Dragon Ball: Being able to revive means you're courting death? How naive!

Chapter 232 The Terrible Frieza

Sun Wukong moved like a ghost within the impenetrable stone formation, a shooting star in the dark night, leaving a trail of howling winds in his wake. Yet, after a long and fierce battle, the surrounding boulders seemed endless, showing no sign of diminishing. His eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, "Fine, since you insist on this protracted fight, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

The thought had barely formed in his mind when Sun Wukong unleashed a powerful and overwhelming surge of energy. This energy wave spread with overwhelming force, instantly shattering any rubble it touched, turning it into countless dust particles. Taking advantage of the momentum, Sun Wukong nimbly flipped over, landing lightly on the ground. Standing firmly, he looked up at Frieza on the mountaintop and calmly uttered, "Alright."

Frieza, seeing Goku below calm and unperturbed as if completely unaffected, felt a surge of rage well up inside him. He gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, and cursed viciously, "Hmph, you reckless, arrogant brat!" Before his words even finished, his arms, which had been crossed over his chest, suddenly dropped and slowly came together at his abdomen, palms facing each other. In that instant, a terrifyingly powerful energy surged forth from his body, causing the ground beneath his feet to tremble violently. In the distance, even the mountains seemed to tremble under the influence of this power, the earth emitting a deep, rumbling sound.

Frieza's lips curled into a cruel smile as he slowly raised his hands above his head and stretched them backward. As he did so, the ground behind him seemed to be slowly lifted up by an invisible giant hand.

Shang Yun and the others were stunned by what they saw. Klin's eyes widened in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly with shock: "Ah... what on earth is going on? How is this possible!"

Gohan was also shocked by the sight before him, muttering to himself, "This is like a small island, floating in the air!" The floating land had jagged edges, with soil and rocks tumbling down, yet it remained steadily in mid-air, casting a huge shadow under the sunlight, as if proclaiming Frieza's terrifying power to everyone.

Frieza's eyes flashed with a fierce light. He swung his hands forward with tremendous force, as if tossing a trivial toy, hurling the enormous floating "island" behind him towards Goku. In an instant, the wind howled, and the "island," carrying immense force, hurtled towards Goku like a falling meteor.

Sun Wukong looked up and saw the "island" getting closer and closer, but a confident smile appeared on his face. Just as the "island" was about to collide with him, he spread his arms and firmly embraced it. The enormous impact came like a tidal wave, Sun Wukong's feet plowed two deep furrows in the ground, and he was knocked back several steps, the ground trembling and dust flying everywhere.

Sun Wukong flew at breakneck speed until he crashed violently into a towering mountain behind him, forcing him to stop. In an instant, a sharp, gleaming blade of light flashed like lightning, cleanly slicing through the hard rock at an angle, and Sun Wukong burst forth amidst a cloud of stone fragments. However, just as he leaped into the air, Frieza's ghostly figure suddenly appeared above him.

Frieza's lips curled into a mocking smile as he coldly said, "You've been tricked." With that, Frieza extended his right hand, palm wide open, fingers like hooks, pressing down on Goku. A strange power instantly enveloped Goku, as if he were bound by invisible shackles, unable to move, only able to struggle futilely in the air.

Frieza let out a sinister laugh: "Prepare to die! If I slip up even slightly, you'll be dead for good." No sooner had he spoken than his steel whip-like tail lashed out, striking Goku with a resounding "whoosh." Goku was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.

But that wasn't all. While Sun Wukong was still in mid-air, Frieza flashed forward, appearing like a ghost in front of him. Then, another sharp tail whip lashed out, a crisp "smack" echoing through the air, sending Sun Wukong flying again, tracing an arc through the air. Frieza seemed to have found amusement in this, repeating the act again and again, treating Sun Wukong like a toy ball, letting him "fly" back and forth in mid-air, utterly powerless to fight back.

Sun Wukong was relentlessly whipped through the air by Frieza, his internal organs churning, yet he never gave up, secretly pondering a way to escape. Just then, Frieza's serpentine tail suddenly coiled around Sun Wukong, abruptly stopping his movements. Frieza extended a long, slender finger, pointing directly at Sun Wukong, a cold smile on his face, and said chillingly, "Hmph, I think this game ends here."

Sun Wukong was utterly astonished and blurted out, "What?"

Frieza scoffed disdainfully, his tone filled with weariness: "Because I'm already tired of it." As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of dark blue energy instantly condensed in his palm, carrying a world-destroying aura, and blasted straight towards Sun Wukong.

In an instant, Sun Wukong was like a kite with a broken string, thrown backward by the powerful energy. He crashed heavily to the ground, causing the heavens and earth to collapse. The once towering mountains crumbled instantly, large chunks of rock tumbled down, stirring up clouds of dust. The surrounding seawater also seemed to be stirred up by an invisible giant hand, rushing back in frantically.

The powerful shockwave traveled far and wide, and even Shang Yun and the others, who were far away, could not escape it. Caught off guard, the ground beneath their feet suddenly collapsed, and everyone cried out in alarm as they plunged into the lake below, instantly swallowed by the surging waves.

When the dust settled, all was deathly silent. Shang Yun, Piccolo, Krillin, and Gohan struggled to emerge from the thick sand, trying to break free of the shackles that buried them. When they straightened up and looked up, they were met with a suffocating sight: the sky was completely obscured by a thick gray fog, pressing down heavily like a giant lid, enveloping the world. As far as the eye could see, there was no light and no end in sight.

Frieza's terrifying attack was far more powerful than imagined. The once rolling mountains had vanished without a trace, as if uprooted and crushed by an invisible giant hand to fill the surrounding ocean. The magnificent landscape of mountains and water was now a desolate, flat desert, lifeless and desolate.

"Goku!"

"father!"

Krillin and Gohan were filled with anxiety, shouting at the top of their lungs.
