Vegeta's last attack had carved a massive crater into the ground.
The shockwave nearly obliterated the nearby palace. Even Goku had to use Instant Transmission to escape the blast radius.
Lynx and the others, farther out, had taken to the skies for safety.
And yet—despite taking the full brunt of the attack—Broly stood completely unscathed. His energy hadn't dropped even slightly.
No… it was still rising.
"How… how is that possible?" Vegeta's eyes widened in disbelief as he felt Broly's power climb further.
"Dad!" "Everyone, stay sharp!" Goku shouted.
Cold sweat ran down Lynx's face.
Broly's power level was still increasing.
55 million…60 million…65 million…70 million…
The sky shook. The ground trembled.
Broly's expression twisted into one of pain—
"RAAAHHHH!!!"
Suddenly, the sky above crackled with lightning.
Bolts of electricity split the air, then shattered into a web of strikes that rained down vertically, slamming into the planet.
BOOM! BOOM!
Several of Paragus's arriving foot soldiers were caught by the lightning and instantly vaporized.
"Watch out!!" Goku shielded Gohan from a bolt of lightning.
Lynx swept his arm, blasting a bolt aside with a shockwave.
Goku glanced his way, surprised by the burst of energy Lynx had just unleashed. But the attention quickly shifted back to Broly.
Broly's golden aura began to change—its hue shifting to a yellow-green.
Vegeta suddenly remembered what Paragus had said upon their first meeting:
"The aura of the Legendary Super Saiyan… is yellow-green."
So Broly wasn't done transforming yet?
He was already a Super Saiyan—was there something beyond that?
Vegeta's instincts screamed: Yes.
"KAKAROT!! KAKAROT!!"Broly's roar turned feral. His muscles ballooned outward.
A cruel, violent ki burst from him like a tidal wave.
And then—his pupils began to vanish.
BOOOOOM!!
A surge of yellow-green energy exploded around him.
Suddenly, every fighter present felt a terrifying chill crawl up their spine.
"Hahahaha! It's over! You're all doomed! Nothing can stop him now!" Paragus shouted in despair, watching as Broly finally completed his final transformation.
"That's the true Legendary Super Saiyan! He'll never stop… not until he's destroyed the universe itself!!"
Broly's hair now flowed long and wild. His eyes glowed with a pale, pupil-less fury, and his physique had grown even more monstrous—like a wrathful god of destruction.
"T-The Legendary Super Saiyan…?" Vegeta whispered.
And then—he broke.
Unable to resist the suffocating pressure, Vegeta dropped out of Super Saiyan form, fell to the ground, and collapsed to his knees, gasping.
"W-What's… happening to me?"
"You feel it too, don't you?" Paragus dragged himself out of a crater and gave a bitter laugh.
"It's your pure Saiyan blood reacting. This is the true royal bloodline of the Saiyan race! The Legendary Super Saiyan's presence suppresses all other Saiyans!"
"N-No… I…" Vegeta tried to resist, but his body wouldn't obey.
This fear—this hopelessness—he hadn't felt anything like it since the day he faced Frieza.
"We're going to die…"And Vegeta wasn't the only one who felt it.
Goku and Lynx, both pure-blooded Saiyans, were also trembling.
The pressure from Broly's ki was like a bloodline-dominance—a primal instinct forcing them to yield.
"So… this is the real Legendary Super Saiyan?" Lynx gritted his teeth, struggling to stay standing.
Broly's strength had now reached 80 million.
His transformation multiplier was 50x—far beyond the standard 20x of a normal Super Saiyan.
Can I even beat something like this on my own…? Rīku couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
"KAKAROT!!"Broly bared his teeth in a bloodthirsty grin as he locked eyes with Goku.
"I'll tear you apart!"
Suddenly, Broly stomped, crushing the ground underfoot as he launched toward—Lynx.
"Dad!"Gohan shouted as Broly veered toward them.
Goku grabbed Gohan in a flash.
"Run, Gohan! Get out of here!!"
Even Goku, for all his fighting spirit, felt the overwhelming gap between himself and Broly.
He knew he couldn't win—not now.
So he grabbed his son and fled.
Broly chased them immediately, his green aura lighting up the sky.
Trunks called out to Lynx:
"Mr. Lynx, please get Krillin and the others to safety!"
Lynx nodded and flew the group in the opposite direction of Broly.
According to his system's mission path, he couldn't interfere too early in the battle. His objective required Goku and the others to be defeated first.
Only then could he intervene.
But… can I really beat Broly? Alone?
Far off, Goku and Gohan ducked and weaved through the air, dodging blasts of green energy that shattered the land behind them.
Each blast left a smoking crater. Several times, they barely escaped thanks to Goku's Instant Transmission.
Then—Broly suddenly stopped.
A cruel smirk crossed his face. In his hand, he formed a large teal energy sphere, then lobbed it—
—straight at the labor camp.
BOOM!
Screams rang out as the explosion vaporized dozens of enslaved Shamoians.
"Hahahahaha! KAKAROT! Fight me—or I'll destroy this planet piece by piece!!"
"You bastard!! I won't let you!!"
Goku's eyes blazed with fury. He and Gohan dropped to the ground.
With a roar, Goku transformed into Super Saiyan.
Gohan and Trunks landed beside him, both igniting their golden auras.
Three Super Saiyans stood shoulder to shoulder—ready to make a stand.
But Broly only laughed—a cruel, merciless laugh—and charged straight at them.
BOOOOOOM!!
A wave of pure force exploded outward, shaking the battlefield.
