Cooler's Arrival

Namek, once a picturesque plain, had been reduced to a scene of broken cliffs and shattered ruins!

In the midst of this, a purple sphere of light, roughly two meters in diameter, completely enveloped Frieza!

As time fermented, Frieza's evil aura grew increasingly potent, a terrifying and oppressive pressure rushing forth that made one's blood run cold!

Sun Wukong's originally calm and composed expression grew increasingly grave!

He had initially felt that with his current strength, combined with the ten-fold King Kai Fist, he had the confidence to face Frieza no matter how powerful he might be!

But circumstances often defied expectations!

Sun Wukong slowly retreated to the side of Piccolo and the others.

"Krillin, your combat power is a bit weak. Make sure to protect yourself in a moment; I don't have much certainty of victory!" Sun Wukong said solemnly.

"Alright, Wukong, you be careful!" Krillin followed Sun Wukong's instructions and retreated a full hundred kilometers!

"Piccolo, you all..."

"Enough, no need to say more. Even if I know I am no match for him, I must witness this earth-shattering battle!" Piccolo cut off Sun Wukong's next words!

Raditz and Nappa nodded in agreement as well.

"Fine, suit yourselves! I'm going in!!" Sun Wukong said helplessly.

At this moment, Frieza had completed his final transformation!

Elegant, petite, and radiating a cold, haughty temperament, the familiar figure emerged!

"Oh-ho-ho-ho, have you arranged your burial grounds? But rest assured, this King will not leave your corpse intact! And that goes for those wild monkeys over there too!!" Recalling the scene where he was beaten black and blue by Raditz, Frieza could not help but be consumed by rage!

Whoosh!!

Three Death Beams were fired instantly at extreme speed, streaking toward Raditz, Nappa, and not even sparing Piccolo!

"Dodge!!" Piccolo shouted loudly!! His figure retreated at high speed.

The beam grazed his arm as it shot past!

Raditz and Nappa were forced to use the King Kai Fist to barely evade the attack!

But the sudden use of the King Kai Fist still caused their internal energy to suffer a backlash, and a trace of blood leaked from their mouths!

"Heh. You could dodge one, but what about ten?" Frieza condensed bean-sized red points of light on all ten of his fingers!

"Your opponent is me!"

Sun Wukong naturally could not watch this continue; he moved at high speed to stand before Frieza, gripping Frieza's palms tightly with both hands!

"Very well, this King has never encountered an opponent like you before. Let me have some real fun!" After transforming, Frieza was full of confidence, and his mindset had relaxed.

"Fight!!" Sun Wukong seized the opportunity immediately and threw Frieza away with all his might!

"A sneak attack??"

"Enough talk!"

Sun Wukong pressed his advantage, moving at high speed to appear behind Frieza and driving his knee upward!

Whoosh!!

The attack missed; Sun Wukong's knee passed directly through Frieza's body!

Frieza had dodged the attack with ease, almost in an instant!

And in the very moment of evasion, he launched a counterattack!

Sun Wukong suddenly felt a chill behind him: "Not good, King Kai Fist!!"

Red flames surged as Sun Wukong instantly shifted his position, Frieza's palm passing exactly through his afterimage!!

The two of them continued to defend, attack, and dodge; for a time, they were evenly matched!

But from high above, Son Gohan could already see that Sun Wukong's stamina was beginning to falter!

Although the battle had been short, his control over the details of the fight was precise, but every time he unleashed the King Kai Fist, it inevitably consumed a portion of his stamina!

Sun Wukong possessed superior combat intuition, and compared to the inexperienced Frieza, he was not at a disadvantage!

But Son Gohan could see that Sun Wukong had already fallen into a disadvantage regarding his physical reserves!

"Gohan, it won't be easy for your father to win!" With Merus's insight, he naturally saw where the problem lay!

"Big brother, there will always be miracles! Let's keep watching!" Son Gohan remained calm and unruffled!

"Heh, interesting!!" Seeing this, Merus did not say anything more!

South Galaxy!

"King Cooler, good news, we have found a way!!" Saviz arrived to report.

"Speak!" Cooler said in a deep voice.

"Dore has found a ship capable of traversing wormholes on a highly advanced planet!" Saviz said with excitement.

"How long to reach Namek!" Cooler asked coldly.

"It requires four jumps, with about three minutes needed for preparation and startup each time!" Saviz replied.

"Snap!" Cooler smashed the red wine glass in his hand and shouted, "Then what are you waiting for? Tell Dore, no matter what method he uses, get me a spaceship!"

"Yes, Lord Cooler!" Saviz hurriedly sent a transmission to Dore!

One hour later!

A teardrop-shaped spaceship approached Cooler's mothership at high speed!

"Is that Dore?" Cooler asked, standing by the window.

"Yes, Dore already explained the shape of the ship to me just now!" Saviz replied respectfully, his right hand placed over his chest.

"Very well, let's go! Where is Nez?" Cooler asked.

"Nez is with Dore! My Lord, if we leave, what should we do about this high-grade ship?" Saviz asked.

"Fool. Which is more important, a spaceship or the Dragon Balls that can grant any wish?" Cooler rebuked him harshly, his eyes fixed on the glass window of the ship, his pupils constricting!

Snap!

The glass shattered instantly, and a powerful suction force pulled Saviz straight out!

Fortunately, Saviz possessed the ability to survive in space, which was the only reason he stayed alive!

Cooler stood rooted to the spot, the powerful vacuum suction unable to shake him in the slightest!

"Saviz, are you alright?" Nez opened the hatch of the teardrop-shaped ship and pulled Saviz inside!

"I'm fine. Lord Cooler is already displeased, we must hurry!" Saviz said, still shaken.

Just because of that one foolish question, Cooler had released a trace of killing intent!

Cooler reined in his killing intent; after all, he only had three subordinates, and if he lost one, wouldn't he just be sabotaging himself?

Moreover, the combat power of Saviz, Dore, and Nez was quite decent, all hovering around 150,000.

Any one of them was stronger than Ginyu, the subordinate of his foolish little brother!

Cooler shifted his feet, moving at high speed, and arrived at the hatch of the teardrop ship in an instant!

The hatch had remained open, waiting for his arrival!

Cooler walked in slowly and issued a cold command: "Depart!"

"Yes, Lord Cooler!" Dore immediately activated the wormhole jump technology!

The first jump carried them out of the South Galaxy, the second brought them to the North Galaxy, and the third brought them directly to the outer space of Namek!

"Cooler... how could he be here?" Son Gohan frowned.

On the side of the Grand Elder, he also suddenly sensed an aura even more terrifying than Frieza's. It was not as evil as Frieza's, but rather cold—an exceptionally cold, ruthless aura!

"Nail, go and see what is happening. If things look bad, return immediately and tell me! Moori, you also prepare the Dragon Balls. If the situation becomes dire, we will summon Porunga directly and leave Namek!" The wise Grand Elder made preparations for both outcomes!

"Yes, Grand Elder!" Nail and the Second Elder, Moori, replied in unison!
