Planet Nutts.
The Galactic Patrol guards were overseeing the prisoners as they worked on the reconstruction of the Galactic Prison Branch.
A month ago, the Galactic Prison Branch here had been attacked by an external force. Not only was most of it destroyed, but a large number of prisoners also took the opportunity to escape.
If the nearby Galactic Patrolman hadn't immediately responded with full force to round them up, the losses would have been even more disastrous, and those who escaped would have become an even greater menace.
Now, the galactic prisoners currently carrying out the repair work were those who had escaped and been recaptured. Each one of them was a notorious space pirate.
As the saying goes, "For the crime you commit, you must do the corresponding hard labor."
Those who didn't attempt to escape were naturally granted some sentence reductions, reflecting the Galactic Patrol's commitment to upholding cosmic justice. If you truly repent and reform, you'll be released once your sentence is up.
This was also a form of appeasement policy, meant to show all prisoners that escaping is not a wise choice, and even if you do, you'll just be caught again.
Better to genuinely repent and reform.
…
At this moment, on a cliff behind the Galactic Prison Branch.
Jaco and Tights were standing there, looking down from above at the utterly wrecked Galactic Prison.
"To fully repair this place will almost certainly take a few months. I really didn't expect it to be attacked, and damaged to this extent… That Saiyan's strength is not to be underestimated," Jaco said.
"But… is the information really reliable? Are you sure it was a Saiyan?" Tights asked, thinking aloud with a hint of hesitation.
In recent years, the youthful innocence of Tights had completely faded, and she now radiated a mature charm, like a fully ripened red apple.
"In any case, let's wait for Talot and the others to arrive before making any judgments. Who knows if their Instant Transmission can even bring them here? This place is incredibly far from Earth," Jaco replied.
"I've experienced it before. It shouldn't be a problem," Tights said.
The incident happened a month ago, but they had only arrived at Planet Nutts a few days prior after receiving the news. Once they had thoroughly investigated the situation and gathered all the intel, they contacted Talot and the others on Earth through a communicator.
After all, no matter how you look at it, this incident had been caused by one of their own—by a Saiyan.
Since it was an unknown Saiyan who started this trouble, it should be resolved by Saiyans themselves.
As for Jaco, naturally, he was just assisting in the matter.
Time gradually passed by.
Before long—
Whoosh~~!! A sharp sound pierced through the air.
Talot, Salari, Raditz, and Bulma appeared out of thin air.
"Talot, Bulma, and Salari, Raditz, you really did manage to teleport," Tights looked eagerly at the four people in front of her, and her emotions burst forth all at once.
After not seeing them for several years, it was impossible not to have missed them.
If not for the need to finish her novel"Chako the Space Policeman", she honestly would've wanted to return to Earth for a good rest.
"Sister." Seeing Tights again, Bulma also lost control of her emotions.
After all, they were sisters by blood; naturally different from outsiders.
The two sisters embraced. While lovingly caressing her younger sister's hair, Tights said, "You've really grown up, Bulma. And from what you said last time… you two are together now?"
Tights's tone was full of doting affection. After speaking, she looked toward Talot.
It was him….he was the one who had taken her one and only sister.
Tights was filled with conflicting emotions, thinking back to the experiences they'd shared a few years ago.
Talot was truly charming. Even she had nearly fallen for him. Now, he was even more dashing and spirited, seemingly without a single flaw.
She had once thought, if she were a few years younger, maybe she would've been just like her sister, unable to choose anyone but this man.
"If I ever find out you bullied my sister, I won't let you off." The protective words sounded stern, like a warning, but in truth they were simply telling Talot: don't let her sister suffer.
Obviously, Talot and the others were powerful, while her sister was just an ordinary person. That was exactly why, back when she had feelings for Talot, she also felt a sense of resistance toward him, because they simply weren't from the same world.
And in the end, things had turned out like this.
"Don't worry. You should know what kind of person I am, I haven't changed," Talot said with a smile.
Tights nodded, then looked at Salari and Raditz. "You two have changed so much over these past couple of years, not only have you both gotten much taller, you've completely lost that childish look from a few years ago. If I'm not wrong, you're only 19, right?"
"We Saiyans have a relatively long childhood. Though it varies from person to person, we truly start growing rapidly after the age of 15. After these years apart, seeing each other again now, it's only natural you'd find it surprising," Raditz said.
"But even though we've changed a lot, Sister Tights, you've also changed quite a bit. You're even more beautiful than before," Salari chimed in, returning the compliment.
The group laughed and chatted together, and after they wrapped up the small talk, it was Talot who eventually spoke up first.
"It's time to talk. You didn't call us here just because this place was damaged and some prisoners escaped, and you need our help to catch them, right?" Talot asked.
Upon hearing this, Tights didn't answer, but turned to look at Jaco.
Since the beginning, he'd only greeted them and hadn't spoken a word.
If he stayed silent any longer, he'd just be making things awkward for himself.
"Let me explain the entire situation in detail, since things weren't made entirely clear before.
"The incident happened a little over a month ago. The Galactic Prison Branch on Planet Nutts was attacked. From here, if you look down, you can probably see just how serious the destruction is. Because of the damage, countless galactic prisoners took the chance to escape. Although the Galactic Patrol has been helping recapture them over the past month and has already caught the vast majority, there are still some who slipped through the cracks.
"One of those is the group of space pirates led by Amond, who you helped apprehend before. And in the end, based on reliable intelligence, the person who organized the attack on the Galactic Prison Branch… was an unknown Saiyan."
After finishing, Jaco looked seriously at Talot.
"So that's the real reason we were called, the person who attacked the Galactic Prison Branch is an unknown Saiyan?" Talot's expression didn't change much, but his mind was already working rapidly.
He had considered some possibilities before coming here, so he wasn't surprised at all now.
"There are other Saiyans besides us?" Salari asked in shock.
