Vegeta, using the last of his strength, struck towards Dende, but Nail intercepted the blow.
Enraged, Nail immediately swung a hand blade towards Vegeta.
Unexpectedly, Vegeta had already lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground, thus dodging the attack.
"Eh?"
Nail didn't expect Vegeta to fall like that, so he picked him up from the ground, preparing to throw him away.
"Nail!"
Dende immediately spoke to stop him.
"What is it?"
Nail asked, puzzled.
"The Grand Elder has something to say!"
Hearing this, Nail didn't bother with Vegeta anymore, tossing him aside and quickly entering the house.
"Nail… tell everyone… there's a very powerful force… approaching Namek…"
Nail was immediately startled. Namek was already chaotic enough; were even more forces coming?
Outside, Nail told everyone what the Grand Elder had said.
"Great! It should be Son Goku!"
Krillin's first thought was that Son Goku was arriving soon.
"Something's wrong, it's an evil aura! And it's strong!"
Gohan said seriously.
"What do we do? None of us can beat them!"
Krillin panicked, but then he noticed Dende walking over to Vegeta.
"Den… Dende! Are you going to do it again?"
Dende nodded and took a deep breath.
"I hope the system can activate Return this time! Then, this will all be over!"
Placing his hands on Vegeta, Dende used Healing again.
"Ugh!"
Vegeta snorted coldly, then opened his eyes.
"You saved me again?"
Vegeta hadn't expected to be saved again by Dende, after already being in despair.
"You have to be on the verge of death to gain power, right? If it's just a serious injury, it probably won't have any effect, right?"
Dende's words immediately reminded Vegeta.
"So you deliberately made me feel despair."
Vegeta understood.
"But how did you know the Saiyan's secret?"
Dende didn't answer, but his expression was clearly bad.
"Didn't expect not to activate the system this time!"
"One in ten chance is really low!"
Vegeta saw everyone dejected and didn't understand what was happening.
But the next second, Vegeta was shocked and looked at the sky.
"What a powerful ki!"
"Could it be… the Ginyu Force?"
Vegeta immediately became serious.
"One, two, three, four, five! That's right, five energy signatures!"
"Frieza actually mobilized the Ginyu Force!"
Krillin, seeing that Vegeta seemed to know who was coming, immediately spoke up.
"Ginyu Force? Who are they?"
Vegeta took a deep breath.
"They are Frieza's strongest fighting force! And they must be carrying Scouters!"
"With Scouters, we have no place to hide! Frieza will find us soon!"
"Listen, hurry up and hurt me! Little runt, you have to save me! Once I become a Super Saiyan, I promise not to hurt you!"
Krillin looked at Vegeta's serious expression, which didn't seem like a joke.
Gohan had also sensed the approach of those five auras, and the evil power contained within them sent a chill down his spine.
"But... Gohan is also a Saiyan! Let him become a Super Saiyan!"
Krillin immediately said.
"It's no use!"
Dende spoke.
"If you know you'll be revived, you won't struggle at the edge of life and death, and you won't be able to gain power!"
"We have to try..."
Vegeta said quickly.
"Also, my Healing power is used up! It'll take some time to recover!"
Dende added, not waiting for Vegeta to finish.
Right now, he didn't want to heal Gohan, nor did he want to heal Vegeta.
After all, Gohan's current combat power was less than a hundred thousand. If he triggered the system while healing Gohan, he couldn't guarantee his combat power would exceed one hundred million, and he would lose the chance to defeat Frieza.
And if he healed Vegeta, with his current combat power of around two hundred thousand, and if Return wasn't triggered, Vegeta's power would reach nearly four hundred thousand, surpassing his own.
If Vegeta played any tricks, he wouldn't be a match for him!
Besides, if the two of them were injured with the mindset of being healed, they might really end up as he said, unable to struggle between life and death, and thus unable to gain power!
Hearing Dende's words, Vegeta immediately deflated.
"With my current power, I still have a chance against the Ginyu Force, but I'm no match for Frieza at all! Damn it! Success is right before my eyes, just one last step!"
Vegeta was exasperated, but Dende suddenly said.
"Frieza has already obtained the seven Dragon Balls, but he can't make a wish! After he gets the Scouter, he will definitely come to find the Grand Elder!"
Hearing Dende's words, Nail's expression immediately darkened, and he looked worriedly at the inside of the house.
Everyone felt the threat of death.
Are we just going to stay here and wait to die?
Vegeta's eyes lit up.
"Frieza wouldn't bring the Dragon Balls with him. He'll definitely have the Ginyu Force guarding the Dragon Balls! There's still hope for us!"
Dende didn't expect Vegeta to be so smart, to steal the lines he was planning to say.
"There's only one way to survive – let me obtain Immortality!"
Vegeta clenched his fists, trying to persuade everyone.
"B-but... our wishes!"
Krillin immediately felt dejected. If they really made such a wish, then the Dragon Balls on Earth couldn't revive anyone!
Wasn't this trip to Namek a waste?
Better to live a peaceful life on [Earth]!
But if Vegeta doesn't get stronger, it's easy to imagine that Frieza will soon find and kill them all!
"The [Dragon Balls] can grant three wishes!"
Nail reminded them at the right moment.
Now, facing the threat of the newly arrived Ginyu Force, everyone had to work together!
"Three? I thought it was only one?"
Krillin immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"If there are three wishes, we can also get our wishes granted!"
"Hurry up!"
Vegeta immediately urged.
"We need to quickly go and lie in wait near Frieza! Once he leaves the Dragon Balls, we'll ambush the Ginyu Force!"
"Earthlings, you come with me. After all, there are five members in the Ginyu Force! And you, you need to make the wish in Namekian!"
Vegeta hurriedly made arrangements, then revealed a confident smile!
"Hmph hmph~ I already know how to use the Dragon Balls! It seems the goddess of fortune still favors me!"
Nail's expression darkened; he didn't expect Vegeta to dare to command him.
"My duty is to protect the Grand Elder, I won't go with you!"
Hearing Nail's refusal, Vegeta clenched his fists in anger.
"Stop talking nonsense! Otherwise, I'll kill the so-called Grand Elder right now!"
"Vegeta! Wait..."
Krillin immediately spoke up,
"If the Grand Elder dies, the Dragon Balls will also disappear immediately! We still have Dende! Let Dende go with us!"
After learning that the Dragon Balls could grant three wishes, Krillin immediately stood with Vegeta and began to arrange the next plan.
Now was not the time to dwell on grudges. The only remaining path to achieve the current goal was this one.
They could only cooperate with Vegeta first!
