Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Chapter 201 Continuous Qi Blasts! A Daring Fighting Style

With the conclusion of the second quarterfinal match, the third quarterfinal match began, featuring Klin against the Werewolf.

This match can be said to be a foregone conclusion.

Werewolves are indeed much stronger than ordinary people; even seasoned fighters are not necessarily their match.

In the original work, he did indeed demonstrate outstanding abilities.

Unfortunately, how could he possibly gain the upper hand against Klin now?

Klin easily eliminated him with a single finger.

After an easy advancement, they will face the fourth quarterfinal match.

Neru vs. Tien Shinhan!

……

On the arena.

Neru and Tien Shinhan looked at each other, their faces beaming with friendly smiles.

Because of Tien Shinhan's exceptional performance in previous matches, his appearance on stage immediately ignited the entire arena, with countless spectators cheering him on.

Of course, Tien Shinhan and Nairo will not be affected.

"It's an honor to fight you. In the upcoming battle, please don't hold back and fight me with all your might," Nail humbly requested of Tien Shinhan.

"Of course, I will give it my all in this battle, and so will you. Let me see the power of the Namekians," Tien Shinhan said excitedly.

Both men had burning fighting spirit in their eyes and high expectations for this duel.

"The fourth match, the round of 16 to 8... begins!!"

With a whistle from the blond referee, the highly anticipated match began.

*Whoosh!*

*Whoosh!*

"boom!!!"

Tien Shinhan and Nail charged at each other simultaneously. With their first collision, the entire arena shook, and a powerful shockwave swept in all directions.

Feeling the weight of the blow, the two couldn't help but reveal the same smile.

Intense battle erupts!

Tien Shinhan and Nail attacked simultaneously, both displaying superb fighting skills. Their dense offensive, like a rain of pear blossoms, swept towards each other.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!..." The muffled sounds of limbs colliding were so terrifying that each collision between the two caused ripples in the space.

Nail went all out, using his strongest abilities to launch a full-scale attack on Tien Shinhan.

His attack moves are not as fierce and terrifying as Piccolo's; instead, they have a hint of Goku's style, leaving himself a great deal of room to maneuver while attacking.

This is a fighting style that Neru came up with on his own after countless sparring sessions with Lagar. Although it is quite good, it ultimately lacks the tempering of life and death. This fighting style seems to be flawless, but in reality, it is far from being perfect.

In contrast, Tien Shinhan's fighting style is fierce, his defense is also quite good, and he is even better than Nail in terms of offense.

Not only that, he hasn't used his full strength yet; he's only using half of his power to deal with Neru.

If converted into a combat power index, it would be a whopping 4000 million points!

Of course, even with only half his strength, Tien Shinhan wouldn't be able to easily suppress Nail.

After exchanging blows for several rounds, both sides figured out each other's fighting style.

At the same time, the two men gathered their strength and threw punches, striking each other's faces.

Bang!!! Tien Shinhan's iron fist struck Nail squarely in the face.

"Bang!!" Nail's heavy punch landed on Tien Shinhan's cheek.

Both were struck by the force and knocked back several meters.

A trickle of blood slid from the corner of their mouths.

"Your strength is indeed impressive!" Nail wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said to Tien Shinhan.

"You're not bad either; that punch was incredibly powerful," Tien Shinhan praised Nail's strength.

This round of confrontation is now over.

Neither side made the first move, and the two watched each other from a distance, their auras rising steadily, ready to strike.

The previous battle was just a warm-up, a test between them. Now that they have figured out each other's fighting style, it's time to fight seriously.

"Haaaaaah!!!"

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Tien Shinhan and Nail simultaneously erupted in a hysterical scream, their auras rising sharply.

Naru unleashed the dormant power of the Dragon God within him, resulting in an explosive increase in his combat strength.

Although not as powerful as Ragar, with the addition of this power, his strength will be greatly enhanced.

Tien Shinhan sensed Nail's change and gave it his all to fight Nail.

The combined power of the two erupted into a fierce and terrifying storm, sweeping in all directions, causing the entire Papaya Island to tremble violently under their force.

