Chapter 252

Saint Seiya LC Universe: Sanctuary

The Gold Saints watched the terrifying strength that Son Goku displayed, their expressions varying greatly. Even Shaka couldn't help but wear a grave look.

"Hey, hey, this Son Goku is ridiculously strong. If one of us Gold Saints were to take a direct hit, we'd definitely be injured," Manigoldo was the first to break the silence, voicing his thoughts.

"Hmph, what's the big deal? Destroying stars? We Gold Saints can do that too," Cardia scoffed dismissively.

"That may be true, but it's still a real threat," Degel analyzed.

Goku's power had reached a level comparable to the Gold Saints. However, since his attacks weren't at the speed of light, fighting him wouldn't be overly challenging. Yet, Degel sensed that Goku's potential was immense, and given time, he could become a serious threat.

"Strong individuals from other universes, huh? Fascinating. It seems there are plenty of formidable beings across the multiverse," Sage said with a grin, his gaze filled with anticipation as he watched the screen.

Underworld: Hades' Castle

"Heh, those two from another universe are quite strong. If they were to join Hades' army, they could be valuable assets," Hypnos chuckled, his tone tinged with interest.

"Hmph, those two are just strong brutes. Against the Three Judges of the Underworld, they'd be no more than children!" Radamanthys scoffed, clearly unimpressed.

Aiacos and Minos nodded in agreement, sharing Radamanthys' disdain for Goku and Vegeta.

"Speaking of which, what about that demigod called Abel? Wasn't he supposed to appear in the Dragon Ball universe?" Aaron suddenly recalled.

The screen had focused so much on Goku and Vegeta's battle that many had momentarily forgotten about Abel. The others quickly realized this too.

Dragon Ball Universe

By now, Goku was sprawled on the ground, utterly exhausted and gasping for air.

"Ha... ha... I'm done... I'm so tired. Man, I could really use some food right now," Goku panted, his stomach growling loudly.

The others chuckled helplessly at the familiar sight, having long grown used to Goku's antics.

"Wait a second, don't forget something important!"

Piccolo suddenly spoke, his expression turning wary as he scanned the surroundings.

"That SCP called Abel has already appeared in our universe."

Piccolo's tense demeanor sent a chill through the group.

"What?!"

Krillin and the others were shocked, their focus having been entirely on Goku and Vegeta's battle. Only Piccolo had kept an eye on the broader situation.

"But don't worry too much. According to what we've seen, that Abel can be killed by normal human strength. The only troublesome part is his constant resurrection," Piccolo scoffed, dismissing Abel's threat.

"Huh!"

The next moment, Piccolo's pupils widened in shock. He sensed an overwhelming energy rapidly approaching.

"What a powerful ki!"

The others also felt it—a force far stronger than theirs, leaving them visibly stunned.

All eyes turned toward the source of the energy.

From a short distance away, a figure emerged: a shirtless man covered in strange runes, with long black hair and a massive black sword in hand.

The man's appearance was unsettling. His blood-red eyes radiated killing intent, and his grotesque grin sent shivers down their spines.

"Hey, is this the SCP? How is his ki this strong?" Yamcha muttered, swallowing hard as he felt Abel's oppressive energy.

"Piccolo, this doesn't match your description at all," Tien remarked grimly.

"There's no way this is within the scope of ordinary humans," he added, his voice heavy with disbelief.

"This can't be! On the screen—"

Piccolo's voice trailed off as he stared at Abel in shock. The energy emanating from Abel rivaled his own, completely different from the reports.

Unless... the weapons used by the humans in that other world were far beyond Earth's technology. Or, Abel had grown stronger from battles with other SCP, something the screen hadn't mentioned.

"Damn it! The screen's description can't be fully trusted!"

Piccolo clenched his fists, feeling like he'd been duped.

"You're quite strong... especially that one," Abel sneered, pointing his massive sword toward Piccolo and then at the exhausted Goku.

"I just watched a splendid battle. I didn't expect people in this universe to be so strong. Hahaha! This is so exciting, so exciting!"

Abel's eerie laugh echoed, growing more twisted and frenzied.

"Let me enjoy myself! Let me fight you strong ones to my heart's content!"

With that, Abel charged at full speed, closing the gap between himself and Piccolo in an instant.

The look in Abel's eyes was ferocious, his every move screaming his intent to kill.

"Damn it!"

Piccolo immediately unleashed his ki to form a protective barrier.

However, the moment Abel's sword struck Piccolo's shield, it shattered like glass, offering no resistance at all.

"What?!"

Piccolo's eyes widened in disbelief as Abel's sword sliced him in half before he could react.

"Tch, so weak," Abel sneered, his voice dripping with disdain as he prepared to attack the others.

But before he could make another move, Piccolo's upper body spun in midair and delivered a powerful punch, sending Abel flying.

"Don't underestimate me!" Piccolo growled. As he spoke, his lower body regenerated in an instant.

"Haha, so you can regenerate. That makes you worth killing repeatedly!" Abel grinned wickedly before charging at Piccolo again.

"Kill me? Don't be so full of yourself," Piccolo sneered, flying into the air.

"Hm!"

Abel's expression shifted as he realized he couldn't fly.

"If you can't fly, then I have the advantage!"

Piccolo smirked, launching a barrage of ki blasts at Abel.
