"No need to send anyone else. The 23rd and 24th Legions have certainly been wiped out by the Frieza Force."

Cooler said this after hearing Neiz's report.

"Frieza truly has a death wish. Last time, Your Majesty spared his life out of brotherly affection, yet not only is he ungrateful, he has gone so far as to annihilate two of our legions. Your Majesty, you must not let brotherly ties hold you back this time."

Neiz said.

"Frieza, you are truly courting death! Pass on my order: command the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 8th, and 10th Legions to depart with me. We shall eradicate Frieza and the Frieza Force!"

Cooler said.

This time, he would make Frieza and the Frieza Force vanish from the North Galaxy entirely.

"Yes."

Neiz said.

After speaking, Neiz went off to notify the commanders of the 6th, 7th, and 8th Legions.

Frieza Planet No. 2, Royal Palace Hall.

"Re-report, Your Majesty! We have just received intelligence that Cooler has mobilized three legions to attack us. Cooler also said... he also said..."

A radio soldier shouted his report before approaching Frieza, who sat upon the throne.

"Said what? Speak. This Seat grants you immunity."

Frieza said.

"Cooler said he intends to wipe out our army, and you as well, Your Majesty."

The radio soldier said.

"Wipe out This Seat? Cooler has quite the ego! We shall see who wipes out whom. Pass the order down: prepare to engage the Cooler Force."

Frieza said.

"Yes."

The radio soldier said.

"Re-report, Your Majesty! The garrisons on Frieza Planet No. 3 and No. 4 report that they have come under attack by the Cooler Force."

Another radio soldier said after entering the hall.

"This Seat is aware. You may both withdraw."

Frieza said.

"Yes."

The two radio soldiers said.

"Sorbet, pass on my order: Ginyu is to lead the 4th and 5th Legions to reinforce Frieza Planet No. 3. This Seat will personally lead the 6th and 7th Legions to reinforce Frieza Planet No. 4."

Frieza said to a blue-skinned individual standing beside him, who stood less than a meter tall.

"Yes."

Sorbet said.

Thirty minutes later.

Ginyu led the 4th and 5th Legions to reinforce Frieza Planet No. 3, while Frieza personally led the 5th and 6th Legions to reinforce Frieza Planet No. 4.

Spaceship, training grounds.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Ginyu and Leige were sparring, though Leige was pretending to be unable to keep up with Ginyu.

"Bang!"

Ginyu sent Leige flying with a single punch.

"Captain Ginyu, you really are formidable."

Leige said.

"Prince Leige, you aren't bad yourself. An ordinary Saiyan might not have been able to last this long against me."

Ginyu said.

"Captain Ginyu, I am of the Saiyan royal bloodline, after all."

Leige said.

"Then let me witness the power of a royal Saiyan today."

Ginyu said.

"Ah—ah, hah!"

Leige began to raise his combat power.

"Beep, beep, beep. Combat power: 18,000. 22,000, 26,000, 30,000! Prince Leige's combat power has actually reached 30,000."

Ginyu said in surprise.

"Bang!"

Leige threw a punch at Ginyu, who was caught off guard and sent flying over ten meters away.

"Prince Leige, you truly live up to the name of the Saiyan royal family. I fear your current combat power has already surpassed King Vegeta."

Ginyu remarked.

"Captain Ginyu, you flatter me. Compared to you, my combat power is nothing. I know you've been holding back this whole time. Use your full strength; we Saiyans only get more excited when facing a powerful opponent."

Leige replied.

"Very well, then let's have a proper, exhilarating fight."

Ginyu said.

"Ah—ah, hah!"

Ginyu erupted with energy, raising his combat power to over thirty thousand. His current maximum combat power was only one hundred thousand.

After swapping bodies with Delei, Ginyu had discovered that he couldn't unleash the full one hundred and fifty thousand combat power; he could only manage fifteen thousand. Gradually, he had been able to push it to twenty thousand, thirty thousand, and sixty thousand. It seemed that, just like his previous body swaps, he hadn't yet fully adapted to this new vessel. Once he did, the combat power he could unleash would only grow stronger, and he believed that before long, he would be able to tap into the full one hundred and fifty thousand.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Leige and Ginyu continued to trade blows.

Five hours later.

"Prince Leige is truly formidable; he has exceeded my expectations."

Ginyu said.

Ginyu had already raised his combat power to over fifty thousand, yet Leige was still able to keep up with him for so long. The growth rate of Saiyan combat power was truly terrifying.

