Age 737.
Planet Vegeta.
Night had fallen. Luo Tian looked up at the stars filling the sky and the fleet of spaceships suspended in the void, remaining silent.
This day had finally arrived.
Luo Tian knew that in a short while, it would be the end of Planet Vegeta. Aside from a few select Saiyans, every Saiyan on this planet would vanish along with it, turning into cosmic dust.
Of course, Luo Tian would be perfectly fine, even if the entire universe were to be destroyed.
Yes, Luo Tian had transmigrated.
When Luo Tian woke up, he discovered he had transmigrated into the Dragon Ball World.
Luo Tian had not become a Saiyan or an Earthling; instead, he had been formed from the essence of the universe, becoming an Angel.
Born as a god.
A true god!
Furthermore, he was born with an endless lifespan.
His innate strength was nothing short of astonishing.
Although there was still a slight gap between him and a God of Destruction, one must not forget that Luo Tian had only just been born.
To possess strength infinitely close to a God of Destruction right at birth meant that with proper training, surpassing a God of Destruction would be incredibly easy.
After an Angel is born, they possess the appearance of an adult, which remains unchanged for their entire life.
However, Luo Tian was a slight exception; his skin tone differed from other Angels. He did not have blue skin, but yellow skin.
After an Angel is born, they must go out to gain experience.
Once an Angel completes their training, they can reach a corresponding level of strength and take over a new universe.
According to the Grand Priest, the growth of an Angel is divided into four stages.
Each stage is further divided into three levels.
Luo Tian was currently at the first level of the first stage.
Through his training in the mortal world, Luo Tian would gradually grow into the second stage.
In the words of the Grand Priest, so-called training meant using your experiences, insights, cultivation, and emotions in the mortal world to comprehend your Angelic power, thereby increasing your strength.
Currently, most of the official Angels of the various universes had already reached the second stage.
A small number of Angels had already reached the third stage.
Only the Grand Priest was said to have reached the fourth stage.
The Grand Priest had said that above the fourth stage, there was a fifth stage, which was the goal he had been pursuing.
As for the Gods of Destruction, they possessed the power of Destruction, which was fundamentally different from Angelic power.
In terms of strength, it was equivalent to the first stage of an Angel.
Luo Tian had subsequently chosen to conduct his training on Planet Vegeta.
Planet Vegeta during that period was just when King Vegeta, the father of Vegeta, had ascended to the throne.
On this planet, Luo Tian had witnessed the Saiyans go from prosperity to decline, gradually heading toward destruction.
Regarding this, Luo Tian felt no particular emotion; it was merely a stop in his Angelic training.
At this moment, on Planet Vegeta, more and more Saiyans were being summoned back.
"Luo Tian... you feel it too, don't you?"
Just then, a voice rang out from behind Luo Tian.
"It's Bardock," Luo Tian said without turning his head.
The one who appeared behind Luo Tian was none other than Bardock, the father of Son Goku.
Bardock's appearance was extremely similar to Son Goku's; the only differences were the long scar on his face and the furry tail behind him.
Luo Tian had stayed on Planet Vegeta for a long time, so he was acquainted with most of the Saiyans on the planet.
And Bardock could be considered one of the few friends Luo Tian had on this world.
"When I was returning, I saw Frieza's spaceship hovering not far outside Planet Vegeta! He summoned us all back; there must be some massive conspiracy!" Bardock said in a deep voice.
"Mm-hmm, you're right," Luo Tian nodded lightly.
"So it really is like that!" Bardock's expression changed slightly.
"Frieza is wary of a Super Saiyan or a Super Saiyan God being born among the Saiyans, which is why he summoned all the Saiyans back—to wipe them out in one fell swoop," Luo Tian smiled.
Bardock: "..."
You're saying that so calmly.
"When I was on my way back, they were indeed discussing the Super Saiyan and the Super Saiyan God," Bardock pondered. "But these are just legends. Does Frieza really believe in such hearsay?"
"Sometimes, legends can become reality," Luo Tian smiled.
Bardock was speechless.
You say things in a way that leaves me with no response.
"I absolutely cannot let Frieza succeed!" Bardock gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly. "I've spent these years fighting on alien planets, surviving countless brushes with death, and my combat power has reached an unprecedented height! If a Super Saiyan truly exists, then I feel I must be infinitely close to it."
"Oh?" Luo Tian glanced back at Bardock.
You really dare to say that.
You are already infinitely close to a Super Saiyan?
With your measly combat power, Frieza could blow you away just by passing gas.
"Combat power of 15,000. Not bad, Bardock; you've already surpassed King Vegeta." Luo Tian only had to look at Bardock to sense his power level.
Bardock was stunned.
