"Hmph, hmph, hmph! Beautiful, isn't it? This is the difference between a god and you mortals. According to your Saiyan naming conventions, let's call it Rose, Super Saiyan Rose~!" The Dark Man said with a wicked smile, confidently introducing his transformation to everyone.
In his opinion, since they were both Super Saiyan Gods, he, as a god, could unleash the God Power to its fullest extent. This was his natural advantage.
But in Vegeta's eyes, the Dark Man's Super Saiyan Rose was nothing more than a Super Saiyan Blue with a different coat of paint.
The power increase from the transformation was the same, without any difference.
"What kind of bullshit Super Saiyan Rose is that? It looks disgusting." Vegeta didn't want to waste any more words, raising his right hand as God Power gathered in his palm.
"Big Bang Attack!!!" Vegeta uttered, and instantly a powerful Energy Blast burst forth from his palm, carrying the power to destroy everything as it shot towards the Dark Man.
Seeing this, the Dark Man smiled contemptuously and leaped away, easily dodging Vegeta's Big Bang Attack.
"You think such an attack can hurt a god? How conceited," the Dark Man said with extreme arrogance.
But his arrogance lasted only three seconds before the smile on his face froze, because Vegeta had already advanced to his front at an even faster speed, his furious Iron Fist, condensed with powerful Godly Power, smashing towards his Face.
"What?!" The Dark Man couldn't believe it and hurriedly raised his hand to block.
Bang~!!! A muffled sound rang out, Godly Power surged, and the space trembled.
The Dark Man was blasted back more than ten meters by this punch.
[Vegeta's power... how can it be so great?!] The Dark Man was horrified, and after feeling the intense pain coming from his arm, he was immediately shocked.
The situation seemed to be turning against him.
Vegeta's Super Saiyan Blue was far more powerful than he had anticipated.
"Die!!!" Vegeta, burning with anger, entered a state of Godly Power eruption, transforming into a deep blue aurora as he charged towards the Dark Man.
The devastating Prince Fighting Style was unleashed, and a fierce, torrential storm of attacks rained down on the Dark Man's body.
Vegeta's furious attacks relentlessly battered the Dark Man's body, and the brutal offensive forced the Dark Man to retreat, able only to defend passively.
[Damn it!! This guy's attack frequency is so fast!! I'm actually... almost unable to parry?!] The Dark Man was greatly shocked. He thought that after mastering Super Saiyan Rose, he could fight Son Goku to a standstill, so dealing with a Vegeta should be more than enough.
But reality was incredibly cruel. Vegeta's strength directly made the Dark Man doubt his life.
If Vegeta was this powerful, then how strong would Son Goku's true strength be? "Iyaaaa!!!" Vegeta roared furiously, shattering the Dark Man's defense with a full-force strike, and then smashing a charged Crushing Fist into the Dark Man's Face.
Bang~!!! Suffering this heavy blow, the Dark Man flew backward like a cannonball, scarlet blood scattering in the space, and in an instant, he pierced through several huge ruins, flying more than ten kilometers before stopping.
The battle situation was completely one-sided, which greatly exceeded Trunks' and Son Goku's expectations.
"Is Dad's Super Saiyan Blue so strong now? He doesn't even need to transform further to beat the Dark Man like that." Trunks finally recognized how formidable his old father's strength was.
It turned out that when they were sparring in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Vegeta had been holding back the entire time, making him mistakenly believe that he had the strength to compete with Super Saiyan Blue.
In the end, his old man had been holding back an ocean!
"Vegeta that guy... is really ruthless." Vegeta's brutality made Son Goku couldn't help but complain.
Seeing his body being beaten up, Son Goku always felt strange.
It was certain that Vegeta was definitely using the Dark Man as a punching bag, venting the anger in his heart.
He only hoped that the battle would end quickly. As long as the Dark Man was killed, then everything would be over.
Son Goku even felt that perhaps he really didn't need to come, and Vegeta could do it alone.
...
In a ruin more than ten kilometers away.
The Dark Man erupted with God Power, blasting away all the stones covering his body, and climbed out of the rubble in an extremely disheveled state.
