"Isn't that right, Raditz?" Soya asked with a smile.
"Hahaha... Yeah, yeah!" Raditz nodded vigorously.
Why did you have to ask me, of all people?
I'm an honest kid!
I don't want to lie... but now I have no choice but to say the opposite of what I mean.
"Raditz gained 666 Negative Emotion Points!"
Keep bluffing, go on!
I have a feeling this guy named Cui is in for a bad time!
Even Prince Vegeta can't beat him!
Is Soya going to pin him down and grind him into the dirt?
Hearing that Raditz's battle power had increased eightfold, Cui's thoughts began to stir.
"I'll give it a try." Cui nodded thoughtfully, deciding to test it out.
Soya eagerly handed him the bamboo tube.
Cui took the tube and was just about to drink when he suddenly thought of something. Looking at Raditz, he asked, "Wasn't your battle power 5,600? Why is it only 175 now?"
"Well... I just went through an area teeming with monsters, and I accidentally used up too much energy..." Raditz gave a dry laugh and replied somewhat guiltily.
Cui thought it over seriously.
Mm, just as I thought.
Maybe that kid suddenly boosted his battle power eightfold, got carried away, and lost control of his energy output?
Cui hesitated no longer and took a small sip of Battle God Water.
Then Cui quietly sensed his energy and found that it hadn't changed at all. He couldn't help frowning.
"What's going on?" Cui narrowed his eyes at Soya.
"One sip doubles your battle power. Your battle power is 17,000! What's double 17,000?" Soya asked in return.
"Double 17,000 is 34,000!" Cui answered without hesitation.
"Then what's twice 17,000?" Soya asked again.
Cui: "..."
"Cui gained 777 Negative Emotion Points!"
That actually sounds pretty reasonable!
One sip doesn't double it?
Then I'll try another sip!
Though, something still feels off.
So Cui took another sip.
As soon as he swallowed it, Cui clearly felt the energy within him surge wildly.
Cui was stunned.
Th-this is real!
This Battle God Water really can double my battle power!
Cui immediately pressed the button on his Scouter to check his battle power.
"My battle power... My battle power is 34,000!" Cui was so thrilled he could barely contain himself.
"See? I told you I wasn't lying," Soya said with a sly grin.
"More!" Cui had no reason to hesitate. He downed the Battle God Water in his cup.
Then he immediately checked his battle power again.
"Bang!"
The moment he did, his Scouter exploded, startling him.
But soon, Cui was grinning from ear to ear.
The Scouter had maxed out!
That meant my battle power had doubled again!
This feels amazing!
I don't know exactly how high my battle power is now, but judging by the strength of the energy inside me, it's definitely over 40,000.
In other words, it's tripled.
Converted to my actual battle power, that should be 41,000!
"Pour me more!" Cui held out his cup to Soya.
Soya took out the Battle God Water and poured him another cup.
Cui was about to throw his head back and gulp it down when Soya stopped him.
"Take small sips. It's based on the number of times you drink, not the amount," Soya said, heart aching.
At this rate, it'll be gone after a thousand sips at most.
Cui glared at Soya as if annoyed by his interference, but still took a small sip.
His battle power doubled again.
Keep drinking!
Cui drank one sip at a time.
He took ten sips in all.
Cui felt the energy surging through him was downright insane.
What the hell...
How could something this amazing exist?
My battle power must be at least 170,000 now.
Mm-hmm! I drank ten sips, so my battle power should be ten times what it was before!
So my battle power is 170,000 now?
Makes sense!
Raditz was dumbfounded.
Holy crap... My battle power only quadrupled, but this frog can increase his tenfold?
That's just too much!
Comparing people really is infuriating!
But... after an hour, your battle power will be down to 1,700, right?
Wahaha...
Raditz rejoiced inwardly, pinching his thigh hard to keep from laughing out loud.
Soya's such a menace. Is he going to leave Cui with only 1,700 battle power?
When that happens, forget Soya and Prince Vegeta—even Nappa could easily take this guy out.
"More!" Cui downed the last sip of Battle God Water in the bamboo tube, eagerly awaiting another surge in his energy.
But this time, no miracle occurred.
After his battle power had increased tenfold, Cui had reached his absolute limit.
Th-this is the limit?" Cui felt a little disappointed.
"That's already amazing!" Soya hurriedly gave him a thumbs-up. "Your battle power has increased tenfold! It's just like us Saiyans turning into Great Apes!"
"Give me another sip to try!" Cui still wasn't ready to give up.
Soya poured Cui two more sips of Battle God Water.
Cui shot Soya a look.
You're so stingy!
That's all you're giving me?
Just you wait!
When I leave this planet, I'm taking that whole barrel of Battle God Water with me.
I'll present it to Lord Frieza, and he'll reward me handsomely.
Wait a second...
Why should we give this to Lord Frieza?
My battle power has already reached 170,000!
I should be able to defeat Lord Frieza, right?
Bah!
Why am I calling him Lord Frieza?
From now on, I'll just call him Frieza!
I, Cui, will rule this universe!
I'm the strongest person in the universe!
At that moment, Cui's thoughts began to stir.
Before, Cui would never have considered betraying Frieza.
But now, things were different.
As his battle power skyrocketed, Cui felt like he'd gotten rich overnight, and his petty side suddenly showed.
Cui took another sip of Battle God Water, his heart racing with excitement and his hands trembling.
But no miracle occurred!
Cui's battle power remained capped at ten times its base level.
Still, Cui was more than satisfied.
A battle power of 170,000!
Was this the power of a god?
Cui had no idea how terrifying Frieza's battle power was.
But Soya knew.
Frieza's first form had a battle power of only 530,000, but his final form could reach 120 million.
Cui still wasn't ready to give up, so he drank the very last sip of Battle God Water.
Still no effect.
"Hmph!" Cui crushed the bamboo tube in his hand and smiled at Soya, wondering what to do with him.
Should I kill him here to silence him?
Then this whole barrel of Battle God Water will be mine!
After that, I'll rebel against Frieza.
Soya didn't look worried in the least.
After all, Soya still had his greatest trump card—rebirth.
