"So fast, I can't even see their movements at all," Vegeta remarked, staring at the sky in astonishment. Aside from the spatial tremors caused by the collisions between Son Goten and Janembuu, their actions were completely invisible. Super Saiyan 4 and Super Saiyan 3 were simply not on the same level, even if Vegeta possessed the strength to temporarily go toe-to-toe with a Super Saiyan 3.

"Incredible, Goten!" Son Goku cheered happily while watching the battle unfold on the television screen that could broadcast the fight on Earth.

"So this is Super Saiyan 4! It's simply invincible!" The Grand King Kai couldn't help but exclaim as he watched Son Goten's combat. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes beneath his sunglasses; the power of this Super Saiyan 4 Son Goten was far beyond what Son Goku's Super Saiyan 3 could ever reach.

"Boom."

"Boom."

"Boom."

As the battle wore on, the power unleashed by the two grew increasingly intense, and the surrounding space showed signs of beginning to collapse.

Janembuu condensed a deep purple energy disc in each hand and swung them toward Son Goten.

"Holy crap!"

Son Goten was startled, his figure turning into a streak of light as he fled into the distance to dodge the energy discs pursuing him. This technique was stolen from Frieza, who had originally swiped it from Krillin. While it might be useless against Buu, it was a major problem for Son Goten; no matter how tough you are, taking a hit from a Destructo Disc would definitely be the end of you.

Glancing at the energy discs in hot pursuit, Son Goten felt anxious. Janembuu was clearly trying to drain his stamina, and once he was exhausted, it would be game over.

Son Goten steeled himself, focused his energy into his fists, and smashed the energy discs as if they were glass.

"???" Janembuu was also stunned. Damn, he can actually do that?

"Whoosh."

Golden flames erupted from Son Goten's body once more, and he transformed into a streak of light, darting toward Janembuu like an arrow released from a bowstring.

"Bang."

Son Goten slammed a fist into the stunned Janembuu's face and followed up with several more blows.

Damn, he doesn't play by the rules, Janembuu thought as he regained his composure and engaged in a fierce exchange with Son Goten once again.

"Boom."

"Boom."

"Boom."

This time, the two were truly enraged, throwing caution to the wind and slamming almost every punch directly into each other's faces.

"Crack, crack."

With both of them unleashing their full power, the resulting shockwaves rippled outward, shattering the very fabric of space.

"Bang."

"Zing."

"Zing."

After shaking Son Goten off, Janembuu curled his fingers and pointed them at him. A wicked smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth, and a red energy beam shot from his fingertips toward Son Goten.

"Crap."

Son Goten's expression changed in alarm, and he swayed his body to dodge the incoming energy beam.

This technique also originated from Frieza; it was unassuming, but it was incredibly fast and possessed high penetration, making it impossible to guard against. Back in the day, Vegeta had died under this very move.

"Whoosh."

"Boom."

Son Goten appeared in front of Janembuu as if teleporting and sent him flying with a single punch.

"Pah." Janembuu spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes fixed on Son Goten with venomous intent. Then, a wicked smile curled his lips, and he performed a gesture that everyone was all too familiar with.

Janembuu exhaled softly, bringing his hands together in a cupped shape at his waist.

"Ka..."

"Me..."

Janembuu's wicked, dual-layered voice suddenly echoed across the heavens, causing everyone's expressions to change.

"Kamehameha? Why does he know the Kamehameha..." Son Gohan stared in astonishment at the gesture Janembuu was making, a move he knew all too well.

"It seems he learned it after absorbing Cell," Vegeta said calmly, though what he was thinking inside, no one could say...

"Ten-fold..."

"Ka..."

"Me..."

"Nani!" xN.

Everyone was left in a state of bewilderment.

"Ha..." x2.

"Me..." x2.

"Ha!" x2.

As they shouted the final syllable together, two energy spheres condensed in their hands. Janembuu's Kamehameha was dark blue, while Son Goten's was crimson. Even before they were fired, the terrifying energy made the surrounding air grow restless.

The world between the two was split into two colors: Janembuu's dark blue on one side, and Son Goten's vivid red on the other.

"Gulp," someone swallowed hard, though it was unclear who.

"Hah!"

Both of them thrust the energy gathered in their hands forward simultaneously. The terrifying power collided between them, forming a sphere that was half dark blue and half crimson. The two forces locked into a tug-of-war, neither willing to yield to the other.

"Yaaah!"

Son Goten frantically squeezed out the last of his remaining energy, pushing the energy sphere inch by inch toward Janembuu.

!!

Janembuu increased his own energy output at the same time, but it was to no avail; the sphere was still being pushed back bit by bit.

"Crackle, crackle."

The surrounding space began to collapse more and more violently due to the collision of these two supreme energies. The power even began to affect the world's barrier, yet the two remained oblivious, continuing to pour more energy into the clash.

"Aaaah!!"

The energy struck Janembuu, and under the crushing weight of the dual force, he was slowly obliterated. Son Goten shouted, "Remember this, Janembuu: never try to out-beam a Saiyan named Son."

In the end, Janembuu was swallowed by the energy and completely annihilated!

"Crack, crack, crack."

"Aaaah."

Unable to withstand the pressure of this power, the world's barrier shattered. Even more tragically, the fracture occurred right beside Son Goten, and so, in a stroke of terrible luck, he was sucked into the collapsing space.

"Goten!"

The others cried out in alarm, desperate to warn him, but Son Goten, already drained of all his strength, was pulled in and vanished from the world...
