At their first clash, Goku was sent flying backward.
Cooler's strength had now reached an unbelievable level.
Even as a Super Saiyan 2, Goku fell slightly short of him in raw power.
Bam, bam, bam, bam!
Streaks of light flashed across the sky.
They were the two fighters, clashing as they moved at blistering speed.

His Ki had vanished completely. He had probably gone straight to
