Novel Full Chapter 173: *Hidden*
Chapter 173: *Hidden*
“Indeed, only the few of us can know about them; we absolutely cannot divulge this information.” Mentioning that dragon balls might bring trouble, Xiaya also fully agreed.
Although the incantation for summoning Golden-Flame Shenron was only known to him, those overly-ambitious people in the universe would not stop spying! There has always only been be a 1000 days to be a thief, how could there be defending from thieves for 1000 days.* The most effective way of keeping information about the dragon balls from spreading out would be to limit the number of people who are in the know.
[TL: It is difficult to achieve long-term prevention as there is always a time when you can be negligent.]
The information about the crystal dragon balls was in his hands, and he did not intend on announcing the existence of the crystal dragon balls if it it wasn’t necessary.
Next, Xiaya again took out a deep blue exquisite small jar from his dimensional space.
After seeing the jar, Adri exclaimed: “Aiya, this jar is so beautiful!”
“Hehe, this small blue jar is more than just beautiful.” Xiaya smiled and threw a heavy bomb. “This is Fountain of Youth that I obtained from Universe Six’s Kai. It is said that drinking just a mouthful can extend your life by several hundred years!”
“You can extend your lifespan by several hundreds of years just by drinking a mouthful?” Adri and Rebecca were shocked and dumbfounded.
However, having been shocked previously because of dragon balls that can achieve any wish, seeing the Fountain of Youth, they were still able to keep their expressions under control.
“Umm!” Xiaya picked up the small jar, looked at Adri and Rebecca, and said: “Unfortunately, the amount inside is too small. I roughly estimate that it is only enough for eighteen people!”
Fountain of Youth is a magical spring water that exists in the Yellow Springs of the Underworld. It is said to be the essence condensed from the depths of the Yellow Springs. It can only produce a drop every few decades. This small jar is the result of a thousand years of accumulation. Moreover, Fountain of Youth is extremely special; if you use dragon balls to wish for it, such a wish will go against the laws of the universe and will certainly cause great trouble.
“There are eighteen people’s portions, its not few!” Adri said.
Xiaya nodded and said, “I intend to use twelve portions of the ‘Fountain of Youth’, and the rest will be temporarily reserved for emergency usage.”
“Well, that makes sense!” Adri nodded with approval. “So how are you intending to use it?”
“It’s like this…” Xiaya told him about his plans.
In fact, the ‘Fountain of Youth’ he had was not the eighteen portions that he said, but twenty-eight portions. Sometimes hiding something away is necessary!
He planned on taking out twelve portions for the strongest experts of Planet Hongshan to use, so that he can ensure that he will have strong subordinates for a long time. Moreover, it is also a good way to win over the hearts of the people, and make these experts work as his subordinates!
As for who to distribute these twelve portions to, it was actually very simple. Currently, the strongest Saiyans on Planet Hongshan were Xiaya, Adri, and others who belonged to the top most level of Planet Hongshan. Therefore, without thinking about it, these twelve portions would be directly given to them.
There were still about sixteen portions remaining, and Xiaya intends to hold a Martial Arts Assembly, ten years and twenty years later, and give six portions of the ‘Fountain of Youth’ as a reward to the top three of the competition. As for the remaining ten portions, he didn’t intend to use them; this was his private collection.
“That’s good, giving ‘Fountain of Youth’ as a reward to the winner of the competition can inspire Saiyans to train harder!” Adri listened to Xiaya’s plan and nodded with approval.
As he spoke, he glanced at Xiaya with an astonished look. Xiaya could plan like this, it was somewhat beyond his expectations. He vaguely felt that Xiaya had become more mature, and was no longer the child who in the past only did things that he liked.
He knows how to give benefits. He took out the twelve portions of ‘Fountain of Youth’ which would be able to easily win over the hearts of people and create a dozen loyal followers for him.
“But I’m afraid that this is not fair to the Saiyan youngsters of future!” Rebecca doesn’t think Adri’s thinking is deep, and frowned after hearing him. Being younger meant that training time was shorter, and that there was basically no chance for them obtain a portion.
“Aunt Rebecca, where is there fairness in this world? You have to know that luck is also a kind of strength. There is no solution to it if they have no chance!” Xiaya shrugged with a helpless look. There was only so much ‘Fountain of Youth’, how would it be possible for everyone to get some.
“What Little Ya is saying is right, just do it like this!” Adri said.
Seeing both Xiaya and Adri agree, Rebecca had nothing else to say. Next, they called Bardock, Brook, Palladi, Alice, Lise, and others to gather together. As the strongest Saiyans on Planet Hongshan, Bardock and Brook were similar to Adri. They already broke through to 100,000 Battle Power to become Super Warrior.
Contrarily, Rebecca had always been in the lead, but because of giving birth to a child her Battle Power had lagged behind for a time. Still, she was same as Palladi, Alice, Lise, and others; at the final threshold.
As for whether they can breakthrough this final threshold, it would depend on their own ability.
“Little Ya, your harvest has not been small on this time’s trip!” After landing on the ground, Alice walked over with a hearty laugh, and placed her slender small hand on Xiaya’s shoulder.
