NOVEL NEXT Chapter 46 Demonized Super Saiyan 3
High above the city, a towering throne floated ominously in the sky. Seated atop it was a small, twisted figure, Babidi.
He reveled in the worship of the countless corrupted humans below. To his left stood the towering menace Broly, and to his right, Majin Buu happily licked away at a candy-red lollipop.
The ground below writhed with thousands of enthralled followers, all chanting Babidi's name.
A self-satisfied smirk curled across Babidi's lips.
"This is just Earth. Once I control the whole universe, even more pathetic fools will kneel before me!"
Suddenly, Babidi's eyes widened. His body shivered with excitement. He let out a high-pitched, maniacal laugh.
"What a delicious surge of rage! Someone's coming... and they're furious!"
Eyes glowing with anticipation, Babidi leaned forward, scanning the sky like a predator sniffing out fresh prey. Behind him, Broly bared his teeth, muscles twitching. He could feel it too, the pressure. A challenger.
"Broly! Hey!" Babidi snapped, spinning around. "Don't lose your head! This one might be joining us!"
But before his warning even finished leaving his mouth,
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
A volley of Ki blasts tore down from the sky, each aimed precisely at Broly's position. Babidi's glee vanished, replaced by panic. He scrambled backward, barely able to react.
Broly didn't wait for commands. His instincts screamed danger. With a guttural roar, he ascended, green energy erupting around him like a raging inferno. His muscles ballooned, eyes flashing with madness. The Legendary Super Saiyan had awakened.
From above, a golden streak tore through the sky.
"YOU KILLED TRUNKS, YOU MONSTER!!"
The voice was raw fury. Vegeta burst forth like a meteor, his Super Saiyan aura roaring like a star gone nova. Electric arcs danced along his body as he hurtled down, his power condensed into one singular, devastating strike.
His fist locked on Broly's skull.
Broly, wild and grinning, launched himself upward to meet him. His own punch, massive, brutal, shot forward with primal force.
The moment their fists collided, the sky itself seemed to crack. The shockwave erupted in all directions, distorting the air and shaking the heavens. Below, the brainwashed crowds were thrown like leaves in a storm, hurled back by the raw pressure.
Babidi screamed and ducked behind Majin Buu, clutching the creature's vest for dear life.
"S-So much power!" He gasped, eyes wide with manic glee. "This one's burning with hatred!"
Then he scoffed, forcing a grin.
"But if that's all he's got, Broly will still grind him into the dirt. What a shame."
He shook his head mockingly, pretending to feel sorry. Back above, Vegeta and Broly's fists locked in the dead center, both arms pressed forward with unyielding force. But Broly grinned again, pulling back for another strike. He looked at Vegeta with contempt, like he was barely worth the effort.
Just as Broly's punch came within inches of Vegeta's face--
BOOM!
Vegeta's power surged in a blinding golden blaze. His hair lengthened, cascading down to his waist, crackling with divine energy. His eyes sharpened, pupils razor-focused on Broly.
Super Saiyan 3.
Vegeta bent his arm and, with one arm alone, caught and stopped both of Broly's fists cold.
Broly froze mid-air, his eyes bulging. He couldn't believe it.
"BASTAAAAARD!!" Vegeta roared, the fury in his voice shaking the sky.
The tide turned instantly. With a burst of force, Vegeta drove his knee into Broly's gut, then hurled him toward the ground like a meteor crashing to Earth.
Without hesitation, Vegeta unleashed a relentless barrage of punches, each strike slamming into Broly with unbridled fury. He poured every ounce of his rage into the assault, and with every blow, the image of Trunks dying at Broly's hands burned brighter in his mind.
Right now, nothing else mattered. Not the world, not the crowd, not even the consequences.
Only Trunks.
In this moment, Vegeta's ferocity even surpassed Broly's.
Broly staggered backward under the weight of the assault, his massive frame struggling to absorb the onslaught. Vegeta gave him no room to breathe, no chance to recover.
"RAAAH!!" Broly howled in frustration, trying to summon enough power to fight back.
But the moment his jaw opened to scream--
BOOM!
A glowing ball of energy was jammed directly into his mouth.
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!
Vegeta's Big Bang Attack detonated inside Broly's face, the force sending him rocketing backward through the air. He crashed nearly a kilometer away, coughing blood from his mouth. Wiping the blood with the back of his hand, Broly grinned, twitching with excitement. He liked it.
But when he looked back to where Vegeta had been…
He was gone.
Before Broly could blink, a golden light flashed behind him.
Vegeta's voice thundered: "You're going to die with Trunks! FINAL FLASH!!"
Blazing golden energy gathered in Vegeta's hands, swirling with godlike intensity.
From afar, Babidi's jaw dropped in disbelief. "Th-This can't be! Is Broly… actually going to die?!"
Beside him, Majin Buu mimicked Vegeta's pose, resting his hand across his chest in fascination, it was a strange gesture of respect for the Saiyan prince.
But just as Vegeta prepared to fire the finishing blow…
The light disappeared and the Final Flash fizzled out, and his Super Saiyan 3 aura began to fade as well.
"What?! This never happened in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber!" Vegeta's thoughts spun in confusion.
The harsh reality hit him, Super Saiyan 3's weakness.
Inside the Time Chamber's isolated dimension, stamina drain was dulled. But out here, in the real world, the transformation guzzled energy like a dying star.
And Broly saw his chance.
BANG!
With brutal force, Broly headbutted Vegeta square in the forehead, snapping him back to reality.
Vegeta stumbled, shaking off the pain, then steadied himself and powered back into Super Saiyan 2, his eyes blazing with resolve.
From above, Babidi smirked.
"Incredible," He said gleefully. "To push Broly this far… If he weren't so damn tough, he'd already be dead."
He raised both hands, dark magic swirling from his palms. "That kind of power should serve me! Now… become my loyal dog!"
Black magic crackled and shot toward Vegeta. Suddenly, Vegeta clutched his head in agony. Pain surged through him, not just physical, but emotional. All the violence, all the bloodshed, all his past sins, they came rushing back.
His scream echoed across the sky. Then, it appeared: the mark. A black "M" etched onto his forehead.
Babidi's eyes gleamed with twisted joy.
"Yes… That's it! Now you're mine! HAHAHAHA!"
But before he could finish his laugh, Vegeta's lips curled into a chilling grin.
He raised his head slowly. "Is that so?" he said coldly.
In a flash, golden light erupted again. Vegeta reawakened Super Saiyan 3, not as a slave, but as a warrior. His gaze locked onto both Babidi and Broly with lethal intent.
The storm was far from over.
