Chapter 94: Escaping the Demon Realm
Watching the golden aura-wrapped figure before him—golden hair standing on end, pupils no longer black but jade green—Broly felt somewhat shocked.
If not for the ki signature confirming this was Turles, Broly truly wouldn't have believed it.
"This is... what you called Super Saiyan?"
But soon, Broly guessed this might be another transformation from Turles. Sensing that incredible one hundred fifty million battle power, Broly's heart immediately formed a hypothesis.
Turning around, seeing the somewhat disheveled Broly, Turles smiled slightly. "Broly, leave the rest to me. Go find Bulma first!"
Hearing this, Broly nodded. Before leaving, he still couldn't help glancing at Turles, praising, "Turles... cool!"
After speaking, he gave Turles a thumbs up, then flew toward Bulma's ki signature.
Hearing Broly's praise, Turles first froze, then laughed. Shaking his head, Turles suppressed his smile. His expression cooled as he turned toward Towa.
"You... you're that Saiyan from before?"
Towa was also shocked by Turles's new appearance. Especially after transforming into Super Saiyan, Turles radiated a chilling aura from within—making her somewhat alarmed.
"Hmph. Towa, now begins the next round!"
With that, Turles's figure became a black streak, vanishing from place.
Seeing Turles disappear, Towa immediately summoned the puppet beast to her side, fully protecting herself.
She knew Turles possessed spatial abilities. Though she'd already sealed this location's spatial nodes, she couldn't guarantee he wouldn't break through to her side.
Just as Towa warily guarded her surroundings, a massive disc rapidly flew down from above.
Towa didn't dare be careless. She immediately waved her staff, placing a magic barrier around herself.
The rapidly spinning disc soon reached Towa. Even through the magic barrier, Towa could feel death's aura from those sharp edges. She was certain—once struck, her fate would be bisection.
So at the disc's approach, she abandoned using the magic barrier to block. Instead, she used her spatial abilities to swap places with the puppet beast.
Screech!
A piercing friction sound rang out. The disc contacted the beast's spikes.
Seeing she'd blocked this strange disc, Towa unconsciously relaxed. But before she could celebrate, the beast's spikes were cleanly severed by the disc. Then it continued forward unimpeded, passing through the beast's body.
"What?"
Towa couldn't believe it.
This puppet was modified using many special materials. Those spikes were forged from the universe's hardest metals she'd spent ages collecting. Yet before this disc, they proved so fragile.
Towa's heart grew uneasy. She immediately tried summoning the puppet to her side. But no matter how she waved her staff, the puppet showed no response.
Just then, a hair-thin line appeared at the beast's neck. Next, green liquid appeared at the line. The beast's head slowly toppled off.
As the head fell, green blood immediately sprayed like a fountain. The shocked Towa was directly drenched.
Swish!
Turles's figure reappeared before Towa, still watching this sexy woman with cold, merciless eyes.
Towa recovered from shock. Meeting Turles's gaze, she couldn't help shuddering.
After long silence, Turles spoke. "Towa, I mean no offense to the Demon Realm. My appearance here was purely accidental. Let this matter end here!"
Without waiting for Towa's response, Turles used Instant Transmission, vanishing before her.

On the other side, Turles's figure appeared before Broly and Bulma.
The instant he appeared, Turles exited Super Saiyan form, asking Bulma, "Bulma, ready?"
Hearing Turles's question, Bulma immediately nodded seriously, then pressed the button in her hand.
As Bulma pressed the button, a large machine behind her shot a blue beam into the distance.
The beam struck the void. Like a "stone" tossed into emptiness, ripples immediately spread. Then a black hole appeared in the void.
Seeing the black hole appear, Bulma nodded again at Turles. "Done. I've established a spatial link with the machine in the human realm. Once we pass through this black hole, we'll completely leave the Demon Realm."
"Good. Let's go quickly. I'm worried the Demon Realm's big shots might be attracted."
With that, Turles had Bulma and Broly pass through the black hole first.
After both passed through, Turles could no longer sense their ki. Then he also stepped into the black hole.
As Turles's entire body entered, the black hole began slowly contracting.
But just then, three figures appeared where Turles had vanished—one being Towa.
"They're gone!" Towa watched the constantly contracting black hole somewhat unwillingly.
Then a hunched figure resembling a yellow beetle—somewhat short—approached the black hole, staring intently inside as if able to see the scenery beyond through it.
"Hehehehe!"
After a long while, the hunched figure released an eerie laugh. A sharp, raspy voice sounded. "Disappeared? Let them disappear. The key is—they left this thing behind!"
After speaking, the figure approached the machine Bulma used. Eyes shining, it stared at the device, caressing it like stroking a lover.
"Tch!"
Towa still felt somewhat unwilling. But glancing at the short hunched person, wariness flashed through her eyes. Ultimately, she said nothing.
"Sister, no matter. As long as Lord Babidi can figure out this device, we can freely travel between the human realm and Demon Realm. Then I'll avenge you!"
