" Piccolo?"
Deep in the pit, almost losing consciousness, Son Goku's dim vision was rekindled the moment he saw the familiar figure atop the ruined building.
He instinctively exclaimed in surprise, filled with both relief and disbelief.
Vegeta, standing beside him, also endured the excruciating pain in his chest, using all his strength to prop himself up with one hand on the rubble and lift his head with difficulty.
When he sensed that calm yet powerful aura emanating from above, he was far from calm.
How, how is that possible!
This is infuriating!
That guy... how did that guy even do that?!
Vegeta's heart pounded wildly.
"Mr. Piccolo!"
Not far away, Tapion was also seriously injured and unable to even stand up, saw who it was and a flame of hope rekindled in his eyes.
On the other side of the ruins.
Standing atop the massive statue of Hirudegarn, Hoi's previously manic and smug smile vanished the moment Piccolo appeared.
He narrowed his eyes dangerously, sizing up the tall figure in the white cloak, his face quickly revealing deep disdain and mockery.
"How come another guy has suddenly appeared looking for trouble!"
A piercing, eerie laugh escaped Hoi's throat.
" Hirudegarn! No matter who comes, kill them all!"
Hehehe...
With his excited command, in mid-air, the dark red perfect Phantom Majin Hirudegarn suddenly raised his head and let out a deafening roar!
The next second, its enormous body instantly transformed into a cloud of black mist!
The black mist shot straight towards Piccolo at an uncanny speed!
The air along the way was corroded by that pure evil energy, making a piercing "sizzling" sound, and even the space itself rippled.
Facing the terrifying black mist that rushed towards him, capable of swallowing everything, Piccolo showed no fear.
He simply raised one hand and gently removed the heavy white headscarf from his head.
With her other hand, she tore off the pure white cloak that was fluttering in the wind behind her.
He casually tossed his headscarf and cloak into the ruins below.
boom--!!!
The two seemingly light and airy garments emitted a terrifying roar, like a meteorite falling, the moment they touched the ground!
The hard ground was smashed into two bottomless craters, and the violent impact kicked up clouds of dust!
At the very moment the clothes left his hands,
Piccolo immediately twisted his neck left and right, making a cracking sound, and then his figure vanished from the spot!
When he reappeared.
In the sight of Son Goku, Vegeta, and even Hoi, there was now a Namekian size was large enough to look at Hirudegarn eye level!
In that instant!
Just as Piccolo's body rapidly expanded and transformed into a giant!
His originally emerald green skin was briefly covered by a thick, ancient orange glow!
This splash of orange came quickly, and went quickly too.
It happened so fast that everyone thought it was just an illusion.
But Piccolo himself could clearly feel the unprecedented, overwhelming, and terrifying power within his body!
Piccolo stared at the rapidly approaching mass of black mist.
Just as Hirudegarn dispelled his intangibility, a massive, dark red, materialized fist emerged from the black mist, slamming towards his face with an aura of annihilation!
Piccolo, just as straightforwardly, threw a punch!
Boom--!!!!!!
Two enormous fists, each the size of a mountain, collided head-on in mid-air!
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
Immediately afterwards, a visible, extremely dense white ring of energy exploded from the point where the two fists clashed!
The violent shockwave transformed into a destructive storm comparable to a Category 10 hurricane, sweeping wildly in all directions!
The surrounding ruins were as fragile as paper in the face of this force, and were instantly uprooted and then completely shredded into dust by the gale in mid-air!
The vast, desolate land was plowed open by this force, creating waves of earth hundreds of meters high!
Amidst the raging winds.
Piccolo and Hirudegarn, these two enormous bodies, were simultaneously thrown backward by this terrifying recoil force!
Two enormous feet plowed two bottomless, terrifying trenches in the ground, stretching to the horizon before finally managing to steady themselves.
Smoke and dust filled the air.
The entire Planet Konats was plunged into a deathly silence.
His proud, so-called "perfect Phantom Majin " was actually defeated head-on in their very first encounter by a guy who appeared out of nowhere, using the most primitive and savage methods!
The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.
Piccolo and Hirudegarn, two towering giants, faced each other across the ravaged earth.
That oppressive, suffocating atmosphere foreshadowed that a truly earth-shattering battle had only just begun.
