A week later.
Goku took Li Feng's advice and went to the Temple to ask Kami how to get to King Kai's Planet.
Kami told Goku where King Kai's Planet was, but it was very far away, so he would need the Dragon Balls' help.
In the original story, Goku only found King Kai's Planet in the afterlife, after he died.
After gathering all the Dragon Balls, Goku went to an open space and made a wish.
"Come forth, Shenron!"
Goku summoned Shenron.
Whoosh!
Although it was daytime, the sky suddenly darkened.
The seven orange orbs on the ground began to shine with dazzling light!
Flash! Seven beams of orange light burst forth and converged in the air, gradually forming a gigantic figure.
A green dragon hundreds of meters long coiled through the sky!
So this is Earth's Shenron? He looked imposing enough on TV, but seeing him in person was truly shocking!
Li Feng marveled.
He sensed Shenron's energy. It was far weaker than his own, but he could feel another strange kind of energy as well. It was probably the Dragon God Power.
Forget the God of Destruction—I'm not even as strong as a Supreme Kai. I should focus on raising my battle power first.
Li Feng thought to himself.
Shenron's eyes glowed red as he spoke to Goku and the others.
"State your wish. No matter what it is, I can grant one wish!"
"Shenron, can you take me to where the North Supreme Kai is?" Goku asked Shenron.
"That wish is simple!"
Shenron's eyes flashed red, and a tremendous divine power enveloped Goku.
Goku vanished in an instant.
"Your wish has been granted. Farewell."
With that, Shenron disappeared, and the seven Dragon Balls turned to stone and flew off to different parts of the planet.
After sparring with Goku for a week, Goku's battle power had risen from 1,900 at the start to 4,600, while Li Feng's own battle power had soared to 8,000!
Besides their sparring, their gains were thanks to the Saiyan physique and the overpowered nature of Senzu Beans. Their battle power had risen relatively little over the past few days.
In the original story, after a year of training on King Kai's Planet, Goku's base battle power was only 8,000.
Li Feng's greatest gains weren't in battle power, but in combat experience and technique!
Although Goku hadn't yet experienced the later battles against Frieza, the Androids, Majin Buu, and the others, he had plenty of experience fighting powerful foes as a child. Li Feng had learned a lot from him.
Next came training in the Gravity Training Chamber, but first, there was one thing he needed to do.
Li Feng had a very clear training plan.
First, he would spar with Goku to improve his martial arts. Then he would train in the Gravity Training Chamber, using Senzu Beans to heal his serious injuries and raise his battle power.
Now everything was ready. All he lacked were Senzu Beans.
Yes, he'd started with ten Senzu Beans. Three had been used to save Goku and the others, and he'd gone through the rest during the past few days of training.
His main purpose in going out today was to get Senzu Beans from Korin.
Li Feng figured Korin was a cat, and what cat didn't like fish?
In and out, fast!
Whoosh!
Li Feng reached the sea more than ten kilometers away in just a dozen seconds.
Looking out over the vast, churning ocean, Li Feng felt his spirits soar.
He casually fired an energy blast into the sea.
Boom!
His energy ball exploded like a giant torpedo, sending a hundred-meter wall of water skyward.
All kinds of fish were blasted into the air, raining down like drops from the sky.
Without the slightest hurry, Li Feng caught them all in a net he'd prepared beforehand.
Which way is Korin?
Li Feng sensed for his energy.
By now, he was quite skilled at sensing energy and could feel the auras of the most powerful fighters on the planet.
That direction should be Mount Paozu. Are those two powerful auras Piccolo and Gohan? And farther away, that must be Kame House. Krillin and the others should be there...
Up in the sky, besides Kami and Mr. Popo... There!
Whoosh!
Li Feng shot off like a cannonball, the wind he kicked up as powerful as a small shock wave. It split the waves in two once again.
Whoosh!
Li Feng reached Korin Tower.
The wind from his incredible speed swept over Korin Tower, making it sway precariously.
"W-Who are you?" Cat Master asked in surprise, breaking into a cold sweat.
"I'm Li Feng, a friend of Goku's. I came here to trade for Senzu Beans."
Li Feng explained who he was.
"Oh, you're a friend of Goku's. Were you the one who dealt with those Saiyans?"
"That's right."
"And the fish behind you...?"
Korin noticed the fish caught in the net behind Li Feng.
"Cat Master, how about I trade all the fish behind me for all your Senzu Beans?"
Li Feng proposed the trade without batting an eye.
Everyone knew Senzu Beans were worth far more than fish, but Li Feng put on a pained expression as if he were making a huge sacrifice.
Li Feng's acting was top-notch.
"Hahaha, you really don't have to..."
Cat Master drooled as he instantly produced three enormous jars of Senzu Beans.
"Take them!" Afraid Li Feng might change his mind, Cat Master immediately grabbed the net.
Li Feng stored all the Senzu Beans in his storage space.
"By the way, how do Senzu Beans grow?"
"You just plant them in the ground."
"Do they need any special conditions?"
"They need fertile soil. Growing them is rather demanding..."
Li Feng listened and nodded. Since growing them wasn't impossible, he might as well try cultivating them himself.
After all, Yajirobe just wasted them when they were left with Cat Master.
These were strategic resources! Senzu Beans would make the later battles much easier. If he ever faced Frieza—crunch, crunch, crunch! You think 120 million battle power is impressive? Do you know what a Saiyan's body can do? As long as I don't get killed, I'll keep stuffing myself with Senzu Beans until I win by sheer force of numbers!
Ahem, just kidding. Battle power still had to be raised gradually.
Li Feng took out a jar of Senzu Beans, found an open spot at Bulma's house, and asked Dr. Brief to cultivate them.
Come on, this was something so important. Of course he had to leave it to the doctor for the best possible yield!
Dr. Brief was also extremely interested in something that could instantly heal injuries and restore stamina.
Once the preparations were complete, Li Feng flew to an open area on the outskirts of West City and tossed out one of Bulma's Capsules.
Bang!
A hemispherical room nearly a hundred meters wide appeared.
This was the Gravity Training Chamber Dr. Brief had built at Li Feng's request.
Its maximum gravity setting had now been upgraded to one hundred times normal gravity.
"Great! I'll do my best to adapt to one hundred times gravity within a year!" Li Feng set himself an ambitious goal.
Li Feng entered the training room and set the gravity to twice normal.
Boom!
The sudden increase in gravity instantly forced him to bend forward.
Twice normal gravity didn't just increase the weight of his body; it also put twice the pressure on his blood, bones, and everything else inside him.
So this is the gravity Goku and the others trained under before? Li Feng was secretly astonished.
It was hard to imagine how they managed to overcome one hundred or even three hundred times normal gravity later on.
But he had come to the Dragon Ball world and had a Saiyan's physique too. If they could do it, so could he!
So Li Feng began doing basic exercises like squats and push-ups.
Since he wasn't used to the increased gravity, these basic exercises drained him no less than his earlier battles with Goku had.
Half a day passed, and Li Feng had already adapted to twice normal gravity.
In the afternoon, Li Feng began practicing simulated combat.
"Huff! Huff! Huff! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Li Feng kept throwing punches, snapping out kicks, and shifting his stance.
The sluggishness caused by the increased gravity had long since worn off. Li Feng was growing stronger with every moment.
