Chapter 919: Loyalty from the Heart, Abbreviated as Following One's Heart

The Hero Association's people couldn't stop Broly from taking off in the spaceship, and even the Dark Matter Pirates members who had just been captured were packed up and taken away together.

"However, what the people on the Association's side said isn't without reason. If you take this spaceship to the skies above B-City, and that alien octopus suddenly orders it to fire on B-City, the firepower of this spaceship's shells would be enough to destroy the city in a short time."

"How could I possibly do such a thing, Mr. Saitama? Since Lord Boros entrusted the spaceship to the new captain, as the spaceship's butler, I will devote myself wholeheartedly to the new captain, Lord Broly. How could I possibly let the spaceship fire and destroy this planet's cities?"

"Even if you won't destroy the city, secretly stealing the spaceship and fleeing is still possible."

"How could that be, Mr. Saitama? Look into my sincere eyes. Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"Your eyes don't even have pupils. How could I tell? But your subordinate next to you has sweat beading on his forehead; he looks guilty."

Geryuganshoop turned back to see his guilty-looking subordinate, and his heart jumped violently.

"Mr. Saitama, you misunderstand. This guy's survival environment requires sufficient moisture. This is a moist protective layer generated by his body's instinct. It's absolutely not a sign of him sweating from guilt."

Geryuganshoop explained.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes. I've always been like this."

The alien who looked like a snail also nodded repeatedly, saying the sweat was innate, while Saitama looked at this guy with a doubtful gaze.

"It's fine, Saitama. I'll send you home later. After I fly the spaceship back to B-City, I'll have Geryuganshoop stay on the spaceship to watch over the others. If anyone dares to attack B-City, I'll twist their heads off."

"Lord Broly, we wouldn't dare."

"You don't need to make any guarantees to me. I usually only look at people's actual actions."

"How about I stay on the spaceship and help you watch over it?"

"?"

"After all, I was the one who said that taking the spaceship means bearing part of the property damage it caused in A-City. If this guy really steals the spaceship and runs off, leaving you to bear all that debt for no reason, I'd feel uneasy."

"You're quite responsible, but I can handle this kind of small matter myself. There's no need for you to stay on the spaceship specifically to watch over it, Geryuganshoop—"

"Ah, Lord Broly, I'm here."

"I need you to understand my abilities a bit before you consider whether to fly the spaceship away and run off."

"Ah, I've never thought—"

"It's fine. Even if you think about such things in your head, I can understand. But if you actually do it, you'll have to pay the corresponding price."

"After all, for this spaceship and you, the original members of the spaceship, I've also borne a considerable debt and used my own hero reputation as a guarantee, guaranteeing that you alien guests won't cause any more trouble."

"Alright, let me tell you about some of my abilities. First, I can remember other people's life breath and use that life breath to determine a person's coordinate location."

"Second, my perception range for life breath is very large. How large? Roughly, even if you pilot the spaceship away from this star system, I can still find your location."

"Finally, I possess a super-long-range energy attack method. This attack method might not be as precise as physical attack methods within a planet."

"But in the vacuum universe, this attack method is fast and accurate. Even across half a star system, it can hit a target the size of this spaceship."

"As for power, I guarantee I can turn this spaceship into the smallest dust in the universe. Geryuganshoop, do you believe my words?"

"I believe, I believe, Lord Broly. Please quickly put away that dangerous thing at your fingertip!"

The energy bullet highly condensed at Broly's fingertip, in Geryuganshoop's spiritual power perception, was like a terrifying bomb that could blow itself up at any moment, full of danger.

"You'll watch over this spaceship for me, right?"

After sending Saitama back to Z-City, the spaceship flew to the skies above B-City, hovering at high altitude above the lake next to the villa Broly bought. Before getting off, Broly asked Geryuganshoop.

"Of course, Lord Broly. Whoever wants to sail the ship and run away, I, Geryuganshoop, will be the first not to let them off."

The alien octopus guaranteed sincerely.

"Mm."

Broly nodded, and instead of doubting those he employed, he handed the management rights of the spaceship back to this second-in-command of the original spaceship who had only pledged allegiance today.

"Lord Geryuganshoop, the monsters on this planet are all gone. Should we take the opportunity to fly the spaceship and run away?"

