Planet-Destroying in Progress, Frieza's Game—One Day Later.
On Planet Vegeta.
As the main battleship of Frieza, the Universe Emperor, landed on the planet, both Frieza's and King Vegeta's plans officially began.
Frieza had deliberately landed his spaceship on Planet Vegeta, giving King Vegeta an opportunity. He wanted to see the grand feast King Vegeta had so carefully prepared for him.
To Frieza, this was simply a chance to toy with these disobedient, self-important Saiyan Monkeys.
King Vegeta did not know that Frieza had not merely come to suppress them—he had come to wipe out the Saiyans and destroy Planet Vegeta.
After preparing for so long, King Vegeta believed that as long as he seized this opportunity, he could overthrow the rule of Frieza and King Cold in one stroke.
Confidence! Even arrogance! Once the overall strength of one's faction reached a certain height, one would inexplicably feel as though the whole world was theirs.
King Vegeta's confidence came from all the elite warriors he had gathered. The strongest among them had nearly ten thousand Battle Power, while even the weakest possessed over five thousand!
There were only a few dozen of them in total, but with these absolute elites of the Saiyans acting together, once they breached Frieza's main battleship, they would seize absolute control and deal Frieza a thunderous blow.
Even if Frieza's Battle Power truly exceeded one hundred thousand, they could all undergo Great Ape Transformation together.
One person's strength was insignificant, but after several dozen underwent Great Ape Transformation, each of their Battle Power could rise to tens of thousands. King Vegeta in particular was confident that he could go toe-to-toe with a Frieza possessing one hundred thousand Battle Power.
King Vegeta acted swiftly and decisively.
It could be said that even the Frieza Force soldiers who had long been stationed on Planet Vegeta knew nothing about it.
Along the way, any Frieza Force combatants who tried to stop them were instantly killed by King Vegeta.
After a short while, under King Vegeta's leadership, they finally arrived before the Main Control Room of Frieza's main battleship.
The outcome seemed decided, but just as King Vegeta was about to force his way into the Main Control Room, Zarbon and Dodoria opened the doors and blocked the group's path.
"You're certainly slow, King Vegeta. And you stupid Saiyan Monkeys, too."
Dodoria let out a sinister, mocking laugh. His face was full of contempt, and he clearly did not regard King Vegeta or his trusted subordinates behind him as worthy of notice.
"Even after we withdrew all the elite warriors, it still took you this long to fight your way in. With strength like that, you dare defy Lord Frieza? The ignorant truly know no fear." Zarbon remained composed at the side, his gaze sweeping over King Vegeta and the warriors he had brought.
Hearing this, King Vegeta laughed instead of getting angry. "Still talking tough at a time like this?! Dodoria, Zarbon, I know your Battle Power is high, but it's time you understood the situation. We are the Saiyans' finest warriors. Every one of us has Battle Power exceeding five thousand! Even if none of us can defeat you one-on-one, we have an absolute advantage in numbers."
At King Vegeta's command, the elite warriors behind him could no longer hold back their taunts.
At that moment, everyone believed that Frieza's era had already passed.
"Hm? Battle Power all above 5,000? Dodoria, would you say that's a high number?" Zarbon asked with a teasing smile.
"Battle Power over 5,000? That is indeed impressive. It's almost a quarter of mine." Dodoria caught on immediately and put on an exaggeratedly comical act.
The two played off each other, treating King Vegeta and his trusted subordinate warriors like complete clowns.
At the sight, rage immediately surged within King Vegeta and his trusted subordinates.
Just as they were about to strike and kill Dodoria and Zarbon, a figure behind them drew close, and they could clearly feel that icy, sinister chill.
The scene made every body tremble.
Frieza sat nonchalantly in his hoverchair.
"Zarbon, Dodoria, let King Vegeta and the others come in. I should witness this grand spectacle with my own eyes," Frieza said, his voice dripping with mockery. A cruel, wicked smile appeared on his sinister face.
Zarbon and Dodoria froze for a moment upon receiving the order, then immediately obeyed without hesitation and stepped aside to make way for King Vegeta and the others.
"Hmph!! Even your master has already seen the situation clearly, yet you still dared to stand in our way!" Though King Vegeta was nervous, he no longer feared anything.
But when he entered the Main Control Room and was about to speak, a single look from Frieza gave the king an inexplicable feeling of unease.
"Oh my, oh my. So many elite Saiyans. King Vegeta, are you truly so confident that you can overthrow my rule?" Frieza asked with a mocking smile.
Those words struck directly at King Vegeta's deepest thoughts.
"Stop talking nonsense! Frieza!! From this day onward, I am the Universe Emperor!!!" Enraged and humiliated, King Vegeta gritted his teeth and forcibly fired an energy blast at Frieza.
He wanted to use his own attack to establish his authority—and make himself braver.
When enemies met on a narrow road, the brave prevailed. Every advantage was on his side; there was no reason to retreat! Yet the energy blast, containing merely ten thousand Battle Power, was effortlessly dispelled by a single glance from Frieza. It did not even explode, instead turning into energy particles that drifted through the air.
"What?!"
At the sight, King Vegeta's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart shook violently.
Like him, the Saiyan warriors behind King Vegeta were frozen in shock, terror showing on their faces.
"Ho ho ho ho~~!! It seems you truly came prepared to die. In that case, there is no need for me to keep playing along with you..." The smile on Frieza's face turned vicious as he casually raised a hand.
In an instant, two Death Beams shot from his index finger, piercing through King Vegeta's knees one after the other.
"Consider that my return gift."
With both knees pierced through, King Vegeta let out a pained howl and uncontrollably dropped to his knees before Frieza.
The sight made everyone present suck in a sharp breath, their throats involuntarily swallowing saliva and air.
The gap was far too great.
Dodoria and Zarbon remained expressionless, quietly watching Frieza's performance.
"Ho ho ho ho~! That's more like it. You Saiyan Monkeys are only fit to kneel before me for all eternity.
"I'm very curious—where did you get the courage? Could it be that so-called legend of the Super Saiyan? To be swayed by such a ridiculous legend... you truly are foolish beyond saving, King Vegeta."
Frieza slowly stepped down from his hoverchair. His small body radiated overwhelming killing intent as he looked down upon King Vegeta from above.
