Warship Descends! 800 Power Captain Attacks, Power Surges to 1500!

The cave was quiet and warm. The faint smell of blood lingering in the air had long since been scattered by the mountain breeze. Ximen Qing sat on soft hay, a faint golden aura swirling around him as he closed his eyes and focused completely on the surging power within him—his 1,200 combat power slowly circulated through his meridians; the stirring of his innate talent, "Power Amplification"; the hidden boost of his passive skill, "Damage Reflection"; and the sharpened sensitivity of his enhanced Advanced Ki Sense. Every part of it made him feel stronger than ever before.

Grandpa Gohan sat beside him, guarding him carefully, his eyes full of reverence and affection. From time to time, he gently wiped away dust drifting in through the cave entrance, afraid of disturbing the little "God of War" as he rested. The sight of Ximen Qing instantly killing that scout with 500 combat power still echoed in his mind—the devastating Ki Cannon, and Ximen Qing's arrogant, domineering figure, had already been deeply imprinted in his heart.

A moment later, Ximen Qing abruptly opened his eyes. A flash of golden light passed through them, and an arrogant smile curled across his lips. His soft childish voice brimmed with excitement. "Great! I've finally fully mastered my new abilities! Once I activate Power Amplification, my combat power can shoot straight up to 1,320. And with Damage Reflection, even if I get attacked, I can make my enemies suffer the consequences!"

As he spoke, a thought flashed through his mind, and he quietly activated his innate talent, "Power Amplification"—in an instant, even more formidable power erupted from within him. The golden aura around him grew denser, and his combat power soared directly from 1,200 to 1,320. Even the air in the cave was stirred by that force, forming small waves of air that made the hay sway gently.

Grandpa Gohan was startled by the sudden burst of power and instinctively stepped back. Shock filled his face once more as he muttered, "Th-this is his new ability? His combat power got stronger again... How terrifying..."

Ximen Qing proudly raised his little head. His body flashed, and he instantly shot to the entrance of the cave. Using Advanced Ki Sense, he extended his perception in every direction—everything within 1,500 meters was crystal clear. The rustling of leaves in the wind, the faint breathing of distant beasts, even the movement of insects crawling beneath the ground—nothing could escape his senses. Yet he still detected no dangerous aura.

"What a pity. If only some enemies came to deliver experience, I could test the combined power of Power Amplification and Ki Cannon. I might even be able to push straight to 1,500 combat power!" Ximen Qing pouted, his tone full of regret, while secretly looking forward to the arrival of the next wave of enemies.

But just as his words fell, his enhanced Advanced Ki Sense suddenly caught an incredibly powerful, massive aura rapidly approaching from high in the sky—this aura far surpassed every enemy he had faced before. It carried cold killing intent and a dense Saiyan aura. And there was more than one—there were five! One aura was especially powerful, at roughly 800 combat power, while the remaining four ranged from 400 to 500. They were drawing closer and closer, reaching the edge of his 1,500-meter detection range in mere moments!

"Hm? They're here! And it's a whole group!" Ximen Qing's eyes instantly turned cold and sharp, the regret on his face immediately replaced by intense excitement. "An expert with 800 combat power, plus four elite warriors with 400 to 500 combat power! Looks like that scout's companions have arrived. They even brought a battleship—what a gift package delivered right to my door!"

[Ding! Notice: An elite Saiyan battleship has been detected arriving. The enemy has a total of 5 members (1 elite captain + 4 elite warriors), with combat power of 800, 420, 450, 480, and 500 respectively. They belong to the Saiyan Tribe elite squad and intend to kill the host and bring the host back to the tribe. Host, prepare for battle immediately!]

The system prompt sounded at just the right moment. Ximen Qing's eyes lit up, and his aura instantly thickened as he released all 1,200 points of his combat power without restraint. A terrifyingly powerful pressure spread toward the direction the aerial auras were coming from. "Perfect timing! I can test the power of Power Amplification plus Ki Cannon! I'll instantly kill all of you, earn a huge wave of experience, and charge straight for 1,500 combat power!"

Hearing Ximen Qing's words and feeling the pressure erupting from him, Grandpa Gohan's face instantly turned pale. He hurried to Ximen Qing's side and said anxiously, "Ximen Qing, this is bad! Are enemies coming again? And are they very strong? We... we should hurry and hide!"