……

In the backstage rest area, the virtual reality glasses worn by Serarri and Raditz also displayed their combat power indexes in real time.

"Is this his full strength? It's truly astonishing, especially Neru. In just a few short years, his combat power has reached this level, exceeding 9000 million points!!" Serari was shocked by the powerful combat strength Neru displayed.

9000 million combat power points is very close to a hundred million.

This level of combat power is already comparable to her current normal full strength.

If she were to fight Nail head-on without transforming into a Super Saiyan, she would probably have a hard time winning.

"Judging from this, Tien Shinhan's situation seems to be very bad. His combat power is only a little over 8000 million points, which is nearly 1000 million points less than Nail's," Raditz said from the side.

While combat strength is not the absolute factor determining the outcome of a battle, it is certainly crucial.

A difference of ten million points in combat power is no small difference.

However, Raditz believes that Tien Shinhan definitely has some hidden tricks up his sleeve.

After all, he trained with King Kai for so long, he must have learned King Kai's most powerful skills.

As for how much he can bring out, that depends on Tien Shinhan's comprehension.

"Tien Shinhan and Nail are both incredibly strong. I really want to fight them!" Goku said with high spirits.

The previous battle with Piccolo had ignited the dormant fighting spirit within him.

Now, watching Tien Shinhan and Nail's fight makes him itchy to fight as well.

Meanwhile, Vegeta wasn't paying attention to the battle; instead, he kept his eyes fixed on Ragar.

Piccolo and Nair's strengths have been determined; now he wants to know what level Ragal can reach.

His intuition, typical of the Russian people, told him that this guy was no ordinary person.

[It seems participating in this World Martial Arts Tournament was the right choice; it's getting more and more interesting.] Vegeta's lips curled slightly, filled with anticipation for his next two matches.

His next opponent is a guy named Dinosaur Superman.

To him, this kind of thing could be easily defeated with a single finger; he didn't care about it at all.

We'll see who he faces in the quarterfinals and semifinals.

Ideally, it would be this Namekian.

In Vegeta's view, his final opponents are nothing more than Raditz and Tarot.

He even excluded Seraril.

……

On the arena.

Tien Shinhan and Nail's bursts of energy reached their peak.

Both of them exuded a powerful aura, but Tien Shinhan was clearly slightly inferior.

"It seems my aura is stronger," Neru said confidently, having gained a basic grasp of the Dragon God's power.

"The strength of one's aura is not the main factor in determining the outcome of a battle. Let's fight!!" Tien Shinhan assumed a fighting stance, ready for battle.

"I couldn't be happier, so let's start again!!" Nail roared, his aura surging out like a torrent, pressing down on Tien Shinhan.

Sensing the immense pressure of this aura, Tien Shinhan's expression changed, and he simultaneously unleashed his own aura to resist.

A deafening roar erupted.

The clash of auras between two top-tier powerhouses undoubtedly caused a catastrophic upheaval.

The people in the stands were unaffected, but the blond referee was in a tough spot.

Even after retreating to a relatively safe area, they were still affected by this powerful aura, blown against the wall and unable to move.

Nair's continuous bursts of energy put pressure on Tien Shinhan, who, not to be outdone, responded with his own energy attacks.

Seeing that the pressure of his aura had failed to work, Nail took the initiative to attack, releasing a golden energy blast with immense destructive power towards Tien Shinhan.

Tien Shinhan aimed his right index finger at the energy blast and unleashed the Dodon Wave.

Boom! The two energies collided in the center of the arena, and the shockwave from the explosion unleashed an astonishing burst of lightning.

At the same time, the two used super-fast movement to disappear from their original positions and quickly swooped down towards each other, smashing their iron fists, which were filled with all their strength, down at each other.

The shockwave from the clash of fists shook the surrounding area, and the powerful aftershocks instantly dissipated all the flames from the explosion.

The hand-to-hand combat between the two resumed once again.

However, this time the situation has changed. With the blessing of the Dragon God's power, Naru, who has unleashed all his power, has had his fighting instincts and skills elevated.

It is fast and fierce in attack, and also has a fairly good defense.

