Chapter 238 Battling in the space

Previous ChapterNext Chapter


“I didn’t expect a Super Saiyan to really exist. The legend passed down by the ancestors wasn’t wrong. It seems that Frieza was killed by you.” Looking at the person not far away whose entire body was emitting a golden burning aura, King Cold’s face looked stiff, his voice rueful, and he was also feeling astonishment.

Xiaya nodded and smiled, “You are much smarter than Frieza. At least you recognize my identity. Even until Frieza died, he didn’t think that I was a Super Saiyan. He thought I was an ancient warrior created by the Feidaya people! ”

“Frieza, that fool, I had long ago warned him to kill all the Saiyans as soon as possible. He didn’t take it seriously. Now, it has finally led to a disaster!”

Hearing him, King Cold slightly frowned and secretly cursed in his heart, and then his expression turned solemn as he prepared to defend.

According to the ancestral teachings passed down from the Frost Demon race’s ancestor Chilled, as long as they saw any Saiyan, they should kill them as soon as possible. However, after numerous years passed, King Cold’s family forgot about the warnings, and Frieza had even gone against the ancestral teachings and accepted Planet Vegeta’s Saiyans as subordinates. Today, when he saw a Super Saiyan suddenly appear, King Cold felt as if his heart was being smashed by a hammer; he had finally begun to see his errors.

But due to the confidence in his own strength, King Cold still did not realize that his life was already being threatened.

King Cold’s Battle Power in Final Form was about 450 million. It was naturally many times stronger than Frieza’s, but it was still lacking when compared with Cooler’s Battle Power. Xiaya looked at him with seriousness as the Spirit Eye secret skill presented him his opponent’s situation.

“Although my strength is above King Cold’s, the advantage is not very big.” Xiaya inwardly thought.

At a higher level of combat, 480 million Battle Power and the 450 million Battle Power, although it may seem to have a difference of 30 million, if actually reflected in strength, this small amount of difference was not as big as it might have been thought. During a fight, the ability to react, and how well you exhibit your strength on the spot also play a crucial role; both of which may affect the final outcome.

Therefore, even though Xiaya knew that his Battle Power was above King Cold, he didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless while facing King Cold. A fight was fast-changing. If you don’t control the tempo, it was not impossible to meet with an unexpected failure.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The golden burning aura raged, and an electric light suddenly flashed in Xiaya’s transparent green eyes before his body moved like lightning.

His movements were extremely fast because he had space-time ability to assist. He moved back and forth in the vacuum environment like a fish in water. Within a 1/10000th second, countless blurry afterimages connected.  These afterimages were scattered all over the place in the deep outer space, and every dot was just placed right as if done via meticulous calculations. At this moment, a golden starlight spread out in the huge network, locking King Cold firmly in the middle.

As far as he could see, only golden shadows that looked either real or unreal could be seen.

King Cold looked tense, and his cold cheeks were twitching.

Although he couldn’t understand his opponent’s actions, King Cold knew that the strength of the Super Saiyan in front of him was not less than his. Facing the enemy’s move, he could not remain indifferent and allow his enemy to act, so King Cold responded quickly. His arms began to twirl rapidly, swinging at an incredible speed. A large blue energy wave was formed by squandering his seemingly inexhaustible energy, and soon, as if the calm surface of a lake suddenly caved in, a great wave of energy rose.

“Ice Energy Wave!”

With a fierce and loud shout, more than a hundred energy rays suddenly appeared in front of King Cold’s body, and like a huge energy dragon that had surged out of the abyss, roaringly whistled ahead. Then it entangled in a complex geometric diagram, forming a powerful and dynamic energy zone.

Upon seeing this, Xiaya frowned. King Cold went on the offensive and cleverly neutralized his attack. Facing King Cold’s attack, he also quickly responded.

His two palms joined together, and a golden energy surged out.

Rumble!

The blue energy and the golden brilliance met, but there was no expected earth-shattering scene. They both fiercely trembled, like the annihilation phenomenon which occurs after positive and negative matter encounter each other. After which, a fiery red fireball slowly rose, the blazing high temperature noiselessly melted away all the matters in the starry sky, and then space expanded, spreading in all directions.

It was a spheroidal dispersing wave faintly visible to the naked eye, and just like transparent water droplets, it spread towards the depths of the universe.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

Xiaya suddenly stepped forward, leaving a blurry afterimage in his place; he disappeared silently, and then reappeared near King Cold.

Fast!

King Cold turned pale with shock. However, King Cold was, after all, an old guy who had lived for several hundred years. After the brief surprise, he quickly calmed down, and his body, before his brain could react, instinctively launched an attack.

Pfff!

A strong punch smashed towards Xiaya, but it went straight through Xiaya’s body.

“This is an afterimage!”

He didn’t receive the feeling of a fist hitting a solid object. King Cold instantly understood that his attack had failed, so he turned around and surveyed his surroundings vigilantly.

“Here!”

Another strong punch shot out; however, the attack had unfortunately failed again, yet this time not only was King Cold not dismayed, instead, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled upward.

Bang!

