Gohan was so excited that he threw himself straight into Goku's arms.

"Gohan, long time no see!"

"You've gotten stronger. Looks like you've been training hard this past year!"

Goku patted Gohan's head and spoke with relief.

"Goku!"

Krillin and the others had now gathered around Goku as well.

They discovered that after a year of training, Goku's aura had clearly become different.

His entire presence was more restrained, making him seem exceptionally reserved.

Yet Krillin realized that he could not sense Goku's aura at all.

Clearly, the gap between him and Goku had only grown wider.

"Son Goku! Your training has paid off wonderfully!" Piccolo said from the side.

He could now also feel that he and Goku were no longer on the same level.

"That's right. Training on King Kai's Planet has greatly increased my strength!"

Goku then looked around and found the area covered in traces of battle.

He also saw the corpses lying nearby, including Yamcha's.

Besides that, he spotted a bald man with no trace of life left in him.

The bald man had a very conspicuous tail, so he must have been a Saiyan.

Goku was now full of questions. He had no idea what had happened here just moments ago!

"Earlier, I sensed two very powerful auras. One belonged to Mr. Wu Fei—what about the other one?"

"And weren't there two Saiyans? Where's the other one?"

Seeing Goku's confused expression, Krillin immediately explained everything to him, recounting the entire course of events.

Gradually, Goku's doubts faded.

"Looks like I still arrived too late!" Goku sighed.

His words were full of regret.

Goku had always been a battle fanatic, obsessed with martial arts.

He had trained painstakingly for an entire year, and his strength had increased drastically.

What he wanted most right now was to test the results of his training.

He had rushed back to Earth this time precisely to fight those two Saiyans.

But what happened?

Before he even got back, the battle was already over.

"This is a bit troublesome!" Goku said in frustration.

His hands were itching for a fight, and all he wanted was a good, satisfying battle.

"Mr. Wu Fei, let's have a match!" Goku said with a smile.

"Huh?" Krillin was greatly surprised.

But he also knew that Goku was not merely saying it. He genuinely wanted to fight Wu Fei.

"Mr. Wu Fei just went through a major battle. I'm afraid he doesn't have the strength to fight you right now!"

Wu Fei replied calmly, "It's no problem!"

"If you want to fight, then let's fight!"

Although he had just fought a major battle against Vegeta, he was still in good condition.

He also wanted to see just how effective Goku's training had been.

Although he knew that Goku's normal combat power was only 8,000, one should not forget that Goku was the protagonist. What he did best was break through his limits in battle and reach an even higher level.

Most importantly, the instant Goku proposed a fight, a voice rang out in his mind: "Ding! Please accept Son Goku's challenge and defeat Son Goku! Reward: Unknown!"

Wu Fei was now thinking of defeating Son Goku to complete the mission!

So, he gladly accepted Son Goku's challenge.

"Great!" Goku looked extremely excited.

"Here!"

Wu Fei tossed a Senzu Bean to Goku.

"You rushed all the way here and used up quite a bit of energy too. You should recover first!"

"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"

Goku took the Senzu Bean, swallowed it in one bite, and immediately returned to peak condition.

"Then let's begin!" Wukong had already assumed a fighting stance.

"Bring it on!" Wu Fei was ready as well.

On the way back earlier, Wukong had already sensed Wu Fei's powerful aura.

Under these circumstances, he had no intention of holding back and went all out from the start.

"So strong!" Krillin was utterly shocked.

He had long expected Wukong's strength to improve drastically, but he had never imagined Wukong would become this powerful. This was completely beyond anything he could comprehend!

"Damn it!"

After sensing Wukong's aura, Piccolo was deeply unwilling to accept it as well.

A year ago, his strength might have been inferior to Wukong's, but the gap had not been large.

But now, the two of them were no longer on the same level at all.

A thought arose in Piccolo's heart: Perhaps I'll never be able to surpass him again.

Bang!

In an instant, Wu Fei and Wukong collided.

"So strong!" Son Goku exclaimed sincerely.

He was even more excited now. He wanted nothing more than to fight a powerful opponent!

Bang bang bang~

The two became locked in close combat.

Neither of them used energy blasts. They relied entirely on hand-to-hand combat techniques.

This kind of bone-rattling battle was absolutely a visual feast!

Unfortunately, Krillin and the others could not see them clearly at all. Wu Fei and Wukong were simply too fast!

Wu Fei was also thoroughly enjoying this battle.

Although Wukong's strength was far below his own, Wukong was still an exceptionally experienced martial artist.

When it came to fighting techniques, Wu Fei was no match for Son Goku.

Wu Fei also took this opportunity to gain experience and improve his own combat skills.

Bang!

Wukong threw a punch, only for Wu Fei to block it directly with his right palm.

Thud!

Wu Fei launched a left hook, and Wukong took the punch squarely.

Thud!

Wukong was struck by another uppercut from Wu Fei.

Wu Fei sent Wukong flying, then flashed forward, intending to punch him in the lower abdomen.

Whoosh!

But Wukong flashed away, dodging Wu Fei's attack and appearing behind him!

Wukong drove an elbow into Wu Fei's back.

"Hm?"

Wukong froze in confusion.

Because his elbow had struck nothing but air!

"It's an afterimage!"

By the time Wukong realized it, Wu Fei had already appeared behind him.

Bang!

Wu Fei showed no mercy, hammering both fists into Wukong's back.

Pfft!

Wukong suffered a heavy blow and fell rapidly downward.

Boom!

A crater was instantly smashed into the ground.

"Dad!"

"Wukong!"

Gohan, Krillin, and the others were extremely worried.

"Cough, cough, cough~"

"I'm fine!"

As the smoke cleared, Goku rose to his feet and looked up at Wu Fei in the sky.

"Mr. Wu Fei, you really are strong!"

"Next, I'm going to use my true strength!"

"Twofold Kaio-ken!"

"Ahh~"

As Goku continued gathering his energy, a dark red aura slowly appeared around him.

"Huh?"

Krillin and the others were utterly shocked.

They were very familiar with this scene—Wu Fei had used this move just moments ago!

It was with this move that Wu Fei had successfully defeated Vegeta in his Great Ape Transformation.

"So this move is called Kaio-ken!"

"I never thought Goku had learned such an incredible technique too!"

After using Kaio-ken, Goku's aura surged dramatically.

"Let's continue!"

Whoosh!

With a piercing rush through the air, Goku charged at Wu Fei once more.

"The warm-up is finally over," Wu Fei murmured.

Wu Fei and Goku's battle continued!
