When they first arrived on Earth, the Saiyans were quite curious about the planet. Why had their leader traveled all this way to get here?
There had to be a reason.
"This is a low-level civilization planet. It doesn't seem to have anyone with particularly high combat power."
Greta took out a Scouter and gave the entire planet a basic scan.
The highest combat power was only a little over 200.
Any Saiyan child could dominate the entire planet. Clearly, this world's combat power was low, and its technology wasn't very advanced either.
Could a planet like this really have anything special about it?
Mu Chuan seemed to sense something. He looked toward the Heavenly Temple and smiled amiably, then spoke to the other Saiyans.
"Come on. I'll take you somewhere."
"Once we get there, don't say anything out of line. Do as I say."
Mu Chuan flew toward the Heavenly Temple first, with Carl and the others following close behind.
Seeing a group of aliens heading for the Heavenly Temple, the Guardian of Earth and Popo were startled. They both had a terrible feeling about this.
"This is bad! This is bad!"
"These aliens are heading for the Heavenly Temple! It looks like the one leading them spotted us just now!"
The Guardian of Earth and Popo felt as if disaster was upon them.
But with their heavy responsibilities, neither of them could leave the Heavenly Temple, much less abandon Earth. All they could do was endure their anxiety and panic.
A few seconds later,
Mu Chuan landed at the Heavenly Temple.
Seeing this group of terrifying aliens land, the Guardian of Earth and Popo braced for the worst.
"What business do you aliens have here? Why have you come to Earth? Earth is a peaceful planet. We've never been involved in any conflicts in the universe."
"I am the Guardian of Earth. I hope you will leave as soon as possible."
Though he was very nervous, the Guardian of Earth still stepped forward. It was his duty to protect Earth!
"A god?"
"So weak?"
"Your combat power isn't even 1,000, and you call yourself a god? You're far too weak!"
One of the Saiyans blurted it out. If someone was called a god, their strength shouldn't be too low.
But the Guardian of Earth's strength didn't fit the title at all!
He didn't know that Earthlings were physically weak and that martial arts weren't very popular there. As a result, most people had low combat power. Compared to people from other planets, they simply couldn't measure up.
Being weak was normal!
Mu Chuan waved his hand, stopping the curious Saiyans.
"Guardian of Earth, Mr. Popo, please don't misunderstand. We mean you no harm. We've come in good faith."
The moment he spoke, the Guardian of Earth and Popo were stunned. A trace of fear showed on their faces.
Why?
How did he know them?
It would have been understandable if he knew the Guardian of Earth because he had just introduced himself. But how did he know Popo?
At that moment, they felt a fear unlike anything they'd ever experienced. If their opponents had merely been powerful, they would have been frightened by the vast gap in strength.
But now...
Their opponents seemed to know their identities in advance, as if they could see the future.
The unknown was what terrified them most.
The Guardian of Earth and Popo fell silent. But their widening eyes made it clear that they were deeply shaken.
Their minds were probably in turmoil.
Mu Chuan had no idea what the Guardian of Earth and Popo were thinking. He got straight to the point. "I'd like to learn from Popo how to control my ki. That shouldn't be too difficult, right?"
"As for my men, they'll be training here too. We'll have to rely on you and Popo, Guardian of Earth."
He explained his reason for coming directly.
The Guardian of Earth and Popo were surprised. Just moments earlier, they had been deeply unsettled and conflicted.
Now that they knew why Mu Chuan had come, they were momentarily stunned.
"How to control ki?"
Popo and the Guardian of Earth repeated his words.
Mu Chuan nodded.
Popo carefully sensed the ki of the aliens present. It was certainly immense, and their combat power was undoubtedly terrifying.
But their ki was as exposed as the sun in the sky. They had no idea how to restrain it. Now Popo understood that this might be exactly why they wanted to learn how to control their ki.
With that, the two of them felt inexplicably relieved.
As long as their visitors hadn't come with hostile intentions, that was good. With Earth's size and strength, it had no way to withstand so many terrifying aliens.
"My strength has reached a bottleneck. If I can't control my ki, my skills will be crude in battle, and I won't be able to make proper use of my strength."
"I know what Popo can do, so I traveled all this way to Earth. I hope you and the Guardian of Earth will be willing to teach me."
Mu Chuan spoke with great seriousness.
It was clear that he took this matter very seriously. He wasn't just saying it casually.
The Saiyans behind him grew serious too. They didn't understand what their leader was talking about.
But this was the first time they had seen their leader so serious, especially when he was facing someone with such low combat power.
The black-skinned fellow before them had combat power close to 1,000, but he was still very weak by their standards—no more than an ordinary alien.
Before Planet Vegeta was destroyed, even a Low-Class Warrior would have been stronger than this Black Charcoal Head.
But their leader's serious attitude made them take things more seriously too. They also understood that they would be training here from now on.
If they could learn something, they would be one step closer to their leader.
Perhaps sensing the respect they showed him,
Popo nodded and said woodenly, "I will. Then you can stay here and train."
"Whether you can master it quickly depends on your individual talent. Popo will do everything I can to teach you all I know."
"But Popo has one condition."
"Go ahead..." Mu Chuan gestured for Popo to state his condition.
"If Earth is in danger sometime soon, please help save it. Earth is just too fragile, and the people here are too weak."
"If you were able to find Earth, that means other people from the universe could find it too."
"I only hope that when the time comes, you'll save Earth."
Mu Chuan had no hesitation about this. He quickly nodded and agreed.
Aside from the fact that Popo would teach him how to control his ki—a debt of gratitude in itself—Earth would also become the center of the universe in the future.
Many powerful people would emerge here. That was worth taking seriously.
He also wanted to learn more skills from some of those powerful people.
For example, the infinite energy possessed by the Androids.
That was another skill he really needed.
