"Oh ho ho ho ho ho!!!!!!"
Dashing forward, Dabura erupted with energy and launched a relentless assault on Vegea.
Boom! Boom! Boom!—in an instant, he unleashed a thousand punches onto Vegea's body before springing back, forming a ki blast in his hand and hurling it at her.
With a deafening explosion, Vegea was engulfed in a surge of violent energy, and a massive fireball erupted in the void.
"Well done, Dabura! Well done!"
Seeing Dabura seize the advantage in a flash, Babidi cheered loudly, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction.
At the same time, Dabura floated in midair with a look of disdain.
"Hmph, I thought she'd be a tough opponent, but she was so overwhelmed by my presence that she didn't even dare to fight back."
He scoffed.
With such a fierce attack, that woman—Vegea—should at least be half-dead, if not completely finished!
"That guy… does he really think he's taken down Her Highness just like that?"
Hearing Dabura's words, Celipa twitched at the corner of her mouth as she watched from the sidelines.
"Well, well, isn't it amusing to watch these weak little reptiles basking in their own arrogance?"
Floating beside Celipa with arms crossed, Sharuru smirked.
Unlike Babidi and Dabura, Celipa and Sharuru knew that Vegea had simply been too lazy to counterattack. Moreover, even after taking Dabura's attacks, her energy hadn't weakened in the slightest.
Sure enough, as the smoke and fire dissipated, Vegea's unharmed figure was revealed once again.
"Im… Impossible! Why is that woman still alive?!"
Babidi's eyes nearly popped out of his skull, and Dabura was just as stunned.
He could understand that Vegea hadn't died, but for her to emerge without even a single scratch—was this some kind of sick joke?!
Crack! Crack!Crack crack crack!
Rolling her neck, Vegea coldly curled her fingers at Dabura.
"Come at me with everything you've got. Take this seriously!"
As the Demon King who ruled the Demon Realm, Dabura had never suffered such provocation and humiliation. His blood boiled, and fury exploded within him.
"Die, woman!"
Releasing his full power, Dabura charged at Vegea once more.
Fist after fist, kick after kick—this time, Dabura held nothing back, and the sky resounded with an endless barrage of impacts.
Yet to his growing horror, no matter how fiercely he attacked, Vegea effortlessly blocked each strike!
"You monster of a woman!"
A woman was supposed to be a man's servant, a plaything—yet this was the first time Dabura had encountered such a terrifyingly powerful one. Roaring in anger, he widened the gap between them and inhaled deeply before spewing forth a massive torrent of flames.
As the ruler of the Demon Realm, Dabura didn't just possess formidable combat strength—he also wielded mysterious magic. His flame breath was one of his deadly techniques.
Dabura's flames weren't ordinary; they could more accurately be called demonic flames—extremely fierce and scorching, capable of melting steel with ease. Throughout his life, he had incinerated countless foes with this attack.
But once again, to his utter disbelief, it was useless. His flames did nothing!
"I told you—use your full power and take this seriously!"
Vegea's face was ice-cold as she charged through the flames toward him.
Dabura's flames were indeed dangerous, but the energy barrier surrounding Vegea effortlessly repelled them, leaving her completely unscathed.
Her speed was terrifying—Dabura had no time to react as her fist struck him square in the chest.
"AHHHH!!!"
His back arched grotesquely as he let out a pained scream, sent hurtling through the air. Meanwhile, his mind seethed with humiliation and rage—
Damn it, woman! I'm already going all out here!
But Vegea wasn't done. She pursued him relentlessly, kicking and striking him through the sky, while Dabura could only let out pitiful screams, unable to fight back.
Despite being the Demon King of the Demon Realm, Dabura's power was, at best, comparable to Celipa's current strength. Against Vegea, who had already advanced to Super Saiyan 3, he was nothing more than a punching bag.
"Dabura! What the hell are you doing?!"
"Fight back! Hurry up and fight back!"
Babidi raged from the sidelines, while Dabura himself knew that if he didn't retaliate soon, he'd be beaten to death.
Summoning all his strength, he barely managed to block another one of Vegea's attacks before contorting his face in a vicious grin and spitting toward her—
"Turn to stone!"
This was another of Dabura's abilities: anything struck by his saliva would immediately turn to stone.
Dabura had to admit—Vegea was powerful, terrifyingly so. But what did it matter? The moment she was petrified, she'd be at his mercy!
But alas, reality was cruel.
Dodging his spit was effortless for Vegea.
Seriously? He spat at her? What is this, a joke?
"You got any last words?"
Vegea's expression turned completely black, as if a storm were brewing on her face.
She had fought countless powerful enemies before, but never had she encountered someone so disgustingly low.
Spitting at her?
Did he actually think that would work, or was he just trying to gross her out?
"D-Damn it! I am the Demon King, Dabura! This is not over!"
Clutching his injuries, Dabura growled in frustration.
"If that's all you've got—then die."
Disappointed beyond belief, Vegea felt no thrill from this battle. Instead, she was just thoroughly disgusted.
Raising her palm, she gathered energy and unleashed thousands of ki blasts at him.
Dabura's scalp tingled with fear as he desperately tried to dodge, but it was futile—no matter how he fled, Vegea's ki blasts followed him relentlessly. The sheer number of projectiles increased rapidly until there was nowhere left to escape.
With horror in his eyes, Dabura watched as the countless ki blasts rained down upon him.
"NOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
