As soon as they entered Frieza Planet No. 3, a child wearing a Battle Suit fired an energy blast at them, destroying several of their battleships.
"Sir, we're under attack."
A soldier spoke to Apocart.
"Prince Leige, is it? Go out and say hello."
Apocart looked at the radar display aboard the spaceship.
After speaking, Apocart ordered the soldiers to open the hatch, then flew toward Leige.
"Prince Leige, long time no see."
Apocart watched Leige attack the Cooler Force's battleships without pause.
In his eyes, the more Cooler Force soldiers Leige killed, the sooner he could take control of the Cooler Force.
"Apocart, why are you with the Cooler Force? Don't tell me you've become a traitor."
Leige looked at Apocart.
"Prince Leige, don't you know what survival of the fittest means? I only follow the strongest."
Apocart said.
"Hahaha, survival of the fittest, is it? Looks like I'll have to clean house for Father today."
Leige said.
"You think you can?"
Apocart said.
After speaking, Apocart used his Scouter to measure Leige's battle power.
"Prince Leige's battle power is already up to fifty thousand. Not bad, not bad. Too bad you're still no match for me."
Apocart said.
"If you've got the guts, follow me."
Leige said.
After speaking, Leige fired another energy wave at the Cooler Force, then quickly flew northeast.
"You're in charge of wiping out the Frieza Force. I'm going after Leige."
Apocart shouted to the Cooler Force members behind him.
After speaking, Apocart took off in pursuit of Leige without waiting for their answer.
"Kill them! Don't leave a single prisoner alive."
Lan Tailang said.
The Cooler Force and Frieza Force then clashed fiercely.
"Leige, you can't escape."
Apocart said.
After speaking, Apocart quickly appeared in front of Leige.
"Apocart, are you really going to kill me?"
Leige asked Apocart.
"I, Apocart, know how to recognize talent. Besides, I just joined the Cooler Force and need someone to help me. If you're willing to follow me, I'll spare you."
Apocart said.
"I, Leige, also like following the strongest. I just wonder how high your battle power is."
Leige asked.
"Leige, listen carefully. My battle power is five hundred million."
Apocart said.
"Wow, that's an incredibly high battle power, Lord Apocart! You're that powerful, so why not go straight after King Cold? His battle power is probably about the same as yours."
Leige said.
"Enough nonsense. Are you going to follow me or not? If you agree, starting today you'll be the deputy commander-in-chief of the Cooler Force. If you refuse, I'll send you to meet Frieza right now!"
Apocart said.
"You want me to follow you? You're not worthy! Catch me first, then we'll talk."
Leige said.
After speaking, Leige continued flying northeast at high speed. He had to draw Apocart farther away before he could use his Legendary Super Saiyan Form to deal with him.
"Leige, I'll tear you to pieces!"
Apocart said.
After speaking, Apocart quickly chased after Leige.
Five minutes later.
After leading Apocart into a valley, Leige stopped.
"Prepare to die."
Apocart said, then threw a punch at Leige.
"Boom!"
Leige transformed into his Legendary Super Saiyan Form and caught Apocart's fist in his right hand.
"Whoosh!"
"Rumble!"
Leige fired an energy beam from his finger, destroying Apocart's Scouter.
"Weren't Saiyans only able to transform into Great Apes? What is this?"
Apocart stared at Leige's green hair.
"Don't you know the legend that's been passed down among us Saiyans? Every thousand years, the strongest Saiyan appears among us—the Super Saiyan."
Leige looked at Apocart.
"Su-super... Super Saiyan!"
Apocart said.
"Want to know my battle power now?"
Leige asked Apocart.
"No! What's so special about a Super Saiyan? I, Apocart, am the strongest in the universe! Die!"
Apocart said.
After speaking, Apocart wrenched his right hand free from Leige's grasp and punched at him.
"Thud!"
Apocart's punch hit Leige in the face, but Leige wasn't hurt at all. He even released Apocart's right hand.
"Thud!"
"Splurt!"
Leige quickly appeared in front of Apocart and punched through his abdomen.
"Prince Leige, please spare my life! I swear I'll follow you to the death."
Apocart said.
"I told you before—you're not worthy!"
Leige said.
Leige then punched Apocart under the chin, sending him hundreds of meters into the sky.
"Boom!"
Then Leige fired an energy blast with his index and middle fingers, blasting Apocart to smithereens.
"Hmph! Filthy fireworks."
Leige said.
After speaking, Leige didn't hurry back. Instead, he flew straight into space. Over the past few days, he had mastered the Oxygen-Free Survival Technique. Now he could survive even in space.
3:00 p.m.
"Commander, the Frieza Force is using urban warfare and guerrilla tactics to bring our advance to a standstill."
