Chapter 196: Fighting Slug (part I)
After experiencing Slug’s real strength, Xiaya focused and quickly suppressed his battle intent. Now, he had to delay as long as possible so that Xiling can take away all the members of the Guardian Corp from Planet Bahert.
However, this was clearly Xiaya’s wishful thinking. Slug, who was greedy for the Tree of Might’s fruits, had no desire to expend energy on such trivial matters.
Because Slug was aware that Cooler’s army was behind him and he didn’t have much time left; besides he was itching to taste the Tree of Might’s fruits.
He waved his hand, beckoning a subordinate over, and gave him an order: “You, go and finish off that boy, while others should come with me to collect the Tree of Might’s fruits.”
It was a cyan-skinned, crocodile-shaped alien. It had been following Slug for many years and was deeply trusted by him. Its Battle Power was close to 20,000, more than enough to deal with the human in front of him.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The cyan-faced alien responded in a loud voice, then stepped forward, standing between Xiaya and Slug while the other aliens followed Slug and went ahead to pick up the Tree of Might’s fruits.
Xiaya naturally wouldn’t allow them to do what they wants, as he still needed to delay them for a while. Though, he didn’t expect Slug to be so impatient.
Xiaya sighed, he realized that he had underestimated Slug’s greed for the Tree of Might’s fruits and the fear the other had of Cooler. Also, the strength he was currently revealing was perhaps too low, and could not attract Slug’s attention!
How much ability and destructiveness he had will naturally cause the opponent to pay more attention to him. Right now, he can only rely on strength to delay Slug.
After thinking about it, Xiaya flexed his muscles, and with a light shout, a vigorous and boundless imposing aura emanated from him. The aura stirred the surrounding air before turning into Ki waves, whistling in all directions.
Rustle, the cyclone began to rotate, suddenly producing violent and powerful waves, like a giant wall being pushed. A short distance away, the alien blocking his path shrieked and was sent flying away.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Slug and his subordinates’ energy detectors, worn on their hands, burned down because they had exceeded their measuring range.
“Hm? The energy detectors actually burned down?” Slug turned around, showing a little bit of surprise on his rugged face.
Because Slug’s real Battle Power was much higher than what Xiaya currently revealed, the force when Xiaya used his full strength does not pose much of a threat to Slug and as such it was naturally impossible to tell whether Xiaya’s current strength was strong or weak. He only felt that it was much more powerful than before.
However, he was, after all, an overlord who has lived for many years, so he only felt a slight discomfort in his heart.
Although Slug wasn’t affected, his subordinates, however, were on the verge of dying. When Xiaya’s aura erupted out, it was as though their bodies were being crushed by an enormous mountain, and they were unable to breathe under the powerful pressure.
“King Slug…” The cyan-faced alien that had been sent flying in the distance again arrived before Slug and cried out while trembling. Under the huge pressure, his badly battered face was oozing with beads of sweat.
“Good for nothing!” Slug furiously cursed at his subordinate, turned around and said to the aliens near the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p: “Isn’t there a large detector on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, use it to check his Battle Power!”
“Yes, yes…” After receiving the order, the aliens immediately reacted and rushed into the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p while rolling and crawling. They then turned on the giant energy detector mounted on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
The detector which was mounted on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p had an enormous output that could be used to detect large-range and high-intensity energy fluctuations. There hadn’t been any need to use it in the past, causing many people to feel that it was useless, but they didn’t expect it would be used on Planet Bahert.
Xiaya was quietly watching, while secretly checking the auras on the planet. Xiling was quickly moving, and almost every ten seconds or less, there were more than a dozen Saiyan’s auras disappearing from Planet Bahert, which meant that it would take nearly ten minutes to evacuate all the people.
“There is no hurry; you can take your time!” Xiaya said inwardly.
At the same time, seeing that Slug didn’t directly take action, he realized that Slug’s body had probably aged to a very serious extent. Otherwise, he wouldn’t sit back and watch him show off his strength like this.
In fact, Xiaya’s guess wasn’t wrong. At this time, Slug was waiting for his subordinates to report the data. If this person was weak, Slug was prepared to let his subordinates deal with him, but if Xiaya was strong, then he could only take action personally.
Sigh… If it wasn’t because he was getting old, he would have directly finished off the person in front of him. Thinking of this, his desire for the fruits of the Tree of Might became even stronger.
“How about it? what is this human’s Battle Power?” Slug impatiently asked.
“King…Slug, the detector is showing… human’s Battle Power to be …7.54 million!” The aliens shuddered and having said the number, their whole body felt cold.
“What! 7.54 million?!” Slug was dumbfounded, and his complexion darkened, black like the bottom of a pot.
This small amount of Battle Power naturally didn’t scare Slug, who was the hegemon of a region, but he was thinking of something else. Humanity, this weak race certainly can’t have such large Battle Power, but here is Planet Bahert which has the magical Tree of Might’s fruits.
The only explanation is that this human had eaten the Tree of Might’s fruit, moreover their number should be quite a lot!
“d.a.m.n, these are all this king’s things.” Slug cursed with a black face while feeling pain in his heart.
At the same time, he was also looking forward to the effect of the Tree of Might’s fruits, because even a puny human could become so strong, what then will happen after I consume it, perhaps even that Cooler wouldn’t be my opponent!
Slug was satisfyingly fantasizing.
“Human, you really made this king look at you with new eyes. If it were another time, then maybe this king could have recruited you.”
Slug said, before his tone suddenly became full of murderous intentions: “But you really shouldn’t have stolen this king’s Tree of Might’s fruits!”
Slug stepped forward, he was not fast, but with every step, his aura went through earth-shattering changes. Slug walked leisurely, and quickly covered the few meters distance, arriving in front of Xiaya, and his overwhelming energy completely erupted out.
Affected by this, a swift and fierce storm spread across all parts of Planet Bahert, and the sky became dark as if the end of the world was nigh.
“Because I ate the Tree of Might’s fruit?” The corners of Xiaya’s mouth were slightly raised. Looking at the two meters tall Slug, he sneered.
“Is that so?”
Xiaya shook his head and suddenly loudly shouted. His energy which was already at the peak, once again erupted further. The surging energy was as if the gate of a reservoir that had been acc.u.mulating for a long time suddenly opened, and the vast waves found the mouth of a drain as everything began to crazily gush out….
At this moment, Xiaya launched the Pseudo Super Saiyan mode.
Not far away, above the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, the energy detector began to beep with electronic sounds “beep! beep! beep!” and the data began to jump rapidly.
7.6 million!
8.74 million!
10 million!
……
The continuously spiking numbers frightened the aliens on the side, their eyes were opened wide, and they sunk into a state of listlessness, extremely frightened! The human’s Battle Power was still skyrocketing, which was beyond their range of understanding.
They looked up and saw a black cloud in the sky which was pressing down upon them, while sound of thunder boomed among the clouds.
There were continuous tremors beneath them on the ground, while tiny particles of dust floated above the ground.
15 million!
17 million!
