Seeing that his battle power was 2.7 million, Son Gohan was somewhat surprised.
Although he had been undergoing extremely harsh training these past days, according to his own senses, without exploiting the near-death recovery bug, his final base battle power should have been around five or six hundred thousand.
In other words, the Grand Elder's potential unlock had directly raised him by over two million.
The results of that unlock were indeed absurdly powerful.
But considering that the Grand Elder had even damaged his own life force at the time, Son Gohan could understand it. That Grand Elder must have sensed that he was Namek's hope, which was why he had spared no effort in drawing out his power.
But if he had not given the Grand Elder a little nourishment afterward, the Grand Elder might have reported to the afterlife today.
[Opponent successfully matched] [Matched Opponent: Slug] [Introduction: Born on Namek, but unlike ordinary Namekians, he possessed an evil heart and was wicked by nature. He also possessed power far beyond that of ordinary Namekians, and could be called a Super Namekian. He grew up on Planet Slug and began rampaging across the universe from there. Later, he proclaimed himself the King of the Great Universe. Now, he was already old and frail. Originally, he had intended to use the Dragon Balls on Earth to regain his youth, but it seemed that he had received some sort of help. He was now continuously searching the universe for Namekians to assimilate, and each time he assimilated a Namekian, he became younger and stronger!]
"?"
Seeing the newly matched character, a huge question mark seemed to appear over Son Gohan's head.
Of course, he knew of the Namekian called Slug.
He was also a movie character, a powerhouse King Kai considered comparable to Frieza. After transforming into a Super Namekian, he had nearly slaughtered his way across Earth, and in the end, he too had predictably died beneath a Spirit Bomb.
But this Slug was clearly different.
What was this about becoming younger by assimilating Namekians? Ordinary Namekians did not have such an ability. This was obviously cheating!
At the same time, he became certain that the opponents matched by Lightning Flash were all abnormal.
The previous Turles had been a reincarnator, and this time Slug could assimilate others to become younger. The opponents matched in the future probably would not be ordinary either.
Fortunately, he was no ordinary person himself.
A reincarnator + Gohan Who Doesn't Study!
Then let's see who would come out on top in battle!
The next instant, he felt the scenery around him rapidly change. When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to Mount Paozu.
The surrounding scenery still looked just as familiar.
A familiar message appeared in Son Gohan's mind, informing him that the original Son Gohan had been transferred to a special space. Just like last time.
The instant he landed, he swiftly sensed the surrounding auras, clearly trying to determine how far the plot had progressed.
At that moment, he sensed an immensely powerful force descending from the sky.
It was the aura of a Namekian, but compared with an ordinary Namekian, it was far more evil.
"Looks like he hasn't fully arrived yet!"
Having sensed that aura, Son Gohan roughly inferred the timing. Slug's spaceship probably had not completely descended yet.
But judging by the distance of that aura, it was not actually that far away.
He then sensed the aura of his father in this world.
Then he floated into the air and instantly shot toward the distance. Perhaps because he was moving too quickly, powerful winds swept through every place he passed.
In the distant sky, Son Goku and Krillin were hovering in the air, staring at the asteroid about to descend upon Earth. They were preparing to use a Kamehameha to push the planet back.
"I can sense life on it."
Son Goku frowned as he looked upward, then reminded him, "When you attack later, just make sure to alter the asteroid's course. There's no need to destroy them completely!"
"I know."
As Krillin spoke, he had already begun gathering energy. They had to push that asteroid away to prevent Earth from facing destruction.
But they still did not know that the lifeforms inside were invaders.
"Kamehameha—wave!"
Brilliant light flared from both of their palms at once. The bright energy waves swiftly merged together, then slammed viciously into the asteroid beyond the atmosphere.
Rumble!
Under the bombardment of an energy wave powerful enough to push a star, the asteroid that had been about to crash down paused for a moment.
Son Goku and Krillin confidently withdrew their hands, believing they had already stopped the world-ending disaster.
Yet the asteroid above immediately hurtled toward them with even greater force.
The abrupt, rapid collision arrived in an instant, leaving Son Goku and Krillin no time to react. The two were about to be struck directly by the asteroid.
Just then.
In the distance, another Kamehameha flared to life.
The immensely powerful energy wave slammed into the asteroid, instantly altering the force acting on the spacecraft and sending it flying diagonally in another direction.
But just as the asteroid's trajectory was about to change, a white glow emanated from it, as though it were resisting the Kamehameha.
Yet it lasted only an instant.
The next moment, the asteroid was pierced straight through by the Kamehameha, then fell directly downward along the blast's path.
Son Goku and Krillin had both been prepared to take the planet's impact.
Neither of them had expected such a turn of events.
They both turned to look into the distance and saw Son Gohan there, confusion immediately flashing through their eyes.
Clearly, they did not understand why Gohan had come.
And according to their memories, Gohan should not have fought like this either.
BOOM!
The small planet was pushed into the atmosphere, where it exploded.
As flames spread across the sky, countless figures sprang out, scattering wildly in every direction like locusts.
"How could this be...?"
Although Krillin and the others could sense life within it, their eyes were still filled with confusion when they saw countless people flying out.
Son Gohan took that opportunity to arrive beside them.
He was not sure how much stronger Slug had become. To be safe, he had decided to join forces with his father and the others from this world.
Son Goku was studying Gohan now. He found it strange—he could clearly sense that this was Gohan, yet he also felt that he was completely different from usual...
Naturally, Son Gohan knew that he behaved differently from his counterpart in this world.
But there was no time to explain much right now.
He looked toward the distant figures and quickly said, "Dad, Uncle Krillin, that's an alien spaceship. They came here to conquer Earth!"
Surprise first appeared in Son Goku's eyes, but he soon nodded solemnly.
He could sense an extremely evil power within it as well.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Five piercing sounds rang out in succession, followed by five figures rushing over. Every one of them looked bizarre and grotesque!
"These guys look a lot like the ones Piccolo spawned!"
Son Goku clearly found them somewhat familiar.
"You dare attack the spaceship of the King of the Great Universe? You truly don't know whether you live or die!"
Kaguja, the wizard-like leader, coldly stared at them. Fury blazed in his eyes, as though he wanted to tear everyone before him to pieces.
"King of the Great Universe? What do you guys want?"
"Since you destroyed the King of the Great Universe's spaceship, this planet will become his new vehicle instead. You people should prepare yourselves to accept the King of the Great Universe's rule!"
As he spoke, the others had already spread out and surrounded the three of them.
"Haah!"
Son Gohan's expression hardened, and a powerful aura instantly exploded around him, blasting the five demon clansmen who had been preparing to encircle them far away.
His figure flickered like lightning as he caught up to them in an instant.
First, he punched straight through the wizard-like Kaguja. Then he spun and kicked backward, crossing dozens of meters in an instant to strike Dorodabo directly.
After that, he spread both hands, and two energy waves swallowed Medamatcha and Zeeun!
