c37: Planet Vampa
"Li Xu, can we stay on Planet Bengal for a while longer?" Bulma asked, her eyes sparkling with expectation.
Over the past several days, Li Xu had accompanied her on explorations across the exotic terrain. The vibrant scenery and alien beauty of the planet had completely captivated Bulma's curiosity.
"Of course," Li Xu smiled gently.
He had no pressing destination at the moment, and staying in one place or another made little difference to him. The mission issued by the system to retrieve Broly from Planet Vampa still lingered in his mind, but he was biding his time for the right moment.
Using brute force to remove Broly wouldn't work. Broly's sheer raw power, even untamed, was no joke. However, if he approached peacefully, Paragus would certainly latch onto the opportunity to leave Vampa dragging Broly with him. That was an outcome Li Xu wanted to avoid.
So, he waited for a situation where Broly would be vulnerable, perhaps overwhelmed by his own power, where Li Xu could intervene decisively and without negotiation.
"Thank you!" Bulma beamed.
"I'd rather you show your gratitude through… practical actions," Li Xu said, his tone teasing.
"You're getting worse by the day!" Bulma huffed, her cheeks flushing as she pounded lightly on his chest with her soft pink fists. She knew all too well what he meant.
After they had first crossed the line of intimacy, things had escalated quickly. Desire came like wildfire. These past few days, their passions had burned without restraint so much so that Bulma could hardly move after some nights.
"Haha!" Li Xu laughed heartily, both amused and satisfied.
...
Four months passed in the blink of an eye.
During that time, Li Xu and Bulma remained on Planet Bengal, exploring its lush continents and crystalline oceans. The serenity of the world had an almost healing effect.
Still, Li Xu maintained his training regimen, spending at least half the day cultivating his strength. His power had grown substantially.

...
On this particular day, Li Xu was meditating inside the gravity-controlled training chamber when he suddenly felt a shift.
"Buzz…"
A low vibration rippled through his senses.
"The time has come."
A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.
He had been monitoring Planet Vampa for weeks via the system's remote detection feature, and now the scenario he'd been waiting for had finally arrived.
Without wasting a second or stopping to inform Bulma, Li Xu activated Instant Transmission, locking onto the energy signature on Vampa and vanished.
...
Planet Vampa, an isolated world at the edge of the galaxy, was a hostile environment ravaged by powerful storms and unstable weather. While habitable, its only known inhabitants were monstrous predators and a unique species of oversized beetles barely enough to sustain two Saiyans in exile.
In a desolate canyon, a massive power surge erupted.
A young Saiyan floated mid-air, his wild, grass-green aura erupting violently. His muscular frame rippled with uncontrollable might, and his black eyes had turned nearly white with frenzy.
"RAHHHHHHH!!"
Broly screamed into the void, unleashing a seismic wave of Ki.
The ground below him cracked violently. Dust and rock were blasted into the air as a pressure shockwave expanded from his body.
Bang!
The nearby cliff face crumbled, shattered by the explosive force of his energy.
This was not training this was Broly succumbing to the monstrous instincts embedded deep in his Legendary Saiyan blood.
And Li Xu had arrived at just the right time.
A massive boulder shattered under the force of the young man's punch. Broly wasn't aiming at anything in particular his strikes were random, wild, as if he was simply venting the overflowing power erupting uncontrollably from within.
"Broly's strength is already far beyond Frieza's," Li Xu observed silently from the shadows, keeping a safe distance while using Ki suppression to remain undetected.
He could clearly sense that Broly's current combat power had surged to approximately three billion. Even as he merely observed the aura, Li Xu's own body involuntarily tensed up, a primal fear rooted in instinct taking hold.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Broly began launching energy blasts in all directions. The glowing spheres tore through the rocky terrain, exploding on impact, scorching the surface of Planet Vampa. The entire region was quickly engulfed in flames and destruction. Li Xu, watching from afar, was thankful for his decision to keep his distance.
"Broly!"
A gruff voice echoed through the storm of destruction. A middle-aged man flew into view it was Paragus, Broly's father, yelling in a desperate attempt to break through his son's berserker state.
But Broly didn't respond. His white-hot aura flared as his gaze locked onto Paragus, eyes brimming with mindless rage. With a feral snarl, he raised his arm ready to attack.
Paragus, however, showed no fear. This wasn't the first time he had encountered his son in this frenzied state. With practiced speed, he pulled a small remote control device from his armor and pressed a button.
"AAARGH!!"
Broly howled in pain. From the shock collar around his neck, high-voltage currents coursed through his body. His massive form convulsed mid-air as his aura flickered and collapsed. Within seconds, he fell, unconscious, from the sky.
"Now's my chance!"
Li Xu saw the opening and acted instantly.
Bursting out from his hiding spot, he soared across the sky, intercepting Broly's falling body with precision. He caught the unconscious Saiyan effortlessly.
"Who's there?!" Paragus shouted, shocked. For nearly twenty years, no one else had ever set foot on Planet Vampa.
"You'll be staying here permanently, old man," Li Xu said calmly. He had no intention of killing Paragus he simply chose to leave him behind, ensuring Broly would no longer be used as a tool.
Whoosh!
With a flicker of Instant Transmission, Li Xu vanished from Planet Vampa, taking Broly with him. He did not return to Planet Bengal, but instead reappeared on a nearby planet known as Planet Bandung.
Though relatively close to Vampa in galactic terms, the two planets were worlds apart in environment. While Vampa was desolate and storm-ridden, Bandung was lush and biologically rich. Like Planet Bengal, its flora and fauna lacked sapience no civilizations had yet evolved.
There are countless such planets across the universe some take tens or even hundreds of thousands of years to develop intelligent life and become planets like Earth.
The moment Li Xu arrived with Broly, the system chimed in his mind:
"Ding dong! Mission complete. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Nuclear Regeneration Physique Plug-in."
Li Xu's mood lifted immediately. He retrieved a Senzu Bean from his pouch and fed it to Broly.
The green-haired Saiyan slowly opened his eyes, his breathing steadying as his wounds disappeared.
"Where... is this? Who are you?" Broly asked warily. This definitely wasn't the harsh red-sky landscape of Vampa.
"This planet is called Bandung," Li Xu replied with a warm smile. "I brought you here. My name is Li Xu."
Broly looked around, confused but not hostile yet. "Where's my father?"
"I only brought you here," Li Xu said neutrally. He had no intention of mentioning Paragus, and if not for Broly's sake, he might have eliminated the man altogether.
"What did you bring me here for?" Broly asked, still tense. After all, this was the first time he'd seen another human being besides his father.
"Your strength is incredible, but you have no control over it," Li Xu said frankly. "I want to help you control that power. And once you do... I want to fight you."
He knew full well he wasn't yet Broly's match. But he had no doubt that one day, he would stand equal or superior to even the Legendary Super Saiyan.
That belief burned deep within his heart.
