Vegeta patted his chest.

Where was the Ultra Divine Water?

Vegeta quickly looked at Bulma and Tights, as well as Jaco...

Wasn't this guy Jaco, the Galactic Patrolman?

What was he doing here?

Vegeta soon noticed the doctor over there.

The doctor was still holding the bottle of Ultra Divine Water.

Vegeta stretched out a hand from a distance, and an invisible force immediately tugged at the doctor's hand.

"Smack!"

The bottle of Ultra Divine Water slipped out of the doctor's grasp against his will and flew straight toward Vegeta.

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

It seemed the Ultra Divine Water had increased quite a bit while he was asleep.

Should he drink it now, or wait three days until it was full?

He'd wait three days and see.

Drinking two pounds at once would work better.

Vegeta put the bottle of Ultra Divine Water away.

The next moment, Vegeta strode toward Bulma and Tights.

The sisters Bulma and Tights were both dumbfounded.

Jaco was completely frozen, too.

That was because Jaco had suddenly noticed... the child had a tail behind him.

Wasn't that a Saiyan?

Was this guy named Vegeta?

Wasn't he Prince Vegeta, the Saiyan prince?

I knew his name sounded familiar.

So it was him.

Why had the Saiyan prince come to Earth, too?

This was an absolute disaster!

Earth was done for now.

I'd better get out of here.

"Um... my stomach hurts... I'm going to the bathroom..." Jaco said, then turned and ran.

I'm not staying with a monster.

"Stop," Vegeta said.

Jaco: "..."

Jaco nearly lost it.

You think I'll stop just because you tell me to?

No way!

Jaco ran even faster.

"Which do you think is faster, you or my energy blast?" Vegeta's voice drifted over from far away.

Jaco: "..."

Jaco immediately stopped, skidding to a halt.

"Ahem... um..." Jaco sheepishly walked back.

"Why did you run when you saw me? Did you recognize who I am?" Vegeta narrowed his eyes at Jaco.

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

"Bulma, what happened? What's this guy in the white coat doing here?" Vegeta stopped paying attention to Jaco and asked Bulma.

"Vegeta... you're okay. I thought you were dead." Bulma breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly added, "I don't want to be a widow."

"What kind of logic is that..." Vegeta was at a loss for words.

"My mom and dad drank the liquor in your bottle... They were taken away in an ambulance, and the hospital has already issued a critical condition notice." Bulma cried as she spoke to Vegeta.

"W-what did you say?" Vegeta was stunned.

Bulma's parents had drunk the Ultra Divine Water?

Your parents were really something.

No wonder the hospital had issued a critical condition notice.

A lot of healthy people had died after drinking that stuff.

Your parents were just ordinary people.

This had turned into a huge mess.

"Don't panic. I'll ask someone and see if there's any way to save them," Vegeta said thoughtfully.

"Huh? You have a way?" Bulma was taken aback.

"It's still uncertain. Wait here a moment. I'll be right back." As Vegeta spoke, he shot into the sky like a cannonball.

Vegeta blasted off.

He was so fast that a series of sonic booms rang out behind him.

Before long, Vegeta appeared atop Korin Tower.

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

Korin stared at Vegeta in a daze.

You drank two pounds of Ultra Divine Water, and you're fine?

And I can clearly feel...

The energy inside you is practically about to explode.

"I know about what happened to Bulma's parents... I'm sorry, but even I can't neutralize the Ultra Divine Water's poison..." Korin shook his head. "If there were a way, all those people who died after drinking it 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 can't do anything, then... Bulma's parents probably can't be saved," Korin said gravely.

"Whoosh!"

Vegeta appeared on the Palace of the Guardian of Earth in an instant.

The Guardian of Earth looked at Vegeta in alarm, too.

In just a few hours, the energy inside this kid had become outrageous.

If his energy level had been a little over ten thousand before... now I'd say it's increased by at least three hundred times.

The Guardian of Earth was genuinely terrified.

With a battle 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 said with a helpless sigh.

I've never seen anyone this strange before.

He actually drank Ultra Divine Water like it was liquor.

"Now? You're pretty agreeable," Vegeta said with a faint smile.

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

The Guardian of Earth personally treated Bulma's parents to remove the poison.

It was a special healing technique of the Namekians, one Vegeta didn't know.

It took less than a minute.

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

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

"Good." Vegeta nodded in satisfaction and patted the Guardian of Earth on the shoulder. "I owe you one."

"Not at all. I'm the Guardian of Earth, and I wouldn't want to see the greatest scientist on Earth die from Ultra Divine Water poisoning," the Guardian of Earth said with a smile.

"Fine, I'll be off, then." As Vegeta spoke, he turned into a streak of light and quickly disappeared.

The Guardian of Earth was stunned.

Why did you say you were leaving... and then fly toward the Palace?

Before long, the Guardian of Earth saw Vegeta piloting the spaceship that had been left at the Palace down from the sky and flying toward West City.

Soon, the spaceship Vegeta was piloting landed at Capsule Corp's headquarters.

The sudden appearance of such a massive object overhead gave Bulma and Tights quite a scare.

Jaco was trembling all over with fear.

He really was a Saiyan.

Wasn't that Frieza's spaceship?

"Clang!"

The spaceship's hatch opened, and Vegeta flew out.

Vegeta appeared in front of Bulma.

"Oh, it's you... Is that your spaceship?" Bulma breathed a sigh of relief.
