Dragon Ball: Zeno's Divine Power at the Start - Chapter 31

Indra had once brought Tights to Namek and even made a wish.

Moreover, it had been Indra who suggested coming to find the Grand Elder.

How could Indra not know the Grand Elder?

And how could the Grand Elder not know Indra?

"What I mean is, Grand Elder, could you give us your Dragon Ball? We want to..." Krillin explained everything.

"I understand why you have come. I never expected Earth to have Dragon Balls as well. Is he Katatz's child? Then Katatz's child finally arrived safely on Earth. Good, very good." The Grand Elder smiled comfortingly. "Unfortunately, in order to become Earth's God, he split himself into two people. If they had remained one, that Saiyan would not have been able to defeat him."

Krillin said nothing.

"Earthling, come here. I will awaken your latent potential," the Grand Elder called to Krillin.

"Huh? Latent potential?" Krillin froze.

"Come to my side." The Grand Elder smiled.

Krillin had no choice but to obediently stand beside the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder placed a hand on Krillin's head.

Whoosh!

An invisible energy poured into Krillin's body.

At once, Krillin's ki surged dramatically.

"What? Something like this is possible?" Krillin was both shocked and delighted.

"Earthling, I need to ask something of you. Please bring Indra here. There is something I wish to ask him," the Grand Elder said to Krillin.

"Huh? Bring Indra here?" Krillin was at a loss.

Indra was unwilling to come.

If he had been willing, he would have come with them earlier.

And who knew where Indra had gone now?

There was not the slightest fluctuation of ki from Indra.

And Bulma, who was with Indra, was merely a frail woman. Her ki was so weak that it was difficult to sense their presence at all.

"I don't know where they are..." Krillin said awkwardly.

"They are at the intersection of 501.125. Fly straight in this direction for roughly 4,000 kilometers, and you will see a range of blue mountains. Indra is within those mountains. Once you get there, search around and you will find him," the Grand Elder replied.

"Huh? Grand Elder, you can sense Indra's exact location?" Krillin was utterly astonished.

"I cannot sense Indra's location, but I can sense your companion," the Grand Elder replied. "Indra should be with your other companion, correct?"

"The Grand Elder means Miss Bulma?" Krillin suddenly understood.

"Earthling, please. When you return, I will personally offer you the Dragon Ball," said the Grand Elder.

"Alright, I understand. I'll go find Indra right away," Krillin said with a slight nod.

"Be careful on the way," said the Grand Elder.

Whoosh!

Krillin transformed into a streak of white light and swiftly flew toward the mountain range where Indra was.

"Grand Elder... why are you looking for Indra?" Nail, who had remained silent all this time, looked at the Grand Elder in confusion.

"I can foresee that our planet faces a catastrophic disaster..." the Grand Elder said gravely. "I believe only Indra can find a way to save the Namekians. Otherwise, our Namekian race may face extinction."

"What? Something like that will happen?" Nail's expression changed.

Dende was so frightened that cold sweat streamed down his face.

"Namek faces a catastrophic disaster?" Son Gohan was likewise scared out of his wits.

A certain village.

Vegeta slaughtered his way through the village, wiping out every Namekian there, and found a Dragon Ball inside one of the houses.

"So this is a Dragon Ball? I thought it would be kept somewhere incredibly secret. It was this obvious?" A curve formed at Vegeta's lips. "From what Frieza and the others said, all seven Dragon Balls need to be gathered to make a wish... As long as I hide this one, Frieza will have no way to make his wish. Then I'll find an opportunity to snatch Frieza's Dragon Balls..."

Vegeta began his plan to seize the Dragon Balls.

"I wonder what happened. Frieza and the others' signals have been completely cut off." Vegeta pondered as he took out a scouter.

Vegeta was clever. After crushing the scouter he had been wearing, he replaced it with Cui's scouter.

This made Frieza and the others believe that Vegeta had lost contact.

