At this moment, King Cold was sitting on the tall throne made of a single piece of dark alloy in the center of the throne room. He supported his chin with one hand and listened expressionlessly to the trembling news reported by a young man at the bottom of the steps.
"What did you say? Cooler Planet 1... disappeared? A planet with a diameter larger than this planet, with an entire legion of elite troops stationed on it, equipped with the most advanced planetary defense system in the universe... disappeared?" King Cold's tone suddenly rose, and even the tone that was always as cold as an ice cellar had a clear break.
His tall body suddenly jumped up from the throne, and he clenched the armrests with both hands, his knuckles making a harsh metal friction sound from the force.
"Sir King Cold... According to the on-site survey report of the scout ship, there is only a cooling interstellar debris left at the coordinates of the star field where Cooler Planet 1 is located. The planet itself has completely disintegrated, and all the garrisons and facilities on it have been destroyed. Preliminary judgment... It is that the star core was detonated from the inside by some extremely high-intensity energy." The boy in charge of the report knelt on one knee on the ground, his whole body shaking violently due to extreme fear.
Throughout his career, reporting bad news to King Cold has been a job with an extremely high mortality rate...
The last person who was sent to report similar news was later blown up into a bloody mist by King Cold with one finger. Not even ashes were left.
"Whoops!"
King Cold's face suddenly turned cold, and without any unnecessary movement, he waved his hand gently in the air at the little brother who was shaking like chaff.
An invisible compressed energy wave instantly swept across the position where the younger brother was kneeling. With a dull explosion, the younger brother's body exploded on the spot, turning into a dark red blood mist that spread rapidly in mid-air.
"Huh... I don't like people who tell the truth. The truth always makes people feel uncomfortable." King Cold retracted his hand, as if he just swatted a fly that flew past his ear.
His eyes slowly swept over the remaining boys, and every boy who was touched by his eyes buried their heads lower.
"You... continue to investigate the situation of Cooler Planet 1. I want to know who did it, what weapon was used, and whether any witnesses are alive... No details can be spared."
"Yes... yes! Lord King Cold!" The little brother who was tapped by King Cold with his finger shivered violently in fright, and the cold sweat on his back soaked the entire lining of Battle Suit in a few seconds.
He knew very well that no matter what the outcome of the investigation was, it would be difficult for everyone standing here today to walk out of this throne room alive.
However, before the named boy could turn around to carry out King Cold's order, an extremely dazzling purple-red light struck vertically from the center of the sky above Planet King Cold 1 without any warning.
"Boom..."
Accompanied by a loud noise that seemed to shatter the entire universe, Planet King Cold 1 suffered a chain collapse starting from the star core under the frontal bombardment of this purple-red destructive energy.
The defensive forts, garrison bases and densely packed metal buildings all over the planet's surface were blown into billions of flying fragments at the same moment.
The entire planet completely disintegrated from the inside out like a trampled egg.
King Cold's reaction was the fastest among all the indigenous people of the destroyed planet...
The moment before the destructive energy touched the ceiling of the throne room, he had already torn the air in front of him with both hands, and his entire huge body turned into a stream of deep purple light, breaking through the collapsing palace dome at an unimaginable speed, and plunged into the vast and cold space of the universe.
He was suspended in the vacuum and looked back at the surging and spreading debris field of the planet behind him.
Planet King Cold 1, which was an intact military fortress planet not long ago, has now completely turned into an interstellar ruin that is gradually cooling down.
Then, he saw the silver-white large ship Flying Saucer, leisurely floating in the starry sky not far from the planet's debris zone.
The Flying Saucer's hull does not have any obvious legion logos, but the design style of the hull itself has a vague sense of technology that does not belong to Universe 7.
Outside the open side hatch of Flying Saucer, several people were standing side by side.
King Cold's cold and deep eyes just scanned those figures and immediately locked onto a silhouette that he least wanted to see...
That little one who always has his arms crossed and his chin raised.
"Vegeta? You, a little Saiyan Prince, dare to come to my home planet and destroy my King Cold planet... Do you know what you are doing?" King Cold's voice exploded in the form of energy in the vacuum, and every word was filled with irrepressible rage and disbelief.
"Hmph... If you want to destroy us Planet Vegeta, then I will come over and destroy all your planets one by one. You asked your son Frieza to gather us Saiyan together and prepare to kill them all. Do you think we don't know about this?" Vegeta folded his arms and floated in the vacuum, with undisguised pride written on his young face.
"Seeking death!" King Cold was furious and did not say another word.
He stretched out his right hand, and within a few tenths of a second, the tip of his index finger condensed a ball of red destructive energy that was so compressed that it almost collapsed into a black hole. That energy turned into a fiery red beam that ripped through the void, and shot towards Vegeta.
"Crack!"
Vegeta didn't even make a dodge move.
He stood there and slapped his backhand cleanly...
The palm collided head-on with the roaring red beam, causing a crisp explosion.
The energy beam, which was enough to blow up a city, bounced in the other direction like a ping pong ball under his palm, silently exploding into a fleeting spark in the distant starry sky.
Reiz and others had no intention of taking action, they just stood quietly and watched the show.
Vegeta was beaten violently by Supreme Kai in Sacred World of the Kai, and Korin Tower was poisoned to death by Ultra Divine Water on Earth. Resurrected again, although Combat Power has not yet broken through the sky, he is no longer the little kid who needs Reiz to take action against the Frieza Force elites.
Let him practice with King Cold, which is the best practical test.
King Cold's eyes widened, and for the first time a hint of unprepared surprise flashed through those eyes that were always as cold as the abyss.
"Hmph hum... hum hum!" King Cold was silent for a moment, then raised his head and let out a series of low and hoarse sneers, "Vegeta little Prince... No wonder you dare to come over and destroy my planet. It turns out that your Combat Power has indeed grown a lot during this time... Your growth rate surprised me."
