"This can't go on… Goku's going to lose…"
Inside the created world, Cai Lin and the other women watched in shock as Goku took blow after blow without being able to fight back. They could hardly believe that someone as strong as Goku could be beaten.
"No! I'm going out there—I'm going to help Master. That damned Baby… I'll tear him to pieces for daring to bully my Master!"
Moonlight clenched her teeth, her eyes as cold as ice.
"Bulma, how do we get out of here? We have to help Goku right now!"
Even gentle Ruo Lin's face had turned cold as she watched Goku's head split and bleed under Baby's punches. Her heart ached as if it were bleeding too.
"How do we get out…?"
Xun'er and the others looked grim as well. With the man they loved in danger, how could they simply stand by?
"This is a world Goku himself created. Unless he releases us, we can't leave,"
Shizuka said excitedly, eyes on the screen as though she were watching an action movie.
"Hey, aren't you all his wives? Why aren't you worried?"
Saeko and the others' calmness infuriated Han Yue and her companions.
"Stop overreacting. How could Goku lose to someone on this level? Sit quietly and watch,"
No. 18 spoke coolly, her queenly aura so strong even Cai Lin and Yun Yun felt it.
"B-but…"
Ya Fei began, still staring at Goku being battered in mid-air.
"Relax and keep watching. This is only Goku's Super Saiyan 2 form. He hasn't used his real power yet,"
Yuriko smiled and motioned for them to sit down.
."Damn you! Don't get so full of yourself, bastard!"
With a roar, a terrifying aura erupted across the universe. In an instant, Baby—whose fists had been raining down like a storm—was blasted backwards. A mountain a kilometer high collapsed with a deafening crash.
---
A red-skinned, powerfully built body. Thick, wild black hair. Eyes sharp with a hint of ferocity. An aura so overwhelming it seemed to destroy anything it touches.
This… was Super Saiyan 4.
"So… so handsome…"
On the screen, Goku's new form left Ya Fei and the others wide-eyed. That towering, divine figure was mesmerizing.
It was the first time they'd seen Goku transform into Super Saiyan 4, and they were completely captivated.
He's bigger! Goku's gotten bigger! He's so cool—amazing!"
Zi Yan's face flushed with excitement.
"Such terrifying power… can someone like this really exist…"
Even Cai Lin was stunned. From within Goku's created world, they could clearly feel the overwhelming, destructive force of this form.
"Wh-what level is this…?"
Xun'er stared at Bulma. She had heard of Goku's power before, but only now did she truly understand how far beyond imagination "strong" really was.
"Super Saiyan 4. He skipped straight to it. Super 3 takes too long to gather energy,"
Bulma smiled with pride in her voice.
"This is only Super 4? I can't believe it… what kind of monster would Super 5 be…"
Yun Yun whispered in awe.
"What a terrifying world. Our old continent was so weak in comparison…"
Cao Lin said blankly, unable to look away from Goku's figure.
"And after Super 4… it isn't Super 5,"
Saeko smiled mysteriously. "You may see what comes next someday…"
"Impossible… that aura…"
Baby rose from the rubble, trembling before the sight of Goku's power.
"This is impossible… you can't be this strong… stop…"
He roared and fired ki blasts at Goku like rain.
BOOM BOOM BOOM—
Goku strode calmly through the air, not even bothering to dodge as the blasts exploded against him. The sky thundered with endless detonations. The planet cracked and began to collapse under the barrage.
"Hahaha—die! Die! Die!"
Baby hurled blast after blast, eyes gleaming with mad delight.
"This is what happens when you oppose me, filthy monkey! Die!"
Panting at last, he stared into the billowing smoke.
"Is he dead…?"
"Dead? Are you daydreaming? With that little power?"
A cool voice drifted out. Baby's pupils shrank. Goku emerged from the dust, completely unscathed—not even a tear in his clothes.
"Impossible… how can you be unharmed…"
Baby's fear spiked into rage. More blasts streamed from his hands.
With a flash, Goku moved. His right hand became like a blade, piercing straight through Baby's chest. Lightning flared brilliantly as a terrifying suction burst from Goku's palm, golden light flooding the world. Baby's vast aura drained rapidly away.
"No… impossible…"
Baby's once-arrogant eyes were now wide with the fear of death.
"You can't… be this strong…"
"You only absorbed the power of two Dragon Balls. With that, you thought you could beat me? You're nowhere close. But to die under my Super Saiyan 4 state—consider it an honor."
"Heh—just kidding."
Baby's terrified face twisted into a sly smile.
"Such terrifying power… in that case, I'll be taking your body for myself…"
His body liquefied in an instant. Drawn by the suction, it flowed up Goku's arm and into his body.
"Huh?"
Goku's expression changed. He instantly remembered Baby entering Vegeta's body to control him.
"This bastard… pulling the same trick…"
"Heh-heh—Goku, I admit you're the strongest in the universe. But now that title is mine! Hahaha!"
Baby's excited, frenzied laugh echoed from within Goku's body.
"You… you're trying to take control of me?"
Goku's face darkened.
"Exactly. Your body is now completely under my control. Hahaha! Wonderful… with this vessel, I'll be the strongest in the universe. My dream of ruling all will no longer be just a dream!"
"Damn it…"
Goku gritted his teeth, struggling to move, but no matter how hard he tried he couldn't budge—his body no longer felt like his own.
"Heh-heh—how is it? Can't control yourself, can you? Your nervous system is entirely in my hands. This body… is mine now. Hahaha!"
Inside Goku's created world—
"No! Goku's been possessed—what do we do? We're finished…"
Xiao Yu and the others all went pale. Even the usually composed Saeko and her group shot to their feet in alarm.
"What are you worrying about? Goku won't be controlled by an enemy like this,"
No. 18 glared at them, arms crossed, still watching the screen. Yet a flicker of worry flashed in her eyes.
"Wah—Goku-nii's eyes are changing! He's really being possessed! Nooo! I don't want this—Goku-nii!"
Alice burst into tears as she saw the screen, where Goku's eyes were turning blood-red and evil. All the women's faces changed drastically.
"Goku… you're not really possessed, are you? Hey—this isn't funny…"
---
"This… this is the power I've dreamed of. This is the true Saiyan strength… hahaha! From now on, I will be the strongest in the universe. The entire cosmos will be under my rule!"
Inside Goku's body, Baby laughed wildly, eyes glowing with evil red light. Feeling the might of his new vessel, he threw back his head in mad delight. Evil flooded the universe, plunging it into terror.
"A-ancestor… Goku… he's really been taken over?"
In the Realm of the Kais, the Supreme Kai slumped to the floor in despair as he watched the crystal ball.
"It's over… if Goku's possessed, who in this universe can stop him? The whole cosmos is doomed…"
"This is… truly disastrous…"
Even the Old Kai's face was grave. They knew Goku's power well. If he were controlled, who could possibly stand against him—a monster who had even defeated the God of Destruction?
"A monster like him shouldn't be controlled so easily…"
The Old Kai stared hard at the crystal ball, hoping for a miracle.
