"Hehehe, Dabura, you felt it too, didn't you?" Babidi suddenly said with a sinister grin.

Dabura nodded with an evil smile. "Yes, Lord Babidi. There are nine of them in total."

"That's right. Besides the five humans with pure energy, even the Supreme Kai who killed my father has come." A trace of hatred surfaced on Babidi's face as he spoke of the Supreme Kai.

"Hahaha, once we absorb the energy of those five, Buu will surely wake up soon," Dabura said with a laugh.

"Hehe, Dabura, deal with everyone except those five and the Supreme Kai," Babidi said, walking back to the spaceship with his hands behind his back. Then he added, "And don't touch the Supreme Kai for now. Lure them into the spaceship and absorb their energy."

"Lord Babidi, what about me?" Pui Pui, who had just killed Yamu, immediately asked, feeling like he wasn't getting any attention.

Babidi chuckled. "Hehe, Pui Pui, the first level is yours."

"Yes, Lord Babidi." Pui Pui hurried after Babidi, looking excited. Little did he know his time was almost up.

Among the rocky hills.

"Huh? They all went inside. Only Dabura is left," Son Gohan said, puzzled, watching Babidi and Pui Pui return to the spaceship.

Dabura slowly turned around and grinned evilly at Son Goku and the others, who were hidden behind the rocky hills. Then he shot toward them like a rocket.

"Oh no, we've been spotted!" Vegeta cried in alarm.

Dabura seemed to teleport right in front of the group, his open palm aimed at Kibito.

"Boom!"

A blast of energy shot from Dabura's palm and killed the stunned Kibito on the spot, leaving nothing of him behind.

"Shit!" Son Goten glared furiously at Dabura. He'd let his guard down too much. He hadn't expected Dabura to come over so quickly. He hurriedly shouted, "Uncle Krillin, Uncle Piccolo, run!"

"Haaah!"

Piccolo and Krillin, who'd been called out by Son Goten, were a little confused. Then Dabura, the inconsiderate bastard, spat right in their faces. (Damn, that's disgusting!) Under the horrified gazes of Piccolo and Krillin, their bodies slowly turned to stone.

"You'd better go back where you came from. Lord Babidi is beyond your ability to stop!" Dabura laughed arrogantly. After showing off, he hurriedly ran off. Otherwise, his opponent would beat the shit out of him.

"Krillin! Piccolo!" Son Goku hurried to Krillin's side. Just as he was about to smash the stone and free Krillin, the Supreme Kai stopped him.

"You mustn't touch him, Mr. Son Goku." At the Supreme Kai's words, Son Goku stopped without thinking. The Supreme Kai explained, "They're just like stone now. If the stone breaks, they'll die too."

"Is there any way to save them?" Son Goku asked anxiously.

The Supreme Kai hesitated before answering, "If Dabura dies..."

Hearing the Supreme Kai's answer, Son Goku smiled confidently. "I see. It's that simple."

"Huh?" The Supreme Kai was bewildered. What had he just heard? Simple? Damn it, did he think the King of the Demon Realm was a joke?

With that, Son Goku immediately chased after Dabura, and Son Gohan followed close behind. The Supreme Kai hurriedly turned to Vegeta.

"Sorry, waiting isn't my style," Vegeta said with a confident smile, then went after Son Goku.

"Sorry, waiting isn't my style either." The same went for the other two.

Before the Supreme Kai could say anything, Son Goten and Trunks spoke at the same time, then chased after Vegeta, forcing the Supreme Kai to swallow the words he'd been about to say.

"Shit!" The Supreme Kai had no choice. He was surrounded by such a reckless bunch, and he was at his wit's end. All he could do was follow them.

They chased Dabura into the spaceship, but he promptly disappeared. The group looked around in confusion, keeping a wary eye on their surroundings.

Once the Supreme Kai entered, the hatch above them closed.

"Unless we defeat Babidi, there's no way out of here," the Supreme Kai said.

Spaceship, first level: Pui Pui's entrance.

"Come on, which one of you is going to step up?" Pui Pui taunted them. This idiot thought they were a few little mice he could crush without a second thought. He never imagined that Son Goku and the others weren't mice at all, but prehistoric monsters.

At the bottom of the spaceship, in Babidi's control room.

Babidi inserted the things Yamu and Spopovich had brought back into a giant egg. Its energy level instantly filled halfway.

"How could there be so much energy?" Babidi exclaimed. "Did Yamu and Spopovich absorb energy from hundreds of people?"

"I don't know. I didn't ask," Dabura said, shaking his head.

"I should've known better than to kill them first," Babidi said regretfully.

"It's all right, Lord Babidi. Pui Pui just needs to injure those people so Buu can absorb their energy," Dabura reassured him.

Babidi immediately smiled. "That's true. Maybe Pui Pui's already taken care of them."

Babidi and Dabura strolled over to the crystal ball and watched the first level through it. What they saw left them completely stunned.

"Rock, paper, scissors."

"Rock, paper, scissors."

"Rock, paper, scissors."

The four watching were utterly bewildered. What the hell were they doing?
