"I don't see myself as what you know as a Saiyan. If you were to walk up to a Saiyan on this planet, we are definitely not what I would call the same, that's true. Different cultures without question. No one would mistake our two as the same if they saw them side by side."
The questions had started, and it was to be expected, but now it was a matter of trying to explain without lying. He was being deceitful with his facade, but he was trying to stay within the boundaries of the truth as much as it was possible. He didn't like lying to people, but there was a method to his actions, even if they were coming to an end sooner than later. Just a bit more time and he could move out of this Saiyan costume and no one would be the wiser.
"I've already shown you I can power up without the transformation many other Saiyans use. I've seen other Saiyans on this planet transform without it as well. We all follow our own paths. That's not to say that I couldn't turn into the giant ape, but it wouldn't bring me anymore power. If anything it would just cause issues as I've had no reason to use it or learn to control it."
Each explanation was starting to feel as if he was running in mud. The more he tried to explain himself the closer he got to flat out lying or giving away something he wasn't ready to. This was one Tuffle out of many, and there was a chance it wouldn't matter if he dropped the Saiyan facade and showed him who he was, but for now it was important to keep up appearances.
He seemed pretty distant from a saiyan, but guess they could be saiyans who grew up a different way. It was not all saiyans who arrived on plant. The saiyans may have headed to all sorts of places across the galaxy. It would be foolish to assume the same of them. He let it go, he was going to assume what Ward was saying. He also noted unlike the saiyans, he could power up without a transformation, at least an Ozzaru one. He was quite sure Rainer's power-up was some sort of transformation but just not in same vien of the Ozzaru was. Still, Rainer also noted he could probably turn into an Ozzaru but it would just bring more problems than anything else. It was not that helpful of the power-up in the situations he was in. which was fair as well. Korado sighed, "Well this was a good talk. Yes that is something I can learn from. Well, I do have some things to be doing. I don't wanna take up your time while you're exploring this forest." Korado would bow his head to Rainer. "It was good to meet you Rainer hopefully we meet again." And with that Korado turned and went to leave.
The unease of the conversation had stayed from start to end, and it was just as much his own fault as anyone else's. The mask was starting to slip on his costume, and it was getting to a point his patience was wearing thin. Being a Saiyan was more trouble than any gain. Near every plan thus far had been foiled by sheer accident as the entire reason of using the disguise, and the one man he looked to get closer to was presumed dead.
It was starting to feel like he was going through the motions, and it was obvious even this stranger of a different race could see the crackers forming.
"I suppose it was. I will say one thing before you leave however; be careful around these Saiyans and their allies. I know Yangcong, alive or not, was and is a dangerous Tuffle in his own right, but he has Saiyan blood running through his veins."
Strong as Korado seemed to be, there was something about him that seemed not quite naive, but perhaps too willing to look towards peace, much like Ward found himself falling into more than his fair share.
"Every Saiyan I've met outside of myself on this planet has been their own variation of violent. Don't be so trusting of strangers, and always keep your guard up."
