Hearing this, Black's expression changed drastically in fright, "Wait! I am useful! I am still useful! I know all of Dr. Gero's strongholds, and I can take you to find him!"
"There's no need!" Neo wore an indifferent expression, "This place must have been bugged with surveillance by Dr. Gero, and he has already seen everything that happened. Naturally, he has also witnessed your betrayal. Do you think he will still go to those strongholds you know about?"
Black's expression changed once more, and then he decisively turned around, running toward a mecha placed in a corner inside the laboratory...
"Meaningless struggle!" Seeing this, Neo extended a finger, and a Ki Blast shot out from his fingertips, turning into a beam of light that instantly pierced through his back...
With an Instant Transmission, Neo appeared high above the headquarters, condensed a washbasin-sized sphere of light in his palm, and hurled it down at the Red Ribbon Army headquarters below!
After a deafening bang, the Red Ribbon Army headquarters, which had brought disaster to the region, was thus reduced to ruins...
The Red Ribbon Army would also be struck from the records from this point on.
Looking at the ruins below him and carefully sensing the surroundings to make sure not a single living soul was left behind, Neo then pursued the aura he sensed nearby...
But unfortunately, those people he sensed were not Dr. Gero, but rather a few villagers captured by Dr. Gero for research. They had been released by Dr. Gero to create a distraction, while Dr. Gero himself had probably already taken a flight vehicle and fled God knows where.
"What a pity, to actually let him escape!" Neo wore a vexed expression. He considered his actions swift and decisive with no dragging of feet throughout the process, but even so, he still let Dr. Gero get away. One could only say that a high-IQ scientist truly had some tricks up his sleeve when it came to running away. Could it be that his time was simply not up yet?
It was a pity that he had never met Dr. Gero and simply had no way to accurately distinguish his ki; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fly away. But now that he had let him run off like this, it was tantamount to searching for a needle in a haystack, making it even harder to find him in the future.
"Forget it, if I didn't find him, I didn't find him! With my understanding of the plot, I refuse to believe I can't even handle a few Androids." Neo quickly let it go, took out the dragon radar, looked at the indications on it, and streaked away through the air...
In the next two hours, Neo found the remaining 3-star ball and 5-star ball in the deep sea and the primitive jungle. With this, all seven dragon balls were completely collected.
However, he did not rush back immediately; instead, he planned to make a trip to Korin Tower. The Senzu Beans there were good stuff and more than enough in the early stages. He had to take them all into his own hands before Yajirobe could squander them. As long as he had enough Senzu Beans in his hands, he could exploit the Saiyan bug and combine it with the gravity room to rapidly grow stronger.
Neo didn't know where Korin Tower was. He asked several people and bought a map, and only then did he find Korin Tower according to the indications on the map.
Above the clouds, Neo hovered a thousand meters high in the sky, looking at the tall tower in front of him whose top still couldn't be seen at a glance. His heart grew somewhat excited: "This should be Korin Tower, right?"
His excitement was simply because he was about to obtain the strongest recovery divine medicine in dragon ball—Senzu Beans.
Combined with the traits of a Saiyan, it was simply a perfect match. No matter what, he could no longer let Yajirobe ruin the Senzu Beans!
Neo used the Levitation Technique, rapidly ascending into the air and flying toward the top of Korin Tower...
Soon, he landed at the top of the tower, but didn't see the expected figure. Immediately, he politely shouted, "Is anyone there?"
Not long after his voice trailed off, he heard a burst of footsteps approaching, and then saw a door not far away open. A fat cat with a bloated figure, carrying a crutch in its hand, and walking upright strolled out slowly.
Squinting its eyes, it looked Neo up and down: "What a rare visitor! It's been a very long time since a guest came here."
Looking at the fat cat in front of him, Neo immediately locked onto its identity: "You are the immortal of this Korin Tower?"
After seeing Neo's face clearly, Korin was visibly stunned, forcing a stiff smile onto its cat face: "Uh~ Hello! I am indeed the immortal of this Korin Tower. How can I help you?"
On the surface, Korin pretended to be calm, but in reality, Korin was extremely nervous inside. After all, not long ago, he had personally witnessed the scene where Neo wiped out the Red Ribbon Army headquarters, and that single Ki Blast was comparable to the deity above him.
"What is this pervert doing running over to my place? He wouldn't kill me on a whim, would he?"
"I'm here to ask for a few Senzu Beans." Neo cut straight to the chase, directly stating his purpose.
Hearing this, Korin visibly breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on its face: "So it's just for Senzu Beans! Easy to talk about, easy to talk about!... But to get rewards from me, normally, you need to pass my trial..."
"A trial?" The corners of Neo's mouth curved into a playful arc, and his aura leaked out slightly, a sense of oppression instantly shrouding Korin: "Are you sure I still need a trial with my current strength?"
"Of course not!" Korin was badly frightened by the mere trace of ki released by Neo, and hurriedly changed his words: "I was just explaining the rules here to you. With your strength, naturally you don't need to undergo a trial. Wait for me a moment, I will go get the Senzu Beans for you right now."
Saying this, Korin turned and left, entering his own house...
Not long after, he was seen walking out carrying a bulging bag and handing it to Neo: "Here, these are the Senzu Beans you mentioned! They are not easy to grow, so you must eat them sparingly."
Looking at the bag full of Senzu Beans, Neo was ecstatic! This Korin was quite generous, unexpectedly giving so many all at once, enough for him to use for a very long time.
"Thanks. If you have nothing else to do later, just grow more of these Senzu Beans, the more the better. Conversely, if you have anything you need my help with, just feel free to tell me. If it's something I can do, I certainly won't refuse!"
Hearing this, Korin's eyes couldn't help but light up. Being able to obtain a promise from such a powerhouse meant that no matter how many Senzu Beans were given away, it wasn't a loss!
Korin immediately said with a beaming smile: "Then it's a deal! If something comes up, I will definitely contact you."
Saying this, he looked toward the top of his head again and said, "Right above me, there also lives a god of Earth. Do you want to go meet him?"
"There's no need for that, let's talk about it later!" Neo immediately refused. Since he didn't need the Room of Spirit and Time yet, there was no need to go see him.
Saying that, Neo put away the Senzu Beans and waved at Korin: "I'll head back first, just call me if anything comes up!"
Then, with an Instant Transmission, he returned to Bulma's home.
