Chapter 17: Arrival at the Galactic Frontier!
Mu Chuan had already sensed the malevolence from Frieza's army.
Although he believed he could escape, the vastness and dangers of the universe meant that fleeing once wouldn't guarantee safety forever. Besides, Frieza was just an early-stage boss. If he shrank back now, he might as well find a place to hide and keep signing in. Why bother striving for greatness?
After boarding the spaceship, Mu Chuan began a brutal training regimen. He didn't care how the other Saiyans fared, but he needed to ensure his combat power remained at its peak, always ready with a means of survival.
The multiplier on his training gear had long reached ten times. However, he had not increased it further because he believed that only by evenly distributing the load could he gain more significant improvements. Thus, the spaceship's gravity was set to 20 times the Earth's gravity!
The combined effect of the gear and the gravity was terrifying, making it difficult even for him to move. It was akin to 200 times normal gravity! Yet, under this intense gravity, he could feel himself improving every moment.
Just a few push-ups were enough to see progress!
This demonstrated the excellence of the Saiyan bloodline. As long as they were willing to push themselves, their combat power would skyrocket.
While Mu Chuan trained intensely, the entire squad of Saiyans was not idly resting in the spaceship. During their spare time, Mu Chuan had already equipped all the Saiyans with gravity devices. Although the maximum multiplier was only ten times, given the limited time on Planet Vegeta, they couldn't achieve more.
Even so, this setup allowed all the Saiyans to steadily improve during the voyage, ensuring they didn't waste this time entirely.
Ten days passed quietly.
The Saiyan squad arrived at the Galactic Frontier. They landed on a desolate planet, barren of any vegetation or animals, with nothing but desolation as far as the eye could see. Even the air was dreadful. However, they didn't mind, as a barren planet meant there were no other beings, leaving ample space for training!
"This planet is so barren, no one would want it even if you tried to sell it!" remarked one of the Saiyans disdainfully.
Each Saiyan harbored mercenary thoughts, a trait cultivated from long-standing habits and experiences.
Mu Chuan, unfazed by their comments, addressed the group, "From now on, you will all train in my spaceship's gravity chamber daily. If anyone dares slack off, don't blame me for being harsh. Besides, periodically, I'll test your progress!"
"You will spar with me!"
Upon hearing about training in the gravity chamber, the Saiyans didn't object, as they were already accustomed to it, even with their gravity gear. However, when they heard about sparring with Mu Chuan, a chill ran down their spines, and they instinctively took two steps back.
"Boss, sparring isn't necessary, right?"
"We'll definitely train hard and won't disappoint your trust!"
The thought of sparring with Mu Chuan terrified all the Saiyans present. Every time they sparred with him, it was a one-sided beatdown, with no chance to fight back. It was less a sparring session and more of a one-sided massacre!
Just thinking about getting beaten up regularly gave them all psychological trauma!
What kind of training is this?
Is this really training?
Mu Chuan simply believed that their power levels were too low. Even with the gravity's assistance, their progress was relatively slow. With such weak strength, how could they possibly spar with him? It wouldn't benefit him at all. It would be better to beat them down outright. Given the Saiyan bloodline, as long as they were on the brink of death and recovered, their strength would significantly increase.
Even as low-class warriors, their growth rate was impressive. Thanks to this method, even on Planet Vegeta, they had quickly reached the power levels of mid-class warriors.
Mu Chuan glanced at all the Saiyans without saying a word, merely watching silently. The Saiyans, who had initially wanted to argue, fell silent and reluctantly entered the gravity chamber, fearing they might be forced to spar right then and there—a terrifying prospect!
As the Saiyans entered the gravity chamber, Mu Chuan checked his current strength. During the space journey, he had been training relentlessly. As soon as he adapted to the increased gravity, he immediately raised the multiplier, pushing his body to train under extreme conditions.
As a result, he felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment.
Host: Mu Chuan
Age: 16
Bloodline: Saiyan
Sign-in: Daily random sign-in
Combat Power: 822,000
Skills: Transformation Skill (Zarbon), Limb Regeneration, Demon Transformation.
As a translucent panel appeared, Mu Chuan was astonished to see the combat power value on his information panel. Although he felt that his strength had been increasing rapidly and he had been signing in daily, he didn't expect such a terrifying growth. His combat power had reached 822,000!
This had already surpassed Frieza's first form. With his Demon Transformation, his combat power could soar to 1.6 million! Even if Frieza's second form was at full power, Mu Chuan would have the strength to crush him!
However, this still wasn't enough!
This only meant he had some strength in this universe. Against slightly stronger bosses, he would still be insignificant!
"My strength is still not strong enough!"
"With my current base combat power, becoming a Super Saiyan isn't possible yet! I need to try mastering the Great Ape form. If I can control that power, my combat power could increase tenfold!"
"With such strength, I'm getting closer to breaking free from Frieza's control. Once I surpass Frieza, I must imprison a few individuals as sign-in targets."
"Signing in daily, I refuse to believe I can't gain the abilities of the Frost Demon race!"
Although Mu Chuan was pleased with his rapid combat power growth, he still felt his base strength was insufficient and needed further improvement! He was also eager to master the full power of the Great Ape, which he saw as the foundation of his power!
At the same time, he fantasized about the future. If he could truly defeat Frieza, he could use Frieza as a sign-in material. Of course, he didn't dare to think about Cooler, as that guy currently had a combat power of 470 million, far more terrifying than Frieza! For now, he could only consider Frieza as a potential target.
