Chapter 324: Finding Targets
No matter how perfectly these Gunhuo Star aliens planned, they now had no way out. Watching Uchiha Feiyu descend from the sky, the Gunhuo Star people looked ferocious, and all of them charged forward.
"A Power Level of just over 2,000... No wonder you have to rely on a robot army. It seems your biological modification technology is only used to create cannon fodder; you aren't very skilled at creating powerhouses!"
Uchiha Feiyu glanced at these Gunhuo Star people and reached a conclusion. The occasional few with higher Power Levels, roughly several thousand to tens of thousands, had basically all undergone some form of mechanical modification.
The most powerful one among them was the Gunhuo Star person standing at the very front, whose entire body—except for his head—was encased in armor; even that head was covered by a type of transparent metal glass and placed on the chest of the armor—this was less of a biological organism and more of a biological brain made for the armor.
Of course, having undergone this modification, this Gunhuo Star person's strength was indeed outstanding. Uchiha Feiyu just pressed the Battle Power Tester, and a Power Level as high as over 100,000 popped up.
... Then Uchiha Feiyu moved his finger slightly, and a Dodon Ray blasted the strongest of these Gunhuo Star people into smithereens.
The Gunhuo Star people, who had originally been shouting about fighting to the death, quickly calmed down. When it came down to it, although they had a name as imposing as "Gunhuo Star," these people should actually be classified as scientists, not soldiers, so naturally, they had no intention of fighting to the death.
Seeing that their strongest one had been completely defeated, these Gunhuo Star people didn't say a word, knelt on the ground, and raised their hands in surrender:
"Spare us! We surrender!"
"Our inventions are still very useful to Lord Frieza, please spare our lives, my lord!"
"My lord, I am the most useful; I am the chief engineer of the mechanical army project..."
"Fine, give me a copy of all the biological research data, and I will spare your lives."
Uchiha Feiyu glanced at these people and said indifferently.
Gunhuo Star is very large, but the aliens living on this Gunhuo Star only added up to a little over a thousand people.
Logically speaking, the number of people a planet can support is far more than just this. As for whether the remaining people all died due to the civil war on Gunhuo Star, or ran off to other planets, Uchiha Feiyu didn't really care.
Thus, Uchiha Feiyu escorted a group of Gunhuo Star people back to Frieza's space mothership. Faced with Frieza, the captain of the universe's strongest demolition team, these arms dealers also bowed their heads without a word.
Frieza remained calm on the surface, smiling as he accepted the surrender of these arms dealers, but turned his head and had his scientists install a micro-bomb in the head of each of these arms dealers.
All these actions did not escape his few personal guards and Uchiha Feiyu. After making the arrangements, this Universal Emperor smiled and said to Uchiha Feiyu:
"These scientists are basically untrustworthy. They are completely different from our warrior race; we believe in strength, while they always think they can replicate our power through technology."
"So... the best method is to ensure they never have that chance! Once all the technology in their hands has been excavated, just send them on their way!"
"The Frieza Force only needs ordinary scientists who can produce cannon fodder. Those true, crazy technological geniuses will never be of one mind with us space warriors."
Uchiha Feiyu nodded slightly. It had to be said that although Frieza didn't like to train much and wasted his own potential, he saw the difference between scientists and warriors very clearly and thoroughly.
If Uchiha Feiyu were a pure warrior, he wouldn't like those crazy scientists either. After all, the rules of the Dragon Ball World are such that if these crazy scientists want to stir up trouble, the best way is to obtain the genes of powerful cosmic races.
And the more powerful a cosmic race is, the more they care about their own genes and the higher their self-esteem is. They certainly don't want their genes to appear in some hybrid biological weapon, or to become some kind of mass-produced clone weapon.
In fact, with current cosmic technology, mass-producing certain powerful clone space warriors is definitely not impossible, but the crazy scientists who dare to do so have basically been destroyed by those top-tier powerhouses.
