On the desert surface, the battle was nearing its end.
Dabura was completely suppressed by Gohan, no longer showing the aura of the King of the Demon Realm.
"Damn it! You've been hiding your strength, deliberately toying with me!" Dabura said angrily.
"Hiding my strength? I wasn't." Gohan looked bewildered.
"Still denying it?" Dabura gritted his teeth. "If you weren't hiding your strength, how could you start out about the same as me, then suddenly become stronger than me?"
"Of course it's because I grew stronger during the fight." Gohan said matter-of-factly. "Isn't that how you do it?"
"Growing stronger during a fight?" Dabura was so angry he laughed. Who could possibly grow that much during a fight?
This cunning Earthling was still toying with him!
Just then, a low rumble in the sky approached from afar.
A rugged-looking spaceship suddenly broke through the clouds and landed on an empty patch of desert nearby.
This sudden change instantly drew the attention of everyone present.
The hatch opened, and a figure slowly walked out.
It was a tall, somewhat stooped old man.
He had giant, goat-like curved horns, and his skin was dark blue.
Dabura, already somewhat delirious from being beaten by Gohan, saw this suddenly appearing goat demon and instinctively thought he was reinforcements sent by Babidi.
He actively flew forward. "Were you sent by Babidi-sama to assist me? Quick, help me take care of that brat!"
However, when he met those murky eyes, all he saw in the other's gaze was appetite.
This goat demon was naturally Moro, the ancient demon who had just escaped from the Galactic Prison.
Seeing Dabura deliver himself to his mouth, the corners of Moro's withered mouth curled up, revealing sparse, sharp teeth. "Heh, delicious food..."
Before he finished speaking, Moro's seemingly withered arm shot out with a terrifying speed that completely belied his aged appearance.
Dabura had no time to react before being caught in Moro's grasp.
"Bastard! Let me go!" Dabura roared angrily, but no matter how he struggled, he could not break free from those arms.
Even his always successful petrification spit had no effect on the other party.
"How is this possible? What kind of monster are you?" Dabura finally felt fear. His life force was rapidly fading.
In just a few microseconds, his body turned into a skeleton, devoid of life.
Seeing this terrifying scene, Krillin felt a chilling cold surge into his heart.
Although Dabura had been defeated by Gohan, their strength was very close. He was definitely no weakling.
Yet the King of the Demon Realm, so powerful, was completely powerless against this suddenly appeared goat demon, and was quickly drained into a skeleton.
Krillin quickly turned to Shin. "Supreme Kai, this monster..."
But before he could finish, he saw Shin let out a nearly desperate wail. "It's over! The universe is going to be destroyed!"
"What?" Krillin was startled by Shin's exaggerated reaction, his heart skipping a beat. "The universe destroyed? Who is this guy?"
Shin took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his fear. "His name is Moro. He is a planet-eater who feeds on the life force of planets. He once rampaged through the universe, destroying countless planets and turning countless galaxies into dead zones!"
"It was the Grand Supreme Kai, ten million years ago, who paid a great price to defeat him and imprison him in the Galactic Prison."
"This monster has lived for ten million years?" Krillin was stunned.
If you live for ten million years, even a pig could become a super powerhouse.
Vegeta's eyes, however, held no fear. "Kakarot, it seems... we've finally met a worthy opponent!"
Gohan's eyes also sparkled with excitement. "He is indeed strong. Terrifyingly strong!"
As if sensing the undisguised fighting spirit of Goku and Vegeta, Moro slowly turned his head. "I heard that on this planet, there are Dragon Balls that can grant any wish? Hurry up and bring them out, let me regain my youth!"
Shin was first stunned, then suddenly realized.
Yes, although Moro was powerful, he was already old. He might not be unbeatable.
He quickly said, "Goku, Vegeta, he is not at his full strength right now. This is our chance. You must join forces to defeat him!"
Vegeta's mouth twitched slightly, 'Join forces?'
He even had the urge to summon Shenron and let Moro recover his full strength before fighting him.
But thinking of the [Cell Game] seven years ago, he forcibly restrained this urge to be 'reckless'.
"Join forces? There's no need for that!" Vegeta stepped forward. "I alone am enough. I'll use... the power of Super Saiyan 3!"
"Super Saiyan 3?" Shin was shocked again. "How many stages of transformation do you Saiyans have?"
He felt his understanding being ruthlessly refreshed again and again.
Super Saiyan 2 was already comparable to the King of the Demon Realm, and now Super Saiyan 3 was appearing?
Not only him, but even Gohan beside him looked shocked. "Uncle Vegeta, you can already transform into Super Saiyan 3? Since when?"
Vegeta glanced at him coldly. "What's so surprising about that? Your father surely became able to transform into Super Saiyan 3 long ago."
"If we couldn't reach the level of Super Saiyan 3, how could we possibly catch up with that guy, Chiaki Setsuna?"
"Chiaki Setsuna?" Shin heard the name again, and this time from Vegeta, who was clearly the stronger one, he heard the word 'catch up'.
He couldn't help but ask, "That Chiaki Setsuna, isn't he an Earthling? From what you say, his strength can compare to yours?"
Gohan nodded, a mix of reflection and admiration on his face. "Although Uncle Setsuna isn't a Saiyan and can't transform, his strength is much greater than ours."
"At least seven years ago, the power he displayed was already stronger than I am now."
"Dad and Uncle Vegeta have been training hard all these years, largely to catch up to Uncle Setsuna, I suppose."
Vegeta ignored these conversations. His fighting spirit had reached its peak.
No more words were needed. Only battle could prove everything.
"Raaah!!!"
Centered on Vegeta, a terrifying to the extreme golden pillar of energy shot into the sky.
The brilliance was so intense, it was like a new sun rising in the desert.
His hair grew wildly, instantly reaching his waist. His eyebrows disappeared, and his brow ridge bulged.
Every strand of energy around him contained the force to shatter stars.
"What a powerful aura, unbelievably powerful!" Shin, while shocked, couldn't help but inwardly complain, "If they keep transforming like this, their hair will be dragging on the ground soon, right?"
