Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

"Super Saiyan 3 stacked with Super Kaioken, so this is your last resort." Talot was shocked by Raditz's willpower.

After all, the stamina consumption of Super Saiyan 3 is already terrifying. Now, with the addition of Super Kaioken, such a huge consumption would probably exhaust most people's stamina in just ten seconds, let alone fight.

"Don't underestimate me, I've been preparing for this day for far too long!" Raditz shouted, his Super Triple Super Kaioken form stabilizing.

At this moment, Raditz was enveloped in a blood-gold aura, his entire body stained blood-red, making it seem like a brand new Super Saiyan transformation to anyone who didn't know better.

In reality, it was just that the blood energy generated by the Super Kaioken changed the color of the Super Saiyan 3rd stage; the transformation itself did not change anything.

"Then come on, let me see where your limits are!" Talot was moved by Raditz's determination.

Since Raditz is so determined, he will fight alongside him to the very end.

Golden energy rose from Talot's feet, unleashing the full power of Super Saiyan 1 at full strength.

"Crackling and popping!!"

The two auras collided in the space, shooting out an astonishing amount of lightning.

At this moment, the world was shaken.

Even the starry sky beyond Earth was affected by the powerful forces of the two.

"Haaah!!" Raditz shouted, his hands moving rapidly, unleashing a barrage of energy blasts towards Talot.

This overwhelming bombardment left Talot with nowhere to hide, forcing him to take the hit head-on.

The next second, Talot mobilized the energy within his body, spread his arms, and formed a protective barrier in front of him to withstand the bombardment of energy blasts.

Boom! A massive amount of destructive energy projectiles simultaneously struck the protective barrier, unleashing a terrifying super explosion. The blinding flames spread outwards, mercilessly engulfing Talot and most of the arena.

It may seem to have immense destructive power and endless killing intent, but this is just an appetizer.

In the blink of an eye, Raditz once again made a powerful comeback.

Amidst the flames of the explosion, seventy percent of the protective barrier formed by Talot's concentrated energy was destroyed.

Suddenly, a hurricane swept up in front of Talot, scattering all the flames.

Upon closer inspection, Raditz had already charged in front of Talot and unleashed a devastating punch imbued with all his power.

A loud bang!

Talot's invisible barrier shattered instantly. Just as the punch was about to hit Talot, he raised his hand to block, skillfully neutralizing the remaining force of the blow.

Feeling the impact of the force on his palm, Talot smiled excitedly, his fighting spirit completely ignited by Raditz.

"It's not over yet!" Raditz shouted again, forcefully pulling back his fist and launching another attack, an unstoppable offensive sweeping over Talot.

The almost frenzied attack left no room for retreat, forcing Talott to defend passively, leaving numerous fist marks on his body.

After launching dozens of powerful attacks in succession, Raditz gathered his strength in his right leg and kicked out with all his might.

A loud "Bang!"

Talot's body flew backward more than twenty meters.

Raditz, going all out, displayed extraordinary fighting abilities, and it seemed he was determined to crush Talot in one fell swoop.

But is that possible? Obviously not.

The combination of Super Saiyan 3 and Super Kaioken can indeed push fighting power to its limit, but doing so puts a tremendous strain on the body. Despite Raditz's amazing willpower, he couldn't sustain this level of attack for long.

The moment his momentum suddenly diminishes will be the moment Talot strikes!

Raditz knew his time was running out, which was the main reason he kept attacking.

He absolutely cannot stop, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. He must win, at least to force Talot to transform into Super Saiyan 2 or Super Saiyan 3!

The next second, Talot seized the opening exposed by Raditz's attack and decisively struck.

"Bang!!" A powerful blow struck Raditz squarely in the chest.

Raditz, struck hard, frowned as he was swept backward by the force of the blow, only stopping at the edge of the ring.

"After fighting for so long, it's my turn." Talot smiled slightly, his aura rising steadily, and an immense pressure pressed down on Raditz.