“Aunt Alice!”
“Hmm, not bad, not bad!”
At this time, Xiaya’s height has already exceeded her, so Alice’s action looked somewhat funny.
“Congratulations Sir Xiaya for the huge increase in your strength!” Bardock smiled as he walked forward.
“You know?” Xiaya was somewhat surprised.
“Hehe, this Bardock guy, ever since he came back from Planet Yardrat, he has completely turned into something like a prophet. There were many things that wouldn’t be said, yet he would already know it.” Palladi said.
Hearing this, Xiaya suddenly revealed an understanding look. It seems that after the curse on Bardock’s body from Planet Kanassa disappeared, the ability to predict future was also somewhat strengthened!
“No, this is because the power around Sir Xiaya’s body has changed. Plus only with the effect of True Spiritual Secret Art, I was able to speculate. It is simply impossible that I can predict future.” Bardock gave a wry smile.
Recently, he consecutively saw the scenes of future, but the scenes he saw at Planet Kanassa have changed. Although the result more or less hadn’t changed, the course of the events were truly earthshaking, such that he did not know which one to believe.
“Everyone knows that…” Xiaya pointed to the small jar on the table, and the twelve separate portions of the ‘Fountain of Youth’ that were placed next to it, inside exquisite glass containers.
“There are a total of twelve portions here, and there are eight people present– one for each person, and from the leftover four, one for Xiling and one for Myers…”
The people present are Xiaya, Bardock, Adri, Rebecca, Brook, Palladi, Alice, and Lise; altogether, eight people. As for Xiling and Myers, who have run over to who knows where with Instant Transmission, both of their portions would be set aside, so there were still two portions left.
No one had any objections regarding Xiling and Myers, after all, they were among the group of strongest people on Planet Hongshan.
The remaining two portions didn’t have any suitable person at the moment. Finally, Xiaya made the decision to give one portion to Bardock’s wife Gine, and put away the other one.
So that left seventeen portions for other purposes. Anyway, six of them would be used as a competition reward ten and twenty years later.
Bardock was very grateful to Xiaya for giving one portion to his wife. After all, if they were allocated based on strength, then with Gine’s weak strength, perhaps she would never have an opportunity to obtain the Fountain of Youth.
“Well, that’s it then. I will find time to send Xiling and Myers’ portion to them!” Xiaya smiled and unscrewed the glass container containing ‘Fountain of Youth’ and drank it. It didn’t have any special taste, but Xiaya could feel his body transforming little by little.
Lifespan is an intangible thing that couldn’t be sensed by the consciousness.
Seeing this, Adri and others also laughed and drank the ‘Fountain of Youth’. After that, the several people began laughing and talking about other things.
……
Milky Way Galaxy, Frieza headquarters.
At this time, Frieza was floating leisurely in midair, looking at the scenery outside the porthole.
“Mr. Dodoria, it seems in these few years conflict has occurred between my eldest brother Cooler and my father because of something! Which side do you think I should be on?”
Dodoria was dumbfounded for a while before laughing. “King Frieza, this subordinate can’t make a decision regarding the two Excellencies!”
Frieza clearly didn’t care about Dodoria’s answer. The corners of his mouth slightly rose, saying: “Father and Cooler haven’t had a conflict for many years. But, now a conflict has occurred because of something. I am very curious about what that thing is!”
It can simultaneously arouse Cooler and King Cold’s interest, and they didn’t hesitate to have a conflict, what exactly could that thing be?
Frieza leisurely looked outside the porthole, his face somewhat gloomy, and his pair of demonlike blood-red eyes flickered with a cold light.
Since Cooler’s Armored Squadron was wiped out by an unknown force in the eastern region, although a completely new Armored Squadron was soon once again established, it was nevertheless a huge blow to Cooler’s Forces. At that time, Cooler did not go into hiding to quietly lick his wounds, but unexpectedly go into conflict with King Cold without any hesitation. The thing they were looking for is not small, ah!
Frieza really knows too much about Cooler’s personality, that if there was not enough profit, he would not take such a big risk.
“Right, Mr. Dodoria, should we expand our Forces?” Frieza suddenly asked.
Frieza’s forces were located in the southern region of the North Area. The eastern and northern region were dominated by King Cold and Cooler respectively. Frieza wanted to expand his territory to the center of Milky Way Galaxy in the western region, or further south.
However, the center of Milky Way Galaxy was the location of the Galactic Patrol organization. There were not many experts there, but somehow it was a restricted area for all the Forces.
King Cold once warned him that he was not allowed to expand to the center of the Galaxy, so the idea of advancing further south could only be dropped.
As for expanding to the western region of the North Area, Frieza was frankly not willing. It’s not that there was a strong expert in the western region of the North Area that makes Frieza afraid, but that western region was very close to the West Area, and currently the West Area is the territory of King Cold’s arch-enemy, King Davidow.
Right now, West Area was very chaotic, and Frieza didn’t want to get close and stick his foot into the West Area’s territory.
