Off to Earth

"Snap!"

Once the spaceship's hatch opened, Vegeta stepped inside.

"Launch!"

With a roar, the spaceship shot into the vast universe, leaving a long trail through space.

Earth, here I come!

Vegeta shouted inwardly.

Let those who think I'm going to Natel Planet tear their hair out.

Meanwhile, Zarbon, who was speaking with King Vegeta in the palace, suddenly looked grim.

"King Vegeta, what is the meaning of this?" Zarbon stared coldly at King Vegeta across from him, his expression dark.

"What?" King Vegeta asked, puzzled.

"I just received word from outer space. Someone left Planet Vegeta three minutes ago, and it appears to have been the young prince's spaceship," Zarbon said coldly. "King Vegeta, you've gone back on your word!"

King Vegeta sprang to his feet and ordered a guard, "Contact the young prince immediately and find out where he's gone!"

"Your timing is impeccable, King Vegeta. You deliberately kept me here arguing while secretly sending your young prince away." Zarbon's expression grew even colder, his voice menacing. "You'd better give me a satisfactory answer. Lord Frieza ordered me to bring the young prince back personally."

"Zarbon, I, King Vegeta, have always kept my word! I believe you may have misunderstood." King Vegeta's voice turned cold, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Fine. Very well! King Vegeta, you will answer for those words!" Zarbon's aura abruptly surged severalfold, and his voice rose sharply.

Apparently sensing that something was wrong, a swarm of Saiyan guards rushed in and surrounded Zarbon in an instant.

"King Vegeta, are you trying to rebel?" Zarbon barked.

A fierce gleam flashed through King Vegeta's eyes, followed by a barely perceptible flicker of fear. He ordered loudly, "All of you, stand down!"

Just then, a guard came forward to report, "King Vegeta, before the young prince left, he said he was going to Natel Planet in the Milky Way."

King Vegeta shouted, "Nappa! Nappa!"

Nappa hurried over and dropped to his knees.

"Didn't I tell you to go and bring the young prince here?" King Vegeta demanded, his expression icy.

"The young prince wouldn't listen to me... I... there was nothing I could do," Nappa said, trembling.

King Vegeta lashed out with a kick, knocking Nappa to the floor, and roared, "Useless trash!"

Just then, an alien with an unusual appearance hurried inside and bowed to Zarbon. "Mr. Zarbon, Vegeta severely injured Cui. He nearly died."

"When did this happen?" Zarbon asked with a frown.

"Half an hour ago," the subordinate replied.

"Why didn't you report it to me earlier?" Zarbon's expression turned terrifyingly dark.

"Earlier... I was busy getting Mr. Cui treated... so... uh..." The subordinate had barely reached those words when his entire body suddenly burst apart, sending flesh and blood flying.

Everyone present went on high alert at the sight.

King Vegeta also raised his power level, afraid that he might meet with an unexpected attack.

"Useless fool!" After killing his subordinate in an instant, Zarbon flew out of the palace with a dark expression, muttering coldly to himself, "Hmph, Natel Planet, is it? You think you can run? It won't be that easy!"

After Zarbon left, King Vegeta personally helped Nappa up and praised him lavishly. "Nappa, you did well. Quick thinking!"

Nappa stared at King Vegeta, dumbfounded and utterly bewildered.
