Bang!
Kale's body was sent flying by a kick from Son Goku with a dull explosive sound.
Caulifla, whom she had been holding in her hand, flew alongside her.
The sudden attack left Kale with no time to react. The Energy Blast she had been preparing was forcibly interrupted. She rolled across the ground several times, losing her balance completely and forcing her to let go of Caulifla.
Caulifla had not even processed what had happened before her body stumbled and rolled across the ground several times as well.
But she did not seem to care about the pain at all.
She immediately scrambled back to her feet, eager to confirm whether what she had just seen was real.
The moment she stood up again, her entire body froze.
It was as though she had been struck by a paralysis spell; her eyes were fixed tightly on the unfamiliar figure before her.
It was a man with a wild appearance.
His entire body was covered in crimson fur, even the area around his eyes.
Yet, despite his unfamiliar appearance, Caulifla recognized the silhouette as Son Goku.
However, she doubted her own eyes, so she asked cautiously:
"Son Goku?"
The wild-looking man merely nodded slightly.
At that moment, Son Goku had already transformed into Super Saiyan 4. Earlier, when he was in Super Saiyan God form, Caulifla could not sense Son Goku's aura at all. But now, in his Super Saiyan 4 form, she could clearly and tangibly feel an overwhelming pressure coming from him.
The sensation gripped her throat tightly, leaving her barely able to breathe.
About ten seconds later, Caulifla finally came to her senses.
"Son Goku! Bastard! You were playing with me the whole time!"
At that moment, she looked just like a street shrew, utterly disdainful of his behavior.
She had originally thought that the Super Saiyan God transformation was absurd enough, but she never imagined that Son Goku could transform again.
Goku scratched his head and looked at Caulifla in confusion.
"What's wrong, Caulifla? You seem really angry."
Hearing this made Caulifla even more embarrassed and furious.
"What kind of transformation is this now?! Damn it! How many transformations do you have? Why didn't you tell me sooner?!"
Son Goku continued to scratch his head.
"Well, you never asked me. Let me count…"
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5…"
"Ah, I can't remember anymore!"
Son Goku had never seriously counted this sort of thing before. To him, it was a real headache.
Other than getting stronger and training, his brain really didn't have room for much else, and it was precisely at that moment that Kale stood up again.
Her pale, rage-filled eyes glared fiercely in Son Goku's direction.
With just that single glance, it felt as though time itself had frozen.
Her previously chaotic thoughts suddenly became crystal clear.
She finally realised that it was this human-like monkey standing before her who had kicked her flying earlier. This realization only made the flames of anger within her burn even more fiercely. Clenching her fists tightly, she repeatedly pounded her chest while roaring furiously.
With each roar, the immense power hidden deep within her seemed to answer the call, surging violently and urging her to launch an immediate, ferocious attack on Son Goku.
The energy cannon that had only just dissipated gathered in her hand once more, before it had even fully cooled.
Its glowing muzzle resembled the gaping maw of a savage beast, ready to devour its prey at any moment.
"ROAR!"
Accompanied by a deafening howl, the energy cannon tore through the air with unstoppable force, like a dazzling bolt of lightning charging straight towards Son Goku.
Wherever it passed, space itself seemed to distort faintly, accompanied by sharp, sizzling sounds.
Yet, despite facing such a fierce attack, Son Goku remained completely calm.
Just as the energy cannon was about to collide with his body, he sidestepped like a phantom at the critical final moment, evading it.
Though the movement appeared simple, it actually involved an unfathomably profound level of speed.
Unfortunately, while Son Goku successfully avoided the blast, the towering mountains behind him were not so fortunate.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
A series of earth-shaking explosions erupted instantly. The entire land began trembling violently in that moment as the mountains collapsed and rocks scattered everywhere.
The once unbroken mountain range was torn apart by the terrifying impact.
Some peaks were completely flattened, leaving nothing but rubble and clouds of dust in their wake.
Son Goku turned his head and glanced at the devastation behind him.
"Whew~ That's seriously impressive."
"Caulifla, if you'd been hit by that just now, the consequences would've been unimaginable."
After speaking, Son Goku glanced sideways at Caulifla.
Caulifla stared at the ruined wasteland in shock. This was an enhanced arena, far sturdier than ordinary structures.
Yet Kale had still flattened it completely.
Son Goku was right, if she had been hit earlier, she would probably have died on the spot.
Though she was unwilling to admit it, she could not deny that Son Goku was right.
"Hmm… maybe Vegeta's method really is pretty good. I think I should try his approach too." Son Goku muttered to himself.
He recalled the method Vegeta had once used against Z Broly.
'Beat him until he regained his senses!'
Vegeta had actually succeeded before. Likewise, Kale was the Demon Saiyan of Universe 6.
Perhaps the same method would work on her as well!
Having made up his mind, Son Goku stopped wasting time and moved forward quickly.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared directly in front of her.
She had not even realised he was there when a punch smashed into her face.
The force of the blow pushed her several steps backwards.
When she came to her senses and looked up, he was no longer there.
Then, in that same instant, a streak of golden light shot across the sky like a meteor.
Son Goku then descended from above like a god descending upon the world.
His body was as firm as a mountain, his legs slightly bent as he gathered his power to its absolute limit.
"WAKE UP, KALE!!!"
Son Goku's roar thundered like heavenly wrath, filled with endless authority and dominance. His voice had an astonishingly penetrating force, as though it could reach directly into one's soul and make anyone who heard it tremble instinctively.
In an instant, it completely drew Kale's attention.
She subconsciously raised her head and looked in the direction from which the voice had come.
At that moment, an extremely violent gale howled down towards her like a savage beast.
The wind pressure was so intense that the surrounding air emitted shrill whistling noises as though it were about to shatter under the strain.
Barely a breath later, an enormous leg entered her vision.
The muscles on that leg were perfectly defined and faintly glowed with golden light, seemingly containing endless power.
Even though Kale had already lost her sanity, the sight of such terrifying power still caused a trace of fear to emerge deep within her heart.
However, everything happened far too quickly, leaving her no time to think.
A deafening explosion rang out.
"BOOOOOOM——!!!"
Son Goku unleashed a vicious kick, moving with the speed of lightning and with the overwhelming force of a collapsing mountain and a crashing sea.
Kale had no chance to react at all before her entire body was smashed into the ground like a cannonball.
The instant her body violently collided with the earth, the ground trembled violently as countless clouds of dust and shattered rocks exploded outward.
The once-flat and solid ground instantly caved into a bottomless crater, while Kale's body became deeply embedded at the very bottom.
