While Naruto was making his moves and Goku was wishing for saiyan powers for his wife, in the vastness of space evil was lurking and moving towards them.

In another solar system, one could see a giant tree that was planted one of one of the planets and it had drained the energy from it.

This was called the Tree of Might, a copy of the Shinju used by the Otsutsuki. It functioned in a similar manner as it devoured the life force of a planet that had living beings and produce fruits that increased the powers of the user.

The difference was in quality as the fruit of might didn't give much of an increase in power and gave no special abilities like the Chakra fruit.

It was made by the Cold Empire and they were still working on it to get similar results as the Shinju and even improve it.

The process was difficult because they couldn't capture the Shinju tree unless they wanted to prove the Otsutsuki clan. It was a clan that took loyalty seriously and it absolutely despised people who dared touch their things.

An attack by them was very dangerous for an Empire especially because of their parasitic ability, these monsters were immortal and they would possess the person that killed them.

The tree was used by the members of the Freeza Army that showed potential to become elites, on planets that were deemed useless, meaning they had given no reason for Freeza to let them live.

These planets had species with no special ability or any grand intelligence worth cultivating so they were used as feed for his future elites.

The fruit didn't work much once someone got to the large planet level so they were working on seeing if they could make the tree absorb the life force of a star, so that even elites could eat it.

On this large tree that extended beyond the atmosphere of the planet, Turles was sitting on one of the branches as he ate the fruit.

He was Bardock's eldest son and looked exactly like him but with a dark skin tone, and red eyes. He had been infused with demonic DNA when his thirst for power led him into conflict with demonic species.

He realized that he could utilize the power of despair and all kinds of negative emotions to boost his power, if he got his hands on it.

As such he murdered several demonic species and had his scientific work on a way to infuse him with their powers.

It was successful and had amplified his dark d.e.s.i.r.es.

At the moment he worked under King Vegeta as one of his Elite but he planned to take over the throne once he had surpassed Vegeta.

The king was merciless, cunning, patient, smart, wise and of course very powerful. His King could destroy large planets with a single move while he could barely destroy a mid grade planet.

Power alone wasn't anything either as the real powerful people in the Universe were masters of unique abilities like existence erasure, matter manipulation, reality warping, illusions, space, gravity, time, Void, Power cosmic and what not.

He had worked hard on covering up this hole in his powers since most saiyans only focused on pure power leaving out this step from their plans.

Taken from the demons, Turles had the power to affect the emotions of others and cause corruption. He could make people fall into despair and all this would boost his powers.

It wasn't the only thing as he was equipped with one of the most powerful armors available to his race as he was directly under Vegeta.

The armor provided him with greater durability and even boosted his Ki performance while giving him resistance against all kinds of attacks.

Turles was a merciless, prideful and confident individual. His cruel treatment of other life was proof enough that he cares little to nothing for others and even after learning of Raditz death, he had only laughed.

Turles had a firm grasp on what was good and evil, yet he doesn't even care about it. He only thought in the ways of puppet master, if a puppet was useless then it didn't matter what happened to it.

Raditz had been by his side since he graduated, meaning he came back from the planet where he had been sent and conquered it.

The little brother wasn't talented and he didn't improve by much through battles. The saiyan had the bloodline effect of improving through battle but it depended on their fighting spirits and will power. If the saiyan showed fear and a weak spirit, the power would barely increase. It was the case with majority of the saiyans as not everyone could face death with a smile, it required an iron will.

It was the same case for all ranks of their race so it didn't matter whether you were born low class or elite.

Turles had laughed in the face of death many times while his brother had cowered in front of it, pissing himself in extremely dangerous situations. It was the reason the useless sc.u.m was barely above moon level, not even better than the bloody Saibaman.

It was the shame of their race that those things existed and they were equal to the power of their low class saiyan warriors.

Regardless, the death of his slave was an insult to him. It also meant that his younger brother might be more useful, so he intended to give him a chance to join him and build a powerful legacy.

Turles wasn't a mindless brute and knew when to use violence and when to use diplomacy. Looking at the ruined landscape of the planet beneath him, he felt happy.

He had grown to appreciate such scenery over the years as it signified that he was getting closer to his goals.

"Lord Turles, we are done with planet." His right hand man informed him. The man was another saiyan called Daiz. He sported a punk-rock look, had dark teal hair with a ponytail, wears earrings, and a jewelry necklace.

He was a good looking man and the second strongest person on the team, the third being another saiyan called Amond.

His team didn't just consist of Saiyans as he had scientist from the Beenz race, a race of ultra-intelligent humanoid aliens of short statue and purple skin tone. He had two members from this race to help him with all his needs.

And the final member of his kill squad was a cyborg from Ikonda. It was humanoid species with pinkish skin and long life. They had regenerative abilities and could transform into anything they wanted. The Ikonda in his service was a cyborg with high class weaponry to enhance his powers.

There were the warriors that had managed to survive by his side and he valued them deeply, he had cultivated them and bonded with them.

They were not his pawns but his bishops and rooks. His Queen was called Nion, one of the royal scientists under Vegeta. She was old as his mother but the saiyan race aged very slowly and Turles was charmed by her intellect and twisted personality while she loved his power and personality.

With this team he had been improving and Nion had given him assistance at many points of life while he also helped her with her research when needed.

"Tell the rest, we are leaving. We are going to meet my little brother, so tell them to get ready for a rough welcome." Turles said as he stood up

"Heh, the boys are looking forward to some action this time."

"You are speaking like you haven't complained about it."

"Hehehe, every one of us needs some action from time to time or we will grow up as useless flowers." Daiz chuckled and spoke in a casual manner as he backed away.

"I will keep that in mind for our next target." Turles muttered as he took activated his wrist device that connected to the main system of the Cold Empire.

He checked for the news and any good missions for the warriors in the Empire's service. The elite soldiers like them could roam freely and take missions like this or get direct missions from a superior.

Turles could even summon an army if he so wished as he was a high ranking officer.

'Lord Freeze got into another fight with one of the Heralds of Galactus, outcome unknown and solar system erased.' Turles saw the headline and felt his blood boil with hatred at the man that had killed his parents.

The monster with such impossible power that made all of them looked like ants, 'If only the legend was true. If only, I could just achieve it. I would crush the sc.u.m under my feet and feed him to the worms.'

He was evil but that didn't mean Turles didn't love his parents, he was a little boy when he had seen the video of them killed by the royal knight.

Every day he dreamed of killing the Knight and the master, it was the hatred and greed for power that pulled him through all difficulties.

Seeing that there was nothing else, Turles hoped that he could use the time acceleration device once he got back from this mission. He had collected enough material to train inside properly.

He had also finished his quota for the fruits already and when he got back, he intended to use the gravity device inside the time acceleration chamber to train to a higher level since he needed proper training to stabilize the power gained from the fruit and he didn't to waste a year for it.
