Inside the Gravity Chamber.
After mastering the Humanoid Great Ape Power, Son Gohan's own spirit grew even stronger, and he awakened from that state of enlightenment.
Upon opening his eyes, he found Piccolo standing directly in front of him.
"You felt it too, didn't you, Gohan!"
Piccolo was not wearing his cape, but the fighting spirit in his eyes was incredibly clear.
"Yeah, they've finally arrived!"
A trace of intense fervor flickered in Son Gohan's eyes as well.
"Arrived? Who has arrived?"
Raditz, who was crawling arduously on the ground, heard the two speaking and his eyes filled with contemplation.
He had served as a sparring partner for the two of them every day and had learned a thing or two about controlling his ki, but because he still hadn't adapted to the current gravity, he had no energy to spare for other concerns.
However, that did not stop him from yearning for the salvation that was about to come.
He had endured humiliation and carried a heavy burden on this planet for the sole purpose of waiting for his two companions to arrive.
When that time came!
As long as he could hold out until then!
He would be able to return to his team, roam the universe once more, and enjoy the thrill of battle to his heart's content.
When the time was right, he could take his nephew with him, and that green-skinned Earthling would definitely get a brutal beating!
"Your companions have arrived!"
Piccolo saw right through Raditz's thoughts. He sneered and said, "If you want to go and join them, be my guest!"
He said that, but his aura was clearly surging and boiling.
Raditz had been beaten by Piccolo enough times to naturally understand that there was a hidden meaning behind the words; he even felt that if he dared to admit it, he would be gutted by the other man once again.
"What are you talking about? My nephew and my brother are both on Earth; why would I think about anything else!"
A desperate desire for survival forced the upper-level warrior to utter such words.
"You'd better mean that!"
Piccolo let out a cold snort, then immediately turned off the gravity setting of the chamber and said, "Prepare for battle. Let's show them the fruits of our training!"
Although he knew that a guy like Raditz would never be obedient.
But after all, he was Gohan's biological uncle, and he didn't want to kill him again in front of Gohan.
Moreover, he was very confident in his current strength; even if the opponent really did try to pull something, he could take care of him at any moment.
Over there, Son Gohan also looked at his uncle. He helped him up and said, "Uncle, come along with us. It's a good chance to see the results of our training."
Raditz was naturally willing in his heart.
Son Gohan and Piccolo had originally intended to have Bulma test their combat power one last time.
But at that moment, they clearly sensed those two auras approaching Earth, so they quickly changed their clothes and prepared to rush to the battlefield.
Before setting off.
Son Gohan first checked the messages on his phone.
Back when they had some leisure time during their training, he had proposed the idea to Aunt Bulma to help improve their life at home, which led to the early development of the smartphone era and the creation of a chat app called Spirit Message.
To make it easier to contact the other warriors, he had set up a group in advance and, with Bulma's help, added Krillin, Yamcha, and the others.
Now that the battle was imminent, he naturally had to give them a heads-up.
However, just as he opened the Spirit Message app, he saw that messages had already been sent.
[Anti-Saiyan Resistance Chat Group]
[Protecting Earth (Krillin): Just received a notification from Mr. Popo saying that the Saiyans have entered Earth. Everyone, stay alert!]
[Crane School Orthodox Successor (Tien Shinhan): So they've finally arrived. The results of a year of training have truly manifested. I hope we can hold off that group; at least until Goku arrives!]
[West City's Strongest Combatant (Yamcha): Everyone is very motivated! I've trained hard this time too. Let's all work together and show those aliens what we're made of!]
[Protecting Earth (Krillin): Good luck, everyone! And don't be the first one to lose this time!]
Seeing that everyone was prepared, Son Gohan didn't say anything more.
He tucked his phone into his pocket.
"So that group has been training too, though it's pointless. This time, I will handle the invading Saiyans by myself!"
Piccolo had clearly seen the messages in the group, but he maintained his "Demon King" persona and didn't participate.
"Understood. I'm heading out first, Uncle Piccolo!"
Son Gohan had already sensed the Saiyans descending onto Earth, and he knew that Nappa would soon be raising his two fingers, so he didn't hesitate any longer.
His figure soared rapidly into the high sky, and in an instant, he exploded with ki and took flight.
Piccolo and Raditz followed closely behind Son Gohan.
In a city near West City.
The bald, muscular giant looked around with a playful smirk on his face.
He then pressed his index and middle fingers together, his entire body's power beginning to erupt as he prepared to wipe the surrounding area clean.
The people nearby saw this strange man pointing his fingers downward, yet they remained oblivious to what was about to happen, still pointing and whispering at the two of them.
Boom!
As Nappa thrust his fingers upward, the surging aura around him prepared to explode.
At that moment, however, a brilliant energy blast suddenly came crashing down.
The immense power instantly tore through the aura surrounding Nappa and slammed heavily into his chest, causing the energy he had gathered to dissipate completely.
Immediately after.
Nappa was pushed far away by the energy blast, completely unable to resist.
He then landed heavily in an area outside the city.
A violent explosion rang out in the distance, and smoke and flames surged into the sky, forming the shape of a mushroom cloud.
This sudden turn of events happened so quickly that the surrounding citizens did not even react.
They did not realize they had just walked the line between life and death.
Even Vegeta, who had come with Nappa, could not remain calm. Although he had seen the person who fired the energy blast, he had not expected the power to be this strong; Nappa was, after all, a warrior from a prestigious background, yet he could not even take a single hit.
According to the information Raditz had sent back, there should have been no such experts on Earth!
So, what exactly was going on?
A faint sense of unease rose in his heart, and he stared intently at Son Gohan, who was dressed in a purple martial arts uniform.
When he saw the brown tail behind the boy, a look of realization dawned in Vegeta's eyes, yet he still found it hard to believe: I see, this is Kakarot's son. But according to the data from Raditz, his combat power was only 1307. How is this possible...
He knew Nappa's strength, and naturally understood that a combat power of 1307 could not possibly hurt him.
Yet, the boy had just blasted Nappa to a place far away.
This meant his strength had undergone a world-shaking change.
However, for the Saiyan race, there shouldn't be such massive growth at this age. Even he, who was hailed as the greatest genius in Saiyan history, only saw a significant leap in combat power after reaching adulthood.
This low-class warrior's brat was only four years old—far from the time for a leap in combat power!
Could it be... could he be...
As these thoughts raced through Vegeta's mind, he recalled a legend among the Saiyans, and a surge of shock gripped his heart: The legendary Super Saiyan!?
