Potential Unleashed

Faced with Wang Shen's fierce assault.

King Sadala stood his ground and parried Wang Shen's attacks with nothing more than a few punches. He blocked them all with effortless ease.

"So Saiyans can transform into this, too..."

King Sadala smiled faintly, about to say something.

But then he suddenly felt another tremendous force bearing down on him. Caught off guard, he was sent flying.

Wang Shen quickly gathered a massive energy sphere in his hands and took the chance to follow up with another attack.

Saiyan Energy Blast!

"King Sadala, remember: even a lion must use its full strength to catch a rabbit!"

"This fight is a rare and formidable challenge for me. I'll give it everything I've got and defeat you!"

Wang Shen's expression was resolute as he made his bold declaration with complete seriousness.

Wang Shen's energy surged again. Just as he was about to move, a voice full of authority suddenly rang out behind him, making him suck in a sharp breath.

King Sadala laughed and said:

"Then I'm looking forward to it, Karotis. Show me your full strength, Saiyan of Universe 7."

Flames of energy blazed around King Sadala's fist as he punched Wang Shen in the lower back.

Wang Shen cried out in pain and shot away like a cannonball, crashing through several mountain ranges before being buried beneath the collapsing rocks.

In an instant.

Golden light blazed, bursting out from beneath the mountain of rubble.

Wang Shen powered up, reducing all the rocks to dust, then clutched his lower back with a pained expression.

His clothes there had been burned away, leaving a black fist-shaped mark. He grumbled,

"I used to be the one who sent people crashing into mountains. What goes around comes around—now it's finally my turn."

"King Sadala sure doesn't pull his punches."

Suddenly, Wang Shen sensed a powerful wave of danger closing in.

He looked up and saw King Sadala high in the sky, one hand extended toward him, hovering above him.

A blazing ball of energy had already gathered in his palm. Its immense power churned like the sun, ready to be unleashed.

Wang Shen's heart jolted. He hurriedly pressed two fingers to his forehead and vanished just as the attack came down.

He'd spent many years living in the God of Destruction Realm, surrounded by God Ki every day.

And he'd also learned the Mind Sense Technique.

He could at least sense God Ki to some degree.

Whoosh!

The next second, Wang Shen appeared behind King Sadala. Before King Sadala could recover from his attack, Wang Shen kicked him hard, electricity crackling around his leg.

King Sadala was struck in the neck and sent flying.

Wang Shen pressed the attack.

He used Instant Transmission to catch up again, raining a relentless flurry of attacks on King Sadala.

Every punch and kick was wrapped in an aura, with lightning bursting around them. The sheer force was terrifying.

Even Majin Buu would have been reduced to a mangled, charred heap under these attacks, torn apart and unable to regenerate.

Heavy impacts echoed across the land. Invisible shock waves spread, and cracks appeared in mountain ranges as they crumbled apart.

Wang Shen seized every opportunity to attack with all his might.

"That's enough!"

King Sadala roared, and a fierce blaze suddenly erupted around him.

The scorching heat and tremendous force drove Wang Shen back.

Even so, stray sparks of lightning still flickered around King Sadala. The places struck by them were gradually growing numb.

King Sadala's body shuddered. A wave of fiery light swept over him, dispelling all the lightning.

He looked at Wang Shen with approval. The flames around Wang Shen had also been extinguished.

"Excellent combat instincts. Your relentless, heavy attacks have managed to injure me a little."

"Now you're going to take a lot more damage!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Shen charged again, his aura blazing and lightning crackling around him.

At a disadvantage, he had no choice but to take the initiative. Otherwise, he'd be in serious danger.

"This time, I won't let you have your way."

King Sadala shot forward, flames roaring around him.

Boom!

Their fists collided, unleashing a fierce gale in every direction.

Lightning and flames surged outward together, flattening everything around them.

Wang Shen cried out in pain and was sent flying.

A tearing agony shot through his arm, as though his flesh were burning and the bone had snapped.

His right arm hung limply at his side.

One strike was all it took. Wang Shen had been thoroughly defeated.

Wang Shen gritted his teeth. In an instant, he pulled a Senzu Bean from his pocket dimension and swallowed it.