Sensing the intensity of this aura, Raditz's expression grew even more solemn, and he was ready to go all out.

A whooshing sound rang out.

Talot burst forth with extreme speed, rushing in front of Raditz in less than 0.001 seconds and throwing a heavy punch.

Raditz instinctively raised his hand to defend, but Talot anticipated it and changed the trajectory of his fist, turning it into an uppercut that struck Raditz squarely in the jaw.

A loud "Bang!"

Raditz, struck by the powerful blow, felt dizzy and his body went out of control, shooting straight into the sky.

At the moment of his defensive lapse, Talot attacked again. This time he showed no mercy, and an attack more violent than a hurricane swept over Raditz's body, with muffled thunderous explosions echoing through the air.

The intense and ferocious attack instantly brought Raditz back to his senses. The excruciating pain made his blood and qi churn, and his bones felt as if they were about to shatter.

Fortunately, his years of training had made his body incredibly strong, and with the added power of Super Saiyan 3 and Super Kaioken, he was able to withstand Tarot's high-intensity attacks.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, they would probably have been smashed to pieces and left half-dead.

Once Raditz regained his senses, he crossed his arms to protect his vitals and withstood Talot's attack.

However, Talot's attacks were impossible to defend against. Even if he protected his vital points, he still had many openings in his body.

Talot moved through space with ghostly ease, each attack leaving Raditz defenseless and putting immense pressure on him.

Seeing that his fist attack had no effect, Talot clasped his hands together and unleashed a powerful Super Ki Cannon.

A loud "BOOM!"

Raditz felt an irresistible force sweep over his entire body, causing him to lose control of his body. When he finally regained his balance, he had been sent thousands of meters into the air.

Raditz, having regained his footing, was panting heavily, a trace of blood on his lips and his entire body steaming with hot white smoke. His strong physique was covered with dense fist marks, and the intense pain constantly stimulated his nerves, keeping him alert at all times.

"Ptooey!!!" Raditz spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, raised his hand to wipe the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

The pain that cannot defeat him only makes him stronger.

Talot was as formidable as ever; even Super Saiyan 1 at full power was enough to overwhelm him.

*Sizzle!*

A crimson bolt of lightning suddenly exploded on Raditz's left arm.

At that moment, a muscle in his left arm was torn apart by the force of the breath, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

"Is he almost at his breaking point? It seems we can't drag this out any longer; we have to decide the outcome in one fell swoop." Raditz's gaze suddenly hardened, his eyes fixed intently on Talot, as if telling him what he was about to do.

The two had such a deep understanding that they could communicate without words; Raditz only needed to give a look, and Talott immediately understood.

"Come on." Talot perked up, golden energy surging around him, ready to welcome them.

"Haaaaaah!!" Raditz roared, his forehead veins bulging, and his muscles swelled up, making him look incredibly ferocious and terrifying.

At this moment, he went all out, not for victory or defeat, but for himself. He wanted to see if he could push his limits!

"Crackling and popping!!!"

Around Raditz, streaks of blue and white electricity crackled, giving him an aura of menace and ferocity.

"Come on!! If you're so capable, try to deflect my full-force attack!! Tarot!!" Raditz roared, assuming a fighting stance for his ultimate move, gathering all his energy in his palm, and making a desperate gamble.

This move is a matter of life or death.

As energy continued to condense and compress, a violent aura emanated from Raditz, shaking the surrounding area. A massive tsunami erupted around Papaya Island, and the entire island trembled continuously due to this ever-increasing energy. If it weren't for the presence of angels, Papaya Island would likely have already sunk into the sea.

This situation left all the spectators and soldiers dumbfounded.

The energy attack released from that angle could easily turn the entire Earth into dust in the universe if not handled carefully. Moreover, the energy that Raditz gathers could destroy ten Earths without any problem. Is there really no problem in doing this?

Everyone held their breath and watched this scene in silence.

