Chapter 410
The battle below grew more fierce, and the area of destruction grew wider.
Planet Hongshan's star core was operating crazily—like a water pump operating at full capacity—constantly transferring golden energy to support the strength of the planet's crust.
Haa!
Three dazzling flashes pierced the deep blue sky, and they intersected with each other, time after time, and erupted violently. Xiu! A ray of light suddenly streaked across the sea's surface, creating a huge chasm that was 100 meters wide. The blue sea water rose to incredible heights, and a few Ki pillars surged into the sky. They then turned into spraying water and descended as a flurry of pattering rain.
Xiaya was breathing heavily, and blood could be seen dripping down the corners of his mouth. Fighting such an intense battle for a long time had made his manner of breathing messy.
This was where the Super Saiyan transformation was not good. The higher the intensity of transformation, the stronger the burden on the body. Although Xiaya had already adapted to the Super Saiyan 2 state using his own method, he was helpless against Broly's extremely frenzied attacks.
"Bardock, how long can you hold on?"
Bardock shook his head sideways, smiling bitterly. "Not much time is left of Saiyan G.o.d transformation."
"Hold off your strength, and kill him in one shot!" Xiaya said, mentally prepared to fight and stake it all in one attack.
"Okay!"
They communicated briefly and attacked Broly separately. For a moment, lightning and flames covered the blue sky. Their field of view was covered with bright lights that sparkled like stars. The pressure was earth-shattering, making it seem as though the sky was going to collapse. The feeling was immensely oppressive.
Xiaya stepped on the air and arched his body, instantly arriving beside Broly. He turned his fist into a palm and pressed it against Broly's chest. The other hand grabbed his arm and pulled it hard. Broly's roared angrily, and his strong, muscular body was thrown Bardock's way by Xiaya. At that moment, Bardock was ready with a fist, which he smashed into the incoming Broly.
Bang! With a violent tremble, the overbearing fist force turned into transparent shock waves that spread out in circular wave-like cyclones, along the surface level.
Rumble!
A huge crater appeared on the ground, and huge cracks spread from it for several kilometers.
"Huu Huu Huu!"
The ground suddenly blew open, and Broly soared up from it. His body exuded a light-green flame aura. He looked at Xiaya, with a cold glint flickering in his eyes, and gave a m.u.f.fled roar.
"Roarrrr! Kill, kill… Kakarrot…"
Suddenly, Broly turned crazy again, repeatedly muttering "Kakarrot". The light-green flame aura emanating from his body expanded, and suddenly, the sky was filled with clouds; it was as though the end of the world had arrived..
"Peng! Peng! Peng!"
It was getting stronger and stronger.
Planet Hongshan was unable to bear it and shook violently. The rampaging energy caused stones to float, as they had broken away from the force of gravity. Mountains and rivers collapsed with loud bangs, the oceans seethed violently, and billowing waves battered the sh.o.r.e.
Not far away, the dozen or so Saiyan G.o.ds, who had on fiery expressions, could only stare wide-eyed.
They already realized that if they were to enter the high-intensity energy field caused by Xiaya and Broly's battle, Saiyan G.o.ds like them, who had only Super Saiyan level strength, would not even have a little impact; instead, they may end up getting crushed by the tyrannical and merciless energy.
"Really! In such an intense battle, we have no chance to intervene!" Sadie, who had turned into Saiyan G.o.d, swallowed bitterly as his throat was a little dry.
Muying sighed. "I can't even see their movements clearly!"
The Saiyan G.o.ds looked unwilling. They had thought their Saiyan G.o.d transformations would grant them the strength to protect Planet Hongshan, but every time they countered a strong enemy, they would still need Sir Xiaya to take action, as they could only hide far away. To Saiyans, who considered fighting as honor, this was humiliating.
It is reasonable to say that Muying and the other Saiyan G.o.ds were strong enough. In ordinary times, guarding Planet Hongshan was not a problem, at all, but presently, it was Broly—whose strength surpa.s.sed the norm—that was attacking Planet Hongshan. In front of Broly, even Super Saiyan 2 was useless.
