REVIEWS AND POWERSTONES PLSSS!!!!!Chapter 91: Towa
"Broly?"
Just as Turles prepared entering the spatial shuttle, he suddenly sensed Broly's ki—Broly's full-power explosive ki.
His thoughts turned. Turles immediately understood the truth. Bulma must have used spatial knowledge to reopen that bronze gate after he'd been gone so long.
Turles always deeply trusted Bulma's scientific abilities.
Thinking how Bulma had guarded that bronze gate, exhausting herself researching how to find that spatial rift after his departure, Turles felt somewhat guilty.
Pressing the shuttle's start button, under Clark's shocked gaze, Turles suddenly slammed the shuttle door shut. He nodded at Clark, then directly powered up and shot outside.
Not that Turles didn't want using Instant Transmission. Rather, this location's space was too stable. Moreover, the spatial nodes here were far too numerous. Turles couldn't possibly connect this location's spatial nodes with Broly's location in such short time.
Turles's sudden departure left Clark and the two demons who'd brought them confused. But before either could question Clark, the shuttle had already started, directly carrying Clark toward a spatial passage.
After Turles burst from the building, feeling space relax, he immediately activated Instant Transmission, vanishing before the Demon Realm law enforcement squad that had rushed over after receiving an alarm.
"What happened? Where is he?" one enforcer asked.
"Spatial teleportation. Immediately lock onto that ki signature and pursue!" The experienced commander immediately issued orders.
"Should we issue an arrest warrant?"
"Not yet. I'll investigate the situation first!" After thinking, the commander rejected his subordinate's suggestion and walked into the building behind him.
Turles hadn't guessed wrong. Bulma had indeed used spatial knowledge Turles obtained from Shenron, plus her previous research, to invent a machine capable of opening spatial passages in just two months.
Currently, Broly and Bulma had just entered the Demon Realm through the spatial passage.
"Bulma, how do we find Turles? He can perfectly hide his ki. Even I have no way to pinpoint his location!"
Though they'd already entered the Demon Realm, Broly now felt troubled.
Turles didn't know they'd enter this world. Given Turles's habits, he probably wouldn't explode his ki unless absolutely necessary.
Hearing Broly's words, Bulma also felt this made sense. After thinking, she suggested to Broly, "Like this, Broly—explode your ki with full effort now. I believe once Turles senses your ki, he'll definitely use Instant Transmission to come!"
Hearing Bulma's suggestion, Broly also felt this was a good method.
Just as Broly prepared exploding his ki, he suddenly glanced at Bulma. Next second, he directly shot skyward, flying to midair.
"Ahhh!!!"
Broly began shouting. His ki started rising. White flames appeared around his body.
After two months of training, Broly had completely stabilized the battle power he'd gained fighting Frieza. His current battle power was now solidly sixty million in normal state.
So Broly's current ki explosion scene was more terrifying than any Bulma had witnessed before.
The sky's clouds were blown apart by Broly's powerful ki. Red lightning appeared around Broly's increasingly powerful aura. Bulma could even feel the earth shaking. She had to lift her toes off the ground, floating in midair.
However, Broly's such ostentatious display quickly attracted Demon Realm natives' attention.
Swish!
An air-splitting sound rang out. A blue-skinned demon with horns appeared before Broly.
"A human?" Seeing such a phenomenon caused by a human, the blue-skinned demon felt somewhat surprised.
Not all demons couldn't sense ki. The Demon Realm had existed for so long. Demons' lifespans were generally longer than humans'. Combined with the Demon Realm's endless conflicts, it was hard to imagine how many secrets this land hid.
This demon happened to be able to sense ki.
In the Demon Realm, the cruel survival environment forced all demons to learn how to measure their enemies. Those who approached after knowing Broly's battle power definitely had some skills.
Broly ignored this demon. He continued raising his ki, just hoping Turles could sense it quickly.
"Hmph!" Seeing Broly ignore him, the demon's face immediately darkened. He snorted coldly. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he watched Broly.
But next second, his expression changed. Because Broly's power increase continued without stopping.
This demon didn't dare let Broly continue rising. He directly fired an energy blast at Broly.
Broly naturally sensed this world had many strong fighters. But they didn't include this demon before him.
Seeing the demon attack, Broly wasn't polite. After dodging the energy blast with a flash, he immediately charged the demon.
Broly's speed was very fast. In Bulma's vision, it was like teleportation. The previous second he was in place—blinking, he'd already appeared before the demon. Then he began launching continuous attacks on the demon.
The demon was initially startled by Broly's speed. But he quickly reacted, withstanding Broly's attacks.
The two thus began battling in the air. The terrifying waves from their collisions continuously spread outward.
Bulma had long known these "non-human" battles weren't something a weak woman like her could spectate. So from the start, she'd hidden far away, avoiding being caught in the crossfire.
But Bulma didn't know that as she distanced herself from the battlefield, she'd already been targeted. A giant insect had stealthily lurked behind her, slowly approaching.
