"Oh, I look forward to it."
Beryl didn't know how to comment on Vegeta, who was puffed up like a steamed bun.
"Hmph!"
Vegeta snorted coldly and vanished from his spot.
A heavy fist came from behind, aimed directly at Beryl's head without hesitation.
"Sigh~"
Taking a step forward, Beryl shifted her body, using her right foot as the pivot.
With a step, she passed in front of Vegeta.
Beryl reached out to grab Vegeta's wrist, but Vegeta's entire body glowed red, and he instantly dodged away.
He reappeared behind Beryl at an extremely fast speed.
"Oh? What was that just now…?"
Beryl was a little surprised, but the astonishment in her eyes quickly faded.
"Kaio-ken, huh."
Given Vegeta's arrogant personality, would he think of learning this technique?
Still, it's a wonder Goku managed to teach him.
Beryl's hand stopped mid-air, then she took a step back.
She used the momentum to grab the fist coming from behind, then flung it away.
Vegeta was thrown flying.
The aura around Vegeta was still in a red and white state, clearly a characteristic of Kaio-ken.
"About 8 times."
A combat power of 6 million; no wonder Vegeta was as puffed up as a pufferfish, not even putting Frieza in his eyes.
He wouldn't think his current strength could reach over a hundred million, would he?
"Forget it, knowing Vegeta's current combat power and trump cards, there's no point in continuing the fight."
Beryl lifted her foot and gently stomped on the ground.
Boom!
Accompanied by a loud bang.
The camera in the arena broadcast zoomed out.
The planet, in a brilliant blaze of fireworks, turned into dazzling dust.
[The arena match has ended. Vegeta is dead. World's No. 1 Princess has won the match.]
In the Chat Group.
Many group members were intently watching the arena match.
In a certain demon territory.
Shiraori, leaning back in her chair and watching the live broadcast with Demon Lord Ariel, was munching on biscuits, with a large plate of popcorn on the table.
Watching the exploding "fireworks" in the live stream, Shiraori's expression instantly froze.
The match is over? How long has it been?!
Group Leader, is it really okay to be this fast?
She couldn't help but send a message to the public chat.
[Kumoko: "…It's over? Isn't that a bit short? I thought the Group Leader would play with Vegeta a bit longer."]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "His strength is too weak. Not crushing an ant is also a troublesome thing, and besides, I really don't think there's much difference from when he had 18,000 combat power."]
[Kumoko: "…"]
[Vegeta: "…"]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "Are you very unconvinced, Vegeta? When you fight Frieza, you wouldn't think Frieza wouldn't blow up planets, would you?"]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "With Frieza's vitality, he might survive a planetary explosion, and he can survive in space, so if you go to Namek, you'd best keep that in mind."]
[Vegeta: "You… you're a sophist."]
Am I fighting Frieza when I'm fighting you? Destroying planets at the drop of a hat.
My 8x Kaio-ken hadn't even started exerting its full power! And it was already over.
In the Lookout, Vegeta sat down in a corner, arms crossed, his face showing no expression.
"Hey Vegeta, are we still going in?" Goku walked over and patted Vegeta's shoulder.
"No, I feel a bottleneck."
"So it's not just you; I pretty much feel the same way." Goku sighed, "By the way, do you know what our current combat power is?"
Swatting Goku's hand off his shoulder, Vegeta glanced at him:
"How would I know? I haven't seen Frieza transform. I can only say that even without using Kaio-ken, we can still press him down and beat him before he transforms."
"I'm telling you, Kakarot, after you meet Frieza, absolutely do not let him transform, understand?"
"Uh… it feels a bit underhanded, Vegeta."
"Underhanded? That's survival; we don't even know if we can survive." Vegeta thought for a moment and said, "As for that Kaio-ken, if there are no restrictions on your end, let the others learn it too. It's good for them to improve their strength."
"It wasn't said that it couldn't be taught to outsiders, but I don't know if Krillin and the others can learn it." Goku pondered for a while, then agreed with Vegeta's idea.
With Kaio-ken, everyone's strength will further improve after coming out of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
No sooner said than done, Goku walked towards the others and began teaching them Kaio-ken.
Vegeta merely glanced at the departing Goku, then turned his gaze to the entrance of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
"I wonder how much Nappa and that Namekian will improve their strength when they come out."
Vegeta's thoughts returned to the Chat Group.
To be honest, he was also very curious about his current strength.
And coincidentally, Uchiha Madara asked this very question.
Vegeta couldn't help but pay attention.
[Uchiha Madara: "@World's No. 1 Princess, Group Leader, how much combat power does Vegeta have? Is it convenient to tell us?"]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "If Vegeta doesn't object, I can tell you. @Vegeta, what do you say?"]
[Vegeta: "I have no objection; I also really want to know my own strength."]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "Before answering your question, tell me one thing first: How did you learn Kaio-ken? Did both King Kai and Goku agree?"]
[Vegeta: "I traded the Super Saiyan transformation method with Kakarot, and as for Kaio-ken, it wasn't with King Kai's permission. However, Kakarot said it's fine; that King Kai probably wouldn't care about such things."]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "I see, so you just got something for nothing."]
[Vegeta: "…The Super Saiyan transformation method, how is that getting something for nothing?"]
As he spoke, even Vegeta blushed a little.
Isn't it just getting something for nothing?
What Super Saiyan? They still can't transform, even knowing the method seems useless!
[World's No. 1 Princess: "Yes, yes, you're right."]
[Vegeta: "This isn't important. @World's No. 1 Princess, what is my combat power value exactly? You should know, right?"]
[World's No. 1 Princess: "I know, but it's very different from what you expected."]
Everyone's attention was focused on the Chat Group's public screen, waiting for the Group Leader to reveal the answer.
[World's No. 1 Princess: "Vegeta's combat power is… 750,000, and with 8x Kaio-ken, his combat power is 6 million."]
Many group members gasped.
Leaving aside the 6 million figure, even 750,000 was an astronomical number for the group members.
However, one person couldn't be happy, and that was Vegeta.
[Vegeta: "That low?"]
He had thought he'd have at least tens of millions of combat power, or at least several million.
Not being able to transform into a Super Saiyan was due to not having enough S-cells or not fully mastering the transformation method.
But now, you're telling me…
I haven't even reached the minimum combat power for transforming into a Super Saiyan?
