Chapter Summaries

Chaya trained under Mr. Popo in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, correcting flaws in his martial arts and adapting to its harsh conditions. After a year inside, he unleashed enough power to tear open spatial cracks, then withdrew his aura and began adjusting to his new strength.

• Chaya entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber with Mr. Popo and learned that it offered only water and dry flour for food.

• Chaya's power surged, spreading dark-red spatial cracks through the chamber and startling Mr. Popo.
• Chaya withdrew his aura as the chamber's space repaired itself, then stood quietly to adapt to his new strength.

After training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Chaya reflected on the dangers ahead and emerged with a battle power of 12,862. Selyne measured his strength at the Sacred Temple, where Kami joined them as they teased each other.

• Chaya considered the powerful enemies awaiting him, including Frieza, and decided he wanted to grow strong before they appeared.

• Chaya teased Selyne about sparring, and Kami arrived and remarked on Chaya's tremendous progress.

After training with Kami and Mr. Popo, Chaya and Selyne left the Sacred Temple to experience Earth’s civilization and cuisine. They raided a pirate treasure vault to fund their stay, then spent their money stocking Chaya’s dimensional space with food before leaving Earth.

• Chaya had Kami seal Selyne’s tail, and the pair thanked Kami and Mr. Popo before descending from the Sacred Temple.
• Chaya told Selyne they would stay on Earth to experience human life and its food, then used Instant Transmission to reach a pirate treasure vault.

• Chaya discovered that his dimensional space could preserve food, and he and Selyne spent two months buying enough food to fill it for years.

Chaya and Selyne settled on a coastal island near Kame House, where Chaya recognized the area from Son Goku’s future training. They encountered Mutaito, recently returned from Other World, and Chaya recognized the powerful martial arts master.

Chaya and Selyne returned safely to Planet Vegeta, reunited with Rebecca and Adri, and revealed their impressive battle power. While learning how Planet Vegeta had changed, Chaya heard that Prince Vegeta had been born, making him more aware that Frieza’s destruction of the planet was drawing closer.

• Selyne told Rebecca how she had transformed into a Giant Ape on Planet Selma, and Chaya explained that he had cut off both their tails to stop her.

• Adri told Chaya and Selyne that Vegeta had been born with battle power 280 and had already reached 420.
• Chaya grew serious as he recognized that Vegeta’s birth brought the day Frieza would destroy Planet Vegeta one step closer.

Chaya discussed Frieza’s hostility toward the Saiyans and the danger of King Vegeta’s planned rebellion, then trained with Selyne the next morning. A young Elite Warrior arrived at Adri’s home and arrogantly confronted Chaya.

• Chaya realized Planet Vegeta’s destruction might happen within a few years and considered how Vegeta and Bardock’s family fit into the timeline.

• A young Elite Warrior demanded to know whether Adri was home, and Chaya refused to answer until she spoke politely.

Chaya and Selyne met Adri’s young student Myers, whose arrogance irritated them, while Rebecca explained that Myers was a gifted and diligent Saiyan. Adri planned to show Chaya and Selyne around Planet Vegeta before their next missions and explained how Saiyan survival missions tested new warriors.

• Chaya met the two-year-old Myers, who walked past him with contempt as she went to find Adri.

• Adri told Chaya to submit the previous mission and explained that first missions were deadly survival tests that every Saiyan had to endure.

• Selyne threatened the clerk after it spoke arrogantly, but Chaya calmed her and led her out.
• Selyne asked why Chaya had stopped her, and Chaya said the Taje were weak and not worth the trouble.

Adri prepared to take Myers on a month-long mission to Red Rock Planet, and Chaya gave him Senzu Beans to protect him in battle. After learning Frieza might be plotting against the Saiyans and that their Scouters contained listening devices, Adri realized they needed to prepare an escape route.

• Adri told Chaya and Selyne he would take Myers to Red Rock Planet for a mission lasting about a month and advised them to seek Rebecca's guidance while he was away.

• Selyne revealed that Frieza had installed listening devices in Saiyan Scouters, prompting Adri to release a powerful aura before regaining his composure.

After suspecting that Frieza had been monitoring the Saiyans for years, Adri and Rebecca began investigating while Adri left with Myers to assess Frieza and discuss the Saiyans’ future with former comrades. Chaya and Selyne trained together, then received a new squad mission to wipe out a primitive tribe on Dotalia Planet.

• Rebecca gave Chaya and Selyne an intermediate-level mission to form a Saiyan squad and wipe out a primitive tribe on Dotalia Planet.

Selyne joined Chaya and a Saiyan squad for an intermediate mission on Dotalia Planet, while the squad’s members gathered and wondered who would lead them. Shakuda arrived, but revealed that he was not the captain, leaving the group to speculate about who their leader would be.

• Rebecca warned Selyne not to underestimate the Dotalia Planet mission and asked Chaya to keep an eye on her.
• Chaya and the others packed their gear, said goodbye to Rebecca, and headed to the squad’s assembly point.
• Belit and Reida argued beneath a tree until Atasia made them stop, and Jelin mentioned that Shakuda was joining the mission.
• The squad assumed Shakuda would be their captain because of his battle power, but he arrived and said he wanted to know who the captain was too.
• Atasia and the others guessed that their captain might come from an older training-camp class.

