Arriving at Planet Vegeta!

A large spherical spaceship joined the Frieza Force fleet, followed closely by numerous smaller spaceships.

This was Mu Chuan's battle squad.

The spaceship docked with the flagship.

They entered Frieza's flagship without a hitch.

A member of the logistics crew hurried over.

"Sir, King Frieza has ordered you to see him as soon as possible!"

Mu Chuan nodded and headed straight over.

He wasn't surprised in the slightest. Although his battle power wasn't very high, his Saiyan heritage meant he was bound to stand out in the Frieza Force.

No matter where he went or how much stronger he became, someone would always be keeping an eye on him!

That was why he'd gone to Solas Planet so openly. He hadn't been worried about Frieza finding out at all.

Given Frieza's pride and arrogance, he generally wouldn't pay attention to Mu Chuan as long as he didn't cross the line.

Besides, the battle power he showed was only a few thousand—hardly enough to make Frieza truly wary of him.

He arrived before Frieza.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

"Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho..."

"So it's you!"

"How did the mission go?" Frieza asked languidly, swirling the glass of red wine in his hand.

To him, it didn't really matter whether the mission had been completed. He was just making conversation.

Mu Chuan knew that, of course, and answered without hesitation. "The mission is complete!"

"Huan'er Planet has been sold off!"

"I heard you also went to Solas Planet?"

As soon as Frieza said this, Mu Chuan knew they were getting to the real reason he'd been summoned.

"I considered myself too weak to be of much help to King Frieza, so I wanted to use this opportunity to quickly increase my battle power."

"That's why I went to Solas Planet and had the Solas People build a Gravity Chamber. With one, I can train more effectively and raise my battle power!"

"If my battle power improves, I'll be able to help King Frieza even more!"

At Mu Chuan's words, Zarbon and Popolia narrowed their eyes.

That detestable wild monkey even knew how to flatter people!

Everyone knew King Frieza loved hearing things like that. If he was pleased, he might let this wild monkey run even more rampant!

Zarbon knew perfectly well that King Frieza would never trust a Saiyan.

But Popolia was another matter...

He was narrow-minded and couldn't stand anyone else currying favor with King Frieza. So now, Mu Chuan had become extremely irritating to him.

However, regardless of what they thought, Frieza was clearly delighted.

"Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho... Very good, very good. You know how to shoulder some of the burden for me."

"Do you know where I'm headed this time?"

Mu Chuan was taken aback and quickly shook his head.

Even if he did know, he wouldn't dare say so. It would be hard to explain how he'd found out. Better to pretend he knew nothing.

Frieza continued, "My destination this time is your Saiyan homeworld, Planet Vegeta!"

When he heard Planet Vegeta mentioned, Mu Chuan made sure to look surprised.

Frieza clearly noticed.

A smile played on Frieza's lips.

"I have a task for you!"

"On Planet Vegeta, there is currently a large group of ambitious Saiyans who are leading the planet toward ruin."

"These ambitious Saiyans are fanatical and relentless. They could bring about the Saiyans' destruction at any moment. Your task is to make every Saiyan outside that group of fanatics wholeheartedly follow me!"

"Do you think you can do it?"

When Frieza finished speaking, his tail tapped lightly against his small hovercraft. The whole room fell deathly quiet.

Zarbon and Popolia didn't dare speak.

Mu Chuan promptly lowered his head. If anyone had looked closely, they would have seen a hint of a smile in his eyes.

He'd been planning to form his own Saiyan team, but had no idea where to start and was struggling with it.

Who could have guessed Frieza would hand him the opportunity? It was like having a pillow delivered just as he was getting sleepy!

And he'd been given free rein to act...

With an imperial mandate in hand, if he couldn't pull this off, he might as well give up!

Besides, he understood Frieza's requirements clearly.

Ambitious Saiyans... That meant the Saiyans led by King Bejita, didn't it?

The rest could be spared!

The thought filled him with excitement.

Before he'd been transported here, every time he watched Dragon Ball, he'd imagined how mighty the Saiyans might have become if they hadn't been wiped out and had been allowed to develop normally.

They were a true warrior race!

They'd simply never fully developed in the early days, and they hadn't found the right path. If they were given the chance and the time, and moved in the right direction...

They would become the most terrifying race in the universe!

Once, it had been nothing but a daydream.

Now it might actually come true—and he'd be the one to make it happen. How could he not be thrilled?

Still, he managed to suppress his feelings and put on a hesitant look before raising his head to face Frieza.

"I... will complete the mission!"

"I'll be watching with great interest!"

The Frieza Force fleet made its way onward at a leisurely pace.

Before long, it arrived at Planet Vegeta.

The entire fleet slowly descended.

Planet Vegeta's logistics department quickly took charge, guiding the Frieza Force fleet down to the surface.

Planet Vegeta had originally been called Planet Plant.

Its native inhabitants, the Tuffles, were highly intelligent and possessed advanced technology. They were relatively weak themselves and loved peace.

When the Saiyans arrived on Planet Plant, the Tuffles wanted only to coexist peacefully with them. But the Saiyans were an exceedingly savage race.

Especially during the full moon!

Whenever the full moon rose, all the Saiyans turned into Great Apes and rampaged across Planet Plant. During that time, the Tuffles were completely wiped out by the Great Ape Saiyans.

From then on, the Saiyans occupied Planet Plant alone.

Since King Vegeta was the first King of the Saiyans, he renamed the planet Planet Vegeta. The Saiyans also took over the technology Planet Plant had developed.

Otherwise, a savage race like the Saiyans could never have developed such advanced technology.

The Frieza Force landed.

All the Saiyans came out and gazed up at the enormous fleet in the sky. Every one of them felt an unprecedented pressure!

It was the oppressive presence of the Emperor of the Universe!

At the forefront, King Vegeta led a group of Elite Warriors to welcome Frieza. For now, King Vegeta acted as though he held Frieza in the highest regard.

Not the slightest hint of his ambition was visible.

But savagery was etched into the Saiyans' very bones. They could never remain subservient forever—not even to the so-called Emperor of the Universe, Frieza.

To the Saiyans, he was nothing more than a stepping stone!
