Super Saiyan 2! Transformation!

"Looks like, with my current transformation, my chances of beating you aren't very good." Sun Wukong took a deep breath and clenched his fists tightly.

"Oh? You're pretty self-aware, Sun Wukong!" Frieza rubbed his nose and chuckled. "I love how you hate me but can't do a thing about it!"

"In that case, I'll transform a little, too!" Sun Wukong grinned, then couldn't help praising him. "But come to think of it, Frieza, you really are amazing! I never thought I'd need to transform like this just to deal with you!"

Frieza: "????"

But right after that, Frieza suddenly realized what was going on. His pupils contracted slightly, and his expression changed.

Could Sun Wukong already transform into Super Saiyan Blue?

You bastard...

You're cheating!

If you can transform into Super Saiyan Blue now, I, Frieza, am not playing with you anymore!

I'm quitting this game!

Golden light surged wildly from Sun Wukong's body, and his hair stood even more upright.

"Crackle... crackle..."

Bolts of lightning coiled around Sun Wukong, crackling and popping.

An immense energy burst from his body.

Super Saiyan 2!

Seeing Sun Wukong's transformation, Frieza finally let out the breath he'd been holding.

I thought this guy could turn into Super Saiyan Blue.

You scared me!

Good thing he can't!

So he's just got a little lightning around him?

You think that makes you so impressive?

"I thought you were going to turn into something else. You've just got a little more lightning around you." Frieza chuckled softly, the corner of his mouth curling into a faint smile.

"This isn't just about having more lightning. It's called the Super Saiyan 2 transformation!" Sun Wukong answered honestly.

"Ohohoho!" Frieza let out a series of strange laughs. "I thought it was going to be something impressive! Super Saiyan 2! This is getting more and more interesting!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Frieza spun around in a dazzling flourish, unleashing a huge ball of energy from his hand.

The energy swept toward where Sun Wukong stood.

Then Frieza pelted Sun Wukong with energy blasts as if they cost him nothing.

When the smoke gradually cleared, Sun Wukong stood unharmed across from Frieza.

Frieza: "..."

Frieza's pupils contracted slightly, and his expression changed again and again.

This wasn't right!

Why had Sun Wukong gotten so strong?

I'm the real protagonist!

I, Frieza, was reincarnated!

How could this happen?

Frieza was overcome with sorrow, his heart heavy with frustration.

"Dad... Dad transformed again?" Son Gohan asked curiously.

"That's right. This transformation is even stronger than his previous Super Saiyan transformation." Old Supreme Kai nodded gently.

Th-this... How is this possible? Supreme Kai's eye twitched, his expression changing.

"Lord Supreme Kai, why do I feel that Sun Wukong's energy is stronger than ours now?" Kibito whispered into Supreme Kai's ear.

"I feel the same way!" Supreme Kai nodded gravely.

"He's only a human! How can a human's energy reach such a level?" Kibito was genuinely stunned.

"I understand now. No wonder Old Supreme Kai said... Majin Buu was nothing to fear!" Supreme Kai smiled with relief. "At Sun Wukong's current rate of growth, perhaps one day he really will be able to defeat Majin Buu!"

"Judging by his energy... Lord Supreme Kai, how big do you think the gap between him and Majin Buu is?" Kibito asked quietly.

"Based on his energy... I feel he's already close to Majin Buu, perhaps even stronger." Supreme Kai pondered. "But that doesn't mean he can defeat Majin Buu. Grand Supreme Kai was stronger than Majin Buu back then, and yet Majin Buu still absorbed him, didn't he?"

"That's true..." Kibito lowered his head.

The two looked back at the crystal ball, watching the battle between Sun Wukong and Frieza.

Sun Wukong slowly raised his hand and spread his five fingers.

"Boom!"

A Tri-Beam erupted from Sun Wukong's hand and quickly engulfed Frieza.

"That's the Tri-Beam! Tien!" Chiaotzu shouted excitedly.

"It's the same Tri-Beam, but Goku's is countless times more powerful than mine." Tien Shinhan sighed as sweat ran down his face.

Under Sun Wukong's Tri-Beam, Frieza's body tumbled through the air hundreds of times.

When Frieza finally stopped, his head was ringing, and he was dizzy for quite a while.

Sun Wukong's lips lifted slightly.

Frieza gritted his teeth in fury.

Damn it!

That bastard Sun Wukong!

Why couldn't I beat him even after I was reincarnated?

Did I have no choice but to activate my Golden Frieza form?

The problem was... I could only maintain that form for thirty seconds.

It was my biggest trump card.

But if I didn't activate my Golden Frieza form, I definitely couldn't beat Sun Wukong as he was now.

I'm the protagonist of this world!

Because I, Frieza, was reincarnated!

"Whoosh!"

Sun Wukong turned into a streak of golden light and vanished from where he stood in a flash.

What was most terrifying was that even after Sun Wukong disappeared, bolts of lightning remained where he'd been.

In the blink of an eye, Sun Wukong appeared right in front of Frieza and drove a heavy elbow into his head.

Frieza was sent tumbling through the air. As soon as he righted himself, Sun Wukong threw an uppercut that sent him flying backward.

"Bang!"

Sun Wukong rushed forward and slammed his head into Frieza's lower back.

"Ow..."

Frieza let out a pained groan, gritted his teeth, and charged in, raining punches and kicks on Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong raised his hands and blocked every one of Frieza's attacks.

"You bastard!" Frieza flew into a rage and leaped backward. He raised a hand, and a streak of fiery red light flashed from his palm.

"Frieza, why are you using that move again?" Sun Wukong said, swatting the fiery red streak aside with a single slap.

Frieza fell silent.

At that moment, Frieza knew clearly that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't beat Sun Wukong in his current state.

"Heh heh heh! Heh heh heh!" Frieza kept snorting and letting out strange laughs.

Sun Wukong paused, then looked Frieza over carefully.

"Not bad, Sun Wukong! Your strength really did exceed my expectations," Frieza said with a chuckle. "But your good luck ends here. Next, I'll show you Frieza's true power!"
