Over the next hour after Kale agreed to learn from him, Alex and young Saiyaness continued their discussion as he tried to learn more about her. Well...Alex talked, Kale's usual timid and meek personality, coupled with the bashfulness from her newfound crush made it nearly impossible for her to get more than one or two words at a time.
With what he COULD get though, Alex learned quite a bit about Kale's life up until this point. And it was truly sad.
He learned that the young Saiyaness was only in her early teens, if that, and had been alone for pretty much her entire life. She had no idea where her parents were, or if they were even alive, and had no intention of finding out, even when Alex offered to find them.
Her entire life she had pretty much been living on the streets alone, which Alex could tell due to her tattered and dirty clothing, the splotches of dirt on her face and arms, as well as how unruly and dirty her hair was, even for a Saiyan. On top of that she was scared and hesitant to use her strength unless it was to escape a bad situation, like the situation before, due to a trauma she suffered when she was younger, in which she had accidentally hurt the only friend she had, who then called her a monster.
In short, Alex concluded that if he hadn't found her, or Caulifla in the original timeline, then chances were that the Saiyans of Universe Six would have quickly followed their cousins in Universe Seven into extinction.
Unlike the rest of the Saiyans around her, who would have to undergo strict training to be able to transform, Legendary Super Saiyans like Kale were able to achieve the Super Saiyan transformation once their body naturally became strong enough, they would only need the proper trigger. And with even the meekest and most timid people having a breaking point, it was only a matter of time until Kale found hers and transformed before going berserk, and destroying planet Sadala itself along with its inhabitants.
That would have to be one of the things Alex brought up with the former king when they met back up, along with some other things he had noticed while out of the palace.
With that thought, Alex glanced at the time before standing suddenly, and saying to his surprised guest,
"There's something I need to go and get ready for. Are you coming?" Kale paused for a moment as she looked at Alex's outstretched hand, before taking it with reddened cheeks as she too stood, and followed him out of the tavern.
"Come again!" The Saiyan woman who served them called out as they left, to which Alex waved his hand in recognition and thanks.
Once they were outside Alex looked to his new protege, and said,
"I'll be using Instant Transmission again to take us to our destination. If you study and train hard, then you'll also be able to use this technique in the future." Kale's down turned eyes lit up when she heard that, before their surroundings suddenly shifted, and she found herself in a location that was completely alien to her, the royal palace.
Looking around in surprise at the brightly lit and highly decorated hall, Kale's attention went back to Alex as he called out, "Vados."
Instantly a tall blue-skinned woman appeared before them, shocking Kale as she tried to hide behind Alex, though the woman smiled warmly at her before turning to him and saying, "Yes my liege?"
If she were shocked by the woman's appearance, then Kale was downright flabbergasted when she heard that, and even more so when Alex replied while gesturing to her,
"This is Kale, my new student. I have some matters to attend to regarding the impending announcement, so can you look after her and take her to get cleaned up while I'm doing that?" The woman, Vados, nodded as she replied,
"Of course my liege." Nodding himself in affirmation, Alex then looked back to Kale and said,
"Kale, this is Vados. She's one of my attendants, as well as one of my teachers. She'll also help teach you how to control your powers, along with other techniques she may think you should learn." As he said that, Vados bowed to her and said,
"It is a pleasure to meet you miss Kale. If you'll please follow me, we'll see about getting you cleaned up and dressed in some proper clothing." Though she was tempted to make a comment about Alex essentially making her a babysitter, Vados held her tongue due to her sensing the amount of power within Kale's body.
Kale herself however seemed the most reluctant with the current plan though, as she clung to Alex tighter instead of going with Vados. Thankfully, after having to deal with Champa for who knew how long, Vados was quite patient with the young Saiyaness and her stubbornness.
Though it took a bit of convincing, Kale eventually, and reluctantly, went with Vados to the royal baths so the servants could clean her, leaving Alex alone once again. To reassure Kale however, Alex stood there watching the duo make their way down the hall, his expression one of encouragement to the scared Kale.
Once they turned the corner though, Alex's expression changed into one of seriousness as he located the former king Sadala, who was with Vegeta Sr, Raditz, Trunks, and several of his higher ups.
