"Wow, incredible! Absolutely incredible!"
"Is that really something a human could do?"
"Fool, one is the Demon King, and the other is the Celestial God. Of course, they're not human!"
"Maybe that boy called Yuujin really is a god, a guardian of Earth…"
"If he is the Celestial God, he'll definitely defeat the Demon King Piccolo, right?! Go, Celestial God! You can do it!"
Initially, when Yuujin introduced himself as the Celestial God, people didn't feel much and even doubted him. But as they watched Yuujin fiercely battling the Demon King Piccolo, they gradually began to believe it.
The boy named Yuujin, who could stand up to the Demon King Piccolo, might really be the Celestial God!
If the Celestial God is here to punish the Demon King, perhaps there really is hope for this world!
With a new hope ignited in their hearts, people began to cheer loudly for Yuujin, even the criminals and thugs who initially looked down on him began to waver.
If that kid really is some Celestial God and he defeats the Demon King Piccolo, then their current paradise will turn back into their hell.
No way!!!
Demon King Piccolo, you must defeat that kid, for the sake of all evil in the world!
Leaving aside the mixed emotions of the onlookers, meanwhile, in the skies over Kaiselukin City—
"Hah! Hah!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Yuujin and Demon King Piccolo continued to clash, their battle now having moved from the ground to the sky. Explosive sounds echoed as they exchanged blows mid-air.
"If you don't want to die, leave here immediately," Yuujin warned the dumbfounded cameramen standing nearby, before Hao Siqi and several other women also took to the sky.
Neither their master nor Demon King Piccolo had unleashed their wide-range destructive moves yet, but it was only a matter of time before the entire Kaiselukin City would be destroyed as the battle raged on.
Panicked, the cameramen fled, while Hao Siqi continued filming the intense fight between Yuujin and Demon King Piccolo.
For their master's plan, the entire battle had to be broadcasted to the world.
"No way! No way! Impossible!"
After thousands of exchanges, Demon King Piccolo was in shock and rage, his attacks proving utterly ineffective against Yuujin.
He was now at least ten times stronger than he used to be, supposedly making him invincible on this planet. Even the so-called Celestial Gods should be trembling in fear before his overwhelming power.
But why? Why is this boy in front of him so powerful?!
"Die!!!"
With a flash, two beams shot from Demon King Piccolo's eyes.
Ordinary people would have been unable to dodge and killed by this attack, but Yuujin sidestepped effortlessly, evading the beams.
"Boring tricks."
Yuujin commented and then shot two beams from his own eyes, which sped towards Demon King Piccolo.
"What?!!"
In disbelief, Demon King Piccolo instinctively dodged, and the beams cut through countless skyscrapers, carving deep grooves in Kaiselukin City below. The power was far more devastating than Demon King Piccolo's earlier attack.
"No way! How are you able to use my technique?!"
Pulling back, Demon King Piccolo yelled in shock.
"Your technique?" Yuujin shrugged. "Just a simple trick. I picked it up by watching."
Yuujin wasn't showing off; it was simply true.
For those who had mastered ki, techniques like energy blasts, finger rays, and eye beams weren't fundamentally different – they all involved gathering ki and firing it from a point on the body.
Whether you used your eyes, mouth, or fingers, if you wanted, you could even shoot it out from your backside.
If someone could manage that, it would undoubtedly be a devastating blow to their enemy…
"Damn brat!"
"Then how about this move?!"
With a wave of his arm, Demon King Piccolo hurled a massive energy bomb.
With a sharp screech, the bomb tore through the atmosphere toward Yuujin.
This was the Demon Cannon, one of Demon King Piccolo's ultimate techniques. With his current strength, it was as powerful as dozens of missiles; it would obliterate even steel.
In the early days of Earth, Demon King Piccolo's attacks were indeed terrifying. But to Yuujin, it was hardly a threat.
Gathering ki in his finger, Yuujin fired a single ray that intercepted the energy bomb, absorbing its impact. As the bomb dissipated, Yuujin's finger ray burst, splitting into dozens of small ki blasts that swarmed toward Demon King Piccolo.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
"Arghhh…"
A massive fireball exploded in mid-air as Demon King Piccolo screamed, pummeled by the swarm of ki blasts, and plummeted toward the ground.
"He's suppressing Demon King Piccolo!"
"It's an unbelievable fight. Maybe this Celestial God really can do it!"
"Celestial God, defeat him! Defeat him!"
Watching the live broadcast, people around the world were filled with adrenaline and hope.
This was the Guardian of Earth, their Celestial God!
Though they initially doubted, people didn't realize that they had all come to believe in Yuujin's identity as the Celestial God and were genuinely hoping he would defeat the evil Demon King Piccolo.
Meanwhile, inside the palace—
"Your Majesty!"
A uniformed general burst into the room, finding the king standing tensely by the window, anxiously watching the battle outside.
As the CEO of the famous Dragon Ball Company, the king knew Yuujin personally, but even he didn't expect Yuujin to be the Celestial God, battling and overpowering Demon King Piccolo!
But no matter what, as long as they could defeat Demon King Piccolo and save the future of this world, nothing else mattered!
Gripping the railing, the king was just as excited and fired up…
To be continued…
Goku stands still with lifeless eyes…
Suddenly, a huge aura erupts…
A Golden streak illuminates the cosmos!
