Let Me Show You Something Good, the Great Ape Power of Tenfold Kaioken!

Son Goku and Piccolo beside him did not hesitate either.

In an instant, they followed suit, launching an attack on Slug alongside Son Gohan.

The shadows of their fists rained down on Slug like a sudden downpour.

In less than a breath, Slug had already taken no fewer than several thousand punches, his body forcibly staggered backward.

His once-confident eyes were now filled with rage.

Ever since gaining that power, he had never encountered a situation like this.

Especially now that he had obtained true ultimate power!

"Damn it—"

Unable to retaliate under the three men's barrage of punches, Slug's fury surged, and the power within him erupted even more violently.

Whoosh!

A powerful current of air burst out from his body.

He was clearly planning to use his aura to drive the three away before launching a counterattack and showing them the true power of the King of the Great Universe.

And that exploding aura truly was powerful. In an instant, it directly blasted Krillin and Mr. Popo, who had been watching from the side, away.

"Ahh, why is it always me..."

Krillin had still been hesitating over whether to join the fight when the dark-red air current suddenly swept him up, sending his body tumbling helplessly into the distance.

He was completely dumbfounded.

He had only been watching from the side, so why was he the first one to get hit?

Mr. Popo, who had been sent flying alongside him, had the same question.

But Mr. Popo was still immersed in the grief of losing Kami. He had no further reaction and simply let his body drift like a wisp of fluff in the wind.

Aside from those two, Son Gohan continued the fierce assault alongside Uncle Piccolo and his father.

As each of them pushed the force of their punches to the limit, they scraped against Slug's erupting aura, scattering vast showers of sparks through the air.

The entire temple continuously exploded beneath that blazing light.

It then broke into countless chunks of floating stone that hung in the air.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Slug's aura continued to rise as he bared his teeth.

Under the surging pressure of that intense energy, Piccolo's fists could no longer inflict any effective damage and were even forced back again and again by the aura.

This was clearly no longer a battle he could take part in.

Before long, even Son Goku, using tenfold Kaioken, was pushed away by the increasingly powerful air current.

Only Gohan remained able to keep throwing punches!

"That Gohan..."

Piccolo stood atop a shattered floating rock, his arms crossed to withstand the fierce aura crashing toward him, his gaze fixed on Son Gohan the entire time.

He was incredibly curious about how Gohan had grown so strong.

That kid had trained under him before. By all rights, no one should have understood his strength better than Piccolo, yet what Gohan was displaying now was completely different.

Not far from him, Son Goku, with tenfold Kaioken activated, had adopted a similar stance.

His expression was equally astonished. He had noticed before that Gohan was different, but he had never expected the kid to be this strong.

That Namekian who looked so much like Piccolo was already absurdly powerful.

Yet Gohan looked even stronger now!

And when had Gohan learned Kaioken? Son Goku remembered that he had never taught it to him. Could the kid really have learned it just by watching him use it?

Everything that had happened today was completely wrong.

In the distance, Son Gohan and Slug's auras continued their violent clash.

Slug's dark red energy constantly ground against Son Gohan's crimson aura.

Even the sky seemed to split apart, while the temple had already been completely destroyed. Only the ground beneath Son Gohan and Slug remained intact.

"A Saiyan can actually fight me to this extent?"

Slug had already unleashed his full strength, yet he still could not evade Son Gohan's attacks. The realization filled him with immense shock.

His power at this moment had already far surpassed his former peak.

It should have been enough to sweep away everything before him, yet it was being stopped by this Saiyan brat. He had read Kami's memories—this kid should not have been this strong.

This... was very wrong!

Son Gohan's expression remained cold and stern. He had also seen Slug's increase in power; his strength had probably reached a level comparable to Frieza at full power.

Originally, Slug had been nowhere near this strong.

Although King Kai had called him someone who might surpass Frieza and the Super Saiyan.

In truth, he had been far from possessing such power. After all, he had been beaten senseless by Pseudo Super Saiyan, then destroyed by a Spirit Bomb similar in scale to the one used against Vegeta.

Even if one exaggerated, his battle power being sixty million would already have been impressive.

But the current Slug clearly possessed far more power than that.

After all, Son Gohan was currently using both Humanoid Great Ape Power and threefold Kaioken.

That power should have far surpassed the giant Slug from back then, yet against this Slug, he could only gain a slight upper hand.

And Slug should still have his giant form in reserve!

If this guy truly unleashed all his power, it would probably be difficult for him to defeat him.

Yet when he considered that possibility, he only became more excited, as though the Saiyan blood within him were boiling.

"Tenfold—Kaioken!"

Without any hesitation, Son Gohan immediately raised Kaioken to tenfold, the limit he could currently use.

Because the Humanoid Great Ape state was relatively stable, he could stack Kaioken on top of it.

But even for him, tenfold Kaioken placed immense pressure on his body!

That was why he had not used tenfold Kaioken from the start.

Whoosh!

The crimson aura around him surged in an instant.

Son Gohan's blood accelerated, and his aura skyrocketed wildly, overwhelming Slug's aura in the blink of an eye.

"What?"

Extreme shock flashed through Slug's eyes.

But in the next moment, he felt his abdomen rip open. An incomparably violent force instantly crushed through his aura before spreading throughout every part of his body.

When he looked down, he discovered that the child with spiked-up hair had already punched through his abdomen. Terrifying power spread from the boy's arm, enveloping him completely.

The Saiyan child before him suddenly raised his head.

His golden eyes, wrapped in red light, looked cold and grim.

Son Gohan slowly pulled back his arm, then retreated half a step.

"I, the mighty King of the Great Universe... How could I..."

Slug seemed to foresee something. He desperately tried to move his body, but every part of it was covered by Son Gohan's aura.

Even moving a finger was incredibly difficult.

"Demon Flash!"

Having retreated half a step, Son Gohan swiftly stacked his hands against his forehead. The technique he had learned from Piccolo gathered in an instant, transforming into a terrifying beam that crushed through Slug's body.

The powerful blast rapidly pulverized Slug along with the final fragments of the temple.

The blazing light swept away the floating clouds for dozens of miles.

The sky immediately turned a spotless blue.

And the sole golden radiance gradually faded away at Gohan's will.

Whoosh!

The crimson aura wrapped around Son Gohan flickered before rapidly dissipating. He slowly clenched his fist, then looked toward the direction the beam had swept through.

"Damn it! I'm being beaten by a mere Saiyan, a mere Saiyan!!!"

A furious, terrified roar came from the distant sky.

The core that had not been completely destroyed reconstructed his body.

An aura swelled there, far surpassing the one from before. Dark crimson light spread out once again, filling the entire sky in an instant.

Slug's Planet Namekian body in the distance also began to grow enormous at this moment.

Looking toward the distance, Son Gohan let out a soft sigh. Though he had expected the other party's regenerative ability to be greatly enhanced after assimilation, seeing that this attack had failed to destroy him still left him somewhat disappointed.

But he quickly adjusted his state.

Since tenfold Kaioken combined with Great Ape Power was not enough, then he would see whether he could become a Super Saiyan here!
