Awakening Kid Goku's potential

On Korin Tower.

After eating the Senzu Bean, Kid Goku recovered his health.

But he was not happy, because Korin told him that Chiaotzu of the Crane School had died in battle, and his master, Master Roshi, had also sacrificed himself in the sealing operation.

An angry and sorrowful Kid Goku asked, "Korin, is there really no way to defeat King Piccolo?"

Korin, leaning on his cane, said solemnly, "Actually, there is a way."

Kid Goku was overjoyed and grabbed Korin, demanding, "What's the plan?"

The Korin replied, "The first method is the Ultra Divine Water, not the tap water that fooled people before, but a truly miraculous potion that can unleash potential."

Kid Goku excitedly grabbed Korin and shook him. "What are you waiting for? Give it to me!"

The Korin smacked him on the head with his cane and shouted, "Nonsense! The Ultra Divine Water is highly poisonous. Drinking it might unleash your potential, but it could also kill you!"

Yajirobe was rummaging through drawers and cupboards looking for food, was startled. "Poisonous?"

Because Shazo robbed Korin Tower in advance, he avoided the Bad Luck of almost bursting his stomach after eating Senzu Bean.

Upon hearing that the Ultra Divine Water was highly poisonous, he immediately asked, "Has anyone ever drunk the Ultra Divine Water before? How many people have successfully unleashed their potential?"

The Korin replied somberly, "No, not a single one. Everyone who drank the Ultra Divine Water is dead."

Yajirobe's expression changed drastically, and he jumped up to stop Kid Goku: "Not a single one survived! This isn't some kind of Ultra Divine Water; it's deadly poison!"

Korin explained, "No, no, the Ultra Divine Water is a treasure passed down from ancient times; it's absolutely genuine."

Still starving, Yajirobe was in a terrible mood. He grinned and said, "So many years have passed, and not a single person has survived. How can you prove what you're saying is true?"

"Besides, even if the Ultra Divine Water is real, after so many years, isn't it possible that it has spoiled?"

The Korin stared in disbelief, muttering to himself, "Spoiled? Could it really have spoiled? All these years, everyone who tried the Ultra Divine Water has died... this, this—"

Kid Goku was also shocked by the fact that the success rate was 0%. He was willing to risk his life to take revenge, but he didn't want to drink poison and commit suicide.

It took the Korin a long time to compose himself. He sighed and said again, "Now there's only one other way: to ask someone for help."

Yajirobe and Kid Goku were greatly surprised and asked at the same time, "Are you asking for help?"

The Korin nodded and said, "Yes, go and beg that person for help!"

"There is also a powerful warrior living on Earth, whose strength is unparalleled, and who can even easily defeat King Piccolo."

Yajirobe said incredulously, "Nonsense! How could anyone easily defeat King Piccolo? How is that possible?"

Kid Goku, however, was overjoyed and jumped up, shouting, "Who is this person? Where does he live? I'll go ask him right now!"

The Korin didn't actually want Kid Goku to drink the Ultra Divine Water, so he completely exposed the situation of Shazo.

It also thoughtfully summoned a large Flying Nimbus, allowing Kid Goku to regain his ability to fly quickly.

An hour and a half later, a chattering little Monkey jumped down in front of Shazo, who had just finished feeding the livestock.

"Are you Mr. Shazo?"

"I am Son Goku, Master Roshi's disciple."

"Korin said you are very powerful and could easily defeat King Piccolo, please—"

"Huh? You have a tail too!"

Are you one of my people?

Shazo really liked Kid Goku, and even thought he deserved the name "Son Goku" (Monkey King), unlike the Four-Tails Monkey the Naruto World.

But he didn't expect that Kid Goku would be such a chatterbox, just like Spider-Man!

So Shazo loosened the tail that was wrapped around his waist, and lashed out like a tiger's tail, instantly wrapping it around Kid Goku's mouth and stopping his incessant chatter.

Shazo rubbed his temples and said, "Now, shut up and listen to me."

"First, I am Saiyan, and so are you."

"Secondly, I won't go and fight King Piccolo; it's too beneath me."

"Thirdly, considering we're both Saiyan, I'll increase your strength so you can personally defeat King Piccolo."

If you understand, nod.