"Captain Ginyu, let's go again."

Leige said.

"Prince Leige, you should go back and rest. We will continue our training tomorrow."

Ginyu replied.

After bidding farewell to Ginyu, Leige returned to his Room 018.

Combat Space.

"Come on, let this system witness the power of the Legendary Super Saiyan."

As soon as Leige returned to his room and entered the Combat Space, Xiao Bai spoke up.

"Hah!"

Leige let out a roar and transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan.

"Take this!"

Xiao Bai threw a punch at Leige.

"Bang!"

Leige met it with a punch of his own, their fists colliding with a heavy thud.

Following that, Leige and Xiao Bai began trading punches and kicks.

"Bang!"

Leige landed a punch on Xiao Bai's face.

"Bang!"

Xiao Bai kicked Leige away in retaliation.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Flame-Impact-Wave!"

Leige fired a Flame Impact Wave at Xiao Bai.

"Kame-hame-ha!"

Xiao Bai fired a Kamehameha back at Leige.

"Boom!"

The two energy waves collided.

"Triple Kaioken!"

Xiao Bai shouted.

Xiao Bai utilized the Triple Kaioken to push Leige's Flame Impact Wave back.

"Bang!"

Leige had just dodged Xiao Bai's Kamehameha when he was struck by a punch that sent him crashing into the ground.

"Not bad, to think you could force me to use the Triple Kaioken. The Legendary Super Saiyan is indeed impressive."

Xiao Bai praised.

"Huff, huff. I didn't expect that you'd be able to repel my full-power Flame Impact Wave just by activating the triple Kaioken."

Leige said, panting heavily.

"Bang!"

Xiao Bai threw a punch at Leige, which Leige hurriedly dodged.

"Boom!"

Leige fired a green energy blast at Xiao Bai.

"Bang!"

Xiao Bai used Instant Transmission to appear right in front of Leige and sent him flying with a punch.

"Was that Instant Transmission you just used?"

Leige asked.

Leige hadn't been able to track Xiao Bai's ki at all; Xiao Bai had simply appeared before him in an instant.

"That was indeed Instant Transmission, and the same kind that Kibito uses," Xiao Bai replied.

"I've been curious for a while now why you know the techniques of Master Roshi and the others. You said you'd tell me once I transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan. I've achieved that form now, so can you tell me?"

Leige asked.

"Because I am a system from Dragon Ball, and a high-level one at that. From the day I bound myself to a host, I already possessed the techniques of the characters from Dragon Ball," Xiao Bai said.

"I see. No wonder you can take on a human form to fight me. So you're a high-level system. Can you teach me the techniques of Kakarot and the others, too?"

Leige asked.

"Once you can land a hit on me, I'll teach you," Xiao Bai said.

"Bang!"

Leige tried to catch Xiao Bai off guard with a sneak attack, but Xiao Bai dodged to the side and sent him flying over a hundred meters away with a single punch.

"I refuse to believe this!"

Leige shouted.

After saying that, Leige launched a continuous barrage of attacks at Xiao Bai, but none of them connected.

Thirty minutes later.

"Did you notice anything?"

Xiao Bai asked, his fist stopping right beside Leige's right cheek.

"Huff, huff. Notice what?"

Leige panted.

"Bang!"

Xiao Bai sent Leige flying with a punch.

"Again. I refuse to believe I can't hit you."

Leige said.

Before he could even take a few steps, Leige collapsed to his knees, gasping for air as his Legendary Super Saiyan form dissipated.

"You've made the same mistake as Frieza in Dragon Ball Super," Xiao Bai said.

"What mistake?"

Leige asked.

"You haven't fully adapted to the Legendary Super Saiyan form yet. You fought me for so long without being fully accustomed to it, so your stamina has been completely exhausted," Xiao Bai explained.

"I'm a Saiyan. Saiyans only get stronger the more they fight," Leige insisted.

"Bang!"

Xiao Bai sent Leige flying over a hundred meters away with a punch.

"You can barely even stand up now. How do you expect to fight me?"

Xiao Bai said as he walked over to Leige's side.

After saying that, Xiao Bai restored Leige's stamina.

"Again."

Leige said.

"That's all for today. Get out."

Xiao Bai said.

As soon as Xiao Bai finished speaking, he kicked Leige straight out of the Combat Space.

March 1st, Spaceship, Training Room.

"Bang!"