"Haha, destroy… destroy!"
Broly looked crazy. As he laughed maniacally, his body soared through the air, and his chaotic aura was wrapped around him like a piece of armor. With a speed as fast as lightening's, he flew towards Bardock.
Broly's fist flashed, and lightning that crackled above it was strong enough to destroy the world.
One hit weighed eighteen thousand kilograms.
Broly's strength had already exceeded that of an ordinary Super Saiyan 2. It was close to that of Super Saiyan 3—no, he was already Super Saiyan 3!!
Xiaya's eyes widened. He hadn't expected Broly to be so powerful; even Majin Buu, who would have just woken up, would be only this strong. Gritting his teeth, Xiaya instantly teleported, appearing between Broly and Bardock, after which he opened his palms and roared angrily:
"s.p.a.cetime Freeze!"
In an instant, the sky, ground, and even the chaotic Ki flows became a glittering, translucent ice-blue color. In the area of s.p.a.cetime Freeze, Broly, who had already his fist, was frozen in midair, and the lightning around his fist had turned solid.
"Broly, disappear from the universe!!"
With a loud roar, and cold light flickering in his eyes, Xiaya coldly snorted and thrust his palms towards Broly. A majestic and boundless power surged from his palm, and the ice-blue s.p.a.ce-time began to distort under its influence, turning into crystal drops.
Gaining the upper hand for a moment had allowed Xiaya taka a dominant position.
Bang!
Boom!!
Broly's fist collided with Xiaya's palm, and waves of violently energy exploded. It was at this moment that the majestic power displayed its effect. Kacha! Broly's expression of fury finally changed. The fist that collided with Xiaya's palm got deformed, and its five fingers sank inward.
"Ahhhh!!" Broly let out a painful roar as his body shot backwards.
"Finally know pain?" Xiaya coldly snorted. He knew that this blow had dealt much more than a small injury to Broly!
At the same time, the power in Broly's attack pa.s.sed through Xiaya's body and flowed downward. Although it had weakened and divided into two unequal parts as it pressed downward—because of Xiaya's existence in the middle—its destructive power could still not be underestimated.
The imposing aura surged downward and struck the bottom of the sea. Rumble! A loud sound bang resounded, and the entire sea surface collapsed downward, revealing a huge depression with a diameter of tens of kilometers below.
Gigantic waves surged out in every direction…
Bardock had been lucky enough to avoid a calamity because Xiaya's sudden intervention. Thus, he did not hesitate, unwilling to waste the opportunity.
Right when his Saiyan G.o.d state was about to fade, Bardock roared and stirred all the power in his body, causing it to erupt. For a moment, only a vast expanse of crimson light rising into the sky could be seen in the horizon, like a Roc bathed in flames. In the sky, a wave of energy that was filled with a frightening amount of power streaked towards Broly.
Rumble! The mountains and rivers collapsed with a loud bang, and the ground suddenly sank, causing layers to soil to erupt outward.
Time seemed to have become still, and then, a huge, dazzling rays of light tore through the clouds, instantly illuminating the entire planet. The dazzling light and the energy waves covered the entire planet. The strong vibrations actually caused the planet to stop revolving for a moment.
The turmoil stopped, and the sand and smoke dispersed.
The ground seems to have undergone a great change. The mountains and rivers that were originally integrated as a whole had collapsed, and the green forest covering the entire mainland had disappeared. The scenery reflected in the eyes has become a vast yellow desert.
Although Bardock was panting, he still hovered in an upright position. His face was covered with sweat and dust.
Xiaya knew that Bardock's Super Saiyan G.o.d state had reached its limit and could no longer be used in the battle, so he waved and said to Bardock with a serious tone, "You leave first; I got this!"
"Okay, you must be careful, Sir Xiaya!"
Although somewhat regretful, Bardock knew that he would not have any impact there even if he stayed, so he nodded and left, albeit unwillingly.
