The Girl's Name

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Under King Cold's pressure, several hundred soldiers charged at the blonde girl all at once! They screamed wildly to bolster their own courage!

A power level of zero was impossible—an illusion, a lie. Combined with King Cold's earlier reaction, they had no choice. Filled with terror, they rushed toward the blonde girl.

The blonde girl's delicate face was filled with disgust and revulsion. She raised her right palm, forming a Destructo Disc.

Whoosh!

Amid the sound of flesh being sliced, before King Cold could even prepare to flee, the several hundred soldiers he had brought were all cut down by the blonde girl's Destructo Disc in a single breath. Severed limbs and corpses scattered everywhere, every eye wide open in death! Purple blood soaked the ground!

The Destructo Disc in the blonde girl's hand dispersed. She looked carefree and natural; even surrounded by hundreds of mangled corpses, she remained utterly composed. Her bright blue eyes stared at King Cold.

Why was there such a terrifying person in a remote place like this?!

Although the Scouter had detected no energy from the blonde girl, that inexplicable sense of pressure made him think of a legendary, terrifying existence he had personally seen before. The pressure felt exactly the same!

"What's wrong? Why does the mighty Supreme King of the Universe, King Cold, look like a startled rabbit?"

The blonde girl gently brushed up her bangs. Her blue eyes bore deeply into King Cold without a trace of emotion. Using an Energy Control Bullet to manipulate the scattered limbs and corpses, she covered them with a Ki blast, reducing them completely to dust!

"What?"

Son Wuling, Son Gohan, Videl, Piccolo, Vegeta, Tien Shinhan, and the others sensed the energy of several hundred lives vanish in an instant.

"What happened? Could it be Trunks?"

Son Wuling wondered inwardly, accelerating several degrees. Son Gohan and Videl paused briefly before quickly following after him!

At the place where the spaceship had landed, Son Wuling happened to see the blonde girl use a Ki blast to reduce the corpses to dust!

"How could it be... It's actually..."

Android 18 nearly slipped from Son Wuling's lips. He had thought it might be Trunks, or Son Gohan. He had considered many people, but he had never expected it to be Android 18!

Android 18 had beautiful golden short hair and blue eyes. Aside from her hair being slightly longer, this blonde girl looked exactly like the Android 18 who would appear later, as though they had been cast from the same mold.

"No, that's not right. Maybe she's Maron, the daughter of future Krillin and Android 18... Probably? Maybe?"

Son Wuling found it hard to believe. At the same time, he could not help feeling speechless over Krillin. Even after marrying Android 18, he had actually named his daughter after his ex-girlfriend. How could that ex possibly compare to Android 18?

Son Wuling compared Krillin's former girlfriend, Maron, with Android 18. Android 18 completely outclassed her in every way, yet even after getting married, Krillin still could not let her go!

However, Son Wuling had not seen Krillin's ex-girlfriend again. He did not know whether it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Krillin and that former female captain of the Red Ribbon Army had something going on!

Son Wuling shook his head. No, forget Krillin and Android 18's daughter. As a child, she had simply looked like a smaller Krillin with golden hair. Could the blonde girl before him really be Android 18 herself?

"Dad..."

At that moment, the blonde girl sensed Son Wuling's energy and instinctively called out! Her cheeks flushed, and she looked as shy as a young girl. Her trembling blue eyes became lively as well, but Son Wuling was too far away to hear her.

King Cold, however, heard her clearly!

"Dad?"

King Cold certainly did not think the blonde girl was calling him. Looking around, he spotted Son Wuling!

"You heard that... Cold!"

The blonde girl's expression turned even colder. She looked completely different from her shy appearance just moments ago, returning to her earlier capable and ruthless demeanor.

"I-I didn't! I didn't hear anything! Please spare me, my lady!"

King Cold dropped directly to his knees and begged the blonde girl for mercy! Son Wuling, watching from afar, was instantly dumbfounded! His brain could barely process it—why was King Cold so spineless that he had actually knelt down?!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Son Gohan and Videl arrived shortly afterward. Seeing the scene before them, they too stood frozen in shock, unable to speak.

"Th-that is King Cold, right, Master Wuling?" Videl asked blankly.

"That's him. He looks a lot like Frieza," Son Wuling replied.

"But why is King Cold kneeling before that golden-haired big sister?" Like Son Wuling, Son Gohan felt that his brain was not enough for this. King Cold was actually kneeling and begging for mercy! Even when Frieza on Namek had faced two opponents at once, he had refused to admit defeat!

If Son Wuling knew what Son Gohan was thinking, he would tell him that Frieza had cried for help to Son Goku on Namek, revealed his most vulnerable side, and even admitted defeat. Perhaps after being revived, it was precisely because of that that Frieza had become so obsessed with Son Goku.

"I'd also like to know what the hell is going on," Son Wuling replied helplessly. Everything was a mess, completely messed up. He wanted to know too—Trunks, the despairing Super Saiyan warrior from before, had vanished, and now a girl identical to Android 18 had appeared. What was this supposed to be?!

"Still, it's better if that despairing world doesn't exist. Everything remains as wonderful as it should be. Son Goku didn't die of some viral heart disease, everyone is still alive, and Trunks is no longer a lonely warrior of despair!"

Son Wuling could not help thinking.

Using an Energy Control Bullet, the blonde girl suspended King Cold in midair. He struggled constantly as he begged her for mercy!

"My name is Rose, and I am the Destroyer Angel of the entire universe. Even if Beerus, the God of Destruction, and Whis came here, they wouldn't be able to save you, Cold. Since you heard something you weren't supposed to hear, die beneath the divine power of Ultra Instinct!"

A silver ripple of energy formed at the pineal gland of the blonde girl named Rose.

Time seemed to freeze at that moment. Amid King Cold's pleas, his body slowly shattered and vanished, turning into bright silver ashes that scattered across the ground and drifted away on the wind. Vegeta, Piccolo, and the others, who had arrived late, happened to witness Rose destroy King Cold.

"Hmph... You're far inferior to your son Frieza, Cold. You're nowhere close to him. If your cells weren't still somewhat useful, I would have destroyed even your soul. Then not even the Super Dragon Balls could revive you!"

The blonde girl snorted coldly. A Ki blast from her hand directly destroyed King Cold's spaceship. Watching the ashes drift in every direction, she revealed a faint smile.

"Next, I need to explain things to Uncle Goku, Uncle Krillin, Uncle Piccolo, and Uncle Vegeta. But Dad can't find out. If he does, I might not be born in this timeline!"
