The low-class Saiyans had followed Reccome from the south; there were twenty of them. Recoome turned around, smiling.
"You guys sure about this?" Recoome asked.
They charged, and he raised one hand, shooting a ki blast that obliterated all of them. He flew east and landed in the middle of the road. The Saiyans around him stepped forward curiously.
"RECOOME HAS AN ANNOUNCEMENT!" he shouted, spreading his arms wide.
He told them basically what Ginyu had said, and that if they accept he would spare them. The fifty Saiyans who had been surrounding him did not accept it, and Recoome's face lit up in joy.
They came at him from every angle, then Recoome opened his mouth. Pink energy began building up in his mouth, then he fired, and the beam was wide, covering all fifty Saiyans in a blinding light, vaporizing all of them in an instant. Recoome closed his mouth, smacking his lips like he had a tasty meal.
Team Bardock came around the corner from the restaurant they had just left. They did not talk and attacked Recoome, throwing a flurry of kicks and punches, which Recoome dodged easily and then caught Shugesh's ki blast on the back of his hand without turning around.
"Oh, nice form on that one!" He spun to face Shugesh. "Really committed to the approach."
"I genuinely hate this guy," Shugesh said.
They regrouped and hit him from above simultaneously.
"Up here!"
He somehow got above them and was now waving, then he did a small flip and landed on the rooftop of a building.
"You guys are really making Recoome work for it!"
The team glanced at each other, then nodded. They all moved to the top of the rooftop and brought out a power ball.
"This is either genius, or we're about to have a really bad time," Shugesh said.
The spheres detonated above them, and the Blutz Waves hit them all at once, transforming them into beserk great apes. As they transformed, they destroyed the building and roared at the same time.
"The briefing did not mention they could do that without a moon, though it's nothing that I can't handle, there as dumb as bricks," Reccome said.
The great apes fired a mouth beam towards Reccome, but as he was about to dodge it fully, Fasha's foot came down and started stomping him, with the others joining in as well.
"RECOOME RENEGADE BOMBER!" He screamed in pain, and a barrage of ki blasts came out that pushed all four of them back, though it didn't keep them back for long as they quickly recovered.
Shugesh came back first but got hit with a massive ki beam by Reccome that killed him. Fasha came in next, catching Recoome off guard with a mouth beam that left a burn across the left side of his neck. Recoome retaliated by firing another Recoome Renegade Bomber, which not only killed Fasha but also Borgos.
There was one great ape left, which was Tora. He had one side of his body burned by the Renegade Bomber. He was charging another mouth beam at Recoome.
"Hey," Recoome said. "Recoome's gotta say - you guys were great."
"RECOOME ULTRA FIGHTING BOMBER!" Recoome shouted as he raised both his hands up, and his Ki exploded; then dozens of blasts came at Tora, killing him.

Indra found Pybara at the edge of the training grounds at dawn.
"Can you teach me Ki sensing first?" Indra asked.
"Yes. That is the right place to start." Pybara said, nodding.
"I cannot explain ki sensing to you the way I would explain a technique," Pybara said. "Have you ever walked into a room and known someone else was in it before you saw them?"
Indra thought about it. "Kind of."
"That is closer to what this is than anything I could describe technically. Ki is already present in every living thing - in you, in me, in the grass under your feet. Sensing it in others is not a new skill. It is an extension of something you already have."
"So I'm already doing it and just don't know it."
"Yes, you are deaf to a sound that has always been playing. Close your eyes," Pybara said.
In the first attempt, Indra didn't feel any sensation. "There's nothing there," Indra said.
"No, there is. You are looking for something new, which is not the right way to do it, as there is nothing new to find; instead, start with what is already moving."
Indra closed his eyes again and stopped reaching, letting the sensation come to him. Something changed as he felt a warmth in his chest.
"Found it," he said.
"Now expand and let the awareness move outward," Pybara said.
He let it go outward, and immediately he sensed Pybara's presence.
"Huh, I don't know how to explain it, but it felt like I've been sensing your presence since the start," Indra said.
"That is a reasonable description. You have located a ki signature at close range, now find one further away."
Indra closed his eyes, and he sensed the ki signatures of the dozens of Yardratians. He kept sensing for five minutes straight, spreading his range as wide as he could, which covered the whole planet.
"Wow, that feels weird. It's going to take some time getting used to it."
"Do not worry, it will become background noise within a few days, but tomorrow we begin Spirit Control. Go rest up.
