"Not Frieza? Who's that kid?"
Zoro watched Leige as he powered up.
He had just detected a powerful energy level with his AI, so he flew back to the place where he had just fought Frieza.
"Beep beep. Power level: five million, six million, seven million, ten million, thirty million, one hundred million, three hundred million, five hundred million, eight hundred million. What?! His power level is still rising! Die!"
Zoro shouted.
After shouting, Zoro fired dozens of energy blasts toward Leige.
When the smoke cleared, Leige was completely unharmed. His hair and pupils had turned green, and green flames of energy surrounded his body. Even the colors of the surrounding landscape kept changing. Leige had become a Legendary Super Saiyan.
"Xiao Bai, check my power level."
Leige glanced at Zoro and ignored him, then asked Xiao Bai in his mind.
Host: Leige.
Base Power Level: 4,800,000
Form: Legendary Super Saiyan 1
Legendary Super Saiyan 1, First Stage Power Level: 2,500,000,000
Xiao Bai replied.
"I didn't expect the Legendary Super Saiyan's power multiplier to be over five hundred times."
Leige said.
"Beep beep... Boom!"
Zoro tried to use his AI to measure Leige's power level, but the AI exploded.
"Die! Sha-dow Star-De-stroy-ing Can-non!"
Zoro roared.
He had defeated Frieza and was now the strongest person around, apart from Cooler. He wouldn't allow anyone to be stronger than him—except Cooler.
"You're the one who should die."
Leige said.
"Pfft!"
Leige suddenly appeared behind Zoro. Before Zoro could fire his Shadow Star-Destroying Cannon, Leige punched straight through his Shadow Armor and his body.
"Boom!"
A wave of green energy shot from Leige's hand and reduced Zoro to dust.
"Boom! Boom!"
After killing Zoro, Leige went over to Tagoma and Shisami and blasted them into dust, too. Zarbon and Cui were already dead, and now he had killed Tagoma and Shisami. Frieza had few capable people left at his side. Leige also knew that Tagoma and Shisami had been sent by Frieza to watch him, so he had to find a chance to get rid of them. Then he returned to his normal form, lay on the ground, and pretended to be unconscious.
Twenty minutes later.
"Prince Leige, wake up."
Hearing Ginyu call him, Leige pretended he had only just woken up.
"Captain Ginyu, are we still alive?"
Leige asked.
"Yes, we're still alive."
Ginyu replied.
"What about Father?"
Leige asked.
"His Majesty is probably badly injured. He still hasn't woken up."
Ginyu replied.
"Let's take Father back to the spaceship so he can be treated. What about Tagoma and Shisami?"
Leige said.
"I didn't see them when I woke up."
Ginyu replied.
"Let's head back to the spaceship first, then send people to look for them."
Leige said.
After Leige spoke, Ginyu carried Frieza on his back and flew with Leige back to the spaceship.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Rumble! Rumble!"
Frieza Force soldiers were still fighting the Space Pirates.
"Commander Gele, the enemy's firepower is fierce. Our forces have attacked more than ten times, but we still haven't taken their command center."
A soldier came up to a red-skinned man with a single horn and reported.
"We'll pull back for now. Tell Commander Moxi of the Fifth Legion to keep attacking. Don't give the enemy a chance to catch their breath."
Gele said.
"Yes, sir."
The soldier replied.
Spaceship.
"Lord Ginyu, Prince Leige, what happened to you? And what happened to His Majesty?"
A soldier asked, seeing Ginyu and Leige with their Battle Suits damaged.
"Get us to the medical bay, quickly! Also, send people to look for Tagoma and Shisami."
Ginyu shouted to the soldier.
"Yes! Get Lord Ginyu, Prince Leige, and His Majesty to the medical bay!"
The soldier shouted to the soldiers nearby.
The soldiers helped Ginyu and the others to the medical bay.
Thirty minutes later.
Ginyu and Leige had recovered, but Frieza was still being treated because his injuries were too severe.
"Have you found Tagoma and Shisami?"
Ginyu asked a soldier beside him after changing into a new Battle Suit and putting his Scouter back on.
"Reporting, sir. We've searched almost all of Longji Planet, all the way to the area where the Cooler Force is stationed, but we haven't found Lord Tagoma or Lord Shisami."
The soldier replied.
"Keep looking. I want them found, dead or alive."
Ginyu said.
Too bad you won't find them. They've already been reduced to dust.
Leige thought.
"R-Reporting to Lord Ginyu! The Space Pirates are putting up a fierce resistance. All three of our legions have taken turns attacking, but we still haven't captured their command center."
