Towa’s annoyed, but she looks up at Dabura and shrugs. The Demon King smirks. “It seems I gave the little one here too much credit to her Tuffle side’s shrewdness. It’s clear to me now that you Saiyans in general are rather sharp-minded when you need to be. I can agree to these terms. Your family and your allies will be left alone.”

A slow nod is followed by him bolting off, back in the direction of Mifan. Beelzebub doesn’t quite agree with the stunt he just pulled, but is willing to accept it. You’ve got your chance to speak again. “All right, I’ve still got concerns about this Makaioshin guy. You’ve implied that you all can keep him in line and focused on ‘restoring the Demon Realm’ with you once you’ve got the reigns on it. What concerns me the most is the prior history you have with a being manipulating you. Namely, Babidi and the mark he put on your forehead, effectively forcing your abdication and leading to this whole mess in the first place. The one that, from my understanding, both my mom AND you, Towa, had to break to free Dabura. The Makaioshin is a million times Babidi’s peer, isn’t he?” To say nothing of how he might react when woken up. Could end up trying to kill them all, either for the slight against him for thinking he’d work with them, or even a morning workout.
That does bring unpleasant memories to the forefront of Dabura’s mind, and for the first time, he frowns at you. “I can admit to the Dark King being far greater than Babidi, yes. And I can admit to being manipulated by Babidi. The difference now is in preparation. We are sufficiently ready to not fall into any traps like the one you’re proposing.”
“How can you say that with a straight face?!” Beelzebub exclaims. “You’d need to be Demon Gods yourselves to even HOPE for that…!” The prince’s voice falters and trails off when he looks to Majin Ozotto and the scythe-wielding demon.
