Son Goku vs. Vegeta

Vegeta looked at the fallen Nappa and thought incredulously.

"C-Could what that guy said be true? No! Impossible! How could I be surpassed by a low-class Saiyan warrior!"

"I've already defeated the two of them. Are you choosing to fight me, or are we ending this here?"

Son Goku asked.

Vegeta immediately laughed when he heard that.

"Isn't it obvious? Of course I'm choosing to keep fighting you! My strength is completely different from theirs!"

"Is that so?"

Son Goku replied calmly.

"Hmph!"

Vegeta snorted coldly, stomped hard against the ground, and charged at Son Goku.

Vegeta quickly rushed in front of Son Goku, his fists flying like the wind as he attacked.

Son Goku dodged from side to side while retreating.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that his attacks could not hit Son Goku, Vegeta suddenly raised his right leg and kicked at him.

Son Goku blocked with his left hand and quickly retreated.

"Damn it!"

Vegeta roared angrily, clenching his fists with immense force.

"Aah!!"

With a tremendous roar, a massive translucent aura immediately rose from Vegeta's body.

The surrounding ground shook violently under the influence of Vegeta's energy.

Large amounts of sand and rocks were thrown up from the ground and flew into the air.

Vegeta's energy also began rapidly rising at that moment.

After a while, Vegeta finished powering up and released the energy gathered around his body.

An astonishingly powerful gust of wind erupted, kicking up huge clouds of dust on both sides of Vegeta.

Son Goku remained calm after seeing this.

Although Vegeta's strength had increased somewhat, Son Goku's current strength had already far surpassed Vegeta's.

"Hah!"

With a loud shout, Vegeta shot forward like a cannonball, instantly arriving before Son Goku and throwing both fists forward with all his strength.

Son Goku raised his arms to block Vegeta's attacks while retreating.

Seeing this, Vegeta swung his right fist forward with all his strength, sending Son Goku flying with a single punch.

Son Goku stomped hard on the ground and quickly brought himself to a stop.

"Yah!"

Vegeta shouted as he fired a large number of energy blasts from both hands at Son Goku.

"What!"

Son Goku was startled and hurriedly raised both hands to block Vegeta's energy blasts.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!

Amid a series of huge explosions, Son Goku was struck by Vegeta's energy blasts, and thick smoke from the explosions quickly obscured his body.

"Phew..."

Seeing this, Vegeta immediately stopped firing energy blasts.

After a while, when the smoke on the ground dispersed, Son Goku stood completely unscathed in a deep crater left by the explosions.

"H-How could this be!"

Vegeta thought incredulously when he saw it.

Son Goku said, "Vegeta, you're no match for me. How about we stop here?"

"No match for you!"

Vegeta immediately flew into a rage upon hearing that.

He, the proud prince of the Saiyans, was actually being looked down upon by a low-class Saiyan warrior.

Thinking this, Vegeta immediately flew into the air. Purple lightning flickered around his hands as he gathered energy in the sky.

"Vegeta, what are you trying to do?"

Son Goku's expression changed slightly when he saw this.

If Vegeta fired an energy blast at Earth from that angle, Earth would definitely be in danger of destruction.

Vegeta immediately laughed when he heard that.

"Kakarot, have you finally learned fear? Just as you thought, I'm going to destroy you and the entire Earth together!"

"What!"

Hearing this, Son Goku immediately grew angry.

"Then don't blame me for not holding back!"

As Son Goku spoke, he brought his hands together behind him and began gathering energy.

"Kamehameha!"

A deep-blue energy wave gathered between Son Goku's hands.

"Galick Gun!"

At that moment, Vegeta finished gathering his energy. A purple beam shot from his palms toward the ground.

"Hah!"

Seeing this, Son Goku fired his Kamehameha at the Galick Gun.

Boom!!

With a violent crash, the two energy waves collided fiercely in the sky.

The ground beneath Son Goku's feet shattered, and the immense glow emitted by the two energy waves made it impossible to see the sky's true color.

"Damn it!"

Vegeta shouted angrily and pushed down with both hands at full force.

The Kamehameha was immediately forced downward.

"Yah!"

Seeing this, Son Goku immediately shouted and pushed Vegeta's Galick Gun back.

"W-What!"

Vegeta's expression changed drastically. It was already too late for him to dodge.

Boom!!

Vegeta was struck by the returning Galick Gun and blasted high into the air.

Rumble!!!

With a massive explosion, the Kamehameha detonated in the sky.

Vegeta immediately let out an incomparably loud scream amid the Kamehameha's explosion.

A large amount of smoke from the explosion quickly filled the sky.

After a while, when the smoke finally dispersed, Vegeta panted heavily. His Saiyan battle armor was severely damaged in many places, and he had suffered serious injuries in the explosion just now.

"D-Damn it!"

Vegeta looked at Son Goku standing on the ground with extreme unwillingness.

He had lost—and to the low-class Saiyan warrior he had looked down on the most.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared.

It was Roger.

Son Goku: "Roger!"

Roger nodded with a smile and looked up at Vegeta in the sky.

"Well, Vegeta?"

Vegeta snorted coldly and slowly descended from the sky.

"Roger, tell me, how did Kakarot become so strong?"

"It's simple—training!"

"Training?"

"Battle is one way to increase your strength, but that kind of improvement is far too slow. However, high-intensity training can greatly speed up your progress!"

"What kind of high-intensity training?"

Vegeta asked.

He desperately wanted to increase his strength, surpass Son Goku, and defeat Frieza.

"Gravity training!"

"Gravity?"

"If you can train under one hundred times gravity, your strength will definitely increase dramatically!"

"One hundred times gravity? You mean that kind of superpower of yours?"

"No, I mean the Gravity Chamber!"

"Gravity Chamber?"

After hearing this, Roger nodded and tossed a Senzu Bean to Vegeta.

"What is this?"

"This is a Senzu Bean. Once you take it, your injuries and stamina will be restored!"

"A Senzu Bean?"

Vegeta looked at the Senzu Bean in his hand and swallowed it.

Bang!

After Vegeta swallowed the Senzu Bean, his body swelled, and his stamina and injuries were immediately restored.

"This..."

Vegeta began to believe him as he looked at his healed body.

If he had Senzu Beans too, perhaps he could exploit the bug of Saiyans recovering from the brink of death each time to rapidly increase his strength.
