Starting from becoming the King of Saiyans

“Mechikabura!?”

Chronoa’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Hadn’t they already sealed Mechikabura? Why has he appeared before them again?

Wait a minute… where was Mira?

Where did the Android Mira from earlier go?

At this moment, Mechikabura stopped laughing and slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at Lin Chen with hatred and anger.

“Lin Chen! You dared to seal me, but luckily I was prepared. Otherwise, I would have almost fallen for your trap.”

Lin Chen stared at Mechikabura but suddenly laughed. “Mechikabura? Hah, stop pretending. You’re not Mechikabura!”

“What? Lin Chen, what are you saying?” Chronoa asked in surprise. “Isn’t he the real Mechikabura?”

“Chronoa-sama, don’t be fooled by him. He’s not the Mechikabura we sealed. I believe he’s just a clone of Mechikabura… a clone implanted into Mira’s body!” Lin Chen said calmly.

Hearing this, Mechikabura’s eyes widened.

How did Lin Chen see through his secret?

Seeing the astonishment on Mechikabura’s face, Lin Chen laughed even more.

His guess was indeed correct.

In fact, it wasn’t hard to uncover Mechikabura’s secret.

First of all, Lin Chen was certain that he had indeed sealed Mechikabura earlier.

Although it was his first time using the technique Chronoa had taught him, Lin Chen knew he hadn’t made a mistake.

The Eternal Labyrinth was an extremely powerful sealing technique.

The place where Mechikabura was sealed was an alternate dimension outside all timelines, the Demon Realm, and the Time Realm.

This dimension was isolated from the world, and the flow of time there was completely different from other dimensions.

Due to the Power of Time, one second in this dimension equated to ten thousand years outside.

Such a terrifying time difference indeed deserved the name Eternal Labyrinth.

Therefore, Lin Chen was certain that the Mechikabura before them was unrelated to the one they had sealed.

As for who he really was, it was easy to guess from Mira’s earlier changes. This Mechikabura was likely a clone created by the real Mechikabura using a method similar to the parasitic or soul possession.

In fact, Lin Chen’s guess was correct.

The Mechikabura before them was indeed a clone created by the real Mechikabura using Mira.

Previously, Towa and Mira had fled from the Time Nest back to the Demon Realm in panic. Mechikabura, both as a punishment and as preparation for the future revival of Zalama, had planted a hidden piece in Mira.

After reconfiguring Mira, he had implanted a part of his own body into Mira’s.

After the modification, Mira usually remained Towa’s loyal Android, just like before.

But if the real Mechikabura ever encountered trouble, Mechikabura’s tissue inside Mira would rapidly multiply, eventually taking over Mira’s body!

Earlier, Towa and Mira hadn’t appeared on the battlefield because Mechikabura had deliberately confined them in the underground of the Demon King’s Castle to leave himself a way out.

However, the explosion just now destroyed the Demon King’s Castle, forcing Towa and Mira to appear above ground.

“Y-you saw through me, but so what? Even as a clone, I’m still strong enough to destroy you all!” Mechikabura said, waving his hand in a display of false bravado.

“Really?” Lin Chen smiled slightly.

Seeing that his bluff hadn’t scared the opponent, Mechikabura was at a loss.

In reality, he was indeed bluffing.

Because the body was actually Mira’s, this Mechikabura, though appearing as powerful as the original, was only slightly stronger than Mira and even weaker than Super Mira, the fusion of Mira and Towa.

In short, he was just a paper tiger.

“D-damn it! Since you want to die…!”

Lin Chen’s smile caused Mechikabura’s expression to contort.

He suddenly clawed at Lin Chen with both hands, unleashing a surge of violent energy. A massive energy vortex disrupted the space between Lin Chen and Mechikabura, causing the previously smooth space to ripple and undulate like waves.

Eventually, a spatial storm erupted out, sweeping towards Lin Chen and Chronoa.

But at that moment, a cold glint flashed in Lin Chen’s eyes.

Buzz!

The black Sickle of Sorrow suddenly appeared in his hand, which he swung forcefully.

The sound of fabric tearing accompanied a shockwave, and with a slash, the seemingly terrifying spatial storm was obliterated!

Immediately after, Lin Chen stomped his foot and, wielding the Sickle of Sorrow, charged at Mechikabura, slashing down at him.

Currently, Mechikabura was just a clone, and his Power of Space was far inferior to his real body.

The previous attack was proof of that.

Therefore, Lin Chen believed that with one slash, this Mechikabura clone would be dead for sure.

Indeed, seeing Lin Chen charging at him, a look of despair appeared on Mechikabura’s face.

He knew very well that his power was no match for Lin Chen’s.

Mechikabura’s mouth twitched as he reached out and grabbed someone beside him.

Towa’s body moved on its own.

“L-Lord Mechikabura?”

Then, just as Lin Chen’s slash was about to land on Mechikabura, Towa appeared in front of him.

Lin Chen couldn’t stop his attack, and the Sickle of Sorrow came down.

“M…e…c…h…i…k…a…b…u…r…a…”

“Mechikabura, you used your companion as a shield?”

“A companion? Just a useless piece of trash. Her last use was as a shield!”

A bright blast of energy shot out from Mechikabura.

The energy first engulfed Towa, who was already on the verge of death and then swept towards Lin Chen.

Lin Chen grabbed the energy and crushed it.

But by then, Mechikabura had already disappeared.

Lin Chen looked around and quickly locked onto his position.

Using Towa’s death to distract Lin Chen, Mechikabura had flown towards the sky above the Demon King’s Castle.

Seeing this, Lin Chen immediately gave chase.

“Damn it! Useless trash couldn’t even delay him for a second?”

Noticing Lin Chen pursuing him, Mechikabura cursed and sped up.

“Just you wait, damn Saiyan! I can’t defeat you, but he certainly can!” Mechikabura’s gaze pierced through the thick clouds as he murmured, “Come forth! I know you’ve been resurrected! I can feel your presence! Zalama!”
