Chapter 148: Chapter 148 - Goku vs Broly (Part 2)
"Dad!"
"Goku!"
Gohan and the others gasped as they saw Goku crash into the iceberg.
Suddenly, a tremendous roar echoed from within the shattered ice, and a fiery red light burst forth, scattering debris in all directions with a powerful surge of energy. Emerging from the rubble, radiating a blazing aura, was none other than Goku.
His appearance had transformed—his hair was now a vivid red, his frame leaner yet radiating intense power. His skin was slightly lighter, his eyes larger and focused, his youthful, godlike aura burning like the sun. This was Goku's Super Saiyan God form.
"What…what is that?" Paragus stared in shock.
Though he had seen the golden-haired Super Saiyan form, this transformation was entirely unfamiliar.
"Is this some sort of Saiyan God form? Could Broly even manage such a transformation?" Frieza asked, glancing at Paragus.
Paragus shook his head. "Broly hasn't even accessed his Super Saiyan form yet."
Frieza smirked, his mind churning with possibilities. Having witnessed Kale's power in the Tournament of Power, he knew there were different types of Super Saiyan transformations—and Broly's abilities seemed to channel an even rarer, more ferocious power.
"And what's with Broly's eyes?" Frieza asked, noting their wild golden gleam.
"Broly is in his humanoid Great Ape form," Paragus explained.
"Humanoid Great Ape?" Frieza raised an eyebrow.
"Yes. It means Broly can harness the power of a Great Ape without transforming under a full moon. He retains his human form but wields the ape's strength."
"I see." Frieza's eyes gleamed with intrigue as he observed the clash unfolding before him.
As they spoke, Goku had recovered and was now charging directly toward Broly. Broly let out a ferocious roar and swung his right fist with all his might. Goku dodged with ease, sidestepping the attack and landing a powerful punch of his own on Broly's torso.
Bang! Broly staggered back, his body skidding across the ice before he ground his heels down, bringing himself to a stop. The impact had cracked the frozen ground beneath him, splintering it into countless pieces.
"Ahhh!" Broly let out a primal scream and lunged at Goku like a wild beast. Although his strength was monumental, his lack of combat experience showed; his attacks were wild and unrefined, resembling an animal's assault more than a warrior's.
Goku observed him calmly, waiting for the perfect moment. Just as Broly was about to reach him, Goku swiftly sidestepped, moving behind him in an instant. Broly whipped around, but before he could react, Goku anchored himself with his hands and delivered a powerful kick to Broly's midsection.
Bang! The blow launched Broly backward, sending him flying several hundred meters. But before Broly could even steady himself, Goku dashed forward, his fists moving faster than the eye could follow, striking Broly with a relentless barrage.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Each hit reverberated across the icy plains as Goku's fists collided with Broly's face and torso. Under the relentless onslaught, Broly's screams filled the air as he was driven back, his body barely able to withstand the attacks.
After a few moments, Goku clenched his right fist and unleashed a final punch to Broly's jaw. The force of the blow sent Broly hurtling back once again, crashing through several icebergs in a thunderous series of impacts before finally being buried beneath a mound of ice and rubble.
"Broly!" Paragus cried out, unable to believe what he was seeing. Though he knew Goku was powerful, he hadn't expected him to overwhelm Broly so decisively.
Goku took a deep breath, a faint smile of satisfaction on his face as he observed the ruined iceberg. But suddenly, a fierce, guttural scream echoed from beneath the ice. Green energy burst outward, scattering chunks of the glacier and shaking the entire landscape.
"What?" Goku's eyes widened in shock. He had thought Broly was near his limit, but instead, Broly's power was still rising.
Not only Goku, but even Gohan and the other onlookers looked on with surprise. Goku had transformed into a Super Saiyan God, yet he still hadn't managed to subdue Broly, who hadn't even entered Super Saiyan form.
"If he can do this without transforming, what happens when he does?" Gohan muttered, awe-stricken.
Suddenly, Broly's energy flared, and he launched himself forward, his body glowing with an intense green light as he charged straight for Goku.
In response, Goku braced himself, gathering his strength as he rushed to meet Broly head-on. In an instant, they clashed, their fists and feet colliding at unimaginable speeds.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The two fighters moved swiftly across the ice, attacking each other with relentless fury.
After a prolonged exchange, Goku began to tire, his stamina waning under Broly's relentless assault. Gradually, Broly's attacks gained the upper hand, forcing Goku back.
Bang! With a powerful blow, Broly sent Goku flying, his body crashing into yet another iceberg.
Frieza observed the scene with a smug grin. Although he wasn't fighting Goku directly, watching him get overwhelmed brought him no small amount of satisfaction.
But before Frieza could savor his victory, an intense roar erupted from the wreckage. A blue light shot into the sky, scattering the remains of the ice. In its center stood Goku, his hair and eyebrows now a brilliant sky blue, his pupils darkened to a steely blue, and his body surrounded by a radiant blue aura.
This was Goku's Super Saiyan Blue transformation.
Frieza's expression shifted to one of concern. Having faced Goku in this form before, he knew all too well the power that Super Saiyan Blue possessed.
With a yell, Goku charged forward, his body becoming a blur of blue light as he closed the gap between him and Broly.
Bang! Goku unleashed a punch with all his might, and Broly met it with a clenched fist of his own. Their collision generated a shockwave that shattered the ice beneath their feet, creating deep cracks that spread outward like a spiderweb.
Utilizing the force from their clash, Goku pushed Broly back. Broly's body flew across the frozen ground, only coming to a stop when he slammed his feet down, digging into the ice to halt his momentum.
In an instant, Goku appeared before him, unleashing a barrage of punches with blinding speed. Each strike hit its mark, and Broly could barely register the attacks as they landed on his face, torso, and limbs.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Under Goku's fierce onslaught, Broly stumbled backward, eventually crashing into an iceberg with a roar of pain. The sheer force of the impact sent cracks spreading across the iceberg, and Broly's screams echoed through the icy wasteland.
