"Great, we can come back to life too!"

Upon hearing this, North Kai immediately danced around with Bubbles and the others.

Before they could jump more than a few times, the halos above their heads disappeared.

"Lord Kai, the halo above your head is gone too!"

"Is that so?"

North Kai was delighted when he heard that.

"In a few days, I'll go find West Kai and the others and show off properly! They've always made fun of me over this!"

Son Goku gave an awkward laugh.

"Then, Lord Kai, I'll head back now?"

North Kai smiled and nodded.

After rejoicing for a while, North Kai looked at the damaged North Kai's Planet before him and immediately sighed.

Then he began filling in the holes on Kaioshin Planet.

Earth, Kami's Lookout.

After Gohan and the others made their two wishes, they made no more and waited for Son Goku to return.

"Whoosh..."

Suddenly, a figure appeared on Kami's Lookout.

It was Son Goku.

"Goku!"

"Goku!"

"Dad!"

Everyone was overjoyed to see the revived Son Goku.

Chi-Chi especially had it hard, having raised Gohan and Son Goten by herself over the past seven years.

Son Goku smiled and nodded.

"It's been a long time. Has everyone been doing well?"

"Yeah!"

Everyone nodded.

"Goku!"

At that moment, Chi-Chi could no longer hold back her emotions and tightly embraced Son Goku.

"Chi-Chi!"

Son Goku suddenly became a little nervous when Chi-Chi hugged him like that.

Krillin and the others could not help but laugh at the sight.

When Gohan saw this, his eyes suddenly grew a little moist.

If he had not been so reckless back then, Son Goku would not have died.

"Dad!"

Gohan called out to Son Goku.

"Gohan!"

Seeing this, Chi-Chi immediately released Son Goku from her tight embrace.

"Dad, is he Goten's dad?"

Trunks asked.

Vegeta nodded and walked toward Son Goku.

"It's been a long time, Vegeta!"

Son Goku greeted Vegeta.

"Hmph!"

Vegeta snorted coldly.

"Kakarot, the power you and Goten used wasn't Super Saiyan 2, was it?"

"That's right. It was Super Saiyan Third Grade, which surpasses Super Saiyan twice over!"

"Super Saiyan Third Grade!"

The Dragon Ball Z Warriors were shocked.

They had thought the power the two had used was Super Saiyan 2, but it turned out to be Super Saiyan Third Grade.

Vegeta clenched his teeth tightly upon hearing that.

If Son Goku's strength was only Super Saiyan 2, the gap between them would not have been too great.

But if Son Goku had reached Super Saiyan Third Grade, the difference between them was worlds apart.

"Then who won, you or Goten?"

"Goten!"

"What!"

Krillin and the others were shocked once more.

Son Goku was a martial arts genius. Even if Son Goten had mastered Super Saiyan Third Grade, Son Goku should not have lost to him with his vast combat experience.

"Could it have been... because of psychic powers?"

Gohan said.

Son Goku said, "Psychic powers?"

"Yeah, Goten has psychic powers that can make people unable to move. Didn't he use them on you?"

"No!"

Son Goku shook his head.

"Goten, have you been hiding your true strength from me all this time?"

Trunks walked over to Son Goten and asked.

"No, why would you say that?"

Son Goten replied with a guilty expression.

"Then tell me, how exactly did you train to become so strong?"

"No... I just trained a little more seriously!"

"A little more seriously?"

Trunks stared fixedly at him.

Over the past few months, he had trained extremely hard every day. Yet forget Super Saiyan Third Grade—he had not even reached Super Saiyan 2 yet.

"Then swear it. If you're lying to me, the two of us will never be friends again!"

"Fine... I swear, if I'm lying to you, the two of us will never be friends again!"

Only then did Trunks reluctantly believe him.

At that moment, Vegeta suddenly challenged Son Goku.

"Kakarot, it's been seven years. How about the two of us have a match? I also want to see your Super Saiyan Third Grade!"

"A match?"

Vegeta nodded.

"But I just finished fighting Goten, and I don't have much strength left. How about another day?"

"Fine, then I'll challenge you tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow..."

"What? Is there a problem?"

"No, no!"

Son Goku shook his head repeatedly.

If he did not agree now, Vegeta would keep pestering him.

Just then, Son Goku's stomach growled with hunger.

"To celebrate Goku's revival, how about everyone comes to my house for a party?"

Bulma suggested.

Krillin and the others exchanged glances and nodded.

Afterward, everyone left Kami's Lookout and arrived at Bulma's house.

Bulma had someone bring over a huge amount of food and held a party at home to celebrate Son Goku's revival.

Son Goku wolfed down the food, occasionally answering questions from Krillin and the others.

Once Son Goku had eaten his fill, he suddenly looked at Gohan.

"Gohan, I heard from Goten that you haven't trained at all these past few years?"

Gohan nodded somewhat sheepishly.

"That kid Gohan probably doesn't even have the strength he had when he defeated Cell back then!"

Vegeta said.

"You can't go on like this, Gohan. No matter how busy you are with school, you still need to train. Look at Goten—his strength has already surpassed his dad's!"

Gohan nodded.

The party went on for a long time, and everyone only began leaving one after another at dusk.

The next morning.

Vegeta came to Son Goku's house early in the morning to fight him, but Son Goku had gone to North Kai's place first thing in the morning.

This left Vegeta unable to challenge him.

"Kakarot!"

Vegeta clenched both fists tightly and spoke furiously in his heart.

If he still did not realize that Son Goku had played him, he would truly be an idiot.

North Kai's Planet.

"Achoo!"

Son Goku, who was training, suddenly sneezed.

Then he looked at the repaired North Kai's Planet before him and said.

"Lord Kai, you're really fast at repairing planets!"

North Kai gritted his teeth furiously upon hearing that.

"Isn't this all because of you!"

"Because of me?"

"Think about it. Every time you destroy North Kai's Planet, who's the one repairing it?"

Son Goku looked embarrassed when he heard that.

During his seven years on North Kai's Planet, he had caused North Kai's Planet to be damaged almost every day.

So... North Kai could repair North Kai's Planet so quickly entirely because practice made perfect.
