The Headquarters of the Heeters

The complete annihilation of the Ginyu Force would not be noticed by Frieza for a short while.

After all, Frieza wouldn't have nothing better to do than to keep tabs on what the Ginyu Force was up to every day, and the Ginyu Force typically didn't check in with others on a daily basis either.

It would probably take a long time before anyone realized that the Ginyu Force had gone missing, either because they hadn't been in contact for an extended period or because Frieza couldn't reach them when he needed to.

After eliminating the Ginyu Force, Zuke contacted Bardock—fortunately, the Heeters had only installed a tracking function in the scouters, not a listening function.

Of course, to be on the safe side, Zuke also used "Black Bird Requiem" to fix the outcome that "the upcoming conversation would not be monitored."

The fact that this outcome was fixed with almost no consumption of "ki" showed that the Heeters indeed hadn't installed any additional listening functions, and no one could overhear the conversation between Zuke and Bardock.

Thinking about it, installing a tracking function was probably the limit of what Frieza could accept. If the Heeters had installed a listening function, they wouldn't have been able to get past Frieza either.

"Hello? Zuke? What's up, why are you contacting me again so suddenly?"

Although for Zuke, who had been training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber inside the cube spaceship for over half a month, this was a conversation after many days, for Bardock, only a few hours had passed since their last call.

Since Bardock had only informed Zuke about the bounty on his head a few hours ago, he hadn't realized that Zuke had already encountered the Ginyu Force.

The universe is vast, so what were the odds that Zuke and the Ginyu Force would cross paths in just a few hours?

"Bardock, I ran into the Ginyu Force."

However, Zuke calmly told Bardock about his recent encounter, and then heard Bardock's sharp intake of breath in surprise.

"I've already taken care of the Ginyu Force, and I've kept their bodies—though I didn't kill them in front of the Saiyans, these corpses should help them understand my strength, right?"

"Are you... serious?"

Bardock's tone became unusually grave. He hadn't expected that just a few hours later, Zuke had already fought the Ginyu Force.

And the result was even more shocking to Bardock—Zuke had effortlessly wiped out the entire Ginyu Force and even kept their bodies.

Although Zuke had previously said he could easily handle the Ginyu Force and even wanted Bardock to lure them to Planet Vegeta to kill them in front of all the Saiyans, when Zuke actually took care of the Ginyu Force, Bardock's heart still skipped a beat.

After all, while Bardock knew Zuke was strong, without any concrete achievements to show for it, he still felt somewhat uncertain.

But now, he felt a surge of confidence—if Zuke could easily take down the Ginyu Force, then what was King Vegeta to him?

"However, I also learned some information from the Ginyu Force just now."

Hearing Bardock's tone, Zuke knew that Bardock now had more trust in his strength, so he shared the intel he had obtained from Jeice.

When Bardock heard that the Saiyans' scouters not only had Frieza's tracking but also the Heeters's, he couldn't help but curse.

Although he had long known that the Saiyans' position in Frieza's army wasn't great, he hadn't expected that Frieza's forces would give the Saiyans devices that could potentially leak information.

No wonder the Heeters had arrived on Planet Cereal so quickly after the Saiyans—it turned out the Saiyans' movements were completely transparent to the Heeters.

Although as a Saiyan, Bardock was seen by other races as a symbol of cruelty, he was very loyal to his fellow Saiyans.

Knowing that the Saiyans were being treated so differently, Bardock was furious, and he became even more supportive of Zuke's plan to free the Saiyans from Frieza's army.

"So, did you contact me just to tell me this intel?"

After calming his anger, Bardock asked Zuke.

He was starting to understand Zuke's "new" personality and knew that Zuke wouldn't contact him just to share some trivial information.

There must be something else he needed.

For Bardock, Zuke was now the future leader of the Saiyans, so he would do whatever he could to help.

"Can you get me the location of the Heeters Group?"

Zuke didn't beat around the bush and directly asked.

"I plan to completely wipe out the Heeters... You wouldn't want every future action to be monitored by them, would you?"

"The location of the Heeters Group? Hold on, let me check for you."

Upon hearing this, Bardock immediately sprang into action to help Zuke find the Heeters's location.

Since the Heeters Group was a business hub—dealing in information, planet trading, and even population trafficking—their base was actually public knowledge. It could be found with a simple search.

But Zuke didn't have access to such information, and it would be a waste of time to go all the way to Zuno just to ask for the Heeters's location.

Soon, Bardock returned. The Saiyan headquarters also had records of the Heeters's coordinates, which Bardock easily found.

The Heeters's headquarters was located in the central region of the universe, the most bustling area for interstellar trade.

Yes, even in the Dragon Ball universe, there are central and remote regions.

For example, Earth's position in the universe was like the suburbs of the suburbs, where even universal currency couldn't be used.

After obtaining the Heeters's location, Zuke didn't hesitate. He entered the cube spaceship, input the coordinates, and checked how long it would take to reach the Heeters's headquarters.

"Traveling to this planet will take 147 taks."

The cube spaceship's controller responded—147 taks, which was a little over 70 minutes.

The elimination of the Ginyu Force had taken almost no time at all, so Zuke still had about two hours of playtime left.

A 70-minute journey... that was enough time for Zuke to get there and take care of the rest of the Heeters.

"Let's head out then, to the Heeters Group's headquarters, to finish off the remaining members of the Heeters."
