Zarbon and Dodoria shook their heads in unison.
Their movements were perfectly synchronized, their faces filled with awe and confusion.
They both knew one thing—Frieza was unfathomably powerful.
An unquestionable ruler of the universe.
But as for his actual power level…
Even after serving him for years, they had never been told—nor had they ever dared to ask.
"My power level…" Frieza spoke slowly, enunciating each word with calm indifference.
"It is 120 million."
Silence.
That number—
Like the birth of the universe itself—
A silent explosion echoed through the luxurious palace.
Zarbon and Dodoria froze completely.
Their mouths hung open as meaningless sounds escaped their throats. Their minds simply… stopped.
120 million?!
What kind of number was that?
What kind of overwhelming, absolute power gap did it represent?
"Hohohoho…" Frieza let out a delighted laugh, his body trembling slightly as his floating pod swayed along with him.
"How amusing. Once I finish dealing with these trivial matters, perhaps I'll take a trip to Earth."
"To see this Saiyan called Broly…"
"And verify whether his son truly has a power level of 15 million… hohohoho!"
His laughter echoed through the hall—
Full of pure amusement.
To him, this was nothing more than entertainment.
Zarbon and Dodoria, however, remained silent.
Still trapped in the terror of that number.
120 million…
Vegeta…
That foolish Saiyan prince…
He still harbors thoughts of rebellion.
But with his mere 18,000 power level, trying to oppose someone with 120 million…
That wasn't rebellion.
That was suicide.
The gap between them wasn't a difference—
It was an unbridgeable abyss.
Earth — Kame House Island
Sunlight bathed the peaceful island once again.
The sea breeze carried a salty scent, brushing across the coconut trees and sandy shore.
Raditz had already returned.
At this moment, he was clumsily repairing the damaged wooden house using crude tools and mismatched planks.
His movements were stiff and awkward, his face drenched in sweat.
Annoyance and helplessness filled his eyes—
Yet he didn't dare stop.
Vrrrr—
The sound of an engine broke the island's calm.
A silver-gray jet helicopter descended gracefully from the sky.
As the rotor blades stirred the sand—
The cabin door slid open.
Broly, Launch, Bulma, Krillin, Master Roshi, Piccolo, Branch, and the others stepped out one by one.
Son Gohan was carried down by Son Goku.
"Mr. Broly! I-I'm fixing your house! It'll be done soon—very soon!"
Raditz immediately dropped his hammer and ran over, bowing repeatedly with a forced, flattering smile.
But as he smiled—
His missing front teeth were clearly visible.
The result of Broly's earlier slap.
Broly didn't respond.
His gaze shifted toward the house—
And instantly, his expression darkened.
Raditz's "repair work" was…
An absolute disaster.
Uneven planks of different sizes and colors had been crudely nailed over the holes.
Gaps were everywhere.
Some boards weren't even properly secured.
The wind made them creak loudly.
It looked terrible.
"This… is your repair?" Broly asked coldly.
"Y-yes…" Raditz trembled, drenched in cold sweat.
"I said restore it to its original condition."
"Not this half-hearted patchwork."
Broly raised a finger.
"I'll give you one more hour."
"If it's still like this…"
He didn't finish the sentence.
He didn't need to.
"I-I understand! I'll redo it right away!"
Raditz panicked and rushed back, frantically tearing down the planks he had just nailed in.
But soon—
He froze.
Looking at the hole… the tools… the materials…
He had no idea what to do.
For a Saiyan warrior trained only to destroy—
Building something was far more difficult than conquering a planet.
Krillin sighed softly.
Unable to bear it, he walked over and handed Raditz a measuring tape.
"Measure first… then cut the boards properly."
Raditz instinctively said, "Thanks… you're actually a good guy."
Then immediately glared at him.
Krillin flinched and backed away.
Raditz awkwardly began measuring—
Completely unskilled.
It looked… ridiculous.
A New Arrival
Whoosh—!
A sharp sound cut through the sky.
A small red aircraft approached and landed clumsily on the beach.
The hatch opened—
And a short, chubby man with a katana and a toothpick jumped out.
"It's Yajirobe!" Goku called out excitedly.
Yajirobe walked over lazily.
"I'm not here for fun," he said.
"The Guardian sent me to deliver a message."
"Guardian?" Goku became serious.
"He said he knows a better place for training. Way better than Earth."
"Go see him at the Lookout."
Goku's eyes lit up.
"Really?! That's perfect!"
He immediately waved to everyone.
"I'm heading there! See you in ten months!"
Gohan tugged his clothes.
"Dad… can I stay here a bit longer? I want to play with Branch…"
Goku smiled.
"Alright, stay here."
Then—
"Flying Nimbus!"
Whoosh—!
Goku rode off into the sky.
Yajirobe's Request
"Heh, Broly! Long time no see!" Yajirobe grinned.
"Use that treasure pot and get me some food!"
"What do you want?" Broly asked calmly.
"The full course menu!"
Krillin facepalmed.
"That's a lot…"
"Shut up!" Yajirobe snapped.
"You bald guys don't understand food!"
Broly began calmly reciting dishes—
As food continuously appeared from the Gourmet Treasure Pot.
Yajirobe skillfully packed everything into capsules.
Even Raditz stopped working—
Staring in shock.
This thing…
Really could create any food.
New Cuisine
Yajirobe handed Broly a paper.
"These are ancient recipes!"
Broly read:
"Braised Sea Cucumber… Sweet and Sour Carp… Kung Pao… Four Happiness Meatballs…"
Krillin grew curious.
Master Roshi nodded.
"These are ancient dishes… long lost."
"Try it," Krillin said.
Broly did.
One by one—
Dishes appeared instantly.
Soon—
Thirty plates filled the tables.
The aroma spread across the island.
Everyone sat down to eat.
Except—
Raditz.
He stood in the distance.
Holding tools.
Staring.
Swallowing.
Krillin picked up a piece of food.
"This… is 'Nine-Turn Intestine'?"
He examined it carefully.
Something felt…
Off.
The texture…
The smell…
It seemed a bit too…
authentic.
