62 Saiyans (1/2)

Word went around that the former champion and the savior of Perditus came back from his journey. Rize was one of the first Saiyans that heard of Broly's return from a subordinate. It was reported that Broly had humiliated his son in front of a crowd, going so far to make him piss himself in public. Rize was of course furious when he heard about it. He wanted to take revenge, but he knew that no one was able to harm Broly or his friends. Rize thought using politics to pressure or put restrictions on him would be of no effect.

Going by the attics Broly showed in the war, it wouldn't be farfetched if Broly killed him in a fit of rage. Rize needed to play this carefully, he needed to wait until Broly and his team went through the rift and then disrupt the space inside. Best-case scenario would be Broly's death, worst-case would be that he wouldn't be able to return. Either way with Broly and company out of the way, he would be able to take over and rule this planet.

*****

A few days passed until Rize heard about some leaked information. It appears that Broly and his crew, as well as a bunch of other Saiyans would be traveling into the rift tomorrow. They haven't released the news yet as they didn't want the others to get there hopes up yet.

Rize knew that if he wanted Broly to be gone for good he needed to disrupt the space moments after they entered or else he would have crossed the rift unharmed. Even if Broly managed to survive by crossing it, it would at least give him years, until they found a way back in, to come up with a counterplan.

The next day a spaceship shot into the air to space, Rize saw this and immediately send the strongest ones, he had a deal with, up with his own spaceship. Although it wasn't as fast as other spaceships, it was able to conceal itself which fitted this mission perfectly.

He looked into the direction Broly's spaceship flew.

”So, what if you are the Legendary Super Saiyan? I will rule this planet!”

A few hours later the group he sent, reported back that they accomplished their mission and would be heading back.

Rize started laughing manically and ordered his troops to start their revolt. He was euphoric about the prospect that he would soon be the new king. He only needed to kill Gine and Daz, as they were the most invested in the ideas of leaving this planet. He wasn't confident to convince them to come over his side. But after he disposed of them, no one then would be able to stop him.

With his elite team and all his hidden allies following him, they first headed towards Daz' dojo, as Daz would usually train the next generation at this time. It was the perfect place to start his new rule, with the next generation as his witness.

”Daz your time has come. But don't worry it would only be a painful death!” He said aloud as he entered the room.

He swung open the door and froze at the entrance. He looked stupid frozen in place with his mouth wide open.

”This is im-impossible!”

What greeted him were hundreds of Saiyans. The room was big as it was usually used for fighting. It could easily hold a few hundred people without making it seem too crowded.

The dojo was a bit offside, so he wasn't able to know that most including Gine and Daz had gathered, but this wasn't why he was shocked.

It was because of the trio in the middle that stared at him. Broly had a sneer on his face as he waited to let the shock sink in. He was back in his iconic clothes as he majestically stood there, looking down on Rize.

”You are supposed to be in the rift! They said-”

”Well, with how weak-willed they were, it was easy to force them to say a few words.”

Rize knew that this wouldn't end well if he stayed. He looked around to find a way to escape. He saw that the crowd didn't seem to be filled in with everything.

Before he could do anything with it, Broly appeared in front of him and grabbed him by the neck like chicken and lifted him up. Cana as if teleporting emerged behind the group that followed Rize and blocked the entrance.

Broly still held Rize by the neck as he moved towards the center of the room. He looked around and waited until the crowd calmed down.

”You probably don't know what Rize's plan was. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that I and my team went inside a rift and disturb the space inside, essentially trying to kill or at least lock me out. He tried to do so because he wanted to rule this planet but feared me.”

The crowd exclaimed after hearing this and hushed whispers resounded out in the crowd.
