Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of fists and feet colliding echoed through the sky like rolling thunder.

With the massive Tree of Might as their backdrop, Lin Chen and Turles engaged in a lightning-fast clash.

The two were ten thousand meters apart one moment and colliding the next, traversing the sky and earth in mere seconds.

Because their movements were too swift, almost no one on the scene could track them; they could only hear the constant, explosive cracking overhead.

Among the onlookers, only Broly could keep up with their speed.

"Is... is this the power of His Majesty Lynx?"

"Too strong! His Majesty is even stronger than he was five years ago!"

The watching Saiyans stood with their mouths agape, faces filled with awe.

As for the traitors and the members of the Turles Force, they began to retreat toward the Tree of Might in silence, trembling with fear.

"Quick, quick, quick! Take this chance and go!" Nappa urged the crowd amidst the fleeing group.

"Lord Nappa, are we really going to run?"

"You idiots! Is a battle of that level something we can compete in? Get back to the spaceship immediately!"

In Nappa's mind, judging by the situation, Lynx—who had returned after five years of disappearance—was clearly stronger than Turles. If they didn't flee now, were they supposed to wait until Turles was truly defeated?

As for begging for Lynx's forgiveness? Don't forget, Lynx was a Saiyan!

Saiyans never showed mercy to traitors!

Meanwhile, high above in the sky.

Turles had exhausted every ounce of his strength, only to find that the more he fought, the more stifled he felt.

He could sense that Lin Chen opposite him wasn't even using his full power, yet even so, he was still being toyed with.

"Why? Why?! Lynx, show me your true ability!"

Lin Chen paused, a cold smile playing on his lips: "Fine."

He had played enough. With a combat power of 300,000, Turles was indeed more durable than the space pirates he had faced before.

The next moment, a massive force slammed into Turles's face.

Time seemed to stop; Turles clearly felt his features distort and his teeth being knocked out.

Then, time resumed its normal flow, and Turles flew out like a cannonball, carving a streak of light through the air before crashing into the trunk of the Tree of Might, leaving a massive crater.

"Lynx!"

Turles struggled to crawl out of the trunk, screaming madly.

"I am Turles! The future emperor of the universe! How could I lose to you!"

The next moment, Turles suddenly flew toward the canopy.

Above him was the crown of the Tree of Might, where individual Fruit of the Tree of Might hung from the branches.

Though these fruits were still somewhat green in color, clearly not yet fully ripe, even unripe fruits possessed the effect of increasing combat power.

Turles couldn't wait for them to ripen; he needed to boost his strength immediately to kill Lynx!

Seeing the Fruit of the Tree of Might within reach, Turles could already see victory beckoning, envisioning himself strengthened and trampling Lynx beneath his feet in agony.

Seeing the direction Turles was flying, Lynx sneered: "Perfect. Since a whole bunch of you are on the tree, let you and the Tree of Might disappear together..."

As a divine tree, the Tree of Might could not be destroyed by ordinary attacks. In the original story, Son Goku had relied on a Spirit Bomb fueled by the energy of the Tree of Might to destroy the towering giant.

Although Lin Chen didn't know the Spirit Bomb, he possessed a technique even stronger.

"Hah!"

As Lin Chen roared, a golden aura began to rise around his body.

This aura exerted an inexplicable pressure on every Saiyan present.

"This... this is..." King Vegeta watched the golden radiance emanating from Lin Chen, an ancient legend passed down among the Saiyan royal family subconsciously surfacing in his mind.

High on the tree, Turles, who had just plucked the deepest-colored fruit and was about to devour it, also felt the unusual aura from below.

It was a fear of the legend, branded into the genes of every Saiyan.

"Ly-Lynx? Could he... impossible!"

Turles gritted his teeth and bit into the fruit.

The moment he swallowed it, he felt an astonishing change in his body. The injuries inflicted by Lin Chen's violent assault healed instantly, and his lost power not only recovered but surged several times over.

Turles opened his communicator: "This is Turles! Tell me, what is my current combat power?"

"Lo-Lord! Your combat power has already exceeded 600,000!"

"600,000? Hahahaha!"

Turles burst into wild laughter.

The soil of Planet Vegeta was indeed perfect for planting the Tree of Might! Even the unripe fruit could boost his power by so much; if he waited for all of them to fully mature, his strength would surely reach even greater heights. Never mind Lynx—even the Frost Demon race, who dominated the universe, would be no match for him!

However, Turles hadn't even finished gloating for a few seconds when a desperate cry from his subordinate came through the communicator.

"Lord Turles! There... there is another powerful combat power near you! This energy, it seems to be that Saiyan's!"

"Lynx? What is his combat power at?"

"800,000, 900,000, 1,000,000... Oh no, it's exceeding the limit...!"

Just then, a violent explosion suddenly erupted near Turles. He turned his head and saw a plume of smoke rising abruptly, coming from the exact location where his mothership was docked.

"Run! Run for your lives!"

Inside Turles's mothership, the explosion triggered by the large-scale scouter receiving energy beyond its limit caused a chain reaction throughout the vessel.

Survivors screamed as they fled the ship, rushing toward their only pillar of support: Turles.

But at that moment, everyone noticed a flash of light beneath the Tree of Might.

Lin Chen, who had fully transformed into a Pseudo Super Saiyan, stared with his purple-black hair as he raised one hand toward the Tree of Might.

Lin Chen didn't use any special technique; he simply condensed his ki into a green sphere of light and pushed it toward the tree.

This green sphere was only the size of a basketball and didn't travel very fast, yet shortly after it burrowed into the Tree of Might, a pillar of light shot up from the base of the trunk.

The pillar of light tore through the trunk, surged straight to the top, and finally engulfed Turles and the traitorous Saiyans along with it.

"I won't accept this! I am the true King of the Saiyans!"

Turles's final, desperate scream echoed from within the pillar of light.

Amidst a low, rumbling roar, the ground shook violently. A world-destroying aura burst outward, accompanied by a blinding white light that shrouded more than half of Planet Vegeta, centered on the Tree of Might.

Under the terrifying pressure, the Saiyans on the planet fell to their knees one by one, succumbing to the terror in their hearts, believing their end had finally arrived.

However, a moment later, the branches of the Tree of Might, which had already covered most of Planet Vegeta, suddenly dissolved into golden specks of light.

These specks of light drifted across the entire planet like white snow.

The true nature of these specks was the planetary energy that the Tree of Might had absorbed!

As this planetary energy seeped back into the earth, the withered soil was revitalized as if nourished by rain, restoring vitality to all things across Planet Vegeta.

In that moment, the dying Planet Vegeta was finally reborn!
