Seeing Goku raise his hands high, Cooler's first reaction was to think that he was surrendering.
Raising one's hands in surrender is a commonly recognized gesture throughout the universe.
But soon, Cooler snapped out of it.
That guy who looked like Bardock, one of the three great Super Saiyans of Planet Vegeta, was a Saiyan!
Saiyans are fighting maniacs, how could they surrender easily?
It's him!
The energy ball above my head is a technique that this Saiyan has used!
"You ba*tard, die!"
The energy within that energy ball was so powerful that even Cooler didn't dare to take it lightly, so he immediately pressed his fingers together and fired a beam of light at Goku.
"Kakarot!"
Vegeta wanted to stop him, but Cooler also fired a beam of light at him. The speed was so fast that Vegeta almost couldn't react. He managed to block it with great difficulty, but he was sent flying and could only watch helplessly as the other beam of light rushed towards Goku.
Just as Goku was about to be hit, someone suddenly appeared in front of him to block it.
"Pff!"
Death Beam pierced through his body, but its power was weakened as a result. Piccolo rushed over from the other side, emitting the red Kaio-ken's aura from his body. With a forceful push, he diverted the beam's direction, causing it to hit the ground instead.
"Goku!"
"Old Son!"
"Dad!"
"Kakarot!"
As everyone shouted, Goku yelled, "Here it comes!"
The massive energy ball hidden in the sky instantly descended and floated a few meters above Goku's head.
Goku forcefully pushed his hands downward and the Spirit Bomb created by absorbing Earth's vitality smashed towards Cooler with great momentum.
Filled with tremendous energy, the Spirit Bomb made Cooler feel threatened for the first time. His eyes widened and he pointed his right hand towards the sky.
"Supernova!"
In the next moment, an energy ball which was as hot as the sun appeared on his fingertips and rushed towards Spirit Bomb.
This was Cooler's strongest move, one that could destroy a planet.
However, to his surprise, Supernova was instantly swallowed upon colliding with Spirit Bomb, without even lasting a second.
The unstoppable Spirit Bomb collided with Cooler and pushed him back.
"How... how can I die here?"
To everyone's surprise, Cooler managed to momentarily halt the progress of the Spirit Bomb by using both hands to block it. Although his feet were only rooted slightly into the ground, he put all his upper body strength into an attempt to push the Spirit Bomb back.
Rumble, the rocks and pebbles around Cooler began to float up.
An icy storm blew in all directions.
Cooler gritted his teeth, but his body kept sliding backwards under the overwhelming power of the Spirit Bomb.
"Not good, I can't stop it!"
In the end, Spirit Bomb engulfed Cooler and then it continued forward and consumed a portion of the Cooler Force' soldiers who were hiding behind him, before finally exploding.
Under the impact of the Spirit Bomb, the ground in front of everyone looked like it had been dug out by a giant beast, leaving a huge semi-circular pit.
The aftermath of the Spirit Bomb caused an abundance of dispersed energy to permeate the area, disrupting everyone's Ki Sense.
However, to the naked eye, it was evident that Cooler had completely disappeared from the world.
"How... how is this possible?"
Along with Cooler's disappearance, there were at least hundreds of his soldiers from the Cooler Force at the scene who were also gone, including even Dore from the Armored Squadron who had been caught up in it.
However, compared to the huge damage, Salza found Cooler's disappearance even more unbelievable.
That's Cooler, their king!
Aside from a moment of embarrassment on Planet Ifrit a few years ago, Cooler had been invincible wherever he went.
Now, after years of building up his strength and preparing for revenge against the Saiyans, how could Cooler die on such a desolate planet like this?
Compared to Cooler Force, who were already in great shock and panic.
On the other side, Goku breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of this result and turned to look at Raditz lying on the ground.
Earlier, in order to protect him, Raditz had taken the fatal meant blow for Goku and was now barely clinging to life.
"Big brother! Did you see that? I did it! I did it!" Goku hugged Raditz, excitedly exclaiming.
Beside him, Krillin and Yamcha also raised their hands, cheering: "Great! We won!"
In the distance, Vegeta flew over and stood beside Raditz with his arms crossed, saying, "Raditz, I have a newfound respect for you. If it weren't for you, Kakarot's move would have failed just now."
Raditz coughed up blood and smiled bitterly, "You, you guys have time to say all this... Hurry up and give me a Senzu Bean!"
"Ah!" Gohan smacked his forehead and jogged over with the bag of Senzu Beans in hand. "Uncle Raditz, the Senzu Beans are here..."
Just as Gohan was about to stuff a bean into Raditz's mouth, Vegeta, who was wearing the Scouter, suddenly saw an anomaly on the screen.
"Beep, beep, beep!"
"Hmm? This is…?" Vegeta's mouth fell open as he saw something on the screen, and he suddenly yelled out, "Kakarot! Cooler isn't dead yet!"
"What?"
Whoosh!
A red beam hit the bag of Senzu Beans in Gohan's hand, instantly burning the entire bag along with the Senzu Beans.
Following the direction of the light beam, everyone slowly turned their heads to look.
Cooler, who they thought was already dead, stood with one foot on the ground and there was a one person wide hole behind him.
Cooler's body was battered and bruised, with wounds visible all over. He appeared somewhat miserable, and his aura had weakened compared to before.
However, none of these were fatal injuries!
Despite everyone's best efforts to protect Goku and allow him to unleash his last trump card, Spirit Bomb, they ultimately failed!
"Long live, King Cooler!"
Seeing that Cooler was still alive, Salza and the others immediately cheered.
On Goku's side, a suffocating pressure hung over everyone's heads.
"Senzu…Senzu Beans!" Gohan looked blankly at the bag in his hand, which had turned to ash, then looked at Raditz on the ground.
Without Senzu Beans, Raditz's mouth was already full of blood.
After a few coughs, he finally succumbed to his severe injuries and stopped breathing.
"Uncle Raditz!" Gohan couldn't help but cry in grief.
"Cooler!" Goku turned around and for the first time, he wanted to kill someone.
"A Saiyan finally died? Hehe..."
Cooler's face contorted into a maniacal grin. "Saiyans... you really are a dangerous bunch. Just a moment ago, I even thought I might actually die, had I not come up with that clever idea!"
Just now, when Cooler felt he couldn't hold on any longer, he suddenly thought of hiding underground, which fortunately allowed him to escape a disaster.
But for someone who proclaims himself as the Emperor of the Universe to hide like a rat in front of a Saiyan was an insult that made Cooler gnash his teeth!
"Get ready to face death, Saiyans! Today, I won't let any of you leave alive!"