At this moment, Tien Shinhan was completely suppressed and could only passively defend.

However, Nail's relentless attacks put immense pressure on Tien Shinhan. Tien Shinhan knew that if things continued like this, he would surely be defeated. He had to find a way to resolve the current situation, otherwise he would suffer a severe blow from Nail sooner or later.

Tien Shinhan, who was being forced back, raised his right hand, gathered energy in his palm, and slammed it down hard on the ground.

Boom! The energy blast exploded beneath his feet, sending up plumes of thick smoke, forcing Neru back several meters.

Seizing the opportunity, Tien Shinhan unleashed his aura and soared into the sky, bringing his hands together to form a triangle. Powerful energy gathered in his palms, and his ultimate attack was ready to be unleashed.

"Trick Cannon!!!" With Tien Shinhan's shout, he unleashed his incredibly powerful Tri Blast, a bombardment that covered the entire arena, leaving Nail with no way to avoid it.

"Such an intense sense of oppression...!! In that case, I have no choice but to face it head-on!!" Neru gritted his teeth, golden flames ignited in his eyes, he raised his hands high, poured all his strength into his body, quickly condensed energy, and released a full-power energy wave.

Boom! ...

"Crackling sounds!" The energy continued to collide, shooting out astonishing bolts of lightning in the void.

Tien Shinhan and Nail continued to exert their strength, engaging in a pure energy contest. Veins bulged on Tien Shinhan's forehead, and the energy output of his Tri-Beam Cannon kept increasing, transforming from a single energy emission into a continuous energy emission.

This level of ki cannon consumes a tremendous amount of physical strength. Using it too much can even shorten one's lifespan, eventually leading to exhaustion and death.

But it was precisely because of the strength of this move that Tien Shinhan was able to temporarily suppress Nail.

With the continuous bombardment of the Qi Gong Cannon, Neru was unable to withstand it for a while, and the power of the Dragon God was about to be dispersed!

【No! This can't go on any longer!!】 Nail gritted his teeth and looked up to watch Tien Shinhan's attack rhythm.

With his keen insight and combat intuition, he located the brief pause when Tien Shinhan released his Tri-Blast in just a few seconds, a pause that lasted about half a second.

That half-second pause was his chance to turn the tide.

"Tri-Beam Cannon!!!" Tien Shinhan roared and activated the Tri-Beam Cannon again.

With a deafening boom, Neru's full-force energy wave was completely shattered.

Just when Tien Shinhan thought he had victory in his grasp and only needed to finish with one more Tri-Blast, Nail made his move.

He seized that half-second pause, enveloped himself with all his strength, and burst forth at top speed, soaring into the sky like a rocket, heading straight for Tien Shinhan.

"Not good!" Tien Shinhan's expression changed when he noticed Nail's initiative and hurriedly got into a defensive stance, but unfortunately he was still a step too late.

Nail, charging forward at lightning speed, passed through the ki blast and landed in front of Tien Shinhan, his powerful punch striking Tien Shinhan squarely in the abdomen.

A powerful force surged through Tien Shinhan's body, violently assaulting his internal organs.

"Pfft!!" Tien Shinhan, devastated by the attack, spat out a jet of blood, his life force rapidly diminishing.

This punch caused him considerable injury.

Fortunately, years of training had forged his body to an extremely strong level. While Naru's punch was powerful, it wasn't strong enough to defeat him.

Despite the pain, Tien Shinhan swung his right fist straight at Nail's face.

Faced with Tien Shinhan's sudden attack, Naru skillfully dodged as if he had been prepared.

Pressing their advantage, they unleashed a fierce, storm-like offensive, raining down on Tien Shinhan's body.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!..." Nail launched a series of deadly attacks on Tien Shinhan. His punches and kicks were incredibly fierce, and each move contained a special kind of hidden power.

Even if Tien Shinhan successfully defends, this special force will still penetrate deep into Tien Shinhan's body and cause secondary damage.

Tien Shinhan, who could only defend passively, realized something was wrong after successfully blocking dozens of punches and kicks from Nail.
