"I'm working. I haven't finished my tasks for today."

  "So, Vegeta, do you need something? If not, I'll get back to it. If I'm te, Chi-Chi will scold me again."

  Goku put his hands on his hips, waiting for Vegeta's reply.

  Hearing this, Vegeta's lips twitched. He didn't expect that Goku, the strongest Saiyan he acknowledged, had fallen so low.

  Work? Why work? They were powerful Saiyans.

  Vegeta felt sympathy for Goku's situation.

  If he were in that situation, he would probably use force to rule the Earth directly.

  But that was all in the future. He didn't come today to waste time.

  "Let's fight, Kakarot!" Vegeta issued a challenge to Goku with a firm tone.

  Hearing that Vegeta had come to fight, Goku's interest was piqued. He gnced at the cultivator behind him and tossed the cultivation aside without hesitation.

  He could work anytime. It had been a year since he had a good workout, and his body was getting rusty.

  Vegeta's visit made his hands itch.

  Without transforming into Super Saiyan 4, Vegeta could give him the thrill of battle.

  "Alright, but we have to find another pce. If we cause damage here, it'll be troublesome with Chi-Chi," Goku agreed to Vegeta's challenge. He was also looking forward to Vegeta's current strength.

  "Hmph! Whatever," Vegeta didn't care about the battlefield. He just wanted to compete with Goku now.

  Soon, Goku took off his work clothes, and the two, having reached an agreement, burst into the sky and flew away.

  ...

  Soon, the two arrived at a rocky area dozens of kilometers away from Mount Paozu.

  This was a barren area. Humans hadn't developed it yet, and no animals lived there because of the harsh environment.

  Goku and Vegeta descended from the sky, nding on rocks of different heights. The two faced each other, and an invisible aura formed, making the atmosphere of battle even more intense.

  "Come to think of it, we haven't competed since we parted three years ago."

  "Now that three years have passed, how much has your power increased, Vegeta?"

  Goku looked at Vegeta with a smile, and a fsh of light passed through his eyes. An invisible aura pressed down on Vegeta.

  "Hmph!" Vegeta snorted coldly. Goku's little trick couldn't have escaped his eyes.

  "Today is different from the past, Kakarot!! I! Am no longer the me of the past!!" With a loud shout, Vegeta went all out in his base form. A white aura surrounded him, and a terrifying aura soared into the sky, shaking the globe.

  The two's auras collided, stirring up space and shaking the earth. The pressure in this area became unstable just from the csh of auras.

  Countless boulders on the ground were peeled off, suspended in mid-air, and then crushed by the powerful air pressure, turning into countless fragments scattered in the sky.

  The csh of auras between the two sides was evenly matched. Vegeta transformed into Super Saiyan 1 at full power and speed and rushed towards Goku.

  Seeing Vegeta take the initiative to attack, Goku wasn't moved. He smiled slightly.

  In the next second, Vegeta rushed to Goku's front and threw a heavy punch.

  Goku, who had expected it, turned his head slightly and perfectly dodged Vegeta's frontal heavy punch.

  Having dodged one strike, Vegeta quickly changed his strategy. His punches and kicks were as fast as lightning, continuous.

  Faced with Vegeta's fierce attack, Goku kept dodging, dealing with it calmly.

  The battlefield changed constantly. Goku retreated to advance, inducing Vegeta to attack while exposing his weaknesses.

  'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!... ' The sound of shocking blows was continuous.

  Vegeta unched dozens of powerful attacks in a matter of seconds, which Goku perfectly resolved with his prior pnning.

  Having failed to hit Goku with dozens of attacks, Vegeta's anger grew even stronger, and he threw an iron fist, gathering all his strength.

  Goku, who had been prepared for this, crossed his arms to form a cross, posing in a defensive stance.

  'Boom!!!!!!!!' There was a loud bang.

  The terrifying power spread throughout Goku's body but failed to shake Goku at all.

  "What?!" Vegeta was shocked and looked incredulous.

  His full-power attack in Super Saiyan 1 form had no effect on Goku.

  "It's my turn, Vegeta." Goku said, causing Vegeta's heart to tremble.

  White electric light fshed around Goku, and a terrifying aura erupted.

  'Boom!!!!' The white aura turned into a storm, reaching the sky.

  The burst of aura alone forced Super Saiyan 1 Vegeta back a hundred meters.

  Switching from defense to attack, Goku took the initiative to attack, and his devastating punches and kicks all nded on Vegeta's body.

  Faced with Goku's initiative, Super Saiyan 1 Vegeta defended with all his might.

  'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!... ' The sound of the collision of limbs was continuous.

  Faced with Goku's initiative, Vegeta was clearly struggling.

  Even if the Majin Buu from back then was still alive, he wouldn't have given him such great pressure.

  He was no longer the same as before. Even in Super Saiyan 1 form, Vegeta was confident that he could kill the Majin Buu from back then in ten rounds!

  But now, the harsh reality gave Vegeta a shock. His Super Saiyan 1 form was suppressed by Goku's base form!

  No! It should be said, completely defeated!

  Under Goku's multiple attacks, Vegeta's defense was broken, and Goku's heavy punch was embedded in his abdomen.

  'Ptooey!' Vegeta spat out a mouthful of acid from his mouth.

  The remaining force penetrated Vegeta's body and shattered the rocky mountain behind Vegeta.

  Having suffered a heavy blow, Vegeta clutched his abdomen and kept backing away, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes and intense horror.

  "Impossible...this kind of thing..." Vegeta endured the pain and straightened his back.

  "Haaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!" Vegeta let out an angry roar, and electric light exploded around him, entering Super Saiyan 2 to the extreme.

  His energy exploded, and the pain was suppressed, making Vegeta feel a little better.

  "Super Saiyan 2?" Goku smiled slightly, still not pnning to transform.

  Vegeta saw this.

  A strong sense of shame made Vegeta's heart rage, and he roared, "Are you humiliating me?! Kakarot!!"

  "I! Came to fight you!!"

  "I, Vegeta!! Don't need your pity, show me your full strength!"

  Vegeta roared one after another, unwilling to give up. Goku felt his determination to compete with him.
