The air in Universe 6's wastelands crackled with energy as Caulifla, Kale, and Cabba stood at the edge of a barren cliff, gazing over their training ground. The vast expanse stretched endlessly, perfect for the rigorous training Caulifla had in mind. Ever since their return from the Tournament of Power, Caulifla had been relentless in her pursuit of greater strength, and today was no different.

"Alright, you two!" Caulifla clapped her hands together, her fiery grin lighting up her face. "That old man—what's his name again? Goku? Yeah, him! He hit a crazy level back there—Super Saiyan 3! If he can do it, so can we!"

Kale fidgeted nervously, her eyes darting to Cabba, who stood with his arms crossed, his expression a mix of skepticism and resolve.

"Caulifla," Cabba began, his tone measured, "Goku's power is on a completely different level. We've seen what he's capable of. It's not just about brute strength; it's about mastering control, endurance, and—"

"Blah, blah, blah!" Caulifla waved him off, rolling her eyes. "Stop being such a stick in the mud, Cabba. We're Saiyans! We don't limit ourselves just because something seems impossible. We blow past limits!"

Kale hesitated. "B-But what if we can't? Goku's been training for years. We've only just scratched the surface of what he knows."

"Exactly why we need to train harder!" Caulifla jabbed her thumb into her chest. "Kale, Cabba, I'm not saying it'll be easy. But if you two stick with me, we'll be unstoppable! Super Saiyan 3 will just be the start!"

Cabba sighed, shaking his head. "You're as reckless as ever, Caulifla. But... you're not wrong. Saiyans thrive on surpassing limits. If anyone can do it, we can."

Kale offered a tentative smile, her faith in Caulifla shining through her shyness. "Okay, Caulifla. I'll do my best!"

"Now that's the spirit!" Caulifla's energy flared around her in a golden aura. "Let's get started!"

The trio launched into an intense regimen. Caulifla led the charge, throwing punches and kicks with explosive force, urging Kale and Cabba to push their limits. Their sparring sessions grew more ferocious by the minute, the ground beneath them trembling with each blow exchanged.

"Come on, Kale!" Caulifla barked, dodging a blast of energy from her. "Put some power into it! Don't hold back just because I'm your leader!"

"I-I'm trying!" Kale shouted, her aura flickering wildly as she pushed herself further.

Cabba, battling beside them, was drenched in sweat but kept his stance firm. "Caulifla, we've been at this for hours. If we don't pace ourselves—"

"No pacing!" Caulifla interrupted, her fists glowing with golden energy. "Goku didn't pace himself when he reached Super Saiyan 3. You two want to stand around and talk, or do you want to get stronger?"

Cabba and Kale exchanged a glance, then redoubled their efforts. As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of crimson and gold, the wasteland erupted with a surge of energy unlike anything the trio had felt before. Caulifla's aura suddenly changed—her golden light darkened, mixing with streaks of crimson. Her muscles tensed, and her body glowed with a primal power.

"Wh-What's happening to her?!" Kale exclaimed, shielding her eyes from the blinding light.

"I don't know!" Cabba shouted, his voice tinged with awe and concern. "Her energy—it's... wild!"

With a guttural roar, Caulifla's transformation completed. When the dust settled, she stood before them, transformed. Her hair had grown longer and spiked, colored a deep crimson that shimmered under the fading light. Her eyes were sharp, glowing yellow with slit pupils like a predator's. Her body was covered in a layer of reddish fur, except for her toned midriff and arms, which were bare.

Kale blushed deeply, looking away. "C-Caulifla, y-you're... um..."

Cabba coughed awkwardly, avoiding her gaze. "Y-You might want to, uh, cover up a bit more..."

Caulifla looked down at herself and smirked, completely unbothered. "What? You're embarrassed? Come on, this is awesome!" She flexed her arms, admiring her new form. "Look at me—I'm unstoppable!"

"Caulifla," Cabba said, regaining his composure, "this isn't Super Saiyan 3. It's... something else entirely."

Kale nodded hesitantly. "It feels... primal. Like something ancient."

"Ancient or not, this power is mine now!" Caulifla clenched her fists, her aura surging. "I bet not even that old man's Super Saiyan 3 can handle this!" Eager to test her strength, Caulifla beckoned to her teammates. "Alright, you two! Let's see what you've got against me now!"

"Are you serious?" Cabba said, his voice rising in disbelief. "You've just unlocked this form—you don't even know what it can do yet!"

"Exactly why I need to test it!" Caulifla's grin was feral. "Come on, Cabba. Don't tell me you're scared!"

Cabba groaned, stepping forward and powering up to Super Saiyan 2. "Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you."

Kale hesitated before following suit, her shy demeanor giving way to determination. "I'm with you, Caulifla!"

The battle that followed was nothing short of ferocious. Caulifla's newfound power overwhelmed Cabba and Kale, her speed and strength surpassing anything they'd ever encountered. Even in their Super Saiyan 2 forms, they struggled to keep up.

"Too slow, Cabba!" Caulifla taunted, dodging his punch and countering with a bone-rattling kick that sent him skidding across the ground. "Kale, you've got power, but you need to control it better!"

Kale unleashed a barrage of energy blasts, but Caulifla deflected them effortlessly. She appeared behind Kale in an instant, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Tag, you're it!" Caulifla quipped before launching her friend into a nearby boulder.

After hours of sparring, the trio collapsed onto the ground, exhausted. Caulifla reverted to her base form, her chest heaving as she lay sprawled on the dirt.

"That... was... awesome," she panted, grinning from ear to ear.

Cabba groaned, sitting up and rubbing his sore shoulder. "You're insane, Caulifla. That form of yours—it's incredible, but you're going to hurt yourself if you're not careful."

Kale nodded, her voice soft but filled with admiration. "You were amazing, Caulifla. But... do you think we can reach that level too?"

Caulifla turned to her friends, her grin softening into a determined smile. "Of course you can. We're Saiyans, remember? There's no limit to what we can achieve if we keep pushing ourselves."
