The relaxed smile on Son Goku's face gradually faded under Vegeta's death threat.
His expression turned serious!
His gaze sharpened!
A subtle sense of oppression began to emanate from him.
He slightly bent his knees and slowly clenched his fists at his sides.
"Haa--!"
With a deep roar, the power within him, which had been deliberately suppressed and dormant, erupted like a torrent breaking through a dam!
A violent white aura shot into the sky, raging and swaying wildly!
Its power was overwhelming, no less than Vegeta's burst of power just now, and even surpassed it in the solidity of its aura!
Suspended in mid-air, Vegeta felt the terrifying pressure emanating from below. His initially arrogant expression, which had been due to his superior position, gradually turned ugly.
In the distance, Piccolo stood with his arms crossed, wearing an expression that said, "I knew it."
Son Gohan, who was beside him, had been blown behind him by the sudden, terrifying gust of wind, only daring to peek out a little.
Son Goku looked down at his own fist.
He felt the pulsation of every muscle in his body, and the surging, powerful energy within him.
Then, he slowly raised his head and calmly looked directly at Vegeta, whose face was ashen.
"That's enough, Vegeta!"
Before he finished speaking, the ground beneath Son Goku's feet suddenly collapsed!
His figure vanished from the spot in an instant!
All that remained was a huge circular impact crater and a massive sonic boom ring that was visible to the naked eye and radiated outwards!
Vegeta whirled around as if on instinct, gathering all his strength in one powerful punch and slamming it behind him!
However, all the fist passed through was a slowly dissipating afterimage!
"Here!"
A flat voice, like a ghost, rang in his ear.
Vegeta turned his neck with difficulty, glancing to his side out of the corner of his eye.
Son Goku's figure had appeared beside him without him even noticing.
A simple, whip-like kick landed on Vegeta's waist and abdomen!
Vegeta was kicked so hard he was sent flying backward!
Driven by intense resentment, he unleashed his last bit of strength, forcefully twisting his body in mid-air to regain his balance.
He waved his hands wildly, leaving behind blurry afterimages.
It's the " Prince's Tactics " blocking the road again!
He simply can't keep up with Son Goku's speed!
We absolutely must not let him get close!
This is what Vegeta was thinking!
Countless Ki Blast exploded out!
They blocked all possible routes for Son Goku to pursue them from all directions, trying to buy themselves even a second of breathing time!
But when faced with a dense barrage of Ki Blast that could level a mountain, Son Goku neither dodged nor avoided them!
He charged straight up into the destructive energy storm!
Before even encountering the Ki Blast, Son Goku unleashed a massive aura that prematurely detonated the Ki Blast in front of him!
Vegeta was only momentarily distracted.
Son Goku's figure had once again broken through the barrier of the Ki Blast and appeared before him!
Vegeta's mind went blank; he could only watch helplessly as the fist grew larger and larger in his field of vision!
He instinctively raised his arms, crossed them in front of his chest, and made a final block!
This time, Vegeta's arms cracked under the strain!
He was sent flying backwards again, like a kite with a broken string!
The battles that followed... no, they gradually ceased to be battles at all!
Vegeta's attacks failed to effectively thwart Son Goku's attacks, while Son Goku's counterattacks always inflicted excruciating pain on Vegeta!
The longer the battle dragged on, the more desperate Vegeta felt!
completely!
There's absolutely no chance!
There is absolutely no hope of victory!
His pride as Saiyan Prince ultimately couldn't be regained through the Hell training...
Instead, he was utterly crushed by Kakarot!
Now, Vegeta has finally begun to question himself during the battle!
Is he... really a Saiyan genius warrior?
Is this guy in front of me really a so-called Low-Class Warrior?
Why is it that even though he's tried so hard, he still can't surpass this Low-Class Warrior?!
For the first time, he felt confused about the definition of genius!
However, Son Goku did not stop attacking because of his confusion!
After a sustained barrage of attacks, Vegeta gradually lost the ability to resist!
With a swift chop, Son Goku precisely sliced Vegeta in the back of the neck.
Vegeta's vision went black, and his body instantly lost all strength, falling helplessly to the ground like a rag doll.
Son Goku managed to catch Vegeta's limp body just in time.
He looked around and found a relatively flat boulder, where he carefully placed Vegeta.
After doing all this, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
Not far away, Piccolo led Son Gohan slowly over.
As soon as Son Gohan saw his father, he immediately broke free from Piccolo's grasp and hurriedly ran over on his short legs.
With a "bang," the little head bumped directly into Son Goku's thigh.
Son Gohan looked up at his dusty little face, his big eyes filled with worry and unease.
"Dad..."
He asked softly in his childish voice:
"Did you... beat this uncle to death?"
Upon hearing this, Son Goku was completely stunned.
He immediately realized what was happening, couldn't help but chuckle, and reached out to ruffle Son Gohan's soft black hair.
He explained.
"That's not true, Gohan."
"He was just too tired and temporarily passed out."
"And he should wake up soon."
Hearing his father's explanation, Son Gohan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense little face relaxed.
Curious, he approached the boulder, extended his little finger, and cautiously poked Vegeta's tough Battle Suit before quickly withdrawing it.
"That uncle was so fierce just now..."
Just then, Piccolo walked up to him.
He said nothing, just stood there with his arms crossed, staring intently at Son Goku.
Son Goku felt uncomfortable and somewhat embarrassed under his gaze.
What are they doing?
"What's wrong, Piccolo?"
Why are you looking at me like that?
His eyes darted around, and his voice sounded somewhat weak.
Piccolo glanced at the somewhat guilty-looking Son Goku and couldn't help but let out a cold snort.
"Did you really go all out in the battle against Vegeta?"
"Huh?" Son Goku was taken aback, hesitated for a moment before hurriedly responding.
"Of course!"
" Vegeta has gotten a lot stronger. I don't think we can defeat him unless we go all out!" Son Goku subconsciously scratched the back of his head.
"Heh, since that's how it is, let's fight again once you've recovered!"
