"Rumble~~!!!!!!"
The explosion's flames formed a thick wall in the sky, cutting off the line of sight between Vegeta and Goku.
Vegeta was not Nappa, and he wasn't so easily fooled. After receiving that attack from Goku, he had no intention of waiting for Goku to make another move.
In the blink of an eye, his aura erupted as he charged forward, tearing through the wall of flames and appearing in front of Goku. With devastating force, his fist lashed out, and paired with his cold, arrogant expression, it carried a menacing intimidation.
Seeing this, Goku did not take it lightly. As if expecting it, he quickly assumed a defensive stance, blocking Vegeta's punch in time.
But the sheer ferocity and terrifying power behind Vegeta's fist gave Goku pressure like he had never felt before.
There was, after all, a gap in strength between them. And in terms of physical toughness, Vegeta clearly had the upper hand.
Even after training under a hundred times gravity, Goku's young body was still immature.
"Hoh?! You blocked it? But can you block what comes next?" Vegeta was slightly surprised that Goku had blocked his punch.
Throwing out the taunt, he immediately launched a fierce offensive. Every strike landed on the body, each blow exploding with ruthless destructive power.
In just a few short exchanges, Goku was already feeling enormous pressure.
If not for his high-intensity training, he likely wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
"You're amazing. You really are nothing like that baldy." Goku spoke up.
He shouldn't have said that. The moment the words left his mouth, Vegeta's anger spiked.
Comparing him to Nappa, what the hell is even Nappa?!
"To block my attacks, you've got some skill. But don't mistake me for that idiot Nappa. The farce ends here." Losing all patience to play around with Goku, Vegeta instantly vanished and when he reappeared, he had already jumped behind Goku.
"So fast?!" Goku's spine went cold. Before he could defend, his body was swept up by an overwhelming force, slamming into the ground, and even the ground itself shattered beneath the impact.
Vegeta did not press the attack, slowly descending to the ground.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue. Normally, he would have beaten his opponent until they had no strength left to resist, or killed them outright.
But if he killed Kakarot now, Talot and the others would definitely not let him off.
So all he could do was make Goku admit defeat.
"Give up, boy. To exchange this many blows with me, that alone is enough for you to be proud of. But if we keep fighting, you'll die." Vegeta's words carried a warning.
At that moment, Goku managed to crawl out from the rubble, catching his breath.
Admitting defeat was absolutely impossible.
Besides, he thought Vegeta was being a bit arrogant.
They hadn't even fought that much, yet Vegeta was already demanding his surrender.
Taking a deep breath to steady the energy within his body, Goku stood up, facing Vegeta once more.
"You're strong. Even with my 10x Kaio-ken, I'm still no match for you. But if you want me to surrender, you're far from making that happen." A confident smile spread across Goku's face.
His words made Vegeta frown in anger.
To him, Kakarot was being a little presumptuous.
But before he could reply, Raditz's voice rang out loudly from the distance: "Transform, Kakarot! If you want to defeat Vegeta, with your current strength, relying on Kaio-ken alone won't cut it!"
Hearing that, Goku actually relaxed.
Vegeta, on the other hand, was stunned. He stared dumbly at Raditz, then looked back at Kakarot in front of him.
"Transform?! D-Don't tell me…?!" Vegeta's eyes widened.
Suddenly, an ominous feeling welled up in his chest.
"I understand, brother." Goku nodded with a chuckle, "I've been holding back for a long time. Now, it's time to unleash my full power."
As his words fell, Goku dropped into a horse stance, body leaning slightly forward, fists drawn back at his waist as he gathered energy.
"Haaahhh~~!!!!!!" A roar erupted out from his mouth.
In that instant, the S-cells within him were pulled together, surging rapidly toward the center of his spine. The next moment, the pool of Super Saiyan energy was triggered.
His crab-shaped hairstyle stirred without wind, golden light surging from within his body before finally turning into flames that burned across his whole body.
"This… what is this?!!" The overwhelming pressure hit like a tidal wave, leaving Vegeta's mouth agape. The scouter on his left eye flashed warning after warning, detecting an energy spike beyond anything measurable.
He had never seen such a phenomenon before, nor had he ever experienced such a feeling.
In his heart, he already knew the answer, but he still refused to believe it was true.
[Impossible!! This brat… how could he also transform into a Super Saiyan?!] Vegeta clenched his teeth, glaring in fury at Goku's body as it continued to change before his eyes.
His breathing grew rapid, his heartbeat raced, and for an instant, a strange thought struck him: since when did Super Saiyan become so cheap?
The legendary form he had yearned for, the strongest in the universe. Kakarot, this little brat, had achieved it while he hadn't even touched the threshold.
…
Bang!!!!
The scouter on Vegeta's eye instantly reached its limit and exploded.
This only deepened his disbelief.
The latest model scouter, capable of detecting power levels beyond 300,000, had just blown apart… meaning Goku's power level had surpassed 300,000!
"Haaahhh!!!" With a youthful roar, golden aura erupted around Goku, his powerful aura rapidly expanding outward, his terrifying power level unleashed without restraint.
Vegeta, closest to him, was nearly blown away by the violent storm of energy.
When the storm finally subsided, Vegeta froze as he saw Goku's appearance.
Golden hair, green eyes… Super Saiyan!
It wasn't just Vegeta who was dumbfounded, even Nappa, standing at the edge of the battlefield, was struck speechless with disbelief.
What kind of joke was this? The Super Saiyan transformation, the lifelong pursuit of their entire race… had actually been achieved by this brat?!
At that moment, on the cliff, Talot and his group finally showed faint smiles as they saw Goku complete the transformation.
"Not bad. Though he still leaked quite a lot of aura during the process, reaching this point in such a short time is already impressive." Talot observed for a moment before giving his analysis.
Naturally, Goku's ability to transform owed much to Talot.
After all, Talot had guided him daily, letting Goku draw upon his own Super Saiyan power to comprehend and awaken his own.
The abundance of S-cells within Goku's body was also thanks to Talot's power helping unlock his genetic potential. Only then could Goku achieve Super Saiyan at such a young age.
Otherwise, with only his own effort, even with his strength growing as it had, it would have taken years, and millions of power level, before he could reach it.
"Kakarot's talent really is far greater than we imagined. I believe it won't be long before his Super Saiyan level catches up to ours." Salari sighed, a little ashamed at her inferiority.
Though not the first time she had seen it, nor the first time she had said such words, it was still her truest thought.
Back then, none of them had found the process so smooth.
"Seeing Vegeta's expression, I'm now satisfied." Raditz grinned wickedly.
Clearly, what he cared about was Vegeta's reaction to Kakarot's transformation.
Fear, unease, unwillingness…
Behind Talot's group, the four spectators were so shocked by Goku's Super Saiyan form that their jaws nearly hit the ground.
This transformation was too shocking, too unbelievable.
Even with their weak strength, their senses could clearly tell from the aura's sheer intensity.
And in that moment, a far scarier thought suddenly struck them—
If Goku's aura after transforming was already this terrifying… then what about Talot and the others when they transformed? How strong would they be?
The more they thought about it, the more frightened they became. So they simply tossed away this question and shifted all their attention back to the battlefield.
