Bank Robbery

Planet Vegeta

"Report to King Bei, we have an anomaly in the flight logs of one of our ships."

Amidst the banquet, a guard reported to King Vegeta.

"An anomaly in the flight logs?" King Vegeta had just managed to extricate himself from the tedious banquet, and hearing this news put him in a foul mood. "What are the specifics? Speak quickly."

"It is like this: among the ships sent to clear out the Dwarf Planet, one has veered off course without receiving any orders, heading toward the XY Sector. Our technicians accessed their preset destination; it appears to be a low-level planet called Earth. King Bei, what should we do..." the guard asked respectfully for instructions.

"Acting on their own initiative? Hmph, they had better be conquering that planet for me, or they will pay the price. Go ahead and file a record for now. Wait a couple of years before sending someone to check on them. You should know what to do," King Bei said with a gloomy face.

"Yes, King Bei, this subordinate understands."

Earth, an uninhabited suburb south of Eastern Bank in a certain country

A brilliant streak of light cut across the sky like a meteor. Following the flash, a deafening boom erupted in the uninhabited suburb south of Eastern Bank—the result of the spaceship carrying Sun Yu and Lana making intimate contact with the ground.

"Haha, we finally made it!" Sun Yu climbed out of the spaceship, pulling Lana along. He stretched wantonly, feeling incredibly refreshed.

"Kael, I feel like the gravity on this planet is so weak. Can one really learn how to cultivate ki in a place like this?" Lana looked around at the environment, pouting.

"Let me put it this way: Earthlings have a combat power of only 5 when they are born. By the time they reach adulthood, some exceptional individuals can reach over 10. Yet, even among a race like this, there are those who can raise their combat power to over 100 through the study of martial arts." Sun Yu paused, then continued, "If Earthlings with such poor base stats can achieve such a massive leap, imagine what level your combat power could reach if you and I mastered this method of cultivation!"

"This... if what you say is true, then it is possible for my combat power to break 10,000 when I reach adulthood, right Kael?" Upon hearing that she could increase her combat power so significantly, Lana's eyes immediately sparkled with excitement.

You can get this excited just by breaking 10,000? Sun Yu mused to himself. He knew that according to the Dragon Ball anime, when Son Goku completed his 100x gravity training, it was officially stated that he possessed power surpassing the limits of a Saiyan. In other words, when a Saiyan reaches a combat power of 10,000, they have only just begun to tap into their true potential.

However, Sun Yu couldn't tell Lana any of this, so he just smiled and replied, "That goes without saying. A boost to 10,000 combat power is actually nothing."

"Wow, Kael, don't lie to me. 10,000 combat power is enough to surpass King Bei, right? When that time comes, I'm going back to become the new queen of Planet Vegeta. Hahaha..."

Lana danced with excitement. Beside her, Sun Yu felt cold sweat break out on his forehead, wondering if bringing her to Earth was a mistake. He prayed that this young lady wouldn't get a whim to conquer Earth and decide to become a queen here first.

"Kael, hurry and take me to the strong fighters on Earth so I can train!" Lana said excitedly.

"Yeah," Sun Yu replied casually, then pulled out a Scouter and put it on his ear. "Heh, let me see where these strong fighters are hiding."

"Beep, beep, beep. Low combat power unit detected, combat power 5, combat power 8, combat power 12..."

After a full sweep, nothing exceeded 20, which left Sun Yu feeling quite awkward. "Damn it, how can I not detect them? It must be because they are hiding their ki!"

Thinking about it, it made sense. According to the Dragon Ball anime, Son Goku hadn't arrived on Earth yet. This was a time of peace, and the strongest person currently was the Guardian. However, he was not a combat-type Namekian, so his ki was completely internalized, making it impossible to locate him with a Scouter. As for Master Roshi, it went without saying; he was just a lecherous old man who spent his days reading adult magazines and thinking about how to grope girls.

"What an unlucky start," Sun Yu sighed helplessly.

"Hey, Kael, I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat first!" Seeing Sun Yu's troubled expression, Lana suggested.

Sun Yu flew into the air and saw a city not far away, so he agreed to Lana's suggestion. "Fine, let's go eat, my little glutton!"

"Tch, you're the glutton, and I'm older than you, okay!" Lana rolled her eyes at Sun Yu.

"Wait..." Sun Yu called out to Lana. "There's a saying: 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do.' You promised me you wouldn't cause trouble on Earth. Buying food on this planet requires money!"

"Do you have money?" Lana tilted her head and asked Sun Yu.

Clearly, Sun Yu had been waiting for Lana to ask. He smiled mysteriously and said, "Come on, I'll take you to rob a bank!"

Sun Yu didn't want to be like the protagonists in some transmigration novels who hunted wild beasts to trade their furs for money. Was that something a noble Saiyan would do? Obviously not! As it stood, Sun Yu was an invincible existence on Earth. He suddenly had a perverse curiosity to see what robbing a bank felt like. Imagining himself punching through an ATM and pulling out stacks of cash—that scene would surely be intense.

Of course, for Sun Yu, this was just a small prank. After all, he was on a different level now. He was about to face Frieza, who sought to rule the universe. He wouldn't just sit back and watch Son Goku grow, hoping for him to defeat Frieza. If possible, Sun Yu wanted to face Frieza himself and stomp him into the dirt.

Although Lana didn't quite understand what "robbing a bank" meant, she found Sun Yu's description interesting and became intrigued.

The two flew all the way and soon arrived at the city center. The architecture here was extremely similar to the cities in the Dragon Ball world, and their level of civilization was much higher than the Earth Sun Yu had come from, as evidenced by the solar-powered hovercars passing by.

Seeing a grand building ahead with the large English words "Eastern Bank" written on it, Sun Yu decided right then and there to rob this place. "Lana, we're robbing this one. Let's head down, but remember, don't hurt anyone."

Lana nodded. The two descended rapidly to the ground, only to find that pedestrians at the bank entrance were in a panic, fleeing in all directions. It seemed something had happened.

Sun Yu was curious, so he stopped an elderly man with white hair and asked, "Old man, do you know what happened up ahead?"

"Ah? You don't know, young man? There are armed robbers inside the bank, and they've taken many hostages. I think you'd better not go any further, lest you get caught up in it!" the old man kindly advised.

"Huh?" Sun Yu was stunned. He thought to himself, Do you have to queue up to rob a bank these days? This was something he couldn't tolerate. Time to kick some ass!

Just then, police sirens blared, seemingly to liven up the atmosphere. Several police cars sped past. After the officers got out, they pulled out megaphones and shouted, "People inside, listen up! You are surrounded! Release the hostages and surrender immediately..."

(PS: For those moral guardians who start complaining the moment they see bank robbery, let me clarify: the author will set up many plot twists. If you pay a little attention, you will find many pieces of foreshadowing.)
