Destroying Enemies with a Wave of His Hand

Saganbo?

This guy was no pushover!

Recalling the information related to Saganbo, Rhode's expression turned solemn.

Several decades later, Moro escaped from Galactic Prison and released every criminal imprisoned there.

And the leader of those countless criminals was Saganbo.

As the head of the pirate crew and the ringleader among the escaped criminals, every criminal had been strengthened by Moro. Naturally, Saganbo was no exception.

More than that, Saganbo had been continuously strengthened by Moro, becoming extraordinarily powerful.

Although, even after being strengthened by Moro several times, he had still been utterly beaten by Goku in Ultra Instinct Sign, and ultimately collapsed and perished because he could not withstand the power Moro had bestowed upon him.

Still, while his strength could not rival Goku in Ultra Instinct Sign, he was undeniably formidable.

At this point in time, without Moro's repeated enhancements and decades earlier than that, Saganbo was surely far weaker than he had been then. Even so, the power he possessed was probably not something Rhode could match yet.

After all, that had been Goku facing Ultra Instinct Sign. Goku from that era could probably have crushed Frieza at full power in this era with a single strand of hair.

As for exactly what Power Tier Saganbo stood at, Rhode would need to learn more.

Still, Rhode had some guesses.

Though Frieza's title of "Galactic Emperor" was somewhat self-proclaimed, he was still someone who had run rampant across the universe.

Though Frieza had never truly displayed his power, King Cold's strength was beyond dispute.

Saganbo was merely the leader of a group of marauding Space Pirates, while King Cold and Frieza were rulers who dominated their own territories. Their statuses alone revealed the gap between them.

By that reasoning, Saganbo's strength should not surpass King Cold's, much less Frieza's.

As for more specific information, that depended on how much these Saganbo Pirates members knew about their boss.

As he thought, Rhode came to a rough conclusion and turned his gaze toward the Bear-headed Fatty within his sight.

This man was strong. To Rhode's senses, he was even a little stronger than Rhode in his Normal state, though not by much. More importantly, the fat man's Aura was scattered and unstable. Clearly, his control over his own power was limited.

He was a pretty good Opponent!

Though this man's control over his power was lacking, his strength exceeded Rhode's. He should be able to put some pressure on him.

"Hey, fatty, aren't you going to attack?"

Seeing the Bear-headed Fatty staring fixedly at him, Rhode grinned and provoked him.

Facing Rhode's provocation, Yunba's expression was grave. He snorted. "I have a name. My name is Yunba!"

Though he said that, Yunba merely retorted and did not make a move. He gritted his teeth, panic flooding his heart.

What Rhode had displayed earlier, when he destroyed the Spaceship in the blink of an eye and ruined everyone's equipment, had truly terrified him.

When Rhode had acted earlier, Yunba, whose Power Level was close to one million, had not even had time to react!

That was terrifying!

That was precisely why Shimorekka, the wisest among them, had ordered Yunba to keep Rhode occupied while he personally went to kill Aila.

After killing Aila as quickly as possible, he would Join Forces with Yunba to deal with the obviously unfathomable Rhode.

However, the plan had been good, but reality dealt Shimorekka a crushing blow.

The moment they truly exchanged blows, Shimorekka was instantly at a loss. Aila, who had appeared weaker than him, displayed combat power that was not the slightest bit inferior to his own!

At this moment, under Aila's frenzied assault, Shimorekka was hard-pressed just to defend himself. He could barely hold on and had no chance of breaking away to Join Forces with Yunba against the even more unfathomable Rhode.

"Oh, Yunba, you're members of the Saganbo Pirates, right?"

Seeing that Yunba did not dare attack and sensing the fear within his Aura, Rhode did not move immediately. Instead, he began gathering information.

"That's right. Our boss is far stronger than the Galactic Emperor Frieza!"

In response to Rhode's question, Yunba spoke in a muffled voice, hoping to use his boss's name to intimidate Rhode.

Stronger than Frieza?

Rhode did not believe Yunba's words at all. But after thinking it over, perhaps Yunba was not lying. After all, Frieza usually sat in his hover pod.

And probably only the handful of people closest to Frieza had ever seen his true form.

In other words, when Yunba claimed Saganbo was stronger than Frieza, he was comparing him to Frieza's state with a Power Level of 530,000.

Could Saganbo really be so weak, if he was only stronger than 530,000?

Rhode did not have a Scouter capable of measuring Power Levels in the hundreds of thousands or millions, but he could still infer a thing or two.

Though he could not determine his own Power Level precisely, it was probably around 800,000. And the fat man Yunba before him had an Aura even stronger than his, so he had to be around one million at the very least.

If one of Saganbo's underlings had a Power Level of over one million, could Saganbo be weak?

As he thought, Rhode did not mention Frieza. Instead, he brought up another name. "Do you know King Cold? Is your boss stronger than him?"

"King Cold!"

At the mention of King Cold's name, obvious fear flashed through Yunba's eyes. He did not dare say anything at all.

Though Yunba said nothing, Rhode had already gained a rough understanding from his reaction.

Rhode let out a soft breath. It seems Saganbo is stronger than I am right now, but he is nowhere near as strong as I imagined!

"Alright, one more question. Do you know the name Seven-Three?"

Having confirmed Saganbo's Power Tier, Rhode thought of the most troublesome artificial life-form from the Moro arc and asked Yunba for confirmation.

"Seven-Three?"

Hearing an utterly unfamiliar name, Yunba was clearly stunned. He had no idea why Rhode was asking about someone irrelevant.

Seeing Yunba's reaction, Rhode almost laughed at this guy. This fat man called Yunba really did not have much of a brain.

"Looks like Saganbo hasn't acquired this guy yet!"

Though Yunba had said nothing, Rhode had obtained the information he wanted.

As he spoke, Rhode's gaze passed Yunba and fell on Pasta and the other two, who were secretly trying to escape.

With a thought, his body vanished from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already blocking their path. He extended an arm and aimed his palm at Pasta, who stood at the front.

"No, don't! I have money! I'll give you all my money!"

Seeing the palm before him, Pasta felt unprecedented terror and suffocation. It was the great horror between life and death, the terror of a life about to reach its end!

Bang!

Boom!

Rhode remained unmoved by Pasta's pleas. An energy blast erupted from his palm, directly blasting the guy who had tried to rob him into nothingness.

After dealing with Pasta, Rhode looked at the other two pirates. Without saying anything, he unleashed his power and threw two punches.

Bang!

Bang!

The two figures exploded into bloody mist, dead beyond all doubt.

"Next, it's your turn!"

Having disposed of Pasta and the three pirates with a wave of his hand, Rhode moved and appeared before Yunba, calmly looking at him.
