Gas sneered, "Oh, you want to defeat me? What an outlandish dream."
He said this as he threw a punch at Gogeta.
Gogeta grinned and sidestepped to avoid the punch.
"Damn it, you are not allowed to make that expression!!!" Gas was furious.
Gogeta's confident expression reminded him of Bardock from more than fifty years ago. The old Bardock had also smiled at him like that. He wouldn't allow this to happen again.
Gogeta clenched his fists and, ignoring Gas's threats, said, "It's better to become a Super Saiyan first. It seems I can't beat him like this."
As he spoke, Gogeta's whole body shook, his energy surged, and golden Ki burst out as he transformed into a blond Super Saiyan.
Gas, enraged, attacked Gogeta again.
He stomped hard, his legs exerting force as the earth collapsed beneath him, and his body quickly launched toward Gogeta.
The muscles in Gas's arms swelled with terrifying power.
Seeing that Gogeta remained motionless, seemingly unaware of the attack, Gas felt a surge of triumph.
This fool, he thought.
He could already imagine Gogeta being struck by his fist, kneeling, convulsing, and vomiting blood.
It would be so satisfying.
Die!
Gas's fists rained down like a storm.
Boom boom boom!
The force of his punches whipped up a storm, shattering the air with crackling soundwaves.
But something was wrong.
Gas hadn't landed a single hit.
Gogeta moved nimbly, dodging every punch.
How could this be?
Absurd!
Ridiculous!
I'm the strongest warrior in the universe!
"Ahhhh!!!"
Gas roared as purple flames burst from his body, lightning crackling around him, and his Ki grew even stronger.
However, he hadn't noticed the subtle signs of aging creeping across his face.
The power he wielded was obtained by squeezing his lifespan.
By forcibly removing his limitations and releasing the seal, he had accelerated the burning of his life, hastening his physical aging.
Gas originally had two years to live, but now no one could be sure.
"Die, die, die!" Gas attacked again, even more violently than before.
Gogeta dodged.
Bang bang bang!
Gas thought he had finally landed a blow.
Gogeta was hit several times, his body thrown backward.
The spectators were even more anxious than Gas.
"He... he was tricked?"
"Stop fooling around, Gogeta! Become Super Saiyan Blue already. You can't beat him like this!"
"Saiyans must have something wrong with their brains. Even in fusion, they have this flaw."
"Hahahaha!" Gas laughed as he rushed toward the place where Gogeta had fallen, eager to pursue his victory.
Suddenly—
Boom!
A blue light erupted in front of him, expanding rapidly and shooting straight into the sky.
Gogeta emerged from the flames.
His whole body was now enveloped in blue Ki, his hair and eyebrows turned dark blue, and his power had reached a new level.
Gas glanced at Gogeta in shock, then sneered, "So what if you turn blue? Even if you turn silver or purple, you'll still end up in failure and die!"
Gas's body transformed into purple lightning, and his powerful fist struck out again.
Boom!
The fist connected with Gogeta's muscular abdomen.
The air exploded, sending waves of Ki rippling outward in all directions.
But Gas's sneer froze.
Something was wrong—it felt like his fist had hit an immovable piece of metal.
He hadn't made a dent.
No movement at all!
"You..." Gas raised his head in shock, only to be met with Gogeta's ever-confident expression.
"Thanks for the massage. Would you mind doing my shoulders next?" Gogeta pointed to his shoulder, grinning playfully.
Look, looking down on me?
Gas's teeth clenched so tightly they almost shattered, and his Ki surged violently.
"Damn it! Damn monkey!!!"
Gas took a deep breath, his arms swelling even further as he threw punch after punch at Gogeta.
Bang bang!
Another wave of violent energy exploded outward.
The strong wind generated by the force almost knocked the spectators off their feet.
But Gogeta remained completely unmoved!
Only his blue belt swayed slightly in the gust.
"Hey, I asked for a shoulder massage. Why do you keep hitting my stomach?" Gogeta teased.
"Y-you... damn it!!!"
Gas gritted his teeth and unleashed a barrage of punches at Gogeta, hitting from all directions—whether abdomen, shoulders, or elsewhere.
Bang bang bang bang!
Fists like a violent storm transformed into dense shadows, instantly enveloping Gogeta.
Every blow, capable of leveling the Earth, landed on Gogeta.
But nothing happened.
Gogeta stood as if rooted to the ground.
The attacks had no effect at all.
The spectators were stunned.
It was hard to believe.
"He's so strong... terrifyingly powerful."
"Goku was right—he's an incredible warrior."
Broly, who had crawled out of the rubble, was equally shocked.
He had watched Goku and Vegeta fuse and understood the power of Gas firsthand.
He had been fighting Gas for a long time, knowing just how terrifyingly strong Gas was.
And now, Gogeta was standing firm while Gas's attacks had no effect. Could Broly not be shocked?
After that ferocious assault, Gas stopped, staring blankly at Gogeta, his mind flooded with questions.
What is the strongest warrior in the universe?
At that moment, Gas saw Gogeta smile again—the same confident smile.
Gas's rage reignited.
He clenched his fists, his anger boiling.
Gogeta grinned, "Are you tired of massaging me? Now it's my turn."
Gas froze!
A chilling sensation rose from his feet and swept through his entire body in an instant. His forehead grew cold, and his mind buzzed.
Gogeta's fist enlarged in Gas's vision...
Then, Gogeta's left hand grasped his hair tightly.
With his right fist, he struck Gas's abdomen hard, faster than the speed of light.
Boom!
Gas's body was flung into the air by the punch.
But since Gogeta still held his hair, he bounced back like a yo-yo.
Bang bang!
Two more punches!
Puft! Gas's face turned red as he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He felt his internal organs shift inside him, almost displaced by the blows.
