Greatly Increased Strength

A Major Increase in Strength

As Gine and Selari ate the fruits, amid repeated exclamations of how delicious they were, the special power contained within the fruits cleansed their bodies and strengthened them in only a short time.

Just by sensing their energy, Talot knew that both of them had improved greatly.

Even if they had not improved as much as he had, they had definitely surpassed 100 points.

Using the Battle Power Detector to scan them, Talot obtained the precise figures after only a brief moment.

Gine: Battle Power 830 points, an increase of 130 points.

Selari: Battle Power 440 points, an increase of 150 points.

"This is incredible! Is this really the power I have now? Brother Talot, my Battle Power has reached 440 points already! And my perception of energy is getting clearer and clearer too." Selari was so excited that she could not stop smiling.

In her mind, she was a Low-Class Warrior and could never compare to an Elite Warrior.

Yet although she was still inferior to those exceptionally gifted Elite Warriors, anyone her age with this level of Battle Power would undoubtedly be considered an Elite Warrior.

Put simply, such a number was nearly impossible among Low-Class Warriors, especially when Selari was only five years old.

"I never expected even my Battle Power to break through by so much in one go." Gine sighed emotionally. Her Battle Power had only been 600 before, and it had not changed in all these years. Yet in just two months, it had successively broken through to 840 points.

Was she lucky? She certainly was!

But she felt that Talot had brought her this luck. If she had not come along with him, if she had remained on Planet Vegeta, then she would still be the same as before.

"Aunt Gine, Selari, can you still eat?"

Just as Gine and Selari were excitedly examining themselves, Talot spoke again.

The first time had produced this effect, so they had to try a second time.

After all, they had no idea how long these fruits could be stored. Regardless of the effects, it was best to eat them as soon as possible.

Gine and Selari nodded at his words. Talot did not hesitate either, quickly taking out more Blood Fruits from the Spaceship.

The second tasting was simpler and more straightforward than the first.

Since they already knew the flavor and the fruits' effects, they ate them even more decisively.

Talot: Battle Power 1580 points.

Gine: Battle Power 900 points.

Selari: Battle Power 510 points.

Just as I thought, eating them consecutively definitely results in different gains! I just don't know whether the effect has weakened, or if there's another reason. Talot silently pondered as he analyzed the situation.

He considered many possibilities. The first was that their strength had increased and their bodies had become stronger.

For example, increasing from 100 Battle Power to 200 Battle Power was indeed an increase of 100 points.

But put another way, after reaching 1000 Battle Power, increasing by those same 100 points might only represent a gain of several dozen points at the 1000-point level.

The fruits' effects might weaken the more one ate them, but judging by the feedback from their bodies after eating the Blood Fruits twice, there had not been much change. So the former explanation was more likely.

Afterward, they ate a third fruit, and their Battle Power rose once again.

Naturally, the increase this time declined further.

The third time, the absorption of the fruit's energy was clearly far less intense than during the first two times.

So the effect had indeed weakened, or rather, their bodies had developed a resistance to the Blood Fruits.

After that, Talot, Gine, and Selari did not continue eating the fruits.

For one thing, they did not feel hungry at all. Instead, their Bellies were full after eating three fruits in succession. This proved that Gine had been right about the fruits relieving hunger. Otherwise, considering a Saiyan's appetite, three fruits alone would not have been enough.

For another, Talot had an idea he wanted to test.

That was, after intense exercise—or after their bodies had rapidly expended energy—would eating Blood Fruits increase their effects?

Just like that, without realizing it, Talot, Gine, and Selari had already spent several days in the Deep Valley.

The twenty-four fruits were eaten by the three of them over several meals.

All three of their strengths improved tremendously.

Talot's Battle Power reached 1850 points.

Gine's Battle Power broke through the 1000-point mark, reaching 1120 points.

Finally, Selari's improvement was actually the most noticeable. Her Battle Power had now reached 890 points.

Today was the eighth day since they had arrived on this planet.

Within the Deep Valley, Talot was engaged in combat Training with Gine and Selari.

Everyone's strength had increased tremendously in a short period, with each of them gaining nearly five hundred points or more.

Their strength had risen too quickly. Without basic Training or combat, this power would soon decline.

It was not only to consolidate their own strength, but also to help Gine and Selari grow stronger, so they would not merely possess all this power without knowing how to bring it out fully.

The facts proved that Talot had completely underestimated Gine.

All this time, he had thought Aunt Gine only handled logistics and had nearly forgotten how she fought.

To his surprise, not only was her actual combat ability far from low, but when their strength was evenly matched, Talot could even find himself being suppressed by her.

Of course, that might have had something to do with the difference in their builds. After all, Aunt Gine was an adult, while no matter how well Talot developed, he was only around 1.3 meters tall.

As for Selari, her performance was equally outstanding.

In the end, Talot felt that he was actually the weakest link.

Although their strength truly could not compare to his, if he measured himself against the time when he had possessed their current Battle Power, he really had been inferior to them.

With that thought in mind, Talot began training himself even more diligently.

Ki Cultivation insights came first, followed by physical conditioning, move practice, combat Training, and more...

After the fight, the three of them washed their faces briefly by the stream and rested.

"As expected of Aunt Gine. You're getting stronger and stronger. If my Battle Power weren't higher, I wouldn't be a match for you at all," Talot praised.

"I'm not as amazing as you say, Talot. Auntie knows you were only helping Selari and me improve our strength. Still, I never imagined we could become this strong," Aunt Gine said.

Hearing Talot praise Aunt Gine, Selari became jealous and started acting cute.

It had to be said that Selari had become more and more uninhibited lately.

Sometimes, her actions were so intimate that Talot was not used to them.

Perhaps that was simply the difference between men and women.

If a man touched a woman here and there, it was called sexual harassment.

But if a woman kept touching a man, hugging and clinging to him, and he disliked it, then he was called tactless.

What Talot did not know was that although he had once found Selari troublesome, after gradually getting used to her, he no longer resisted her.
