"Captain of the Ginyu Force!"

Louis recognized the purple-skinned guy beside Frieza.

"You actually know who I am?"

Ginyu snorted. Then he noticed something and pointed at the tail behind Louis, exclaiming in alarm, "King Frieza, he's a Saiyan!"

It was no wonder Ginyu was so frightened. The Saiyans had changed so much over the years that some of them had even grown close to matching his power.

They were Saiyans, after all!

If the other guy transformed into a Great Ape, his battle power would increase tenfold!

"Saiyan!"

Frieza narrowed his eyes. He'd been troubled by the Saiyan problem for years. He never expected one to dare invade his headquarters now!

"Let's see how strong he is!"

"Yes, I'll see just how much battle power he has! How dare he invade King Frieza's headquarters!"

Ginyu pressed his Scouter.

[Beep beep beep!]

[Battle power: 100,000.]

Gulp!

Ginyu swallowed. This guy actually had 100,000 battle power!

Frieza, sitting in his "baby carriage," noticed Ginyu's expression and narrowed his eyes. "How much battle power does he have?"

Ginyu wiped the sweat from his face. "King Frieza, he has 100,000 battle power!"

The surrounding aliens all took a step back, their faces filled with terror.

The captain of the Ginyu Force only had 120,000 battle power. This kid actually had 100,000?

Frieza raised an eyebrow. The killing intent radiating from him vanished in an instant, and he smiled. "You're quite strong, sir. Come work for me. If you agree, I'll overlook your invasion of my headquarters."

Frieza was fond of talent. Whenever he encountered a strong fighter, he couldn't help wanting to recruit them.

Louis's lips curled slightly. "And what if I refuse?"

Tights held his hand, quietly listening as the boy beside her spoke with the Emperor of the Universe.

It felt so good to be protected!

"Refuse?"

Frieza's expression darkened instantly. "Then you won't be leaving my headquarters!"

At their king's words, the surrounding aliens all stepped forward.

The atmosphere grew tense.

"We'll see whether I can leave later."

Louis chuckled. "Frieza, I came here to find some people."

Find someone?

Frieza paused, then said coldly, "Looks to me like you came here to die!"

"Ginyu, attack!"

As Emperor of the Universe, Frieza couldn't contain his fury any longer. Someone had invaded his headquarters and dared to provoke him again and again.

"Yes!"

Ginyu twisted his body and vanished.

The next moment, he appeared behind Louis.

"Kid, the difference between 100,000 and 120,000 battle power is huge. Die!"

A wild energy sphere formed in Ginyu's palm. He slammed it toward Louis.

Louis remained expressionless. Tights, whose hand he was holding, didn't look frightened either.

Had they given up resisting?

Frieza frowned from his "baby carriage."

Just then—

"100,000 battle power is weak? What about a million?"

Louis smiled as the power within him erupted.

In an instant!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Every Scouter belonging to the aliens present exploded.

Rumble—!

The powerful shock wave scattered Ginyu's energy sphere, then blasted him away, slamming him hard into the ground.

"N-no way!"

Ginyu's pupils shrank as he lay on the ground. The Scouter beside his ear had turned into a piece of scrap metal.

It had all happened in an instant.

Just moments ago, he'd watched the battle-power reading shoot up at an incredible speed. Then the Scouter couldn't take it and exploded.

"Tights, were you scared just now?" Louis asked with a smile.

"You said you'd protect me, so I wasn't scared."

Tights smiled sweetly.

Her skin was fair as snow, and her hair was golden!

Looking at Tights, Louis paused, then said, "I think you'd look even better with long hair."

Long hair?

Tights touched her hair, about to ask him something...

But Louis had already turned to look at Frieza, so Tights had no choice but to keep quiet. She tucked his words away in her heart.

"Enough. My time is precious, Frieza. Have all your men come here."

Louis's voice turned cold. "Or else..."

"Or else what?"

