"Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the mission to kill every member of the Turles Crusher Corps and destroy the Tree of Might. Rewards: ten Tree of Might fruits, one Fifty-Times Gravity Chamber." "Ding! Rewards have been placed in the system storage. The host may retrieve them at any time."
Since Lin Chen defeated Turles and restored Planet Vegeta...
Three days had passed.
Over those three days, the Saiyans on Planet Vegeta had begun rebuilding the Royal Capital under King Vegeta's leadership.
The first thing they repaired was the Saiyan Royal Palace, which Turles and his men had damaged.
Now, in one corner of the palace, Linx was fast asleep with Hanasia in his arms.
This female Saiyan, the first he had met after returning to Planet Vegeta, had become Lin Chen's consort and enjoyed his exclusive favor.
But a sudden knock at the door woke them both.
"Linx, King Vegeta and the others are requesting an audience."
Hearing Broly's voice outside the door, Lin Chen opened his eyes and sat up in bed.
"Understood, Broly. Have them wait in the Council Hall."
"Your Majesty..."
Seeing Linx about to get out of bed, Hanasia wound her long legs around him like a serpent. Her face full of longing, she pleaded, "Your Majesty, ignore them. I still want more..."
Female Saiyans were fierce and passionate. In daily life and in the bedroom alike, Hanasia was a formidable woman, and Lin Chen found her utterly intoxicating.
But he knew that if he remained lost in her tender embrace, his downfall would not be far off.
So Lin Chen coldly pushed Hanasia away.
"Enough. Get up and come see King Vegeta and the others with me!"
Seeing Lin Chen turn stern for the first time in three days, Hanasia knew when to stop and immediately nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty!"
A short while later, Lin Chen arrived at the Council Hall with Hanasia and Broly, who now acted much like his personal bodyguard.
King Vegeta, Bardock, and Paragus had already been waiting for some time.
The three had come not only to report on the progress of the Royal Capital's reconstruction over the past three days, but also to request new instructions from Lin Chen.
Five years had passed in a flash. It was time for Planet Vegeta to change.
Previously, knowing he would have to sleep for five years, Lin Chen had not dared put many of his plans into motion.
Now that he had returned as king, those plans could finally be put on the agenda.
He authorized King Vegeta to lift the ban on travel into space, no longer restricting Saiyans from leaving Planet Vegeta.
At the same time, Lin Chen ordered Paragus to establish new laws, bringing rules to a Saiyan society that had previously respected only strength.
Lin Chen's plan was to establish his own Saiyan Empire in the near future!
Although the Saiyans were still weak, Lin Chen's ambition was to one day command an entire legion of Super Saiyans, Super Saiyan 2s, and even the more powerful Super Saiyan Gods!
When that day came, Lin Chen would stand at the pinnacle of the Saiyan Empire, wielding power that could rival the gods.
Then, whether he faced a God of Destruction, an Angel, or even Zeno, he would have nothing to fear!
To achieve all this, he needed to completely transform the Saiyans.
Familiar with the Dragon Ball storyline, Lin Chen believed that the Saiyans of the present were, in fact, a people who had fallen from grace.
After all, Saiyan history had once seen not only Super Saiyans, but even Super Saiyan Gods capable of rivaling the gods.
Yet in the current Saiyan Kingdom, excluding outliers like Lin Chen and Broly, their race had an average power level below 10,000.
Why had this happened?
After analyzing the storyline, Lin Chen concluded that it all stemmed from the Saiyans' way of life becoming barbaric and ignorant.
Judging by the clues in the original story, the Saiyans of ancient times should have been a peace-loving race with a strong sense of justice.
That much was evident from the two key factors determining Saiyan strength: S-Cells and a righteous heart.
S-Cells were the key to a Saiyan becoming a Super Saiyan.
These cells could only grow in large numbers in a peaceful, stable environment.
A righteous heart, meanwhile, was an essential condition for a Saiyan to become a Super Saiyan God.
If the Saiyans had always been as warlike and bloodthirsty as they were now, how could Super Saiyans and Super Saiyan Gods ever have emerged among them in the past?
There was only one explanation: the Saiyans had not originally been so warlike and bloodthirsty, with selfishness ingrained in their very bones. Some external factor must have changed them, causing their fighting strength to decline to its present level.
What Lin Chen intended to do now was restore the Saiyans to what they had originally been.
That transformation might be difficult, but it was not impossible.
The younger generation of Saiyans would soon grow up, and they would become Lin Chen's greatest source of support in transforming the Saiyan Empire.
"Ding! Host's desire to increase Saiyan strength detected. Activating Strongest Choice." "Choice one: within one year, raise more than 1,000 Saiyans to power levels above 10,000. Reward: five vials of S-Cells Serum. Each vial of S-Cells Serum can increase the S-Cells in one Saiyan's body by 20%!" "Choice two: within one year, raise more than 50 Saiyans to power levels above 100,000. Reward: one Hyperbolic Time Chamber." "Choice three: within one year, raise more than five Saiyans to power levels above 500,000. Reward: talent: beginner martial arts prodigy. Grants a 30% chance of instantly learning any technique performed in front of the talent's wielder."
It's here?
Lin Chen had anticipated the appearance of new system choices. By now, he had more or less figured out the pattern: the system tended to appear whenever he needed to make a major decision or choice.
He studied the three choices and quietly considered them.
Each choice was harder than the last, but each reward was better, too.
The first reward would allow Lin Chen to directly create a third Super Saiyan besides himself and Broly.
The second reward would give him a Hyperbolic Time Chamber, something exceedingly rare in the universe.
The ability to manipulate time was extremely rare in the Dragon Ball universe. In the original story, it had only appeared on Earth and in the God of Destruction Realm.
The final choice was even more precious to Lin Chen as he was now.
Lin Chen already had the bloodline and the power, but he still lacked a combat technique worthy of being called a finishing move. If he obtained this reward, he would have a chance to learn someone else's technique just by watching them perform it once. It could hardly be more convenient.
