The one standing on the left was a short man with pale green skin. He had no ears, but there was a large eye where each ear should have been.

His name was Guldo, a member of the Ginyu Force. He possessed psychic powers that allowed him to control time and space. He could stop time for as long as he held his breath, and he could also prevent his opponents from moving.

However, his combat power was the weakest among the five.

Standing to Guldo's right was a tall man with a red pineapple-shaped hairstyle.

The man was named Recoome, and he was also a member of the Ginyu Force.

To Recoome's right stood a tall, burly man with purple skin and a pair of long black spikes growing from his head.

He was Ginyu of the Ginyu Force.

Standing to Ginyu's right was a medium-built man with red skin and long hair.

His name was Jeice, the vice-captain of the Ginyu Force.

Standing at the far right was a tall man with blue skin, a round head, and what looked like a lid on top of it.

His name was Burter, and he was the tallest member of the Ginyu Force.

"Th-The Ginyu Force, just as I thought!"

The moment Raditz saw the five of them, he immediately began trembling.

Vegeta snorted coldly at the sight, his face filled with disdain.

Just then, the five of them flew out of the crater their spaceship had made and landed on the ground.

"Vegeta, you really have betrayed Lord Frieza!"

Seeing that the three had already been waiting for them, Ginyu smiled.

Like Dodoria and the others, the Ginyu Force did not get along with Vegeta and his group.

So when Ginyu and the others heard that they could kill Vegeta, they were thrilled.

Vegeta immediately laughed upon hearing this.

"Ginyu, haven't you gotten something wrong?"

"Gotten something wrong?"

Ginyu asked doubtfully.

"I'm not like you. Frieza and I merely have an employment relationship. I'm not his subordinate!"

Ginyu immediately laughed when he heard that.

"So that's how it is. You've long harbored treacherous intentions. In that case, today I'll clean up this traitor for Lord Frieza!

But... before I kill you, there's something I want to confirm! Whose hands did Dodoria and Zarbon die by?"

"Isn't that obvious? The two of them died by my hand!"

Vegeta said with a smile.

"No, impossible. The gap in strength between you and them is far too great. I think it must have been those other two Saiyans, right?"

Vegeta narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.

"Looks like those combat power detectors really do have listening devices!"

Ginyu immediately laughed.

"Looks like I guessed right. Then, Vegeta, where are the other two Saiyans? If you tell me, I can leave you with an intact corpse!"

"Hmph!"

Vegeta snorted coldly.

"That's what I should be saying to you!"

"Is that so? Then I'll just have to kill you first and find those two afterward!"

Just then, two figures suddenly appeared.

They were none other than Son Goku and Roger.

"You two are the other Saiyans who were lucky enough to survive?"

Son Goku nodded slightly.

"Then which of you killed Dodoria and Zarbon?"

"Goku and I each killed one."

Roger said.

"Is that so? Looks like this is far more interesting than I imagined!"

"Ginyu Force, battle poses!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Upon hearing this, Jeice and the others immediately spread out to either side and began marching in place shoulder to shoulder. (Thump thump thump music)

Son Goku and the others were stunned when they saw this.

Just then, Guldo shouted, planted one foot on the ground, and struck a crane-standing pose.

"Ginyu Force, Guldo!"

As soon as Guldo finished, Recoome immediately shouted. He bent his left leg downward, stood on his right leg, and raised both hands toward the upper right.

"Ginyu Force, Recoome!"

After Recoome finished, Burter, standing on the right, bent his right leg downward, stood on his left leg, and raised both hands toward the upper left.

"Ginyu Force, Burter!"

Seeing this, Jeice forcefully swung the long white hair on his head toward the ground, crouched with both feet planted, and spread his arms like a great bird taking flight.

"Ginyu Force, Jeice!"

After watching them, Ginyu spun around, lowered his head beneath his crotch, and struck a seemingly ridiculous pose.

Then he swiftly spun back around and said, "Ginyu Force, Ginyu!"

"We are the Ginyu Force!"

The five of them shouted in unison.

As they spoke, Burter and Jeice immediately rose from the ground and posed with both hands raised toward the upper left. Guldo lowered his raised left foot and, together with Recoome, posed with both hands toward the upper right.

Meanwhile, Ginyu stood before the other four, crouching with both feet on the ground and placing his hands at sixty-degree angles toward the ground on either side.

Burter, Jeice, and Guldo were all a little red-faced from making such embarrassing poses.

Ginyu had forced them to do these battle poses. It was not as though they wanted to perform such embarrassing moves.

Just then, Ginyu stood up from the ground.

Seeing this, Burter and the others withdrew their hands.

"Very good. Everyone coordinated well for this Ginyu Force battle pose. We'll do it like this next time too!"

Ginyu praised the four of them.

The four nodded.

"Next time?"

Vegeta immediately laughed when he heard that.

"I'm afraid there won't be a next time for you. Because all of you are going to die here today!"

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing this, Jeice clenched his fists tightly and glared furiously at Vegeta.

After hearing Vegeta's arrogant words, Ginyu, who stood nearby, did not look pleased either.

However, he knew Vegeta had always been cautious in his actions. Since he dared to act so arrogantly toward them now, he must have something to rely on.

"Jeice, use the scouter to check Vegeta's current battle power!"

"Yes, Captain Ginyu!"

As he spoke, Jeice immediately activated the scouter over his left eye.

"Beep beep..."

"...5000..."

"Five thousand? Strange, could the scouter be malfunctioning?"

Jeice stared at the number on the scouter, his face full of astonishment.

Vegeta had worked for the Frieza Army for so long that his battle power had long since become common knowledge within the Frieza Army.

"Five thousand?"

"Yes, Captain!"

"Then Recoome, check with your scouter."

"Yes, Captain!"

Upon hearing this, Recoome immediately activated the scouter over his left eye.

"Beep beep..."

"...5000..."

Recoome said, "Captain, my scouter is showing five thousand too!"

"What?!"

Ginyu was startled upon hearing this, and he secretly pondered, Could Vegeta's strength have declined? But that's impossible. Even if Vegeta had gotten weaker, there's no way he could have dropped this much!
