Chapter 40 Goku VS Piccolo
Chapter 40 Goku VS Piccolo
Next up is the most exciting championship final. Chi-Chi knows that Piccolo is the former Piccolo Daimaō. After being defeated by Goku, he spat out an egg containing his soul and all his power. This egg gave birth to the current Piccolo, who came here to kill Goku. Chi-Chi couldn't help but silently pray that Goku would win. She just didn't know who she was praying to. If she was praying to Kami, it probably wouldn't work.
At the martial arts tournament finals, the audience was incredibly enthusiastic, with cheers erupting everywhere. Naturally, the betting odds were also unprecedentedly high; Shang Yun continued to bet everything on Sun Wukong to win, and Lan Fang followed suit.
Dressed in simple martial arts attire, Sun Wukong confidently stepped onto the arena, his eyes resolute and filled with a thirst for battle. After three years of training, his body had become stronger, and his aura had grown increasingly powerful.
Piccolo appeared in a black combat suit, his eyes cold and radiating an aura of evil. His tall, muscular physique exuded immense power. Piccolo's arrival instantly heightened the tension, and the audience felt the oppressive presence emanating from him.
The referee stood in the center of the ring, introducing the two fighters. When Piccolo's relationship with the former Piccolo Daimaō was mentioned, the audience erupted in a commotion. They began to worry about Goku's safety, while also filled with anticipation for the outcome of the battle.
Goku and Piccolo stared at each other, their eyes filled with hostility. The air seemed thick with the smell of gunpowder, and the tense atmosphere made everyone hold their breath, waiting for the battle to begin.
The battle bell rang, and Goku launched the first attack. He flashed and instantly appeared in front of Piccolo, throwing a punch. The punch was extremely fast, accompanied by a whistling sound, but Piccolo reacted quickly, easily dodging Goku's attack by sidestepping.
Piccolo immediately launched a counterattack, extending his palm and unleashing a powerful energy wave that shot straight towards Goku. Goku swiftly leaped to dodge, and the energy wave struck the arena with a deafening roar, leaving a deep crater in the ring.
After regaining his footing, Goku immediately unleashed his signature move—the Kamehameha. He clasped his hands together, gathering all his power, and blue energy shimmered in his palms. With a shout, a powerful Kamehameha wave shot towards Piccolo.
Piccolo, not to be outdone, thrust his hands forward, unleashing his energy wave that collided with Goku's Kamehameha in mid-air. The two powerful energies collided, erupting with a tremendous sound and dazzling light, causing the entire arena to tremble slightly under the impact of the force.
The battle raged on for some time, with both Goku and Piccolo giving it their all, constantly increasing their energy output. Their faces showed signs of strain, but their eyes were filled with determination and unwavering resolve.
After a brief pause in their energy clashes, the two quickly closed in and engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Goku, with his agility and nimble movements, relentlessly punched and kicked Piccolo's vital points. Piccolo, in turn, used his strong physique and superior fighting skills to defend and counterattack; each of his counterattacks was powerful enough to deter Goku from taking him lightly.
Goku rolled behind Piccolo, attempting a sneak attack. But Piccolo, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, swiftly turned and blocked Goku's attack with his elbow. Then, Piccolo kicked out, which Goku quickly blocked with his arm, the powerful force causing him to stagger back several steps.
After a period of close combat, the two distanced themselves again. Piccolo then unleashed his ultimate move—the "Demon Energy Bullet." He clasped his hands together, gathering powerful energy, and a beam of red energy shot out from his hands. This beam contained immense destructive power, distorting the air in its path.
Sun Wukong sensed the immense power of the "Demon Energy Bullet." He took a deep breath and unleashed the Kamehameha once more. This time, he poured all his power into the Kamehameha, making the blue energy wave even more dazzling and powerful.
The two ultimate attacks collided again in mid-air, the massive energy impact shaking the entire martial arts arena. Spectators covered their ears, dodging the flying energy fragments. Cracks began to appear on the arena under the impact of this force, as if it might collapse at any moment.
In the clash between the "Demon Ki Blast" and the Kamehameha, Piccolo gradually gained the upper hand. He continuously increased his energy output, making it increasingly difficult for Goku to withstand.
In the end, Sun Wukong was hit by the aftershock of the "Demon Qi Bullet," his body flew backward, and he crashed heavily onto the arena.
Sun Wukong had multiple wounds on his body, and blood was flowing freely. His face turned pale, but his eyes were still full of fighting spirit. He struggled to stand up and continue fighting.
Piccolo looked at the injured Goku with a smug smile. He began to mock Goku, saying he couldn't possibly defeat him and trying to get Goku to give up. However, Goku was unaffected by Piccolo's provocation; he gritted his teeth and stood up again.
Goku sensed Piccolo's power, but he did not back down. He recalled his training at Kami's Lookout and the teachings of his masters, and a powerful surge of strength welled up within him. He decided to no longer hold back and launch a full-force attack.
Goku unleashed his newly learned skill—the Flying Technique. He soared freely through the air, dodging Piccolo's attacks while searching for an opportunity to counterattack. Piccolo was surprised by Goku's Flying Technique, but he quickly regained his composure and continued his attack.
Goku dodged Piccolo's attacks in the air while gathering all his strength. He decided to deliver the final blow and end the battle. He clasped his hands together and unleashed the Kamehameha once more, this time more powerful than ever before.
Piccolo also sensed the power of Goku's attack, and he prepared to meet it with all his might. He thrust out his hands and released the "Demonic Energy Bullet" once again.
The two powerful energy waves collided in mid-air once more, this time with an even more intense impact. The entire martial arts arena was enveloped in the light of energy, making it almost impossible for the spectators to see what was happening on the stage.
After a fierce battle, Goku's Kamehameha finally defeated Piccolo's "Demon Ki Blast." The energy wave sent Piccolo flying, crashing heavily out of the ring. Goku, exhausted, collapsed on the ring.
As the energy glow gradually faded, the referee stepped onto the stage to assess the two fighters. Ultimately, the referee declared Sun Wukong the champion of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament. The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers, rejoicing in Sun Wukong's victory.
Goku lay on the ring, a tired but satisfied smile on his face. He wasn't arrogant because of his victory, but rather acknowledged Piccolo's strength. He knew Piccolo was a formidable opponent, and this battle had been very rewarding for him.
Piccolo lay outside the ring, filled with resentment. He had thought he could defeat Goku and avenge his father, but ultimately failed. However, he also realized Goku's strength from this battle, and he decided to continue training so that he could challenge Goku again in the future.
