"A man came out of the shadows and stepped into the ruins.
The ground was littered with dead bodies and broken armor. He walked over to a still intact body and took the detector from the man's ear.
"This is a useful gadget," the man smiled. Behind him, the alien army advanced, wielding laser guns and Ki cannons.
"Lord Turles, we should retreat," a soldier shouted behind the man.
The man who appeared suddenly in the shadows was Turles. He nodded and approached the soldier. "You're right. The situation isn't favorable for us. Let's go first! I'll handle it."
"Thank you, Lord Turles!"
The soldiers were deeply moved. They couldn't withstand the Frieza Legion's siege. At this crucial moment, someone covered their retreat, saving their lives from the brink.
In no time, the soldiers of Slug fled to the headquarters.
Turles had a smirk and gathered a pink Ki ball in his hand, aiming it at the hurriedly fleeing Slug's soldiers, "Goodbye!" Two blasts later, the Ki bomb surged from behind the target. The enormous light ball expanded, engulfing everything in its path.
"Boom--"
The explosion resonated loudly, with fierce flames and black smoke rising into the sky.
The alien people in the air were bewildered. This guy helped them defeat the enemy, and they wore identical battle suits. They should be allies, but they saw him attacking them?
In doubt, Turles looked up at them.
Another pink light ball formed in the palm of his hand, emitting several rotating beams of light.
"Not good! Run!"
Their detectors registered the same astonishing power level, far beyond what they could handle! Their only option was to escape, running for their lives.
Turles unleashed a flurry of energy bombs, covering the Frieza Legion, the Slug Legion, and the Namekians. The attacks were indiscriminate, leaving many casualties in their wake.
Turles seemed to be enjoying himself, effortlessly ending the battle.
No one dared to challenge him. He smoothly entered the room where the Dragon Ball was kept, grabbed the four-star ball, and then left with a ring of energy, shattering the building.
"It's another four-star ball. Destiny must be at work," Turles laughed as he disappeared into the valley.
——————————
On Frieza's space ship.
A dog-headed alien lay dead on the floor, and Frieza looked pale with anger. The red wine glass in his hand shattered once again.
"Useless! They're all useless!"
"So many of them vanished in an instant, and even Turles couldn't be defeated!"
Frieza started to miss Dodoria and Zarbon, who were competent. Though their strengths might not be exceptional, they were reliable and understood his intentions.
Unlike this worthless worms who messed up even more when he was angry, making Frieza regret not killing him himself.
"Damn Turles, show him to me!"
"Apologies, Lord Frieza, but that violent reaction has disappeared once again." An alien man cautiously stepped forward among the others, sweating profusely, "We can't locate him... it's impossible..."
Though weak, Turles was still a Saiyan. His fighting talent was evident. After their initial encounter, he had learned how to suppress his power level and hide his presence. The detectors couldn't track him down easily.
Frieza's eyes tightened, and he beheaded the man.
"Useless... inform the team, give them half a day at most. If they can't catch Turles, they'll face the consequences!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Everyone responded, their backs drenched in sweat. Following the emperor of the universe was a privilege, but it was also a form of suffering, as it meant being constantly under the watchful eyes of a fierce king.
————————
On Slug's space ship.
Slug was fuming. He kept pounding the armrests, his eyes blazing with rage.
"Why did you let the Saiyan escape!"
"They're all out searching for the Dragon Balls!"
"He managed to escape, created a hole in my spaceship, but he didn't steal the Dragon Balls. What's he up to?" Slug wondered, looking at the three remaining Dragon Balls he had.
He now understood why Frieza arrived so quickly. Turles was likely responsible for that. Three days to reach Namek was deceptive, meant to make Slug lower his guard.
Slug felt uneasy, facing Frieza. He lacked the courage to confront Frieza directly. The odds of collecting all seven Dragon Balls had diminished significantly...
With these thoughts, his resentment toward Turles grew.
——————————
Meanwhile, Raditz and his group, on their way to meet the elders, sensed a powerful energy appearing and then suddenly vanishing. In the process, the subtle atmosphere of Nail Village disappeared.
As if in an instant, everyone was gone.
"Uncle Piccolo, that was Turles energy..."
"Yes," Piccolo confirmed.
"He finally made his move," Raditz had anticipated that Turles wouldn't stay idle. At this moment, it was reasonable for him to grab a Dragon Ball.
Turles had gone from being a wanderer with nothing to a participant in the battle for the Dragon Balls.
"Don't worry about him. The jester will show up sooner or later. Our priority is to meet the elder quickly."
Vegeta couldn't bear the wait any longer and questioned, "What's the purpose of meeting the elder anyway?"
After following Raditz for so long and flying for so far, taking great care not to be detected along the way, Vegeta hoped to find a significant reason for coming to the elders. Otherwise, he'd be furious.
"You'll find out when we get there. I won't disappoint you," Raditz said while keeping an eye on the surrounding atmosphere.
The former Namekian warriors observed Raditz curiously. They felt the alien knew everything and were amazed by him.
"Everyone, there are about three passages ahead. We can pick up the pace," the Namekians suggested.
They increased their speed, and several figures soared through the sky, flying toward the distant mountains. Meanwhile, Turles, having obtained the four-star Dragon Ball, laughed at his fortune as he continued his own quest.
Frieza was determined to capture him and the Dragon Balls, while Slug was determined to regain his youth using the Dragon Balls. The battle for the Dragon Balls intensified, and the fate of the universe hung in the balance.
