Capítulo 77: Frieza? The Grand Elder: Slug is Back Too
Who possesses such an evil presence?
And why are they approaching Planet Namek at this time?
This presence is not extremely powerful, but it still registers a strength of several hundred thousand in battle power.
In the current era, matching this level of strength and imbued with such malice and murderous intent...
A figure appeared in Lin Chuan's mind, momentarily stunning him.
It wasn't fear but disbelief.
"This presence... could it be Frieza?? No, it can't be... But if not Frieza, then who could it be?" Frowning, Lin Chuan heightened his alertness, digging through his memory for relevant plot details.
Logically, no outsider should be visiting Planet Namek at this stage.
The only explanation for this anomaly was his influence—the butterfly effect.
Regarding strength, Frieza's first form without transformation has a power level 530,000.
Apart from Frieza, Lin Chuan couldn't think of anyone else.
While Lin Chuan was riddled with doubts, Nail entered his sensory range, quickly finding him and coming to his side.
Despite not having made any particular efforts to build relationships over these days, Lin Chuan had somewhat changed the Namekians' initial perception of him.
Especially Nail, who initially harbored extreme hostility towards Lin Chuan.
After subsequent sparring and interaction, Nail gradually came to respect Lin Chuan, recognizing his character in combat and daily life.
At least, he was not bad and posed no threat to the Namekian race.
"Nail? What brings you here?" Lin Chuan asked as Nail suddenly appeared, not yet revealing his detection of the evil aura but questioning Nail's intentions.
Though guessing that Nail's visit might relate to the evil presence he sensed, he first needed to hear Nail's reasons.
After all, the situation had developed abruptly and was too coincidental.
"Lin Chuan, the Grand Elder, has summoned you," Nail stated his purpose.
He didn't elaborate, but the Grand Elder would not call him without good reason.
[It seems the situation is more serious than I thought. Who exactly is behind this evil presence?] Lin Chuan speculated inwardly, his eyes narrowing.
"Since the Grand Elder wants to see me, let's go," he nodded in agreement, choosing to fly there using his flight technique.
Better to seek answers from the Grand Elder himself than speculate here.
Nail followed closely behind.
In no time, they arrived at the Grand Elder's residence.
Unsurprisingly, Piccolo and Gohan were already there, apparently having waited for some time.
Lin Chuan saw the Grand Elder again.
"I'm here, Grand Elder. Please speak frankly. You wouldn't have called us together without reason," Lin Chuan went straight to the point.
The Grand Elder nodded slightly.
Having rested these past days, he had already recovered from his previous exhaustion.
"I believe you've sensed it, too? In the cosmos, a powerful force of evil is approaching our Planet, Namek. It won't be long before it arrives," the Grand Elder spoke, causing immediate shock among Nail, Piccolo, and Gohan.
They were initially unaware of what was happening.
Now that the Grand Elder mentioned it, they focused intently on sensing the cosmos.
Soon, they all detected a profoundly evil aura.
Their strengths were not weak, but the sheer hostility of the aura changed their expressions dramatically.
Especially Nail, whose power had increased over these days through sparring but was still around 40,000.
"Grand Elder, is this evil presence coming to invade our Planet Namek?" Nail asked with great concern.
"Somehow, this evil aura feels familiar to me. Oh right! It's the aura of the Demon Clan." Piccolo interjected.
Gohan, unaware of the specifics, simply stood by and listened attentively.
"Since you've brought it up, let's clarify further. You seem familiar with this evil presence," Lin Chuan stated bluntly.
The Grand Elder sighed again: "Ah...! It's all my fault... The source of this evil power is the first child I sent to another planet."
"What?!" Piccolo was shocked.
This situation mirrored his own, except he wasn't the Grand Elder's child.
"Yes, just like you, Piccolo. Kadatz sent you away as part of our Namekian heritage... And I, I sent away my child, Slug..."
As the Grand Elder revealed this, Lin Chuan's eyebrows rose, and memories surged in his mind.
Though the turn of events was unexpected, the name Slug was not unfamiliar to Lin Chuan.
Slug had significantly impacted an alternate storyline in the movie specials.
Lin Chuan vividly remembered that Slug's arrival triggered Goku's pseudo-Super Saiyan transformation.
In the main storyline, Goku had broken through during his battle with Frieza due to Krillin's death, but in an alternate dimension, it was Slug who first pushed Goku beyond his limits.
[I didn't expect it to be him... Just as I suspected, anything is possible in this real world, and many characters from the spin-offs also exist.] Lin Chuan felt reassured.
While he wasn't afraid of Frieza in his untransformed final form, encountering him now would mean he'd have to eliminate Frieza before any transformation could occur.
It was confirmed not to be Frieza but Slug, so it brought a different kind of sentiment.
What was the agreement the Grand Elder made with him days ago?
Had he not anticipated Slug's imminent arrival?
Otherwise, he should have informed him in advance.
The Grand Elder closed his eyes briefly, explaining everything in continuous narration.
In essence, Slug's return was too sudden.
Although he didn't know why Slug had chosen this time to return, the Grand Elder hoped Lin Chuan could help them subdue him.
Regardless of whether Slug was deeply corrupted or had gone to extremes, as a father, he wanted to attempt to guide him.
After all, this was his child, and he had his plans.
Even if others came to invade and really came for revenge, Lin Chuan could not refuse.
Moreover, the Grand Elder had reached an understanding with him from the start—they would assist each other without harming their interests.
Regarding Slug, Lin Chuan could only say that he wouldn't mind giving him a way out as long as he didn't court death himself.
After all, there was no feud, and Lin Chuan was never one to seek trouble.
So confident?
Naturally.
First, Slug was already an old man; his strength was not even one-tenth of his peak.
Second, even if he successfully used the Dragon Balls to wish for youth, Lin Chuan was confident he could suppress him.
Although the North Kai rated him highly in the movie specials, when compared to Frieza, he was still lacking.
Moreover, he couldn't make a wish with the Dragon Balls.
Even if his power did explode, it would only be around a million at most.
