"Kakarot, hurry up and use your full strength and fight me!"
Vegeta was clearly irritated. He was never satisfied with how Goku always held back in battle, often hiding his true strength.
"Drink!"
Hearing that, Goku powered up, releasing a massive wave of energy that shattered the rocks covering his body.
He vanished in a flash and reappeared directly in front of Vegeta.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The two launched into a fierce, rapid exchange of punches and kicks.
Goku landed a solid kick to Vegeta's face.
Vegeta gritted his teeth through the pain and retaliated with a heavy punch to Goku's abdomen.
Goku staggered backward, then raised his hands to his forehead.
Vegeta instantly recognized the pose and instinctively closed his eyes. After countless battles, he knew Kakarot's moves all too well.
But unexpectedly, Goku feinted. He didn't use Solar Flare. Instead, he teleported above Vegeta and slammed his fist downward, sending Vegeta crashing into the earth.
Boom!
A massive crater exploded in the ground as Vegeta hit.
Moments later, Vegeta rocketed into the sky, surrounded by a golden aura.
"Endless Spread!"
He unleashed a barrage of energy blasts in all directions.
"Uncle Vegeta!"
Gohan quickly teleported and shielded the nearby city from the incoming energy blasts, deflecting them all with swift movements.
Piccolo, watching from a distance, sighed and shook his head. "That Vegeta..."
Seeing this, Goku placed his hands at his waist, charging up his energy.
"Kamehameha!"
A brilliant blue wave of energy blasted from Goku's hands, speeding toward Vegeta in the sky.
Boom!
The energy wave struck Vegeta dead on, sending a shockwave across the area.
Vegeta, despite his injuries, grit his teeth and teleported behind Goku, his hands crackling with golden energy.
"Final Flash!"
Caught off guard, Goku took the full blast.
Bang!
He was launched backward at high speed, slamming through several mountains before coming to a stop.
Vegeta looked down at Goku's crumpled figure, panting and smiling. He hovered in place, bruised but satisfied.
"Gohan, get them some Senzu Beans."
Rayden stepped forward and handed two beans to Gohan from his storage ring.
"Right away, Uncle Rayden!"
Gohan rushed to Goku and Vegeta, feeding each of them a Senzu Bean.
Within seconds, their injuries vanished completely.
Nearby, Piccolo clenched his fists silently.
I thought unlocking my potential would let me keep up with them...
But I was wrong.
Their Super Saiyan forms are just too powerful.
I don't stand a chance.
I need to train harder... much harder.
Gohan landed beside Rayden.
"Uncle Rayden, can we try the second transformation now?"
"You can," Rayden replied with a small smile. "But let's wait until you master Super Saiyan 4 first."
Goku, now fully recovered, stood up with resolve in his eyes. "Rayden, I'll definitely master it quickly."
"Hmph," Vegeta scoffed. "I'll do it first, Kakarot."
Rayden ignored their rivalry and turned to Gohan. "Gohan, are you still going to school these days?"
Gohan scratched his head sheepishly. "I haven't been going, Uncle Rayden. I've got a tutor now."
"And a lot of people want to learn martial arts from me. What should I do?"
"If you're interested, go ahead and teach them," Rayden suggested. "Or ask Krillin and Yamcha if they want to open a martial arts school with you."
"Great idea! I'm going to find Uncle Krillin now!"
With that, Gohan teleported away.
After chatting for a bit, everyone went their separate ways.
Rayden gathered Broly, Cell, and Paragus, then teleported away.
---
Swish!
Rayden and his group reappeared on their island.
"Something feels off…" Broly muttered, confused.
Paragus frowned as he looked around at the unfamiliar scene—the lights, the strange decorations, the human presence.
"I've been with Kakarot and the others for months and haven't returned here. But something feels wrong… Is someone living in our house now?"
"I'll check it out," Cell said, striding forward in irritation.
Rayden, Broly, and Paragus followed closely behind.
Before they even reached the cabin, they heard laughter and loud voices coming from inside.
