Planet Kurish.
After a long while, Talot finally adapted to the power of the Golden Great Ape. The feeling of being able to destroy countless planets with a mere gesture made him utterly intoxicated.
With the current power level of the Golden Great Ape form, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him invincible in this era.
[Next… is Super Saiyan 4!!!]
With his mind steady, the Golden Great Ape Talot wore a serious expression, preparing to complete the final breakthrough.
From transforming into a Great Ape to becoming a Golden Great Ape, Talot had some initial thoughts and realizations.
But as for breaking through from Golden Great Ape to Super Saiyan 4, he truly had no clue.
Just as Goku in the original work's GT timeline maintained his rationality after grasping Golden Great Ape's form and directly broke through, Talot also decided to let it happen naturally.
Previously he had no clear idea about the Super Saiyan 4 transformation, but now that he had entered the Golden Great Ape form, the beast's instincts pointed him in the right direction.
Following the guidance of his instincts, he detonated the final shackle within his body. His power retracted and condensed, eventually returning to its purest form. From the Golden Great Ape form, he stepped into Super Saiyan 4!
Suppressing his excitement, Talot carefully felt the energy within his body, an energy capable of annihilating everything. As calm as a sea's surface, yet once it erupted, it would stir up unimaginably massive waves.
Following his instincts, Talot manipulated the energy to expand outward from within, spreading throughout his entire body and then rapidly pulling back in.
The golden light became increasingly dense and blinding, as if it had taken on a tangible form and completely enveloped Talot.
Talot's bloodline was being sublimated, his potential unleashed, and his power skyrocketed to the extreme.
Directly above Talot, dark clouds suddenly gathered, and countless bolts of golden lightning exploded in the void. Like a heavenly tribulation, terrifying and awe-inspiring.
After the golden light condensed to the limit, it suddenly burst forth, piercing the sky. A heavy and oppressive aura expanded, enveloping the entire Planet Kurish.
On North Kai's Planet, North Kai focused all his attention, silently observing this scene.
When the golden pillar of light finally dissipated, Talot's Golden Great Ape form also vanished along with it. Thick smoke billowed in all directions, with icy shards and dust flying across the sky.
At the very center of the thick smoke, a tall and muscular humanoid figure began to faintly emerge. As the smoke cleared, Talot appeared in a completely new form.
He had returned to a humanoid shape, his body terrifyingly muscular, covered in blood-red fur, with jet-black long hair extending down to his waist, and two crimson markings at the corners of his eyes. In his black-and-blue dual-colored pupils shone a unique and profound aura…..as if one glance could shatter another's spirit.
Just standing there, the invisible pressure he exuded was enough to overwhelm others with fear.
This was the Super Saiyan 4 transformation. The result of the Saiyan bloodline undergoing a second ascension!
"Finally succeeded… Super Saiyan 4!!" The corners of Talot's mouth lifted slightly. He let out a sinister smile, looking just like a supervillain of the worst kind.
The appearance of Super Saiyan 4 gave off the impression of a completely humanoid beast, radiating a wild aura.
Taking a deep breath, Talot sensed the power within himself. Every cell in his body was fully activated, supplying him with an endless stream of Saiyan energy.
Talot could feel it. His current strength was terrifying.
After the ascension of his bloodline, his base power level had truly broken through to 10 million. As for his power level in Super Saiyan 4, even he didn't know the exact figure. But without exaggeration, it had definitely far surpassed ten billion, perhaps even tens of billions, or possibly even into hundred billion.
And that was just his surface power level. If he went all out, Talot was confident he could push that number even higher!
"This feeling of power flooding my entire body… it's indescribably amazing. I finally understand why Goku in the GT timeline said he wouldn't stop until the enemy was defeated after transforming into Super Saiyan 4. This form brings out the Saiyan's natural thirst for battle to the fullest. I want to find a powerful opponent and fight to my heart's content." Talot clenched his fists tightly, lowering his head to look at his hands, his unrestrained smile carrying an even more intimidating aura.
A power level exceeding tens of billions or even into hundred billion. In this era where the God of Destruction is asleep and Majin Buu is still sealed, it was absolutely invincible.
Even if facing Majin Buu, Talot was confident he could fight him head-on!
He could truly be called the undisputed number one in the universe of this era!
Just then, Talot's expression changed slightly. He seemed to sense something and turned his gaze toward the distant sky. More precisely, he looked toward a higher-dimensional world.
In that place… it felt as though a gaze was fixed on him!
And the one watching him was using a technique similar to North Kai's.
But it wasn't another Kai!
….
Above the universe, in the higher-dimensional world that governs all existence. This place, known as the Sacred World of the Kai, was the supreme realm of the gods. The highest authority in the current universe, the East Supreme Kai, resided here.
At this moment, the East Supreme Kai wore a face full of shock, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead.
"Did he notice me?! What incredible perception… Is this really a Saiyan?!" East Supreme Kai was in utter disbelief. He had originally been casually observing the mortal world on a whim, but was suddenly drawn by a powerful energy fluctuation. Tracing it to its source, he had discovered Talot mid-breakthrough.
For such a powerful being to be born in the mortal world, and for that being to be a Saiyan, this was beyond his expectations. Especially when Talot's spirit energy reached out toward him. It had genuinely startled him.
To sense someone watching him across dimensions… while this strength wasn't quite on the level of Majin Buu, it was still extremely formidable.
[I need to keep a close eye on this mortal from now on. I might need his help in the future.] East Supreme Kai silently etched Talot's name into memory.
At this moment, he didn't yet realize that it was his proactive probing that gave Talot an opportunity to travel along this spiritual line.
...
At the same time.
Galactic Patrol's Headquarters.
Inside the office of Special Elite Officer Merus of the Galactic Patrol.
While working on his current tasks, Merus suddenly sensed an immensely terrifying power. His gaze involuntarily turned toward the distance.
"This power… It seems another powerful being has been born in the universe." Merus furrowed his brow slightly, drawn in by the power.
He didn't know who it came from, but his instincts as a Trainee Angel told him, it was something worth investigating.
…..
Returning back to Planet Kurish.
Super Saiyan 4 Talot looked solemn as he stared at the sky for a long while without speaking.
With his current strength, he could use Instant Transmission to investigate immediately.
[This unique sensation… it can't be an Angel. If it were, they wouldn't have made such a slip! So… it must be a Supreme Kai!] Talot thought silently to himself.
The commotion caused by his breakthrough into Super Saiyan 4 was simply too great. It had already drawn the attention of higher beings.
