Journey to Planet Namek

"Come forth, Shenron, grant my wish!"

The sky instantly darkened, and the light emanating from the seven Dragon Ball transformed into a giant blue Giant Dragon. The Giant Dragon meandered and swirled in the sky, lowering its head to look at the one who had summoned it.

A shiny bald head, a face that looks like a simple sketch, and a pair of dull, lifeless eyes—he looks exactly like a character hastily created by the author.

Let alone the main characters, even the Kakuzu are usually not this careless. Only when drawing a group of background characters would you see such a simple appearance.

At this moment, this ordinary-looking, bald man revealed a look of surprise and delight, his eyes shining with longing:

"Shenron! There really is Shenron! That's amazing! Shenron, please grant my wish! I want to have a thick head of hair!"

The Shenron in the sky nodded:

"This wish is very simple! Alright, I have granted your wish."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Shenron in the sky transformed into seven orbs of light and flew out. At this moment, a Blond Young Man casually waved his hand, and one of the orbs of light landed in his hand, turning into a stone ball.

"Here you go, Kid Goku, this is your Four-Star Dragon Ball!"

Vegapunk casually handed the Dragon Ball to Goku, then looked in surprise at the bald man making the wish, who was none other than the legendary bald demon king Saitama.

Saitama came to the Dragon Ball World because he heard the legend that the Dragon Ball could grant wishes. Naturally, after watching the World Martial Arts Tournament, he immediately sought out Vegapunk, wanting to make a wish as soon as possible.

Although wishing for long hair sounds a bit funny, considering that an Oolong resulted in a wish for panties, and that a certain Fleet Admiral of the Red Ribbon Army wished to grow taller, Vegapunk didn't think Saitama was wasting good things by doing this.

Anyway, Dragon Ball allows you to make a wish once a year, so giving it to Saitama is fine, there's not much to say.

With Saitama's strength and the Dragon Radar at his disposal, collecting all Dragon Balls was a piece of cake. In just half a month, Saitama had already collected them all.

During this time, Kid Goku also went to look for the Dragon Ball, but after Vegapunk and Saitama promised to return the Four-Star Dragon Ball to him after he made his wish, Kid Goku agreed to let Saitama make a wish first.

For Kid Goku, who had thick, strong black hair, losing all his hair was something he could hardly imagine, which naturally made Saitama Kid Goku.

However, to Vegapunk's surprise, Saitama's wish actually came true?

Seeing Saitama's thick black hair, Vegapunk stroked his chin. The Bald Demon King has now grown hair. Does he still have the strength of the Demon King?

However, seeing Saitama touching his regained hair and crying Saitama of joy, Vegapunk didn't ask those discouraging questions.

The next morning, a heart-wrenching scream shattered the heavens. When Vegapunk and Kid Goku rushed over, they saw Saitama staring blankly at the head of the bed, his face dark with rage.

On the headboard, a large amount of black hair had covered the pillow. Vegapunk turned his head and saw that Saitama originally had thick black hair, was now completely bald.

"Why? Why did this happen... I was so stupid, so stupid... I thought it would be okay once my hair grew back, but I never imagined it would keep falling out..."

As Saitama muttered to himself, he swayed as he stood up. The overwhelming aura of morbidity transformed into a giant black Giant Dragon, as if it were about to devour the entire world in the next instant.

Kid Goku trembled slightly and shrank back a little. Vegapunk also swallowed hard. Could it be that this Caped Baldy had suffered too much of a blow and completely collapsed and turned evil?

The Caped Baldy thing was just a joke, Saitama, you're not actually going to do it, are you?!

Looking at his Battle Power Scanner, Vegapunk saw Saitama's combat power fluctuating from zero to hundreds of millions, occasionally emitting crackling sounds, indicating that the test had exceeded the upper limit of combat power.

That was just a small, blindfold-type Battle Power Scanner. Even with Vegapunk's technology, with its rough manufacturing, it could only test combat power within a range of less than one hundred million.

