Royal Saiyan Blood

The fourth year of Prince-R's life was marked by a pivotal event that would test his mettle and shape his understanding of what it meant to be a Saiyan prince.

The Lesson of Defeat: Despite his skill and determination, Prince-R faced his first taste of defeat. It was a close match, one that ended with the prince on his back, staring up at the sky. The crowd fell silent, the shock palpable. But as his father helped him to his feet, Prince-R learned a valuable lesson—not of shame, but of humility and the drive to improve.

The Resolve to Rise: In the days that followed, Prince-R's training intensified. He revisited the techniques that had failed him, honing them with a newfound focus. His defeat had not broken him; it had forged a stronger will. The prince understood that to bear the weight of royalty was to embrace every fall as a step toward an inevitable rise.

The Triumph: The next year, Prince-R returned to the tournament, his spirit unbroken, his skills sharpened. The battles were fierce, but this time, the prince emerged victorious. His triumph was not just a personal victory but a message to all—Prince-R was more than a royal heir; he was a warrior destined for greatness.
