“What? That bastard's clearly working against us, we need to-!” you shout, your king holding up a hand.
“I feel the same way. But, unless he takes overt action, we can't retaliate.” Vegeta says, shaking his head. “This is a political matter. And several factions Freeza held completely control and loyalty over are divided on his brother's rule. Cooler's made enemies. And having one of his backers so publicly eliminated could fracture the PTO entirely. It would be war.”
War. The word stops you cold. It's been years since the last war ended, your youngest born only months before the Covenant War reached its end.
“What do we do?” you ask, Vegeta crossing his arms. Meeting your gaze, expression more serious than you can ever recall.
“We figure out his goal. And beat him to it.” King Vegeta replies, tone hard. “While you fight the last Cerelean, Granolah, we'll have another team deployed. One to gather those Dragon Balls, and keep them out of Elec's hands. Lead by your wife and Bardock, who have the power to fight off even that one's strength. And your youngest daughter, Okira, who'll be able to find them faster than anyone else. If, you'd be willing to let her join this mission?”
Well? How do you answer this surprising request?
>Ask if he'll be joining this mission as well, or if he'll be here handling other issues>Agree for Okira to come along, he's not wrong and her power could always prove useful in unexpected ways>Tell him you'll go ask her in person, see what she thinks and give him her answer>Telepathically call Okira over, explain the situation with the king and ask her directly there in his office>Decline, you're not bringing your youngest into a warzone like this. You'll find another answer to searching for the Dragon Balls, starting on Namek. If anyone'll know how to find them, it would be the Namekians>Other(write in)?
