"Hahahaha!"
Vegeta laughed wildly and launched energy waves recklessly, destroying the entire landscape beyond recognition. Mountains crumbled and forests burned as he reveled in his newfound power.
"Are you so excited with just this little strength? I heard that you want to seek revenge on Frieza, which is admirable. However, Frieza's strength is not as weak as you think. With your current power, there's no better result than giving the Ginyu Force a free kill." Vegeta's arrogance was getting on Karnel's nerves, so he reminded him casually.
"That's right... I shouldn't get too carried away. Frieza isn't something I can deal with right now, but the Senzu Beans are already..." Vegeta came back to his senses, looked at the empty bag, and cast his eager eyes toward Karnel again.
You're addicted to this, aren't you? And you have severe masochistic tendencies...
Karnel put his hands behind his back and adopted the pose of a master. "As for Senzu Beans, I still have some. I gave them to you before just to let you verify that what I said wasn't a lie. Now..."
Vegeta, who had experienced the rocket-like increase in strength, had become completely addicted. "Tell me, what do you want in exchange for giving me more Senzu Beans?"
"As for conditions, I don't think I need your help with anything, so forget it!" Karnel thought about it. What he wanted to accomplish could be easily done with his current strength. If he couldn't do it himself, then Vegeta's measly 100,000 combat power would be useless and not worth mentioning.
"However, I can still give you some Senzu Beans. Just agree to one request of mine, it's that simple." Looking at Vegeta's eager expression as he sought revenge on Frieza, Karnel said with an amused smile.
Vegeta paused, his face darkening with suspicion.
"Haha! Don't worry, I won't make any excessive demands, and I haven't thought of it yet. Just remember that you owe me this." Karnel laughed, keeping half of his remaining hundred-plus Senzu Beans for himself and throwing the other half to Vegeta.
Vegeta showed a euphoric expression, looking exactly like a drug addict getting his fix.
The inhumane abuse continued in a jungle somewhere on this planet, with the victim Vegeta actually enjoying every moment. If there was anyone here now, they would probably be stunned and would take Vegeta to a mental hospital for intensive treatment.
10 times! 25 times!
55 times!
When the last Senzu Bean was consumed, Vegeta looked completely recovered, with a smug expression plastered across his face.
"250,000!" Raditz announced, seeing Vegeta approaching and obviously knowing what he was going to ask.
Vegeta looked at his hands in ecstasy. In just half a day, he had reached such a high combat power that had never been achieved in the history of the Saiyans! It was truly unimaginable! This was absolutely impossible in his eyes before. If someone had dared to say such a thing in front of him, he would have been furious.
"We Saiyans are supreme! All you bastards like the Frost Demon clan and Frieza must die!" Vegeta was drunk on his Saiyan pride, convinced that Saiyan potential was unlimited!
Karnel covered his forehead and was speechless. Has Vegeta regressed to acting like a middle schooler? This is really hard to watch.
"Karnel, I have become a Super Saiyan too! Haha! I can't wait to go back and kill that stinking dog Frieza with my own hands." Vegeta was acting like a madman, and when he thought of Frieza, his entire body radiated murderous aura, showing just how much he hated the tyrant.
Karnel sneered and attacked his delusions: "Do you think Super Saiyan is a toy? So easy to achieve? Your current strength is just a little stronger than before, you're still far from being a Super Saiyan."
"What? Impossible! No Saiyan on Planet Vegeta has ever been as strong as I am now. If I'm not considered a Super Saiyan, then who else can be called one?" Vegeta, full of self-confidence, didn't believe Karnel's words at all.
Karnel said lightly, "Really? I remember there was a baby with a combat power of 10,000 at birth on Planet Vegeta. Didn't King Vegeta tell you about it? Oh, I'm afraid he really didn't tell you. After all, a baby with 10,000 combat power at birth would be enough to threaten King Vegeta's ruling position. I guess this baby was dealt with by him."
"Born with 10,000 combat power... Are you kidding me?" Vegeta screamed. He was supposed to be a genius among the Saiyans, and he was only born with 1,000!
"Your father just didn't tell you that this baby is the real legendary Super Saiyan, with extremely terrifying strength. Compared with him, your current strength isn't even as good as an ant." Karnel laughed coldly.
Vegeta calmed down and said coldly, "So what? You also said that he has been killed by my father!"
Dead? How could Broly die so easily?
Karnel waved his hand and said indifferently, "True, there really is nothing to say about the dead. I should go now. Farewell!"
"Wait! Does the invincible and terrifying Super Saiyan you mentioned really exist? Do you know something? Or have you become a Super Saiyan yourself?" Calming down, Vegeta had to believe what Karnel said. After all, he was so much stronger than himself, there was no need to deceive him. What would be the point?
"I do know, but I won't tell you. Because you are not the real Saiyan Prince Vegeta yet, at best, you are just a thug." Karnel chuckled mockingly.
I am not myself?
Vegeta was confused by this and asked, "What do you mean? I don't understand at all."
"You are not the real you now. When you wear the golden halo one day, bah, no! When one day you meet a kind, innocent Saiyan who does not despise you and wishes to merge his spirit with yours and become one with you, don't hesitate. Follow his footsteps closely and you will soon be able to break through to the coveted Super Saiyan transformation, or even a higher realm of power..."
Karnel's voice trailed off mysteriously as he began to rise into the air, leaving Vegeta with more questions than answers. The prince of all Saiyans stood there, powerful yet still incomplete, clutching his newfound strength while yearning for something greater that remained frustratingly out of reach.