With a thought, Alex used Instant Transmission to instantly arrive in the room they were gathered in, which was a study of sorts, where the group was discussing thr specifics of the Saiyan Warriors future training and the battles to come.
"Your majesty!" Sadala exclaimed when Alex appeared, bowing as he did so with the others following his lead. Alex however ignored the niceties, as he said to the former king,
"Sadala, we need to talk." Immediately the former king straightened his back, as he hesitantly asked,
"Your majesty...?" Alex approached the table they were gathered around without saying anything, taking in the maps and diagrams they had drawn up, before he then stated,
"Did you know that if not for my intervention, the Saiyans of this universe would probably have been wiped out in a few years time?" THAT got their attention, as Sadala and his advisors looked at Alex incredulously, while Vegeta Sr and the other two looked serious.
"W-what do you mean your majesty?" Sadala eventually asked, to which Alex asked in return,
"Tell me, have any of you ever heard of the Legendary Super Saiyan?" For a moment no one said anything as the group absorbed Alex's question, and he watched their expressions, the most notable of which was Vegets Sr's as he paled at the mention of the LSS.
"Pft! Isn't that just that old myth?" One of the advisors asked with a smirk, before said smirk vanished as Alex told them,
"Nope. I just found said LSS wandering the streets, starving and homeless. And before you say anything, I personally witnessed her use physical abilities greater than those of your formally trained guards, so I know she's the real deal." Silence greeted Alex's words as everyone took in what he said, before Trunks asked,
"What's a Legendary Super Saiyan?" Before Alex could speak up though, it was Raditz who answered,
"It's the legendary warrior who appears only once in a thousand years. It was also the reason Frieza wiped us out, as he was scared of the legend being real and an opponent stronger than him appearing. Then years later Kakarot showed up and became that very warrior he was scared of." Though he couldn't stand his little brother and his 'soft' ways, Raditz still reluctantly told Trunks about how he had fulfilled the legend while opening the gates for the rest of them.
However not even then was Alex allowed to speak up to correct him, as the former king Vegeta said in a solem voice,
"That's not entirely true..." This time everyone turned to the former king, as even Alex's look demanded answers, to which Vegeta Sr sighed before saying,
"Years ago, around the same time Kakarot was born, another Saiyan child was born who possessed a power level higher than any other we'd seen as an infant, a staggering 10,000."
As the former king told his story, only a single thought was going through Alex's mind with the revelation, 'FUCK!'
This meant that Legendary Super Saiyan Broly existed, which confused Alex since Broly was never canon due to being exclusive to the movies, like Frieza's brother Cooler, or Lord Slug.
From what Alex recalled, king Vegeta was fearful and jealous of Broly's potential as the LSS, and gave the order for both him and his father to be executed. Broly's strength however allowed him to survive as an infant, as both he and his father escaped planet Vegeta, and ironically the destruction of the rest of their race.
Normally Alex would be more than eager to fight a strong opponent, however Broly wasn't an 'opponent', Broly was a psychotic slaughter machine that radiated pure 'fuck you and everyone in the same galaxy as you' energy.
As far as Alex was concerned, Broly could fuck off on whatever planet he was on, and stay there.
Kale on the other hand was still young, and had the time to train and learn how to control herself before her powers awoke. If she hadn't been willing to train though, then Alex would've had no choice but to try and seal her powers before they could awake, as regrettable as it would've been.
Alex's thoughts were so chaotic at learning Broly existed, that he nearly missed when Vegeta Sr continued,
"Because of his high power level though, I worried for the future of our race and sent the young boy to a deserted and vicious planet. His father fought me on this of course, insisting that he would become a great asset to our people that could even help us throw off the chains of servitude that Frieza placed on us.
"But I still had to, especially then since Frieza definitely would've punished us if he learned of Broly's existence. Now that I think about it, I wonder if that was the reason he did wipe us out, if someone got word to him that the Legendary Super Saiyan was born..."
