Dragon Ball: Starting with Zeno Divine Power - Chapter 42

So powerful!

Now we were safe.

Indra, however, smiled as he looked toward Frieza.

Frieza jumped in fright, his face changing color.

Don't look at me!

What do you mean by looking at me?

I didn't do anything wrong!

Frieza suddenly came to his senses.

Bang!

Frieza threw a heavy punch into Vegeta's body.

"Vegeta, how dare you damage this planet! You even wanted to destroy it! Let's see how I deal with you!" Frieza launched into a savage beating of Vegeta.

The gap between Vegeta and Frieza was far too great. He had no strength to resist at all, and Frieza beat him until he continuously spat blood.

"What a pity, Vegeta. You've used up all your healing chances. No one can save you this time." Frieza wrapped his tail around Vegeta's neck and lifted him off the ground.

Bang!

As he spoke, Frieza punched Vegeta squarely in the back.

Blood sprayed wildly from Vegeta's mouth.

"Are you three coming over to help?" Frieza smiled at Piccolo and the other two, who were trembling on the opposite side.

Bang!

With a flick of his tail, Frieza smashed Vegeta to the ground.

At the same time, Frieza pointed a finger at Vegeta's body.

"Go die, Vegeta." Frieza smiled faintly.

"Hm? What's that?"

Just as Frieza was about to kill Vegeta, he saw a spaceship descend from the sky and land nearby.

"A spaceship? Who's here?" Frieza was taken aback.

"A spaceship? It can't be Goku, can it?" Krillin's heart surged with excitement.

"It's Dad! Great! It really is Dad!" Son Gohan clapped excitedly.

"Old Sun, you finally made it!" Piccolo wore a faint smile as well.

"It seems someone pretty impressive has arrived." Frieza rubbed his nose.

Whoosh!

An orange figure suddenly appeared at the scene.

It was Son Goku.

P.S.: Some readers asked, if Frieza is used as a unit of measurement, how much is one Frieza?

You can calculate it as 100 million battle power. Ignore the extra 20 million.

So, the protagonist's current battle power is as follows:

Bronze: 10 billion.

Silver: 100 billion.

Gold: 1 trillion battle power, which is 1 zhao.

After Gold comes Platinum, where battle power will increase dramatically.

"Sorry, I'm late." Son Goku silently looked ahead.

"This guy's face... looks somewhat familiar." Frieza glanced at Son Goku and found him vaguely familiar.

"You're Frieza, right? I didn't expect even Vegeta to lose to you." Son Goku looked at Frieza.

"Who is this guy? He looks all mysterious and is completely unlikeable." Frieza muttered under his breath.

"Vegeta, are you all right?" Son Goku then looked at Vegeta in his hands.

Vegeta said nothing.

"Why is this guy's energy so powerful?" Son Goku's expression changed repeatedly after sensing Frieza's energy.

"Hmph, fool who doesn't know his own limits, coming here to die!" With a cold snort, Frieza fired a crimson blast from his hand toward Son Goku.

"Goku, dodge!" Krillin cried out in alarm.

How could Son Goku possibly dodge?

At this point, Son Goku's battle power was at most 180,000.

Frieza's base battle power in his fourth form had already reached 3 million.

Given Frieza's current state, dealing with Son Goku was simply too easy.

Splat!

With a muffled sound, Frieza's energy blast pierced straight through Son Goku's heart.

Bang!

Son Goku crashed to the ground.

Krillin was dumbfounded.

Son Gohan froze in shock.

Piccolo was completely stunned as well.

Vegeta, on the other hand, wore an unsurprised expression.

Kakarot, why didn't you stay on Earth? Did you come all the way here just to die?

You couldn't even beat me, yet you wanted to challenge Frieza?

You must be dreaming!

"Goku!" Krillin shouted.

"Dad!" Son Gohan snapped back to his senses.

"Old Sun!" Piccolo said gravely.

"Cough, cough..."

Son Goku kept coughing up blood, looking as though he would not survive.

"Tch, I wondered who had come rushing over. So this is all you're capable of? What a disappointment." Frieza sneered.

"Goku!" Krillin had already rushed to Son Goku's side.

"Haha... Krillin... sorry. I came so late, and I didn't manage to help at all..." Son Goku looked deeply guilty. "This guy is really too powerful."

"Goku, it's okay. Dende can heal you. I'll have Dende treat you." Krillin hurriedly replied, then shouted, "Dende, come help!"

Dende turned to Indra, asking with his eyes whether he should heal him.

"He's late. Give him one chance to be healed." Indra gestured to Dende.

"Yes!"

Dende flew rapidly toward Son Goku.

Dende held his hands over Son Goku's body, and healing light blossomed.

Very soon, Son Goku's injured heart rapidly returned to normal.

Son Goku suddenly opened his eyes and sprang up from the ground.

"That's incredible! I'm completely healed. It works just as well as a Senzu Bean." Son Goku looked at Dende in delighted surprise.

"Goku, thank goodness you're okay..." Krillin sighed in relief.

"Dad." Son Gohan came over with a smile.

"Huh? Indra is here too?" Only then did Son Goku notice Indra drinking tea atop the mountain. "He's still as relaxed as ever."

Frieza: "..."

This guy was healed again?

It seemed Indra had just said that he would only give him one chance to be healed.

"Indra said you'll only get one chance to be healed, so you'd better be careful, Goku." Krillin gritted his teeth and told Son Goku.

"What do you mean?" Son Goku was taken aback, not understanding what Krillin meant.

"Dende can heal people. Frieza could have killed him, but Indra protected Dende." Krillin briefly explained. "But even if he protected him, Dende can't keep healing us endlessly. Indra said that each of us only gets three chances to be healed. Since you arrived late, you can only be healed this one time."

"Krillin... are you saying Frieza can't beat Indra?" Son Goku finally understood.

"Yeah..." Krillin scratched his head.

It was more than just not being able to beat him.

Frieza was practically a coward in front of Indra, okay?

"But I think Indra isn't the kind of person who would stand by and watch someone die, right?" Krillin lowered his voice and whispered to Son Goku.

"Probably." Son Goku nodded slightly. "Never mind. Indra once said that he doesn't like fighting, so let's leave this matter to us."

"Your heart was pierced just now, yet you still survived. You've got quite a life, haven't you?" Frieza looked at Son Goku with a smile.

"Let's start over, Frieza!" Son Goku's expression turned serious.

"You seem pretty confident." Frieza rubbed his nose and kicked at Son Goku.

Son Goku reacted quickly, bracing himself on the ground with one hand as he kicked back with the other foot.

Bang!

The kick landed squarely on Frieza's face.

Frieza let out a shrill cry and was sent flying backward on the spot.

Frieza landed steadily on the ground, rubbing his large, kicked face, his eyes brimming with killing intent.

Whoosh!

With a wave of his hand, Frieza sent a crimson blast screaming toward Son Goku.

"Goku, watch out!" Krillin cried.

Son Goku's heart had just been pierced by that very blast.

Could he dodge it this time?

Smack!

Son Goku slapped his palm forward.

The incoming blast was knocked flying just like that.

"Oh?" Frieza looked at Son Goku across from him in surprise.

Krillin was equally astonished.

What was going on?

"Goku, honestly, at a time like this, you're still putting on an act?" Krillin said irritably. "If you'd shown this level of strength from the start, he wouldn't have pierced your heart."

"Krillin, I really wasn't his match just now." Son Goku gently shook his head. "I could tell that when I first arrived, the gap between our strength was far too great."
