Chapter 189

Whoosh!

The pink meatball flew over and smeared itself onto Majin Buu's body.

Then it fused with his body, becoming a part of him.

"Successful?" Piccolo's eyes lit up.

No one could have imagined that such a ferocious opponent like Gas could be subdued by Majin Buu so easily.

But no matter how it happened, this was great news.

Majin Buu also looked down at his body, wondering why nothing had changed after absorbing such a powerful being.

This was very unreasonable.

But suddenly, there was a "boom."

Majin Buu exploded like a big watermelon, and pieces of flesh splattered everywhere, causing everyone's pupils to shrink.

Gas appeared again.

He stood in the center of the explosion, spitting and wiping his body in disgust.

"Bah, bah, bah, that's disgusting. You wanted to absorb me, you fat pig? Interesting ability. But it's over now. You asked for it and got blown to pieces."

Piccolo: "..."

Sure enough, they had been happy too soon.

What should they do now?

When will Goku, Vegeta, and Broly arrive?

The situation was getting worse and worse.

But an idea flashed in Piccolo's mind, and he immediately thought of a new strategy.

He wrapped his voice with Ki and spoke to his friends through telepathy: "Everyone close your eyes. Next, I'll use Solar Flare to blind him, and then we can take the opportunity to control him."

"Sebunsuri, listen carefully. When I control him, copy his power..."

It sounded like a feasible plan.

Sebunsuri, who was standing in the distance, nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Trunks frowned, sensing something was wrong.

Piccolo flew towards Gas.

Seeing Piccolo approach, Gas didn't take him seriously and sneered: "Your vitality is so tenacious. You won't die even after my attack, but it will only bring you more suffering. If I were you, I would have run away a long time ago."

Piccolo stood not far from him and smiled: "We are not cowards who run away, and you are not invincible. I've already figured out how to deal with you."

"Oh? Really? Why do you always tell jokes like this? They're not funny at all," Gas said.

While speaking, Piccolo placed his hands on his forehead.

"What are you doing? Surrendering?" Gas looked at him and sneered.

"Hmph!" Piccolo snorted and then suddenly shouted: "Solar Flare!!!"

Suddenly, Piccolo transformed into a giant sun, bursting with dazzling light.

The world was bathed in pale light.

Gas's eyes hurt so much that he teared up, instantly blinded by the flash.

"Sebunsuri, now!"

Piccolo shouted, rushing toward Gas and using his hands and feet to firmly hold him.

Sebunsuri had already rushed over at Piccolo's signal, raised his hand, and lightly touched the back of Gas's neck.

Gas was furious.

"You bastards, I'll kill you."

"Ahhhh!!!"

He roared, and terrifying Ki erupted from his body.

Piccolo, who was holding him, was stunned for half a second before his body was torn to pieces by Gas's burst of energy.

The effect of Solar Flare dissipated, and the sky and earth returned to normal.

"Uncle Piccolo!" Trunks screamed in horror.

Although Uncle Piccolo had the ability to heal himself, it was far inferior to Buu's. Could he survive this?

The more Trunks thought about it, the angrier he became. His Ki surged again.

He stepped through the air and rushed at Gas once more.

"You overestimate yourself," Gas sneered and threw a punch.

"You'll die," Trunks replied, unable to calm down, and punched back with equal force.

The fists collided, a loud bang echoed, and an unknown space split open.

A huge tear appeared in the sky, and violent Ki exploded above the Earth, rushing into deep space and shaking the planet.

Trunks' blood surged, and his throat tasted sweet as he spat out blood.

Immediately after, his body was smashed away like a meteor, hurtling toward the ground.

He fell so fast that sparks shot from his body, and his clothes began to burn. It truly looked like a meteorite.

On the other side, the orb on Sebunsuri's forehead flashed.

The orb quickly reflected Gas's form.

Switching into Gas's form!

This was the power he had just copied!

"Boom!"

Sebunsuri's entire body surged with energy, and electric arcs danced in the sky.

Immediately, his power skyrocketed at an alarming rate.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Sebunsuri gritted his teeth, as the crazy increase in power almost made him lose control.

Moreover, his body began experiencing bursts of severe pain.

Gas noticed something unusual about Sebunsuri and turned to look.

"What's going on with him?" Gas frowned, as if he was seeing another version of himself—a version in pain.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Sebunsuri's power kept rising.

But the physical discomfort worsened.

His muscles swelled painfully, and he struggled to stay in control as his blood vessels seemed ready to burst.

Sebunsuri stared at Gas, seemingly finding a target for his energy.

With red eyes, he rushed at Gas.

"Ah ah ah, die, die, die, die!"

Sebunsuri moved at super speed, and in the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Gas and punched with all his strength.

The wind surged high in the sky, and the punch seemed to suck the air out of the surroundings.

"Hmph!" Gas snorted, but he didn't dare let his guard down and prepared to counter.

The current Sebunsuri gave him a strong sense of danger, as if he were looking at his berserk self.

But that was all.

Suddenly, Sebunsuri's Ki came to an abrupt halt, and the air went deathly silent.

The next moment, endless energy surged toward Sebunsuri.

His body turned into a black hole, then suddenly exploded.

"Boom!!!"

The terrifying Ki drained everything around it, swallowing everything in its path.

Gas quickly raised a protective shield to defend himself.

The terrifying explosion crushed everything in its wake, and the scattered energy rippled out into the universe.

Kami's Lookout was crumbling and falling apart.

Mr. Popo quickly moved the Lookout away from the center of the explosion.

The faces of the Z warriors standing on Kami's Lookout were grim.

They felt like ants, unable to affect the battle at all, helpless.

Now, the gap in their power was so vast that it felt like they no longer existed in the same dimension.

Dende walked to the edge of the Lookout and looked down at the Earth, beads of sweat rolling down his face.

"Earth... half of the Earth has been blown up by the aftermath of this explosion..."

Everyone could see it.

Sebunsuri simply couldn't handle the overwhelming power of Gas.

His body had self-destructed.

Despair, helplessness, and all kinds of emotions spread.

Is there anyone left on Earth who can stop Gas?

Sebunsuri was gone.

Piccolo had been torn to pieces by Gas's explosion of Ki.

Majin Buu had been blown into bits and disappeared.

Trunks had been knocked down to the ground.

What now?

What could they do?

Could they really do nothing but wait for Goku and the others to return?

Damn it, Gohan, where are you? Come back quickly!!!

Everyone at Kami's Lookout looked despondent, as despair washed over them.

And then, Gas's demonic, blood-red figure suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of the Z warriors.

(*TN: Reading this makes me want to punch Whis. He knows the situation but decided not to inform the others. I know they did this because of the plot, to heighten the stakes—it's the Dragon Ball way—but still...)
