To Planet Slug

Planet Slug, Brother Gaino, are you planning to go find Slug?

That's right! Didn't I tell you last time? It's only fun to shear wool slowly. I reckon our little fat sheep has grown enough; it's time to start shearing.

Great! I didn't get my fill last time. I hope Slug can bring me more entertainment this time, otherwise, it would be too boring and make Slug look quite incompetent. He is the Demon King of Planet Slug, after all; can he really be a Demon King like this?

Whether he can bring us joy or not, we'll know once we reach the target planet.

Anyway, we are going there to shear wool this time. I'm not just going to shear Slug's wool; I'm going to take his Demon Star as well.

It seems Brother Gaino intends to slaughter this sheep and put it in the pot this time, going for a total extermination.

Actually, Slug should have realized that this day would come for him sooner or later.

Bardock heard Laiya and Gaino talking about shearing wool and immediately became interested. He hurried over to them and asked: My King, what is this "shearing wool" you and Laiya are talking about? Does it have anything to do with our mission this time?

Of course it does. This wool-shearing is just a small interlude; Slug is merely a tool for our amusement this time.

Slug. Hearing this name, Bardock muttered it to himself. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he looked at Gaino and Laiya.

Bardock said: My King, is the Slug you speak of the same Slug who is known alongside Frieza as a galactic emperor?

That's right! That's the one. What's the matter, Bardock? Is there a problem?

My King, you know that Slug and Frieza are both called galactic emperors, which means his combat power is immense—at the very least, it's equal to or even greater than Frieza's!

Frieza flicked his finger and wiped out Planet Vegeta. That scene still flashes before my eyes; the feeling of utter helplessness is still fresh in my memory.

Frieza is already unprecedentedly powerful. Our current strength is far from enough to deal with Frieza, let alone someone even more formidable like Slug.

Laiya saw the worried expression on Bardock's face and said: Bardock, in the past, Frieza was like an insurmountable peak to us Saiyans, but things are different now. As long as one's strength is sufficient, Frieza is nothing to fear.

Hearing Laiya say this, Bardock's expression turned to shock, and he stammered: C-could it be... that the King's strength has already surpassed Frieza?

No, you've got it wrong. It's not that he surpassed Frieza; it's that Frieza is no longer worth mentioning in front of Brother Gaino. Even if I were to transform into a Super Saiyan, I would be no match for Brother Gaino's current combat power.

Super Saiyan? What is a Super Saiyan?

How should I put it? A Super Saiyan is a unique transformation mode exclusive to us Saiyans. Once we reach Planet Slug, I'll transform once, and you'll understand.

At this moment, Broly also walked up to Laiya and said: Sister Laiya, is this Super Saiyan transformation you mentioned something any Saiyan can achieve?

Gaino said: That depends on the person. Only those Saiyans who train desperately and possess both talent and perseverance can transform into a Super Saiyan.

Then can I transform into a Super Saiyan? Broly asked.

You? Of course you can. Not only can you transform into a Super Saiyan, but your Super Saiyan transformation will be even more powerful than that of an average Saiyan.

Really? I'm that strong? Broly said foolishly.

My King, can I transform into a Super Saiyan? Bardock asked.

You can. Your talent and perseverance have already given you the potential to transform into a Super Saiyan.

Bardock said: Good, then during this mission, I will definitely transform into a Super Saiyan. Bardock clenched his fists tightly to show his determination.

At this time, Laika said: My King, we will arrive at Planet Slug in one more day. Do you want to rest, or...

Gaino looked at Broly and Bardock and said: It's up to you. Rest or...? Of course, it's training! Why rest? We must seize the time to train. I'm going to transform into a Super Saiyan! Broly said.

I naturally want to train as well. Since Broly is going to transform into a Super Saiyan, I certainly cannot fall behind, Bardock added.

Good, then let's go train! Laika, open the Gravity Chamber.

Very well, my King.

Laika's fingers flew, and the Gravity Chamber opened.

Gaino and the others walked into the Gravity Chamber.

The Saiyans truly deserve to be called a warrior race; they want to train again so soon, Laika muttered to himself.

A day passed in the blink of an eye during their training, and Gaino and the others finally arrived at Planet Slug.

The door to the Gravity Chamber opened. Bardock and Broly's clothes were tattered, their faces were covered in dirt, and they had blue bruises. In contrast, Gaino and Laiya looked neat, their faces rosy and their spirits high. It seemed Bardock and Broly had been given another beating by Gaino and Laiya.

Broly said: Brother Gaino, Sister Laiya, you two were too ruthless, weren't you?

Look at how I was beaten; if you had hit any harder, I would have been beaten into a pig's head.

Yes, that's right. Bardock expressed his full agreement with Broly's point of view.

That was just a spar. If it had been a real battle, you two would have long since become ghosts under my and Brother Gaino's hands. We were already merciful enough to you.

Sister Laiya, you say that so righteously, but if I weren't unable to beat you, I would have long since...

What? What are you going to do? Laiya's gaze locked directly onto Broly.

Broly instantly felt a chill wash over him.

Nothing, Sister Laiya. How could I dare to do anything to you? Your strength is immense, and you are beautiful. I'm sure you won't hold my unintentional words against me, right?

Laiya said: Although your description of me is not wrong at all, I am a person who likes to hold grudges. You brat, have you gone rebellious? You dare to have opinions about me? Take this!

Broly hurriedly ran out and shouted to Gaino: Brother Gaino, hurry and stop Sister Laiya! She's going to kill her own brother!

Before Broly could finish his sentence, a loud smack was heard.

Ouch! My butt, it hurts!

Ah, ahhh, stop hitting me, Sister Laiya, I know I was wrong. Stop hitting me, if you hit me any more, my butt is going to bloom.

Alright, you two, stop messing around. We've arrived at Planet Slug; it's time to get down to business.

Hearing Gaino speak, Laiya ceased her abuse of Broly.

Hmph, I'll spare you this time.

Laiya released her grip on Broly's arms and moved to Gaino's side.

Gaino handed Broly and Bardock each a small pouch of Senzu Bean and said to them: These are Senzu Bean. If you suffer heavy injuries, as long as you aren't dead, a single Senzu Bean can instantly heal your wounds.

I'm giving each of you a small pouch; keep them safe, these are life-saving treasures. Both of you, hurry up and eat one now; we have work to do next.

Broly and Bardock each ate a Senzu Bean, and the injuries on their bodies recovered to their original state instantly.

Laika, bring the spaceship closer to Planet Slug. I'm going to give them a big gift.
