With My Highest Combat Power, I Can Do Whatever I Want!

Reiz pulled Linoshi by the hand as they stepped into the Spaceship.

Their feet struck the metal floor, emitting a faint, rhythmic sound.

The interior of the ship was more spacious than imagined, with various instruments and pipes lining the walls of the corridor, and the air was filled with a faint metallic scent.

Vegeta hurried to follow, his eyes darting around vigilantly.

"Creak—"

The hatch of the Spaceship closed slowly behind them, sealing off the starry void outside.

"Huff, huff, huff!"

Vegeta gasped for air, his chest heaving as he glanced back with lingering fear, confirming the hatch was securely shut.

That was too close!

He had nearly died out there in the vacuum of space.

From now on, he, Vegeta, would absolutely never expose his body to the vacuum of space again!

"Are you an idiot?" Reiz turned back to lecture Vegeta, his tone filled with exasperation.

"You... what do you mean by that?" Vegeta snorted, his young face full of defiance.

"I released the Force Field while inside the Spaceship, and while doing so, I compressed a portion of the air inside along with it, which is the only reason we could survive in space!" Reiz looked at him as if he were a lost cause, poking Vegeta with his finger. "As long as you reduce your oxygen consumption, you can survive for a long time. But you? You just released a Force Field directly into the vacuum of space; that's about as useful as a fart."

Vegeta: "..."

Vegeta thought about it, and it actually made sense.

What you say is so reasonable that I don't even know how to refute it.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found he had no words.

He could only shut his mouth sullenly, his face flushing a deep red.

As Vegeta's teacher, Reiz had a responsibility to guide him.

The Vegeta from the original story didn't seem this stupid.

Did I manage to teach him into stupidity?

Releasing a Force Field in a vacuum—it would be a miracle if that worked!

Linoshi couldn't help but be amused, the corners of her mouth curling upward, though she ultimately didn't laugh out loud.

She lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly as she struggled to hold back her mirth.

"Wahaha!"

Just as Linoshi managed to stay quiet, someone in the distance let out a burst of unbridled, manic laughter.

The laughter was sharp and piercing, echoing through the empty ship, filled with mockery and triumph.

Vegeta was incensed, immediately whipping his head toward the source of the sound.

At a single glance, Vegeta's pupils contracted, and his expression turned deathly pale.

Not far ahead, a pink figure stood there, arms crossed over his chest, wearing his signature sinister grin.

He was burly and obese, clad in the combat armor of the Frieza Force, his eyes brimming with derision.

"Do... Dodo... Dodoria!" Vegeta stammered, instinctively taking half a step back. "It really is you!"

"There's no need for all those 'Do's!" Dodoria squinted his eyes and wagged a finger, his tone flippant. "Just call me Mr. Dodoria."

"Why are you here?" Vegeta asked through gritted teeth, struggling to maintain his composure.

Earlier, when Reiz said there was a high probability the pursuer was Dodoria, Vegeta had actually been skeptical.

Why would Dodoria follow them?

Now that he saw Dodoria standing right there, Vegeta felt a surge of panic.

A Combat Power of 22,000—a full 7,000 higher than his own; this gap was not insignificant.

Furthermore, his Scouter was now able to detect Dodoria's power level.

The screen clearly displayed: Combat Power 22,000.

This guy's power really had reached the height of 22,000.

This was bad!

"You lot need to get your facts straight. This is my Spaceship. You come onto my ship, and then you have the audacity to question why I'm here?" Dodoria laughed, clearly enjoying himself, his layers of fat quivering.

"You were the one tracking our ship! What is your goal? Did Frieza arrange for you to do this?" Vegeta demanded angrily, clenching his fists.

"Heh, heh, heh." Dodoria snorted, his smile vanishing. "Lord Frieza has already issued an order: in one month, we will join forces to attack a Super Star."

He paused, his gaze turning icy.

"For this reason, Lord Frieza has strictly forbidden anyone from leaving Planet Vegeta! Little Prince Vegeta, you disobeyed orders and left the planet without authorization! What say you to your crimes?"

"Hmph, I am a Saiyan. Why should I listen to the orders of a guy like Frieza?" Vegeta retorted, standing his ground and stiffening his neck.

"On what grounds?" Dodoria sneered, a cruel glint in his eyes.

"Swish!"

The next moment, Dodoria flickered, vanishing from his spot.

Vegeta's pupils constricted, his gaze darting around, but he couldn't track him.

In an instant, Dodoria appeared behind Linoshi.

He was too fast, so fast that Vegeta couldn't react at all.

"Because my Combat Power is the highest! I can do whatever I want here!" Dodoria's face contorted in madness as he lunged a claw towards Linoshi's back.

His fingers were spread, their tips glinting coldly. This strike was enough to rip out a normal person's heart.

Clearly, Dodoria intended to make an example of Linoshi in front of Vegeta.

To kill her kin in front of the young prince.

It would absolutely enrage Vegeta.

And then he would beat him soundly, forcing him to kill his own teacher with his own hands.

Dodoria found the thought exhilarating.

This would be incredibly amusing.

His claw shot towards Linoshi's back with extreme speed.

The claw wind was sharp, tearing through the air with a piercing whistle.

Linoshi: "..."

Why are you coming for me?

Is it because my Combat Power is only 200?

She stood there, motionless, a flicker of confusion in her blue eyes.

Linoshi was just about to dodge.

With her agility, with the innate Ultra Instinct of an Angel, even if Dodoria's claw was ten thousand times faster, it wouldn't touch her.

Her body had already shifted slightly, her instincts making the most precise evasion prediction.

However, someone moved faster.

"Snap!"

Reiz's large hand shot forward, grabbing Dodoria's wrist.

The force was so great that Dodoria's attack froze mid-air, unable to advance another inch.

Although Reiz knew perfectly well that Linoshi's agility would allow her to easily dodge Dodoria's attack.

But he didn't want to test such things.

Since Linoshi is so good to me, I'll treat her as my girlfriend and protect her well.

Treat her like a normal girlfriend!

From now on, I will protect her.

Reiz's gaze was firm, his fingers gripping Dodoria's wrist like iron pincers, unmoving.

Dodoria froze, turning to look at Reiz, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Linoshi suddenly felt a warmth spread through her heart.