"Hide from what?" Ximen Qing patted Grandpa Gohan's hand, his face full of dominance and his tone unwavering. "It's just a captain with 800 combat power and four little lackeys. Even if they brought a battleship, I can kill them easily! Grandpa Gohan, just wait in the cave and watch how I deal with them. I'll show you how powerful Power Amplification plus Ki Cannon really is!"

After saying that, he no longer hesitated. Activating Advanced Ki Sense, his small body flashed and instantly shot into the sky. He hovered in midair, his gaze fixed firmly on the distance—there, a massive silver battleship was slowly flying toward them. Dense Saiyan Tribe patterns were carved across its surface, which gleamed with a cold metallic sheen. A fierce aura surrounded it, while the cannons along its hull faintly glowed red, giving off an intimidating presence.

The battleship slowly descended, finally stopping in an open clearing not far from the cave. With a thunderous boom, the ground trembled slightly and dust billowed into the air. Then, the battleship's hatch slowly opened, and five tall figures stepped out in succession. Fierce auras surrounded them, their gazes filled with coldness and killing intent as they locked onto Ximen Qing in the air.

The figure at the very front was the most imposing. He stood about two and a half meters tall, dressed in a black elite combat uniform embroidered with golden Saiyan Tribe patterns. A silver badge hung on his chest, the mark of a Saiyan elite captain. His face was fierce, a long scar stretched across his forehead, and his gaze was as cold as a blade. His aura was the strongest among them, his combat power exactly 800—he was Locke, an elite captain of the Saiyan Tribe. With 800 combat power, he excelled in group combat and powerful attacks. He was one of the tribe's top experts and the person in charge of this mission to Earth to capture Ximen Qing.

Behind Locke followed four elite warriors, all of them similarly broad and muscular. They wore black combat uniforms and masks that covered their faces, revealing only pairs of icy eyes. Their combat power was 420, 450, 480, and 500 respectively. Every one of them was comparable to the scout Kalen whom Ximen Qing had instantly killed earlier, and two of them were even stronger!

Locke looked up, his gaze fixed tightly on Ximen Qing in midair. His eyes held shock, wariness, and a faint trace of doubt that was difficult to detect. His voice was cold and murderous. "So it was you? This infant killed my subordinate Kalen and wiped out Batu's scouting squad? I never expected an infant to possess 1,200 combat power and unlock so many powerful abilities. You truly are an innate Saiyan!"

While aboard the battleship, he had already detected Ximen Qing's combat power through the scanner. When the device displayed 1,200 combat power, he had been completely stunned—he had never imagined that an infant could possess such frightening power. Even a genius of the Saiyan Tribe could never reach such a level during infancy!

"So what if I did?" Ximen Qing hovered in the air, his eyes full of icy arrogance. His soft childish voice carried a fierce killing intent. "I killed Kalen and Batu. Who told them to provoke me? Who told them to investigate me? Today, you'll be no different. Since you came, don't even think about leaving alive. You'll all accompany them in death and become stepping stones for my rise in combat power!"

"You arrogant little thing!" Upon hearing this, the wariness in Locke's eyes was instantly replaced by blazing rage. His aura grew denser as he released all 800 points of his combat power. A powerful pressure crashed down toward Ximen Qing. "Even if you have 1,200 combat power and powerful abilities, you're still just an infant! You have no idea how to properly use the power of Power Amplification! I'm an elite captain with 800 combat power, and I have four elite warriors at my command. Today, I'll make sure you die without a burial place, capture you, bring you back to the tribe, and hand you over to the chief!"

In his view, while Ximen Qing possessed formidable combat power and had unlocked Power Amplification and Damage Reflection, he was ultimately just an infant. The duration of Power Amplification was short, and Ki Cannon consumed an enormous amount of aura. As long as he and the four elite warriors worked together, attacking in turns to exhaust Ximen Qing's aura and wait out Power Amplification's duration, they could easily capture him. Even if they could not kill him, they could still severely injure him!

