Bang!
Rumsshi slammed a heavy palm into Vegeta's back.
"Pfft..."
Vegeta spat blood and collapsed to the ground, gravely injured.
But it wasn't long before Vegeta pulled a Senzu Bean from his Storage Ring and ate it.
His stamina instantly returned.
"Ha!"
Energy erupted from Vegeta.
"Can it still keep increasing?" Rumsshi immediately sensed the intensity of Vegeta's energy.
After sensing it, Rumsshi relaxed a little.
"Finally, it's stopped increasing. This time, he must have reached his limit." Rumsshi smiled faintly.
Vegeta silently sensed his own energy.
Sure enough, after his battle power reached two hundred million, it stopped increasing.
Using the near-death recovery method had finally brought Vegeta's battle power to a standstill.
But Vegeta wasn't discouraged.
"Let's take a break. I'll get us something to drink." As he spoke, Vegeta quickly mixed up two cups of milk tea for Rumsshi and Kusu, then casually tossed them over.
Next, Vegeta calmly took out the little notebook.
Then he took a pen and wrote the number 1088 in it.
"Kid, what does that number mean?" Rumsshi came over and asked.
"It's nothing. Don't worry about the details. You'll understand someday." After saying that, Vegeta put the notebook away.
Kusu looked silently at Vegeta.
That number seemed to be...
I think I know what this is...
This guy... He really holds a grudge.
After putting the notebook and pen away, Vegeta immediately took out the bottle of Ultra Divine Water.
This time, he put the bottle to his lips and drank about a pound of the newly generated Ultra Divine Water in one gulp.
"I'm going to take a nap." With that, Vegeta went off to sleep nearby.
Vegeta slept for a little over four hours.
"Lord Rumsshi... Have you noticed?" Kusu said pensively.
"Noticed what?" Rumsshi asked.
"Mr. Vegeta's energy seems to have increased again," Kusu said.
"What? Increased again? You've got to be kidding!" Rumsshi's eyes widened as he immediately looked at Vegeta.
Sure enough, the energy around Vegeta was increasing wildly.
"W-What... What's going on? Hadn't he already reached his limit?" Rumsshi was stunned.
Rumble!
An even more powerful surge of energy suddenly burst from Vegeta.
Vegeta rose into the air and opened his eyes, his body shining with white light.
Vegeta silently sensed the intensity of his energy.
Battle power: 500 million!
This method really works.
After reaching my limit, I drank a pound of Ultra Divine Water, and I actually broke through it.
This is amazing.
"Again!" Vegeta grinned and turned toward Rumsshi.
Rumsshi: "..."
Rumsshi didn't want to say a word.
Whoosh!
Vegeta shot toward Rumsshi.
Rumsshi had almost lost the will to fight.
This guy's energy was increasing far too quickly.
Bang!
Just as Rumsshi's attention wandered for a moment, Vegeta kicked him in the face.
It didn't do much damage, but it was deeply humiliating.
Rumsshi's expression changed again and again, rage appearing on his face.
"Kid! You're really pushing your luck!" Rumsshi roared, slapping Vegeta hard enough to send him crashing into the ground.
Vegeta was gravely injured again.
Then, without any rush, Vegeta took out a Senzu Bean and ate it.
Rumble!
Vegeta's energy surged again.
Vegeta silently sensed his battle power.
Battle power: 1 billion!
"W-What..." Rumsshi was utterly stunned.
Hadn't he already reached his limit?
How could his energy increase after he recovered from being near death?
What the heck was going on?
"Keep going, keep going." Vegeta grinned, showing a set of pearly white teeth. "Today, I'm going to grind my battle power up to 10 billion."
Rumsshi: "..."
"Ahem... You call all this energy battle power? How much battle power does this level of energy amount to?" Rumsshi asked.
"About one billion right now," Vegeta replied.
"So you can still increase it tenfold?" Rumsshi asked pensively.
"I don't know if it'll work, but we can give it a try. I don't think it'll be a problem," Vegeta said.
"Let's take a break first." Rumsshi felt conflicted.
The main thing was that this kid's strength was increasing too quickly.
It had only been one day.
Going by this kid's way of calculating battle power...
His battle power must have been five million when he first got here.
Now it had already reached ten billion.
How many times had it multiplied?
The problem was, he'd only been training for two days.
If he kept developing like this...
I think he'll surpass me someday.
"Is Lord Rumsshi getting scared?" Kusu said with a smile, stepping closer to whisper in his ear.
"Hmph, do you think I'm scared?" Rumsshi snorted. "I'm the strongest God of Destruction in this universe. Using his way of calculating battle power, my power couldn't even be expressed as a number!"
"That's true," Kusu said pensively. "But at Vegeta's current rate of growth, if he can keep it up, I think he'll reach Lord Rumsshi's level in no more than ten years."
"Y-You said what? Ten years?" Rumsshi felt as if the world had turned upside down.
He'd be able to match me in ten years?
"Of course, that's only my estimate. It also assumes that Vegeta can keep doubling his energy through this method," Kusu said.
"Do you think he can double it again?" Rumsshi asked, somewhat worried.
If he could match me after training for ten years...
I absolutely won't teach him anymore.
Damn it...
I'm raising a terrifying opponent.
"I estimate his battle power will max out at around one trillion. That should be his limit," Kusu analyzed.
"One trillion... Hmph, that's acceptable." Rumsshi let out a sigh of relief.
"What are you two talking about?" Vegeta asked with a smile. "Do you think my battle power is growing too quickly? That it's beyond your expectations?"
"Hmph, don't get cocky!" Rumsshi snorted. "So what if your battle power reaches one trillion?"
"One trillion?" Vegeta pondered. "That's still nowhere near enough."
"Good, you know it." Rumsshi wore a smug look. "If I told you my battle power, I'm afraid it would scare you to death."
