After a brief moment of amazement, an idea suddenly struck Tarble.
With a base battle power of 677.8 million, he should be able to try transforming into Super Saiyan 2, right?
Let's give it a shot!
No time like the present!
Even though he sensed Licks waiting outside the Gravity Chamber, Tarble still decided to attempt a breakthrough into a new transformation.
Boom!
He transformed into a Super Saiyan in an instant.
Next, he would use the same transformation method and see if it worked!
After psyching himself up and adjusting his mindset, he once again gathered all his ki in his back, following the same special pattern of "slow at first, then fast."
Boom!
In an instant, his aura began to climb.
Outside the Gravity Chamber.
When Licks sensed Tarble's aura suddenly surging, he was shocked.
So powerful!
How had His Highness's aura suddenly become so strong?!
At the same time.
Vegeta, who was still training in another Gravity Chamber, also sensed the fluctuations in Tarble's aura.
"This aura... it's Tarble's!"
"Something's not right!"
"His aura wasn't this strong last night!"
"What in the world is going on... Could Tarble really be the Legendary Super Saiyan?!"
"This is bad!"
Realizing how serious the situation was, he didn't dare waste a moment.
Whoosh!
He flashed over to the gravity controls.
Click!
He pressed the button to turn off the gravity.
Then he raced out of the Gravity Chamber.
The moment he stepped outside, he suddenly realized that Tarble's aura seemed to have reached its peak and stopped growing.
As soon as he noticed, Vegeta abruptly halted. The alarm in his eyes gave way to delight.
His aura was rising, but it wasn't unstable!
Th-this is!!
Could he have already successfully broken through to Super Saiyan 2?!!!
But how was that possible?!
He had only just mastered full power yesterday...
His aura also felt several hundred times greater than yesterday...
What in the world was going on?!
Licks was over there too...
With a nervous heart, Vegeta quickly flew toward Tarble.
When he arrived and saw Tarble surrounded by golden flames streaked with thick white lightning, he was completely stunned.
He really had broken through to Super Saiyan 2!
That was the only thought in his mind.
Though shocked, he slowly descended.
The coolest Super Saiyan 2, bar none
At the same time, Trunks, who had been startled by the commotion, arrived as well.
"Whoa!"
"Uncle Tarble, you can turn into a Super Saiyan 2!"
By the time they got there, Tarble had already sensed them.
With aura fluctuations this intense, there was no way he wouldn't notice.
"Trunks, is this form that surpasses Super Saiyan called Super Saiyan 2?" Tarble glanced at himself and asked, feigning confusion.
Trunks nodded excitedly. "Mm-hmm!"
"That's right, it's called Super Saiyan 2. My dad and Goten's dad can both reach this form."
"Oh, Uncle Goku can even become a Super Saiyan 3!"
"Uncle Tarble, did you know? Super Saiyan 3 looks so freaking cool!"
"And get this, after Goten and I fuse, we can turn into Super Saiyan 3 too!"
"Our power is practically unbeatable!"
Caught up in his excitement, he rattled off a whole lot.
In the end, he even started bragging about himself, just like a typical kid.
Still, that gave Tarble an opening to keep the conversation going.
"There's a Super Saiyan 3 after Super Saiyan 2?"
"I thought that was just a guess of mine!"
"So Super Saiyan 3 really exists?"
"Then are there also Super Saiyan 4 and Super Saiyan 5?"
"Or even higher-level transformations?"
As he spoke, he pretended to look thrilled.
Well, it wasn't entirely an act. He really wanted to know whether there were other transformations beyond Super Saiyan 3.
If there were, he would definitely work toward them.
As for becoming a god, he could think about that later.
In his view, God Ki would be more powerful only if one's base strength was strong enough.
So if Saiyans had higher-level transformations, then trained in God Ki afterward, they would only become stronger!
"Super Saiyan 4?"
"Super Saiyan 5?"
When Trunks heard these two new terms, a huge question mark practically appeared on his face.
How would he know if there were any forms beyond Super Saiyan 3?
"Th-there probably are?"
"Haha!"
He answered uncertainly, then chuckled twice to hide his embarrassment and instinctively looked over at Vegeta.
The latter's eyes lit up, and he said with absolute certainty, "We Saiyans have no limits!"
"Since there's a Super Saiyan 3, there'll definitely be even higher-level transformations after it!"
"Tarble, your guess is definitely right!"
"When the time comes, I'll become a Super Saiyan 4 before that Kakarot!"
"I definitely will!"
His bright eyes seemed to show that he'd gained another goal to strive for.
Become a Super Saiyan 4 first—and beat Kakarot for once while he was at it!
In the blink of an eye, his fighting spirit was soaring again.
Seeing this, Tarble shook his head inwardly.
As expected, they were best friends who both loved and hated each other!
He talked about surpassing Son Goku practically every day!
What a twisted bond!
Still, Tarble agreed with him.
"Big Brother is right. We Saiyans definitely have no limits!"
Vegeta nodded in agreement.
Only then did his attention return to Tarble.
After looking him up and down, he furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "Tarble, what's going on with you?"
"You shouldn't be able to turn into a Super Saiyan 2 this soon!"
"Before, Kakarot, Son Gohan, and I all had to train for a long time after becoming Super Saiyans before we could turn into Super Saiyan 2!"
"You're completely breaking all the rules!"
"Could you really be the Legendary Super Saiyan?"
Sensing the strength of Tarble's aura, Vegeta's understanding of what was possible had taken a major hit.
Before Tarble could answer, he caught sight of the Scouter on Trunks's face and immediately ordered, "Trunks, hurry up and measure your Uncle Tarble's current battle power!"
"Huh?"
"Oh, oh, okay."
Trunks hurriedly fumbled with the Scouter and pressed its scanning button.
Beep beep beep—
When the beeping stopped, he suddenly cried out, "S-six, six hundred seventy-seven point eight billion!"
"Dad, Uncle's battle power has reached 67.78 billion!"
"He's so powerful!"
"Yesterday, it was only 139 million, and now that he's broken through to Super Saiyan 2, it's shot up so much!"
"I want to become a Super Saiyan 2 too!"
At that moment, it looked as though dazzling golden light was shining in his eyes.
He genuinely thought Super Saiyan 2 could make one's battle power soar by that much.
However.
That remark earned him a scolding from his father, Vegeta.
"Idiot!"
"Trunks, are you stupid? How could Super Saiyan 2 possibly make someone's battle power shoot up that much!"
