"Haa!! Aaaaaaahhhh!!"
Broly roared, his mouth opening wide as an enormous surge of green energy gathered within, forming a terrifying column-shaped energy wave that blasted towards Rigor.
Seeing this—
Rigor didn't even blink. A silver-white energy condensed in his hand, a shockwave containing world-shaking, terrifying power.
Without hesitation, Rigor thrust his hand forward.
———— BOOOOOM!!!
The two energy waves collided fiercely!
In an instant, the green and silver energies clashed at their center point, erupting into a massive shockwave that spread rapidly in all directions.
The entire God of Destruction Realm was swept clean...
All nearby planets trembled violently before exploding one after another...
Beerus' face turned dark.
"My home...!!"
Goku and Vegeta braced themselves with grave expressions, struggling against the overwhelming shockwave.
In the sky, Broly's energy output was like an endless flood, as if he wanted to obliterate everything.
But Rigor let out a cold laugh and unleashed 30% of his power...
In the next moment—
The silver-white column of energy, with unstoppable force, instantly shattered and swallowed Broly's mouth blast!
———— BOOOOOM!!!
The energy wave struck Broly head-on, and a deafening explosion resounded through the heavens. Thick smoke spread across the battlefield...
Rigor stared into the smoke.
Was it over?
But in the next second, suddenly, a roaring figure burst out of the smoke, surrounded by raging green ki, charging straight at Rigor!
Rigor's expression shifted slightly, his eyes narrowing.
This guy... he's the craziest I've seen today...
Without Super Saiyan Five, he probably wouldn't have made it this far.
Rigor's gaze grew cold.
"It's time to end this..."
He hadn't forgotten his purpose. He'd almost gotten lost in the fight with Broly.
Rigor's figure shot forward, directly colliding with Broly's furious charge.
———— BANG!!!
A deep impact echoed across the sky as Rigor's fist slammed into Broly's stomach, burying deep into his abdomen.
He hadn't held back in the slightest. Broly's pupils shrank, his mind nearly blanking from the blow!
———— BANG! BANG! BANG!
Rigor unleashed several more heavy strikes, each punch raining down like a storm, slamming into Broly's powerful body.
Broly's face twisted with pain, his mind wavering.
Even in this form, nearly immune to pain, being utterly crushed by pure strength... who wouldn't feel it?
"Big Bang Attack!!!"
As he finished his combo, Rigor clasped his hands together, shouting loudly.
———— BOOOOOM!!!
In an instant, a vast silver-white energy gathered between his palms before blasting directly at Broly!
The energy wave struck Broly, engulfing him completely...
In that moment, Broly's pupils constricted, his consciousness returning.
Aishi spoke softly.
"It's over..."
Just as his words fell—
A battered figure fell from the sky, crashing hard into the ground, unconscious.
Broly lay there, eyes closed, his ki weak, his body covered in injuries...
"Broly!!"
Goku shouted, flying over immediately.
Vegeta followed quickly behind.
In place—
Beerus let out a slow breath.
"It's finally over..."
Whis looked at Beerus and smiled.
"Beerus-sama, I will restore the God of Destruction Realm now."
He raised his staff, waving it in a circle before gently tapping the ground.
———— DONG DONG!
A mysterious energy flowed from his staff...
In the next moment, the ravaged land began to restore itself, returning to its pristine state as if nothing had ever happened.
Seeing this, Beerus' expression finally softened slightly.
Beerus spoke calmly.
"Rigor's power is impressive... at this rate, in a few months, he'll reach the God of Destruction tier."
God of Destruction tier!
Aishi chuckled softly. He naturally understood what Beerus meant by that.
That was the realm of gods.
Once one entered that realm, they were on par with the Gods of Destruction.
Because all Gods of Destruction existed at that level.
Aishi nodded.
"But it won't be easy. He'll need to increase his base battle power by tenfold, maybe even a hundredfold."
In the sky—
Rigor wore a wild, ecstatic expression. The feeling of crushing everything before him was simply too satisfying.
He looked down at Goku and the others, about to speak—
When he suddenly sensed something, his head whipping around to look in a direction.
When he saw the figure clearly, Rigor's pupils shrank.
Aishi?!
What was he doing here?
Rigor's expression turned ugly. The joy he felt moments ago instantly vanished.
Damn it... with him here, how am I supposed to take revenge?
Aishi also noticed Rigor staring at him.
He raised his head and smiled faintly.
"Yo. We meet again."
Rigor nodded, his face clouded with conflicting emotions. After a moment of silence, he slowly descended to the ground.
Goku, Vegeta, and Broly braced themselves, staring at Rigor with tense expressions.
Rigor's gaze was complicated as he looked at Vegeta.
"This time, with Beerus and Aishi here, I won't kill you."
Hearing that, Vegeta's face turned dark with anger.
"What...?"
Did he mean he was only alive because of others' protection?
Vegeta's eyes locked onto Rigor, his expression ugly.
"If you want to kill me, then come. I don't need anyone's mercy to survive!"
Goku and Broly glanced at Vegeta with concern.
Rigor ignored him, speaking calmly.
"Last time, I lost to Aishi... but he didn't kill me. So this time, I'll give you the same chance."
He looked at Vegeta one last time.
"Next time, if you survive against me, our debt will be settled."
With that, Rigor glanced at Beerus and Aishi in the distance before his figure slowly vanished.
Instant Transmission!
In place—
The three finally let out a sigh of relief.
Goku spoke with confusion.
"He said... he lost to Aishi before?!"
Broly nodded.
"Yeah."
Vegeta said nothing, his expression dark.
Once again... I'm only alive because of others...
The meaning was obvious – the other guy spared him because of Aishi.
Vegeta's eyes burned with fury as he spoke in a low voice.
"Next time... I will surpass you!!!"
Elsewhere—
Whis smiled.
"He's gone."
Beerus crossed his arms, snorting coldly.
"Who knew he had a grudge with Vegeta. Staying here would only cause trouble."
Aishi chuckled.
"He'll be back."
With him standing here as a towering mountain, Rigor would definitely return.
As a Saiyan, that pride was unbreakable.
