"Kamehameha!!!"
"Destructo Disc!!"
"Special Beam Cannon!!"
"Tri-Beam!"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Under the barrage of explosions, countless soldiers were blasted into smithereens!
Although they outnumbered Gohan and the others a hundred to one, their quality was simply lacking. Every person present was a master capable of taking on a hundred foes, yet these soldiers seemed immortal, gradually wearing down the Z Fighters' stamina.
Seeing his companions struggling to hold the line, Gohan could no longer restrain himself. He flared his energy and transformed into a Super Saiyan! In an instant, his aura surged violently!
With a cold expression, Gohan extended his palm toward the soldiers and unleashed a laser blast, instantly wiping out a large group!
Meanwhile, Piccolo was locked in an evenly matched struggle with an Ox-Demon Soldier. Without hesitation, Gohan flashed directly in front of the opponent. He didn't strike; he simply stared at him intensely.
"You wretched brat!! Die!!" The Ox-Demon Soldier roared in fury and threw a fierce punch at Gohan!
Whoosh!
But the Ox-Demon struck empty air!
Gohan had appeared behind him and delivered a single hand-chop. The Ox-Demon was struck as if by a heavy blow; he went blank, lost consciousness, and crashed heavily to the ground.
After dealing with the foe, Gohan nodded to Piccolo and vanished in the blink of an eye.
It is worth noting that Gohan did not go for the kill; being kind-hearted, he merely knocked the soldiers unconscious.
On the other side, Frieza watched this scene with veins bulging on his forehead, grinding his teeth as he glared at the valiant Son Gohan.
"Who... who is this?" Sorbet was covered in cold sweat. Seeing his soldiers falling one by one, his heart was bleeding!
"This is a Super Saiyan! I never expected Son Goku's son to be capable of this, though I must say, he is just as soft-hearted as his father—so soft it makes one want to vomit!"
Although Frieza's strength surpassed Gohan's, having been cut down by Saiyans twice had left him with psychological scars. Seeing Son Gohan transform made his expression look extremely grim.
The next instant, Frieza suddenly flashed in front of Gohan!
Sensing the danger, Gohan let out an angry shout and threw a punch at Frieza.
Frieza remained cold, caught Gohan's fist with ease, closed the distance, and landed a solid punch right into Gohan's stomach!
"Ughhh!!"
Gohan couldn't withstand the impact and immediately vomited bile.
Because his fist was held, he didn't fly backward; instead, his body went limp, his golden hair reverted to black, and his aura weakened drastically!
"Gohan!!" Krillin, Piccolo, and the others were horrified to see Gohan taken out just like that.
Frieza looked at Son Gohan, a smirk curling his lips. The next moment, he grabbed Gohan's hand and kicked him hard!
"Ughhh!!!"
Gohan let out a miserable scream as he flew backward, crashing into a cliffside and causing it to collapse!
"Go save him!" Krillin's expression changed as he shouted urgently.
Piccolo gritted his teeth, flared his aura, and charged toward Gohan's position.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Frieza blocked his path. He looked at Piccolo with an evil smile, opened his palm, and fired a red energy blast that sent Piccolo crashing into the sea!
"Piccolo!!"
Krillin and the others fell into despair. If even Piccolo was no match for him, how could they possibly fight?
Frieza glanced at Krillin and the others, wearing a meaningful smile.
Krillin and the others were so intimidated by Frieza's gaze that they didn't dare move. The opponent was simply too terrifying! They had absolutely no chance of winning!
"Ho ho ho! It seems I am too powerful; I'm practically bullying you all!" Frieza didn't attack again. He had lost the desire to fight; he had expected these people to help him warm up, but they were simply not up to the task!
Frieza withdrew his gaze, preparing to return to his throne, when suddenly his eyes widened. He spun around and looked in a certain direction.
There, appearing out of nowhere, was a young boy with a tail.
"Who... who are you?!" Frieza looked at the boy in surprise.
The boy smiled at him slightly: "Frieza, I've finally found you!"
"Hm? You know me?" Frieza asked, puzzled.
The boy nodded: "Naturally, I know you!"
"Luya! How did you get here? No, you're finally here!!" Bulma suddenly exclaimed in pleasant surprise.
Luya nodded at her: "Sorry to keep you waiting!"
"What? He's that Saiyan, Luya? He looks quite formidable!" Krillin and Master Roshi both looked at Luya with curiosity and surprise.
However, their expressions quickly turned grave, for they realized they couldn't gauge the strength of his aura at all!
How is that possible?
Luya smiled slightly, then looked at Krillin: "Mr. Krillin, you should have Senzu Beans on you, right? Hurry and go save Piccolo and Gohan!"
Hearing this, Krillin looked a bit dazed: "May I ask, do you know me?"
Luya was taken aback, then laughed: "I do, but now is not the time for that. Save them first!"
Hearing this, Krillin nodded in realization, then cast a lingering, fearful glance at Frieza before flying toward the shore.
However, Frieza clearly had no intention of letting him succeed; the next moment, he appeared in front of Krillin, blocking his path.
Krillin's expression changed instantly, and he gritted his teeth as he stared at Frieza, bracing himself for a desperate fight to the death.
Whoosh!
At that moment, Luya suddenly appeared before him, facing Frieza, and said: "Your opponent is me. As it happens, I'd like to see just how formidable the Emperor of the Universe, Frieza, really is!"
Upon hearing this, the corners of Frieza's mouth curled into a smirk: "Ho ho ho! Is that so? Very well, I shall accept your challenge!"
Luya's lips turned upward.
Seeing this, Krillin immediately flew off to rescue the others.
Luya and Frieza hovered in the air, staring each other down, neither making the first move.
He had already clearly gauged Frieza's combat power just now; since the opponent hadn't undergone those four months of training before this invasion, his combat power was only 7 billion!
When Gohan transformed into a Super Saiyan, his combat power had risen to 6.8 billion. It was that 200 million difference, combined with Frieza's perfect sneak attack, that had allowed Gohan to be taken out in a single blow!
Tsk tsk, Luya felt a pang of regret. If Gohan had never given up on his training, he probably wouldn't be any weaker than Frieza right now!
But this meant he had nothing to fear; after all, his own combat power was 6.5 billion! Although there was a slight gap, it wasn't enough to result in a crushing defeat!
Luya suddenly extended his palm toward Frieza.
Frieza was stunned, then smiled slightly, making no further move.
Pfft!
The next moment, Luya suddenly fired a ki blast! It shot straight at Frieza!
Frieza's smile didn't waver as he tilted his head with ease, and the ki blast flew right past his ear, missing him entirely.
Frieza looked at Luya and laughed: "Are you here to be a comedian?"
Luya gave a mysterious smile: "Am I?"
Frieza froze, a sudden sense of foreboding washing over him. He realized something and whipped his head around.
He saw that the ki blast Luya had fired had curved in mid-air, hurtling straight toward Sorbet!
"No... no!! Lord Frieza! Save me! Save... ahhhh!"
BOOM!
Sorbet was blown to pieces by the ki blast!
