Vegeta patted his own chest.

Where is the Ultra Divine Water?

Vegeta quickly looked toward Bulma, Tights, and Jaco, who were present...

Isn't this guy that Galactic Patrolman, Jaco?

What is he doing here?

Vegeta soon spotted the doctor over there as well.

He saw that the doctor was still holding the bottle of Ultra Divine Water in his hand.

Vegeta reached out through the air, and an invisible suction force from his hand acted rapidly upon the doctor's hand.

"Snap!"

The bottle of Ultra Divine Water was pulled uncontrollably from the doctor's grip and immediately flew toward Vegeta.

Vegeta caught the bottle, shook the Ultra Divine Water inside, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

It seems that during the time I was sleeping, the Ultra Divine Water has grown quite a bit.

Should I drink it now? Or wait three days for it to fill up before drinking?

Better to wait three days.

Drinking two pounds at once will have a better effect.

Vegeta stowed the bottle of Ultra Divine Water away.

The next moment, Vegeta stepped toward Bulma and Tights.

Bulma and Tights, the two sisters, were both dumbfounded.

Jaco was also completely stunned.

Because Jaco suddenly noticed... this kid actually had a tail growing behind him.

Isn't this a Saiyan?

This guy is named Vegeta?

Isn't he the Saiyan Prince, Vegeta?

I knew his name sounded familiar.

So it was him.

Why did the Saiyan Prince come to Earth too?

This is absolutely terrible!

Earth is doomed now.

I'd better make a run for it.

"Um... my stomach hurts... I'm going to the restroom..." After saying that, Jaco turned and ran.

I am not staying with a monster.

"Stop." Vegeta spoke.

Jaco: "..."

Jaco's composure nearly collapsed.

You tell me to stop, so I stop?

No way!

Jaco ran even faster.

"Do you think you're faster, or is the speed of my energy blast faster?" Vegeta's voice drifted over from afar.

Jaco: "..."

Jaco stopped immediately, screeching to a halt right where he stood.

"Ahem... well..." Jaco walked back, looking dejected.

"Why did you run when you saw me? Did you recognize my identity?" Vegeta narrowed his eyes as he looked at Jaco.

"Your identity? Who are you? I don't know you!" Jaco shook his head vigorously.

"Bulma, what happened? What is this guy in the lab coat doing here?" Vegeta stopped paying attention to Jaco and asked Bulma instead.

"Vegeta... I'm just glad you're okay, I thought you were dead," Bulma let out a sigh of relief and quickly said, "I don't want to be a widow."

"What kind of logic is that..." Vegeta was speechless.

"My mom and dad drank the 'wine' in your bottle... they were taken away by an ambulance, and the hospital has already issued a critical condition notice," Bulma cried to Vegeta.

"You... what did you say?" Vegeta was stunned.

Bulma's parents drank the Ultra Divine Water?

Your parents are truly talented.

No wonder the hospital already issued a critical condition notice.

Countless strong individuals have kicked the bucket after drinking this stuff.

Your parents are just two ordinary people.

This has turned into a massive problem.

"Don't panic yet. I'll go ask someone and see if they can be saved," Vegeta mused.

"Huh? You have a way?" Bulma was stunned.

"It's still an unknown. Wait here for me; I'll be right back," Vegeta said, shooting into the sky like a cannonball.

Vegeta launched himself off.

His speed was so immense that he left a series of sonic booms echoing in the sky.

Before long, Vegeta appeared atop Korin Tower.

"Korin, we meet again," Vegeta said, looking at Korin.

Korin stared at Vegeta, somewhat dazed.

You drank two pounds of Ultra Divine Water and you're actually fine.

And I can clearly sense...

The energy inside you is about to explode.

"I already know about Bulma's parents... I'm sorry, even I have no way to neutralize the poison of the Ultra Divine Water," Korin shook his head. "If it could be neutralized, those who died after drinking it in the past wouldn't have had to die."

Vegeta: "..."

"Is there really no other way?" Vegeta asked again.

"Go ask the Guardian of Earth. If even he has no way, then... I'm afraid Bulma's parents are beyond saving," Korin said in a deep voice.

"Whoosh!"

Vegeta rapidly appeared on the Lookout.

The Guardian of Earth also looked at Vegeta in terror.

In just a few short hours, the energy inside this kid has reached heaven-defying levels.

If his energy level was over 10,000 before... I feel like it has increased at least 300 times now.

The Guardian of Earth was truly terrified.

With a combat power like that, could he kill someone just by farting?

"I understand. I can neutralize the toxins in their bodies. Let's go now," the Guardian of Earth sighed helplessly.

It's my first time seeing such a bizarre character.

Actually treating Ultra Divine Water like wine.

"Now? You're quite straightforward," Vegeta smiled slightly.

The next moment, Vegeta and the Guardian of Earth appeared together in the hospital where Bulma's parents were.

The Guardian of Earth personally performed the detoxification for Bulma's parents.

This was a unique healing technique of the Namekians that Vegeta did not know.

It took less than a minute.

The poison from the Ultra Divine Water in Bulma's parents' bodies was completely neutralized.

"It's done. Once they wake up, they can go home," the Guardian of Earth said.

"Not bad," Vegeta nodded in satisfaction and patted the Guardian of Earth on the shoulder. "Consider me in your debt."

"Not at all, not at all. I am the Guardian of Earth; I wouldn't want to see the greatest scientist on Earth die from Ultra Divine Water poisoning," the Guardian of Earth smiled.

"Alright, then I'll take my leave," Vegeta said, turning into a streak of light once more and vanishing in an instant.

The Guardian of Earth was stunned.

Why did you say you were leaving... yet you're flying toward the Lookout?

Not long after, the Guardian of Earth saw Vegeta piloting the spaceship left on the Lookout, descending and flying toward West City.

Soon, the spaceship piloted by Vegeta landed at the Capsule Corp headquarters.

Such a massive object appearing in the sky so suddenly truly gave Bulma and Tights a fright.

Jaco was so scared he was trembling all over.

As expected of a Saiyan.

Isn't this Frieza's spaceship?

"Clack!"

The spaceship hatch opened, and Vegeta flew out from within.

Vegeta appeared in front of Bulma.

"It's you... is that your spaceship?" Bulma let out a sigh of relief.
