c70: Super Saiyan Son Goku
BOOM!
Son Goku launched forward like a comet. In a flash, he reached the Apokato brothers and struck Apo with a clean punch, sending him flying into a distant cliffside. Kado immediately retaliated, launching an attack from Goku's blind side but Goku smoothly evaded and countered with a sharp spinning kick that sent Kado hurtling backwards.
"As expected of Son Goku… Even with a suppressed combat power of just 500,000, he's overwhelming the Apokato brothers." Li Xu nodded to himself from the shadows.
Goku's true strength far exceeded his base battle power. His masterful control over ki, combined with countless life-or-death battles, made him formidable. Even Li Xu had to admit Goku's combat instincts were unmatched.
"Awesome!" Krillin exclaimed, fists clenched with relief as Goku held the upper hand.
If Goku couldn't handle the Apokato brothers, the entire group's survival would be in serious jeopardy.
The brothers, now separated and dazed, exchanged a brief nod. They floated side by side and shouted in unison:
"Fusion!"
A whirling cyclone of ki enveloped them. The energy swirled rapidly, creating a massive vortex in the air. At its center, a massive power began to coalesce—
unlike anything Goku had felt from them individually.
When the cyclone cleared, a towering warrior emerged. His skin was violet, a single twisted horn protruded from his forehead, and his physique was far larger and more muscular than either brother had been before.
"What the…?" Goku blinked. His expression hardened. He could feel it now this was a completely different level of threat.
"HERE I COME!"
The fused warrior Apokato rushed Goku at blinding speed. Before Goku could brace, he was uppercutted skyward. Apokato immediately flashed above him and hammered him down with a double-fisted strike.
BANG!
Goku smashed into the ground like a meteor, his body embedded in the rocky surface as dust and debris blanketed the battlefield.
"W-What the hell is that thing?!" Krillin stammered, cold sweat trickling down his cheek. Their earlier confidence had evaporated.
"Goku's in trouble." Tien Shinhan clenched his jaw. Apokato's aura was massive none of them dared to move.
"A power level of eighty million... almost identical to perfect fusion." Li Xu observed. "Their synergy is incredible. Apokato's power is nearly ten times the brothers' combined individual strength."

"Kaio-ken x10!"
Goku's voice echoed from the dust. In a fiery blaze of red aura, he exploded from the crater and struck Apokato with a straight punch but Apokato caught the blow effortlessly.
Goku didn't hesitate. He twisted midair and drove a kick into Apokato's abdomen, finally sending the fused warrior flying.
BOOM BOOM BOOM!
Apokato tore through several giant boulders before skidding to a halt, finally buried beneath tons of debris.
"Huff… Huff..."
Despite the successful attack, Goku's breathing became labored. The strain of the Kaio-ken x10 technique was evident his body trembling under the intense pressure.
BANG!
A roar erupted from the rubble as Apokato emerged, bruised but grinning, levitating a short distance from Goku.
"You're strong… but try handling this! SUPER ENERGY DESTRUCTION WAVE!"
Apokato's body flared with green energy, which spiraled into a compact sphere at his core. With a grunt, he launched the pulsing orb toward Goku.
"Kamehameha!"
Reacting instantly, Goku countered with his signature energy wave. The twin blasts collided midair, sending shockwaves across the barren terrain as they struggled for dominance. Slowly, Goku began losing ground.
"Not good!" Krillin shouted, stepping forward. He wanted to help, but the sheer gap in strength rooted him in place.
"Kaio-ken x20!!"
Goku roared, his aura doubling in size and intensity. Veins bulged, and his hair fluttered violently in the explosive energy field. He diverted some of the energy upward and hurled two Ki Blasts into the sky.
Apokato narrowed his eyes.
"Not bad! But try dodging this SUPER WAHAHA-BO!" he cackled, intrigued that Goku could still resist his assault.
Apokato brought his hands together, then slowly pulled them apart. Between his palms, a glowing green energy sphere formed, pulsing with chaotic power. As the space between his hands widened, the sphere grew larger and more unstable.
"Super Wahaha Wave!"
Apokato roared. Then, in a brutal twist, he opened his mouth and spat out a beam of energy, which shot through the green orb between his palms. As the beam pierced through, it splintered into dozens of smaller ki blasts like a deadly energy shotgun.
"Crap!"
Son Goku deflected several of the incoming blasts with casual swipes of his arms. But the attack wasn't aimed at just him many of the energy balls scattered and streaked toward the others watching the battle.
"Get out of the way!" shouted Piccolo, eyes narrowing.
Piccolo and Vegeta were fast enough to swat the projectiles away though even they struggled to deflect all of them. Tien Shinhan managed to roll and leap clear, narrowly escaping each blast by the skin of his teeth.
But Krillin wasn't as lucky. He barely dodged the first shot when a second came screaming toward him and he had no time to react.
"Krillin!!"
Son Goku's scream echoed across the battlefield. His heart dropped as he watched helplessly. He couldn't use Instant Transmission fast enough in the middle of this barrage.
BOOM!
The ki blast exploded directly against Krillin's position. A massive column of fire and smoke surged into the air, completely swallowing him. The force of the blast rocked the area.
As the smoke cleared, there was nothing left where Krillin had stood no trace of his figure, and worst of all, no ki signature.
"Unforgivable…!!"
Son Goku's expression twisted into pure rage. His entire body trembled. Krillin had been his closest friend since childhood. They had trained under Master Roshi, fought in the World Martial Arts Tournament, and shared countless battles across Earth and space.
At that moment, Goku's aura surged. His hair flashed violently between black and golden, energy pulsating wildly.
"Li Xu, what's happening to Goku?!" Krillin asked in shock.
At the moment of impact, Li Xu had secretly saved Krillin, hiding his ki signature to make it appear as though he'd perished. He watched Goku's transformation unfold.
"A Saiyan transforms into a Super Saiyan under conditions of extreme emotional upheaval. Son Goku has already met every other requirement. All he needed was the catalyst of pure rage." Li Xu said with a calm, knowing look.
"Super Saiyan? I've heard Vegeta talk about it..." Krillin muttered, stunned.
"Vegeta may know the legend, but he hasn't truly grasped what it means. Not yet." Li Xu shook his head.
"AAAAAHHHHH!!"
Goku's scream shook the battlefield. His energy exploded upward, a golden aura surrounding his entire body. His hair shifted fully to brilliant gold, his eyes turned teal, and the sheer power rolling off him warped the air itself.
"Impossible!"
Vegeta stared in disbelief. His fists trembled as his knuckles whitened, veins bulging. The form before him the glowing hair, the radiant aura—it was exactly as the legends described.
The Super Saiyan had returned… and it was Son Goku.
