"Ding! A crisis has been detected on Planet Vegeta. The Ultimate Choice has been triggered!"
"Choice One: Ignore the crisis on Planet Vegeta and seize all the Tree of Might fruit. Reward: the Spirit Bomb technique."
"Choice Two: Intimidate the Turles Force, recruit all its members, and seize all the Tree of Might fruit. Reward: the Kaioken technique."
"Choice Three: Kill every member of the Turles Force and destroy the Tree of Might. Rewards: ten Tree of Might fruit and a 50x Gravity Chamber."
Seeing the choices the system had suddenly presented, Lin Chen didn't hesitate. He made his choice at once.
"I choose three!"
Planet Vegeta would be Lin Chen's base in the future. He had spent one of Porunga's wishes to move Planet Vegeta here. How could he stand by and watch it get drained dry by the Tree of Might?
As for the rewards, techniques like those were things he could learn directly from King Kai whenever he had the time.
The 50x Gravity Chamber, on the other hand, was far more appealing to Lin Chen.
As for the Tree of Might fruit, the ten fruit offered by Choice Three weren't many, but they should be enough.
Besides, judging by the story, Turles and his men should have the Tree of Might's seeds. If Lin Chen could get them, he could simply plant them on another planet. Why sacrifice his own Planet Vegeta?
"Ding! The host's choice has been confirmed. Please complete the mission as soon as possible."
Lin Chen withdrew his consciousness and looked at the Saiyan woman. "Don't worry. I'll go take care of those people right now."
The Saiyan woman's face lit up. She bowed her head. "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Mm."
Lin Chen nodded and rose into the sky. Just as he was about to leave, he glanced down and smiled at the Saiyan woman. "By the way, what's your name?"
"Hanasia... Your Majesty, you can call me Hannah, too..." Hanasia said, her cheeks flushed.
Lin Chen nodded and said nothing more. He flew into the sky with Broly, and the two of them left the cave.
As soon as they were gone, the other Saiyan women rushed over to Hanasia. "Hannah! Congratulations! Does King Lynx have his eye on you?"
"Hannah, you're amazing! If I'd known, I would've gone out and talked to His Majesty, too."
As the Saiyan women laughed, Vegeta clenched his teeth. "Damn it... Raditz, let's go take a look, too!"
"Huh? But it's dangerous out there..."
"If you're scared, stay here. I'm going to see that Lynx's strength with my own eyes!"
Vegeta ground his teeth, his face filled with resentment.
Just one child at Lynx's side had seemed unfathomably powerful. So just how strong was Lynx himself?
He couldn't accept it. As the Saiyan prince, he was supposed to be the strongest Saiyan. But now two people had suddenly appeared who were far stronger than him. How could he possibly accept that?
I'll see their strength with my own eyes. Then, one day, I'll surpass them and take back the throne for my father!
At the same time, in Planet Vegeta's Saiyan Royal Capital,
the city's former glory was long gone.
The entire Saiyan Royal Capital had been destroyed by a gigantic tree.
Where the capital had once stood, all that could be seen now was a towering trunk. Higher up, layer upon layer of clouds swirled around it.
This enormous tree was the legendary divine tree, the Tree of Might.
At the edge of the Tree of Might, a group of Saiyans glared at the towering tree, their teeth clenched.
"Bardock, you said you saw King Lynx coming to save Planet Vegeta, but why hasn't he shown up yet? The Tree of Might fruit should be almost ripe by now, shouldn't it?"
Among the group, King Vegeta stared furiously at the giant tree that had destroyed his palace, a bandage wrapped around his forehead.
If not for Bardock, he would have already ordered everyone to attack.
But before the assault, Bardock—one of the aides Lin Chen had personally appointed to King Vegeta—had told him that he'd seen Lynx appear.
Bardock had the ability to foresee the future, something King Vegeta already knew. It was Bardock's warning that had kept him from acting rashly.
But as time went by, his patience wore thinner and thinner.
"King Vegeta, please be patient a little longer. Turles's people are too strong. Even if we fight with everything we have, it may not do any good without King Lynx's help."
Beside Vegeta and Bardock stood another Saiyan, Paragus.
He, too, had been personally appointed by Lin Chen as King Vegeta's chief strategist. With the two of them advising him, King Vegeta had no choice but to wait.
Just then, the Scouters worn by the Saiyans began beeping.
At the same time, laughter rang out above their heads.
"Hahahaha! Isn't that King Vegeta? Have you finally come around and decided to submit to Lord Turles?"
King Vegeta and the others looked up in alarm.
A group of Saiyans hovered overhead, surrounding several people.
Those Saiyans were the traitors who had betrayed King Vegeta and joined Turles. The six people they surrounded were the five core members of the Turles Force and the evil Saiyan, Turles!
When he saw that they'd been discovered, cold sweat broke out on King Vegeta's face. Bardock clenched his teeth, glaring fiercely at the Saiyan who intended to destroy his home.
What made the whole thing even more ironic to Bardock was that this Saiyan looked just like him.
Turles looked almost exactly like Bardock, except that his skin was much darker.
"Turles! Get off Planet Vegeta at once! The true king of the Saiyans will be back soon! When he returns, you and every one of your men will die without a burial place!" King Vegeta shouted.
"Oh?" Turles's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile. "You mean that guy called Lynx? I've heard about him. A mere 100,000 in battle power, and he thinks he's fit to be king?"
Beside Turles, a Saiyan with only a small tuft of hair on his head chimed in. "Exactly! King Vegeta, open your eyes and look! The true king of the Saiyans is Lord Turles! His battle power is already as high as 300,000!"
"Nappa! When did you become like this? Where's the pride of a Saiyan elite?" King Vegeta snapped when he saw him.
The man's name was Nappa. He had once been one of King Vegeta's personal guards and a Saiyan noble, but as soon as Turles invaded, he had groveled before him.
With Nappa leading the way, many Saiyans had chosen to betray their king.
"Pride? You have no right to say that! Where was your pride when you groveled before Lynx, King Vegeta?"
Nappa turned and smiled ingratiatingly at Turles. "Lord Turles, allow me to deal with these disobedient fools!"
"Go ahead!"
Turles's lips curled into a smile he couldn't suppress.
