Aaaaaah!!!!
Rumble! As Frieza powered up, the sky immediately darkened. Lightning flashed through the thick clouds, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
At that moment, Frieza's ki filled the area for miles. No, it filled the entire Earth!
That ki was astonishingly powerful!
"What..." Krillin and the others stared at the sight, stunned. They had never imagined Frieza's ki could surge to such a level!
"What kind of training did this guy go through while he was dead all these years?!" Piccolo was covered in cold sweat, unable to believe what he was seeing.
They had thought that after all these years, their power had grown enough to surpass the Frieza of the past. They hadn't expected Frieza to have grown so much stronger, too!
He really was a monstrous genius!!
Gohan watched Frieza, his expression unusually grave. Even if he transformed into Super Saiyan 2 again, he probably wouldn't be able to beat him!
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
They weren't the only ones shocked. Luya was just as stunned. Unlike the others, he could clearly sense just how much Frieza's ki had increased!
1,500,000,000,000... 1,600,000,000,000... 1,700,000,000,000...
Frieza's ki was rising at an abnormal rate, almost exponentially!
Luya felt awkward. Damn, at this rate, he was nowhere near a match for him!
What should he do? Run? He couldn't! If he ran, who would stop Frieza? Wouldn't that mean the end of Earth?
But if he stayed, he might be the one who died!
"System, can you issue the quest reward early?" Luya hurriedly asked.
System: "No. The host has not yet completed the quest to defeat Frieza. The system does not support issuing rewards in advance!"
Damn it!
Luya's face darkened. "Then what happens if I die?"
System: "If the host is killed, this system will leave the host and search for another host."
Luya: "..."
Damn! How heartless!
"Is there any way?" Luya's mouth twitched. Damn, this system seemed pretty unreliable!
System: "The host has two choices. First, use Kaioken to boost your power. The chance of victory is fifty percent. Second, use Great Ape Transformation. There is a fifty percent chance of triggering a hidden skill: transforming into Super Saiyan 4. The chance of victory is eighty percent!"
Hearing that, Luya was about to choose the second option, but the system spoke again. "Warning: If the host uses Great Ape Transformation, he may be unable to withstand the Saiyan's savage nature. The host will lose his reason and become a killing machine!"
Luya: "..."
"Heh heh heh! From that look on your face, have you already felt fear?" Frieza's sinister laughter suddenly rang out.
Luya looked over. Frieza had turned golden. Aside from his color, not much else had changed, but Luya knew that the transformation was far more than just a change in color!
Golden Frieza! According to the system's analysis, Golden Frieza's battle power had reached 15,000,000,000,000!
Holy crap! Fifteen trillion!
What did that even mean? He was undoubtedly more than fifty times stronger than Super Saiyan 2!
This was bad! Frieza seemed incredibly dangerous to Luya now!
Damn! With a battle power of fifteen trillion, he could probably kill Luya in an instant!
Luya's expression turned grim. Gohan and the others were even more stunned. Was this Frieza's true power? It was terrifying!
Under that immense ki, they felt unbearably oppressed. Even standing far away, they couldn't bring themselves to think of fighting him!
Fear had nearly stopped their cells from functioning!
"I call this form... Golden Frieza!" Frieza's face twisted into a wicked smile. "I don't know how you found out about my trump card, but since you did, you must have a trump card of your own to show me, right?"
Luya forced a smile as a bead of cold sweat slid down his cheek. "You really are incredibly strong. It seems you've surpassed Sun Wukong and the others!"
"Oh? What do you mean? Are you saying I can only surpass them after transforming into Golden Frieza?" Frieza's smile faded, and he spoke coolly.
Luya nodded. "That's right!"
"Heh heh heh! Is that so? Very well! I'll deal with you first, then go find Sun Wukong!" Frieza's face turned savage. He didn't attack Luya, though. Instead, he said, "My power is far greater than yours now, but I'll give you a chance. Agree to become my loyal subordinate and swear allegiance to me, and I'll spare your life!"
Luya smiled faintly. "You can forget about that. I may not lose!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luya powered up. Golden ki enveloped him, streaked with lightning!
Hah!!
Kaioken!!
Suddenly, Luya let out a roar, and a layer of red ki appeared around his body!
In an instant, Luya's power began rising rapidly!
"Kaioken?! He... he... he can use it too?" Krillin and the others stared at Luya, completely dumbfounded. They were starting to question reality!
Why could Luya use Kaioken, too?!
Instant Transmission... Kamehameha... Kaioken...
This Saiyan named Luya had actually mastered Goku's signature techniques!
"It seems we all underestimated him!" Piccolo's expression was grave, too. In his eyes, Luya's ki had already surpassed Goku's!
Of course, that was Goku before he went to see Beerus, the God of Destruction. Goku definitely wouldn't have been a match for Luya then!
All they could say was that Luya's talent and potential were terrifying. He had reached this level after just one trip into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber! They had entered the chamber themselves to fight Cell, but none of them had improved as much as Luya. Not even Gohan!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The air raged around them. Luya's ki continued to rise, and the red aura surrounding his golden one grew stronger by the second!
Onefold... twofold... threefold...
16,000,000,000,000... 17,000,000,000,000... 18,000,000,000,000...
Luya's ki surged higher and higher. His power seemed to be swelling like a balloon being filled with water, growing more and more enormous!
"I remember that technique! Sun Wukong used it on Planet Namek back then! I never thought you could use it, too!" Frieza stared at Luya, his expression growing more serious.
That technique was already a threat to him!
Hah!!!
Sevenfold Kaioken!!
With Luya's roar, the ground around them shattered. A tsunami charged forward, and columns of water shot into the sky! The sight was breathtaking!