The giant insect came behind Bulma, slowly opening its fearsome maw. Saliva continuously dripped to the ground. Accompanied by sizzling sounds, it corroded large holes in the earth.
Feeling something wrong, Bulma suddenly turned her head. A mouth already opened wide, revealing densely packed teeth, appeared right before her eyes. Bulma could even see the wriggling flesh inside the mouth parts.
Bulma released a shriek, immediately turning to run.
Seeing its prey escaping, the giant insect roared and chased after Bulma.
In this Demon Realm, even an insect exceeded what Bulma's strength could handle. Let alone this giant insect taller than her.
Before long, Bulma was caught up. Seeing prey within reach, the insect's bean-sized eyes showed cruelty. Next second, it opened its giant mouth to swallow Bulma.
Watching that giant mouth gradually approach, despairing Bulma couldn't help shouting, "Turles!"
Swish!
At this critical moment, having sensed Broly's ki, Turles finally arrived at the battlefield via Instant Transmission. Too late to check the situation, he heard Bulma's call.
Turles couldn't think. He activated Instant Transmission again. Reappearing, he'd already blocked Bulma's path.
Bulma saw the suddenly appearing figure and cried out with surprise, "Turles!"
Turles ignored Bulma. Just watched the approaching giant insect with cold eyes. The killing intent in his gaze fell on the insect like substance.
"Die!"
As Turles's word fell, two beams shot from his eyes. They directly pierced through the insect's mouth parts. An explosion sounded. The insect's head directly exploded into fragments.
After eliminating the insect, Turles turned around. Seeing the already tear-streaked Bulma, pity flashed through his eyes. He said softly, "Bulma..."
A fragrant breeze flashed past. Turles only felt his waist tighten. Looking down, Bulma had already thrown herself into his arms. Her arms tightly hugged Turles's waist, as if fearing next second Turles would vanish again.
Turles raised both hands, gently placing them on Bulma's back. Burying his head in her hair, he said softly, "I'm sorry, Bulma. I made you worry!"
Bulma didn't speak. Just slightly shook her head. But her hands still tightly hugged Turles's waist.
Feeling the gentleness in his arms, Turles sighed inwardly.
Turles knew—for him, only a few days had passed. But for Bulma, several months had already gone by.
This was the first time they'd been separated so long since confirming their relationship. Seeing her haggard face, Turles could already guess how much Bulma had sacrificed during these months.
Thinking this, Turles couldn't help pulling Bulma tighter into his embrace.
The two thus enjoyed their reunion's warmth.
While Turles enjoyed warmth here, Broly's battle had entered white-hot intensity.
The demon's strength somewhat exceeded Broly's expectations. Currently, Broly had already raised his battle power to maximum. His sixty-million battle power made every attack cause spatial tremors.
The demon's performance was equally matched, even exceeding Broly slightly. He not only easily received Broly's attacks but continuously counterattacked.
Bang!
Another massive sound. Broly and the demon's fists fiercely collided. Terrifying air waves spread outward with them at the center.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Air waves struck the ground. The earth appeared somewhat fragile under these waves. Cracks appeared. The flying debris hadn't even scattered before being shattered into powder.
Seeing he hadn't defeated Broly after so long, the demon felt somewhat annoyed. But as someone who'd fought his way up from the bottom, he cared most about his own life. Moreover...
The demon glanced at the somehow-appeared Turles. Seeing that tail at his waist matching Broly's, he figured this one wasn't easy to provoke either. Most critically, the demon couldn't sense any ki from Turles.
For his life's sake, the demon's heart already held retreat intentions.
Noticing the demon's eyes flickering, how could Broly not guess his plans? Just as he prepared continuing his attack, next moment he looked toward the distance. His expression grew extremely grave.
Turles currently also appeared beside Broly. Moreover, he'd already transformed into humanoid Great Ape form. Equally grave-faced, he watched the distance.
"Broly, be careful!"
Turles's lips moved slightly. His voice was barely audible.
Broly nodded. Still staring intently at the black dots beginning to appear in the sky.
Seeing Turles and Broly both preparing to attack together, the demon immediately watched them warily. But he soon discovered they weren't looking at him.
Just as he felt puzzled, as if sensing something, his body suddenly twisted. Expression terrified, he looked at the several figures appearing on the horizon.
As the shadows approached, Turles also clearly saw the newcomers' faces.
Five people total. But Turles's gaze immediately fell on the woman in the center.
Seeing this woman, Turles's pupils immediately contracted. Because from her attire, Turles's heart had a guess about the newcomer's identity.
The woman wore a white lab coat, looking like a scientist. But beneath the white coat was a red bodysuit, displaying her voluptuous figure to extreme perfection.
Black stockings paired with red high heels gave the newcomer a uniquely different allure.
"Towa!"
The demon saw the woman's appearance. His blue face began turning greenish. Stuttering, he spoke the newcomer's name.
Hearing this name, Turles's heart immediately sank.
Towa walked with elegant steps, unhurried, reaching before the three. After glancing at the demon, she placed her gaze on Turles and Broly.
