The most courageous pirate hunter

Trunks's hair turned golden, and a large amount of golden flames burned as he transformed into a Super Saiyan, his aura indeed a level stronger than before.

This gave Trunks the illusion that he could beat up Hermes.

But reality is exceptionally cruel.

Hermes did not use time stop; he simply sidestepped Trunks's punch as it came, dodging it while simultaneously delivering a light, penetrating blow deep into Trunks's abdomen.

The punch made Trunks gag, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets. He clutched his stomach, took a few steps forward, and finally knelt on the ground, coughing up blood with a ferocious expression.

how is this possible.

Another punch.

I've become so powerful.

"Ahhh!"

Trunks, slightly out of breath and unable to accept the fact, forced himself to stand up despite his discomfort, and with a roar, his muscles began to bulge.

The golden aura also surged.

Compared to just now.

Trunks' aura has become even stronger, far exceeding that of a normal Super Saiyan. He has undergone a minor transformation on top of his normal Super Saiyan form, sacrificing speed for even greater power.

This state was originally achieved through training with Vegeta in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, and it first appeared in the Cell Saga, but it had too many flaws.

Both Vegeta and Goku achieved this transformation, but it was abandoned later due to its significant flaws.

The most perfect state of Super Saiyan 1 is still its normal state, which is full power.

Having been killed twice by Hermes before, and then Hermes using the Namekian Elder's unique ability to unleash potential, Trunks achieved this transformation much faster than in the original story.

Unleashing potential is an ability Hermes copied from the Namekian Elder, and it is incredibly powerful.

Hermes initially intended to have the Grand Elder bring out his potential, but at that time he had not yet reached the limit of Super Saiyan 1, so he temporarily gave up.

His idea was to reach his limit and then unleash his inner potential to see if he could break through to Super Saiyan 2 in one fell swoop.

After dealing with Trunks, he planned to have the Grand Elder bring out his potential, because he had already reached the limit of Super Saiyan 1 and had been stable for a very long time.

He only needs one opportunity to easily break through to Super Saiyan 2.

Chapter 602 [Stealing the Senzu Beans for Cultivation]

Buzz! ! !

The entire planet was trembling.

After Trunks finished roaring, he swelled up a size, his eyes blazed, and his body radiated a powerful aura. With a burst of energy, he disappeared from his spot and charged toward Hermes.

He was determined to teach the other party a lesson this time.

Thanks to the other party, he was able to further transform and increase his power on top of the Super Saiyan form.

At this moment, he is invincible.

It's too late to say.

Trunks threw another punch at Hermes. Logically, Hermes shouldn't have been able to dodge it, but reality is cruel, and the familiar pain spread throughout his body.

A fist sank deep into Trunks' abdomen.

In that instant, Trunks' eyes rolled back, and before he could even spit out blood, he knelt down and slammed heavily to the ground, his body convulsing as he questioned the meaning of life.

His Super Saiyan features disappeared, and he was forcibly reduced to his original form.

how is this possible.

Another punch.

I've clearly become stronger, so why can't I still win and get instantly killed?

I'm completely devastated.

"It's so vulnerable."

The healing spell took effect, and Hermes looked down at Trunks.

Not a moment later.

Trunks snapped out of his daze and sat there on the ground, staring blankly into space. He didn't know what to say or do; his mind was a complete blank.

"Your previous transformation had both advantages and disadvantages, but overall the disadvantages outweighed the advantages. The pursuit of power weakened your speed and consumed a lot of energy, making it a failed transformation."

Upon hearing Hermes' words, Trunks turned around and stared at Hermes in a daze. After a moment of silence, he said uncertainly, "I've been suspecting for a while that you're a Saiyan too!"

"Your current state is that of a Super Saiyan."

in the future.

Trunks had seen Hermes transform before, but that transformation was much more elaborate, with colorful auras, unlike the simpler one now, which was closer to a Super Saiyan.

"Maybe!"

"You should leave."

Hermes didn't offer much explanation or continue to instruct Trunks; in his dictionary, he had to be one version ahead of everyone else.

Moreover, I believe that Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, and others will be able to reach Super Saiyan Normal form soon, but by then he will be even further ahead.

Shifting stars.

Trunks felt a blur before his eyes, and then he found himself on a plain, with a time machine appearing beside him. Hermes, on the other hand, had disappeared.

Open your mouth.

Trunks didn't say a word.

He thought Hermes would continue to help him increase his power, such as how to maintain that state without any energy leakage. At the same time, he became even more certain that Hermes was also a Saiyan.

Think about it for a moment.

Trunks couldn't wait to get into the time machine; he had to get back to the future as soon as possible.

With my current strength, I am capable of fighting against androids.

the other side.

After sending Trunks away, Hermes returned to Egerhead and summoned the Grand Elder, intending to have him draw out the hidden potential within him.

He might be able to break through to Super Saiyan 2 in one fell swoop.

In a daze.

There are still six months left before the emergence of androids.

this day.

Hermes appeared out of nowhere in the celestial realm of Earth.

He came here for only one purpose: Senzu Beans.

He had almost forgotten about this magical item. You see, in Dragon Ball, besides the seven Dragon Balls that can grant any wish, Senzu Beans are the most famous.

One of these is equivalent to one life.

Extremely buggy.

Its effects are even more outrageous than those of the Divine Tree fruit.

No matter how badly injured or exhausted, as long as there is still a breath left, eating a Senzu Bean will bring you back to full health. However, even such a miraculous thing has a flaw: it cannot cure diseases.

In the early stages, there were plenty of Senzu Beans, which were stored in jars. Unfortunately, they were wasted by idiots like Yajirobe, which led to Senzu Beans becoming a scarce commodity.

Hermes said that he seemed to have forgotten something, but luckily he remembered it at the crucial moment.

Such an incredible thing must be kept in our own hands.

With the Senzu Bean and the Divine Tree Fruit, he now possesses two divine elixirs. The Divine Tree Fruit, used for daily cultivation, not only replenishes his energy but also enhances his abilities.

The Senzu Bean can revive at crucial moments. As long as there are enough of them, it is the strongest of the strong, no different from a perpetual motion machine. It can use all kinds of powerful moves without any worries and is not afraid of being consumed.

It can also be combined with the Saiyan's talent of becoming stronger when near death.

Come out and hang out.

He never misses any opportunity to exploit bugs.

Kalin Tower.

Below the heavens, Hermes teleported and saw a large white cat with two slit eyes, three whiskers on each side of its mouth, three eyebrows on each side of its head, and a wooden staff in its hand, lying on a deck chair under a parasol, drinking afternoon tea.

The magic beans were cultivated and grown by this cat.

Known as the Cat Immortal.

Next to the cat sage, there is a recliner on which lies Yajirobe, a fat man with spiky hair, dressed in Japanese clothing. This guy deserves a lot of credit for making Senzu Beans so scarce.

"Humanity?"

Hermes' appearance made the cat sage stand up straight.

Meanwhile, Yajirobe was fast asleep, snoring away, probably unaffected even if the world were to end.
