In the darkness, two voices beckon. Zhang Chen heard a cry in his sleep, struggling to awaken. Blinking hard, his consciousness broke through the darkness, and he got up.

"This... this is..." He stopped, taken aback.

Before him, the land was in shambles, littered with charred bodies and uprooted trees. Deep cracks spread across the ground, extending into the distance. Where was his bed? Wasn't he sleeping at home? Was this all just a dream within a dream?

"The weak warrior proves his weakness by fainting," an indifferent voice said from the side, sending a shiver down Zhang Chen's spine.

Zhang Chen, filled with both excitement and disbelief, recognized the figures before him: Vegeta and Nappa!

To witness Saiyans from the Dragon Ball series was like a dream come true.

Zhang Chen slapped his face, but he felt the pain.

"Not a dream!"

Nappa looked at him curiously. "Hey, I thought you wouldn't be so foolish?"

"It's truly worthless!" Vegeta grumbled with a half-hearted scowl.

The reality of pain and touch made him realize that this was no dream. And he, Zhang Chen, touched his long flowing hair and observed the battle suit he wore, along with the swaying tail, instantly recognizing his identity. He was Raditz, the brother of Son Goku.

Zhang Chen had always loved Dragon Ball for its blend of humor and intensity. As a child, he considered it a classic, with manga, merchandise, and clothing adorning his room. The seven Dragon Balls, capable of granting any wish, always ignited his imagination. If only such magic Dragon Balls existed in reality, life would transform into a colorful adventure story.

Although he knew it was impossible, he purchased seven Dragon Balls online. He expected them to be ordinary replicas, but to his surprise, they felt weighty and exquisite in his hands.

Each of the seven Dragon Balls before him sparkled crystal-clear, smooth like jade. Inside, stars emitted a faint glow, shimmering like brilliance dancing upon their surfaces. When the balls collided, they produced a crisp, ethereal sound that resonated deep within his soul.

Zhang Chen caressed the crystal orbs, contemplating: "If only I could make a wish to be transported to the world of Dragon Ball and become a Saiyan or something."

He treated the seven precious orbs as treasures, placing them at the center of his window display, carefully cushioned with a red cloth to accentuate their splendor.

Then, he sat down for a nap, and then...

He had truly crossed over.

What's more, he had become a Saiyan, albeit the tragically fated Raditz.

The tragedy quickly unfolded with only a few exchanged words and a lunchbox. Soon after, Raditz faded from memory. Zhang Chen couldn't help but utter his frustration, "Goku, you spared Vegeta, but couldn't you spare your own brother? Did Raditz's hair change to three instantly?"

The once-imagined journey to the Dragon Ball world had suddenly become his reality, leaving him slightly bewildered. While unbelievable, his transformation into Raditz remained an absolute truth.

His immediate task was to understand the situation and survive.

"Hey, Raditz, did you lose your memory?" Nappa asked, seeing his hesitation.

"No, nothing. Just a wound on my forehead, and my head feels a bit dizzy."

"Hmph," Vegeta scoffed. "If it weren't for the fact that only a few of us survived, I would have killed you."

Raditz had nothing to say. After all, he was a lower-level warrior who hadn't even overcome the weakness of his tail.

In the world of Dragon Ball, strength was everything, and he lacked it.

"Raditz's bloodline is too inferior, after all. But that planet we attacked was quite troublesome. These people might not have high combat power individually, but their sheer numbers make them difficult to deal with," Nappa grinned.

"Just a bunch of weaklings. We should get rid of them as soon as possible," Vegeta stated coldly. Then, he glanced at Raditz. "However, even if you're useless, you might have some strength during the full moon. Bring him along and show him what a real Saiyan is."

Raditz felt the weight of Vegeta's gaze upon him.

Was this pressure a reflection of their disparity in strength? Vegeta was truly different.

"I understand. Once my wound heals, I'll find my brother," Raditz nodded.

For now, he couldn't confront Vegeta and had to comply.

"We'll take care of things here. Your lack of fighting power won't make much difference," Nappa proudly declared. Saiyans had a hierarchical sense of dignity, priding themselves on being a warrior race. Once they transformed into Great Apes, they possessed enough power to destroy entire planets, making most inhabitants tremble. However, others saw the Saiyans as nothing more than barbaric and aggressive, unaware of their potential.

The status of a prince in the warrior race was determined by birthright. Vegeta, being a prince, had incredible talent, with hundreds of battle power at birth. In a few years, he surpassed adult soldiers and asserted his dominance. Nappa, born into a prestigious lineage, had decent talent as well. His vast combat experience made him self-assured.

Low-level fighters like Raditz and Son Goku represented the majority of the Saiyan population, viewed as nothing by intermediate and senior fighters. Consequently, Raditz was disregarded among the three and had no authority to speak.

No! Now that he was in the world of Dragon Ball, he couldn't allow himself to perish so easily. He had to become strong, stronger than Nappa, stronger than Vegeta, and even stronger than any enemy or Son Goku in the future!

Gazing at Vegeta and Nappa with determination, Raditz made up his mind to train on this planet. Unlike the Saiyans, Earth had more effective and reasonable training methods, bolstered by the use of ki. Despite Earth's initial weakness, it had produced numerous powerful warriors. Starting from a lower point, Raditz was confident he could surpass them through training.

He rose from the ground, resolute in his decision. "I'm going to find some food."

"Fine, suit yourself. Just don't get killed by them!" Vegeta replied nonchalantly.

Raditz nodded and attempted to leap into the air but failed to sustain flight. After a few unsuccessful attempts, he gave up and instead dashed away.

Nappa and Vegeta exchanged awkward glances.

Indeed, Raditz couldn't fly...
