Dragon Ball: Escaping from Planet Vegeta

Seizing the opportunity, Cooler once again launched himself at Talot from within the fiery explosion, his fist, charged with boundless destructive power, aimed at Talot's face.

Talot showed no fear, gathering strength in his fist to face Cooler.

'BOOM!!!!!!'

The moment their formidable fists collided, powerful shockwaves raged like a storm in all directions. Even the blazing fire caused by the explosion near the spaceship was blown away by the storm.

In an instant, the winds howled, clouds surged, and the earth trembled.

The ground beneath them sank a hundred meters under the pressure of their power.

"Monkey! This time, I'll tear you to pieces!" Cooler shouted furiously as he launched a fierce assault on Talot, trying to seize the upper hand in battle.

Power surged, and his attacks were insidious and unpredictable, far more savage than during their last encounter. Each strike was aimed at Talot's weaknesses and vital points with deadly precision.

In just a few dozen moves, Talot clearly felt that Cooler's combat techniques had evolved.

But he wasn't far behind!

Talot's formidable combat prowess allowed him to fully analyze Cooler's attack patterns and habits within only a few exchanges. He had perfectly identified a strategy to counter him.

"You're too arrogant! Your whole body is full of openings!" Seizing the moment with a quick spin, Talot landed a full-powered uppercut right on Cooler's chin.

Cooler's pupils trembled slightly from the powerful blow. By the time he regained his senses, he had already been blasted thousands of meters into the sky by the punch.

After sending Cooler flying, Talot had no intention of letting him go so easily. He used Instant Transmission to appear directly above Cooler in advance, brought his hands together, and smashed with full force.

"That move again!!" Cooler roared in fury, but had no chance to dodge.

'BANG!!!' Struck hard once more, Cooler turned into a meteor, plummeting rapidly toward the ground.

Humiliated again and again, Cooler's heart surged with rage, and his murderous intent toward Talot reached an unprecedented peak.

This wild monkey, after transforming into a Super Saiyan, was far stronger than he had expected.

He had thought he could kill him without even needing to transform.

"Damn monkey, don't think that becoming a Super Saiyan means you can do whatever you want!"

Just before hitting the ground, Cooler forcibly regained control of his body, spun quickly, and landed on both feet. He then gathered power and charged again toward Talot like a bolt of lightning.

Seeing this, Talot gathered strength and rushed forward to meet Cooler.

'BOOM!!!' The moment the two collided, a blinding white light burst forth.

A destructive shockwave capable of annihilating everything swept across the battlefield like a storm. Thick dark clouds gathered in the sky, and streaks of lightning exploded within their depths.

Beneath the pitch-black clouds, Cooler and Talot battled at speeds beyond what the naked eye could follow.

With power levels exceeding a hundred million, the shockwaves from each clash carried an overwhelming, soul-shaking terror. Whether it was the Yardratians or the remaining Cooler Force warriors, they all felt fear from the depths of their souls and could not stop their bodies from trembling.

The entire Planet Yardrat trembled continuously from the clash between the two.

...

"So powerful… After all these years, he's grown this strong. And that demon, such a dark aura, feels as if the end of the world has arrived." Grand Elder Pybara sighed with lingering fear.

He had never imagined that someone in this world could reach such an astonishing level of strength.

Even just the shockwaves from their battle were enough to throw Planet Yardrat into an unprecedented upheaval.

Fortunately, Talot stepped in to help. Otherwise, Planet Yardrat might truly have been destroyed by that monster, Cooler.

"I can't see anything clearly in their fight anymore. Their power is no longer on the same level… Can he win?" Chief Pybama forced down the unease in his heart and muttered to himself.

As the Chief of Planet Yardrat, and the one with the highest power level, even though his strength wasn't at the same level as Talot and Cooler, he could at least perceive a few things.

The battle between Talot and Cooler was intense and evenly matched. It wouldn't be easy to determine a victor.

And for some reason, he had an ominous premonition.

It wasn't that he doubted Talot's strength, but he could feel that within Cooler's body, there was an even more terrifying energy.

…

At the same time.

On North Kai's Planet.

North Kai was closely monitoring everything happening on Planet Yardrat.

The fierce battle between Talot and Cooler had grown so intense that even he, a Kai, clenched his fists tightly.

This clash was clearly far beyond their previous encounter.

[Cooler is too dangerous. Even without transforming, he already has the power to fight Talot's Super Saiyan form head-on. If he transforms... this could go very badly.] North Kai thought to himself in alarm.

Even though Talot still had higher Super Saiyan forms and the power of the Great Ape he hadn't used yet, defeating Cooler head-on might not be so simple.

Salari and Raditz stood behind North Kai, watching the unfolding events through his special ability.

Though they were on North Kai's Planet, his special ability gave them a vivid, almost first-hand experience of the battle.

The sheer intensity of the battle was beyond anything they could currently comprehend.

Salari and Raditz had their eyes tightly shut, weighed down with heavy emotions, cold sweat unknowingly streaming down their foreheads.

[So this is Talot's current strength? The gap between us is growing wider and wider… and this is just an ordinary Super Saiyan…] This battle once again expanded Raditz's perspective and made him acutely aware of his own weakness.

Also, if he were the one who had mastered Super Saiyan and switched places with Talot to face Cooler, could he reach this level?

Not to belittle himself, but Raditz didn't believe he could manage that.

If it were him fighting Cooler, even with the power of Super Saiyan, he probably wouldn't last more than a few rounds.

Cooler was just too strong!

[Brother Talot hasn't even used his full strength yet. And Cooler hasn't transformed either. If this is just their warm-up... Brother Talot, can you really beat him?] Salari wondered silently in her heart.
