Ancient Entanglements Between the Saiyans and the Elves

Elf Continent

Vegeta opened the door and was suddenly stunned by the sight before him! Beyond the palace where he stood, he gazed out at the surrounding landscape.

Ancient trees, lush and verdant, and flowers blooming in a riot of color.

Shady trees and flowers in full bloom! It was like stepping into a paradise on earth! No matter how many words of praise he used, he couldn't capture even a fraction of this scenery!

"You're awake, man. I'll go report to the Elf Queen right away. Wait here, and don't go wandering off!" said the elf guard outside.

With Vegeta's usual temper, he never would've put up with her acting so high and mighty. He would've killed her on the spot. But seeing such beautiful scenery put him in a good mood, and he couldn't be bothered to argue with a woman.

He stepped outside and strolled into the garden in front of the house. He saw creatures resembling butterflies fluttering about, showing off their colorful wings atop the flowers. Unable to resist, he slowly reached out a finger and gently touched one.

The picturesque scenery, the Saiyans' usual brutality and domineering air! With the flowers and fine clothes to soften them, they seemed to have vanished.

What remained was a refined young nobleman.

Only his flame-like, upright hairstyle and the tail coiled around his waist looked so out of place!

"Man, come with me. The Queen wants to see you!" The guard who had gone to report his arrival returned and ordered him.

"Hmph. This prince has a name. It's Vegeta. And... watch your tone! If you speak to this prince like that again, I'll make sure you never see tomorrow's scenery!" Vegeta said.

As he spoke, a trace of killing intent surfaced around him, and the guard broke out in a cold sweat. His powerful killing intent chilled her to the bone, as if she had just stepped into the legendary depths of hell!

She hurriedly said with respect, "Y-yes, respected Prince Vegeta. Please come with me..."

"Hmph. You don't know how to appreciate a good thing. You had to make me ruin this beautiful scene!" Vegeta snorted.

Then he followed her toward the palace at the center.

In the main hall

"Your Majesty, why didn't you kill him? We're hiding in this region now because of what his ancestors did when they followed..." Catherine was angrily saying something to the Elf Queen.

"That's enough. Whatever happened between our ancestors was ten thousand years ago. All we know about it comes from the records they left behind!" the Elf Queen interrupted Catherine.

Vegeta had just entered.

The woman on the throne looked so stunning that he was instantly captivated.

She stood about 1.75 meters tall and had blue-and-gold hair and a face of exquisite perfection. Even beneath her royal robes, her impressive bust was impossible to conceal. Her waist looked slender enough to snap if someone so much as touched it. Lower down, her pert backside made Vegeta's eyes linger despite himself. He subtly shifted his posture to hide his reaction.

For a moment, he stared blankly, completely forgetting why he had come.

"How dare you, lowly Saiyan, profane our Queen with such a lecherous gaze!" Catherine shouted at Vegeta, who looked like he was practically drooling.

At her words, Vegeta's gaze immediately cleared. He turned away from the captivating sight and looked at Catherine, his aura suddenly turning violent.

"Do you... want to die?"

Catherine was too intimidated to speak.

"That's enough, Catherine. Leave us. I have something to discuss with him," the Queen said.

"But..." Catherine started to say.

"I said, leave..." the Queen ordered.

A powerful aura erupted from the Queen as well. Vegeta sensed that her power was around one hundred million.

He was astonished. He hadn't expected such a powerful race to be hidden away in the universe! It seemed this world was more than just what Akira Toriyama had drawn. There were many secrets still unknown!

Catherine remembered the Queen's terrifying strength and methods. She didn't dare say another word and respectfully withdrew.

The Queen said, "Saiyan, please sit. I don't know your name yet."

The Queen slowly drew in the aura she had released, then flicked a hand. A wicker chair appeared behind Vegeta.

Vegeta sat down without hesitation and crossed his legs. "Heh heh, Your Majesty, my name is Vegeta! I'm the Saiyan Prince. Oh, I forgot—Saiyans are extinct now. There are only a few of us left! I suppose you could call me the Saiyan King now!"

