"Whoa…" Goku carefully felt the aftereffects of the energy just released.
"His current power… is actually above mine!" But immediately, Goku reacted.
"Being above me is actually normal… this guy's base strength has always been higher than my normal level…" Goku analyzed carefully.
"Now that I've transformed into Super Saiyan, only then can I achieve an overwhelming effect against him…"
"But… Zamasu absorbed the Bulza light from the moon and transformed into the Great Ape… his strength has clearly increased."
"He may even have reached a state on par with mine!"
Goku dusted himself off and readied his battle stance once more, preparing for the next clash with Zamasu.
Meanwhile, Zamasu, in his Great Ape form, relied on the last remnants of his consciousness to instinctively attack.
His wildly swinging fists left the surrounding area in chaos—rocks were smashed to pieces, and even some outer town buildings collapsed one by one.
The fists struck at Goku again and again, but he skillfully avoided them using his speed and agility.
Occasionally, Zamasu would launch ki blasts at him. While not lethal, two fighters of nearly equal strength hitting each other would still sustain significant damage.
Under Goku's attacks, the Great Ape Zamasu let out a fierce roar.
"Yo! What's wrong? You look like it hurts a lot," Goku said with narrowed eyes, mocking.
Only now did he realize that the Great Ape hadn't increased its defense all that much.
Actually, that was only relative to Goku. For anyone else, the defensive boost of Zamasu's Great Ape transformation was like the difference between heaven and earth.
"Roar!" A glimmer of sharpness flashed in Zamasu's crimson eyes, showing that his consciousness had recovered slightly.
It was enough for normal combat, though fine-tuned control was still difficult.
He gathered a large mass of energy in his mouth, preparing for his next attack.
Noticing Zamasu's actions and energy flow, Goku realized this guy still wanted to exchange blows.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're not learning a lesson at all, huh?" Goku dodged attacks while teasing him.
Then he enveloped his whole body in Super Saiyan energy, preparing for close combat—a melee showdown.
Attacking such a massive opponent up close would be exhausting, and hitting him would be extremely difficult.
That's because Goku's speed was just too fast.
"Haven't you heard the saying? Never trade blows with a Son family member—you'll never gain any advantage…" Goku hovered midair, charging ki blasts in his hands.
He intended to interrupt Zamasu's next strike before it was released.
But unexpectedly…
Zamasu suddenly shot out the ki blast he had been charging in his mouth, catching Goku off guard.
"What!" Realizing he'd been hit, Goku immediately unleashed the energy blast he had been accumulating in his hands.
The two ki blasts collided, sending a wave of smoke and shock outward.
"Damn it, I can't see!" Goku rubbed his eyes, trapped in the smoke. He had to get out fast.
In that brief moment, Zamasu found his opportunity, leaping forward and grabbing Goku with his massive hand.
"Roar!" The Great Ape Zamasu roared to assert its power.
Then he twisted with all his strength, trying to crush Goku's body.
"Ah!" Feeling an immense force, Goku was wracked with pain, as if his bones were about to be crushed.
The roars of struggle carried far, reaching the ears of Flandre and the others.
"Did you hear that? What's that sound?" Ning Rongrong stepped forward, sensing familiarity but unable to place it.
"Goku!" Zhu Zhuqing immediately recognized the voice. She activated her Spirit and flew using Cloud Walking.
They had already experienced enough in the past few days—any more incidents would be overwhelming.
"Hey! Zhu Zhuqing, wait for us!" Ning Rongrong shouted behind, confused by Zhu Zhuqing's sudden urgency.
"Could it be that guy got into some trouble?" Dai Mubai quickly calculated in his mind: That would be great—if this arrogant guy angered high-level soul masters…
"That sound is definitely Son Goku's voice…" Tang San said quietly.
"Heh… what goes around comes around. But fine, this also eliminates a future enemy for me," Tang San smirked evilly.
He grabbed Xiao Wu and quickly flew toward the source of the voice, eager to see Goku's plight.
Goku had caused him plenty of humiliation.
"What should we do? Sigh… all we can do is pray he doesn't die," Xiao Wu silently prayed, given Goku's previous display of strength.
She understood well that no ordinary human could exhibit such power.
Moreover, when Zhu Zhuqing had cut Goku's tail earlier, Xiao Wu had glanced at him briefly.
At that time, she realized Goku was also a reforged humanoid soul beast, only far stronger than her, which is why it had gone unnoticed.
Xiao Wu's feelings were understandable—like suddenly meeting someone from your hometown while being far away.
The group rushed immediately to the battlefield where Goku was fighting Zamasu.
"Ah!" Goku screamed in pain, pinched in Zamasu's grip.
"Roar, roar, roar!" Zamasu bellowed, his eyes deepening in crimson.
He increased his grip, trying to crush Goku quickly.
"You're getting a little overconfident!" Goku shouted, golden aura boiling around him.
He stored his energy in his dantian, then burst it outward through his entire body.
It formed a kind of self-explosion-like technique—not as extreme as true self-destruction, just a large-scale shockwave.
Caught off guard by the sudden energy surge, Zamasu let go, allowing Goku to break free.
"My god… size really does give an advantage…" Goku used the energy to heal the marks from being pinched.
"Heaven gave me speed, but also gave him the proper strength… seems God is fair…"
Goku panted heavily, his golden aura dimmed slightly from the earlier attack.
"I have to take this seriously—otherwise, I'm staying here today!" Goku focused, hands together, then slowly separated, condensing a small sphere of energy between his palms.
It was a technique he had created over several years—unlike other moves borrowed or learned from others.
