The battlefield remained still.
The echoes of Raziel's overwhelming transformation still lingered in the air.
The once-roaring crowd of Saiyans?
Silent.
Watching.
Processing what they had just witnessed.
And in the center of it all—
Raziel.
Collapsed.
Sweating.
Gasping for air.
His body barely responding.
His mind racing.
His blood burning.
But deep inside—
A spark.
Excitement.
He had never felt power like this.
Never been pushed like this.
And for the first time—
He wanted more.
Caulifla's Response – The Fight Isn't Over
🔥 CRACK! 🔥
The sound of lightning snapping through the air.
Caulifla's Super Saiyan 2 aura flared violently.
Her golden hair whipped back from the force.
Her eyes burned with untamed fury.
She landed hard onto the ring, her feet slamming against the stone.
Her fists clenched.
Her tail twitched behind her.
And her Saiyan pride?
It was on fire.
She stormed forward, standing over Raziel.
Then—
She grinned.
A sharp, cocky, dangerously eager grin.
Caulifla:"Oi. You done already?"
Raziel looked up, still breathing heavily.
His vision slightly blurry.
Caulifla leaned forward slightly, crossing her arms.
Caulifla:"Tch. That was some power, but what good is it if ya can't even use it right?"
Her eyes narrowed, flickering with excitement.
Caulifla:"You really are new to this, huh?"
Then—
She smirked wider.
Caulifla:"But damn, I felt that. That was real strength. I wanna see more of it."
Raziel blinked, still struggling to keep his breath steady.
Then—
His lips curled slightly into a small smirk.
Raziel:"Hah… huff… so, you liked that, huh?"
Caulifla grinned wider, cracking her knuckles.
Caulifla:"Damn right I did. But I ain't satisfied. Not even close."
She turned, looking toward Vados and Champa.
Then—
She shouted.
Caulifla:"HEY! Let's fix this guy up! I wanna fight him again!"
Vados' Amusement – A Test Worth Watching
Vados tilted her head slightly, a playful smile on her lips.
Vados:"Oh my, how enthusiastic."
She tapped her staff lightly against the ground.
A soft, shimmering light enveloped Raziel.
His exhaustion?
Gone.
His pain?
Healed.
His strength?
Completely restored.
Raziel blinked in surprise, looking at his hands.
Raziel:"What the—? I feel… fine?"
Vados smiled knowingly.
Vados:"Better than fine, actually. I took the liberty of restoring your energy completely."
Then—
She chuckled softly.
Vados:"You're welcome, by the way."
Raziel stood up slowly, testing his body.
And then—
He clenched his fists.
His power surged slightly.
A grin slowly crept onto his face.
Raziel's Excitement – The Flame of Combat Grows Stronger
Raziel:"Oh, hell yeah. This is awesome!"
His blood burned again.
The fatigue from before?
Forgotten.
The struggle?
Irrelevant.
His Saiyan instincts screamed louder than ever.
And he was starting to love it.
He looked at Caulifla—his eyes gleaming with battle lust.
Raziel:"You really wanna go again, huh?"
Caulifla grinned, rolling her shoulders.
Caulifla:"Damn right I do."
Her aura flared.
Her stance set.
And then—
She smirked.
Caulifla:"Think you can handle round two, or you gonna pass out again?"
Raziel chuckled, rolling his neck.
Then—
🔥 BOOM! 🔥
His own aura erupted violently.
A deep red glow engulfed him, flickering with power.
And then—
He grinned wildly.
Raziel:"Bring it on, girl."
The air crackled with energy.
Two Saiyan warriors, driven by the thrill of battle, stood face to face.
Their auras surged violently, colliding against one another.
Then—
🔥 BOOM! 🔥
They exploded forward.
Aerial Combat Begins – A Saiyan's True Battlefield
Both Raziel and Caulifla charged upward, soaring into the sky.
The battle was no longer confined to the ring.
This time—they fought in the air.
🔥 CLASH! 🔥
Fists met fists.
Kicks were deflected at blinding speeds.
Energy snapped around them, lighting up the sky with each strike.
Raziel, now aware of his overwhelming power, was trying his best to hold back.
But still—he wasn't fully in control.
He continued lowering his strength mid-battle, constantly adjusting, afraid of miscalculating.
Yet—
His Saiyan instincts pushed him forward, learning faster than ever before.
The Audience Watches – Five Standouts
The crowd below roared in excitement.
All of Sadala's Saiyans watched in awe.
Frieza's army stood frozen, silent, knowing they were witnessing something beyond their comprehension.
