"Dada! Dada! Dada! Dada! Dada!"
At this moment, five people of varying heights and builds, wearing battle suits, landed from the sky.
"Ginyu Force!"
The five shouted in unison, then struck their classic poses.
Vegeta felt speechless.
But he had to take them seriously.
"Oh? Vegeta? Where did the person you were just fighting go?"
Guldo, the shortest, scanned the battlefield and asked.
"Just some grunts. I killed them," Vegeta said coldly.
It wasn't time to turn on them yet.
"Say, where are the Dragon Balls the Great King wants?" Recoome asked.
"I only collected five. They're all there."
"Hmm, good. You continue collecting elsewhere."
Vegeta was secretly pleased, and just as he was about to slip away.
"Wait, Vegeta."
Ginyu, with purple skin, stopped him.
"Dodoria and Zarbon should have flown this way just now. What? You didn't encounter them?"
The meticulous Ginyu was suspicious.
Instantly, Vegeta broke out in a cold sweat.
"Lord Dodoria and Lord Zarbon did indeed pass by me, but not long after, several powerful enemies arrived. I only managed to deal with them by giving it my all."
"Oh? Is that so? Then why are there fragments of our battle suits here?"
The meticulous Ginyu noticed the battle suit fragments left on the battlefield and realized they were not the same as the one Vegeta was wearing.
"This..."
Vegeta also noticed the battle suit fragments of Dodoria, and they were clearly different from his own.
"Oh, this is because..."
Vegeta stepped forward, about to explain to them.
But, when Vegeta reached Guldo, who was closest to him.
Shua!
With a burst of power, he slashed with his left hand, decapitating Guldo!
Just like in the original story, Guldo was the first to die.
It had to be said, Vegeta had planned this well. Guldo was the easiest to deal with, and also because his time-stopping ability was troublesome.
!
Before anyone could react, Vegeta immediately flew away.
"What? This?"
Burter, standing nearby, was stunned.
"Why did Vegeta suddenly kill Guldo?"
Jeice was taken aback.
The veins on Ginyu's head became more prominent.
"He killed Dodoria and Zarbon. Since he couldn't hide it anymore, he killed the super-powered Guldo first!"
"Damn Vegeta! I'll go deal with him!" Recoome said angrily.
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
Four extremely fast figures shot into the sky!
"Damn it! That damned Ginyu Force!"
Vegeta fled at full speed, constantly thinking of a way to escape.
Shua!
At this moment, a white figure appeared in front of Vegeta.
"Heh heh, Vegeta, don't run so fast. Hand over the remaining Dragon Balls!"
As expected, the Ginyu Force behind them quickly caught up, Recoome taunted.
"Hmph, even if I die here today, die out there, I will never tell you any news about the Dragon Ball!"
Vegeta said firmly.
"Oh? It seems we have some fun today."
Recoome sneered.
Vegeta stood ready, assuming a fighting stance.
The ki of both sides surged rapidly, the scattered energy easily vibrating the air.
"Oh? Is Recoome that excited today?"
Jeice said, arriving from behind.
"Hmph, he beat me to it."
Burter snorted coldly.
"It seems the Ginyu Force will need a new way to make an entrance."
Ginyu, however, was considering other matters.
"Haa—"
Vegeta's ki erupted with full power. He dared not hold back any longer. A battle power of 35,000 instantly exploded!
"Hah!"
Vegeta attacked first, charging at Recoome like a cannonball.
"Bang!"
Another head-on collision!
Their fists met, and the ground caved in from the immense energy.
"Ah! Da! Da! Da! Da!"
Vegeta immediately unleashed a rapid barrage of attacks!
"Oh? Not bad, Vegeta. You've certainly improved a lot compared to before."
Recoome, still with energy to spare, taunted.
"You bastard!"
Veins bulged on Vegeta's forehead as he attacked desperately.
Vegeta's fists struck out like a machine gun, but Recoome easily blocked them.
"Die!"
Seizing the moment Recoome adapted to the rhythm, Vegeta instantly changed his attack, driving a knee into Recoome's abdomen!
"Cough! Ah!"
Recoome had initially just been toying with Vegeta, but he let his guard down for a moment and coughed up blood.
Strike while the iron is hot!
Seeing this, Vegeta pressed his advantage, relentlessly pounding Recoome's abdomen with punches.
The heavy blows hammered Recoome's stomach again and again like a sledgehammer.
Recoome couldn't react at all.
Then, Vegeta pushed off the ground with his hands, planting his feet on Recoome's chest and kicking him into the air.
The terrifying force instantly shattered Recoome's armor!
A bulky figure was sent flying through the air.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Vegeta seized the opportunity, gathering a Galick Gun and unleashing the Prince Trick, a torrent of energy balls!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
Recoome, suspended in the air, was hit by the dense, bullet-like energy blasts, emitting various explosive sounds.
For a time, thick smoke billowed and dust flew!
"Whoa, whoa, no way? Vegeta actually took down Recoome?"
Jeice, standing nearby, was shocked by the terrifying battle power Vegeta unleashed.
"Impossible!"
Burter exclaimed in disbelief.
"Hmph, Recoome was just careless."
Ginyu said coldly.
"But Recoome isn't someone who gets taken down that easily!"
"Hoo! Ha! Hoo! Ha! --"
Vegeta gasped for air.
As the smoke and dust cleared, Recoome's battered figure was revealed.
His battle armor was completely shattered, and several of his teeth had been knocked out.
"What?"
Vegeta exclaimed in surprise. He had poured all his strength into his previous attack, so why had Recoome's aura barely diminished?
"My turn!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Recoome immediately unleashed an energy wave.
The purple energy wave shot directly towards Vegeta!
Despite Vegeta's intense concentration, he easily dodged it.
BOOM!
The energy wave struck the ground, creating a massive crater.
However, that attack was merely a feint; the true killing blow was yet to come.
The instant Recoome fired the energy blast, his figure flickered, and he appeared before Vegeta.
Just as Vegeta managed to evade Recoome's energy wave attack, he found himself directly in front of Recoome!
At this moment, the roles of attacker and defender had reversed!
Just as Vegeta had attacked Recoome moments ago, it was now Recoome's turn to wreak havoc.
But Recoome's attacks were even heavier, even more ferocious!
After using Prince Trick, Vegeta hadn't even caught his breath before he was struck by several more heavy blows.
Instantly, Vegeta was at a disadvantage.
At first, he could barely block, but later, as his stamina was almost depleted, his defenses were easily breached, and he was pummeled.
"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Vegeta was battered like a sandbag by Recoome's relentless assault, unable to even cry out.
Finally, he was kicked flying by Recoome.
"WHOOSH!"
While Vegeta was still in mid-air, Recoome opened his mouth wide and fired an energy blast from it, which struck Vegeta with a resounding boom.
Vegeta's figure, like a kite with a broken string, fell powerlessly.
