Majin Vegeta, Futile Struggle!

"I told you long ago, you are no match for me."

"You weren't before, and you'll have even less of a chance in the future."

"Give up while you can; you will never catch up to me in this lifetime."

Qin Feng walked up to Vegeta, his tone remarkably indifferent.

Never mind winning, even if he wanted to kill Vegeta right now, it would be nothing more than a flick of his finger.

"No... that's absolutely impossible!"

"I am a Super Saiyan 3, how could I possibly lose?"

"That must have been pure luck, you just got lucky!"

Vegeta clenched his fists tightly, his features twisted beyond recognition.

A boundless sense of humiliation was driving him to the brink of madness.

He had thought that transforming into a Super Saiyan 3 would make him invincible, yet to be defeated in a single move by Qin Feng in his Super Saiyan 2 state was even more agonizing than death itself.

"You bastard!"

Vegeta let out a hysterical roar and sprang up from the ground.

Exerting all his strength, he charged at Qin Feng like a crazed bull.

"You don't know when to quit."

Qin Feng shook his head impatiently.

"Time-Skip."

The skill activated once more. Just as Vegeta's fist was about to land, Qin Feng vanished into thin air.

Bang!

The next second.

Vegeta felt a sharp, violent pain in his temple; his head buzzed, and he instantly lost the ability to think.

His entire body flew sideways, stiff as a board.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

His massive frame crashed through several rocky peaks in succession.

The temple is a lethal point on the human body; even a Super Saiyan 3 like Vegeta could not withstand such a heavy blow.

"It seems Vegeta really is no match for Qin Feng."

"He only just mastered Super Saiyan 3 and cannot fully control that power yet."

In the distance, Son Goku watched the battle between the two and whispered to himself.

Although the Super Saiyan 3 state brings terrifying speed and power, its drawbacks are equally fatal: the consumption of stamina and energy is absurdly fast.

If it were him, he would never use Super Saiyan 3 in a fight unless absolutely necessary.

Once the energy is exhausted without securing a victory, one is left with nothing but death.

Meanwhile, inside the spaceship beneath the Desolate Valley.

The wizard Babidi was holding a crystal ball, watching the battle on the surface with great interest.

"Hee hee hee! This guy named Vegeta has so many negative emotions hidden in his heart!"

"After being defeated by that Qin Feng, his rage and jealousy have gone off the charts. Heaven is truly helping me!"

A sinister light flickered in Babidi's eyes.

His magic was specifically designed to control those with evil thoughts.

The darker the heart, the easier it was for him to exploit the opening.

At first, controlling Vegeta had been quite difficult because the man's will was relatively firm.

But after being defeated by Qin Feng twice in a row, Vegeta's defenses had completely crumbled.

Anger, jealousy, humiliation... all sorts of negative emotions were growing wildly in his heart like poisonous weeds.

With things this way, controlling him would be a piece of cake.

"Be a good slave for me, Vegeta!"

"Perhaps you might even unleash power more terrifying than Majin Buu. How truly exciting!"

Babidi let out a shrill, strange laugh and began chanting a spell, his hands aimed at the crystal ball.

Behind him, the giant pink egg seemed to be absorbing the energy overflowing from the battle above.

Its surface began to pulse with a flickering, dark purple light.

"Bastard..."

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

"How could he possibly be stronger than me?!"

Amidst the ruins, Vegeta's face was a mask of resentment and fury, his features twisted like a demon from hell.

"Vegeta! Calm down at once!"

"That wizard named Babidi can control those with evil in their hearts!"

"If you keep acting like this, he will take control of you!"

Noticing that something was wrong with Vegeta's state, Supreme Kai Shin broke into a cold sweat and shouted a warning.

Babidi was surely hiding in the shadows, watching them.

Given Vegeta's current strength, the consequences would be unimaginable if he were to be controlled.

"Is that so?"

Son Goku was stunned as well.

If that were true, Vegeta was in real trouble this time.

Everyone knew how many evil deeds this guy had committed in the past; he was never exactly a saint.

