The special care medical room at the Sixth Branch Base.
Vegeta struggled to open his eyes from his hospital bed.
The excruciating pain has not yet subsided.
He was wrapped in strong medical bandages like a mummy.
My consciousness was still a little hazy, and everything in front of me was blurry.
Then, the door slid open, and Bulma came in carrying a plate containing a nutritious meal.
Upon seeing Vegeta awake, her face was filled with displeasure and resentment.
"You're awake, you lunatic."
"I'm telling you, if this happens again, I won't help you!"
Bulma walked to the bedside and slammed the plate she was holding onto the bedside table to express her emotions.
"Seriously!"
She stood with her hands on her hips, looking down at him as she berated him.
"Don't you know you can't even get Senzu Bean? Do you really think you have multiple lives?"
Vegeta gradually came to his senses after being yelled at like that.
He snorted coldly, completely ignoring the excruciating pain in his body, and tried to forcefully prop himself up with his arms.
However, a piercing pain shot through his ribs, causing him to gasp and fall heavily back down as he had just managed to sit up halfway.
Damn it!
Were even the bones broken?
"My affairs are none of your business!"
"I... absolutely cannot lose to him!"
Bulma looked down disdainfully.
"It's none of my business! If I didn't care about you, you'd be buried by now!"
"If you lose your life, who can you surpass?"
As she spoke, Bulma took two Senzu Bean out of her pocket.
"This is what Little Son and I asked for; it's all he has. If you want to get yourself killed again, you'd better pray for good luck!"
Bulma's tone was anything but friendly as she casually tossed the two green beans over.
Vegeta wasn't unaware of what Senzu Bean were.
In the period immediately following his arrival at the Sixth Branch.
Senzu Bean are not yet regulated.
He also received a few from Kakarot and Bulma.
He reached out his still-movable hand and caught the two beans, unusually refraining from Bulma's complaints.
He tilted his head back and swallowed both Senzu Bean at the same time.
The moment the Senzu Bean touches your mouth.
His bones emitted a dense and terrifying popping sound, like popping beans!
The broken ribs healed instantly!
The torn muscle fibers are being frantically repaired and strengthened, and the power they contain is increasing rapidly!
The Saiyan' terrifying ability to revive after being near death and experience a dramatic increase in Power Level was fully activated at this moment, operating wildly in an unprecedented manner!
This feeling...
That's wonderful!
strength!
An endless sense of power!
It was impacting his limbs and bones!
A visible, tangible shockwave exploded outwards from Vegeta!
The high-strength medical bandages wrapped around his head and limbs instantly disintegrated!
The shockwave knocked some of the instruments in the room over and over!
"Ah--!"
Bulma only had time to let out a short scream before she was thrown to the ground by the unreasonable blast of air.
Vegeta slowly stood up from the hospital bed.
He clenched his fists tightly, feeling the unprecedented, terrifying power that threatened to burst him apart.
Bulma, who had been knocked to the ground, looked at Vegeta, who had his back to her and looked like a demon god descending to earth.
She leaned against the wall and stood up unsteadily.
He rubbed his head and then angrily started cursing at Vegeta!
" Vegeta! What are you doing!"
"Don't go crazy here!"
"Can you afford to pay for the things you break?"
This roar briefly brought Vegeta back to his senses from the exhilarating feeling of power.
He turned around slowly, his face tense.
After a brief hesitation, he asked the question that concerned him most.
Where is Kakarot?
Bulma stared at Vegeta for a long time before deflated like a punctured balloon, looking completely helpless.
She forcefully suppressed the urge to curse, turned her head away, and refused to look at Vegeta again.
" Little Son is gone."
"They've left?"
Vegeta's arrogant expression slowly froze, his brows furrowed, and he asked in bewilderment.
"That's right, he and Piccolo left the base, saying they were going on some mission."
Bulma explained impatiently, while checking the instruments in the room for any damage.
Task?
Vegeta's mind raced.
Kakarot... and that Namekian...
These two guys actually came out at the same time?
He knew that these two were the base... and possibly the two most powerful people in the universe besides the vanished Frieza!
What kind of mission requires the two of them to work together?
Vegeta could think of were enemies beyond his wildest imagination!
In an instant, an indescribable surge of joy welled up inside me!
Isn't this exactly what he's been dreaming of?
A perfect opportunity to test his newfound power!
This is his chance to avenge himself and completely crush Kakarot!
He soon felt intense anxiety again.
"When did they leave?!"
Vegeta even closed his eyes.
Trying to use my breath to search for something.
Bulma didn't even bother to turn around, and simply waved her hand dismissively.
"We've only been gone for less than half a day."
Upon hearing this, Vegeta was immediately driven by the determination and urgency in his heart.
He walked out of the room without a second thought!
He completely ignored Bulma's calls.
Only four words remained in his mind. " Kakarot!"
When Vegeta reappeared in the base's wide corridor, he was already wearing a brand-new elastic Battle Suit.
He didn't want to waste even a second!
They walked straight to the base's helipad.
There, several single-soldier spherical spaceships, ready for deployment, lay quietly at rest.
He quickly climbed into one of the boats, and the hatch slowly closed.
Without hesitation, they took to the air!
The spaceship violently broke through the atmosphere of the Sixth Branch Base Planet and plunged into the vast and boundless deep space of space.
He retrieved the departure records from the base airport from the Dragon Radar operating interface.
He quickly locked onto an extremely faint flight path data, almost disappearing into the cosmic microwave background radiation.
This is it!
Inside the pitch-black cockpit, only the light from the screen illuminated Vegeta's face, which was filled with confidence and determination.
" Kakarot!"
"You're not getting away!"
"I will never allow you to become Super Saiyan before me!"
"Absolutely not!"
His spaceship left a blinding trail of light in the dark sea of stars until it disappeared...
