Chapter 85 Sun Wukong's Defeat
Krillin and Gohan carried Shangyun as they flew towards Master Roshi's Island. Shangyun was awakened by the biting cold wind and asked Krillin what was going on. Krillin told Shangyun that Goku had decided to fight Vegeta alone and that they should go back to Master Roshi's Island first.
"No! Vegeta is too powerful. Even Goku might not be his match. If we go over there, we might be able to help him," Shang Yun suggested. Krillin and Gohan were also very worried about Goku's safety, so the three of them agreed immediately. Since Shang Yun was still very weak, Krillin and Gohan helped him fly.
Goku knew Vegeta's strength all too well; it was like an insurmountable mountain. With a determined heart, he resolved to unleash the Kaioken technique.
"Double Kaio Fist!"
In an instant, Sun Wukong's body shone brightly, as dazzling as the sun. His muscles were taut, each one seemingly containing the power of a volcanic eruption, as if he could turn everything around him to ashes at any moment. His aura surged several times over, and he once again pounced on Vegeta like a tiger.
In an instant, the wind howled with punches, figures crisscrossed, and the valley echoed with the deafening roar of violent collisions, like the roar of an ancient war god. Each collision seemed to shake the valley to its core, and rocks rolled down the cliffs, raising a cloud of dust.
However, even with Goku using the double Kaioken technique, he still couldn't suppress Vegeta. Instead, Vegeta seized an opening, lunging forward with ghostly agility and kicking Goku in the abdomen. Goku flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a boulder. The boulder instantly turned to dust under the immense impact, with fragments flying everywhere like deadly projectiles.
Sun Wukong struggled to his feet, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. The blood left a glaring mark on his cheek, but his eyes remained resolute, burning with an indomitable flame that seemed to dispel all darkness. Sun Wukong steeled his heart, deciding to risk his life.
"Triple Kaioken!"
Goku unleashed an even more powerful Kaioken. With a roar that seemed to tear the heavens apart, his body shone with dazzling light, his power and speed surging once more as he launched an even fiercer attack on Vegeta. Each punch carried his determination and courage, as if determined to utterly defeat Vegeta. Vegeta was overwhelmed and unable to defend himself, caught off guard by Goku's relentless barrage of attacks. Finally, a punch struck him in the chin, sending him crashing to the ground, raising a cloud of dust that slowly settled like a defeated flag.
Vegeta got up from the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood that splattered on the ground in a dark red flower shape. His eyes were full of resentment: "Kakarot, I didn't expect that a lowly warrior like you could actually injure me. However, you idiot, the worst thing you could do was cut off your tail! You don't understand the true power of a Saiyan at all! You will never be able to experience that feeling of peak power."
Sun Wukong looked puzzled, his brows furrowed, as if pondering a profound riddle: "What would happen if the tail were cut off? Why is that so important?"
Vegeta sneered, "The Saiyans transform into Great Apes on the night of the full moon; that's their strongest form. Cutting off your tail is like cutting off your own wings; you'll never reach the peak power of a Saiyan! It's a power and ferocity you can't even imagine." With that, Vegeta looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with anticipation, trying to find the full moon. However, there was only the blinding sun in the sky, its rays seemingly mocking his expectations.
Vegeta was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening: "Hmph, it seems the Earthlings already knew the Saiyans' secret and destroyed the full moon ahead of time. But that doesn't matter, Saiyans can create their own miniature full moons." He slowly gathered energy in his hands, forming an energy vortex in his palms. The vortex seemed like a passage to a mysterious world. A moment later, a small moon slowly rose into the sky, emitting an eerie glow that made the valley even more sinister and terrifying.
Vegeta stared intently at the artificial moon, his body undergoing a dramatic transformation, instantly becoming a giant ape as majestic as a mountain. His body seemed capable of filling the entire valley. Surprisingly, he did not lose his mind after transforming; instead, his eyes flashed with an even more ferocious light, as if he wanted to turn everything in front of him to ashes. That light was like will-o'-the-wisps from hell, sending chills down one's spine.
"Ha!" Vegeta opened his giant mouth, which contained a huge ball of energy, and roared as he launched an energy wave at Goku.
"Kamehameha!" Goku quickly unleashed a Kamehameha to meet Vegeta's energy wave.
However, Goku soon found himself in dire straits. Vegeta transformed into a Great Ape, and his power increased exponentially, gradually pushing energy waves toward Goku.
"Quadruple Kaio Fist!"
Goku roared, quadrupling the power of his Kaioken technique, and unleashed an energy wave at Vegeta. Vegeta was startled and struck by the combined energy. However, Vegeta only suffered a slight disturbance in his breathing and was not seriously injured. But after using the four-times-powered Kaioken, Goku was exhausted and could only barely stand, unable to maintain the Kaioken's power any longer.
Vegeta straightened up, and with a wave of his hand, he grabbed Goku like a cage that covered the sky and the sun. He slowly tightened his grip, and Goku felt as if all the bones in his body were about to be crushed. He was in excruciating pain, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. His face was as pale as paper, but his eyes still showed an indomitable spirit, which seemed to be his last line of defense.
However, Sun Wukong was not one to give up easily. He endured the excruciating pain, concentrated all his energy, and as Vegeta slammed him to the ground and looked down to mock him, he mustered all his strength to clasp his hands together above his head. Energy gathered in his palms, and he instantly emitted a powerful energy wave, like a dazzling laser, which accurately struck Vegeta's right eye.
Vegeta let out a painful roar, covering his eyes with his hands. His voice was like that of a wounded beast howling. He angrily grabbed Goku again and roared, "I'm going to crush you into powder! You'll pay a terrible price for your offense today! You'll regret your ignorance and arrogance!"
At this moment, Shang Yun, Krillin, and Son Gohan arrived. The three landed on a hilltop not far away, and Shang Yun quickly sat down cross-legged to recover his inner energy.
When they arrived, they witnessed Goku being cruelly tortured by Vegeta. Their hearts were immediately filled with resentment and anger, an anger that seemed to set their chests ablaze, like a raging fire burning in their hearts.
Krillin knew that Vegeta's weakness was his tail, so he quietly circled around to the hill behind Vegeta and unleashed his Destructo Slash without hesitation.
