Hmm?

Someone is coming!

Four powerful energies are approaching the Lookout.

"It's Son Goku and the others."

Mr. Popo recognized Son Goku's familiar aura immediately.

Mo Yuan also used his Mind's Eye to see the man with the familiar crab-like hairstyle from his memories.

Beside him was a cute little boy, who must be Gohan.

As for Vegeta and Trunks, he had already met them, so there was no need to mention them.

Calculating the time, it was indeed time for them to come to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train.

A moment later, Son Goku and his group arrived on the Lookout.

Vegeta and Trunks were caught off guard when they saw Mo Yuan and the others.

Although the appearances of Lazuli and Lapis hadn't changed much after training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, they had grown significantly taller.

As for Mo Yuan, it went without saying; apart from the tail behind him and the two small horns on his head, what else was the same as before?

"You are the Androids! Why are you here?"

Trunks finally recognized them, his entire body tensing up, ready to transform into a Super Saiyan at any moment.

"I wondered who it was. Turns out it's two losers~ Right? Shorty!" Lapis looked at Vegeta and Trunks, mocking them.

Vegeta was incensed (╬◣д◢), "You damn puppet doll, who are you calling a shorty!!"

"Heh! You, of course. Don't tell me, don't tell me, surely no one is going to compare themselves to a child, right?"

Lapis continued to taunt Vegeta with biting sarcasm.

"Ah!!"

Vegeta could no longer hold back, his rage surging to the top of his head.

He had only one thought now: to kill all these damn puppet dolls!

Moreover, his strength had improved significantly during this period, and he had absolute confidence that he could defeat Lapis.

With a golden vortex of energy swirling around his body, Vegeta instantly transformed into a Super Saiyan.

After being defeated by Lapis last time and experiencing the attack from Cell, Vegeta's combat power had increased; his base combat power had now reached 15 million.

Furthermore, his Super Saiyan transformation had stabilized at a 55x multiplier.

His combat power had now reached a staggering 825 million.

If Lapis hadn't trained in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, he would likely have been in trouble today.

Unfortunately, there are no "ifs" in this world.

Vegeta's combat power truly shocked Son Goku and Trunks.

This terrifying aura was twice as strong as Trunks'.

If I had my father's strength, I could definitely have wiped out the Androids in the future, Trunks thought to himself.

I didn't expect Vegeta to become this powerful; I can't fall behind!

Vegeta's immense strength did not make Son Goku jealous; instead, it ignited his fighting spirit.

"Oh?" Vegeta's strength also surprised Lapis.

He hadn't expected him to become this much stronger in just a few short days.

One had to remember, Vegeta hadn't trained in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber like they had.

Is this the potential of a Super Saiyan that Mo Yuan spoke of?

Lapis suddenly felt fortunate that he had listened to Mo Yuan and trained in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Otherwise, he really would have been in trouble today.

"Hahahaha!!"

The powerful energy within his body made Vegeta's ego swell.

Vegeta confidently pointed a thumb at himself, "I am Super Vegeta!"

This classic scene almost made Mo Yuan burst out laughing.

Looking back at the entire Dragon Ball series, whenever Vegeta said this line, his moments of depression would inevitably follow.

Today would be no exception.

"What? Are you scared?"

Seeing that Lapis didn't move, Vegeta assumed he had been intimidated by his strength.

After all, he was super strong now.

He is the strongest Super Saiyan in history.

Vegeta stood with his arms crossed, a confident smirk playing on his lips.

His gaze was filled with the domineering arrogance of one who looks down upon the world.

Lapis watched calmly as Vegeta indulged in his own self-importance.

I wonder what pose I should use to beat him down later to make myself look even cooler, he thought.

"Come out and die."

Vegeta could no longer wait to exact his revenge.

"Since you're in such a hurry to die, I'll grant your wish."

Lapis flew into the air, coming face-to-face with Vegeta.

Lapis looked at Vegeta with contempt, extending his index finger to beckon him forward with a slight flick.

"Make your move."

Lapis's dismissive attitude made Vegeta extremely displeased.

"You're courting death!"

"Haa!!"

With a furious roar, Vegeta's aura surged to its peak.

His body flickered, and he vanished from his spot using high-speed movement, reappearing instantly beside Lapis.

Vegeta unleashed a whip kick, striking toward Lapis with the force of ten thousand tons.

Lapis quickly pressed both hands against Vegeta's leg, using the momentum to propel himself backward.

It wasn't that he couldn't handle Vegeta's strength; he simply wanted to relocate the battlefield.

After all, they had a pretty good relationship with Mr. Popo, and it wouldn't be good if they accidentally blew up the Lookout while fighting here.

Seeing Lapis sent flying by his strike, Vegeta's eyes were filled with deep disdain.

Is that it?

Vegeta flared his aura again, catching up to Lapis and appearing behind him.

He grabbed Lapis's shoulders with both hands and drove his knee hard toward his spine.

"Hahaha!"

Vegeta couldn't help but laugh, already envisioning the image of Lapis's spine snapping under his blow.

Just as Vegeta's knee was about to connect, Lapis suddenly flipped, breaking free from Vegeta's grip and appearing behind him.

Lapis's left hand transformed into a chain, locking around Vegeta's neck.

His right hand hammered several heavy blows into Vegeta's kidneys.

"Argh!!!"

The pain from such a heavy strike to the kidneys was more than even Vegeta could endure.

Lapis suddenly released him.

Vegeta clutched his side, his aura dimming significantly.

"How is it possible for your strength to be this great?"

Vegeta's eyes were wide with disbelief.

When he was locked in that chokehold, the power radiating from Lapis had completely surpassed his own, which was why he couldn't break free.

"Heh! Did you really think I was using my full strength when I dealt with you before?"

Lapis secretly enjoyed the chance to show off.

"Impossible!! I am the strongest person in this world!"

"Argh!!"

Vegeta's aura swelled, sweeping away his previous state of exhaustion.

Anger made him forget the pain in his body, and he returned to his peak once more.

Vegeta raised both hands, gathering the energy within his body into his palms.

Energy blasts rained down like a meteor shower, hurtling toward Lapis with terrifying pressure.

A classic display of Prince Tactics was presented once again.

Mo Yuan, who had been watching the battle from the Lookout using his Mind's Eye, could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

"What's so funny?"

Lazuli asked curiously.

Mo Yuan took Lazuli's hand and shared the image of Vegeta and Lapis's battle with her.

"Look, this move of Vegeta's is called 'Prince Tactics.' Every time he uses this move, he's not far from getting a beating."

Mo Yuan began explaining the profound essence of Vegeta's technique to Lazuli.

As expected, after the full set of Prince Tactics was unleashed, Lapis remained completely unscathed.

Then came the part where Vegeta was beaten to a pulp once again.

Lazuli finally couldn't help but join Mo Yuan in laughter.

A few minutes later, Lapis returned, dragging Vegeta by his hair.