After saying that, Locke turned to the four elite warriors behind him and issued a cold command. "Brothers, attack together! Take turns attacking him and drain his aura! Don't give him any opportunity to gather a Ki Cannon. Even if he has Damage Reflection, we have nothing to fear. Whoever helps capture him will be richly rewarded!"

"Yes, Captain!" the four elite warriors answered in unison, their voices resolute. Their auras instantly thickened as they released all of their combat power—420, 450, 480, and 500—and rushed toward Ximen Qing at high speed. Their roles were clearly divided: two attacked from the front while two tried to ambush him from the sides, intending to give Ximen Qing no chance to gather a Ki Cannon!

"Oh? You actually want to attack in turns and drain my aura? Not a bad plan. Unfortunately, you're too weak!" Ximen Qing sneered, his eyes filled with disdain and not the least bit of panic. With a thought, he instantly activated his innate talent, "Power Amplification"—a formidable force erupted from within him, and his combat power surged directly from 1,200 to 1,320. The golden aura around him became even denser as a pressure more powerful than before crashed down on the four elite warriors!

"Since you want to die so badly, don't blame me for showing no mercy!" Ximen Qing roared, his soft childish voice brimming with killing intent. Advanced Ki Sense operated at full force as the aura around him flowed endlessly toward his palm. In an instant, it condensed into a white cannon blast thicker and more powerful than before. Dazzling golden light coiled around its surface, and it contained destructive force capable of shattering the heavens—this was a Ki Cannon enhanced by Power Amplification, several times stronger than when he had used it at full power before!

"Ki Cannon, Area Bombardment! Die!"

Ximen Qing raised his hand and fiercely fired the Ki Cannon from his palm! The golden-glowing white Ki Cannon tore through the air with a shriek, shooting out in an instant. The air along its path was forcibly gouged into a deep trench, while broken stones and wild grass were swept into the air by the powerful wind. A horrifying pressure immediately enveloped all four elite warriors charging toward him!

The faces of the four elite warriors changed drastically. Their pupils contracted to pinpoints, and the killing intent in their eyes was instantly replaced by utter terror! They had never expected Ximen Qing to activate Power Amplification so quickly, nor had they imagined that he could gather a Ki Cannon at such speed. Worse still, its power far exceeded what they could withstand—even if all four worked together, there was no way they could avoid this attack!

They instinctively wanted to stop and turn away, but the Ki Cannon was too fast and its pressure too overwhelming. Their bodies seemed frozen in place, their limbs stiff, without even the strength to raise their hands in defense. They could only watch helplessly as the golden-glowing Ki Cannon, carrying heaven-destroying power, smashed toward them!

"BOOM—!!!"

A deafening explosion shook the heavens and earth as the Power Amplification-enhanced Ki Cannon slammed into the four elite warriors. An incomparably powerful force exploded at once, forming a huge golden shockwave that swept outward in every direction. Ancient trees nearby were uprooted by the blast, and a massive crater was smashed into the ground. Rubble, wood chips, and blood filled the sky, blotting out the sun as the entire clearing was instantly reduced to ruins!

The four elite warriors did not even have time to cry out in agony before their huge bodies were swallowed by the power of the Ki Cannon and blasted into fragments. The elite warriors with combat power of 420, 450, 480, and 500 had not even the slightest chance to struggle before they were utterly annihilated. Even the fragments of their combat uniforms were swept away without a trace by the shockwave—one area-effect Ki Cannon had instantly killed all four elite warriors. It was a complete crushing defeat, with no chance to fight back!

Inside the cave, Grandpa Gohan was struck hard by the terrifying shockwave. The cave walls trembled faintly, and bits of rock rained down. He covered his ears tightly and curled up in a corner, his face filled with overwhelming shock and lingering fear. He kept muttering, "Terrifying... It's too terrifying... Is this the power of Power Amplification plus Ki Cannon? Four powerful enemies were instantly killed in one move..."

Meanwhile, Locke's face instantly turned as pale as paper. His pupils contracted to their limit, his entire body stiffened, and he involuntarily staggered two steps back. The anger in his eyes was immediately replaced by extreme shock and wariness, with even a trace of fear he could not conceal—he had never expected Ximen Qing's Ki Cannon to be this powerful!

