Son Goku sleepily stood in the yard, rubbing his eyes while preparing to relieve himself.
However, the moment he casually looked up at the night sky, his entire body froze.
Tonight’s moon was unbelievably round.
A massive silver full moon hung high above the sky without a single cloud blocking its light.
The reflection of the moon appeared clearly within Son Goku’s pupils.
“Haa…
haa…” A low growl slowly escaped from his throat.
“Thump!
Thump!
Thump!” The sound of his heartbeat grew heavier and heavier, like war drums echoing throughout the silent mountain forest.
Then, in the next instant…
“Boom!!” A violent, savage, and primal aura erupted from Son Goku’s small body.
His body rapidly expanded.
Black fur exploded outward across his skin.
Sharp fangs grew from his mouth.
His eyes lost all rationality, leaving only blood-red brutality behind.
“ROOOAAARRR!!!” Within seconds, a gigantic Great Ape over ten meters tall appeared directly in the middle of the yard.
“Bang!!” With a single swing of its massive hand, the Great Ape instantly smashed apart the small wooden house where Sun Wuxiu and Goku had lived for six entire years.
Sun Wuxiu had already rushed over after hearing the commotion.
The moment he saw the giant ape, he immediately understood.
Goku had transformed again.
“Grandpa!!” “Cough!
Cough!
Wuxiu, move!” Grandpa Gohan quickly crawled out from the collapsed ruins in a miserable state.
“ROAR!!” The Great Ape instantly locked onto the two tiny figures before it.
Its blood-red eyes radiated pure destruction.
Then its gigantic palm descended violently toward them while tearing through the air with terrifying force.
“Get back!” Sun Wuxiu instantly grabbed Grandpa Gohan.
The power of the [Rabbit Talisman] erupted immediately.
“Whoosh!” The two transformed into afterimages and narrowly escaped the devastating strike.
“RUMBLE!!” The ground where they had stood exploded into a massive crater several meters deep.
After stabilizing himself, Grandpa Gohan stared at the raging Great Ape destroying everything around it.
His face had become extremely ugly.
“It…
it happened again!
Goku’s transformation…” Four years ago and two years ago, Son Goku had transformed during full moons as well.
The first time, Grandpa Gohan had barely managed to survive after cutting off Goku’s tail with Sun Wuxiu’s warning.
The second time, Sun Wuxiu’s strength had increased significantly, allowing the two of them to suppress the transformed Goku together.
But tonight was completely different.
Grandpa Gohan’s expression turned grave.
“Wuxiu…
Goku’s power this time is far stronger than before!” Sun Wuxiu naturally felt it too.
This violent aura was on an entirely different level compared to two years ago.
After years of training, Goku had already become far stronger than his original self.
And after transforming into a Great Ape, his battle power increased another tenfold.
Sun Wuxiu instantly understood something terrifying.
This was likely the very same night from the original story when Grandpa Gohan was destined to die beneath Goku’s rampage.
If events continued according to fate, Grandpa Gohan would absolutely die tonight.
But Sun Wuxiu slowly narrowed his eyes.
“Unfortunately…” He fixed his gaze on the Great Ape’s tail while deliberately avoiding looking toward the moon.
“…I’m here this time.” “Grandpa!” Sun Wuxiu shouted calmly.
“We’ll use the same strategy as before!
Distract him while I cut off his tail!” “No!” Grandpa Gohan rejected the idea immediately.
“He’s much stronger than before!
It’s too dangerous!
I’ll handle him myself!” “ROAR!!” The Great Ape suddenly discovered their location again.
With a furious roar, it swung another enormous palm downward.
“[Rooster Talisman], move!” Sun Wuxiu’s pupils contracted sharply.
Powerful telekinesis erupted instantly, dragging both himself and Grandpa Gohan sideways more than ten meters.
“BOOM!!” The massive hand slammed into the earth and blasted apart the ground beneath them.
“Grandpa!
We don’t have time to hesitate!” Sun Wuxiu’s voice carried absolute determination.
“You know as well as I do that unless we cut off his tail, he’ll continue destroying everything until sunrise!
At this rate, all of Mount Paozu will be wiped out!” Grandpa Gohan stared at the determined eyes of the nine-year-old boy beside him.
Those eyes contained composure and resolve far beyond his age.
