Chapter 68: Don't Just Call Me Kakarot, Remember My Name
But Broly was still in a berserk state, completely devoid of reason!
"Bro...Broly!!"
"Oh dear, just when I finally managed to successfully brainwash someone, he gets knocked out of the timeline?" Salsa sighed as he looked at Paragus falling into the black hole.
"No problem, let the Dark Masked King chase after him!" Mechikabura replied absentmindedly.
If they were weak, the brainwashing worked. If they were strong, the brainwashing didn't succeed.
Sigh, what a headache!
Salsa glanced at the departing Dark Masked King and then at Mechikabura, whose expression wasn't too good. Tentatively, he asked, "Should I go after him too?"
"Just enjoy the show!" Mechikabura rested his chin on his hand and turned his gaze to Lin Qi, who was floating mid-air.
"If Towa can't handle it, isn't there another one ready to step in?"
Without a target, Broly started losing focus. Paragus had exited the stage, and Towa was panting heavily, hiding in a corner.
At this moment, the only one still standing mid-air was Lin Qi. Broly's eyes immediately locked onto him.
"Kakarot..."
Broly's blood-red eyes fixed on Lin Qi. With a slight push of his foot, he leapt into the air and swung his fist at him.
Lin Qi crossed his arms over his chest to block Broly's punch, but the moment the blow landed, he realized he had severely underestimated its force.
Boom!
The impact felt like a massive mountain crashing down. Lin Qi's body was sent flying backward.
Amid the rolling dust, Lin Qi pushed aside a large boulder and got back on his feet. "Tch, tch... This guy, as expected of a Legendary Super Saiyan! And he hasn't even transformed yet..."
Lin Qi grew more cautious. With a loud roar, he transformed into Super Saiyan 4, blocking Broly's swift, sweeping kick with a punch.
As Broly's kick missed its target, Lin Qi appeared above him and aimed a kick at Broly's neck.
It had been a long time since Lin Qi had such a proper warm-up. Encountering Broly was a rare opportunity!
Sensing the incoming attack, Broly instinctively ducked, avoiding Lin Qi's sweeping kick.
Watching the battle unfold, Towa finally caught her breath.
She stood up and glared coldly at Lin Qi. "Time Patrol... Hmph, a bunch of annoying flies."
"You know Kakarot, don't you? Why do you hate him so much?" Lin Qi taunted while blocking Broly's ferocious punches.
"Kakarot..." Broly kept repeating the same four syllables, but his attacks became even fiercer.
"Do you want to see him? That Saiyan Kakarot you hate so much!" Lin Qi smirked provocatively.
"Arghhhh..."
Broly threw his head back and roared, his aura erupting once more. The pressure generated formed numerous gusts of wind, lifting the surrounding debris.
"Kakarot..."
Broly extended his hand and fired a barrage of energy blasts at Lin Qi in mid-air.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions echoed in the sky, with smoke billowing everywhere.
Lin Qi appeared in front of Broly, unscathed, leaving Broly visibly stunned.
Even in his irrational state, Broly realized that the person in front of him was not someone he could easily defeat.
"Kakarot left a deep impression on you, didn't he? Well... remember my name too!"
Lin Qi grabbed Broly's wrist, lifted his massive body, and hurled him away. "Saiyan, Lin Qi!"
"Kaka..." Broly crashed into the uneven ground, creating another crater. He looked at Lin Qi in surprise.
"...rot...Lin Qi... Arghhhh!"
Climbing out of the crater, Broly roared in rage once again. "Lin Qi!"
Looking at Broly's crimson eyes as he charged toward him, Lin Qi caught his punch and countered with a sweeping kick.
Bang!
Despite Lin Qi's seemingly lean physique, his kick carried immense force, striking Broly's chest heavily.
The massive Broly was sent flying backward, leaving a deep trench on the ground before embedding into a wall amidst the rolling dust and falling debris.
Lin Qi raised an eyebrow. It seemed his teasing had paid off—Broly had really remembered his name!
"Damn Time Patrol..." Towa scowled. Had Broly actually fallen into a disadvantageous position?
Towa aimed her staff at Broly, who was struggling to free himself from the wall, and unleashed her demonic power. "Let me give you the strongest brainwashing yet..."
"Kill him, Broly!"
Dark energy surged into Broly's body. Feeling the forceful energy control, Broly roared angrily and turned his attention toward Towa, his massive fists swinging at her.
Bang!
Towa was slammed into the wall by Broly's enormous fist, her demonic power completely drained.
Towa, now battered and bruised, lost the markings of a demon god on her face as her dark energy continued to dissipate.
She had reverted to her original form as a denizen of the Demon Realm.
Broly's punch had knocked Towa unconscious.
"Hey, hey, Salsa, look at this! Towa is completely useless!"
Putine, one of Mechikabura's two female subordinates, immediately started mocking Towa.
"..." Salsa sighed, glancing at Putine beside him. Women... sigh.
Lin Qi watched indifferently, noticing the remnants of Towa's demonic power gathering and forming into a humanoid figure.
From the energy emerged Mira, who stood protectively in front of Towa, leaning against the wall.
"Oh, isn't that the android Towa created?" Salsa's previously bored expression turned to surprise.
"Wasn't he destroyed by the Time Patrol?" Putine was equally shocked. "Could she have created another one?"
"Towa..." Mira's expression darkened as he looked at the battered Towa.
From Mira's back sprouted a pair of black wings that turned into smoke, enveloping both him and Towa.
The cocoon-like structure drew a gasp from Putine. "Oh, oh, oh... What's he doing now?"
Lin Qi was curious as well. While magic was annoying, its power amplification couldn't be underestimated.
"Arghhhh!"
Broly, devoid of reason, didn't care about any of this. He attacked anything he could see.
He punched the cocoon, causing it to tremble slightly before quickly dissipating. What emerged in Broly's view was Ultimate Mira.
With white hair and upper body covered in white fur, he bore a striking resemblance to a Super Saiyan 5!
