"This little girl is so pretty! Her skin color's a little strange, though. At first glance, I thought she was an Elf!" Tights saw her pointy ears and was reminded of Rielbea.
Karochi stared at her, dumbfounded, looking at her like she was an idiot! Was this really the time to talk about whether she was pretty or an Elf?
Tights frowned at Karochi. His look made her feel insulted again, and she snapped, "Hey, Little Chi, what's with that look?"
"Um, Tights, why don't you use your [Spirit Eye] to take a look?" Calling her a little girl? It was hard to say whether humans had even existed on Earth when she was around.
Tights let Karochi off for the moment, and a gleam of white light appeared in her eyes!
Name: Zangya
Race: Hera Race
Power Level: 2.1 billion
Note: One of the notorious Galactic Warriors from 100,000 years ago. After being turned into an Android, her lifespan became incredibly long!
Galactic Warriors: Entire group
Tights was stunned by what she saw. How could a woman who looked like a little girl be so powerful? And she was at least 100,000 years old?
"She... she... she's got 2.1 billion? And she's 100,000 years old?" Tights even rubbed her eyes and looked again. For a moment, she began to doubt her secret technique.
No way! That little girl was only a bit taller than her sister Bulma. Aside from her ridiculously impressive bust, she really did look like a cute little girl! How could she be so absurdly strong?
She shuddered and gave Karochi a complicated look. "You were fighting near her just now, weren't you?" Tights wondered if Karochi had saved the Galaxy in a past life. How else could he have made it off that planet alive?
Karochi's face was full of relief, too. Thank goodness he'd trusted his [Sixth Sense]. Otherwise, even with [Instant Transmission], he'd have been doomed if she'd set her sights on him! It still took him a whole second to activate [Instant Transmission]—plenty of time for Zangya to twist him into a pretzel.
"Good thing we got out of there fast!" Tights said, still shaken. Thinking about it, she had been the one who wanted to visit that planet in the first place! After Karochi took care of the Armored Squadron, she'd planned to land there.
Bzzzt, bzzzt~!
Suddenly, Zangya on the screen seemed to grow angry when she got no response and crushed the probe in her hand! The screen in the cockpit instantly turned to static.
"Should we try switching to another one?" Karochi asked tentatively. He was still a little shaken, but they'd gotten out alive, hadn't they? And though Zangya was powerful, she didn't have an ability like [Instant Transmission]!
Sure, she could survive in outer space, but Karochi and Tights were already far from the planet Akasque! They were moving at high speed, too. There was no reason to be afraid. It wasn't like she could hit them.
Tights nodded and switched to the feeds from the other probes. But the screens showed billowing clouds of smoke, with flashes of explosions in the distance.
"Uh... did she go berserk?" Karochi was baffled. Surely she wasn't that angry just because of one little probe! At this rate, she'd destroy the entire planet.
But Zangya hadn't completely lost her mind. She was simply destroying things. She was furious because she couldn't remember her name or her past.
This went on for a full day. Everything within the probes' range had been reduced to ruins, with no sign of life. Karochi was sure that if they returned to the space around Akasque now, they wouldn't see the lush, green planet it had once been. It would look like a barren wasteland.
Still, he had to admit that if this were made into a live-action series or an anime, the effects would be explosive. The budget would be going up in flames!
"Phew! Huh, she's finished letting off steam?" Tights had already slept through the night. Of the fifty probes they'd sent out, only one was still working! The rest had been caught in the destruction and blown to pieces.
Karochi had stayed there all night. To be fair, he didn't know what Zangya had done. In the movie, she'd only fought the Z Fighters!
In the end, she'd even been tragically used by Bojack as a human bomb in an attempt to attack Son Gohan after he became a Super Saiyan 2!
"Yeah, the planet Akasque is basically done for!" Karochi said with a sigh. And that was with Zangya barely even trying.
Tights glanced at the scene on the screen. "That's terrifying. I didn't think a pretty little girl could be so brutal!"
Brutal? That was nothing!
Meanwhile, Cooler's spaceship was nearing the planet Akasque. His face was calm, but his tail kept smacking against the floor of the ship, betraying the fact that he was not as composed as he looked.
That was only natural. The Mental Power Fruit could produce tens of thousands of fruits when planted on a living planet! Even if each one provided only a modest increase in strength, enough of them could bring about a qualitative change—not to mention their anti-aging effects.
Though the Frieza Race lived a long time, they were not immortal! Just look at how far Frieza had gone in the original story to get his hands on the Dragon Balls on Namek and achieve eternal life.
