Turles had imagined the day he would reign over Planet Vegeta countless times, yet he never expected it to arrive so soon.
He had merely been scouring the edge of the universe for a planet suitable for planting the Tree of Might, never dreaming he would stumble upon the long-lost Planet Vegeta by pure chance.
When he first discovered that this planet was indeed the missing Planet Vegeta, Turles had been somewhat panicked.
The news of the Saiyans betraying Frieza and leaving him severely wounded had already spread throughout the universe.
Turles initially worried about encountering the powerhouse who had struck down Frieza, but after secretly investigating, he discovered that the Saiyans had only defeated Frieza through trickery.
The strongest fighter on the entire planet had a combat power of less than 30,000, while Turles himself had already reached 300,000!
And so, Turles's campaign began.
Relying on his overwhelming strength, he not only successfully planted the Tree of Might but also coerced many Saiyans into becoming his servants.
Once a mere low-class warrior, he had now ascended to the pinnacle of the Saiyan race.
This feeling was absolutely magnificent!
"Go, Nappa! But if you can, bring me more recruits. Without enough subjects, my title as King of the Saiyans rings hollow."
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
With Turles's permission, Nappa sneered as he descended before King Vegeta and his group.
"King Vegeta, this is the last time I will give you a chance. Surrender and bow to His Majesty Turles, or die!"
"You think you can make me?" King Vegeta retorted with disdain.
"Of course! Someone like you could never comprehend the greatness of His Majesty Turles!"
"Everyone! Although Lynx led us to defeat Frieza, he also forced us Saiyans into hiding, unable to even step foot off this planet! This life of imprisonment is no way for a Saiyan to live!"
Nappa shouted at the Saiyans before him, "But His Majesty Turles is different! By following him, we can return to the thrilling life we once knew. More importantly, His Majesty Turles possesses the Fruit of the Tree of Might! As long as you follow him, everyone will have the chance to enjoy the fruit!"
"Look! This is the power of the Fruit of the Tree of Might! Hah!"
Nappa let out a roar and unleashed his energy. In an instant, a powerful pressure swept over every Saiyan present like a gale.
Their scouters began to beep incessantly.
"Thirty thousand?" King Vegeta stared in disbelief at Nappa, who had once been his subordinate.
Although Nappa had improved his combat power over the last five years, before the betrayal, he had only possessed a measly 10,000. How could his power have tripled in just a few days?
Could the Fruit of the Tree of Might truly be that miraculous?
Even King Vegeta was wavering, to say nothing of the other Saiyans.
Whether out of fear or longing, it was clear that they were all shaken.
Sensing the trepidation of those around him, King Vegeta gritted his teeth and suddenly lunged forward.
"Bluffing, Nappa! I will show you who the true royalty of the Saiyans is!"
King Vegeta threw a punch, only for Nappa to catch it with ease.
Nappa gave a cold laugh and said, "King Vegeta, shall I remind you? You haven't been the royalty of the Saiyans for a long time!"
With that, he delivered a punch brimming with savage power, striking King Vegeta squarely in the head.
Bang!
Blood sprayed as King Vegeta let out a pained cry, his body sent flying toward the horizon like a high-speed meteor.
But Nappa caught up to the airborne King Vegeta, delivering a downward kick in mid-air that slammed him into the ground.
Boom!
The earth shattered, leaving a deep crater where King Vegeta lay.
Nappa stepped onto King Vegeta's body, unable to suppress his manic laughter.
"Hahaha! Saiyan royalty? King Vegeta, do you see? This is the power bestowed upon me by the true King of the Saiyans!"
"Before him, you are nothing but an ant!"
"Damn you!" King Vegeta struggled to rise, but Nappa stomped down hard, burying his face into the dirt.
"Hmph! A piece of trash!"
Nappa spat on the ground and swept his gaze over the remaining Saiyans.
Aside from Bardock and Paragus, every other Saiyan was intimidated by Nappa's glare, stepping back in fear.
"Well? Do you know now who the true King of the Saiyans is?"
Just as Nappa's voice faded, a vibration in the air echoed from the distant sky.
Everyone looked up, and the next moment, two figures suddenly appeared in mid-air.
"Who goes there?"
The arrival of Lin Chen and Broly put Turles's side on high alert.
Lin Chen did not answer, offering only a faint, indifferent smile as he stood with his hands behind his back.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
As countless gazes converged upon him, a collective gasp of shock suddenly rippled through the scene.
Turles looked around at the Saiyans, who were staring as if they had seen a ghost, and barked coldly, "What is it? Who exactly is he?"
On the ground, Nappa, who had been radiating a monstrous ferocity just moments ago, retreated a few steps with a look of terror, his body trembling uncontrollably.
No one answered Turles's question.
But on Bardock's side, Paragus suddenly knelt in the direction of Lin Chen, cupped his fists, and shouted aloud, "He is the hero who led the Saiyans to defeat Frieza! The true King of our Saiyan race! His Majesty Lynx!"
Following Paragus, Bardock also knelt down in excitement, crying out, "Greetings, Your Majesty Lynx!"
"Your Majesty Lynx!"
After Bardock took the lead, a second, a third, a fourth... every Saiyan who had not defected to Turles knelt to the ground, their shouts echoing incessantly.
As for Turles's side, the Saiyans who had recently defected to him were just as cowering as Nappa.
Although he had not appeared before them for five years, the weight of Lin Chen's prestige remained.
Seeing this, Turles let out a cold snort and tapped his scouter.
However, the result he saw left him puzzled: "5,000? How does this guy only have a battle power of 5,000? Even the little guy next to him has 10,000!"
"Have these Saiyans lost their minds? Daring to call someone with 5,000 battle power a true king?"
"You death-seeking fool, get down to the ground!"
One of Turles's direct subordinates flew out and charged toward Lin Chen, intending to knock him down to the ground.
Seeing this, Nappa on the ground immediately shouted, "Lord Cacao, watch out! That Lynx has a battle power of 100,000!"
"What?"
Cacao had barely heard Nappa's warning and had not yet reacted when he saw Lin Chen suddenly sweep his leg toward him.
Bang!
With a dull thud, Cacao was sent flying backward at a speed even faster than before, slamming headfirst into the trunk of the Tree of Might.
Splat!
He was reduced to a puddle of flesh and blood!
