Chapter 772 - Chapter 772 Trampled Pride

"Decisive in action, in this regard, you are much better than your father. However, your arrogance and worthless pride are just like your father's. When you lack strength, you shouldn't show such arrogance, as enemies won't accommodate you!"

Bardock frowned. Vegeta's personality perfectly inherited from King Vegeta but also surpassed him, becoming more decisive. However, his arrogance acted like a provocation, continuously attracting enemies.

Bardock didn't see any good in such worthless pride and arrogance. In battle, it easily attracted enemies and led to situations where one could get ganged up on. So as a warrior, Bardock didn't have a high opinion of Vegeta.

And reality proved that Vegeta often ruined things more than he accomplished. The Android incident was a prime example. When Cell was still in his Semi-Perfect Form, they could have directly killed him, but Vegeta, feeling stronger, swelled with pride and then got beaten like a dog by Perfect Cell. At that time, Vegeta perfectly demonstrated what it meant to ruin things.

Strictly speaking, Goku's death was also caused by him and the arrogant Gohan.

The same was true in the subsequent Majin Buu Saga. Vegeta acted recklessly, fought Goku without regard for the situation, completely oblivious to the circumstances. This guy was simply beyond saving. In the later major plots, it was almost always him causing trouble, displaying astonishing foolishness.

"Enough talk!"

After crushing the scouter, Vegeta directly attacked Bardock. He knew Bardock's former strength, so this time he unleashed all his power, delivering a fierce punch.

If this punch landed on Earth, it would undoubtedly create a massive hole, but Bardock was indifferent. Vegeta's mere less than twenty-thousand power level was as insignificant to him as a mosquito.

Boom!

Vegeta's punch landed on Bardock, causing the ground to collapse and triggering a massive explosion from the impact. A cloud of dust enveloped the area. Nappa, witnessing Vegeta's power, was somewhat taken aback.

His power level of several thousand was completely incomparable with Vegeta's power level.

"Your punch... doesn't seem to match the arrogance of your personality and mouth!"

As the dust cleared, Bardock's voice emerged, revealing him standing unscathed with his arms crossed. Vegeta's fist was planted in Bardock's stomach, but it hadn't harmed him at all.

Not even Bardock's clothing was damaged, as he had used his ki to nullify the attack. In fact, without it, his body could have easily withstood the blow, but his clothes might not have.

"Impossible! How can this be? Even when I left, my power level was already over ten thousand, which is much stronger than you. Now, my power level is already 18,000, how can you block my punch so effortlessly? Even if you've grown stronger, how did you become so powerful in such a short time?"

Vegeta was utterly stunned by Bardock's defense, feeling completely outmatched.

"I've told you, you're too weak and incredibly short-sighted. You were born with a high power level and quickly surpassed ten thousand, but after all these years, your power level has only increased this much!"

Looking at Vegeta in front of him, Bardock couldn't help but shook his head. The prince had squandered his talent; with proper training, he could have been much stronger, possibly surpassing Bardock.

But now, Vegeta's power level was disappointing to Bardock. Even Raditz, Bardock's eldest son, had surpassed Vegeta, let alone Kakarot, Bardock's youngest and strongest son. Bardock was thoroughly unimpressed with Vegeta.

"Impossible! This is all a lie! Bardock, you can't fool me, I am the prince…"

Before Vegeta could finish his sentence, he felt an immense force hit him, followed by intense pain. He was sent flying, creating a long trench in the ground before being blasted into the sky.

Just one blow left the previously arrogant Vegeta gravely injured. The attack was so overwhelming that he remained suspended in the upper atmosphere, showing no signs of falling.

"Prince Vegeta, Bardock…How dare you…"

At this moment, Nappa was scared to death. He thought that despite Bardock breaking the curse of being a low-class Saiyan warrior, although he is not Bardock's opponent, Vegeta can still easily deal with him.

But he was wrong. Not only was he himself no match, but even Vegeta couldn't compete to Bardock. The gap in power was astronomical.

"Kakarot, take care of this one. There's no need to hold back. These Saiyans have no normal human emotions at all, so just kill him!"

Bardock emphasized the need for decisiveness. After all, Saiyans are all cold people.

And among Saiyans, he and Gine were the anomalies, as they showed compassion and care. Most of Saiyan are evil, as they conquered a lot of planets and assisted Frieza in his conquests.

Moreover, Saiyans were notoriously brutal. In the original Saiyan setting, after a child's power level is determined, they would send them to other planets immediately. There, they would grow up and eventually slaughter all life on that planet. Once the slaughter was nearly complete, they would contact their superiors to take over and sell the planet for a good price.

While later versions of Saiyans showed some improvement, the core brutality remained unchanged. That's why Bardock knew that leaving these Saiyans alive would be a huge mistake. After all, he's not naive like the original Goku.

And the current Kakarot was not the naive Goku of the original work. He was taught by Bardock had instilled in him the principle of leaving no loose ends since he was a child, so the current Goku was also ruthless and decisive.

In fact, Bardock learned this lesson from Frieza. If it weren't for Asahi, Bardock's family would have been wiped out by Frieza, who intended to eliminate all threats.

But now that they are still fine, it will cause endless troubles to Frieza, and even led to his own downfall. Bardock was aware of this and taught Goku not to show unnecessary mercy, to avoid similar consequences.

Now, Bardock could easily kill Frieza if he wanted, but he was simply too lazy to bother.
