The Earth's Strongest Who Is Nothing

The Arctic Ice Field of Earth!

"You two are really reckless!" Son Gohan used his ki to lift the pair, feeding each of them a Senzu Bean.

"Whoosh!!"

Both of them instantly recovered to their peak condition!

However, unlike Piccolo, the energy radiating from Sun Wukong felt different; just by sensing his aura, one could tell that Sun Wukong had become significantly stronger than he was moments ago!

"Sun Wukong, you're a freak. No, wait... you and your son are both freaks!" Piccolo snapped, his tone instantly sour.

During the time Son Gohan had been training with King Kai, Sun Wukong and Piccolo had already sparred dozens of times!

At the beginning, Piccolo had been able to hold the upper hand by relying on the strength he gained from having his potential unlocked by the Grand Elder!

But as time went on, he found himself less and less of a match for Sun Wukong.

"Piccolo, you're very strong too!" Sun Wukong offered comfortingly.

"Get lost! Don't think I don't know... during that last fight, you were suppressing your ki to match mine. That wasn't even your full power!" Piccolo cursed in disgust.

"Ah, haha, well..." Sun Wukong scratched the back of his head, looking embarrassed.

Son Gohan looked closely; at full power, Sun Wukong should have a combat power of around 28,000, while Piccolo only had 15,000!

For the fight to have reached that stalemate, Sun Wukong must have been intentionally suppressing his strength.

"Fighting is only interesting when it's evenly matched; that's the only way to improve. Besides, Piccolo, that new technique you developed, the Demon Killer Light Cannon, is simply invincible. Its destructive power far exceeds your current strength!" Sun Wukong praised.

"Sun Wukong, stop being so sickening. I'm not an idiot. Although my Demon Killer Light Cannon is strong, the charge time is its biggest flaw. Only a fool like you would wait for me to finish charging!" Although Piccolo didn't admit it out loud, the slight upturn of his lips showed he was enjoying the praise.

"Piccolo, if you want to surpass my father, you need to put the fusion with Kami on your schedule!" Son Gohan reminded him.

"I don't need you to tell me that! I have my own plans!" Piccolo frowned.

In truth, he wanted to fuse, but he feared that Kami's personality and thoughts would influence his own, creating a knot in his heart he couldn't untie.

"I have a different opinion than you two; I don't suggest you fuse with Kami right now!" Sun Wukong interjected.

After Son Gohan took Piccolo to Namek and returned to tell Sun Wukong about the Saiyans, their perspectives had broadened significantly. Piccolo no longer obsessed over conquering Earth or defeating Sun Wukong.

As for Sun Wukong, upon hearing that the universe was filled with countless powerhouses, his fighting spirit had been reignited!

The deep-seated grudges of the past had vanished into thin air during the dozens of times they had sparred.

Yet, their way of interacting still maintained the facade of bitter enemies.

"Sun Wukong, are you afraid I'll surpass you?" Piccolo asked.

"No, I'd be excited if you surpassed me. What I mean is, your current strength is nowhere near your limit. According to what Gohan and you have said, your power would increase exponentially once you fuse with Kami! But your base strength is so low right now... even with that increase, how strong could you really get? You've seen Gohan's Super Saiyan form; do you have the confidence to surpass that?" Sun Wukong explained.

"Sun Wukong, you're talking nonsense! What do you mean my base strength is 'so low'?? Are you looking down on me? If you've got the guts, let's fight again!" Piccolo had completely missed the point!

"..." Son Gohan was speechless.

"Can you focus on the main point?!" Sun Wukong said helplessly.

"I understand what you're saying, but I feel like it's hard to improve my strength without a special method. Even the Grand Elder didn't tell me the specific way for a Namekian to increase their power!" Piccolo furrowed his brows.

"I have a way for that!" Son Gohan began to chime in.

"What way??"

Piccolo and Sun Wukong both turned their gazes toward Son Gohan.

"At the end of Snake Way in the Underworld, there is a small planet called King Kai's Planet. I've been training there for the past few days! Although North Kai isn't particularly strong, he is very knowledgeable, and he has a technique that increases one's strength during battle!" Son Gohan began to recount his time on King Kai's Planet.

