The Grand Elder's Surprise
"Greetings, Grand Elder." Roland greeted the Grand Elder politely.
"Haha, no need to be so polite."
The young Grand Elder of Planet Namek smiled at Roland, "You've come from Universe 7, there must be something you need, right?"
Roland nodded and explained that he needed to borrow the Super Dragon Ball.
After listening, the Grand Elder's expression turned serious. "Legend has it that if you collect seven Wishing Star, you can summon the sleeping Super Shenron. However, because the Wishing Star are scattered across two universes, no one has been able to summon the Super Shenron for a very long time."
"I need to remind you that making a wish to the Super Shenron requires using ancient Divine Language."
Roland said, "I have studied the language of high-ranking deities."
Long ago, he learned the Divine Language by making a wish through the Planet Namek Dragon Ball. He had prepared it for making a wish to the Super Shenron after seeing the Super Dragon Ball in the Babu Star System.
"Well, then there's no problem. You are favored by the Dragon God and should have the authority to use the Wishing Star. Please follow me!"
The Grand Elder nodded, agreeing very readily.
The Namekian are a race blessed by the Dragon God. Their collection and worship of the Super Dragon Ball is a sign of respect for the Dragon God's divine objects, and they do not intend to possess the Wishing Star for themselves or prevent outsiders from using it.
"Ah, thank you so much for your generosity!"
Roland was also taken aback by how smoothly things went, and followed behind the Grand Elder with Askari.
"No need to be so polite. My clan also received the blessing of the Dragon God, and we are not the owners of the Wishing Star." The Grand Elder's generosity and magnanimity impressed Roland, Askari also looked at him with new respect.
It seems that no matter which universe it is, the Namekian are a kind and simple race.
As long as you have good intentions, communication is easy.
The father and daughter followed behind the Grand Elder through the seemingly endless corridor. Soon they entered a wide-open space, as if entering another world. Above them hung a starry sky, with each brilliant star shining like a pearl. In the center were three blazing stars, their orange-red light illuminating the entire night.
Roland knew that those three stars were the Super Dragon Ball.
"That's the Super Dragon Ball?"
Askari stared in astonishment. It was the first time she had ever seen the Super Dragon Ball. Looking at the enormous celestial body radiating golden light above her, she felt a sense of suffocation.
She had heard that the Super Dragon Ball were huge, but she had never seen them in person. The three Super Dragon Ball in front of her were even larger than she had imagined. The Super Dragon Ball were over 37,000 kilometers in diameter, while the Earth was only 12,742 kilometers in diameter. Their volume was 27 times that of the Earth. If she stood on the Super Dragon Ball, she would see an endless expanse of flat land.
"Wow, it's huge!"
"The Super Dragon Ball are the size of a massive planet; they are truly a masterpiece of craftsmanship," Roland said.
"That's amazing! How was it made?"
Askari tilted her head. Such a large Dragon Ball, she wondered how long it would take to carve, and to make it so round and flat.
"The power of the Dragon God Zalama is beyond the comprehension of us mortals. Our ancestors put in a great deal of effort to move these three Wishing Star here." The Grand Elder smiled as he leaned on his cane. The Namekian were extremely devout in their faith in the Dragon God.
"Can you move it? Do you need help?"
"Thank you for your kindness, Grand Elder, but I can manage to move them." Roland didn't want to trouble the other party and expressed her gratitude with a smile.
"Hmm, as expected of those favored by the Dragon God. By the way, although our clan has guarded the Dragon God's divine artifacts for countless years, we have never seen Super Shenron. I have a request: when you summon Super Shenron, we hope you can let us witness its Super Shenron."
"Of course, no problem."
Roland reciprocated the Grand Elder's generosity with goodwill.
At most, we can wait until we summon the Super Shenron and take the Grand Elder and the others to Universe 7. With the Space-Time Cube given to us by Whis, taking a few people on a short trip through the universe is not a big problem.
Having received Roland's promise, the Grand Elder smiled and nodded, saying nothing more.
At this moment, Roland glanced at Askari and realized that to make Cell loyal, he had to change his mind, which would require the power of the Dragon Ball. However, due to the previous Android incident and the Cell Games, the Dragon Ball on Earth had already used up several wishes, and the remaining wish power might not be enough to change Cell Jr..
