King Kai's Planet...

"Goku, you need to hurry. You've already wasted over two hundred days on Snake Way, and there are only 158 days left. You've just managed to catch Bubbles, and you still haven't hit Gregory," King Kai said.

A young man in an orange gi was holding a wooden mallet and frantically chasing a grasshopper-like creature. That was Gregory.

Sun Wukong said, "King Kai, I understand. I'll catch him soon."

"Although I have confidence in the techniques I created, I can't guarantee you'll be able to beat those two Saiyans. After all, they're both incredibly strong," King Kai said.

King Kai looked at the muscle-bound man with his vacant expression and thought, Maybe you really can do it. In such a short time, you've already managed to catch Bubbles on King Kai's Planet, where the gravity is ten times that of Earth...

If Vegeta knew what King Kai was thinking, he'd surely have smugly declared, I was born on Planet Vegeta, where the gravity is ten times normal! Ha ha...

"Thok." A faint knock rang out as Sun Wukong struck Gregory on the head.

"King Kai, I hit him! Ha ha!" Sun Wukong said.

"You're a genius! Good, good, good. Next, I'll teach you the technique I created myself: Kaio-ken," King Kai said.

"Kaio-ken? What kind of technique is that?" Goku asked in confusion.

King Kai turned his back to Goku and gave two affected coughs. "Kaio-ken, as the name suggests, is a fighting technique I created myself. It can multiply your battle power. With a onefold Kaio-ken, your battle power doubles; by the same principle, however many times you can raise it, you can unleash that many times your original strength. Although I created it, even I can't bring its power to the absolute limit. This technique can increase your battle power and make you much faster, but it puts tremendous strain on your body. Without a strong physique, you won't be able to withstand it. Whether you can learn it is up to you," King Kai explained slowly.

"King Kai, teach me! I want to learn!" Goku said, his eyes shining.

Four months later

In space, two streaks of light flashed by.

Inside a round spaceship, Vegeta was fast asleep when a cold, mechanical voice rang in his mind and woke him.

"Ding. System fusion successful. The system is now online."

Hearing the voice, Vegeta exclaimed excitedly, "System, you're awake! Tell me what you can do. Weren't you supposed to take five months? How did you fuse successfully in just four?"

"This system was merely keeping a low profile. If the host isn't satisfied, this system doesn't mind sleeping for another... month," the system said smugly.

Vegeta inwardly twitched. You machine! You slept for four months. Just wait until I get stronger—I'm uninstalling you. Was it even decent to take what you needed and then kick the ladder away?

"Host, the thoughts in your mind are no different from saying them out loud. This system can receive them all!" the system said in its cold yet smug voice.

"System, sir, I was wrong! I was wrong! I hope you'll be magnanimous and forgive a petty person like me," Vegeta said with a bitter smile.

"This is the Strongest Choice System. The system will issue missions from time to time for the host to choose from."

Personal Profile

Race: Saiyan

Battle Power: 12,000 (Note: After transmigrating, the soul and body were not fully compatible, so battle power had decreased.)

Skills: Artificial Moon, Galick Gun, Galick Cannon, Prince Tactics!

"Ding. One beginner's gift pack. As the system's host, how can you settle for second place? Here's a gift pack. From now on, you'll only receive rewards after completing missions issued by the system," the system said.

"Open the beginner's gift pack," Vegeta said excitedly. He wondered what good stuff he'd get.

"Ding. Beginner's gift pack: Battle power increased by 10,000. Reward: one S-Cell Booster. (Note: S-Cells are essential for transforming into a Super Saiyan. Without them, transformation is impossible. Reaching 100% S-Cells is required to transform. Anger can also increase S-Cells, but nowhere near as much as a booster.) One booster increases S-Cells by 20%. Friendly reminder: a strong foundation in battle power is important. Without a foundation of three million battle power, even if you can transform, there's only one possible outcome: your body will explode because it can't withstand the strain!" the system explained.

"System, combine my battle power and boost my S-Cells!" Vegeta was so excited he could hardly contain himself. Kakarot, just you wait. I won't kill you. I'll make sure you're always second-best. Ha ha!

A surge of powerful energy made Vegeta's body tremble uncontrollably. His battle power soared! What a terrifying, yet incredible force! It filled Vegeta's body bit by bit...
