Time passed minute by minute.
Bulma maneuvered the spaceship several times, narrowly escaping the encirclement of Cooler's Armored Squadron.
But gradually, they were surrounded. After all, compared to the North Area, the West Area was almost entirely under Cooler's control.
Escaping under Cooler's nose was nearly impossible.
Fortunately, Son Goku, who had been unconscious, finally woke up.
"Great! Goku, you're finally awake!"
Seeing Son Goku wake up, Bulma felt a huge weight lift off her shoulders.
Without Son Goku, Bulma had been on edge every day.
"Bulma! It's okay now! Let's find a suitable planet to land on."
Son Goku spoke with a smile, feeling the immense power surging within his body— a power he had never possessed before.
"Okay, okay!" Bulma instinctively responded but quickly realized something.
"Goku, are you crazy? There are over twenty spaceships chasing us, all from Cooler's Armored Squadron. They're really strong."
Her anxious words rang out, but before she could finish,
"Don't worry, Bulma. I'm much stronger now." Son Goku spoke with a smile, his eyes filled with excitement at the prospect of facing a powerful enemy.
Under Son Goku's insistence, their spaceship soon arrived at the nearest desolate planet. This was an unnamed planet in the eastern part of the West Area.
As Son Goku arrived, the spaceships of Cooler's Armored Squadron that were pursuing him also quickly reached the planet.
A moment later, an earth-shattering battle erupted on this unnamed planet.
Powerful energy surged as Son Goku displayed a Battle Power exceeding fifty thousand points.
With the Great Ape transformation, Salza and the entire elite Armored Squadron he led were wiped out.
Yes, it was completely wiped out.
Even Salza was unable to escape from this planet.
Although Son Goku's Battle Power had reached fifty thousand points, as a low-class warrior, he lost his rationality after transforming into a Great Ape.
In the end, the entire planet was nearly destroyed.
It was only thanks to Bulma using the spaceship's weapons to shatter the moon that they avoided being buried along with the entire planet.
Of course, Cooler was unaware of all this.
With Salza and an elite mech squadron annihilated, Cooler was undoubtedly consumed by rage.
This was the first time someone had so openly challenged his authority in the West Area.
It was simply intolerable.
"Bang!"
"Useless."
"How could they be killed by a wild monkey!"
Inside the massive spaceship, Cooler's face was dark with anger.
The other members of the Cooler Armored Squadron trembled in fear, not daring to look up.
At this moment, they could all feel the terrifying aura emanating from Cooler.
Clearly, Cooler was in an unparalleled rage.
"Dore, Neiz!" A low voice came from Cooler's mouth.
"At your service!"
"At your service!"
Hearing Cooler's words, two figures respectfully responded.
These were two peculiar aliens: one resembling an amphibious evolved species with exceptionally soft skin and bones, and the other possessing a robust physique entirely made of green skin. They were Dore and Neiz, the other two captains of the Cooler Armored Squadron, both stronger than Salza, with Dore's strength reaching eighteen thousand.
"Send my orders: all members of the Cooler Armored Squadron are to capture that damn Saiyan."
"You will personally take action."
"Upon discovering that damn Saiyan, immediately inform this king."
Cooler spoke in a deep voice, swiftly issuing commands.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Dore and Neiz responded respectfully, not daring to show any signs of negligence.
Soon, the massive Cooler Armored Squadron was mobilized.
This time, it was not just dozens of spaceships but hundreds, even thousands of spaceships.
The vast Cooler army surrounded Son Goku.
Cooler was genuinely furious this time. He had to eliminate Son Goku to quell his anger.
However, just as he mobilized all his power to surround Son Goku, the spaceship that Son Goku was aboard had already plunged into the North Area.
This was not because Son Goku was fleeing, but because after transforming into a Great Ape, he fell unconscious again.
Bulma was the one piloting the spaceship. Faced with the imminent threat of another attack from the Cooler Armored Squadron, Bulma's first reaction was, of course, to continue fleeing.
However, her plunge into the North Area immediately posed a dilemma for the Cooler Armored Squadron. After all, the North Area was Frieza's territory.