Clearly, Saitama, who is now showing signs of turning evil due to his hair problem, is starting to lose control of his fighting power, and his fighting power is definitely far more than 100 million.

Saitama's eyes were practically glowing red as he watched. Vegapunk took a long breath, then casually reached into his Portable Space and pulled out a large piece of meat.

"Premium Sea Kings meat steak, the finest ingredients, one serving is enough to sell for tens of millions!"

"We're having a huge clearance sale now! Not 10 million yen, not 998 yen, just 98 yen to take it home!"

No sooner had Vegapunk finished speaking than Saitama snatched the steak from his hand with a whoosh and placed it in a plastic bag that appeared out of nowhere.

Saitama, who had seemed to have turned evil, had now completely returned to normal, and the constantly fluctuating settings in the Battle Power Scanner instantly returned to the number one.

His fighting ability is so weak, probably not even as good as a goose, only comparable to a chick. It's surprising that Saitama's fighting ability after calming down is so weak—or rather, his control is so strong.

That's difficult. Why is it that among so many people in the One-Punch Man World, not a single person has ever been able to tell from Saitama's daily behavior that he is a master?

Perhaps it's because of his laid-back attitude. Judging from the Battle Power Scanner, under normal circumstances, Saitama's displayed combat power is not even as good as a chicken.

Upon seeing Vegapunk's gaze, Saitama seemed to realize what was happening, immediately reached into his pocket, pulled out a 100 yen note, and handed it to Vegapunk.

As he handed over the money, Saitama stammered, "..."

"Um... don't forget, there's two yuan in change!"

Although the Sea Kings meat steak stabilized Saitama's descent into darkness, the Caped Baldy's mood remained low for the next few days.

He didn't immediately return to the One-Punch Man World. There were still plenty of delicious foods in the Dragon Ball World, especially in the wilderness where there were all sorts of huge animals like dinosaurs, Pterosaur, and mammoths, which Saitama considered delicious.

In comparison, the number of Monsters in the One-Punch Man World is much smaller, far less than the large groups of animals in the Dragon Ball World. Moreover, only a small portion of the Monsters are edible. Therefore, Saitama plans to stay here for a while longer.

Of course, more importantly...

"Besides the Dragon Ball, are there any other ways to restore my hair?"

Saitama looked at Vegapunk with anticipation. Although his hair had fallen out completely the next day, at least it had grown back!

In comparison, back in the One-Punch Man World, I didn't even have the chance to lose my hair if I wanted to!

Vegapunk shuddered at Saitama's expectant gaze, then after a moment's thought, he spoke:

"Perhaps you can make a few more wishes, such as the first wish being that your hair grows back, and the second wish being that you won't experience hair loss... That way, you can keep your hair forever, right?"

"Really?"

Saitama's eyes lit up, and he scratched his head.

"Perhaps I can first wish to the Shenron to cure my hair loss, and then wish to the Shenron to grow my hair back?"

"Um... but is this really okay? You know, when I started treating my hair loss, I was still bald. What if by the time my hair grows back, it'll be a completely different situation?"

Vegapunk glanced at Saitama and had to admit that the guy seemed to have gotten a lot smarter. Based on his assessment of Saitama's character, what he said was actually quite likely to happen.

"If that's the case, then we can only make several wishes in a short period of time. The Dragon Ball on Earth are probably not powerful enough. We'll have to find the Namekian Dragon Balls in space!"

"Namekian Dragon Balls? So there's more than one set of Dragon Ball in this universe! Are there differences between these Dragon Ball?"

Blinking his eyes, Saitama asked with a curious expression.

Vegapunk nodded and spoke directly to Saitama:

"That's right. Of course, there's more than one set of Dragon Ball. In this universe, as far as I know, there should be at least three sets of Dragon Ball."

"Among them, the Earth's Dragon Ball are the weakest, and can only grant one wish. The Planet Namek Dragon Ball are more powerful, each Dragon Ball being as big as a washbasin, and can grant three wishes in total."

