Planet Namek is vast, and Namekians are spread across it. Thousands of miles away, in a peaceful village, they were organizing the planting of mushroom tree saplings. As soon as they were planted, an elderly Namekian closed his eyes, receiving a special radio wave from Nail.

"Dandy, come here," the Third Elder, Mulin, called out to Dandy.

Dandy jogged over, a smile on his face, and asked, "What is it, Elder?"

"Nail just sent a message to all the villages. The Great Elder wants to gather the Dragon Balls. You haven't seen Brother Nail in a long time, so let's go together now," Mulin said with a smile.

"Really? That's great!" Dandy exclaimed, his eyes lighting up with joy.

"We're quite far from the Great Elder, so let's hurry back, pack up, and bring the Dragon Balls to get ready to depart."

"Okay!" Dandy nodded obediently and ran towards home.

Planet Namek was currently in a long period of stability, so there was no need to worry about invasions by evil alien forces. Moreover, the individual combat abilities of Namekians were not weak; Raditz, with a Battle Power of 1500, could wreak havoc in the universe. Therefore, Planet Namek's defensive strength was quite strong, although this was another matter when dealing with powerhouses with Battle Powers in the billions.

When Nail sent the signal, the same thing happened in Namekian villages scattered across the planet: the elders, carrying the Dragon Balls, rushed towards the Great Elder's location.

The distance from each village to the Great Elder's residence varied, so the arrival times differed. The first to arrive was the Third Elder.

After several days of arduous travel, Dandy and the Third Elder finally arrived at the Great Elder's residence. From afar, Dandy spotted Nail and shouted, "Brother Nail!" Dandy waved at Nail and ran towards him.

Krillin looked back and first saw a miniature Piccolo. Behind the miniature Piccolo was an elderly Namekian, but Krillin paid more attention to the large Dragon Ball he was holding.

Nail turned his head and saw Dandy. He was a little surprised and walked forward without thinking. Nail skillfully picked up Dandy and said with a smile, "Dandy, what are you doing here?"

"Is this Dandy?" Krillin examined him. Krillin remembered that Dandy was also a very outstanding Dragon Clan member.

Dandy said happily, "I haven't seen Brother Nail in a long time. Elder came to deliver the Dragon Ball, so I came along."

Dandy was the Great Elder's 108th son. So, strictly speaking, all Namekians except the Great Elder were brothers. However, due to their age difference, the older ones naturally became elders. Thus, although the Third Elder was Dandy's brother, he was more like a grandfather.

Nail looked at the Third Elder walking behind him. Facing his clansman, Nail couldn't suppress the smile on his face. "Third Elder, long time no see."

"Yes, Nail. Is the Great Elder well?"

"Very well, he's inside!"

The Third Elder handed the Dragon Ball to Nail and walked towards the house.

"Brother Nail, I'm going to see the Great Elder first," Dandy said and ran inside.

"Nail, let me see the Dragon Ball!" Krillin's eyes gleamed, and he said excitedly to Nail.

Nail smiled. "What's the rush? One Dragon Ball can't do anything yet. We need all seven." Nail then handed the Dragon Ball to Krillin.

"I know that, of course, but such a large Dragon Ball has truly piqued my curiosity." Krillin took the large Dragon Ball.

Krillin examined the Dragon Ball, which was the size of a basketball. It was crystal clear, with three stars twinkling on it. "Haha, it's a three-star ball. It really is bigger and stronger."

The Third Elder entered the house and looked at the aged Kami with some doubt. He had no recollection of him and had never heard of Namekians living outside of Planet Namek. Mulin suppressed his curiosity and greeted the Great Elder.

"Great Elder," the Third Elder said respectfully, bowing.

The Great Elder opened his eyes and looked at Mulin. "Mulin, you're here. Sit down."

Mulin casually found a seat, but he continued to observe Kami, who also looked at Mulin somewhat awkwardly.

