The scene shifts.
The center of the lake.
Talot and Future Vegeta levitate above the lake, scrutinizing each other. The powerful auras they unconsciously exude cause ripples to spread across the water below.
Talot gathers his strength, slowly increasing his ki.
Future Vegeta is similarly enveloped in a white aura, his immense ki transforming into an invisible pressure that bears down on Talot.
Such a powerful aura, judging by its intensity alone, reaches the Seventh Dimension Gai unit.
To possess such a powerful Battle Power in Base Form, what level would his strength reach after transforming? It's unimaginable.
Is this the strength of a Time Patroller? Just his aura has reached this level, even more impressive than I thought. Talot has a rough estimate of Future Vegeta's strength in his mind.
This strength, without exaggeration, is enough to rival Son Goku and Vegeta from the later stages of Dragon Ball Super, during the Tournament of Power.
Only with such a strong companion is one qualified to walk in the Dark Demon Realm.
'Rumble~~!!' Future Vegeta unleashes all of his ki in Base Form without holding back.
His violent aura shoots towards the sky like a tornado, and the immense pressure of his ki assaults Talot, attempting to put pressure on him mentally.
Although this little trick won't defeat Talot, as long as it affects his mind, he can gain an absolute advantage in the upcoming fight.
Unfortunately, he doesn't know that this little trick is completely ineffective against Talot.
Talot releases his God Power unconsciously and uses the ultimate Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power to reinforce it, also reaching the Seventh Dimension, easily dissolving the aura released by Future Vegeta.
"God Power, and a strange power..." Future Vegeta's eyes become sharper after sensing the invisible power released by Talot.
But soon, Future Vegeta smiles. This is the first time he's fought a Saiyan with God Power and a special power.
His eyes ignite with fighting spirit, and in a flash, he takes the initiative, bursting out with super speed and diving straight towards Talot.
Seeing this, a glint flashes in Talot's eyes. Invisible God Power gathers on his right fist, his fingers clench tightly, and he swings his arm out! A loud *"BOOM!!!!"* echoes.
The first round of the contest between the two begins.
The power generated by the collision of their fists shakes the surroundings, causing the entire lake surface to explode with water.
Talot and Future Vegeta maintain their punching stances, feeling the weight transmitted from each other's fists. They exchange glances, gaining a rough understanding of each other's strength.
Talot feels how thick the bloodline power within Future Vegeta is, and roughly guesses what path he has taken.
If he's not mistaken, this Future Vegeta has mastered the Super Saiyan Fourth Grade transformation, and his proficiency is quite high, perhaps no less than his own.
On the other hand, Future Vegeta's emotions are stirred after feeling the God Power released by Talot in battle. The battle-loving genes that have been dormant in his body for many years are awakened.
Although as a Time Patroller, he has to go to other timelines to carry out missions and correct history from time to time, the guys he deals with are all useless trash that can be wiped out with a single energy wave, unable to let him experience the joy of battle.
But now it's different!
*"Bang!!!"* The two once again swing their heavy fists to attack each other.
Immediately afterward, the two engage in a series of fierce hand-to-hand combat, a battle of fists and flesh begins.
Talot spares no effort in displaying his fighting style, combining attack and defense, speed and power, switching between offense and defense, making it virtually flawless.
Future Vegeta also shows no weakness, displaying his own fighting style, the ultimate version of the Prince Fighting Style.
Different from the fighting style displayed by Vegeta in Talot's era, this Future Vegeta's Prince Fighting Style is more fierce and deadly.
There are almost no unnecessary movements, every move is fatal, and every attack is aimed at Talot's weaknesses. Even someone as strong as Talot feels a lot of pressure when fighting him.
*"Bang! Boom!! Bang! Boom!! Bang! Boom!!..."* A series of thrilling roars sound.
Looking around, the surface of the lake has undergone terrifying deformation.
Talot and Future Vegeta fight evasively, their positions constantly changing, colliding back and forth, traversing and competing. In just a few seconds, the two have exchanged hundreds of moves.
This scene is watched by God of Destruction Beerus and Angel Whis.
Future Vegeta's strength is really strong. Being able to fight Talot to this extent is enough to show how strong his foundation is.
Once these Saiyans grow up, each one is more monstrous than the last.
Now it depends on what level of strength this Future Vegeta can reach with his transformations.
From the current perspective, it's impossible to tell who's superior.
Chronoa, standing to the side, was naturally observing the battle. She was genuinely surprised that Talot could contend with Future Vegeta head-on.
Recalling when she first met Talot a year ago, his strength was far weaker than it was now, not even on the same level.
But now, Talot's power was so great that he could already go toe-to-toe with Future Vegeta.
And Chronoa had a feeling that Talot's strength was far from its limit. After transforming, he might even match Future Vegeta's ultimate power.
'Speaking of which, should I recruit this Talot? With his strength, he's already qualified to enforce the laws of parallel timelines,' Chronoa thought to herself.
...
Above the lake.
The fierce battle between Talot and Future Vegeta intensified. They exchanged blows, gaining a certain understanding of each other's moves and fighting styles.
Future Vegeta, caught up in the heat of battle, couldn't care less about anything else.
Driven by his fighting spirit, he was determined to decide who was superior.
"Haaah!!" With a roar, golden lightning crackled around Future Vegeta, instantly completing the Super Saiyan First Stage Full Power transformation. His strength exploded, reaching the mid-stage of the Seventh Dimension Gai. Power coalesced, and he unleashed a powerful punch with unstoppable force.
Seeing this, Talot instantly activated the Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power within him, completing the Super Saiyan First Stage Full Power transformation, enhanced by God Power, unleashing a powerful strike.
Boom!!! The space trembled, and boundless lightning exploded.
The moment their fists collided, both were hit by the backlash of power.
