"What? You're not joking, Vados. Are you saying that the incredibly powerful aura from before was released by that mortal in front of us?" Champa asked incredulously. "How is it possible? How can a mere mortal contain both the power of destruction and the power of an Angel?"
Champa had a hard time believing Vados' words. In the eyes of the Gods of Destruction, mortals were insignificant beings. The power of destruction was exclusive to the Gods of Destruction. As for the power of an Angel, it was even more impossible for a mortal to possess. So, even though the words came from Vados, he still didn't believe it!
"There is no mistake, Lord Champa," Vados replied firmly. "Just keep an eye on him. I think the strength of the Grand God of Destruction shouldn't be weaker than Lord Zeno's guards."
The power released before was too overwhelming. Although Zeno's guards were very strong, even surpassing the level of most Angels, there was still a significant gap between them and the Grand Priest. The force she felt earlier should not be weaker than Zeno's guards.
After another firm assertion from Vados, Champa finally became serious. He quickly turned his gaze to the arena. If that mortal was really that powerful, then his understanding of mortals would be completely subverted. No matter what, he must now maintain a level of respect for that mortal, because he was now the Grand God of Destruction and the immediate superior of the Gods of Destruction. It would be irrational to offend him because of some foolish remarks.
Meanwhile, in the arena:
"Grand God of Destruction, please use all your strength. Let us all see it!" Zeno's guards said confidently. "I hope your strength is not too weak, otherwise this battle will be too boring!"
Although they had sensed Goten's power before, they still thought that together, they could easily defeat him.
"Want to see my true strength?" Goten smiled faintly. "Don't worry, this battle will definitely not be boring!"
A terrifying grass-green flame burst out from his body in an instant. Immediately afterward, the ki aura turned purplish-red, and Goten's appearance changed drastically. His body became covered in red hair, and his hair turned purplish-red. Crackling lightning flashed from the tips of his hair and body hair! His aura reached an incomparably terrifying level in an instant.
At this moment, he did not keep his base form but transformed into the form of Super Saiyan IV Limit Break. Although he felt that Zeno's guards could not be his opponents, he had to ensure he didn't hold back too much. If he didn't show his full strength, it might not be so easy to defeat them.
"Oh my god! Are you kidding? Is this powerful aura really coming from that mortal? It's unbelievable!" one of the gods exclaimed.
"No...impossible. How could a mortal possess such a powerful force? Isn't this too exaggerated?" another god added.
All the Gods of Destruction were extremely frightened as they sensed Goten's aura. They had never felt such a powerful presence. Even in the Grand Priest's body, they had never felt such a huge sense of oppression. After all, the Grand Priest never needed to release his full power in front of them.
"It's exactly the same as the aura I felt last time," Champa immediately said. "Looks like you're right, Vados."
Such a powerful aura had completely surpassed the limits that the Gods of Destruction could comprehend. Even the Angels might struggle to perceive how strong Goten currently was. At this moment, even the Grand Priest wore a surprised expression.
"It's unbelievable, feeling this aura at such a close distance! Is this really the power a mortal should have?" The Grand Priest thought in horror. "It seems that over the years, we have underestimated mortals."
Despite his astonishment, he noticed that Goten's body didn't seem to have the previous Angel power, perhaps deliberately hidden. This was something he would definitely figure out.
As for Zeno's two guards, their faces turned even more grim.
"No... impossible," one of them muttered. "This guy's strength is incredible."
Both guards shared the same shock. When they sensed his power before, it wasn't at this level.
"What's wrong?" Goten asked lightly, seeing the shock on their faces. "Where did your confident look go? Are you surprised by my strength?"
"It is undeniable that your strength is indeed strong," one of the guards admitted. "Even far beyond our judgment of you! However, I can tell you with certainty that even with such force, you will definitely not be able to defeat us!"
The guards seemed absolutely confident in their abilities.
"Yeah? In that case, let's see how much of that confidence is real!" Goten's mouth curled into a wicked smile.
"Hmph..." Seeing Goten's confident appearance, both guards raised their brows slightly. Then, in perfect synchronization, they flashed to Goten's left and right sides, attacking with heavy punches.
This time, they held nothing back. They had felt Goten's power and knew hiding their strength was unwise. Despite the simultaneous attack from both sides, Goten's expression remained unchanged as he opened his hands to block.
Bang! Bang!
Two muffled crashes sounded at the same time. The ground under Goten's feet began to vibrate violently, with ripples of condensed energy spreading out quickly. Yet, Goten's body remained motionless. Clearly, such power couldn't harm him.
"Zeno's guards, is this all the strength you have?" Goten said lightly. "It seems that it's not me letting you down, but your strength making me uninterested."
Suddenly, Goten shouted angrily, "Haa!" In the next second, terrifying power was released from his body. Zeno's guards were blown away by the sheer force.
Then, Goten jumped up, instantly condensing two huge energy balls in his hands. "Come and try this!" he declared.
The hot energy balls, like miniature suns, blasted directly at the two guards.
