Evil Thought Wave

"Goten, tell me honestly—how did you become a Super Saiyan God?"

"It's nothing... I just trained seriously. Maybe I'm just more talented!"

"Hmph!"

Trunks gave a cold snort.

"Goten, don't get too full of yourself. I'll become a Super Saiyan God someday and surpass you!"

"Is that so?"

Son Goten smiled faintly after hearing that.

Trunks was only at Super Saiyan 1 right now, three realms behind him.

By the time Trunks became a Super Saiyan God, he would probably have reached Super Saiyan 6 or even Super Saiyan 7.

The Underworld, King Enma's Palace.

King Enma was extremely busy going through the records of souls, deciding whether to send them to hell or heaven.

"To heaven!"

"To hell!"

"To hell!"

Just as King Enma was hard at work, an Imp brought a newly arrived Imp before him and said,

"Lord King Enma, this is a newly arrived Imp. How should his work be arranged?"

King Enma casually glanced at the Imp.

"Have him manage the Soul Cleansing Machine!"

"Yes, Lord King Enma!"

As he spoke, the Imp led the new Imp toward the Soul Cleansing Machine.

All souls sentenced to hell in the Underworld had to pass through the Soul Cleansing Machine before they could be taken to hell.

"This is the Soul Cleansing Machine. Your main job is to replace the tanks before they fill up!"

The Imp said to the new Imps.

The new Imp was wearing headphones and listening to music, so he did not hear what the Imp said.

"Did you hear me?!"

The Imp pulled off the new Imp's headphones and shouted at him.

"I... I heard you!"

The Imp snorted coldly.

"And when the tank is nearly full of gas, remember to replace it!"

The new Imp nodded.

"And don't slack off while you're working. Otherwise, I'll report you to Lord King Enma and have your pay deducted!"

The new Imp remained silent.

After saying that, the Imp turned around and headed up the stairs.

Seeing this, the new Imp immediately stuck his tongue out at him.

Just then, the Imp suddenly turned around and reminded the new Imp again.

"Whatever you do, don't forget to replace that tank!"

"Yes!"

The new Imp nodded.

Seeing this, the Imp continued walking upstairs.

Once the Imp had left, the new Imp put his headphones back on and resumed listening to music.

The new Imp danced along to the music, completely forgetting about changing the tank.

Just as the Imp became absorbed in dancing, the Soul Cleansing Machine's tank filled up with gas and began expanding.

Boom!!

With a deafening explosion, the tank exploded, releasing a huge amount of gas.

When the gas came into contact with the flames from the explosion, it immediately set the Soul Cleansing Machine ablaze, causing it to explode as well.

The Imp who was still listening to music heard the explosion and immediately took off his headphones, only to find himself surrounded by gas.

"It's... it's over! My whole paycheck is gone!"

As he spoke, the new Imp grabbed a fire extinguisher nearby and tried to put out the blaze, hoping to make up for his mistake as much as possible.

At that moment, the Imp who had assigned him the job rushed in anxiously. Seeing gas everywhere, he said furiously,

"You little Imp! I kept telling you to change the tank, but you treated my words like they went in one ear and out the other!"

The new Imp deeply regretted it after hearing that.

Not only would he lose his pay now, he would also have to compensate the Underworld with a huge sum of money.

Boom!!

Just as the new Imp was thinking that, an explosion suddenly went off beside him, blasting a large amount of gas onto him.

The new Imp's body was quickly covered by the gas.

Then, under the effects of the gas, the new Imp transformed into a huge, round, yellow monster.

The Yellow Monster had protruding short horns on both sides of his head, pointed ears, short hands and feet, arms slightly longer than his legs, light purple pants, light purple wristguards, and a huge, thick tail behind him.

"The... the Imp transformed!"

The Imp was shocked and hurriedly ran forward.

"Evil Thought Wave!"

At that moment, the Yellow Monster raised both hands. A barrier appeared and spread throughout the entire Underworld.

On Earth.

Son Goten and Trunks were sparring.

Suddenly, both of them sensed many powerful energies appearing on Earth.

"Goten, did you feel that? It seems like a lot of powerful energies suddenly appeared on Earth!"

"Yeah!"

Son Goten nodded.

"Then should we go take a look?"

"Okay!"

After saying that, the two immediately flew toward West City.

West City.

Gohan, who was attending Orange Star High School, immediately left the classroom after sensing Frieza and the others' energies. He saw countless dead people with halos over their heads flying through the sky.

Some of these dead people were members of the Frieza Force, while others were enemies Son Goku and the others had defeated before.

Although Gohan did not know what had happened, they were all bad people and posed a great threat to the city.

So he chose to eliminate them.

At the same time.

The Dragon Ball Z Warriors on Earth also sensed Frieza and the others' energies and rushed to West City to help.

Krillin: "Goku, what is going on? Why are there so many ghosts appearing on Earth?"

"I'm not sure either. I'll ask Lord Kai!"

As Son Goku spoke, he used telepathy to contact North Kai.

"Lord Kai, what's going on? Why have Frieza and the others' souls appeared on Earth?"

"The reason is that the Imp in charge of the Soul Cleansing Machine failed to replace the machine's tank in time. The tank exploded, and the Imp was exposed to the gas, transforming into the monster Evil Thought Wave!"

"Evil Thought Wave?"

"That's right. He summoned the souls that appeared on Earth. King Enma and the others are currently trapped by the barrier Evil Thought Wave created!"

"I see. Then, Lord Kai, is there any way to make these souls disappear?"

"There's nothing I can do about that. I think the only thing you can do now is defeat them!"

"I understand. Then, Krillin, let's all eliminate these souls!"

"Okay!"

Krillin nodded.

On top of a building in West City.

Son Goten and Trunks encountered Frieza and the Ginyu Force under him.

"Who are you? Why do you look so much like Son Goku?"

Frieza was startled when he saw Son Goten's appearance.

"He's my dad. My name is Son Goten!"

"Son Goten!"

After hearing that, Frieza looked at Trunks and realized that he looked very much like Future Trunks, who had once sliced his body into several pieces.

"Who are you?"

Frieza asked Trunks.

"My name is Trunks!"

"Then who is your father?"

"Vegeta!"

"Vegeta? So you're that traitor's son!"

"You know my dad?"

"Of course. Your father used to be my subordinate!"

"Subordinate?"

Trunks looked confused.

Frieza smiled.

"Hasn't your father mentioned me? My name is Frieza!"

"Oh, so you're that villain Frieza!"

Vegeta truly had never mentioned Frieza to Trunks. It was Bulma who had told him about Frieza.

After all... working under Frieza was hardly something Vegeta could be proud of.

"Hmph!"

Frieza snorted coldly.

"Ginyu Force, get rid of them!"

"Yes, Lord Frieza!"

After hearing that, Jeice and the others immediately charged at the two.

"Ha!"

Trunks shouted and swiftly rushed before Jeice, punching straight through his body.

Bang!!

Since Jeice was currently in a soul state, his body immediately dispersed like smoke after Trunks's fist struck him.

Guldo and the others were shocked, but they still attacked Trunks.

Trunks dodged to the side, then eliminated them with a punch or kick each.

"Damn it!"

Frieza gritted his teeth and charged at Trunks.

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared and kicked his body into upper and lower halves.

It was Son Goten.

Frieza's expression changed drastically when he saw his body split in two. Then, like Jeice and the others, he dispersed into smoke.

Seeing this, the Frieza Force behind Frieza fled in all directions.

"Don't run!"

Seeing that, Trunks immediately chased after them.

Son Goten followed him as well.
