Ginyu Force 2

Tights looked at Karochi with confusion and asked, "How did you guess their identities?" Surely that couldn't be right; could he really identify them just from a few red dots?

Karochi didn't answer immediately. He was suspicious, but far from certain! It didn't make sense; Frieza shouldn't even spare a glance at a low-level planet like this, let alone a high-tech one. Even if he wanted to enslave the Fidelian, he shouldn't have dispatched the Ginyu Force to do it.

Isn't that like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, or a butcher's knife to slaughter a chicken? It's illogical!

"I have a guess, but I'm not sure! Logically, they shouldn't be on a planet like this, but just in case, we should send out some probes to investigate!" Regardless of whether they were the Ginyu Force, it was certain that whoever they were, they possessed immense combat power and were not here with good intentions.

To be safe, it was better to let the reconnaissance robots conduct an on-site inspection.

"Fine! I get it, you're being all mysterious about it!" Tights felt quite annoyed that Karochi was keeping things from her.

Karochi gave a bitter smile. It's not that I don't want to tell you, sister, it's just that I'm not sure! There's no point in saying anything yet.

"Which point should we observe? Just one of them?" Tights asked. After all, Karochi was better at this sort of thing! She really couldn't judge the strength of others.

Karochi waved his hand. "No, detect the two points that are closest to each other, the ones furthest away! If my judgment is correct, the one standing alone is the strongest among them."

If it really was the Ginyu Force, that lone individual was most likely Ginyu!

"OK, honestly, I was using these for filming material!" Tights said, feeling a bit of heartache as she loaded several bee-sized miniature machines into a small aircraft.

These were things she had asked Dr. Brief to specially create for her to gather footage. They were used for filming, recording, and capturing video in dangerous places or narrow areas that were inconvenient to reach.

"Alright, Tights, don't worry about those! We don't have any other choice right now, do we? You don't want us to end up drifting through the universe, do you?" Karochi shrugged. Besides, if it really was the Ginyu Force, he would just have to work hard to wipe them all out, and then he could have the Fidelian make some more for her, right?

They shouldn't refuse, after all, he would be their savior!

It wasn't that Karochi was underestimating the Ginyu Force; after training under 100x gravity, his combat power had reached 90,000! By powering up, he could even break through to over 100,000.

Of course, if this were twenty years later, Karochi definitely wouldn't be foolish enough to face them head-on, because the strongest fighter at that time, Ginyu, had a power level of 120,000. In the early stages of Dragon Ball, a gap of 20,000 or 30,000 had a significant impact on the outcome of a battle, let alone being 20,000 lower than his opponent.

But it wasn't twenty years later yet, was it? Karochi wouldn't believe for a second that the current Ginyu had a power level of 120,000! After all, no matter what, it was impossible for him not to have improved at all over twenty years.

Furthermore, aside from Guldo and Ginyu, who required special attention, the others like Recoome, Burter, and Jeice could be defeated with brute force; there was no difficulty there at all.

"Fine! I'm just complaining, it's ready for launch!!!" Tights pressed the launch button, and a probe was ejected, flying toward the planet Fidel.

"Phew, now we just wait for the results! And I'm sorry, it's because I kept stopping along the way that led to this result." She knew Karochi would likely face a bitter battle ahead, and she finally lowered her head to apologize.

Karochi was stunned. What the? Did the sun rise in the west today? Tights is actually admitting she was wrong! This doesn't make sense!

Tights' sudden softening left Karochi at a loss, and he became cautious. "No, no! Tights, you were out to collect material anyway, and you were the one providing the meals back on Earth! We agreed on this before we left; there's no right or wrong here."

Seeing Karochi frantically explaining, Tights burst into laughter, shaking off her gloomy mood. "Alright, you don't need to comfort me! But you're likely going to have a tough fight later, so make sure you have the Senzu Bean ready."

The amazing efficacy of the Senzu Bean was something Karochi had discovered when he accidentally injured himself severely during 80x gravity training. At that time, almost every bone in his body had been broken! By all accounts, he should have been crippled, but a single Senzu Bean had him completely healed.

This made Tights realize the importance of the Senzu Bean. No wonder Karochi had been so eager to get them from Korin; they were truly treasures!

"Don't worry, Tights! I know what I'm doing." Tights' concern warmed Karochi's heart; it felt nice, as if he really had a sister! Though, technically, his mental age was higher, right? Ah, his inner maiden heart!

Karochi chose to observe the pair consisting of Guldo and Recoome. The two were currently having a blast competing in a killing spree and didn't notice the probe flying down from the sky.

After the probe landed on the ground, the hatch opened automatically! A dozen bee-sized detectors swarmed out, heading toward Guldo and Recoome.

