Immediately after, he arrived at an open space and began his Super Saiyan 4 transformation. At this moment, Rhode, as before, first transformed into a Great Ape, then, enveloped by the Blutz Wave, he guided his Super Saiyan power to further transform into a Golden Great Ape. After successfully transforming into a Golden Great Ape, he then continuously shrank, shrinking until he returned to his normal form.
However, unlike simply applying the Great Ape Power to his base form before, this time, as his body continuously shrunk, his appearance also began to change. There was no radiant light, no earth-shattering phenomena; there was only a calm process of form alteration. At this very moment, Rhode gradually transformed from a Golden Great Ape into his Super Saiyan 4 form, with a mess of long black hair, a bare chest, arms and back covered in crimson fur, and martial arts attire on his lower body. Rhode's black eyebrows became dense and narrow, with red eye shadow and golden pupils, which, combined with his overall appearance, exuded a unique wild aesthetic.
Only after truly transforming into Super Saiyan 4 did Rhode genuinely realize the uniqueness of this transformation. This form not only possessed powerful defense, the ability to absorb energy, low consumption, and strong control, but more importantly, this form was a return to simplicity, an evolution of the life level. After successfully transforming into Super Saiyan 4, the disappearance of Rhode's normal aura was a clear sign. Whether in GT or the Great Demon story, Goku, after transforming into Super Saiyan 4, broke through Shenron's limitations, changing from a child to an adult, which was a concrete manifestation of life-level evolution.
And precisely because it was an evolution of the life level, it was completely different from the previous three Super Saiyan transformations, possessing various incredible abilities. If Super Saiyan God was an evolution of energy, then Super Saiyan 4 was an understanding of one's own physical body, an evolution of the physical body. One could even phrase it differently: if Super Saiyan Red and Super Saiyan Blue were divine realms in terms of energy, then Super Saiyan 4 was a divine realm in terms of the physical body and life level.
However, Super Saiyan 4 was, after all, only an improvement in physical body and life level, so its energy level could not compare to Super Saiyan God. But in terms of the various extraordinary aspects of the body, Super Saiyan God fell quite short. In Rhode's opinion, only the life-level physical evolution of Super Saiyan 4, combined with the energy evolution of Super Saiyan God, could truly reach the divine realm, or even surpass it.
Although Super Saiyan 4's energy level was not comparable to Super Saiyan God, at this moment, Rhode, having transformed into Super Saiyan 4, could still feel the unprecedentedly powerful strength he possessed. This power was far beyond what a simple Super Saiyan 3 stacked with Great Ape Power could achieve. In other words, the Super Saiyan 4 transformation, compared to his base form, had a power increase of more than four thousand times, perhaps even more.
Because after transforming into Super Saiyan 4, even without training, he could still personally feel his power continuously growing, albeit slowly, but still rising towards a stronger level of power. It was as if to match the life evolution of Super Saiyan 4, the energy level was also continuously increasing until both were perfectly in sync, only then would it stop. Rhode could clearly feel that if he continuously challenged various harsh environments, such as high temperatures, extreme cold, high electricity, super gravity, and so on, the physical endurance of Super Saiyan 4 would become even stronger, going further in the divine realm of the physical body. He even wondered if, by honing Super Saiyan 4 to its extreme, he could rival the energy of the divine realm purely with physical strength. Of course, this was merely a thought; the reality still needed to be verified.
"This, this, this..." At this moment, upon seeing Rhode's new transformed state, Aira's face was filled with shock and fervor, and she couldn't help but blurt out: "So handsome!" Such a wild and aesthetically pleasing form, in her eyes, was simply perfect!
Just as Rhode's normal aura disappeared before, after he transformed into Super Saiyan 4, Aira still couldn't sense any aura from him. As she spontaneously praised him, Aira approached Rhode and couldn't resist reaching out to touch him.
"Tsk tsk, what a powerful physique!" Between her words, Aira's expression was filled with anticipation.
"Hmm!" Seeing Aira like this, Rhode was immediately somewhat speechless. My transformation is meant for you to gain some insights and thereby increase your power, not for you to lust after my body.
"Ahem! Aira, didn't you gain any insights from watching the entire Super Saiyan 4 transformation process?" Seeing Aira becoming increasingly inappropriate, Rhode had to speak up and remind her. There will be plenty of time later; you can do whatever you want then, no need to rush now.
"Uh..." Hearing Rhode say this, Aira's face instantly flushed, and she changed the subject: "Well, I do have some feelings!" Saying this, Aira distanced herself from Rhode, then her expression became serious.
"Hah!" With a soft shout, Aira transformed into Super Saiyan 1. Immediately after, with another soft shout, the power of Super Saiyan 2 manifested on her. However, Aira's Super Saiyan 2 aura was now contained; the previously overflowing energy and flickering electric arcs had disappeared, clearly indicating that she had completely mastered the power of Super Saiyan 2.
"So, next..." After transforming into Super Saiyan 2, the next step was Super Saiyan 3. Aira took a deep breath, then began to roar.
"Ah ah ah ah" As the roar echoed, her already quite long hair slowly began to grow longer. Accompanying the lengthening golden hair, an even more surging and powerful force erupted from Aira's body.
"Ah ah ah~ Hah!" Finally, in one go, Aira truly transformed into Super Saiyan 3. Looking at Aira, who had no eyebrows, sharp eyes, and was radiating power, her spirited appearance made his heart flutter a little.
"Is this the power of Super Saiyan 3?" At this moment, having successfully transformed into Super Saiyan 3, raising her hand and clenching her fist, Aira felt the power she now possessed, and she was incredibly excited, her face filled with joy. However, when she looked up and saw Rhode in his Super Saiyan 4 form not far away, completely devoid of any aura and even more handsome than herself, the joy on her face instantly vanished. Although she had broken through to Super Saiyan 3, Rhode had broken through to Super Saiyan 4 even earlier; she still had a longer road ahead. Moreover, it was clear that the Super Saiyan 4 transformation was very different from the Super Saiyan 1, 2, and 3 transformations; it was a completely different level.
"Good, let's take this time to train well!" Seeing Aira successfully break through to Super Saiyan 3, Rhode nodded in satisfaction and said. Both Aira and himself had broken through to new realms, and the period immediately following would see a rapid increase in power. Now, being in the Time Chamber, they could take advantage of the time difference to push their power to the current stage's limit in one go. Of course, the physical strength increase of Super Saiyan 4 would have to wait for another time to be trained; for now, they would focus on increasing their energy first.
Thus, the two began sparring and fighting in the Time Chamber.
