"BOOM!"
A thunderous explosion erupted high in the sky.
The glowing sphere that had just been condensed into an Artificial Full Moon suddenly detonated in mid-air, scattering into golden specks of light that rained down.
Vegeta lay on the ground, staring blankly at the shattered Artificial Full Moon, his heart sinking into total despair.
The Great Ape transformation was impressive, capable of increasing one's energy tenfold!
But its weaknesses were simply too many!
Anyone who knew the weaknesses of a Saiyan could easily force us back to our original form.
This is a disaster!
"That was close, that was close!" Cui breathed a sigh of relief, stepping forward to grab Vegeta by the hair and hoisting him high into the air.
Vegeta winced in pain, but he felt waves of weakness washing over him, leaving him unable to fight back.
"You were trying to turn into a Great Ape just now, weren't you?" Cui sneered. "What a pity! I accidentally shattered your Artificial Full Moon! I'm afraid you won't have the chance to transform now!"
Vegeta gritted his teeth, remaining silent.
"But then again, you Saiyans' transformation is truly pathetic! As long as one destroys the moon or cuts off your tail, it can be easily stopped! Am I right, Prince Vegeta?" As Cui spoke, he slapped Vegeta across the face twice.
Several of Vegeta's teeth were knocked out, and the shadow cast upon his young heart grew ever larger.
"Hmph, too weak! And you call yourselves a warrior race? You make me laugh!" Cui tossed Vegeta onto the ground.
Vegeta gritted his teeth and wobbled to his feet.
"Still able to stand?" Cui chuckled. "Do you want to keep fighting?"
Vegeta said nothing.
Keep fighting?
I'll be beaten to death by him!
Damn it!
A difference of 2,000 in combat power!
How is the gap so wide?
Cui shook his head in contempt, having no intention of killing Vegeta.
After all, Lord Frieza told me not to kill him!
He said he still had use for him.
Cui couldn't quite understand it.
What use could a weakling like this possibly have?
I'll go secretly wipe out the other Saiyan now!
I should finish the mission Lord Frieza entrusted to me first.
Cui pressed the button on the Scouter over his eye to check Carnegie's location.
Hm?
This guy's combat power is dropping rapidly!
Is he about to die?
How boring!
I went to such great lengths to chase them here, only to kill one person!
No, I'd better go over and confirm it!
"Vegeta, you're pathetic!" Cui walked up and patted Vegeta's face with a wild laugh.
Vegeta trembled with rage, his youthful face filled with nothing but resentment.
"I'm off!" After dropping those words, Cui immediately shot into the sky.
Watching Cui's figure gradually disappear, Vegeta slumped onto the ground, gasping for air, his expression looking ghastly.
In another area.
Carnegie lay on the ground with a bloody hole in his chest, his body twitching uncontrollably as he hovered on the brink of death.
"Save... save me... Nappa..." Carnegie looked at Nappa with a pleading expression.
Nappa, however, stared coldly at Carnegie, his face devoid of the slightest sympathy.
"Save me..." Carnegie crawled with great difficulty toward Nappa, grabbing onto his leg.
"Trash!" Nappa looked at him with disgust. "You actually let yourself be killed by a monster with a combat power of only 600!"
"Save... please save me..." Carnegie begged, his eyes filled with a desperate will to live.
"SMACK!"
Nappa grabbed Carnegie's hand, the corners of his mouth curling upward into a faint arc.
"Thank you... thank you, Nappa..." Carnegie let out a slight sigh of relief.
I feel like if I get sent to the medical pod on the Spaceship, I should be able to survive.
However, while the thought was pleasant, reality was often disappointing.
"Whoosh!"
Nappa gave his arm a powerful swing, throwing Carnegie directly into the high sky.
"Waaah... Nappa, what are you doing!" Carnegie shrieked in mid-air.
"I have no need for a Saiyan who cannot move! I believe Prince Vegeta would do the same!" Nappa sneered, raising his hand to aim at Carnegie high above. "Dying slowly will be painful; I might as well give you a quick end!"
"Nappa... you bastard!" Carnegie cursed loudly.
"Whoosh!"
A beam of energy erupted from Nappa's hand, slamming heavily into Carnegie's body.
"BOOM!"
Carnegie was blown to pieces, dying on the spot.
Cui, who had just arrived, happened to witness everything that had just occurred, though there was not much expression on his face.
Whether it was Cui's race or the Saiyans, killing one's own kind was already a common occurrence.
"At least I don't have to do it myself!" Cui snorted, looking down at where Nappa stood below.
Nappa's Scouter quickly emitted a warning signal.
Upon seeing the power level reading for Cui, Nappa's legs went weak, and his face turned deathly pale.
Who is this guy?
When did he arrive on this planet?
He's wearing the battle armor of the Frieza Force!
Is he a helper summoned by Prince Vegeta?
That seems possible!
Something's wrong, something's not right!
How did Prince Vegeta's power level drop to only 5,000?
What on earth happened? Did this guy wound Prince Vegeta?
Nappa's mouth twitched; he was genuinely terrified.
In the face of absolute strength, Nappa knew clearly that no matter how hard he tried, he could never be a match for this toad.
"Trash!" Cui smiled contemptuously, cast a faint glance at Nappa, and then ignored him entirely.
"Whoosh!"
Cui changed his trajectory and flew rapidly in another direction.
There's still one guy with a power level of only 175! I'll go confirm that one last! Let's see if it's that mid-level warrior! Cui subconsciously assumed the person with a power level of 175 was Baru.
In any case, I'll go confirm it first.
That way, I can complete the mission Lord Frieza entrusted to me!
Coming here this time is truly satisfying!
The prince of the warrior race, the Saiyans, is nothing more than this!
I thought he was supposed to be so powerful!
Is Lord Frieza overthinking things?
There's no need to destroy their planet at all!
What Super Saiyan?
It's nothing more than a boring heroic legend!
"Whoosh!"
Cui flew at high speed toward the location of Soya and Raditz.
Soya, for his part, had detected a powerful power level rapidly approaching their position via his Scouter the moment it appeared.
Soya's expression changed.
What the hell...
This guy's power level has reached a height of 17,000!
Who is this strong?
"Who's coming! The power level... the power level is 17,000!" Raditz's face turned green with fear, and he stammered.
Soya gritted his teeth.
He was just about to collect 1 million Negative Emotion Points.
He would use them all for the lottery!
A 100-pull draw!
However, even if he did that...
Even if his luck exploded and he managed to pull 99 points of combat power every single time.
Pulling 100 times would still result in less than 10,000 combat power!
Calculating it this way, his total combat power would only be around 13,000!