Three commanders came before Ginyu and reported.
"Useless! I'll go wipe them out myself. Prince Leige, come with me and help me destroy those Space Pirates."
Ginyu said to Leige.
"Sure."
Leige readily agreed.
Then Ginyu and Leige headed for the Space Pirates' command center.
Twenty minutes later.
"Where am I? Could I already be dead? Impossible! I could never die at the hands of insects."
Frieza looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and spoke.
"Is that Leige?"
Suddenly, Frieza noticed a child some distance away, facing away from him. The child's build looked a lot like Leige's.
"Leige, is that you?"
Frieza called to the child.
The child turned around but didn't answer. Suddenly, he let out a shout and transformed, his hair turning golden and his eyes blue-green.
"Leige, what kind of form is that? Saiyans can only transform into Great Apes, can't they?"
Frieza stared at Leige in his new golden-haired, blue-eyed form and asked.
"Behold, I am Leige, the Super Saiyan!"
Leige said, looking at Frieza.
After speaking, Leige powered up and sent Frieza flying hundreds of meters.
"Super Saiyan? Could that Saiyan legend be real? No, impossible! Absolutely impossible! I am the strongest in the universe!"
Frieza roared.
"Thud!"
Leige punched Frieza.
"Ugh!"
Frieza suddenly woke up and realized he was in the medical bay. Everything that had just happened had been nothing but a dream.
"Why did I have a dream like that? Could it be a sign of something? Will Leige really become a Super Saiyan?"
Frieza wondered.
"His Majesty is awake! Drain the healing fluid and open the medical pod!"
A soldier saw that Frieza had woken up and called to the staff operating the medical pod.
When the staff operating the medical pod saw Frieza was awake, they drained the healing fluid and opened the pod.
"Where are Ginyu and Leige?"
Frieza asked the soldier beside him.
"Reporting, Your Majesty. Lord Ginyu and Prince Leige are leading the troops in an attack on the Space Pirates' command center."
A tiger-headed soldier replied.
"Hasn't the Space Pirates' command center been taken yet?"
Frieza asked again.
"Reporting, Your Majesty. The Space Pirates are as strong as our forces, so we haven't been able to break through. Please punish us, Your Majesty."
The tiger-headed soldier replied.
After speaking, he knelt down to accept punishment.
"Please punish us, Your Majesty!"
The soldiers around him, along with the medical pod staff, also knelt to accept punishment.
"Get up. It seems I'll have to step in myself."
Frieza said.
After speaking, Frieza ordered the soldiers to bring him his Sofa Hovercraft. He put on his Scouter, sat in the hovercraft, and flew with the soldiers toward the Space Pirates' command center.
Space Pirates' command center.
"Boom! Charge with me!"
Leige fired an energy blast and destroyed one of the Space Pirates' cannons.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Hundreds of laser blasts rained down on Leige and the others. They barely hurt Leige, but they inflicted heavy damage on the Frieza Force soldiers.
"Boom!"
Leige fired an energy blast from his hand, blasting the Space Pirates carrying laser guns into dust.
"Charge in!"
Ginyu shouted.
After shouting, Ginyu led the soldiers in a charge. The Frieza Force troops finally broke into the Space Pirates' command center.
Command Center Office.
"Fourth-in-Command, the Frieza Force is too strong! We can't hold them back!"
A soldier ran up to Aite and reported.
"Fourth-in-Command, why don't we surrender to the Frieza Force? If this keeps up, our whole army will be wiped out."
An officer beside Aite said.
"Vida, do you think Frieza will spare us if we surrender? I'd rather die fighting here than surrender and be killed by Frieza."
Aite said.
"R-Reporting, Fourth-in-Command! We've received a message from the Cooler Force. They've already set out, and they say they'll reach our command center if we can hold out for just two more hours."
A radio operator ran up to Aite and reported.
"Tell everyone the reinforcements will arrive in two hours. We have to hold out until then. After this battle, everyone will get one tael of gold."
Aite said.
"Yes, sir!"
The soldier replied.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
Ginyu fired an energy blast and destroyed the command center's main door.
"Charge in!"
Ginyu shouted.
After shouting, Ginyu led the soldiers into the command center.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Hidden in the shadows of the command center, the Space Pirates rapidly hurled over a hundred grenades at the Frieza Force soldiers, then ducked behind cover.
"Damn it!"
Ginyu roared angrily.
The grenades thrown by the Space Pirates had killed quite a few Frieza Force soldiers.
"Ginyu, let's pull back and destroy this place directly."
Leige said to Ginyu.
"No. I'm going to take the Space Pirates' headquarters."