Towa's unrestrained gaze continuously examined both. Especially Turles—clearly she watched him longer than Broly.
Finally, Turles could even feel the heat in Towa's eyes. Like seeing delicious prey.
After seeing Towa ignored him, not only did the demon show no dissatisfaction, he actually relaxed. Then he looked at Turles with pity.
In his view, being targeted by Demon King Dabura's sister Towa—the outcome definitely wouldn't be better than being targeted by Demon King Dabura himself.
Naturally, Turles didn't know the demon's thoughts. Towa's gaze made him somewhat uncomfortable, even though Towa was the sexiest woman he'd ever seen.
"Hehe!"
As if seeing through Turles's nervousness, Towa licked her alluring red lips, releasing a meaningful laugh toward Turles.
Hearing the laughter, Turles's heart tightened. His muscles tensed, as if next second he'd launch an attack on Towa.
Noticing Turles's tension, Broly also assumed combat stance. His eyes staring intently at Towa.
"Don't be nervous, handsome. I won't eat you!"
Towa's voice matched her figure—also full of allure. Soft and tingling, like weak electrical currents crossing Turles's heart.
Turles's eyes began growing somewhat dazed. His heart also lowered its guard against Towa. Like floating on clouds.
But very quickly, Turles's whole body shuddered. His eyes changed from dazed to clear. Seeing the now extremely close Towa, he immediately grabbed Broly and sharply retreated, pulling distance from Towa.
"Such terrifying mental power!"
Turles felt somewhat shaken. He'd nearly been controlled by Towa's mental seduction. If not for him and Broly constantly practicing the mental training method Merus gave them, he'd probably already been controlled by Towa.
"Oh?"
Turles escaping her mental seduction so quickly made Towa feel somewhat surprised. However, her interest in Turles grew even greater.
"Saiyan, how about following me? I can help you do anything!"
Towa directly issued an invitation to Turles. The implications in her words were even more suggestive.
As Demon King Dabura's sister, also skilled in space-time travel technology and genetic experiments, how could Towa not know Turles and Broly's identities?
Moreover, she'd discovered some interesting things about Turles. This made her issue the invitation.
But understanding Towa's background, how could Turles be swayed? He imperceptibly glanced at the four puppet demons behind Towa, constantly thinking of escape routes.
That's right. From the moment Towa arrived, Turles knew the four demons behind her were thorough puppets.
Though these four demons emanated powerful auras—Turles estimated all four had battle power exceeding one hundred million—from those lifeless eyes, Turles already knew these demons had been completely controlled by Towa.
Thinking of Towa's mental control magic surpassing even Babidi's, Turles's wariness of her rose to maximum.
However, Towa's own aura somewhat surprised Turles. In his perception, Towa's current battle power was only one million.
Turles didn't know whether Towa, like him and Broly, could control ki and deliberately displayed this power, or if her true strength was genuinely this level.
If Towa's strength was only this much, with his and Broly's power, escaping here shouldn't be a problem.
But if Towa hid her strength, combined with her bizarre magic, he and Broly might fall in the Demon Realm today.
Turles somewhat regretted now. He shouldn't have gotten careless and wandered around just because his strength had increased somewhat.
Originally thinking with his current three-million normal battle power, humanoid Great Ape transformation's 10x boost, plus having learned Kaio-ken, he should count as a master at minimum.
Even knowing the Demon Realm had some masters, with his strength—even if he couldn't win, escaping shouldn't be a problem.
But unexpectedly, just arriving in the Demon Realm, he'd lost his greatest trump card—Instant Transmission. Now he'd encountered Towa, whose strength remained unclear.
But thinking about this now was useless. Could only gamble.
Turles gave Broly a look. Seeing he understood, he immediately activated 4x Kaio-ken. His battle power directly rose from thirty million to one hundred twenty million.
Having activated Kaio-ken, Turles's speed skyrocketed. His body directly vanished from place, launching a sneak attack on the four puppets Towa brought.
Broly, at the same instant Turles exploded, continuously fired energy blasts at Towa, blocking her vision.
The two's perfectly coordinated teamwork caught Towa completely off guard. When she reacted and wanted to control the puppets to protect herself, Broly's energy blasts had already flown before her.
Unable to help it, Towa could only give up controlling the puppets. She waved her staff, first placing a magic barrier around herself.
Turles had bet correctly. Towa's strength was indeed only one million. As a self-professed elegant demon, how could she engage in close combat like a brute?
Moreover, with her powerful magical abilities, she could completely control others to fight for her. This made Towa look down on those warriors even more.
This was also why Towa remained unmoved knowing her brother had been controlled by Babidi.
So under Turles and Broly's coordination, Towa completely overturned this time.
Without Towa's control, though these four puppets superficially had nearly one hundred million battle power, their true combat power didn't even reach ten million.
Moreover, after Turles engaged several, he discovered these four puppets' battle power wasn't trained by themselves but rather forcibly raised like force-feeding.
Thinking of Towa's white lab coat, Turles felt even more confident.
