Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

Trunks, who had been knocked back, stared at Android 18 in terror, as if he were looking at an incredibly powerful and monstrous monster.

The sword in his hand was partially shattered by the impact from his seemingly thin and weak arm.

Trunks, already terrified, was now truly plunged into despair! He stammered, "The sword! The sword is just shattered like that!?"

Seeing that Trunks didn't take his words seriously, Number Seventeen wanted to teach the blond kid a lesson.

Perhaps because Trunks was still in a daze, he was completely unprepared for the sudden appearance of Number Seventeen.

The rebellious android Android 17 seemed to be using a pose that he thought was rather cool, but the force behind it was not to be underestimated.

Because right after Trunks took that hit, he flew out and crashed into the mountainside!

But the force was far more than that. Trunks, radiating golden light, was instantly forced back into his normal form by that single blow. He was abruptly knocked back from his Super Saiyan form by that single force!

The sword fell to the ground, as if it were an iron sword that had lost all its killing power!

Tien Shinhan and Piccolo, seeing this, naturally couldn't stand idly by and wanted to step forward to help the two!

Krillin remained motionless as Trunks and Vegeta collapsed. He stammered, "They...they were defeated so easily! Trunks is a Super Saiyan!"

Piccolo charged at Android 17 ahead of Tien Shinhan, roaring angrily!

But the boy number seventeen didn't seem to care. He still had a smiling face. In mid-air, he turned around and kicked Piccolo away like a soccer ball!

Even after combining, Piccolo is surprisingly vulnerable!

At this point, Tien Shinhan naturally couldn't retreat. He gritted his teeth and stepped forward, trying to regain some advantage, but Android 17 appeared behind Tien Shinhan like a ghost.

Tien Shinhan, already sensing that something was terribly wrong, was no longer able to resist this sudden attack from behind.

I endured the pain as I felt the heavy kick from behind!

Seeing his friends who came to help him being treated this way, Vegeta mustered the last of his strength to try and help them!

However, Android 18 seemed unwilling to let Android 17's attack be interrupted. Just as Vegeta flew out, Android 18 grabbed Vegeta's ankle, spun him around again, and finally threw him out like a projectile!

"Ah!" Vegeta, who had been thrown out, saw that he was about to crash into the mountain again but had no strength left, so he had no choice but to endure the pain and crash into it.

One side of the mountain collapsed after being hit.

Krillin: "What!? How can he be so strong!?"

Android 16, who was watching the battle just like Krillin, showed no emotion whatsoever, as if it were none of her business!

He actually turned his head to look at Krillin, smiled, and then turned back to continue watching.

Seeing that everyone was no longer able to fight, Android 17 gave a signal, and Android 18 followed suit and flew towards Krillin's side.

This terrified Krillin. He actually said, "I won't lose to you guys, what incoherent talk!"

Number 18, hands on hips, seemed to really like that pose, while Number 17 had his arms crossed in front of his chest. He said, "Don't worry, they're all still alive, they're just too beaten to fight back."

He squinted and continued, "Quickly feed them Senzu Beans, that way they'll be back to normal quickly." Number Eighteen gazed at the sky, looking at it with disdain, as if nothing had happened.

Krillin was surprised to hear them mention Senzu Beans.

Number Seventeen continued, "Once their kung fu improves a bit more, you're welcome to challenge me and my sister again anytime!"

As he spoke, he was about to take Number 18 away.

Some time after they left, Number Eighteen asked, "Why didn't you ask them where Sun Wukong is?"

Number Seventeen said confidently, "Don't worry, isn't it more interesting to search with our own strength? Anyway, there are only a few people on this Earth who are really fun to be around."

"And if we cause a little trouble, maybe Sun Wukong will come looking for us himself!" Number Seventeen seemed quite satisfied with his plan!

Number 18 greeted everyone with a "bye!"

He pulled Number Seventeen along and said, "Let's go to a more lively place and buy some suitable clothes. That annoying guy just now covered me in dust, it was so awful!"

With that, he pulled Number Seventeen and Number Sixteen and flew towards the bustling city center.

Left alone, Krillin suddenly remembered: "Oh right, I need to hurry and save everyone."

Once he recovered, Krillin immediately leaped to the ground where everyone was lying motionless. Vegeta, whose two arms were broken, was the most seriously injured due to both physical and psychological damage. Trunks was knocked to the ground after being hit twice by Android 17, and Tien Shinhan and Piccolo were also knocked to the ground by a single blow and lost their ability to move.

"Hang in there, everyone!" Klin cried out in his mind.

Seeing that everyone was so injured, Krillin quickly took out the bag where he kept Senzu Beans.

Chapter 768 What awaits everyone?

"Let me check... there are still six Senzu Beans left." Krillin calculated seriously.

Krillin approached Tien Shinhan, turned him over from face down, and seeing that Tien Shinhan was already unconscious, said anxiously, "Hey! Wake up! Strike a pose!"

While shaking Tien Shinhan's body, he stuffed a Senzu Bean into it.

Upon feeling something in his mouth, his body instinctively began to chew. The previously weak Tien Shinhan instantly became alert as he chewed for longer.

