Super Saiyan Great Ape!
The deafening, savage roar spread farther and farther.
As the Saiyan blood in Son Goku's body awakened, the last barrier protecting his reason seemed to shatter.
An immense will of bloodlust and brutality assaulted the last of Son Goku's reason, as though it meant to take complete control of him.
King Kai watched Son Goku's transformation from King Kai's Planet, his heart heavy and his face tense.
He knew Son Goku was using an entirely new method to break through the barrier blocking his path. In the current situation, even he, a King Kai, was powerless to help.
Son Goku could only get through this on his own. No one could help him.
Soon, under the stimulation of the Blutz Waves, Son Goku lost his human appearance and gradually began to take the form of a Great Ape.
His body swelled to a terrifying size, bursting through his clothes as thick black fur grew over his skin.
His enormous, wild body radiated a primal aura powerful enough to destroy everything. The terrifying pressure it gave off sent ripples through space itself.
Power of unimaginable magnitude erupted, and an ancient aura brimming with boundless destructive force swept across the globe, causing the entire planet to quake violently.
"Raaagh!!!!" Great Ape Son Goku's furious roar echoed through heaven and earth as his body continued to swell.
Ten meters... thirty meters... fifty meters... a hundred meters... He was still growing!
Only when he reached a height of over a thousand meters and became a super Great Ape towering into the clouds did Son Goku's Great Ape form finally stabilize.
Having completed his Great Ape Transformation, Son Goku's eyes were filled with brutality and bloodlust.
This did not look good.
Boom!! Boom!! Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!!... Countless deafening booms rang out through the air.
Great Ape Son Goku began pounding his chest over and over.
The brutal aura swirling around him continued to swell. With every blow to his chest, its terrifying waves of power sent considerable ripples through space.
Overcome by the savage urge to destroy everything, Great Ape Son Goku opened his enormous maw and gathered terrifying destructive energy within it.
The next second, a scorching beam of energy blasted from Great Ape Son Goku's mouth and struck the land. The terrifying energy tore the earth apart, warped space, and burned everything in its path.
The asteroid was nearly shattered by the terrifying attack. Blazing flames scorched the land across an area a hundred miles wide.
But that was not the end. Great Ape Son Goku seemed to have lost all reason, continually unleashing the savage power within him.
The urge to destroy had taken control of his mind, driving him to vent the power in his body instinctively. He pounded everything he could see around him with both hands.
Mountains, the land-he destroyed everything that came into sight.
The sight left King Kai trembling with fear as he watched from King Kai's Planet.
Great Ape Son Goku's destructive power was far too terrifying.
One could imagine how terrifying it would be if this happened on Earth. The entire planet would be destroyed, and no one could stop him.
Just as King Kai wondered when Great Ape Son Goku would stop destroying things, the ape, who had been continually venting his power on the asteroid, suddenly stopped.
The sight made King Kai's body jolt.
"Goku... has he taken control of his Great Ape body?" King Kai focused once more, calming himself as he watched.
On the asteroid, Great Ape Son Goku had stopped his rampage. Most of the brutal scarlet glow had faded from his eyes, and humanlike pupils could faintly be seen.
"Even though I've been through this once before, this Great Ape form is really hard to control. I nearly destroyed this planet." It was hard to believe that Son Goku could speak like a human in his Great Ape form.
This was a sign that he had gained complete control of his Great Ape form.
With the experience from his previous life, Son Goku quickly found a way to suppress the wild fury within his body.
He began to carefully sense the terrifying power inside him.
"Unbelievable. My power has increased this much in my Great Ape form."
"It's nothing like the tenfold increase Vegeta once talked about. Just my ordinary Great Ape form can rival my Super Saiyan Third Grade."
Entering the Great Ape form this time gave Son Goku greater insight.
In his previous life, when Baby, who had possessed Vegeta's body, had driven him into a desperate situation, he had entered the Great Ape form after receiving the Blutz Waves emitted by Earth. Back then, he had been completely berserk, with no conscious control.
If his granddaughter Pan's calls had not awakened him, he might have remained a rampaging Great Ape for the rest of his life.
Now that he could sense the power of the Great Ape form while retaining his self-awareness, he understood why he had been able to crush Baby with Super Saiyan 4 back then.
The power of his ordinary Great Ape form alone was enough to rival his Super Saiyan Third Grade.
That was without mentioning the Golden Great Ape form above it, which then transformed into Super Saiyan 4.
With his strength multiplied by hundreds of times or even more, there was no way Baby could have beaten him.
"Now that I've achieved the Great Ape form, the Golden Great Ape is next..." Great Ape Son Goku's expression grew solemn. Memories surged through his mind, and he sank into recollection.
Although he did not know how he had entered the Golden Great Ape form back then, one thing was certain: the Golden Great Ape transformation was inextricably linked to Super Saiyan.
If he transformed into a Super Saiyan while in his ordinary Great Ape form, perhaps he could enter the Golden Great Ape form directly!
Having figured this out, Great Ape Son Goku swiftly roused the power within his body.
In a single breath, terrifying energy swelled rapidly, and his howling aura became an unstoppable storm that reached the heavens.
The immense black malevolent aura rose steadily. After it reached its peak, Son Goku began gathering his strength again, activating the Super Saiyan energy pool within his body.
Guided by his will, Great Ape Son Goku's power rapidly converged at the center of his back.
The vast number of S-Cells in his body were stimulated, and a golden aura radiated outward from within, gradually replacing the black malevolent aura around Great Ape Son Goku.
"Rooooaaaar!!!!!" As the S-Cells pulsed, Great Ape Son Goku let loose a furious roar that shook heaven and earth and made ghosts and gods weep.
In an instant, the pressure capable of destroying heaven and earth turned into a shockwave that could overturn all things, blasting out in every direction.
The boundless pressure was terrifying beyond measure. Even Majin Buu, who had once struck fear into the world, was a tiny ant before this ancient power.
