Boundless's body contained the energy of dozens of planets, including the life force of every being that had inhabited them, plus Big Gete Star's accumulated power from countless years. He had become an unimaginably vast energy source.
Because of this overwhelming power, he and Turles faced everyone with extreme confidence and arrogance!
Raditz stepped forward to meet Boundless.
"Don't move. I'll handle him alone." Raditz's voice was firm as he addressed his allies. "In the end, Boundless is the vengeful undead who came after me, just like back on Planet Tumat. I will deal with him!"
"You? Alone?" Boundless frowned, his corrupted features twisting with disdain. "Raditz, you underestimate me! I was the one who won on Planet Tumat!"
He roared, and his face shifted and contorted grotesquely.
Indeed, when they had fought on Planet Tumat, Boundless had possessed sufficient energy reserves. If he hadn't rushed to occupy Raditz's body, he would have definitely won that battle.
But real battles are decided by results alone, and no factor can change the outcome.
"Since you've been reborn, you should learn from the good side of humanity. Why did you have to fuse with Cooler and cooperate with Dr. Gero?" Raditz shook his head, clenching his fists as he exploded his ki to the highest level. "Of course, your worst decision was attacking Earth!"
"You've made me angry!" Raditz's eyes suddenly blazed with fury. Golden brilliance erupted fiercely around him, and blade-like energy waves swept across the Sacred World of the Kai, splitting the ground and air. The full power of a Super Saiyan shook the entire sanctuary!
Both Kakarot and Vegeta felt their hearts tremble. They had thought their strength had improved dramatically after training, believing they were approaching full power themselves, but Raditz's display still left them terrified.
"Brother!" Kakarot called out in awe.
"It's too powerful—this energy is stronger than Boundless!" Vegeta muttered.
"Haaah!" Boundless wasn't about to be outdone and burst out his own ki. Possessing controllable ki was a new skill he had gained after his fusion, making him more like a living being, perfecting his evolution, and demonstrating his incredible strength!
Kibito panicked, his Adam's apple bobbing as his weathered face turned pale with terror.
Not only were humans this powerful, but even non-human creatures surpassed the gods. What kind of existence had the divine hierarchy become?
He stammered, barely able to get words out: "Ah... this is the sacred world..."
"Shut up!" Boundless's eyes flashed with killing intent, red beams piercing from his gaze like flying arrows.
Seeing the deadly rays rushing toward him, Kibito didn't react fast enough and stood frozen. Just like when facing Dabura, Kibito's psychological fortitude was truly poor. Even with his considerable strength, his performance was disappointing.
Raditz had no choice but to fire a ki blast to help Kibito block the destructive beams.
With a thunderous explosion, the blast created a shockwave in front of Kibito. His hair whipped behind him as his pupils dilated with shock. "That was close, Raditz..."
"Shut up!"
Raditz also frowned angrily, his expression showing clear disgust.
Kibito got the message and stopped talking. The Supreme Kai was equally shocked by their overwhelming power and, already flustered, involuntarily took two steps back.
The battle was about to begin.
The air grew turbulent, and invisible storms spread outward like sharp knives scraping the ground. Even the sacred world would inevitably lose a layer of its surface. Within the wind, dots of light flashed—their overflowing energy inadvertently filling the space, adding splendor to the chaos.
The brilliant energy detonated with their thunderous shouts, and the Sacred World of the Kai shook violently!
The entire sanctuary trembled!
"This can't be happening!" The Supreme Kai was startled as the collision of the two forces spread throughout the sacred realm.
With sharp battle cries, the two warriors rushed toward each other.
Bang bang bang! Countless punches were thrown in a single second. The strength of both fighters pierced through the void, their collisions creating turbulent shockwaves. High-speed air currents rushed past everyone's faces like countless sharp swords, leaving small cuts on exposed skin.
Immediately afterward, a rain of energy bombs spread out again, as if the sky above was covered by a torrential downpour. The rumbling brilliance shattered in everyone's ears.
The Supreme Kai also took action to resist the rain-like energy bombs, his heart beating rapidly as his breathing became tight.
"Boundless!" Raditz roared, his figure weaving through the chaotic energy bombardment. "Is this all you've got?!" His form spun gracefully as the energy bombs in his hands suddenly multiplied, launching toward his opponent like meteors or miniature suns.
In the contest of raw power, Raditz proved superior! His energy bombs overwhelmed Boundless, turning the mutual bombardment into a one-sided assault.
But Boundless grinned widely, showing his yellowed, decaying teeth, and laughed triumphantly. He spread his arms wide, his body becoming more energized after being hit by the energy attacks!
"Raditz, you're so stupid. You know I can absorb energy, but you keep sending it to... gah!"
His voice was cut off as Boundless spat out a mouthful of liquid—whether saliva or some kind of oil.
Raditz's fist was buried deep in his opponent's body, doubling him over. "So what if I give you all that energy? You have a powerful body, but you don't know how to use it properly."
With that, Raditz spun around and kicked Boundless away with devastating force. While their ki levels were indeed nearly equal in magnitude, after years of dedicated training, Raditz's fighting skills far surpassed those of Boundless.
A deep crater opened in the hard surface of the Sacred World of the Kai, and Boundless lay at its bottom, collapsed on the ground.
"Impossible... I consumed so many planets—how could I not be stronger than you!" Boundless's expression carried a hint of delirium and disbelief. He pounded the ground and stood up with a hideous snarl.
However, Raditz noticed that this creature's strength had increased slightly. His aura had grown stronger in his anger?!
Could it be that Boundless could improve his strength during battle?
Strictly speaking, Androids 17 and 18 were eternal-type artificial humans, and Metal Cooler could also be considered a product of eternal-type technology—the research results of cooperation between Boundless, Dr. Gero, and Big Gete Star.
Perhaps it was the eternal energy that limited the development of strength? But Boundless, who was obsessed with absorbing and evolving, had not adopted this design. His own evolution had gone in a completely different direction.
Raditz felt a surge of excitement.
Faced with increasing pressure, he found the motivation to push forward! He had been stuck at full Super Saiyan power for far too long, and it was time to surpass himself. The stronger Boundless became, the better it would be for him!
As if responding to Boundless's challenge, Raditz activated his telekinetic power to imprison his opponent and rushed forward.
The invisible force enveloped Boundless like a cage, making him suddenly freeze. The oncoming attacks were like thousands of flying shadows. Space itself seemed to distort as a series of strikes bombarded toward him. Boundless was forced into passive defense, retreating again and again.
Golden flames blazed around Raditz, and energy waves washed away like a tidal surge.
Boundless's anger reached its peak. "Get away from me!" He roared furiously and rushed toward Raditz, throwing a powerful punch. Raditz leaned his head to the side, letting the fist graze his cheek, and immediately countered with his own devastating punch.
With a sharp crack, Raditz jumped back after being hit, his feet carving deep marks in the ground as he slid backward.
"Hah." Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Raditz spread his arms wide with a fierce grin. "Can you get any stronger than this?"
