Chapter 168 - Battle Against Broly! The True Saiyan! (Part 1)

Broly had snapped.

A terrifying aura erupted from his body, so intense that even Raditz was momentarily startled.

Before he could react, Broly soared into the sky in a rage, fist clenched, and threw a vicious punch at Raditz.

Clearly, Broly now saw Raditz as his enemy, after all, his father's death was a result of Raditz's actions.

"So fast!" Raditz muttered as he sharply raised his right arm, blocking Broly's savage punch.

BOOM!!!

The ground shook violently, and the air cracked. It was terrifying.

Fortunately, Raditz's base form had reached an incredibly high level, otherwise, he doubted he could have withstood that blow.

Broly's power was overwhelming. As a fellow Saiyan, being able to fight like this ignited Raditz's fighting spirit.

"Impressive! Born with a power level of 10,000… but starting power isn't everything!" A flash of fierceness appeared in Raditz's eyes. With his other fist, he struck back hard.

BOOM!!!

The explosive impact echoed through the sky.

Raditz's punch sent Broly flying.

Measured in 5th-dimensional terms, Raditz's teratrillion-level punch would've pierced Majin Buu straight through.

But Broly withstood it.

Despite appearances, Broly's body was absurdly durable, absorbing Raditz's blow and skidding backward over a kilometer.

His face grew even more savage and monstrous.

Roaring in rage, Broly unleashed his fury, venting the resentment and pain in his heart.

"Hmph? Still standing after one of my punches? Looks like I underestimated you," Raditz remarked, clearly impressed.

By now, everyone was fully focused on the battlefield.

Especially surprised were those who saw Broly withstand Raditz's full-force attack.

The Supreme Kai and Kibito may not have known how significant this was, but Goku did. He knew his brother's power, and the force behind that punch.

Even Krillin, Tien, and Gohan could feel how powerful Raditz was.

"Incredible! This guy's aura already surpasses mine and Tien's. Is he another Super Saiyan?" Krillin exclaimed.

Broly's power had now soared to several hundred billion, even brushing against the trillion range.

"A Saiyan this strong, comparable to you and Raditz? Unbelievable," Tien added, shaken.

The impact on them was massive.

It felt like their entire species was being overshadowed.

Despite years of similar training, Saiyans always got ten or even a hundred times the return.

They had accepted this long ago, otherwise, their dreams of martial arts would've already shattered.

"Dad, this Saiyan's aura feels… weird. Like it's different from ours," Gohan said thoughtfully.

His comment drew strange looks from everyone, except Goku.

"You're right. His aura is violent… and frightening! His power level isn't even that high yet, but it gives off a strange, oppressive feeling…" Goku admitted, voicing his concerns.

Raditz felt it too.

But for him, it only made the fight more thrilling.

A strong opponent was exciting, a weak one would've been boring.

He could tell, Broly blamed him for his father's death and was taking out all his rage on him.

"RAAAAAHHHH!!!"

With another furious roar, Broly charged again, power surging to a new level.

He wasn't just overflowing with energy, his entire body now resembled a bloodthirsty beast, utterly unafraid of the pain from Raditz's earlier strike.

In fact, the pain seemed to fuel his power, awakening the force slumbering within.

"Good! Let's see how strong you can really get!" Raditz shouted, swinging his fist once more.

BOOM!!!

Their fists collided again, creating a massive spatial shockwave.

After that blow, both Raditz and Broly rocketed into the sky, battling midair.

But compared to Raditz's composure, Broly clearly lacked control.

Part of it was a power gap, but more importantly, Broly had far less combat experience.

Despite his special nature, how could Broly match Raditz, who had spent his life training and fighting?

Still, Broly wasn't blinded by rage, he was just filled with deep-seated resentment and fury, desperately seeking to prove his worth.

It was the darkness within him finally being unleashed.

After suppressing his emotions for so long, he no longer wanted to be controlled.

He was growing through battle, learning, adapting, and improving.

Broly became stronger with every exchange, refusing to back down even after taking Raditz's attacks.

