The Frozen Planet.
This entire planet is covered in nothing but frozen tundra and permafrost. The North and South Poles of Earth will seem like summer vacations compared to a walk on this planet... but just wait until you get to Xenolax's poles... THEN things even go to Absolute Zero!
Spacesuits can only protect you for so long from the cold... in fact they seem to protect you for annoyingly short times, due to wind chill effects speeding up the cooling. Also, even a x1.5 transformation will have issues unless they stay close to the equator.

Reiji brought the Ship down to the planets frozen Surface. Reiji noticed at the right time that it was mostly snow and ice down below so he rightly slowed the ship down to a Slow Speed to land.

The 1-Star Dragon Ball is here, buried under several yards of ice. Find a way to dig through the ice without falling to hypothermia or frostbite.
You must spend at least 24 hours after the post arriving before you may find the dragon ball, as well as get to page 3 of this topic.

Reiji landed the ship on the Frozen Tundra of the Planet. When the ship was finally set down, he looked out the window. "well this doesn't look too promising?" Reiji thought.

Reiji looked at the Temperature module on the ship. "Holy shit, this place makes the Earth North and South poles look like summer vacations. I wonder if i can even walk outside without getting frostbite.

Reiji opened the hatch of the Capsule Ship and waited as a huge breeze of freezing cold air rushed into the ship. "Well i guess that answers that question." Reiji would say getting pretty tired from not Sleeping in a while.

Reiji walked over to where the space suits were hung up. "I hope this will protect me a little from the cold weather here on the planet." He would say putting on the spacesuit.

Ace pulled his scouter out and pressed the button to search for power levels. After a few moments, he got a result. Is that... It's just as powerful as Reiji... Is he here? Good, it means he got his sense back.

Reiji headed outside the ship with the Spacesuit on. "It's fu-fu-fu-fucking cold out here." He said still shivering. "How the hell am i suppose to find the dragonball with these types of weather conditions."

Reiji began to walk out a little bit away from the ship when he tripped and fell over some hard snow on the ground. "Ugh" He would say, the tiredness starting to take over him.

Ace took a deep breath. "Okay...this might work for a minute or so..." He let his power rise into his Gamma Kai state, and then he left the ship via Instant Transmission, to the ground outside, and then dashed straight toward Reiji's ki signal with all the speed he could muster.

Following landing on the planet surface, Royd was about to sit back down on the couch as the gravity again was a bit much for him. However with his cane near by, he simply called on his new trick and brought the cane to him. While Sedric left for the cargo hold and Ace made some form of scans, Royd mad his way over to the hidden entrance to his quarters.
With the gravity beginning to get the better of him he thought it better to make use of one of the ship’s other capabilities. Opening the passage to his chambers, Royd disappeared into the hidden corridors of the ship. He quickly headed to the bowl shaped bed and laid down. As if on cue, the holographic projection system came online and blanketed Royd in blue light.
In the lounge, Royd’s holographic avatar flickered into being. Allowing the young man to move about without having to endure the discomfort of the planet’s gravity. Looking around the lunge he noted that Ace had departed as well. Since the hologram didn’t need doors or to actually walk, Royd simply consulted the monitors in his compartment to find the two and then routed his hologram there.
“Sorry to have fallen behind gentlemen but all of these high gravity planets are becoming quite tiresome. I’ve decided to send my hologram out instead. Although I can’t touch anything I can at least talk to you and see what is going on.”

Reiji tried to get up, but couldn't really muster the strength to. "Dammit.... I knew i should have taken a nap...." He said trying to stay awake in this cold enviroment. He knew if he slept now, he was a goner.

Ace grimaced when he finally found Reiji and saw him on the ground. "Jeeze..." he said, landing next to him. "You okay?" He clapped him on the back lightly. "Come on, capsule your ship. I'll get you someplace you can rest."

Ace grinned. "Don't worry about it," he said. "Now, le'ts get you out of the cold befor you lose consciousness!" At this he would pick Reiji up. "Hold on..." And then he shot off in the direction he had come from, his scouter aiding in his orientation.

Ace made it back to the massive ship, and teleported inside. "Hey, Royd..." he said, letting his power drop back to normal. "This is my friend...the one I mentioned back on Earth. He's not in the best shape... Anything you've got on this ship that can help him?"

Still standing about in the cargo hold while Sedric warmed himself, Royd decided to see just how far he could get his hologram down the boarding ramp before it started to fade. Moving to the ram though he noted on ship’s sensors that Ace returning and stepped out of the way, his translucent form flickering slightly as he did so. However Ace apparently didn’t feel the need to use the boarding ramp and teleported inside. Turning around Royd pointed to the transport tube and replied.
“Take him back up to the lounge. The kitchen is well stocked and I can have the computer raise the temperature up there to make him more comfortable.” he stated

Ace nodded. "Thanks," he said, and did as instructed, heading to said transport tube. He went up, and then into the lounge, laying Reiji on one of the couches there. "No need to thank me, Reiji," he said brightly.
Turning back to leave, he mumbled to himself... "Okay...he should be safe here until I can get the Dragonball, at least..."

Diverting his hologram back to the lounge, Royd picked up Ace’s mumbling. “I can watch over him if you like. Unless you need help in some other way” he stated, effectively announcing his presence in the room since the hologram was otherwise silent.

Ace just blinked in surprise at the sound of Royd's voice. "Ah... Yeah, please, if you can, do so," he said. "Thanks for the offer of help, but I wouldn't want to put you in danger of any kind out there. I can get the Dragonball myself, just make sure he's okay." Turning back, Ace made his way down to the cargo hold again. "Alright...back out into the blizzard!"

“You’re more then welcome for the help. If my hologram were able to be projected outside of the ship I would offer to help outside but I am afraid that poses somewhat of a technical problem. Good luck and return quickly.” Royd replied and turned his hologram to face the man on the couch after Ace departed.

Ace let his power rise again, ascending into his Gamma Kai state, and then with a deep breath, he took off out into the cold. Taking out his regular Dragon Radar, he turned it on. "Man...not all that close..."

"But it couln't be close, that would make it easy!" Ace grumbled, but nonetheless took off in the direction the radar indicated, moving with all due haste so as to try and spend as little time in the cold as possible.

Ace shivered slightly, rubbing his arms with his hands to try and warm them a little, but to no avail. "Crap it's cold... I should really wear warmer clothes..." he mumbled.
