The Elf Continent

Lush forests and towering ancient trees that reached into the clouds

all showcased the vastness and breadth of this continent!

The Elf Race members playing throughout the jungle added a few more touches of beauty to the place!

Some were frolicking in the lake, others were sleeping in the trees, and children were playing with little animals!

The scenery was breathtaking. No man would ever want to leave this paradise!

Vegeta was no exception. At that moment, he was lying on Gulnara's long, beautiful legs, enjoying himself while she fed him fruit that looked like grapes!

This guy really knew how to have a good time. A little while ago, he had even made Gulnara feed him mouth-to-mouth. She had been completely won over by him and let him do whatever he wanted.

"Bulma should be back soon. Her bloodline ought to improve beneath the Divine Tree!" Gulnara said, blushing.

Vegeta had teased her until her face was bright red. In her heart, she grumbled, You lecherous man, you can't behave yourself for even a moment!

"Mm, let me lie here a little longer. Keeping up with you two every day is exhausting..." Vegeta said, his eyes half closed.

"That's not true. You're just too beastly. How is that our fault?" Gulnara teased.

"Mm... do you want to experience it again... huh?" As he spoke, Vegeta reached out and teased her with a finger.

His actions left Gulnara panting, her face flushed red. Soon, the two of them started again...

By then, the Divine Tree had also improved Bulma's bloodline. Her hair, originally pale blue, had turned purple, with the occasional glint of gold.

Her battle power had also increased from 1,500 to around 100,000! The Elf Race was powerful, after all. Though they weren't skilled fighters, their various psychic and healing abilities ranked among the best!

Bulma, however, hadn't awakened any special abilities. Her bloodline had been diluted by generations of intermarriage with Earthlings.

But her intelligence seemed to have grown. Scientific problems that had once eluded her now seemed clear, and she knew how to solve them.

Her spiritual strength had increased greatly, and with her enhanced stamina, she could research for days and nights without sleep or rest.

After her power had improved, Bulma returned to the palace.

Before she could enter, she heard an embarrassing sound from outside. Unable to resist, she rushed inside. The guards at the entrance recognized her and didn't dare stop her! They even wanted to go in themselves...

These five months had been torment for them, too! Their once-delicate faces were now covered in dark circles, and their eyes were bloodshot. Even when they went back to rest, they couldn't sleep; all kinds of sounds kept echoing in their minds! They were listless during the day and full of energy at night! They had even learned to pleasure themselves!

"Wow, you two! You were having fun without me... I want in too!" With that, she charged into the fray...

In space

King Cold's massive fleet was almost at Earth!

"How long until we reach our destination?" King Cold asked ominously.

"At most one month. If all goes well, we can land in half a month!" the crew member at the control panel replied respectfully.

"Good. Full speed ahead. It doesn't matter if the ships break down," Frieza said. It was his father's army, so he couldn't very well interfere.

If they'd been his own men, he would have fired a Death Beam at them long ago!...

King Kai's Planet

Watching Frieza draw closer and closer to Earth, King Kai was beside himself with worry. He couldn't reach Vegeta and had no idea where he'd gone, so he could only tell Sun Wukong!

"Goku, Frieza is almost at Earth, and I still can't reach Vegeta. You can't beat him as you are now. What should we do?" King Kai asked anxiously.

Just then

"King Kai, I have a way to find Vegeta. Don't worry!" Dende's voice came from the Lookout!

"Really? I can't find him. Could he be outside the North Galaxy?" King Kai asked, puzzled.

"I'm not sure either, but he left a way to contact him, so we can reach him!" Dende continued to explain.

"Good, then I can relax. Contact him quickly, or I'm afraid we won't make it in time!" King Kai breathed a little easier.

"Yes, King Kai." Dende finished speaking,

then looked at Mr. Popo in confusion and asked, "Mr. Popo, why did you tell me to keep this from King Kai? And can you really contact him? I can sense Frieza's evil energy. He's not far away; he'll be here soon. Will we make it in time?"

Mr. Popo had told him to say that...

"Guardian of Earth, the time isn't right yet. I'll tell you when the opportunity comes! Don't worry, Vegeta will definitely return!" Mr. Popo said confidently.

After all, he knew Vegeta had an ability comparable to Instant Transmission. Since he'd used it to leave Earth, he could surely come back!

Then he used his divine technique to reach out to the Elf Continent with telepathy. After all, he had his own means of contacting them there.

