"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

On one of the battlefields, Yamcha was locked in fierce combat with a Saiyan foot soldier.

"Ha!"

Yamcha pulled back to open up some distance, gathering a yellow ki blast in his right hand.

"Spirit Ball!"

Yamcha hurled the ki blast from his right hand, sending it straight at the Saiyan foot soldier.

The foot soldier dodged it easily, but Yamcha manipulated the direction of the ki blast again with his right hand.

Boom!

The ki blast successfully struck the enemy, letting out a tremendous roar.

But less than a second later, the foot soldier's massive body charged out of the thick smoke and punched Yamcha in the chest.

"Pfft!"

Yamcha spat out a mouthful of blood, all his organs shaking from the impact.

"Hmph, too weak to withstand a single blow!"

The foot soldier snorted coldly, clasped both hands together, and hammered Yamcha into the ground.

Yamcha still collapsed on the sand dune, barely clinging to life.

"It's over!"

The soldier gathered a purple ki blast in his right hand, intending to finish Yamcha in one strike.

"Whoosh!—"

Just as the purple ki blast was about to hit Yamcha, a white energy ball knocked it away, sending it crashing into the sand dune beside him.

Boom!

Like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, it kicked up sand and dust that filled the sky.

"Who's there?!"

The moment the Saiyan foot soldier saw someone intervene in the battlefield, he immediately went on alert.

"I don't have much time. Let's end this quickly."

Li Feng instantly appeared in front of that Saiyan soldier and drove a punch into the foot soldier's abdomen.

"Cough! Ah!"

The foot soldier's body bent backward like a shrimp from the blow, and he spat out a mouthful of bitter fluid.

Li Feng immediately turned and rushed to the next battlefield, firing a tiny ki blast at the foot soldier without even looking back.

"Boom!"

It was only a tiny ki blast, yet it carried terrifying power, and the foot soldier was completely annihilated.

"Where do you think you're running?!"

Elsewhere, a tall Saiyan foot soldier was chasing Krillin.

"Destructo Disc!"

Krillin raised his right hand, condensing a yellow blade of ki.

"Ha!"

Krillin swung the Destructo Disc at the enemy.

"Naive!"

That tall Saiyan also launched a ki blast.

But when the two energies collided, the Destructo Disc sliced through the energy ball like butter, then cut straight toward the tall Saiyan!

"What?!"

The big oaf had not expected Krillin's Destructo Disc to be so powerful, and hurriedly dodged.

"Swish!"

The Destructo Disc grazed the big oaf, taking part of his armor with it, then sliced the hill completely flat!

"Bastard!"

The big oaf flew into a shameful rage and hurriedly unleashed a barrage of ki blasts at Krillin, delusionally hoping to blast him to pieces.

But Prince Trick had always been all smoke and no damage.

After the smoke cleared, an extra figure stood ahead.

"Li Feng! You're here!"

Krillin cried out in delight.

Destructo Disc was already his ultimate move, but he still could not hit the enemy. His ki was almost exhausted. If Li Feng had not helped block that wave of attacks just now, he might already have been done for.

"Mm. Take these Senzu Beans and give them to the others."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Feng handed the Senzu Beans to Krillin.

There was no helping it. Right now, Li Feng simply had plenty of Senzu Beans.

"Hmph, where did this brat who doesn't know the height of heaven or the depth of earth come from?"

The big, stupid Saiyan said disdainfully.

"Where is your boss?"

Li Feng asked.

"You are not qualified to ask about the whereabouts of the esteemed Lord Turles."

"Then die."

Li Feng flashed and appeared in front of that Saiyan.

"Hmph? That's all you've got?... Ah!"

He had thought another fool had come to throw his life away, only to run into the god of death.

Still in less than three seconds, the big, stupid Saiyan soldier was turned into pieces.

There was no helping it. Li Feng was simply too strong now. After training in the Gravity Training Room, his battle power had already reached 500,000!

Dealing with these small fry was effortless.

Whoosh!

Li Feng flashed away once more.

"Li Feng really is strong!"

After eating a Senzu Bean, Krillin could not help sighing with emotion.

"Now I have to give the others Senzu Beans. I hope everyone's all right."

Krillin flew toward the place where Yamcha's aura was the weakest.

Another battlefield.

Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu were fleeing frantically.

Two purple-skinned twin soldiers were chasing them from behind.

"Heehee! Die!"

One of the soldiers fired a ki blast at Chiaotzu.

"Chiaotzu! Run!"

Tien Shinhan shoved Chiaotzu away and took the attack himself.

"Ah!----"

Tien Shinhan let out a scream and was blasted into the ground.

"Tien Shinhan!"

Chiaotzu cried out in shock.

"You can go on your way too!"

The soldier following right behind also launched another energy ball at Chiaotzu.

"No!"

Chiaotzu shouted in despair. But after fleeing madly, his ki was already insufficient, and he could only watch as he failed to dodge.

Boom!

At that moment, a yellow energy ball knocked away the enemy's attack from behind.

"You've gone too far. I won't let you off!"

The one who had rushed over was Gohan!

It turned out that, just like in the original plot, after Chi-Chi grounded Gohan, he still came to the Tree of Might under the lead of the Velociraptor, then followed after Chiaotzu and the others, saving them just in time.

"Where did this little brat come from?"

The twin brothers said disdainfully.

"Hah! Ah!----"

When Gohan saw his friends injured, he immediately flared his ki in anger.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh—

The white aura instantly sent the two men behind flying.

"Haah! Ah!----"

A white whirlwind flashed past, and Gohan transformed straight into a white beast. His attacks were razor-sharp, and he instantly beat the two of them until they had no power to fight back.

"Ha!"

"Bang! Bang!"

Gohan's right fist and left leg struck the enemies respectively. Their bodies flew backward like cannon shells and slammed straight into the ground with a thunderous crash.

"Oh? You're a Saiyan?"

Just then, an abrupt voice came from behind Gohan.

"Huh? Dad?"

Gohan looked at the man before him, at a face exactly like Wukong's, and said in confusion.

"No, you're not Dad. Who are you?"

"Heh-heh. You really are Kakarot's son."

Turles laughed.

"I can give you a chance. Join my corps and serve me."

Turles tempted him.

"This planet is already beyond saving. We surviving Saiyans are meant to conquer planet after planet!"

"I refuse!"

Gohan answered angrily.

"Hmph, brat, don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"

The smile vanished from Turles's face, and he grabbed Gohan with one hand.

"Get your filthy hands off him!"

Another unfamiliar voice rang out, and then a yellow ki blast shot toward Turles.

Turles dodged, and his hand released Gohan as well.

The one holding Gohan was none other than the man in the white cape—Piccolo!

Piccolo, who was practically like his real father, looked at Gohan kindly.

"Uncle Piccolo! You're here!"

Gohan said in delighted surprise.

"Mm. Are you all right?"

"I'm fine."

In just those few seconds, Turles moved at high speed and appeared behind Piccolo, then fired a purple ki blast from his palm.

"Ah!—"

To protect Gohan, Piccolo took Turles's attack hard on his back. After the white show-off robe on his body was shattered, the two of them fell from the sky.