Only Talot remained calm.

He sensed Raditz's determination and knew why Raditz was working so hard.

The two are both rivals and friends. Since Raditz is so persistent, then let him show off.

Talot decisively deactivated his Super Saiyan 1st Stage Full Power transformation, mobilizing the divine power energy pool within his body, ready to unleash its power.

This scene left the soldiers in the rest area dumbfounded.

They were puzzled by Tarot's decision to voluntarily deactivate his Super Saiyan transformation.

Is Talott going to take Raditz's attack head-on with his usual style?

Or is there... another method that can only be used when not transforming into a Super Saiyan?

Everyone has different thoughts.

At this moment, even breathing became heavy. They stared intently at the battlefield, not daring to blink, for fear of missing something.

……

Above the martial arts arena.

Raditz was enveloped in endless lightning, and his super finishing move had taken shape.

Although he was puzzled by Talot's decision to undo his transformation, he did not question him.

On the contrary, he became expectant, wondering how Talot would neutralize his all-out super move.

"Take this! Super Shining Destruction Cannon!" Raditz shouted, swinging his arms.

In an instant, a blood-gold lightning energy cannon with a diameter of tens of meters shot out from his palm, like a blood-red dragon baring its fangs and claws, and blasted towards Talot.

At that very moment, Talot's form changed.

In an instant, divine power, as substantial as flames, was released from within.

Talot's hair and pupils were dyed deep red, and his body was surrounded by deep divine flames.

This form is none other than Super Saiyan God!

At that moment, his strength instantly surged to trillions of units.

With a raised hand, a punch was thrown!

A deafening boom ensued! A scene that left everyone in disbelief unfolded.

Raditz's ultimate finishing move, the Super Shining Destruction Cannon, was shattered by a single punch, turning into countless energy particles that drifted through the void.

The powerful punch pierced through Raditz's body, striking the invisible barrier and creating huge ripples.

The power of that single punch shook the entire region!

*Pfft!*

Raditz, swept by the force of the punch, spat out a spurt of blood, his aura weakened drastically, and his Super Saiyan 3 and Super Kaioken states dissipated simultaneously.

[As expected, this is the ending... But I've gotten what I wanted... Although it's not Super Saiyan 3... But...] Raditz sighed inwardly, and then boundless darkness swept in, engulfing his consciousness.

His body went out of control, and he fell to the ground like a meteorite.

Just as Raditz was about to fall to the ground, Talot moved and caught the unconscious Raditz.

After catching Raditz, Talot checked his physical condition.

All the bones in his body were shattered. The immense strain of Super Saiyan 3 combined with the Super Kaioken had caused him great trauma.

Especially that desperate attack just now almost cost him his life.

"You bastard, you're really courting death." Talot released a healing beam, the emerald green light merging into Raditz's body.

These healing particles are repairing Raditz's damaged internal organs, gradually pulling him back from the brink of death.

Raditz didn't regain consciousness until he returned to the ring.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!!" Raditz screamed in pain repeatedly.

After calming myself down, I tried to get up, but the intense pain caused me to suddenly exhale a lot of cold air.

He then disregarded everything else, took out a Senzu Bean and ate it, which healed his injuries and restored his strength.

After recovering, his strength was greatly enhanced due to the healing of his serious injuries.

After realizing what was happening, Raditz looked at Talot with a resentful expression: "What form is this now?"

"Super Saiyan God," Tarot chuckled.

"Super Saiyan God, so that's it. You're the one from the myth that I mentioned before. You've even reached that level... I'm really... impressed..." Raditz said helplessly, his lips twitching.

The gap between them seems to have widened even further.

The two continued to communicate, and everyone was watching the situation, especially the blond referee, who was now unsure how to deliver his verdict.

"Um, Mr. Raditz, you seem to have used an item outside the rules just now. I don't know what it is, but..." Raditz glanced at him as the blond referee spoke.

"I've lost. You can declare the verdict now."
