After finishing all this, Ye Ming calmly turned his head and smiled at Frieza, saying, "Frieza, we'll be taking our leave now!"
This smile, as cold as the Grim Reaper's, filled Frieza with immense fear, yet he still stood up steadily and replied, "Very well, very well. Please, take your time, I won't see you out!"
Once Ye Ming and his companions vanished from before them, Frieza let out a long sigh of relief; he had been truly terrified just moments ago, the sheer pressure of that aura making it impossible for him to breathe.
However, he still grinned: soon, King Frieza would return to this world, and he had to train with everything he had—Son Goku and Vegeta, just you wait for me.
After the three of them emerged, Son Goku took a deep breath of air and said, "The outside world is still the most comfortable; Hell is truly too unbearable to look at."
Ye Ming said to the two of them, "I told Frieza just now that he could take his revenge on you once he has successfully trained. You won't blame me for that, will you? I feel Frieza has good potential and is a villain very well-suited to be your opponent."
Before Vegeta could speak, Son Goku immediately said, "Not at all, not at all! Frieza is indeed a good opponent, but he is still too weak right now. When he has finished his training, I will have a proper bout with him!"
"That is truly a pity, Kakarot. I will certainly beat him to the ground and torment him severely before you ever get the chance, hmph!" Vegeta glanced at Son Goku and said with disdain.
"Well then, let's go. Gohan should have gathered the Dragon Balls by now. Goku, could you trouble yourself to make a trip and call 17 over to Bulma's place?" Ye Ming said with a smile.
Vegeta spoke up at this moment: "I shall head out first; do as you please."
Son Goku and the others watched Vegeta depart; it seemed he was missing his wife, Bulma, after all!
Son Goku said, "Alright, leave it to me."
Son Goku used Instant Transmission to leave, but Ye Ming did not move. He stood in place, lost in thought for a moment; after all, going to Bulma's house would only take an instant, so he was in no hurry at all.
Ye Ming also knew that ten people would participate in the upcoming Tournament of Power, and he didn't know if the number would change after he arrived in this timeline, but that was not a problem at all.
He mused that the participants from Universe 7 for the tournament would surely follow an elite route, where quality would definitely far outweigh quantity, Ye Ming thought, rubbing his chin.
Where was he supposed to find one more person? He had originally thought of Cell, but Cell was only in his initial form and was completely useless!
To be honest, Ye Ming didn't want to look for villains anymore; he felt the uncontrollable factors of villains were simply too high, and he couldn't keep his eyes on them forever.
It was fortunate that Son Goku and Vegeta were there to deal with Frieza; otherwise, the two of them might have ended up being the ones reversed.
The final contestant should belong to the side of kindness and justice, and possess sufficiently outstanding strength, which left Ye Ming thinking for a long time without coming up with a name.
Ye Ming furrowed his brows, sighed, and said, "Forget it, there's no rush. I'll think about it after I finish the business at hand."
In a flash, Ye Ming vanished from where he stood, and the next moment, he appeared in the garden outside Bulma's house.
Everyone was gathered together, including Krillin, Piccolo, and Tien Shinhan's group. 17 had also arrived, and the Dragon Balls were fully collected; it seemed everything was ready, save for the final push.
Ye Ming nodded at everyone and said, "Then let us begin!"
Ye Ming nodded at 17, and 17 responded politely.
Son Gohan recited an incantation toward the Dragon Balls, and suddenly, dark clouds gathered, a flash of light streaked across, and Shenron appeared above everyone.
"State your wishes!" Shenron spoke indifferently.
Ye Ming asked, "Can you create an android exactly identical to the 17 standing before me? Including his behavior, thoughts, personality, and so on."
Shenron pondered for a moment: "I can. Are you certain you want this to be your first wish?"
Hearing this, Ye Ming revealed a smile; it was actually possible, though there was nothing to be surprised about.
"Yes, Shenron, that is our first wish," Ye Ming said with a smile.
A red light flashed from Shenron, and suddenly, an identical 17 appeared beside 17. Everyone was extremely curious, their eyes wide as they stared at him.
The 17 from the present world said, "Hello, other me. I am very happy to meet you."
The newly emerged 17 said, "Hello, I am as well..."
Shenron then spoke: "State your second wish!"
"Fuse these two 17s together perfectly. Can you do that?" Ye Ming asked.
Shenron's red light flashed, and he said indifferently, "They are not gods, merely creations of artificial engineering. Of course I can."
"Very well, then the second wish is exactly what I just proposed," Ye Ming said with a smile.
Ye Ming thought to himself that the plan was going even more smoothly than he had imagined; he had thought it would take some effort to fuse them together.
Shenron's red light flashed once more, and the two 17s turned into a ball of light and merged, completely forming a new 17!
Everyone was very curious as they looked at the newly appeared Super 17, though Son Gohan showed a look of vigilance; he didn't know if the personality would change after the new fusion.
However, his worries were unnecessary. Ye Ming looked at 17 and said, "How does this body feel to you now, 17?"
Super 17 examined his own body, clenched his fists, and said, "It's truly wonderful! I never expected this to be possible. My power has significantly increased, and the functions of my body have also expanded."
"That means our plan was a success. I was truly afraid you might suddenly become exceptionally cruel, in which case I would have had no choice but to painfully destroy you," Ye Ming said, feigning seriousness.
Super 17 knew Ye Ming was joking, and he smiled as well: "If that were truly the case, then I suppose it would just be my bad luck, haha."
Shenron spoke the next moment: "State your third wish."
"Resurrect Frieza from Hell. That is the third wish," Ye Ming replied.
"Very well, your third wish shall be granted." The next second, Frieza appeared before everyone.
However, someone soon burst into loud laughter; Frieza had been presented before everyone in pieces.
At this, Shenron said, "I have only resurrected his soul, but you must piece his body together yourselves for him to be fully reborn! Since the wishes have been granted, farewell."
Shenron turned into seven wish orbs and vanished!
Ye Ming watched the scene before him and slapped his forehead; as a transmigrator, he had actually forgotten about this whole affair. Oh my, this was getting a bit ridiculous—it was hard to tell if Ye Ming had truly done it on purpose or not!
He had Bulma take a large glass jar to collect the pieces of Frieza's shattered body, intending to return to the God of Destruction Realm and have Whis patch him back together.
Vegeta watched this scene with a faint smile tugging at the corner of his mouth; he never expected that the dignified Emperor of Evil would be reduced to such a pathetic state!
At first, everyone had opposed Frieza's resurrection, but under Son Goku's persuasion, they had reluctantly agreed. After all, the Z Fighters held an exceptionally poor impression of Frieza—one could say it was as bad as it could possibly get!
Soon, amidst laughter and joy, Ye Ming finished dinner at Bulma's house with his companions. This was the kind of happy life Ye Ming could imagine for himself, outside of the battles.
