Mount Paozu is usually deserted, with many wild beasts inhabiting it. However, today, it was filled with more life due to Goku's wedding.
It was still morning, and the wedding preparations were complete. "Bulma, Yueping, Oolong, why aren't they here yet?" Krillin asked, sounding a bit anxious.
Goku scratched his head and said, "But I didn't tell them!"
"Ah? Krillin slapped his forehead. I'm so stupid, really." It was just like Goku. There was no choice. If Ox-King hadn't come to Kame Island, Krillin probably wouldn't have known either. That was just Goku's personality.
As time passed, it was time to begin.
"Master Mutian, please preside over Goku and Chi-Chi's wedding," Ox-King pleaded, prostrating himself on the ground.
Master Mutian smiled mysteriously and said, "Someone will naturally come, but they are not here yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure descended from the sky. He was wearing a Martial Arts Uniform, a flat cap, a large white mustache, and a golden halo above his head. He looked at Goku kindly.
"Grandpa! Grandpa!" Goku shouted and rushed over, throwing himself into Gohan's arms. Just as he had when he was little, he burst into tears again. The power of family was incomparably strong, and even a pure-hearted Saiyan like Goku could not avoid it.
"Good boy, don't cry. Grandpa is very happy to see you grow into an adult today," Gohan said, looking at Goku with a kind and benevolent expression.
"Grandpa, didn't you come back once already? Isn't it true that people can only come back once?" Goku asked, a little confused.
At this moment, Baba slowly floated down and said slowly, "Originally, everyone could only come back once. But Goku, you defeated King Piccolo and saved the world, greatly reducing King Yama's workload. My junior brother also told me in advance that you were getting married, so your grandpa and I discussed it, and we came back today. King Yama specially approved it."
As Goku's grandfather, Gohan was naturally the most qualified to preside.
As time passed, it was time for the wedding. At this moment, Goku, dressed in a black tuxedo and a white tie, was slowly walking towards everyone. Chi-Chi, on the other hand, was wearing a pure white wedding dress, her hair down, her arm tightly clasped around Goku's, a sweet smile on her face.
The wedding was proceeding smoothly... With a burst of cheers, the wedding reached its conclusion.
"Goku, Chi-Chi is a good daughter-in-law. You must live well and strive to have a big, healthy grandson for Grandpa soon," Gohan said with a laugh.
Chi-Chi, being a young girl who had not experienced much, her small face instantly turned red, and she whispered softly, "Grandpa!"
"Goku, I have to go now."
Goku extended his hands as if wanting to hug his grandfather, but he never did.
This action did not escape Gohan's eyes. Gohan stepped forward and hugged Goku. "Silly child, I know you can't bear to part with Grandpa. Grandpa will watch you from heaven. Grandpa has never left you."
"Mmm-hmm!" Goku nodded, crying.
After a moment, Grandpa had to leave. He walked towards Master Mutian and bowed. "Master Mutian, please take care of Goku."
Master Mutian nodded without saying anything.
"Baba, let's go." In an instant, Gohan and Baba's figures disappeared from everyone's sight.
The next day, "Master Mutian, you guys go back first. I want to go train. Staying on Kame Island for too long is always a bit boring," Krillin said seriously.
"Krillin, you little rascal, don't run! Where are the beauties? I'll beat you to death!"
Krillin laughed heartily, "Master Mutian, would you have come if I hadn't said that?"
Krillin stayed behind.
He had to take advantage of these few days to grind his Battle Power. Krillin chuckled, "Sorry, Goku!"
"Goku, let's fight."
And so, Krillin and Goku sparred for three consecutive days. When they were hungry, they hunted in the mountains; when they were thirsty, they drank from mountain springs.
Krillin's strength improved daily.

Meanwhile, Goku's progress was slightly slower.

"Congratulations to the host for smoothly passing the adaptation period. Energy acquisition methods have changed. The energy from ordinary prey has greatly decreased, requiring the host to find higher-level energy."
Krillin panicked. If he had no energy, wouldn't he be cast down from his pedestal? "How can I obtain high-level energy?" Krillin asked urgently.
The system pondered for a moment and said, "High-level energy ores, precious medicinal herbs from ancient years, these are all possible. However, given Earth's current development, high-level energy is scarce."
"Is there anything else?"
"Senzu Beans, as a divine healing medicine that runs through Dragon Ball, can permanently increase your energy by 500 regardless of your realm. And also, Spirit Fruit, which can restore vitality, meaning prolong life, can also permanently increase your energy by 500."
In fact, there were even higher-level energies in the universe, such as Black Stones.
"What is the Black Stone?" Krillin asked, a hint of confusion in his voice.
"It's the source of eternal power for No. 17 and No. 18. I knew you wouldn't want to part with it, so I didn't mention it," the system chuckled.
"Don't bring this up again," Krillin said, his face darkening.
The system muttered to itself, Did I say it was from the current timeline?
When your strength reaches a certain level, you can extract the Star Core from planets for cultivation. It's still too early to tell you about that.
Now that he knew his goal, things were much simpler. At least he wasn't a headless fly buzzing around aimlessly. Moving towards a target would at least double his efficiency. The path of cultivation was a long and arduous one, like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall back. Krillin constantly reminded himself not to slack off, as the consequences of laziness were beyond his ability to bear!
It was time to bid farewell to Goku. The training effects here were no longer significant. After all, his Battle Power had already surpassed Goku's. The system's energy was only enough for him to train for another 20 days. The energy provided by ordinary prey was minimal. He needed to find a new source of energy. As long as he had enough energy, he could maintain a highly efficient cultivation state.
Krillin found Goku, who was diligently training.
"Goku, I'm leaving. I've come to say goodbye," Krillin said. Goku simply nodded.
"Krillin, let's have a spar! You've gotten much stronger recently," Goku said expectantly, looking at Krillin.
Krillin shook his head and asked, "Goku, don't train for now. Why don't you take Chi-Chi out and have some fun? You just got married, after all. This is called a honeymoon."
"Honeymoon?" Goku asked, his eyes lighting up with the thought of delicious food.
"Never mind the food. Just take Chi-Chi out and have a good time. You're not allowed back for a month!"
"But this will delay my training," Goku said with a conflicted expression.
"Goku, you need to understand that a woman's prime years are only a few years. You need to cherish them. Your own youth lasts far longer than an Earthling's. Don't wait until later..." Krillin said earnestly.
Goku looked bewildered, clearly not understanding.
"Just do as I say!"
I hope this blockhead Goku will open up sooner, Krillin thought with a wry smile.
After saying goodbye to Goku, Krillin left. Just as I came, I left, carrying only a box of portable capsules.
"Haha, an adventure on a whim, starting with just my bare hands!"
