Chapter 158: Kale's Battle
Whoosh!
The moment Turles's figure appeared at the Supreme Kai Realm, before he could even react, his hand loosened. A figure flashed rapidly before his eyes.
"Sister!"
Kale had already grabbed Caulifla's hand, the two spinning in excited circles.
Though they'd only been apart a few days, watching them made it seem like they'd been separated for ages.
Despite knowing their sisterly bond ran deep, Turles still couldn't quite understand. He shook his head with a wry smile.
"Turles, are you really having Kale do this?"
At that moment, Carrit approached. After glancing at the excited sisters, he withdrew his gaze and asked Turles with concern.
Hearing Carrit's question, Cabba also looked toward Turles worriedly.
Regarding Carrit's question, Turles's mouth curved upward in a confident smile as he comforted them: "Relax. Since I'm having Kale go, I'll naturally ensure her safety. Besides, you should have some faith in her. After all, she's the Legendary Super Saiyan!"
After speaking, Turles even raised his eyebrows meaningfully at them.
Hearing Turles say this, much of their worry subsided.
Actually, their concern was understandable.
Though they already knew Kale was the Legendary Super Saiyan, possessing top-tier talent rivaling Broly's—meaning that among the Saiyans present, purely in terms of bloodline gifts, Kale could be considered the strongest, even surpassing Turles—
Kale had previously always been a wallflower existence. Her personality was extremely timid, not resembling a Saiyan at all.
She was fortunate to be born on Planet Sadala. If she'd been a Saiyan on the old Planet Vegeta, she'd probably have been bullied to death long ago.
Of course, given Kale's special physiology, if she really were bullied too severely, the bullies probably wouldn't have fared well either.
While Carrit's group worried about Kale, Caulifla was currently working on her little sister.
"Kale!"
After comforting her little sister, Caulifla pulled Kale before her, staring seriously into her eyes.
"Sister?"
Kale hadn't yet recovered from reuniting with her sister. The blush on her small face hadn't faded. Seeing Caulifla like this, she felt somewhat confused.
"Uh!"
Looking at Kale's innocent expression, Caulifla—who'd been about to say something—immediately choked. The seriousness on her face couldn't be maintained.
Awkwardly scratching her cheek, Caulifla could only laugh embarrassedly before remembering what she wanted to say and continuing:
"Kale, I need you to fight an evil enemy. When the time comes, you must beat that guy into the ground using what I taught you!"
While speaking, Caulifla waved her fists as if an opponent stood before her. Fighting spirit involuntarily flooded her face.
But hearing Caulifla say this, Kale was startled. Flustered, she waved her hands: "Sister, I... I can't do it!" Before she'd even finished speaking, her voice already carried a crying tone.
"..."
Seeing Kale's panicked appearance, even Caulifla—who knew her personality—felt somewhat speechless.
Speaking of which, she envied Kale. Being able to fight an equally matched opponent was the most wonderful thing in the world to Caulifla. Encountering such an opportunity, she'd be thrilled—she'd never avoid it like the plague as Kale did.
But Turles had already explained Six-Star Dragon's peculiarity. If it were just mind reading, even if she couldn't win, Turles would have agreed to let her fight.
But adding mind control, Turles absolutely wouldn't agree. After all, Turles didn't want to have to fight Caulifla's group before even facing the enemy.
Looking at Kale, who'd already started crying, Caulifla rubbed her head in frustration.
"Kale, this time your sister needs your help. So do you want to help your sister?"
Just as Caulifla was thinking how to persuade Kale, Turles's voice rang out.
Hearing Turles's words, Caulifla's lips pursed, about to object—but Kale had already opened her tear-filled eyes: "Sister, is that true?"
"Mm!"
Watching the unhidden expectation in Kale's eyes, Caulifla opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Turles's words definitely weren't right. If possible, she'd want nothing more than to replace Kale in battle. But being stared at by Kale, she couldn't bring herself to say it. She could only nod vaguely.