Talot staggered back a few meters.
Future Vegeta also retreated a few meters.
With the enhancement of God Power and Great Ape Legendary Super Saiyan Power, Talot's strength had increased by more than just a little.
"How does it feel, Vegeta?" Talot asked with a smile, watching Future Vegeta not far away, teasing him.
Future Vegeta, however, looked down at his faintly aching fist. Although it was only for a moment, he had felt the terrifying brute force Talot unleashed after transforming into a Super Saiyan.
The mysteries of God Power were far greater than he had imagined.
"Interesting. Within the God Power, there seems to be a strange force that greatly enhances your strength," Future Vegeta said, not angry but amused, a smile on his lips, a glint in his eyes.
Crackle crackle~~!! Amazing blue arcs of electricity flashed around his body, and his aura exploded. His golden, upright hair transformed into golden, upright, furious hair, making him look even colder and more ruthless.
This form was the peak state of Super Saiyan Second Grade! "Super Saiyan Second Grade, huh? That's not exclusive to you." With that, Talot decisively unleashed the deeper power of his bloodline.
At his will, the S-Cells within him pulsed. In the blink of an eye, he completed the Super Saiyan Second Grade transformation, the whole process seamless, without the slightest energy leakage.
Compared to Future Vegeta's transformation, his was no worse.
In fact, because he had cultivated God Power, Talot had better control over his power than Future Vegeta.
Future Vegeta, filled with fighting spirit, raised his right hand, a blue halo flashing in his palm, a deadly attack taking shape.
"Big Bang Attack!!!" He declared, and the blue energy ball brewing in Future Vegeta's palm shot out, heading straight for Talot.
"Spiral Bombardment!!!" Talot, not to be outdone, condensed a spiral golden energy bullet, shooting it from his palm, colliding head-on with Vegeta's Big Bang Attack.
Crackling~~!!
The moment the two energy balls collided, the surrounding space was enveloped in countless arcs of electricity.
Talot's Spiral Energy Bullet completely devoured Future Vegeta's Big Bang Attack, using its special properties to directly turn it into nothingness.
"What?!" Future Vegeta exclaimed in disbelief.
This scene truly subverted his understanding of energy techniques. It turned out that the energy attacks they used, besides destruction, had other uses.
"This is just the beginning, Vegeta," Talot said with a slight smile, opening his arms, energy pulsing around him, and invisible Godly Power enhancing his body.
Around his body, the space rippled, and golden energy bullets floated around, then were shaped by God Power into slender energy swords.
These attacks, containing God Power, were far more destructive than any powerhouse of the same level could block.
Future Vegeta clearly felt the threat of this move as well. He raised an eyebrow, focusing his attention, and became even more curious about this Saiyan named Talot.
"God Sword - Division!" Talot launched his attack at that moment.
Under his mental control, all the surrounding energy blades containing God Power split apart, transforming into thousands upon thousands of small energy blades, heading straight for Vegeta.
"This kind of trick is useless against this Prince!" Future Vegeta shouted, pressing his hands together and pushing forward.
In an instant, violent energy erupted from his palms like a torrent, blasting directly into the small energy blades in front of him.
'Rumble~~!!' Explosive flames soared into the sky.
Future Vegeta's attack seemed to have annihilated all these small energy blades, but that wasn't the case.
Hundreds of energy blades still pierced through the thick smoke, heading straight for him.
"What?!" Future Vegeta, seeing this, felt a sense of impending doom. These hundreds of energy blades were already close, and he could only rely on the instincts honed from years of battle to dodge.
But the speed of these hundreds of energy blades was extremely fast, and there were always a few that he couldn't avoid.
Pfft~! Pfft~!" The sound of flesh tearing rang out.
Two slender energy blades left wounds on Future Vegeta's chest and back, respectively.
Bright red blood flowed from the wounds, and the pain caused Future Vegeta's expression to change drastically, with dense blood vessels appearing in his eyes.
Beerus and Whis, upon seeing Vegeta injured, showed surprised expressions, it seemed they had overestimated this Future Vegeta...
Chronoa, on the other hand, thought to herself that this was terrible. After seeing Future Vegeta injured, she had a bad feeling.
Although Future Vegeta's personality had become very calm, it didn't mean he was easy to deal with.
If he really got angry, it would be unstoppable.
If Future Vegeta and Talot fought to the death before the operation, the plan would fail.
As the energy blades dissipated, Talot casually watched Future Vegeta's condition and reminded him, "The boring warm-up is over. There's no point in continuing like this. Show me your true power, let's make this quick. After all, we still need to go to the Dark Demon Realm to help me rescue someone, don't you think?"
Hearing Talot's urging, Future Vegeta laughed instead of getting angry.
"Interesting, it's been a long, long time since I've been injured. You're much more interesting than I thought." Future Vegeta didn't care about these minor injuries. "You're right, we really need to settle this quickly."
Because of these injuries, the Saiyan blood within Future Vegeta's body was completely stirred up and agitated.
He had played around enough, it was time to show his true skills and fight.
"Haaaaaa!!!" Future Vegeta roared hysterically.
This roar, like the angry cry of a Great Ape, was infinitely powerful, terrifying and frightening.
This time, Future Vegeta directly showed his true power.
The Great Ape Power fully erupted, golden aura soared into the sky, and violent energy shook all directions, stirring the lake.
At the moment when this incredibly astonishing aura erupted, Beerus and Whis, who were watching the battle from the outside, also heightened their attention.
This Vegeta's transformation seemed to be a little different from what they had imagined.
When the light dissipated, Future Vegeta's appearance changed drastically. At this moment, he was no longer in the Super Saiyan Second Grade form, but a Super Saiyan Great Ape that combined power and wildness! That is, Super Saiyan Fourth Grade!
