Bang!!!

The ground collapsed, and the rock beneath his feet instantly sank nearly a hundred meters, like the gaping jaws of a colossal beast swallowing everything whole.

At the same instant, an apocalyptic aura of destruction descended heavily, enveloping the entire Divine Martial Battle Star.

At that moment, whether it was Xuesaiya, Xuesaili, Jiyande, and other top experts, or the most ordinary Saiyan warriors at the very bottom, all felt as though they had fallen into an icy abyss, as if Death itself had arrived before them.

Barros, in the midst of his transformation, suddenly swept his cold gaze across the desolate wasteland around him.

"Ah—!!!"

A roar from ancient times exploded forth, seeming both a declaration to this unfamiliar universe and a horn announcing the return of a king.

Before the roar faded, his grass-green long hair underwent another transformation—it shifted from green to a blazing, brilliant gold. Even stranger, his sword-like brows turned a blood-red crimson.

Emerald-green eyes, brilliant golden hair, blood-red brows—

At this moment, Barros resembled the supreme emperor of Super Saiyans, returned from the dawn of creation and standing above all ages.

He stood above both ordinary Saiyans and Legendary Super Saiyans, yet had not entered the realm of Super Saiyan God—a unique existence precisely between the two.

Boom!

The golden flames shooting into the sky swelled once more, as if paying homage to the birth of a new emperor.

An incomparably vast imperial pressure, mixed with a destructive aura that made the stars tremble, instantly blanketed the Divine Martial Battle Star.

"Zzz—zzz—zzz—"

The air around him let out sharp shrieks, as though those golden flames were burning the very heavens and earth.

Brilliant golden hair, blood-red brows, emerald-green eyes.

As the surging power within him slowly settled, Barros finally completed the dual ascension of body and spirit, reaching an unprecedented pinnacle.

Super Saiyan!

He slowly opened his eyes. His jade-green pupils were bone-chillingly cold, as indifferent as a deity looking down upon ants, yet also like a supreme king gazing disdainfully upon all living beings.

"Super Saiyan?" A trace of indifferent mockery flashed through his eyes.

Though this form was not Super Saiyan God, it already possessed its divine essence. It not only surpassed ordinary and Legendary Super Saiyans, but was also the ultimate form born from Saiyan bloodline returning to ancient origins and being tempered to its utmost limit.

An ordinary Super Saiyan increased battle power fiftyfold;

A Legendary Super Saiyan increased battle power a hundredfold;

And this brand-new form of his, one that had opened a new era and had never been seen in the world—

Its battle power increased by as much as two hundredfold!

When all one hundred and eight acupoints throughout his body had been fully opened, Barros's battle power settled at 13 million.

After breaking through the shackles of his physical body, his power surged to 15 million.

And once he switched into this unprecedented Super Saiyan form...

His battle power—had soared to a staggering 3 billion!

Super Saiyan—a newly evolved Super Saiyan form, with the terrifying figure of 3 billion.

"Ha—ha—ha—ha—ha—ha!"

A wild burst of laughter suddenly rang out, shaking the heavens and echoing across the skies of the entire Divine Martial Battle Star, from where the Imperial Hall had once stood.

For more than ten years, Barros had deliberately suppressed the leakage of his ki, immersing all his mind in the grueling body-tempering cultivation of Dragon Elephant Prison Suppression. Today, he had finally crossed the threshold into Super Saiyan.

Even more astonishingly, from the moment of his first transformation, he had already surpassed ordinary Super Saiyans and even Legendary Super Saiyans.

Though he still did not know what mysteries and power this realm truly contained, that two-hundredfold rise in battle power alone

was enough to let him crush his way across the entire Dragon Ball Universe.

Frieza? King Cold? Cooler? None of them posed a threat any longer.

For someone thoroughly familiar with the Dragon Ball power system, Barros could gauge at a glance the level of opponents he could crush at this moment:

An ordinary Super Saiyan gained a fiftyfold boost; Super Saiyan 2 was twice as strong as the former; Super Saiyan 3 was another four times stronger than Super Saiyan 2.

In other words, this newborn form of his firmly surpassed Super Saiyan 2 by a full level.

With his current power, let alone in the present universe, even if placed in the later stages of Dragon Ball—aside from Majin Buu and Super Saiyan 3 Goku, even Dabura, King of the Demon Realm, would be unable to withstand a casual strike from him!

The other characters were even less worth mentioning.

However, this universe was extraordinary after all.

Although Barros was confident that he could now sweep through all directions and reign supreme over the Dragon Ball world, he also knew that this was only temporary—the beings truly standing at the pinnacle had yet to appear.

If the powerful characters from the movies were included as well, his current strength probably would not even rank among the top ten.

But growth had always been his natural state.

And this form was far from the end.

If he could continue unlocking Super Saiyan 2, 3...

Even with a mind as still as an ancient well and a will as unyielding as black iron, the thought of that scene still ignited a blazing yearning in Barros's eyes.

Just as he calmly sensed every change in his new form, the violently rising aura in the distance finally began to subside.

Although an unfathomable, suffocating pressure still lingered where it had been, Xuesaiya, Xuesaili, Palanti, Jiyande, and the others still flew rapidly toward him.

They wanted not only to witness Barros's transformation with their own eyes, but even more urgently to know—just how much had his battle power increased with this leap?!

Before they even landed, whether it was the Xuesaiya sisters, Palanti, or top-tier Saiyans like Jiyande and Meisu, all of them immediately saw the solitary figure standing between heaven and earth, his sharp aura seeming capable of cleaving the sky apart.