Seeing Caulifla nod, joy flashed through Kale's eyes. She immediately declared solemnly to Caulifla: "Sister, don't worry! I'll definitely help you deal with that bad guy!"
After speaking, Kale looked at Caulifla with shining eyes, unable to suppress her smile.
"That's great—I can help Sister too!"
Seeing this, Turles watched the two with a smile, completely ignoring Caulifla's pouting expression.
After Kale calmed her emotions, he continued: "Kale, your opponent this time is a special enemy. So I'll place you in a special state. What you'll need to do then is exactly what your sister said—beat that bad guy thoroughly!"
While speaking, Turles gave Caulifla a meaningful look.
Receiving Turles's signal, though extremely unwilling, Caulifla still nodded: "Right, Kale. You'll beat that bad guy for Sister."
Having been self-conscious and sensitive since childhood, Kale naturally noticed Caulifla's reluctance. Though her heart felt somewhat pained, this was the first time her sister had needed her help. So after apologizing mentally, Kale straightened her small face and nodded solemnly to Turles:
"Okay, Brother Turles! I'll listen to you!"
Hearing this "brother," Turles froze. Looking at Kale's solemn expression, he smiled knowingly: "Then we're counting on you, Kale. I believe your sister is also very happy you can help her!"
"Is... is that so?!"
After Turles said this, Kale actually became less confident. Her small face flushed with two red tints. After stealing a glance at Caulifla, she stammered a response.
Though she said nothing else, Turles could tell Kale's mood was pretty good right now.
On an unnamed planet, Turles and Caulifla's group suddenly appeared in a desolate area.
After sensing nearby auras and confirming no one else was present, Turles's group descended atop a small mountain.
"Kale, are you ready?"
"I'm... ready, I'm... ready..."
Watching Kale nervously wring her fingers, her small face tense, Turles felt somewhat helpless.
Who could have imagined—this was a Saiyan possessing the Legendary Super Saiyan physiology? Even Broly initially hadn't been this timid.
Actually, Turles had considered returning to Universe 7 to bring Broly over to handle Six-Star Dragon.
But when he raised this idea, not only Carrit's group but even Fuwa wore expressions of refusal.
Broly's initial rampage had been too terrifying. They still carried psychological scars.
Though Turles's strength had grown, no one could guarantee he could easily subdue Broly. They'd heard Turles mention that after returning to Universe 7, Broly's battle power had increased again.
After thinking it over, Turles also felt their concerns were reasonable.
Though Turles could now independently transform into Super Saiyan God form and had begun integrating it into his base state, facing Broly, Turles truly didn't dare guarantee he could suppress him.
You had to know—in the original story when Broly appeared, his battle power hadn't been this strong. Yet he'd still completely dominated Super Saiyan God Goku and Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta. Only their fusion had finally suppressed him.
So after just brief consideration, Turles abandoned the idea of having Broly fight.
Withdrawing his thoughts, Turles nodded to Carrit's group.
Seeing Turles nod, Carrit and the others looked at Kale, then tacitly rose into the air, distancing themselves from the two.
They wouldn't be participating in the upcoming battle. If berserk Kale locked onto them, they'd have nowhere to cry.
Only after the group had left quite a distance did Turles turn his attention to Kale. Seeing her still nervous, he quickly comforted: "Relax, nothing will go wrong!"
Though receiving Turles's comfort, Kale didn't relax at all. Instead, she grew more tense. Watching Caulifla's departing back, she suddenly felt regret.
Pursing her lips, forcibly holding back tears that wanted to fall, Kale finally nodded to Turles with a going-for-broke expression, her small face tight: "Brother Turles, I'm... ready!"
"Pfft!"
Turles looked at Kale's adorable appearance and really couldn't help himself.
"Brother Turles!"
Turles's laughter made Kale unable to hold on. Her face instantly flushed bright red as she glared at him in embarrassment.
"Okay, okay, I'll stop laughing!"
