Just as everyone was rushing toward the evil aura.

A Time Machine suddenly appeared on Earth, slowly descending to the ground.

"Mother, we made it."

The hatch of the Time Machine slowly opened, and a youth carrying a sword on his back jumped out.

Wearing a trench coat with the Capsule Corp emblem, with light blue hair, he looked about sixteen or seventeen years old.

He gazed at this familiar place and said with excitement.

"Hey, what's going on here?"

"Did I come to the wrong timeline?"

"How are there three Saiyan auras?"

"That powerful aura is Master Gohan? Why does it feel so similar?"

"The other two Saiyan auras should be Uncle Goku and Dad."

No mistake, the one who arrived was Future Trunks, and right now he was full of question marks.

Logically, Uncle Goku shouldn't have returned to Earth yet.

And why was there only one evil aura?

Wasn't it supposed to be King Cold reviving Frieza, the two of them coming to Earth for revenge?

He shook his head, casting those thoughts aside.

Forget it for now.

He'd go over and see what was happening.

Whoosh!

Future Trunks turned the Time Machine back into a Capsule and stored it in his Capsule Case.

Then a burst of White Aura erupted from his body, and he flew straight toward the evil aura.

"Th-this power is...?"

"Trunks?"

Master Gohan sensed a Saiyan aura.

A youth with a Long Sword on his back suddenly appeared in his mind.

He didn't expect Future Trunks to show up too.

"This aura is a Saiyan."

"What the hell is going on?"

Vegeta also felt a very familiar Saiyan aura.

There weren't many Saiyans left, so who could it be?

It was as if the other party had appeared out of nowhere.

Vegeta didn't have time to think too much and flew toward the direction of the evil aura.

Because that powerful Saiyan aura was also heading there.

"Gohan, what's with this terrifying aura? It feels a lot like Frieza."

"And why do I sense another very familiar aura suddenly appearing out of nowhere, like a Saiyan?"

Goku looked at Son Gohan with a puzzled expression.

How did Earth suddenly get flooded with two incredibly powerful auras?

"We'll understand once we go see."

Son Gohan grabbed Goku's hand and teleported away using Instant Transmission.

Boom!

A massive Spaceship instantly landed on Earth.

"So this is Earth? A pretty nice planet."

"No wonder the Saiyans settled here."

The hatch slowly opened, and Cooler stepped out of the ship.

Feeling the planet's very light gravity, he said with a sigh of admiration.

Behind Cooler, his subordinates filed out one by one.

Salza, calm and analytical, with very high Battle Power—170,000.

Dore, formidable strength—185,000.

Neiz—163,000.

These three were like the Ginyu Force of the Frieza Force, Cooler's vanguard unit.

Swish!

Son Goku and his son were the first to arrive, using Instant Transmission.

Then Future Trunks was the second to arrive.

What's going on? Who is this guy that looks like Frieza?

Why is Uncle Goku here?

Did I really come to the wrong timeline?

Cooler was strong and burly, about the same height as Goku.

His usual posture was no different from an ordinary person's, occasionally crossing his arms over his chest, with blood-red eyes and purple-black lips.

Below his eyes on his face were two lines like bloody tears, and the purple shell on his body was glossy.

Each foot had three toes, and his footsteps made a "crack-crack" sound effect.

His entire body was covered in shell armor, effectively immune to all ordinary physical attack damage, mostly used to protect joints and bones, resistant to friction and impact.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to deliver yourselves to my doorstep."

"Saiyans, allow me to introduce myself. I am Frieza's brother, 'Cooler'."

"I've come to Earth to wipe out all you Saiyans."

"The strongest warrior in the universe can only be from our Frost Demon Clan."

Cooler looked at Son Goku, his son, and Future Trunks as he introduced himself.

Coming to Earth to settle a grudge, he felt that Frieza and King Cold had disgraced the family's honor.

He had to eliminate all the Saiyans and reclaim that honor.

What?

Frieza's brother? What's going on?

Did I really come to the wrong time?

Shouldn't it be King Cold and Mecha Frieza coming to Earth for revenge?

Where did Frieza get a brother?

"Hello, Trunks."

Son Gohan didn't pay any attention to Cooler's words.

He walked up to Trunks and greeted him in a voice only the two of them could hear.

In truth, in his past life, he had also felt great pain for Future Trunks, fighting alone in a hopeless timeline.

Future Trunks from the Future Timeline was a Saiyan who never fooled around.

"What's going on?"

"Master Gohan actually knows me?"

Future Trunks was utterly shocked.

He never expected that Master Gohan from this timeline would recognize him.

Could it be that I didn't come to the wrong timeline?

"I once traveled through time just like you, so I know your background."

Son Gohan casually brushed it off with a vague explanation.

Trunks wanted to ask more about what was happening.

A scolding voice cut off their conversation.

"Bastards, I'm speaking here, and you're down there chatting like it's a family reunion."

"You bunch of Wild Monkeys, you have no manners at all. I'm going to kill you."

Cooler saw Son Gohan and Future Trunks whispering to each other.

His eyes turned cold, and he raised his finger, pointing at Son Gohan and Trunks.

Two Death Beams shot toward Son Gohan and Trunks respectively.

Son Gohan also fired two Death Beams at Cooler.

Trunks hurled an Energy Blast over as well.

Cooler's Death Beams and Son Gohan's Death Beams canceled each other out.

And Trunks's energy blast arrived in an instant.

Cooler raised a hand and swatted the energy away.

Whoosh.

"Bastard, are you a Saiyan?"

"Why is your hair light blue?"

Vegeta immediately confronted Future Trunks, demanding an explanation.

He had never seen a Saiyan with light purple hair before.

"Y-yes, Mr. Vegeta. My hair is natural."

Future Trunks stammered in reply.

His head drooped slightly, not daring to meet Vegeta's gaze.

Tears swirled in his excited eyes, refusing to fall.

I finally get to see Dad.

"How is it? Disappointed?"

Son Gohan patted Future Trunks on the shoulder and asked.

"I feel really happy. Just like Mother said."

Future Trunks pulled himself together and answered with a bright face.

His childhood wish had been to see the father with the fierce pride his mother always described.

Because when he was very young, the Vegeta of the Future Timeline had been killed by the Androids.

Whoosh. Whoosh.

At that moment, Piccolo and the others had all arrived on the battlefield.

Before they could even ask what was going on, They saw the Frieza-lookalike bark an order.

"Kill them all. Leave no one alive."

At Cooler's command, the Armored Squadron behind him sprang into action instantly.

Like a swarm of locusts, they filled the sky and charged at Vegeta and the others.

Son Gohan flew into the air. These enemies weren't even worth his effort.

Future Trunks flew up after him.

He still wanted to find out what was happening here.

But now was clearly not the time to ask.

The two left the battlefield and watched the fight from the sidelines.

But Cooler spotted their departure and flew after them.

"Kill! Leave not a single Saiyan alive!"

Salza, Dore, and Neiz—three trusted lieutenants—engaged Vegeta and Son Goku.

According to their Scouters, these two had the highest Battle Power on the field.

Piccolo and the others also joined the fray.

After a year of training, their Battle Power had risen considerably.

They planned to use this battle to test the results of that year's hard work.

In an instant, flames shot into the sky, and cries of agony rang out everywhere.

As soon as the fighting started, a constant stream of system notifications echoed in Son Gohan's mind.

[Ding, Battle Power attribute 1000 dropped ahead.]

[Battle Power attribute +100 dropped.]
