Sense of Crisis
Roland, who traveled back twenty years in the Time Machine with Son Gohan, was unaware that the Dragon God Power emanating from him while he was modifying the Earth Dragon Balls had attracted the attention of a mysterious place outside the universe, which then sent a powerful expert to clean it up.
At this point, Roland and Son Gohan had already returned to the world twenty years in the future.
The Time Machine appeared in the open space of the Five Elements Mountain. When Roland and Son Gohan stepped out of the Time Machine, Bulma and Trunks, who had been waiting, surrounded them. Seeing that the halo representing the dead above Son Gohan's head had completely disappeared, the last bit of tension on their faces also disappeared.
It seems their trip went smoothly.
"Gohan!"
"Great! Gohan is back to life!" Chi-Chi, Videl, and the others cried with excitement.
Bulma and Trunks also came forward to offer their condolences.
After inquiring about their journey, Son Gohan briefly explained his experiences in another world. Bulma breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. With this warning, she believed that with Goku and the others' efforts, they would definitely be able to overcome the future crisis.
"When we arrived, Frieza and his father had just landed on Earth, so Mr. Roland and I killed them directly, thus preventing the tragedy that happened on Earth 20 years ago... It's just a pity that I never got to see my father again."
Son Gohan calmly recounted his experiences.
Bulma listened patiently, and when she learned that Son Gohan had given the special medicine for treating heart disease to his past self, she and Chi-Chi were relieved.
"Everything is just as I predicted. From this moment on, the two worlds have embarked on completely different futures. The other world will not suffer the same catastrophe as us, and everyone can live happily ever after." Bulma looked relieved. Being able to change the tragedy of a world, her more than ten years of hard work day and night had finally paid off.
Son Gohan nodded, then turned to Chi-Chi, "Mom, I've already sent the videos and gold over here. With these, everyone in the other world won't have to worry about financial problems anymore."
"Yes, that's good. Goku will definitely be able to protect everyone."
Chi-Chi was already wiping away tears with a handkerchief. When Goku passed away, she was the one who was most heartbroken, but because she also had to raise young Son Gohan, she could only silently shoulder all the burdens alone. Over the past twenty years, with the changes in the external environment, she has also seen through a lot.
While cultural knowledge is important, it is strength that can truly protect our homes in times of crisis.
If she could do it all over again, she would never stop Goku and the others from training. So this time, when Gohan Son Gohan the others went back in time, she prepared a lot of materials to persuade her past self. She also suggested that they take the gold with them.
Roland and Son Gohan's return from the past brought a lot of joy to everyone at the Five Elements Mountain. Even Master Roshi and Korin came from afar after hearing the news. Everyone was surprised when they learned that Roland actually had the ability to enhance the power of Shenron.
The days that followed passed peacefully. Before Roland could find a way back, she quietly cultivated herself on Five Elements Mountain.
At this time, Son Gohan, Trunks, and Videl had left the Five Elements Mountain and joined the reconstruction of Earth's society. In the past twenty years under the rule of Super 13, all aspects of Earth's development had been severely damaged. Now that Earth has returned to peace, everything is in need of rebuilding.
However, Roland didn't feel quite at ease, especially after his trip to twenty years ago, when this feeling of unease became even more pronounced.
He had previously only felt that this world was somewhat out of place with the system he knew, but after conversing with Shenron, he fully understood that the current world was vastly different from the universe he knew. There were no Super Dragon Ball here, the power of Dragon God Zalama could not cover it, and there were even various restrictions on the experts of Other World...
Perhaps this is not the world he knows, the world ruled by the Zeno.
With this understanding, Roland felt a sense of urgency for some reason. In order to guard against unknown dangers, he wasted no time and worked hard to improve his strength.
Even if it turns out that this urgency is just nonsense, it would be good to increase our strength as soon as possible.
While Roland was cultivating, Bulma's work didn't stop either. Reconstruction efforts on Earth were proceeding rapidly, and after setting aside all her burdens, she devoted herself entirely to the research on the Deep Blue Crystal, making significant progress during this time. She has now extracted four small tubes of Energy Liquid, each about the thickness of a thumb, from the crystal. Bulma has conducted numerous experiments on these tubes of Energy Liquid, but she still hasn't figured out what this blue energy actually is.
On this day, Bulma returned the Deep Blue Crystal to Roland.
"Research on this crystal won't yield any results for now, so I'd like to change my approach and start with this blue energy."
"You're an expert at these things."
Roland held a container filled with blue energy in her hand and examined it. This blue energy was crystal clear, unlike Deep Blue Crystal which had no luster at all.
Bulma said, "I heard from Shenron that only by activating the power of the crystal can you return to your original world?"
Roland put away the vessel containing blue energy and the Deep Blue Crystal. "This is one method, and it seems to be the most likely to succeed at the moment."
The Red Shenron offered three ways to return: activating the power of the red Shenron within one's body, activating the power of the Blue Crystal, or having a cosmic Angel- level being personally intervene. While the first two involved an element of luck, they were generally the easiest to achieve. As for the third option, the so-called "cosmic Angel- level expert" probably referred to Angel, but he didn't know Angel, so how could he ask them for help?
Bulma nodded after listening, then asked him what the Super Dragon Ball were, Roland explained.
When Bulma learned that there were actually Super Dragon Ball in another world that were even larger than planets, she was completely stunned. After regaining her senses, she couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of the world.
After retrieving the Deep Blue Crystal, Roland returned to cultivate. Not long after, Lazuli came looking for him; this woman wanted to leave Earth again.
This time, Roland did not refuse her, but instead took her directly to a planet outside of Earth.
It was a technologically advanced planet. On its pristine white surface stood tray-like spaceship docking stations, and within moments, numerous spaceships could be seen taking off or landing.
Lazuli was leaving Earth for the first time. Her bright eyes gazed into the distance and saw a group of aliens in Battle Suit driving transport vehicles back and forth, transporting goods. These aliens were dressed uniformly and wore glasses-framed Scouter in their ears. They were busy working under the command of an alien who looked like a commander.
"What do you think of this place?" Roland asked.
Lazuli looked on with curiosity, "It's quite nice, what is this place?"
"Planet Frieza was originally the headquarters of the Frieza Legion. After Frieza's death, his army disintegrated, but a small number of its members survived. Now, it is under the control of some former members of the Frieza Legion and is considered a moderately powerful force in the universe."
"Is that Frieza who was defeated by Goku?"
"Yes."
Lazuli licked her lips, her eyes gleaming, and with a wave of her arm, declared arrogantly, "From today onwards, this place is mine."
P. S.: I recommend a book called "Back to the Ming Dynasty as a Tyrant".
I transmigrated to the Ming Dynasty and became Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Carpenter Emperor. Well, I'll stay in the background and take the blame; you can all go and die.