Tien Shinhan looked at Krillin, who was supporting him, and seemed a little dazed. He said, "What happened to me? Why is everyone...?"

However, before he could finish speaking, he remembered what had happened to him and helped to feed everyone with Senzu Beans.

Bick, who was the first to recover, clenched his fists, as if he were adjusting his body.

Trunks, being a Super Saiyan, was mostly unharmed. However, seeing his sword lying beside him, now chipped in half, and recalling how Android 17 had blocked his powerful attack with her body and even shattered part of his sword, Trunks was deeply worried about the future. Android 17's terrifying physical strength and power were comparable to a monster.

After everyone had consumed the Senzu Beans and returned to their strongest state, they couldn't help but talk about the battle.

"What!? They even know we possess Senzu Beans!?" Piccolo exclaimed, sweating profusely. He was even more incredulous upon learning that Krillin had only reacted after being alerted by them.

"What on earth is going on? They knew we would recover, so why didn't they kill us then and there?!" Tien Shinhan couldn't understand the reason either.

Klin, looking completely bewildered, replied, "I don't know either, but that's roughly the gist of their conversation."

After listening to Krillin's explanation, Tien Shinhan incredulously uttered a speculation: "Do they think our lives or deaths are irrelevant to them?! They don't even care about us!"

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but be drenched in cold sweat of fear.

Having regained his physical strength, Vegeta stood atop a mountain, gazing into the distance. It seemed that his recent defeat, his own utter vulnerability, had left him with a deep sense of...

Piccolo spoke the truth that everyone had known but dared not face: "Of course, they are incredibly powerful, almost beyond imagination. It's truly unbelievable that anyone could be that strong." Although he was reluctant to admit it, it was the truth!

Vegeta knew this, of course, but he still couldn't believe he'd been knocked out like that! Thinking about the battle just now, he couldn't help but clench his teeth tightly.

Vegeta couldn't bear to remain like this, so he angrily leaped into the air. The powerful gust of air stirred up layers of dust from the spot where he had just been standing!

Trunks wanted to go after him and say something, but Piccolo stopped him, shaking his head and saying, "Let him be alone for a while. When Vegeta transformed into a Super Saiyan, he regained his absolute confidence and self-esteem, but now he's been trampled into a complete defeat. It's no wonder he's so desperate!"

Trunks thought about it and realized that his own father couldn't possibly tolerate such a thing...

Regardless of what Vegeta seemed to be venting, wanting to rush into the sky to release all the humiliation in his heart.

Yes, he failed! And he lost to someone, and to a woman no less—what a humiliation! The blow to Vegeta must have been devastating.

Tien Shinhan, head bowed, said, "But I never expected that when we attacked as a group, we were defeated in one fell swoop."

Klin apologized further, saying, "I'm sorry, my legs went weak with fear, and I didn't join the fight against them!" He lowered his head even further.

Piccolo comforted him, "Don't worry about it. Even Trunks, in his Super Saiyan form, was defeated in one blow. It's understandable to feel intimidated by enemies like that! Even with you added to the mix, it wouldn't make a difference; we still couldn't defeat them."

Krillin: "Damn it, if Goku weren't like this because of his heart condition..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tien Shinhan looked up and said, "Trunks is the kind of guy who can cut a member of the Frieza family in two with a single slash, but he didn't even have a chance to fight when he encountered an Android... To be honest, no matter how powerful Gokarot is, he's at most like Vegeta or Trunks—he can't win, absolutely can't win! Even if Gokarot came, it wouldn't make a difference!"

Tien Shinhan became more and more excited as he spoke, and his emotions suddenly surged. Perhaps the psychological impact on everyone this time was just too strong!

Although Tien Shinhan's words boosted the morale of others while diminishing his own, that's just how it should be!

After his defeat, Trunks said in a low voice, "This is really strange. They seem to be somewhat different from the androids I know."

This caught Piccolo's attention: "What did you say!?" Piccolo stepped forward, as if he wanted to hear Trunks's words carefully.

Trunks: "The androids I know from the future are indeed very powerful, but not as powerful as what we just saw. I remember in the future, I could fight one of them one-on-one, and although I couldn't win, I was still invincible. Something must have happened that I don't know about! And what's going on with that strange android Number Sixteen?!"

Trunks seemed to be deeply entangled in a mystery at this moment!

Piccolo said, "In short, our future is very dangerous. What do you plan to do next? I think we should go find Kakarot first."

As for how to fight against the androids in the future, we'll talk about that later!

Chapter 769 Gods and Demon Kings!

Bick appeared calm and composed on the surface.

But inside, her heart was in turmoil. Her nails, deeply embedded in her palms, had begun to bleed.

It is intolerable; we absolutely cannot live such a humiliating life.

Suddenly, as if unable to contain his emotions, Bick let out a loud shout.

"Get out of my way, all of you!" Piccolo shouted angrily.

This really startled Krillin and Tien Shinhan, who were standing nearby.

Krillin turned around and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Piccolo, are you alright?"

But it seemed that Bick didn't hear his concern.

Bick continued coldly, "Do you really think I'm your friend? You're too naive. I'm only on your side now to prepare for conquering the world. You're all just my subordinates!"

After saying that, he seemed to have gone mad.