His body was wrapped in blazing golden flames, his black hair completely transformed into dazzling gold, and his brows dyed blood-red, as though he had been given another soul, completely transformed into a different existence.

Every Saiyan's heart trembled in unison—

that ancient legend, buried away for countless years and privately dismissed by them as nonsense, was now standing alive before them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As if their thoughts had been confirmed, Xuesaiya took the lead, and everyone instantly dived down, landing before Barros together.

"Barros, you..." The moment she steadied herself, Xuesaili spoke anxiously.

Before she could finish, Barros, who had been regulating his breath with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and looked directly at her.

In that instant, the cold pierced to the bone, like a god lowering his gaze and indifferently sweeping over countless ants.

If she could choose again, Xuesaili would rather wait for him to speak first than endure that glance.

She knew Barros would not hurt her, yet at the instant their gazes met, she felt as though she had offended divine majesty and was about to fall into an eternal hell, unable to breathe.

Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!

The sounds of throats swallowing rose one after another.

Barros's gaze had not even fallen upon Jiyande and the others, yet the instant he opened his eyes, they felt as if they had been locked onto by a primordial beast. Their minds shook violently, chills ran down their spines, and none of them dared raise their eyes to meet his gaze again!

Dead silence. Absolute silence.

He had not spoken a single word. He had merely glanced at Xuesaili, yet this group of fearless Saiyan warriors who roamed the stars had all fallen silent, their fighting spirit completely shattered.

It was not that Jiyande and the others were cowards—

under that gaze, the battle power they had been so proud of, power enough to shatter planets and destroy worlds, could not give them even the slightest confidence.

It was as if all their strength had been drained away in an instant, leaving only mortal flesh to face indescribable divine might—

how could they not be afraid?

Xuesaiya's heart also tightened slightly, but Barros was her own flesh and blood.

After a moment of silence, she stared at his dazzling golden hair and crimson brows, her emerald eyes narrowing slightly as she softly asked:

"Barros, this... what is this?"

If he had not been the child she carried for ten months, if she had not personally witnessed his day-and-night cultivation over the past decade or so, if not for the faint yet never-broken bond of blood between mother and son—

Xuesaiya would never have believed that the man before her, carrying himself like a god, wreathed in golden flames, every gesture seeming capable of changing heaven and earth, was actually her son, Barros, whom she had raised with her own hands!

Barros naturally understood what Xuesaiya and Xuesaili truly wanted to ask.

The corners of his lips lifted into a calm smile as he nodded lightly.

He had mentioned Super Saiyans to Xuesaiya, Xuesaili, and the others more than once before.

Now that his appearance had suddenly changed and his battle power had increased geometrically, it was only natural that they would immediately think of that legend.

As Barros gave a slight nod, Xuesaiya's pupils suddenly contracted, and her heart jolted. "Barros, you... you really became a Super Saiyan!"

He did not answer, merely curling his lips slightly—the dazzling golden hair, brows red as congealed blood, and eyes green as icy pools had already said more than a thousand words.

"E-Emperor, you... you..." Jiyande's Adam's apple bobbed, his voice tight as he stared fixedly at Barros's blazing golden hair, flame-red eyebrows, and abyssal green eyes. His heart churned violently, leaving him nearly speechless!

"Super Saiyan? The legendary Super Saiyan who appears only once every thousand years is really standing before us, alive and well!"

"Emperor, you've truly entered the realm of the Super Saiyan!"

"Emperor, is this the legendary Super Saiyan?"

The moment Jiyande finished speaking, the Saiyans all spoke up at once. Their eyes burned as they looked at Barros, the longing in their gaze so fierce it seemed capable of scorching through the air.

Super Saiyan was a myth engraved into the very bones of the Saiyans—only one emerged every thousand years, the supreme glory dreamed of by generations of warriors.

Yet ever since the Saiyans had moved to Planet Vegeta, no one had ever reached that realm again.

This pinnacle, once pursued through countless generations, had gradually come to be seen as an illusory old dream, buried beneath the dust of history. Few even spoke of it anymore.

Though Barros's own blood was surging with excitement, he was even more eager to gain control over the immense power coursing through this newly reborn body.

The overwhelming sensation that he could crush galaxies with a mere raise of his hand made him impatient to exhaust every last bit of the Super Saiyan's potential.

Unlike Goku and the others, the universe posed no obstruction to Barros.

He could cross the void in his flesh-and-blood body, race freely through the boundless cosmos, and unleash the Super Saiyan's limits without reservation!

With a thought, Barros vanished abruptly, disappearing completely from before Xuesaiya and the others in the blink of an eye.

BOOM!!

The ground, already collapsed for a hundred meters, shattered once more when he kicked off from midair, blasting open another enormous crater a hundred meters deep—

He tore through Divine Martial Battle Star's atmosphere and shot straight into the vast universe.

He did not immediately erupt with his battle power, seeking only to quickly determine the boundaries of this terrifying strength.

He pressed two fingers together and lightly touched them to his forehead. Space rippled, and his figure vanished without a trace, instantly leaving Divine Martial Battle Star's orbit.

The next instant, Barros's figure suddenly appeared on the surface of an ordinary planet in the South Galaxy.

With a single thought, he crossed an entire galaxy—only then did he truly grasp the essence of "Instant Transmission": wherever the heart desired, he could travel through the sea of stars, with galaxies passing beneath his steps.
