Transforming into a Great Ape

Mount Paozu

"Gohan, thank goodness you arranged everything with Bulma in advance, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to get out!" Sun Wukong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

It turned out that before informing Chi-Chi, Son Gohan had gone to Bulma's house first!

Using the spaceship Sun Wukong rode in when he was a child, he asked Bulma for a reward!

Although the spaceship was for him to make a gravity chamber, the technology that could travel the universe had indeed benefited Bulma's family a lot!

Bulma was also very generous, directly giving him a bank card with one hundred million, and also said that if it wasn't enough, he could ask her for more!

Gohan also guessed that Chi-Chi would call Bulma to inquire, so he discussed everything with Bulma in advance to deal with Chi-Chi!

The process was even more serious than he imagined, and Chi-Chi was furious, but fortunately, the outcome was without danger.

After Bulma casually found an excuse to appease Chi-Chi, Chi-Chi let the father and son go and took their luggage to Ox-King's house.

"Dad, it's not your fault. Who told you to blow up Grandpa's castle back then, that's why we're so poor. It's a pity that I'm only two years old and I have to find a way to earn money to support the family!" Son Gohan complained.

"Ah... this!! Hehe,," Sun Wukong was naturally unable to deal with Son Gohan's words.

"Okay, are you two done talking? You're so slow! Two terrifying Saiyans are being controlled by a woman!" Piccolo couldn't stand it anymore.

He simply couldn't understand such a warm family scene!

Every second was torture for him!!

"What's the hurry? You don't even have a chance to be scolded by a woman. Who would fancy a guy like you with a green face and a glowing green head!!" Son Gohan immediately mocked him upon hearing this.

"Tch, this great king doesn't need useless women!!"

"Oh, I forgot... you hatched from an egg, you're not a mammal!! It's a pity that you can't enjoy the most beautiful emotions in this world!" Son Gohan retorted with sarcasm.

"Emotions are the bonds that make one stronger!!!" Piccolo said coldly.

"Cold-blooded and heartless guy!!"

King Kai's Planet

"Lord King Kai, I've brought the people for you. This is the all-around genius from Planet Namek, and this is a low-class Saiyan warrior, my father. But for your Spirit Bomb, I estimate that only someone as simple and kind-hearted as my father can learn it!" Son Gohan introduced the two to King Kai.

"Hmm. I hope so!!" King Kai said.

"Alright, I'm leaving. I'll leave these two to you. Contact me when they learn it. I'll be in the North Galaxy, not going far!" Son Gohan said and instantly moved away.

Sun Wukong and Piccolo also stayed on King Kai's Planet and began to train under King Kai's arrangement!

Adapting to gravity, catching Bubbles, hitting Gregory, telling cold jokes... nothing was missing!

Son Gohan's side!

He was currently on Earth's satellite, the Moon!

"This vacuum of space is indeed unfathomable! Fortunately, I made a wish to Shenron, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to survive!" Son Gohan carefully sensed everything in his body.

Ever since he made a wish to Shenron, his body had gained a new function. This was his first time in the vacuum of space, and he could feel it clearly!

He felt all the pores on his body slightly open, absorbing the trace amounts of energy in the vacuum, and then converting them into nutrients needed by his body... completing the replacement of oxygen.

Asking King Kai for the King Kai Fist was just a small step in his plan!!

Now, he was going to start experimenting whether he could control his sanity after transforming into a Great Ape and not be affected by the violent beast nature.

Whoosh!!!

Son Gohan looked around and chose a suitable target to instantly move to.

This location was perfect for a full view of the moon, and it was under the sun's illumination, where the Burz Light could be maximized.

Son Gohan stared at the moon with wide eyes... his tail suddenly moved on its own, pointing towards the moon.

In less than three seconds, his body underwent an anomaly!!

His heart began to beat rapidly, and his eyes turned scarlet.

His muscles swelled... his body began to grow dark brown fur!!

His mouth protruded and elongated!!!

Son Gohan clearly sensed that energy was continuously emerging from the tail behind him!!

And within this energy, there was a very violent and wild beast nature mixed in!!

But Son Gohan had lived two lives, and with Shenron's blessing, his soul power had been strengthened!

He could easily suppress this beast nature and perfectly control his sanity!

"Roar!!! Awooo,,"

A massive Great Ape stood proudly in the starry sky, roaring at the heavens!!

"As far as I know, Super Saiyan 4 is achieved by transforming into a Great Ape and then transforming into a Super Saiyan again. I wonder if I can directly skip Super Saiyan 2 and 3 and transform into Super Saiyan 4?" Once curiosity strikes, it cannot be controlled.

Son Gohan began to try, using the body of a Great Ape to initiate the Super Saiyan transformation!!

Pfft!! Bang!! Crackle

The moment he unleashed his power, his muscles collapsed, blood sprayed from his skin, bones snapped, and he suffered multiple fractures, severely injuring himself!

"Damn it!! Clothes, Senzu Beans!!" He used Instant Transmission with his last breath, returning to the spot where he had appeared on the moon earlier!

Barely restoring his human form, he grabbed a Senzu Bean from his belt and swallowed it!

"Whew... that was close. One second later, and I'd have been finished. Talk about asking for trouble..." Son Gohan stood up, putting on clothes and muttering to himself!

The instant he unleashed his power and triggered the Super Saiyan transformation, a terrifying and uncontrollable energy surged through his body!

That energy had erupted from his tail!

Fortunately, he abandoned the transformation instantly, and the power receded back into his tail, saving his life!

"It seems my body's current strength is far from enough to handle the Super Saiyan 4 transformation. With that kind of power, I'd need a breakthrough in my life level to control it! Could it be that I need to become a God before I can transform into Super Saiyan 4?" Son Gohan began to ponder.

After much thought, he couldn't find a good solution to his current predicament!

"Whatever. My current strength should be enough to handle what's coming. There's still over a year before my uncle Raditz arrives on Earth! The Dragon Ball Z storyline is finally beginning!" Son Gohan muttered to himself.

Son Gohan began to plan how to deal with the events that were about to unfold!

Raditz, Nappa, Vegeta, even Frieza, he didn't fear them now.

But this was just the beginning!!

After testing the Great Ape transformation, Son Gohan moved on to his next plan!

He needed to find Thunder Steel! To have Bulma build him a gravity chamber!

He had originally thought of wishing for it directly on Namek, but wasting such a wish that could grant anything felt like a pity!

Later, he planned to go directly to Kaioshin Star and ask the current Kaioshin, Shin, for Thunder Steel!

But he remembered that in the original story, during the Majin Buu saga, Kaioshin Shin and his divine servant Kibito had appeared and boasted that they could kill Frieza with a single finger!

While he could now kill Frieza with ease, he couldn't claim to do it with a single finger.

To be safe, it was best not to interact with them yet!

So, he decided to use this year-plus time gap to travel the universe and search for Thunder Steel!

After all, with Instant Transmission, traveling the universe would be much easier! And he could instantly return to Earth!

Son Gohan closed his eyes, his mind exploring planets with life.
