"Kakarot, let's have some fun!" Vegeta's lips curled into a faint smile.
"Okay..." Sun Wukong nodded, then said to Krillin and the others, "You don't need to get involved!"
"Goku... good luck!" Krillin urged.
"Yeah, Goku, we're counting on you!" Yamcha shook his head, his face pale with fear. "Just sensing that guy's ki earlier made me feel like I was suffocating! We don't stand a chance against him."
"Looks like we have to rely on Goku to handle things again..." Tien Shinhan sighed helplessly.
Sun Wukong said no more and started toward Vegeta.
"Kakarot, you should feel honored to fight a genius warrior like me, you low-class warrior!" Vegeta chuckled. "But I have to admit, beating Nappa was quite an achievement!"
"Vegeta... I don't know how to put this..." Sun Wukong scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
I feel like I'm picking on you.
"You don't need to say much!" Vegeta snorted. "Let me tell you something. Saiyans are tested for their potential as warriors from the moment they're born. Those with low battle power, like you, are sent to planets with no strong fighters! In other words, you were discarded."
"I guess I should say... that's why I came to Earth. So, thanks..." Sun Wukong laughed. "And... even though I was discarded, hard work can still let me surpass you..."
"Hmph, you've got to be joking!" Vegeta burst out laughing. "Then I'll show you the unbridgeable gulf that you'll never cross, no matter how hard you try!"
As he spoke, Vegeta immediately assumed a fighting stance.
Sun Wukong, however, stood there calmly.
"You... are you looking down on me?" Vegeta fumed. "You won't stay so calm for long."
"Mm." Sun Wukong nodded.
"Whoosh!"
Vegeta rushed toward Sun Wukong and launched a flurry of punches and kicks.
Sun Wukong raised his hands and effortlessly blocked every attack.
Ten seconds later.
Vegeta suddenly leaped backward, putting some distance between himself and Sun Wukong. He stared at the low-class warrior in disbelief.
"Th-this is impossible!" Vegeta was genuinely stunned.
Did Kakarot just block every one of my attacks with ease?
How could this happen?
"You... you haven't shown your true strength!" Vegeta gritted his teeth and shouted.
"That's right." Sun Wukong nodded in admission.
Piccolo and the others stared at the astonishing scene, their eyes wide with disbelief.
What was going on?
Goku had blocked that Saiyan named Vegeta's attacks so effortlessly?
And he still seemed to have plenty of strength to spare.
On top of that, Goku had said he still hadn't shown his true strength.
"What kind of training did Goku go through this past year?" Yamcha marveled.
"Goku's gotten this strong in less than a year?" Krillin wiped away his sweat.
"Though I hate to admit it, that's the truth." Cold sweat ran down Piccolo's face. "That Sun Wukong..."
"Dad is amazing!" Son Gohan clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes sparkling with admiration.
I thought Uncle Piccolo was already really strong.
But compared with Dad, they're worlds apart.
"That guy named Vegeta is furious!" Yamcha remarked.
"If he really is the Saiyan Prince, and he just called Goku a low-class warrior while calling himself a genius warrior... this must be humiliating..." Krillin didn't know how else to put it.
Goku, you're really rubbing salt in the wound.
"Damn you, Kakarot! Show me your full strength!" Vegeta roared furiously at Sun Wukong.
"Um... I don't think that's a good idea." Sun Wukong scratched his head sheepishly and smiled. "Vegeta, if you just train hard, you'll definitely become as strong as me someday."
Vegeta: "..."
Vegeta grew even angrier, his body trembling more and more violently.
Is that something a low-class warrior would say?
"Damn you! Who do you think you are?" Vegeta was absolutely furious. Energy erupted from him as if it cost him nothing.
At last, Vegeta released all his energy, and his battle power shot up to 18,000.
North King Kai's planet.
King Kai gazed toward Earth in the distance and shook his head with a sigh.
This Saiyan Prince named Vegeta was in for a bad time.
What kind of monster from your own race have you run into?
In just 150 days, his battle power shot up from 500 to nearly a million.
Could Goku really be the most gifted Saiyan warrior?
How much battle power does Vegeta have, anyway?
"Why do I get the feeling Goku's deliberately holding back?" King Kai muttered. He couldn't quite understand what Sun Wukong was doing.
"Kakarot, you're finished!" Vegeta snarled and charged toward Sun Wukong.
Watching Vegeta rush toward him, Sun Wukong suddenly raised a hand.
"Wait, Vegeta!" Sun Wukong called out.
Vegeta slowed to a stop. His lips curled into an even brighter smile as he sneered, "What? It's not too late to surrender!"
"No, I've thought it over, and I've decided to tell you something." Sun Wukong took a deep breath.
"You... what do you want to say?" Vegeta's face darkened.
"I'll tell you about Super Saiyans." Sun Wukong smiled.
"Y-you... you said Super Saiyans?" Vegeta's expression changed again and again as he stared at Sun Wukong in shock.
"That's right." Sun Wukong nodded.
"How much do you know?" Vegeta asked, visibly excited.
"Pop!"
Sun Wukong took a deep breath. Suddenly, golden flames blazed around him, and his hair stood straight up.
A powerful aura surged outward from Sun Wukong in every direction.
Everyone present was stunned by Sun Wukong's transformation. They stared with wide eyes, unable to recover for a long moment.
"Goku... why does Goku look like that now?" Krillin stared in astonishment.
"And Goku's ki has gotten even stronger! It's terrifying! That aura..." Yamcha shuddered, cold sweat pouring down his face.
"This..." Piccolo was stunned. He opened his mouth but couldn't speak for a long moment.
"Is that Dad?" Son Gohan didn't know what to say either.
"Incredible... is this Goku's transformation?" Chiaotzu stared, uncertain.
"Could this be Goku's true strength?" Tien Shinhan gaped in amazement.
Vegeta's pupils contracted, and his expression changed over and over.
"You see?" Sun Wukong laughed. "This is a Super Saiyan... simply put, it's a transformation."