Now that his pride had been crushed to pieces by Qin Feng, he was at his most vulnerable.

"Babidi? Control?"

Hearing the Supreme Kai's shout, Vegeta's expression shifted slightly.

He suddenly recalled Spopovich at the martial arts tournament, who had become incredibly bizarre.

"Arghhh!"

Suddenly, Vegeta clutched his head and let out a painful scream.

"Vegeta! What's wrong with you?!"

Watching Vegeta roll on the ground in agony, Son Goku panicked.

"It's over... everything is over! Babidi has already set his sights on him!"

"He is about to become a puppet controlled by Babidi!"

Supreme Kai Shin's face turned deathly pale, his eyes filled with despair.

Crackle!

No sooner had he spoken than a burst of blinding, pale purple lightning erupted around Vegeta.

At the same time, his energy began to skyrocket with explosive intensity!

"Tch, this guy really won't give up until he hits rock bottom."

Watching the agonizing Vegeta, Qin Feng frowned slightly and commented coldly.

At this moment, a cursive "M" mark had already appeared on Vegeta's forehead, glowing with an eerie red light!

This was the mark of having been successfully brainwashed by the wizard Babidi.

Who could have imagined that the proud Prince of all Saiyans would eventually willingly become someone else's puppet?

One had to realize that with Vegeta's intense pride, a mere Babidi could never have forcibly controlled him if he didn't want it.

It was clear that he had intentionally opened his heart and mind, actively welcoming Babidi's dark magic.

In the original story, Vegeta chose to fall because he witnessed Son Goku's strength and wanted to close the gap.

But now, he was doing this purely to defeat him.

However, in Qin Feng's eyes, such behavior was hopelessly stupid.

The chasm in strength between them was already worlds apart.

Even if Vegeta forcibly boosted his combat power through dark magic, he was still nothing but a complete loser in front of Qin Feng.

"Hey! Vegeta!"

Son Goku shouted anxiously from a distance.

Yet Vegeta turned a deaf ear, suddenly looking up to glare at Qin Feng, his features twisted like a crazed beast.

"You bastard!"

"How dare you trample me under your feet time and time again, treating me like a monkey!"

"I am a noble prince, with the finest blood in the entire universe flowing through my veins!"

"Today, I will slaughter you all and wash away every bit of this humiliation!"

Vegeta clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with resentment and madness, his body trembling from extreme agitation.

At the same time, his energy began to swell uncontrollably.

Although he still appeared as a Super Saiyan 3, the pressure he radiated was more than ten times stronger than before!

"How is this possible? How could Vegeta's ki suddenly surge to such a degree?"

Feeling this terrifying energy, Son Goku widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

During their special training in the Otherworld, Vegeta's limit was definitely not this high!

And now, this ki even showed signs of faintly overshadowing his own!

"Mr. Goku, it is like this."

"Once controlled by Babidi's magic, one's latent potential is forcibly unleashed, leading to an explosive growth in power."

"Just like the two humans at the tournament earlier; their actual strength was pitifully weak."

Standing to the side, Supreme Kai Shin hurriedly spoke up to explain when he saw the confusion on Son Goku's face.

"I see."

"It seems Vegeta knew about this trick all along."

"That must be why he was willing to be controlled."

Son Goku rubbed his chin, suddenly enlightened.

"What did you say? He did it on purpose? How is that possible!"

Supreme Kai Shin's jaw nearly hit the floor in shock.

"What's so strange about that? Vegeta values his pride more than his own life. If he had refused to give in, what could a mere wizard have done to him?"

Son Goku gave a bitter laugh, shaking his head with a sigh.

When it came to understanding Vegeta, no one could compare to him.

"But... what is he after? Why sell his own soul?"

Supreme Kai Shin stomped his feet in anxiety, completely unable to comprehend the Saiyan way of thinking.

"To defeat Qin Feng. You wouldn't understand that kind of obsession."

Son Goku looked at Vegeta in mid-air with a complex expression.

He could understand this extreme thirst for power, but he himself would never go to such extremes.