Not wanting to bother two people, he asked the Grand Elder for permission to use the Namekian Dragon Balls.
Having just received Roland's promise, the Grand Elder reciprocated without hesitation, agreeing without a second thought. As the Grand Elder of Planet Namek, he had the authority to decide the use of the Dragon Ball.
He glanced at Saonel and Pirina, and instructed them to bring the Dragon Ball from the Grand Elder.
Saonel and Pirina did not question it and carried out the Grand Elder's instructions.
"Wait a moment, Saonel will bring the Dragon Ball back soon." The Grand Elder smiled and picked up the teapot to make a cup of tea for Roland and Askari respectively.
Roland nodded and patiently waited while drinking tea with Askari.
About ten minutes later, Saonel and Pirina flew back carrying the Dragon Ball. With a crackling sound, the seven Dragon Ball landed on the ground, making a crisp sound like glass colliding. The Namekian Dragon Balls from Universe 6 are similar to those from Universe 7, both about the size of a soccer ball.
"These Dragon Ball can grant three wishes?" Askari asked.
"Of course, Porunado's abilities are quite outstanding."
The Grand Elder's young face radiated pride. "Porunado" is the name of Shenron Planet Namek from Universe 6. In the Namekian language, it means "God of Hope," and its power is comparable to that of the Namekian Shenron from Universe 7, "Porunga."
"I worry that 'Porunado's' power is not enough to change Cell Jr..'s mind."
Roland frowned.
His concerns were not unfounded. After all, in the original story, after Planet Namek was destroyed, the Shenron Porunga needed Goku's consent to bring Goku back from his wanderings in space. It would be very difficult for the Shenron to distort the mind of Super Saiyan 2 level Super Perfect Cell.
However, Roland was fully prepared. Since he was worried that the Planet Namek Dragon Ball were not powerful enough, he would upgrade them.
--Just like that time when I traveled back twenty years with Son Gohan in the Time Machine.
Then Roland stretched out his hand, and two pure Dragon God Power surged in his arm. Accompanied by a faint dragon roar, they flowed from his arm through his palm and turned into two clusters of sparkling electric sparks dancing at his fingertips.
Upon seeing this, the young Grand Elder's pupils contracted sharply. Feeling the oppressive aura of a high-ranking Dragon Clan, he exclaimed, "What pure Dragon God Power... In this way, Porunado's power will increase several times over. You truly deserve to be favored by the Dragon God."
"This oppressive force is unprecedented."
"That's too powerful."
Saonel and Pirina were sweating profusely, enduring both psychological and physical pressure.
"I've never seen anything like this before."
Askari lowered her head, her fair brows furrowed slightly, and she muttered softly to herself. There were many abilities her father possessed that she was unaware of.
"Go!"
Roland gave a low shout, and the energy of the Red Shenron and Blue Shenron instantly poured into the seven Dragon Ball on the ground.
With the blessing of the two Dragon God Power, the Namekian Dragon Balls on the ground instantly shone with dazzling light. A flawless and pure power spread out, and the Dragon Ball shone brightly. The bright red stars inside suddenly turned deep blue, and their power immediately increased several levels.
Moreover, like the Dragon Ball on Earth, it is a permanent modification.
"The Dragon Ball have changed color, and their power has increased."
"Incredible."
Saonel exclaimed in surprise, and the Grand Elder looked on in astonishment.
"Based on the Namekian Dragon Balls, the modification went much more smoothly. Saonel, I'll trouble you to summon Porunado." Roland nodded in satisfaction and said to Saonel.
Saonel did not refuse and began to summon Porunado, while at this moment Roland also asked Askari to take out the sealing bottle containing Cell Jr..
"Grand Elder, please be careful in a moment. Super Perfect Cell's power is at the level of Super Saiyan 2, even stronger Saonel."
Roland specifically reminded the Grand Elder that Saonel and Pirina's power had roughly reached the Super Saiyan 2 level, but they were still some distance from Cell Jr..
"Hehe, Lord Roland, there's no need to worry. My strength is also quite good." The Grand Elder smiled faintly.
"In fact, the Grand Elder is the undisputed strongest person on our Planet Namek."
Pirina explained from the side.
Roland paused for a moment, then said, "Oh, I see."
The Planet Namek Grand Elder was remarkably young, and he had assumed that the other party, like the Grand Elder of Universe 7, was simply Namekian!