Inside the spaceship, Karochi and Tights were staring at the screen, watching the footage transmitted by the detectors.

"As expected, planet Fidel has been invaded!" Karochi frowned as he looked at the pockmarked ground, and Tights nodded beside him.

"Who are these people? They're so cruel!" Tights said indignantly, feeling more horrified the closer they got to the residential area.

The ground was littered with severed limbs, and the corpses of the Fidelian were everywhere! The houses in the residential area were in ruins, fires were breaking out, and towering buildings had been snapped in half; there wasn't a single place left intact.

Finally, the figures of Guldo and Recoome appeared on the screen.

"I can't believe it's really them!!!" Karochi couldn't understand it. It was just a low-level planet; sending Zarbon or Dodoria would have been enough!

What, are you not used to it if there's no one around to flatter you? Was it really necessary to dispatch the Ginyu Force?

"How cruel!" Tights covered her mouth, trembling as she watched the killing competition between Guldo and Recoome. What kind of brutality, what kind of ferocity was this, to take pleasure in murder?

"They are just a bunch of animals; don't look at them through the lens of Earth's morality! Besides, in this universe, this is the norm!" Karochi's expression was incredibly serious, his voice becoming deep and heavy.

"Don't they have any humanity at all?" Tights was deeply puzzled.

Humanity? Karochi scoffed. That's something that doesn't even necessarily exist on Earth! In his past life... never mind, not worth mentioning. If he could go back to his original world, he would have wiped out the Sakura Peninsula!

"Survival of the fittest, the law of the cosmic jungle!" No matter which world it was, as long as there were people, as long as there were intelligent beings, it would be like this! Survival of the fittest was the only unchanging rule since ancient times.

Even on peaceful planets, it was still the same; there was no life form without desires! Even the widely-accepted Namekian had birthed an evil existence like Slug, hadn't they?

"Little Qi, do you know them? Is there any hope of winning?" Now was really not the time to sympathize with others; they were like clay bodhisattvas crossing a river, barely able to save themselves! If Karochi wasn't confident, they would truly have to start their "wandering the universe" mode.

"They are Frieza's subordinates, his elite unit known as the Ginyu Force! There are five members in total, and it looks like they're all here! Every member of this squad has a combat power of over 10,000, and their captain, Ginyu, should have a power level of over 100,000." Karochi explained, word by word.

"Then aren't we finished?" Karochi's combat power was only a little over 90,000; how could he possibly beat that Ginyu guy? "How about we keep going? Maybe we'll get lucky and find a planet that hasn't been recorded yet!"

She wouldn't let Karochi go to his death; these people didn't show the slightest mercy when they killed!

"Uh, rely on luck? Wouldn't that be 'GG'?" Karochi gave a bitter smile. With their current fuel, they could only fly for ten days or so! Although they could keep flying in space with a single push, the ship also had to overcome the gravitational pull of numerous planets, otherwise, they might get captured by a star, and they wouldn't even have ashes left.

"Don't worry, Tights! Although my base combat power is only 90,000, I can reach over 100,000 when I power up! And the only ones in the Ginyu Force we need to watch out for are that four-eyed green-skinned Guldo and their captain, Ginyu! Our chances of winning are actually quite high." Karochi felt a bit excited; it wasn't that he was happy, but rather his combative genes were acting up.

Especially when encountering enemies of similar strength, his hands were itching for a fight.

"Hmm? This short guy named Guldo is also very strong?" Tights was surprised; she thought only Ginyu needed special attention.

Tights then tapped the power level scouter she was wearing on her face. She watched the numbers for Guldo jump around before finally stopping at 10,580, while Recoome's combat power reached 43,720! (Let's not argue about this, everyone; I know this detector can't measure combat power through a screen! But this is just to avoid padding the word count! Please understand; if it feels too awkward, just assume Dr. Brief modified it.)

"This isn't strong at all! The pineapple-head's combat power is the one that's very high." Tights felt Karochi was being unreliable; one was 10,000 and the other was 40,000, so how could the one with the lower number be more dangerous?

"Uh, Guldo's combat power is indeed quite weak!" After all, in the original story, he couldn't even handle Krillin and Gohan as a child. Even after they had their potential unlocked by the Grand Elder, their power was only around 18,000, and they still sent Guldo scurrying away. "What makes Guldo strong is his psychic ability; he can stop time in a certain area by holding his breath."

Guldo definitely couldn't achieve large-scale time stopping; such an ability was something even Whis couldn't handle, let alone a small fry like him!

Tights looked shocked. "Really? This ugly thing actually has that kind of ability?"
