Dragon Ball Universe

Vegeta and Nappa have arrived on Earth.

Unlike the original storyline, upon arrival, they used their power to create a small artificial moon, immediately transforming into Great Apes.

They began a brutal and relentless assault.

Every building in their sight was completely destroyed.

Sensing the Saiyan invasion, Piccolo and the others quickly moved to confront them.

With their current strength, they should have had a good chance of defeating Vegeta and Nappa.

However, the Saiyan's power increases tenfold when they transform into Great Apes.

As a result, the battle had barely started when Piccolo and the others found themselves at a disadvantage.

Now, they were all severely injured, lying on the ground, unable to move.

"Damn it, they're too strong! We worked so hard to get stronger," Krillin said, his face full of frustration as he looked at the giant ape before him.

They were utterly powerless.

The Saiyans' power was terrifying; no matter how they attacked, it had no effect.

Even targeting the tail was futile, as it was too well protected.

They had given everything they had, yet were left completely helpless. It was so frustrating!

"Hey, Namekian, tell me where the Dragon Balls are!" Vegeta demanded as he grabbed Piccolo.

Piccolo was also severely injured, powerless to resist. In the hands of the Great Ape Vegeta, he was like a toy.

"I won't tell you. Kill me if you dare," Piccolo sneered, his eyes filled with defiance.

He could feel immense potential within him, but the Saiyan invasion left him no time to train. Otherwise, he was confident that if his potential were unleashed, he could definitely defeat Vegeta!

"Damn it, just one more day..."

Piccolo was filled with regret, but it was too late now.

"Heh, you think I can't find the Dragon Balls if you die? I'll tear the Earth apart if I have to, and I have a thousand ways to torture you, to break your spirit, until you tell me where the Dragon Balls are."

Vegeta began to tighten his grip on Piccolo.

"AAAAHHHH!!"

Piccolo screamed in agony as his bones felt like they were shattering, bit by bit.

Vegeta was deliberately doing this to make Piccolo experience the gradual pain of his body being crushed.

He found Piccolo's suffering amusing.

"If you don't want to suffer, tell me where the Dragon Balls are. Otherwise, not only you but all your companions will be killed," Vegeta said, looking at Krillin and the others lying on the ground.

"Heh, I'm not close to them. Kill them if you want," Piccolo sneered. He really didn't care about the lives of these Earthlings.

"Oh, is that so? What about this kid?" Vegeta asked, picking up the heavily injured Gohan.

"Hmm!"

Piccolo's expression changed when he saw Gohan.

"This kid seems to care about you. He tried to help you during the fight, and you seem to care about him too. Don't think I didn't notice," Vegeta said with a sinister smile.

He then began to squeeze Gohan's head with his fingers.

"Mmmmmm!!"

Gohan screamed in agony, as if his brain was about to explode.

Piccolo, who had been cold-blooded a moment ago, found it hard to maintain his composure as he watched Gohan scream. He tried to shut his eyes and pretend he couldn't see.

But hearing Gohan's cries, he couldn't help but picture the scene.

"What? Are you really going to let this kid die?" Vegeta grinned, tightening his grip on Gohan.

Gohan's screams grew louder and more desperate.

"Gohan!"

Piccolo couldn't bear it any longer. His feelings became increasingly conflicted.

He didn't understand why he cared so much about Gohan's life. To him, Gohan was just a tool!

"Uncle Piccolo, don't tell them! You can't let them find out where the Dragon Balls are!" Gohan shouted through his pain. He didn't care how much he suffered; even if he had to sacrifice himself, he couldn't let the Saiyans find out where the Dragon Balls were!

"Stubborn kid. Let's see how long you can hold out!" Vegeta said, increasing the pressure, ready to crush Gohan's head.

"Gohan..."

Piccolo was moved by his disciple's determination. He didn't want to reveal the Dragon Balls' location, but he couldn't stand by and watch Gohan die.

He was torn, uncertain of what to do.

"Goku, where are you? Why haven't you arrived yet?" Piccolo desperately wanted to shout to the heavens for Goku, hoping he would appear in time to save his son.

"Let go of Gohan!!"

At that moment, a furious voice echoed from the sky, and a streak of light descended.

"Hmm!"

Hearing this voice, everyone looked up at the falling light.

It was Goku!

"Kaio-Ken x3!"

Goku immediately used the Kaio-Ken x3, accelerating as he became a red blur, like a meteor, landing in front of Vegeta.

He swiftly fired an energy blast at Vegeta's eye.

"AAAAHHH!"

Vegeta screamed in pain as one of his eyes was hit.

Instinctively, he covered his eye, releasing Gohan and Piccolo in the process.

Goku quickly caught them.

"Are you guys okay?"

"I'm not dead yet. Took you long enough," Piccolo coughed.

"Sorry, I'm late. I'll take care of them now," Goku said, setting Piccolo and Gohan down and turning to face the Great Ape Vegeta and Nappa.

"You must be the Saiyans who came to invade Earth. I won't let you get away with it!"

As Goku spoke, his aura flared intensely.

"Damn! Kakarot actually showed up. He really did come back to life!" Vegeta was shocked.

"Hmph, you're just a low-class warrior. What's with the arrogance?"

Nappa roared in disdain, picking up his scouter to check Goku's power level.

"What? A power level of 12,000! How is this possible? He's just a low-class warrior!"

Nappa was stunned. Despite being from a prestigious warrior race and training hard for years, he hadn't broken the 10,000 mark.

How could a low-class warrior surpass him?

"Damn it!"

Nappa, filled with anger, immediately launched a mouth blast!