Vegeta made sure to state his status. He didn't want to lose in presence to anyone, not even the woman sitting before him!

"Heh heh. It seems the Saiyans haven't lost their characteristic pride and arrogance," the Queen said with a smile.

"You know I'm a Saiyan? I didn't even know your people existed," Vegeta said, puzzled.

"Back in ancient times..." The Queen began to explain everything.

It turned out that billions of years ago, the Saiyans and the Elf Race had been very close. The Saiyans of that era weren't as violent and merciless as they were now. They simply enjoyed fighting on the front lines, protecting the peace of the universe. The Elf Race supported them from the rear and helped wrap things up. Their fighting strength was considerable too.

But since their entire race was female, they weren't fond of pointless fighting. They longed for peace and also had healing abilities.

They were a perfect match for the Saiyans! The two races shared what they had, and there were even romances between members of different races! But they couldn't have children together. Only a union between the Saiyan King and the Elf Queen could possibly produce offspring, and even then the odds were very low!

But if a child was born, it would be terrifyingly powerful. Even in its normal state, it would possess the power of an ape. As a Super Saiyan, its hair would turn green, and it would inherit the Elf Race's genes. It would also have limitless potential and a body that grew stronger when facing stronger opponents!

That changed when Yamoshi became the Saiyan King! During a peacekeeping mission, he discovered the God of Destruction. He realized that the peace the Saiyans had been protecting was merely an illusion shown to them by the so-called gods!

In places he couldn't see,

the God of Destruction freely destroyed planets and controlled the lives and deaths of others. Sometimes, over something as trivial as food, he would finish eating, flip the table, and destroy a planet!

Yamoshi held such a god in contempt. So he led his people in an assault on the gods! The Saiyans of that era were incredibly powerful. Aside from the Saiyans with righteous hearts, who could transform into a godly state with red hair, most of the others could become Super Saiyans.

Their battle powers ranged from hundreds of millions to tens of billions, hundreds of billions, and even over a trillion. There were countless Saiyans like that. The strongest was Yamoshi. By the time he inherited the throne, he could already transform into a Super Saiyan 4!

As the strongest Saiyan in history, he led a battle that left both the Supreme Kai and the God of Destruction dead. Whis wasn't very powerful back then. He could only keep himself alive; he couldn't save anyone else!

Just as Yamoshi was about to win, the Grand Priest appeared!

Yamoshi's power still fell short of the Grand Priest's. But the Grand Priest couldn't eliminate him either. Though Yamoshi was only a Super Saiyan 4, his base battle power was so great that he had already crossed the divide between mortals and gods. Through sheer power and combat, he had reached the level of the so-called gods!

After the Grand Priest stopped the fighting, he spared the Saiyan Race because it had played a great part in keeping Universe 7 peaceful.

He sealed Yamoshi and cursed the Saiyan bloodline, filling it with violent tendencies and preventing them from transforming into a godly state. He even sealed part of their genes, making it difficult for Saiyans to become Super Saiyans!

The Saiyans' home planet was caught in the terrible shock waves of the battle and completely vanished!

Since the Elf Race hadn't taken part in the fighting, the Grand Priest spared them.

After the battle ended, the Elf Queen of that era had been deeply in love with Yamoshi. She tried everything she could to break his seal! At last, she found the Dragon Balls personally created by Dragon God Zalama and secretly made a wish to free Yamoshi!

Having fought against the gods, the Elf Race had exceptional natural gifts. They had long since learned the divine language, so they could summon Super Shenron!

With the God of Destruction dead, Universe 7 was in ruins, and the Angels weren't keeping a close watch on the Elf Race. This gave the Elves an opportunity. By the time anyone noticed, it was too late. But strangely, Yamoshi didn't start another war.

Seeing this, Whis assumed that Yamoshi had submitted, so he didn't summon the Grand Priest again!