"How much longer?" Even though the planet was right in front of him, Cooler still asked. He didn't want to wait.
The alien piloting the ship immediately replied, "Reporting, my lord. We'll arrive in five minutes..."
"One minute!" Cooler cut him off before he could finish. He wasn't willing to wait even one more minute.
"But, my lord, the ship may not be able to withstand—" The alien faltered, but the moment he met Cooler's icy gaze, he trembled all over. "Y-yes, Lord Cooler! The ship will arrive in one minute."
He could tell that if he'd said one more word, he would have lost his head! No, perhaps he wouldn't even have been left with scraps.
Whirrr~!
The ship accelerated again. Its entire hull groaned as if it were about to fall apart! Alarms blared throughout the cabin, but Cooler didn't care in the slightest.
"M-My lord! We've reached Akasque, but..." One of the aliens on observation duty stared at the planet in shock.
It looked nothing like the image in their records. The lush, vibrant world that should have been there now resembled a desert.
Seeing this only confirmed for Cooler that the Tree of Might was on this planet. The scene matched the information he'd received from that trading company exactly.
"Faster," Cooler ordered coldly. The aliens around him could only grit their teeth and accelerate again.
On the planet Akasque, Zangya—who had finally calmed down—looked up at the sky, as if she'd already sensed Cooler's spaceship.
"Someone's here! I can ask them for information." Her lips curled into a cunning smile. She wasn't worried about how strong her opponent might be.
Cooler's spaceship entered Akasque's atmosphere. Its hull was completely scorched and corroded, and it could fall apart at any moment.
With a sudden leap, Cooler sprang from his seat and shot out of the ship just as it broke apart. It wasn't that he was afraid of getting hurt in the explosion; he just didn't want to choke on the smoke.
The aliens aboard the ship watched in despair as it disintegrated. They were too weak to withstand the atmospheric pressure, and were crushed into meat patties along with the ship.
Cooler didn't even spare them a glance. Once inside Akasque's atmosphere, he began searching everywhere for the Tree of Might. According to the information from the trading company he'd wiped out, the tree should have been enormous. But he looked around and couldn't find it anywhere.
"Damn it, did someone get here first?" Cooler was furious, but he had no intention of destroying the planet just yet. He still held out a glimmer of hope.
"Hey, Little Chi, look! There's an alien on the screen." Cooler had appeared right where one of the probes could see him.
Huh? An alien?! Karochi turned to look, then froze. His hand trembled as he pointed at Cooler. "Cooler? What's he doing here?"
Damn! Frieza and Cooler were quite the pair. One kept looking for trouble and practically begging to die, while the other had come right to their doorstep!
"Huh? That's Cooler? But he doesn't look anything like the picture you drew for me!" Tights was stunned. Wasn't Cooler that powerful Frost Demon Karochi had told her about recently? But he didn't look anything like the picture he'd drawn!
Karochi awkwardly scratched his head. He was dying laughing—Tights had actually managed to recognize a living thing in his drawing!
Tights shot him a disdainful look and activated [Spirit Eye].
Name: Cooler
Race: Frost Demon
Power Level: Base form: 150 million (4th form: 470 million)
Note: The Frieza Race is the root of chaos in the universe. They are cruel and bloodthirsty. If you encounter one, flee at once.
"Oh, it really is him! And his power level is just like you said. But why? He should be so easy to draw, yet you couldn't even draw a person!" Tights looked at Karochi with contempt. He was made of such simple lines!
"Uh, well, I'm just not talented that way! Anyway, Tights, look—tch, it seems poor Cooler is going to meet his end on the planet Akasque!" What was that called? A professional at digging his own grave, even when he was just trying to die.
Zangya was a little surprised to see Cooler. "Oh? A Frost Demon. You crawling insects still haven't all died out?" Her voice was full of loathing. She didn't know why she felt that way or why she'd said it, but the words had just slipped out.
"Bastard! What did you say?" Cooler had only just noticed Zangya. At first, he'd planned to ask her about the Tree of Might and then kill her.
Now, he wanted to make her wish she were dead. How dare she call him an insect?
"Heh. I've killed at least eight hundred Frost Demons, if not a thousand!" Zangya had tried to say her own name, but she couldn't remember it. It was annoying.
Cooler was even more furious. Not only had he failed to find the Tree of Might, but now some clueless woman was insulting and provoking him.
Cooler unleashed a terrifying power. Before it, Zangya seemed no different from an ordinary girl!
After all, as an Android, Zangya couldn't be sensed by her ki.
"This king will make you wish you were dead!"
