Soon.
Bardock and the others arrived at the Gravity Chamber on time, ready for another day of gravity training.
As soon as they entered, they discovered that the gravity was not on today!
No one questioned it.
"King Saigao, is there something you need to tell us today?" Vegeta III asked, showing that he was still thinking clearly.
Saigo nodded and said slowly, "That's right! I have a mission for you today. But first, I have some good news: I can now transform into a Super Saiyan, so we can bring our plan against Frieza forward!"
The warriors' eyes instantly narrowed, and looks of shock gradually appeared on their previously calm faces.
They stared wide-eyed, as if they couldn't believe what they had just heard.
"What? King Saigao, is that true? You really became a Super Saiyan?" someone cried out eagerly.
In an instant, every eye in the room turned toward Saigo.
As they watched expectantly, Saigo nodded with unusual firmness. "That's right! From today onward, we don't have to fear Frieza anymore! You can go clear out Frieza's underlings today!"
At his confirmation, the warriors fell into deathly silence. Then shock spread across every face like a rising tide.
"Really? Is it true?" someone murmured, their voice trembling with disbelief.
But their shock quickly turned to excitement.
The warriors' faces flushed with enthusiasm, and their eyes shone.
They began to cheer and embrace one another. Laughter and shouts echoed through the mountains for a long time.
"Wonderful! Wonderful! We've finally waited long enough!"
"We finally don't have to act according to Frieza's whims! Long live King Saigao!"
"Long live King Saigao!"
"Long live King Saigao!" ×20
Their frenzied, synchronized cries shattered the stillness of dawn.
Their eyes brimmed with anticipation, as if they could already see the light of victory shining ahead.
In that moment, all their exhaustion and pressure vanished, replaced by boundless hope and anticipation for the future.
Their clenched fists and piercing gazes seemed ready to face the approaching Frieza Force!
Once they had let out most of their excitement, Saigo pressed his palms down a few times. The deafening cheers stopped at once.
They all stood tall, eyes blazing, and waited for Saigo's orders.
"Go back now and quickly wipe out those rats. Then issue a statement to every race in the universe: from today onward, the Saiyans will no longer serve the Frieza Force, nor will we help the wicked. We hope all the races in the universe can live together in peace!"
"By the way, I remember that almost all our people who were away have returned, right?"
Paragus immediately stepped forward and answered in a clear voice, "Reporting to King Saigao: aside from the Vegeta IV Squad, everyone we could contact or locate has returned to Planet Vegeta!"
Paragus was in charge of recalling the Saiyans. He remembered exactly how many had returned and where they had come from.
At the front of the crowd, Vegeta III wore an exasperated expression, his back teeth nearly grinding to dust!
If Vegeta IV had returned, he could have been part of this top-secret plan!
With his talent, he was sure to stand out among these twenty people and become the foremost warrior under King Saigao!
Such a young troublemaker, already acting out!
What would he be like when he grew up?!
When that infuriating boy finally came back, Vegeta III would teach him what it meant that a father's orders could not be disobeyed!
Hmph!
"Since that's the case, don't bother looking for those who haven't returned. There's no need to contact them either!" Saigo said firmly. "Now, go back and clear out those rats who like hiding in the shadows!"
"Yes! We obey!" ×19
"But..." Only Vegeta III hesitated.
Saigo waved a hand. "There's no 'but.' I have other arrangements for the Vegeta IV Squad!"
Vegeta III's eyes immediately lit up. King Saigao had special arrangements for them—that had to be good news!
"Yes! I'll follow your orders, King Saigao!"
With that, the fired-up warriors streamed away like a tide.
Not long afterward, a small-scale bloodbath erupted on Planet Vegeta.
Frieza's underlings were all killed.
While they were clearing out the rats, the Frieza Force received the news as well.
Reports reached Frieza not only of the inexplicable shouts ringing across Planet Vegeta, with people crying, "Long live King Saigao!" but also of his spies on the planet suddenly going silent and the full text of the Saiyans' declaration!
Bang!
An intact table suddenly exploded.
Then Frieza's eerie laughter rang out.
"Hehehehehe!"
"So these wild monkeys really think they can defy me, Frieza, the Cosmic Emperor?"
"A few thousand wild monkeys dare to challenge me, Frieza?"
"Mr. Dodoria, Mr. Zarbon, order the army to set out for Planet Vegeta at once! And bring those five Special Forces along!"
"Hehehehe! I want to see what these wild monkeys think they're relying on to openly rebel against me, Frieza!"
After he finished speaking, he saw that Dodoria and Zarbon were still kneeling on the ground. Frieza looked displeased and said coldly, "Why haven't you gone yet? Do you want to die?"
Dodoria and Zarbon were terrified. "Please calm down, Lord Frieza! We'll go at once!"
The two scrambled away.
Frieza flicked his tail and muttered, "Damn wild monkeys, how dare they play me! Hmph! Even if they turn into ugly monkeys, their battle power only increases tenfold. I don't know what gave those wild monkeys the nerve to defy me!"
"Fine! It's time to fulfill Lord Beerus's request! I've let those wild monkeys live for far too long. They should be thanking me, not rebelling against me!"
"Every Saiyan deserves to die!"
Bang!
Crash!
Frieza was so enraged that he glared at the cups on another table, shattering them instantly and scattering the pieces across the floor.
Meanwhile.
On Planet Vegeta.
An hour after Vegeta III and the others had left, Saigo used Ki Control to guide the Gravity Chamber as it flew openly back to the Saiyan King's Palace, then set it down in the spacious square.
At that hour, the vast palace was empty. It seemed everyone had been sent to take out the trash.
Saigo had thought someone might intercept him, giving him a chance to show off in front of everyone. In the end, he didn't see a single person.
"Keep training?"
"No! Even if the heavens themselves came calling today, I'd still have to try transforming into a Super Saiyan first. It should work smoothly, since the system provided it!"
"Just one transformation, and Frieza will probably think his scouter is malfunctioning!"
Hehehe.
The next moment, Saigo clenched both fists and stopped suppressing his ki, channeling energy furiously into his back.
As time passed, the aura radiating from him grew more and more immense, more and more astonishing.
Soon, his aura reached its peak. In an instant, a violent storm of ki erupted from Saigo.
Boom!
Bang!
"Ah-ha!"
As he let out a shout of release, a blinding golden light flashed. Saigo's hair turned gold and stood straight up, his eyes became pale green, and golden flames flared around his body.
Super Saiyan Saigo had made his stunning entrance!
