Chapter 117: Love and Kill Part 1
After explaining his recent experiences to Bulma, Lin Chuan felt it was necessary to give an account of his experience. After all, their relationship was already established. If he completely ignored Bulma's feelings, it would be too selfish of him.
After explaining everything clearly, Lin Chuan again suggested sending Bulma back to Earth. Considering her safety, Bulma agreed to Lin Chuan's proposal. After all, as an ordinary person, staying on Namek would be a burden. She definitely wouldn't have come if not for others unable to pilot the spaceship. Now that she could return, it was the best outcome.
Using Instant Transmission to cross the stars, Lin Chuan sent Bulma back to Earth and then returned to Namek.
Initially, Lin Chuan planned to send the Grand Elder and all the Namekians to Earth so there would be no worries. However, the Grand Elder was unwilling, stating that he wanted to live and die with Namek. Since that was the case, Lin Chuan couldn't say much more.
After leaving the Grand Elder's location, Lin Chuan returned to the battlefield. Observing the ongoing battle, Lin Chuan evaluated it in his mind.
He had to say the strength of the Z fighters had greatly improved. Especially Raditz and Goku, who achieved power levels above one million after the Grand Elder had unlocked their potential.
Originally, Piccolo was the strongest among them, with Gohan being second. Now, Goku and Raditz had caught up. Piccolo's power level was a solid 1.5 million points. Although Raditz and Goku could only match him with special techniques, once these two guys used the secret techniques they learned from King Kai, they could crush Piccolo.
"Without using their full strength, they completely suppressed Frieza's first form. Their battle techniques have also far surpassed their fight against Vegeta!"
"But if you keep playing like this, Frieza will transform to his second form soon."
"By then, unless you can double your strength again, you'll be the ones getting suppressed."
Lin Chuan analyzed aloud. Others might not know, but he was clear.
Frieza's power level without transformation was 530,000 points. In his first form, Frieza's power level exceeded 1 million points. In his second form, Frieza's power level reached over 3 million points.
As long as Frieza transforms into his second form, Goku is the only one who can continue to suppress him with Kaio-Ken; the others must avoid the brunt of his power.
...
At this moment, the fierce battle was in full swing.
Raditz demonstrated his extraordinary combat power. With his unique techniques, even Frieza struggled to withstand in his first form. Frieza was doing his utmost to escape Raditz's pursuit, while Raditz relentlessly pressured him, giving Frieza no opportunity.
This left the emperor of the universe facing an unprecedented predicament, unable to move a single step.
"Damn, damn wild monkey! You've completely enraged me!!!" Frieza could no longer tolerate the continuous setbacks.
Raging helplessly, Frieza's resistance and his roars became Raditz's trophies.
"Hahahaha~! Is that all you can do, Frieza? You, who were once the emperor of the universe, have been utterly left behind by this era in front of me."
"The new era's ship has abandoned you. After defeating you! I, Raditz, will be the new emperor of the universe!"
During his attacks, Raditz's taunts never ceased.
Raditz seemed to already envision himself atop the throne of the universe's emperor after defeating Frieza.
Because of the thrill of revenge, he lost himself.
He didn't even consider that this so-called Emperor of the Universe was merely a dream he once chased.
Now, he didn't need to care about those things at all.
His true goal should be to follow in Taros's footsteps and become a Super Saiyan.
Facing Raditz's taunts again, Frieza's expression turned ferocious.
His burly figure kept throwing punches and kicks with terrifyingly powerful attacks. However, he could barely defend against Raditz's onslaught despite this.
He could harm Frieza's body if Raditz exerted more force and speed.
Fear arose from within, and Frieza even felt the threat of death.
Raditz could kill him if he continued like this and couldn't complete the next stage of his transformation.
"Damn it! This wretched monkey has no intention of giving me a chance to breathe!" Understanding Raditz's intent, Frieza thought to himself.
Accept his fate? Impossible!
With a flash of cunning in his eyes, Frieza gathered his strength and unleashed a shocking Super Energy Wave.
The explosion ignited flames and thick smoke, enveloping the sky.
The attack could have been more potent but served well as a cover.
Naturally, in the next second, Frieza was shocked again.
Because his smokescreen could hide his presence, Raditz was unaffected, punching him away once again.
He didn't know that he could still lock onto his energy even if Raditz couldn't see him.
There was no way he would let him escape.
However, this punch sent Frieza flying, and Raditz stopped his attack, preparing to taunt further to showcase his strength.
He didn't realize that this gave Frieza a chance to catch his breath and turn the tide.
Landing on the island, Frieza's eyes were bloodshot.
His burly body was covered in scars, making one shudder.
Without any hesitation, Frieza directly unleashed the immense energy within his body.
Second Transformation in progress.
In the sky, Raditz was still showing off.
"Frieza! Is this as far as you go? Heh heh heh heh~! Today, I'll show you the terror of us Saiyans!"
"Take a good look at how powerful I am now!"
With a shout, Raditz raised his fists to the sky, then released them to his sides as if unleashing his power.
Not only did he showcase his muscular physique, but he also fully released the power within him.
The blood aura around Raditz grew thicker.
Although this wasn't the Kaioken, it was a technique that was equal to it.
When Vegeta invaded Earth, Raditz's skill limit was a 50% power boost.
With full release, he could increase his combat power by 100%.
So, Raditz's combat power had now reached 2 million points.
Two million points of combat power!
Under the terrifying aura, everyone in the area was affected.
Everyone was shocked; even Piccolo couldn't help but be moved.
If he was like that, let alone Tien Shinhan, Krillin, Yamcha, and Chiaotzu.
And Goku?
He, too, clenched his fists excitedly.
He also wanted to fight a good battle, but since his big brother had stepped in, he had to wait.
On one side, there was also Vegeta.
At this moment, his mood had completely plummeted.
Although he enjoyed seeing Frieza crushed and avenging his hatred, he didn't want to see Raditz crushing Frieza.
As the prince of the Saiyans, he had now become the most ridiculous figure.
