Age 774, Warriors of the New Generation

Main Timeline world.

Age 774.

Seventeen years have passed since Talot left this world.

Over the past seventeen years, a great deal has happened on Earth, and the world has changed dramatically.

From the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament until Bardock's return from another time and space ten years later.

And now.

If you calculate the time, it's right around the time the Majin Buu Saga begins.

Today is a special day.

Taros, the son of Talot, and Son Gohan, the son of Son Goku, both came to attend Orange Star High School in Mr. Satan City.

After the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, Chi-Chi and Son Goku naturally got together and had Son Gohan.

Although Taros is a year older than Son Gohan, this did not prevent them from enrolling in the same class.

As for the origin of Mr. Satan City, it can be said that Talot changed the past landscape, but the trajectory of this world's development eventually circled back to its origin.

After Talot left, all the warriors chose to go into seclusion and no longer appeared in public. As a result, Mr. Satan became the Champion of the 24th World Martial Arts Tournament, just like in the original story, and even became the world Champion of the emerging professional fighting world.

Mr. Satan was at the height of his power. Even with the history of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, the public's memory of it had long been forgotten after ten years, and it had become a thing of the past.

After Bardock returned, the Androids incident broke out, and Cell also appeared. Although the development of events was different from the original story, and Cell was not comparable to the Cell in the original story, he was eventually defeated by the warriors.

Mr. Satan successfully rose to power during this period and, just as in the original story, became the world's savior in the eyes of the people.

Ultimately, everyone was initially averse to it, even though the soldiers weren't interested in empty fame.

But who can accept having their credit stolen by someone else? You have to understand, the big guys in this time and space world are no pushovers.

Raditz and Nappa would never accept it, let alone the younger generation; they were all even more ambitious.

Fortunately, Bulma intervened in the end, which resolved Mr. Satan's embarrassing crisis and reassured everyone.

Bulma believed that Mr. Satan could become the apparent savior and do things to stabilize the world and maintain peace.

At least Mr. Satan is indeed quite eloquent and persuasive; he can single-handedly run a pyramid scheme and gain the trust of the entire population.

Bulma is not stupid; she wouldn't help Mr. Satan for nothing. On the surface, Mr. Satan is the savior, but he is also under their control, helping the warriors solve all their needs.

The warriors want to live a better life on Earth, and with Mr. Satan's help, Bulma doesn't need to do everything herself.

Of course, there was another important reason why Bulma helped Mr. Satan: Mr. Satan had a good daughter who became very good friends with his son.

Back then, Taros was just a boy. Finding it interesting, he secretly participated in the Martial Arts Tournament with his sister Tarola. However, they were too young, so they only competed in the junior division, where they encountered Videl as a young girl...

If Talot knew about this, he would definitely be surprised, because Videl was Son Gohan's wife in the original story, but now she has become his daughter-in-law.

"You're really in good spirits, Gohan, unlike me... The thought of being stuck in school for almost three years makes me feel terrible..." Taros said to Son Gohan, yawning and looking listless.

Son Gohan to the side, was already used to Taros's behavior, after all, they had grown up together over the years.

"I think you should listen to Aunt Bulma. To be honest, if you weren't always so irresponsible, Aunt Bulma wouldn't have let you come to school. This time, she's given you a strict order: you must get your diploma..."

"Let me tell you, you better not run away again, or I won't be able to explain... Also, Videl is studying here too, so don't always act so lazy, it's really awful. If you're still the same as before, and if Sister Tarola finds out you haven't changed at all, she'll beat your butt so badly."

Just as Son Gohan finished speaking, Taros shivered.

"Alright, alright, stop talking. I'm really unlucky. I don't know how I ever offended Videl. She watches me like I'm a prisoner every day..." Taros looked worried.

The attraction that develops in adolescence initially stems from curiosity about each other. This feeling comes quickly and goes quickly, especially as one gets to know the other better.

"Don't talk to Videl like that. She's doing it for your own good. Don't you like her? I've seen you get jealous of other people confessing to Videl several times... Ugh~!" Before Son Gohan could finish his teasing, Taros covered his mouth.

"I only saw her as a younger sister..." Taros was on the verge of tears.

"Really? Then I'll tell Videl that you don't like her," Son Gohan teased.

These words immediately infuriated Taros: "No, no, no... Oh, never mind, I know what I'm doing."

Seeing Son Gohan smiled but said nothing.

Having spent so many years together, growing up together, how could he not understand Taros? How could Taros not like Videl? It's just that Taros was too self-indulgent and always felt that Videl was restricting him.

To put it simply, Taros is the kind of person who wouldn't panic even if the sky were to fall, and he doesn't like being constantly pressured by others to do anything.

Of course, he really goes when there's a problem, and he never hesitates or drags his feet.

In short, if he's willing, he'll do it without being urged, but if he's not willing, he'll show impatience.

Is Taros stupid? No! Son Gohan knows perfectly well that Taros is a super genius.

He inherited Aunt Bulma's genius mind and has now learned nearly 70% of Bulma essence. His knowledge base is like a human computer.

If we're really comparing his achievements, Taros would far surpass him.

Seeing Taros maintain his expressionless face, Son Gohan could only shake his head helplessly.

There's always someone who can overcome something else; he was at his wit's end.

Compared to Taros, his sister Tarola was more positive and optimistic.

Son Gohan has always admired Tarola and even developed special feelings for her.

Not only did they achieve good results, but their overall strength has also remained consistently high.

Despite Taros's constant claims that his sister is a single-celled organism and a violent woman!

But Son Gohan felt that it was about being competitive and not wanting to lose to anyone.

Some people believe beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but Tarola certainly treated Son Gohan differently.