Another day passed, and all the elders had arrived. The Great Elder sat at the head and slowly began to speak. "This young man comes from distant Earth and wishes to borrow the Dragon Balls. I foresee that he will help Planet Namek overcome a great difficulty in the future."

Since the Great Elder had spoken, there were naturally no objections from those below. When the elders entered the house, they had already given the Dragon Ball to Nail.

"There is one more thing. This is a Namekian from Earth. Today, he is finally returning to his ancestral home. His father is Kadatz," the Great Elder said in a gentle tone.

"What? He's Kadatz's child?" The elders below were somewhat surprised.

"Kadatz was a very outstanding Dragon Clan member. The Great Elder said he sent his child to another planet. I never thought his child would actually survive." The elders seemed incredulous, but Kami was standing right in front of them.

The elders stepped forward together, looking at Kami.

Kami was a little nervous, and small beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Facing the elders' gazes, Kami was somewhat at a loss.

The elders said in unison, "Welcome home!" Hahaha, everyone burst into laughter. Another outstanding Dragon Clan warrior had appeared, which was truly a great joy for the Namekians.

After gathering all seven Dragon Balls, Krillin pulled Nail towards the distant wasteland, flying away so as not to disturb the Great Elder's rest.

Nail placed the Dragon Balls on the ground. Nail glanced at Krillin, who nodded slightly.

Suddenly, Nail shouted, "Come out, Shenron!" (in Namekian)

The scene was similar to summoning Shenron on Earth. The seven Dragon Balls flickered with increasing frequency. The sky was covered by dark clouds, and lightning illuminated the land. The difference was that the darkness on Planet Namek was more intense than on Earth.

"Roar!"

A loud dragon roar echoed through the sky. Thunder rumbled in the darkness, and golden lightning, like angry dragons, weaved through the clouds.

Golden light surged from the Dragon Balls, winding its way into the sky and gradually merging with the sea of clouds. Another dragon roar sounded.

In the sky, the endless sea of dark clouds revealed the enormous body of a green dragon. The dragon's eyes emitted a fiery red glow as it looked down at Nail and Piccolo. The Namekian Shenron was much uglier than the Earth Shenron.

"State your wish. Any wish can be granted, but I can only grant three." Porunga's voice was even more ancient than Earth's Shenron.

Nail was somewhat stunned by Porunga's imposing presence. He had never seen Porunga before. "So this is Porunga?" Nail thought excitedly.

Krillin found it difficult to choose the three wishes. He had already decided on two: Instant Transmission + a cosmic star chart. The remaining wish was whether to enhance the "Senzu Bean Plantation" or learn the divine language. The former could increase his energy income, while the latter concerned his future. Without the divine language, even if the Super Dragon Balls were placed before him, he wouldn't have the chance to use them, which was truly a dilemma.

"Ding, now you know the importance of mastering a foreign language, hehe. I know the divine language. Do you know how to choose now?" The System said again, with a slightly cheeky tone.

After hearing the System's words, Krillin's eyes lit up. "Then there are no problems."

"My first wish, Nail, is for Shenron to help me perfect the Senzu Bean Plantation as much as possible." Here, Krillin had exploited a loophole, phrasing it so that Shenron would do his utmost to grant the wish.

Nail repeated Krillin's words to Shenron.

"This wish is incredibly simple." A red light flashed in Shenron's eyes, but it lingered for a long time. Porunga broke out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself, I've been tricked, this brat is quite something. After a long while, the wish was granted. "I have expanded the scale of the Senzu Bean Plantation and created a special space within your mind as a vessel to contain it."

Krillin felt a new, special mental mark appear in his spiritual power. He used his spiritual power to communicate with it, and it surged into the Senzu Bean Plantation. Its scale had expanded more than fivefold, and the speed at which it absorbed vital energy had also increased significantly. Although Porunga wasn't much to look at, Krillin appreciated people who got things done. He couldn't help but give Porunga a mental thumbs-up.

"State your second wish," the ancient voice echoed in their ears once more.