The white and muscle-covered arm suddenly withdrew, and the tail behind him moved as though it was a fifth limb.

Thump!

There were no sounds of vibrations as light distorted, and Xiaya’s body suddenly flew out.

He immediately spread out his two arms, and a energy cyclone formed, stopping his body in the space as if it was a large net, quickly eliminating the kinetic energy of his body. Xiaya coughed out a mouthful of blood; his spittle in the vacuum environment quickly curled up into bead-shapes.

“Good!” Xiaya stared at King Cold, his face revealing a smile, then he laughed wildly, and the blazing aura around his body burned even more. Soon, Xiaya again started fighting with King Cold.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Two people, one white and one gold, fiercely collided after a short pause. Both of them threw out dazzling energy waves, causing explosions to occur as if a planet had exploded. In a flash, the entire galaxy was stirred up, and the massive planets in the distance were affected by the energy storm and began to slowly deviate from their original orbit.

During the battle, both Xiaya and King Cold kept moving at a very high speed in the starry sky before colliding in 1/10000th second. After fiercely fighting, they quickly separated again. In just a few seconds, the two people had already fought countless times.

Hualala!

A sparkling and beautiful figure moved through the vast expanse of the starry sky. As he had already learned Planet Metamor’s Vacuum Technique, the space environment was no longer the shackle that affected Xiaya in exhibiting his full strength.

“King Cold, receive my move!”

Xiaya suddenly stopped and moved back by some distance. Then, he fiercely pushed both of his palms forward, and a huge energy wave that was emitting a white-blue radiance shot out from his palms with unparalleled power and momentum, before it whistled towards King Cold in the distance.

“Super Saiyan, you have made a mistake!”

King Cold weirdly laughed and didn’t receive the energy wave. Instead, his body swayed and agilely dodged out of the way like a viper. Then, he brushed past from above the Energy wave and launched a counterattack against Xiaya.

In an instant, King Cold came above Xiaya’s head, and then he raised his arm high, turning over his palm into a blade and chopped down; a sparkling and shining radiance flashed across Xiaya’s head.

Whoosh!

King Cold once again despaired as Xiaya’s figure again turned out to be an afterimage.

But just as King Cold was looking around for the enemy’s position, that afterimage suddenly erupted out with a golden glow, and rapidly attacked King Cold who was very close.

Planet Metamor martial art — virtual and real change!

“Tri-Beam!”

Xiaya shouted, and both of his palms made a triangle shape.

Suddenly, a bright white energy fiercely shot out in the shape of a triangle. In such a short amount of time, King Cold had no time to react. He broke out with cold sweat on his back as the formidable Tri-Beam appeared in front of him, and before he could resist, he was engulfed by the chaotic storm.

Tri-Beam was one of the powerful techniques developed by Master Mutaito.

Afterward, it was passed on by Master Mutaito to one of his two disciples, Master Shen, and then taught to Tien Shinhan by Master Shen. Due to its enormous power, it was extremely exhausting to use, and the Thunder Shock Surprise that was passed down to Master Roshi was similarly Master Mutaito’s secret technique.

In the original work, after passing down Thunder Shock Surprise and Tri-Beam, Master Roshi and Master Shen worked hard and spent countless years, finally developing their own school’s unique skills — Ka Me Ha Me Ha and Dodon Ray!

In the early days, the Tri-Beam technique had a great hidden danger due to its consumption of stamina. It was only after it was upgraded by Tien Shinhan that it really developed into a master-level trick.

And with Xiaya’s current level, the Tri-Beam he developed naturally had assimilated the essence of the original Tri-Beam, abandoning its limitations. Its power was a lot better than in the original work. King Cold had suffered the attack at such a close range, even if he did not die, he would be half crippled.

Sure enough, when the strong shock wave dissipated, King Cold, who appeared in front of him, could only be described as a tragic sight.

The originally white as snow skin was torn, revealing gaping flesh, and it had been scorched black. One of his arms powerlessly hung down, and from its twisted appearance, it could be seen that it had become completely crippled. There was also a large depression on his chest; the sturdy and thick muscles on his bones were scorched by the burning energy and were shedding off his body. His beating heart could also be faintly seen hanging down.

    • Yes and no. They actually explained how paradoxes work in the actual Dragonball story. If someone time travels or otherwise alters the time lime then rather than erasing the timeline that was altered, it instead creates a completely separate timeline that the gods occasionally cull. This is also why time travel is so taboo. So if Frieza went back in time and destroyed Earth, the Earth in the timeline he traveled back from would still exist, but a timeline where it didn’t would also exist.

      Xiaya’s existence started a separate timeline and any actions he takes don’t retroactively alter reality.

        • Yep, some “other” Bardock lived out those moments, meanwhile the Bardock that stayed behind with the Hongshan Saiyans in this story never got to spread the legend in another timeline. This type of time travel happens in X-Men (and other Marvel comics) a lot. It’s based on the principle of how for every choice you make there’s another version of reality where you made a different choice. At least I think that’s what it is? Quantum physics and stuff? I might be getting several things mixed up.
