Time seemed to stand still for a moment.
The wind stopped, and the rolling gravel came to a standstill.
The world fell into a deathly silence.
The world, along with Son Gohan's pupils, lost its color!
Son Gohan's mind went completely blank for a moment.
Extreme shock and rage exploded deep within his soul.
The black pupils in Son Gohan's eyes had silently disappeared...
Instead, there was a cold, empty, unfocused crimson.
His body, which was already on the verge of collapse due to severe exhaustion and serious injuries, suddenly burst forth with a dazzling golden light at this moment!
boom--!
The oppressive silence was suddenly ripped apart!
An unprecedentedly terrifying aura surged from Son Gohan's body, piercing straight through the sky!
His hair stood on end, much taller than a typical Super Saiyan 2, but unlike Son Goku's Super Saiyan 3, it didn't reach his waist. His appearance was wilder and more aggressive!
Strands of ominous arcs of electricity, tinged with white amidst the golden light, crackled and swirled wildly!
But what's most chilling is the qualitative change in that energy!
Gentleness and rationality seem to have become extremely rare...
Saganbo, whose smugness had not yet faded, was taken aback by this sudden display of arrogance.
He lowered his head in astonishment.
What's wrong with these guys?
They're all like cockroaches that just won't die!
One second he was lying on the ground, barely alive, and the next second he was standing up as if nothing had happened?
As he watched the boy, covered in blood, slowly rise from the rubble, Saganbo's brows furrowed, and a ferocious expression appeared on his face.
"That pretentious little devil..."
This time, I'll make sure you never get up again!
Son Gohan did not respond.
He simply started walking, step by step, towards Saganbo's direction.
As the two drew closer, Saganbo's patience wore thin.
He impatiently stretched out his thick arm covered in black and purple magic, his five fingers forming a claw, and reached straight for Son Gohan's throat!
His outstretched hand was grabbed tightly halfway through!
Son Gohan neither dodged nor flinched; he simply raised his hand and easily grabbed Saganbo's wrist!
Saganbo's expression changed drastically!
What incredible strength!
Before he could react, Son Gohan's other fist had already torn through the air and was heading straight for his face!
Saganbo's pupils contracted sharply, and he could only hastily raise his other arm to block!
They were directly knocked back by that enormous force!
He steadied himself, shook his numb arms, and his face was filled with horror.
How could this brat's power... suddenly surge to such an extent?!
Before he could figure it out, Son Gohan's figure had already closed in again!
Two afterimages, one gold and one black, suddenly intertwined on the wasteland.
Fists and feet clashed, energy exploded, and each collision caused the earth to tremble violently, creating visible shockwaves.
The two have now entered a completely evenly matched contest!
Behind the distant mountain wall, Son Goku, who had barely recovered some of his strength, watched this scene in shock.
" Gohan..." Son Goku muttered to himself. He could sense that Gohan's ki was now far surpassing his own Super Saiyan 3!
Saganbo's attacks grew increasingly fierce, his claws whistling sharply through the air as he tore at Son Gohan's side!
Son Gohan completely ignored this attack, which was powerful enough to rip open a person's stomach!
He let the sharp claws tear through his flesh, drawing a string of blood beads.
At the same instant, he delivered a short and powerful elbow strike with his backhand, slamming it hard into Saganbo's sternum!
Click!
The sound of bones shattering was clearly audible!
"Ugh!"
Saganbo let out a muffled groan, a piercing pain shooting through his chest, and he was thrown backward by the blow.
He looked down at his sunken chest, then at the deep, bone-revealing wound under Son Gohan's ribs, his eyes filled with incomprehensible shock.
This reckless attitude caught Saganbo off guard for a moment.
Son Gohan was like a ferocious beast that had completely lost its mind.
"Don't get too cocky, kid!"
After being suppressed by a burst of violence, Saganbo finally regained his rhythm in his rage.
He bit his tongue hard, and a surge of pure primal magic exploded from his heart, forcibly unleashing all the power that Moro had bestowed upon him.
His muscles swelled violently at a visible speed, and an even more ferocious shockwave forcefully blasted away Son Gohan, who was clinging to him tightly!
"Submit obediently to Lord Moro's supreme power!"
Saganbo launched a furious counterattack!
His arms were enveloped in an intense, almost overwhelming aura of death, which transformed into two massive, jet-black axes. These axes clashed fiercely with Son Gohan's golden punch, meeting head-on without any fancy moves!
boom--!!!
The intensity of the battle reached its peak at this moment!
Just as both sides were fighting fiercely and suffering heavy losses.
In the void, another deep, dark hole quietly opened up.
A strange, cold, and suffocating aura seeped out, instantly causing the temperature to drop eerily in this raging, boiling battlefield.
A figure slowly emerged from within.
It's Seven-Three.
He surveyed the horrific battlefield expressionlessly, his gaze sweeping over the heavily wounded Son Goku lying on the ground, Piccolo who had lost both arms, and the few unconscious brats.
Finally, his gaze settled on Saganbo was panting heavily in mid-air, preparing to give chase.
" Saganbo, Moro's orders."
Seven-Three's monotone, lifeless, mechanical voice clearly resonated throughout the arena.
"Please evacuate as soon as possible."
Saganbo, who was about to rush down to deliver the final blow to Son Gohan, stopped his attack abruptly upon hearing Moro's command and immediately considered retreating.
For him, Moro's will was above all else.
He feinted a heavy punch, attempting to use the recoil from the energy collision to create distance and turn to escape towards the spatial wormhole.
However, he was tightly bound by Son Gohan and had no chance to break free!
Like a Son Gohan instantly appeared behind Saganbo, locking his hands tightly around Saganbo's ankles and pulling him down sharply!
They forcefully pulled him back from the edge of the wormhole!
Saganbo was shocked and enraged, and turned around to frantically unleash dozens of black and purple magic Ki Blast.
Despite the violent explosion, Son Gohan charged forward and delivered a bloodied punch that slammed into Saganbo's face, leaving him dazed and confused!
Seven-Three seems to have considered this issue as well.
The crystal on his forehead suddenly lit up, instantly transforming into Moro's goat-like face!
With outstretched arms, he instantly stirred up an energy tide across the entire Earth!
The vibrant life force surging within the earth's veins transformed into a visible stream of green light, which mixed with purplish-black demonic energy to form a massive, sky-covering energy tsunami that relentlessly swept towards Son Gohan!
The massive energy barrier forcibly cut off Son Gohan's pursuit.
Saganbo was finally able to escape.
He clutched his severely sunken sternum and awkwardly crawled into the nearby spatial wormhole.
Seeing this, Yunba below followed suit and crawled inside!
Seeing that his enemy was about to escape, Son Gohan forced himself to endure the excruciating pain of his skin being torn apart, preparing to break through the barrier of the energy tide, his body wrapped in dark red lightning, wanting to give chase!
But Seven-Three once again stood between the wormhole and Son Gohan.
He simply waved his hand dismissively.
An even stronger tide of energy continues to surge forth!
This energy not only stopped Son Gohan again, but also, along with Moro's domineering devouring mechanism, caused the power within Son Gohan's body to rapidly dissipate!
His life force began to diminish at a visible rate!
A violent surge of energy relentlessly struck his body!
The madness in Son Gohan's eyes gradually faded.
The dazzling golden flames on its body surface were completely extinguished.
His body, like a kite with a broken string, fell helplessly from mid-air.
Seven-Three stop.
He glanced coldly at the Earth warriors below, all of whom had lost their Power Level, then plunged into the closing wormhole and disappeared...
