"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Giant boulders slammed frantically against the barrier, a continuous series of explosions echoing out as stone fragments scattered everywhere and dust filled the sky.
But in truth, the barrier didn't budge in the slightest. The massive rocks hit it as if striking an invisible wall of solid steel, failing to create even a single crack.
Jiang Che stood there, motionless, not even the hem of his clothes fluttering.
He paid no mind to how the stones were hurled; not a single speck of dust could get near him.
He swept a glance at the shattered boulders and shook his head, his tone tinged with disappointment. "Is that all you've got?" he said. "Baby, you occupy such a fine body as Vegeta's, yet you use it like a piece of trash. What a waste. To have the Prince of Saiyans ruined like this is a true insult to the Saiyan bloodline."
Great Ape Baby gritted his teeth, foam gathering at the corners of his mouth as he roared, "Shut your mouth! I am the soul of King Tuffle, a supreme existence! You lowly ant, how dare you act so arrogant before me?"
He flung his mouth wide open. This time, the energy sphere he gathered was significantly larger than the previous wave. Its black radiance was like a newborn black hole, swallowing the sun directly until the entire sky was nearly submerged in darkness.
The space around the energy sphere twisted incessantly, and the rocks and dust on the ground were sucked up, forming a whirlwind.
"Destruction Energy Sphere: Super Maximum Level!"
That massive black energy sphere descended like a falling black sun, hurtling toward Jiang Che with the momentum to destroy everything in its path.
It plowed a deep trench into the ground along its trajectory, the air thick with a scorched scent, as if time itself had come to a standstill.
Jiang Che looked up, staring at the black energy sphere, and finally grew serious, his eyes gleaming. "This move is actually somewhat interesting; it's worth me getting serious."
Suddenly, his figure flashed, leaping instantly into the high sky with such speed that only a blurred afterimage remained.
He pressed his palms together, and a crimson energy sphere of equal magnitude condensed between them.
The surface of the sphere burned with raging flames, crackling loudly, while a pungent scent of blood permeated the air.
"Super Saiyan God: World-Ending Light Wheel!"
The red energy sphere and the black energy sphere collided violently in mid-air!
The moment the two energies met, a heaven-shaking roar erupted, numbing their ears.
Rumble—
The shockwave spread in all directions like ripples, and visible tremors appeared in the air.
Several nearby asteroids were shattered instantly, turning into meteors that vanished at the edge of the horizon.
The boulders on the ground were sent tumbling, and dust filled the sky.
Son Goku lay in the ruins, his tattered combat suit stained red with blood.
He struggled to lift his head, watching the two entangled energies in the sky, his eyes filled with shock.
He rasped, "This guy... he can actually go head-to-head with Great Ape Baby? How is that possible! Baby has clearly surpassed Super Saiyan 3!"
Pan supported him, gripping his hand nervously. "Grandpa, don't talk for now. Your injuries are too severe, the bleeding won't stop..."
Mr. Satan was beside them, nearly driven mad with anxiety, sweating profusely as he paced in place. "Can that red-haired kid actually do it or not? If he loses, Earth is finished! I don't want to die in this godforsaken place; I still have a tour to attend!"
"He won't lose." Son Goku spoke suddenly, his voice weak, yet his eyes shone with a peculiar light.
He watched Jiang Che in the sky, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. "I can feel it—that guy hasn't even used his full strength yet. His aura is as deep as the ocean; he's only revealed the tip of the iceberg."
Above the battlefield, the red and black masses of energy continued to clash frantically.
Crimson and pitch-black intertwined and tore at each other, the deafening roar growing ever more intense.
Jiang Che's arms trembled slightly, a bead of sweat appearing on his forehead, but his gaze remained rock-hard.
Great Ape Baby's body also shook violently, his fur standing on end, muscles bulging, his pupils filled with disbelief. "This guy... how could he have this kind of power! He is merely a descendant of the Monkey Planet!"
"The possibilities of this world are not something you can imagine," Jiang Che said coldly, his eyes flashing with a chilling light.
He thrust his palms forward, and the crimson energy sphere began to expand, slowly suppressing the black one.
The grand showdown in the sky had yet to cease.
Everyone on the ground held their breath, their fates hanging by a thread.
The crimson energy sphere in Jiang Che's palms churned wildly, spiderweb-like arcs of electricity dancing across its surface as if he were clutching a star on the verge of explosion.
A powerful wind erupted from beneath him, sending rocks and dust soaring, while circular shockwaves swept through the surroundings, uprooting trees within a hundred meters.
Great Ape Baby stood ten meters away, veins bulging on his forehead as black energy seeped from his pores like ink, gathering into a suffocating black sphere before him.
The air hissed as it was eroded by the black energy; the ground cracked, and debris hovered in mid-air as if held by a black hole.
"Disappear!" Great Ape Baby roared, thrusting his arms forward. The black energy sphere, carrying an aura of destruction, slammed straight toward Jiang Che.
Jiang Che curled his lip in a sneer. "You dare to be arrogant with this little bit of energy? I'll show you what true power is!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed his hands forward.
The crimson energy sphere in his palms expanded several times over, bursting with monstrous fire like a blooming red lotus. The dazzling light made Baby squint instinctively.
The red energy sphere was like a prehistoric beast awakening; it opened its burning maw and swallowed the black energy sphere whole.
"What?!" Great Ape Baby's pupils contracted. Before he could react, the crimson energy sphere, carrying an unstoppable momentum, slammed heavily into his chest!
Boom—!
A thunderous explosion erupted, as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth shattering.
Great Ape Baby's massive body was sent flying as if struck by a titan's fist, swept away in an instant.
His back slammed violently into the mountainside, causing the peak to shatter instantly as rubble cascaded down like a waterfall.
His body dragged a trench over a thousand meters long across the ground, churning up soil and pulverizing rock, leaving blackened gouges on both sides.
After smashing through a dozen more peaks, he finally came to a halt amidst the wreckage, his flesh mangled and his bones creaking audibly.
He struggled to prop himself up, his breathing as heavy and ragged as a broken bellows.
But before he could even steady himself, a figure appeared silently—Jiang Che hovered above his head, his robes snapping in the wind, golden-red aura burning around him like a god descending.
"It's over." Jiang Che looked down at him from above, his eyes as cold as frost.
He clenched his right hand slightly, causing the air to tremble violently; the next second, a crimson longsword forged from pure divine power materialized in his grip.
Magma-like patterns flowed across the blade, and translucent flames danced upon its surface, its edge sharp enough to sever all things.
"Super Saiyan God: Judgment Sword!"
Jiang Che raised the longsword high, the blade shrieking as it tore through the air, and swung it fiercely toward Great Ape Baby's neck!
"No!" Great Ape Baby roared in despair, black blood bubbling from the corners of his mouth, his pupils reflecting the descending Judgment Sword. "You can't kill me! Vegeta's body is still in my hands!"
Jiang Che's arm paused, the tip of the blade stopping a mere inch from Great Ape Baby's neck; the heat of the edge scorched the air, causing even Great Ape Baby's fur to begin smoldering.
Jiang Che let out a cold sneer: "Do you really think I care?"
