Chapter 8 - Chapter 8:Thread of empire, path of spirit

Cold Dynasty Space —

Frieza's Design

Frieza did not rage.

That was Cooler's flaw.

Frieza smiled.

The news of Skystrder's execution reached him through black channels, whispers from mercenaries, data anomalies, and one terrified scout who had felt Broko's presence from several star systems away and never recovered his composure.

A Saiyan.

Not just alive.

Evolving.

Frieza tapped one claw against his throne.

"So," he purred, "Father sends executioners, Brother sends hunters… and neither understands the problem."

King Cold watched silently from the shadows, amused but wary.

Cooler's faction had grown arrogant. His elites loyal. His authority stable.

Which made it ripe for undermining.

Frieza's Manipulation Begins

Frieza did not confront Cooler yet.

He redirected him.

False intelligence was leakedcarefully crafted reports implying Broko had fled into uncharted demon-space, a region hostile even to Cooler's best ships.

Data showed falsified energy signatures that mimicked Broko's adaptive ki pattern.

Cooler took the bait.

This had the desired effect.

He redeployed resources.

Pulled fleets.

Overextended.

Meanwhile, Frieza whispered to the empire's middle strata commanders, scientists, intelligence officers who feared Cooler's rigidity.

"If my brother fails," Frieza said sweetly, "someone must be prepared."

The Broko Containment Division

Frieza authorized the creation of a special division off the books, loyal only to him.

Designation:

Apex Suppression and Retrieval Corps (ASRC)

Purpose:

Capture Broko alive

Study Saiyan adaptive evolution

Develop counters to Zenkai-based growth

Undermine Cooler's credibility

Composition:

Bio-engineered suppression troopers

Psychic inhibitors adapted from stolen Yardrat intelligence

Elite combatants averaging 15–25 million power level.

One experimental commander grown from Frieza's own genetic material (unfinished)

Frieza leaned forward, eyes gleaming.

"My brother wants to kill the problem," he said.

"I want to own it."

King Cold said nothing.

But for the first time

He watched Frieza carefully.

.....

POV Shift

Broko Returns

Broko's stolen ship slid into realspace without fanfare.

He had escaped Cooler.

He had shaken worlds.

But now

He prepared to refine.

He reviewed his power calmly.

Broko Status (Return to alternate Dbz Verse):

Base (Compressed Ōzaru): ~8.2 million

Combat Peak (Short Bursts): ~10.5 million

Control: High, but inefficient under prolonged combat

Not enough.

He remembered something crucial.

Yardrat.

Why Yardrat

Broko knew the truth most Saiyans never learned:

Raw power without spirit control was waste.

Yardrat was not about strength.

It was about precision.

And precision multiplied power far more efficiently than just brute force by itself .

He set course and quickly went to yardrat, the pod stolen from Cooler's ship was as hell," I'll be at yardrat within a few days to a week max. " said Broko

.....

4 days late

Arrival on Yardrat

The planet was quiet.

Orange skies. Soft gravity. Low hostility.

Yardrati sensed him instantly not as an enemy, but as a storm barely contained.

They did not panic.

That alone impressed Broko.

He landed openly.

Even though this was an alternative reality,

Yardrat Culture was similar.

Yardrati were not warriors by tradition.

They were spirit engineers, manipulaters of the spirit itself .

Their society revolved around mastery of Spirit Control the ability to divide, amplify, suppress, and refine ki at will.

Key principles taught from childhood:

Division of Spirit – Separating ki into precise units

Reassembly – Reconstructing energy with minimal loss

Internalization – Strengthening organs, mind, and perception

Spatial Resonance – Aligning spirit with space itself

Power level almost meant little to them, to an extent .

Control meant everything.

Training Under the Grand Elders was my intention here, I was being led to meet him right now,

Few minutes later

The Grand Elder of Yardrat did not immediately refuse Broko.

He studied him first .

"Your spirit is… heavy and dark ," the Elder said calmly.

"But it listens, I'll give you a chance ."

We began immediately....

Training was brutal in its own way.

Not physically but Mentally.

Broko was forced to:

Hold his ki at 1% output while performing high-level techniques

Split his compressed Ōzaru power into thousands of micro-streams

Reassemble after forced dispersal (near-death multiple times)

He failed constantly.

And adapted .

... 1 year later.....

Techniques Learned

Instant Transmission (Advanced): Near-instant multiversal short-hop capability without the need for hands.

Forced Spirit Fission (Proto): Partial extraction of stolen/system-based power.

Spirit Compression: Further refining his permanent Ōzaru state....

...

Power Growth on Yardrat

After a year of training:

Base (Compressed): 8.2M → 11.6M

Effective Combat Output (Controlled): ~14.0M

Energy Waste Reduced: ~60% → ~12%

Broko bowed with respect to the Elder, not submission.

....

Next Objective: Planet Vegeta

Broko left Yardrat quietly.

He remembered the timeline.

Five years remained.

Enough time.

Planet Vegeta still stood.

Saiyan society still rotted.

But not all were blind.

...

A month later...

Infiltration of Planet Vegeta

Broko arrived disguised, suppressing his power to elite but non-threatening levels.

He observed.

War culture.

Short-sighted pride.

Saiyan Scientists bullied and ignored and Infants treated as weapons.

He selected carefully, as from here on he needs a faction of his own in this reality.

....

The Extraction

Taken from Planet Vegeta:

2 Saiyan brilliant scientists (ki, saiyan biology, gravity adaptation)

1 engineer (space-ship propulsion specialist , high communication tech skills, well traveled in unknown regions)

4 Saiyan infants (elite genetic markers, low trauma experience )

Initial Power Levels:

Infants: 800–1,200

Scientists/Engineer: 3,000–5,000

Broko did not steal them violently.

He convinced them with strength and facts .

He spoke the truth.

"our planet will die," he said.

"Follow me, or die ignorant like bugs."

The scientists hesitated a little as this is their first time leaving their home planet but the engineer didn't..

Birth of a New Faction

I had found a primitive planet with reasonable resources for saiyan survival and that where I took my new people...

....

5 months of travel.....

Hidden base first .....

.then

Yardrat principles adapted to Saiyan brutality.

Training began immediately.

After One Year (Projected):

Saiyan Children age 4 to 6 (with Spirit Control): ~15,000–25,000....

These brats have high talent.."Broko happily thought "..

Scientists /Engineer (Combat-Capable): ~40,000

Broko: ~16 million stabilized,

This was not an army yet.

But A seed.

.....

As Broko looked out into space, he felt it again.

Frieza's attention.

Cooler's anger.

The empire shifting.

He smiled," the spirit control has boosted his ki sense and control to high levels...

Let them come."

"I'm not just surviving the future anymore.

I'm rewriting it."

....
