"Babidi?"

Son Goku tilted his head and asked, "Supreme Kai, is this Babidi person very strong?"

Shin smiled. "Not at all. Even Mr. Krillin could kill him!"

"Huh? He's that weak? Then why is Kibito panicking?" Son Goku looked curiously at the flustered Kibito.

Kibito shot Son Goku a glare and explained, "Babidi may not be strong, but that tall man beside him is terrifyingly powerful. He is the king who rules the Demon Realm!"

"The King of the Demon Realm?" Cold sweat ran down Piccolo's forehead. Just hearing that title was intimidating enough.

Krillin asked in a trembling voice, "The... the King of the Demon Realm? Then... how strong is he?"

Everyone else was extremely curious as well.

Shin explained with a smile, "He's not that strong. Dabura is probably about as strong as Cell, whom you fought several years ago."

"Cell?!"

Piccolo and the others were shocked. Cell had left a deep shadow on them back then. Even now, few of them dared say they had the strength to defeat Cell.

Someone with strength comparable to Cell wasn't that strong? That was terrifying, all right!

"Strength comparable to Cell? Hmph! Then he's not all that strong!" Vegeta said disdainfully.

Son Goku asked curiously, "Dabura? Is that the big guy's name?"

Shin nodded. "That's right. Dabura, the King of the Demon Realm. Compared to you, Mr. Son Goku, he's merely a minor character."

"Tch!" Vegeta was displeased.

Shin smiled at Vegeta and said, "Mr. Vegeta, even for you, Dabura would be a formidable opponent. But if you join forces with Gohan, you can easily take him down."

"Hmph! I alone am enough. I don't need that brat meddling!" Vegeta said irritably.

Son Gohan awkwardly scratched his cheek and asked, "Um... what exactly is the Demon Realm?"

Shin explained, "It is like the two sides of a coin. The world you live in is the front side of the coin, while the Demon Realm where Dabura lives is the reverse side."

"At this stage, among the mortals living in your world, the strongest is the other Saiyan I mentioned before. Meanwhile, Dabura is currently the strongest person in the Demon Realm."

"What?!" Vegeta's eyes widened. Naturally, he did not believe it. Pointing his thumb at himself, he said confidently, "In this universe, aside from Kakarot, I should be the strongest!"

Shin merely smiled without speaking.

Vegeta gritted his teeth and demanded, "You keep mentioning this other Saiyan. Who exactly is he? Are there other pure-blooded Saiyans in this universe besides Kakarot and me?!"

Shin nodded. "Of course. As far as I know, aside from you and Mr. Goku, there are at least three pure-blooded Saiyans in the universe."

"Three?!"

Everyone stared wide-eyed in shock, especially Vegeta. He had never imagined there were still surviving pure-blooded Saiyans in the universe.

Shin said, "As for the other Saiyan I keep mentioning... if the opportunity arises, you will meet him someday."

Son Goku asked curiously, "Is that Saiyan strong?"

Shin said, "Very strong. Even you at your current level, Mr. Son Goku, might not be his match."

"He's that strong?!" Son Goku was somewhat surprised. Then an eager expression appeared on his face. "I really want to fight him!"

Shin smiled. "If the opportunity arises, you will."

Son Gohan interjected at that moment, "Supreme Kai, you said that Saiyan is even stronger than my dad. Then why not have him deal with Majin Buu?"

Shin explained, "At this stage, that Saiyan is weaker than both Mr. Son Goku and Buu. But what makes that Saiyan formidable is his talent. As long as he fights, his strength can rapidly increase!"

"In theory, as long as that Saiyan keeps fighting, his power can increase without limit!"

Upon hearing that,

Everyone was stunned. Vegeta in particular clenched his fists unwillingly. At the same time, he refused to believe that such a terrifyingly gifted Saiyan existed in the universe!

Among pure-blooded Saiyans, I, Vegeta, should have the greatest talent!

"Unfortunately, precisely because that Saiyan possesses such terrifying growth potential, his mind cannot bear the rapidly increasing power. Once he starts fighting, he can easily lose his reason."

"If we brought him here to deal with Buu, I fear that before Buu is defeated by him, Earth would be destroyed by that Saiyan first."

"Unable to control his own power? That really is troublesome. Still, I truly want to spar with him!" Son Goku said expectantly.

While everyone was talking,

Below, after Spopovich and the other man told Babidi that their mission had failed and even begged him to avenge them, Babidi sneered and directly killed one of them with magic.

The other man was terrified and immediately turned to flee!

"Pui Pui, leave him to you," Babidi said.

"As you command, Lord Babidi." Pui Pui gave a sinister laugh, then raised his hand. Energy erupted, and the other fleeing man was instantly blown into pieces.

The commotion drew the Z Fighters' attention.

Son Gohan looked at Babidi and his group below, their cruelty making him clench his fists. "That's awful. They're even killing their own people!"

Krillin had already been frightened out of his wits. His body was completely limp as he silently regretted it. Maybe I shouldn't have come?

Piccolo's gaze lingered on Pui Pui for only a moment before shifting to Dabura. Although Dabura was not deliberately releasing any aura, Piccolo could still sense that he was a terrifying enemy!

"The King of the Demon Realm with strength comparable to Cell? But from the way he looks, why does he seem so respectful toward Babidi?" Piccolo asked curiously.

Shin explained, "That is because although Babidi himself is not strong, he possesses strange magic. He can demonize those with evil in their hearts and turn them into his servants."

"Dabura is one such person. So were the two Earthlings who were just killed. Babidi merely exploited the evil thoughts in their hearts."

"There... there is such strange power? That's truly terrifying!" Piccolo said through gritted teeth.

"Hmph! Nothing but cheap tricks!" Vegeta judged disdainfully.

Krillin shakily raised his hand and said in a trembling voice, "Um... I don't think I can be of much help here? How about I go back first?"

Son Goku laughed. "It's fine, Krillin. You can go back. Leave this place to us."

"I'm really sorry. Then I'll be leaving first." Just as Krillin was ashamedly preparing to leave, something unexpected happened!
