Buzz—
A blinding white light burst forth!
The power of destruction swept across the heavens and earth, plunging all things into silence!
"Urgh—!"
Vegeta let out a muffled groan. An immense, boundless force surged from his arm through his entire body. Numbness overtook his mind in an instant, his aura abruptly collapsed, and he fell uncontrollably toward the shattered ground...
Boom—!
The already cracked ground was smashed open once more by Vegeta's meteor-like fall, carving out a deep trench hundreds of meters long. The farther inward it went, the deeper it became—a terrifying sight!
"Huff... huff..."
Vegeta lay within the deep trench, the golden light around him already gone. His aura was in disarray, and his chest rose and fell without pause.
With difficulty, he opened one eye and looked up at Son Gohan, who floated quietly overhead with an upright posture and high spirits. A faint, gratified smile appeared on Vegeta's lips before his head tilted aside and he lost consciousness.
Son Gohan slowly descended from the sky. His aura remained calm and steady, the white glow around him clear and pure. Even that terrifying collision from earlier had failed to disturb his breathing in the slightest.
The difference in strength was obvious. The victor had been decided!
The gale sweeping through the Supreme Kai Realm gradually subsided, and the dust filling the sky slowly settled.
Son Gohan withdrew his aura and looked at Vegeta lying unconscious in the trench. Somewhat embarrassed, he scratched his head. "I think I might've hit a little too hard."
Clap clap clap~
Crisp applause suddenly rang out.
Son Gohan froze, then turned around to see Shin standing silently behind him at some unknown point.
"Supreme Kai."
Son Gohan bowed respectfully.
Shin nodded gently, a warm smile on his face as he praised him.