After sending Bardock off the battlefield with his eyes, Xiaya took a deep breath, and his gaze became sharper.
Now, he would have to fight with Broly on his own!
Broly suddenly jumped out from the ruins, raised his head, and roared, "Ahhhh!" The light green blazing aura turned chaotic. Thump. Thump. Thump. it was like the sound of a beating heart. The muscles on Broly's body expanded once again, and his body became even taller.
Xiaya's eyebrows creased, and he was shocked in his heart. "Where the h.e.l.l is the limit of a Legendary Super Saiyan. Why does he keep getting stronger?"
Even now, Xiaya had yet to understand the kind of existence that a Legendary Super Sayan was.
He was a Super Saiyan, too, but Bardock was obviously the world's first Super Saiyan—a traditional Super Saiyan like Xiaya. However, Broly's form was clearly different from the traditional Super Saiyan form!
The Legendary Super Saiyan was an unconventional transformation that appeared in the anime movies. Why would its fighting capabilities be superior to that of the Super Saiyan? It was simply a killing machine.
In the time that Xiaya spent pondering, Broly had completed
"Not good!" Xiaya reacted subconsciously.
He speedily deployed force in his legs and used the Time and s.p.a.ce ability, at the same time. In a flash, he had arrived in front of Broly, and a blue light flashed. Xiaya used his power excessively, but seeing a large number of energy waves surge with the flame aura scattering out, he yelled. As though they were dragons emerging out of the abyss, they violently whistled towards Broly, with powerful bearings.
Rumble!!
The endless energy waves smashed Broly from one area of the sky to another. Broly seemed unable to react, becoming a punching bag for others to train with. He let the attacks..h.i.t him without reacting.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Combo hits. Xiaya did not let go of the chance, attacking with his punches and kicks. Attacks descended from various angles… Broly's neck was twisted from the attacks, and it seemed he would be actually be defeated.
Things looked good, but Xiaya knew that he had to keep his guard up!
Suddenly—
"Roarrrrrr!!!"
Broly, who was hovering in midair, suddenly curled his body, then he arched his waist and began to roar bitterly.
His muscles trembled as he roared. With every howl, the waves of aura emanating from his body became majestic, making others dare not look straight at him!
Although one arm had been twisted in the previous attacks, faint arcs of electricity surged on his body; this was a distinctive feature of the Super Saiyan 2 transformation. Moreover, under Super Broly's crazy energy control, it exhibited a power that was no lesser than that of Super Saiyan 3.
Broly bared his teeth and looked at Xiaya, after which he began to laugh maniacally. He had already lost his rationality and continued to roar, akin to a beast that only fought.
As for the attack that Xiaya's recent bombardment, they seemed to have had some effect, but the effect was not too great!
Broly had completely disregarded it!
"d.a.m.n it!"
Xiaya's face turned pale. Fighting such a high-intensity battle for a long time has made his muscles ache, and his aura had turned chaotic.
The sky was overcast, and a huge amount of pressure had encased Planet Hongshan.
Even Xiling and the others, who were on the floating island in the higher dimension, could sense the heavy pressure below.
"How did become like this? Is Broly this powerful?" Myers's pretty face was filled with concern.
Xiling was silent. Her hands had been clenched into fists, which were trembling. However, their current physical condition could not allow them to intervene.
On the other side, Raditz was already scared stiff. He was lifelessly leaning on the edge of the island, looking down below with spiritless eyes. He has just grasped the basic use of Ki, but even so, he could feel that he was much more powerful than before. It was though his formidable aura could rip the sky apart instantly.
"So frightening; where the h.e.l.l has this monster came from!" Raditz muttered with a shudder.
What Vegeta? What Frieza? They had already been thrown to the back of his mind. Compared to Xiaya and Broly, who were fighting below, what did they even count as?
A loud rumble rang out in the sky. It was as though a thunderstorm had arrived, and countless arcs of purple lightning tore through the sky and struck the ground below.
