"R-Rice… rice cooker?!!"
The moment Demon King Piccolo saw the familiar object, his expression changed instantly.
His entire body trembled uncontrollably.
"N-No… It can't be… Is that… that thing?!"
"You should remember this!" Master Roshi roared.
"Long ago, my master Mutaito sealed you inside a rice cooker just like this!"
"History will repeat itself today!"
"This time, you will still end up sealed!"
"NOOO!!!"
Piccolo panicked.
The fear buried deep inside his soul completely overwhelmed his pride.
At that moment, he no longer cared about his dignity as a demon king.
He screamed and released his energy, flying upward like a frightened giant bird.
He desperately tried to escape.
"EVIL—CONTAINMENT—WAVE!"
Roshi's eyes burned with determination.
His hands moved in a mysterious pattern.
His energy surged violently as he prepared to unleash the technique that would cost him his life.
"Old man! Don't do something stupid!"
At that critical moment—
A figure rushed forward at a speed too fast for the eye to follow.
It was Broly.
Without hesitation, Broly reached out and grabbed Roshi's head from behind.
Then—
He slammed it straight into the ground.
"BOOM!"
Roshi's face smashed directly into the dirt.
The impact even created a human-shaped crater in the ground.
Master Roshi: "..."
Roshi felt his entire body shake.
His back almost broke.
Stars spun before his eyes.
This brat…
This little monster…
I raised you all these years!
And now you hit me at the most important moment?!
Are you secretly working for Demon King Piccolo?!
Before Roshi could recover—
Broly had already rushed to the rice cooker.
Then—
He stomped it with one foot.
"CRACK—SMASH!"
The rice cooker shattered instantly.
It broke apart like a fragile eggshell.
The sealing talismans lost their glow.
The last hope was destroyed in a single kick.
After finishing, Broly looked relieved.
He dusted off his hands calmly.
Then he somehow pulled out a chicken drumstick and took a big bite.
He chewed happily, completely ignoring everyone around him.
Nearby—
Tien Shinhan, who had just regained consciousness briefly, witnessed the entire scene.
His three eyes widened in shock.
Broly! What are you doing?!
That's Master Roshi!
The man who raised you!
Why are you attacking him?!
Whose side are you on?!
Before he could process it further—
Tien passed out again.
Meanwhile, Roshi slowly raised his head from the crater.
Mud covered his face.
Then he looked at the pile of broken rice cooker pieces.
At that moment—
He felt like the sky had collapsed.
Not only his plan…
But also his hope.
That rice cooker…
I prepared it specifically for this moment…
And you destroyed it with one kick?!
Despair filled Roshi's heart.
It's over.
The world is doomed.
Nearby, Chiaotzu wiped sweat from his forehead.
His small brain was filled with confusion.
What just happened?
Isn't Broly on our side?
Wasn't he here to help?
Piccolo's Misunderstanding
High in the air, Demon King Piccolo glanced down cautiously.
He noticed something strange.
No Evil Containment Wave.
No sealing technique.
Instead—
He saw a young man knock Roshi down and destroy the rice cooker.
Piccolo froze.
Then his expression twisted into a strange smile.
I understand now!
This young man must have realized that I am the true ruler of the world.
He wants to join my side!
That's why he stopped the old man from using the Evil Containment Wave!
He even destroyed the rice cooker for me!
How clever!
Piccolo suddenly felt extremely confident again.
There was no need to run anymore.
The danger had disappeared.
"Thud!"
Piccolo landed on the ground with arrogance.
He stood directly in front of Broly, who was still eating his chicken leg.
"Kid, you're very smart," Piccolo said proudly.
"You made the right choice."
"You helped me greatly."
"Because of that, I'll allow you to become my personal subordinate."
"You'll be responsible for cleaning my throne… and giving me massages."
Broly stopped chewing.
He looked up slowly.
He stared at Piccolo from head to toe.
After a few seconds—
Broly frowned slightly.
Then he muttered honestly:
"You… don't look that impressive."
"You actually seem… pretty weak."