While Whis searched for a new God of Destruction and Supreme Kai,

Yamoshi secretly hid away to train. He also found Namek at the time and made a wish for the Elf Race to become undetectable and remain hidden. That was how the Elf Continent came to be!

Back then, Yamoshi had refused the Elf Queen's affection because of his ideals. But he couldn't deny that he had also fallen for the woman who had given everything for him! So he hid the Elves away to keep them from taking part in the later wars. He was protecting them!

Namek, meanwhile, suffered a terrible natural disaster because of the overuse of the Dragon Balls and nearly went extinct! The Namekians had no choice but to scatter far and wide, and the records of their race also disappeared! Only a few elders passed the stories down by word of mouth.

By the time the Grand Elder was in power, all he knew was that an Elf Race existed. He had no idea they were connected to the Saiyans like this!

Later, after intense training, Yamoshi successfully transformed into a Super Saiyan 6!

By then, he no longer sought out the Saiyans, because the seal had left their strength far weaker than before. Going to them would only have gotten them killed.

He went alone and fought his way into Zeno's Palace. Back then, none of the Gods of Destruction, Angels, or even the Grand Priest could defeat him!

At last, Zeno personally stepped in and completely erased Yamoshi with the power of his rule over all things.

Yamoshi met his spectacular end with a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.

The Grand Priest couldn't escape responsibility either. He voluntarily stepped down and gave up his position to the creator of the Angels, the strongest Angel beneath the Grand Priest—the father of Whis and the others!

As for him, he disappeared and went into hiding!

"So Mr. Popo was the former Grand Priest. No wonder his strength is unfathomable. Broly's bloodline really did come from the Saiyans and the Elf Race!" Vegeta recalled everything he knew.

"Then I have a question. How does your Elf Race reproduce? It looks like there aren't any men in your race," Vegeta asked, puzzled.

"There's a Divine Tree on our continent. When a woman wants a child, she makes a wish beneath it. Before long, she'll become pregnant and give birth," the Elf Queen said, pointing to the enormous ancient tree outside the window.

"Of course, the union of the Queen's bloodline and the Saiyan King's bloodline could also produce powerful descendants who inherited the strengths of both races," the Queen added.

"What? I think I know someone like the one you described. But even though he's powerful, he can't control himself. Extreme anger makes him lose his mind and destroy everything in front of him!" Vegeta said, thinking of Broly.

"That's because the former Grand Priest sealed part of your genes and cursed your bloodline. That's why the inherited bloodline became uncontrollable!" the Elf Queen replied.

"So that's why the Saiyan legends only speak of the Super Saiyan who appears once every thousand years. There are no records of the Elf Race, yet the bloodline of the two races together survived in legend," Vegeta murmured.

"Why are you telling me all this? Our races haven't had any contact for many years! Do you have some other motive?" Vegeta asked warily.

"Some of our people hate the Saiyans, while others stand with you because of the glorious history we once shared! I believe that one day we'll return to the universe and leave this region. I, for one, stand with you!" the Queen said.

"So you want me to help you end your concealment and return to the universe. Why do you trust me? My strength is nowhere near that of the gods!" Vegeta asked.

"Our Queen's bloodline has another ability: foreseeing other people's futures. But I can't foresee yours. I want to take a chance! If you succeed, everyone will be happy. If you fail, the worst that can happen is that things stay the way they are now!" the Queen said.

"What do I get out of it? Why should I help you? That would mean standing against the gods!"

"You'll have our people's support. We can't help you fight, but we can foresee the future and heal. And I could even be with you, if you wanted. Oh, right—since you're now the Saiyan King, you can call me by my name. Gulnara."

As Vegeta listened to the tempting offer, he struggled with himself.

Seeing his conflicted expression, Gulnara tempted him further. "It's possible that the two of us could have powerful children. And according to the records I've read, my appearance matches the Saiyan standards of beauty. Are you really not interested in me at all?"...
