"What's wrong? Surprised?"
"Broly can transform into a Super Saiyan, so naturally, we can too."
Seeing the shock and jealousy in Paragus' expression, Yuujin smiled.
"Hmph, Broly is the Legendary Saiyan! What makes you think you're on her level?"
Paragus snorted, showing blatant disdain for Yuujin and his companions.
"And them? Who are these two?"
His gaze fell on Gokumi and Vegea, his jealousy intensifying.
Another two Super Saiyans?!
Damn it! Are Super Saiyans as common as weeds in their world?!
"Her name is Gokumi. Among Saiyans, she is known as Kakarrot, the daughter of the low-class warrior Bardock. She was born on the same day as your daughter, Broly."
"Bardock's daughter?!"
As Yuujin introduced Gokumi, Paragus was visibly shocked.
"Uncle, you knew my father?"
Gokumi had no real memories or attachment to her long-dead father, but hearing his name still sparked curiosity.
"Hmph, Bardock? Of course, I knew him."
"Didn't expect his daughter to survive... Now that I look closely, she does resemble him a little."
Paragus scrutinized Gokumi again, his expression somewhat sour.
Bardock was well-known among the Saiyans. Unlike the rest of their ruthless and self-serving race, he had an unusual drive to protect his own kind. Though he was as brutal as any other Saiyan, this trait made him unique.
Despite being a low-class warrior, Bardock relentlessly honed his strength through countless battles, supposedly reaching a power level rivaling King Vegeta himself. He was highly respected on Planet Vegeta.
Naturally, Paragus never accepted Bardock's reputation, and even now, he felt the same.
To think that bastard's daughter survived… and became a Super Saiyan no less.
But so what? He may not have been Bardock's equal, but his daughter, Broly, was the strongest and most gifted Saiyan of all!
"And this one—our last Saiyan princess, Vegea."
Yuujin smirked as he introduced Vegea.
It was clear this Paragus didn't recognize Vegea—at least, not as she was now. He probably only remembered her from childhood. Too many years had passed, and she had changed significantly.
"She's… Princess Vegea?"
Then, suddenly—
"Hahahaha!!!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
Paragus trembled before bursting into uncontrollable laughter like a madman.
"You have a problem with me?"
Vegea frowned coldly.
"A problem? Of course, I do!"
"Vegea! I heard you worked under Frieza, and after his death, you disappeared without a trace."
"I was wondering when I'd get the chance to find you… and here you are, standing right in front of me!"
Paragus locked eyes with Vegea, his burning hatred on full display.
"What do you want from me? As far as I recall, I've never wronged you."
"You haven't… but your father, King Vegeta, has!"
"Vegea, you were always called the most talented Saiyan, the pride of your father, King Vegeta. But you have no idea, do you? Compared to my daughter, Broly, your so-called talent is nothing!"
"Broly, my daughter, was born with a battle power of 10,000! She is the Legendary Super Saiyan, the one who appears only once every thousand years!"
"When your father learned of this, do you know what he did?"
"He feared Broly's power! He worried that she would outshine you!"
"So, he attacked me, severely wounding me! Then he sent assassins to eliminate my daughter, treating us like garbage and tossing us away!"
"I was so loyal to King Vegeta… and look at what he did to me!"
"I hate him! I hate your father, King Vegeta! And I hate you just as much!"
Paragus' face twisted in rage as painful memories resurfaced. His hatred ran so deep that he looked ready to tear Vegea apart with his bare hands.
"Yuujin, is what he said true?"
Hearing this for the first time, Vegea's expression darkened as she turned to Yuujin.
"For the most part, yes. When I went to get Gokumi and escape from Planet Vegeta, I happened to witness your father's assassins attacking Broly."
Yuujin answered truthfully.
"Why didn't you tell me before?!"
"You never asked."
Vegea seemed irritated, but Yuujin simply shrugged.
Despite her frustration, she knew she couldn't blame him. Huffing, she turned back to Paragus.
"My father may have wronged you and your daughter… but he's dead now. If you want revenge, then come at me!"
Truthfully, this had nothing to do with Vegea. She hadn't even known Broly existed before today. She felt no guilt over what her father had done.
But her pride wouldn't allow her to back down.
Besides, Paragus was clearly trying to shift his hatred for King Vegeta onto her.
If he wanted revenge, he could come and try! She wasn't afraid!
"Vegea, your arrogance is just like your father's!"
"Don't worry! Since your father is dead, I will make you suffer in his place!"
"I will make you pay for everything Broly and I endured—with your blood and your pain!"
"And once you're gone, the corrupt royal family will be finished!"
"Then Broly and I will become the new rulers of the Saiyans! We will conquer the galaxy—conquer the universe—and restore the Saiyan race's glory!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
Paragus laughed maniacally.
"Hmph, keep dreaming. You? The king of the Saiyans?"
Vegea sneered in contempt.
Paragus himself was weak—she could crush him with a single energy blast.
As for Broly… well, that might be a challenge.
But so what?
She didn't care if Broly was some once-in-a-millennium Super Saiyan. She, Yuujin, and Gokumi had all advanced to Super Saiyan 2.
Vegea was confident—she would not lose!
Overcome with rage, Paragus was done talking.
Some things could never be resolved with words.
Only blood could settle this score!
"Broly! Kill them all!"
