chen nodded. He, too, wanted to find someone to gauge his current combat power.
A brilliant golden radiance erupted from Lei Chen's body. Lightning crackled like dragons, and his aura surged in wave after wave. Surrounded by golden bolts of electricity, even the sky changed color as lightning flashed above.
Lei Chen's golden hair stood up even more sharply and grew thicker. Arcs of electricity flickered incessantly around him, his expression was cold and taut, and his aura reached a stable state.
Super Saiyan 2, Lei Chen's combat power: 100 billion.
"Going straight to Super Saiyan 2 right from the start?"
Although Son Goku said this, he dared not be careless; without transforming himself, he could not defeat Lei Chen.
After the transformation, the feeling Lei Chen gave Son Goku was, contrary to his expectations, quite normal. If the previous Lei Chen had felt unfathomable to Son Goku, the current Lei Chen felt surprisingly grounded.
Because Son Goku could not sense any aura from Lei Chen at all, Lei Chen instead made Son Goku feel wary.
What kind of opponent is the most terrifying? Naturally, the one whose strength—whether high or low—you cannot fathom.
A golden light radiated from Son Goku's body. His hair turned golden and stood on end, arcs of electricity flickered around him, and his expression became cold and taut. His power surged to 220 billion, twice that of Lei Chen.
At that moment, Lei Chen made his move.
Lei Chen threw a punch at Son Goku, a massive golden beam of light surging toward him.
Son Goku was slightly taken aback, not for any other reason, but because Lei Chen's speed exceeded his imagination; it was barely inferior to his own.
However, Son Goku recovered quickly. After all, he had experienced countless battles, especially in the Other World; what kind of opponent hadn't he seen?
Bang!
The moment before Lei Chen's fist could strike, Son Goku ducked, dodging the punch, and countered by lunging forward with a punch of his own.
Boom!
In the end, Son Goku's fist collided with Lei Chen's.
A loud roar echoed through the sky as invisible waves of pressure rippled outward from the two of them, accompanied by an exploding burst of golden light.
The entire Earth trembled.
Son Goku and Lei Chen retreated simultaneously, but Lei Chen was pushed back further than Son Goku; in terms of raw power, Lei Chen was clearly inferior.
Retreating three or four hundred meters into the sky, Lei Chen quickly cupped his hands together at his waist, gathering a golden sphere of energy in his palms, his gaze locked onto Son Goku.
"Is that the Kamehameha?"
Seeing the gesture, Son Goku immediately recognized that Lei Chen was using the Kamehameha.
Son Goku looked at Lei Chen with a serious expression. Lei Chen's power was not weak, so he dared not underestimate him in the slightest.
(Dragon Ball Super's Super Saiyan God begins) On Earth, Lei Ge says to Son Goku, "Kakarot, let's see if your Super Saiyan Blue is stronger, or my Super Saiyan 4!" Lei Ge let out a roar, his entire body covered in a layer of red fur, and his hair changed once again.
