At the center of the battlefield, two figures were in disarray.
Son Goku's orange gi was tattered, and he was gasping for air.
"Damn it... This guy is too strong!"
Beside Goku, Piccolo was also in a miserable state, one arm hanging limply, green blood dripping from his fingertips.
Piccolo's proud Special Beam Cannon, which gathered all his energy and spirit, was easily dodged by the opponent, only grazing a shoulder pad.
This was a despair-inducing gap.
Standing opposite them was Raditz, the Saiyan who claimed to be Son Goku's brother.
Raditz crossed his arms, his long hair dancing wildly in the fierce wind, a cruel, cat-playing-with-mouse smile on his face.
"It's over, Kakarot."
Raditz's tone was filled with condescending disdain.
"You trash, you don't even recognize your own brother. And you, Namekian, your attack was somewhat interesting, but unfortunately, too slow."
Suddenly, Raditz seemed to sense something, and his gaze shifted to the crashed spaceship not far away.
"Oh? There's a brat's power level rapidly increasing... 1307?!"
The playful look on Raditz's face slightly receded, replaced by a hint of surprise.
"Boom!"
The spaceship's hatch exploded, and a child wearing a small yellow outfit and a four-star ball hat rushed out, tears on his face, but with flames of anger burning in his eyes.
"Don't... Don't you bully my dad!"
Gohan erupted.
But this power, in Raditz's eyes, was still not enough. Soon, Gohan was slapped away by Raditz, crashing heavily against a rock, falling unconscious.
"Hmph, a somewhat potential mongrel."
Raditz's patience had run out. He slowly raised his hand, a purple energy orb condensing at his fingertip, aimed at the now helpless Son Goku.
"Farewell, my foolish brother."
Just at this critical moment.
A voice, without any warning, rang out in the center of the battlefield.
"Hey."
"You guys are too loud fighting."
"You're disturbing my sunbath."
The moment the words fell, a figure silently appeared between Raditz and Son Goku.
The newcomer wore simple casual clothes, his black hair was somewhat messy, and he was very handsome.
A fluffy tail was idly swaying gently behind him.
"You... Who are you?!"
Raditz's expression changed slightly, and the triumphant smile on his face froze.
He instinctively pressed the power level scouter on his ear.
"Beep beep beep beep—!!!"
The alarm blared madly, and the numbers on it surged wildly like an out-of-control wild horse, instantly breaking through the limit he could comprehend!
Five thousand!
Ten thousand!
Eighteen thousand!
"Bleep—CRACK!"
Under Raditz's horrified gaze, the screen of the precise scouter flickered a few times, then instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks on its lens, and then with a "bang," it completely exploded!
Sparks and fragments splattered on Raditz's face, bringing a slight stinging sensation.
The scouter... exploded?!
How is that possible?!
The upper limit of this scouter was 20,000 power level. Could it be that this guy's power level exceeds 20,000?
What a joke, Prince Vegeta's power level is only 18,000!
This guy in front of him... What kind of monster is he?!
"You bastard..."
Raditz forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart, roaring with feigned bravery, "You're also a Saiyan?! Why are you here?! Your power level, it actually made my scouter..."
"How is that possible!"
"It must be that the scouter is broken!"
Raditz's voice grew softer and softer.
"You can call me Luo Feng!"
Luo Feng let out a long yawn, looking at Raditz and saying.
"You're disturbing me."
"Do you know how difficult it is to find a mountain where the sun is just right, the breeze is gentle, and no one disturbs you, to peacefully take a nap?"
Raditz was stunned.
Son Goku and Piccolo were also stunned.
They had anticipated countless possibilities, but they had never thought that the reason for this mysterious strong man's appearance was... his nap being disturbed?
"What... What nonsense are you spouting?!"
Raditz felt his dignity being trampled upon like never before.
He was a noble Saiyan warrior, here to conquer Earth! This guy in front of him, actually came to provoke him for such a ridiculous reason as "sleeping"?
An uncontrollable surge of anger dispersed his fear, and Raditz abruptly turned the energy orb in his hand, which was originally aimed at Goku, towards Luo Feng.
"Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish! Disappear, you bastard!"
However, facing this energy attack capable of easily destroying a city, Luo Feng didn't even bother to lift an eyelid.
He merely extended a single finger.
Then, he gently pointed it at the rapidly approaching purple energy orb.
"Puff."
A barely audible soft sound.
The energy orb, condensed with Raditz's full power and exuding a destructive aura, vanished silently the moment it touched Luo Feng's fingertip, like a balloon being pricked.
It just, disappeared into thin air.
"..."
The expression on Raditz's face completely froze, turning into pure, incomprehensible fear.
Run!
Must run!
Raditz no longer cared about Saiyan honor or the mission to conquer Earth. He turned to transform into a streak of light, intending to flee this suffocating place.
However, he was fast, but Luo Feng was faster than him.
"The score isn't settled yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Raditz only felt a blur before his eyes; Luo Feng's figure had appeared in front of him at some unknown point.
"You... Who exactly..."
Raditz's voice trembled with extreme fear, he could even hear his teeth chattering.
"Sigh, so troublesome..."
Luo Feng sighed again.
He slowly raised his right hand, and an energy orb condensed.
There was no Earth-shattering aura explosion, no dazzling light effects.
It was just an ordinary, fist-sized ball of light.
The next second.
The light orb gently landed on Raditz's chest.
"Bang."
Raditz's body was instantly pierced through, falling from mid-air, completely motionless!
Instantly.
The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
Son Goku's mouth hung open, staring blankly at everything that had just happened, his brain completely unable to process the information he had just received.
Piccolo's usually stern green face was also filled with unconcealable shock.
Raditz...
That powerful enemy who had pushed them to the brink, leaving them utterly helpless...
The Saiyan warrior with a power level of 1500...
Just like that... died?
Luo Feng frowned slightly, complaining in a low voice.
"Seriously, he's not even tough enough to take a hit."
"With this kind of strength, he dares to invade Earth!"
Having said that, Luo Feng turned around and glanced at Son Goku and Piccolo, who were still in a petrified state.
Luo Feng thought for a moment and decided to add one more sentence, lest more trouble come knocking in the future.
"Don't celebrate too soon."
"Guys more troublesome than Raditz will arrive on Earth in a year."
"Train hard! Otherwise, next time, no one will clean up your mess."
As his words fell.
Before Son Goku and Piccolo could react, Luo Feng transformed into a streak of light and shot into the sky.
After a long while.
"Gulp."
Son Goku swallowed with difficulty, turned to look at Piccolo, and asked in a dry voice:
"Piccolo... that Luo Feng just now... did you see him?"
Piccolo did not answer, only stared intently in the direction where Luo Feng had disappeared, the shock in his eyes still not fading.
