Super Saiyan Son Goku charged into the cluster of Metal Frieza units, effortlessly striking and dismantling them.
For Metal Frieza, who couldn't even handle Super Saiyan Vegeta, standing against Son Goku was an impossible challenge.
'Boom! Boom! Boom!'
Goku's punches were so swift that they left afterimages, while Metal Frieza endured countless strikes.
Within seconds, the Metal Frieza units surrounding Goku were torn apart, their pieces strewn across the ground. Had Frieza still possessed a physical body, this relentless assault would have likely left him coughing blood in agony.
The robot in the distance was still using its gun to launch energy bullets at Son Goku. Even before the battle, Goku had covered his body with a layer of energy shield.
The energy bullets can't break through the air shield and can only fall to the ground.
From a distance, the robots continued to fire energy blasts at Goku. But even before the battle began, Goku had enveloped himself in a protective energy shield.
The blasts were unable to penetrate the shield and fell harmlessly to the ground.
Without giving any attention to the attacking robots, Goku allowed their attacks to rain on his shield as he calmly approached the metallic core of Frieza.
"It's useless, Frieza. No matter how much you transform or upgrade, the gap between us remains vast," Goku declared, his steps deliberate and unwavering.
"You're just a filthy Saiyan monkey! Don't get so full of yourself!!"
The core of Metal Frieza roared furiously at Goku as metallic tendrils shot out in all directions.
The fragments of Metal Frieza that had fallen to the ground and the attacking robots were pulled in by the tendrils, merging with the Metal Frieza core.
In moments, the core absorbed these components, and Metal Frieza transformed into a colossal form. Standing before it, Goku was barely the size of its toes.
"Ha ha ha! Do you see this? This is my true power after transforming! Not only is my strength greater now, but my body has become far more durable—far tougher than any clone could ever hope to be," Metal Frieza declared triumphantly as it swung an enormous arm to grab Goku.
Goku leapt into the air, evading the enormous grasp. However, the metallic tendrils extended from Frieza's arm and coiled tightly around Goku.
Once Goku was bound, the eyes of Metal Frieza glowed red, charging beams of destructive energy. With a sudden flash, the energy surged toward Goku, obliterating the ground beneath him and shooting out into space.
Yet, Goku had vanished from the tendrils.
Metal Frieza knew that Goku wouldn't be defeated so easily. Scanning his surroundings, Frieza quickly located Goku standing behind him.
Without hesitation, Metal Frieza swung its massive right fist toward Goku, the force of the punch generating powerful winds.
Goku stood his ground, neither dodging nor retreating. He adjusted his stance, took a firm step, and charged with his own right fist, preparing to strike back.
'Boom!!!'
The two fists collided, unleashing a shockwave that tore through the surrounding walls.
But this clash wasn't the end. Goku pressed forward, gradually lifting Metal Frieza's gigantic fist as he advanced step by step.
Goku kept advancing, moving faster and faster, while Metal Frieza's fist was pushed further and further back.
Noticing Goku's imminent success, Frieza growled, "Don't even think about defeating me!" He then brought his left fist over, fusing both fists together into one larger fist, and aimed it at Goku.
Goku, undeterred, poured more energy into his attack. With a mighty push, he forced Metal Frieza's fist back.
'Boom!'
The colossal form of Metal Frieza lost its balance and crashed heavily to the ground, creating a deafening noise that shook the battlefield.
Due to its immense size, Metal Frieza struggled to rise.
Goku seized the opportunity, advancing to Metal Frieza's chest while gathering a glowing yellow energy blast in his hand.
Without waiting for any panicked reaction or shouting, Son Goku launched the energy blast directly into Metal Frieza's body.
The raging energy blast surged through Metal Frieza's metallic frame, rushing toward his central data core. A golden light erupted from within Metal Frieza before culminating in a massive explosion that tore through his body.
Metal Frieza was completely annihilated, his metallic parts and tangled wires collapsing into a heap of scrap.
Before leaving, Goku utterly destroyed the entirety of Big Gete Star to prevent any possibility of it creating another mechanical body and threatening the universe once again.
--------------------------
On Earth.
Metal Frieza, who had been battling Vegeta, suddenly stopped attacking. The reinforcement robots around the Z Fighters also ceased their movements.
They understood that this signified the end of Metal Frieza's true body, which Goku must have destroyed.
At that moment, Vegeta flew directly up to Trunks and demanded curtly, "Who are you, and how can you transform into a Super Saiyan?"
Trunks hesitated, unsure of how to respond. The events of the past had already diverged, and revealing too much could risk further destabilizing both the present and his future, potentially leading to the complete collapse of their timelines.
"He's a boy from the future who came here to tell me something," Goku interjected just in time to ease Trunks' predicament.
"From the future? Hey, Kakarot, what's going on?" Vegeta exclaimed in shock at Goku's words.
The others were equally stunned—why did Goku seem to already know this young man from the future?
"It's fine. He has something important to tell me, so we'll talk in private over there."
"Wait for me here."
Goku led Trunks to an open space far enough from the Z Fighters that they couldn't hear their conversation—except for Piccolo, whose sharp ears allowed him to eavesdrop unnoticed.
"You already know my identity, Goku, so you probably understand what I'm about to say," Trunks began, breaking the silence.
Goku nodded in acknowledgment.
"This is a special medicine to treat your viral heart disease. Please take it when the time comes."
Trunks took out and handed Goku a small vial of medicine.
"I don't know how history will change now, but I must ensure you survive."
He wasn't certain if altering this moment would affect his future, but he knew he had to try.
"Trunks," Goku began, "even if you return to your future, that future won't change. From the moment you entered the time machine, you arrived in a different timeline."
Goku's words shattered Trunks' hopes of rewriting his own reality.
"That's why I plan to accompany you back to the future and help you defeat the androids," Goku continued.