Shakuda and the other Saiyans met their newly assigned captains, Chaya and Selyne, and rejected Chaya because he was younger and seemed weak. Chaya defeated Shakuda with a single attack, leaving the team stunned by his strength.

• Shakuda spotted Chaya and Selyne approaching, and the group realized the two younger Saiyans were their teammates.
• Chaya recited the team members’ names and battle powers, revealing that he was their captain.
• Shakuda declared that he would not accept a weak captain, and Atasia and the others agreed that their captain had to be strong.
• Chaya punched Shakuda into a rocky shelf, then hurled an energy sphere at him when he charged back.
• Shakuda dodged the sphere’s direct hit, but its explosion devastated the ground and left the team awed by Chaya’s power.

Chaya formed the Chaya Squad and briefed its members on their dangerous mission to Dotalia Planet. The seven Saiyans departed Planet Vegeta in separate spacecraft for a month-long journey.

• Chaya named the team the Chaya Squad and required its members to obey his orders.
• Chaya warned the squad about the dangers of Dotalia Planet and urged Reida and Belit to be especially careful.

• Chaya led the seven Saiyans to the Spaceport, where they boarded their spacecraft and departed Planet Vegeta.

Chaya's squad landed on the harsh, desertified Dotalia Planet and discovered that its primitive inhabitants lived in numerous tribes. The group split up to hunt solitary natives, while Chaya flew toward a tribe with some of the planet's strongest fighters and appeared above them.

• Reida and the others emerged from their spacecraft after landing in a dried-up riverbed on Dotalia Planet.
• The squad used their Scouters and found that the planet held many clustered groups of natives, some with battle power near 1,000.
• Atasia reasoned that rival tribes might give the Saiyans an opportunity, and Chaya assigned the squad to split up and target solitary natives.
• Chaya sensed a concentration of powerful Kis and flew toward it, finding a small tribe of blue-furred, ape-like natives near a water source.
• Chaya appeared above the tribe, whose members growled at the unexpected visitor.

Chaya slaughtered a tribe of primitive natives on Planet Dodoria and destroyed their settlement with an energy attack. He then moved toward his next target, a one-eyed giant that he estimated had 1,020 battle power.

• Chaya found a tribe cooking a native from a neighboring tribe and confronted its members.
• The natives surrounded Chaya and unleashed a chaotic wave of force, but he judged their attacks to be powerful and unskilled.
• Chaya set his power to 1,000 battle power, outpaced the natives, and disabled them with a series of strikes.
• Chaya destroyed the tribe and its plateau settlement with a glowing energy sphere, leaving a massive crater.
• Chaya left for his next target and spotted a towering one-eyed giant, which he estimated was Planet Dodoria's strongest lifeform at 1,020 battle power.

After seven days of hunting across Dotalia Planet, Chaya regrouped with his team and ordered them to eliminate the remaining large tribes. The mission proved far easier than expected, leaving Chaya poised to choose future assignments that could advance his own ambitions.

• Chaya waited at the spacecraft as his six teammates returned and bragged about their battles against the planet’s natives.
• Atasia asked whether the team should wipe out the remaining tribes, and Chaya concluded that the natives’ poor use of energy gave the Saiyans a major advantage.
• Chaya ordered Selyne to join him while Shakuda led the other five Saiyans to destroy every remaining tribe within five days.
• Chaya and Selyne split up to attack separate targets, and Chaya warned her to turn off her Scouter before using energy above a power level of 1,000.
• Chaya and Shakuda discovered that the extermination mission was surprisingly easy, and Chaya realized he could choose later assignments suited to his ambitions.

After completing their mission on Dotalia Planet, Chaya and the squad returned to Planet Vegeta, where Chaya reunited with former members of the Adri Squad at his home. The chapter left Chaya and Selyne in the company of Adri and the trusted survivors of their parents’ squad.

• Shakuda, Atasia, Jelin, and Reida told Chaya how to contact them and where they lived before he and Selyne headed home.
• Chaya and Selyne found Adri, Rebecca, and four former Adri Squad members waiting at home, and greeted Beruk, Lize, Paradi, and Alice.

Adri and the Adri Squad discussed discovering Frieza’s listening devices in Saiyan Scouters and feared that he already knew King Vegeta planned to rebel. Chaya revealed that Ginyu, captain of Frieza’s trump-card unit, had a battle power of 120,000, leaving the group stunned by the scale of the threat.

• Selyne tried to join the gathering, but Adri sent her back to her room and asked Chaya to stay.
• Adri told Chaya that the Adri Squad had confirmed Frieza had installed listening devices in their Scouters.
• Beruk and the others warned that Frieza might know about King Vegeta’s planned rebellion, while openly spreading the discovery could worsen the conflict.
• Rebecca asked why Frieza had not acted, and the group considered his confidence in his power and the Ginyu Force.
• Chaya asked what Adri knew about the Ginyu Force, then revealed that its captain, Ginyu, had a battle power of 120,000.
• Lize and the others reacted in disbelief as they realized Ginyu’s strength far exceeded that of the Saiyans.
