There is no doubt that Super Saiyan 3 is stronger than Super Saiyan 2, but it was the first time that Vegeta had transformed, moreover he was only able to do it with quite a difficulty, so essentially he still hasn’t completely mastered it. While Xiang saying that his form is Super Saiyan 2 is actually a little incorrect.
Xiang has been imitating Xiaya for many years, looking forward to the day when he will hone Super Saiyan 2 to Full Power level, which will be comparable to the power of Super Saiyan 3.
But in the end, Xiang’s luck was not as good as Xiaya’s, after all his foundation is not as solid as Xiaya’s. Therefore, after working hard for a few years, Xiang discovered that he couldn’t achieve Full Power Super Saiyan 2 form which “theoretically shouldn’t exist”, so he changed his direction and followed his mother Xiling’s path, and specially added the part of refining divinity to his training.
Not to mention, this result is very significant as at least it made his super Saiyan 2 transformation much stronger.
During the three years of bitter training, although he couldn’t fully devote himself to training because of Caulifla and Kale, Xiling and Myers’ guidance was not useless. Under their guidance, Xiang was advancing towards the most correct path, and maybe will be able to reach the Mysterious State of Super Saiyan.
Buzz, Xiang released his aura, causing Vegeta’s expression to suddenly change. He had abundant experience and knew that the longer the delay, the more disadvantageous it would be for him, so he gritted his teeth and created a powerful energy wave to attack him.
Rumble!
A powerful aura spread out which caused the scene to immediately turn extremely chaotic.
An immense pressure shrouded an area of 1km, like a pot lid covering the hearts of everyone, corroding the body and mind. All the people present felt difficulty breathing, and their faces gradually turned pale.
…
Underworld, Heaven.
Countless experts of the Underworld were gathered around Grand Kai, watching the scenes of the match transmitted over from Planet Hongshan. After seeing the fierce battle between Vegeta and Xiang, all of them swallowed their saliva and felt their scalps tingle.
The previous fight between Goku and Majin Buu had already shocked them.
The current fight was not inferior to the fight just now, and it made them tremble.
How many experts are there on Planet Hongshan in the world of the living?
“Too terrifying, none of them is weak!”
“How can those Saiyans be so powerful?”
“Yeah, what’s wrong with this era? Experts like this haven’t appeared in the Underworld for countless years!”
Pikkon and other Underworld experts felt that they had lived in vain for so long, especially Pikkon. He knew that on Planet Hongshan, Xiaya, Xiling, and Myers were the real experts. When he fought against Bojack more than 20 years ago, if it weren’t for them, it would have been impossible for them to come back safely.
Grand Kai stroked his gray beard as the eyes under the sunglasses watched the match with a serious look.
“No wonder the two Supreme Kai-sama also went to Planet Hongshan in person. If they knew that there were such experts in the mortal world, the gods would be in disarray.”
Fortunately, judging from the current situation, Supreme Kai seems to have a good relationship with the important people of Planet Hongshan.
…
Planet Hongshan, in the arena.
The battle between Vegeta and Xiang was still going on, but as time went by, the situation became more and more unfavorable for Vegeta. After exploding out with so much power before, Vegeta gradually got exhausted.
“It looks like Xiang is going to win this match.” 18 sitting next to Xiling, slightly narrowed her blue-like sapphire eyes and revealed a smile.
Xiaya nodded, “Xiang has already embarked on the path of training divinity, but this path is very tough.”
The path of training divinity is full of bumps, and most people cannot reach the end or give up halfway or stagnate in the middle, or halfway fall into an evil path.
Xiaya, who has successfully completed the path of training divinity, is the most qualified to evaluate these. After all, even though Xiling and Myers had the assistance of Whis and Creating God Star, they were still idling away at that last step. Stepping across is like the difference between heaven and earth. That’s not comparable to the Super Saiyan God which relies on fusion, but the real Divine Realm.
