The Pui Clan
"Tell me first, what is the treasure of Planet Zien?"
"I don't know exactly what it is either." Jaco remained kneeling, answering all of Roland's questions.
"You were in charge of escorting it, and you don't even know what the treasure is?"
Jaco widened his eyes. "Trust my professional ethics. The treasure of Planet Zien has always been kept in an iron box, and I haven't opened it to look inside."
"How can we investigate West City even know what it is?" Tights looked at Jaco suspiciously.
Jaco got up from the ground, smugly saying, "I expected this to happen, so I secretly installed a tracking device under the box. I know their whereabouts perfectly well. As long as you're willing to help me, I can definitely get the treasure back."
Tights taken aback. "You've actually been clever for once."
Roland said calmly, "He didn't believe in his own abilities, which led to the accident."
"Who said that? This patrolman is just taking precautions..." Jaco argued, his tone gradually softening. "Okay, I'm worried about accidents happening along the way, after all, I've encountered quite a few like this before."
After hearing Jaco's words, Roland felt even more contempt for him. At this moment, he frowned. The name "Planet Zien" sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but after searching through his memory, he had a vague impression of it, but he just couldn't remember it.
"You mentioned the Planet Zien, is it inhabited by a race called the Pui?" Tights, who was next to Roland, suddenly asked. Jaco looked at her and nodded. "That's right, the Pui Clan. So you know about them too."
"I happened to see it in the Galactic Patrol's database."
Some time ago, in order to gather material, she went through a lot of documents in the Galactic Patrol organization, and the Planet Zien was one of the ones she knew about. The Planet Zien is a very powerful planet in the Galaxy. It is a high-gravity planet and is quite mysterious because it rarely contacts the outside world. Very little is known about it.
"Isn't the Pui Clan supposed to be a powerful race? They can't even protect their own treasure?"
"There was a rebellion within their ranks. It's said that a very powerful Pui defected to the Demon Clan, destroying many facilities on Planet Zien. The Demon Clan's attacks kept them busy, and if it weren't for that, given Planet Zien's strength, their treasure wouldn't have been lost." Jaco wasn't clear on the details; he'd only heard this from Inspector Merus when he and Inspector Merus were searching for Planet Zien's treasure.
Planet Zien, the Pui Clan.
It was them.
Roland suddenly realized who the other person was.
If he's right, then the Pui Clan are Space Demon who look very much like Frieza's third form. In the original work, there was a Pui was controlled by the evil sorcerer Babidi and served as a warrior on the first level of Babidi's spaceship, but was easily defeated by Vegeta in his normal state.
Judging from what Jaco is saying, Pui, who has sided with the Demon Clan, is very likely the one controlled by Babidi.
More importantly, the Pui Clan were combat life forms created by the ancient Alta based on the genes of Space Demon, and they gradually formed a civilization after the Alta declined.
Therefore, the treasure guarded by the Pui Clan might be related to the ancient Alta.
Suddenly recalling the ancient scenes he had seen on the Saibaman Planet and the God-Making Planet, a brilliant light flashed in Roland's eyes. Anything related to the ancient Alta was no simple matter.
The Red Dragon Ball that appeared on the Saibaman Planet was also a sacred object of the ancient Alta, which once greatly helped him. It can be said that the reason why he was able to control the power of the Great Ape and enter the Mimic Ape Transformation was due to the help of the Red Dragon Ball, and the power of the Red Dragon Ball is still helping him to this day.
Although the treasure of the Pui Clan may not necessarily be related to the Alta, it is still worth Roland's personal investigation.
"Where is the treasure of Planet Zien Jaco?"
Jaco looked delighted. "Ah, you're willing to help me?"
Roland nodded, her gaze becoming distant. "I can help you, but you have to open it and let me see it first after you find the treasure."
"This is against the rules..."
"What are you hesitating for? The treasure is already in someone else's hands, and it might have already been opened. Look at it from another angle: just think of it as Roland taking back the opened treasure and then handing it over to you. Isn't that the same thing?" Tights didn't know why Roland wanted to see the treasure of Planet Zien, but she knew he must have his reasons.
After a moment's hesitation, Jaco finally nodded. If letting Roland take a look could help him find the treasure, he wouldn't lose anything; it was better than being scolded by the Galactic King.
"Alright, but we agreed that you can only take a look. If it's less than what's available, I won't be able to explain it to Galactic King."
Tights. "It's already quite generous of you that Roland agreed to help you; you have quite a lot of demands."
"This is just my professional ethics."
Jaco scratched his head, but was met with a disdainful sneer from Tights.
"Alright, bring up the location you installed. I'm worried that if it goes on for too long, the other party will find out." Roland glanced at Jaco, just in case things got complicated. Jaco realized what she meant and immediately pressed the monitor on his wrist. Instantly, a virtual image appeared in mid-air, a vast Star Map.
"This is the location. The other side is a fairly large group of space pirates. Roland, you need to be careful," Jaco said.
"Don't worry."
Roland waved his hand, his deep eyes gazing at the Star Map image in mid-air, quickly locking onto the location of the treasure. "Jaco, you can survive in a vacuum, right?"
Jaco paused for a moment, "Of course, these are basic abilities for Galactic Patrol. You know, not just anyone can be a patrol officer..."
"That's fine then."
Roland recalled that when Jaco was idle, he liked to pilot his spaceship to remote asteroids and build blocks out of strange rocks. There was no reason why he couldn't survive in space.
"Tights, I'm leaving now."
There was no time to listen to Jaco's rambling. Roland said goodbye to Tights, grabbed him, and used Instant Transmission to disappear from Tights's sight in the blink of an eye. Tights stared at the spot where the two had vanished, but her eyes showed no worry whatsoever.
She knew Roland's strength; he rarely encountered an opponent in the universe. If she could have a passionate battle with him, she would probably be even happier. So, humming a little tune, she went to Ifrivi's place to take care of Luo Fei.
On the other side of the starry sky, Roland and Jaco suddenly appeared in a place that resembled a desert. The surrounding area was full of bare rocks. The planet had no atmosphere, and the vacuum environment was extremely cold. Occasionally, cosmic breezes carrying various energy rays would blow across the surface, stirring up clouds of fine dust.
"Ahhh, where are we?"
"Isn't that the place your monitor is showing? Look there, isn't that our target?" Roland pointed in a direction with a calm expression. Following the direction he pointed, Jaco saw several triangular-shaped spaceships docked there.
"Ah... yes, they're the ones who stole the treasure."
P. S.: Do you prefer the two chapters combined or separate? In my experience, combining them gives readers the feeling that there are fewer updates, which will attract more readers to join the fandom.
