May 12

Earth, Mount Paozu.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye. At dawn, on the lush green mountaintop, Goku sat quietly in the air, more than a meter above the ground, like an old monk in meditation. His eyes were closed, and his aura was radiating outwards. The fierce storm crackled and the pressure bent the surrounding tree branches.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of his heartbeat echoed in his ears. Goku gripped his knees, concentrating in deep thought. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and strands of golden light began to shine from the tips of his hair. His aura rose with the sound waves, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a Super Saiyan.

Feeling his Super Saiyan power, Goku's eyes showed a thoughtful expression. After a while, the whirlwind rippled, and he returned to his normal state from Super Saiyan form.

"The power of an ordinary Super Saiyan has reached its limit. According to Roland, the next step should be to surpass the level of an ordinary Super Saiyan. At that level, we should be able to deal with the Android!"

"That might not be enough; we need to improve it further."

During these three years, Goku focused all his attention on cultivation, and his strength improved by leaps and bounds.

But I was still a little worried.

Three years ago, when he and Bulma returned from Planet Yardrat, they received news that Bulla and Luo Fei had gone to the future world. This worried the couple for a while. Then they heard about the Android from Chi-Chi. Upon hearing about the powerful enemies they would face in the future, Goku's first feeling was not fear, but rather excitement.

He is not afraid of challenges.

He was saddened that his future self would die of illness.

Unlike Goku's yearning for strength, the other warriors on Earth were not as calm. With Future Trunks' reminder and the potential pressure from the Android, everyone felt a sense of urgency and had been training diligently for three years, resulting in a significant improvement in their strength.

With a soft rustling sound, light footsteps approached Bulma, who was carrying a box of food, and walked to Goku's side with a faint smile on her fair and smooth face.

"As Chi-Chi informed us, the Android should be appearing around now." Bulma sat down next to Goku and took the food out of her lunchbox.

Goku grunted in agreement and picked up his bowl and chopsticks to start eating.

"May 12th, that's today."

He wolfed down his food as he spoke.

"I wonder what's wrong with Bulla now. That kid is really outrageous. He ran off to another world without a word or even a notification. What if something happens to him?" Bulma complained.

"Don't worry, Luo Fei and Askari are with us, nothing will happen."

Bulma rolled her eyes at Goku, annoyed. "If I hadn't known that Luo Fei and the others had gone along, would I still be sitting here peacefully?"

Goku laughed heartily as he ate his meal. Bulma's cooking was excellent; the dishes she prepared were delicious and visually appealing. He wolfed down his breakfast, and the sun gradually peeked over the mountains, its crimson rays painting the clouds on the horizon. A gentle breeze caressed his face, carrying a refreshing coolness.

After finishing breakfast, Goku stood up and stretched his limbs. The next second, his expression turned serious, and he looked towards the west, sensing a powerful aura emanating from there.

"What's wrong? Have Android appeared?" Bulma asked anxiously when she saw Goku's expression change drastically.

"No, it's Vegeta's ki. That guy has finally become Super Saiyan."

"He hasn't left Earth yet. If he transforms into Super Saiyan at this time, won't it affect Earth's safety?" Bulma frowned slightly.

"It won't have much of an impact," Goku shook his head and said calmly.

"That's good." Bulma breathed a sigh of relief.

Bulma had no liking for Vegeta, because he caused a major disaster to Earth four years ago. Although her husband, Goku, eventually quelled the disaster, Earth was also nearly destroyed as a result. Now, at the critical juncture of the Android crisis, she really didn't want to see any more accidents happen to Earth.

The couple chatted about other things for a while, and around eight o'clock, the sun was already high in the sky. Goku prepared to head towards the place where the Android might appear, as per the notification, according to their plan.

At that moment, Bulma took out a bottle of medicine from her pocket; it was a special medicine for heart disease that Trunks had sent her.

"Take this, you never know when you might need it!"

"No need, I already wished to the Shenron for a healthy body, so I shouldn't get heart disease again." Saying this, Goku reached out and took the special medicine and put it in his pocket.

Bulma said, "It's safer to keep it on your person."

