Black Z Broly stared intently at the tall figure standing in the distance, Super Broly. The moment he saw him, an invisible pressure washed over him, making his heart skip a beat.
The man standing before him was like an unshakable mountain, his aura terrifyingly steady. Black Z Broly focused all of his senses, yet he couldn't detect the slightest fluctuation in Super Broly's ki.
That unnatural stability immediately set off alarm bells in his head, and he began to doubt all the information he'd gathered.
According to his intelligence, the two Brolys from Universe 7 were supposed to lose themselves the instant they entered battle, completely consumed by their berserk Saiyan instincts.
But the Super Broly standing before him showed none of that. Confusion flashed across Black Z Broly's face.
'How is this possible?' he thought. 'His soul shouldn't be this stable.'
Old memories surfaced in his mind.
'Back then, when the other "me" switched bodies with him... no matter whose body he occupied, he was still just as savage and uncontrollable. He could never suppress that violent instinct.'
Black Z Broly frowned deeply. "So why... why is this version so calm?"
Just as he was lost in thought, a dense green aura suddenly erupted from Super Broly, and Black Z Broly's pupils shrank. He knew exactly what that green aura meant: Super Broly was about to unleash his true power.
Wrapped in the green energy, Super Broly's body rapidly changed.
His muscles swelled, veins bulging beneath his skin like coiled dragons, and in the blink of an eye, he entered the berserk form that had once been impossible for him to control, the very same form that had beaten Frieza senseless for an entire hour.
But now, the energy radiating from him was different. Compared to before, it was calmer... deeper... completely under control. He had finally mastered that overwhelming power instead of being controlled by it.
An enormous weight settled on Black Z Broly's chest as jealousy and disbelief churned inside him.
'Same hair color... same bloodline... so why is he stronger than me?! Did I end up with some fake body? Is this body's true power being held back? Damn it! What the hell is going on?! Are you kidding me?!'
His pride shattered, Black Z Broly finally snapped. Without hesitation, he infused the Legendary Super Saiyan body with Zamasu's Divine Ki. A sacred, godly aura slowly rose from him, merging with his own overwhelming power and creating a violent storm of energy inside his body.
At that exact moment, Super Broly's incredible senses picked up the change. The person standing before him wasn't his brother; he was someone who merely looked exactly like him.
"You have Divine Ki." Super Broly's eyes narrowed. "You're not my brother."
Black Z Broly's eyes lit up.
'Interesting... He can even sense Divine Ki? His perception is far sharper than I expected. Underestimating him was a fatal mistake.'
"Hmph... impressive." A faint smirk spread across Black Z Broly's face as he tried to hide the unease creeping into his heart. "I didn't expect you to figure it out this quickly. In that case... I'll show you my real power!"
As his low roar echoed across the island, a colossal surge of energy exploded from his body, rising like a boundless golden ocean so dazzling that it blotted out the sky. His muscles expanded even further, every fiber packed with overwhelming strength, while a faint golden glow spread across his skin.
At the same time, the once-calm sea began to churn violently as massive ripples spread in every direction.
Driven by Black Z Broly's immense power, those ripples gradually turned a brilliant rose-pink, as beautiful as a sunset on the ocean, yet filled with deadly intent. The pink waves expanded at astonishing speed until they covered the entire sea, and wherever they passed, the seawater boiled into clouds of steam.
Then...
'ROOOOAR!!'
A gigantic tidal wave, towering tens of thousands of meters into the sky, erupted from the ocean like an apocalyptic beast. The heavens themselves trembled beneath its terrifying power.
The winds howled, and the thick clouds overhead were ripped apart as the colossal wave surged toward the sky.
The violent explosion of energy swept across the entire Island Module like a raging storm.
Everywhere it passed, sand and rocks were blasted into the air, trees were torn apart, and enormous boulders were effortlessly ground into dust that scattered on the wind.
The sky and sea blended into one endless expanse of rose-pink, painting the entire world in a dreamlike color, beautiful enough to resemble paradise, yet filled with a terrifying killing intent.
At the same time, Black Z Broly's long green hair instantly turned rose-pink as well, dancing wildly in the wind like blazing flames to perfectly match the overwhelming aura pouring from his body. This was the Legendary Super Saiyan empowered by Divine Ki.
"I'll eliminate you using your own brother's body. Now 'ca-ching', 'that's' something worth remembering! Hahaha!"
Standing before Super Broly in his new form, Black Z Broly laughed arrogantly. With his arms folded and chin raised, he looked down on Super Broly with complete confidence, utterly convinced that no one could match his strength now.
Super Broly froze for a moment. From that single sentence, he realized something horrifying: the man in front of him had somehow stolen his brother's body. Then a memory flashed through his mind, and his expression changed dramatically.
"What did you just say?! You're saying... this body belongs to my brother?!"
His eyes widened in disbelief as he stepped forward, both fists clenching tightly.
"You're from Universe 6?! Damn you! I never imagined you'd use such a despicable method!"
His voice shook with rage, his eyes already beginning to redden.
"Then where's my brother?! What did you do to him?!"
Super Broly's heart pounded. In his memory, Champa had taken his brother to Universe 6.
The Tournament of Power wasn't just something he'd entered because Trunks asked him to; he had his own reason. He wanted to see his little brother again. And now... this revelation hit him like a bucket of ice water.
Black Z Broly smiled, without the slightest warmth in it.
"That's an excellent question."
He deliberately dragged out his words, savoring the panic and despair spreading across Super Broly's face.
"Since you're so desperate to know where your brother is... I'll tell you."
With his hands behind his back, Black Z Broly slowly paced back and forth.
"After we switched bodies, he was still completely out of control."
He shook his head with fake regret, though satisfaction filled his eyes.
"He actually tried to kill me. But after losing this powerful body... he was nothing more than an insect."
He paused, admiring how pale Super Broly had become before casually delivering the final blow.
"So... I killed him."
Those words hit Super Broly like a bolt of lightning, and he stood there frozen, unable to move.
After all, Super Broly knew nothing about parallel universes. In his simple understanding, the person Black Z Broly had killed had to be his real brother, and the news pierced his heart like a knife.
All the emotional control he had painstakingly built through Whis's harsh training collapsed in an instant.
An overwhelming green aura erupted from Super Broly's body, exploding upward with unstoppable force and surging straight into the heavens as if it would tear the sky apart. The beautiful sea of rose-colored clouds was instantly swallowed by the endless green energy.
At the same time, Super Broly's determined eyes gradually turned blood-red, overflowing with grief and murderous intent.
Then his pupils slowly disappeared, leaving only eerie white eyes that made him look terrifying. At last, he could no longer suppress the grief and fury burning inside him.
He threw back his head and roared with everything he had.
"Give... my brother... BACK!!!!"
