"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Vegeta was greeted by a savage beating from Rumsshi.
Rumsshi quickly beat Vegeta black and blue, leaving him seriously injured.
"Kid, how's that? This is the difference between you and me." Rumsshi wore a smug grin.
"Not bad, but your punches aren't hard enough." Vegeta shook his head.
"You... What did you say?" Rumsshi's eyes widened. "Kid, you seem pretty pleased with yourself. Looks like I'll have to hurt you today, or you won't understand how powerful I am as a God of Destruction."
"Hmph. It doesn't hurt." Vegeta snorted.
What was a little pain like this?
Vegeta had drunk so much Ultra Divine Water.
The agony Ultra Divine Water inflicted on his body was even worse than Rumsshi's punches.
So even though Vegeta was black and blue and seriously injured,
he didn't care in the slightest.
If I cry out in pain, then I'm no Vegeta.
If I can't even endure this little pain, how am I supposed to become the strongest warrior in the universe?
Besides, it's fine. Once I get stronger, I can just beat him up in return.
"Then let's continue." As Rumsshi spoke, he moved and swiftly appeared directly in front of Vegeta.
"Wait a second," Vegeta suddenly said.
Rumsshi paused for the moment.
Then Rumsshi saw Vegeta take out a little notebook and a pen.
"What are you doing?" Rumsshi asked, taken aback.
"I'm writing it down so I don't forget later." Vegeta opened the notebook and wrote down a number: 178!
Rumsshi scratched his head.
What was this kid up to?
What did 178 mean?
"All right, we can continue." Vegeta put the notebook back into his Storage Ring.
"Then let's continue." Rumsshi once again pounded Vegeta with punches and kicks.
Rumsshi beat Vegeta into a state of severe injury.
But that was no big deal.
Vegeta's body was like a prototype of an Immortal Body, with an automatic healing ability.
Though it couldn't restore his stamina,
Vegeta had gotten a whole jar of Senzu Beans from Korin.
There was no need for Vegeta to hold back. He took a Senzu Bean straight out of his Storage Ring and ate it.
"Rumble!"
An immensely powerful energy erupted from Vegeta once more.
Vegeta had been on the verge of death just moments ago.
As a result, once his stamina recovered this time, his battle power also surged wildly.
Vegeta gauged the strength of his own energy.
His battle power had now reached at least 20 million.
"What?" Rumsshi was startled.
What was going on with this kid?
How could he come back from the brink of death and seem like a completely different person?
"My, my... That miraculous bean can heal your injuries and restore your energy?" Kusu asked in surprise.
"They're called Senzu Beans. After you eat one, it immediately heals your injuries and restores your energy." Vegeta nodded. There was no need to hide it.
There was no need to keep things like this from an Angel.
"Not only has your stamina recovered, but your energy has also increased significantly. It's twice what it was before," Kusu said thoughtfully.
"That's right. My constitution is rather special. Every time I wake up from the brink of death, my battle power doubles." Vegeta smiled.
"So that's how it works." Kusu understood.
"Oh? Your constitution is indeed rather special, but there must be a limit, right?" Rumsshi snorted.
"Yes. I'll do my best to push my near-death recovery and doubling ability to its limit today." Vegeta nodded.
After saying this, Vegeta swiftly charged toward Rumsshi.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Vegeta sped up his attacks and pounded Rumsshi with punches and kicks.
Of course, Vegeta knew exactly how big the gap between him and Rumsshi was.
Forget a battle power of 20 million.
Even a battle power of 200 billion wouldn't make him a match for Rumsshi.
What Vegeta wanted was to be seriously injured and brought to the brink of death.
Then he could recover with a Senzu Bean and keep doubling his battle power.
Vegeta wanted to see just how many times his battle power could double.
Vegeta knew there was a limit to how many times his battle power could double after being brought to the brink of death.
Today, I'll find out where that limit is.
Three minutes later.
Rumsshi knocked Vegeta to the ground, seriously injuring him once again.
Vegeta had grown accustomed to these injuries.
Though he looked pretty awful,
Vegeta, who had drunk Ultra Divine Water, felt that these injuries were nothing.
They barely hurt at all.
Vegeta calmly took out a Senzu Bean and swallowed it.
At once, Vegeta felt the exhaustion drain from his body.
At the same time, he immediately checked the strength of his energy again.
40 million!
Not bad, not bad.
His battle power had reached 40 million.
Vegeta took out the little notebook and wrote down the number 386.
Then, full of energy, he charged at Rumsshi once more.
Rumsshi: "..."
Rumsshi felt like he was about to lose it.
I've been beating this kid for ages, and he hasn't even groaned once.
And the more I beat him, the more fired up he seems to get.
Not only that, his strength keeps increasing.
His strength has already increased fourfold today.
I want to see just how many times stronger you can get.
I refuse to believe there's no limit.
Even if you get a hundred times stronger, you still won't be a match for me.
Since you're asking for a beating, I'll give you one.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Rumsshi once again beat Vegeta until he was seriously injured.
Vegeta grunted and, just as before, took out a Senzu Bean to restore his stamina.
His battle power doubled.
This time, Vegeta's battle power increased by a little more than twice as much.
Vegeta's battle power reached 100 million.
Vegeta took a deep breath.
"Again!" Vegeta grinned.
"What? This time, the kid's strength increased by more than twofold!" Rumsshi's eyes widened.
"Whoosh!"
Vegeta was already hurtling toward him.
Rumsshi didn't hold back. He gave Vegeta another savage beating.
Vegeta was knocked to the ground once again and ate a Senzu Bean.
Vegeta quickly checked his battle power.
Battle power: 200 million!
Vegeta was thrilled.
"I refuse to believe you can get any stronger!" Rumsshi was determined not to give in.
Your energy has already increased tenfold.
Can you really keep getting stronger?
"Whoosh!"
Rumsshi moved and swiftly appeared behind Vegeta.
