For the first time, Piccolo saw his own kind other than Kami, and the namekians who looked like him fell to the ground, screaming in pain. The fierce scene made him angry, and he faintly clenched his fist.
Looking towards a disdainful Slug, Piccolo reached out and took off his turban and cloak, took a deep breath, and exhaled. The prelude to the battle had already sounded.
"Why, want to fight with me?" Slag sneered disdainfully. Although he was old, he believed it was not a problem to deal with several Saiyans and 1 namekian.
"Is it?!" Piccolo's expression turned cold, and he burst into arrogance, rushing towards Slug.
"Piccolo, be careful!" Raditz shouted, but he was a step too late.
Slug lifted his leg and greeted Piccolo, who kicked him. Slug's speed surpassed Piccolo's, and he was almost too fast to see clearly. The old body erupted with amazing power and kicked Piccolo high into the sky.
Piccolo, enduring the pain from his leg, managed to stop in the air. His face was distorted, feeling like his body was being torn apart.
Slug laughed cruelly, "Oh, we both may be Namekians, but my strength is far greater than yours!"
He swept his gaze across the remaining three Saiyan warriors, showing a disdainful look. Slug had some knowledge about the Saiyans, considering them just a group of elites among the universe warriors.
Although the information given by Turles exaggerated the power of these Saiyan people, Slug felt it was just a bluff. He didn't take their strength seriously, even when he heard about their exploits like killing Zarbon.
To him, the difference between 20,000 and 50,000 or 100,000 combat strength didn't matter.
Vegeta was stung by Slug's gaze, and he screamed as he rushed towards Slug. He moved like a meteor, kicking up layers of dirt.
"Old guy, die!"
"Old guy!?" Slug was furious and quickly ran towards Vegeta.
As their energies collided, Slug's figure suddenly disappeared, and Vegeta sensed danger. He instinctively stooped down to avoid the blade that slashed from above. The cold light of the blade missed him by a hair's breadth, and Vegeta felt a chill sweep over him.
Slug's palm passed over the top of Vegeta's head, and he thought he could easily tear open Vegeta's body, but the Saiyan warrior managed to evade the attack. Slug became cautious and raised his opinion of the Saiyans.
Just then, Raditz sent an energy wave from behind, but Slug easily kicked it away. Goku, also rushed towards Slag.
On the ground, surviving Namekian warriors were shouting and fighting back against Slug's troops. Raditz offered some assistance and dealt with most of Slug's forces. The remaining Namekian warriors were no match for them.
Goku's full strength was more than 180,000. With the help of Vegeta, he could hold his own against Slug. Their battle was intense, with neither side gaining the upper hand. Goku threw a punch, and Slug blocked it with crossed arms, but he was still forced back.
Slug was astonished by the Saiyans strength. He bit his teeth and stopped his retreat, counterattacking Goku with his head as a weapon. The two exchanged heavy blows, refusing to give in. They each unleashed their Ki and continued their fierce confrontation.
Gradually, Slug began to tire. He was old and his physical strength couldn't match that of the young warriors. Sweat covered his forehead, and he was exhausted, having consumed more energy than Goku.
Vegeta was not to be underestimated. Although his power didn't match that of Goku in the state of Kaioken, his Ki blast blocked Slug's escape route, putting him in a desperate situation.
"Huff...huff..." Slag felt the effects of aging. If he were younger, he would have feared this level of fight, but now he was old and his strength was declining, with some limitations.
Raditz, observing the battle, refrained from intervening too much. He didn't want Slug to transform and become even more formidable. They could handle Slug in his normal state, but dealing with an enlarged Slug would be difficult. Besides, he didn't want to defeat Slug completely, as the real threat was Frieza, who was close by. Using Slug to distract Frieza was the best strategy.
His main concern was Frieza, as this villain was cunning and more dangerous than Slug.
The fierce battle raged on, while on the other side of the mountain, inside a quiet room...
The elder's bloated body rested on a huge stone chair. His hands weakly gripped the armrests, his eyes half-closed, and his face covered with age spots. His voice was weak, and even breathing was difficult, as if he was an empty shell.
Nail stood respectfully in front of the elder and spoke slowly, "Elder, the evil forces are relentlessly attacking our people. Three villages have been devastated, and they will soon catch up with us."
"Oh... I can't move anymore. Nail, you are the most powerful warrior among us. Go to battle, don't stay with me."
"But if they find you here..."
"It doesn't matter. These invaders are after the Dragon Balls. If I die, the Dragon Balls will lose their effectiveness. Don't worry."
"Great elder!" Nail looked at the elder, who was on the verge of death, with concern and sadness.
Was the planet Namek truly doomed, to be destroyed?
