Kami's words left Master Roshi and Krillin petrified on the spot.
Yajirobe began to tremble even more violently.
"Ka... Kami-sama, how could you agree to this?! He almost killed Goku, and he even tried to kidnap Goku's son, Gohan... If he goes with Goku, who knows what might happen..." Krillin tried to intervene, but he was forced to stop mid-sentence.
It wasn't just the look in Kami's eyes that answered him; Raditz also cast a look of disdain his way.
"Little bald guy, what do you even know?! Do you have any idea? If it were the old me, I would have killed you already." Raditz turned around, his face filled with murderous intent.
The intimidation from that single sentence was enough to force Krillin into silence.
"I... I'm warning you... This is Kami's Lookout, and everyone is here, so don't you try anything reckless..." Krillin forced down the fear in his heart and gritted his teeth as he spoke.
In response, Raditz burst into laughter.
This little bald guy had actually learned how to threaten him.
"It's alright, Krillin. I don't know about the brother from before, but the brother I know now has changed! The only reason he attacked me earlier was because he wanted to take me away from Earth to invade other planets."
"I think those two other Saiyans played a part in that, too! My brother probably didn't have the power to fight against his fate back then, but now that he has the chance, he naturally won't be the same as he was before."
"Since I've chosen to trust him, I will trust him to the end! Besides, I'm also looking forward to seeing what kind of results we'll get from training with King Kai together."
Son Goku reached out and patted Krillin on the shoulder.
He was essentially making excuses for Raditz, while also trying to ease the tension among everyone.
It had to be said, even Lin Chuan sometimes couldn't understand Son Goku's way of thinking.
He changed too quickly...
One moment he was ready to kill his own brother, and the next, he had already forgiven him.
"But... Sigh! Alright." Seeing Son Goku act this way, Krillin had wanted to say more, but after noticing Master Roshi shaking his head at him, he had no choice but to accept it.
He, too, had wanted to go train... but that opportunity had been snatched away by Raditz.
No one understood his bitterness.
However, he hadn't given up entirely.
Now that he knew what the future held, even if he couldn't go to train with King Kai, he wouldn't just sit by and wait for his doom.
Off to the side, Lin Chuan witnessed everything unfold, feeling even more moved: It seems the changes I've made are slowly causing the original trajectory to deviate! Although the main storyline hasn't changed, the seeds have already been sown.
This world was starting to become different.
"Krillin, you don't need to feel regret or aggrieved. Although I have no way to send you to train with King Kai, you can stay at Kami's Lookout to train for the next year."
"This includes Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, and Yamcha as well."
"They are all top-tier martial artists on Earth, and I will arrange for Mr. Popo to go and find them shortly."
Seeing Krillin's discouragement and unwillingness, Kami Piccolo began to elaborate on his other plans.
He, naturally, also wanted to cultivate the warriors of Earth, allowing their power to reach a higher level.
Only in this way could the crisis a year from now be resolved more effectively.
At the very least, this was another path to ensure the safety of Earth.
"Is... is this really okay?" Krillin's eyes flashed with excitement upon hearing Kami Piccolo's words.
To him, training at Kami's Lookout was also a great opportunity.
At the very least, it was far better than training on his own.
Just like that, with Kami Piccolo explaining and Lin Chuan adding his own input on the side, Lin Chuan and Raditz were thoroughly pulled into the subsequent plot of the original story.
However, Lin Chuan was different from Raditz; he did not need to train according to Kami's arrangements, nor could anyone sway him.
It is worth mentioning that I didn't expect Kami Piccolo to be so anxious. Saying that there was no time to lose, he took Son Goku and Raditz and set off on the road to the Otherworld.
It seemed he was afraid that Son Goku and Raditz might change their minds or that some other complication might arise, rendering all his plans futile.
Others might not know Kami Piccolo's intentions, but how could Lin Chuan not know?
By now, about twenty minutes had passed.
Since Kami was gone and Raditz was no longer there, Lin Chuan couldn't be bothered to say anything else. He walked to the side to think about his own plans moving forward.
Since arriving on Earth, he had been using the information he possessed to change things. Now that the general situation was settled, it was his turn.
Because he was far away, Lin Chuan didn't pay any attention to the situation on the other side at all.
After all, the others were acquaintances. Even though Mr. Popo had only met the others a couple of times, Bulma, Master Roshi, Krillin, and Son Gohan all knew each other and had common ground.
Of course, even if he couldn't hear them clearly, Lin Chuan could roughly guess that they must think Kami Piccolo's decision to let Raditz go train with King Kai was reckless.
Additionally, they were surely wondering how they would explain the situation to Chi-Chi.
After all, Goku had just left like that! And this departure would last at least a year!
Standing at the edge of Kami's Lookout.
Lin Chuan took a deep breath of the fresh air. This feeling of being high above, looking down, truly gave one the sensation of overlooking all living beings.
No wonder the original Piccolo, even after separating from his other half, still wanted to become this Kami.
To hold dominion over a planet, to become the ruler of countless lives! How exciting and prideful a thing is that?
If it weren't for the subsequent Dragon Ball Z storyline, he would have wanted to try being this Kami himself after transmigrating here; it was supreme, after all.
Of course, this world is too vast, and Earth is just too small!
Lin Chuan could not let his vision be constrained by the position of a mere Kami.
His future would undoubtedly be incredibly glorious!
And what he had to do was to keep getting stronger, to keep moving forward!
Speaking of which, if I want to rise rapidly in a short period, there is one fastest way... As the thought crossed his mind, Lin Chuan turned around and looked toward the palace of Kami's Lookout.
As a transmigrator, how could he not know about the existence of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber!
Spending a year inside is only one day outside!
With the Infinite Combat Power Enhancement System he possessed, even if his combat power only increased by 1 point per second, as long as he entered that chamber, he could gain a year's worth of combat power in just one day of outside time!
One day is 86,400 seconds!
One month of thirty days is 2,592,000 seconds.
One year of twelve months is 31,104,000 seconds!
Following the rule that each person can only enter for two days initially, which is equivalent to two years of training, his combat power could increase to over 60 million points!
It was equivalent to becoming that strong without doing anything else.
Moreover, adding the one year in the outside world, by the time he went to Planet Namek to face Frieza, even if he couldn't yet transform into a Super Saiyan, a combat power exceeding 100 million would be enough to deal with Frieza at that time!
