Dragon Ball: Ultimate Selection System

Bang, bang, bang!

The sound of fists and feet colliding echoed through the sky like thunder.

Link and Turles began an duel against the towering Tree of Might in the background. At times, they clashed thousands of meters apart; other moments, they crashed together on the ground or in mid-air within seconds.

Their movements were so swift that no one present could clearly discern their actions—only the constant, explosive impacts resonated overhead. Among the onlookers, only Broly managed to keep some pace with their rapid exchange.

"Is this… is this truly the power of King Link?"

"Too strong! King Link is even stronger than five years ago!"

The Saiyans watching stood agape in astonishment. Meanwhile, the traitorous ones—and those of the Turles Legion—quietly and fearfully began to retreat toward the Tree of Might.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Seize this chance and leave quickly!" urged the fleeing crowd.

"Should we really escape?" one questioned.

"Idiot! How can we fight in such a battle? Get back to the spaceship immediately!"

Link that returned after a five-year absence was clearly far stronger than Turles. If they didn't flee now, they'd be forced to wait until Turles was truly defeated. And as for pleading for Link's forgiveness, they all knew: Saiyans never show mercy!

Up in the sky, Turles had already tried every moves draining his every bit of energy, but his frustration grew with every blow. He could sense that Link, on the opposing side, was not even using his full strength—and yet, he was effortlessly playing with him.

"Why? Why? Link, show me your true power!" Turles raged.

Link paused for a moment and then, with a smile, replied, "Okay."

He had grown tired of this game. Turles, with a combat power of 300,000, was undeniably more durable than the space pirates. The next moment, a massive blow struck Turles in the face.

Time seemed to freeze—Turles felt his face twist and his teeth shatter. Then time resumed its flow, and Turles was flung away like a cannonball, leaving behind a streak of light as he crashed into a huge crater on the trunk of the Tree of Might.

"Link!" Turles roared, struggling to claw his way out of the crater.

"I'm Turles! The future emperor of the universe! How can I lose to you?" he shouted in a mix of rage and disbelief.

Moments later, Turles soared overhead. Above him, the Tree of Might loomed, and beneath it hung several unripe fruits—still a bit green, yet potent enough to boost combat effectiveness. Turles could hardly contain his impatience; he longed to devour a fruit to immediately increase his power and finish Link off.

In his thoughts, he imagined trampling Link beneath his feet and torturing him once he had ate the fruits.

When Link noticed Turles heading toward the fruits, he grinned, "It just so happens that a crowd is on the tree—I'll let you guys and the tree vanish together..."

As a sacred tree, the Tree of Might could not be destroyed by ordinary attacks. In the old plot, even Goku relied on an energy bomb that absorbed the tree's fruit to bring down such a massive structure. Though Link did not know how to use that technique, he possessed moves superior to them.

"Ha!" Link roared, and a golden aura began to rise around him. This light exerted an pressure on all the Saiyans present.

"This… this is..." Vegeta(king) murmured, gazing at the golden light emanating from Link's body. An ancient legend, long whispered among the Saiyan royal family, stirred within his mind.

On the Tree of Might, Turles had just plucked the darkest fruit. As he was about to devour it, he sensed an unusual, horrifying aura beneath it—a terror inside the very genes of every Saiyan.

"Link? He… is he... impossible?" Turles growled through gritted teeth as he bit into the fruit.

Immediately upon swallowing, he felt an astonishing surge within his body. The injuries inflicted by Link's assault healed instantly, and his lost strength was not only restored but multiplied several times over.

Then, Turles activated his communicator:

"I am Turles! Report my current combat power!"

"Sir, your combat power has exceeded 600,000!" came the reply.

"600,000? Hahahaha!" Turles burst into mocking laughter.

Indeed, the soil of Planet Vegeta was perfect for nurturing Tree of Might fruits—even unripe ones could yield tremendous power. If all the fruits matured, his strength would climb even higher. Even the might of the frozen demon clan would pale in comparison!

Before Turles could bask in his newfound power, desperate shouts came from his men through the communicator:

"Lord Turles! There's a powerful fighting force near you—this force appears to belong to that Saiyan!"

"Link? What's his power level?" Turles demanded.

"800,000, 900,000, 1 million... no, it must be more than that!"

At that moment, a violent "bang" exploded near Turles. Turning his head, he saw a burst of smoke rising from near his ship, which was now triggering a chain reaction on board.

"Run! Run away!"

Within the spaceship, the combat detector, overloaded by the excess power level, caused a chain reaction, forcing survivors to flee toward their only stronghold—Turles himself.

Yet suddenly, a flash of light was seen beneath the Tree of Might. Link, now fully transformed into a Pseudo-Super Saiyan, floated calmly and raised one hand toward the tree.

Without resorting to elaborate techniques, he simply condensed his energy into a green ball of light and pushed it toward the Tree of Might.

The ball, roughly the size of a basketball and moving slowly, soon entered the tree. In response, a towering pillar of light erupted from the trunk, penetrating the tree, reaching its peak—and ultimately engulfing Turles and the treacherous Saiyans within.

"I won't give in! I am the King of Saiyans~!" Turles' final desperate cry echoed within the beam as the ground shook violently.

A dazzling white light spread outward, centered on the Tree of Might, and soon enveloped most of Planet Vegeta.

Under this awe-inspiring light, every Saiyan on the planet fell to their knees, their hearts gripped by terror as they believed their doom was at hand.

But in a miraculous moment, the branches that had cloaked Planet Vegeta transformed into golden light spots—like flakes of white snow scattering over the land. These radiant spots was the very life essence of Planet Vegeta, absorbed by the Tree of Might!

As that energy seeped into the earth, the withered land was healed—as if nourished by rain—restoring life to everything on Planet Vegeta.

At that moment, the planet, once on the brink of destruction, was resurrected!
