Not long after Frieza finished speaking, a youth with a sword on his back, wearing a dark blue jacket and sporting white-purple hair, stood before him.
"What do you want, Earthling?" Frieza asked as he looked at the newcomer, not taking him seriously at all.
"I came here specifically to kill all of you," the youth said confidently, a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"What did you just say?" King Cold could not believe his ears.
"I already said it. I came to kill all of you," the youth replied, his gaze sharp and his voice cold.
"He said he came to kill us! Father, you heard him too," Frieza said. He and King Cold laughed before continuing, "They say ignorance is bliss."
"Of course I know. Your name is Frieza, right?"
"There's no need to be so surprised. I know everything you've done," the youth continued under Frieza's astonished gaze.
"What an honor. I never thought my great name would spread even to such a remote corner of the galaxy."
"But unfortunately, it seems you don't know that I'm the strongest in the entire universe!" Frieza declared confidently.
"I also know that you'll die here," the youth said, enraging Frieza.
"Say whatever you like. Take care of him, and the rest of you, go kill every Earthling," Frieza ordered the soldiers beside him.
The youth stopped everyone and declared that they would all die here. After drawing his sword and slaughtering all the small fry, he looked toward Frieza.
"You've got some skill," Frieza said at last, finally giving the youth a proper look.
"The next ones to die will be you two," the youth told Frieza and his father.
"What a big mouth. Frieza, did you hear that? This guy really seems to think he can kill the two of us," King Cold teased Frieza.
"What an overconfident fool," Frieza said with a laugh.
"Let me tell you something. Guys who get carried away just because they have a little strength usually die faster." Frieza wagged a finger.
"Are you talking about yourself?"
"What?"
"You were beaten into such a pathetic state, yet you still had the nerve to come all the way to Earth to die," the youth shot back.
"You insolent brat. Father, it seems I'll have to teach him a lesson," Frieza said as he looked at King Cold.
"Let me be honest with you! I'll kill both of you in an instant," the youth coldly retorted.
After another round of trash talk, the youth transformed into a Super Saiyan, frightening Frieza into repeatedly backing away. Frieza fired an energy blast at him, successfully proving that the smoke-cleared-with-no-damage rule held true.
Watching from a distance, Ye Bai felt that this was dragging on forever. Seeing that the youth intended to keep going, he reluctantly appeared before Frieza and King Cold, stretched out both hands, and condensed two blue-black energy spheres. They instantly expanded and engulfed the father and son.
The energy spheres immediately left Earth and flew into space. Only after they were far away from Earth did two explosions ring out, causing everyone on the planet to throw themselves to the ground.
Ye Bai walked up to the youth and told him not to drag things out before a fight next time. Once he had confirmed someone was an enemy, he should send them on their way immediately. He also said that Goku would be arriving soon.
Just as Ye Bai finished speaking, Goku and Vegeta appeared behind him. Ye Bai turned around, greeted them both, then flew over and landed in front of Krillin and the others.
At that moment, Bulma ran over, grabbed Ye Bai's clothes, and asked, "Xiaobai, why have you been avoiding me?"
Ye Bai really had been avoiding her. Although Bulma was great, she had a few minor issues. Compared with her, Ye Bai preferred Android 18, and he wanted them both—but he did not think Bulma was the kind of person who could accept that.
Thinking of this, Ye Bai decisively took Bulma aside and said, "Bulma, I'm not the good man you think I am. I'm quite a womanizer."
"I don't believe you. You're just trying to avoid me. Krillin and the others all said no girls have ever appeared around you."
"That's because they never saw them." Ye Bai decided to be shameless about it. He had to make it clear now; if she refused to believe him, she could not blame him later.
"I don't believe you. Come shopping with me in West City today. It's been a long time since we went shopping together. If you won't come with me, I'll be really sad. Can you bear to see me sad?" Bulma still looked unconvinced as she resorted to playing the pity card.
"Fine, fine, I'll go shopping with you. But don't blame me if you regret it later," Ye Bai warned her in advance.
"That's great! Xiaobai, you're the best!" As if she had not heard the rest at all, Bulma immediately pounced on him and wrapped herself around his arm. Ye Bai had no way to deal with her, so he simply let her do as she pleased.
Meanwhile, Future Trunks saw that his mother in this timeline had left with an unfamiliar man, and they looked very intimate. However, he did not think too much about it. He first sparred with Goku, then explained why he had come, only saying that he was Vegeta's son.
"What? You're saying you're Vegeta's child?" Goku shouted in surprise.
Trunks continued explaining and gave Goku a bottle of special medicine. But after Goku processed everything and learned that Trunks's mother was actually Bulma, he said in confusion, "I thought Bulma would marry Xiaobai. After all, she's been chasing Xiaobai for a long time."
"Xiaobai? Is the Xiaobai you mentioned, Mr. Goku, that person from earlier?" Trunks's expression changed drastically.
"Yes, that's him. This world is different from the world you came from. A lot of changes happened—for example, me."
"And even if you go back to the past, you can't change your own timeline. Your world will only become another dimension," Ye Bai said as he appeared beside the two of them.
"Xiaobai, how do you know that?" Goku asked in confusion.
"Idiot, didn't I tell you a long time ago that I'm not from this world? Just think of me as someone from the future too." After saying that, Ye Bai turned and left.
"Trunks, come train with me too. Once you've finished training, you can return to the future and take care of the Androids," Ye Bai said, stopping in his tracks.
"Yeah, Trunks, train with Xiaobai. He's really strong—even I can't beat him," Goku added.
"But, huh?" Trunks suddenly noticed the tail wrapped around Ye Bai's waist. "Mr. Ye Bai, are you a Saiyan too?"
"More or less. Come on, enough with the buts. I need to go shopping with your mother from this timeline first, then I'll take you to train." Ye Bai did not linger after saying that and walked toward Bulma.
Trunks hesitated for a moment before following. The three of them boarded Bulma's aircraft and left first, leaving Goku to answer everyone's questions. Fortunately, Piccolo, whose face had turned greener after hearing the entire conversation, helped explain things to everyone as well.
Everyone was shocked by what they heard and declared that they would train even harder over the next three years. Meanwhile, Ye Bai followed Bulma to a large supermarket and accompanied her shopping. Fortunately, he now had a free laborer, so he did not have to carry the bags himself.