"There are also the legendary Dragon Ball left behind by the Dragon God. Each Dragon Ball is as large as a planet. It is said that Dragon Ball in the universe are made from its fragments. This set of Dragon Ball is the most powerful, and it is said that the range of wishes it can grant is far greater than that of ordinary Dragon Ball."

"However, these Dragon Ball can only be used with the language of God. I have never learned the language of God. Moreover, it is said that the seven Dragon Ball are distributed in two different universes, so it is very difficult to find them."

While Vegapunk gained knowledge of the entire universe by using the ordinary Dragon Ball, this did not include knowledge of the Deity, so he naturally did not understand any divine language. Similarly, he did not know where the seven Dragon God created the Dragon Ball.

With knowledge of the entire universe, he could easily find Planet Namek, and if he had the abilities of the Namekians, creating some Dragon Ball wouldn't have been a problem.

"Can the Planet Namek Dragon Ball grant three wishes?"

Upon hearing this, Saitama's face immediately broke into a smile:

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry to that Planet Namek! How do we get there? Dr. Vegapunk, have you perhaps developed some kind of spaceship?"

"Developing spaceships is too slow,"

Vegapunk shook his head. Even though he had combined the technologies of several worlds to develop a spaceship that could Space Jump and reach Planet Namek in just a few hours, don't forget that just building the spaceship would take him one or two months.

Instead of that, it's better to use a simpler method.

"I have a technique called Instant Transmission that I can teach you. You'll just need to move according to my coordinates to travel directly to Planet Namek!"

Having absorbed the knowledge of the entire universe, Vegapunk naturally also learned the technique of Space Transfer. In fact, given his Electromagnetic Ability alone, performing Space Transfer would not be a difficult task.

Even in Vegapunk's true form, he can only perform Space Transfer within the Solar System at most. For longer distances, with his current strength, he simply doesn't have enough energy to perform Space Jump.

However, what Vegapunk couldn't do doesn't mean the Caped Baldy can't do it. According to Vegapunk's estimation, the Caped Baldy's strength must at least exceed that of Super Saiyan 2. If he learns Instant Transmission, he can easily travel to Planet Namek by performing a few Space Transfer.

Despite Saitama's apparent lack of energy, Vegapunk has complete faith in him. What others cannot do is nothing to the Caped Baldy. With just a little instruction, he believes Saitama will soon master Instant Transmission.

As Vegapunk had predicted, Saitama's learning speed far exceeded Vegapunk expectations once he was motivated. Almost as soon as Vegapunk finished teaching him, Saitama had already learned Instant Transmission.

With the ability to teleport and the coordinates in their hands, the two arrived on Planet Namek by the morning of the second day.

"This planet looks pretty desolate."

After glancing at the planet's environment, Saitama asked with some curiosity:

"Could there really be Dragon Ball here? The Namekians can even create Dragon Ball, so why haven't they improved the planet's environment?"

Vegapunk shook his head:

"It is said that using the Dragon Ball too much can have some bad consequences. The more amazing the wish, the greater the price. It seems that the Namekians' original planet became barren because of this. Therefore, they will not use the Dragon Ball unless they are in a real crisis."

"Another point is that Namekians have an extremely strong survival ability and can even perform photosynthesis directly. As long as there is water and the sun, they don't have much need for materials!"

Compared to the warriors in the Dragon Clan, the Namekians are closer to a race of mages. Piccolo Jr.'s training style is completely different from most of the Dragon Ball warriors. He rarely does any physical exercise and often prefers meditation.

"Able to perform photosynthesis?"

Saitama's head lit up slightly, as if a fantasy bubble had emerged. Instead of hair, green leaves grew on the head of the person inside the bubble.

"Alright, they don't actually have leaves growing on their heads; their skin is just green!"

Vegapunk sneered and said something that immediately startled Saitama:

How did you know what I was thinking?

"Just look at your face and I know!"
