Above Snake Way, Talot only came to a stop after distancing himself nearly a hundred kilometers from North Kai's Planet.
Raditz and Salari also quickly steadied themselves right behind him.
After days of restraint, their itch for battle had reached an unbearable level.
"Come, let me see what level your strength has reached after your potential was drawn out by the Ultra Divine Water."
Just as Talot finished speaking, the battle erupted.
Salari and Raditz had been prepared for this and gave Talot no chance to react. Launching a surprise attack, they struck from the left and right, forming a pincer movement and unleashing a powerful blow.
'Bang!!!'
'Boom!!!'
Two thunderous impacts rang out simultaneously.
Salari and Raditz's joint attack was caught by Talot in the nick of time.
"Once again, I underestimated you. But just now, you should've used Kaio-ken to boost your power, only then might you have had a chance to defeat me in one blow." As he spoke, Talot's expression sharpened. He instantly exerted strength, swinging both hands.
An overwhelming surge of power engulfed Salari and Raditz, sending both of them flying.
This outcome had already been anticipated by Salari and Raditz.
They knew that in their base form, they stood no chance of gaining the upper hand, so they had already planned their next move.
After gliding dozens of meters through the air, they used the momentum to close the distance between them. Then, with graceful turns, they stabilized themselves by unleashing their aura.
At the same time, their ultimate techniques began to charge.
"Purple Light Cannon!!"
"Begone!!"
Salari and Raditz unleashed their attacks simultaneously. The two energies fused into one, transforming into Begone Purple Cannon, its destructive power rising to an entirely new level as it surged toward Talot.
Sensing the destructive force contained within the fused Begone Purple Cannon, Talot showed a hint of interest. At the same time, his aura erupted, forming an invisible barrier that enveloped him.
'BOOM~~!!!!!!' The flames of the explosion continued to spread, and thick smoke filled the air.
"We hit him!" Raditz exclaimed with excitement. The fused Begone Purple Cannon had elevated their destructive power to a whole new level. Without transforming, Talot was bound to feel the pressure.
"Don't let your guard down! Brother Talot won't be hurt by an attack of this level so easily." Salari stood at the ready, not daring to relax in the slightest.
Personal relationships are one thing; battle is another.
After their last fight, Talot had given her a serious lecture.
He made her understand that just because someone is family or a close friend doesn't mean you can hold back.
On the contrary, the closer the relationship, the more seriously you should fight.
When the smoke cleared, the result was just as Salari had expected.
Even with their fused ultimate technique, the Begone Purple Cannon, they were still unable to deal any real damage to Talot, much less suppress him.
"The destructive power of this fused ultimate technique is indeed remarkable. The shield I formed with nearly all my power was shattered," Talot praised.
Seeing Talot completely unscathed, Raditz and Salari exchanged a glance.
They had no intention of talking to Talot, as under the current circumstances, there was no need to waste words.
"2x Kaio-ken!!" Raditz was the first to erupt, unleashing 2x Kaio-ken, causing his power level to surge to 2.4 million.
"2x Kaio-ken!!" Salari followed suit, her power level swelling to 2.6 million.
Their auras clashed and surged toward Talot.
Feeling the massive pressure coming straight at him, Talot grinned and focused.
"Bring it on!! Talot!!"
"Brother Talot, watch out!"
Raditz and Salari shouted in unison as they launched themselves forward, transforming into streaks of crimson light charging directly at Talot.
"Good! That's the kind of fearless resolve I want to see." Talot showed no fear at all and exploded forward with his aura.
'BOOM!!!!!!!' The moment the three clashed, a blinding light erupted, and the fierce battle began.
Salari and Raditz, attacking from left and right, launched a continuous barrage of powerful punches and kicks at Talot.
Their assault was fierce and aggressive, with a speed like lightning. Working together, they elevated the strength of their attacks to an entirely new level.
Faced with their combined assault, Talot, even while maintaining the same power level, still felt immense pressure. Despite relying on his superior combat experience and advanced combat techniques, he nearly failed to withstand their attacks.
Salari and Raditz's coordinated attacks were much stronger than in their previous battle.
This made Talot realize that while he was improving, they were also continuously growing stronger.
"Your power and speed are solid, but you've overlooked one thing. During a battle, you can't just focus on offense." Talot smiled calmly, intending to change his fighting strategy.
He used high-speed movement to vanish from sight, reappearing behind Raditz.
With his palm pressed against Raditz's back, a sudden burst of aura exploded into a powerful shockwave. The overwhelming force sent Raditz crashing down uncontrollably onto Snake Way.
"Not that easy! Brother Talot." Salari, having keenly sensed Talot's position, reacted the moment she saw Raditz being knocked away. She unleashed a full-force kick in a horizontal arc.
'Bang!!!' A heavy thud echoed out.
Salari's all-out attack was blocked by Talot with a single hand, but the terrifying power behind the strike caused Talot to tremble slightly.
Her powerful blow blocked, Salari gritted her teeth and withdrew her right leg, launching a storm of fierce attacks like a raging tempest.
'Bang! Boom! Bang! Boom! …'
Their limbs clashed continuously, each strike producing shockwaves that rippled through the air.
The immense force shook the space for dozens of kilometers around them, even causing Snake Way itself to tremble. The yellow clouds, separating Heaven and Hell, surged violently due to the sheer power being unleashed.
After fending off several of her waves of attacks, Talot shifted from defense to offense and launched a counterattack.
"Kiai Cannon!!" Talot thrust both hands forward.
The powerful shockwave struck Salari's stomach, causing her retreat for more than a hundred meters.
Feeling the sharp pain in her abdomen, Salari frowned slightly. She knew he had held back.
If that Kiai Cannon had been serious, it could've shattered her bones in a single blow; at the very least, she would've coughed up blood.
Unconsciously, warmth filled her heart. Salari's feelings for Talot grew even deeper.