"King Kai Fist???" Both of them widened their eyes.

"That's right... the King Kai Fist!!" Son Gohan shouted!

Red waves of energy erupted around his body! The terrifying shockwaves blew the other two away instantly!

Whoosh!!!

After Son Gohan retracted the King Kai Fist, the two of them flashed back over!

"Gohan, can I learn it??" Sun Wukong looked excited.

Piccolo was the same, his eyes filled with anticipation as he looked at Son Gohan.

"Father, I'm your son, so if I can learn it, you certainly can. But as for Piccolo... Namekians and humans have different physical structures; I'm not sure if he can learn it! However, I can send you both there so King Kai can teach you personally!" Son Gohan said.

"Son Gohan, are you discriminating against me? What do you mean my physical structure is different from humans? If I'm different, aren't you Saiyans the same?" Piccolo was very unconvinced by Son Gohan's words.

"Sorry... other than their bloodline and tails, Saiyans and humans are actually quite similar!" Son Gohan said, teasing Piccolo.

"You!!!! Hmph!" Piccolo was so frustrated he didn't even know how to argue back.

"Gohan, then send us over! Hurry, hurry, I can't wait!" Sun Wukong urged.

"Father, are you sure you don't want to tell Mom??" Son Gohan asked, looking worried.

"Ah... Chi-Chi... I suppose I should go tell her!!" Sun Wukong froze instantly upon hearing that.

Mount Paozu!!

"What?! Going to the Underworld to train? Have you lost your mind? Is the Underworld a place for the living? And what about the family if you leave? You don't even earn a living, just scraping by with hunting. If you leave now, what will Gohan eat and drink? What will I eat? What will I drink..." Chi-Chi pointed at Sun Wukong and unleashed a torrent of angry rebukes.

She didn't repeat a single word, mixing insults with grievances, tears, bitterness, and rage.

"Gohan... how about... we don't go?" Sun Wukong said cautiously.

Outside the house, Piccolo's expression turned instantly blank!

Because Namekians have highly developed hearing, he had naturally overheard Sun Wukong's words!

What "strongest on Earth"... what a load of crap. His wife is the real deal, isn't she? Wives—terrifying creatures. Thank goodness I'm a Namekian and don't need one... asexual reproduction is the ultimate truth!!

Inside the house, Chi-Chi was still rambling on with her complaints!

"Mom, I'm also going to be away for a while, so you don't need to worry about what I'll be eating!" Son Gohan added fuel to the fire.

"What? You're leaving too? Sun Wukong, look at the mess you've made! Letting Gohan train with you was the biggest concession I've ever made. Now you want to take my Gohan to the Underworld too? Poor me, so young, losing both a husband and a son... waaaaaah!" Chi-Chi immediately assumed it was Sun Wukong's fault that Gohan had to report to the Underworld.

She burst into tears instantly, wailing loudly!

"Gohan... you handle this!" Sun Wukong nudged Gohan with his shoulder.

Son Gohan had no choice but to step in and coax her himself: "Mom, we aren't dying; we're just going to train. Besides, if Dad and I are away for a while, you can finally get some rest! You could go visit Grandpa, go out for a trip, buy some cosmetics or something... Don't worry about money. Your son is so smart, we'll never have to worry about money again. Look, this is the payment Aunt Bulma gave me. There's one hundred million in here, take it and spend it!"

"One hundred million???" Chi-Chi snatched the bank card from Gohan's hand at super-light speed! Her eyes sparkled with golden light!

But she instantly suppressed her greed and scolded, "Gohan, how could you take money from your Aunt Bulma? Even if we're poor, we can't just take people's money for nothing!"

"Mom, I told you, this is payment. Aunt Bulma asked me for help, and this is my reward. It's not for nothing!"

"I don't believe you!"

"If you don't believe me, call Aunt Bulma and ask her!"

"Hello, is this Bulma? Gohan came back and said..."

Chi-Chi immediately dialed Bulma's number!