When Vegeta Sr finished speaking everyone was silent as they thought upon what he told them, before Trunks hesitantly asked,
"Is it possible that Broly is still alive since he wasn't with the rest of the Saiyans when they were destroyed? If he is, then shouldn't we invite him to join us?" Though Vegeta Sr was about to answer that it was unlikely, since he had Broly sent to a hostile and uninhabited planet as an infant, Alex firmly stated instead,
"There will be no attempts to contact Broly of any kind!" That drew everyone's attention back to him, prompting Alex to clarify,
"I know what Broly is like, and I have absolutely no intention of initiating contact with him of any kind. After his father followed him to that planet, I'm sure he spent his entire life listening to him rant and slander the king that exiled him, and if they got the chance then Broly's father would immediately try to get revenge.
"Broly himself is fairly calm and docile for a Saiyan, but if he awakens his power he will turn into a being of pure destruction and slaughter that will go berserk as he tries to destroy everything around him. If he were as young as Kale then I could try and teach him to control his transformations, but with his current age and the life he's lived, that would probably be impossible."
The rest of the gathered Saiyans were silent as they digested Alex's warning, before Sadala asked,
"Is Kale the name of the LSS you found, your majesty?" Alex nodded as he then told them,
"She's currently here in the palace, being cleaned up after spending her entire life on the streets. When I return home I'll be taking her with me, and there she'll learn how to properly control her powers. I don't know if she'll ever join the front lines on any battles with her meek personality, but at least we won't have to worry about her going berserk when her powers eventually awaken."
That made the Sadalan Saiyans breath a sigh of relief, as, with everything they'd heard about the LSS in the last several minutes, they didn't want any on their planet to cause problems. Of course, if any of them had voiced this then Alex would've had no choice but to laugh since he himself was a LSS.
Instead though, a new voice that Alex hadn't heard before called out from outside the study, making the former king of Sadala pale when he heard it.
"FATHER!"
"Oh no..." Sadala uttered, right before the door to the study was thrown open suddenly, and a woman stormed in with her aura raging around her chaotically.
She appeared to be in her late teens, like the current Caulifla was, and was built similarly as well with a petite frame and slim figure. Unlike Caulifla, or any other Saiyaness Alex had met so far though, she appeared to have her black hair tied into a thick braid that came forward over her should, a braid that was held in place with several metal bands.
With narrowed eyes the woman scanned the room, her gaze lingering on Alex for the barest of seconds, before she finally zeroed in on the former king Sadala. She then demanded with obvious agitation,
"Father! What is the meaning of this?! Not only were we all called back from an important battle against the space pirates, but now the guards are saying that I'm no longer the princess! What is going on!?!"
Sadala sighed as he rubbed his temples, seemingly anticipating an oncoming headache, before finally saying,
"Your majesty, I would like to introduce you to my daughter, Sala. Sala, this is Alexander Morningstar, our new emperor." Anything that Sala looked as if she was going to say vanished on the tip of her tongue, as she directed an incredulous look at Alex, who merely nodded at her and said,
"Pleasure to meet you." The next minute or so was fairly entertaining as they watched Sala go through a variety of expressions and emotions, before she turned and looked back at Alex and demanded with narrowed eyes,
"Are you also the one who spread that disgusting slander about emperor Frost? On the way here I received a transmission stating that he was in league with the space pirates, which is the most ridiculous lie I'd ever heard of! Emperor Frost has always been, and always will be, our most steadfast ally in the fight against evil!"
Alex cocked a brow at that while Sadala sighed once again, before saying,
"Please excuse us for a moment your majesty, I feel the need to explain a few things to my daughter."
Alex waved them away to give his approval, as he himself always prioritized his family over all else. When the door closed behind them as the father-daughter duo left the study though, Alex and the others were treated to listening to them argue loudly through it.
Sadala tried explaining everything that happened to his daughter, while Sala seemingly refused to believe the things he was saying. Alex had to give her some points though, as Sala argued that the revelations of Frost's true nature was too coincidental after Alex defeated Sadala in combat, though the man argued that Frost outed himself when confronted with his treachery, and tried to blow up planet Sadala as a result.
