The outpost was quiet. Boring. Routine patrol logs and shipment schedules filled the monitors.
Then the scouter screamed.
"What the... ?" a Frieza Force soldier
snapped upright. "I've got a signal. Saiyan frequency code."
Another soldier laughed. "That's impossible. Saiyans are extinct."
The console chimed again.
POWER LEVEL: 13,000
The room went dead silent.
"…That's not elite," one muttered slowly. "But it's not low-class either."
The transmission crackled.
"This is Broly. Assigned to Planet Vampa. Reporting survival and requesting further orders."
The supervisor's eyes widened.
"Broly…?" He typed rapidly. "Cross-check Saiyan registry."
The system returned nothing.
"No record," the technician whispered. "This one wasn't logged."
The supervisor swallowed.
"…Another Saiyan. One Frieza doesn't know about."
He didn't hesitate.
"Forward this to Lord Dodoria. Immediately, we might even get a promotion for this.. ."
5 minutes later....
Dodoria listened to the report with a grin that never quite reached his eyes.
"A hidden Saiyan, huh?" he growled. "Cute."
Zarbon raised an eyebrow. "Frieza's orders were clear. No survivors outside Prince Vegeta's squad."
Dodoria cracked his knuckles.
"Then we clean it up."
He glanced at the power reading.
"Thirteen thousand? Hah. Send a squad of grunts, maybe nineteen thousand each. Overkill for a brat."
Zarbon hesitated. "Shouldn't we... "
Dodoria waved him off grinning . "Naah.... It's one Saiyan. What's the worst that could happen?"
He turned to the communicator.
"Outpost. Send the child coordinates to Planet Kaarth. Frieza Force-controlled world. We'll handle the rest."
A cruel grin spread across his face.
"Make it quiet."
Three months later.
Broly's pod glided through space, destination locked.
He stared at the coordinates in silence.
A Frieza-controlled planet… already?
His instincts screamed that this was a set up.
Frieza didn't miss survivors and definitely not Saiyan ones.
Broly clenched his jaw.
I knew this was coming.
Still, he adjusted his scouter, suppressing his power down to the same believable level. Thirteen thousand. Steady. Non-threatening.
I'll survive, he told himself.
Like always.
Planet Kaarth
The pod touched down smoothly.
Too smooth.
Broly stepped out and froze, using ki sense he found out what's going on..
The air felt Crowded.
He turned quickly as he sensed Energy blasts heading his way as they tore through the sky.
Broly rolled,avoiding a barrage that vaporized the ground where he'd stood.
"Target confirmed!" a Frieza Force grunt shouted. "Saiyan child!"
Five of them.
Each strong. Each experienced.
Damn it, Broly thought. Too soon, I don't want to expose my power yet. .
They jumped at broly...
Broly fought on instinct and discipline learn.
He dodged. Blocked. Countered with restrained force. His lack of real combat experience showed his movements efficient but inexperienced.
A weak punch caught his ribs.
Another blast scorched his shoulder armor .
Annoyance flared and something else with it.
Rage.
The whispers grew louder.
Break them.
Make them scream.
Broly slammed one soldier into the ground but didn't finish him.
Instead… he smiled.
A slow, cruel smile.
"Run," he said softly.
The soldier crawled back in terror.
Broly dragged the fight out.
He shattered armor. Crushed limbs by squeezing them with bare hands .
He Let screams echo longer than necessary.
He began to laugh, low and dark.
Then he stopped himself.
No.
He inhaled sharply, forcing ki inward, fists shaking violently.
"Enough.".
In a burst of controlled fury, he ended it. clean, final, merciless.
Bodies fell silent.
Smoke drifted. But it was too late
Broly turned and saw the last soldier collapse against a rock, scouter blinking.
A transmission bar completed..
"…Transmission sent," the dying soldier croaked with a smile.
Broly's blood ran cold.
Frieza knows.
He looked at his trembling hands still glowing faintly with suppressed power.
I almost lost myself.
The Legendary instincts pulsed, hungry.
Broly straightened, eyes hard.
"…Then I don't get to stay hidden anymore."
Far away, a tyrant would soon receive a message that changed everything.
And this time
The monster wasn't a rumor.