It was Son Gohan's shyness, honesty, maturity, and composure that made Tarola look at him differently, unlike Treep, the son of Taros and Raditz, who always had a cynical and irreverent attitude.

They arrived at A Grade Class 1, where Son Gohan and Taros met the old professor who was waiting for them at the classroom door.

After exchanging a few brief greetings, the old professor opened the classroom door and went inside.

The old professor already knew about these two people.

One of them is the son of the director of the world's richest Capsule Corporation. The other has an equally impressive family background and excels in all subjects, making him a top student.

Upon entering the classroom, the old professor coughed lightly twice, calming the somewhat chaotic atmosphere inside.

"Alright, I'm sure everyone has been waiting for this long."

"Today, we have two very special transfer students in our class. I hope everyone can get along well and learn from these two students. I'd like to let you know in advance that both of these students have excellent grades in all subjects, especially one of them, who has straight A's in all subjects."

As the old professor finished speaking, a commotion broke out in the classroom.

Videl, who was sitting in the back row, already knew that Son Gohan and Taros would be coming, and sat quietly in her seat.

There were two seats next to her, which she had prepared in advance.

"You may come in now."

At this call, Taros and Son Gohan walked in from outside.

Son Gohan was very reserved. He usually stayed at home and didn't have much contact with people. This was also his first time coming to school.

Taros, on the other hand, didn't seem to care at all. He'd seen it all before, so he was completely unconcerned.

He's just going to school; he's already planned to coast through three years and get a diploma to show for it.

"Taros, Son Gohan, please introduce yourselves."

The old professor nodded solemnly to the two of them.

"Hello everyone, my Son Gohan. Please take care of me from now on."

"Taros, the teacher has already said the names, so there's no need to say anything more."

The two have completely different styles and are two completely different types.

However, both of them were very handsome and tall, which made them extremely attractive to the girls in the class who were going through puberty.

"Okay. Now, just find any seats you like. It's your first day of class, and I hope you can adapt quickly." The old professor nodded to the two of them again, granting them this privilege.

Generally, the location is fixed and assigned by the teacher.

However, the two were not of ordinary status and had excellent academic performance, which was a privilege.

"Taros, Son Gohan, over here." Before Taros and Son Gohan could make a choice, Videl from the back seat stood up and waved.

The fact that Videl took the initiative to speak and show goodwill surprised the classmates, after all, Videl was the daughter of Mr. Satan, the savior.

Son Gohan nodded first and went up, with Taros following closely behind.

And so, Taros and Son Gohan's high school life began.

At the same time.

West City.

Blue Hal High School.

Tarola was absentmindedly fiddling with the pen in her hand, pondering the situation of her younger brother and Son Gohan.

They were both supposed to attend Blue Hal High School, but Son Gohan chose Orange Star High School instead. After much deliberation, the two mothers decided that Taros could go to Mr. Satan City with Son Gohan, which would also allow Taros and Videl to get to know each other better. And so, this is the situation we have now.

[I wonder if he's caused any trouble. If that kid doesn't behave, he needs to be taught a lesson.] Tarola thought to herself.

Sitting next to her at that moment was Treep, Raditz's son.

Although they are a year apart, this does not prevent them from attending the same grade or even the same class.

The reason Raditz did this in the first place was because he had a little scheme to have his son bring Tarola, a pure-blooded Saiyan, home.

After all, Tarola is the daughter of Talot and Selari, and has the purest bloodline, not to mention her talent and potential.

Contrary to expectations, her son was disappointing, and Tarola looked down on Treep, treating Treep like a lackey all along.

Over the years, their relationship has long been established, and their elders can no longer play any role in helping them to strengthen their bond.

Raditz was pleased that although his own son was useless, his brother Kakarot's son Son Gohan, was very close to Tarola, despite the four-year age difference, which was not a problem at all.

Feeling Tarola's gaze upon him, Treep shuddered and shivered.

The bloodline suppression from the eldest sister was unbearable for everyone except Son Gohan.

The Capsule Corp private residence estate.

Inside that huge round house, Bulma and Selari were having breakfast and drinking morning tea.

Over the years, neither woman has aged.

Without a doubt, this is the result of their wish to remain young, made with the help of Shenron god.

At the same time, they consumed a lot of the Tree of Might, which had a great nourishing effect in the early stages, keeping their bodies in the youngest and most perfect state.

"That Taros kid is probably complaining about you behind your back right now, Bulma," Selari said with a laugh after taking a sip of her tea.

"He's been spoiled since he was little, and he always seems to owe me something. This time, I'm going to be ruthless. Don't let that kid fool you. He has to study hard for the next three years," Bulma said, sounding a little disappointed.

Upon hearing this, Selari nodded.

Although he is not her son, he still calls her "Mom" and is Talot's son. He has always been very doting on her and indulged her every whim when she was a child.

She treated Taros better than Bulma, to the point that Taros would confide in her about all his troubles.

In contrast, Selari treated Tarola differently, perhaps because they were related.

Bulma was the one who was nicer to Tarola, and they talked about everything.

Sometimes the two of them would joke with each other, wishing they could switch places.

Of course, that's just what they say; for both of them, their children are their top priority.

As they talked, their expressions darkened again.

"So many years have passed, why hasn't Brother Talot returned yet?" Selari asked with a worried expression, having said this countless times before.

"Who knows? It's been seventeen years. We asked Whis and Shenron, but all we found out was that he didn't die..." Bulma with a hint of resentment.

At first, I didn't have any major thoughts, just worries, and an urgent desire for Talot to come back quickly.

She was filled with anticipation until Bardock returned.

But seven years passed after that.

These seven years have brought about significant changes in her heart, so it's impossible for her not to have any complaints.
