Vegeta, his pride deeply wounded, refused to be suppressed any longer. In this moment, his potential was unleashed, along with a complete eruption of the negative emotions he had bottled up over the past year.
Just moments ago, his power level had only been around 12,000. But now, in this explosive state, his power level skyrocketed to 14,000!
And it kept climbing, rising to 15,000!
His aura slowly began to equal Talot and Salari.
However, neither Talot nor Salari had even released more than a fraction of their aura.
“You’re tough, I’ll give you that. But even though you’ve made a breakthrough, it’s only to this extent. Compared to us, you’re still far behind!”
“Brother Talot, I don’t want to tease him anymore. It’s boring.”
Talot gave a calm smile, showing no intention of overwhelming Vegeta completely. But Salari clearly had other ideas.
BOOM!!!
Salari’s aura once again soared to unprecedented heights. The sheer destructive force of her power caused violent tremors across a radius of several kilometers.
In that instant, Vegeta’s expression changed drastically, and the number on his scouter began to rapidly increase.
Beep beep beep beep!!!
Beep beep beep beep!!!
16,000… 18,000… 20,000… 22,000…!
BANG!!!
With a loud explosion, Vegeta’s scouter shattered under the strain of surpassing its computational limit.
The scouter exploded, undoubtedly telling Vegeta that their power level was far beyond 22,000!
In truth, Talot’s power level was significantly higher, but Salari’s was only 22,000—just enough to overload the scouter.
“Th-this… impossible!! How… how did you two achieve this?!” Vegeta’s mind trembled as the expression in his eyes while he looked at Talot and Salari changed.
Fear. Disbelief!
If it were a higher-class Saiyan surpassing him, he could have maintained some composure.
But for a low-class warrior, and a woman no less, to unleash such terrifying power, leaving him—the Saiyan Prince—so far behind…
This shouldn’t be possible!
Unwilling to accept reality, Vegeta suppressed the fear surging in his heart. Somehow, he mustered the courage—though it was unclear from where—and swung his fist at Salari’s face.
It was as if he wanted to confirm whether the numbers on the scouter were real, if he was dreaming, or if Salari and Talot were playing some sort of trick.
BANG!!!
The punch was effortlessly blocked by Salari.
With his first attack blocked, Vegeta gritted his teeth angrily and launched a flurry of powerful attacks.
His relentless assault was as fast as lightning, a storm of attacks aimed directly at Salari.
Vegeta is still quite young, but the combat talent he has shown is already quite terrifying.
Just looking at his current combat style, among those of the same level, not to mention being invincible, there are very few who can compete with him.
But unfortunately, Salari’s power level and combat abilities were leagues beyond the current Vegeta.
She casually dodged all of Vegeta’s attacks, and then without hesitation, Salari decided to counterattack.
It was an unremarkable punch—ordinary in every sense.
BANG!!!
That single punch struck Vegeta squarely in the stomach.
Vegeta’s movements immediately turned sluggish, his body stiffening.
His eyes turned bloodshot, the veins on his forehead bulging as his expression contorted into a mask of agony.
After a two-second pause, a sweet taste surged up Vegeta’s throat. Judging by his expression, he was on the verge of vomiting.
But through sheer force of will, Vegeta swallowed the blood that was threatening to spill from his mouth.
“To take one of my punches and stay standing… you’ve slightly impressed me,” Salari remarked nonchalantly, then she gathered her strength and delivered a forceful kick that sent him flying.
She showed no mercy.
Salari had long since discarded the Saiyan’s outdated notions of class hierarchy, so even defeating the Prince Vegeta brought her no sense of accomplishment.
CRASH!!!
Vegeta’s body hurtled through the air, slamming into the ruins of a nearby building. His fate was far worse than Nappa’s had been earlier.
As Vegeta crashed into the building, the entire ruined building collapsed with a loud bang. In an instant, the air was filled with smoke and dust.
The ground shook violently for a long time.
“Vegeta… was defeated by Salari so easily?!” Raditz, who had been watching the fight, was utterly dumbfounded.
If Salari was this strong, then how powerful was Talot?
Was this really the same Talot he once knew? Was this even the same Salari?
If his own scouter hadn’t exploded from exceeding its computational limit, he would have kept trying to measure just how high their power levels truly were.
It was unbelievable!
At this moment, Talot turned to look at Raditz, a smile still on his face.
This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Actually, he had planned to do it himself, but Vegeta went and provoked Salari.
BOOOOM!!!
Suddenly, the entire area began to tremble violently due to a terrifying surge of power.
Talot’s gaze shifted back toward the ruins where Vegeta had been buried.
As waves of energy rolled outward, boulders were sent flying in every direction.
At the center of the ruins, Vegeta, battered and disheveled, rose into the sky with a ferocious expression, glaring at Salari.
A white and purple aura swirled around him, crackling with electricity as the energy surged.
“I am…..the Prince of Saiyans!!!”
Vegeta roared, his voice strained, as he took a stance to unleash his energy.
Fueled by the intense provocation from Salari, Vegeta’s potential was further unleashed, causing his power level to skyrocket to a shocking 18,000!
This was the exact power level he possessed during the original storyline.
Driven to the brink, he was determined to prove himself.
Unfortunately, this power was not stable, but rather a temporary boost.
“Die!!! Galick…..Gun!!!”
Gathering the maximum energy that he could, Vegeta thrust his hands forward. A massive, white-purple destructive energy beam shot toward Salari with a world-shattering power.
Salari, however, did not show the slightest fear.
