The two ascended simultaneously, leaving the platform of the Lookout. Only after reaching an altitude of a hundred meters did they finally stop.
The two stood at the same height. Vegeta once again transformed into his Super Saiyan Full Power form.
However, unlike before, he made no effort whatsoever to restrain his aura. The instant he transformed, a violent aura surged across the sky like a raging flood. Fierce storms overturned everything in their path, impacting all directions.
The reason he released his aura so recklessly was simply a way for Vegeta to showcase his powerful strength—a small tactic meant to intimidate Goku from the very start.
Although the effect was minimal and it consumed a bit of energy, that amount of expenditure was practically negligible to Vegeta.
The battle could not be lost, and his style must be fully maximized!
“What an impressive aura. But there’s no need to use these little tricks on me, Vegeta.” As Goku spoke, a sharp gleam flashed through his eyes.
A powerful aura erupted from his body like a world-devouring tornado of destruction.
The destructive auras bursting from both of them collided with one another, tearing through the sky and shaking space itself. Only after ten full seconds did they finally dissipate and calm down.
After this first clash of auras, both of them gained a rough understanding of each other’s strength.
Vegeta had anticipated this battle for a very long time and had prepared for it for many years. Goku was the same.
Today’s battle would not end until one of them had completely fallen.
Everyone on the Lookout platform watched the scene with complete concentration.
They were also curious about how this battle would conclude.
Would the victor be Goku?
Or Vegeta?
“Take this, Kakarot!! This time I’ll wash away my humiliation!!” Accompanied by a loud roar, Vegeta made the first move. His entire body erupted with an imposing aura as he charged toward Goku like a bolt of thunder. The domineering fist carrying the full power of his body shot straight toward Goku’s face.
Seeing this, Goku immediately responded. With a raise of his arm, he threw a punch of his own to meet it head-on.
BOOM~~!!!
The instant their fists collided, powerful shockwaves burst outward in all directions, causing space itself to tremble repeatedly.
After exchanging that punch, both of them were blasted backward simultaneously by the recoil of their own strength.
Vegeta quickly stabilized his body and launched another attack. Bringing his hands together, he continuously fired energy blasts, subjecting Goku to a carpet bombardment.
Faced with the incoming barrage of consecutive energy blasts, Goku rapidly powered up. His body moved through space like a phantom, weaving around at incredible speed and perfectly avoiding every single one of Vegeta’s attacks.
“Hmph! I’d like to see how long you can keep dodging, Kakarot!” Vegeta said. A flash of golden lightning crossed his eyes, the muscles in his arms swelled, and the number of energy blasts he was firing instantly doubled.
“Vegeta, you…” While evading, Goku felt the frequency of Vegeta’s attacks increase and immediately found himself under tremendous pressure.
Once Vegeta entered a battle state, he fought like a madman. His style was one that would never stop until he completely crushed his opponent in one relentless assault.
Faced with such an overwhelming offensive, Goku felt immense pressure. He was even careless for a moment and had his training clothes torn by a grazing ki blast.
Left with no choice, Goku immediately placed two fingers of his right hand against his forehead and used Instant Transmission to appear behind Vegeta. Gathering an energy blast in his right hand, he thrust it toward Vegeta’s back.
“Instant Transmission?! I’d almost forgotten you could do that!” With his battle instincts stretched to their limit, there was no way Vegeta would let Goku succeed. He immediately condensed an energy blast of his own in response.
BOOM!!!!!!
The energy blasts exploded. Flames surged outward, shockwaves expanded, and both of them were blasted backward over a dozen meters before finally managing to stabilize themselves.
“You actually reacted to that? Looks like I underestimated you, Vegeta.” Goku’s eyes narrowed in surprise.
He could even react to Instant Transmission? Just how sharp were this guy’s battle instincts?
His improvement was honestly a little excessive.
“Such little tricks are useless against me. Stop embarrassing yourself with them, Kakarot.” Vegeta was inwardly delighted. The corners of his mouth rose as he once again assumed his classic fighting stance.
“Looks like Instant Transmission won’t have much effect on you. In that case, I’ll have to choose another fighting style. Let me show you the improvements I’ve made to my combat techniques. This was developed specifically to deal with you.”
The smile vanished from Goku’s face, replaced by intense seriousness. Golden aura erupted around him as he also assumed a classic fighting stance.
This was the completely new Turtle School combat style he had perfected after nearly two years of training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
The fight earlier had merely been a warm-up. What came next would be the real thing.
“Hmph!! Then let me see it for myself! Don’t just talk big!” Vegeta sneered.
The next second, both of them erupted with excited battle cries at the same time.
Their bodies transformed into golden streaks of light as they charged directly at one another.
The instant they collided, a deafening roar echoed in all directions.
In an instant, space trembled violently. Within just a few seconds, the two had already exchanged dozens of blows. Their tremendous power generated storm after storm throughout the surrounding space, as though everything could be torn apart.
The storm swept toward the Lookout as well, but Talot stepped in and neutralized it in time.
Watching the battle unfold in the sky, Popo and Dende were filled with terror and drenched in cold sweat. They could only hope the two would exercise some restraint and not accidentally blow up the Lookout during their fight.
After all, there was no way they could withstand such horrifying power.
As for Son Gohan, his expression remained completely calm. A battle of this level was something he could now accomplish with ease as well.
Moreover, he knew that neither his father nor Vegeta was being serious yet. The two of them were merely playing around at this stage.
“Gohan, aren’t you planning to go up there and fight alongside them? With your current strength, you’re completely qualified.”
On a whim, Talot spoke to Son Gohan beside him.
In his view, although Son Gohan had undergone more than a year of intense training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, causing his latent potential to explode and his strength to soar, deep down he was still just a child. He still needed to experience a truly brutal battle before he could fully awaken.
“Although I’d really like to go up there and spar with Dad and Uncle Vegeta, this is their battle. They probably wouldn’t want to be disturbed.” Son Gohan answered seriously.
As a Saiyan, such an intense battle naturally stirred his blood and filled him with excitement. But reason told him to restrain himself and not let the desire for battle cloud his judgment.
Hearing Son Gohan’s answer, Talot nodded in satisfaction.
He had to admit that Son Gohan was very mature, steady, and knew his limits. He wasn’t the type to act recklessly.
If he could continue like this, his future achievements would be limitless.
Raising his head once more to watch the battle in the sky, Talot also found himself looking forward to seeing which of the two—Goku or Vegeta—would be the first to unleash their true power.
