Zarbon and Dodoria exchanged glances and told him the current year.
Frieza: "..."
A trace of joy flashed through his heart, and he fell into deep thought.
After a brief silence—
"Ho ho ho ho ho!"
Frieza suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so loudly and brilliantly that it echoed across the area.
Zarbon: "..."
Dodoria: "..."
The corners of their mouths twitched uncontrollably.
Lord Frieza is definitely gone in the head now.
He was beaten into this state, and he can still laugh so happily?
As expected of Lord Frieza—his mentality is unbelievably strong.
"Ho ho ho ho! Son Goku!" Frieza curled his lips into a grin. "If I count correctly… at this time, you shouldn't even be a Super Saiyan yet, right?"
Zarbon and Dodoria looked at each other again.
It's over.
Completely over.
Lord Frieza doesn't remember anything at all!
You were just knocked unconscious by Super Saiyan Goku!
And now you're saying he's not even a Super Saiyan?
Dodoria opened his mouth, wanting to explain everything that had just happened.
But Zarbon shot him a sharp look, stopping him.
If you tell the truth now, Lord Frieza might silence you—and I'll probably get dragged down with you.
Dodoria immediately understood the meaning in Zarbon's eyes.
After weighing it carefully, he decided Zarbon was right and swallowed his words.
Fortunately, Frieza didn't pay him any attention. He simply continued to sneer coldly.
After laughing for a long while, Frieza finally examined his body and tried to release his energy.
But soon, he shook his head in disappointment.
"No… My current strength isn't even one-tenth of my peak!" Frieza frowned slightly, then raised four fingers and chuckled. "Four months! Just four months, and I, Frieza, will return to my peak!"
Zarbon and Dodoria froze again.
So… he's not even at full strength right now?
"No, it won't take that long," Frieza corrected himself. "One month! Less than one month, and I'll reawaken my Golden form!"
He threw his head back and laughed wildly.
"I—Golden Frieza—have returned!"
Zarbon and Dodoria were completely confused.
Lord Frieza… what are you even talking about?
We don't understand a single word.
But Frieza was secretly overjoyed.
I really am favored by the heavens!
I was actually reborn!
The current Frieza was the future Golden Frieza who had died after fighting Goku and Vegeta.
His soul never went to hell.
Instead, it crossed time and space and returned to this body.
After learning the current year, Frieza was so excited he almost blew bubbles from his nose.
As he calculated the timeline, memories replayed in his mind like a movie.
At this point in time, I should've just been preparing to head to Namek.
Cooler called me over, saying he needed to arrange Lord Beerus's tasks.
After leaving Cooler, I went straight to Namek.
I remember that when I met him, he scolded me again.
We didn't part on good terms.
But back then, I couldn't beat him.
Now, it's different.
With a little training, I can grind him into the dirt.
After that, I went to Namek.
I searched for the Dragon Balls, but Vegeta and the Earthlings stole them and made their wish.
They even wiped out the Ginyu Force.
Then I beat Vegeta and the Earthlings senseless.
When I was about to kill Vegeta…
That Saiyan named Son Goku arrived from Earth.
At first, he was no match for me.
I only used half my power and crushed him.
That battle was truly earth-shaking.
He even fired a massive energy attack.
I almost died back then.
Fortunately, my power was overwhelming—but my tail was severed.
In my rage, I personally killed that bald little man, Krillin.
Then… then…
Goku transformed into a Super Saiyan out of fury.
From that moment on, my nightmare began.
He defeated me.
And worse—
He spared my life.
That humiliation was unbearable.
Later, my father and I went to Earth for revenge.
Then we ran into some Super Saiyan with a sword.
And I died just like that…
This time—
I, Frieza, will have my revenge!
I will wipe out Son Goku and that sword-wielding Super Saiyan!
Neither of them will survive!
"Go to Ea—"
Frieza was about to give the order to head to Earth when a flash of insight struck him.
Wait.
Why go to Earth?
Wouldn't it be better to go to Namek?
No matter what, Goku will eventually go there.
And…
Lord Beerus seems to be on Earth.
If I accidentally anger him, things will get ugly.
Better to behave for now.
I'll wait for Goku on Namek.
I'll kill that bald Krillin in front of him again.
Force him to turn Super Saiyan.
Then I'll become Golden Frieza.
And let him taste true despair!
Ho ho ho ho ho!
The more Frieza thought about it, the more satisfying this revenge plan felt.
Much better than killing Goku outright.
As for the wish…
What should I wish for?
Immortality isn't that great.
Even if I'm immortal, being trapped in hell forever is worse than death.
"Head to Namek."
Frieza changed his mind and decided to wait for Goku there.
As for the wish, he'd think about it on the way.
Worst case—
He'd grow five centimeters taller.
His true form was too short.
He was a whole head shorter than Goku.
That was a disadvantage in battle.
Zarbon: "..."
Dodoria: "..."
The two were speechless.
They had no idea how to persuade him.
After all, that Saiyan had clearly said:
Don't go to Namek.
Or he wouldn't be polite next time.
"Any problems?" Frieza rubbed his nose and smiled gently at them.
"N-No problem!" Zarbon replied hurriedly.
"N-No problem," Dodoria echoed.
"Come here, you two," Frieza said with a warm smile, looking almost kind.
A wave of nostalgia rose in his heart.
They were once my closest subordinates.
…It's been a long time.
I really missed them.
