Trunks was the last to enter the Time Machine. He pressed the start button, and the Time Machine instantly transformed into a streak of light, shooting into the sky before disappearing.
Future,
The Time Machine appeared above the dilapidated Super Glue Company building, and after it landed, Trunks and the others flew out of it.
Hearing the noise, Future Bulma confirmed it was Trunks before daring to step out of the room. When she saw the Time Machine, which was several sizes larger, a bewildered expression appeared on her face.
Bulma recognized at a glance that the person in front of her was her future self. Seeing her future self's weathered face, Bulma's heart grew heavy.
Future Bulma looked at her own youthful face and felt as if she were in a different world.
The two Bulma looked at each other silently, neither of them saying a word.
It wasn't until Trunks came out and called out "Mom" that Future Bulma snapped out of her daze. She secretly wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye and said with a smile,
"Oh, Trunks's back, and he's brought a few guests with him."
"Mother?"
Bulma was taken aback. Trunks had never revealed who his parents were, but the clever girl had vaguely guessed something, and now it was confirmed.
Trunks went over and hugged Future Bulma, then introduced her to Senga and the others.
The first person he wanted to introduce was Bulma, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he suddenly didn't know how to begin.
Future Bulma noticed Trunks' embarrassment, smiled, and said...
"No need for introductions, of course I recognize my past self."
Bulma suddenly spoke up and asked,
So you ultimately chose Goku?
"You chose... Goku? Why would you ask that?"
"Because Trunks is Saiyan, so who else could his father be besides Goku?"
Future Bulma was momentarily confused because, at the point in time she set for Trunks, her past self should have already met Vegeta and even developed a slight liking for him.
But why is it that when Saiyan are mentioned, my past self only thought of Goku?
Trunks quickly leaned close to Future Bulma's ear and whispered something. Future Bulma looked at Senga, who was standing there, in surprise.
She never expected that a "new character" would appear in the timeline Trunks went to, and that history would even be changed because of him.
However, what shocked her even more was what followed. No. 18 slowly walked out from behind Senga.
Following Trunks' example, No. 18 knew that her appearance would definitely frighten Bulma in the future, which is why she kept hiding behind Senga.
However, hiding forever wasn't a good idea, so she felt she should come out and let Future Bulma see her first, so she could be mentally prepared in advance.
Upon seeing No. 18, Future Bulma was indeed quite startled.
In Future Bulma's eyes, No. 18's angelic face hides a devilish heart; it was she and No. 17 who made the future what it is.
Trunks stepped in to save the day once again. It took him quite a while to explain before Future Bulma calmed down a bit. She looked at Senga hesitantly and asked,
"So everything in that timeline was changed because of this Senga?"
"Yes, and Senga came here specifically to help us! And that angel too, with the two of them here, those two androids won't be able to be arrogant for long!"
Senga smiled at Bulma Mirai and said,
"Hello, my name is Uchiha Senga. It sounds a bit strange, but it's nice to meet you from the future."
Future Bulma quickly nodded, still in a daze, unsure of what to say.
However, it was obviously very impolite to keep the guests outside, and she quickly realized this, so she immediately turned to invite Senga and the others inside.
The future Capsule Corp is much smaller than it was in the past, and the Mr. and Mrs. Brief have passed away. Apart from one laboratory that is still relatively intact, the rest of the company has been almost completely destroyed by the androids.
Bulma felt a pang of sadness looking at her home in its current state.
Bulma brought over a few cans of drinks and placed them on the table. Bardos curiously picked one up, opened it, and took a small sip. The slightly stimulating taste made her eyes light up, and she couldn't help but exclaim...
"That's really good! Did you make this drink too?"
Future Bulma smiled and nodded, saying,
"This is like finding joy in hardship. When I have free time, I like to make some drinks. These contain some alcohol, and I don't know if you can drink alcohol."
"Of course, Bulma! Learn from your future self, and then go back and do some more!"
Bulma nodded helplessly, the sacred image of angels in her mind gradually crumbling.
Bardos took another big gulp. Although the alcohol content of the drink wasn't very high, her alcohol tolerance seemed to be quite low, and these few sips made her face turn red.
Senga couldn't hold back any longer. He snatched the drink can from Bardos's hand, weighed it in his hand, and found that it was empty.
Whether it was an act or not, Bardos suddenly tilted her body and rested her head on Senga's shoulder, causing Bulma and No. 18 to raise their eyebrows in surprise.
She started to stutter.
"Good, delicious! Senga, you drink it! What are you doing? Give it back to me, I want more!"
Senga rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, "Someone like you who gets drunk from a beverage would be at the kids' table on Blue Star, you know that!"
He replied irritably.
"What are you drinking for! You've completely disgraced the angels! Just stay put!"
Bardos puffed out her cheeks and said angrily,
"You, how dare you speak to this angel like that! I'm angry! I'll punish you!"
"Oh? I'd really like to see how the angel intends to punish a mere mortal like myself!"
Bardos raised her head and glared at Senga, Senga glared back at her. A divine aura emanated from both of them.
Bulma and the others were startled, thinking that these two great gods were about to start a war over a bottle of beverage.
Then the two androids here won't even need to lift a finger. At that point, not only Earth, but even the entire universe might be lost.
However, this situation didn't last long. Bardos quickly deflated, and she suddenly buried her face in Senga's arms, muttering something.
"I'm not going to hold it against you, but you're the one I've chosen... Don't be so fierce next time!"
Fortunately, her nemesis Marcarita, wasn't here. If she saw what Vados looked like now, Vados wouldn't be able to hold her head high for the next thousand years.
