This is roughly what Tarble looks like.
Dragon Ball Super.
January 23, Age 776.
A remote planet.
"Tarble, are you really unwilling to marry my daughter, Guli?"
"Uncle Guping, we... really aren't right for each other!"
"Get lost!"
"The farther away, the better!"
"Don't show your face in front of my daughter again!"
"Sure thing. Uncle, actually, I came here to say goodbye. I'm going to find my big brother!"
"All you have to do is spread the word that we've fled to Earth, and you'll be safe!"
"Get lost!"
"How I handle my own business is none of your concern..."
Five minutes later, Tarble and his men boarded a spherical spaceship and left the planet, bound for Earth.
The Tarble of today was no longer the Tarble he used to be.
His body was still the same, but someone else's soul now inhabited it.
Since his rebirth, he had spent a year training on this planet.
A year of grueling training had raised his battle power to 30,000.
Of course.
He could only have improved so much with help from his cheat.
Only he could see this cheat.
Unlike the cheats belonging to other novel protagonists, which let them dominate everything under the heavens, his cheat boosted the effects of training.
What's more, he could only activate the corresponding multiplier by binding a living person with Saiyan blood.
Each person he bound doubled the effectiveness of his training.
Every time his strength advanced to a new dimension, he gained another binding slot.
Right now, with a battle power of 30,000, he was in the third dimension of strength: the planet-busting level.
Including his initial slot, he had four binding slots in total.
At present, he had bound one person, doubling his training effectiveness.
The person he had bound was Licks, an intermediate-class warrior whom King Vegeta had assigned to protect his original body.
Licks had originally had a battle power of just 2,500. After training alongside Tarble, his strength had reached 15,000.
As it happened, there had been one other person in his squad, named Tomato.
But he had died saving Tarble's original body.
And the original body had suffered severe injuries. He'd taken advantage of the opportunity and taken over, becoming the new Tarble.
That was why he had refused to marry Guli just a few minutes earlier.
You've got to be kidding!
Although he was now a 41-year-old middle-aged man, he wasn't about to follow his predecessor's example and marry some alien-looking woman.
Even if she looked a lot like one of Zeno's people, and there was a chance she might even be related to Zeno, she just wasn't his type.
He had left because he'd learned the location of Earth and the current date there.
Based on his calculations, he wouldn't reach his destination until May 8, Age 778, by Earth's calendar.
If he remembered correctly, that date was already close to when Beerus would make his appearance.
Whether Beerus showed up or not wasn't important. What mattered was that he needed to bind people with Saiyan blood to improve his training speed.
Originally, he'd planned to find the location of New Namek first and borrow the Namekian Dragon Balls.
But he simply couldn't find any information, so he had no choice but to head to Earth first.
Besides, whether the Namekians would do him a favor and lend him the Dragon Balls was another matter entirely.
There was also the fact that, after what Frieza had done back then, he couldn't believe the Namekian warriors hadn't trained hard.
Even the least talented among them would still be stronger than Nail had been back then.
With his current battle power of 30,000, he might go all that way only to come back empty-handed.
After weighing the pros and cons, it made sense to go to Earth first and improve his training speed.
After all, strength was what mattered most.
At that moment.
Through the special transparent window of the spherical spaceship, Tarble admired the stars of all sizes twinkling outside. A hint of anticipation showed in his eyes.
The next second.
Licks's voice came through the Scouter beside his ear.
"Prince Tarble, will we really be able to find Prince Vegeta on Earth?"
"Don't worry. We'll definitely find him. He might even be shocked when he sees us!
"Go into hibernation mode. Once we reach Earth, we'll know if he's there."
"Yes, Prince."
After the communication ended, Tarble looked once more at the star-speckled void, then switched off his Scouter and activated the spaceship's hibernation mode.
Aside from his height, he was quite satisfied with his current identity.
Still, he hadn't expected Tarble to have had two Saiyan bodyguards.
He hadn't thought that when King Vegeta exiled his original body back then, he would send two personal guards along to protect him.
Whatever King Vegeta was really like, Tarble felt at least a little grateful to him, if only because Licks had given him someone to bind.
Otherwise, without a high-gravity environment to train in or a way to heal injuries quickly,
there was no way his battle power could have reached 30,000.
Meanwhile.
Elsewhere.
Frieza's remaining forces had also learned through their Scouters that Tarble and Licks were heading to Earth.
"They killed my men and think they can get away?"
"Not a chance!"
"Cado, let's hurry after them!"
The speaker was an unusual blue creature with a single horn on his head. He was one of Frieza's remaining soldiers, named Abo.
The Cado he spoke of was his brother.
But Cado was red-skinned and had two horns on his head.
"Good. If there are any other Saiyans on Earth, we can wipe them all out in one go!" Cado said with a sinister grin.
But the next second, he suddenly felt that the name "Vegeta" sounded familiar.
Yet he couldn't remember who it was, so he asked,
"Hey, Abo, don't you think the name 'Vegeta' sounds familiar?"
At that, a cold smile appeared on Abo's face.
"Who else could it be!"
"He was the shortest of the three Saiyans who used to work for Frieza."
"He was always walking around with a sour look, as if everyone owed him a fortune."
"If he really is on Earth, that'll save us the trouble of searching for him!"
Cado suddenly understood. "Oh—now that you put it that way, I remember. So it was him!"
"I remember Cui couldn't stand him and was always giving him a hard time."
"Vegeta was a coward, too. He never even dared to say a word!"
"Come to think of it, Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta, and the funny thing is, Vegeta never knew. He just kept stupidly working for Frieza!"
"Tsk, tsk. Poor guy!"
Abo sneered. "Who cares if he's pitiful? If we run into him on Earth, we'll take care of all the Saiyans while we're at it!"
"So what if they beat Frieza?"
"Once we fuse, the two of us will be far stronger than Frieza ever was."
"I'd like to see if that so-called Super Saiyan is really as powerful as they say!"
Hearing that, Cado snorted in agreement. "Hmph, exactly!"
"A battle power of 120 million is nothing special these days!"
"Come on, let's hurry after them!"
"Better not let them get away again!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
May 8, Age 778.
Earth.
West City.
The sky was clear and cloudless that day.
In Bulma's luxurious estate, Vegeta was sweating freely in the Gravity Chamber.
At that moment.
The display on the gravity machine showed the huge digits "500G."
"Ninety-nine thousand... nine hundred... ninety-eight..."
"Ninety-nine thousand... nine hundred... ninety-nine..."
"One... hundred thousand!!"
As soon as the count reached one hundred thousand, his voice abruptly stopped.