He had originally thought that even if the four elite warriors could not defeat Ximen Qing, they could at least hold him off for a while and exhaust his aura and Power Amplification duration. But he had never imagined that Ximen Qing would instantly kill all four elite warriors with a single move—and it had been an area attack at that. This power had already far surpassed what he could endure!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for killing 4 Saiyan elite warriors (combat power: 420, 450, 480, 500). You have received a massive experience reward. Combat power +280 (current combat power: 1480)!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for skillfully using the Power Amplification + Ki Cannon combo. Power Amplification proficiency has increased, and its cooldown has been reduced to 40 minutes!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for instantly killing multiple high-combat-power enemies at once. Ki Cannon proficiency has increased again (current: Beginner → Intermediate). Aura consumption has been reduced by another 10%, and area attack power has increased significantly!]

The system prompts rang out in rapid succession. A powerful warm current instantly burst forth from within Ximen Qing, and his combat power soared all the way from 1,320 to 1,480—just 20 points short of 1,500! He could clearly feel that the Ki Cannon had grown stronger while consuming less aura, and Power Amplification's cooldown had also shortened. His strength had improved significantly once again!

"Awesome! This is amazing!" Ximen Qing floated in midair, waving his little hands excitedly. The golden aura around him grew even denser as he released all 1,480 points of his combat power. A pressure stronger than before crashed fiercely down on Locke. His soft childish voice was full of arrogance and dominance. "Four little lackeys, killed in one move! My combat power has reached 1,480—just 20 more points until I break through 1,500! Locke, now it's your turn!"

He looked down at Locke, whose face was pale and whose eyes were filled with fear, and curled his lips in a disdainful smile. "What? Are you scared now? Weren't you acting so arrogantly just now? Didn't you say you'd make sure I died without a burial place and capture me to take back to the tribe? Now all four of your subordinates are dead. You're the only one left. Let's see how you can keep acting arrogant!"

It took Locke quite a while to barely steady himself. He raised his head and stared fixedly at Ximen Qing. His eyes were full of fear, wariness, and a trace of unwillingness he could not hide. His voice trembled slightly, though he still forced himself to sound composed. "Y-you arrogant little thing! Even if you killed my four subordinates, even if your combat power has reached 1,480, don't get too full of yourself! I'm an elite captain with 800 combat power, skilled in group combat, and I possess a powerful finishing move. Even if I'm alone, I can still fight you!"

Though he said that, he had long since lost all confidence inside—Ximen Qing's strength was simply too terrifying. He had instantly killed four elite warriors with over 400 combat power in a single move. Even if Locke gave everything he had, he could not possibly be Ximen Qing's match. But he was an elite captain of the Saiyan Tribe. If he fled back in such disgrace, the chief would certainly execute him upon his return. Rather than being executed by the chief, he might as well fight Ximen Qing here. Perhaps there was still a sliver of hope for survival!

After saying that, Locke no longer hesitated. He activated the 800 combat power within him, and the black aura around him instantly thickened like fog. His body flashed, moving at incredible speed as he charged toward Ximen Qing. At the same time, he clenched his fist and gathered all 800 points of his combat power into it. Dense black aura wrapped around his fist as it smashed violently toward Ximen Qing's chest with powerful killing intent—this punch was his finishing move, Black Wind Fist. Its power was enough to shatter a massive boulder and even severely injure an elite warrior with 500 combat power!

"Oh? You still dare to attack me first? You've got some backbone. Unfortunately, you're too weak!" Ximen Qing sneered, his eyes full of contempt, with no intention of dodging. "You think a finishing move backed by 800 combat power is enough to act arrogant in front of me? Today, I'll use you to make up those last 20 experience points and break through 1,500 combat power. While I'm at it, I'll test the power of Intermediate Ki Cannon, so you can die knowing exactly why!"

As his words fell, Ximen Qing's thoughts shifted. Advanced Ki Sense operated at full force as the aura around him poured ceaselessly into his palm. In an instant, it condensed into a white cannon blast even thicker and more powerful than before. Dazzling golden light coiled around it, mixed with a faint trace of black aura—this was an Intermediate Ki Cannon, a full-powered strike enhanced by Power Amplification. Its force was several times greater than the previous area attack!

