Everything was finally settled. Now, the most urgent matter was to get his parents and the others off Planet Vegeta.
Swoosh!
Qin Yan sensed his parents' energy signatures and vanished from the spot using Instant Transmission.
Inside the main control room, Qin Yan's parents and the others were staring at the screens. Planet Vegeta was a ruinous sight; terrifying pillars of magma shot into the sky, and the landscape was crumbling. Terror was etched into every face.
Flash!
Qin Yan's figure appeared before Melos and the rest like a ghost.
"My child!"
"Karos!"
"Karos is back!"
When Melos saw Qin Yan return, her face lit up with joy. She rushed forward and pulled him into a tight embrace. Benas and the others also crowded around him, their faces beaming with relief.
Seeing Qin Yan return safely, the heavy weight in everyone's hearts finally lifted. Without realizing it, they had begun to look at Qin Yan as their pillar of support. Even though he was a child not even ten years old, everyone present treated him as an adult.
Judging by his actions and his overwhelming strength, Qin Yan's performance was already superior to that of any adult Saiyan. Naturally, they deferred to his judgment.
"Karos! Was that... was that really a Super Saiyan?" Benas asked, his voice trembling with a mix of anticipation and excitement.
Melos and the others leaned in, their ears perked and their eyes wide. They were desperate to know if Qin Yan had truly achieved the form of the legendary warrior. They wanted to hear the answer from his own lips.
Qin Yan scanned the group. Meeting their expectant gazes, he spoke calmly. "That's right. That form I took just now was the transformation into a Super Saiyan."
"Ahahaha! It's true! It really is the Super Saiyan!"
"Hahaha! The legend is real! Our Saiyan race truly has a Super Saiyan among us!"
"Hahaha! My son has become a Super Saiyan! This is beyond incredible!"
Hearing the confirmation directly from Qin Yan, Benas broke into a boisterous laugh, dancing with excitement. He had never imagined that the legendary warrior who only appeared once every thousand years would turn out to be his own son. His heart raced with pride.
Melos was equally elated. This was an incomparable honor, and her eyes shimmered with maternal pride. The others were equally shocked and moved. To witness the legend of the Saiyan race with their own eyes it was a source of profound honor and happiness.
"Karos! How did you become a Super Saiyan? The process must have been incredibly difficult, wasn't it? You must have suffered so much all these years," Melos asked curiously, but her voice quickly softened with concern and pity as she thought of the hardships he must have endured.
Immediately, everyone went silent, listening intently for every detail. They all wanted to know the secret behind becoming a Super Saiyan.
"Yes," Qin Yan replied with a knowing smile. "To become a Super Saiyan, one must undergo grueling cultivation. As for the specifics, we can discuss that later. The priority right now is to leave Planet Vegeta."
He gave them a simple answer it required hard work but he didn't go into the exact conditions or requirements. There would be time for that later. Telling them now would serve no purpose; Planet Vegeta was on the brink of destruction, and their first priority was to escape.
"I see... fair enough."
"By the way, what's the situation now? It looks like Planet Vegeta is about to be destroyed," Qin Yan's mother asked, looking back at the monitors. Benas and Liyah's father looked a bit disappointed that Qin Yan hadn't shared the secret, but the women were more focused on the immediate danger.
"It's like this," Qin Yan explained flatly. "During the battle, Frieza took the opportunity to destroy Planet Vegeta's core. The planet has already entered its final countdown. In about five minutes, Planet Vegeta will explode and turn into cosmic dust. We need to leave this place immediately."
"What?"
The group was struck with shock. They hadn't realized the situation had become so critical.
Just then, a youthful voice rang out from the distance. It was little Liyah.
"Brother Qin Yan!"
From afar, Liyah waved her hand happily as she flew toward them. Looking at the bright smile on her face, it was clear her battle had gone very smoothly.
"Are you okay, Brother Qin Yan?" Liyah asked, landing and looking him up and down. Although she had absolute confidence in him, the terrifying scenes of the planet's collapse had left her slightly worried.
"Hahaha! I'm fine. But what about you, Liyah? Did you run into any trouble? Are you hurt?" Qin Yan laughed, stepping forward to pat the little girl's head like a big brother.
Even though Liyah's power with Kaio-ken x5 was far greater than Salza and his team from Cooler's Armored Squadron, he feared her lack of experience might let them catch her off guard. After all, Saiyans had a habit of getting reckless once they became powerful.
"Heehee! Not at all! Everything went great! I knocked those bad guys down in no time!" Liyah chirped, her heart swelling with joy at Qin Yan's concern. She put on a vivid display, shadow-boxing and kicking to show off her victory. The little girl was bursting with pride, tilting her chin up as if she were the strongest in the universe.
"Hahaha! Good, good. Little Liyah is the best." Qin Yan was amused by her adorable and naive display, offering her plenty of praise and encouragement.
Melos, Benas, Liyah's parents Fuya and Sith, and Bardock's wife all broke into laughter at the girl's playful antics.
"Heehee! Yay! You're the best, Brother Qin Yan!" Liyah jumped for joy, grabbing Qin Yan's arm and shaking it excitedly.
Qin Yan looked at the little girl hanging off his arm and gave a gentle nudge. "Alright, Liyah. Let go now. We're leaving."
"Mm-hmm!" Liyah nodded obediently and stood to the side, no longer pestering him.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Several dark figures flew in from the distance it was Bardock and his teammates, including Tora.
"Gine!!" Bardock shouted, waving to them from the air.
"Bardock!" Gine responded happily as she saw her husband.
When Bardock landed, Gine threw herself into his arms. Seeing him return safe and sound, she wept with relief.
"It's okay, I'm back," Bardock said gently, patting Gine's back to comfort her.
"Bardock! Are you all alright?" Benas and the other parents exchanged brief greetings with Bardock and his teammates, expressing their mutual concern.
"Karos, was that... was that form truly the Super Saiyan?" After the pleasantries, Bardock and Tora turned to Qin Yan. They wore the same expressions as the others faces full of excitement and awe.
"Yes," Qin Yan replied simply.
Even though they had already guessed the truth, hearing it confirmed left Bardock and his team shaken. Their eyes filled with worship, excitement, and reverence. They were thrilled just to have witnessed the legendary Super Saiyan.
"Alright," Qin Yan said calmly. "Planet Vegeta will be destroyed in a few minutes. What are your plans? Bardock, do you want to leave with us?" Qin Yan extended a deliberate invitation.
All eyes turned to Bardock, waiting for his decision. Just when everyone assumed he would agree, Bardock spoke up.
"No," he said suddenly. "I have to go notify the others. I need to tell our people to leave Planet Vegeta while there's still time. I want to save as many as I can. After that, I'll take my own spaceship and leave."