What Frieza and the others did not know was that Vegeta had been secretly monitoring their conversations the entire time.

It was worth noting that when Indra appeared on Frieza's side, Vegeta had been in this village asking about the whereabouts of the Dragon Balls and had not been monitoring Frieza.

Therefore, Vegeta did not know that Indra had already arrived on Namek.

"Whoosh!"

Vegeta casually tossed the Dragon Ball into the lake near the village.

"Now no one will know where the Dragon Ball is." Vegeta beamed.

But then Vegeta's heart stirred, and he suddenly looked diagonally behind him.

"Huh? This energy... feels familiar! Who is it?" Vegeta froze for a moment and looked into the distance.

"Whoosh!"

A streak of white light flashed through Vegeta's field of vision.

Vegeta focused his eyes, and his expression changed.

It was that bald guy!

Vegeta was startled. Thinking he had seen wrong, he rubbed his eyes hard.

It really was that Earthling!

How was that possible?

Why would an Earthling be on Planet Namek?

How did they get here?

This was bad!

Where was Indra?

Had that guy Indra come too?

No!

I have to follow him and find out.

For now, it seemed there was only that bald Earthling. Indra was nowhere to be seen.

"Whoosh!"

Vegeta shot into the sky and rapidly chased after Krillin.

"This brat's battle power... 14,000!" Vegeta looked at the bald Krillin flying ahead of him in disbelief.

Back on Earth, I clearly remembered his battle power being only a little over 1,500.

Only a month had passed, yet his battle power had already nearly reached what mine used to be.

What exactly happened?

How had his battle power improved so quickly?

Vegeta was full of questions.

Fortunately, what reassured Vegeta was that this bald guy's battle power was still far inferior to his own.

"Where is he planning to go?" Vegeta frowned.

After the Grand Elder had awakened Krillin's latent power, Krillin had become a little carried away.

The current Krillin practically had the attitude of being able to walk all over Planet Namek.

Krillin was flying along enthusiastically when he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

"Oh no! Someone's following me!" Krillin's face changed. After sensing behind him slightly, he could not help but shudder.

Vegeta!

Why was he following me?

What did he want with me?

This was bad.

Back on Earth, when Vegeta had been about to flee, I was the one who wanted to kill him.

He wouldn't still hold a grudge against me, would he?

I'm done for. Am I going to die?

"Damn it, why haven't I reached Indra's place yet?" Krillin felt that things were going terribly wrong.

Behind him.

"Oh? It seems he noticed me." Vegeta smiled faintly.

"Whoosh!"

Vegeta increased his speed.

In an instant, Vegeta appeared directly in front of Krillin and blocked his path.

"Stop!" Vegeta said with a light laugh.

"Vegeta? It's you?" Krillin stopped tremblingly, pretending to be very surprised.

"Surprised? I was surprised too." Vegeta sneered. "What I didn't expect was that, with Earth's technology, you actually managed to make it all the way to Planet Namek."

Krillin said nothing.

"Where's Kakarot? Did he come?" Vegeta asked, looking at Krillin.

"No..." Krillin replied. "Goku was badly injured and is recovering... But Indra came."

"What did you say? Indra is here? Where is he?" Vegeta immediately became alert.

"I'm looking for him..." Krillin answered.

Vegeta silently watched Krillin.

Should I wipe out this bald guy?

Forget it, there was no rush.

Once I became a Super Saiyan, I could kill him then.

Crushing him would be as easy as crushing an ant.

For now, it was better not to alert the enemy.

"Hm? Another power level." Vegeta suddenly saw a power reading appear on his scouter and couldn't help grinning. "It's that guy Dodoria! Great! It looks like he's separated from Frieza."

Sure enough, the next moment, a pink fat man appeared near Vegeta and Krillin.

It was Dodoria.

Dodoria had come out to search for Dragon Balls. The moment he saw Krillin, he turned and ran.

Too terrifying!

Wasn't that bald guy one of Lord Indra's companions?