Or rather, those crazy scientists' techniques aren't that great, and the clone warriors they create are just so-so. If they could create a super android like Cell the way Dr. Gero did, I reckon there would be nothing left for Frieza to do in this universe.
Unfortunately... Uchiha Feiyu is not a pure space warrior; he is also a cultivator. To him, the appearance of more powerhouses in the universe is actually a good thing, as that represents more sacrifices! However, he clearly would not hand over the data in his hands to other aliens. It wasn't that he had misgivings about this, but he knew very well that these cosmic scientists only had that much ability; if they really wanted to mess things up, it would still depend on our Earth's technology workers.
With Dr. Gero's level of genius, after obtaining various knowledge from the universe and custom-made scientific instruments, plus the biochemical knowledge Uchiha Feiyu gave him, he believed that in a few days, he would be able to create those androids with a Power Level exceeding 100,000.
By then, after killing more androids and accumulating enough Black Qi, it would be very easy to obtain more powerful cultivation arts.
Joining the Frieza Force didn't bring any changes to Uchiha Feiyu. For some reason, Frieza seemed very polite to Uchiha Feiyu, directly handing him the task list of the entire legion and letting him choose tasks to execute at will.
Even if he didn't execute any tasks, he could still enjoy all the rights of a Vice Commander of the entire Frieza Force. He could designate three planets occupied by the Frieza Force as his base at will, and could also select thousands of ordinary cannon fodder and a small squad of legion warriors with Power Levels in the tens of thousands as his direct subordinates.
Honestly, this kind of treatment was enough to make the veterans of the Frieza Force feel shocked. Although Frieza was indeed very generous to his subordinates, at the same time, he also emphasized that for every bit of merit, there is a bit of reward. Although Uchiha Feiyu participated in this battle of Gunhuo Star and made a huge contribution, no matter what, this treatment was a bit too extraordinary.
Of course, the Frieza Force is Frieza's own dictatorial domain, and coupled with Uchiha Feiyu's own terrifyingly strong Power Level, the ordinary warriors in the legion, even Frieza's right-hand men, didn't have the guts to say anything.
After all, no matter how gentle, polite, and well-mannered Frieza appeared on the surface, it couldn't change the rule of "survival of the fittest" for Frieza and the entire legion. If anyone dared to talk too much, even if they were killed in one move by Uchiha Feiyu, it would be absolutely justified.
Other aliens would only mock the provocateur for being stupid and weak, but would never think Uchiha Feiyu was wrong. In the Frieza Force, it can be said that strength represents everything, and Uchiha Feiyu possessed the strongest power in the entire legion, second only to Frieza.
Uchiha Feiyu accepted Frieza's generous treatment in its entirety. Although neither subordinates nor planets meant much to him, Uchiha Feiyu could include Earth, where he was born, into the sphere of influence of the Frieza Force.
In this way, not only would the Frieza Force not move against Earth, but as a planet controlled by the Frieza Force, other cosmic forces with a bit of insight would not dare to move against Earth, a planet with the Frieza Force label.
Earth is a true land of treasures; crazy scientists, Majin Buu, Dragon Ball... Heaven knows what kind of monsters could pop out of Earth. Even without considering that it was his hometown in this world, just to maintain stability, Uchiha Feiyu didn't want Earth to be disturbed.
However, Uchiha Feiyu himself did not return to Earth. He just discussed things with Dr. Gero on the Spaceship, handed over his gains from the universe to Dr. Gero, and then took the Frieza Force list to execute tasks.
Dr. Gero assured Uchiha Feiyu that with the knowledge he obtained from the universe, he only needed half a year to complete the creation of androids with a Power Level exceeding 100,000, and three years to turn the production process of these androids into an assembly line.
After receiving the news from Dr. Gero, Uchiha Feiyu just offered a few words of encouragement, then took out the task list Frieza gave him, picked out the tricky targets, and prepared to carry out the harvest.
