Continuous Skill Extraction

"I really don't understand why you're so stubborn. You had to do it once before you'd be satisfied. The trial of climbing Korin Tower is only meant to train those who come to challenge it. With your strength, you only needed one minute to run up here. It didn't have any effect at all."

Seeing Kairos climb up in such a short time, Korin felt even more helpless.

Deep down, he was also shocked.

Kairos had run up in only one minute. How terrifying was that?

The top of Korin Tower was ten thousand meters above the ground. That meant Kairos had covered more than one hundred and sixty-six meters every second!

Korin had no way of knowing that this was nowhere near Kairos's full strength.

If Kairos truly wanted to, he could have been even faster.

"I told you long ago—some things only count once you've done them yourself!" Kairos said with a smile. He offered no further explanation and called out to the sky, "Flying Nimbus!"

Before long, a Flying Nimbus several times larger than Kakarot's came racing over. Kairos leaped onto it without hesitation, then said to Korin, "Until we meet again, Korin. Next time I come, I'll bring you some fresh fish."

"Then I'll thank you in advance. Until we meet again." Korin waved a hand at once.

A sort of spiritual connection had formed between Flying Nimbus and Kairos. Following Kairos's will, it sped westward.

Korin stood there for a long while, watching Kairos's departing figure.

Heading west all the way, Kairos rode Flying Nimbus across a forest sea stretching thousands of miles. After crossing several towering mountain ranges, he arrived above the ocean.

Unlike Planet Vegeta, Earth's scenery suited Kairos's tastes far better.

After all, he had lived two lives, and his previous life had influenced him greatly.

The sea breeze blew against him, and the sensation of soaring freely between heaven and earth filled Kairos with incomparable exhilaration.

All his pressure vanished, leaving him with the feeling that birds could fly as high as the sky allowed, while fish could leap as far as the sea permitted.

Most importantly, Earth's gravity was only one-tenth that of Planet Vegeta.

He had already felt it clearly while at Kami's Lookout, but now that he was racing through the open sky, he could sense it even more distinctly.

Moving around on Earth, regardless of how much stronger he might be, the burden on his body alone was far, far lighter.

Flying Nimbus was extremely fast. Since it could connect with Kairos's thoughts and feelings, it was also doing its best to display its flying abilities.

Its destination was naturally West City!

This had originally been the first place he intended to visit after arriving on Earth. However, the series of events at Kami's Lookout had delayed his plans.

Of course, setting Kami's Lookout aside, West City was still the first place he needed to go.

While I have the chance, let's test my luck and see what skill I can draw.

After calming down from his excitement, Kairos sat cross-legged on Flying Nimbus. Then, he opened System Space and focused on the beginner-level skill draw opportunities.

He had four chances in total!

One for Defeat Mr. Popo, one for First Battle, one for defeating Kami, and the last for defeating Korin.

Draw!

With a thought from Kairos, a translucent crystal interface appeared before him.

It resembled the spinning prize-wheel interface in a game, only much simpler.

As it began to spin, it steadily accelerated. Kairos could only vaguely make out familiar skills flashing past.

Ten seconds later, the spinning gradually slowed. Finally, it stopped with the pointer aimed at the skill Destructo Disc.

[ Ding!!! ]

[One beginner-level skill draw opportunity has been consumed.]

[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the main skill: Destructo Disc.]

As the system prompt sounded, a flash of excitement crossed Kairos's face.

It was not as wonderful as he had imagined—not a godlike skill such as Ultra Instinct or Ultra Ego—but Destructo Disc was still pretty good.

To a certain extent, this thing could allow one to kill enemies above one's level.

Krillin had once used this move to cut off Frieza's tail directly.

If Frieza had taken it head-on, there was no doubt he would have been cut in half.

Even though Destructo Disc later became useless against existences like Cell and Super Saiyan 2 Gohan—

—it was still an immensely powerful offensive skill.

During the Tournament of Power, Destructo Disc had appeared again and demonstrated even greater versatility.

As he received the system's reward, Kairos felt as though enlightenment had been poured directly into his mind. Not only did he receive the method of using it in his head, but his body also gained beginner-level experience.

Rather than drawing another skill, Kairos stood up and raised a hand, beginning to gather a Destructo Disc.

With his strength, even though the Destructo Disc he had obtained was only at the beginner level, he could still form it with ease.

A spinning disc of light condensed above his palm. Kairos used his hand to accelerate its rotation, then flung it toward the horizon.

The Destructo Disc sliced through the air with a piercing howl. The instant it touched the sea's surface, it carved a bottomless trench through the entire ocean.

The Destructo Disc traveled more than ten miles before all its power finally dissipated.

"Not bad! That's another finishing move!"

With merely a few thousand battle power worth of energy gathered, it had achieved such an effect. Kairos's lips tightened, and the delight in his eyes grew ever stronger.

Next, Kairos continued drawing skills.

After obtaining the Destructo Disc on his first try, his expectations naturally rose higher and higher.

However, the second and third draws poured a bucket of cold water over Kairos, leaving him deeply disappointed.

The second draw gave him an auxiliary skill: Hypnosis Technique...

The third draw was also an auxiliary skill: Afterimage Technique...

Whether it was the Hypnosis Technique or the Afterimage Technique, neither was useful to Kairos in his current state.

Perhaps the Hypnosis Technique could still be somewhat useful, but the Afterimage Technique was something he could perform casually on his own.

Although, after receiving the information implanted by the system, he learned that it was indeed somewhat different from what he had imagined, it was still of little use.

With only one beginner-level skill draw remaining, Kairos held onto his last sliver of hope and continued.

[ Ding!!! ]

[One beginner-level skill draw opportunity consumed.]

[Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the auxiliary skill: Transformation.]

Transformation!

This skill made Kairos's eyes light up slightly.

Though it was still an auxiliary skill, if it was the transformation ability he had in mind, then it counted as mastering a relatively special skill.

At the very least, it was far more useful than the Hypnosis Technique and Afterimage Technique.

Once the system imparted the skill's information and experience, Kairos confirmed that it was indeed the Transformation Technique mastered by the early Oolong and Puar.

A beginner-level Transformation Technique allowed one to transform into anything based on one's imagination, with a duration of three minutes.
