Word went around that the former champion and the savior of Perditus came back from his journey. Rize was one of the first Saiyans that heard of Broly's return from a subordinate. It was reported that Broly had humiliated his son in front of a crowd, going so far to make him piss himself in public. Rize was of course furious when he heard about it. He wanted to take revenge, but he knew that no one was able to harm Broly or his friends. Rize thought using politics to pressure or put restrictions on him would be of no effect.
Going by the attics Broly showed in the war, it wouldn't be farfetched if Broly killed him in a fit of rage. Rize needed to play this carefully, he needed to wait until Broly and his team went through the rift and then disrupt the space inside. Best-case scenario would be Broly's death, worst-case would be that he wouldn't be able to return. Either way with Broly and company out of the way, he would be able to take over and rule this planet.
*****
A few days passed until Rize heard about some leaked information. It appears that Broly and his crew, as well as a bunch of other Saiyans would be traveling into the rift tomorrow. They haven't released the news yet as they didn't want the others to get there hopes up yet.
Rize knew that if he wanted Broly to be gone for good he needed to disrupt the space moments after they entered or else he would have crossed the rift unharmed. Even if Broly managed to survive by crossing it, it would at least give him years, until they found a way back in, to come up with a counterplan.
The next day a spaceship shot into the air to space, Rize saw this and immediately send the strongest ones, he had a deal with, up with his own spaceship. Although it wasn't as fast as other spaceships, it was able to conceal itself which fitted this mission perfectly.
He looked into the direction Broly's spaceship flew.
"So, what if you are the Legendary Super Saiyan? I will rule this planet!"
A few hours later the group he sent, reported back that they accomplished their mission and would be heading back.
Rize started laughing manically and ordered his troops to start their revolt. He was euphoric about the prospect that he would soon be the new king. He only needed to kill Gine and Daz, as they were the most invested in the ideas of leaving this planet. He wasn't confident to convince them to come over his side. But after he disposed of them, no one then would be able to stop him.
With his elite team and all his hidden allies following him, they first headed towards Daz' dojo, as Daz would usually train the next generation at this time. It was the perfect place to start his new rule, with the next generation as his witness.
"Daz your time has come. But don't worry it would only be a painful death!" He said aloud as he entered the room.
He swung open the door and froze at the entrance. He looked stupid frozen in place with his mouth wide open.
"This is im-impossible!"
What greeted him were hundreds of Saiyans. The room was big as it was usually used for fighting. It could easily hold a few hundred people without making it seem too crowded.
The dojo was a bit offside, so he wasn't able to know that most including Gine and Daz had gathered, but this wasn't why he was shocked.
It was because of the trio in the middle that stared at him. Broly had a sneer on his face as he waited to let the shock sink in. He was back in his iconic clothes as he majestically stood there, looking down on Rize.
"You are supposed to be in the rift! They said-"
"Well, with how weak-willed they were, it was easy to force them to say a few words."
Rize knew that this wouldn't end well if he stayed. He looked around to find a way to escape. He saw that the crowd didn't seem to be filled in with everything.
Before he could do anything with it, Broly appeared in front of him and grabbed him by the neck like chicken and lifted him up. Cana as if teleporting emerged behind the group that followed Rize and blocked the entrance.
Broly still held Rize by the neck as he moved towards the center of the room. He looked around and waited until the crowd calmed down.
"You probably don't know what Rize's plan was. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that I and my team went inside a rift and disturb the space inside, essentially trying to kill or at least lock me out. He tried to do so because he wanted to rule this planet but feared me."
The crowd exclaimed after hearing this and hushed whispers resounded out in the crowd.
"Silence! This is not why I have gathered you all here, to witness this fool's death."
"W-wait don't kill me." Rize was able to get those words out, begging for his life. His son suddenly burst inside the room and rushed towards Broly. "Let my father go!!"
Broly snapped Rize's neck and threw his corpse towards the approaching son, following with a ki blast. The son didn't even have the chance to say anything else, as the father-son duo directly disintegrated. Cana followed suit, killing the rest of the group.
Most of the next generation screamed out in shock, as they just witnessed one of their leaders being killed in front of their eyes. The older generation only widened their eyes, seeing the decisiveness of Broly.
Broly looked at the older generation and continued speaking.
"I know most of you now think of every life as immensely important, as our race was on the verge of extinction. After living under the constant threat of the CE, you started bonding more with your family members and with it you lost your edge. I don't tell you it is wrong and that you shouldn't value the ones around you, but you have to know who we are.
Everybody here knows the thrill of the fight, some more, some less but it is still present in every one of us. It is something that is deeply rooted within us. Without a doubt our future generation will want to strive for greater heights in the vast universe. If the time comes when that spoiled generation move out and encounter different races, they will be slaughtered like sheep. Only because we didn't guide them right."
He let his gaze wander the crowd.
"I am already more than capable of killing Frieza with one punch, but he wasn't any near the peak of the universe. There are countless of strong experts and even gods that can wipe us out in seconds. We aren't strong but we Saiyans have so much potential, that we could rule the whole universe!
To be honest I get why that weakling wanted to become king and rule this planet. It is very enticing to be in power but as you could see, no matter the schemes and plans he made, it was all meaningless after being confronted with real strength."
Broly saw that they were attentively listening to what he was saying.
"Without strength we are just chicken waiting to be slaughtered. Now I want to ask you something. Are we chicken??"
"NO!!" The crowd erupted in a scream, as they waved with their fist. Especially the older generation, as it seemed that they now let all their pent-up emotions out.
"THEN WHAT ARE WE?!"
"WE ARE SAIYANS!" "WE ARE THE STRONGEST!" All kinds of shouts sounded out in the room, as they hyped each other up even more.
"From today onwards I will be the one with the last say! I will lead you to glory!" He struck his fist up and released his ki and his aura. The whole room trembled, and the crowd erupted in cheers as they chanted his name.
"Broly!" "Broly!"
****
Hours later after the crowd calmed down and dispersed, Alea went to Broly who was back in his trainings chamber all sweaty, indicating that he just had an intense workout.
"I thought you would rush out and kill him after I told you about everything, but you instead waited and lured all of his hidden pieces out."
"Well, it would have taken longer to investigate every single Saiyan after Rize had been exposed. Didn't want to waste my time with this."
"Nevertheless, it was a strategic move, fitting for a leader. Broly, you outdid me. They already hail you as the new king. I first wanted to become the sole leader, but now it seems I won't be able anymore. Sigh."
"Who said you can't?" Broly grinned.