After several minutes of arguing though, Alex was somewhat, but not really, surprised when the door burst open yet again, and Sala stormed through as she declared,
"I challenge you to a duel! If I win, then the crown goes back to my father!" Alex fought the urge to roll his eyes as he turned back to them, while Sadala said from behind her,
"I'm sorry your majesty, but she just insists on testing your strength for herself..." Alex smiled wryly as the replied,
"It's alright. I have daughters myself, and I'm not sure what I'll do when they get to this age..." He then turned to Sala and said with a serious voice,
"Are you sure about this?" Sala nodded as she stated firmly,
"As a member of the Saiyan royal family, I have a duty to my people to ensure the best possible future for my people!" Alex fought the urge to roll his eyes at that, but he still turned towards the former Saiyan Princess and said,
"Very well, let's discuss the terms of the duel first."
***
Kale was in hell. Or was it heaven? It depended on the moment.
On one hand this was the first ever actual bath she'd ever had, with the only thing that came close to it being when she occasionally tried washing herself in the freezing creeks and rivers. On the other though, she had been under a constant assault by the female servants with all manner of cleaning instruments.
They used everything from sponges, to even steel wool and brushes on her, scrubbing her skin raw until she was practically glowing pink, even in her most private of places. Once they were done with that, the servants began working on her hair, yanking and pulling on it with brushes and combs, and scrubbing it with cleansers until it was the softest Kale ever recalled her hair being.
Once they had cleaned every single inch of her body, including her tail, Kale was finally allowed to enter the main baths, which was heavenly to her. For the first time in her life she was able to feel completely warm as she submerged her entire body in the hot water.
"Are you enjoying the hot water?" Vados suddenly asked her, the attendant having stood back as she was cleaned and watched silently until that point.
Kale simply nodded silently as she slid further into the water until it came up over her nose. Vados giggled at that before she told her,
"Well, as Alex's student you will be able to take baths like this and eat nice hot food every day." That got a reaction out of her, as Kale whirled around to face Vados and asked,
"R-really?" The Angel nodded as she said,
"Yes, really. Several of Alex's wives lead a team that cooks enough food for him, the rest of his wives, the hundreds of women following them, and his children daily." Kale's eyes widened when she heard that, before she hesitantly asked,
"W-wives? Children?" Vados nodded as she used her scepter to produce an image of hundreds of women and several children, before she continued,
"Yes. Alex has collected quite the number of women in his travels, several of which have borne him children." As Kale looked at the many women that Alex had 'collected', for some reason she felt a bitter frustration well up within her.
"Are you sure about this big sis?" A voice suddenly asked, drawing Kale's attention to a group of six women who suddenly entered the royal baths.
"Welcome back Caulifla, did you already pack everything you needed up?" Vados suddenly asked the girl in the lead of the group, drawing Kale's attention to her as well as she strutted up to the baths.
"Yep! There wasn't much for us to pack anyways, but those storage ring things are pretty cool!" As she said that most of the girls around her voiced their agreement, while the one who had been speaking when they walked in was silent.
"Is there something wrong?" Vados asked her curiously, to which the Saiyaness hesitated for a moment, before saying,
"I just ain't so sure about us going with a man who we just met today, and leaving everything we've been building behind..." Vados cocked a brow at that, but then Caulifla snorted as she crossed her arms beneath her bare breasts,
"We'd be idiots not to join Alex! The guy is a beast, and fucks like one too." She then flopped down into the hot water without washing her body, and continued,
"With him in charge we'd probably be either arrested or killed within the day, plus my intuition tells me that he'd be a better ruler than Sadala anyways. Besides, I didn't hear you voicing any complaints when he was shoving that meat log he calls a cock up your ass." Smirking at the end, Caulifla looked up at the Saiyaness in question to see her face was red as she brought back memories of when Alex made them his 'bitches'.
Caulifla smirked at that thought as well, as she liked that particular label instead of something boring like 'wife', 'lover', or 'concubine'.
Then however, Vados suddenly looked up as something seemingly caught her attention, before she tapped the butt of her scepter against the floor of the baths. Appearing instantly before them was a Saiyan woman that looked to be about the same age as Caulifla, who had her hair in a tight braid.
"And who is this?" Caulifla asked when she saw the newcomer, to which Vados answered,
"This is the former princess Sala, who wagered herself in a duel with his majesty, and is now his concubine." When she heard that Caulifla grinned evilly as she stood up from the water, and faced the former princess.