Finally, Grandpa Gohan gritted his teeth.
“Fine!
But Wuxiu, you must be careful!” “You too!” Grandpa Gohan stomped heavily onto the ground before leaping high into the air.
“Hey!
Over here, Goku!” The Great Ape’s attention shifted instantly toward Grandpa Gohan.
“Now!” Sun Wuxiu moved.
The [Rabbit Talisman] activated to its limit.
“Whoosh!” His body transformed into a white blur racing across the ground at incredible speed as he charged directly behind the Great Ape.
However, Great Ape instincts were terrifyingly sharp.
Without even turning around, the massive tail behind it suddenly swept sideways like a steel whip carrying overwhelming force.
“Oh no!” Sun Wuxiu’s expression changed instantly.
The attack was too fast.
He only had enough time to activate the [Ox Talisman] and strengthen himself with telekinesis from the [Rooster Talisman].
“Bang!!!” It felt like being smashed head-on by a speeding train.
Sun Wuxiu’s body shot through the air like a cannonball before crashing deeply into a cliff wall hundreds of meters away.
“Pfft!” He coughed up blood immediately.
An intense wave of pain spread throughout his body.
It felt as though all his internal organs had shifted from the impact.
“Wuxiu!!” Grandpa Gohan’s face turned pale in midair.
“ROAR!!” The Great Ape became even more violent after landing a successful attack.
Ignoring Grandpa Gohan entirely, it charged directly toward the cliff where Sun Wuxiu was embedded before raising its gigantic fist high into the air.
It clearly intended to crush him completely.
Embedded within the shattered cliff wall, Sun Wuxiu slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“[Dog Talisman]…” Despite his injuries, a grin slowly appeared on his face.
“…this ability is ridiculously useful.” The power of the [Horse Talisman] activated instantly.
A warm current surged throughout his body.
All of his injuries healed completely in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Sun Wuxiu clearly felt his Saiyan blood growing stronger.
This was the Saiyan racial trait.
Recovering from severe injuries resulted in explosive growth in battle power.
Just before the Great Ape’s fist descended…
Sun Wuxiu vanished.
“BOOM!!” The gigantic fist shattered the entire cliffside, sending rocks flying everywhere.
But Sun Wuxiu had already escaped.
“Whoosh!” He reappeared directly on the Great Ape’s shoulder.
Without stopping for even a second, he sprinted across the giant body at maximum speed.
The power of the [Rabbit Talisman] had been pushed completely to its limit.
The Great Ape roared furiously while wildly slapping at its own body, trying to catch the tiny figure running across it.
But Sun Wuxiu was simply too fast.
“Grandpa!
Catch me!” Sun Wuxiu suddenly leaped high from the Great Ape’s back.
“I’m ready!” Grandpa Gohan had already positioned himself below.
The moment Sun Wuxiu fell, he immediately caught him.
“ROAR!” “Now!
[Pig Talisman]!” While suspended in midair, Sun Wuxiu’s eyes suddenly erupted with dazzling crimson heat rays.
The target was the Great Ape’s eyes.
“ROOOAAARRR!!!” The Great Ape let out a miserable scream that shook the mountains.
Its eyes were one of its greatest weaknesses besides the tail.
After being struck directly by the heat vision, the Great Ape stumbled backward while covering its burning eyes in agony.
“Rumble…” The gigantic body collapsed onto the ground and crushed large sections of the surrounding forest.
“Wuxiu!
Nicely done!” Grandpa Gohan landed while holding him, his face filled with excitement.
“It’s not over yet!” The instant they touched the ground, Sun Wuxiu rushed forward again without hesitation.
“Grandpa, cover me!
We have to cut off the tail!” “Understood!” Grandpa Gohan charged ahead while wielding his staff.
With all his strength, he smashed the Golden Staff directly against the Great Ape’s head, temporarily preventing it from standing up.
At the same moment, Sun Wuxiu circled behind the fallen giant.
The enormous tail continuously lashed around instinctively across the ground.
“[Dragon Talisman]!
[Ox Talisman]!” Sun Wuxiu concentrated the power of both talismans into his right hand.
At the same time, he compressed his own ki into a high-density sphere of destructive energy.
This was a special move he had developed himself through combining martial arts and the Dragon Talisman’s explosive power.
“Dragon Blast!”
