Protection Agreement
Sensing the overwhelming pressure emanating from Roland, the Kami's expression became complicated. This was a choice with no other option but to agree. Putting aside the Kami who might arrive at any moment from the distant universe, this child before him was not someone to be easily dealt with.
Moreover, the overwhelming aura that the other party was intentionally or unintentionally exuding was telling him that he had better agree.
"How was the division of planets determined, as you just mentioned?" With a helpless sigh, the Kami seized the opportunity to fill in the gaps in his knowledge of the universe.
"According to the classification of life forms on planets, planets with a maximum combat power below 1000 are low-level planets, those with a combat power between 1000 and 5000 are mid-level planets, and those with a combat power above 5000 are high-level planets. There are very few high-level planets in the universe, and not many mid-level planets either; the vast majority are low-level planets."
"So, combat strength..." This is yet another unfamiliar term.
Before the Kami being could finish speaking, Roland took out a Scouter from the Hyperdimensional Space and threw it out. "This is Scouter. It can detect the energy contained in a life form. Just press the button on it to automatically identify its combat power."
After glancing at the lens-type Scouter in his hand, the Kami hesitated for a moment before pressing the button on it. Immediately, a "beep beep" sound rang out, and numbers began to appear on the lens.
Point the Scouter at yourself, and the number "280" immediately appears on it.
Roland said, "Your combat power is 280. Of course, this is under normal circumstances. The Scouter can only detect the energy released by living beings and supplement the state when they are holding weapons based on intelligent analysis. It cannot detect hidden power."
What Roland said wasn't hard to understand. The Kami nodded after listening, slightly increasing his energy, and sure enough, the data on the Scouter changed. But no matter how it changed, it still only showed a few hundred combat power.
According to the classification method proposed by this Saiyan, Earth is merely a low-level planet.
A sudden sense of unease gripped the Kami's heart. What if Earth really had been discovered by aliens...? No, Earth's location had already been exposed, but its lack of resources had prevented it from attracting the attention of extraterrestrials. However, to entrust one's safety to the aliens' lack of concern was absolutely foolish.
After a moment of silence, seemingly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, the Kami had to be extremely cautious, as the fate of the entire Earth was at stake.
"You just said that we can exchange our Senzu Bean for your protection, but do you have the strength to protect us?" The Kami's cloudy eyes suddenly lit up.
Roland paused for a moment, then glanced coldly at the Kami. The Kami God felt a chill run down his spine from those dark, icy eyes, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
"Of course, Saiyan are a natural warrior race, and I alone am enough to protect you." Roland said with pride and confidence.
In an instant, a surge of intense energy burst forth like a dam bursting. Centered on Roland, the overwhelming energy rapidly swept across the entire Kami's Lookout. A wall of energy pressed down, the calm sky suddenly shattered, and the Kami's Lookout began to shake violently.
At the same time, the Scouter in the Kami's hand was beating wildly, with the value constantly rising.
The value quickly settled at 13700.
Experiencing the overwhelming aura up close, which seemed to materialize in an instant, everyone, including the Kami, the Korin, and Mr. Popo, felt a chill run through their bodies. It was as if a giant mountain was pressing down on them, the blood in their veins stopped flowing, and their faces turned deathly pale.
"Enough... enough! Quickly conceal your aura!" The Kami being's face stiffened, and he had to use his wooden staff to support himself so that he could stand up.
Seeing this, Roland nodded in satisfaction and then suppressed her aura.
"So, do you believe in my abilities now?"
"This is terrifying. He wasn't this powerful four years ago." Could it be that he has grown so much in just four years? The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. The Kami and the Korin looked at Roland as if he were a monster.
"Are all the masters in the universe like you?" The Kami asked bitterly.
"No, the vast majority of life in the universe is still weak. After all, a planet like Earth has billions of life forms, but truly powerful beings are few and far between—and the same is true across the entire universe; the number of strong beings is naturally not large. My strength is probably passable in the universe, but it's not among the top tier. You know, truly terrifying masters can destroy a planet with a single breath or a sneeze. I'm still far from that level."
Roland shook his head modestly, appearing quite humble. However, the message revealed in his words caused the Kami and others to gasp in shock, their eyes filled with horror.
"This universe is too dangerous... It's best for Earth to have less contact with those people." The Kami felt melancholy.
"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. How many Senzu Bean can you provide in a year? Based on the amount of Senzu Bean, our Saiyan race will determine the level of protection we provide."
Upon hearing this, the Kami turned his gaze to Korin, for only Senzu Bean knew how to grow Korin.
The Korin swallowed hard. "The Senzu Bean yield is only a few dozen a year. Even if I plant them at all my might, I can only increase it to fifty at most."
"This quantity is indeed a bit too little." The Kami's aged brows furrowed.
"Mr. Popo can help with the planting. If we move the Senzu Bean cultivation from Korin Tower to the Kami's Lookout, the yield can be increased significantly," Mr. Popo said.
"By working together from both sides, we can increase the production to 150," the Korin said.
Although the quantity is still low, this is the maximum production capacity they can provide. You should know that each Senzu Bean plant only produces four or five beans, so the yield is very low. If they can harvest 150 Senzu Bean each year, after deducting the ones used for seeds, they can probably keep about 120 beans.
"I wonder if this many Senzu Bean are enough?" the Kami asked.
Roland thought for a moment and said, "The quantity is indeed not much. Here's what we'll do: if you can provide 100 Senzu Bean every year, then I'll agree that from now on, I'll take responsibility for eliminating any enemy with a combat power of less than 2500 who enters Earth."
"2500 combat power?" The Kami frowned, somewhat hesitant.
He originally thought that if his side provided Senzu Bean, the other side would fully protect the safety of Earth.
"Isn't that enough? You should know that an alien with a combat power of 1000 can flatten the entire Earth, and a combat power of 2500 is also a considerable expert in the universe. Of course, if you have other resources, you can also exchange them with me." Roland said calmly and casually.
The Kami gritted his teeth and decided to treat it as protection money. Compared to before, the Senzu Bean hadn't been very useful, so using them as an exchange was a way of making use of "waste".
The Kami nodded in agreement, saying, "I understand. From now on, we will provide 100 Senzu Bean every year. Please protect Earth when it faces a crisis."
"Of course," Roland laughed heartily.
After agreeing to the agreement, Roland didn't forget to plunder the Senzu Bean from the Korin's place once more.
Just then, the void above the Kami's Lookout suddenly twisted, followed by a flash of light, and a graceful, ethereal young woman appeared beside Roland.
It's Sephiria.
"Where is this place?" After Sephiria appeared, her gaze fell on Roland. The thin air in the Kami's Lookout made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
