Hearing Raditz's question, Li Wei nodded slightly. "Vegeta is in West City. What, do you really want to see him?"

At his words.

Raditz seemed to have guessed something and smiled. "I see. Prince Vegeta must have taken over this planet and ordered you to gather the Dragon Balls to revive me, right? Since you brought me back, I'll put in a few good words for you in front of Prince Vegeta when the time comes."

Li Wei shook a finger and explained, "No, no, no. Vegeta wasn't the one who had me revive you. I was simply very curious what you would look like if you turned into Super Saiyan 3. You and Nappa are in the same league."

"What Super Saiyan 3? What nonsense are you Earthling talking about?" Raditz flipped himself out of the freezing pod, frowning at Li Wei and Ikaros beside him.

"Earthling, since you revived me, I won't hold your nonsense against you. Where is Prince Vegeta? Take me to him now!" Raditz ordered.

Li Wei looked Raditz up and down and smiled. "Looks like I need to teach you some manners first."

Raditz frowned at that, then sneered. "What? Earthling, do you want to experience the power of a Saiyan? Be careful, or I might kill you!"

Sensing the killing intent radiating from Raditz, Ikaros instinctively entered a combat state. Her emerald-green pupils turned scarlet as she directly assumed the form of the Queen of the Sky.

"Master, may I kill him?" Ikaros asked.

"No. It wasn't easy bringing him back to life. Be good. Fighting isn't suitable for a girl like you." Li Wei rubbed Ikaros's head, and the warmth of her master's palm made Ikaros revert to normal without realizing it.

Seeing this scene.

Raditz narrowed his eyes and snorted. "You two don't seem to take me very seriously, do you? Don't think that just because you revived me, you can act recklessly in front of me!"

"Fine, I'll give you a small lesson so you can understand just how terrifying Saiyans are!" Raditz sneered, raising a hand as scorching energy gathered within it.

Whoosh~!

A scorching beam shot forth, piercing straight through Raditz's chest!

Ikaros was the one who attacked!

Ikaros snapped out of her daze and hurriedly explained in a panic, "Master... I... I couldn't hold back just now. I think I killed him... I'm sorry!"

Seeing Ikaros lower her head and admit her mistake, Li Wei naturally chose to forgive her and habitually rubbed her head.

Feeling her master's warm hand, Ikaros immediately wore an expression of enjoyment.

After soothing Ikaros's emotions, Li Wei finally unhurriedly checked Raditz's condition.

"Not bad. He's quite tenacious!" Li Wei remarked, placing his palm on Raditz's chest and healing his injuries.

Whoosh!

Raditz abruptly opened his eyes, then continuously retreated, quickly widening the distance between himself and Li Wei and Ikaros.

He instinctively raised a hand to touch the chest that had just been pierced by the beam. His gaze immediately turned wary as he looked at Ikaros and gritted his teeth. "Who exactly are you people?"

Whoosh!

Li Wei flashed in front of Raditz and smiled. "You know, Frieza and Vegeta have both been working for me. So, like them, you should come work for me too."

"W-What?!"

Raditz's eyes widened at those words, his face full of disbelief.

"What nonsense! You Earthling, do you even know what you're saying?!" Raditz roared.

Bang!

Li Wei's fist landed in Raditz's abdomen!

"Urgh—!"

Raditz spat out a mouthful of blood, wailing as he dropped to his knees.

Looking at Raditz kneeling on the ground in pain, Li Wei smiled. "I'm really sorry, but Saiyans are just too stubborn. Explaining things to you is less effective than convincing you with my fists."

"Well? Do you believe me now?"

Raditz gritted his teeth in fury. Just as he was about to say something, he coughed up two more mouthfuls of blood.

Feeling the terrible state of his body, Raditz deeply understood what kind of powerhouse the man before him was.

He immediately put away his pride and lowered his head. "M-My lord, I was blind just now... I... I believe you!"

"Mm, that's more like a good boy." Li Wei raised a hand and sent out a ball of light, helping Raditz recover from his injuries.

The intense pain in Raditz's abdomen vanished. He immediately stood up with lingering fear, but his eyes were now filled with dread and... resentment when he looked at Li Wei.

"My lord, what would you like me to do for you?" Raditz asked respectfully.

Li Wei said, "You're still too weak. If you want to work for me, you'll need to train first. At the very least, become a Super Saiyan."

"S-Super Saiyan?!" Raditz's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"It's troublesome to explain. Go ask Vegeta instead." Li Wei beckoned Ikaros over, then took Raditz with them and instantly teleported to Bulma's house.

Bulma's house, Gravity Chamber.

Vegeta was training inside the Gravity Chamber.

At this moment, Vegeta's battle power had already far surpassed three million, yet he still had not managed to transform into a Super Saiyan.

On one hand, his anger was not strong enough.

On the other hand, his state of mind was still lacking.

Whoosh!

Li Wei teleported over with Raditz.

"Training, as expected?" Li Wei glanced at the Gravity Chamber and immediately knew Vegeta was training inside.

"Vegeta, come out for a moment," Li Wei called.

Vegeta, who had been training, froze for a moment. He immediately shut off the gravity system and walked out of the Gravity Chamber.

"Lord Li Wei, I wonder... Hm? You're Raditz? You've been revived?!" Vegeta's eyes widened slightly as he looked at Raditz in surprise.

"Prince Vegeta, I've finally seen you again!" Raditz shouted excitedly.

Vegeta frowned and asked, "Lord Li Wei, did you revive Raditz?"

Li Wei nodded. "Vegeta, I'm leaving Raditz's training to you. He's far too weak."

Vegeta shot Raditz a disdainful glance. "What use is there in reviving trash like this? Even with training, he won't improve much."

"Prince Vegeta..." Raditz could clearly feel Vegeta's contempt and indifference toward him. It angered him, but he did not dare show it.

"Anyway, train Raditz for a while first. Just don't kill him. I merely had a sudden whim—I want to see how far Raditz can grow," Li Wei said.

Vegeta's brows drew tightly together. He gave Raditz a cold look and snorted. "Fine. Since it's Lord Li Wei's order, I'll accept it for now."

"Raditz, prepare yourself. I'll train you very strictly, so don't die!" Vegeta said with a cold smile.