Despite multiple attempts to overpower him, Broly only became more ferocious, which deeply unsettled Raditz.

He had never fought anyone like this before.

Saiyans were naturally fierce and willing to die in battle, but Broly was on a whole different level.

He didn't just fight recklessly, his power, stamina, and speed were all increasing as the fight went on.

What is this guy?! He's not only learning combat skills during battle, he's getting stronger by the second! That sense of dread is only growing!

Raditz clenched his teeth and furrowed his brows.

No longer holding back, he unleashed his full power in base form.

His current strength? 2.5 trillion.

In this era, that made him nearly invincible.

But under this pressure, Broly only became fiercer.

Eventually, he even surpassed Raditz in raw physical strength.

From a mere billion, to tens of billions, to hundreds, Broly now rivaled teratrillion-level power.

"No! Impossible… I don't believe this!!"

Raditz roared as he blocked another monstrous punch.

He tried to counter, but Broly anticipated the opening and struck again.

BOOM!!!!!!

Broly's fist smashed into Raditz's gut.

The overwhelming force made Raditz spit up bile as he was blasted into the depths of the earth.

To the others, it looked like Broly had just punched Raditz into a crater with one blow.

"RAAAAAHH!!!"

Broly roared in triumph, like a beast announcing dominance.

Even that one shout triggered massive shockwaves and a devastating storm.

At the battlefield's edge, Goku was surprised, then a gleam of excitement flashed across his face.

"Wow… that guy's actually surpassed my brother's base form."

No transformation, and yet he could fight on their level.

Regardless of how he got this strong, Broly was clearly a formidable opponent.

"Something's wrong! Everyone, get ready!!"

Goku's expression changed as he shouted a warning.

Broly wasn't stopping.

He now locked onto the rest of them.

Clearly, he wasn't finished, once the Legendary Super Saiyan bloodline was ignited, this level of battle couldn't satisfy him.

No one noticed the faint flash of violet aura that flickered around Broly.

That was Fu's hidden interference, he had secretly used his unique power to infect Broly, unlocking the full potential of his inner strength.

This was his chance to observe how powerful Goku and the others truly were in this timeline.

Let it all out, go wild, you Legendary Super Saiyan! Hahahaha~!

Only Fu could hear his own voice, hidden deep within a dimensional pocket where no one could detect him.

He quickly calmed himself and turned his focus to the Majin Buu egg.

In the past, he'd never cared about Majin Buu.

The divine presence of the Grand Supreme Kai inside Buu made him too much of a risk.

But now?

He was intrigued, perhaps Buu should come out and play.

Otherwise, this timeline might never even produce a Majin Buu.

Once you're free, you'd better thank me. Maybe I'll even let you absorb Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan! Tsk tsk… if that happened, how strong could you become? If it's just this dimension's power level, things are too boring.

His lazy, scheming tone made it clear, Fu wanted to manipulate everything for fun.

In the sky…

Broly continued roaring. His power grew exponentially, surpassing even 5th-dimensional teratrillion levels and reaching the 6th-dimensional "kei" tier.

Everyone was shaken.

The space itself warped from Broly's escalating energy, shifting in color from deep blue, to red, to purple, to gray…

Finally, when all energy receded into Broly's body, the spatial distortion calmed.

But this was only the calm before the storm.

Goku sensed it first and stepped up, instantly transforming into a Super Saiyan.

In the very next moment, countless energy blasts exploded from Broly's body, raining down in every direction.

Goku went all out, smashing and neutralizing every one of Broly's energy blasts.

Had he not transformed into Full-Power Super Saiyan, with his power rising to several dozen "kei" (京) units within the sixth dimension, even he would have struggled to protect everyone.

At this point, Gohan, Krillin, and Tien were all terrified.

Supreme Kai and Kibito were even more shaken, only one thought remained in their hearts,

"Saiyans… are far too terrifying."

They had thought Broly was just another foot soldier. Maybe a bit stronger than average, but nothing more.

Who would've guessed he was this powerful?

He had long since surpassed the fear that Majin Buu once instilled in them.
