Dragon Ball: Being able to revive means you're courting death? How naive!

Chapter 228 Sun Wukong's Strength

In the distance, Shang Yun and the other three looked at the huge cloud of smoke that shot straight into the sky like a mushroom, their hearts filled with worry.

Son Gohan, his face full of worry, murmured, "Dad..."

Before the words were even finished, Shang Yun suddenly darted out. It turned out that an energy wave from Frieza had been deflected towards them. Without a second thought, Shang Yun grabbed Gohan and dodged to the side. At the same time, Piccolo and Krillin reacted quickly, leaping to either side. The energy blast rolled across the ground, leaving a deep, alarming trail in its wake, before crashing into a distant mountain peak.

"boom!"

A deafening roar erupted, and the mountain peak instantly shattered, sending debris flying everywhere.

Bick was utterly shocked and blurted out, "Wow, that's amazing!"

Klin gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Damn it, how can this guy be so strong!"

……

Frieza, a confident smile playing on his lips, stood leisurely amidst the billowing dust, quietly awaiting the witnessing of his "masterpiece."

However, an unexpected turn of events occurred. Just as Frieza was filled with anticipation, Goku appeared behind him like a ghost, and the two stood back to back. As the billowing smoke gradually dissipated, Frieza instinctively looked down and was horrified to realize that the island had been blasted to pieces by his fierce attack, leaving only a solitary stone pillar standing abruptly on the sea.

Recalling his recent close-quarters battle with Goku, Frieza was filled with shock and disbelief. Despite his relentless attacks, he hadn't been able to defeat his opponent. He thought to himself, "This...is this the true power of a Saiyan? I've encountered too many overconfident individuals before, and without exception, they all ended up dying at my hands." But the Goku before him seemed to shatter his previous understanding, making him truly feel a threat he had never experienced before.

The lone stone pillar could no longer bear the weight of the two of them. Starting from the bottom, the stones began to crack and slowly collapse. Goku and Frieza began to fall as well.

As he plummeted, Goku swiftly spun around and unleashed a powerful punch at Frieza. The punch whistled through the air, carrying an unstoppable momentum. However, his fist missed its mark, and upon closer inspection, Frieza had vanished. Goku's heart tightened, and he quickly scanned his surroundings in mid-air, his eyes blazing as he tried to track Frieza's movements, while simultaneously descending slowly.

Soon, Sun Wukong landed on a small island. His eyes were like an eagle's, warily searching left and right for Frieza's figure.

"There!" Sun Wukong shouted, unleashing an energy blast towards the mountain peak on his left without hesitation. The energy blast, carrying immense power, struck the mountain instantly. With a deafening roar, the mountain shattered, sending rocks flying. Frieza's figure indeed appeared within the shattered fragments.

However, before Goku could make any further moves, Frieza's figure vanished again like a phantom. Goku dared not relax his vigilance, remaining fully alert, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily, leaving no corner unchecked, continuing his search for Frieza's figure.

Suddenly, without warning, Sun Wukong leaped backward with swift and decisive movements. It turned out that the mountain peak he had just shattered was experiencing uneven stress, causing rocks to continue to crumble and triggering a massive landslide. The falling rocks collided and rubbed against each other, producing a crackling sound and raising clouds of dust.

……

On King Kai's planet, King Kai, watching closely the battle between Goku and Frieza on Namek, couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow! This is incredible!"

Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Gyoza, who were behind him, noticed King Kai's unusual reaction and quickly went up to ask him about it.

Yamcha, looking anxious, spoke first: "What's wrong, Lord Kai?"

"Lord Kai, what happened on Namek?"

"How is Wukong?"

King Kai nodded and said, "This battle is going to be interesting."

Tianjin Rice and Tea exchanged a glance and followed up with, "Could it be...?"

King Kai nodded slightly, his expression full of amazement, and slowly said, "The Saiyan race is truly extraordinary! No, to be more precise, it's Goku who's amazing. His power seems limitless. The strength he's displaying now is worlds apart from when he trained with me; he's like a completely different person!"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this. Yamcha's eyes widened, and he blurted out, "How could this be?"

……

Bulma plunged into the lake, gulping down the water. Then she lifted her head, exclaiming with delight, "It's so delicious!" Immediately afterward, she turned and lay down on the ground, letting out a long sigh and muttering, "I'm exhausted... It seems I'm really going to die here. No one's coming to save me. No wonder people say beautiful women have short lives..." Before she could finish speaking, Bulma slowly closed her eyes.

Suddenly, she felt a cool sensation on her face. She opened her eyes abruptly and saw a toad perched on her face. Bulma sat bolt upright, and the toad landed on the back of her hand. Looking down, Bulma was stunned. She saw hundreds of toads swarming around her. She froze for several seconds, then roared furiously, "Ugh! I'm so angry! I don't want to die with all of you toads!" With that, she stood up and kicked the nearest toad into the lake.

……

In the sky, Frieza's eyes sharpened. He raised his hand and unleashed an energy blast, like a burning meteor, hurtling towards Goku. Sensing the danger, Goku swiftly turned, his gaze fixed on the oncoming energy blast. Unexpectedly, he didn't dodge. Instead, he took a deep breath, lowered his aura, and firmly planted himself in a horse stance, raising his hands high in an attempt to block the powerful energy blast with his own strength.

A powerful surge of energy crashed down upon him, and Sun Wukong felt an overwhelming force bearing down on him. His feet carved two shockingly deep gashes into the ground as the energy blast propelled him backward until he slammed into the rocks behind him. The impact of the energy blast continued, gradually cracking the hard rock, creating a long, deep fissure. Sun Wukong gritted his teeth, raised his hands high, and deflected the energy blast into the air, letting out a muffled groan: "Ouch, that's hot! That's hot!"

Frieza, hovering in the sky, witnessed Goku's actions and sneered, "Good kid, watch my power." With that, he performed a nimble somersault in the air, his eyes instantly lighting up as he shot out two sharp laser beams straight at Goku.

Sun Wukong reacted extremely quickly, leaping backward as the two laser beams grazed the hem of his clothes, narrowly dodging them.

After landing, Sun Wukong looked at the two deep craters burned by the laser at his feet, and then looked up at Frieza with a solemn expression.

However, at that moment, without any warning, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently.