"Oh this is going to be so beautiful! I definitely want a front row seat to when the 'oh so perfect' princess takes that meat log for the first time!" Sala narrowed her eyes as she looked at Caulifla, the five girls that were with her, Vados, and then Kale.
"And who are you supposed to be?" Sala demanded of Caulifla with undisguised hostility, making the former bandit smirk as she said,
"My name is Caulifla, and WE are Alex's loyal bitches!" As she said that Caulifla gestured to the five other Saiyan women around them.
"Caulifla?" Sala repeated, before her expression warped into one of hostility.
"You mean that filthy bandit criminal who's been stealing the cargo transports for the people of Sadala!?" Caulifla snorted at that as she remarked,
"Oh please! We give those supplies to those who need them, unlike the FORMER King who only gave them to those he dreamed worthy!" Sala glared at Caulifla's accusation and ground her teeth, but was unable to refute it.
They were warriors, not farmers or engineers. The only way for them to sustain their people was to hunt or hire themselves out to earn the money needed to buy the necessary resources, which meant they had to prioritize giving them to the people who could fight. The problem with hunting though, was that they could easily wipe out all other life on their planet if they hunted for food without restraint.
"Humph! That's what I thought!" Caulifla smirked at Sala's silence, considering it her victory over the princess.
It was then that Sala noticed Kale watching the exchange with wide eyes, and she lashed at her instead as she demanded,
"And who are you?! Hm?!" With everyone else turning to look at her, Kale desperately wished she could vanish in that moment as she tried to shrink back. Caulifla then asked her as well,
"Are you another of Alex's bitches? Like me and the prissy princess here?" Sala glared at Caulifla as she said that, and was tempted to snap back at her. But before she could, Kale asked hesitantly
"U-um.....what's a b-bitch?"
(A.N. Poor Kale, feeling like she's behind the curve when she only needs a week of training to curb stomp them all. Also about Sala, I created her because I wanted to give Caulifla a rival instead of just being the only badass Saiyan of Alex's harem)
***
"Haaaa..." Alex sighed as he lounged in his own bath, while numerous Saiyan women that were also in the nude scrubbed his body for him.
They had been handpicked to serve him by the former king Sadala, meaning they were all the most attractive amongst the palace servants. If it weren't for the fact that Alex already had eight Saiyan women he was bringing home with him, then he might have been more tempted.
As it was, the most intense thing that happened in the bath was when three of the women decided to use their mouths to clean his cock and balls. And when they were all drenched in the resulting 'shower', Alex then got a pretty good show as each of the Saiyan women licked his cum off of each other's bodies.
Once the erotic bath was over with, Alex was dressed in a 'formal' pair of shorts, a cape that hung from a cord around his neck, and numerous golden bracers and bands that clasped onto his wrists and biceps. To finish off the outfit, a circlet of gold and jewels that was the sign of Sadalan sovereignty was placed on his forehead at the base of his bangs, indicating to all who saw him that he was the planet's new ruler.
Once he was finished getting ready, Alex then went to meet with Sadala and the rest of the officials, along with Vegeta Sr, Trunks, and Raditz. There he also saw his own personal entourage of Caulifla, her followers, Sala, and Kale.
Caulifla was dressed in long and spacey purple harem pants with a pink band that only covered her breasts, along with matching grey wristbands on her arms. Sala went the more decorative approach, wearing harem pants like Caulifla, except they were blue with gold patterns, matching the golden necklace, and bracelets on her wrists and ankles, while a similar band covered her breasts as well.
And then there was Kale, who Vados dressed in the uniform Alex gave gave her that matched the ones his children and Videl wore, signifying that she was his student. The difference though was that Kale's uniform was a brilliant golden-green, a color that seemed unusual to everyone except Alex. Like the anime though, her hair was now tied up in a high ponytail while a single strand hung down in front of her face.
Though Caulifla and Sala were glaring at each other, and Kale fidgeted from how uncomfortable she was around so many people, everyone else looked ready as Alex asked,
"Are we ready for this?" Sadala nodded as he said,
"I've sent the guards to spread the word that there is to be an announcement to the entire world from its king, so everyone should be listening even if it's night." Alex nodded as he adopted a serious expression, and said,
"Alright, let's get this over with." That earned him a few snickers, but Alex ignored them as he willed this whole thing to hurry up. He hated these types of official occasions, and just wanted it to be over with despite the necessity of it.
