From the island where Master Roshi lived came a series of fierce collision sounds.

Kashius and Son Goku could be seen trading punches and kicks, fighting with incredible intensity.

However, as time passed, Son Goku had already begun to show signs of faintly overpowering Kashius. That left Kashius with only the ability to defend, without any room to counterattack.

At this moment, the more Kashius fought Son Goku, the more startled he became, and the more he admired him.

Wukong's talent really is unfathomable! Secretly shaken, Kashius feinted with a punch, then used that opening to quickly pull away from Son Goku.

Kashius had never imagined that Son Goku's strength could improve so quickly even before he had learned how to use "ki." Not only could he fight Kashius to a standstill—though Kashius had deliberately hidden his strength—saying he was not shocked would be a lie. Besides, who knew whether Son Goku was also hiding his strength?

Wasn't the Son Goku in the original work someone who enjoyed the pleasure of battle? He would not use his full strength from the start, but instead slowly savor the process of fighting his opponent.

However, this bad habit of Son Goku's was not only a huge waste of time, it was also very... how should it be put? In any case, it had caused Son Goku to nearly die several times...

"Hey, Kashius, you really are strong! It's been ages since I had such a satisfying fight!" Son Goku stepped back a few paces, his eyes shining as he looked at Kashius.

"You're not weak either, Wukong! Come on, attack me with everything you've got! Wukong! Let's see whether you're stronger or I am!" Staring straight at Son Goku, Kashius began to get serious.

This time, he wanted to see whether he had become stronger over these years, or whether Son Goku was stronger.

"Okay!"

Son Goku suddenly let out a loud shout where he stood, and a powerful aura instantly pressed toward Kashius.

The moment Kashius was slightly dazed, Son Goku's fist had already appeared in front of him. And before the fist even arrived, a piercing sound of tearing through the air reached him first.

Kashius knew he could not dodge this punch. He could only take it head-on. Gritting his teeth inwardly and deciding to trade injury for injury, Kashius's right hand suddenly clenched into a fist and struck toward Son Goku with the same thunderous momentum.

Seeing Kashius make a decision in a flash, Son Goku was secretly startled, and he could not help becoming even more cautious.

Son Goku knew that although when they were children and fought, he had mostly been the one to win, his powerful battle instincts told him that his younger brother, Kashius, had definitely not used his full strength against him.

Bang?!

Their fists landed on each other's chests, and the tremendous force transmitted through their fists instantly sent the two brothers flying backward.

But the battle did not end there. The two of them each steadied themselves with a backflip, then stamped hard against the ground and a tree to borrow force before shooting toward each other like cannonballs.

Feeling the burning pain in his chest, Kashius not only was not afraid, but instead grew even more excited. It seemed that the Saiyan blood in his body, which yearned for battle, had completely boiled over at this moment.

The more they fought, the braver they became; the more they battled, the stronger they grew. Born for battle, dying for battle! This was what it meant to be Saiyan!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Huge impacts rang out one after another. Fist against fist, neither of them was willing to give way, and both unleashed their full strength as they attacked each other.

In an instant, wild winds swept through, and the ground shook. The air around them seemed to turn solid, crackling as it gave off bursts of explosive sound.

Even space itself seemed like calm flowing water struck by a boulder, rippling in wave after wave.

"Master Roshi, look, there are people fighting on the island. The sound of their fists colliding is so intense that we can still hear it from this far away.

Just imagine how loud it would be if we were watching up close."

Not far from the island, on the surface of the sea, there was a motorboat. At this moment, aboard it were two bald people, one old and one young.

They were none other than Master Roshi and little Krillin, who had returned from training. The one who had just spoken was the little bald Krillin.

Standing on the boat, Master Roshi wore his special sunglasses and watched the two people fighting on the island from afar. As the small boat drew closer and closer to the island, Master Takeda faintly sensed two extremely powerful pressures in the atmosphere.

Krillin needed even less explanation. Under those two pressures, he collapsed directly onto the boat, and even moving became extremely difficult for him.

"Krillin! Stand up and watch carefully. This will be an opportunity for you to grow stronger, and it will play a crucial role in your future path of martial arts." Seeing this, Master Roshi's eyes gleamed as he spoke with great seriousness.

Seeing Master Roshi's solemn expression, little Krillin understood the importance of the matter. Panting heavily, he struggled to stand up.

"Hey, hey! Those two are monsters, right?!"

"Little Krillin, it seems little Wukong has already far surpassed me on the path of martial arts. The aura produced by the battle between those two alone is already this powerful. I really don't know how many minutes I could last if I fought one of them.

The student really has surpassed the master. Sigh~ Looks like I really am old." Master Roshi sighed and said with emotion.

Kashius and Son Goku, who were in the middle of their intense fight, did not notice the presence of little Krillin and Master Roshi.

At this moment, both of them had their attention focused on each other. As long as either one revealed even the slightest opening, the other would definitely launch a storm-like attack and win this battle.

At that moment, Kashius, who had started cultivating "ki" earlier, suddenly sensed Master Roshi's presence, and his mind stirred slightly.

Little Wukong clearly noticed Kashius's condition. In that split second, little Wukong successfully seized this opening in Kashius's defenses and, while suppressing him, slammed a fierce punch into Kashius's chest.

Suffering a tremendous impact, Kashius's chest caved in directly, and he was sent flying outright. After smashing through several trees in succession, he still did not stop.

With a splash, he fell into the seawater.

This scene left little Krillin dumbstruck, and at the same time, he admired Son Goku from the bottom of his heart.

Wukong really is so strong!

"Krillin! It's not over yet. Don't space out." At this moment, Teacher Takeda's reminder brought little Krillin back to his senses.

"It's still not over? He was knocked into the sea, wasn't he?" Krillin tugged at his small face, making himself a bit more alert.

Before many minutes had passed, a black dot suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea. It also expanded at extreme speed, and finally, with a bang, Kashius's figure appeared above the sea.

Kashius looked utterly wretched at that moment. He had never expected that just a brief lapse in focus would get him punched into the sea by Son Goku. If he had not known the Flight Technique, he would definitely have died.

Wiping away the blood still lingering at the corner of his mouth, Kashius glanced down at his already recovered chest, and his gaze grew even more dangerous as his focus sharpened further. Little Wukong's punch had truly injured him.

On the small island, Little Wukong could not help feeling slightly relieved when he saw Kashius burst out of the sea. As far as he knew, this younger brother of his could not swim. For one instant, he had thought Kashius had died in the sea.

"I knew you wouldn't lose that easily, little brother!"

"I've got to say, big brother, you really don't hold back! You almost finished me off with one punch. That was seriously dangerous!" With a wicked smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, Kashius slowly floated toward Son Goku.

By then, Teacher Takeda and little Krillin had already reached the island by boat.

However, after hearing the conversation between Kashius and Son Goku, their eyes could not help widening, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit a soccer ball.

"What?!!! Wukong is actually that guy's little brother? They're brothers???"

It was not only little Krillin; even Teacher Takeda's jaw nearly dropped from shock.

Hearing Krillin's voice, Son Goku finally noticed that he and Teacher Takeda had returned, and he greeted Teacher Takeda with a blank, adorable look on his face.

"Oh, hey, so Teacher Takeda and Krillin are back. Sorry about that, we were fighting so seriously that we didn't notice! Ahaha!"

Kashius looked at Son Goku scratching his head, completely speechless. He knew this fight would not be continuing. It seemed they could only stop here.