Uchiha Feiyu originally thought that such powerhouses in the universe should be rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. After all, Frieza dared to call himself the Universal Emperor, making even the King Kai have a huge headache; how many people dared to resist? Then, when he saw the list, he was immediately filled with surprise:
"So many people, there are almost 300 people on this list, right? Are these all targets that the legion hasn't cleared out?"
Frieza chuckled: "Ho ho ho, no choice. Before you came, Feiyu, my subordinates didn't have any capable people, and I am quite lazy myself. Unless these people really come to my face to seek death, otherwise, I won't specifically go to hunt them down."
In fact, although the Frieza Force dominates the universe, it definitely cannot be called the sole power. The biggest reason for this is that Frieza, as the leader, and his subordinates formed a huge gap.
Like the Frieza Force, basically a Power Level of a little over a thousand can become a member, a Power Level of several thousand is the backbone, and a Power Level of ten thousand is the upper echelon. The most elite Ginyu Force is only between several tens of thousands to just over 100,000 in Power Level.
And how much Power Level does Frieza have? At his peak, it was 120 million! It is 1,000 times that of Captain Ginyu, who ranks second in strength in the Frieza Force! Naturally, in Frieza's eyes, bugs that are slightly troublesome are insurmountable, powerful enemies to everyone else in the Frieza Force, and yet in the entire universe, although such bugs are not countless, there are definitely quite a few of them.
A Power Level of over 100,000 is the standard for the guardian deities of top-tier forces in the universe. Excluding the unique Frieza Force, in the entire universe, there are at least eight hundred to a thousand remaining top-tier forces—no choice, the universe is just too big, and the powerful races and forces that emerge are just too many.
Under these circumstances, no ambitious person has the ability to rule the entire universe, just like ancient Earth without a technological revolution, no matter what, there could never be a dynasty capable of unifying the entire Earth—just passing on an order, the farthest places on Earth might take ten or twenty years to go back and forth; this kind of efficiency destined that a unified dynasty would have no chance.
At the same time, the universe is the same. The exchange of information between each other, environmental detection, and even the speed of spaceship travel, the different environments of planets, and different technology trees, all destined that this world could not have a strong person capable of unifying the universe; instead, it is mostly dominated by chaotic cosmic forces.
Even Frieza, this Universal Emperor, does business in mercenary work, real estate, and forced demolition. Do you think he really doesn't want to occupy all the planets? No, he just weighed the existing conditions and knew he couldn't do it.
"Then leave these to me. Mark the guys with a Power Level over 100,000, and I will personally kill them. As for the remaining targets under 100,000, let the Ginyu Force hunt them down slowly."
"Ho ho ho, that would really be a huge help to me! After all, although these guys can't provoke me, they are indeed a big threat to the other warriors of the Frieza Force. If a few tricky characters joined forces, even the Ginyu Force might be wiped out by them."
Frieza said with a smile, as if what Uchiha Feiyu did for him was really important.
But Uchiha Feiyu knew very well in his heart that the reason so many targets were left behind was simply because Frieza himself was a bit lazy and didn't want to deal with them, not because Frieza really couldn't handle them.
It can also be understood that Frieza didn't care at all—a group of guys with Power Levels of only over 100,000 to over a million, so what if they joined forces? At most, it would just make him throw two more energy blasts to kill the opponents.
Of course, what Uchiha Feiyu did certainly couldn't be said to be unimportant. Just as Frieza himself said, these guys were just annoying bugs to him, but to the ordinary warriors under his command, they were true living Yamas.
Uchiha Feiyu being willing to take action could be considered as solving a small trouble for Frieza, which could allow his Frieza Force to develop more smoothly.
As for Uchiha Feiyu, he was even happier. On the list, there were over a hundred powerhouses with confirmed intelligence and Power Levels exceeding 100,000, and these powerhouses were undoubtedly the best sacrifices.
