Weakness

"Could this still not be your limit? Has Lord Ōten really surpassed Dad?"

Son Gohan exclaimed in shock!

"W-What... what kind of joke is this?"

"Can a Saiyan's power really increase this much? That big finale he mentioned has to be a bluff, right?"

Frieza's eyes were filled with apprehension!

Just then, Ōten's low growl sounded again. Almost at the same time, the earth began to tremble once more!

The entire planet shook violently. The terrifying hurricane made it impossible for everyone nearby to even keep their eyes open. It was practically like the end of the world!

"Raaaaah!!!"

The deep roar continued without pause!

The sky instantly filled with dark clouds, and the terrifying power emanating from Ōten surged straight into the heavens!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!

Countless white bolts of lightning swirled through the golden aura as dazzling light radiated from his entire body!

"S-So... so powerful!"

"Lord Ōten is actually this strong?!"

"He's unbelievably powerful! I never thought Saiyans could really reach this level!"

The immense pressure made Gohan take two involuntary steps backward!

The next moment, Ōten finally transformed into a Super Saiyan Four!

A red tail swayed casually behind him!

His hair had turned black, and red energy coiled around it. Red fur covered his entire body, which now radiated an overwhelming sense of power!

His face looked far more confident now!

"This is Super Saiyan Four, an entirely new form!"

Ōten said calmly!

Below, the Dragon Ball warriors were all staring with their mouths wide open!

They had never imagined Saiyans could transform like this!

This terrifying power, filled with an aura of destruction, was truly frightening!

"He's just too strong!"

"Gulp!"

Son Gohan swallowed hard!

Nearby, Golden Frieza was also staring in shock, his eyes wide!

"Damn it!"

"A Saiyan's ki can actually reach this level!"

Frieza's expression darkened the next moment, because Ōten's ki had already begun to surpass his!

If he'd known there was such a powerful Saiyan on Earth, he would have trained for a while longer before coming to take his revenge. Frieza was filled with regret!

"Let's continue!"

Ōten taunted Frieza again, beckoning him with a wave!

Frieza flew into a rage, veins bulging rapidly across his forehead!

"You overgrown monkey, don't get so smug!"

Enraged, he charged at Ōten at top speed!

The two clashed once again!

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

Ripples of energy from their collisions once again spread through the air!

They moved faster and faster!

"What kind of fight is this?"

"They're both as strong as monsters!"

Krillin murmured to himself!

Bam!!!

The two quickly separated. Frieza staggered as he steadied himself, while Ōten remained completely composed!

The next second, Frieza fired a terrifying Ki Blast from his hand. Ōten swept his arm through the air and knocked it away!

Boom!!!

The Ki Blast exploded high above!

Just then, Frieza suddenly appeared behind Ōten and slammed a fist toward him!

Ōten's expression remained calm. He grabbed Frieza's arm with both hands and, with a loud roar, flung him away!

Boom!!!

Frieza crashed into the ground, leaving a huge crater!

Light instantly flared across Ōten's palm. The next moment, countless Ki Blasts rained down below!

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

Loud explosions erupted across the battlefield, sending flames soaring into the sky as thick smoke billowed everywhere!

Krillin and the others were overjoyed. "That's great! We got Frieza!"

But Son Gohan and Piccolo still looked grim. They could both sense that Frieza's ki was faintly lingering!

Floating in the air, Ōten looked down at the devastated battlefield and chuckled softly. "Come on out, Frieza. You couldn't have been beaten that easily!"

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, a battered golden figure shot out of the ruins!

His face twisted with rage. "You miserable brat! I'll kill you!"

The next moment, Frieza unleashed a terrifying surge of ki. The fearsome energy gradually gathered above his head!

A massive golden energy sphere appeared over Frieza!

"Ohohoho! Disappear along with this planet!"

In an instant, he thrust both hands downward, and the golden energy sphere shot toward the ground!

Piccolo stared at the sky, drenched in cold sweat, and muttered, "Frieza's gone mad with rage. At this rate, Earth might cease to exist!"

Looking at the golden energy sphere's terrifying power, Ōten smirked. "This is the perfect chance to try out the Kamehameha I got from the check-in reward!"

The next moment, Ōten powered up, and his golden aura slowly began to rise!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"

"Kame... ha... me... ha... me... ha!"

A brilliant white-blue light began to shine from his hands!

Gohan cried out in surprise, "That's Dad's Kamehameha!"

"When did Lord Ōten learn that?"

Now Gohan and the others found Lord Ōten even more mysterious than before!

Ōten roared!

"Here it comes!!!"

A white-blue beam shot out with a howl!

Rumble!!!

The two terrifying forces collided, and in an instant, a fearsome shock wave spread outward!

The surrounding cliffs and trees were pulverized, while countless rocks flew up from the ground!

Son Gohan stared gravely at the clash in the sky and exclaimed, "Frieza really is so much stronger than before!"

"If Lord Ōten weren't on Earth, we'd be in serious trouble!"

Looking at the two forces locked in a stalemate, Ōten smiled. "Frieza's a little stronger than I expected, but that's about it!"

"Haaa!!!"

An even greater power surged into the Kamehameha, and the white-blue beam immediately drove Frieza's golden energy sphere back!

Frieza's eyes turned crimson!

"N-No way!"

Boom!!!

Frieza's entire body was swallowed by the terrifying beam!

A deafening explosion rang out in the sky, as flames filled the air like a dazzling display of fireworks!

Then thick clouds of dust rolled in!

"We won!"

"That's great! Lord Ōten won!"

Bulma jumped up excitedly!

As the dust slowly cleared, Frieza's golden figure appeared once again!

But he looked to be in terrible shape. He was clearly gravely injured, covered in wounds and utterly battered!

Frieza gasped for breath, glaring hatefully at Ōten, who stood smiling below!

"Damn it!"

"Why did I lose? I trained until I was strong enough! Why did I still lose?"

As Frieza roared in fury, Ōten's voice drifted over to him!

"Do you know why you lost?"

"Because you have two weaknesses!"

At this, Frieza furrowed his brow!

"Weaknesses? You're saying I have weaknesses? Ohohoho! You overgrown monkey, aren't you getting a little too arrogant? I'm the Emperor of the Universe. How could I possibly have any weaknesses?"

Ōten ignored Frieza's excuses and calmly continued, "Your first weakness is that you're too confident in your own strength. If you meet someone stronger than you, you'll be mercilessly destroyed!"

"Your second weakness is also the most fatal one: your stamina. Your training wasn't complete, yet you rushed over to get your revenge!"

"By now, you've already used up a great deal of your stamina. You have no chance of winning, Frieza!"
