Chapter 9 - The Threat has arrived

"Huh. Something is wrong?" A mysterious man wearing a strange-looking armor said.

As he checked a device that he was also wearing on his left eye.

"1450? That should be Kakarot's power level. But why is it this high?" He questioned.

"I was hoping to bring him back so that Vegeta and Nappa would stop picking on me for being weaker than a Saibamen. But if that power really belongs to Kakarot then it means my plan is in vain." He said to himself.

"I have to go and see him first." The man said as he flew towards the direction of the power level.

They then flew towards the direction of the power.

"This sucks," Ace muttered quietly to himself as he looked at the food that was in front of him.

It was a plate filled with jelly eels.

"Do you like it? I just caught it this morning." A smiling old man said to him.

Now I can't just refuse to eat this. Ace thought in his mind.

This morning while Ace was just finishing his workout a mission popped up that asked him to help a few people.

And Ace ended up helping an old fisherman carry his staff back to his home.

While he was just preparing to leave after helping him the old man asked him if he had eaten yet.

And this is how he ended up in this situation.

"So what are you waiting for? Eat up?" The old man said to Ace as he eagerly waited for Ace to take a bite out of the gross-looking dish.

"!" At that moment he suddenly felt something in the air.

An unpleasant aura was coming towards him at a very fast speed.

"What is that?" Ace said.

"What's what?" The old man asked him with confusion in his eyes.

"Sorry mister. It seems that I have to do something." Ace said as he quickly got up.

If I stayed here there is a chance that whatever I was feeling would arrive at this poor old man's house. And I really do not want to eat that. Ace thought in his mind.

"Wait." The old man tried to stop it but Ace was too fast, after all he had now far surpassed the speed of a normal human.

He immediately exited the old man's house and then took off into the sky at a very fast speed.

"He flew?" The old man said as he shockingly looked at Ace who flew into the sky and disappeared from his sight.

"What are kids these days eating to be able to do that?" He said as he went back inside his house to finish the meal.

One thing that the elderly people won't do it to waste food and since Ace hasn't even touched the dish that he made for him the old man has to eat it himself.

He sat down at the table and took a bite out of the house.

"It might need a bit more salt." The old man said.
