Vegeta looked up and saw a powerful beam descending, forcing him to leap aside. The beam sliced through the entire mountain.
"Damn it!" Piccolo cursed. He thought Vegeta, without a scouter, wouldn't notice him. He hadn't anticipated that Vegeta had learned to sense energy!
Vegeta sneered with a cruel grin. "Namekian, here to be my first test subject?"
"Vegeta!"
At that moment, the others finally arrived, surrounding Vegeta.
"Goku! Yamcha!" Bulma, seeing the group, cried out in relief, tears welling up. After all these days, her nightmare with Vegeta was finally coming to an end!
"Kakarot, do you really think you can beat me now? The Super Saiyan isn't yours alone."
As Vegeta spoke, a powerful aura surged from his body, sweeping outward like a storm.
"Ahhhhh!"
The overwhelming force blew everyone back, including Goku and Piccolo, who struggled to stay upright.
Vegeta's power was surging wildly, his face twisting in exertion.
Thunderous booms echoed as massive dark clouds gathered in the sky, lightning crackling ominously. The earth trembled, and people worldwide panicked, fearing a catastrophic disaster.
"RAAAAAH!"
Vegeta's roar resonated through the skies as his hair turned a bright golden color, marking his entry into the initial stage of the Legendary Super Saiyan transformation.
"So, this is the Legendary Super Saiyan? No, this is just like Kakarot's form. There's even more potential I haven't tapped into!"
Vegeta looked at his hands, fully aware of his power but sensing an obstacle preventing him from reaching deeper within.
"Am I still too weak to fully unlock it?"
As Vegeta pondered, Goku had already transformed into a Super Saiyan, staring coldly at Vegeta.
"Let's finish this, Vegeta! This time, I won't hold back!"
Goku assumed a fighting stance, realizing the gravity of the situation and knowing mercy was no longer an option.
"Kakarot, Saiyans grow stronger through life-or-death battles. I'll use you as fuel to reach my next breakthrough!"
Vegeta mirrored Goku's stance, knowing that only an intense fight could help him dig deeper into the Legendary Super Saiyan power.
"Ha!"
With a shout, Goku charged toward Vegeta. Just as Vegeta prepared to strike, Goku suddenly shot upwards, causing Vegeta's attack to miss.
"Don't even think about running!"
Vegeta immediately pursued him.
Goku flew higher, pulling the battle away from the ground. "I can't let this battle destroy the innocents below. If too many are harmed, we'll have to wait a year to use the Dragon Balls for revival."
Despite Vegeta's overwhelming power, Goku couldn't help but feel exhilarated. "Vegeta is insanely strong now… This is the Legendary Super Saiyan's strength? I shouldn't be thinking this right now, but I'm excited!"
"Kakarot!" Vegeta's hands glowed with green energy spheres, firing blasts toward Goku.
Goku deftly dodged the projectiles. Suddenly, Vegeta appeared beside him almost instantly, landing a punch to Goku's face. Goku quickly recovered and countered with his own punch.
"So solid!" Goku noted, feeling as though he'd punched a rock.
Vegeta sneered, launching a relentless barrage of punches and kicks. Goku, focused, defended against each strike, waiting for openings to counterattack. The two clashed in an intense exchange of blows.
"Now, predicting the next containment."
As viewers watched Goku and Vegeta's fierce battle, the screen abruptly changed, leaving them disappointed.
Luffy: "No way! It was just getting good."
Brook: "This screen has no sense of romance!"
Gen: "Indeed. Both Goku and Vegeta are incredibly strong. Even if I transformed into Leo, I'd struggle against them!"
Regulus: "So even aliens can be like humans. But they're truly powerful."
Asmita: "Their strength seems far beyond that of Ultraman Tiga. So this is what it means to transform into a Super Saiyan? Fascinating."
Rogers: "I wonder how their fight will end."
Diana: "I hope Goku wins. If the invader wins, their Earth is doomed."
Nick Fury: "That's beyond our control. Let's focus on the next containment that'll appear."
Minos: "If it's another mask like the last one, that'll be boring."
["The next containment to appear is called the Terrifying Elder."]
As the announcement ended, an image of a humanoid creature appeared on the screen. It resembled an elderly man, yet upon closer inspection, its body was completely rotted except for its facial features.
Albafica: "What an ugly thing."
Minos: "For once, I agree with the Saint. Disgusting. Is it even human?"
Rhodes: "No human could look like that!"
["The Terrifying Elder: a rotting, humanoid creature with the appearance of an elderly man, possessing an incredibly potent corrosive ability and a strong hunting instinct. Anything it touches, living or non-living, begins to corrode, with the affected area expanding the longer it's in contact. Eventually, the target is completely dissolved into an unknown liquid."]
["But that's not its most dangerous attribute. Its primary ability lies in a pocket dimension. By creating a portal on any surface it corrodes, the Terrifying Elder can enter its pocket dimension and emerge elsewhere, allowing it to ambush prey. Once it partially corrodes its target, rendering them defenseless, it drags them into its dimension."]
["Attempts to analyze this pocket dimension were unsuccessful. Any equipment that entered corroded almost instantly. The last recorded images revealed a vast space resembling an ordinary living environment, complete with furniture and the captured prey."]