That night, some spaceship members came to ask him.

"Bastard. I, Geryuganshoop, am unswervingly loyal to Lord Broly. You actually want me to fly the spaceship and run away? Take this commemorative power whip!"

The crew member who came to ask, unsurprisingly, was harshly taught a lesson by Geryuganshoop.

"Broly, you said you brought back what?"

"A spaceship."

"Where is it?"

"See, that black mass like a cloud next to the moon."

Fubuki looked in the direction Broly's finger pointed, toward the moon outside the window above, and indeed saw that black mass suspended motionless in the sky.

"But Broly Teacher, weren't you at the Hero Association Headquarters for a meeting today? Where did you bring this spaceship back from?"

Vivian also looked out the window at the moon in the sky and asked somewhat surprised.

"The thing is like this—"

Broly talked on and on, directly telling the three girls at home everything he had experienced at the Hero Association today.

"I know this world has monsters and people from other worlds, but I didn't expect there to even be people from space."

Vivian was somewhat amazed.

"Wait, people from other worlds? What is that?"

Hell's Blizzard interjected to ask.

Vivian looked at her somewhat surprised, then only then belatedly reacted.

"Right, Fubuki Sister, you don't know yet. Broly Teacher is a person from another world."

"Why do I feel both unexpected and yet reasonable?!"

Hell's Blizzard started retorting.

"Uh, I forgot to tell you this. Fubuki, you don't mind, right?"

"No wonder you have multiple tails. What's there to mind?"

"They're from another world, after all — it's not like they don't look human."

"Besides, Broly, you're actually quite to my aesthetic taste."

Hell's Blizzard shrugged her shoulders.

"Compared to that, you said my older sister encountered a strong enemy today — how did it go?"

"She won."

"What I mean is, how do you assess my older sister's strength?"

"Pretty strong."

"Then how much of a gap do you think there is between my current strength and hers?"

"Uh, this————"

"Broly, you don't need to worry about me being discouraged. I know I'm definitely still not as good as my sister right now. I just want to know how big the gap between me and her actually is."

"You and your sister are only a little apart."

"Be specific."

Broly made a 'two' gesture with his hand.

"Twenty-something combat strength?"

Hell's Blizzard's eyes brightened. After integrating into this home, she had also come to understand Broly's objective evaluation method and unit for quantifying a person's strength.

"No, I mean a double-digit gap. Your combat strength hasn't broken a hundred, but your sister's combat strength is at least at the level of breaking a thousand."

The expectant expression on Hell's Blizzard's face froze. She knew the strength gap between her and her real sister was large, but she hadn't expected it to be this large.

"Fubuki, you don't need to be discouraged either. If you work hard, you'll be able to catch up to your sister too."

Broly comforted her.

"That's right. I've already found the shortcut to getting stronger, while my sister's strength has stagnated. Sooner or later I'll surpass her!"

Hell's Blizzard looked at Broly, her gaze somewhat fervent. She came before Broly and directly squatted down, starting tonight's cultivation in advance.

Perhaps because she heard Tatsumaki's true strength, Hell's Blizzard was somewhat stimulated. Her performance tonight was exceptionally proactive.

"Fubuki, there's something I think I must discuss with you."

"What is it? You have to discuss it right now?"

Afterwards, Hell's Blizzard's whole body was limp and soft, not wanting to move a single bit.

"It's about your older sister Tatsumaki."

"Hm?"

""

Hell's Blizzard lifted her head slightly, pillowing it on the youth's sturdy arm, and looked at him in puzzlement from close range.

"I want to pursue your sister, just like I pursued you."

Broly confessed his thoughts.

"What?"

Hearing this, Hell's Blizzard's eyes widened, her expression considerably shocked, as if she couldn't believe what she'd heard.

"Why?"

"When I first met her today, I had the same feeling as when I first met you. (Capture target acknowledged by the Crystal Palace)"

Hell's Blizzard opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say. Her sister was merely like a child who never grew up, but she wasn't ugly.

Broly could be moved by her, so being moved by her sister who shared many similarities with her, just with a more childlike physique, didn't seem all that surprising either.

"Have you decided?"

"I want to decide, but your relationship with your sister is rather special. I feel I must take your feelings into account, Fubuki."