Cell kicked the door open.
Inside were a group of young men and women, surrounded by professional film equipment.
A middle-aged man walked up and slapped Cell's shoulder. "Hey bro, you're off duty! Why are you still in costume?"
Cell raised his hand to retaliate, but Paragus held him back.
"Who are you people? Why are you in my house?" Paragus demanded.
Everyone turned, startled by the sudden confrontation.
"You say this is your house? No one's lived here in years," one man replied defensively.
Paragus' tone grew colder. "That's none of your business."
A pudgy, big-eared man stepped forward and smirked. "My friend, if it's your house, then how much do you want for it? I'll buy it right now."
"As expected from Director Pig," one of the women cooed, her eyes twinkling.
Rayden, who had been silently observing, grew visibly annoyed.
He had already figured it out—these people had come to the island to film a Cell movie.
True, Rayden didn't technically own the island.
But he had built these houses with his own hands!
To see them trampled and used like this...
It was beyond infuriating.
"Broly, Paragus, Cell. Let's go."
"Huh? That's it?" Cell blinked, confused. That wasn't like Rayden at all.
Rayden didn't answer. Instead, he walked outside, rose into the sky, and held up his palm.
A glowing disc of energy formed in his hand.
"Cutting Disc!"
He threw it down.
The disc sliced through the island, carving it apart piece by piece.
Within minutes, the entire island was gone—nothing remained but a few wooden huts standing on narrow bits of land.
The people inside, once they stepped out, would fall straight into the ocean.
Then, Rayden created a barrier of energy, isolating the space.
"If you enjoy being here so much… then stay for a month."
Cell smirked. "There's nothing left. No food. No escape. Brilliant."
Rayden waved his hand, summoning a dimensional wall before them.
"It's fine. I'll rebuild later. For now, let's have some fun in another timeline."
He stepped forward, and Broly, Cell, and Paragus followed him into the wall.
---
As they emerged on the other side, they were immediately hit by two intense auras.
Rayden and the others looked up.
In the sky floated an enormous planet radiating power.
The energy was coming from there.
(This was the Zivl Planet, created by Baby using the Black Star Dragon Balls in the GT timeline.)
"Let's go check it out."
Rayden teleported the group to the source of the power.
Swish!
They arrived in the middle of chaos.
A massive Golden Great Ape was rampaging through a city, destroying everything in its path.
"Rayden, should I stop him?" Broly asked, narrowing his eyes. Something about the ape felt familiar.
Rayden smiled faintly and shook his head. "No need. He'll transform into Super Saiyan 4 soon."
Suddenly, a little girl ran up to the ape, shouting.
"That girl's going to die!" Paragus exclaimed. He remembered his own transformation—how uncontrollable it was.
"Grandpa, it's me—Pan!"
"Please, wake up!"
"Grandpa, look! This is a picture of you, Grandma Chi-Chi, and me!"
The little girl held up the photo, trying to reach the beast.
The ape paused and turned toward her—but then swiped violently.
Pan barely dodged, but the photo was ripped into pieces in the ape's hand.
As the ape stared at the torn image and the crying girl, something shifted inside him.
"ROAR!"
He threw his head back and roared at the sky. A torrent of energy surged from his body.
Crackling lightning struck.
His body shrank, light enveloping him.
The Great Ape transformed—into Super Saiyan 4.
"It's Kakarot," Broly said with a knowing smirk. "No wonder he felt familiar."
Cell turned to Rayden.
"You knew this was coming, didn't you?"
Rayden nodded. "This world's timeline is similar to ours. It also has Goku, Gohan, Vegeta..."
"Let's go meet him."
They flew off toward GT Goku's location.
---
"Pan, stay behind me. Someone's coming," GT Goku warned.
Pan quickly hid behind him. "Okay, Grandpa."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Rayden, Broly, Cell, and Paragus appeared before GT Goku.
GT Goku stared in disbelief.
Wasn't Cell supposed to be dead?
And the others… they all had tails?
Were they Saiyans too?
