"The initial stage of Super Saiyan 4... Don't tell me there's something beyond that?!!!" Goku's pupils contracted sharply, a look of shock flashing through his eyes, his face filled with disbelief.
Super Saiyan 4 was already absurdly powerful in his eyes, practically the limit of a Saiyan.
Yet what he never expected was that this still wasn't the complete form of Super Saiyan 4?
"You guessed right. Next..." The moment Talot finished speaking, a sacred light flashed through his eyes.
In the next second, a profound and mysterious God Ki surged from within his body, revolving around him.
[This power... it's that same feeling from before! What exactly is this technique?!] As a spectator, Vegeta immediately connected it to the battle he had just fought against Talot.
The invisible power Talot had released with a mere glance before was this very same power now being unleashed.
So it hadn't been his imagination after all. This invisible power was the key to completing Super Saiyan 4's complete form!
Bzzzz~!!!!
The God Ki rapidly contracted back inward, and Talot's Super Saiyan 4 form underwent visible changes.
His body became even more robust. His crimson waist-length hair flowed wildly. A dazzling divine radiance surrounded him, perfectly blending divinity and wild nature.
This was Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker!
As everyone gazed at Talot's current Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker form, their breathing grew heavy, and for a moment they were completely transfixed.
At this moment, both their bodies and souls were swept by an invisible divine might, leaving them unable to recover their senses for quite some time.
"This is the complete form of Super Saiyan 4. Its name is Super Saiyan 4, Limit Breaker!" Talot explained.
Hearing his words, everyone gradually came back to their senses.
"The complete form of Super Saiyan 4... Limit Breaker? I can't sense any aura at all. What's going on..." Vegeta was the first to recover. His sharp eyes remained fixed on Talot, unwilling to miss even the slightest detail as he engraved the image of Talot's Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker into his memory.
At the same time, he became even more exhilarated. The complete form of Super Saiyan 4 was now his next goal.
This form was the pinnacle of what Saiyan bloodline power could achieve.
As the Prince of the Saiyans, carrying royal blood and possessing a noble lineage, he was destined to walk the path of Super Saiyan 4.
There was no transformation more suitable for him than Super Saiyan 4!
"I can't sense any aura at all, but there's this suffocating pressure... Is this the power of Super Saiyan 4? Unbelievable." Future Trunks secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his face full of disbelief.
He had imagined what Super Saiyan 4 might be like before, but now that he had witnessed it with his own eyes, the difference between reality and his imagination was far greater than he had ever expected.
Because of this, a bold thought even emerged in Future Trunks' mind. Was Super Saiyan 4 what Saiyans looked like after returning to their ancestral roots?
If it was an ancestral form, could he achieve this transformation as well?
After all, he was a half-Saiyan, not a pure-blooded Saiyan.
"So Saiyans can actually keep transforming and grow to such a terrifying level... If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it. The power of Super Saiyans truly has no end. It still needs to be developed even further." After witnessing Talot's transformation firsthand, Goku was deeply moved.
The power of Super Saiyan 4 had genuinely refreshed his understanding of what a Super Saiyan could be.
As long as one continued training and deeply developed their bloodline, they could become this powerful. In the past, he wouldn't have even dared to imagine such a thing.
But things were different now. The appearance of Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker had changed his outlook, making Goku firmly believe that Saiyans had no limits.
There might even be a Super Saiyan 5 beyond Super Saiyan 4.
"Uncle Talot, may I ask something? Since Super Saiyan 4 exists, does Super Saiyan 5 exist as well? Or is Super Saiyan 4 truly the limit of our Saiyan race?" Son Gohan turned toward Talot and voiced the curiosity in his heart.
It was also exactly what everyone else wanted to know, yet didn't dare ask.
Everyone perked up their ears, waiting for Talot's answer.
Was Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker truly the limit of the Saiyan race?
Or was it merely the beginning?
"That's a very good question. Whether Super Saiyan 5 exists has not yet been proven. Even I have yet to touch upon it. However, what I can tell you is that Saiyans have no limits. When you grow to a certain level in the future, perhaps Super Saiyan 5 will appear through you." Talot held Son Gohan in extremely high regard. As long as the boy didn't give up training and continued training over the years, with the accumulation of time and his innate talent and potential, it would not be difficult for him to become the strongest among the Z Fighters.
Son Gohan was greatly surprised by how much importance Talot placed on him.
Not only him, but everyone else was also astonished. No one had expected Talot to value Son Gohan so highly.
As for Goku, it seemed as though he had recalled something, wanting to speak but stopping himself.
"I really... can do it? Super Saiyan 5?" Son Gohan suppressed the excitement in his heart. Talot's recognition greatly encouraged him and filled him with confidence.
"Of course you can. In my opinion, every one of you has the potential to learn Super Saiyan 5," Talot explained.
Hearing this, Son Gohan pondered for a moment before nodding seriously.
Forget mastering Super Saiyan 5, at the very least, he wanted to surpass himself and reach a higher level, ensuring that when enemies appeared someday in the future, he would be able to provide significant help as well.
Immediately afterward, Talot canceled his Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker transformation.
His purpose in coming here had already been fulfilled. It was time to return.
At the same time, he was looking forward to seeing just how much Goku and Son Gohan's power levels would increase after emerging from the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
Was it possible that they might directly surpass Vegeta and achieve the Super Saiyan 3 transformation?
After all, Goku was the protagonist, even if Talot had never shown him Super Saiyan 3.
After exchanging a few more words with everyone, Talot took the initiative to bid farewell and used Instant Transmission to return to West City.
Goku and Son Gohan remained behind, waiting for Popo to prepare the supplies needed for training. Once everything was ready, they would enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to begin their training.
Future Trunks, after speaking briefly with Goku and Son Gohan, also set off for West City.
He had intentionally avoided leaving together with Talot.
For him, the crisis of this timeline had already been resolved, but the future world he came from was still suffering under the Androids' disaster. Now that his strength had become sufficiently powerful, it was time for him to return, quell the chaos of the future world, and eliminate that Cell as well.
Only after completely putting an end to the disaster of the future would he finally be at ease.
As for Vegeta, he did not hurry to leave. Instead, he looked at Goku provocatively and said, "Kakarot, I hope your strength after coming out won't disappoint me."
"Of course. Maybe after Gohan and I finish our training, our power levels might even surpass yours," Goku said with a grin.
Hearing this, the corner of Vegeta's mouth curled into a wicked smile, completely unconcerned.
Now, he had already surpassed Kakarot, and he had absolute confidence that even if Goku entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train, he would never be able to overtake him.
Once he had surpassed him, catching up again would not be so easy!
"I'll be waiting to see," Vegeta said before arrogantly turning around.
The two years of high-intensity training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber had placed an enormous burden on the body. Even as the Prince of all Saiyans, he had been affected to some extent.
Now, he also needed rest, reflection, and absorb the experience of his battle with Talot.
