Dragon Ball, Gone!

"You think you can leave?"

Super 13 sneered, but what happened the next second left him in disbelief. Before his very eyes, Roland's figure gradually blurred and disappeared completely from his sight. Super 13's energy sensors were running wildly, but they couldn't find a trace of him.

Super 13's eyes widened, and he became furious. The duck that was almost in his grasp had flown away.

Damn it, he stared at the empty sky with a livid face, a sudden impulse to destroy the earth rising within him.

At Five Elements Mountain, Son Gohan and the others watched in stunned silence as Roland battled Super 13. This fight had shown them an even greater level of power, which had increased the pressure on them. When Roland returned to Five Elements Mountain, Son Gohan and the others surrounded him.

"Mr. Roland, what do you think of Super 13's strength? What are our chances of winning?" Son Gohan asked with a serious expression.

"Without a breakthrough, there's absolutely no chance of winning."

He was telling the truth. Super 13's advantages were too obvious. He inherited the characteristics of Android 17's strength, plus his powerful explosive force. To be honest, it would be extremely difficult for the people on Five Elements Mountain to defeat Super 13.

Son Gohan looked dejected. He was more mature than Trunks, and he had already realized from this battle that even if he and Trunks broke through their current Super Saiyan level, they would still be no match for Super 13.

"Don't be discouraged, there's always hope. By the way, why haven't you sought North Kai's help these past few years?"

Taishang Laojun said, "Since Frieza and his father were defeated, King Kai has stopped paying attention to things on Earth. According to King Kai, with a powerful warrior like Goku on Earth, we can rest easy, and he even told Goku to stop bothering him."

Son Gohan said with a wry smile, "Without King Kai's permission, King Yemma will never allow anyone to enter the Snake Way."

"North Kai is celebrating too soon. Does he really think that only Frieza and his father are the most terrifying in the universe?" Roland, somewhat speechless.

"I don't think even King Kai expected that such terrifying monsters as Android would appear on Earth," Taishang Laojun explained.

Roland shook his head. In the original story, if Goku hadn't brought the self-destructing Cell to King Kai Planet, North Kai wouldn't have known how dangerous things were on Earth. But then again, getting involved with Goku was just incredibly unlucky for North Kai.

"Forget it, I'll go to North Kai and ask for the location of New Planet Namek. First, let's revive Son Gohan!"

Roland possesses a Fusion Technique from Planet Metamor, a skill that can be practiced by two people. If Son Gohan and Trunks were to fuse, their power would likely surpass that of Gotenks in the original story, making even Super 13 a formidable opponent.

Trunks exclaimed in surprise, "There's still hope for Gohan to be resurrected?"

"That's right, there are still Dragon Ball on New Planet Namek. If Gohan is revived, even if it takes a few more years, Earth still has hope."

Master Roshi slapped his forehead, looking excited.

Roland waved his hand, letting Lazuli continue training Son Gohan, while he located the North Kai King Kai's Realm Kai resided and teleported there in a flash. After Roland left, Son Gohan and the others excitedly accepted Lazuli's training, feeling enveloped in a sense of hope.

King Kai's Realm.

This is a strange space above the Otherworld, filled with golden auspicious clouds. The entire King Kai's Realm is vast and boundless, connected to Yellow Springs Otherworld and the King Kai's Realm by a Snake Way. At the core of the King Kai's Realm, a miniature planet about 100 meters in diameter floats leisurely among the auspicious clouds.

The planet where North Kai lived was not large and was quite rudimentary. Apart from a simple hut, there were only a few trees that were not very tall. A narrow path, a little over two meters wide, circled the God Star. One of North Kai's few hobbies was driving his car around on this path.

When Roland arrived at North Kai Planet, he was subjected to ten times the gravity, but he felt nothing of it.

After taking in the scenery of King Kai Planet, Roland strolled forward and found North Kai fast asleep in a pink car.

"King Kai, wake up!" Roland called out to the North Kai.

North Kai rubbed his eyes, glancing blurry-eyed at Roland, then wiped his sunglasses and put them back on. "Strange, how come there are humans on King Kai Planet? Wait, Saiyan?!"

Startled, North Kai instantly snapped back to reality. "Kid, how did you get here? Is it Goku? Oh, Goku isn't here!"

"Goku and Vegeta are both dead."

North Kai paused for a moment, then burst into laughter as if he'd heard a joke, "How could that be? How could Goku die? He's Super Saiyan! Even Frieza wasn't his match..." Looking at Roland's serious expression, he asked doubtfully, "Uh... Goku is really dead?"

"While you weren't looking, a major disaster struck Earth. Goku fell ill and died, Vegeta, after transforming into Super Saiyan, was killed by a terrifying monster far more horrifying than Frieza. Now, Earth has become a Purgatory."

"Oh my god, you can't be serious, can you?!"

North Kai was startled by Roland's words and hurriedly jumped out of the car. He looked towards Earth for a while, and after a moment, he looked as if he had lost his parents and cried out, "How could this be? We just defeated Frieza, and now an even more terrifying one has appeared! Why is my territory plagued by so many disasters!"

"Uh, Saiyan..."

"My name is Roland," Roland said.

"Alright, Saiyan named Roland, what brings you here? I have no way to destroy that monster." North Kai looked at Roland curiously. When did such a Saiyan appear in his territory? He didn't even know.

"You don't need to do anything. I want to revive Son Gohan using the Dragon Ball from New Planet Namek. Earth needs Son Gohan's power."

"Oh, it's Goku's son. He's dead too. Well, for the sake of cosmic peace, we do need to revive him. Seriously, we can't use the Dragon Ball too often... Wait a minute!" North Kai muttered to himself as he located the New Planet Namek.

The two long whiskers on its head crackled with electricity, and the situation on the distant New Planet Namek came into view.

"Huh?" North Kai frowned.

"What's wrong?" Roland asked.

North Kai remained silent, continuing his investigation of New Planet Namek. After a while, he said with regret, "This is troublesome; there are no more Dragon Ball on New Planet Namek."

"What happened?" Roland asked in surprise.

"A few years ago, the Namekian living there encountered another disaster. Spybots from outer space invaded New Planet Namek. Now, only a handful of Namekian have survived, and there are no longer any outstanding Dragon Clan capable of creating the Dragon Ball!" North Kai said with a sorrowful expression.

Another disaster!

Roland frowned and muttered to herself.

"The Dragon Ball are things that disrupt the order of the universe; using them too much will bring retribution." North Kai shook his head.

"It's the rules of your world again..."

"What?" North Kai didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing. Since there are no Dragon Ball New Planet Namek, Son Gohan can't be revived."

"I'm afraid that's the case."

After a moment of silence, Roland sighed.

The rules of this world are always inexplicable. Not only can Otherworld masters only exist for ten years, but using too many Dragon Ball will also bring retribution, as if this universe itself is imposing restrictions on high-level combat power. In the original world, there were no such restrictions.

Since there's no way to revive Son Gohan, Roland has to find another way. It seems impossible for Son Gohan and Trunks to train the Fusion Technique together now.
