[So…am I going to lose…?] A deep regret flashed through Raditz's eyes.
He had thought that after a year of preparation, he would be able to personally cut down Frieza and avenge the Saiyan race. But in the end, it was all for nothing.
Just as the Death Beam was about to hit Raditz—
Talot appeared in the nick of time using Instant Transmission, scattering the Death Beam with a casual raise of his hand, saving Raditz from certain death.
"Hohoho~~!! So you've finally decided to step in just because your little follower was about to be killed, huh?" Seeing Talot arrive, Frieza wasn't the least bit surprised. In fact, his demeanor changed and he grew serious.
Neither Raditz nor Vegeta could compare to Talot. Even among Super Saiyans, there were gaps in power. Just looking at how strong Raditz had become, Frieza could easily imagine how terrifying Talot's strength must be.
The warm-up was over. The real battle was about to begin.
"Talot…" Seeing Talot, the weight in Raditz's chest finally eased.
He had lost. From here on out, everything could only be entrusted to Talot.
He had spoken with such certainty before, yet in the end, he still had to rely on him.
"You fought really well already. Leave the rest to me." Talot said, taking out a Senzu Bean from his personal storage space and handing it to Raditz.
Without a shred of hesitation, Raditz swallowed the Senzu Bean.
As soon as it entered his body, his muscles swelled briefly before returning to normal.
A huge amount of life energy coursed through him. In the blink of an eye, not only were all his injuries healed, but his strength had fully recovered.
And because his grievous wounds had been healed, his base power level rose again, leaping from 25 million to nearly 30 million!
[He recovered all his injuries in an instant? What on earth is that little bean? I must obtain it.]Noticing the miraculous effect of the Senzu Bean, Frieza's heart burned with greed.
To restore a half-dead Saiyan monkey to full strength in the blink of an eye. If he could use it, he would truly be invincible in the face of any predicament or threat.
"Whew~! I'm alive again. Be careful, Talot. Frieza is still hiding his strength." With that warning, Raditz pressed two fingers to his forehead and used Instant Transmission to retreat, reappearing at Goku's side.
Seeing his brother return safe and sound, Goku's tension eased. The two exchanged a brief smile before turning back to watch the fight.
…
Up in the sky.
The atmosphere had grown strangely tense.
Talot and Frieza faced each other. The clash of their overwhelming auras distorted the space around them, making their figures appear warped and twisted to onlookers.
The true battle was about to begin.
The Frieza race and the Saiyan race; this would be their final confrontation.
"Talot… he's finally going to fight…" Vegeta held his breath with rapt attention.
This battle meant everything to him.
"Hohohoho~~!! I'm truly curious. Just how powerful is your Super Saiyan?" Frieza asked aloud, voicing the biggest question in his mind.
"Once you experience it firsthand, you'll know." Talot replied with a faint smile.
In an instant, the nearly limitless S-cells within his body surged rhythmically, and a golden aura radiated outward.
Crackle crackle crackle~~~!!!
Blue-white lightning danced across his body as Talot completed his transformation, unleashing the peak of Full Power state of Super Saiyan 2.
From the 100x boost of its early stage to a 200x boost at peak full power—
At this moment, his power level soared straight past ten billion.
A formidable aura took shape around him, yet not a single wisp of aura leaked out.
This showed just how completely Talot had mastered Super Saiyan 2. He could wield it as easily as breathing.
"As expected, your strength is exactly what I anticipated. Good thing I didn't rush out to deal with you." Frieza's serious gaze swept over Talot a few times, and he quickly assessed his strength.
In his Super Saiyan 2 form, Talot's power level was no weaker than Frieza's current final form.
A truly troublesome opponent. But Frieza had come to Earth with more than one card up his sleeve.
"Oh? So that means you've already prepared a strategy to deal with me, haven't you?" Talot's face remained calm, showing no trace of emotion.
"Heh… don't flatter yourself. Even if you are the first Super Saiyan, I've no need to bother making elaborate plans. Because… I'm far stronger than you think!!"
With a single thought, Frieza unleashed every ounce of dormant energy within his body. His final form erupted with full power, a violent storm tearing across the far north.
In the face of Frieza's deliberate show of might, Talot gave a contemptuous smile. The invisible aura he released effortlessly neutralized the aura released by Frieza.
The two were locked in a standoff once more.
The clash of their auras tugged at every heart watching, making everyone tense up.
Finally, Frieza could no longer restrain himself and attacked first, charging toward Talot.
He was much faster than before, but Talot could see every move of his clearly.
Right hand surging with power, fingers clenched tight, he swung his arm in a mighty punch!
Frieza answered with his own strongest attack.
BOOM!!!!!!!
Their fists, brimming with world-shattering might, were fiercer than thunder, the power of collision capable of obliterating everything, even a planet itself.
The destructive shockwave of their clashing fists sent waves through space, like ripples on a pond.
The shockwaves hurled both Frieza and Talot back dozens of meters.
"Not bad strength. But you're still just a little short." Talot's combative genes were stimulated. Steadying himself, he rushed forward, closing the distance to Frieza. His fist, wrapped in golden aura, struck with full force.
Talot's fighting style was indeed domineering and fierce, but Frieza was no longer the same as before.
Since finishing his training, he hadn't merely raised his power level. Through hellish training he'd forged an entirely new combat style, slipping past Talot's blows from bizarre angles while striking back with overwhelming force.
This fight had risen to an entirely new level.
Frieza's earlier battle with Raditz now seemed like child's play.
A fierce battle erupted!!
