"Enemies are approaching!"
The Grand Elder suddenly frowned. As a god-like creator of Namek, his perception of the planet was absolute. He immediately sensed the incoming threat.
"What?"
Zeru was momentarily stunned.
Rumble!
At that moment, the roar of spacecraft engines echoed across the sky.
Zeru snapped back to his senses and looked up. Several warships descended from outer space into Namek, each bearing the insignia of Frieza's army.
"Talk about perfect timing."
A slight smile curved at Zeru's lips. The Grand Elder had helped him wholeheartedly, and he had been wondering how to repay the favor. Now these enemies had arrived—it was like a pillow falling from the sky just as he was about to fall asleep.
"They're all extremely powerful…"
The Grand Elder frowned slightly and turned to Nail. "Gather the elite warriors from every village. Prepare for battle at once!"
"Yes!"
Nail bowed respectfully and was about to leave to rally Namek's fighters.
"Notification!"
"Selection System activated!"
"The Ginyu Force has arrived.
Choice 1: Leave quietly. Reward: 100 Senzu Beans.
Choice 2: Eliminate them forcefully. Reward: Hyperbolic Time Chamber with 10x time flow, 500x gravity chamber, Saiyan bloodline optimization serum, purification ability."
…
At that moment, the system's notification sounded in Zeru's mind.
He felt a bit helpless. The system's intention was far too obvious—did he even have a real choice?
"Choice 2."
Without hesitation, Zeru selected the second option.
Even without the system's prompt, he would have acted. It had been a while since the system last activated, and the rewards this time were incredibly generous.
"Grand Elder, have you forgotten our agreement?"
Zeru stepped forward, smiling slightly. Pointing at the warships in the sky, he said, "Just tell me which one you don't like, and I'll shoot it down immediately."
"This…"
The Grand Elder knew Zeru was powerful, but against an entire army… could he really handle it?
"Zeru, those are Frieza's forces! How could you possibly face them alone?!"
Nail spoke in a deep voice. His opinion of Zeru had improved—at least this Saiyan wasn't trying to flee at the first sign of danger.
"It's not a problem."
Zeru grinned. A golden glow suddenly flickered at his fingertip as he pointed toward the sky.
Whoosh!
In the next instant, the beam shot out at a speed invisible to the naked eye, striking one of the warships.
Boom!
Rumble!
The moment the energy struck, the warship exploded instantly before the stunned eyes of the Grand Elder and Nail.
"What a shame. If it were night, the fireworks would look even better."
Zeru muttered under his breath.
"…"
The Grand Elder and Nail were left speechless.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Without pause, Zeru raised both hands toward the sky. Golden light flared at the tips of all ten fingers.
Then—
Boom!
He unleashed ten Energy beams at once.
Rumble!
In an instant, every warship in the sky exploded.
"S-So terrifying!"
"Is someone attacking an entire army alone?! Since when did Namek have such a powerful warrior?!"
"My god… is this the power of a deity?!"
"Someone just summoned the dragon earlier… could it be the dragon's doing?!"
…
Throughout the village, Namekians looked up at the sky in shock and disbelief.
At first, they had been terrified by the arrival of Frieza's forces. But now, witnessing such overwhelming power, their blood boiled as they tried to guess who was behind it.
Meanwhile, inside the last remaining warship…
"Captain Ginyu! How can the Namekians be this strong?!"
Several members of the Ginyu Force stared at Ginyu, drenched in sweat, fear written all over their faces.
"We miscalculated…"
Ginyu frowned. "But remember, our strength lies not in individuals, but in teamwork—"
Boom!
Before he could finish, the entire warship shook violently from an impact.
"Not good!"
Ginyu suddenly shouted. Through the battle display, he saw a man outside firing an energy blast directly at their ship.
Boom!
The energy wave struck, instantly annihilating the warship.
"Notification!"
"Congratulations, Host, for completing the selected task. Rewards obtained: Hyperbolic Time Chamber with 10x time flow, 500x gravity chamber, Saiyan bloodline optimization serum, purification ability."
…
As the final warship was completely destroyed, the system's notification echoed once more in Zeru's mind.
