Five Years

While Roland was undergoing arduous training on the God-Making Planet...

On the Frieza Legion's side, the turmoil caused by Dodoria's disappearance has lasted for a long time. Everyone in the legion is on edge, constantly investigating, but they still haven't found Dodoria's whereabouts.

Because they had just lost a formidable general like Cui a few years prior, Frieza showed great concern about Dodoria's disappearance.

Frieza's headquarters planet.

Zarbon and Kikono were all present, and even the Ginyu Force, which had been fighting abroad, had been recalled to headquarters. Not far away, Captain Ginyu sat in a luxurious chair, with Recoome, Burter, and other members of the Ginyu Force standing beside him.

These people wore smiles and looked relaxed, remaining calm and composed even in front of Frieza.

Frieza sat atop his small flying vehicle, a tail swaying beneath him. His cold, stern face was filled with murderous intent. Even without being able to sense his presence, those present could feel the rage brewing within Frieza's chest from the chilling aura emanating from him.

"Dodoria has been out of contact for quite some time now. First Cui, then Dodoria —we've lost two highly capable individuals in quick succession. Perhaps some force is targeting us!"

Frieza's face remained calm, but his demonic, blood-red eyes swept over everyone present, and instantly, the temperature in the room plummeted.

Those present tensed up, all treating the situation with extreme caution.

Captain Ginyu calmly replied, "King Frieza, there's no need to be angry. While the events in Dodoria are regrettable, the universe is not lacking in highly capable individuals. I think we should be focusing more on the situation in the eastern part of the North Galaxy right now."

"Captain Ginyu, have you encountered some formidable opponent?" Frieza asked in surprise.

The Ginyu Force is Frieza's strongest fighting force, an elite unit left to Frieza by King Cold before his retirement. Although small in number, with only five members, each member possesses considerable strength. Captain Ginyu, in particular, boasts an astonishing 120,000 power level, making him virtually unmatched in the entire North Galaxy.

Frieza has always been quite polite to the members of the Ginyu Force.

Captain Ginyu said, "He's definitely a troublesome guy. I think his name is... something like 'Second.' In our initial exchange, I was almost injured by him. He's skilled in magic, not very tall, but possesses considerable strength."

"Oh, no wonder our attempts to conquer the east have often failed. I didn't expect there to be someone there who even Captain Ginyu found troublesome."

Frieza smiled faintly, his interest having shifted from Dodoria's mysterious disappearance to the person Captain Ginyu had mentioned. After all, that fat guy Dodoria had been missing for so long, he was probably already dead. Rather than focusing his energy on a dead man, it was better to move on to something more interesting.

Of course, although Frieza said this, he didn't really take the person Captain Ginyu mentioned seriously. With his overwhelming strength, he was, without exaggeration, qualified to stand high above like a god and look down on the rise and fall of all kinds of people in the universe.

Frieza's immense power allows him to remain calm and composed in the face of anything.

"It's not too difficult, it's just that some of the magic is a bit strange." Captain Ginyu said casually.

"Heh heh, there are a few valuable planets to the east. Should I go and deal with them personally? Come to think of it, it's been several years since I've personally taken action." Frieza's cold, blood-red eyes flashed with a few rays of light, his expression extremely calm.

Captain Ginyu shook his head. "There's no need for the King to intervene. We, the Ginyu Force, will handle that minor issue."

Frieza nodded. "We need to get rid of them as soon as possible; there are quite a few valuable planets over there."

"That's natural."

Captain Ginyu laughed heartily, his face radiating confidence.

"Hmm." Frieza hummed in response, then turned to look at Zarbon. "Mr. Zarbon, headquarters will be without Mr. Dodoria from now on. You'll need to take on more of the work. You can issue a conscription order and select some reliable warriors from the Legion to join headquarters."

"Yes, sir."

Zarbon nodded gracefully and stood casually to the side.

The distant East Galaxy, that mysterious and unpredictable world.

God-Making Planet.

"Whoa!"

"Kiss!"

A Great Ape roared to the sky, thrusting its hands forward, unleashing Ki Blast. When the Ki Blast had traveled over a thousand meters, the Great Ape Roland twisted its hands, and with a "whoosh," the Ki Blast changed direction, shooting straight into the sky. Then, with another series of maneuvers, the Ki Blast descended from the sky, attacking itself.

Roland clenched her fists and placed them against her chest in a defensive posture.

Rumble!!

The energy surge slammed into the Great Ape, causing the ground to suddenly collapse. The shattered area instantly expanded to a radius of ten thousand meters. The energy, enough to destroy an entire planet, erupted, creating a massive mushroom cloud. Like a stellar explosion, blinding light and shockwaves surged outwards from the point of blast in all directions.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, the Great Ape Roland stood unharmed in place, his sturdy body having withstood the energy of the planet's destruction, but the surrounding scenery had been completely altered.

There were no ferocious beasts on the God-Making Planet that could provide Roland with combat opportunities, so he could only continuously bombard himself with energy.

This self-destructive training continuously tempered the Great Ape's physical strength.

Suddenly, Roland aimed at a continuous mountain range ahead, opened his mouth wide, let out a long roar, and a surge of energy shot out as light flashed.

Boom!!

The blazing sun suddenly rose from the horizon like a supernova explosion, eclipsing all other light. Energy currents tore through space, creating concentric vacuums. In the distance, the towering mountains and precipitous peaks, stretching for thousands of miles, were instantly reduced to dust upon contact with the high-purity energy impact, leaving only a circular hole.

After a short while, the Artificial Moon's effect gradually faded, and Roland returned to human form, her body floating in mid-air.

With a slight frown, Roland was experiencing the power he possessed in his Great Ape form.

"Under the stimulation of Vital Energy, the power of my Bloodline has indeed improved, and the Great Ape's strength has also increased significantly compared to before, but there is still a long way to go before it is perfected."

Thinking of this, Roland sat down quietly, then used her Psychic Technique to attract the Vital Energy in the air and apply Vital Energy to her tail.

Roland had only mastered the Great Ape's rationality through his own cultivation, so he had to be extremely careful during the process. Any carelessness could cause the power within his body to go berserk.

Vital Energy flowed continuously into the cells of his tail, causing his blood to flow faster and a surge of violent and boundless energy to rise. Roland's consciousness gradually became immersed in it, and the image of the enormous Great Ape reappeared in the depths of his mind.

Vast, ancient, and brutal!

Immense strength!

The Great Ape's imposing and domineering figure looked down from above, its blood-red eyes filled with savagery. It was as if it were a voice from ancient times, its deep roar sending chills down one's spine.

Roland forced himself to keep staring into the image of the Great Ape, constantly exploring the power within his body.

Time flies and keeps flowing by.

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
