"A Saiyan?! Such powerful ki. If this is a Saiyan, Vegeta, this person's strength far exceeds anything we could have imagined."

Son Goku looked at Vegeta as he spoke. He was incredibly sensitive to levels of ki, yet as a battle-hungry warrior, his face revealed an expression of excitement.

To him, the existence of another Saiyan was a cause for great joy.

One had to remember that ever since the Saiyans were wiped out by Frieza, the number of pure-blooded Saiyans remaining could be counted on one's fingers.

Even including half-breeds like Son Gohan, their numbers were few.

"Impossible... this is impossible."

Vegeta muttered to himself. He paid no heed to Son Goku's words; instead, abandoning the fight against Son Goku mid-mutter, he reverted to his base form and immediately flew toward the island where Master Roshi resided.

That was precisely where the Saiyan ki had erupted.

"Vegeta, that guy... he's always so impatient. I wonder when he'll ever change that."

Son Goku chuckled. Instead of using Instant Transmission, he flashed forward, chasing after Vegeta.

"Vegeta, grab onto me!"

Son Goku grabbed Vegeta, raised his right hand, and placed two fingers against his forehead.

"Kakarot, you—"

Disgust appeared on Vegeta's face, but before he could finish his sentence, he vanished instantly under Son Goku's Instant Transmission.

"What happened?"

Son Goku appeared before the group with Vegeta in tow.

The moment they arrived, Vegeta immediately shook off Son Goku, his gaze scanning the surroundings with gravity.

Son Goku looked toward Son Gohan, his eyes locked onto the whirlpool in the sea. He could sense a figure approaching rapidly from within the vortex.

The speed was so great that even he could not match it!

"Dad!"

Son Gohan glanced at Son Goku, then shook his head a moment later. This time, he truly had no idea what was happening.

"I don't know either, but I can feel it—this ki is incredibly powerful. It's even stronger than Majin Buu's!"

Son Gohan looked at the solemn Son Goku; he rarely saw his father like this.

"It certainly seems that way."

Son Goku nodded, fully agreeing with that assessment. After all, when facing Majin Buu, Son Goku had not felt entirely without a chance of victory.

But now, facing this ki, even Son Goku himself did not have the slightest certainty of a hundred-percent victory!

Never mind fighting; the mere presence of the opponent's ki was enough to make Son Goku grave, not daring to be the least bit careless or underestimate his foe.

"He's here!" Son Goku suddenly spoke.

The moment his words fell, a figure suddenly surged out from the whirlpool, carrying an astonishing spray of waves.

Son Goku quickly expanded his ki, shielding the others from the impact.

"Whoosh!"

The moment the sound of breaking air rang out, Soya, dressed in black, had already shot out from the vortex. He stood between heaven and earth, his gaze calm as he surveyed his surroundings.

Naturally, he saw Son Goku, Vegeta, and Master Roshi on the island.

However, even though they stood there, Soya did not care in the slightest, choosing to ignore them entirely.

"Who are you? How did you appear in the sea?"

Son Goku looked at Soya in the air and spoke slowly, his expression heavy.

The truth was, even though the man stood perfectly still, the ki he radiated was enough to suppress them all.

In all his years, he had never seen such a terrifying individual.

"Son Goku?!" Soya glanced at Son Goku, then chose to look elsewhere.

"So handsome!"

Bulma took one look at Soya and was instantly smitten. Even though she was married to Vegeta, she couldn't help but swoon upon seeing someone as handsome as Soya.

After all, what was wrong with liking a handsome man?

"Who are you! The Saiyans are supposed to be extinct! Aside from me and Kakarot, there shouldn't be any other pure-blooded Saiyans left!

And you appeared from the sea, of all places!"

Vegeta looked at Soya and spoke. Like Son Goku, he too sensed the terror of the man before him.

Damn it all. First it was Buu, and now another Saiyan has suddenly popped up.

Every single one of them is stronger than me!

"Hi! Nice to meet you all, my name is Soya!"

Knowing Vegeta's personality well, Soya chose to ignore his words entirely, instead offering a faint smile to the people on the island.

In truth, the moment Soya saw Son Gohan and Son Goten, he had already guessed that the current timeline couldn't be too early; at the very least, it should be around the Majin Buu era.

Furthermore, seeing that Son Goku had already been resurrected, it stood to reason that Majin Buu had likely already been defeated during this period.

"Soya?"

Son Goku murmured the name. In his memories, he had never heard it before, so he felt a bit puzzled.

"Soya, you look very strong. Among all the opponents I have encountered before, I fear not a single one of them is your match."

Son Goku stared at Soya with burning eyes. Soya's power did not intimidate him; instead, it only ignited more fighting spirit within his gaze.

"I'm nothing special. Your strength is also quite impressive; being able to defeat Majin Buu is something that truly surprised me as well," Soya said with a smile, showing his goodwill.

He had no intention of acting recklessly just because of his own strength. Being a newcomer, it was better to abide by the rules here.

"Soya, we're planning to hold a party on the sea. Since you've appeared, why not join us? We're all Saiyans anyway, so don't be a stranger," Son Goku said with great enthusiasm.

"I won't be going. Maybe next time."

Soya declined Son Goku's invitation. He knew that after Majin Buu came Beerus.

And at this point in time, the God of Destruction Beerus would likely be appearing soon.

Therefore, he didn't have much time to attend this party.

Although his current strength could be considered quite formidable—at the very least, surpassing the likes of Son GokuSoya was still very clear that when facing the God of Destruction Beerus, his strength was still not enough to be considered a threat; there was a massive gap.

At the very least, he couldn't even perceive the aura of a god.

So, the most important thing right now was to strive to improve his own strength.

To make himself even stronger after training.

At the very least, he needed to possess the ability to perceive the aura of a god before Beerus arrived, as well as the most basic ability to survive in the vacuum of space.

These two points were fundamental; otherwise, he would be extremely passive once the God of Destruction arrived.

However, it seemed that Vegeta and Son Goku had no intention of letting Soya leave so easily.

Before Soya could even turn to depart, Son Goku's voice came from behind him once again.
