As it happened, Lin Chen's original reason for summoning Shenron this time was to revive Hanasia and the others.
Since Planet Namek's Shenron could not revive multiple people at once, he had brought Earth's Shenron over as well.
But Lin Chen really had not thought about any wishes beyond bringing them back.
What should I wish for?
Having made no preparations beforehand, Lin Chen had to think of something on the spot.
Got it!
"Porunga, for my second wish, please reinforce Planet Vegeta so it won't be easily destroyed by outside forces!"
Lin Chen had learned his lesson from what had happened to Hanasia.
Even a Super Saiyan could sometimes be too late to save a planet.
Although Frieza was dead now, countless unknown and powerful enemies still existed in the universe.
Destroying planets was easy in the Dragon Ball world. Even someone with a battle power of only a few tens of thousands could destroy a planet.
Lin Chen was not afraid of facing powerful enemies. He was afraid that some lunatic might attack Planet Vegeta while he was away and blow up the entire planet. That would be a disaster.
"That is simple!"
Porunga's thunderous voice rang out, and his eyes lit up.
A moment later, Porunga said, "Your second wish has been granted! Now state your third and final wish!"
"Lin Chen, please state your third wish," Nail said as well.
"For my third wish, I want to acquire the Grand Elder's Potential Unleashing Technique!" Lin Chen declared loudly.
Lin Chen had coveted this ability for a long time. Although the Grand Elder's potential unleashing was not as powerful as the ability Old Kai would use later, it was still very useful in the early stages.
With this ability, Lin Chen could give the Saiyans' overall strength a boost.
It would also make up for his earlier decision not to choose a mission that could increase their strength.
"This wish is easy to grant!"
As Porunga's eyes glowed red once more, Lin Chen suddenly felt something flow into his mind. Immediately afterward, he saw a change in his personal status panel.
Host: Lin Chen Battle power: 1,360,000 Bloodline: Legendary Super Saiyan bloodline Skills: Instant Transmission, Ki Control, Beginner Martial Arts Prodigy talent, Basic Potential Unleashing Technique. Moves: Planet Crusher, Death Beam, Flame Wave, Kamehameha, Afterimage Technique.
"Saiyan, all your wishes have been granted. Farewell!" With that, Porunga rose into the sky, turned back into seven Dragon Balls, and scattered across Planet Namek.
The sky brightened once more. Brilliant sunlight shone down on the earth, bathing it in warmth and peace.
Satisfied that his wishes had been granted, Lin Chen smiled. He casually took a Tree of Might fruit out of his System Space and handed it to Nail.
"This is..."
"This is a Tree of Might fruit. It can increase battle power, but its main effects are strengthening the body and restoring vitality and mental power. Give it to the Grand Elder. It should extend his lifespan," Lin Chen said.
"Really? Thank you, then," Nail said gratefully.
Lin Chen had a feeling he would soon need Planet Namek's Shenron again, so giving the Grand Elder a Tree of Might fruit was also a way to strengthen his relationship with them.
While Lin Chen was summoning Shenron and having his wishes granted, a round spaceship landed on a planet in a corner of the universe.
This planet was called Planet King Cold 001.
As its name suggested, it was the headquarters of Frieza's father, King Cold.
As soon as the spaceship landed, a group of aliens surrounded it.
"Everyone aboard the ship, listen up! Come out immediately for inspection!"
Although the spaceship carried the Frieza Force's identification signal, its arrival had not been announced in advance, so the King Cold Force's soldiers remained on full alert.
Compared with the Frieza Force, the members of the King Cold Force were better trained.
Soon, the spaceship's hatch opened, and a purple figure stepped out.
"Don't attack! I'm Ginyu, captain of the Ginyu Force under the Frieza Force!"
"Captain Ginyu?"
The aliens froze for a moment, but they soon recognized the famous Captain Ginyu.
"Captain Ginyu, this is King Cold's territory. What is someone from the Frieza Force doing here?"
"I have urgent news for King Cold! King Frieza has been killed!" Ginyu said grimly.
Not long afterward, inside King Cold's palace, King Cold-who looked like Frieza's second form-heard the terrible news about his son.
In his fury, King Cold could barely control the ki within his body.
"What? My son Frieza is dead?"
Feeling the air around him tremble, Ginyu fearfully dropped to one knee. "I'm sorry, King Cold. Lord Frieza was killed by a Saiyan. His opponent appeared to be the Legendary Super Saiyan!"
King Cold swept his hand through the air. "A Super Saiyan? Ridiculous! That is nothing but a legend!"
"It isn't a legend! My lord, we encountered two Super Saiyans this time. One of them could even survive in a vacuum! That Saiyan beat King Frieza to death with his own hands!"
"And you? What were you doing while Frieza was being beaten to death?" King Cold glared at Ginyu.
"My lord... I'm sorry. I was aboard King Frieza's spaceship at the time. Their battle was already far beyond anything we could help with... But my lord, I have some information..."
Ginyu had intended to tell King Cold about the information concerning the Dragon Balls that he had overheard by chance.
As long as they found the seven Dragon Balls, they could bring Frieza back to life.
However, before Ginyu could finish speaking...
Whoosh!
A Death Beam pierced Ginyu's body.
King Cold's face darkened. "If you couldn't help my son, what right do you have to live?"
"Urgh! K-King Co..." Ginyu lay on the floor, unable to believe he was going to die just like this.
I came to bring King Cold news that could revive Frieza... I've always been loyal to the Frieza Race...
Why?
Why?!
King Cold left without looking back, tossing an order to his subordinates. "Burn that fellow's corpse at once! He disgusts me!"
"Yes, sir!"
A lizardlike alien saluted, then lifted Ginyu's body and carried him toward the room in the Royal Palace designated for burning corpses.
But just as the alien entered the cremation room with Captain Ginyu's body...
A voice suddenly rang out inside.
"Change!"
A purple light flared in the room, but everything immediately fell silent again.
A moment later, the lizardlike alien walked out, but his face now bore Captain Ginyu's trademark grin.
"Heh heh heh... I'm not going to die that easily!"
