Just as Ino left with the stone statue of Broly, Nappa quietly opened one eye. After Son Goku and Vegeta also left using Instant Transmission, he patted the dust off his body and stood up ostentatiously.
He was truly afraid of the "Witch's" method of silently controlling him, which was why he lay on the ground pretending to be dead.
Broly did indeed punch him, but that punch was actually blocked by Ino's "Time Accumulation Art", so he wasn't injured at all.
When Lord Nappa started roaming the world with a battle power of 4,000, what did he rely on? Was it his own fists or Vegeta's protection? Neither!
Frieza was full of malice toward Saiyans. Zarbon, Dodoria, and those lackeys were always targeting Vegeta. Perhaps they couldn't attack Vegeta directly, but dealing with the people around Vegeta, using underhanded methods or setting traps—that was no problem.
For Lord Nappa to survive until now in such an environment surrounded by wolves, he relied on his skill of playing dead!
Looking at Paragus's corpse, eyes wide open in death, he spat out a mouthful of bloody foam.
"Pah, idiot!"
Whatever happened to "Saiyans don't make things hard for Saiyans"? If this guy hadn't brought his unlucky son to Earth to cause trouble, Lord Nappa would still be living the high life right now.
In his view, if Paragus had played dead and kept a low profile, his survival chance would have been high. Ino wouldn't even bother with such a minor character. But no, he stiffened his neck and insisted on provoking her. Look at him now? A big hole blown through his heart. Isn't that what he deserves?
Nappa laughed wildly as he walked in front of the mechanical soldiers Paragus left behind. After the battle with Broly, he felt his battle power had advanced by leaps and bounds. He was now so strong he scared himself!
"Hahahaha, little trash, come and play with Lord Nappa!" He smashed those mechanical soldiers like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, then rushed into that giant egg-shaped spaceship.
To fool Vegeta and to raise his son Broly, Paragus had stored quite a lot of delicious and nutritious food inside the spaceship. Now, these were all his spoils of war!
Lord Nappa had fought Broly for a long time; his body wasn't just normally hungry, it was extremely hungry!
On the other side.
Learning the battle was over, the Earthlings who had run far away returned to the scene one after another. Hearing that Mr. Satan defeated the alien and saved the Earth, that enthusiasm seemed capable of igniting everything.
The TV live broadcast repeatedly played the footage of Satan knocking down Broly. Broly's muscle-bound figure with white eyes looked truly ferocious. Even across the TV screen, many viewers felt a fear welling up from the depths of their hearts. Now that Mr. Satan could defeat such a strong enemy, what was he if not a savior?
"Mr. Satan!"
"Mr. Satan!"
Going from minor fame to the level of a human hero, Satan was overjoyed. Facing the camera, he made a V-sign: "From now on, Earth will be protected by me, hahahahaha—"
Not far away, the three little girls—Himawari, Kale, and Videl—looked at each other.
Kale looked around, her small palm-sized face full of worry: "Why hasn't Papa come back yet?"
Himawari bit her finger, her expression also a bit worried: "That guy, honestly. She's not decisive at all. Mom always says that about her, dilly-dallying when doing things."
Videl didn't understand the logic behind them calling a beauty "Papa," but at this moment she felt deeply touched. Hugging her arms like a little adult: "Adults are all like this, doing things in a muddled way, making us worry along with them."
The three little girls looked at each other, then looked at Mr. Satan waving his fists at the camera lens, and sighed in unison. Adults were simply too unreliable!
...
On a barren planet in the West Galaxy.
Ino set Broly's stone statue upright to the side and took out the GodPad to study it.
She was pondering which universe would be suitable to transport Broly to.
Broly, Majin Buu—these guys actually posed no threat to her. If she really couldn't beat them, she could run!
Grand Zeno's universal erasure, that was the most terrifying thing.
The universe vanishing in an instant, with nowhere to run—what was she supposed to do then?
Secretly send her wife and children to those four universes with an average Civilization Index of 7, and then stay behind alone in the Seventh Universe?
The big shots above weren't idiots!
She felt her wife and children were all wonderful, very cute, her precious darlings. But to be honest... Hinata had a gentle personality, Himawari was quirky, and Kale? Learn about the Legendary Super Saiyan? With their qualities, it would probably be hard to meet the requirements of a Level 7 civilization; they'd likely be exposed as soon as they went over.
The "immigration" route was a dead end.
Becoming an Angel would only save herself, not her family.
Helpless against the brat-like Grand Zeno, it seemed she could only pin her hopes on Son Goku. This was the real difficulty, an insoluble situation. Compared to this, the Broly before her was nothing.
Just as Ino was studying, Son Goku and Vegeta suddenly appeared in front of her.
She paused a moment. "Oh? Instant Transmission? You can sense my ki from so far away? That technique is impressive."
Son Goku scratched his head with a smile.
Vegeta shoved him aside with a forceful push, sending him stumbling.
Then he glared at Ino: "Do you know that the guy inside the stone statue called Broly is still alive?"
Ino looked surprised. "I know. What about it? You ran all this way just to say that? I know what I'm doing."
Vegeta said word by word: "I don't understand your tricks, but I know one thing. This guy is the Legendary Super Saiyan. Legend has it they can survive in extremely harsh environments. Feigning death and hibernation is just a basic ability for him. Your little superpowers can't hold him at all!"
Ino looked at him for a moment, then turned back to look at the statue.
Broly's face still maintained the expression from when he was petrified, looking ordinary. But if one sensed carefully, one could indeed detect a faint, barely discernible aura.
This guy was actually using the petrification to secretly accumulate energy!
Ino immediately opened the interdimensional Crossing Moon Bridge, preparing to send this guy to plague the Sixth Universe.
Just as her energy locked onto the other universe, she heard a series of crisp "crack, crack" sounds coming from inside the statue.
She hurriedly canceled the spatial targeting and retreated rapidly, watching as Broly shook his shoulders, shook off the stone debris, and slowly stood up.
He observed his surroundings and found it was a barren planet. "Thank you for bringing me here. The previous planet had too much life; I didn't want to kill too many people... This place is good!! Very good!—"
"Ah—! Ah!!"
In less than a second, he completed the Super Saiyan transformation. This time, the green tint in his hair was ten times richer than before. Then, energy surged up like a tidal wave, entering his Final Form. He turned into the Legendary Super Saiyan!
