GT Timeline, Sacred World of the Kai
"Final Flash!"
Up above, Vegeta floated high in the sky, both hands brought together as a terrifying mass of energy gathered between his palms.
"Kamehameha!"
Gohan planted his feet firmly on the ground, drawing power up from the earth itself.
Boom. Crack.
Two energy waves collided in midair, the shockwave rippling out in all directions. Everyone watching had their hair blasted back in an instant.
"Haa… haa… You, Son Gohan, are way stronger than that one. Good. Good. Now that is a real Saiyan. Hahaha!"
Vegeta gasped for breath, but his face was full of satisfaction. He was genuinely pleased with this Gohan's performance.
GT Gohan's expression darkened for a second at those words, then his gaze slowly hardened with resolve.
"I just realized the truth a little earlier than he did, that's all."
Main timeline Gohan spoke as if it was nothing, completely calm.
"Alright, alright, Vegeta, my turn already."
Kid Goku had been waiting impatiently for a while.
"Tch. You go."
It was only a sparring match, not a life and death struggle. Vegeta had just unleashed his full power without holding anything back. Compared to Gohan, whose aura was still steady and unruffled, he was clearly in a worse state, his breathing ragged.
Vegeta knew this as well, so he did not stubbornly demand another round.
"Hehe, Gohan, if you are only going to rely on Super Saiyan 2, you definitely will not be able to beat me."
Goku grinned at him.
"Heh, whatever you have, I have. Whatever you do not have, I also have."
"Is that so? Yaaah!"
Goku transformed first, directly ascending into Super Saiyan 3.
Even without a tail, the original Goku had already mastered Super Saiyan 3 to a very high degree.
But after the Black Star Dragon Balls turned him into a child again, that form became unstable in his smaller body, and the boost in power was reduced.
With Elder Kai's help regrowing his tail, he could once again use Super Saiyan 3 perfectly.
A base battle power of one hundred billion, multiplied by four hundred. His power jumped straight to forty trillion.
The scene was not like the main timeline, where the shockwaves would shake the entire planet, but Gohan could feel it clearly. Goku's ki was extremely violent.
At that moment, Gohan once again noticed something off about this world.
Logically speaking, with such a wild aura, in his original universe the entire planet would probably be trembling.
Yet the spatial layers of this GT timeline were abnormally stable, even tougher than the main timeline.
No matter how violent the aura became, it simply could not shake this space.
Now this is interesting. I thought this was a weaker offshoot of the main universe, but it is actually this strong. The dimensional level of this timeline is not simple at all. Yaaah…
Gohan thought for a few seconds, then instantly transformed into his Dark Gold Super Saiyan 3.
After fighting GT Vegeta, Gohan's base power had risen sharply again, climbing to seventy billion.
His Dark Gold Super Saiyan 3 had an eight hundred fold multiplier. His power surged straight to fifty six trillion, instantly surpassing kid Goku.
"Even stronger than just now."
Vegeta's pupils shrank.
"You can go Super Saiyan 3 too? And that dark gold aura of yours looks way stronger than my pure gold ki."
Goku stared at him in shock.
"Due to a certain opportunity, my Super Saiyan line changed. Every stage of my transformation is now double what it used to be."
Gohan did not bother to hide it.
"Perfect. I was worried your power would not be enough. Now this is getting interesting. So, can you become Super Saiyan 4 as well?"
Goku asked directly.
Gohan nodded.
"I can."
"Then let us skip straight to full power. Yaaah!"
Goku roared. After a long string of "aaah-aaah" shouts, golden light filled the field. Red fur, black hair, a wild divine pressure.
Goku completed his Super Saiyan 4 transformation. His aura spiked to another level.
"I wonder… in this world, how long I can hold Super Saiyan 4. Haaaaaaa!"
Even in Super Saiyan 3, Gohan's aura had been remarkably steady. Yet the moment Super Saiyan 4 appeared, his ki grew wild as well, and the eerie qi in his tail went berserk.
His appearance shifted subtly compared to how he looked in the main timeline. It was as if the heavy burden he felt back home was gone.
He still had red fur, but his hair color changed dramatically, from black to a deep blackish red.
"How strange. This timeline does not seem to have the same kind of oppressive pressure as the main one."
Gohan looked at himself in surprise.
Right now, he felt like he could maintain Super Saiyan 4 indefinitely as long as he did not fight. Nothing like the main timeline, where the consumption was terrifying and he could not hold it for long.
This felt like the true Super Saiyan 4. The Great Ape form massively reinforced the body, and then the Super Saiyan transformation triggered a qualitative change, forcibly compressing that gigantic power back down into a humanoid size. In a way, it was very similar to main timeline Piccolo's giant form compressing for a power boost.
