"My name is Yamiru. As you can see, I'm an ordinary Earthling."
"If we're going by what I see... I don't think you look like any ordinary Earthling at all..."
Yamoshi, with her black short hair, glanced at Yamiru. Although many of the features of his dragon transformation had faded, there were still visible black scales on his body, especially on his hands and feet, which resembled the claws of a wild beast. Additionally, when Yamiru spoke, sharp fangs could be seen in his mouth...
"He must be one of those so-called mutants, right?" Yamoshi said indifferently, showing no bias against Yamiru, unlike the heavily armored Earthlings.
If I had to classify myself in this state, I would probably be considered part of the Demon race... or maybe half-demon? Yamiru thought, as the somewhat quiet Namek said, "He's different from those Earthlings with animal traits. His aura..." He hesitated to say something like "demon aura", then refrained.
The people around them had all suffered at the hands of demons and had an intense hatred for them.
"...Even if we don't talk about his aura, just by observing him with the naked eye, you can tell that the beast-like features on his body have faded a lot since the first time he was brought here. If he were one of those Earthlings with animal traits, such changes wouldn't happen, right?" Namek changed his reasoning.
His observation and analysis abilities are really sharp... Yamiru thought. Judging by his appearance, he's at least a battle-type Namekian, or maybe even a versatile genius like Piccolo from the Dragon Clan?
"Really?" Yamoshi was surprised, shifting her position and moving closer to Yamiru to get a better look. "The scales have definitely receded... Namek, your eyes are even better than my people!" She praised her companion, seeming to consider it quite impressive to outdo her in terms of eyesight.
As she got closer, Yamiru's eyes flickered, and he asked in surprise, "You're a female?"
He would never forget the name Yamoshi. When he asked the Earth Dragon about the "first Super Saiyan and God of Super Saiyans," the dragon had specifically named her as Yamoshi!
If this Yamoshi is the same one... Could she really be a female Saiyan?
"You just realized? It's not your fault, though. We Sadalas don't develop much before adulthood..." Yamoshi said, initially surprised but soon explaining kindly. "Don't be fooled by how I look, I'm almost 17 years old..." She paused for a moment, gazing up at the dim Earth sky and murmuring, "It's already been over four years since I left Sadala..."
Seeing that the Saiyan girl had suddenly become somewhat downcast and introverted, Yamiru couldn't help but ask Namek, "What's wrong with her?"
Namek paused for a moment, then replied, "The situation in her hometown may not be much better than what you see on Earth now..."
Yamoshi came back to herself and scratched her head awkwardly. Her hands, like Yamiru, Namek's, and the other "mutants," were shackled by iron chains. In a natural movement, she scratched her head, easily breaking the chains... "Ah, I gave it away." She looked at the broken chains hanging from her wrists.
Namek: "..."
Yamiru finally smiled but didn't say anything. Yamoshi didn't have Namek's skills and couldn't control her ki, so it was impossible for her to hide her aura. From start to finish, her strength was clearly visible to Yamiru. There's no way these iron chains could really hold her!
It was clear that Yamoshi had willingly been chained up by these Earthlings and brought here...
Yamoshi didn't feel too embarrassed. She shoved her hand back into place and acted as if nothing happened. She changed the subject and briefly told Yamiru about her home planet.
However, the more Yamiru listened, the more something seemed off. The way she described the brutal rulers on Sadala sounded more and more like the "S Warriors" that the dragon had mentioned before...
"I left Sadala secretly because I hated the constant fighting..." Yamoshi sighed, "But I didn't expect the Earth that Namek admired to turn out like this. Sigh..."
Namek looked toward the horizon, his expression very serious.
He could indeed feel the presence of the six Demon Kings, especially the most powerful one... Yamiru noticed Namek's expression and then said to Yamoshi, "If you hate fighting so much, why did you join this group of Earthlings?" At Yamoshi's surprised and silent expression, Yamiru calmly continued, "You hate fighting not because you're weak, but because you long for peace. When you encountered such a situation on Earth, you couldn't bring yourself to ignore it, and without realizing it, you..."
Yamoshi lowered her head, feeling downcast, as Yamiru had hit a deep emotional chord.
But just as Yamiru was about to finish his words, his expression suddenly changed.
Yamoshi looked at him in confusion, then saw Yamiru turning his head, looking past the crowd toward a direction ahead.
It turned out that without realizing it, they had already approached the core area of the terrifying Demon King Samuel's domain. The environment grew increasingly desolate, and one could even see visible areas of miasma, like swirling fog, with the landscape no longer resembling Earth. It was as if scenes from hell had manifested on Earth, giving it a fantastical and eerie feel.
"Something's coming," Namek whispered. He was surprised, not expecting this Earthling named Yamiru to have a keener sense of ki than he, a member of the Dragon Clan. "It must be the Demon Clan that Earthlings talk about... Be careful."
With that, Namek lightly tugged his hands, snapping the chains binding him as easily as breaking two rubber bands.
At that moment, the beast pulling the cart let out a loud whinny. The animal's instincts had detected danger.
The Earth experts noticed the abnormal behavior of the horses, and especially the reactions from the monstrous animal-human hybrids in the group. They immediately understood that the Demon Clan was about to attack!
"To your right!"
Everyone heard a loud shout. The armored giant, who had quickly removed the chains from the mutants, looked at the cart. The three people on it, including Yamiru, had somehow already broken free of their chains. Especially Yamiru, who, as he shouted the warning to everyone, had already raised one finger and shot out a white line faster than lightning.
What was that? The armored giant stared in disbelief. Wait, why would the chains...
The white line flew across a hundred meters in an instant, piercing through the head of a Demon Clan member who had appeared on the right side.
"It seems you're the one who killed Maliza..."