Kid Goku couldn't speak, but his head was nodding like a chick pecking at rice.

This kid is a complete battle maniac; he won't rely on anyone else to avenge himself if he can do it himself.

Releasing his tail, Kid Goku happily exclaimed, "So, Uncle and I are both Saiyan!"

The next moment, he asked in confusion, "But who are Saiyan?"

A second later, he asked anxiously, "What should I do to increase my strength? Can I really Teuchi King Piccolo with my own hands?"

Shazo grunted in agreement, beckoned his servants, handed them the tools he was holding, and then instructed them to prepare a sumptuous meal.

"Double the amount of food for dinner tonight, and make it all meat."

"Yes, whatever the form, prepare as much meat as possible."

"Don't worry, dinner will begin in a few hours, and the chef will have plenty of time to prepare."

The town's richest man dismissed his servant, beckoned to Kid Goku to follow him, and headed towards the woods on one side of the Farm.

In the woods was an Heavenly Dao he practiced and cultivated, with solid ground and high walls, enough to keep out the prying eyes of others.

No one expected that the moment Kid Goku entered the dojo, Shazo would raise his hand and unleash his Qi Force without warning.

The Qi Force pierced through Kid Goku's chest and abdomen with lightning speed.

Blood gushed from the transparent wounds, but it did not damage any vital organs and would not cause immediate death; the patient would only die from excessive blood loss.

The Ultra Divine Water" on Korin Tower is, in essence, just a bottle of poison.

Fortunately, Kid Goku's physique was strong; he survived the entire night only to be on the verge of death rather than dying instantly from the poison. This allowed Kid Goku to fully experience the terror of death, which stimulated the Saiyan's Talent for becoming stronger when near death.

His enormous potential was unleashed, forcibly removing the poison and suppressing the poison-related injuries, which created the illusion that the Ultra Divine Water could stimulate his potential.

Rather than letting Kid Goku suffer the torment of poison all night and experience death, it's better to let him experience death by bleeding more directly, thus stimulating his potential more quickly and effectively.

Moreover, Shazo possesses Senzu Bean, which can completely heal physical injuries without leaving serious aftereffects like poison.

Shazo suspected that Son Goku's inexplicable Heart Virus later on was very likely related to the torment he experienced that night.

He had considered things very well for Kid Goku, but this sudden and fatal attack surprised both Korin and Kami, who witnessed it. It took them a long time to realize that it might be a way to unleash some kind of potential.

Even the most knowledgeable immortals and Kami were taken aback, let alone the inexperienced Kid Goku.

He was completely terrified by Shazo's attack. He stared blankly at his bleeding wound for a long time before his muddled mind finally came up with the wrong answer.

"You... you're also Demon Race?"

Shazo rolled his eyes, said nothing, and focused on observing Kid Goku's condition, his right hand already holding a Senzu Bean.

Kid Goku was very strong, but the large wound on his chest that was bleeding profusely quickly weakened him, causing him to collapse uncontrollably to the ground.

Soon he felt Mr. Popo of weakness washing over him, like a tidal wave threatening to engulf him, making him feel cold all over and causing him to convulse involuntarily.

Then, Kid Goku's mind began to go numb, gradually sinking into a blank.

In just over ten minutes, he truly experienced death.

But Kid Goku was unwilling to die. He hadn't avenged his friends and Master Roshi yet; how could he just die like this?

Even as darkness gradually enveloped his vision, he continued to struggle, desperately trying to survive.

Although he already knew that Kid Goku was determined, Shazo was still shocked by Kid Goku's tenacity.

When Kid Goku lost his five senses due to excessive blood loss, Shazo stopped acting.

He flipped Kid Goku over, stuffed the Senzu Bean into his mouth, and used his ki to send it down his esophagus.

The moment Shazo dissipated his ki, the Senzu Bean's healing ability took effect, and the near-death Kid Goku instantly recovered and sat up abruptly.

Unlike when he ate the Senzu Bean on Korin Tower, this time he truly struggled on the brink of death. Even though his body recovered, his mind was still immersed in the feeling of death and had not yet broken free.

Therefore, Kid Goku looks completely dazed.

But the energy emanating from him was growing wildly, displaying an unbelievable surge of grandeur and unprecedented activity.