"Then what if I firmly oppose you pursuing my sister?"

"You've already been confirmed as my future wife. Although I really want to pursue your sister, I'll care even more about your feelings. I'll give up on pursuing your sister."

Broly answered seriously, and Fubuki felt warmth in her heart listening to it.

When she was little, she was often taken and compared to her sister.

Naturally, what was compared was psychic power.

Obviously, she would always be labeled as 'the younger sister of the esper Tatsumaki.'

It seemed in outsiders' eyes, she was always inferior to her sister.

But now, she could feel that on Broly's side, her weight was heavier than her sister's.

"Cough, Fubuki Sister————"

"Hm, what is it?"

Hell's Blizzard looked at Vivian.

"Capturing a specific person is a very important matter for Broly Teacher. It can be said that Broly Teacher came to our world precisely because of this. So I hope you can also consider things for Broly Teacher."

Vivian played wingman. She could feel a fluffy tail brushing across her back.

This was Broly thanking her for her words. Of course, what Broly had just said to Fubuki was also true. There was still a huge gap in his heart between someone already confirmed as his wife and a capture target not yet confirmed. But directly giving up on a capture target he'd finally managed to encounter — he was also somewhat unwilling.

"That's right. Increasing the manpower numbers of our world is a very necessary matter."

Mosquito Girl also chimed in from the side.

"Hm?"

A puzzled look surfaced on Hell's Blizzard's face.

"Broly, can I tell her everything about the Crystal Palace?"

Mosquito Girl looked at Broly.

"Mhm."

Broly nodded; this was something Fubuki would have to know sooner or later.

Through Mosquito Girl's narration and Broly's supplementary explanation, Hell's Blizzard came to understand the situation of the Crystal Palace.

"You actually already have this many wives?"

"Sorry, I concealed this matter."

"Not concealing it, saying it directly: Fubuki Sister, do you think you would agree to Broly Teacher's pursuit?

"

"That is true enough————"

"So, knowing there are other worlds, and that so many strong opponents are waiting for us, what is your decision?"

Mosquito Girl asked.

"I agree to increasing the manpower quantity of this world of ours, but if the addition is my sister, I don't think it would be a good choice.

After all, my sister is willful, headstrong, and an excessively self-centered person; a guy with that kind of personality is not easy to get along with like me, let alone making her agree to sharing a husband with other women————"

"But the capture targets in this world, besides you, there is only her."

Broly was also somewhat helpless.

"So, I won't oppose you pursuing my sister, just reminding you, my sister is not that easy to pursue."

"As long as you don't oppose."

Broly set his mind at ease; what he feared most was Fubuki's adamant opposition.

【If that sister full of pride, in front of me, were bullied by Broly, showing an unsightly appearance————】

Hell's Blizzard imagined that scene, and her breathing became somewhat rapid; she unexpectedly felt a stir of heart. That little ghost of a sister who arbitrarily interfered with her life — if she could be taught a harsh lesson, that truly would be nothing better.

"Want me to help?"

", you are willing to help?"

"My sister always used to interfere with my life, making me lose the right to make friends; then I will interfere with her life, making her lose the right to choose a mate.

At that time, Broly, I want you in front of me to give her a good look, help me bully her hard, best to bully her until she cries!"

Broly: "Fubuki Sister, your lingering resentment toward your sister is a bit too deep, isn't it?"

"Do you know how my psychic power awakened?"

"Uh, how did it awaken?"

"When I was five years old, I was playing at home, that guy suddenly broke in through the window, and without me having any impression of her at all, she unilaterally announced to me that she is my biological older sister, and I am her biological younger sister————"

"Uh, even if your sister forcefully intervened in your life, it shouldn't be to that point, right?"

"The problem is, afterward she still, right in front of me, used psychic power to grind some people who came because of her into minced flesh and blood, and at that time I was five years old; that kind of bloody, cruel scene was practically my childhood shadow, yet that guy acted like it was nothing, completely not feeling my fear of her, reaching out with blood-stained hands wanting to touch me; it was under fear of her that I awakened my psychic power————"

The childhood information Hell's Blizzard voluntarily revealed let the three of them, Broly included, understand even more clearly one of the reasons why she holds such a deep prejudice against her biological sister, Tatsumaki.
