Things were just as Son Goku had expected.
Seeing Dabura spit at him, Vegeta immediately curled his lips into a sneer.
Since this was Dabura’s only potential way to turn the tables, how could Vegeta not be on guard against it?
“I am curious, if your spit lands on yourself, will it turn you to stone as well?” Vegeta said with a sneer.
The next second.
Vegeta’s Aura condensed, and he raised his hand and fired a blast of Qi.
The Qi caught the incoming glob of spit and sent it flying straight back onto Dabura’s face!
“Da… Damn it!” Dabura wiped the phlegm from his face, glaring at Vegeta with eyes blazing with fury!
The next second, signs of petrification rapidly appeared across Dabura’s face and hands!
“Ah!
Dabura’s body… is turning to stone!” Gohan exclaimed in surprise.
Son Goku asked curiously, “Since it’s something spat out from his own mouth, why would it turn him to stone too?
Wouldn’t he have been turned to stone by his own spit long ago?” Supreme Kai explained, “What actually causes the petrification isn’t Dabura’s spit itself, but the magic contained within it.” “Before spitting, Dabura uses the saliva as a medium to conceal the petrification magic within it.
As long as a living being is touched by the saliva, the petrification magic hidden inside will immediately erupt and turn the target to stone.” “It’s not just his saliva.
Theoretically, even Dabura’s blood can serve as a medium for petrification.” “Is that so?
Then I must warn Vegeta immediately!” Son Goku looked up and saw that Dabura was already almost completely petrified.
Seeing this, Son Goku scratched his head and muttered to himself, “It seems there’s no need for that anymore.” As soon as he finished speaking, Dabura, who was hovering in the air, had already been completely petrified and fell from the sky.
Seeing this, Son Goku mumbled, “Is he dead already?
Killed by his own technique.” Supreme Kai explained, “No, not yet.
Dabura is merely faking his death.
If you approach him now, you might very well be killed by his counterattack.” “What?
He’s faking his death?
What a despicable guy.
I must warn Uncle Vegeta immediately!” Gohan hurriedly said.
“Calm down, Gohan.
Vegeta isn’t the type to underestimate his opponent.
Just watch and learn a thing or two from Vegeta while you’re at it,” Son Goku reminded him.
“Huh?” Gohan looked confused, then looked up at Vegeta, who was hovering in the air.
Vegeta looked down at the stone statue of Dabura below.
His lips curled upward as he muttered to himself, “Did you destroy yourself?
Whatever, true or false, let me give you a hand and put you out of your misery!” Vegeta raised his hand, aiming his palm at the stone statue of Dabura below.
His expression tightened as all his Aura gathered in his palm… “Big Bang Attack!” Vegeta grinned as the massive amount of energy gathered in his palm exploded, descending toward the stone statue of Dabura below!
Inside the stone statue, Dabura sensed the massive energy descending from the sky.
He cursed under his breath, hurriedly deactivated the petrification magic, and dodged Vegeta’s attack at the very last moment!
Boom!!
The Earth shook, and a crater no less impressive than the one Dabura had blasted out earlier appeared on the surface.
Seeing this, Vegeta smiled mockingly and muttered to himself, “Oh, so you were faking your death just now?
Interesting.
I didn’t expect you to have some brains after all.” Dabura flew into the air and hovered opposite Vegeta, his expression ugly.
Vegeta wore a mocking expression and taunted, “What’s wrong?
The dignified King of the Demon Realm only has these tricks?
I heard you were the strongest person in the Demon Realm, but it seems your Demon Realm isn’t much after all.” “Damn it!” Dabura clenched his fists, his face twisted with rage as he roared, “I will tear you to pieces!!” Vegeta remained unmoved, raising his hand and beckoning him over, his expression full of provocation.
Below.
Son Goku shouted a warning, “Vegeta!
That guy’s petrification ability isn’t only effective through his saliva.
Supreme Kai said that his blood can also turn people to stone, so whatever you do, don’t let it touch you!” “What?!” Vegeta was startled, but then his lips curled upward.
He looked at Dabura with disdain and said, “So that’s it.
Is this the trump card you’ve been hiding?
It’s nothing special.
Just low-class tricks.” Cold sweat broke out on Dabura’s forehead.
His trump card had been exposed.
He had originally wanted to use this technique to catch the guy opposite him off guard, but now it seemed that wouldn’t work!
Back in the Demon Realm, he had used this technique to finish off many powerful enemies.
Theoretically, everyone who knew about his trump card should already be dead.
So how did that group down there know about it?
Dabura cast a vicious glare at the three people below, his gaze eventually falling on Supreme Kai, the only one whose background he didn’t know… Dabura thought to himself: Is that the Supreme Kai?
The greatest deity in the Universe!
According to Babidi, his strength isn’t very high.
The pink guy I killed outside earlier must have been his servant.
If his strength were truly great, he shouldn’t have just watched his servant get killed by me… Thinking of this, a plan formed in Dabura’s mind.
The corners of his mouth curled upward slightly, and confidence returned to his eyes.
“What’s wrong?
Are you afraid to attack?
If that’s the case, I’m going to make my move!” Vegeta’s Aura slowly rose, and killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Dabura, however, wasn’t panicked at all.
He chuckled and said, “Earthling, I will soon let you know what the King of the Demon Realm is truly capable of!” Dabura raised his hand, energy gathering in his palm, and threw a Qi blast toward Vegeta.
Anger flashed in Vegeta’s eyes, and he slapped the incoming Qi blast away… Hum~ The purple Qi blast landed on the ground, erupting with terrifying energy and blasting another enormous crater into the Earth!
Although the power of the Qi blast was astonishing, in Vegeta’s eyes, it was about as powerful as a balloon hitting an ordinary person.
This wasn’t an attack.
It was an insult!
“You bastard…” Just as Vegeta was about to attack in anger, he was shocked to discover that Dabura, who had been standing opposite him, had disappeared… “Where did he go?” Vegeta’s gaze swept around, and he quickly caught sight of Dabura… The opponent was flying downward!
“Are you trying to escape?
Dabura!” Vegeta had just started to chase after him, but quickly stopped.
He watched Dabura charging straight toward Supreme Kai, and an absurd thought suddenly arose in his mind… That guy wouldn’t be trying to…!
Vegeta was dumbfounded.
Is this Dabura… this brave?
Below.
Son Goku watched Dabura rushing toward them, an eager expression appearing on his face.
“Is he planning to give up on Vegeta and challenge me instead?
I accept your challenge.
Come on!” Just as Son Goku struck a fighting pose, ready to take on Dabura, Dabura ignored him completely and charged straight toward Supreme Kai!
Seeing this, Gohan was shocked and called out, “Oh no!
His target is Supreme Kai!” “Hahaha!
Supreme Kai, prepare to die!” Dabura laughed wildly, his energy gathering throughout his body.
He prepared to capture Supreme Kai and use him to threaten Son Goku and the others!
