65 Ki Crystals (65)

Planet Mentels was a very small planet.

It had a light green sky, long plains of dry land covered with soft bluegrass and rocky abandoned mountains. Three suns appeared in the sky, one much closer than the others, giving red hues as white clouds formed, filling the air.

Broly and Mr Yellow were standing around the machines, a perplexed look on Broly's face as he examined the readings that gave the heat and ki signatures around the planet.

Mr Yellow also projected a holographic sonar reading, depicting a deep section of the planet that had jagged shapes protruding out of the earth.

Broly had stopped asking Mr Yellow when he learned how to do these things.

"That's strange, the ki and the sonar readings all align in these regions, what do you think it is?" Broly said, not wanting to hastily make a conclusion.

"Crystals, almost certainly, the jagged structures have to be natural, nobody reasonable would artificially grow them in these places."

'Did you say ki crystals?' Yami interrupted, directly addressing Broly.

'Yeah, what about them?'

'Back on Planet Vegeta, during the life of the fourth Legendary Super Saiyan, there was this rumour about a race who passed down their memories and elemental abilities through ki crystals! On top of that, they had a legend that there was a Super Crystal that could grant the consumer elemental superpowers!' Yami said, telling the tall tale dramatically.

'Really? Were they strong?' Broly asked, his fighting spirit waking up.

'Yes! The crystals turned an ordinary race into the universe's top contenders! At the time anyway, the fourth Legendary Super Saiyan was much stronger than them' Yami said, almost as if it was obvious.

'Oh...even then I guess the ki crystals are still worth a visit' Broly said, intrigued by how they worked.

"What are all of these little dots on the sonar map?" Broly asked engaging Mr Yellow.

"Ships, somebody is trying to discover this region," Mr Yellow said, matter of factly.

"There are about 5 large ships over there, why so many for such a small planet?"

"Maybe they're really strong, I don't know," Mr Yellow said dismissively.

A small smile formed on Broly's face.

"I'm going to head out, I want to see the Planet first hand," Broly said, excitement slowing building up

"We built explorer mode for this exact purpose! Let's explore in the safety of our ship!" Mr Yellow said, trying to protect Broly.

'You have to secure those crystals at all costs! Do you really want the others on those ships to reap all the benefits?' Yami asked.

Broly's heart thumped as a new objective appeared in his mind.

"You take the ship, I'll go around and explore by myself," Broly said decisively.

'There you go!' Yami cheered in his head.

"You sure? We don't know much about the planet, something could go wrong!" Mr Yellow said worriedly.

"What's my power level?" Broly asked.

Mr Yellow blinked, enabling the software in his eyes that would give him a reading.

"[Broly] - 17

Strength: 8,984,000

Agility: 7,425,000

Intelligence: 145,000

Endurance: 215,000

Battle Power: 16,124,000

Threat Level: SSS"

'No fucking way!' Yami screamed to himself.

Broly was already stronger than any other Saiyan!

At his age, of course.

"Are you worried anymore?" Broly asked, looking at Mr Yellow convincingly.

"Fine, go!" Mr Yellow said as Broly started walking away.

Broly griped a metallic band wrapped around his neck and upon touch, it disconnected at the back reforming as a smartphone in Broly's palm.

Broly tapped the screen twice and a door opened up at the edge of the ship, a smooth platform slowly descending towards the ground.

Broly stepped out and instantly felt a change.

'It's light, like really, really light' Broly thought to Yami.

Broly struggled to walk, he felt like there was no force on his body and his muscles tingled.

'You can move faster then! Hurry!' Yami said urging Broly to move.

He levitated, bringing ki to his body and immediately flying.

Broly looked forward, his eyesight quickly able to make out some spaceships and a tall red spire on the skyline.

'Go to the spaceships first, you can gather intel on the planet from the people on it' Yami said, advising Broly.

'You sound really invested in finding those crystals, is there something you're not telling me?' Broly asked.

'It was for your own benefit, and after I tried so hard to be helpful, nevermind, do what you want,' Yami said retreating early.

Broly snickered.

'Don't be like that, fine, we'll get you those magic crystals'

'Thank you' Yami responded.

Broly was speechless and a few seconds later Yami realised his mistake.

'Did you just thank me?'

'No dipshit, you were hallucinating'

'You did, didn't you!' Broly thought, deeply surprised.

He expected to become a Super Saiyan God before Yami would be nice.

'Maybe this planet is dangerous after all, the atmosphere filled with gas that makes you see things'

'See things?'

'Hear things! I meant hear things!'

Broly laughed out loud as he leapt into the air, an airtight, skin-thick ki barrier forming around his body as he flew.

He approached the spaceship, although calling it that was a stretch, it was a glorified flying bus.

Inside the spaceship, laughter was still ringing out.

"So should we conquer this planet?"

"While it may not be on the agenda, Freiza certainly will not complain if we hand him an extra source of income," Cui responded.

"So we should declare war?"

"Wait a few minutes, if that idiot Pilot comes back then we can raze all we want, if he doesn't we need to take this place seriously," Cui said, revealing his plan.

"That's a good idea!"

"You really are the smartest boss!"

"What can I say?" Cui said proudly, not even considering how to fly away.

It was at this moment, Broly entered the spaceship.

He clambered inside quietly, his eyes seeing the various soldiers of the Freiza Force army clad in combat gear.

"Huh? Who are-"

Cui couldn't even finish asking his question.

BSH!

BSH!

BSH!

Many heads were forcefully jolted as pieces of machinery broke apart, forcefully concussing half of the soldiers in the ship. The scattered pieces of metal fell to the floor.

'O-Our Scouters!'

"Th-They broke!"

Broly was caught off guard by the series of surprised soldiers all outfitted in armour.

His mind worked quickly.

"What's your power level? Mine's pretty big!"
