Soya's words plunged the entire palace hall into a deathly silence.
King Vegeta: "..."
The four ministers: "..."
Bardock: "..."
The few people present were speechless.
Only Raditz seemed to have expected this already and wasn't particularly surprised.
As for Broly, he was just busy drinking Sprite and wasn't very concerned with these matters.
Anyway, I'll just do whatever Soya tells me to do.
Following Soya means good Sprite and mineral water.
King Vegeta silently glanced at Soya, then turned to look at the ministers beside him, using his eyes to inquire about Soya's identity.
"Your Majesty, this is Soya. His battle power at birth was only 5, and his current battle power is 500," one minister quickly found Soya's information, bowed to King Vegeta, and provided a detailed introduction. "Not long ago, he followed Prince Vegeta's squad to the Planet of 10,000 Beasts. We just don't know when he returned."
"Soya, is it?" King Vegeta coldly looked at Soya.
"Yes, it's me." Soya nodded.
"Where is the Prince? Didn't he return with you?" King Vegeta asked.
"No, he's still out there." Soya answered truthfully.
"When did you return? And where is the Prince?" King Vegeta asked, puzzled.
"None of that is important... Didn't you say you were going to abdicate and give way to a worthy successor? Is it true or not?" Soya rubbed his hands together in anticipation. "You better not lie to me. I actually really like the idea of being the Saiyan King."
King Vegeta: "..."
King Vegeta's face instantly darkened.
Even if I were to abdicate and give way to a worthy successor, I would never give it to a low-class warrior with a battle power of only 500.
If this got out, how could I ever show my face again?
"Look, even Bardock isn't objecting. Let's just decide this happily." Soya chuckled gleefully.
Bardock: "..."
Who said I'm not objecting?
Why do I get the feeling your purpose for becoming the Saiyan King isn't pure?
I have a feeling you're plotting something bad.
"Bardock, you don't object, right?" Soya asked Bardock.
Bardock raised an eyebrow, momentarily hesitant.
This kid... bringing me here was actually to rebel...
I really don't know what to say.
Didn't we agree to deal with Frieza?
"Dad, agree with him." Raditz immediately lowered his voice and whispered, "Don't be fooled by the battle power number on the scouter. Soya's real battle power is much, much, much, much higher than that... well, this 'much' is an infinite loop."
Bardock: "..."
Bardock was slightly taken aback.
However, after looking at Broly, Bardock seemed to suddenly realize something.
Someone who can subdue a child with such high battle power... it's obviously unlikely that his own battle power is only 500.
"I do not object." Bardock answered decisively.
"Since that's the case, hurry up and hold the ceremony!" Soya grinned, his expression growing increasingly excited.
King Vegeta's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Did I ever say I would give the throne to you?
"Negative emotional value from King Vegeta +999!"
"Negative emotional value from..."
The four ministers also continuously provided negative emotional value to Soya.
You have some nerve!
What qualifications do you have to become the new Saiyan King?
"It's just a throne, why all the hesitation?" Soya became somewhat displeased, letting out a long sigh. "Since that's the case, I'll just lay my cards on the table. No more pretending!"
Everyone present was slightly stunned.
What do you mean you'll lay your cards on the table and stop pretending?
What exactly are you trying to do?
"Use your scouters and take a good look! Look at my battle power number!" Soya chuckled, his energy bursting forth bit by bit.
"Beep! Battle power!"
"10,000!"
"50,000!"
"Boom!"
The scouters worn by Bardock and the four ministers exploded on the spot.
Only King Vegeta's scouter remained intact.
King Vegeta was first stunned, then looked at Bardock and the four ministers in astonishment.
The battle power is off the charts!
This kid's battle power is that high?
"100,000! It's still rising!"
"150,000!"
"200,000!"
"What joke is this? 100,000!" King Vegeta's eyes widened, his complexion changing repeatedly.
"Boom!"
The next moment, King Vegeta's scouter instantly exploded, turning into a wisp of smoke.
Everyone on the scene stared dumbfoundedly at Soya, their jaws nearly hitting the floor.
Even Raditz was a bit slow to react, never expecting Soya's battle power had already reached such heights.
Raditz only knew Soya's battle power was high, possibly even surpassing Prince Vegeta.
But Raditz never imagined Soya's battle power had reached the level of 100,000.
Wait... did you drink Battle God Water on the way here?
Just how many times has your battle power multiplied?
"Tsk tsk... your scouters are no good." Soya shook his head and sighed. "They max out at just 100,000. My real battle power isn't just this little."
"You... what did you say? Your real battle power isn't just 100,000?" King Vegeta was shocked.
"My real battle power is this much." Soya revealed a mouthful of white teeth, slowly extending two fingers.
"What? 200,000!" King Vegeta blurted out.
The four ministers' corners of their mouths twitched violently.
Bardock looked astonished, his expression changing repeatedly.
Raditz was also stunned.
Only Broly continued to hold his Sprite bottle, drinking nonstop.
"You... you... you, you, you... when did you raise your battle power to this level?" King Vegeta stammered.
"Just during this period." Soya chuckled, then waved his hand. "No, I haven't finished speaking yet. Don't interrupt."
King Vegeta: "..."
"Negative emotional value from King Vegeta +666!"
So when your battle power is high, even your tone of speech changes.
"You were wrong earlier. My battle power isn't 200,000." Soya smiled, wiggling one finger.
"Not 200,000? Then how much is it?" Bardock raised an eyebrow and asked curiously.
"Guess! Be bold, guess high!" Soya grinned cheekily.
"Could it be 2 million..." King Vegeta was even more shocked, his face changing repeatedly.
"No." Soya shook his head. "Keep guessing boldly!"
"20 million!" Raditz quickly shouted the answer.
"Correct! I give you a thumbs up!" Soya gave Raditz a thumbs up.
Raditz: "..."
Raditz rolled his eyes, took two steps backward, and nearly fainted.
20 million battle power?
Be reasonable!
Is your battle power trying to defy the heavens?
Can you not be so absurd?
"Bat... battle power... battle power 20 million!" King Vegeta's lips trembled incessantly, his face turning pale.
Bardock's eye twitched violently, feeling immensely shocked.
The four ministers were completely terrified, instinctively huddling together.
Only Broly still held his Sprite bottle, drinking continuously, having no concept of what Soya's battle power number meant.
After drinking Sprite for a while, Broly even looked up curiously at Soya and everyone present.
Broly was a bit puzzled.
Why does everyone except Soya look so shocked?
