DBZ Goten : Become Stronger By Defeating Your Opponent

Whoosh! Goku's fist flew straight through Moro's illusion, dissipating it into thin air.

"This is just an illusion!" Goku exclaimed, his eyes narrowing in realization.

Before he could react, the real Moro appeared behind him. With a sinister grin, Moro placed his right hand on Goku's abdomen. A surge of deep blue energy erupted from Goku's body, drawn into Moro's palm.

Goku's transformation immediately faded, his body reverting to its base form as his energy drained rapidly.

"Goku!" Merus shouted, panic evident in his voice.

"Kakarot!" Vegeta's voice boomed, his expression twisted in anger.

"Oh no!" Merus muttered, his face pale with worry.

"What's wrong, Merus?" Jaco asked, glancing at him nervously.

"I forgot to warn everyone… Moro can absorb the energy of living beings and even planets!" Merus admitted, cursing himself for the oversight.

"Kakarot, you fool!" Vegeta growled, clenching his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. His frustration boiled over, and with a thunderous roar, his aura erupted violently. His hair turned a radiant purple, his brows vanished, and golden pupils glared out from sunken brow ridges. His entire body radiated a deep purple Ki, exuding unmatched power.

"This… this is…" Merus stammered, unable to process what he was witnessing.

"This is Ultra Ego," Jaco explained, his voice trembling as Vegeta's energy surged across the battlefield.

In the blink of an eye, Vegeta vanished, reappearing directly in front of Moro. Without hesitation, he unleashed a flurry of punches, each one striking Moro with devastating precision.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Moro, caught off guard, staggered backward as Vegeta's fists pummeled his face and torso. Each blow drew a pained scream from the sorcerer.

With a powerful leap, Vegeta soared into the air. He twisted mid-flight and delivered a crushing kick to Moro's face, sending him hurtling into a nearby hill. The impact stirred up a massive cloud of dust, and chunks of rock rained down, burying Moro beneath the rubble.

Vegeta floated above, his expression cold and unyielding. He raised his right hand, forming a glowing sphere of Hakai energy.

"This will end you," Vegeta declared, hurling the Hakai blast toward the buried Moro.

Sensing the impending doom, Moro frantically clawed his way out of the rubble, his face a mask of panic. He extended his hands, attempting to absorb the destructive energy. However, as the Hakai approached, an unfamiliar dread gripped him. His soul trembled as the fear of annihilation took hold.

"Hakai…" Moro muttered, his voice shaking. "It's the bane of all things."

The blast collided with Moro's hands, forcing him to retreat several steps. Sweat dripped down his face as he struggled to hold it at bay.

Vegeta smirked, raising his left hand. A golden energy wave formed in his palm, and with a sharp motion, he launched it at the Hakai.

"What?!" Moro shouted, his eyes widening in horror.

BOOM!!!

The golden wave detonated the Hakai in a violent explosion. A massive purple storm engulfed the island, shaking it to its core. The surrounding sea churned violently, and a colossal mushroom cloud rose into the sky, casting a shadow over the battlefield.

When the smoke cleared, a giant crater was all that remained of the island's surface. Moro lay in the pit, battered and gasping for breath. His once-confident demeanor was gone, replaced by a lingering fear.

Moro's gaze flickered to Vegeta, who stood triumphantly in the distance. For the first time, Moro felt true dread—not of Vegeta's strength, but of the destructive energy he wielded. Energy that he, Moro, could not absorb.

"I need to escape," Moro muttered under his breath, his mind racing. He hadn't yet recovered to his full strength. Fighting any longer would only risk his life. Revenge could wait—first, he needed to survive.

Without hesitation, Moro extended his hands to the ground, channeling his magic. The energy of Planet Namek began to flow into him, healing his injuries and restoring his power.

"Vegeta! He's absorbing Namek's energy!" Merus shouted.

"What?!" Vegeta snarled, immediately launching himself toward Moro.

Moro, sensing the incoming threat, pushed himself up and flew into the sky. Vegeta followed closely, his speed unmatched as he quickly closed the gap.

With a mighty roar, Vegeta delivered a devastating kick to Moro's back, sending him crashing into the ground once more. The impact raised another massive cloud of dust, obscuring Moro's figure.

Vegeta descended, gathering another sphere of Hakai energy in his hands.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions rocked the island as Vegeta unleashed a relentless barrage of Hakai blasts. Each detonation sent shockwaves through the battlefield, and Moro's screams echoed above the chaos.

When the dust settled, Vegeta landed, his gaze fixed on the motionless form of Moro. Step by step, he approached, intent on ending the fight for good.

But Moro wasn't done. With a roar of defiance, he summoned his remaining strength. Magma erupted from beneath Vegeta's feet, forcing him to leap into the air.

Taking advantage of the distraction, Moro used his magic to summon a massive meteor from space. The fiery rock hurtled toward Vegeta with deadly intent.

"Is that the best you've got?" Vegeta sneered, forming a golden energy wave in his hand. With a single blast, he shattered the meteor into countless fragments.

While Vegeta dealt with the meteor, Moro made his move. His body flashed as he soared into the atmosphere, heading straight for the void of space.

"No!" Vegeta shouted, realizing Moro's plan. He immediately gave chase, but Moro turned and fired a powerful energy wave at him. Forced to dodge, Vegeta lost valuable time. By the time he recovered, Moro had crossed into the vacuum of space.

Vegeta stopped abruptly, clenching his fists in frustration. Saiyans couldn't survive in space, and Moro knew it.

"Damn it!" Vegeta roared, his aura flaring as his anger boiled over. But it was too late. Moro had escaped.

Vegeta slowly descended back to Namek, his energy fading as he reverted to his normal form.

"Vegeta…" Goku called out, his voice soft.

Vegeta met Goku's gaze and nodded, his expression grim. "That bastard got away."

"It's not your fault, Vegeta," Goku said, trying to reassure him.

Nearby, Jaco looked on with a bitter expression. "With Moro still at large, the Galactic Patrol's troubles are far from over," he muttered.

Goku turned to Vegeta. "Let's head back to Earth for now."

Vegeta nodded. "Fine."

"I'll come too," Jaco added. "My ship's still on Earth, and I'll need it to report back."
