The Ultimate Evasion, Ultra Instinct?!

That powerful, malevolent aura was directed at Son Goku.

Vegeta did this simply to test how much of a gap remained between himself and Son Goku now that he had been empowered by evil forces.

Whis stepped aside and became a bystander, making no attempt to stop the probing.

[The power of evil... Has Uncle Vegeta already mastered the ability to wield evil power freely in his normal state?]

[Such a powerful pressure...] Son Gohan felt extremely uncomfortable as he sensed this powerful, malevolent pressure.

In contrast, his father, Son Goku, was completely unaffected when swept by this evil aura.

He remained calm and composed, as if nothing had happened.

The powerful, malevolent aura that touched his body was easily dispelled by his invisible power the instant it reached him.

He smiled, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and in that instant, Vegeta moved.

The powerful strike, imbued with a vast amount of evil energy, broke through space and rapidly attacked Son Goku.

A loud 'bang!!!!'

Vegeta's powerful punch was easily blocked by Son Goku's right hand, dissipating all the impact.

Vegeta seemed to have anticipated the sudden attack being blocked by Son Goku, and was not surprised.

"As expected, you haven't remained unchanged over these three months, Kakarot." Vegeta's expression turned serious; he had confirmed his suspicions.

He completely concealed his movements during that attack; it was a silent strike.

Even if Son Goku could block it, it shouldn't be possible for him to be so fast and so precise.

"Hehe, you figured it out." Son Goku smiled calmly, making no attempt to hide it.

"Hmph!" Vegeta snorted coldly, withdrawing his right hand, his eyes flashing with a sharp, cold light.

"Fight me, Kakarot!!" Vegeta's eyes blazed with fighting spirit as he formally challenged Son Goku to a duel.

Looking back on their last duel, it was several years ago. Now, his strength is vastly different, and he won't be defeated by Son Goku so easily!

Moreover, he has been stuck at this level for some time and needs strong external stimulation to induce him to unleash his inner instincts and further activate his potential.

"To be honest, I guessed what you were thinking the moment we exchanged blows, and now I'm even more certain."

"Perfect timing, I didn't get enough of the fight with Gohan on Earth."

Son Goku, eager for a fight, accepted Vegeta's challenge.

He was also extremely curious about Vegeta's current strength!

As the two reached a consensus, the atmosphere became heavy.

Whis and Son Gohan decisively retreated outside the battlefield.

Whis took this battle very seriously because he had vaguely sensed something back on Earth: Son Goku seemed to have gained some understanding of what he had revealed three months ago.

Now, let's use Vegeta to test whether it's truly done.

As for Son Gohan, he was also on high alert at this moment, as this battle held special significance for him.

Although he was just an observer, he could still absorb the advantages of this battle to improve himself and elevate his understanding of the realm to a higher level.

On the battlefield.

Vegeta exuded an aura of evil, and soon, golden energy rose from the dark, malevolent light. In an instant, he completed the transformation into Super Saiyan 4: Supreme Evil Sublimation.

During this transformation, his aura did not leak out in the slightest, nor did it cause any spatial fluctuations; it all appeared perfectly natural.

He's a completely different person compared to three months ago.

"Transform, Kakarot!!" Vegeta shouted, his blood-red eyes fixed intently on every change in Son Goku.

"I've transformed, Vegeta." A mysterious smile appeared on Son Goku's face, his jet-black hair moved without wind, and a white, divine power emanated from his body.

"Hmm?!" Sensing the divine power emanating from Son Goku, Vegeta raised an eyebrow slightly, but didn't pay much attention.

This divine power isn't particularly strong.

But Son Goku's current form looks exactly the same as his normal state.

What kind of transformation is this?

[Has Kakarot developed a completely new form in just a few months?]

[That scorching God Ki, though not as strong as I am now, doesn't seem so easy to deal with either.]

Vegeta found himself in a bit of a predicament.

But soon, the fear in his heart was overwhelmed by a fervent fighting spirit.

In a flash, he made his move!

With a whoosh, a black light flashed past.

In his Super Saiyan 4: Supreme Evil Sublimation state, his instantaneous burst of speed is beyond imagination, especially at short distances, making it difficult even for a true God of Destruction to avoid.

But in those few milliseconds, Son Goku dodged Vegeta's attack with perfect form.

With his attack missing its mark, Vegeta seized the opportunity, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks imbued with a fierce, malevolent light, tearing through space and overwhelming Son Goku from all sides.

The fierce, evil light devoured everything in its path, tearing down at Son Goku like the maw of a demon.

But what they were seeing was unbelievable.

Son Goku's movements were as swift as a ghost, and every dodge and defense was so perfect and precise. Vegeta's attacks seemed fierce, but they did not harm Son Goku in the slightest.

[So fast!! No! It's not just fast!!] In their first encounter, Vegeta sensed something was wrong.

Son Goku's form appears unchanged, but his speed is strangely fast!

He decisively changed his battle strategy, abandoning close combat and leaping into the sky above the God of Destruction Realm. He raised his hands high, and dense energy blasts poured down like a storm.

Hundreds and thousands of energy projectiles covered the space, their density was outrageous.

"Take this!! Kakarot!!!" Vegeta mentally manipulated all the evil energy blasts, launching an all-encompassing attack on Son Goku.

But what happened next completely stunned him.

Son Goku shot out a beam of light from his hand, sweeping away all the evil energy blasts. At the same time, his agile figure swept through the space in countless elegant arcs, its perfection outrageous.

This scene left Son Gohan, who was watching the battle, dumbfounded, and Whis also showed a surprised expression.

"Uncle Vegeta's attack... was completely seen through by Dad?!" Son Gohan, his mouth agape in disbelief.

But Whis wore a thoughtful expression, and after a moment said, "That dodging movement, that extreme reaction speed... it seems your father has unknowingly mastered that thing."

"That thing?" Son Gohan, puzzled, looking at Whis with a questioning gaze, wanting a definite answer.

"Ultra Instinct," Whis said calmly.
