Facing the Transformed Kazer

"May I ask who you are? I don't know why you are slaughtering our Scale-Head Clan; we only wish to take root and develop here!" Kasang stood on a high vantage point, launching a denunciation against Zhou Zilong.

Zhou Zilong stood atop a giant boulder, his gaze cold and sharp: "I have no objection to you developing here, but I happened to witness you kidnapping people from our planet. Moreover, the one you tried to kidnap today is my fiancée. I hate human traffickers more than anything, and as far as I'm concerned, the only place for traffickers is another world."

"Hmph, your strength is indeed quite impressive, but aren't you being a bit too arrogant? Don't forget we still have five hundred people here. If nothing else, a war of attrition alone would drain your stamina." Kasang's voice was laced with disdain and provocation, clearly angered by Zhou Zilong's contempt.

"To be honest, aside from that one standing next to you, I haven't really taken any of you seriously!" Zhou Zilong's lips curled into a cold sneer as he pointed a finger lightly at Kazer—a gesture of absolute confidence in his own strength, and an acknowledgment of Kazer's special status.

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed Kazer's eyes: "Hmph, you really are arrogant enough. Since that's the case, let me be the one to teach you a lesson!"

Before the words had even faded, Kazer had already transformed into a streak of light, surging toward Zhou Zilong with a violent aura.

Just as Kazer was about to reach him, Zhou Zilong, who had remained standing in place, swung a fist brimming with killing intent toward Kazer. That punch was as fast as lightning and unstoppable.

Unable to dodge in time, Kazer felt his body pulled by an invisible force; he was instantly turned into a straight line, flying backward until he slammed heavily into a distant rock, kicking up a cloud of dust.

There was not a hint of hesitation in Zhou Zilong's eyes. He knew the cruelty of battle and understood that one must never show mercy to an enemy. Just as he prepared to launch a second attack to end the fight once and for all, the unexpected happened.

"Biu! Biu!" Several dazzling beams of light tore through the sky, striking from all directions like lasers. Led by Kasang, several men aimed their laser weapons directly at Zhou Zilong.

Zhou Zilong quickly crossed his arms in front of his chest and thrust them outward. With a thunderous shout of "HA!", the attacks were instantly neutralized by an invisible force, dissipating into the air like stardust.

"Damn it, I was actually careless. I didn't expect this guy's combat power to be so high. My current power level is around 110,000, yet I couldn't even withstand a single blow. It seems this guy's combat power has reached at least 120,000 or 130,000. When did such a powerhouse appear in the universe? It seems only by transforming can I finish him off!" Kazer muttered to himself as he stood back up.

"Oh, God of Scale-Heads, please grant me power!" Kazer shouted, suddenly sounding a bit melodramatic.

Though Kazer's voice carried a hint of theatricality, it was filled with a longing for freedom and a pursuit of immense power.

The moment he finished speaking, the heavens seemed to respond to his call, and a dazzling white light instantly enveloped him.

Seeing this, Kasang and the others curled their lips into cold sneers, confidently believing that this was the prelude to Zhou Zilong's doom.

However, Zhou Zilong did not sit idly by. He quickly condensed a powerful energy wave in his hands, attempting to break the seemingly disadvantageous situation. But when the energy wave touched the layer of white light, it vanished without a trace, like a clay ox entering the sea.

After the light faded, Kazer's body underwent an astonishing transformation. His frame expanded rapidly, his head elongated backward, and his shape grew to resemble the second stage of Frieza's tall, imposing form. His skin turned a deep cyan, and his arms were covered in hard scales, as if he were a god of war stepped out of an ancient legend. When the light dispersed, a brand-new Kazer stood before them, his aura so intense that the very air seemed to solidify.

Zhou Zilong quickly activated his scouting skill.

Kazer: [Race] Scale-Head Star People [Height] 2.89 meters [Weight] 261kg [Potential Level] Elite (5,000 (min) - 500 million (max)) [Potential Value] 10 million [Potential Development Progress] 6.6% [Combat Power] 6.6 million (Base power 110,000) [Character Profile] Planet located at coordinates X900Y600 in the universe, subordinate to the Frieza Force. Harboring deep dissatisfaction with Frieza's rule, he has been using his clan's unique methods to quietly grow stronger, preparing to overthrow Frieza's reign at some point in the future.

"I didn't expect his combat power to increase by so much after transforming. But that's fine; with my current ability to use up to a tenfold Kaioken, dealing with this guy shouldn't be a problem. Still, I really need to increase my training after this is over, otherwise, it'll be hard to handle if another powerful enemy outside the plot appears!" Zhou Zilong muttered after scouting him.

"Kid, I didn't use my full strength earlier, which is why I almost fell for your tricks. But now, prepare to die!" Kazer's voice echoed across the empty battlefield with unquestionable majesty. Every breath he took seemed to shake the surrounding air, a display of his newfound power.

Zhou Zilong clenched his fists, his gaze firm. He responded calmly, his tone revealing neither arrogance nor servility: "Is that so? But I regret to inform you that I haven't even used my full power yet either. If anyone is going to die, it's you!"

"Hmph, then I'll give you one chance. Use your final trump card, and I will make you serve as my nourishment willingly," Kazer sneered. He did not believe this Zhou Zilong had any heaven-defying methods left that could pose a threat to him.

"Since you're asking me to use my techniques, then I won't be polite," Zhou Zilong's voice was calm and resolute, without a hint of hesitation.

"San-bai Kai-ou-ken (3x Kaioken)!"

Following Zhou Zilong's angry roar, a dormant power within him seemed to be completely awakened. He clenched his hands into fists and pulled them to his waist. Soon, a red aura began to surge around his body, as hot and dazzling as a raging flame.

That's right, what Zhou Zilong was preparing to use was a special technique that could forcibly increase combat power: the Kaioken, a "bug-like" technique that allowed for infinite multipliers as long as the user's physique was strong enough.

As the Kaioken activated, Zhou Zilong felt every cell in his body fill with explosive power. The surrounding air fluctuated violently due to the impact of this force, forming powerful storms that forced Kazer to retreat again and again, his eyes filled with disbelief.
