"Janemba, Janemba!" The muddy-yellow Janemba locked eyes on Jiang Chen's new form, his grotesque face lighting up like a gleeful child.

Bouncing in place, he repeated his name joyfully. Then, with a flick of his wrist, Janemba thrust one hand into the air, his arm vanishing into a tear in space, only to reappear beside Jiang Chen in an instant.

Eyes gleaming, Janemba lunged.

Jiang Chen shifted just in time, dodging the blow, but it didn't stop there. Janemba struck again, space distorting like ripples in a pond as layers overlapped, his next punch tearing through the fractured dimension.

Jiang Chen's expression hardened as he pivoted sharply, 

"Boom!"

Their fists collided, a thunderclap of energy bursting outward. The impact sent Jiang Chen hurtling backward through the air. Even with his two-hundredfold Super Saiyan 2 boost, he couldn't withstand the sheer force of Janemba's first form.

This Janemba... was far more powerful than the version from the original timeline.

"That strength... and those spatial abilities... such a headache." Jiang Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his brows furrowing deeply.

He had expected this level of difficulty. In the hierarchy of techniques, time and space were always the trickiest to deal with. Time was supreme, space revered, but neither were easily mastered.

What caught him off guard wasn't just Janemba's strength; it was the way his presence in the Underworld suppressed Jiang Chen's own temporal abilities.

Not because space itself overpowered time but because Janemba ruled this realm. He controlled the Underworld now.

And in his domain, even Jiang Chen's grasp over time was being smothered.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

A flurry of shockwaves echoed as Janemba unleashed a relentless barrage.

"Janemba! Janemba!"

The demon's attacks came in rapid succession, his voice eerily joyful as his fists tore the already unstable space apart. His movements were chaotic yet precise, like a storm with intent. In the distance, Goku, Vegeta, and Trunks were still navigating the broken layers of the Underworld, searching for a way to reach North Kaiō.

But the moment Jiang Chen and Janemba's power clashed, they stopped in their tracks.

The sheer pressure washed over them like a wave.

"He's insanely strong..." Trunks whispered under his breath, wide-eyed.

Goku and Vegeta didn't speak. But their eyes gleamed with raw, unfiltered battle spirit, burning with the desire to fight that only Saiyans could understand.

"Boom!"

A golden shockwave tore through the air, Jiang Chen's aura erupting like a solar flare, flooding the entire sky with divine brilliance. Janemba's attacks followed instantly, space itself folding and fracturing with every blow.

There was no warning.

No pattern.

His strikes were bizarre, unnatural, and each one carried devastating force.

Perhaps it was because Janemba had devoured the entire Underworld, but even in his first form, his power now far outstripped the second form seen in the original timeline.

Even as a Super Saiyan 2, Jiang Chen struggled to keep up.

"Still not enough… My strength is falling short!" Jiang Chen muttered to himself.

Then, he took a single step forward.

A new surge of energy burst from within him, silver-gray light shimmering in his hair and eyes.

In that moment, Jiang Chen ascended into Super Saiyan God. With this divine form, the power of time instantly became easier to control.

"Janemba!" A youthful, eerie voice echoed across the void. Without warning, a dark rift opened beside Jiang Chen, and a fist lunged out of it.

It was soundless.

Faster than light.

But, 

"Swish!"

A current of illusory time energy rippled out as Jiang Chen had already sensed the incoming strike. He clenched his fist, channeling divine energy, and struck back in the same instant.

"Boom!"

Their punches met with explosive force, and the space around them imploded, shattering like glass under the pressure.

"Janemba!"

This time, the youthful voice carried a note of disbelief. But before the creature could process what happened, 

Time flowed and Jiang Chen reappeared directly in front of Janemba.

His mastery over temporal manipulation allowed him not just to halt or distort others' time, but to accelerate his own, skipping through the battlefield like a phantom.

"Janemba, Janemba!"

Now, there was panic in that once-playful voice. But Jiang Chen didn't hesitate. He launched another punch, engulfing Janemba in pure divine energy.

"Boom!"

The impact was earth-shattering, Janemba's body was launched like a meteor through the fragmented void.

Yet Jiang Chen didn't pause for even a heartbeat.

"Swish!"

Time pulsed again and before Janemba's body could finish hurtling through the air, it snapped back toward him, reverse momentum triggered by Jiang Chen's time reversal technique.

Jiang Chen raised his right hand, where a colossal energy sphere crackled into being.

"Boom!"

He unleashed it.

A cascading shockwave of divine power surged across the battlefield, lighting up the void.

"Rumble!"

The explosion echoed through the broken dimension. The violent impact obliterated entire layers of space. In this Super Saiyan God form, Jiang Chen's power was on an entirely different level.

Had this attack been launched in the living realm, an entire galaxy could've been wiped out. Even within the twisted dimensions Janemba had constructed, the space couldn't withstand the force.

But even as the echoes of destruction faded, Jiang Chen's expression grew grim. Through the shattered dimensional layers, he sensed something deeply unsettling, 

Janemba's energy hadn't wavered.

Indeed, 

As the dust settled, Janemba's form slowly reappeared, unscathed.

"Janemba, Janemba…" The young, sing-song voice now carried a dark fury. Janemba's eyes locked onto Jiang Chen, no longer filled with mischief, only rage. As he grew angrier, a pitch-black aura began spreading outward, devouring the shattered dimension.

Jiang Chen tensed.

He halted his approach, eyes narrowing. The dark aura around Janemba began to stir something deeper, something ancient.

"Janemba!" The youthful voice was no longer playful. His body began to shift and mutate and within that growing cloud of black energy…

Figures began to emerge.

"Oh ho ho, this king has returned!"

"Damn Saiyan!"

"Vegeta!"

The voices twisted together, echoing with menace. Out of the swirling void, familiar silhouettes took shape.

"Vegeta, look!" From the distance, Goku's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What… what is that?"

"I see it!" Vegeta growled, clenching his fists.

"It's them… Android 17 and 18!"

Trunks' face darkened.

"Be careful!" He warned. 

"They're from Hell…!" Jiang Chen's voice called out across the battlefield, his tone serious.

From his position at the center, he could see them all clearly.

Frieza. Android 17. Android 18. Bojack. Dr. Gero. Even a broken, incomplete version of Cell. One after another, long-defeated enemies of the Dragon Ball warriors emerged from the mist.

His eyes returned to the center of the storm and Jiang Chen's heart sank.

It was clear now, Janemba had entered his perfected form. This wasn't just him corrupting the Underworld, he was the Underworld now and with that, every evil soul sealed within Hell's deepest layers now surged forward through him, manifesting as warriors reborn through darkness.

"Boom!"

A fresh wave of black energy exploded outward and in the next moment, Janemba disappeared. Jiang Chen, still deep in thought, instinctively crossed his arms and stepped aside.

But, 

He was a fraction too slow.

"Boom!"

A punch slammed into his arms, bursting with demonic might and the force behind that punch detonated across his guard.

And in the next instant, Jiang Chen's body was sent flying like a meteor, vanishing into the darkness.