Frieza jumped down from his "baby carriage" and walked forward.

"You don't think a million battle power means you can do whatever you want at my headquarters, do you?"

Frieza had just heard Louis's conversation with Ginyu. He hadn't expected the kid to be hiding his true strength!

Ginyu, still lying on the ground, brightened. Rumor had it that Frieza had always been hiding his power.

Could it be true?

"Tights, do you remember who was hunting you?" Louis asked, turning his head without paying any attention to Frieza as he approached.

Tights thought for a moment. "I think it was a gang called Cui's."

"Cui?"

Louis frowned. That piece of trash had been killed by Vegeta in the anime, if he remembered right!

"Kid, you're asking for it!"

Frieza, walking toward him, was furious. This man with only a million battle power had actually ignored him!

Frieza prepared to unlock his transformation.

Louis suddenly vanished from Tights's side and appeared in front of Frieza. He drove his knee into Frieza's abdomen!

Bang!

Frieza went flying!

"Urgh!"

Frieza hit the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood!

Everyone present was stunned. This couldn't be real!

That was the Emperor of the Universe, Frieza! And a stranger had beaten him until he was coughing up blood.

"Ahhhhh!"

"You've really made me angry! I'll kill you!"

Frieza got to his feet and roared hysterically, his power erupting.

His first transformation had fully unlocked!

Frieza changed form, becoming more muscular. He looked a lot like King Cold!

His power had surpassed a million.

The aliens present were all delighted. Their king had been hiding his strength too!

But...

"Enough talk!"

Louis appeared in front of Frieza the next instant and threw a punch.

Rumble—!

The terrifying force shattered every one of Frieza's teeth.

"Pfft!"

Broken teeth mixed with blood sprayed through the air.

"Ahhhhh!"

Frieza was flung aside and collapsed weakly on the ground. How could this happen? Why couldn't he beat the other guy when they both had a million battle power?

"Frieza, look at this."

Louis used Instant Transmission to appear in front of Frieza. He grabbed Frieza by the head with one hand and lifted him up.

With his other hand, he formed a Destruction Energy Sphere.

A wave of destruction swept across Frieza's entire headquarters!

The wind howled!

Lightning flashed and thunder roared!

The aliens surrounding them were instantly swept off their feet. Their very souls trembled.

"D-Destruction God!"

With Destruction Energy right before his eyes, Frieza's pupils shrank. His entire body trembled from the depths of his soul.

He recognized this power!

It was a God of Destruction's power!

Who was this Saiyan? Wasn't Beerus the God of Destruction of Universe 7?

Why could this person wield Destruction Energy?

"Hmph. Bring Cui here!"

Louis tossed Frieza aside as if he were garbage. The Destruction Energy in his hand dissipated along with the motion.

"Y-yes!"

Frieza gritted his broken teeth, humiliation gnawing at him. But since he didn't know who this man was, he didn't dare voice a single complaint.

He climbed to his feet.

"Bring Cui here!!!"

Frieza roared at his men.

Ginyu hurriedly used his communicator to summon Cui to Frieza's palace.

"Y-your Excellency, may I ask who you are?"

Frieza wiped the blood from his lips, then cautiously approached and bowed.

He looked terrified, but deep in his eyes lurked a trace of malice.

Louis looked at Frieza, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. "Are you unhappy about this?"

Louis looked down at Frieza, the wicked curve of his lips making him seem overwhelmingly domineering. Tights pressed a hand to her chest. Louis was so handsome!

"N-no, I wouldn't dare!"

Frieza clenched his fists, forced to give an answer he didn't mean.

"Hahaha, just as I thought. You really are Lord Beerus's representative, Frieza. You're quite interesting."

Louis laughed.

A trace of confusion flashed through Frieza's eyes. This man knew Beerus?

If that was what he meant, then Beerus wasn't dead yet!

So this man couldn't be the new God of Destruction. But he could wield Destruction Energy!

