"Oh?"
Android 18 paused, a hint of seriousness entering her eyes.
She could tell that his power was different from their last encounter. This time, he was almost her equal.
"What happened to this kid?"
The next second, Son Gohan charged ferociously, golden aura blazing around him.
Android 18 grew solemn and met his attacks one after another.
Their clashes thundered, and the shock waves tore up the surrounding streets, leaving great craters and shattered pavement.
Meanwhile.
In the ruined alley.
The smoke cleared, revealing the aftermath of the explosion.
A figure stood there with both arms raised in front of him. Behind him were Trunks and Mai, their eyes closed.
"Xia Le!!"
Trunks opened his eyes, then cried out excitedly when he saw the figure before him.
"Mm."
"Trunks, take your little girlfriend and get out of here!"
"Leave this to me."
At that, Xia Le turned toward the continuous explosions on the other side.
"And Gohan."
Trunks nodded firmly. "Okay! Xia Le, make sure you're careful."
"Don't worry!"
Xia Le smiled.
Then his gaze shifted to Android 17 ahead.
"It's you!"
A flicker of surprise crossed Android 17's eyes as he spoke with a chuckle.
Xia Le tilted his neck from side to side, making it crack, then grinned.
"Since we've run into each other, let's have a proper fight!"
"I'm curious whether you can give me my fill today!"
He grinned, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
At that moment, the instinct for battle unique to Saiyan blood stirred and boiled.
"Your fill?"
"An ant like you dares to be that arrogant?"
Android 17 sneered.
But in the next second, Xia Le vanished from before him.
Dust swirled into a whirlwind over the spot where he had stood.
Whoosh!
Almost instantly, Xia Le appeared behind Android 17