Goku nodded.

Then Bulma took out a yellow jet from the Hoi-Poi Capsule, sat in the cockpit, and took off, intending to go with them. According to Bulma, she just wanted to see the Android and would be back after a quick look.

Goku initially wanted to object, but then he thought that if Android really appeared, it wouldn't matter where they hid on Earth, so he went along with her wishes.

"I'll go with you, just take a look and then come back. Be careful, if you can't win, don't force it, just use Instant Transmission."

"Got it." Goku chuckled and hurriedly fastened his seatbelt.

Meanwhile, in other parts of the Earth, Piccolo, Krillin, and the others finished their three-year training. They opened their eyes at the same time, a glint of light flashing in their eyes, and took to the air in unison, flying towards the southern region of the Earth.

On the Kami's Lookout, Chi-Chi and Suno arranged for the martial artists to train, leaving Mr. Popo and Dende to manage the Kami's Lookout. Then they floated down and disappeared into the swirling clouds.

Around 10 a. m. on May 12, on an island nine kilometers South City, it was an ordinary morning. The sea breeze was blowing, and the beautiful sea view was in sight. Seagulls cried out as they skimmed across the water and took flight. The small island on the distant coast entered a brand new day.

The South City is located South Capital, with a population of 300,000, which is not considered a particularly large city.

But now, the usually bustling streets are sparsely populated, and shops are deserted. Everyone seems to have agreed to stay home and not go out. Except for a few people who do not comply with the rules, the whole town seems to have come to a standstill.

Two years ago, the 26th World Martial Arts Tournament, which was moved up a year, was held as scheduled. King Furry of the Earth Kingdom attached great importance to the competition and specially invited legendary martial artists such as Chi-Chi and Goku to appear as special guests. It was during this World Martial Arts Tournament that King Furry learned of the possible disaster that was about to occur.

Upon learning of the harm caused by the Android from another world, the King Furry gasped in shock and immediately decided to cooperate with Goku and his companions in all their actions.

The first thing that comes to mind is to relocate the population out of South City.

However, considering that doing so might affect the places where the Android appeared, thus causing even greater losses, they had no choice but to abandon the idea of relocating the population. But in order to minimize the losses, the King Furry still made some efforts to keep the people at home as much as possible.

At the seaside, the shimmering waves reflected a dazzling light, and a cluster of white flashes streaked across the sky as Krillin and the others arrived at the agreed-upon location.

On a small island near South City, soldiers from all over the world arrived one after another.

"Oh dear, we're the last to arrive." The jet roared as Goku and Bulma stepped off the plane and greeted Piccolo and the others with smiles.

"Goku, we've been waiting for you for quite a while."

Krillin stepped forward with a smile, then paused slightly when he saw Bulma. "Bulma, what brings you here? It's dangerous here."

"Yes, it's not safe here."

"It's okay, I'll just take a look and then go back."

Bulma smiled and waved her hand.

Seeing this, the others nodded and stopped trying to dissuade her. Actually, if a fierce battle really broke out with the Android, it didn't really matter where they hid. At this moment, Chi-Chi walked to Bulma's side and whispered, "Bulla and the others haven't returned yet?"

"Not yet. When they get back, we'll definitely give them a good scolding. They've gone too far," Bulma said angrily.

"That's a bit willful."

Chi-Chi smiled understandingly. The group chatted and laughed as they waited on the island for a long time. Gradually, it was past ten o'clock, but the Android still hadn't appeared.

"It's already past ten o'clock, why haven't the Android appeared yet?" Krillin stood on the hilltop, looking down at the city with its towering buildings below.

"Could it be that Android don't even exist here? After all, it's a different world, and many things are different..."

"Don't be too optimistic. Perhaps the Android's body structure is different from ours, and its Ki Sensing may not be accurate."

Tien Shinhan spoke cautiously, saying that Android capable of causing trouble for even Super Saiyan in the future must be incredibly powerful. Although they had trained diligently for the past three years, to be honest, their improvement wasn't as dramatic as that of Saiyan.

They must be fully prepared for the potential emergence of Android and give it their all.
