"I'm begging you Tenten."
"No problem."
Tenten stretched out his little hand and hovered above Karot, emitting a yellow light that enveloped Karot's body.
Karot felt a warm sensation throughout his body, and his injuries began to heal at a visible speed.
Before Karot could even rejoice, the delicate balance within his body was shattered. A purple power and a black power erupted from his body, directly blasting Tenten away. This scene startled the onlookers.
Karot was also seriously injured, blood seeping from every pore of his body, turning him into a blood-soaked mess. Tenten, on the other hand, was knocked unconscious by the attack, coughing up blood.
"What kind of power is this?"
Vegeta, Piccolo, and the others all sensed the approach of death within this power. Tenten was knocked unconscious simply from the shockwave as this power emanated from Karot's body.
Karot never expected that using ki for healing would disrupt the balance. While helping with the healing Tenten, Karot accumulated a little ki.
"Return."
Karot stretched out his right hand, which emitted a yellow light, as if drawn by a force. The purple power pulled the black power, causing it to surge into Karot's body. This was only a sliver; if it all escaped, Karot might perish.
"Puff."
Karot vomited blood again. He hadn't even been here for a day, and Karot was already almost completely drained of blood.
Are you alright?
Bulma wanted to help, but she was afraid of causing further harm to the person in front of her.
"He's not dead yet."
"Bring that little guy over here!"
Gohan quickly picked up Tenten and brought her over. Karot placed his hand on Tenten's chest, and a flash of light appeared on his hand, waking Tenten up.
"Ouch, that hurts!"
Tenten, the first thing I say when I wake up is to complain about the pain.
"Because I don't have enough energy, I can only help him wake up; I can't help him feel the pain."
Karot felt quite embarrassed; someone had kindly come to help him, but ended up getting injured instead of being saved.
However, seeing Karot's condition, the others couldn't bear to criticize him. After all, he was already injured.
"Karot, how did you end up in Namek? Are you also searching for the Dragon Ball?"
Gohan asked Karot, since the people who appeared on Planet Namek only had one purpose.
"That's a long story."
Karot was about to launch into a long speech, but Bulma wasn't about to let him have his way.
"Then just get to the point."
Everyone is focused on Goku's situation and has no time to listen to Karot's boasting.
"This is a very sad story."
Karot didn't say anything more after that.
"Go on!"
Bulma urged.
"Didn't you tell me to keep it short?"
Karot looked completely innocent; it was clearly her own request, yet Karot was being blamed instead.
"I didn't expect it to be so short!"
Bulma roared.
After a commotion, everyone learned Karot's name, but the others Karot quiet about it.
"I wonder how Goku is doing? Why didn't he come back with us?"
Bulma looked up at the sky, in the direction of Planet Namek.
"He's fine. With Son Goku's current strength, dealing with Frieza is a piece of cake."
"I was very disappointed that Bulma and Son Goku didn't end up together when I watched Dragon Ball," Karot said, offering words of comfort.
"You're very clear about this?"
Vegeta interjected.
"Of course, Super Saiyan! That's more than enough to deal with Frieza right now."
Karot was very keen on becoming Super Saiyan, but he couldn't achieve it, which is now a regret.
Do you know how to change it?
Vegeta asked somewhat anxiously, as Son Goku's strength far surpassed his own. As the prince of a warrior race, he couldn't allow any other Saiyan to be stronger than him.
"I know!"
Karot answered matter-of-factly.
"What?"
This time it was Vegeta's turn to be surprised; he hadn't expected the man in front of him to know the method.
Vegeta stared intently at Karot, as if he were looking at a priceless treasure.
"Tell me, and I might spare your life."
Vegeta declared forcefully, "I absolutely must obtain the method for transforming into Super Saiyan."
What gave you the illusion that I would tell you this?
"That's not up to you."
Vegeta didn't take Karot seriously at all; he only knew that Vegeta was the strongest of all Saiyan. Karot, that overpowered guy, didn't count.
At that moment Gohan blocked Vegeta's path.
"Get out of my way, brat, or I'll kill you too."
Vegeta didn't take Son Gohan seriously.
"I will not allow you to hurt Mr. Karot."
Son Gohan said firmly.
"Alright, let's see if you can stop me then."
After saying that, Vegeta launched the first attack, not believing that Son Gohan could stop him with his strength.
As the two began to fight, Son Gohan was immediately at a disadvantage. But who was Son Gohan? He was the most promising character in Dragon Ball! A man who grew stronger when facing stronger opponents. From being overwhelmed by Vegeta at the beginning, he gradually became able to fight back. Unfortunately, Vegeta didn't give him time to react, knocking Son Gohan to the ground with a loud "thump," bringing Karot back to his senses.
"Vegeta's ruthless!"
Karot thought to himself with disdain for Vegeta.
"No one can save you now, so tell me how!"
Vegeta pressed closer and closer to Karot.
Karot opened his palm, and two powers, one purple and one black, appeared in Karot hand.
"Do you want to try and see if you can survive?"
Vegeta stopped in his tracks. He dared not gamble; winning would grant him the method to become Super Saiyan, but losing would cost him his life. Vegeta was not ready to take such a high-stakes gamble.
"Snort."
After Vegeta left Karot started coughing; he was still stubbornly using his power. Karot refused to compromise in the face of threats.
"Come with us to my house, Karot. The conditions there are much better."
The plane that was supposed to pick up Bulma has arrived; finally, the world's richest man is making a grand entrance.
"Then I'll take my leave."
Karot didn't want to let this opportunity slip by, especially since Karot wanted to use the power of Planet Namek Shenron Porunga recover his body. Hopefully, it would work!
Karot settled into Bulma's house, waiting for the Dragon Ball to be restored so he could make a wish. Having arrived in the technological world Karot became quite engrossed, spending all his time playing in the game world like a complete internet addict.
The scene depicting Krillin's appearance in the previous chapter has been corrected. I didn't expect him to make such a ridiculous mistake.