Broly was completely immersed in the Insane Super Saiyan state. His strength was many times stronger than in the original work. Facing such an extremely formidable opponent, Xiaya did not dare to be even a little careless. He could only concentrate on fighting.
Against such opponents, just a moment of complacency could bring about irreparable consequences.
Xiaya could not afford to gamble; he could only do his best in every attack.
"Oh my. This battle has created quite a big activity; it is really intense."
Whis appeared in an inconspicuous place. He stood in midair with a scepter in his hand, and his maroon divine robe fluttered in the strong wind, making whoos.h.i.+ng sounds. Whis' blue eyes narrowed, and he smiled lightly. The fight in the distance did not cause him to feel any urgency, at all.
In fact, the battle between Xiaya and Broly was already at the level of Super Saiyan 3, but this meager strength was nothing in front of Whis. It must be known that G.o.d of Destruction Beerus could knock out a peak-state Super Saiyan 3 Goku with one karate chop. Not to mention that
Whis is who knows how many times stronger than Beerus.
In Whis' eyes, this battle, which others would consider extremely fierce, was nothing more than a child's play.
It was unable to arouse his interest.
"Tsk tsk. This Legendary Super Saiyan is just one step further from 'Demon', and compared to Xiaya's 'G.o.d', this Broly is much closer to that step," Whis exclaimed in admiration. However, he shook his head sideways."But, what a pity, this state in which one loses their rationality is not desirable!"
Whis felt pity.
If Broly could control his emotions, then the "Demon" state would be closer to Xiaya's "G.o.d" state. By then, changing from "Demon" to "G.o.d" would not necessarily be slow and far away.
In fact, he had already discerned that the so-called "Legendary Super Saiyan" was actually demon transforming into a lower version of "Super Saiyan G.o.d". However, it had many more advantages than the orthodox Super Saiyan.
On the other side, the battle between Xiaya and Broly had already reached a climax.
When Broly, whose consciousness had been overcome by madness, approached Xiaya, he was instantly attracted to Xiaya's aura, which he hated. This caused him to recklessly rush over.
Xiaya cursed. Facing Broly, he didn't dare tread lightly. His body flickered, and he waved his arms, causing a half-moon shaped energy wave filled with frightening power to appear. He knew that he could not injure Broly by solely relying on these energy waves. So when the energy waves approached Broly, he had already carried out further attacks.
When the gap in strength reached a certain level, skills lose their effects. No matter what abilities you have, I will break them with my fists. This meant ignoring skills and press on with just physical strength. It was the so-called physical strength breaking through everything. This was the case in the later stages of the Dragon Ball world.
But, it was unfortunate that, this time, the gap between Xiaya and the crazy Broly was not very big, and Broly even had a slight advantage. In such a situation, the role of skills had become apparent.
Xiaya fiercely rushed over, instantly closing the distance between him and Broly. And successfully landing a move, he quickly rushed away. The surrounding energy waves that struck Broly not only created a great momentum, but also served as good cover.
Broly was furious, and his berserk energy's surged through the sky. However, after his muscles expanded, Broly fell into a vicious cycle of muscles transforming. Although his strength had obviously improved, his speed was adversely affected.
Although Broly was not afraid of pain, the little injuries he sustained soon began to superimpose onto each other, and there inevitably was a limit where he would collapse.
Whis looked on calmly, following the battle with his eyes whilst muttering, "Um. Time was suspended for 0.1 seconds just now. This is how the time ability is utilized. It really has unexpected effects when using in fights, but the method by which it was controlled is still too rough…"
The world in Whis' eyes again shook a little, and an ice blue light ray flashed by.
"No, this time it was used too early. If it was used a little later, then power exhibited would have been greater."
In controlling time power, Whis was a master. In his eyes, Xiaya's technique of applying the Time power in battle was still very immature.
Demon Realm, s.p.a.ce-time courtyard.