Ginyu said.
As the captain of the mighty Ginyu Force, he refused to believe he couldn't take down a mere Space Pirate headquarters.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Ginyu led the soldiers in another charge. An hour later, he successfully captured the Space Pirates' headquarters. Aite was killed in action, and the remaining Space Pirates surrendered to Ginyu.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Ginyu knelt on one knee before Frieza.
"Rise. You fought bravely in this battle. I'll award Ginyu, Leige, Gele, Moxi, and Luka twenty taels of gold each, and every soldier five taels."
Frieza said.
Don't ask why Frieza was always rewarding his subordinates with gold. He had roamed the universe for years before becoming king, and his fortune was beyond anything we could imagine.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ginyu and the others said.
"R-report, Your Majesty! The Cooler Force is less than thirty kilometers away!"
A soldier came up to Frieza and reported.
"Ginyu, I order you to lead the Fourth and Fifth Legions and destroy the Cooler Force."
Frieza said.
"Yes, sir."
Ginyu said.
After replying, Ginyu set off with the soldiers from both legions.
"Reporting to Lord Delei: the Space Pirates sent word that they can't hold off the Frieza Force's attack. Aite has been killed, and the remaining Space Pirates have surrendered to the Frieza Force."
An officer came up to Delei and reported.
"I knew those useless fools couldn't hold off the Frieza Force. Pass down the order: step up the march and catch the Frieza Force off guard."
Delei said.
"Yes, sir."
The officer beside Delei replied.
An hour later.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Rumble!"
The Frieza Force and the Cooler Force clashed in a fierce battle.
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
Ginyu and Delei began fighting, and as the battle went on, they moved farther and farther from the battlefield.
"Thud!"
"I'd heard the captain of the Ginyu Force was strong, but you're nothing special. You're just another weakling!"
Delei said, after finding an opening and punching Ginyu away.
"The Mecha Force under Cooler certainly lives up to its reputation. I wonder what your battle power is, Delei."
Ginyu said.
"Since you're about to die, I'll let you see my full battle power. Get a good look with your Scouter, and don't get scared!"
Delei said.
"Ahhh!"
After speaking, Delei began powering up.
"Beep, beep, beep! One hundred and fifty thousand! What incredible battle power!"
Ginyu said.
"Prepare to die!"
Delei shouted.
After shouting, Delei wrapped himself in energy and charged at Ginyu.
"Squish!"
"B-body Change!"
Ginyu punched through his own chest, then spread his arms and shouted.
As soon as he finished shouting, a beam of yellow light shot from Ginyu's mouth toward Delei's. A matching beam shot from Delei's mouth toward Ginyu's.
"Ginyu, what did you do to me? Why can I see myself?"
Ginyu (Delei) said.
"Captain Ginyu, hang on! I'll take you back to the spaceship for treatment."
Leige came up to Ginyu (Delei), pretending not to know that Ginyu and Delei had switched bodies.
"Prince Leige, I'm Ginyu! He's Delei! Get away from him!"
Ginyu hurriedly warned Leige.
"Thud!"
Delei ignored the pain from his wound and punched Leige away. Of course, Leige had let himself be hit. Given Leige's current battle power, Delei's attack felt like a tickle.
"Prince Leige, I'm Ginyu! Delei and I switched bodies!"
Ginyu shouted to Leige.
"What?!"
Leige and Delei said.
"Ginyu, give me back my body!"
Delei shouted at Ginyu.
"Boom!"
Leige quickly went up to Delei and fired an energy blast from his hand, reducing Delei to dust.
"Why did you kill him?"
Ginyu said.
"To eliminate any future threats. Now I'm the only one who knows you can switch bodies."
Leige said.
Then Leige and Ginyu returned to the battlefield and led the Frieza Force soldiers in slaughtering the Cooler Force.
Under Leige and Ginyu's leadership, the Cooler Force soldiers were wiped out.
An hour later. Outer space.
"To celebrate the Frieza Force's destruction of the Space Pirates in the North Galaxy, I'll set off some fireworks today..."
Frieza said.
After speaking, Frieza raised his index finger, gathered an orange energy sphere, and tossed it toward Longji Planet.
"Boom!"
The energy sphere entered Longji Planet. Before long, the planet became a firework.
February 28, 8:00 a.m. Cooler Planet No. 6, the palace throne room.
"Your Majesty, we haven't been able to contact the Twenty-Third and Twenty-Fourth Legions stationed on Longji Planet since yesterday. We can't reach the Space Pirates on Longji Planet either. This subordinate requests your instructions: should we send someone to investigate?"
Before you continue
