Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

At this moment, Talot's purification of Bardock was nearing its end.

As the divine light rapidly receded, Talot and Bardock's figures were revealed.

"Huff...huff...huff..." Talot gasped for breath, rapidly adjusting his breathing rhythm.

Although he is still in the state of Super Saiyan Blue, the strength of his divine power is now less than half of what it was at its peak.

Without time to think, Talot's sharp gaze fixed on the masked Bardock before him.

At this moment, Bardock's body had been completely expelled from evil power thanks to the purification of divine power.

He slowly turned around, and his bloodshot eyes had returned to normal.

"Crack... Bang!!" The next second, the dark mask on Bardock's face shattered, revealing his true face.

His eyes, now back to normal, signify that his self-awareness has returned.

"Welcome back... Uncle Bardock..." Talot smiled, genuinely happy for Bardock's return.

"This feels like a very, very long dream. If it weren't for you, I probably would never have woken up again." Bardock's face showed a relieved smile.

Back when Talot telepathically communicated with him, he was already searching for a way to return to his original world. But who could have imagined that he would be targeted by these bastards from the Dark Realm while searching for Namek?

Not only was his body altered, but his self-awareness almost completely disappeared.

The uncle and nephew recognized each other without any beating around the bush, especially since this was the Dark Demon Realm, and now was not the time for sentimentality.

"Crackling and popping!!"

Suddenly, an incredibly destructive bolt of lightning exploded in the sky above the Dark Demon Realm.

In an instant, the entire dark demon realm was thrown into turmoil.

A sinister and terrifying aura suddenly erupted, and this extremely fierce evil aura immediately caught the attention of Bardock and Tarot, who forcibly interrupted the battle between Vegeta and Mira in the future.

In that destructive lightning, the demon god Shurum of the Dark Realm descended!

"Tch! These scum from the Dark Realm!!" Bardock's anger surged the moment he saw Shurum, wishing he could tear all the people of the Dark Realm to pieces.

He had to avenge being captured and brought here for reformation!

"Aaaaaahh ...

With a burst of golden lightning, he directly entered the third stage of Super Saiyan from his normal state.

Furthermore, because Talot infused him with divine power, his Super Saiyan 3rd Form exudes an extremely powerful divine force.

It is both Super Saiyan 3rd Stage and not just any Super Saiyan 3rd Stage.

This form can be called Super Saiyan Stage 3: God Power Enhancement State!

"Die!!!" Bardock, whose aura had reached its peak, raised his hand and unleashed a blue energy cannon with overwhelming destructive power, heading straight for the Demon God Shurum.

"Overestimating yourself, you're nothing but a puppet of my Dark Demon Realm. Do you think you can change your fate just by regaining your self-awareness? How naive!!" The Demon God Shurum scoffed at this, raising his hand to summon his Death Scythe.

With a raised hand, a deadly scythe-like strike shot out.

A whooshing sound rang out.

Bardock's all-out finishing move was instantly cut in two by the Death Scythe slash released by Shurum as he raised his hand, and the remaining energy slashes rushed straight towards Bardock.

"What?!" Bardock was horrified when he saw this. He turned around quickly and narrowly avoided the powerful slash.

Boom!

Shurum's casual strike left a huge trench in the ground that stretched for tens of thousands of meters.

"Damn it... these demons are even stronger than I thought!!" Bardock looked embarrassed.

Although Towa's modifications, the evil power of the Dark Mask, and Talot's divine power had pushed his strength to its limits, he was still far inferior to the demons in the Dark Realm.

"The situation is not good..." Talot looked at the demon god Shurum, who was holding the scythe of death in the sky, and his eyes became extremely solemn.

His intuition told him that the power of this Grim Reaper, Shurum, had surpassed the eighth dimension and reached the ninth dimension.

If he were in his prime, using Super Saiyan Blue Ultimate Great Ape Legendary Super power or his own Ultra Instinct state, he might be able to fight him.

But now, after purifying Bardock of his evil power, he is no longer able to unleash his full combat potential.

Moreover, this is the Dark Realm, where his power is partially suppressed. Even if he goes all out, he might not be able to defeat Shurum.

"That performance was really great! It's making me a little itchy to join in. Now, let me play with you guys," Shurum said with a forced smile.

……

At this moment, on the battlefield between Vegeta and Mira in the future.

The battle was completely one-sided, with Vegeta having utterly defeated Mira, leaving her covered in wounds.

"Get out of my way!! You eyesore of trash!!" Future Vegeta roared, unleashing an unstoppable punch.

A series of terrifying sounds, like "Bang!", rang out.

Future Vegeta's powerful punch landed squarely on Mira's stomach, the terrifying penetrating force instantly sending Mira flying back hundreds of meters.

Her internal organs were stirred up by the force, and Mira's blood and qi surged within her body, causing her to suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.

It wasn't over yet. Future Vegeta attacked again, bringing his hands together in a stance to unleash energy, accompanied by a flash of white and purple light.

"Super Galik Cannon!!" Future Vegeta unleashed his ultimate attack.

A violent burst of energy blasted through the air, striking Mira squarely in the body.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

"Die!! Mira!!" Future Vegeta roared, unleashing his maximum energy.

At this moment, the energy beam released by Vegeta in the future expands explosively.

With a deafening roar, the Super Galik Cannon exploded.

Thick flames shot into the sky, the aftershocks spreading outwards. Mira was completely engulfed by the explosion, her fate unknown.

This creature has an extremely strong vitality; as long as one cell remains, it can be continuously revived.

The situation is tense now, and Vegeta won't have time to check if Mira is still alive.

Just as he was about to act, his gaze shifted and landed on King Vegeta, who was looking at him from the ground in the distance.

At this moment, the masked King Vegeta did not attack him.

