This Is Definitely Not Dragon Ball!!

"Swear allegiance to you? Serve you? You want to defeat Frieza, conquer the galaxy, and the universe?"

"Hahaha! Hahahahahaha!"

Hearing what seemed to her like the most absurd thing ever, Vegeta couldn't help but burst into laughter. Even the prideful figure on her chest shook with her laughter.

Yuujin didn't say anything, just watched the beautiful sight in front of him with a smirk. Eventually, Vegeta realized the impropriety, crossed her arms over her chest, and glared at Yuujin angrily.

"Sirus, you must be insane!"

"Just because you defeated me, you think you're invincible in the universe? You have no idea how terrifying Frieza truly is!"

"Conquer the galaxy, conquer the universe—no Saiyan, however arrogant, has ever dreamed this big!"

Vegeta's words were harsh, but she had every reason to be blunt. Even she feared Frieza's power, and despite feeling humiliated, she couldn't avoid serving him. She admitted Yuujin was impressive, underestimated by everyone, but as strong as he was, he couldn't possibly be a match for Frieza!

And he dares to talk about conquering the galaxy, the entire universe? The universe is vast beyond measure, filled with powerful beings and races. Even Frieza, who calls himself the Emperor of the Universe, hasn't truly conquered it. And yet, this mere Sirus thinks he can?

Arrogant! Ignorant! Delusional!

Ridiculous!

In the face of Vegeta's mockery, Yuujin simply shook his head, remaining calm.

"Frieza is indeed strong. I know him better than you might think."

"This universe is vast, and conquering it won't be easy."

"But if I have such ambitions, I naturally have the confidence and plans to achieve them."

After a pause, Yuujin continued, "Let's set that aside for now. We should talk about you serving under me."

"Princess Vegeta, your talents are undeniable, so I'd like to have a subordinate with as much potential as you."

"If you swear allegiance to me, I'll grant you whatever you desire."

Yuujin believed he had made a fair offer. If Vegeta sincerely pledged loyalty, after their conquest, he'd consider even reviving Planet Vegeta, helping her restore the Saiyan legacy, and perhaps even making her queen of the Saiyans.

But in response to his offer, Vegeta merely sneered.

"I am Vegeta, the Princess of Saiyans."

"You think you're worthy of my loyalty?"

Proud Vegeta, serve anyone? Not a chance. Even under Frieza, she had only ever played along.

The mere thought of submitting to some Sirus was a joke!

"So, a friendly approach won't sway you..."

Yuujin sighed, rubbing his forehead.

If possible, he would have preferred to recruit such a valuable asset peacefully, but since she wasn't cooperating, he'd have to take more forceful measures.

Yuujin lowered his hand, his expression hardening.

"Apologies, Princess, but I'm withdrawing my offer. You clearly don't understand your current position."

"Yes, you are the proud Vegeta, the Saiyan Princess—but you lost to me. Now, you're nothing more than my captive and my slave!"

"Sirus!"

An intense, icy killing intent radiated from Vegeta, but Yuujin ignored it, stepping closer to lift her chin.

"What? Did I say anything untrue?"

"The strong dominate the weak. Isn't that the Saiyan code?"

"Serve me well from now on, like a dog."

"If you can't stand it, then defeat me. But until that day, submit to my control."

Yuujin's words echoed in the air. Off to the side, the Red Silk Girls and the holy maids gazed at him with adoration, while Vegeta's face was darker and colder than ever.

It enraged her, but Sirus was right. She had lost, and by Saiyan law, being treated as a slave was inevitable.

"Sirus, you'll regret this! You will!"

Suppressing her fury, Vegeta's voice was icy.

She had never been angrier, not even when she'd learned Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta and yet still had to serve him.

Damn you, Sirus! Remember this!

Though he knew she was furious, Yuujin didn't care.

All he needed was for this princess to submit, becoming a weapon he could wield.

"Princess, may I take that as your acceptance of my offer?"

Yuujin smiled brightly, and Vegeta responded with a cold huff, turning her head away.

"Don't worry. I won't regret this."

"I'll train you thoroughly, so you can become even stronger—because the stronger you are, the more useful you are to me."

"You're free to challenge me anytime. If you can defeat me, you'll regain your freedom. You could even kill me and wipe out everyone on this planet."

"You're that confident you'll always be able to overpower me?"

Yuujin asked with a sinister grin, while Vegeta smirked.

"Not entirely confidence. It's more of a self-motivation. I respect your potential as a warrior."

"You'll work tirelessly to free yourself, and I'll be forced to train harder to keep ahead and survive."

"My ambition is to defeat Frieza, conquer the galaxy, and rule the universe. If I can't even control you, how can I achieve those goals? If that's the case, I might as well die by your hand."

"This is my vision. Do you understand now?"

Yuujin declared his true intentions with a determined smile.

He didn't just want to control Vegeta; he wanted her to be the pressure that kept pushing him forward.

Continuous battle and a sense of constant danger were essential for Saiyan growth. His and Goku's progress had stagnated because of their overly peaceful lives.

To avoid complacency, Yuujin needed someone to push him forward!

Someone with the power and potential to threaten him. Goku might meet some criteria, but she'd never turn against him, let alone harm him. There was no one more suitable than Princess Vegeta.

Yuujin was sure of one thing: given enough power, Vegeta wouldn't hesitate to kill him, and everyone in the temple!

Watching the crazed glint in Yuujin's eyes, even Vegeta felt a chill.

This madman!