Sadala nodded as he went out to the main balcony, overlooking the city below, and received great cheers from the people who had gathered to hear his announcement. While he greeted the masses, Alex turned to Kale and said,
"You're looking a lot better Kale. How do you like the uniform? I made it myself." When she heard that Kale blushed furiously while fidgeting even more, before she stuttered,
"I-i- l-like it...!" Alex smiled when he heard that, as he patted her head and said,
"Im glad. When we return home I'll take you shopping so you can have a whole wardrobe of clothes to choose from." Kale's blush only deepened at that as she eagerly awaited their 'date', making Caulifla roll her eyes in exasperation from the display while Sala wondered if she should ask for a 'date' as well.
"U-um..." Kale then said, as she tried to speak up, but before she could one of the attendants approached Alex and said,
"Sire, we're about to reach your cue!" Alex nodded at them seriously before turning back to Kale and saying,
"Sorry, but I'll have to take care of this. I'll listen to anything you have to say once this bullshit is over with." Giving her an apologetic smile as he said that, Alex turned and headed towards the balcony as he awaited his cue.
...
The people had gathered to hear their king speak, all around the world as numerous projections showed them his image. They were hoping that he would answer some of the questions they had, like the group of streakers that had flown all over the planet earlier, or the damning rumors that were spreading about their ally, the emperor Frost.
What he told them involved neither of these things though, as he said once he made his appearance,
"My fellow Saiyans, this has been a busy day! Today a stranger appeared in my halls, and ever since he arrived there have been waves after waves caused by him that could only strengthen and empower our people! Unfortunately, I can not watch the results of these waves as your king."
the moment those words left Sadala's mouth there was a minor uproar all over the planet, as the position of King had been handed down through Sadala's family line for generations. Theories flew within seconds why this was, ranging from him handing the throne to his daughter, Sala, to a usurper stealing the throne from them.
But before the theories could get too extreme, Sadala voice echoed out,
"SILENCE! I will explain the meaning of my words now! When the stranger came to my halls, I could feel the power and influence he was exerting, and challenged him myself to a duel over the future of the crown, a duel I instantly lost."
Again the murmurs erupted all over the planet at the news, before Sadala continued,
"And now I present to you all our new emperor, ruler of numerous world's and races from even different universes, ALEXANDER MORNINGSTAR!"
As his declaration, a figure stepped forward to take his place, wearing the Royal circlet no less, with his entire upper body covered in what appeared to be a bright red coat, but everyone realized was instead fur. This in itself caused a minor uproar in the places Alex had already visited that day, as numerous people recognized his eye-catching fur and large figure. Among them was the woman who served him and Kale at the tavern, who was now cursing the missed opportunity, and the man who been overseeing the arrival of their cargo, who had gone deathly pale as he recalled spitting into his face earlier.
Again rumors and theories flew as everyone discussed what this new emperor would do to them, and what the future would hold. But when Alex raised his hand for silence, it was like a blanket had descended upon the planet as every single Saiyan instinctively hushed.
"I know that many of you have questions regarding who I am, and what may happen to you now that I am your emperor." Alex began, speaking in a calm yet slightly raised voice.
"Firstly, I am a Saiyan that has come here from the dimension of Asora! There resides the seat of my empire, along with gates that lead to the other worlds and universes where my influence extends!
"Originally, I planned to move the planet Sadala into the dimension of Asora, bringing the Saiyans closer to myself and the rest of my subjects, but then something was brought to my attention!"
As he paused for dramatic effect, Alex then produced an image of Frost when he continued,
"I learned the truth about the 'good' and 'benevolent' emperor Frost, that he was the leader of the very same space pirates that the Saiyans of this universe have been fighting so valiantly against!" Though there was brief outcry from those who protested the claims Alex made against their ally, they were quickly silenced when he replayed the scene of Frost conspiring with the captains of the space pirates, as well as his intentions to destroy planet Sadala when he was confronted with the truth.