"Hmph~!!" Future Vegeta merely snorted coldly, ignoring his father who had fallen into darkness, and quickly flew towards the area where Tarot and Bardock were.

He had no intention of rescuing King Vegeta; it was King Vegeta's own choice. He still retained his self-awareness and was not being forcibly controlled.

Since he has chosen the path of the Dark Realm, let him continue on it.

However, when we meet again in the future, it won't be as simple as it was this time.

At this moment, the masked King Vegeta watched Vegeta leave and fell into deep thought, lost in thought.

"My son... I am very gratified that you have upheld the honor of the Saiyans, but I... cannot turn back... This is the only time I can help you." Masked Vegeta's heart was in turmoil. At this moment, he seemed to have made up his mind.

……

on another battlefield.

In the future, Vegeta quickly arrives and joins forces with Tarot and Bardock to confront the demon god Shurum.

He was no stranger to Shurum; he had met Shurum when he was on a mission in another time and space.

The opponent's strength is too great to be defeated by fighting alone.

Back then, he had to fuse with Kakarot to win, barely defeating his opponent and expelling him from that time-space world.

Now that we are in the Dark Realm, it is almost impossible to defeat it in a direct confrontation.

"Now that he's awake, let's go. There's no need to get entangled with this guy." Future Vegeta didn't dawdle and directly took out the Time Scroll that Chronoa, the Supreme Kai of Time, had given him.

As the Scroll of Time opened, the powerful spacetime forces within formed a spacetime tunnel behind them.

At the end of this time tunnel lies the Nest of Time.

Once they reach the Nest of Time, they will be safe. That is their home turf, and the people of the Dark Realm dare not pursue them there.

"Let's go, Uncle Bardock," Talot said, nodding.

"Hmm." Bardock knew that the difference in strength between himself and his enemy was huge, so he did not linger in the fight and turned to head towards the time tunnel.

Just as the three were about to act, the demon god Shurum moved.

"This is the Dark Realm, not a place where you can come and go as you please! Stay here, all of you!" Shurum smiled cruelly, swinging the Scythe of Death in his hand.

An unparalleled aura of malevolence surged towards the future Vegeta, Tarot, and Bardock.

"Oh no!! This guy is going to fight to the death!!" Future Vegeta sensed something was wrong and was about to move to defend himself when he discovered that someone had beaten him to it and blocked the devastating blow.

This person is none other than King Vegeta!

"Huh?!" Vegeta was incredulous at the masked King Vegeta before him.

Has his own father had a change of heart?

"Tova, the masked warriors you've modified are all more disobedient than the last. Now look what's happened, they even dare to block my attacks, hmph!!" Shurum showed a disdainful look. He really didn't take a mere masked Vegeta King seriously.

She's not even as good as Mira, how could she possibly catch his eye!

"Damn it!! What are you trying to do?!" Towa felt like he was being slapped in the face repeatedly. First, Bardock's self-awareness was awakened, and now King Vegeta had taken the initiative to betray him. Where could he put his face?!

The future Vegeta was even more astonished at this moment.

He never expected that his father, who had fallen into darkness, would help him.

"Why?" Future Vegeta frowned and asked, puzzled.

"Does a father need a reason to help his son? I should thank you, Vegeta. If you hadn't woken me up, I might still be blinded by power. Go now, I'll stay behind to cover your retreat." Masked King Vegeta suddenly realized his mistake.

At this moment, having become a slave to power, he finally showed a hint of being a king in Vegeta's eyes in the future.

"Hmph! I won't thank you... Don't die so easily." Future Vegeta left these words behind and disappeared into the time tunnel without looking back.

As he entered, the time tunnel closed at that moment.

On the contrary, King Vegeta, the masked figure, was now completely isolated and helpless.

"You used the power of our Dark Realm, yet you turned around and helped the people of the Nest of Time. You traitor! Towa, I destroyed this ant. You won't blame me, will you?" Shurum said to Towa with a smile that concealed a knife.

"Hmph! Do as you please, it's just a failed experiment." Towa no longer cared about the life or death of Masked King Vegeta.

She bestowed great power upon this old man, but he suddenly betrayed her. Despite being deeply entrenched in the power of the Dark Demon Realm, he still rebelled.

Where can she put her face?

Let this kind of person die; she doesn't need another warrior like him.

At worst, we can find more suitable subordinates later.

"That's good, hehehe..." Shurum's eyes flashed with a bloody light upon seeing this.

In an instant, endless evil power spread, forming the shape of an evil Grim Reaper behind him.

This terrifying form of death exudes a destructive power capable of overturning everything, enough to plunge everything into a bottomless abyss of darkness.

Sensing the terrifying power of this demonic god, King Vegeta clenched his teeth.

There's no turning back now; he knew that this time, his mission was truly over.

"Vegeta, you have restored my royal glory. I should have disappeared into the annals of history long ago. To witness you bring glory to the Saiyans is enough to make my time on the battlefield worthwhile. This time, I will not let you down." King Vegeta thought to himself.

Then, he roared hysterically, desperately unleashing the power of the Dark Mask to enhance himself.

In an instant, a violent, dark, evil aura surged into the sky, and the masked King Vegeta's aura and fighting power also continued to rise, becoming increasingly intense and powerful.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he unleashed his power, he could only reach the late stage of the eighth dimension at most, and could not reach the ninth dimension.

What may seem like a small dimensional difference is an insurmountable chasm for Masked King Vegeta.

"It's just a death throes. I warned you, yet you still unleash the power of the Dark Realm before the Demon God. You're truly foolish." Shurum sighed, and the evil shadow of the Grim Reaper behind him wielded a massive death scythe, transforming it into a destructive slash that hurtled towards Masked King Vegeta. (End of Chapter)
