Chapter 442: Seeing through the Super Kaio-Ken

“Gohan and Goten?”

When Piccolo mentioned these two names, Goku’s expression suddenly softened.

Piccolo thought Goku’s reaction was related to the names of his two children and immediately continued, “That’s right, Goku! Don’t forget about Gohan and Goten! They will be sad if you act like this!”

“So what?” Goku suddenly said.

“Huh?” Piccolo was momentarily stunned. “Goku, you…”

“I already told you, didn’t I? Don’t call me Goku! I am Saiyan Kakarot!”

Goku’s expression became fierce. “Piccolo, perhaps you don’t know, but for Saiyans, family means nothing! My parents threw me to Earth when I was still a child. Saiyans don’t care about their children!”

“Goku…Have you been corrupted by the Saiyan bloodline?”

“Enough with the nonsense!”

Goku shouted, transforming once again into a Super Saiyan. His stamina seemed to have recovered.

Vegeta, who was searching for Goku’s whereabouts in the distance, sensed Goku’s aura and immediately rushed over.

“Here he comes, hmph! It seems I have no choice but to use that technique!”

Goku elevated his aura again, this time transforming directly into Super Saiyan 3.

“Piccolo, step aside! I don’t want to waste unnecessary energy right now. You just stay there and watch how I kill everyone!”

“You… You ba*tard! Fine, I’ll watch closely!”

Reluctant, Piccolo could only turn away and leave, but Lin Chen noticed that Piccolo didn’t just move far away; he flew towards another direction.

In the direction he was heading, Lin Chen could sense the auras of Gohan and Trunks.

However, Lin Chen didn’t pay much attention to them because at this moment, Vegeta had found Goku.

The two destined rivals confronted each other once again.

In their previous encounter, Goku was clearly at a disadvantage against Vegeta’s 20x Super Kaio-Ken. However, this time, he seemed more prepared.

“Vegeta, I’ve seen through your Super Kaio-Ken.”

“What are you talking about? What’s there to see through in my Super Kaio-Ken?”

Vegeta sneered dismissively, and a red light instantly enveloped his entire body.

“Super Kaio-Ken, 20x!”

*Bang! Bang!*

The two instantly clashed in mid-air several times, releasing powerful energy attacks with their hands continuously.

As before, Vegeta still held the advantage.

But Goku’s performance had improved significantly compared to before. He didn’t engage in close combat but instead used Instant Transmission to constantly evade and create distance, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Explosions resembling cannon blasts echoed as debris scattered in all directions like bullets.

Boom!

Vegeta threw a powerful punch, and Goku swiftly dodged it with consecutive backflips, creating distance between them once again.

Vegeta could have pursued at this point, but for some reason, he stopped and spoke up.

“Kakarot, you looked quite confident, but why has your fighting style become much more passive?”

“It’s you who’s being passive, Vegeta! The playtime is over, I’ve seen through your tricks,” Goku laughed.

“What do you mean?”

“I’ve seen through your Super Saiyan 5th Grade. The true form of the Super Saiyan with black pupils is you returning to your normal state but maintaining the aura of a Super Saiyan! That’s how you can use the Kaio-Ken that a regular Super Saiyan’s body couldn’t handle!”

So, that’s how it is…

Above the clouds, Lin Chen squinted his eyes.

Goku’s explanation made everything clear to him. It turns out Vegeta had found a way to simultaneously maintain the aura of Super Saiyan without actually transforming.

This meant that his body was indeed free from the burden of the Super Saiyan transformation, enabling him to withstand the pressure of Kaio-Ken smoothly.

Vegeta’s transformation also led Lin Chen to speculate. Since Vegeta could retain the Super Saiyan’s aura, could he preserve other aspects as well?

At this moment, Goku below seemed to have more to say.

“However, Vegeta, your Super Saiyan 5th Grade should only be able to withstand up to 10x Kaio-ken, right? In other words, your Super Kaio-ken can only provide an immediate power level boost up to 10x.”

“But beyond 10x, your Super Saiyan 5th Grade won’t easily be able to counter the side effects of Kaio-Ken anymore! So, after 10x, you can only slowly increase your Kaio-Ken multiplier, allowing your body to adapt gradually. And at the peak of 20x Kaio-Ken, you can’t sustain it for too long. I’ve calculated; you can only endure for 15 seconds!”

“This is the true nature of your Super Kaio-Ken! Once you know the truth, it’s easy to deal with. From now on, I won’t give you any time to increase your Power Level!”

Goku’s words completely confirmed Lin Chen’s previous speculation.

Indeed, Lin Chen also noticed the anomaly in Vegeta’s aura during the battle. If we were to describe Vegeta’s aura using a waveform graph, during the fight with Goku, Vegeta’s aura consistently followed an undulating curve, rising and falling in a continuous loop.

Before, Lin Chen didn’t understand the reason, but now he understood. Vegeta’s Super Kaio-Ken needed adaptation time and could only last for a dozen seconds.

This was a significant flaw, nearly impossible to compensate for.

However, just as it seemed Vegeta was at a dead end, unexpectedly, he pulled out a new trump card once again.

“Ha!”

Boom!

A blinding flash of golden light erupted out, causing Goku, who was preparing to attack from far away, to come to a halt in mid-air in shock.

Vegeta let out a loud roar, and his energy surged, causing his upright hair to grow wildly as if gone mad, instantly extending down to his waist, while his golden eyebrows disappeared.

Vegeta was unmistakably in Super Saiyan 3 form!

It turned out that in this world, Vegeta had also mastered Super Saiyan 3 transformation!

However, a transformation of the same level was impossible to win against Goku!

Vegeta’s body flashed in the void, initiating the attack.

But these attacks were far less threatening than the previous 20x Super Kaio-Ken.

Goku smiled evilly, swiftly dodging them. At the same time, his fist slashed through the air, and he began to counterattack.

The fluid and seamless attacks were like flowing clouds, overwhelming Vegeta, causing him to be disoriented and in a state of chaos.

Suddenly, Goku lifted his leg, imbued with a chilling aura, viciously kicking Vegeta in the abdomen.

As Vegeta was sent flying, Goku relentlessly followed, swiftly circling behind him. A powerful flying kick struck Vegeta’s back, sending him flying far away before finally coming to a stop. f𝚛e𝐞𝐰𝚎b𝚗o𝚟𝚎l.c𝗼m

“Vegeta, you brought me many surprises. But it seems your plan to consume my stamina with Super Kaio-Ken and then use Super Saiyan 3 to decide the outcome of the battle has failed. As you are now, you can’t possibly defeat me!”
