"Mon, monster!"

On Pegan's spaceship, the crew watched in terror as the readings on the ship's scouter skyrocketed.

Unlike the portable scouters carried by combatants, the one installed on the spaceship was larger and bulkier, but it also possessed a much higher upper limit, capable of accurately measuring a maximum combat power of 1.1 million!

This was the highest combat power value detectable since the invention of the scouter.

Right now, as changes occurred within Lin Chen's body, the combat power reading on the spaceship continued to surge.

700,000...

800,000...

900,000...

1,000,000...

Boom!

Another massive explosion suddenly rocked the ship.

The last surviving crew member, on the verge of death, spoke into the ship's external communicator: "Pe, Lord Pegan! That guy, that guy's combat power has already exceeded 1.1 million!"

"1.1 million?"

Hearing this, not only Pegan but all the aliens outside were stunned into silence.

1.1 million?

In this world, besides the Frost Demon race, could there actually be someone else who possessed such terrifying combat power?

"Hah!"

"Argh!"

A roar drew their dazed gazes.

At this moment, the aura surrounding Lin Chen had turned completely golden. Not only that, but his hair stood on end, and his original black hair had shifted to a purplish-black!

"Hoo!"

Lin Chen let out a long breath; he could feel that he had reached his limit.

Although he hadn't yet transformed into a Super Saiyan, he had entered the stage of a False Super Saiyan.

While this state was not yet a true Super Saiyan, it still possessed power approximating that of one.

System, what is my current combat power? Lin Chen asked in his mind.

Host combat power: 3.9 million

the system replied.

Hm?

Lin Chen was taken aback. He remembered that according to the original work, a Super Saiyan transformation should increase combat power by 50 times.

Even though he was only a False Super Saiyan, logically, he should have at least a 10-fold increase. Why was it not even 7 times?

System, did you calculate that wrong?

The system's calculation is precise and accurate.

Forget it...

Lin Chen temporarily suppressed his doubts.

Now was not the time to investigate the reason.

Because just as he felt puzzled about his lower-than-expected combat power, the group of space pirates in the distance was already scrambling in a panic, trying to flee.

"Too strong!"

"Run! This guy can't be a Saiyan! He's a demon! A demon!"

"I know now, he must be that Saiyan! The one who severely wounded Lord Frieza must be this Saiyan! We actually ran into him!"

At this moment, amidst the constant cries in the sky, a thunderous shout suddenly brought everyone to a halt.

"A bunch of trash, shut up!"

The tall Pegan flew out from the crowd, roaring at everyone with a face full of rage.

"What is there to panic about! Don't you realize, how could a Saiyan possibly possess 1 million combat power?"

"The scouter must be malfunctioning. A mere Saiyan monkey..."

Pegan's words were cut short as his eyes suddenly widened. When he looked down, he saw a hand protruding through his stomach.

Lin Chen's voice echoed eerily in his ear.

"Whether the scouter is malfunctioning or not, you can experience it for yourself."

A flash of light erupted from Lin Chen's palm, and Pegan, who had been impaled by his hand, was instantly blown to smithereens in the blast.

When the smoke cleared, Pegan had vanished from everyone's sight.

A powerhouse with a combat power of 170,000 would, in the past, have been able to come and go as he pleased in any corner of the universe, if not dominate a region entirely.

Yet, before Lin Chen, he could not even withstand a single move.

"Run! Run for your lives!"

"Lord Pegan was wrong, he really does have a combat power of 1,000,000!"

"A Super Saiyan, this Saiyan must be the legendary Super Saiyan!"

Amidst the chorus of terror, no one had the courage to remain on the scene, and all the space pirates scrambled headlong toward their ships.

Even the smoking spacecraft began to turn around, preparing to accelerate and flee.

"Don't even think about escaping."

Lin Chen concentrated all his energy into a single point, his golden aura surging with a roar.

Suddenly, a golden beam of energy erupted from the aura surrounding Lin Chen.

The golden beam, like a comet, tore through the sky and engulfed the space pirates.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The entire sky was plunged into a sea of golden light; the space pirates didn't even have time to scream before they were completely consumed by the golden beam.

Confirming that no one had escaped, Lin Chen smiled, returned to his normal state, and flashed back to Broly's side using Instant Transmission.

"Big Brother Lynx!" Broly pounced toward Lin Chen in excitement.

Lin Chen smiled and patted his head, then looked at Nail and said, "That should count as fulfilling one of my promises, right? Remember to testify for me when you see the Grand Elder in a moment!"

Nail nodded, though he was secretly astonished in his heart.

Back then, when Lin Chen met the Grand Elder, he had exchanged the promise to protect the Namekians three times in the future for the Grand Elder's agreement to unlock his potential and grant him three uses of the Dragon Balls.

At that time, he had thought this man was just boasting.

Even if he relied on the Grand Elder's power to increase his strength, wasn't it just bragging to claim he could protect the Namekians with that little bit of ability?

Yet, he never expected that five years later, this Saiyan's strength would have reached such a level!

Among those space pirates just now, there were several whose strength Nail could clearly feel far exceeded his own.

If Lin Chen hadn't intervened, relying solely on the Namekians' own strength, they would likely have faced a catastrophe.

But the Saiyan before him had solved the problem with ease, saving Namek once...

The Grand Elder's prophecy from back then was indeed correct; this Saiyan had truly become the savior of the Namekians!

Using Lin Chen's Instant Transmission, the three of them quickly arrived near the Grand Elder's residence.

At this moment, several Namekian elders were already seeking help from the Grand Elder regarding the space pirate broadcast they had heard earlier.

The appearance of Lin Chen and his companions caused the voices of these elders to come to an abrupt halt.

"It is fine. The danger has been resolved."

At this time, the elderly Grand Elder spoke, "Those space pirates have already been dealt with by the Saiyan Lynx. If you have nothing else, return to your respective villages and set everyone's minds at ease."

The group of elders looked at the suddenly appearing Lynx and the others, unable to speak.

Finally, someone spoke up, "Ly, Lynx, you have awakened."

Lin Chen had spent a full year training on Namek, visiting almost every Namekian village, so the elders were naturally no strangers to him.

"That's right. The Grand Elder was correct just now; those space pirates have been dealt with by me. Elders, please return home in peace," Lynx said with a smile.

Hearing this, the elders exchanged glances, finally nodding and leaving the area, leaving everything to be handled by the most reliable Grand Elder.
