"From where I am, it'll take at least a week to fly there," Cooler said with a smile.
"Then take your time," Frieza replied. He wasn't very interested in Cooler, so he ended the call immediately.
Soya: "..."
At this rate, we'd probably run into Cooler.
Then what the hell are we even going there for?!
Wouldn't we just be walking into our deaths?
"Back to what we were talking about." Frieza turned his attention to Soya and the others again, looking at them with interest. "That Battle God Water—is it a tribute you intend to offer me, Frieza?"
"No. I just wanted to show off a little. That's all. Goodbye." Once Soya finished speaking, he ended the call.
Frieza: "..."
Frieza's triangular eyes widened as he stared at the blank screen. Three veins bulged on his forehead, and his face turned green.
"Negative Emotion Points from Frieza +999!" "Negative Emotion Points from Frieza +999!" "From..."
Frieza kept giving Soya Negative Emotion Points.
Frieza had never been this angry before.
I finally got my hands on something this good, something that could double my battle power.
And you're telling me you just came to show off?!
Who are you trying to piss off?!
Frieza trembled with rage. His expression grew darker, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Berryblue didn't dare say a word.
Those Saiyans sure had guts!
They actually said that thing was just for showing off!
Were they trying to get themselves killed?
Inside Soya's spaceship.
Vegeta and Raditz fell silent.
Wasn't the plan to go wipe out Frieza together?
Were you trying to piss him off completely?
You've taken things a little too far!
"Soya... what... what do you mean?" Raditz's mouth twitched, and his face turned deathly pale.
How could you screw someone over this badly?
You're going to get me killed!
"Negative Emotion Points from Raditz +666!"
"What are you trying to do?" Vegeta was just as furious.
That wasn't what we'd agreed on earlier.
We'd spent three hours rehearsing what to say, and finally managed to get through to Frieza.
Then you go and ignore the script.
You're making me want to beat you up!
"Negative Emotion Points from Vegeta +888!"
"Plans have changed!" Soya shook his head with a sigh.
"What do you mean?" Raditz was a little confused.
"Is it because of Frieza's older brother, Cooler?" Vegeta caught on quickly. He raised an eyebrow.
"Exactly." Soya nodded.
"Hmph. Isn't that even better?" Vegeta snorted and rolled his eyes at Soya. "Now we can wipe them both out at once! That'll save us the trouble."
Soya was speechless.
You've got some nerve.
You really think you can take them both out!
You won't even know what killed you.
"Tell me what you're thinking. I'll see if there's a way to salvage this," Soya asked with interest.
"How can we salvage it? Frieza's probably about to explode with rage." Raditz shuddered. "I think Frieza's going to hunt us down!"
"We'll just say we were joking and apologize. Maybe he'll forgive us," Soya said with a smile.
Raditz didn't want to say anything.
Did you think Frieza was stupid?
"Negative Emotion Points from Raditz +666!"
"But come to think of it, if Frieza's brother really does show up, one of them might not drink the Battle God Water..." Raditz speculated. "If that happens, they'll be hard to deal with, won't they?"
"Easy!" Vegeta scoffed. "Once Frieza or Cooler has drunk the Battle God Water and about an hour has passed, I'll drink it. Frieza or Cooler's battle power will have dropped, while mine will have multiplied several times over! Then I can take the opportunity to eliminate them both! With my physique, a thirtyfold increase would put my battle power at 450,000. That'd be more than enough to take out Frieza and Cooler!"
Soya: "..."
You must be dreaming!
You think a battle power of 450,000 is enough to take out Cooler, who has a battle power of 470 million?
Unless I give you a Legendary Super Saiyan Trial Card.
Wait.
That actually might work!
If Vegeta's battle power could increase tenfold, reaching 150,000, and I gave him a Legendary Super Saiyan Trial Card...
Then Vegeta's battle power would be on par with Cooler's.
If Vegeta could boost his battle power elevenfold, he could easily kill Cooler in one blow.
Still, Soya couldn't help feeling it was too risky.
There was one less Legendary Super Saiyan Trial Card every time you used one.
Wouldn't it be better to keep it for myself?
"I put quite a bit of my urine in this bottle of Battle God Water... Are we really going to waste it?" Raditz shook the bottle in his hand, feeling it would be a terrible waste.
"Let me think it over... Wait a moment." Soya waved a hand.
He said that because he planned to start another round of draws.
Just now, the Negative Emotion Points Soya had collected had once again reached one million.
Another hundred draws!
Let's see if I can get a Legendary Super Saiyan Trial Card this time.
I only have three now!
If I can get a few more Legendary Super Saiyan Trial Cards this time, I might give one to Vegeta.
If I can't get any more, I'll keep them for myself.
Soya started drawing.
"Congratulations, you've gained 22 battle power!"
"Congratulations, you've gained 33 battle power!"
"Congratulations, you've gained 66 battle power!"
Soya's battle power kept soaring.
But even after waiting a long time, Soya still didn't see a Legendary Super Saiyan Trial Card.
Was that it?
You only gave me three... Is that enough?
You could've at least given me a regular Super Saiyan Trial Card!
"Congratulations, you've obtained an Ultra Instinct Fragment!"
"Congratulations, you've gained 99 battle power!"
"Congratulations, you've obtained an Ultra Instinct Fragment!"
"Congratulations..."
Soya's heart jolted.
Ultra Instinct Fragments?
What the heck were those?
Soya let his battle power continue to soar while shifting his gaze to a card fragment in the system shop that shimmered with brilliant light. He read its description.
Ultra Instinct Fragment: Collect 100 fragments to comprehend Ultra Instinct!
Holy crap!
There's something this good?!
All I have to do is collect 100 Ultra Instinct Fragments, and I can comprehend Ultra Instinct on my own?
And there were no parentheses after the fragment's name, which meant there were no side effects.
In other words, if I really comprehended Ultra Instinct, then I'd truly have mastered it.
This time, I got two fragments in a single draw.
If I draw a few more times, maybe I really can collect all 100!
At that moment, Soya's whole outlook changed.
What the hell do I need to go eliminate Frieza for?!
Wouldn't it be better to go farm Negative Emotion Points?
As long as I farm enough Negative Emotion Points, I can collect the Ultra Instinct Fragments as soon as possible.
Once I've comprehended Ultra Instinct, then I can go out and raise hell!