Turles knew Kale's heart was rather sensitive. Seeing her embarrassment, he quickly suppressed his smile and grew serious.
Seeing Turles turn serious, much of the embarrassment faded from Kale's face. Her heart began feeling anxious again.
Turles first sensed Six-Star Dragon's aura location. Seeing it hadn't moved at all, he extended his finger toward Kale's forehead.
Though Turles had already explained his method earlier, when he actually began acting, Kale's heart still felt uneasy. Watching Turles's finger, she couldn't help wanting to retreat.
But Turles seemed to have anticipated Kale's thoughts. Before she could react, his finger—seemingly slow but actually fast—touched her forehead.
Kale only felt a chill at her forehead, then something like an explosion occurred in her mind. The next second, an intense violent sensation surged up.
"GRAHHH!"
An inhuman roar emerged from Kale's mouth. Then her eyes rolled back white as tremendous aura exploded from her body.
Turles naturally expected this. So he simply watched the now-enraged Kale with a calm expression, waiting for her aura to rise.
And the Legendary Super Saiyan truly lived up to its name. Soon, Kale's aura had already risen to Super Saiyan 1 level—and continued climbing.
"Looks like after that exchange with Broly, Kale also gained considerable benefits!"
Turles stroked his chin, this thought flashing through his mind.
Logically speaking, the finger Turles had just pressed to her forehead sent simulated images into Kale's mind. With Kale's jealousy, just seeing these images would definitely make her lose control.
But Turles could sense that though Kale's current aura was in a berserk state, compared to Broly's rampage, it was obviously much calmer. At minimum, the violence within was considerably reduced.
Suddenly, the aura in Turles's senses began moving. This made the corners of Turles's mouth slowly curve upward.
Seeing Kale still needed more time to raise her aura to Six-Star Dragon's level, Turles's body began slowly ascending.
After rising to a certain height, Turles suddenly shouted loudly, then also began raising his own aura.
"Ha!"
Compared to Kale, Turles's control over his aura was far superior. In just an instant, his aura had already risen.
Then he directly activated Super Saiyan 2 form.
Due to Super Saiyan God divine power's integration, Turles's current base battle power had reached over fifty million. This was with Turles suppressing it, not wanting his ki control to deteriorate—otherwise his improvement would be even greater.
No helping it—Super Saiyan God already represented a higher life level. Divine power's enhancement of the physical body was tremendously significant. And physical improvement also drove aura increases.
So after transforming into Super Saiyan 2, Turles's current battle power had reached three billion.
So after Turles completed his transformation, he could clearly sense Six-Star Dragon—which had been rapidly approaching—directly stop.
Turles's mouth curved slightly. Then his aura suddenly dropped, instantly concealing itself completely again.
Glancing at Kale, whose aura had nearly finished rising, Turles—before she could shift attention to him—directly activated Instant Transmission and vanished.
The next moment, his figure appeared beside Carrit's group. Divine power emanated from his body, beginning to shroud everyone's auras.
Soon, everyone's presence completely disappeared from Six-Star Dragon's perception.
This was a small technique of Turles's. Though Six-Star Dragon's abilities were peculiar, it hadn't reached god realm—it couldn't sense divine power auras.
Turles's speed was simply too fast. Only after he'd finished everything did Carrit's group react.
"Boss Turles, is Kale alright?"
Caulifla cared very much about her little sister Kale. She immediately asked Turles urgently about Kale's condition.
Sensing Six-Star Dragon's aura moving toward Kale again, Turles relaxed and comforted Caulifla:
"She's fine. She's doing great!"
After speaking, Turles looked toward the distance.
This location was deliberately chosen—not far from Kale. They'd be able to clearly watch Kale's battle soon.
And soon, Six-Star Dragon's figure appeared in everyone's vision. They quickly restrained their gazes, avoiding eye contact with Six-Star Dragon, only observing peripherally.
At this moment, Kale's aura also stopped rising. The great battle was about to begin!