Towa was in a garden's courtyard, sitting with both legs on one side of her magic staff. Her bat wing-like skirt freely hung down as she leisurely stared at the scenes in the void in front of her.
It was precisely the scenes of Xiaya and Broly battling on Planet Hongshan.
Towa charmingly smiled, and a pondering look appeared on her face. "Tsk, this Super Saiyan turned out to be so powerful. I didn't expect that! However, Broly is also not bad; It was worthwhile spending so much effort to send him. The Saiyan race is really wonderful. Well, it seems that my plan can commence now."
"Um?"
At this time, as Towa noticed Whis on Planet Hongshan, her countenance abruptly changed.
"What a surprise! Universe 7's angel is on Planet Hongshan. He is actually paying so much attention to that Super Saiyan!"
Towa's expression turned solemn. She thought for a moment and then waved her hand, dispersing the scenes in the void.
She had already formulated a plan in her heart; thus, she just needed to continue resurrecting the demon G.o.d, Demigra. 'It'll be best to avoid contact with the angel of Universe 7…'
On Planet Hongshan, Whis glanced at the void in surprise and nodded thoughtfully before turning back to look at Xiaya's side.
Xiaya's Super Saiyan 2 was different from the usual one. He had the support of the s.p.a.ce-time ability, together with his transformation which was half a level higher than the usual Super Saiyan transformation. At this time, the strength he displayed was equivalent to that of a Super Saiyan 3; it was almost on-par with Majin Buu's strength after his seal was removed.
Despite that, when facing the manic Broly, Xiaya still felt great pressure.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Xiaya and Broly's figures kept flas.h.i.+ng in the sky. Every time they made an appearance, it will be accompanied by deafening explosions. The invisible shock waves surged up and turned into an earth-shattering might.
Rumble!
Xiaya punched and hit Broly's body. Although Broly's eyes didn't have pupils, it didn't affect his vision. The expanded muscles all over Broly's body quivered. He roared and exerted force under his feet, launching himself towards Xiaya by relying on brute force only.
Then, after several successive punches, Xiaya's movements were interrupted halfway by Broly, following which the rhythm of the battle was lost.
It was almost fatal for the rhythm to be lost in a high-intensity battle. Fortunately, Xiaya used the s.p.a.ce-time ability to protect his body in time and was able to withstand most of Broly's crazy attacks. However, he was still seriously injured in many places, spurting a lot of blood from his mouth in the process. Hideous depressions appeared in some areas of his body, and the bones beneath were severely deformed.
Xiaya's face was cold as he endured the tremendous pain and teleported into the distance, separating from Broly by a few kilometres, and then he quickly swallowed a Senzu Bean, temporarily replenis.h.i.+ng his vitality.
Amidst the battlefield, Broly looked a little dazed, having suddenly lost his target.
At this time, Broly roared and the muscles all over his body quivered. It was quite frightening at first glance.
Broly flew into a rage after losing his target. Suddenly, he caught sight of an ice-coloured round surface hanging in the azure sky, and as if he found an opportunity to vent his anger on, his palms exerted some force and threw out a strong energy ball. As a result, violent fluctuations suddenly penetrated through Planet Hongshan's atmosphere and rushed towards the depths of the universe.
Xiaya felt puzzled for a bit, wondering what Broly was doing. Suddenly, his countenance changed drastically. "That direction, could it be…"
Sure enough, Xiaya's fears came true in the form of a resounding explosion.
Rumble!
The thunderous explosion resounded through the sky, accompanied by a dazzling light.
Everything returned to primal chaos, and a vacuum suddenly appeared in the sky.
A gentle breeze brushed by, and the clouds in a small area lay still in the sky.
In the distant sky, Xiaya horrifyingly discovered that Planet Meishan, which was previously drifting in the same orbit as Planet Hongshan, had disappeared. In its place were debris and broken stones which were left under the sunlight, twinkling like stars.
Planet Hongshan, which lost its companion star, was affected by the gravitational field and gradually deviated from its...o...b..t.