Vegeta's attacks had caused him considerable damage, a feeling he had never experienced in all previous battles.
If Son Goku was both firm and gentle, then Vegeta was purely firm and fierce, and the terror of his attack power even made him breathless.
"Hmm?! Not good!!" The Dark Man felt the approach of danger and hurriedly looked up towards the sky.
A deep purple Energy Blast tore through space, carrying the ultimate Destructive Power to destroy the world, and blasted towards him.
Unable to avoid it, the Dark Man could only assume a defensive posture and was ultimately mercilessly swallowed by the deep purple Energy Blast.
Rumble~~~!!! The fire of the explosion soared into the sky, and the entire Earth trembled by a third at this moment.
The Dark Man was engulfed by the explosion, his fate unknown.
Vegeta, on the other hand, looked down from above at the center of the explosion. The exchanges in the previous rounds had allowed him to understand how strong the Dark Man's Battle Power was.
Although far inferior to his own, it would still take some effort to completely kill this guy.
"Get out here, you trash! I know you're not dead." Vegeta said with his arms crossed, shouting towards the area of the explosion.
Just as Vegeta's roar faded, the next second, a deep, evil light suddenly rose from the ground, and powerful Godly Might caused the space to tremble, dispelling the smoke from the explosion.
The Dark Man, his face full of anger, was glaring at Vegeta.
"Human, you dare to desecrate a god, you will not die a good death!!!" Enraged, the Dark Man rushed out at full speed, heading straight for Vegeta.
The speed, seemingly at its extreme, was pitifully slow in Vegeta's eyes. Vegeta easily avoided the Dark Man's attack and neutralized all of the Dark Man's remaining offensives.
Bang! Pound!! Vegeta's hands locked onto the Dark Man's fist, and a savage power erupted, causing the Dark Man unbearable pain. The fist creaked, as if the bones were about to burst open in the next second.
The Dark Man's face was extremely unsightly, veins popping out on his forehead, and he could only continuously increase his energy to resist Vegeta's torment.
But the difference in strength was obvious. The current Vegeta, influenced by Talot, was so powerful that he could rival his Super Saiyan Deep Blue evolution during the Tournament of Power! No! Even stronger!
Vegeta could easily beat a mere Rose Dark Man to within an inch of his life with one hand.
"Hmph hmph hmph, this is a god? How laughable..." Vegeta grinned, tilting his head back.
After a brief accumulation of power, he slammed it violently into the Dark Man's Face.
Boom~~!!!! A burst of loud noise.
The Dark Man's pupils shrank violently from the blow, his consciousness almost collapsing, his Godly Power dissipated, and bright red blood floated in the surrounding space.
Vegeta took the opportunity to withdraw his fist and landed a Crushing Fist on the Dark Man's stomach. The powerful fist pressure penetrated the Dark Man's body, severely damaging his internal organs.
Puaah~~!!!! The Dark Man spat out blood, his God Power plummeted, and he clutched his stomach with both hands, his whole body in unbearable pain.
He almost couldn't maintain his Super Saiyan Rose state.
But that wasn't the end of it. Vegeta didn't plan to let this guy off so easily. He grabbed the Dark Man's hair with one hand and lifted him up with a wicked smile.
His other hand clenched tightly, Godly Power condensed on the tip of his fist, and in the Dark Man's horrified gaze, the torment continued!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! ... One after another, shocking sounds of flesh impacting echoed in the space.
The Dark Man's facial features were subjected to torment. Under Vegeta's Iron Fist, which landed again and again, he no longer looked human.
The Super Saiyan Rose state also collapsed, but it is worth mentioning that this guy's willpower was quite tenacious, and he still retained his self-awareness despite suffering such serious injuries.
"Do you still think I'm your sparring partner now? Imposter! Trash like you doesn't even have the qualifications to be my warm-up exercise." Vegeta grinned wickedly, and at this moment, he seemed to have turned back into the Prince of Saiyans.
"Why... is there such a big difference in strength... Why..." The Dark Man didn't understand why he had suffered such a miserable defeat even though he had also mastered the Super Saiyan God transformation.
