Broly in her Legendary Super Saiyan mode was incredibly powerful, fully capable of matching a Super Saiyan 2.
Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea took turns battling Broly, yet even without a life-or-death struggle, they could only fight her to a draw.
And this was after limiting Broly's power to ensure she retained her consciousness. If they allowed her to unleash her full strength without restraint, who knew how terrifying she could become?
After Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea, Chi-Chi, Android 18, Dark Android 18, Celipa, and Sharuru also took turns fighting Broly. However, they all suffered undeniable defeats, making them truly realize the extent of Broly's terrifying strength.
If Yuujin was the perfect Saiyan, a balance of power and wisdom developed through natural evolution, then Broly was a pure embodiment of strength—undoubtdbedly the strongest Saiyan!
Marveling at Broly's overwhelming power and talent, Yuujin couldn't help but feel delighted.
Broly was their comrade and family. The stronger she became, the stronger they were as a whole.
Although there was no jealousy, there was a bit of pressure.
After all, Yuujin was a proud warrior who refused to accept defeat. He acknowledged Broly's power and her combat talent, but that didn't mean he would give up.
Not only Yuujin, but Gokumi, Vegea, and Chi-Chi all felt the same way.
Thus, in the following days, while helping Broly control her power, Yuujin and the others also threw themselves into rigorous training. They trained together, lived together, and laughed together.
And so, in this peaceful yet fulfilling life, seven years passed in the blink of an eye…
Year: Age 774
Location: Solar System, Mars
Many years ago, Yuujin, Gokumi, Chi-Chi, and Vegea had once fought Frieza—the emperor who ruled the universe—on Mars. That battle was earth-shattering, so intense that it ultimately led to the planet's destruction.
However, it was also in that battle that Yuujin and Gokumi broke past their limits, transforming into Super Saiyans, defeating the mighty Frieza, and beginning their true rise to power.
Mars' destruction affected the stability of the entire solar system. While it didn't cause immediate problems, over time, it would have led all the planets to deviate from their original orbits, resulting in catastrophic consequences. To prevent this, Yuujin and the others restored the planet using the Dragon Balls.
Now, after all these years, they returned to Mars—not to fight a powerful enemy, but to surpass themselves once more!
"AAAAAHHHHHH!!!"
Above the Martian landscape, Yuujin, Gokumi, Vegea, and Sharuru hovered midair, forming a circle as they unleashed their energy.
Through years of rigorous training, Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea had already pushed their Super Saiyan 2 forms to their limits. Even Sharuru had been strengthening herself, reaching a bottleneck in her cultivation.
If they wanted to progress further, there was only one path—to break through their limits and evolve to the next form.
In other words, Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea had to ascend to Super Saiyan 3, while Sharuru aimed to evolve into Golden Sharuru!
Back when Yuujin first ascended to Super Saiyan 2, he realized that simultaneous transformations between him and Gokumi affected each other's energy, making the breakthrough easier. So this time, they chose to evolve together.
However—
"Hah… Hah…"
Their energy collapsed, and Yuujin, Gokumi, Vegea, and Sharuru were left panting, their faces pale.
The path to Super Saiyan 3 was immensely difficult. The transformation consumed an enormous amount of energy, and, more importantly, an invisible shackle seemed to be blocking their progress, preventing them from breaking through no matter how hard they tried.
Not only Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea but Sharuru also faced the same problem.
Back when Cell transformed into Golden Cell, it had seemed easy, but that was because he had pushed himself to the brink of death repeatedly, forcing his power to evolve. While this rapid growth granted him immense strength, it also drained his future potential.
Sharuru couldn't afford such a reckless approach. Unlike Cell, she didn't have Namekian cells granting her regenerative abilities. If she made a mistake, it could lead to her actual death.
"Ah, you failed again?"
Android 18's voice rang out as she, Dark Android 18, and Broly flew toward them from a distance.
Though many years had passed, time had left no trace on Android 18 or Dark Android 18. They remained as youthful and beautiful as ever.
The two women looked identical, from their features to their outfits. To an outsider, telling them apart would have been impossible—but Yuujin could distinguish them easily.
And that was only natural. After all, he had intimately explored every inch of their bodies countless times. If he still couldn't tell them apart, there would be a real problem!
"18, how many times has this been?"
After catching his breath, Yuujin asked.
"Including this one, you've failed 350 times."
"The Senzu Beans we brought are almost gone. Should we ask Bulma to send more?"
Android 18 pulled out the bag containing the last few Senzu Beans.
A heavy silence fell over the group. Yuujin, Gokumi, Vegea, and Sharuru all looked grim—they had already failed this many times?!
"Yuujin…"
Broly floated beside Yuujin, tugging at his clothes.
Over the years, Broly had completely integrated into their group, viewing Yuujin, Gokumi, and the others as her family. Her personality hadn't changed much—she was still quiet and not fond of speaking.
She didn't say anything beyond calling his name, but Yuujin understood—she was worried about him.
"Don't worry, we're fine."
With a gentle smile, Yuujin stroked Broly's forehead.
Unlike her once-slender frame, Broly had become much curvier over the years, with all the right proportions in all the right places. Thanks to the numerous longevity fruits she had consumed, neither her body nor her appearance had aged at all.
Additionally, Broly now had long, waist-length, spiky hair, giving her an incredibly fierce and majestic look—similar to a Super Saiyan 3.
However, unlike Super Saiyan 3's golden hair, Broly's was green—her unique Legendary Super Saiyan form.
Under Yuujin and Gokumi's guidance, Broly had long since mastered her power. She could now transform without losing control, regulate her emotions to prevent berserker rage, and even manage her muscle mass to avoid looking overly bulky.
Per Yuujin's instructions, Broly remained in her Legendary Super Saiyan form most of the time to further refine her control.
In terms of sheer strength, Yuujin and the others were no longer her match. Even if Yuujin, Gokumi, and Vegea joined forces, they still wouldn't be able to defeat her. They would only have a chance once they reached Super Saiyan 3.
As a side note, Broly was now also Yuujin's wife—one of Earth's Goddess!
Despite possessing unmatched strength, Broly hadn't changed at all. Like Gokumi, she still obeyed Yuujin's every command and enjoyed his affection, especially his head pats.
"Yuujin, are we going to keep trying?"
Gokumi asked.
After failing hundreds of times, even she was beginning to feel discouraged.
After a brief moment of thought, Yuujin made his decision—
"We'll try one last time."