Xiaya's face was covered with dark clouds. He roared angrily and immediately appeared behind Broly. Then, he gathered Ki and released a big move.
"Tri-Beam!"
With a low roar, his whole body's Ki was condensed in his hand and then released in the form of Tri-Beam.
Tri-Beam was not the most powerful technique among all his moves, but it had the most penetrating and explosive power. Of course, to demonstrate its power, it also consumed too much Ki when released. Just now, it consumed all of Xiaya's remaining Ki.
The next moment, a pillar-shaped energy wave emerged.
The energy wave was s.h.i.+ning with bright white light, containing most of the Ki in Xiaya's body. It was extremely frightening. It was like a water jet, exerting a lot of pressure. Wherever it pa.s.sed, everything was crushed into a fine powder without any exception. Even Broly, who had lost his rationality, could subconsciously feel the danger.
However, Tri-Beam was too fast, and it was already too late to dodge by the time Broly discovered it. Broly instinctively put both hands before his chest in an attempt to release energy to withstand it.
Rumble! Rumble!
The bright light blotting out the sky and the sun stung the eyes, and unending fierce winds blew on the planet's surface. Planet Hongshan's core crazily operated, continuously supporting the planet's stability.
With a loud rumbling sound, the dispersed smoke and dust gradually subsided.
"Did it work?"
Xiaya squatted down and gasped heavily.
Suddenly, a sense of danger flashed in Xiaya's heart; following this sense of danger was a sharp pain, as an immense force—which was like a train—b.u.mped into Xiaya, causing him to fly out.
In an instant, he turned into a straight light ray!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several mountains were smashed in a row with the dust forming a tall sand wall of thousands of meters, leaving behind a deep and terrifying impacted area on the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Xiaya coughed as he lay paralyzed on his back amidst the sand and stones with a few drops of blood flowing out of the corners of his mouth. A heart-rending pain came from everywhere on his body.
"Not good, I can't continue fighting with this kind of injuries!"
Xiaya bitterly smiled and climbed up. After making just a little movement, a sharp heart-rending pain overwhelmed him. With casual sensing, Xiaya knew that his injuries were extremely serious.
The golden light on his head flickered a few times, barely maintaining the Super Saiyan state.
However, his body flopped to the ground once again.
He didn't expect that even the energy wave containing all of his Ki wasn't enough to defeat Broly.
'Is the Legendary Super Saiyan so strong?'
Xiaya raised his head and saw Broly appear in the air. Currently, Broly's condition was also extremely miserable. Broly's whole body was burnt into deformation by the high temperature and high heat energy. His whole body, from top to bottom, was covered with scars; half of his skin was as black as coal, and the other half was torn to shreds, dripping with blood—he looked very miserable.
Xiaya opened his eyes with difficulty and found that Broly didn't have much Ki left.
'This is good news.'
"d.a.m.n it, d.a.m.n it. Roarrrr!!" Broly raised his head and roared, and then, he crazily ascended high into the sky by 10,000 meters.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He began to condense his aura and cupped his hands as a s.h.i.+ning energy ball formed. A frightening and ominous aura began to gather.
Xiaya's eyes were half-opened as he lay on the ground, staring at the thickly dotted energy b.a.l.l.s high in the sky. He couldn't help but suck in a mouthful of chilly air. Normally, Xiaya naturally wouldn't care about these energy b.a.l.l.s, but he was currently completely exhausted and couldn't even muster a little strength.
"Broly this madman… is there really no way to defeat him?" Xiaya smiled bitterly.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
However, at this moment, Muying and other dozens of Saiyan G.o.ds all gathered.
"Sir Xiaya, leave the rest to us!"
"That's right!"
"We will defeat the Legendary Super Saiyan!"
With fervent cries, a dozen or more red-haired Saiyan G.o.ds gathered round in a circle. They were surging with pa.s.sion as they requested to fight. Planet Hongshan was also their home, and they didn't want to rely only on Xiaya to protect it; thus, they also wanted to play a role in the battle.