Yet—
There were five exceptions.
🔹 Champa – Arms crossed, serious, watching carefully.
🔹 Kale – Concerned, but also deeply focused.
🔹 Jiren – Silent, yet analyzing every move.
🔹 Toppo – Calculating, seeing the true potential behind the fight.
🔹 Vados – Smiling, but not for the battle—for what it represented.
Vados' Thoughts – The True Purpose of the Test
Vados' smile widened slightly.
She was not watching for entertainment.
She was watching the progress.
This was still only a test.
A test given by her brother, Whis.
And so far?
It was working.
Raziel, despite his power, was adapting.
He was learning.
But the true evaluation?
That had yet to begin.
Raziel's Growth – Mimicking Caulifla's Fighting Style
🔥 BOOM! 🔥
The battle raged on.
Yet—Caulifla began noticing something.
Raziel's movements were shifting.
He was starting to fight like her.
His counters, his footwork, even his rhythm—
He was mimicking her style.
Caulifla's eyes narrowed.
Caulifla:"Tch… You're copying me, aren't ya?"
Raziel grinned mid-battle.
Raziel:"Maybe. You got a problem with that?"
Caulifla smirked, launching another kick.
Caulifla:"Yeah! Only I get to fight like me!"
🔥 BOOM! 🔥
The fight continued.
The Final Clash – The Moment of True Excitement
Both warriors dashed forward—
And then—
Their hands locked together in a deadlock.
Both pushing against each other.
Their eyes locked.
Their aura flared wildly.
Neither would give in.
Neither would back down.
And in that moment—
For the first time in centuries, Raziel felt something real.
His grin widened.
His heart pounded with excitement.
And then—
He spoke.
Raziel:"Heh, I gotta admit!..."
"I've never felt this great since… almost never before!"
His grip tightened slightly.
"You make me remember and feel like I truly was!"
Caulifla grinned back, her breath slightly heavy.
But then—
🔥 BOOM! 🔥
Raziel broke the deadlock.
He swung both hands forward—
💥 SMASH! 💥
Caulifla was sent flying downward.
Caulifla's Fall – The Fight is Decided
Her body spun rapidly, unable to stop herself.
🔥 CRASH! 🔥
She slammed into the ring, kicking up a storm of debris.
The ground shook from the impact.
And when the dust settled—
She lay on the ground, unmoving.
Her golden hair faded.
Her Super Saiyan 2 aura vanished.
She was back in base form.
And just like that—
The fight was over.
Raziel Descends – A Victory Earned
Raziel floated down slowly.
As he landed—his own transformation flickered away.
His aura disappeared.
His body relaxed.
And now—both stood in their base forms.
Raziel looked down at her.
For a brief moment—
He simply stared.
Then—he smiled.
Raziel's Appreciation – Feeling Something Real
Raziel:"... If I'm being honest... You're awesome!"
His tone was genuine, full of admiration.
"You made me feel alive again! More than just that too!"
His eyes softened slightly.
"From being a corrupted, shattered, empty soul..."
"For so many centuries..."
"So long... I don't even remember."
He exhaled deeply, shaking his head.
"But this... this is the first time in way too long, I actually feel something."
His smile widened slightly.
"Thank you."
You're absolutely right! That part didn't make sense. Here's the corrected version:
Raziel Offers His Hand – A Gesture of Respect
Raziel stepped forward.
He extended his hand toward her.
And then—he smirked.
Raziel:"Your name, girl? Or do you prefer me calling you 'girl' all the time?"
He mocked her slightly, teasing her.
Caulifla's eyes twitched.
For a moment—she hesitated.
Then—
She reached forward.
And with a quick, strong grip—
She grabbed his hand.
Raziel grinned—
But then—
🔥 WHOOSH! 🔥
Without realizing it—
He used more strength than necessary.
In an instant—
Caulifla was pulled forward.
An Awkward Moment – Too Close for Comfort
Caulifla stumbled—
And nearly fell into Raziel.
But—
She caught herself at the last second.
For a brief moment—
Their faces were way too close.
Caulifla's eyes widened in realization.
🔥 WHOOSH! 🔥
She jumped back immediately, her face darkened slightly in reaction.
Her brows furrowed, but she said nothing.
Meanwhile—
Raziel?
He stood frozen.
His arms slightly raised.
His expression completely blank.
Then—
A slow, awkward blink.
His tail twitched slightly behind him.
And then—
He exhaled sharply.
A small, embarrassed chuckle escaped him.
This was new.
And very, very awkward.
