"Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand, so I think I'll just keep it to myself." Rez smiled, starlight flowing around him, making him look even more composed.
"Hmph, you jerk! How am I supposed to know if you don't tell me?" Vegeta glared at Rez indignantly, his small face flushed red.
"This is called Ultra Instinct," Rez replied simply.
"Ultra Instinct? What's that?" Vegeta looked confused and scratched his head. "You seem to have mentioned that name before!"
"See, I told you, you wouldn't know, right?" Rez smiled faintly, starlight dancing gently across his body.
Vegeta's face darkened, and he glared at Rez once more.
"Simply put, Ultra Instinct is a rather special skill. Once mastered, it grants immense power." Rez provided this elaboration.
"Immense power?" Vegeta blinked, subconsciously reaching up to press the Scouter on his eye.
"Pop!" With that motion, Vegeta poked his index finger directly into his temple, immediately wincing in pain.
"Ouch!" Vegeta clutched his temple, tears welling up from the pain.
At that moment, Vegeta suddenly remembered that his Scouter had long since overloaded and exploded; he had nothing there now.
"What... what is your power level now?" Vegeta asked hurriedly, ignoring the pain in his temple.
"I'm not sure myself." Rez shook his head, then turned his gaze toward Linoshi and asked, "What do you think it is, Linoshi?"
"That's... hard to say. If you forced a conversion to a power level, it would be at least 900 billion." Linoshi thought for a moment before giving her answer.
She spoke very seriously, blinking her blue eyes as if stating a simple fact.
"You, you, you... what kind of joke is that?" Vegeta's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, his voice trembling. "A power level of 900 billion!"
His mind went completely blank.
What kind of concept was 900 billion?
His proud 15,000 didn't even amount to a rounding error in the face of 900 billion.
"Y-yes." Linoshi lowered her head shyly and nodded softly, her fingers beginning to twist the hem of her battle suit again.
"Stop joking! How is that possible!" Vegeta expressed deep skepticism and shook his head vigorously.
900 billion—this was completely beyond the scope of his comprehension.
Rez ignored Vegeta, narrowing his eyes slightly as he gazed toward the direction outside the Training Room.
He keenly sensed another spaceship rapidly pursuing them.
However, that ship was extremely far from theirs; it would take at least another half an hour to catch up.
The aura wasn't too strong, but for Vegeta, it certainly wasn't weak.
"I must say, after training in Ultra Instinct, even my sensing range has increased." Rez sighed with deep emotion.
Before, he could only sense auras within a few hundred kilometers; now, that range had expanded by at least a billion-fold.
He could vaguely perceive the life force within the entire galaxy.
"That's true." Linoshi nodded gently, having also sensed the presence of the ship. "It must be Frieza's men again."
"The person this time... their power level isn't very high. It seems to be on par with Prince Vegeta." Rez smiled, his gaze falling on Vegeta.
"What are you two talking about? Did that guy Frieza send someone to chase us again?" Vegeta paused, then quickly ran to the spaceship window to take a look.
He pressed against the porthole, shielding his eyes with his hand as he peered intently into the distance.
As it turned out, Vegeta saw nothing. Outside the window lay only the vast starry sky, dotted with countless stars—deep and silent.
It would be a miracle if he could see anything. After all, Cui's spaceship was extremely far away; it was impossible to see with the naked eye.
"A guy with a power level of around 16,000." Rez quickly identified the opponent's power level, his tone relaxed.
"A power level of 16,000?" Vegeta frowned slightly and turned away from the porthole. "Could it be that guy named Cui?"
"Cui? Is it him?" Rez realized suddenly.
In Frieza's army, compared to Dodoria, Cui was a lower-tier figure. With a power level around 16,000, he was slick and sycophantic—not very capable, but certainly a big talker.
"Hmph, let me handle him!" Vegeta snorted coldly, his interest immediately piqued, his small face full of fighting spirit.
"His power level is 1,000 higher than yours. Are you sure you want to fight him?" Rez asked with a smile, his eyes filled with amusement.
"Hmph, it's only 1,000! He's definitely no match for me!" Vegeta smiled confidently, chin slightly raised, arms crossed.
A Saiyan's pride would not allow him to retreat. What was a mere difference of 1,000?
"Very well, find a planet and land." Rez issued the order.
Vegeta didn't object; he turned and ran to pilot the spaceship.
His small hands tapped rapidly on the control panel, setting a new course and searching for the nearest habitable planet.
However, just as Vegeta's hand changed the commands on the spaceship's operating system, he suddenly felt as if something wasn't quite right.
The next moment, Vegeta's hand stiffened, freezing in mid-air.
Then, Vegeta turned his head and glared at Rez, his small face flushed red.
"Rez, you jerk! I haven't even settled the score with you for knocking me out yet!" Vegeta clenched his fists tightly in anger.
"Prince Vegeta, are you sure you want to provoke someone with a power level of 900 billion?" Rez chuckled, a teasing smile appearing as the starlight around him flickered slightly.
Vegeta's mouth twitched, and his face instantly turned pale. Damn it! He'd almost forgotten such an important detail.
This guy's power level was far higher than his. Even if it wasn't 900 billion—even if it were only a million, he would still be no match for him!
"Hmph! Considering you're my teacher, I'll let it slide this time!" Although Vegeta acted cold, crossing his arms and holding his chin high, his words were clearly a concession.
Linoshi suppressed a laugh nearby, her shoulders trembling slightly, her blue eyes filled with amusement.
She suddenly found the little prince quite cute. His attitude when backing down was actually pretty good! It seemed he really had been beaten into submission by Rez.
"Whoosh!" The spaceship carved a brilliant trajectory through the starry sky, bright flames jetting from its stern as it sped toward a planet.
The starlight outside the window receded rapidly, stretching into long ribbons of light.
Five minutes later, the spaceship landed on a planet with an extremely harsh environment.
"Boom!" The spaceship's landing gear touched the ground, kicking up a sky full of yellow sand.
The three of them stepped off the ship.
This planet's environment was indeed unpleasant; yellow sand swirled everywhere, and the air was filled with a stench like rotting plants mixed with sulfur.
A fierce wind howled, whipping up sand and gravel that pelted the hull of the ship, creating a crackling sound.
