Chapter 60 Time Stops for 5 Seconds

"Mers? Who's that?"

Feeling the oppressive aura emanating from him, Jacques' expression hardened, but upon hearing the unfamiliar name Rhodes mentioned, he instinctively asked a question in return.

After asking the question, Rhode observed Jacques's expression. Seeing his reaction, he couldn't help but ask again, "The Galactic Patrol doesn't have someone named Mels?"

"No, absolutely not!"

When asked by Rhodes, Jacques assured him with certainty.

"Oh, that's a real shame!"

Seeing how firmly Gak spoke, Rhodes had basically come to believe him.

After all, Mers is a powerful trainee angel. Even though he is undergoing training as a galactic patrol officer and cannot use his angelic powers, he is definitely one of the best in the galactic patrol team.

If Mers were present with the Galactic Patrol right now, Jacques would probably be eager to show off this true super elite.

"Alright, don't be nervous. I won't do anything to you because you're too weak!"

Looking at the trembling Jacques, Rod patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly.

At this point, as if remembering something, he continued, "By the way, I'll be living on Earth from now on, so you'd better keep that so-called extinction bomb safe. Otherwise, if your negligence leads to the annihilation of humanity, you should know the consequences!"

The so-called extinction bomb in Jak's possession is a biological weapon that only works on humans. However, Rhode didn't want this guy to cause trouble because of his presence, so he warned him.

"Mmm~"

Faced with Rhodes's threat, Jac nodded repeatedly, behaving as obediently as could be.

"Relax, don't be so tense. After all, I'm not a bad person!"

Looking at the tense body of Jacques, Rod smiled and reached out to pat him. However, the touch was slippery and made him feel very uncomfortable. He then subconsciously wiped his hands on Jacques' clothes.

"hehe"

Hearing Rod's words and seeing the clothes that had been used as a rag, Jac's lips twitched, and he felt like crying.

In his eyes, Rod was more evil than those Saiyans who were all muscle and tortured people alive!

Having gotten what he wanted and given a warning, and thinking that with Dr. Brief and Bulma around, repairing the spaceship would be a piece of cake, Rhodes immediately said to him with a friendly expression:

"Alright, eat and drink as you please, and enjoy these last few days!"

After saying that, Rod went into the house first, as he still wanted to talk to Dr. Dasheng.

"what?"

Watching Rhodes leave, Jak stood frozen in place: What did this Saiyan mean? Was he going to kill him?

Thinking about how Rod had just told him to eat and drink as he pleased, Jac felt a chill run down his spine and didn't know what to do.

Putting aside Gak's wild thoughts, the conversation among the people in the other room was quite harmonious.

Afterwards, with the help of Dr. Brief and the super genius Bulma, Jacques' spaceship was repaired in just one day.

However, after the spaceship was repaired, Jacques, who had promised to take Dr. Dasheng and Tais on a trip through space and even planned a shopping spree on Earth, hurriedly said goodbye to the two and fled Earth immediately.

He was terrified that if he was even a little slow, he would fall into Rod's hands.

"That guy, Jak, he just got away like that!"

Watching Jak's spaceship disappear into the sky, Tais, who aspired to be a science fiction writer, looked annoyed and grumbled angrily.

"Heh, as a Galactic Patrolman, Jacques is probably quite busy!"

Upon hearing Tais's words, Dr. Dasheng, who was standing to the side, offered a slightly regretful explanation.

Having witnessed all of this, Rhodes felt it was time for him to step forward.

He raised his hand and summoned a spatial portal, then entered the Time Chamber. A short while later, he emerged carrying a universal capsule box.

"Tais, this is for you!"

Leaving the Time Chamber, Rhodes tossed the all-purpose capsule box to Tais: "Inside is a spaceship, even bigger than Gack's."

Upon receiving the universal capsule and hearing Rhodes's words, Tais's eyes lit up, and her face lit up with joy: "Really? That's wonderful!"

As she spoke, Tais took out the universal capsule and threw it out in a spacious place.

As a cloud of smoke burst open, a spacious spaceship that could accommodate about ten people appeared before them—the very same spaceship Rhodes had used before.

Now that Rhodes has mastered teleportation, the spaceship is practically useless except for the healing pods on it. Even after mastering the recovery technique, the healing pods have become somewhat of a waste.

Therefore, it would be very suitable to give it to Tais, who wants to become a science fiction writer.

"What a beautiful spaceship, Rhodes, thank you!"

Gazing at the technologically advanced spaceship, Tais couldn't help but exclaim in admiration and expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Rhodes.

"It's nothing, it's useless to me now."

When Tais thanked him, Rhodes waved his hand, not thinking it was anything special.

Seeing Tais board the spaceship and examine its structure, Rhodes' gaze fell on Dr. Dasheng beside him: "Doctor, do you still want to go back to the past?"

When Da Sheng was talking with Dr. Brief before, they discussed spacetime science. Even Little Bulma was involved. Maybe her future creation of a time machine is due to this.

Furthermore, the group also visited the time machine built by Dr. Dasheng.

Although everyone was disappointed that Dr. Dasheng's time machine could only freeze time for fifty seconds and could not truly travel through time, Rhodes knew exactly how incredible it was to freeze time for fifty seconds!

However, Dr. Dasheng initially worked for the government on this island researching time machines, but after the government abandoned him, he persisted for decades in order to go back in time and save his wife.

"Oh, you know about this?"

Hearing Rhodes's words, Dr. Dasheng wasn't too surprised. He guessed that Gack had told Rhodes, since he had only told Gack about this. However, at this moment, he shook his head:

"I don't want to think about it anymore. If she were still here, she probably wouldn't want me to be stuck in the past."

"In that case, Doctor, could you please give me that time machine?"

Seeing Da Sheng say this, Rod looked at the woods not far away, where the half-finished time machine was located.

Before Da Sheng could speak, he added, "In exchange, I can help you obtain ownership of this island. After all, you've lived here for decades and have many unforgettable memories!"

Rhodes's voice rang in Dr. Dasheng's ears, word by word. He opened his mouth, but couldn't find a reason to refuse.

Several days later, Rhodes helped Dr. Dasheng obtain ownership of the island from the government agency, and he also successfully obtained the half-finished time machine and all the spacetime data.

"Doctor, I'll come find you again when I can travel through time. If you'd like, I'll take you back in time!"

After leaving Dasheng with these words, Rod left the isolated island near the eastern city.

When Rhodes reappeared, he was already at Baozi Mountain, where he was going to meet Kakarot, who had recently returned from Earth.
