Captain Videl

East City is a bustling metropolis, equal in fame to West City, where Capsule Corp is located.

Both cities are currently the largest in the world.

They are also the two primary economic hubs of the Earth.

In the past, West City was somewhat more economically developed than East City due to the presence of the Capsule Corp conglomerate.

However, later on, the Androids attacked West City, causing it to fall and be reduced to ruins.

But the Androids never went to East City.

Therefore, whether measured by economy or population, East City is now the most prosperous city in the Dragon Ball world, bar none.

Son Gohan descended from the sky, standing atop a skyscraper over a hundred stories high, witnessing the bustling traffic of East City.

On the streets below, vehicles flowed in an endless stream, and the crowds were noisy and surging—a picture of peaceful, quiet times.

This was a true golden age for humanity.

Son Gohan liked the world as it was now.

Half an hour ago.

In another part of East City.

Six bikers used explosives to blow open the East City Bank.

"BOOM!"

Flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke filled the entire street.

"Ah, help!"

"No, please, I beg you to spare me! I have elderly parents and young children at home..."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The robbers pulled their triggers, bullets tearing through the air and claiming one vibrant life after another.

As people died, the scene descended into even greater chaos.

The robber carrying a submachine gun laughed wildly, "Hahaha, everyone, we're just borrowing some money to spend. If you insist on getting in our way, then we're sorry."

"Everyone, get down and put your hands on your heads!"

The bank staff all crouched down, trembling with fear.

The robbers were satisfied with their compliance and pulled out sacks to fill with bags of cash and gold bars.

But at this moment, an old man, tears streaming down his face, loudly cursed the group of robbers.

"Beasts! You bunch of beasts! You'll meet a miserable end, you animals!"

It was only because his wife had just died under the robbers' gunfire.

He no longer cared if he lived.

"Heh!" One of the robbers grinned, pressing his submachine gun against the old man's forehead.

"Old man, you don't want to live anymore? Why can the Androids do it but we can't? We've been quite merciful, haven't we?"

"Beasts! You and the Androids are all beasts!" The old man wasn't afraid in the slightest.

"Since you want to die so badly, I'll grant your wish."

The robber sneered and prepared to pull the trigger, intending to blow the old man's head apart.

But just then, several police cars came screaming in, surrounding the East City Bank completely.

"Damn, these annoying flies got here so fast." The robber gave up on executing the old man and looked toward the police outside, frowning.

A female police officer with a graceful figure stepped out of a cruiser, holding a megaphone to shout at the robbers inside the bank.

"Listen up inside! You are surrounded. I am the captain of this operation, Videl. Release the hostages, and I promise to let you leave here safely."

"I'll give you two minutes to consider. Starting now."

Videl was in the prime of her youth, heroic and spirited, with long black hair and a brow full of vigor.

She wore her uniform, which highlighted her ample chest, and the attire only served to make her long legs appear even more slender.

A true uniform temptation.

The robbers inside the bank swallowed hard.

Then, they began to whisper among themselves.

"Damn, how is there such a beautiful policewoman?"

"You don't know her? She's the hero cop of East City. There hasn't been a case she couldn't handle."

"Ah, she's that good?"

"No kidding. Why else do you think she's the captain? I've seen her in action; her martial arts are incredible. She can really fight."

"We're in trouble this time. I didn't expect her to be leading the team."

"So what do we do now, Boss?"

"What are you afraid of? We have guns, we have hostages, are we really going to be scared of this woman outside?"

"I don't believe she has more heads or hands than the rest of us."

"How about we hand over the hostages and let her let us go?"

"Is she a woman of her word?"

"It is said that her word is as heavy as nine tripods; she is very reliable."

"Fine, then we'll do as she says. We'll hand over the hostages, but we must make her guarantee our safe departure."

"Yeah, alright."

The bandits finished their deliberation.

Then, they shouted out to the police.

"Alright, Officer Videl, we'll do as you say. We'll release the hostages, but you must guarantee that we leave here safely."

"I'll give you a heads-up in advance: we have a massive amount of guns and ammunition. If you go back on your word, we won't mind taking you all down with us."

"Officer Videl, what do you say?"

Videl said, "Of course, no problem. I can promise you that. Release the hostages now."

"Fine," the robbers agreed.

Then, they carried the sacks on their shoulders and, holding over a dozen hostages, walked out of the bank and onto the main road.

The dozen or so hostages were successfully transferred.

The six robbers threw the sacks into the sedan and sped away.

They never imagined they would actually be let go just like that.

The robbers' boisterous laughter echoed from afar.

"Hahaha, Videl, you stinking bitch, sooner or later I'm going to finish you, hahaha!"

The police officers were incensed upon hearing such words.

How outrageous.

These people actually dared to insult their captain?

A young male officer said furiously, "Captain, when do we pursue?"

Videl's eyes glinted with cold light as she grinned and sneered, "Hmph, let them be arrogant for a while. How about it? Did you install the trackers and time bombs on their cars like I told you?"

The male officer nodded and said, "Of course, here."

As he spoke, he handed Videl a tablet and a remote control. The tablet was displaying the real-time location of the two robber vehicles.

Videl stared at the tablet for a moment.

Then, she took out a capsule, threw it on the ground, and it transformed into a jet plane.

A few seconds later, she shouted, "Alright, now is the time. Give chase!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Several police cars roared away.

Videl herself piloted the jet plane and gave chase.

The two robber cars sped along, racing down the wide road.

One of the robbers hugged the sack in his arms and said excitedly, "Boss, where are we going to live it up tonight? With this much money, it's enough to last us a long time."

"We'll talk about that in a few days. For now, let's lay low."

"Oh, alright, I'll listen to you, Boss."

"Ah, Boss, this is bad! The police are catching up!"

A robber saw the pursuing police cars in the rearview mirror.

"What?"

"Damn it!"

One robber pointed at the jet plane hovering above and said, "The plane in the sky must be them too."

"Fuck, it really is."

"Damn it, that woman Videl has no integrity! She's chasing us!"

"Shoot that plane down!"

Several robbers raised their submachine guns and unleashed a barrage of fire at the police cars behind them and the jet plane in the sky.

The submachine guns spat out tongues of fire, emitting a rhythmic da-da-da sound.

Videl piloted the jet plane, dodging the bullets continuously, but the fuselage was still struck by several stray rounds, sending sparks flying with a clang-clang-clang.

Videl's expression grew increasingly cold.

Soon, the robbers' cars reached an empty stretch of road.

"Heh, accept your judgment, you bastards."

Videl sneered and pressed the remote control in her hand.

"BOOM!"

The two cars speeding along the ground exploded violently, sending money flying everywhere.

The six robbers were sent flying, tumbling across the ground like gourds.

Each of them had sustained varying degrees of injury, their heads bloodied and bruised.

Someone struggled to stand up.

"Damn it, what happened?"

One of the robbers wiped the blood from his face and said furiously.

"Dammit, it must have been that damn woman who tampered with our cars, damn her."

"I still have one car here, everyone get in and let's get out of here," he said, taking out a capsule.

But before he could turn the capsule into a car, several police cruisers arrived, surrounding them completely, and Videl descended from the sky.

She jumped down from her jet, walked over with her long legs, kicked one of the robbers over, and then stepped onto his chest.

She let out a cold chuckle and said, "Was that you cursing me just now?"
