Chapter 406: I, Vegeta, Am the Ultimate Victor!
Chapter 406: I, Vegeta, Am the Ultimate Victor!
On any other day, Frieza would have patiently watched the antics of the Ginyu Squad. Despite their cringe-worthy antics, their abilities were genuine, and Frieza, the Great Emperor, always valued talent.
But today, the Elder Kurde King had come to claim his share, and with Vegeta already stealing the Dragon Balls, Frieza was in a particularly foul mood, leaving no room for the Ginyu Squad's clownish antics.
Sensing Frieza's unusual anger, Captain Ginyu wisely refrained from further tomfoolery and, after one last bizarre pose, shouted, "Ginyu Force, move out!"
On the other side, ever since Vegeta arrived on Namek, he had been cautious in his actions. After stealing five Dragon Balls from Frieza's spaceship, he had been on guard against Dodoria and Zarbon coming after him.
Soon enough, he learned from Frieza's minor soldiers that Dodoria and Zarbon had been taken care of by someone.
Although he didn't know who had done this favor, Vegeta suspected it was likely Yecheng and Goku's group.
If Dodoria and Zarbon were dealt with by Yecheng's group, then the remaining people on Namek were nothing but trash in Vegeta's eyes.
With five Dragon Balls already in his possession, finding the remaining two would make him, Prince Vegeta, the ultimate winner.
Whether it was Frieza or Goku, they would only serve to further Vegeta's ambitions.
To quickly locate the remaining two Dragon Balls, Vegeta began a massacre on Namek, aiming to gather all the Dragon Balls and fulfill his wish before Frieza arrived on the planet.
Once he achieved his goal of becoming a Super Saiyan, even if Frieza showed up, what could he do? Yecheng, Goku, and the rest would be trampled under Vegeta's feet.
However, just as Vegeta located the sixth Dragon Ball and was about to attack the nearby village, he encountered those damn Earthlings again.
Indeed, as Vegeta prepared to seize the Dragon Ball, Bulma's spaceship arrived, carrying Vegeta and the others.
Seeing the familiar faces, Vegeta realized that without Yecheng and Goku, he hadn't considered these minor soldiers a threat.
But what Vegeta didn't expect was that the villagers, upon seeing Vegeta as a fellow Namekian with superior strength, chose to sacrifice themselves and 'assimilate' with Vegeta.
'Assimilation' was one of the unique powers of the Namekians; as fellow Namekians, they could sacrifice themselves, adding their strength to another Namekian.
Although the Namekians here were individually weak, their numbers were more than enough.
Vegeta and the others, having undergone intense gravity training on the spaceship, were already significantly stronger than they had been on Earth.
With this wave of 'assimilation', Vegeta's power even surpassed that of the current Vegeta, and he was suppressed in the fight!
Mere Namekians had surpassed the power of Prince Vegeta!
Especially the Namekian standing before him, who had been completely beneath his notice on Earth, was now pinning him down and rubbing his face in the dirt, something Vegeta couldn't accept.
Just as Vegeta and the Namekian were engaged in an intense battle, the Ginyu Squad arrived, drawn by the surge of power on Namek.

"Ginyu Squad, Gudo!"
"Ginyu Squad, Rikum!"
"Ginyu Squad, Ginyu!"
As the three of them entered the arena, striking strange poses, Vegeta and his group stared at them in disbelief.
Vegeta, who had just been fearless, now trembled at the sight of these comical individuals.
"Without Bart and Gis, our formation is incomplete..."
"Captain, let's finish them quickly. I bet three chocolate bars with Bart that we'd defeat them before they could finish us off."
The speaker was Rikum of the Ginyu Squad, his unique pineapple hairstyle making him stand out. He clearly didn't consider Vegeta and his group a threat.
"Vegeta's power level is 30,000, the Namekian over there is at 32,000, and those two kids are at 3,000 and 5,000."
Ginyu, surprised by the power levels he scanned with his power level detector, quickly composed himself.
Vegeta and his group's power levels might seem formidable to others, but to the Ginyu Squad, they were not a significant threat.
Before Ginyu could finish speaking, he vanished from in front of Vegeta's group.
As Krillin, who was holding a Dragon Ball, shouted "Careful!", his body was already sent flying, and the Dragon Ball in his hand landed in Ginyu's grasp.
Vegeta, seeing how easily Ginyu had dispatched Krillin, decided to flee without hesitation.
No one knew the Ginyu Squad's fearsome reputation better than him; if he left and concealed his energy, these power level detector-reliant soldiers would never find him.
However, his plan was thwarted as Rikum, with his pineapple-like hair, suddenly appeared above him and punched him down.
"Little Vegeta, where are you off to in such a hurry? I'm your opponent."
Ginyu, aware of Rikum's temperament, called out, "Rikum, take it easy! Don't kill Vegeta; we need him to tell us about the other Dragon Balls."
Ginyu examined the Dragon Ball in his hand, tossing it up and down, clearly realizing it was an unexpected bonus.
Looking at the recovering Vegeta, Krillin, and the others, Ginyu sneered, "As for you lot, if you know the location of the last Dragon Ball, you might get the same treatment as Vegeta.
But if you know nothing, then you can go to your deaths!"
Bulma, hiding in the distance, was terrified by the menacing space warriors.
She had come for the three wishes of the Namekian Dragon Balls, hoping to wish for Night City to fall in love with her or for Shenron to find her a perfect boyfriend like Night City.
