Grand Elder of Namek

"Read it."

Sorobe looked at the soldier who had burst into his office and spoke.

"On May 26th, the King and King Vegeta led their forces to Planet Cold 6. The King defeated King Cold, but King Cooler suddenly appeared. King Cold and King Cooler joined forces to kill the King. The Saiyan troops also suffered heavy losses, and even Prince Leige was severely wounded. In the end, Leige killed King Cold and King Cooler to avenge the King," the soldier reported.

"The King was killed by the combined forces of King Cold and King Cooler, yet Leige's combat power is inferior to the King's. How could he possibly have killed them?" Sorobe asked the soldier.

"Reporting to the Chief of Staff, this subordinate does not know," the soldier replied.

Could it be that the Saiyans and King Cold conspired to kill the King? Sorobe wondered.

"Chief of Staff, King Vegeta has ordered us to take this opportunity to wipe out the Cooler Force," the soldier said.

"Why should our army listen to King Vegeta's orders? Those Saiyans are nothing more than dogs raised by the King. Send a message to King Vegeta saying that our army has fought several consecutive battles and is in urgent need of rest. If King Vegeta is so eager to destroy the Cooler Force, he can take his Saiyans and do it himself," Sorobe declared.

As the Chief of Staff of the Frieza Force, Sorobe was the one in charge while the King was away. As long as he forbade the Frieza Force from engaging the Cooler Force, no other unit would dare to deploy.

"Understood," the soldier said, before heading off to find the communications officer.

Spaceship, small training room.

"Bang! Bang!"

Leige punched Bardock until he was half-dead, then delivered another blow that left Nappa in the same state.

Leige then placed them into the medical pods; his ship was equipped with two.

"Host, is bullying the weak fun? Why not go to the Combat Space and spar with Super Perfect Cell?" Xiao Bai asked Leige.

"You're mistaken. I'm not bullying them; I'm helping them increase their combat power. I have to keep exploiting the bug where Saiyans grow stronger after recovering from near-fatal injuries. Especially for Bardock—once his combat power reaches one million, he can transform into a Super Saiyan. If Bardock becomes a Super Saiyan, I won't have to worry about the safety of Planet Vegeta after I leave," Leige explained.

"Host, your intentions are truly profound. However, even after this recovery, Bardock's combat power will reach at most 60,000, and Nappa's will only reach 8,100. They are still a long way from one million," Xiao Bai noted.

"Sigh, there's no other way. Becoming a Super Saiyan is just that difficult right now. It's not like decades later, when Super Saiyans are a dime a dozen—especially Pan's great-great-grandson, Son Goku. That guy couldn't even break 1,000 in combat power and yet he could still transform," Leige said.

After speaking, Leige sat on the floor to meditate, waiting for Bardock and Nappa to recover so he could send them back into the medical pods—or rather, let them exploit the bug again.

As soon as Bardock and Nappa recovered, Leige immediately sent them back into the pods.

Five days later, June 2nd, 8:00 AM.

"Finally, we've reached Namek," Leige said, looking at the planet in the distance.

After five days, they had finally arrived. Of course, the only reason they made it in five days was that Leige had exhausted all of his energy stones.

Five minutes later, the spaceship landed smoothly on Namek. As soon as Leige stepped out, he saw a Namekian nearby who seemed to be waiting for them.

"You must be the guests the Grand Elder spoke of. He has been waiting for you for a long time. Follow me," the Namekian said.

"Beep! Beep!"

"Combat power 42,000. What incredible strength," Bardock said after activating his scouter to scan the Namekian.

"Shoo!"

"Boom!"

Leige fired an energy beam from his fingertip, instantly destroying the green scouter Bardock was wearing.

"Great Prince, why did you destroy my scouter?" Bardock asked.

"Nappa, destroy yours as well," Leige commanded.

"Boom."

Nappa didn't say a word; he simply ripped off his scouter and crushed it to pieces.

"Bardock, Nappa, you both know that the scouters we wear have a monitoring function, right?"

Leige said.

"Great Prince, we are both aware that the scouters Frieza gave us have monitoring functions."

Bardock replied.

"From now on, you are only to wear the scouters I provide. Whether it's my father or anyone else, you are forbidden from wearing any scouter they give you. Do you hear me?"

Leige said to Bardock and Nappa.

"Understood."

Bardock and Nappa replied.

"Hey! Are you coming or not?"

The Namekian called out to Leige and his group.

"Coming, coming. Sorry to keep you waiting."

Leige said.

After speaking, Leige led Bardock and Nappa as they followed the Namekian toward the Grand Elder's residence.

One minute later.

"Greetings, travelers from afar."