18 didn’t train her divinity, so she naturally is not able to understand how hard it is.
Her strength, apart from a little coming from merging, is trained by herself. I have to say that the physique of Androids is really magical. She was originally just an ordinary earthling, but after she was transformed into an Android, she obtained a physique surpassing a Saiyan’s. One must know that even Saiyans will reach a bottleneck when their Battle Power reaches a few hundred thousand and only a few people could break through it, but 18, not only can she break through, it seems that she also has no limits, and her strength can keep rising.
Thinking of this, Xiaya couldn’t help but wonder whether the Androids, this magical existence, especially those with endless energy like 17 and 18, could have been transformed by Dr. Gero alone with his wisdom? Could it have been with the help of external power?
Returning back to the present, seeing the two people fighting hard below, old Supreme Kai and East Supreme Kai looked quite emotional, continuously nodding and shaking their heads.
Only after coming to Planet Hongshan, did they really understand how terrifying the mortals in the mortal world are.
Especially East Supreme Kai, his face turned red on remembering his previous naive thoughts.
He used to be afraid of Majin Buu, but now he suddenly found that among the mortals alone, there are three or four powerful people with strength comparable to Majin Buu, not including God of Destruction-sama and his wives.
“As expected of the son of God of Destruction-sama, his strength is really terrifying.” The old Supreme Kai looked amiable, compared to the evil path of Vegeta’s transformation, Xiang had clearly stepped into the path of training divinity which gained his good impression.
The later stage of training divinity path is Super Saiyan “Mysterious State”, which is a very profound realm.
On top of that, his identity is that of the son of God of Destruction, so the old Supreme Kai looked at him in a more favorable light.
As expected of God of Destruction-sama’s children. Besides Xiang, God of Destruction-sama has two daughters who are also very exceptional. Old Supreme Kai could see that the girl named Meifei, if not for bad luck, could have also shown terrifying strength. She might also be a Majin Buu-level expert.
…
Vegeta’s battle with Xiang ended.
Unfortunately, Vegeta lost by just a little bit and his path in the tournament ended here.
“What a pity Vegeta, if you could have just held on for a while longer, you might have won.” Goku regretfully said while giving a Senzu Bean to Vegeta after he came down.
Vegeta ate the Senzu Bean and his strength returned to its peak state, and then snorted coldly. He is not someone who can’t afford a loss. He hasn’t lost enough times ever since he came to Earth.
“Humph, don’t be arrogant Kakarrot, that kid Xiang is really strong. If you’re not careful, you could lose to him.”
Goku clenched his fist and struck his palm, his eyes resolute: “I will do my best.”
“Humph!” Vegeta turned around and walked over to the other side, then he crossed his arms and pondered. He had clearly transformed into Super Saiyan 3, and his strength had grown by so much, so why did he still lose to Xiang who was in Super Saiyan 2 form? What’s the secret behind it?
Vegeta pondered, recalling the previous fight.
“Theoretically, Super Saiyan 3 is stronger than Super Saiyan 2, but I still lost. Besides it being because of my Normal State Battle Power, the important reason could be that Xiang’s Super Saiyan 2 is not the same as the ordinary transformation. It is not like just blindly advancing from Super Saiyan 1.”
“The later development of Super Saiyan may not be just blindly advancing through superimposing.”
“Super Saiyan 3 transformation is suitable for Kakarrot, but not for me.”
“I should find a new method with Super Saiyan 2 as the foundation.”
He suddenly opened his eyes and light flashed in his mind. Vegeta seemed to have figured out something. Maybe Super Saiyan 3 is not as perfect as it seems, after all, it is too burdensome on the body.
Faintly, Vegeta could see a wider path.
Turning to look at Goku, who was eagerly waiting for the next match, Vegeta’s mouth curled into a smile: “Kakarrot, you may really lose to me this time!”
Vegeta is being real smug considering he just got his ass handed to him by a kid almost 20 years his junior.
Author really doesn’t like Goku XD
