At the time, they had no means of reaching Planet Cereal quickly, which was why Levos had temporarily shelved that plan.
Even later, when Kibito was helping him teleport back and forth from Earth, Levos had considered heading to Cereal in search of the Dragon Balls. Unfortunately, Kibito had made it clear that due to his spiritual limitations, he could only perform one round-trip between Earth and the Sacred World of the Kais in a short period.
In hindsight, it was a shame that Kibito and Dende couldn't "glitch the system" and make it work…
But now, since Cooler clearly knew about Planet Cereal, Levos couldn't help but press for more information.
He said calmly, "From what I know, the Dragon Balls on Cereal only consist of two spheres. They're incredibly easy to gather."
Cooler cast a surprised glance at Levos, not expecting him to be familiar with the Cereal Dragon Balls.
"Ohohoho…" Frieza's laugh was laced with venom. "So my dear brother, who dreams of becoming the strongest in the universe, didn't bother to keep such a treasure for himself?"
Cooler's eyes narrowed, flashing with cold light, and he shot Levos a dark glance.
Then he explained, "Those two Dragon Balls have already been seized by an organization called the Heeters. Their leader is named Elec. If you want to make a wish, you have to strike a costly deal with him."
He paused for a moment, then added, "And for the record, Frieza, the Heeters used to work for your army."
"They've long broken away now, forming their own massive power base using the Dragon Balls…"
Cooler didn't shy away from the details, giving Levos a rough overview of the Heeters' current operations.
"In other words, although those Dragon Balls come with severe side effects, Elec's group has figured out how to bypass them and is now selling wish-based services across the universe?" Frieza's expression darkened.
Levos was also speechless at this revelation.
Dragon Balls with no cooldown were already a nightmare. But now the Heeters had exploited a loophole to negate the drawbacks? This timeline really didn't pull any punches.
Cooler sneered. "That's why I said you're too naive, Frieza."
Frieza narrowed his eyes, then smiled with cruelty. "For worms like the Heeters to rise up… I'll make sure to erase Elec when the time comes."
He turned toward Levos. "Mr. Levos, you know, I've never actually trusted you."
Levos responded coolly, "I know. From the moment you saw Bulma, you were testing our relationship. I imagine you planned to use her as leverage from the start."
"Ohohohoho…" Frieza's eyes narrowed with amusement. "You're very sharp. I do wish I had a subordinate like you. Unfortunately, I know that's never going to happen."
Cooler looked at Frieza, his expression complicated. "Frieza… You really are a natural-born ruler."
Frieza chuckled. "The title 'Emperor of Evil' isn't just for show. I'm simply good at reading people. My rule has never relied solely on brute force…"
Levos couldn't help but think: truly worthy of being called the Emperor. Frieza's intellect was always top-tier.
Well, except when it came to Saiyans.
Perhaps the trauma of the Saiyans rebelling, Vegeta's betrayal, and being defeated by Goku had left him with PTSD.
Cooler nodded. "That's why Father gave you command over the entire Cold Force."
As the brothers talked, Levos felt a strange sense of harmony between them. Frieza really was the spoiled prince of the family.
The Frieza from the main timeline had it far worse driven into ruin by those damned Saiyan monkeys…
Of course, this was assuming you overlooked how ruthless, treacherous, and downright evil the entire Cold family was.
For now, Levos wasn't in a rush to strike. He was confident he could defeat both Cooler and Frieza, so he preferred to extract more intel from Cooler first.
This guy had dominated Universe 7 for years and had countless mechanical clones. There was no doubt he possessed valuable knowledge.
But just then, Frieza turned to him and said, "Mr. Levos, we may have been enemies, but among the people I despise… you don't even rank."
Levos immediately understood what was coming.
Frieza's most hated enemy without question was the Saiyan race.
Sure enough, Frieza's next words confirmed it.
"I'll never forget what those three Dark Beings did to me!" Frieza growled, his teeth clenched, face twisted in rage.
Suddenly, a sinister voice echoed from the void.
"Heh… and here I was, hoping to enjoy the sight of you tearing each other apart."
Two figures stepped out from the air itself.
Levos' expression darkened.
It was Goku Black (in Vegito form) and Fused Zamasu.
The two had joined forces and Goku Black now sported waist-length hair!
Levos's heart rang with alarm.
This was a new form.
It resembled Super Saiyan 3, but with retained eyebrows possibly a god-tier evolution that compensated for the drawbacks of SSJ3.
"Don't look so surprised," Goku Black Vegito smirked from above. "I just recently perfected this form. I've dubbed it 'Full Power Rosé.'"
The moment he spoke, both Levos and Cooler moved simultaneously.
Without coordination, they charged straight at Goku Black!
But he just smirked and casually blocked both of their punches with his hands.
Then, with a savage kick, he sent Cooler flying.
Levos suffered the same fate a moment later.
"How dare mere mortals challenge a god?" Goku Black sneered arrogantly.
And with that, he launched himself at Levos.
Cooler became a streak of golden light, racing to aid him.
Boom!
Both Levos and Cooler groaned, staggering backward from the clash.
Elsewhere, the remaining mechanical Coolers and Frieza ganged up on Fused Zamasu.
But Zamasu's power had grown tremendously. He alone held his own against five opponents.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A string of explosions echoed, shockwaves rippling through the battlefield.
Zamasu's abilities were strange and overwhelming. His mastery of spatial rifts and energy scythes had become dangerously refined.
Even Frieza was visibly stunned.
He hadn't expected Fused Zamasu once a mid-tier threat to have powered up this much.
A single Golden Cooler had once been enough to suppress Zamasu.
But now, not even four mechanical Cooler clones could keep up.
And on top of that, Zamasu still possessed immortality.
Frieza could already see where this was going.
Defeat was inevitable.
Yet his pride wouldn't let him retreat, surrender, or beg.
"GIAO!!"
With a bloodcurdling roar, Frieza's body swelled in size, muscles bulging and aura blazing like fire.
His eyes burned crimson, animalistic and feral.
He threw a savage punch at Zamasu.
The god merely scoffed. His right arm expanded grotesquely, shredding his clothing, transforming into a massive purple fist to meet the blow.
Boom!
A deafening shockwave tore across the battlefield as both combatants were blasted backward.
But in that moment, behind Zamasu…
A silver-white tail quietly split open.
