Raditz's side.
After unleashing the Super Begone at full power, his stamina had been heavily drained, and he was already standing in place, panting for breath.
The overwhelmingly fierce aura of Super Saiyan 3 also experienced a steep drop at this moment.
Right now, it was as if his body had been hollowed out—mental energy, stamina, and energy had all been consumed to a great extent.
This was the aftereffect brought about by releasing the Super Begone without any restraint.
"Huff… huff… huff… even if you're the Legendary Super Saiyan, after taking this move of mine, I refuse to believe you're not dead!" After adjusting his condition, Raditz revealed a smile brimming with confidence.
The move he released with full power had a ten-out-of-ten chance of killing Broly.
However, even though he thought so, his sharp eyes still stared unblinkingly at the central area engulfed by the Super Begone.
Time passed slowly.
Raditz had already adjusted his condition.
Just as he believed that nothing surprising would occur, a burst of aura was suddenly sensed by him, causing his pupils to sharply contract as he assumed a combat stance, extremely vigilant.
As the smoke dispersed for the most part, Broly once again appeared in his line of sight.
At this moment, Broly's body was injured, dried blood covering him, and he had suffered a tremendous blow.
But strangely, the aura on this guy did not diminish. On the contrary, it increased, as if these injuries had been transformed into even greater power for him.
"This guy… he's actually fine? His aura… it's increased! How is that possible?!" Raditz's expression turned shocked, cold sweat sliding down his forehead as he involuntarily swallowed hard.
This aura had already surpassed his current self, and it was still skyrocketing upward at an astonishing speed.
"AAAHH—ROAR!!" At this moment, Broly was already on the verge of awakening.
Endless Legendary Super Saiyan power erupted from deep within his body, and under the reinforcement of this energy, the injuries on his body healed at a visible speed.
At this moment, his Super Saiyan form also underwent a change, as if it were transforming toward some special state.
His golden, spiky hair faintly flashed with a dark green light. The ancient Legendary Super Saiyan bloodline within him had awakened!
Raditz noticed that something was wrong.
Broly's current state looked very similar to Pseudo Super Saiyan, yet there was an essential difference.
Because Broly had already transformed into a Super Saiyan…
"Could it be… that this guy's true transformation isn't Super Saiyan at all? The current Super Saiyan form is just a transition…" Raditz cried out in disbelief.
Thinking back to earlier, Broly in just his Super Saiyan form had already possessed power extremely close to his own. If he were to transform once more, how strong would he become?
His body seemed to resonate with Broly's power. Even in his Super Saiyan 3 form, when facing this erupting power from Broly, his body instinctively could not help but tremble.
While Raditz was still in shock, he had already missed the best opportunity to strike.
Broly was in a state where he could erupt but could not fully erupt, extremely weakened.
If he had followed up with a powerful Super Begone at this time, Broly would have suffered a fatal wound and truly died.
However, in a certain sense, it wasn't that Raditz didn't want to attack.
After all, that previous Super Begone with utterly terrifying destructive power had already consumed most of his stamina.
To release another attack in a short time that was not inferior to Super Begone was impossible.
"Hmph!! I refuse to believe you can truly surpass my limit!!" Raditz's gaze changed as he regained his will.
After adjusting his condition, the blue-white lightning around his body erupted once more, golden aura surging forth as he launched himself again, charging straight toward Broly.
Broly, on the brink of awakening, neither dodged nor evaded, and didn't even pay attention to Raditz.
He simply allowed Raditz to sprint right up to him and launch an attack.
…
'Bang!!' A powerful fist containing peak destructive power swung out fiercely, slamming straight into Broly's face.
This punch landed solidly on Broly's face, yet Broly stood there like a towering mountain, completely unmoving.
"What?!" Seeing that Broly was unaffected, Raditz's expression changed drastically as a sense of foreboding arose in his heart.
Very soon, that premonition turned into reality.
Broly's lips curled upward, a grim and bloodthirsty smile appearing on his face, savage light radiating from his eyes, more terrifying than a demon.
That smile, in Raditz's eyes, became a blatant provocation.
"Don't get cocky!!" Raditz let out an unwilling roar, quickly retracting his fist and launching a full-on barrage of punches and kicks at Broly.
'Bang! Bang! Boom! Boom! …' The unstoppable flurry of strikes swept across Broly's body like a hurricane, dealing tremendous damage.
If these attacks had been endured by Broly before he awakened, he would likely have been left howling in pain, taking quite some time to recover.
Unfortunately, the current Broly, empowered by the massive eruption of legendary power, had his bodily functions greatly enhanced, and his physical strength had been tempered to an extremely terrifying level.
Raditz's fierce punches and kicks, to him now, were nothing more than a tickle.
With a heaven-defying physique capable of challenging opponents far above his level, and defense so terrifyingly strong, Raditz seemed unable to break through no matter how he attacked.
Yet Raditz didn't care at all at this moment. He continued to attack relentlessly, almost forgetting himself.
Broly finally took action. He slowly raised his left arm, like a beast's claw, radiating terrifying pressure.
'Whoosh~~!!' An attack, fast to the extreme, swung out violently.
The unstoppable blow struck Raditz squarely on the right side of his neck, bringing an irresistible impact.
'Bang!!!' A dull explosion sounded.
Raditz, having taken the hit, was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing toward a massive mountain in the distance.
'Rumble!!!!!' A thunderous explosion rang out.
In an instant, the entire mountain shattered into pieces, debris flying everywhere as smoke and dust billowed.
Amid the smoke, Raditz gritted his teeth and stood up, a trace of faint apprehension appearing in his gaze as he looked at Broly.
The gap was gradually becoming apparent.
"What a monster. Just the brute force of a casual strike is this exaggerated. If my body weren't strong enough, I really would've been killed by you," Raditz sighed, while also grasping Broly's current level of strength.
His Super Saiyan 3 was no longer even a match for this guy's single hand!
In this situation, without bringing out Super Kaio-ken, there was absolutely no way to win!
