In the communicator, Frost repeatedly stated that he would vigorously fight against the evil forces in the universe. Cabba kept thanking him, which made Frost want to laugh again, and finally hung up the communication with a smile.
At the moment when the signal was interrupted, Frost couldn't help it anymore, shook his head and laughed out loud: "What a stupid Saiyan—believes everything! Hahahaha..."
"That's right, Lord Frost has them all fooled!" The burly alien sitting next to him smiled obsequiously.
He was the leader of space pirates, the famous villain who had invaded many planets and been defeated many times—Mero. The most recent failure was when he fought against the former captain of the Sadala Defense Team, Renso. Mero had lost his three generals and ended up retreating to his stronghold. That time was also a victory from cooperation between Frost and the Sadala Defense Team.
But Mero had come back to do evil again, still with a huge pirate army.
At this moment, the two were sitting in the main ship of the space pirates, chatting and laughing happily, regarding the deception of Cabba as an amusing game. After drinking the purple wine in his cup, Mero shouted boldly: "Thank you Lord Frost for your help—this time I must avenge the last defeat!"
"Last time?" Frost narrowed his eyes, and his sharp gaze was reflected in the wine glass. "Last time it was your fault for being too slow and getting caught by the Sadala Defense Team. I tried my best to cover for you, but it was useless. Almost got me exposed."
Mero rubbed his hands, and such a big man actually showed a sheepish look. "Hey, wasn't it all because Renso pursued us so relentlessly?"
"Hmph, fortunately, the planetary transaction made a lot of money in the end, which can be regarded as making up for your loss. This time, Kylia is a tough target, so don't bite off more than you can chew." Frost's eyes held a faint chill that seemed to be warning Mero.
"Don't worry, Master Frost, I know my limits. Not only do I want to take down Kylia, but I also want to kill Cabba while I'm at it, so he won't get in the way. Without Renso and Cabba, the Sadala Defense Team will need a long time to recover their strength. Ahahaha..."
Mero had asked Frost to sound out Cabba's position just to know when Cabba's spaceship would arrive, so he could make plans early. In the last failure, Renso and Cabba had hit him the hardest—no matter what, Mero couldn't swallow this humiliation!
But Frost glanced at him lightly, held up his wine glass and swirled it, smiling slightly: "I have a good personal relationship with Cabba."
Mero quietly rolled his eyes. Come on, the last person who had a good personal relationship with you was Renso, right? Now, with a poisoned needle in his leg and a persistent condition, could he still fight?
But he didn't dare to say such things in front of Frost—after all, his strength was there. Mero was unfortunate enough to have seen Frost's second-form transformation. At that time, he was truly terrified and almost fainted from fright.
Apart from Frost himself, the person who knew Frost's viciousness best was Mero.
He raised his hand and toasted Frost: "I understand. This matter has nothing to do with you—you are a peace ambassador... Anyway, just leave it to me."
"Cabba alone is fine. Don't kill them all. The Sadala Defense Team has to be preserved. They can solve a lot of troubles for me. They're more useful than my own people." Frost's scarlet eyes narrowed, and an abyss-like smile opened at the corner of his mouth.
Mero trembled. He knew that he was dealing with the devil, but whenever he saw Frost's smile, he still couldn't help feeling afraid, as if that gaping abyss was about to swallow him at any time.
"I understand. After improving my combat power, I can deal with Cabba. Even if I face Renso, I'm not afraid!"
Frost looked at Mero with a trace of contempt in his eyes. This guy had certain strength, but he was too arrogant and always thought of enemies too simply. If it weren't for the fact that Mero had the greatest influence among the space pirates, he wouldn't have found such a person to cooperate with.
Hearing Mero shout out his lofty ambitions, Frost switched to a gentlemanly smile: "Then the military expenses should also be settled with me? You know, I have provided a lot of support in terms of troops and weapons."
"Huh?" Mero was taken aback.
He thought it was true that this comeback was an opportunity provided by Frost, but it was only information about Planet Kylia and a few space soldiers. Where did the weapons come from?! The weapons were all prepared by himself!
"Don't remember? It's the patrol warship I lent you. I spent a lot of effort, so I'll charge you thirty percent of the transaction amount. After all, we are old friends." Frost reminded him.
Patrol ships? Wasn't it just an old model spaceship? Was this worth thirty percent of Kylia's value? Just kidding—this was highway robbery! Mero looked at Frost with grievance, not daring to show anything on his face, though he had already cursed him hundreds of times in his heart.
Frost didn't care about Mero's attitude, stood up from the main seat, and walked to the porthole: "Then I will take my leave first."
"Go ahead, Lord Frost."
Mero held back his voice and went forward to see him off, his hands trembling slightly.
...
In space, the spaceship of the Sadala Defense Force rushed toward Planet Kylia at full speed, and nearly two days had passed quietly.
In the training room, Raditz and Ramso were still training earnestly. The two of them fired ki blasts respectively, either facing each other or moving at high speed to dodge, or enduring attacks to exercise their body's strength. Raditz subtly taught the boy the skill of precisely controlling ki and guided him to improve his combat power a little.
The sound of vigorous training gradually faded away, and the boy landed panting. Raditz only breathed lightly and relaxed.
"Raditz, why do I feel that you are better than me? After several training sessions, you're very relaxed, but I'm exhausted. Also, you always reveal some techniques inadvertently, each of which is very useful. Several times I even sensed your aura suddenly increase—are you hiding your strength?"
Ramso, who seemed carefree, was very observant and had even noticed what Raditz had secretly taught him. He stared at Raditz, sparkling light in his bright eyes.
Raditz nodded and shrugged. "I saw you were so energetic, saying you were better than me and wanting to teach me ki techniques, so I cooperated with you."
Ramso's face flushed immediately, a little ashamed.
"So, you really did hide your strength, and even Captain Cabba didn't notice it." Ramso looked at Raditz again. "How strong are you? Wait, just between us... no, between you and Captain Cabba?"
"Hmm..." Raditz thought for a while. "Humbly speaking, all of you combined might not be enough for me."