"Intermediate Ki Cannon, Full-Power Bombardment! Die!"

Ximen Qing roared and raised his hand, fiercely smashing the Intermediate Ki Cannon in his palm toward Locke's fist. He intended to meet Locke's finishing move head-on, instantly kill him in a single blow, and break through 1,500 combat power!

The moment Locke saw the Intermediate Ki Cannon Ximen Qing had gathered, his face turned as white as paper. He was so terrified that his soul nearly left his body. He could clearly feel that this Ki Cannon was far more powerful than the one that had instantly killed the four elite warriors. If it struck him head-on, he would likely be blasted into dust in an instant, leaving not even the slightest trace behind!

He instinctively tried to pull back his fist and turn aside, but it was already too late—the Intermediate Ki Cannon was far faster than he had imagined. His fist had already swung into midair, leaving him no time to retract it. He could only watch helplessly as the golden Intermediate Ki Cannon, carrying world-destroying power, smashed fiercely into his fist!

"Bang—!!!"

An earth-shattering blast, louder than any before it, instantly echoed through the entire mountain range. Golden and black power exploded violently at the point of impact, and an overwhelmingly terrifying shockwave swept madly outward. The ground was gouged with deep ravines, distant ancient trees were snapped in half and uprooted by the blast, and even the massive Saiyan elite warship was struck hard. Its hull shook violently, fine cracks spread across its surface, and the red glow from its cannons instantly dimmed!

Locke felt an irresistible, overwhelming force surge from his fist through his entire body. His bones cracked as though they were about to be pulverized completely. He let out an utterly miserable scream, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his huge body flew straight backward like a kite with its string cut. He slammed viciously into a distant cliffside. With a rumbling crash, the cliff collapsed, rocks cascaded down, and his body was completely buried beneath the rubble!

Locke, the Saiyan elite captain with a power level of 800, had unleashed his all-out killing move, the Black Wind Fist—but before Ximen Qing's Intermediate Ki Cannon, it was utterly worthless! After just one head-on clash, he was grievously wounded and sent flying, without even a chance to struggle. His presence vanished completely—he had been crushed from start to finish, unable to fight back at all. No matter how desperately he gave it his all, he was ultimately nothing more than a stepping stone for Ximen Qing's breakthrough in power!

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing Saiyan elite captain Locke (Power Level: 800). You have received a massive EXP reward. Power Level +70 (Current Power Level: 1550)! ]

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for surpassing a Power Level of 1500. Saiyan innate talent advancement unlocked—Full Power Amplification (During battle, Power Level temporarily increases by 20% for 8 minutes. Cooldown: 30 minutes)! ]

[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for completely annihilating the Saiyan elite squad (5 members total), completing the hidden achievement—Earth Cleaner (Intermediate)! ]

[ Ding! Hidden achievement reward distributed: Power Level +100 (Current Power Level: 1650). Advanced move advancement unlocked—Super Ki Cannon (Condenses an enormous amount of ki into a gigantic cannon blast. Its power is 3 times that of the Intermediate Ki Cannon. It can instantly destroy a large area and kill multiple high-Power-Level enemies)! ]

[ Ding! Detected that the host has damaged the Saiyan elite warship (partially damaged). Additional reward received: Ki recovery speed increased by 30%. Basic warship analysis ability unlocked (Can view information on low-level and intermediate-level Saiyan warships)! ]

A dense stream of system notifications rang out. A warm current, far more intense than before, instantly erupted from within Ximen Qing and surged through every cell in his body. An unparalleled sense of comfort filled his limbs and bones, while the power within him soared like an erupting volcano, rising all the way from 1480 to 1650—a full increase of 170 points and a direct leap forward!

At the same time, Ximen Qing could clearly feel his innate talent had advanced. Full Power Amplification had become vastly more effective, with a longer duration and shorter cooldown. The terrifying power of the Super Ki Cannon flowed through his mind; with a mere thought, he could condense a gigantic blast capable of destroying the world. His ki recovery speed had increased as well, so he no longer had to worry about exhausting his ki too quickly, and the warship analysis ability gave him another layer of security!