"Vegeta, it seems you've gotten lost in a life of luxury. Frieza is here. Can you come back now? I can't step in just yet." Mr. Popo's voice echoed in Vegeta's mind!

Vegeta had just finished a round when he heard Mr. Popo's words. His heart lurched, and he sprang to his feet.

"How could I forget about this? Frieza's still alive, and Future Trunks will come too!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Popo. I'll be back right away!" Vegeta replied.

"What's wrong, Vegeta? Did you have a nightmare? I didn't know you could get scared," Bulma said sleepily.

Gulnara was still fast asleep. After all, she'd been doing most of the work.

"Bulma, Frieza is still alive, and he's coming to Earth. What about you? Are you coming back with me, or staying here?" Vegeta asked.

"I'm going with you. I never got to see Namek last time, so this time I want to see what Frieza really looks like!" Bulma said, instantly wide awake.

"Nara, wake up... I have to go back. Something's come up," Vegeta called softly.

After waking, Gulnara listened to Vegeta's explanation and said reluctantly, "Then you have to come back soon. I'm going to miss you!"

"Don't worry, I'll come back to see you. I'm sorry, but I still can't take you out of here. I don't want the Grand Priest to detect you," Vegeta said, not wanting to leave her behind.

"Don't worry, I understand. Just come back and see me whenever you have time!" Gulnara said understandingly.

Then Vegeta and Bulma got ready and teleported back to Earth!

Goku, Piccolo, and the others sensed Vegeta's energy suddenly appear and breathed a sigh of relief!

After all, Frieza was far more powerful now than he had been in the original story!

King Kai told Vegeta and the others where Frieza would land.

They all flew toward the location he'd mentioned, with Bulma following Vegeta! Bulma wasn't much of a fighter, but her battle power had now reached 100,000. She could at least stay out of the way and protect herself!

In no time, everyone had gathered at the westernmost edge of Earth, in a scorching desert!

Vegeta, Sun Wukong, Piccolo, Krillin, Gohan, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu were all there. Only Yamcha hadn't come!

"Wow, Bulma, you're even prettier! When did you change your hairstyle? You seem even more charming!" Krillin exclaimed in surprise.

After Bulma's bloodline improved, the changes weren't limited to her hair color. Her bearing had taken on the Elf Race's elegance and charm, too!

"Blah, blah, blah... I'm not telling you!" Bulma said cutely, sticking out her tongue.

After all, Vegeta had told her not to reveal anything about the Elf Race!

"Hmm? Baldy, you've gotten gutsy in the few days since I last saw you. You dare stare at my woman?" Vegeta said ominously.

Krillin immediately felt a chill spread through his body. Even the scorching weather couldn't warm him up!!!

"Is she prettier? I can't tell. She still looks like Bulma to me, just with different hair!" Goku said, trying to break the tension—or perhaps simply being himself!

"Goku, do you not want your money anymore? Or do you not plan to use the Gravity Chamber?" Bulma threatened angrily.

She was dissatisfied with what this simple-minded man had said. What woman didn't like being complimented? Goku was the only one who didn't treat her like a woman!!

"Ah... I'm face-blind. I can't tell..." Goku said with an awkward smile.

"All right, get ready. They're about to land!" Piccolo said.

After everyone had waited for about three hours, King Cold's massive fleet slowly descended...

King Cold and Mecha Frieza slowly rose out of the spaceship. A crowd of alien grunts flew out after them!

"Ho ho ho... Vegeta, Sun Wukong! You're all here to welcome me, your king! Vegeta, how are you still alive? I clearly saw you fail to escape after the planet exploded! You Saiyans shouldn't be able to survive in the vacuum of space!" Frieza said with his familiar, eerie laugh!

"Vegeta, let me handle this! I've gotten a lot stronger lately. I should be able to beat him!" Goku said, already itching for a fight!

During this time, under Vegeta's guidance, he had broken through the Super Saiyan barrier. After getting past his bottleneck, he'd trained extensively in the Gravity Chamber Bulma's company had built for him. His base battle power had now reached around 60 million, and after transforming, it was around 3 billion!

"Wait. Look over there," Vegeta said, pointing at the strange machine in the sky in the distance.

Everyone turned to look, including Frieza and his men. None of them recognized the strange, oval-shaped spacecraft that had appeared out of nowhere in the sky!

Future Trunks jumped out...
