Li Wei explained, "I told him you worked for me, but Vegeta didn't believe it, so I called you over to prove it."

Upon hearing that, veins faintly bulged on Frieza's forehead. Yet he did not dare to lose his temper and could only glare hatefully at Vegeta. "Lord Li Wei, would you like me to straighten Vegeta out for you? I've picked up a few new tricks lately!"

At that.

Fear rose in Vegeta's heart, and his body began to tremble slightly!

Tap~

Son Goku stepped in front of Vegeta, pointed his thumb at himself, and smiled. "Frieza, what's so impressive about picking on Vegeta now? Why not have a match with me instead?"

"You really are troublesome, Lord Li Wei. May I teach this Saiyan monkey a lesson?" Frieza asked, turning to Li Wei.

After thinking for a moment, Li Wei nodded. "Then have a match. Frieza, remember to stop at the right time."

"Ho ho ho ho, please rest assured, Lord Li Wei. I'll control my strength and won't kill him," Frieza said with a cold laugh.

"Then I'll prepare a suitable stage for you." With a thought from Li Wei, the Meta Field unfolded!

The next second.

Everyone present was pulled into a world filled entirely with rocks and hills.

Looking at the suddenly changed scenery, Son Goku and Nappa were not too surprised. They assumed it was another transportation method similar to Instant Transmission.

Frieza had seen such a method before as well, so he was not particularly surprised.

But Vegeta, who was seeing this method for the first time, was utterly astonished. At that moment, he still believed he was on Namek and had no idea that he had already returned to Earth.

"There are no living beings here except us. You can fight to your hearts' content," Li Wei reminded them. Then, carrying Nappa and Vegeta, he flew into the distance and finally landed atop a hill.

"Vegeta, watch this battle carefully. It will broaden your horizons and make you understand just how insignificant you are right now," Li Wei said.

Vegeta secretly gritted his teeth, his gaze locked tightly on Son Goku and Frieza below.

Frieza watched Son Goku perform some warm-up movements across from him, casually swishing his tail. "Just like last time, I'll fight you with only one hand. If you can make me use my other hand, you win."

"Really? Then I'm very grateful. I'm ready already. And let me remind you—I already know how strong you are, so this time, I won't test the waters. I'll use my strongest power right from the start!" Son Goku said.

"Your strongest power? Hehe, interesting. Saiyan monkey, entertain me well," Frieza said with a soft laugh, completely unconcerned by Son Goku's warning.

Seeing this.

Son Goku wasted no words. He immediately clenched his fists and muttered in a low voice, "Kaio-ken, tenfold!"

"Yaaahhh!!"

Crimson aura blazed around him as Son Goku's battle power swelled without pause!

In the blink of an eye, Son Goku's battle power surpassed one million!

Feeling the gale blowing toward him, Frieza's eyes widened slightly in surprise. "Oh? It's only been a few days, and your strength has increased this much?"

On the hill.

Vegeta, who had begun to sense ki, could clearly feel just how powerful Kakarot was at that moment—and how insignificant he himself was!

"Th-that's... Kakarot?!" Vegeta's pupils trembled, his face full of disbelief.

Vegeta was not the only one; Nappa was equally stunned!

"Kakarot... has he become this strong already?" Nappa secretly clenched his fists as well. As an elite upper-class warrior, being surpassed by a low-class warrior truly did not feel good.

Seeing Vegeta's stunned expression, Li Wei smiled. "Well, Vegeta? Envious? Do you want to become even stronger than Goku? I can teach you—but the condition is that you work for me."

Upon hearing that, Vegeta secretly clenched his teeth as he struggled and hesitated inwardly...

"Frieza, here I come!" Son Goku called out.

The surprise vanished from Frieza's face, and he returned to his relaxed, composed demeanor. Raising a hand, he crooked a finger at Son Goku, his attitude as contemptuous as ever.

"Yah!!"

Son Goku roared and charged forward, unleashing a storm of punches and kicks at Frieza.

Frieza extended just one finger and effortlessly blocked every one of Son Goku's attacks.

Seeing this.

Son Goku leaped backward to open the distance, preparing to use a finishing move!

Whoosh~!

With a cold laugh, Frieza raised his hand and fired a Death Beam!

Son Goku was startled and hurriedly twisted aside to evade it!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~!

A continuous barrage of Death Beams shot out. Son Goku was run ragged, able only to dodge in a miserable scramble!

Whoosh~!

At last, a Death Beam pierced through Son Goku's chest!

"Ughh~"

Son Goku cried out in pain and dropped to one knee weakly. Even so, he refused to admit defeat, raising his hand to fire a ki blast in return.

Smack~!

Frieza casually swatted the energy blast away.

"Ho ho ho ho, Saiyan, do you understand the gap between us now?" Frieza asked mockingly.

Son Goku clutched the wound in his right chest, which had been pierced through. Cold sweat poured down his forehead, and the red aura around his body had dissipated with his injury. His power level, once above one million, had instantly fallen back to around one hundred thousand.

"So... so strong!" Son Goku gritted his teeth inwardly and tried to stand.

Whoosh!

Frieza appeared in front of Son Goku, wrapped his tail around Son Goku's neck, and lifted him into the air.

"Still trying to resist? What an overconfident little monkey. Is that the nature of a warrior race? Or are you simply... an idiot who knows no fear?!" Frieza asked with a cold sneer.

Bang!!

Frieza's heavy fist slammed into Son Goku's abdomen!

"Argh!!"

Son Goku let out a miserable howl as blood sprayed from his mouth, splattering across Frieza's face.

Frieza licked the blood from his face, growing even more excited. He still used only one hand, yet his attacks remained incredibly fast, beating Son Goku until he howled without pause!

"D-Damn it! That bastard Frieza!" Vegeta clenched his fists furiously at the sight below!

"Lord Li Wei, aren't you going to stop him? Frieza has gone too far!" Nappa asked anxiously.

Li Wei folded his arms and said calmly, "Goku really is a little too naive. It's good for him to suffer a bit. Maybe it'll change that fearless personality of his."

Bang!!

Frieza threw another heavy punch!

Son Goku let out a shrill cry, then rolled his eyes back and passed out on the spot.

"Hehe~ Now that's more like it!" Frieza flicked his tail and casually threw Son Goku away.

Whoosh!

Li Wei teleported down from the hill with Vegeta and Nappa.