"Awesome! This is so awesome!" Ximen Qing excitedly did several somersaults in midair. The golden ki surrounding him grew denser and more dazzling as his Power Level of 1650 erupted without reservation. An incomparably fearsome pressure spread outward, making the entire mountain range seem to tremble beneath it. The distant beasts had long since fled in terror, not daring to leave behind even the faintest sound of breathing!

He looked down at Locke, buried beneath the rubble, then at the elite warship that was on the verge of collapse. An extremely arrogant grin curled across his lips, and his soft, childish voice overflowed with dominance. "An elite captain with a Power Level of 800? That's all he was! One Intermediate Ki Cannon took him out instantly, my Power Level shot straight up to 1650, and I unlocked an advanced talent and the Super Ki Cannon. This haul was insanely profitable!"

"Frieza, Cell, Buu, just you wait!" Ximen Qing raised his little head and looked toward the sky, his eyes filled with arrogance and anticipation. "I'm already at 1650 Power Level now, and I've got the Super Ki Cannon! Once I farm another round of EXP and raise my power even higher, I'll come settle the score with you. I'll grind every one of you into the ground and let you taste the power of the Super Ki Cannon. I'll show you who the strongest Saiyan in the universe is, and who the true overlord of the universe is!"

Inside the cave, Grandpa Gohan took quite a while before he could barely crawl up from the corner. He dusted himself off and stared at the golden-glowing, smug Ximen Qing floating in midair, then at the enormous crater outside, the shattered ancient trees, and the warship swaying on the verge of collapse. The shock on his face was beyond words, and he kept muttering, "1650 Power Level... Super Ki Cannon... too terrifying... it's truly too terrifying... Ximen Qing, you're practically a god—a god of war who can do anything..."

He was completely numb by now. The shock Ximen Qing gave him had grown stronger each time—from instantly killing the Black Wind Bear, to wiping out the scout squad and elite spies, to now instantly killing an elite captain with a Power Level of 800, damaging an elite warship, and soaring to a Power Level of 1650. This tiny baby possessed a level of strength beyond anything he could imagine. In his heart, Ximen Qing was no longer a baby, but a god of war capable of protecting him and this mountain range!

Ximen Qing smiled and activated Advanced Ki Sense. His tiny body flashed, and in an instant, he reached the cave entrance and landed before Grandpa Gohan. The arrogance on his face softened somewhat. "Grandpa Gohan, I'm fine, so don't be scared! I already took out all the enemies, and I wrecked their warship too. From now on, we won't have to fear Saiyan scouts anymore!"

Grandpa Gohan hurriedly crouched down and carefully stroked Ximen Qing's little head. His eyes were full of reverence and affection, and his voice brimmed with emotion. "Good! Good! As long as you're all right! As long as you're all right! Ximen Qing, you're amazing. Grandpa is proud of you! With you here, Grandpa isn't afraid of anything!"

Ximen Qing proudly raised his little head and patted his chest. "Of course! As long as I'm here, no one will dare bully us! Grandpa Gohan, let's go check out that warship first. Maybe we can find something useful. And while we're at it, I can test my Super Ki Cannon and see if I can destroy it completely for another round of rewards!"

"Good! Good! Grandpa will go with you!" Grandpa Gohan nodded repeatedly and followed closely behind Ximen Qing, his eyes full of anticipation—he could hardly wait to witness the power of the Super Ki Cannon and see just how terrifying a move three times stronger than the Intermediate Ki Cannon truly was!

Ximen Qing smiled and took small steps toward the elite warship. A faint golden glow shimmered around him, his Power Level of 1650 subtly radiating outward, and his eyes were full of excitement and anticipation. But what he did not know was that on the Saiyan Tribe's home planet, a figure with a Power Level of 1500 was staring fixedly at the detector in his hand. His eyes were filled with icy killing intent, and the ki around him became extraordinarily violent!

"Locke's squad has gone missing! The warship has been damaged! Locke, with a Power Level of 800, along with four elite warriors, were all killed by that innate Saiyan?!" The figure roared, his voice full of rage and disbelief. "1650 Power Level?! A baby actually reached such heights in such a short time?! Good! What an innate Saiyan! It seems I'll have to go to Earth myself, tear that little thing to pieces to avenge Locke's squad, then bring him back to the tribe and hand him over to the chief for judgment!"
