Chapter 123: Simplified Version of Ultra Instinct Part 1
"Frieza, it's time you paid for your crimes."
Amidst the roar.
With enough power to shatter stars, Piccolo's heavy punch was unleashed, carrying with it the immense anger of the Namekians towards the invader.
At this moment, Piccolo was not just representing himself but the entire Namekian race.
A resounding 'boom!!!!!!' echoed.
Frieza's arm blocked Piccolo's fist.
At thirty percent power, Frieza's strength was formidable.
In terms of pure numbers, he was above Piccolo.
"Did you think you could defeat me with such limited power? You're delusional, Namekian." Piccolo's arrogance revealed Frieza's true face.
An extraordinary battle ensued.
In terms of actual combat power, Piccolo had reached unprecedented heights.
Using his combat skills, body, and will hone through long-term training in the gravity chamber, Piccolo's displayed strength far exceeded his numerical level, even to the point of suppressing Frieza, who was using thirty percent of his power.
Of course, despite this, Frieza would not be entirely passive.
Even though he had never trained seriously or fought earnestly from birth until now, Frieza's inherited power was not fake.
He didn't need to train hard to become stronger because his stable power level after birth was already at the emperor of the universe level.
As fists and feet collided, countless ripples erupted in the space around them.
The speed was so fast that even Goku and Raditz, with power levels in the millions, had difficulty keeping up.
Others could only rely on sensing the energy to capture the movements as best as they could.
The continuous sound of air explosions was terrifying.
As the battle progressed, Frieza realized that his repeated holding back was a mistake.
Because of his repeated leniency, these ants became increasingly troublesome, even embarrassing him as the emperor of the universe.
Affected by his emotions, Frieza's counterattacks grew more intense.
Facing Piccolo's punches and kicks, Frieza also displayed his exceptional combat abilities.
Both were geniuses with terrifying potential, capable of challenging opponents beyond their level.
It could be said that Frieza's talent far surpassed Piccolo's.
After all, in the original series, after being resurrected, Frieza reached the height of the seventh dimension with just a few months of training, even achieving a higher transformation, the Golden Form.
Even though this included over ten years of accumulation in hell, this burst of power far exceeded any existing being.
And this was just the beginning of the super era. Later, Frieza even achieved the Black Gold Form.
Coming in, he suppressed everything powerfully. Granola, Gas, they were nothing.
Accurately speaking, Black Gold Frieza's strength was such that he could defeat Ultra Instinct Goku with one punch and Ultra Ego Vegeta with one kick.
Of course, that was a performance from later.
Currently, Frieza could not break through due to emotional fluctuations and power surges.
At this time, Frieza had no thoughts of achieving a higher Golden Form.
'Bang!!! Bam!!! Boom!!! Pang!!! Bang!!!...'
Intense clashes continued to occur.
Amidst high-speed movements, Piccolo and Frieza turned into two rays of extreme light, sometimes soaring into the sky, sometimes landing on an island, sometimes diving into the sea, and sometimes returning to the sky.
With Planet Namek as the battlefield, neither of them held back in their current state.
...
Meanwhile, on King Kai's Planet.
Watching the battle escalate repeatedly and seeing his disciples suffer defeat after defeat.
King Kai, who initially had some hope that Goku and Raditz could defeat Frieza, now placed his hope back on Lin Chuan.
Piccolo is strong!
But King Kai deeply understood the terror of Final Form Frieza.
This battle has only just begun.
If Piccolo didn't have more substantial means, the result would undoubtedly be a brutal defeat.
"Grand Elder, Grand Elder, since you predicted the outcome, why didn't you arrange for more Namekians to fuse with Piccolo? Even though the remaining Namekians might not be as powerful as Nail, if they fused, Piccolo might surpass Frieza."
"Then, once Frieza is defeated, they could use the Dragon Balls to wish the fused Namekians back to life."
King Kai continually voiced his thoughts.
Unfortunately, he couldn't intervene in this event.
Otherwise, it would be seen as him openly assisting others in killing Frieza.
He feared retribution from Beerus the Destroyer, as Frieza was the proxy during Beerus's slumber.
If he helped others eliminate Frieza, it would mean going against Beerus, and Beerus would come looking for him.
"Lin Chuan, Lin Chuan, it's about time you acted, right? Everyone's strength has increased due to Frieza, which should be part of your plan, right?" King Kai shifted his gaze to Lin Chuan.
Although it had only been a little over a month since he had truly got to know Lin Chuan, he had already understood what kind of person Lin Chuan was.
...
On Planet Namek.
As Piccolo's suppression grew stronger, Frieza unconsciously used forty percent of his power.
Forty-eight million power level!
Against those with a mere thirty million power level, they couldn't withstand it.
But after the fusion, Piccolo clearly dug out more of his body's latent power, growing stronger with each fight.
Although Nail couldn't completely compensate for what Piccolo lacked, he succeeded to some extent.
"It ends now! Take this, Frieza!" Unable to gain an advantage with physical attacks and unable to defeat Frieza, the pressure mounted, and Piccolo decided not to waste more time.
Charging a massive attack, he gathered terrifying energy during the battle and unleashed it directly.
Facing this blow, Frieza clearly felt the threat.
In the next moment, he used all his strength to maintain his body, raising his hand to block Piccolo's Super Explosive Demon Wave.
This scene was incredibly shocking.
But Frieza directly blocked the energy with his body.
Just like in the original series, Frieza blocked Goku's Kamehameha with a Kaio-ken x20.
"What?!" His full-strength attack was blocked, and Piccolo felt a deep sense of unwillingness.
Immediately, he gritted his teeth and released energy beyond his limits.
At this point, there was no retreat.
Feeling the increasing scorching heat in his hands, Frieza dared not be complacent.
He gritted his teeth, and the energy inside his body rapidly circulated.
In the next second, while blocking, his palm unleashed a terrifying energy blast.
'Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!'
A super explosion of extreme horror erupted in the sky.
A terrifying storm swept across hundreds of miles.
The aftermath seemed capable of destroying everything.
Flames and smoke filled the sky, enveloping Frieza's figure.
Invisible, but everyone knew Frieza was fine!
Not only did his energy not weaken, but it became even more vital.
...
At the edge of the battlefield.
The Z Fighters gasped.
Goku and Raditz clenched their fists and gritted their teeth.
"Damn! Even with Piccolo being this strong, he's still no match for Frieza?!" Raditz questioned everything.
At this moment, he felt like he was just a frog at the bottom of a well.
Frieza was the strongest being outside the well, looking down on the weak him.
"Even with the 10x Kaioken, I might not be as strong as Piccolo..." Goku murmured to himself.
Although his power had significantly increased after recovering from his severe injuries, he still couldn't intervene in this battle.
Unless he used a higher multiplier of the Kaioken, like the 20x...
But with the 20x Kaioken, his body definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it. He could only use it for a short period, and a few attacks would be his limit.
"Even Goku and Raditz can't intervene... We are even more useless." Krillin was full of worry, feeling extreme fear in his heart.
At this moment, he no longer had the excitement he felt when his power had initially increased.
The gap was too big.
"So, we're just hoping that Piccolo has something left in reserve to defeat Frieza?" Tien Shinhan tried to calm himself, but he found it hard to remain composed.
He had been striving to get stronger, always chasing.