As the Saiyans watched the recordings numerous feelings welled up within them, the primary of which was rage for those who had been injured or killed in battles Frost led them into. But then Alex showed them the scene of himself killing Frost, instantly at that, and declared,
"As you have all seen, Frost is dead by my hand! But that is not yet the end of it!" Alex then conjured an image of the same captains Frost had been meeting with, and continued,
"Before I take you all into Asora, I want the Saiyan people to prove they are worthy! Show me you deserve to be my warriors, by wiping out all of the remaining space pirates in the entire universe!"
Though normally asking that would be considered idiocy since the pirates had several powerful warriors within their ranks, the Saiyans didn't care with their flaring emotions, and they all cried out in their anger and grief for those who had been lost to the pirates.
"Before that though!" Alex cried out, subduing their outcries slightly, another figure stepped forward to stand next to him.
Gesturing to the man next to him, Vegeta Sr, Alex then stated to the masses that were watching,
"There is a transformation that only the most powerful and skilled Saiyans are capable of performing, one that multiplies their power by several times their original level to give them the strength to defeat even the strongest opponents! The Super Saiyan Transformation!" As Alex declared that, Vegeta Sr then demonstrated said transformation for the people as his aura and hair turned to a brilliant gold, and those around the world felt the massive source of energy as it spiked ever higher.
"THIS IS WHAT I OFFER YOU ALL! PROVE YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES!" Alex declared with passion in his voice As Vegeta Sr's energy spiked even higher, until he was just shy of elevating to the second stage, which they decided not to show just yet.
And with the increase in energy, the passions of the spectating Saiyans skyrocketed as well, which Alex capitalized on as he shouted,
"WHAT DO YOU SAY!?!"
"""LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR!!!"""
In response to Alex's declaration, the masses shouted their support of their new emperor, who brought them this new technique to use to enact their fury of the space pirates.
"""LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR!!!"""
"""LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR!!!"""
"""LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR!!!"""
Over and over again they cheered, to which Alex flared his energy so that all of them could feel it throughout the entire planet. But as he did so, Alex did a little something else.
Tucked away in an alley as they watched the announcement, dressed in rags and covered in scars, an elderly Saiyan snorted as he waved his right arm in dismissal, which ended in a stump. Or at least it was supposed to.
When the man waved his arm, instead of the stump he'd seen the last twenty years he saw his hand there. Tears welled up within his eyes as he moved his new fingers in disbelief, before standing and strutting out of the alley with renewed strength, and purpose.
With strength he hadn't felt since his prime, the elderly Saiyan roared out along with his people as similar miracles appeared all over planet Sadala. No matter who they were, Saiyan men and women who bore crippling injuries that had drove them from the battlefield stood with straight back for the first time in years, strength they long forgotten filling their limbs as their injuries healed.
All over Sadala energies flared, and Saiyans began firing blasts into the skies in their excitement, making the planet appear like a miniature star with how bright it was becoming.
Smirking at how successful his introduction had been, Alex flared his cape dramatically and strutted back into the palace, where he found Sadala and every other Saiyan there kneeling before him. Even Sala looked at him with a reverence that hadn't been there before.
"Your majesty..." Sadala uttered in awe as Alex stood before him, before his emperor decreed,
"Vegeta, I expect several of our warriors to be able to make the Super Saiyan transformation within the week, and only then will they attack. The entire planet is united in their desire for justice to be done, and I doubt we will be able to reignite their enthusiasm this effectively again in the near future. Make the most of it."
"Of course your majesty." Vegeta Sr said as he bowed deeply, knowing full well that there should be at least a few Saiyans that can make that kind of timeline.
Alex then added while he also looked at Sadala,
"I'm also making the two of you my generals, since you both have the most experience leading out of everyone else here. If I'm not around, then you two are in charge."
""Sire!"" Both former kings saluted, knowing full well that Alex didn't need to give either of them a position of authority. But both were deeply appreciative of the opportunity.
Alex then turned to Caulifla, her followers, Sala, and Kale, and said,
"You all will return with me. Kale will begin training to control her powers, while I expect the rest of you to begin training to achieve the Super Saiyan forms as well. In a week you'll be sent back to help in upcoming battle."