A flash of insight crossed Frieza's mind.

Frieza asked tentatively, "You must be Lord Beerus's disciple, sir!"

"Oh? You guessed it!"

"Greetings, Candidate God of Destruction! I didn't recognize you just now. Please forgive me!"

Frieza trembled. Was this Candidate God of Destruction here to avenge his people after seeing them hunted down?

As if seeing into Frieza's thoughts, Louis said, "Enough nonsense. I won't interfere in your feud with the Saiyans. I'm only here to avenge Tights!"

Tights gazed intently at Louis, warmth sweeping through her heart.

She wanted to ask Louis why he was so good to her, but when she saw the ugly aliens around them, she couldn't bring herself to ask.

Louis didn't notice Tights's expression. He kept his eyes on Frieza.

In fact, besides completing his sign-in task, he'd come to Frieza's headquarters intending to destroy Frieza and his men outright.

But then he thought of Son Goku, Vegeta, and the Saiyan race!

They needed to go through a few hardships, after all!

Maybe Frieza's hunt would even lead to more Super Saiyans appearing among the Saiyans!

So Louis let Frieza and his people go.

Frieza glanced at the woman beside Louis. Was he getting revenge for her?

He'd caused all this just to get revenge for her?

Frieza was furious inside, but he remained cautious in his manner. "Candidate God of Destruction, are you saying you won't get involved in my affairs with the Saiyans?"

Just then!

A figure dropped from the sky and landed at the entrance to the palace.

It was Cui!

"What happened?"

Cui suddenly noticed Tights and burst out laughing. "King Frieza, this woman has a very remarkable Capsule. If we get our hands on the technology behind it, we'll be rich."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong!

Why was everything so silent? Everyone was looking at him strangely.

"Tights, is he the one?"

"Mm!"

Tights looked at Cui, remembering the days when she'd been hunted down. She gritted her teeth.

"Then die!"

Louis raised his hand. "Destruction!"

A blast of purple Destruction Energy struck Cui. He vanished instantly, without even a chance to struggle!

"Gulp!"

All the aliens present swallowed nervously. What a terrifying Saiyan!

"Tights, let's go!"

After killing Cui, Louis used the Instant Transmission he'd received as a system reward and took Tights away.

Only a crowd of stunned aliens remained behind.

"King Frieza, should we keep hunting the Saiyans?"

"Hold off for now!"

Frieza clenched his fists.

The Saiyans hiding at Galactic Patrol Headquarters was one thing, but he'd never expected one of them to become a Candidate God of Destruction.

But that man had just said he wouldn't get involved in his affairs with the Saiyans.

Then again, Gods of Destruction were responsible for destruction across the universe. They were cold and uncaring gods by nature!

It was entirely possible that the Candidate God of Destruction had been telling the truth!

But regardless, he was a Saiyan. Would he really stay out of their affairs?

After leaving Frieza's headquarters, Louis took Tights to a planet covered in primeval forest.

The planet didn't meet the standards, so Louis planned to destroy it.

"Louis!"

"Hmm?"

Louis walked through the forest and turned around.

Tights wore a tight-fitting outfit that showed off her stunning figure to the fullest.

Louis rubbed his nose. "What is it?"

Tights hesitated, then spoke.

Louis smiled. "Go ahead. Tell me."

"Nothing. I just wanted to ask if you really think I'd look good with long hair."

She'd wanted to ask why he'd taken revenge for her when all he'd promised was to protect her.

But in the end, she couldn't bring herself to ask.

"I think it would look good."

Louis nodded. With long, golden waves, how could it not?

"All right, I'm going to destroy this planet."

Louis tossed a ball of Destruction Energy toward the ground, then took Tights with him using Instant Transmission.

After destroying several hundred planets, he completed the mission.

Louis took Tights back to the God of Destruction Realm.

Louis returned to his training, while Tights, after being brought back, remained distracted.