Super Saiyan 4 was monstrous not only in terms of multiplier, but also in terms of its nearly indestructible physical body.
With a body like this, it could easily withstand several thousandfold increases in power.
"I am coming."
Goku did not give him more time to think. The moment he saw Gohan complete his Super Saiyan 4 transformation, he charged in.
Boom.
Gohan, swept up in that wild aura, threw away his usual fighting style and started trading raw blows with Goku.
Bang, bang, bang, bang.
Every physical collision sent shockwaves crashing through the ground. The Sacred World's surface caved in and sank in ring after ring.
The longer Gohan fought, the more exhilarated he became. In the main timeline, he had never been able to push Super Saiyan 4 this far.
He could feel it clearly. As long as he did not waste energy on beam clashes, his body alone could keep brawling like this forever.
It was also only Goku's second time using Super Saiyan 4. He too could feel how extraordinary this form was.
Both of them were slowly getting familiar with it, slowly mastering it.
Because of that, as time passed, their battle power and ki did not drop at all. Instead, they grew stronger.
"Kakarot, I will catch up to you very soon."
Vegeta growled, unwilling to be left behind.
As they gradually adapted to Super Saiyan 4, their battle changed again. They no longer just slammed into each other head on. Instead, each of them started bringing out their own martial arts.
Gohan thrust his palm straight at Goku's face. Goku brought his hands together and clamped down on Gohan's wrist.
Gohan stepped in, exploding forward, driving his knee toward Goku's abdomen.
Goku folded his legs into a cross guard, blocking the knee.
Gohan yanked back the trapped hand, while his other hand lashed forward, fingers like a spear toward Goku's chest.
Goku once again blocked with a horizontal palm.
Gohan shifted instantly, turning his palm into a fist. His waist snapped, heel stomping into the ground.
Gohan's version of a one-inch punch.
Bang. Boom.
Goku was sent flying.
"Aaagh, cough, cough… that hurts."
Super Saiyan 4 Goku clutched his chest, wincing.
"Again."
The sharp pain did not dampen his spirits at all. If anything, it only stoked his fighting spirit.
He tapped his foot lightly and darted toward Gohan.
Gohan mirrored him.
Right before they collided, Goku suddenly dropped to one knee, spun, and executed a clean shoulder throw.
Boom.
The ground cracked, leaving a deep crater.
Gohan sat up, rubbing the back of his head with a pained expression.
"Since when did you get so crafty?"
"Hehe, any move that can knock down your opponent is a good move."
Goku grinned, having evened the score.
"Again."
Gohan's fighting spirit was also burning.
He flashed behind Goku, arms crossing in front of Goku's neck and locking it tight in a choke hold.
Bang, bang, bang.
Goku drove both elbows hard into Gohan's stomach, trying to force him to let go.
The sharp pain only made Gohan squeeze tighter.
"Cough…"
Goku was starting to have trouble breathing.
"Argh…"
With no other choice, Goku opened his mouth wide and chomped down viciously on Gohan's forearm.
This time, Gohan finally let go. If he held on any longer, Goku really would take a chunk of meat out of his arm.
"Tch. Shameless."
Vegeta clicked his tongue.
"Dad, playing dirty, is that it?"
Gohan gritted his teeth, kneading the bite marks on his arm.
"Hehe. Serves you right for not letting go."
Goku did not care about saving face at all.
"Fine, fine, so you want to play like that. Do not blame me then."
Gohan's eyes flashed. He shot forward again.
Monkey Steals the Peach. Black Tiger Steals the Heart. Monkey Steals the Peach. Black Tiger Steals the Heart.
Goku found himself in complete chaos. If he guarded high, he could not guard low. If he guarded low, he could not guard high. He backpedaled again and again.
Bang, bang, bang, bang.
The pain down below easily eclipsed a few broken ribs.
"Ah, ow, ow, ow, stop, stop, I give up, I give up!"
Goku, caught off guard, took two clean hits to his lower body.
The extreme pain instantly tore his Super Saiyan 4 away and kicked him back to base.
"If we are talking about dirty tricks, you may not beat me."
Gohan gave a sinister little chuckle.
The tone of the entire scene flipped in an instant. Everyone watching was completely stunned.
"You can fight like that?"
GT Gohan stared blankly at Piccolo, as if asking him for confirmation.
"Do not look at me. I do not have that weakness. But yes, that was pretty shameless."
Piccolo's face twitched.
"Completely disgracing us Saiyans."
Vegeta covered his face. He really could not watch.
Goku lay on the ground, butt high in the air, both hands clamped over his crotch.
Tears leaked from the corners of his eyes.
It hurt. It really hurt.
