Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
At this moment, Luya's figure was completely enveloped by golden and crimson auras, his cold expression resembling that of a god of war!
His muscle definition was sharp, slightly more swollen than before, and brimming with explosive power!
In truth, Luya was deeply anxious, for transforming into a Super Saiyan 2 and then stacking the Kaioken was unprecedented; even Sun Wukong could only utilize it while in his Super Saiyan Blue form!
He had been practicing this Kaioken while inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, and he had persisted in maintaining the Kaioken state while in his Super Saiyan form. Even with his top-tier Saiyan talent, it had taken him half a year to reach this current seven-fold Kaioken!
Otherwise, given his potential, his strength could have been far greater than this!
Boom, boom, boom!
[Ding! Host has successfully utilized Kaioken, side-effect calculation initiated! Side-effect +1...]
The system's voice rang out in his mind, causing Luya to freeze in confusion: "System, what do you mean by this?"
System: "The Kaioken obtained by the Host does not possess inherent side effects like Sun Wukong's from the start. Instead, it begins with zero side effects, and they only accumulate as the Host utilizes it!"
Upon hearing this, Luya was stunned, then immediately ecstatic: "Does that mean I can maintain this form indefinitely?"
System: "Theoretically, yes. Although the Kaioken has no side effects, the amount of Ki it consumes is immense. In the Host's current state, you can maintain it for ten minutes at most!"
Ten minutes!
Luya's eyes narrowed. That might just be enough!
Because his combat power while wielding the seven-fold Kaioken had already reached 11.375 trillion!
That's right! It had surged from over one trillion to over 11.3 trillion!
Swish!
Suddenly, a golden figure appeared before Luya. Before he could react, he felt a stinging sensation on his face. The next instant, he let out a miserable cry as his body was sent flying backward, crashing into the seawater!
The one who had struck was Frieza. He hovered in the void, looking down at the water with a mocking laugh: "It seems you thought I was weak? To dare lose focus during a battle?"
Boom!
No sooner had he spoken than a pillar of water erupted into the sky. Immediately following, Luya's figure soared upward. His aura remained undiminished as he looked at Frieza and smiled: "Come on!"
Frieza's expression turned savage, and his body vanished like a cannonball!
Luya disappeared in an instant, and the next moment, the void erupted with the thunderous clash of their energies! It was incredibly intense!
"These two are evenly matched!" Krillin watched the spectacle, sighing.
"No! On the surface, Frieza holds the absolute upper hand!" Piccolo's eyes narrowed slightly, never once looking away from the fight.
Ugh!
Luya and Frieza engaged in high-speed combat, trading punches and kicks. However, their accuracy was low, as most strikes were blocked by the opponent. Of course, during this exchange, Luya had also taken a punch and a kick from Frieza!
All in all, Frieza was indeed holding the advantage!
Hah!
Luya suddenly flashed behind Frieza, thrusting his hands out to unleash a blast of Ki that struck him and sent him reeling backward!
Luya gritted his teeth and charged, but the next moment, the retreating Frieza vanished. He suddenly reappeared right in front of Luya, his speed so great that even Luya only caught a glimpse of an afterimage!
"Thud!"
"Ugh!!"
The brute—Frieza threw a punch that slammed heavily into Luya's stomach. The latter spat out foam, his body curling like a shrimp as he was sent flying backward!
Frieza gave Luya no chance. Moving even faster, he reached Luya in a supersonic blur and brought his clasped hands down in a crushing blow!
Ugh!!
With a pained cry, Luya plummeted!
Frieza looked down at the falling Luya with a savage grin, then extended his index finger to fire laser beams at him!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang...
A dozen crimson laser blasts detonated, filling the air with smoke!
Just then, a figure emerged from the smoke—it was Luya. He bore several wounds, though none were fatal, and he eventually landed on a rock formation.
Frieza looked at Luya and laughed: "Ho ho ho! Is this the extent of your power? It seems you are still no match for me!"
Luya wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then curled his lips into a smirk: "You bastard, you are indeed strong, but how could I possibly lose to you?!"
"Oh? Do you have another trick up your sleeve? By all means, show me!!" Frieza spread his arms, flicked his tail, and said mockingly.
Luya gritted his teeth and instantly flared his aura, pushing it to its absolute limit. He was still in the Kaioken state, but he was beginning to feel the strain.
Under normal circumstances, he could maintain this for ten minutes, but now, the Ki required to counter Frieza was also draining him. At this rate, his time was running out!
He had to end this quickly!!!
Thinking of this, Luya pushed his Ki to the absolute peak!
At the same time, he brought his hands together at his waist...
"Ka... me... ha... me..."
Seeing this familiar scene, Gohan and the others were jolted awake. Krillin wanted to cry out, but Gohan quickly covered his mouth!
"Don't interfere with them!" Gohan said in a stern tone.
Krillin nodded hurriedly, and once Gohan let him go, he said with some excitement: "Is this guy trying to use the same move Goku used against Cell to deal with Frieza?"
Gohan watched Luya in the arena and prayed silently: "I hope it works!"
Meanwhile, Luya was still frantically gathering his energy. He pushed his ki to its peak, and then, the energy gathering in his hands surged violently before being compressed by him!
Frieza also sensed that something was wrong. He looked at Luya with some confusion: "Hey! You guy, you haven't gone mad, have you? Gathering power like this to launch a ki blast will destroy the entire Earth!"
Luya smiled slightly: "What? Are you afraid?"
Frieza was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Kid, not to mention whether your attack can actually harm me, just based on your speed, you won't be able to hit me! So, you'd better be careful and save your energy; that way, you might still have a chance for a desperate struggle!"
Luya smiled slightly without saying a word, and the next moment, his aura suddenly surged!
Frieza watched this scene with a sinking feeling, but he didn't believe his opponent could hit him! Or was the other party just stalling for time?
Thinking of this, a murderous glint appeared in Frieza's eyes. He then opened his palm toward Luya, and red energy gathered upon it!
"Die!!"
The next moment, Frieza erupted with a burst of ki, firing it directly toward Luya!
Luya's eyes widened, and the next moment, he roared furiously: "...HAMEHA!!!"
Swish!
In the next instant, Luya's figure suddenly vanished, leaving only an afterimage as the energy blast tore through it!
By now, Luya had already arrived behind Frieza!
"Wh... what?!" Frieza was startled and tried to dodge, but it was already too late!
HA!!!
Luya thrust his hands forward, and in an instant, a massive energy wave completely engulfed Frieza!
"Ahhhhhhh!!..."
Frieza let out a miserable scream before being swallowed by the torrent of the energy wave!!
