Zhou Zilong's Plan

"Oh, Zilong, I forgot to tell you—Ilis was kidnapped by those Lizard People. Hurry and go save her!" Bulma's voice was tinged with anxiety.

"Okay, got it. Don't worry, I'll save her," Zhou Zilong replied curtly, his eyes instantly sharpening like an eagle's.

"Yuena, please take Bulma to the room where I trained in seclusion. Don't come out until I get back," Zhou Zilong ordered, his tone leaving no room for argument. He was ready to wipe out these enemies who had no part in the Dragon Ball storyline.

"Yes, Boss!" Yuena answered, then led Bulma toward a safe area.

"Xiao Ling, can you block information from this area or something?" Zhou Zilong asked as he took to the air with the Flight Technique, communicating with Xiao Ling through their minds.

Before eliminating Sada just moments earlier, Zhou Zilong had scanned him for information.

Since Sada wasn't a particularly important character, Zhou Zilong had only checked the forces he belonged to besides his race, and discovered that he was also affiliated with the Frieza Force.

As someone familiar with the Dragon Ball storyline, Zhou Zilong knew that the Frieza Force was an enormous organization. Before Frieza was killed, it had countless cannon fodder among its affiliates.

The Frieza Force might not pay much attention if he killed one or two unimportant members, but if he wiped out too many at once, or killed someone with a decent amount of fighting power...

That would inevitably draw the Frieza Force's attention. Although Zhou Zilong currently had a power level of three million, making him a decent fighter in this universe,

he was still far too insignificant compared to Frieza, who had a power level of 120 million. So he had to proceed carefully if he wanted to grow stronger.

"Don't worry, Zilong. I'll block the information and make it look as though the Scale-Head Star People invaded a remote planet with decent fighters and were wiped out by the planet's inhabitants," Xiao Ling replied promptly, putting Zhou Zilong at ease.

After receiving that assurance and reviewing the memories he had read earlier, Zhou Zilong gradually wiped out many of the Scale-Head Clan's underlings.

"I've wiped out everyone outside. It's time to finish them off in one fell swoop." Nearly an hour into the operation, Zhou Zilong muttered to himself, his eyes filled with resolve. He knew the real challenge had only just begun. He had to strike deep into enemy territory, go straight for the leader, and nip the crisis in the bud.

Inside the Guardian of Earth's Lookout, complex emotions flickered in the Guardian's eyes.

"I'd originally wanted to warn him, but I didn't expect him to have already taken action. I never imagined Earth would be targeted so early. If he weren't here, this planet would be in danger!" The Guardian's quiet words were an unspoken expression of praise for Zhou Zilong, as well as concern for Earth's future.

Meanwhile, at the Scale-Head Clan's base, Kasang stood pale-faced before a screen, his eyes filled with anxiety and unease. He took a deep breath and hurried toward the secret chamber where Kazer was absorbing life force to strengthen himself.

"Lord Kazer, we have a problem!" Kasang's trembling voice broke the silence in the chamber.

"Tell me. What happened?" Kazer furrowed his brow slightly. His deep, powerful voice carried an unquestionable authority.

"All the subordinates we sent out to carry out the Revival Plan have lost contact within the past hour. According to the radar, their Scouters all stopped working at the same time. It's clear that some powerful being defeated them one by one," Kasang said, his words full of worry.

Hearing this, a flicker of surprise crossed Kazer's eyes, and then a playful smile curled his lips. "I didn't expect this seemingly ordinary planet to conceal such a powerful being. But perhaps this is an unexpected bonus for me."

"My lord, according to the latest radar data, that unknown fighter is rapidly approaching us. He's expected to arrive in three minutes," Kasang added, his voice urgent.

Kazer chuckled and spoke excitedly. "It's fine. No matter how strong he is, he can't be stronger than Frieza's men Dodoria and Zarbon. Besides, another decent source of nourishment has come to me!"

The excitement in his eyes made it seem as if Zhou Zilong were already his for the taking.

"Stop! You're not allowed here!" A Scale-Head Clan guard pointed a laser rifle at Zhou Zilong as he landed.

"This is the last thing you'll ever say." Zhou Zilong didn't stop. His voice was calm and cold as he vanished in a flash, appearing in front of the guard like a specter. A blue ki blast formed in his palm and exploded instantly. With a loud bang, the guard's scales shattered, and the powerful shock wave made the air around them tremble.

"Xiao Ling, block off the area within a fifty-kilometer radius. I don't want my ki affecting too wide an area!" Zhou Zilong communicated with Xiao Ling telepathically.

"Don't worry, I've already blocked it off. I've also added an invisible protective barrier, so your ki won't cause landslides or anything like that," Xiao Ling replied promptly and precisely, as if everything were under control.

With Xiao Ling's assurance, Zhou Zilong had no more worries. The power within him began to boil, and waves of powerful ki surged from his body, sweeping toward the Scale-Head Clan members around him. It was a one-sided slaughter, but there was no hesitation or pity in Zhou Zilong's eyes. He knew that only by ending this battle quickly could he put a stop to everything.

"Eight thousand, eight thousand one, eight thousand two... This guy can keep increasing his power level! He can change it without even transforming. What a rare ability!" Kazer watched Zhou Zilong's power change through his Scouter, stunned.

"Once I absorb him, I'll have that ability too. How wonderful. Heh heh heh!" Kazer's lips curled into a cold, greedy smile.

Facing the growing number of enemies, Zhou Zilong took a deep breath. The energy inside him reached an unprecedented peak.

He cupped his hands together and rose into the air.

"Ka~me~ha~me~ha!" Accompanied by the Dragon Ball World's signature battle cry, a blue-white Kamehameha packed with destructive power erupted from his palms, aimed straight at the squad that had just rushed out from behind cover.

The beam tore through space as it swept past. The squad members didn't even have time to react before they were erased by its terrifying energy, leaving behind only wreckage and billowing clouds of dust.
