'Boom~~~!!!!!!!' The energy blast engulfed Dore's entire body.
When the energy dissipated, Dore was gone.
The overwhelming destructive power of the blast had incinerated Dore into ashes.
Instantly killing Dore, who had a power level of 185,000, even Cooler couldn't hide his astonishment.
It had been years since he saw such power from a low-class warrior.
"Hey, are you kidding? Dore got killed by this guy?! Impossible!" Neiz exclaimed, his face pale, retreating involuntarily, sweat drenching him.
He knew how strong Dore was.
Being killed in one move meant the opponent's power was at least 200,000.
"Wait!!! 5000 power level… it didn't change…"
"Damn!! This guy can control his power level at will. Dore fell for it from the start!"
"His true power level is over 250,000."
Salza was drenched in sweat.
He couldn't understand how a Saiyan could have such immense power.
"250,000… is that really a Saiyan's power level?" Neiz was equally drenched in sweat.
Grand Elder Pybara, seeing Lin Chuan's one-hit kill of Dore, felt immense joy.
Regardless of Lin Chuan's identity, if he could defeat these villains, he would be the most honored friend of the Yardratians.
"Even if his power level is 250,000, you two together should manage," Cooler, intrigued by Lin Chuan, ordered.
Salza: "Yes, Lord Cooler."
Neiz: "Yes, Lord Cooler."
Cooler had given the order; they had no choice but to fight.
Otherwise, their deaths would be even worse.
Salza's power level was 170,000.
Neiz's was 163,000.
Together, even with 250,000 power level, they stood a chance.
But that was their limit.
The two exchanged a glance, adopting fighting stances.
Both gathered their energy
secretly and launched an attack simultaneously, one from the left, and one from the right, flanking Lin Chuan.
"Utterly boring, the strength of ants," Lin Chuan muttered, never sparing those seeking death.
These two were even weaker than Dore, and despite attacking each other, they were no threat.
Garbage belongs in the trash.
Lin Chuan, feeling insulted, responded.
As they moved, Lin Chuan acted at the same moment.
Faster than lightning, in a breath, he appeared before Salza and Neiz, hands glowing with energy pressed against their chests.
"Impossible?!!" Salza's face changed drastically.
"How is he this fast?!" Neiz was terrified.
'Boom!!!!!!'
'Boom!!!!!!'
Energy beams shot out, consuming Salza and Neiz.
They met the same fate as Dore, reduced to ashes by Lin Chuan's destructive energy attack.
Killing his two subordinates in an instant, Cooler's astonishment grew.
[Is this young man sent by the heavens to save us?!]
[Wonderful, he looks strong and will surely defeat Cooler.]
Grand Elder Pybara's spirits soared, his previous fear replaced by hope.
'Clap clap clap!!!' Cooler, unfazed, applauded.
Lin Chuan turned to Cooler.
"Your subordinates are dead, yet you seem pleased. Are you stupid or just stupid?" Lin Chuan mocked expressionlessly.
His words branded Cooler as a fool.
"Sharp-tongued, they died because they were weak. But you, you've piqued my interest. As a Saiyan with such power, I'm impressed."
"Your display suggests your power level exceeds mere tens of thousands, I'd say it's over a million?"
"With my three squad members dead, I have an opening. Why not join me? One step below me, but above millions!"
Cooler valued Lin Chuan highly.
He understood the principle that quality over quantity mattered and offered Lin Chuan a position.
His squad members, all meticulously chosen, had power levels over 150,000. Even Frieza's strongest, Ginyu, didn't meet his standards.
Having traveled much of the universe, warriors like Lin Chuan were rare.
Recruiting him was ideal.
Listening to Cooler's offer, Lin Chuan suppressed a laugh.
This guy was truly arrogant.
But then again, in this era, it was indeed their time.
"I prefer being above millions, not below one! Besides, even if I agree, aren't you afraid I'll betray you and take you down?" Lin Chuan asked playfully.
In truth, both Frieza and Cooler were extremely arrogant.
Their arrogance led to their ultimate demise.
Cooler's end was even more humiliating; after sending Goku away, he came to Earth and was defeated by him.
Cooler showed no surprise at Lin Chuan's words, remaining unexpectedly calm.
"Every warrior under me has the ambition to replace me, but they all fail. Do you know why?" Cooler's cold aura spread rapidly as he spoke.
With power level reaching millions, his pressure bore down on Lin Chuan.
As Cooler's pressure spread, the temperature dropped sharply, and Grand Elder Pybara was terrified.
Lin Chuan, unaffected by Cooler's aura, stood firm.
Even without transforming into a Super Saiyan, he could control his power perfectly.
Moreover, his body was brimming with life energy.
Not yet divine energy, but denser than regular ki.
Using the Super Saiyan energy pool, he could be as strong as he wanted.
A mere million-level power!
Perfect for testing his base form!
"Scared speechless? Heh heh heh… as expected."
"Let me tell you, my power level is 150 million!"
"You don't think you can beat me, do you?"
Cooler flaunted his form arrogantly.
He thought his icy aura could frighten Lin Chuan.
But Lin Chuan remained unfazed, looking at Cooler as if he were a clown.
"That's right, I'm not impressed. 150 million power level is impressive?" Lin Chuan said, arms crossed, cold eyes on Cooler.
"Hmph~~!!! You killed my men and now speak like this? You're seeking death, Saiyan monkey. If you won't serve me, then die!" Cooler's smile vanished, replaced by killing intent.
Cooler moved like lightning.
'Boom!!!!!!!!!!!'
Billion-level energy, coupled with immense destructive force, unleashed a punch that Lin Chuan casually blocked.
They clashed, their power spreading, creating a massive crater beneath them.
Grand Elder Pybara, caught in the shockwave, was sent flying hundreds of meters away.
