Huan'er Planet.
It was an utterly unremarkable planet, one that had also been classified as habitable. Mu Chuan's squad had come here for that very reason.
Mu Chuan had only just taken over this alien squad when he was sent on this mission. He couldn't tell whether it was a sign of trust or a test.
But whatever the reason,
he wasn't about to leave in a hurry. Leaving would give him freedom and keep him out of danger, but what he wanted even more was to get a sign-in from the system.
Who knew when he might be able to sign in with Frieza while staying by his side? Wouldn't that be amazing? It would be far more useful than wandering around aimlessly like a headless fly.
The rewards from signing in had no set pattern, but the stronger the person you stayed near, the better the reward ought to be!
And sometimes, the rewards were even specific.
Just like Zarbon's transformation.
Frieza had an ability Mu Chuan coveted more than anything. He just didn't know if he could obtain it.
"Ugh..."
"This sign-in opportunity is probably going to waste. What a shame!"
"If I could stay by Frieza's side, it wouldn't matter whether I got a sign-in from Frieza or the Ginyu Force. Either way, my battle power would soar."
"That'd be a lot better than being stuck in this godforsaken place."
"Here..." Mu Chuan scanned his surroundings with his Scouter, even scanning the entire planet. He found that the highest battle power was only 3,000.
That was barely a little stronger than he was.
But... if Mu Chuan used Zarbon's transformation, his battle power would also reach 3,000, or possibly even higher.
Still, no matter how you looked at it, he couldn't help looking down on such low-level battle power.
Way too weak!
With a system this overpowered, how could he be content to scrape by at the bottom? In this Dragon Ball World, danger lurked everywhere.
If he didn't grow stronger, someone could easily beat him to a pulp.
Tossing away the strange fruit in his hand, Mu Chuan stood up and addressed the aliens around him. "Destroy every living thing on this planet. We can sell it for a good price."
"We can't let King Frieza down. Otherwise, you can all look forward to being destroyed!"
The other aliens grinned viciously. They looked down on Mu Chuan too, but they knew their own strength was lacking and didn't dare show it.
Mu Chuan saw right through them, but he didn't particularly care. Right now, what mattered most was increasing his battle power as quickly as possible.
These useless aliens—
how could they possibly matter to him?
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
The aliens grabbed their weapons and scattered across the planet. These aliens were weak to begin with.
Their battle power had only increased by a tiny amount because of their equipment. They couldn't fire energy blasts on their own; everything depended on their gear and machines.
That showed just how weak these aliens were.
Still... they were much stronger than some of the life-forms in space. Most space creatures had no independent awareness at all and acted like beasts.
Mu Chuan had a clear target: the strongest fighter on the planet. That creature had a battle power of 3,000, and he had no idea what kind of thing it was.
He moved at tremendous speed, following the trail displayed on his Scouter.
Before long, he found the strongest creature.
It looked like a giant centipede, its entire body covered in armor, with rows of spikes jutting out and making it look especially vicious.
The centipede's body was enormous, its hide a purplish black. It had been feeding when it suddenly sensed Mu Chuan's arrival.
It immediately raised its head.
"Hiss!!"
"Interesting. I didn't expect to find such a monster here. Let's see if it can withstand my attack."
Bang!
Without hesitation, Mu Chuan charged straight at it, not even considering giving the centipede a chance to catch its breath.
The centipede felt provoked!
It immediately abandoned its prey and surged into the sky, heading straight for Mu Chuan.
In an instant, Mu Chuan transformed into Zarbon without the slightest hesitation. The muscles throughout his body doubled in size. Thankfully, he was wearing a battle suit, so his clothes didn't burst apart.
His face didn't become hideously ugly like Zarbon's, either. It only grew a little rounder, making him look just slightly chubbier.
But... his battle power skyrocketed.
2,700!
2,800!
3,400!!
His battle power climbed to 4,000 before finally stopping. Mu Chuan could feel the explosive strength surging through him.
"Hahaha..."
"This is it! This is what it feels like to be filled with power!!"
Since his rebirth, Mu Chuan had never felt more confident. After all, the first thing he'd seen when he opened his eyes was Frieza, looking like a demon. The sight had left a shadow in his heart.
He also knew just how cruel the Dragon Ball World was. Without overwhelming strength, he could easily be wiped out completely.
Especially once the timeline of the Dragon Ball World returned to its proper course. If he hadn't gotten stronger by then, someone might kill him.
He... didn't want that to happen.
His only option was to increase his strength. The Sign-in System was his only lifeline, and he desperately needed to sign in with Frieza.
He was the tyrant of the universe!
Although his strength wouldn't be considered all that impressive in the future, to Mu Chuan right now, he was still a truly terrifying existence.
What was more, Frieza had an ability that was crucial to him: the ability to survive in the vacuum of space.
If Mu Chuan had that ability, where couldn't he go?
But...
right now, what he needed most was to deal with the situation in front of him. Only after completing this mission could he return to Frieza's spaceship in peace.
"Die!"
"You monster!!"
Thump, thump!!
Two powerful energy blasts emerged from his hands and struck the centipede's head. At the same moment, the centipede's head exploded.
Just then, the system's notification rang out once again.
"Ding!"
"Time's up. Official sign-in commencing. Sign-in successful!"
"Sign-in reward: Limb Regeneration!!"
Mu Chuan froze for a moment. He hadn't realized a whole day had passed, and now the sign-in had gone through.
He was a little surprised, but when he realized what skill he'd received, a hint of delight crept onto his face.
This was completely unexpected!
It was also a stroke of luck. He couldn't believe he'd obtained Limb Regeneration. Perhaps it was a skill the centipede in front of him possessed.
Could that mean...
the centipede in front of him might not be dead yet?
Regardless, he now had this skill. For someone with a Saiyan's body, it was an especially powerful ability.
Whenever he was on the brink of death, his battle power would surge!
It was practically made for him!