No matter how he looked at it, he should have been stronger, but the Vegeta in front of him had completely overwhelmed him. With his current strength, he was no match at all...
"Are these your last words? Then I'll answer you. It's because you're an inferior imposter. As far as I know, you should have stolen this body through some special means, right? Like wishing with the Dragon Ball! How laughable. You thought you could master that guy's body, but you don't know that only a pure idiot like him can unleash his full power at will. For you, it's just something borrowed, so how can you understand the essence of Saiyan power?" Vegeta mocked the Dark Man's incompetence and labeled him a waste.
"A borrowed body... unable to unleash its full power..." The Dark Man's face was gloomy, and at this moment, he seemed to have understood something.
He thought that his mastery of this body had surpassed the original owner, but it was not the case.
He had not yet developed all the power within Son Goku's body, not even half of it.
The power of Super Saiyan Rose was just a small, insignificant part of the power contained in this body.
...
The scene changes.
On a mountain peak in the northern mountains.
Zamasu in this timeline was leisurely drinking tea, unaware that his partner was about to be beaten to death by Vegeta.
"Has it been so long since he left and he hasn't returned yet?" At this time, Zamasu noticed the abnormality, expanded his perception, and began to sense the situation on Earth.
If he hadn't sensed it, it would have been fine, but once he did, he was frightened.
The Dark Man's aura had dropped to a very dangerous point, and there was also a terrifying Godly Power that was so powerful that it defied the heavens.
"What happened on his side?! Damn it!! He's messing around again!" Zamasu knew that he could no longer sit idly by. He had to help the other him, otherwise, the other him would probably be killed!
On the battlefield.
Vegeta, in the guise of a victor, looked down upon the half-dead Dark Man, thoroughly enjoying the mixture of anger and unwillingness on his face.
If only Kakarot would make such an expression when I beat him.
If Kakarot were beaten like this, he would be overjoyed, but this Dark Man was just a cheap imitation, leaving Vegeta with little sense of accomplishment.
"Can't even speak anymore? Then I'll end you here!" Vegeta's eyes flashed with killing intent. He casually flung the Dark Man away, then put his hands together, assuming the stance for his ultimate technique.
"Super Galick Gun!!!" With Vegeta's roar, a devastating beam of white-purple energy erupted from his hands, carrying the ultimate Destructive Power to obliterate everything in its path, heading straight for the Dark Man.
Judging by the Dark Man's current condition, being hit by this attack would undoubtedly mean death.
But at this critical moment, Zamasu from this timeline used Instant Transmission to arrive, narrowly saving the Dark Man from Vegeta's Galick Gun.
"What?! This guy actually has an accomplice? And he can use Instant Transmission!" Vegeta was utterly astonished by Zamasu's appearance.
He scrutinized the green-skinned figure, and after a long observation, he confirmed that this was a new enemy, one he didn't recognize.
However, the attire was very similar to those King Kai fellows.
"Who is he?!" Trunks was extremely surprised by the appearance of the Dark Man's accomplice.
He had been fighting the Dark Man all along and had never seen this green-skinned guy.
Where did this guy come from?
What is his true identity? "That outfit is exactly like a King Kai's. Could it be that he's also a King Kai? Or... is he a King Kai from another universe?" Son Goku was uncharacteristically clever, recognizing Zamasu as a King Kai.
Actually, it wasn't hard to tell, given the guy's obvious attire and the Potara earrings he wore, making him easy to identify.
At that moment, the weakened Dark Man opened his eyes. After confirming that Zamasu was the one who had saved him, he said weakly, "You've come..."
"No wonder you're so badly injured. Did those guys from the past timeline chase you here?" Zamasu frowned, then used his healing ability on the Dark Man.
'Buzz~!!!' A verdant light of life was released from Zamasu's hands, and vast life energy poured into the Dark Man's body.
With the addition of this life energy, all the Dark Man's injuries disappeared, restoring him to his peak condition. And because of the Saiyan's traits, his Battle Power increased once again after recovering from his serious injuries!
