A Powerful Presence

Vegeta frowned, sensing that Ginyu was about to pull some kind of trick.

Sure enough, as Vegeta watched Ginyu, brilliant light began radiating from every part of his body, as though it had enveloped him completely.

"Body Change! Your body is mine! Hahahahaha!" Ginyu laughed wildly, and the blazing light around him swept toward Vegeta.

Vegeta immediately understood. This was Ginyu's outrageously powerful technique, which allowed him to exchange bodies with someone else.

Fortunately, Vegeta's strength was far beyond ordinary now, and he had already noticed something off about Ginyu. As the blazing light hurtled toward him, he became a streak of light and darted eerily aside, toward the statue of King Vegeta standing nearby.

Smack!

The light from Ginyu raced over and struck the statue squarely.

"Ah... no! This isn't how it was supposed to go!"

Ginyu shouted, but after just those few words, he could no longer speak. He stood rooted to the spot, frozen in the pose of a statue.

Meanwhile, the face of the original statue seemed to come alive. Its eyes rolled, but its body could not move an inch.

"Ginyu, you brought this on yourself. From now on, you can serve as the guardian treasure of us Saiyans." Vegeta smiled and patted Ginyu, who had become the statue.

Ginyu's eyes were filled with terror, but he could not say a word.

"There's no point keeping this body around." As Vegeta spoke, a beam of energy shot out, blasting Ginyu's original body to pieces on the spot.

The sight left everyone stunned.

Just like that, the captain of the Ginyu Force had fallen.

By now, Zaron was so terrified that he had no idea what to do. When Vegeta's gaze swept toward him, he trembled even harder.

"Don't worry. It'll be your turn soon." Vegeta gave a faint smile as he looked at Zaron.

"No... don't!" Zaron's face turned ashen with fear. The next moment, he became a streak of light and fled into the distance.

Vegeta snorted coldly and swiftly gave chase.

But just as Vegeta was about to deal Zaron a fatal blow, he suddenly sensed a powerful presence rising in the distance.

Frowning slightly, Vegeta looked toward it.

About ten kilometers away from Vegeta, a spaceship descended from the sky.

The hatch opened, and a small, compact alien stepped out. He had purplish-red skin, two hard, short horns on his head, and a long tail.

The moment Vegeta saw him from afar, he was stunned.

Frieza!

I never expected him to arrive so soon!

Could today be the end of my planet and the Saiyans?

Vegeta admitted that, with his current strength, he was no match for Frieza under any circumstances. His only chance was to become a Super Saiyan.

But to become a Super Saiyan, he needed extreme rage as the trigger.

Yet Vegeta had no urge to get angry at all right now.

What am I supposed to do?