"How... how did you know? You aren't wearing a scouter." Bardock looked at Luo Tian in astonishment. "Did that guy Tora tell you?"
Luo Tian smiled and didn't answer the question.
"Do you think that with my current combat power, I'm still no match for Frieza?" Bardock asked.
"You're far from it. Frieza's combat power... never mind, I won't say it. I'm afraid of crushing your spirit." Luo Tian sighed.
Bardock: "..."
Leaving things half-said is truly infuriating.
"It's fine, I'm mentally prepared," Bardock gritted his teeth.
Luo Tian held up one finger.
"What? 100,000?" Bardock's face changed color.
Luo Tian shook his head.
"Stop joking, how could it possibly be 1,000,000?" Bardock was dumbfounded.
Luo Tian continued to shake his head.
Bardock: "..."
"Could it be 10,000,000? That's impossible! How could his combat power reach such a high level?" Bardock was terrified.
"Too low," Luo Tian replied.
Bardock rolled his eyes, nearly fainting on the spot.
"Frieza's combat power is 100 million," Luo Tian replied. "To be precise, it should be 120 million; I just went ahead and rounded off that 20 million for you."
Bardock's body began to tremble violently, his face as pale as a sheet of paper.
Frieza's combat power... is this existence meant to defy the heavens?
"Alright, I only told you this so you would recognize the facts instead of living in your own dreams," Luo Tian sighed.
"This, this, this... are you joking?" Bardock said in a deep voice. "I think this is simply impossible. A combat power of 10,000 can destroy a planet. If it's 100 million... he could destroy an entire galaxy."
"Destroying a galaxy is still a bit difficult," Luo Tian chuckled, not continuing the topic.
"Then what about you? Luo Tian, what is your combat power?" Bardock asked.
"Uh, I don't have combat power," Luo Tian shook his head.
What would an Angel need combat power for?
Bardock was speechless.
You say you have no combat power?
Who would believe that?
"Anyway, just remember: no matter how powerful Frieza is, he isn't worth a single slap from me," Luo Tian smiled.
Bardock fell silent.
There's no way to talk to you.
Can we not brag?
I agree that you are very powerful.
After all, among the many Saiyans, you are an exceptionally outstanding existence.
But to say you could slap Frieza to death...
"But then again, Luo Tian, that silver-white hair of yours is truly eye-catching. I have never seen a Saiyan with silver-white hair before," Bardock said, changing the subject with a smile.
"If you live long enough, perhaps one day you will see another Saiyan with silver-white hair..." Luo Tian said with a smile. "I believe you are very familiar with that person."
"Who?" Bardock was stunned, a look of confusion appearing on his face.
"Bardock, if I were you, I wouldn't be looking for someone to chat with here. Instead, I would find a way to send your son Kakarot away as soon as possible. That way, even if Planet Vegeta is destroyed, he might luckily survive," Luo Tian smiled. "Perhaps one day, he will avenge us Saiyans."
Bardock: "..."
Stop joking around!
My son Kakarot?
A little guy with a combat power of only 2...
But Luo Tian is right; I should find a way to let Kakarot survive.
I don't expect him to avenge us; as long as he can live a healthy life on that planet, that is enough.
"What about you, Luo Tian? What are your plans?" Bardock asked.
"I intend to live and die with this planet." Luo Tian smiled.
Bardock: "..."
Why do I get the feeling that you've seen through everything?
Forget it, do as you please.
"Alright, I understand." Bardock nodded solemnly. "Kakarot's combat power is only 2. I believe that even if he leaves in a spaceship, Frieza shouldn't be able to sense his presence. Perhaps he really can escape this catastrophe."
"Go on then." Luo Tian smiled.
After speaking, Bardock immediately bid farewell to Luo Tian and returned to his home in a hurry.
"Gine, I'm back." Bardock called out.
"Did you go see Luo Tian?" Gine smiled brightly.
"Yes, I had a chat with him." Bardock nodded. "I'm afraid things are even more troublesome than I imagined. We need to make plans as soon as possible."
"Even Luo Tian said so?" Gine's expression changed.
Bardock did not speak, looking up at the stars outside the window.
A brief silence.
"By the way, where is Raditz?" Bardock asked.
"Raditz has already become a combatant. He went to another planet to partner with Prince Vegeta. It's very far from here, so he hasn't returned yet," Gine replied.
"Prince Vegeta? Partnering with such a troublesome guy?" Bardock was speechless, then asked, "What about Kakarot? Is he still in the incubation machine?"
"Yes, it's been three years. It's time for him to come out," Gine nodded. "Let's go see him."
Bardock nodded.
Arriving in the bedroom, Bardock saw Kakarot inside the incubation machine.
"He's grown so much..." Bardock sighed.
