After Super Saiyan
"King Kai, I want to stay and train too. Train me just as you trained Goku."
Piccolo, who had stayed on North Kai Planet for a while, suddenly decided not to leave. He realized that the short, stocky guy in front of him wasn't very strong, but he must be very knowledgeable in theory. Otherwise, Roland wouldn't have discussed things with him for so long. If he could get some guidance from him, he might be able to defeat Goku.
North Kai glanced at Piccolo, "You can stay, but you must rid yourself of that malevolent aura."
As Demon Clan, although he has now transformed into Namekian, he still possesses a cold and malevolent aura. North Kai is extremely sensitive to the Demon Clan aura emanating from Piccolo.
"Piccolo is staying too? That's wonderful!"
Goku was overjoyed. He had been training on King Kai Planet, and because Chi-Chi, Krillin, and the other two were no match for him, he had been feeling miserable for a long time due to the lack of opponents. He would be very happy if Piccolo joined him.
"Hmph, once I receive the same training as you—no, ten times as much as you do, I'll definitely defeat you." Piccolo looked at Goku with disdain. His own strength already surpassed Goku's. If it weren't for Goku mastering the Kaioken, Piccolo should have been the victor.
But a loss is a loss, and Piccolo won't make excuses for himself; he'll just train harder and win next time.
North Kai was impressed with Piccolo and nodded, saying, "If you are willing to train seriously, it won't be difficult for you to surpass Goku." Previously, the heroes who came to King Kai Planet only had a power level of tens of thousands. The fact that they could train masters like Piccolo and Goku filled North Kai with excitement.
He thought that it would be even better if Goku and the others could help him pacify the universe in the future, then he would feel proud when facing the other King Kai.
North Kai glanced at Luo Fei and Askari beside him and sighed inwardly.
These two kids are so strong at such a young age. Namekian matter how much Goku and Piccolo train, they can't catch up to them!
"It's over. Piccolo is going to train with King Kai too. If he targets Earth again, Goku probably won't be able to stop him." Goku only managed to fight Kaio-ken x3. Krillin couldn't imagine what would happen if Piccolo also learned the Kaioken.
Suno smiled, "I think Piccolo is a little different than before, so don't worry too much."
"I mean, just in case!" Krillin was still worried.
"Chi-Chi, Suno, I need to comprehend Vital Energy here. Could you please train Bulla?" Roland handed Bulla to Chi-Chi and Suno.
Bulla's foundation was very weak, so it wasn't a problem for Chi-Chi and Suno to help. Chi-Chi and Suno readily agreed, as they both liked Goku and Bulma's daughter.
Piccolo and Goku then began training under North Kai, while Bulla, under the guidance of Chi-Chi and Suno, began basic training. Additionally, although Luo Fei and Askari weren't particularly interested in the Kaioken, they still studied it at Roland's insistence.
In practical terms, while the Kaioken is not as advanced as the Super Saiyan transformation, the fundamental differences between the two are not significant. Understanding more about it will always be beneficial for them to transform into Super Saiyan in the future.
Seeing the others begin their training methodically, Roland smiled, then took flight alone, finding a patch of dense auspicious clouds above King Kai Planet, preparing to begin comprehending the Spirit Bomb.
"This is about right." Roland stopped where golden auspicious clouds surrounded them.
A gentle breeze blew, and golden auspicious clouds drifted and changed shape. These auspicious clouds were composed of high-grade water vapor. Although they were not as full of energy as Vital Energy, they were influenced by the King Kai's Realm and carried a trace of divine aura. Sitting upright where the auspicious clouds lingered, one's mind immediately entered a state of clarity.
Roland began to comprehend the Spirit Bomb, and then constantly verified it with the "Vital Energy Circulation" he had developed before. Unconsciously, a layer of shimmering light began to envelop his body.
"The Spirit Bomb contains the will of human life. Using it as energy for attack is actually a rather crude application. If these wills are used well, they can temper the realm of the mind."
"The Spirit God Realm is actually an upgraded version of this realm."
"By utilizing this level of mastery, and taking advantage of the characteristics of Vital Energy, there might be a chance to completely integrate Super Saiyan Full Power into my normal state."
As if he had figured out some key point, a smile gradually appeared on Roland's lips. Unconsciously, the aura around him began to grow stronger. Just as a sudden gust of wind was about to sweep through the entire King Kai's Realm, all the ripples suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened.
At this moment, Roland's body shone with a dazzling light, and an almost invisible energy floated on his body surface.
Roland was completely absorbed in the experience, and the "Mind Space" she had learned before started operating automatically.
After Super Saiyan reach Full Power, their subsequent paths vary from person to person. In the original story, Son Gohan, Goku, Vegeta, and others chose to go a step further and become Super Saiyan 2. Afterward, each of them developed a completely new fighting style.
With the help of Old Kai, Son Gohan unlocked his potential and became Ultimate Gohan; Goku chose to take on a greater burden and became Super Saiyan 3; Vegeta stuck to his own ideas and insisted on training as Super Saiyan 2, developing a fighting mode equivalent to Super Saiyan 2 "Beyond Form".
The three individuals have developed in different ways, so it's not fair to say who is right or wrong, but rather that these approaches suit them best.
Of course, from a long-term perspective, Roland believes that Ultimate Gohan Son Gohan is more back to basics and, if he persists in it, may achieve unexpected breakthroughs. It's just a pity that Son Gohan was not ambitious and gave up martial arts for his studies after the world was at peace.
Just like the choice made at the end of the Cell Games, it turned out to be quite foolish.
Roland has now reached the Full Power of the Golden-Eyed Super Saiyan, and in terms of transformation strength, he is comparable to the Super Saiyan 2 level of a regular Saiyan. He can consider taking the next step in his training. Of course, if he insists on training for the Golden-Eyed Super Saiyan 2, that's fine too. As the transformation strength continues to increase, his strength will further increase.
However, Roland had a vague feeling that doing so might not necessarily be the right thing to do.
Admittedly, extending the Golden-Eyed Super Saiyan to Super Saiyan 2 is a way to become stronger, but after witnessing the power of the God of Destruction, Pomfrey, Roland's pursuit of normal combat power became even more determined. The Super Saiyan transformation at Full Power is already the best state.
Further increases in physical exertion will drastically increase the burden on the body. With such a burden, the performance may not be as good as when unburdened.
The constantly flashing silver lightning in Super Saiyan 2 is actually an electrical discharge phenomenon caused by the Super Saiyan's inability to completely control its power.
