Chương 54: Rescue

Another hour went by and there was still no movement of Broly. The Saiyan became anxious as he knew that something went wrong. So much time has passed and there were still no changes to Broly's aura, which meant that Broly was still in control.

"This is impossible! I can clearly detect that he is already oozing with lifeforce. It should have already exceeded his limits! But why? Why is there still no change? I have calculated everything perfectly. Even if he was ten times stronger, it would be impossible for him absorb all this lifeforce! What should I do? There's no way I can accomplish my mission now. I would have failed. I can't revive my lord!"

He unconsciously took a few steps backwards and his body slightly trembled at this thought.

"No! Even if I can't revive him now, there has to be a way to revive him. If this amount isn't enough, I will gather more, even if it means to absorb an entire universe! There will be no way you can absorb it next time. Phuuu. I should leave."

He stopped speaking as he saw the sun completely vanish. He quickly put two fingers on his forehead, concentrating on something, but before he could do anything, something made him shiver immediately breaking his focus.

He couldn't make a coherent thought. His eyelids started to twitch and sweat was appearing on his forehead. After a minute of trying to teleport away, he already drenched his clothes with sweat.

Tears started to flow down his cheek as he slowly opened his eyes. He saw Broly hovering in front of him only a few tens of centimeters away. He stared at the yellow eyes that seemed to glare deep into his soul, terrifying him to his core.

"I am sorry my lord, I have failed." Blood leaked out of his mouth and the lights in his eyes quickly vanished, becoming lifeless as he still looked into Broly's eyes.

Broly furrowed his eyebrows. He wanted to capture this Saiyan and force any information out of him, but he couldn't prevent the Saiyan from dying. It seemed that he had made a safeguard, so he wouldn't be captured.

Broly looked at his hands. He already reverted to his base form. He was now aware what slumbers inside him and he would need to make preparation to counter it. It seemed that an ancient soul slumbered inside him and even as the Legendary Super Saiyan he couldn't affect it at all. It was way beyond his current power. He believed that he would at least need to become a God before he could do anything to it. Maybe he needs to use hakai on it.

Theoretically it shouldn't be able to do anything now, if he doesn't feed it anymore lifeforce. Of course, he was clear on the consequences if he was wrong. He still felt threatened as he looked at it with his inner eye. It didn't increase in size, but it had a strange glow on it as it was spinning slowly inside his center.

It still didn't leak any energy but as it was absorbing lifeforce he became aware that it was just hiding a tremendous amount of energy. It wasn't any energy which Broly interacted with before.

He put this thought into the back of his mind. He looked up and saw that he was surrounded by a bunch of CEs with faces. They seemed to be attracted by his lifeforce, but they didn't come any closer. They were frightened but they couldn't let go of this temptation that was Broly. Suddenly a Saiyan with black liquid running through his veins approached from the back. The CEs parted and opened a path for him.

"What a delightful day! I am no longer in control and now all this strength is mine, mine alone! With this strength it will be easy for me to kill Frieza, build an empire and rule this universe! Now even a delicious prey has offered itself to me! Hahahah. Although we are both Saiyans the lifefo-"

He stopped talking after Broly slowly slashed down with his hand.

"Impossi-" The Saiyans fell to his knees. A red line appeared from his forehead down his body, dividing his body into two halves. The two halves separated from each other as the two parts fell to the ground.

With another swipe of his hand all the CEs in his path were cut in half. He couldn't use any ki now, but his bodily strength powered by lifeforce was able to create wind slashes which cut through them like a hot knife through butter. He casually disposed of these CEs, which would be able to rule over a galaxy with their strength, in mere a second.

He walked to the entrance the Saiyan appeared from and proceeded, with corpse of the culprit under his arms, to walk further inside. After the death of the Saiyan all doors seemed to have opened, Broly didn't know why but by the way the Saiyan killed himself, it seemed that he could do it telepathically. Now after his death all the doors went back to their default position. He also seemed to have commanded the CEs this way as well. The tiny bit of intelligence they seemed to have, vanished as they rampaged and even killed each other.

After awhile he came across a room filled with monitors which displayed different scenes. They all showed the perspective of the CEs roaming the corridors. His attention was caught by a monitor which showed seemingly different sleeping Saiyans. They were slowly waking up one by one.

Broly went on and searched this underground base until he found a room with tens of Saiyans sitting on the ground and comforting each other. As he came into the room, he gathered the attention of the Saiyans. They observed him. They saw that unlike them, he didn't have any black liquid inside his veins, meaning that he wasn't controlled.

Some gazes became hostile. They stood up but didn't approach him.

"Do you belong to him?!" One of them shouted as he pointed at the Saiyan under his arms. They immediately recognized him as he was the one that experimented on some of them.

"Belong to him? Why would I walk with him unconscious into a room of potential enemies? Are you stupid? I am here to rescue you. Now stop talking and follow me!"

Some of them furrowed their eyebrows in dissatisfaction but most of them started laughing and released sighs of relief. They already saw that the one who manipulated him, dead or unconscious in the hands of this young Saiyan. His strength must be tremendous to defeat the one, they couldn't hope to defeat. That was also why they hesitated to make a move in the beginning.

They followed him while chatting happily, Broly gave some orders to gather anything that seemed of importance. They encountered some CEs, but they were quickly cut into pieces by Broly.

The others were in awe as they saw this, the strength of this young Saiyan was far beyond something they could have ever achieved. Even those that were confident by the new strength they gained through the experiments, they didn't think that they could defeat the one that controlled them less the one that defeated that same person. They wouldn't withstand a second against the young Saiyan, they all thought in unison.