They dared not recklessly enter.
…
"Damn it, that guy has entered the North Area!"
"That's Frieza Sama's territory!"
"Damn it!"
"Bastard!"
Angry voices erupted within the spaceship. Faced with this situation, Dore and Neiz could only quickly report the news to Cooler.
"Bang!"
"All of you are useless!"
"Get me connected to Frieza!"
Cooler's voice rang out with irritation. The figures around him trembled in fear. However, they quickly established a connection with Frieza.
"Ohohoho, my dear brother, what brings you to contact me at this time?" A huge virtual screen lit up, and Frieza, riding his hover pod, appeared with a smile as he looked at Cooler.
"Frieza, you are truly foolish. How many wild monkeys have you let slip through?" Cooler's voice was filled with a cold snort.
"Ohohoho, my dear brother, I heard that your territory was attacked by a wild monkey. Are you taking it out on your dear brother now?" Frieza's smile grew even wider, but his words made Cooler's eyebrow twitch uncontrollably.
"Hmph! Frieza, cut the nonsense. My men need to enter the North Area. Cooperate with me to capture that wild monkey." Cooler snorted coldly, then spoke in a serious tone.
"Of course, I'd be more than happy to assist my dear brother. My dear brother, should I send the Ginyu Force to help you?" Frieza's smile grew even more pronounced.
"No need! Frieza, this is about cleaning up your mess. All you need to do is allow my men to enter the North Area." Cooler snorted again.
With that, the conversation between the two ended.
As Frieza and Cooler finished their discussion, the Cooler Armored Squadron immediately stepped into the North Area.
However, it was clear that during their delay, finding Son Goku and Bulma had become much more difficult.
Although they couldn't find Son Goku and Bulma, their actions had caused an uproar throughout the entire North Area.
"Trouble!"
"Trouble!"
"This is a huge problem now."
On North Kaiō's planet, North Kaiō paced back and forth with sweat dripping from his forehead.
Cooler's arrival was something he had never anticipated.
The appearance of this figure would undoubtedly bring even more chaos to the North Area. For some reason, North Kaiō had a feeling that something major was about to happen in the North Area.
As a spiritual god, his intuition was not without reason. It was likely a premonition of what was to come. And for him, the North Kaiō, this was not good news.
North Kaiō continued to pace, sweat pouring down his forehead. At the same time, the Galactic Patrol headquarters was also in a state of nervousness.
The Galactic Patrol headquarters, which had just begun to settle down, was thrown into chaos once again as the Cooler Armored Squadron entered.
All the first-class patrolmen were quickly summoned back. Even Raditz and others were recalled. In addition, other independent forces in the North Area, separate from Frieza's army, were also thrown into unease.
The Cooler Armored Squadron had never set foot in the North Area before. Their sudden arrival made people instinctively wonder if Frieza and Cooler had joined forces to completely wipe out the remaining powers in the North Area.
After all, this seemed highly possible. Cooler was Frieza's older brother. Their alliance was not something out of the ordinary. For a time, the entire North Area was filled with anxiety and nervousness.
Seven days later.
Galactic Patrol headquarters.
Raditz, Toma, Celipa, Toteppo, and Panbukin all returned. In addition, more than a dozen other first-class patrolmen from the Galactic Patrol also arrived at the headquarters.
"Raditz, what's going on?" Celipa spoke, her gaze fixed on Raditz.
"It's said that the Cooler Armored Squadron has entered the North Area, and there's a possibility they might join forces with Frieza," Raditz spoke with a solemn tone after a moment of contemplation.
"The Cooler Armored Squadron!" Hearing Raditz's words, Celipa and the other' pupils' dilated, and their breathing instantly became heavier.
As former elites of Planet Vegeta, Celipa and the others were well aware of the Cooler Armored Squadron.
After all, this force originally belonged to King Cold and was later inherited by Cooler. Compared to the Ginyu Special Battle Squadron, the Cooler Armored Squadron was undoubtedly stronger. Back then, King Cold had handed the North Area to Frieza, but gave his most elite troops to Cooler, allowing him to conquer the West Area.
