Chapter 119 - 119: Vegeta versus Moro (1/2)

Moro: Vegeta…you've finally arrived.

Vegeta: I see that our time apart hasn't done a thing to fix that joke you call a face, Moro.

Sage: Burn!

Vegeta: Do you enjoy tormenting the weak?

Moro: The weak? You aren't wrong. While you worms were hiding, I may have gone and become too powerful. And I've grown weary of planets that cannot provide fighters to match me.

Vegeta: Oh? No cause for concern there. (Vegeta powered up into Super Saiyan Blue like in the tournament of power) You want someone stronger than you? You've found him.

Vegeta rushed at Moro. Moro was unmoving and braced himself, implying that he was going to take Vegeta's attack. The right straight hit Moro right in the stomach, pushing him a few feet away but with no visible damage. Everyone but me was surprised by Vegeta's attack. Not because of the power and damage behind the attack but because what the attack caused. I'm guessing that Vegeta's attack was not strong or special because they only believed in what they saw, fortunately for me I saw with my other eyes. I saw a huge amount of energy leave Moro with that one attack.

Gohan: Dammit!! That barely had any effect!!

Android 18: Ugh, what the hell?! He sure talked a big game, but he clearly can't deliver!

Moro: Yes, you have gained a considerable amount of power. Yet you're still not able to contend with me.

Not even caring what anyone was saying, Vegeta rushed Moro with a flurry of punches. Moro being none the wiser wasn't paying attention to his own energy. With every hit Vegeta landed more and more of Moro's energy escaped him. I made sure to copy the technique to use for myself.

Piccolo: Vegeta has gotten stronger. I barely recognize him! But Moro is still more powerful than him. It's a level that can't be overcome with training alone.

I shook my head as I finished hearing Piccolo's insight on Vegeta's trainging. Out of all the Z-fighters, Gohan and Piccolo should have sensed the energy leave Moro, but I guess Moro's massive energy blinded them to the truth behind Vegeta's new technique. What was really baffling was that Moro was oblivious to what Vegeta was doing. I guess Vegeta attacking him and Moro not really feeling the physical damage didn't alert him to the escaping energy. I grinned as everyone grew frustrated at Vegeta's seemingly useless attacks.

Moro: Submit, Vegeta.

Moro grappled with Vegeta before kicking him away. Vegeta slammed into the rock formation we were standing on. The hit looked nasty but Vegeta took it well.

Moro: I do commend you for elevating your power to such heights. You will make for my finest meal yet.

Sage: Let me guess Moro, you're gonna start with his a.s.s.

Moro turned to me with a scowl. I found it very funny that he felt insulted. Vegeta laughed at what I said and continued his assault.

Gohan: What's gotten into Vegeta?

Jaco: Maybe he can't accept losing and he's going berserk?

Piccolo: I doubt it. Vegeta's never been one to misread an opponent's strength.

Moro: Enough of this nonsense, Vegeta.

Moro tried to grab Vegeta with his right hand, Vegeta dodged, spun and back handed punched Moro in the face with his left fist. Then followed up with a bunch of kicks to the stomach. Moro grabbed Vegeta and slammed him into the ground creating a small hole. From the surprised look on Moro's face he was finally feeling the effects of Vegeta's new technique. Goku had an inkling feeling about what was happening because he trained on Yardrat, but he was never able to fully learn their techniques so it wouldn't be far off to say that Goku knew what Vegeta's new technique was.

The more the fight progressed the more Moro seemed slower and weaker than Vegeta. Moro was struggling to keep up and started to get hit more, then Vegeta landed a huge kick to Moro's right ribs.

Goku: Vegeta, this new move of yours. It's…

Vegeta: Forced Spirit Fission.

Gohan: More of his attacks are landing. Is Vegeta somehow getting stronger?

Piccolo: No. It looks like Moro is actually getting weaker!
