Babidi: I Have General Dabura, Who Can Slay Super Saiyans!

Just as Shin and the others were talking, Son Goku's battle with the Magic Beast Yakon had already reached a fever pitch.

Son Goku looked at the slightly panting Yakon across from him and said disappointedly, "I already know how strong you are. What a letdown. I'm done playing."

"What?!" Yakon glared viciously at Son Goku. "You bastard, how dare you look down on me!"

Elsewhere.

Seeing the Magic Beast Yakon struggling in battle, Babidi's expression darkened. He immediately raised a hand and activated his magic...

Just as Son Goku was about to take down the Magic Beast Yakon, the space around them suddenly twisted before turning pitch-black!

"What's going on?"

Son Goku looked utterly baffled and muttered, "Why can't I see anything all of a sudden? What a pain."

Son Gohan was somewhat alarmed as well. "Supreme Kai, what's going on?"

Shin explained, "This is Babidi's magic. He transferred us from Earth to Dark Planet."

"What? That little guy can do something like that too? Then how are we supposed to get back?" Son Gohan asked anxiously.

"It's just a minor trick. Once we defeat the Magic Beast Yakon, we'll naturally be able to return," Shin explained.

Son Gohan immediately relaxed. "I see. Then that's a relief."

Elsewhere.

Relying on his advantage in vision, the Magic Beast Yakon tried to sneak-attack Son Goku, only to be taught a harsh lesson by Son Goku's fists... no, taught how to be a beast.

After getting thoroughly beaten up, the Magic Beast Yakon looked completely bewildered. He asked in shock, "Y-you can see?"

Son Goku shook his head. "No, but who says you can't fight just because you can't see with your eyes? Besides, there are plenty of ways to see clearly."

"For example..."

The corners of Son Goku's mouth rose as energy surged from his body. With a hum, his entire body began to shine with golden light—he had transformed into a Super Saiyan!

The golden light drove away the darkness of Dark Planet and illuminated the surrounding area.

Babidi stared wide-eyed at Son Goku's golden, glowing figure in the crystal ball. "S-such astonishing energy!"

Turning his head, Babidi said to one of his subordinates, "Q-quickly... bring me the highest-grade energy detector!"

"Yes, Lord Babidi!"

Before long, the subordinate brought over the highest-grade energy detector. Babidi lowered his head to look at the reading displayed on it, his mouth falling open in disbelief. "3,000 Kili! That Earthling actually has 3,000 Kili of energy? How is that possible?!"

Dabura frowned. "3,000 Kili? That is indeed astonishing energy. Strange. I investigated Earth before, and there shouldn't have been anyone that strong on the planet then."

Babidi gritted his teeth. "But the reality is that someone like him has appeared! Damn it, Yakon is in danger. He only has 800 Kili of energy. There's no way he can be a match for that enemy!"

Looking at the golden, glowing Son Goku, the Magic Beast Yakon curled his lips into a smug smile. "Idiot!"

As soon as he spoke, the Magic Beast Yakon opened his mouth wide, and an enormous suction force poured out of it!

Son Goku froze, because the golden glow around his body was actually being sucked toward the Magic Beast Yakon!

Hum~

Son Goku dropped out of his Super Saiyan state.

"Strange. What's going on?" Son Goku looked puzzled.

Patting his belly with a satisfied expression, the Magic Beast Yakon explained, "Idiot, I can even eat light itself. Your energy was the most delicious and plentiful meal I've ever had. I really want another taste."

Son Goku suddenly understood. "I see... Since you want to eat so badly, I'll let you eat your fill!"

As soon as he spoke, energy surged from Son Goku's body, and he transformed into a Super Saiyan once again!

"Fool, no matter how many times you try, the result will be the same!" The Magic Beast Yakon sneered as he opened his mouth again and absorbed the light energy from Son Goku's body.

Son Goku remained calm, a faint smile on his lips. Then his expression hardened, and with a shout, the energy throughout his body exploded forth. He even actively sent the energy into the Magic Beast Yakon's mouth!

The Magic Beast Yakon had been happily devouring Son Goku's energy when a massive amount of energy suddenly forced its way into his stomach. Pain filled his face as his body rapidly swelled up, and then... Boom!

The Magic Beast Yakon's body exploded from the inside out, blasting into pieces!

With the Magic Beast Yakon dead, the passage to the third underground level opened automatically.

Seeing this.

Everyone came to the entrance, jumped down, and arrived at the third underground level.

Vegeta looked toward Son Goku, his gaze grave... In that instant just now, Kakarot's energy had surpassed his!

Thinking of this, Vegeta looked at the Supreme Kai again. This guy wasn't lying! Kakarot really is stronger than me... But he shouldn't be that much stronger!

Feeling Vegeta's gaze, Shin smiled. "Mr. Vegeta, I already told you that your current strength is far inferior to Mr. Son Goku's. At your current level, strength can no longer be measured by numbers. The gap between you is an absolute difference in realms."

Hearing that.

Vegeta was startled, then immediately came to his senses. Damn it! I forgot this guy can read minds!

Hearing Vegeta's thoughts, Shin smiled faintly.

Son Gohan exclaimed in admiration, "Is that so? As expected of Dad, he's amazing!"

Son Goku scratched his head awkwardly, then cautiously observed Vegeta. Seeing the other man's face as dark as thunder, he unconsciously looked up at the sky, feeling extremely uncomfortable, as though he had been caught cheating.

"Hmph!"

Vegeta snorted unhappily and glared at Son Goku. "Kakarot, I admit that you're indeed stronger than me right now, but it won't be long before I catch up to you! The strongest Saiyan will always be me. You remember that!"

Son Goku's awkward expression turned serious. He nodded. "Yeah, I understand, Vegeta."

The group talked for quite a while, but the Door Opening in the room remained shut.

Growing impatient, the eager Son Gohan shouted at the tightly closed Door Opening, "Hey! It's my turn next! Hurry up and open the door!"

"H-how is this possible?!"

Babidi looked panicked as he stared at the energy detector in his hand. Though it had only lasted for an instant, the energy reading on the detector had indeed exceeded 4,000 Kili!

"Th-that Earthling... His energy exceeded 4,000 Kili in an instant, and only for an instant at that. This means that Earthling's energy is far above 4,000 Kili. Otherwise, he couldn't possibly control such immense energy so freely!"

At this point, Babidi was completely panicking. He muttered, "Damn it! How could someone this strong exist on Earth? Conservatively speaking, that Earthling's energy is at least above 4,500 Kili!"

Dabura reassured him, "Lord Babidi, please stay calm. It's only 4,500 Kili. Don't forget that my energy exceeds 5,000 Kili. With my strength, I can easily kill that Earthling."
