"Tap tap tap!"

Son Goku and Ginyu's battle continued.

Son Goku now held a firm advantage. Even as he fought Ginyu, he spared some attention to Frieza's changes.

He had noticed that Frieza's aura was still soaring, as though Frieza possessed endless power.

Then I'll end this quickly, Son Goku thought.

He wanted to defeat Ginyu as soon as possible, then watch Frieza's battle with Wu Fei.

A fight between two peak experts could truly be called a visual feast.

Son Goku was also looking forward to witnessing such a scene.

"Ah!"

Son Goku bent low and began gathering energy.

A dark red aura appeared around him as Son Goku unleashed the Kaio-ken!

"Nani?"

Ginyu was terrified now.

He discovered that Son Goku's power had surged dramatically.

Through the Scouter, he learned that Son Goku's battle power had reached 240,000!

Meanwhile, Ginyu's own peak battle power was only 120,000!

"Was he just warming up earlier?"

Ginyu could not believe that Son Goku had been concealing such immense power.

"Ginyu, let's have a good fight!"

In an instant, Son Goku was upon him.

Bang!

Son Goku threw a punch at Ginyu.

He was simply too fast. The utterly horrified Ginyu did not react at all.

Son Goku's fist landed squarely in Ginyu's lower abdomen.

"Ah!"

After taking Son Goku's fierce blow, Ginyu was in tremendous pain.

At the same time, Son Goku's punch sent him staggering backward.

However, this was only the beginning.

Son Goku attacked again.

He moved swiftly to Ginyu's side and drove another punch into Ginyu's lower abdomen.

This time, Ginyu spat out blood!

Bang! Bang!

Son Goku threw two more punches, beating Ginyu black and blue.

Bang bang bang!

Then Son Goku entered a barrage mode, and Ginyu was completely unable to fend him off.

In his Kaio-ken state, Son Goku was utterly brutalizing Ginyu.

Bang!

With a flying kick, Son Goku sent Ginyu straight into the ground.

"Kamehame—ha~"

Still in his Kaio-ken state, Son Goku directly unleashed a Kamehameha.

"No!"

Ginyu screamed in despair.

Yet the Kamehameha still came hurtling toward him.

Rumble!

The Kamehameha caused massive destruction. The ground collapsed, and smoke filled the air.

"Whew, whew~"

That burst of power had consumed quite a bit of Son Goku's energy. He had now canceled the Kaio-ken and returned to normal.

"So strong!"

Vegeta and the others were extremely shocked.

Vegeta had never imagined that Son Goku possessed such tremendous power.

And from the battle just now, Son Goku had displayed top-tier fighting skills and a wealth of combat experience.

Even the proud Vegeta felt that he was simply no match for Son Goku now.

"Damn it!"

"I'm the prince of the Saiyans, yet I've been surpassed by Kakarot, a low-class warrior!"

Vegeta, who had always held himself in high esteem, felt a crushing sense of defeat.

Consumed by rage, he was filled with unwillingness.

"Ah!"

At that moment, Vegeta's power suddenly surged, and his strength rose even further.

Vegeta had actually broken through!

"What?"

Jeice was also utterly shocked now. He discovered that Vegeta's battle power had suddenly soared.

"You damned wild monkey!"

Jeice no longer held anything back and instead launched an all-out attack on Vegeta.

"Ah!"

However, Vegeta's fist struck first despite moving later, smashing directly into Jeice's face.

Jeice was sent flying backward by Vegeta's punch.

"Hmph!"

"This prince will kill you once and for all!"

Vegeta pressed his advantage and continued attacking Jeice.

As he continuously adapted to the power within his body, Vegeta displayed even greater strength.

Vegeta began brutally crushing Jeice!

As the smoke cleared, Ginyu's figure emerged.

Ginyu was in an extremely sorry state, covered in wounds. Both his horns had been broken, and even his aura was terribly weak.

"Cough, cough, cough~"

Ginyu's expression was filled with pain.

He no longer had the strength to fight!

"Damn it!"

Ginyu furiously pounded the ground.

However, his blow was so weak and limp.

Ginyu was completely crippled now!

Son Goku looked coldly at Ginyu, with no intention of following up with a fatal blow.

He saw that Ginyu had become completely useless and no longer posed any threat to him.

Perhaps it was simply his nature, but he could never bring himself to deal a killing blow to an opponent.

"Whoosh!"

Son Goku turned around and looked over the other battles.

He found that Vegeta had already completely overwhelmed Jeice, while Piccolo and Burter were fighting back and forth, with Piccolo faintly holding the upper hand.

However, seeing that Gohan and Krillin were having a somewhat difficult fight, he decided to go help them.

"Hahaha!"

Watching Son Goku's departing figure, Ginyu's expression changed. He stared at Son Goku with a ferocious look on his face.

"What a naive fool!"

"My chance has come!"

Facing Son Goku, he used the last of his strength to shout, "Change!"

Then, a yellow beam shot out of Ginyu's mouth.

"What?"

Son Goku was suddenly horrified. His body was completely beyond his control, and he could not move at all!

The yellow beam fired by Ginyu struck Son Goku's body directly.

Son Goku felt extremely uncomfortable, as though his soul were being stripped away.

"Hahaha!"

"Captain Ginyu has finally used his ultimate technique!"

Pineapple-headed Recoome said excitedly.

Body Change was Ginyu's signature technique. He had continuously swapped bodies with powerful fighters through this move, thereby increasing his own strength.

Now, his target for the exchange was Son Goku.

"Ha ha ha!"

"You fool, your power will soon belong to me!"

Ginyu's soul laughed maniacally as it steadily approached Son Goku along the yellow beam.

"Damn it!"

Son Goku's soul had also separated from his body and was held fast by the overwhelming force. He had no way to stop it now!

Once their souls switched, Ginyu's plan would be completely accomplished!

"Heh heh!"

Wu Fei had watched everything unfold.

The corner of his mouth lifted slightly, as if everything was under his control.

"Whoosh!"

Wu Fei appeared on the ground.

"Ribbit!"

A frog passing over the ground suddenly found itself grabbed.

"Ginyu!"

"This suits you better!"

Wu Fei shouted as he tossed the frog over.

"Ribbit!"

The frog's body landed neatly between Son Goku and Ginyu.

"No!"

Ginyu's expression changed, and terror filled his face.

What had seemed like a sure victory had unexpectedly taken a sudden turn.

But Ginyu had no way back now.

After all, the skill Body Change could not be interrupted!

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

The yellow beam Ginyu fired struck the frog, and his soul entered its body.

The dust settled. Ginyu and the frog had completed the Body Change!

"Ribbit, ribbit!"

At that moment, "Ginyu" moved with both hands and feet, crawling on all fours.

He looked innocently at everyone, then hopped away.

"My judgment really is excellent!"

"Frogs suit you much better!" Wu Fei laughed.

"Ribbit, ribbit!"

"Frog" Ginyu croaked loudly, but there was nothing he could do.

He had never imagined that the famed Captain Ginyu would end up becoming a frog!

"Forget it, staying alive comes first!" "Frog" Ginyu, drenched in cold sweat, quickly hopped away from the battlefield.
