Vegeta sneered, and an even stronger golden aura erupted around him. The ground trembled beneath his power.
"You arrogant fatty! Let me show you the true strength of the Saiyan prince!"
He charged at Buu, his fists blasting out like a violent storm.
Bang, bang, bang, bang—!
Vegeta seemed to be taking out his anger toward Son Goku on Majin Buu.
However, Buu simply stood there, letting Vegeta's fists land on his body. An innocent smile remained on his face.
"Hehe, it doesn't hurt. It doesn't hurt at all~"
Vegeta's pupils shrank.
"What?!"
Buu suddenly reached out and grabbed Vegeta by the face, lifting him up as though squeezing a rubber ball.
"Now it's Buu's turn!"
Boom!
Buu slammed Vegeta into the ground, creating a huge crater.
"Gah!"
Vegeta spat out a mouthful of blood and struggled to climb back up.
Son Goku hurriedly shouted, "Buu! Don't kill anyone!"
Buu turned back and blinked.
"Oh! Okay, Mr. Goku!"
Vegeta flew into a rage.
"Don't look down on me!"
He condensed dazzling golden light in one hand and roared,
"Big Bang Attack!"
A violent energy wave instantly swallowed Buu. The entire beach was blasted into a massive pit, and the shockwave sent the waves surging dozens of meters high.
Everyone sucked in a cold breath at the sight.
Bulma put her hands on her hips.
"Is that guy trying to tear down my vacation estate? Damn it!"
When the smoke cleared, Buu stood in place completely unharmed. He even yawned.
"Hmm… a little warm."
"Impossible!"
Seeing Buu unscathed, and that yawn full of mockery, Vegeta took a step back in disbelief.
Buu suddenly grinned. His body stretched like clay, and he appeared in front of Vegeta in an instant.
Snap!
He lightly flicked Vegeta's forehead.
Boom—!
Vegeta flew backward like a cannonball, smashing through several mountains before finally stopping.
Everyone was stunned.
Goten opened his mouth wide and exclaimed, "Wow… Buu is so strong!"
Hongrui clapped excitedly.
"I didn't expect you to be this amazing! You're way stronger than us!"
Buu smiled modestly.
"Hehehe, not really, not really. Mainly, he's just too weak. Buu didn't use any strength at all…"
"He didn't use any strength? Good heavens, that's hard to imagine…"
Vegeta crawled out from the rubble, covered in injuries, but the fighting spirit in his eyes burned even hotter.
"Damn it. In that case, don't blame me for not holding back…!"
He brought his hands together and condensed a huge energy sphere. The entire sky was dyed golden.
"Galick Gun!"
Everyone wanted to stop Vegeta, but when they saw that Goku was still calmly watching the fight, seemingly confident, the others did not panic either.
The massive energy sphere smashed toward Buu.
However, Buu did not dodge. Instead, he opened his mouth and inhaled forcefully.
Like a storm being sucked in, that energy was actually swallowed by him with a gulp.
Buu patted his stomach and burped.
"Burp! Tastes pretty good!"
Vegeta was completely dumbfounded.
"This… this is impossible…"
Buu bounced over with a cheerful smile.
"Are you done hitting? Now it's Buu's turn!"
Just now, Vegeta had attacked Buu without any mercy, so Goku could not exactly take sides. That would not be fair.
Besides, letting Vegeta understand how powerful Majin Buu was now would also save him from doing something stupid in the future.
Majin Buu grabbed Vegeta by the leg, swung him around several times, then let go.
Whoosh!
Vegeta flew away.
"Ahhhhhhh—!"
Vegeta was thrown into the sky and turned into a shining star.
A few seconds later, a thunderous boom came from far away.
Everyone: "…"
Son Goku wiped away his sweat.
"Good thing Buu held back…"
Supreme Kai and Kibito arrived at the scene. When they saw this, their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.
"Vegeta was actually toyed with like a plaything?!"
Piccolo crossed his arms and snorted coldly.
"Hmph. He's always been this stubborn and arrogant. He brought it on himself."
Buu clapped his hands and looked at Goten and Hongrui with a smile.
"Alright! Let's keep playing!"
Goten and Hongrui cheered.
"Yay!"
Vegeta crawled out from the ruins, blood leaking from the corner of his mouth. His golden aura fluctuated violently from his fury.
He glared at Buu, unwilling rage burning in his eyes.
"Damn it… a mere fatty dares to humiliate me like this?!"
Son Goku sighed and used Instant Transmission to appear beside him.
He said quietly, "Vegeta, that's enough. Buu has no malice right now. Don't push him."
Vegeta violently shook off Goku's hand and roared,
"Shut up, Kakarot!
You're always like this, self-righteously deciding things for others!"
His energy surged again. Within the golden light, faint purple lightning flickered.
"If ordinary attacks don't work… then I'll use this!"
Vegeta spread his arms. Two masses of energy mixed with lightning rapidly gathered.
The veins on his forehead bulged from the strain.
"What?"
Son Goku's expression changed drastically, and he tried to stop him.
"Vegeta, stop!"
But it was already too late.
Vegeta's aura expanded explosively. Violent energy compressed wildly in his palms, and the surrounding air warped from the intense heat.
Buu tilted his head, seeming to finally become serious.
"Hmm… this one seems a little strong…"
He finally took a serious stance, preparing to receive Vegeta's ultimate attack.
Seeing Majin Buu ready to take the attack head-on, a dangerous smile appeared on Vegeta's face.
"Final Flash!"
With Vegeta's furious roar, the strongest energy he had gathered blasted out.
Boom—!
An earth-shaking explosion swept across the entire beach. The shockwave even caused the distant mountain range to collapse.
Smoke and dust rose into the sky, blotting out the sun.
Supreme Kai and Kibito's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
They had not expected Vegeta to be able to unleash such a powerful technique.
The smoke slowly dispersed.
Buu stood in place. His body had been blasted full of dents and pits.
But very soon, his flesh wriggled like clay and rapidly returned to normal.
Buu smiled.
"Phew… that move just now wasn't bad. It actually made Buu feel a little pain…"
As for Vegeta, his whole body had gone weak. He lay half-dead in the deep pit, without even the strength to stand.
Buu walked over, lowered his head, looked at him, and scratched his head.
"Why did you fight so desperately? Although Buu doesn't like you, Buu wouldn't kill you!"
Vegeta coughed out a mouthful of blood and gritted his teeth.
"Stop pretending to be kind… cough, cough…"
Buu smiled.
"Let me tell you, you're actually a pretty strong guy too.
But Buu has always been the strongest. You can't beat Buu!"
Vegeta stared at him.
Although Buu's words were somewhat arrogant, Vegeta had no way to refute them.
And because Buu looked so simple and foolish, the fact that he still admitted Vegeta was a strong guy actually made Vegeta feel slightly better.
At that moment, Buu crouched down and placed his hand on Vegeta.
Pink energy surged.
To everyone's surprise, Vegeta's injuries were instantly healed.
"All better!"
Buu stood up, turned back toward Goten and Hongrui, and said,
"Let's keep playing!"
Supreme Kai was so shocked that he could barely speak.
"Majin Buu… actually took the initiative to save someone?"
Yajirobe said, "What do you mean, 'actually'? Buu isn't a bad person. He saved me just now too…"
Kibito and Supreme Kai both looked at Yajirobe.
Yajirobe blinked.
"Did I say something wrong?"