As his muscles twitched, Wang Shen's body was completely restored.

King Sadala stared, baffled.

"What was that?"

Wang Shen steadied himself. As King Sadala charged toward him, he gathered energy in both hands.

He retreated while firing one energy blast after another at King Sadala.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Shen had fired over a thousand energy spheres.

King Sadala had already smashed some of them, while others still surrounded him.

Wang Shen brought his index and middle fingers together and quietly said:

"Explode!"

Boom!

Hundreds of energy spheres detonated at once.

Terrifying energy engulfed King Sadala, the immense shock waves raging around him.

Wang Shen didn't pause for a moment. He brought his hands together again, gathering enough energy to destroy the heavens and the earth.

"Full Power Destruction Beam!"

A thick beam of energy roared forth, as if breaking through the boundaries of space.

Suddenly, a blazing red beam shot out from the haze of the explosion.

Its impact parted the haze, revealing King Sadala.

He was completely unharmed!

Seeing this, Wang Shen poured even more energy into his attack, and the Full Power Destruction Beam grew even thicker.

The two devastating beams collided, locked in a fierce struggle.

"Ha!"

King Sadala roared. The blazing red beam surged in power, roaring like a fire dragon.

The Full Power Destruction Beam was pushed straight back!

Wang Shen's heart lurched. This is bad!

But he'd already poured all his energy into the attack.

The blazing red beam closed in fast. For the first time, the Full Power Destruction Beam gave way and was crushed head-on.

Wang Shen stared at the flames, hotter than the sun, and his heart tightened.

Whether he got hurt was one thing, but he wasn't about to fight naked.

"Gaaaaah!"

His energy surged throughout his body, golden arcs of electricity whipping around him. Cracks spread across the ground beneath his feet like a spiderweb as it gradually caved in.

"Hold it back!"

Wang Shen glared furiously, veins bulging across his forehead and muscles knotted tight as he summoned every last bit of energy within him.

Under this unprecedented pressure, Wang Shen's body and energy were being rapidly drained.

The three days and three nights he could originally have fought for were dwindling fast.

Fighting a Super Saiyan God took too much energy. The gap between them was too great.

Even with Wang Shen's formidable strength, how could King Sadala—who had crushed countless monsters and spent years growing stronger as a Super Saiyan God—be an ordinary opponent?

"I can't keep this up. I'm running out of strength."

Wang Shen's chest heaved violently, and fatigue inevitably appeared on his usually resolute face.

He could already feel the scorching heat washing over him, burning his exposed skin.

Just as he was about to run out of strength, Wang Shen suddenly saw a flash of light.

A new power welled up from deep within him, replenishing his depleted energy!

Even King Sadala was surprised to see the Full Power Destruction Beam, which had been on the verge of collapse, suddenly hold firm against his attack.

The faint lightning, too, was now beginning to stand against his flames.

"How is this possible? Karotis still has strength left? What happened?"

What King Sadala didn't know was that Wang Shen was just as overjoyed.

"This is... the power Whis told me about!"

"It's finally appeared!"

It was the immense foundation and astonishing potential Wang Shen had accumulated over thirty years of training in the God of Destruction Realm.

At last, with Wang Shen giving everything he had, releasing his full power, and reaching the brink of exhaustion and defeat, it had erupted all at once!

King Sadala's Super Saiyan God form and blazing flames had even drawn out a trace of God Ki from him.

Wang Shen had never expected that.

When he first broke through to Full Power, he had tried to cultivate God Ki in the God of Destruction Realm on his own.

He'd thought he had failed.

He hadn't realized it was hidden so deep within him. Only now, during an all-out battle against a Super Saiyan God, had it revealed even a fraction of its power.

"Hahahaha! Saiyans really do grow stronger the longer they fight. They can keep unleashing their potential in battle and pushing past their limits!"

Wang Shen threw his head back and laughed.

Hearing this, King Sadala, hovering above him, was taken aback—but then he understood.

"So my pressure made your potential erupt? That's a Saiyan for you! Hahaha!"

Wang Shen's aura surged, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.

"If that's the case, then keep holding it back—push it right back!"
