Raditz!

Lin Yuan had spent most of the past two years training with King Kai. Today, he learned from King Kai that Raditz had already arrived on Earth, so he hurried back.

After sensing the area briefly, he discovered that Raditz's ki had stopped moving, while Goku and Piccolo were about to reach the battlefield. Besides them, two other people had just left West City and were heading toward Raditz's location.

Given the current strength of Earth's fighters, they should have been able to handle Raditz themselves.

But Raditz was one of Lin Yuan's system missions, which was why Lin Yuan had specifically asked King Kai to notify him immediately if any Saiyans invaded Earth.

That was right—Lin Yuan had come to steal the kill.

When Goku and Piccolo arrived at the battlefield, Lin Yuan had also just used Instant Transmission to get there.

In a vast plain, Raditz stood beside a huge crater, looking at the three people before him.

He had not expected Kakarot to catch up so quickly. And from the look of things, he seemed to be here to demand an explanation?

What a death wish. Raditz sneered inwardly.

"Kakarot, are you planning to fight your big brother? You even brought along some helpers. Let me see..."

Then, the device scanned the three people before him, letting out a series of beeps.

"Power level 430... power level 350... and one more... Hahaha! This guy's power level is only 10!!"

Raditz pointed at Lin Yuan and burst into laughter. He had not expected his foolish little brother to bring a helper with a power level of only 10.

Goku looked at Raditz as if he were an idiot. Lin Yuan? A power level of only 10?

"Hey, that machine of yours must be broken. You should just throw it away!"

Goku kindly advised Raditz.

At that moment, Lin Yuan spoke.

"It's fine, Goku. Let this guy with a power level of only 10 take the lead."

Lin Yuan stepped forward and sized Raditz up, thinking, This Saiyan is really wasting his talent. The ki in his body is crude and chaotic. He only knows how to rely on that scouter to gauge an enemy's strength. The key is that Frieza is even monitoring that thing. Big fists, small brain.

Looking at this fellow with a power level of only ten, Raditz could not even be bothered to make a move. He had just killed a human with a power level of only five, and even that had felt beneath him.

"You may not understand how terrifying I am, idiot. My power level is 1,500! Forget killing you—even slaughtering every person on this planet would be effortless," Raditz said, looking at Lin Yuan mockingly.

Lin Yuan did not care. "Oh? Since you're so strong, do you dare let me have one move? If you're still standing after that one move, I'll let you do whatever you want with me!"

"Sure, I'll let you have one move... If—"

Bang!

Lin Yuan flashed in front of Raditz at incredible speed and drove a fist straight into his chest.

Before Raditz could finish speaking, his vision went black, and he completely lost consciousness.

The last thing he saw before dying was the terrifying number displayed on his scouter.

Power Level: 9500!!

Ignoring Goku and Piccolo's stunned expressions, Lin Yuan checked the system panel.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations, Host, for completing Mission 11: Defeat the Saiyan Raditz. Mission reward obtained: Power Level +1000, Bloodline Progress Bar +5%."

He checked his character panel.

Lin Yuan

Race: Human

Power Level: 10500

Abilities: Instant Transmission, Kaio-ken

Realm (God): 0

Missions:

Perfect Super Saiyan Bloodline Progress: 65%

Mission 12: Defeat the Saiyan Vegeta. Mission Reward: Power Level +1500, Bloodline Progress +5%.

A perfect conclusion!

After dealing with Raditz, Goku rescued Gohan.

Lin Yuan, meanwhile, removed Raditz's scouter. Then, he used a Universal Capsule to store Raditz's spherical spaceship.

Bulma's Gravity Chamber research was currently stuck at fifty times gravity. With this alien spaceship as research material, gravity technology should be able to make significant breakthroughs.

At the same time, he would give the scouter to Bulma and have her remove the listening and tracking devices inside. Then she could make a reverse-tracking device, allowing him to learn the whereabouts of Vegeta and the others.

Afterward, Lin Yuan deliberately chatted with Goku and the others about the Dragon Balls, intending for Vegeta and Nappa on the other end of the scouter to hear it.

That way, those two would not simply ignore Raditz and give up on coming to Earth.

After saying that, Lin Yuan put the scouter into the capsule and said solemnly, "According to what I learned from King Kai, that Saiyan just now has two even more powerful companions."

"W-What?"

Goku and Piccolo were both startled.

"That scouter just now had listening and tracking devices on it. They already know their companion was killed, and they've probably locked onto Earth. In about a year, they'll arrive on Earth!" Lin Yuan continued.

"So that means two even stronger enemies will come to Earth in a year?" Goku frowned slightly. One year... it probably wouldn't be enough.

"Goku, I know a place where there's a god called King Kai. If you train under him, you can become stronger quickly."

Lin Yuan looked at Goku, then turned to Piccolo.

"Piccolo, you probably can't go. Goku saved the world, so he can. But you don't have enough good karma..."

Piccolo's karma was not merely insufficient at the moment—it was downright negative.

Piccolo looked somewhat disappointed after hearing that, but his expression quickly turned cold again.

"Hmph. I don't need to go to a place like that to defeat Son Goku."

Looking at Piccolo's prideful face, Lin Yuan felt a little helpless. He obviously wanted to go, didn't he?

It wasn't that Lin Yuan didn't want to take Piccolo there; he truly couldn't.

With Lin Yuan's current strength, he could barely teleport one person to King Kai's Planet. Asking him to bring someone along was definitely impossible. So if Goku wanted to go, he could only ask Kami to plead with King Yemma and let him travel Snake Way himself.

That method definitely wouldn't work for Piccolo, but Lin Yuan could teach him the Kaio-ken instead. As for whether he could learn it, Lin Yuan really couldn't guarantee anything.

The Kaio-ken was a strange thing. With his current power level of ten thousand, Lin Yuan could barely use the twofold version.

After training for a long time, Lin Yuan had discovered that the tougher one's body was, the higher the multiplier they could train to use.

With an Earthling's physique like his, using tenfold or twentyfold was simply impossible.

If Goku, with a power level of three million, could use twentyfold, then even at three million power, Lin Yuan could at most use fivefold or eightfold. Otherwise, his body might explode and kill him on the spot.

After Goku got past Chi-Chi's objections, Lin Yuan brought him to Kami's Lookout and explained his purpose to Kami.

Then, using the promise of teaching Piccolo the Kaio-ken as bait, he asked Piccolo for a favor: to train his biological son—Gohan.
