"What!"

Staff Officer Black was startled.

"What about Colonel Silver and the others?"

"Colonel Silver and his men have already gone out to meet the enemy!"

As they spoke, the figures of Colonel Silver and his team appeared on the large screen in the operations room.

"It's Colonel Silver!"

Seeing Colonel Silver and his men, the morale of the surrounding soldiers soared.

Tambourine sneered and lunged rapidly toward them.

Colonel Silver immediately grabbed his submachine gun and unleashed a barrage of fire at Tambourine.

However, Tambourine moved too fast, and the submachine gun fire couldn't hit him at all.

"Damn it!"

Colonel Silver roared in anger, threw away the submachine gun, and prepared to engage Tambourine in hand-to-hand combat.

Just as Tambourine was about to reach Colonel Silver, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed man suddenly glared at him.

Tambourine's body froze instantly.

The man was General Blue, who possessed the psychic ability to paralyze others with his gaze.

Seizing the opportunity, Colonel Silver picked up the discarded submachine gun and fired another volley at Tambourine.

But because Tambourine possessed a demon's body, the bullets struck him as if hitting an impenetrable steel plate.

"It's... it's useless..."

Colonel Silver was shocked.

"Psychic powers?"

Tambourine glanced at General Blue and suddenly opened his mouth, firing an energy wave at him.

"What!"

General Blue's expression changed in alarm, and he hurriedly dodged.

It was precisely because of this dodge that the control over Tambourine was broken, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared behind General Blue.

"General Blue, watch out!"

Colonel Violet warned.

"Ugh!"

General Blue turned his body, only to see a green hand piercing through his torso.

Then, his clothes were soaked red with a massive amount of blood.

"You!"

General Blue looked at Tambourine with a face full of disbelief.

He never imagined that he would die at the hands of a monster today.

"Ge... General Blue!"

Seeing this, Colonel Silver and the others were suddenly overcome with the urge to flee.

If they ran away like this, they would certainly be punished by Staff Officer Black, but if they didn't, they might lose their lives right here.

After weighing the pros and cons, Colonel Silver and his men suddenly turned and fled.

"Co... Colonel Silver!"

The soldiers of the Red Ribbon Army were stunned to see this scene, and then they too began to flee outward.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this from the operations room, Staff Officer Black gritted his teeth in fury.

The Red Ribbon Army had always been the ones to strike fear into others; now that high-ranking officers like Colonel Silver were being scared off by a monster, where would the face of the Red Ribbon Army be if this got out?

Thinking of this, Staff Officer Black immediately turned to the commander beside him.

"Pass the order down: Colonel Silver and his men are deserting in the face of battle; execute them all as traitors!"

"Yes, Commander Black!"

"Then, Commander Black, what should we do next?"

"It seems I have no choice but to take the field myself!"

"You are going to take the field yourself?"

As he spoke, Staff Officer Black walked out of the operations room and arrived at a relatively spacious area.

He then took out a Hoi-Poi Capsule, opened it, and threw it onto the ground.

POOF!

With a puff of white smoke, a blue mecha appeared on the ground.

Staff Officer Black climbed into the mecha and steered it downward.

Because Colonel Silver and the others had fled, the soldiers of the Red Ribbon Army had no heart left for battle and began to scatter in every direction.

Tambourine watched the Red Ribbon Army soldiers fleeing like ants and suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

At this moment, Staff Officer Black maneuvered the mecha until he stood before Tambourine.

"Where are the Dragon Balls?"

"So, you came here for the Dragon Balls!"

"Oh, judging by your tone, you know where they are?"

Tambourine laughed.

After fighting for so long, he had finally encountered someone who knew about the Dragon Balls.

Staff Officer Black let out a cold snort.

"Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you, and you aren't leaving here today!"

"Is that so!"

As Tambourine spoke, he suddenly spat out a wave of energy from his mouth.

Staff Officer Black's expression shifted in alarm, and he hurriedly maneuvered the mecha to leap upward.

Black dodged the attack, but the stone tower behind him was demolished by Tambourine's energy wave.

A bead of cold sweat broke out on Staff Officer Black's forehead.

If that energy wave had landed on his mecha, even if he could have withstood the impact, the machine would likely have been totaled.

"Whew..."

Seeing Staff Officer Black dodge, Tambourine immediately let out a long breath.

Although Tambourine was powerful, his stamina was not infinite; energy waves like the one he just unleashed consumed a significant amount of his strength.

"Are you tired?"

Noticing the change in Tambourine, Staff Officer Black immediately maneuvered the mecha to fire several missiles at him.

Tambourine flapped his wings and dodged them.

"Ha!"

Staff Officer Black let out a loud shout, gripped the control sticks, and charged forward.

Tambourine leaped into the air with both feet.

Staff Officer Black's mecha slammed heavily into the ground.

At that moment, Tambourine delivered a flying kick with his right foot, striking the glass in front of the mecha with great force.

"Crack..."

The front of the mecha shattered.

Seeing this, Staff Officer Black's expression changed, and he hurriedly maneuvered the mecha to retreat.

Just then, Tambourine suddenly extended his long tongue and bound Staff Officer Black.

"What... what is this?"

Staff Officer Black's face turned pale with shock.

Tambourine chuckled softly and began to slowly retract his purple tongue.

At that moment, a figure suddenly flew in from the distance.

This person was none other than Sun Wukong.

Watching Sun Wukong's astonishing speed, Tambourine could not help but show a look of surprise.

"Whoosh..."

"Thud..."

Before long, Sun Wukong landed in front of the two of them.

"So, it's just a brat!"

Seeing that Sun Wukong was not very old, Tambourine quickly let his guard down.

No matter how strong a human brat was, he couldn't possibly be stronger than him.

"Ah!"

At this, Staff Officer Black, tightly coiled by Tambourine's tongue, let out a scream.

"Save... save me!"

Staff Officer Black pleaded with Sun Wukong for help.

"Are you here to save him?"

Tambourine laughed.

"I don't even know him, why would I save him?"

"You don't know him? Then what did you come here for? To throw your life away?"

Tambourine continued to laugh.

"Originally, I only came to defeat the Red Ribbon Army and incidentally take the Dragon Ball they obtained! But now, I've changed my mind!"

"Changed your mind?"

"That's right. Not only will I defeat the Red Ribbon Army and get the Dragon Ball, I'm going to kill you too!"

"Kill me!"

Tambourine burst into laughter, as if he had just heard the greatest joke in the world.

Sun Wukong sneered, his right hand condensing a golden wave of ki.

Bang!

Accompanied by a flash of golden flames, Tambourine's body instantly turned to ash.

Staff Officer Black, standing to the side, was so terrified by the sight that he couldn't speak a word.

Although Sun Wukong did not particularly want to kill, Staff Officer Black was the commander of the Red Ribbon Army; if he didn't kill him, the Earth would likely never know peace.

Accompanied by a golden light, Staff Officer Black's body slowly collapsed to the ground.

Sun Wukong did not use the ki wave from before, but instead used a flick of his finger, leaving him with an intact corpse.

The personnel in the operations room were deathly silent as they witnessed this scene.

A moment later, they scrambled to flee the room in a panic.