The final tall figure also spoke. From his words, it wasn't hard to guess—this was Towa's brother, the Demon Realm King: Dabura.
The short figure's identity was also obvious—the sorcerer who'd controlled Demon King Dabura, constantly seeking Majin Buu: Babidi.
"Mind your own business. Take care of yourself first!"
But Towa showed her brother no respect whatsoever. After tossing out this line, she directly flew away.
Hearing his sister's rejection, Demon King Dabura showed no surprise. Just shrugged, then slightly bowed to Babidi respectfully. "Master, what do we do next?"
Babidi calmly accepted the Demon Realm King's salute. Standing in place thinking, he said, "First, bring this machine back!"
After speaking, he pointed at the machine. It began constantly shrinking, finally becoming only palm-sized and miniature.
Demon King Dabura immediately picked up this toy-like machine, placing it in his chest. Then he and Babidi departed.
Shortly after they left, Towa's figure returned, appearing again. She waved her staff, seemingly doing something. Then she vanished once more.

Kakule Planet.
Still before that bronze gate, a massive machine was working. Tremendous rumbling echoed throughout the cave.
Suddenly, a black hole appeared from nowhere. Three figures were ejected from within.
"Ahhh!"
Bulma's shriek rang out. Just as she was about to slam into the ground, Turles suddenly appeared, catching her in his arms—saving Bulma from her butt being split in eight.
Meanwhile, Broly quickly adjusted his landing posture, steadily touching down.
Returning to the human realm again, Turles felt like he'd been reborn. Though only spending a few days in the Demon Realm, for him it hadn't been easy at all.
Looking down at the princess-carried Bulma in his arms, Turles said softly, "Alright, Bulma. We're safe now."
After speaking, Turles set Bulma down.
Hearing Turles's words, Bulma slowly opened her eyes. Seeing the familiar surroundings, she finally confirmed they'd left the Demon Realm.
"Whew!" Bulma released a long breath, unconsciously patting her chest.
Seeing this, Turles felt somewhat amused. He couldn't help teasing, "What's this? Our great inventor has moments of doubting her own inventions?"
Bulma rolled her eyes at Turles, walking to the still-working machine and shutting it down.
Having gotten no satisfaction, Turles rubbed his nose, smiling somewhat awkwardly.
"Pfft!"
Just then, Broly—watching the spectacle from the side—couldn't help laughing at Turles's embarrassment.
Hearing Broly's laughter, Turles couldn't help glaring at him. But Broly just laughed even louder.
Continuing to glare at Broly, Turles ultimately also couldn't help laughing.
"What's wrong with you two?" After checking the machine's operational status, Bulma—hearing their laughter—immediately walked over, puzzled.
Suppressing his smile, Turles quickly replied, "Nothing!"
Then Turles seemed to remember something, confirming with Bulma. "Right, Bulma—is there a problem leaving the machine in the Demon Realm? If Towa uses that machine to open a passage to the human realm, that'd be serious trouble."
"No problem. That machine only had one charge opportunity. This trip back already consumed all its energy. The machine over there can no longer activate."
Hearing Turles's concern, Bulma looked completely confident. She was very confident in her technological abilities.
But Turles remained worried. "What if Towa is also a spatial master? Plus, she knows magic!"
"This..." Bulma found herself speechless.
Seeing Bulma silent, Turles also felt troubled. But next second, he thought of an idea. Condensing an energy blast in his hand, he directly fired it at Bulma's machine.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by an explosion, Bulma's machine completely became a pile of parts—the unfixable kind.
"TURLES!!!"
Seeing her hard work destroyed, the recovered Bulma immediately exploded with rage. She walked before Turles, reaching out to grab his ear, shouting loudly, "What are you doing? That took me so much effort to make!"
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Let go, Bulma!"
Suddenly attacked, Turles didn't dare resist forcefully. Could only follow Bulma's force direction on tiptoes, begging for mercy.
Bulma had momentarily been consumed by anger. Seeing Turles beg, she unconsciously relaxed her grip. But still asked Turles angrily, "You better give me an explanation!"
Feeling Bulma's grip loosen, Turles retreated a step, escaping her clutches. While rubbing his already-red ear, he muttered, "Getting more and more violent! Not cute like before at all!"
"What did you say?"
Bulma's eyebrows shot up. She reached out to grab Turles's ear again.
"Nothing, nothing!" Turles repeatedly waved his hands, then immediately changed topics. "I was just being cautious! That Towa isn't simple. Plus, the Demon Realm now has an evil sorcerer determined to cause trouble in the human realm. I had no choice!"
"Really?"
Bulma still felt somewhat skeptical. But seeing Turles's serious expression, she let him off.
"Fine. Since it's already destroyed, forget it. When I'm strong enough, I'll just make another one."
"Speaking of which, we've been back at Kakule Planet so long—why hasn't Clark made a sound?"
Speaking, Turles released his perception, beginning to search for Clark's ki.
