As time passed, Ben Tennyson did not slow down. If anything, his growth became even more terrifying. Every battle, every injury, every recovery pushed his Saiyan power higher. What once felt like overwhelming strength from others was now something he could stand against… and surpass.
His control over Super Saiyan stabilized, his Ki became sharper, and his fighting instincts evolved rapidly. Now, sparring against Cabba, Caulifla, and Kale together was no longer impossible for him. In fact, he began pushing all three of them at once.
Caulifla, breathing heavily after one such battle, wiped sweat from her face and smirked. "Alright… this is getting ridiculous. We need to go all out now."
Cabba looked slightly concerned. "You mean… fusion?"
Kale glanced at Caulifla, then nodded quietly.
Without hesitation, Caulifla took out the Potara earring and tossed one to Kale. "Let's see if he can handle this."
The moment both of them wore the earrings—
Their bodies fused.
A massive surge of power exploded outward as Kefla was born. Her energy alone shook the battlefield, far beyond what either Caulifla or Kale could produce individually.
Kefla cracked her knuckles, grinning confidently. "Alright, Ben. Let's see how strong you really are."
Ben stood calmly, golden aura flickering around him as he entered Super Saiyan. But unlike before, his presence was steady, controlled, and far more dangerous.
The fight began instantly.
Kefla moved first, her speed overwhelming, her attacks wild yet powerful. Each strike carried immense force, capable of leveling the battlefield. But Ben did not panic.
He adapted.
Their fists collided, shockwaves spreading across the land. Kefla pushed aggressively, but Ben matched her, step by step. His movements were cleaner, his reactions sharper, his power more refined.
For the first time, Kefla's grin faltered slightly.
"You're… keeping up?"
Ben didn't respond. He simply moved.
He slipped past her attack, countered with precision, and forced her back. Kefla roared, powering up further, trying to overwhelm him with raw strength, but Ben stood firm, his aura flaring brighter.
The battle intensified, both sides pushing harder, faster, stronger.
And then—
Ben broke through.
In a single decisive moment, he read her movement perfectly, dodged at the last instant, and delivered a clean, powerful strike.
The impact shook the ground.
Kefla was sent crashing down, her energy destabilizing instantly.
Moments later, the fusion broke.
Caulifla and Kale reappeared, both completely exhausted, unable to stand.
Silence followed.
Cabba stared in disbelief. "He… defeated Kefla…"
Caulifla lay on the ground, breathing heavily, then laughed. "You're seriously… insane…"
Kale looked at Ben quietly, her respect now undeniable.
Ben stood there, his Super Saiyan aura slowly fading as he returned to normal. His breathing was steady, his expression calm.
He had not just caught up to them.
He had surpassed even their fusion.
And deep inside, one thought echoed clearly—
If this was how far he had come already…
Then his limits were still far beyond reach.
