Namek

"You..."

When Cui heard Vegeta address him like that, a nameless fury immediately rose in his heart! But after thinking of something, the smile on Cui's face gradually became even more twisted! He released Vegeta, revealing a look full of mockery and disdain! ⌓‿⌓

"Vegeta, Lord Frieza is magnanimous. He has already forgiven you because you discovered something valuable!"

"What?"

Vegeta froze. He remembered that he had thrown the Scouter to the ground, but he had not turned it off. That meant...

"Hahaha... Vegeta, we have you to thank for this. If it weren't for you, how could Lord Frieza have learned about the Dragon Balls? It's all thanks to you. He's very pleased!"

Cui's words filled Vegeta with anger and unease. "What did you say? You mean Lord Frieza has gone to..."

Cui said, "Namek. Immortality, hahaha..."

"Bastard..."

Vegeta angrily ran out. As he passed an alien, he snatched the alien's Scouter and boarded a spaceship.

"Damn it, I won't let you succeed. They're mine! Damn it, if Frieza really succeeds... I'll have to obey his every command from now on! Bastard..."

Namek. Seen through the spaceship's window, it was an emerald-green planet.

Step by step, Son Goku had already become completely at ease under one hundred times gravity in the Gravity Room, and his strength had grown even greater, surpassing his current self.

Son Wuling had also tried training in the Gravity Room, but even though he could withstand ten times gravity, or even more, he found it was not very useful to him. It also placed an extremely severe burden on his body and caused damage. It was better to train as he had before, so gravity training was useless to him, or rather, rather pointless.

"We've arrived at Namek. Everyone, sit tight and fasten your seat belts. We're landing! There'll be some turbulence."

Son Wuling and Bulma sat together in the front cockpit seats. Son Goku, Piccolo, Son Gohan, and Videl hurriedly fastened their seat belts, gripped their seats, and endured the turbulence and impact of landing!

Rumble!

The shaking stopped. Bulma immediately pulled out a whole pile of things. She had come thoroughly prepared.

"Everyone, wait a moment. I need to check the atmosphere. I even specially prepared oxygen masks and things like that... Huh..."

Bulma watched as Son Wuling, Son Goku, Videl, and Son Gohan simply opened the hatch and went outside, and she exploded with anger!

"You... You people! It's one thing for Son-kun and the others to lack common sense, but Wuling, why did you come out so recklessly too?!"

Bulma angrily walked out and shouted.

Son Wuling tilted his head, his expression unchanged. "Because the moment we entered Namek, I could already sense Namek's ki. More importantly, Piccolo is roughly the same as us. Even if the environment differs, it can't be too different."

"I..." Bulma was rendered speechless by Son Wuling's words.

Piccolo's gaze carried a trace of nostalgia. This feeling was tranquil, and he enjoyed it greatly. This was his hometown, a place that could calm his heart.

"So this is Uncle Piccolo's hometown? It feels a lot like the place where I trained!" Son Gohan said as he looked around.

Videl's clear eyes sparkled as she jogged over to Son Wuling's side. "Master Wuling, this is Namek, right? It's so beautiful."

Son Wuling was already unsurprised by whatever might happen next. He turned the spaceship into a Capsule and handed it to Bulma.

"Don't wander off. Videl, Gohan, if anything happens, make sure you protect Videl!" Son Wuling specifically said to Son Gohan! He had agreed to let Videl come because of Son Gohan. Although they would have gotten together anyway, wasn't it better for them to meet sooner?

"Mm, Uncle Wuling, I'll definitely protect Videl!" Son Gohan stood before Son Wuling and answered firmly.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him!

He sensed a great many ki signatures in the distance. Their intensity was not high, but there were many of them!

"Someone?"

Everyone except Videl and Bulma sensed it. It seemed like they were fighting!

"That's Vegeta. Who are the others? They all seem strong too! So this is what Piccolo and Kami's ominous premonition was about. Bulma, the Dragon Radar!"

Son Wuling hurriedly shouted at Bulma!

"Since they're Namekians like Kami and Piccolo, there must be Namekians wherever there are Dragon Balls."

"Vegeta, haha... Didn't that Saiyan get chased off by Son-kun last time? It'll be fine!" Bulma laughed dismissively.

"No..."

Son Wuling's startled shout gave Bulma, Videl, and the others a huge fright!

Son Wuling looked at the Dragon Radar in his hand. His sensing ability was far stronger than Son Goku's or Piccolo's!

"There's an incredibly powerful ki signature. Look at the Dragon Radar, six Dragon Balls are already gathered together. This is bad, bad... That's not someone Vegeta can compare to at all. He's strong, incredibly strong!"

Sweat gathered on Son Wuling's forehead. He knew whose ki it was: Frieza. He was absurdly powerful. Even though he had mentally anticipated it, facing it for real still felt terrifying. And this was only his first form. His final form would probably be even more terrifying!

"Bulma, take Videl and return to Earth first. The situation has exceeded my expectations. If anything happens, Goku will use King Kai to contact you, then use Shenron to bring us back."

Son Wuling desperately wanted to tell them everything, about Frieza and his own secret, but he could not. He was afraid someone might read his memories. For that reason, he had studied the soul for a time with Master Roshi's sister, Fortuneteller Baba, and created two soul techniques: the Mind-Sealing Technique and Psychic Shock!

Not even Korin had noticed anything. As for Psychic Shock, it worked against those weaker than himself, but using it against someone stronger would cause backlash. Against someone of equal strength, it would be no more than a mosquito bite!

"Wuling, I'm afraid it's too late!"

Piccolo looked coldly at the sky, his arms folded across his chest. "Vegeta is flying this way!"

"Hide, quickly..."

Son Wuling grabbed Videl. Son Gohan controlled his ki and hid in a secluded mountain hollow. Son Goku grabbed Bulma, while Piccolo followed behind them and concealed his ki as well.

Time rewound. Vegeta's spherical spaceship crashed onto Namek! At this moment, Son Wuling and the others had only just departed from Earth.

Wearing a blue battle suit and a Scouter, he stepped out of the deep crater. "That bastard Frieza, I absolutely won't let you succeed!"

After putting on the Scouter and finding the direction, Vegeta was about to leave!

Whoosh...

A spherical spaceship identical to his crashed down. After sensing whose ki it was, Vegeta revealed a disdainful expression.

"Cui? That piece of trash actually dared to chase after me!"