Korin and the Kami breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Kid Goku's ki had grown far too much, even surpassing King Piccolo's ki, a situation that far exceeded their expectations.

But when they thought about what Shazo said— that Kid Goku and he were of the same race, both being aliens called Saiyan —they realized it made sense.

They all guessed that this method of beating someone to the brink of death and then healing them was a unique Saiyan way of unleashing their potential.

This realization left Korin completely bewildered. He looked at the Ultra Divine Water he had found, his eyes filled with doubt and insecurity.

Now he could no longer be sure that the treasures passed down through the ages were truly treasures.

Perhaps this stuff was a deadly poison from the very beginning.

Or perhaps it's expired or spoiled due to being stored for an unknown number of years?

Korin fell into deep self-doubt.

The Kami sighed with relief, "Finally, finally there is a warrior capable of defeating King Piccolo."

Mr. Popo asked worriedly, "But it's innate; if King Piccolo dies, will you also—"

The Kami shook his head. "King Piccolo is a manifestation of my sins; all the evil he committed must be considered a part of my sins."

"Whatever the consequences may be, it's what I deserve."

Mr. Popo stopped talking and just sighed deeply.

The Kami's gaze fell upon the Royal Palace, glanced at King Piccolo, and then carefully compared Kid Goku's ki. His approval and trust in Shazo increased even more.

On the other side, Shazo reached out and grabbed the bewildered Kid Goku by the tail, dragging the Monkey into his beautiful big house.

His servants and cooks had already prepared a sumptuous dinner.

The living room/dining room has a huge dining table, which is piled high with food, ninety-nine percent of which is meat.

Smelling the enticing aroma of meat, the bewildered Kid Goku finally snapped out of his daze. Even though he was limp and powerless because his tail had been grabbed, he still struggled with his hands and feet.

Senzu Bean can heal injuries and fill your stomach, but they are ultimately not as good as real food.

Saiyan possess formidable fighting Talent, all built upon their insatiable appetite. After Kid Goku experienced a true near-death experience, which fully unleashed his potential, his body's craving for food became absolutely insane.

Shazo muttered, "Seriously, not only do we have to lose a Senzu Bean, but we also have to lose our dinner."

"Fine, you got off easy, kid."

After saying that, he tossed Kid Goku toward his dining table.

Kid Goku was already completely mesmerized by the aroma. Without the slightest resistance, he glided towards the food, propelled by the force of Shazo's throw, and began to devour it frantically, howling "Awoo!"

An hour later, the mountain of food was completely devoured. Kid Goku, clutching his belly with both hands, lay down on the messy table with a satisfied expression.

Shazo, looking disgusted, Electromagnetic Force to grab him, took him to the bathroom, and threw him into the bathtub.

Having eaten and drunk his fill, Kid Goku was now clear-headed and fully understood that Shazo's sudden attack on him was not meant to harm him, but rather a special method to unleash his potential.

In particular, he could feel his own energy had increased at least fivefold, giving him absolute confidence in defeating King Piccolo, which filled him with gratitude towards Shazo.

Furthermore, Kid Goku discovered that even though he was now incredibly strong, at least stronger than King Piccolo, he was utterly powerless against Shazo.

Therefore, in addition to his gratitude, he also developed admiration and great trust in him.

He believed that whatever Shazo did was genuinely for his own good.

So, when Kid Goku was thrown into the bathroom, he obediently took a bath and cleaned himself up, unlike on Korin Tower when he was frantically talking about revenge.

After washing up, Kid Goku put on clean clothes and walked out of the bathroom, only to find that the servants had already cleaned the dining room, and Shazo was sitting in Ikkaku of the dining room drinking tea.

Shazo was very satisfied with Kid Goku's performance.

This is the main protagonist of the Dragon Ball World, the strongest warrior in the future Universe, an existence who can turn the tide even when the weak defeat the strong.

Moreover, Kid Goku is kind-hearted and grateful, so any investment in him, no matter how large, is worthwhile.

Shazo put down his teacup and said, "Piccolo won't be setting off to destroy the West City until tomorrow. Instead of rushing to the Royal Palace now, why don't you stay here for the night and get some rest?"

"Wait until dawn tomorrow before you set off for the Royal Palace to kill King Piccolo."
