Confused Trunks

King Cold clutched his stomach with both hands, looking at Son Gohan before him with a face full of terror.

Although it was only a single punch, the sensation it gave him was one of excruciating pain.

Son Gohan let out a cold snort, thrusting his right fist forward with force and sending King Cold flying into mid-air.

Immediately, he brought his hands together behind him and chanted.

"Ka-me-ha-me-HA!"

A deep blue energy wave condensed between Son Gohan's hands and blasted toward King Cold.

"No!"

King Cold let out a loud roar, deeply regretting his decision to come to Earth this time.

BOOM!!

The Kamehameha struck King Cold and exploded in the sky.

An immensely powerful storm emerged, instantly tearing King Cold's body to shreds.

After a while, once the explosion dissipated, some black dust drifted down from the sky, but as a gust of wind blew by, that black dust vanished without a trace.

"Is... is he wiped out?"

Krillin stared blankly at the sky and asked.

King Cold's energy was so formidable, yet he had been killed in an instant by Son Gohan, and Son Gohan hadn't even transformed into a Super Saiyan.

"Yeah!"

Son Goku nodded.

Standing beside Son Goku, Vegeta gritted his teeth at the sight.

The stronger Son Gohan's power became, the harder it would be for him to catch up.

Thinking of this, Vegeta immediately flew off toward the sky.

He could not afford to waste any more time here; he had to return to his training and become stronger than anyone else.

Krillin was stunned as he watched.

"That guy Vegeta, why did he leave without saying a word?"

"I think he must have been provoked by Gohan!"

Yamcha said.

"Is that so? Come to think of it, Vegeta is also a Saiyan. Do you think he'll become as strong as Goku and the others in the future?"

"He will!"

Son Goku said with determined eyes.

Just then, Son Gohan flew down from the sky and landed in front of Piccolo and the others.

"Gohan, you're really amazing now, taking out such a powerful guy in one go!"

Krillin praised Son Gohan happily.

"Yeah!"

Son Gohan nodded.

Afterward, Son Goku and the others chatted with Krillin for a while before returning to their respective training grounds.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

On King Kai's Planet.

King Kai was currently lying leisurely on a chair, sipping some freshly brewed tea.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of King Kai, startling him so much that he spat out the tea he had just swallowed.

The figure that had suddenly appeared was none other than Son Goku.

"King Kai, are you alright?"

"Cough, cough!"

King Kai's throat was somewhat choked by the tea, and he coughed a few times.

"Goku, why have you suddenly appeared on my planet?"

Son Goku smiled and said.

"King Kai, I've come here to train!"

"Train?"

"Yeah! Your planet is still the most suitable place for training!"

"..."

King Kai was left speechless after hearing this.

"Goku, my planet is not your personal gym!"

"I know, North Kai, but I'll just be training here for a while!"

"Oh, very well then!"

North Kai was soft-hearted after all and eventually agreed.

"By the way, Goku, that was Instant Transmission you just used, right?"

"Yeah!"

Son Goku nodded.

"Did Son Gohan teach you that?"

"He did! It took me nearly a year to master it!"

"Does Son Gohan know you're here training?"

"He does. He told me I have to go home every day after I finish training!"

"I see!"

"Yeah!"

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, four months had passed.

During these four months, everything remained peaceful.

The Son Goku family had bought a house in West City and moved in.

Thanks to having money, Chi-Chi now spent her days doing laundry and cooking for Son Gohan and the others, and when she had free time, she would invite Bulma to go shopping.

On a large mountain outside West City, a yellow machine shaped like a rocket suddenly appeared.

This machine was the Time Machine of the Dragon Ball world.

After the Time Machine appeared, it quickly descended from the sky.

A young man with purple hair and a long sword strapped to his back flew out from the machine.

This person was none other than Trunks from the future timeline.

After emerging, Trunks quickly stored the Time Machine into a Hoi-Poi Capsule and flew forward.

A short while later, Trunks arrived at the landing site where King Cold's spaceship had landed four months prior.

However, the area was completely empty; there was nothing there.

Trunks looked around, a hint of confusion rising in his heart.

"Strange. According to what Mom said, Frieza and his men should have already arrived on Earth, so why is there no sign of them? Could it be that traveling back to the past has changed history? Or is this not twenty years ago after all? Forget it, I'll just wait and see."

As Trunks spoke, he found a large rock and sat down.

After waiting for ten minutes, Trunks still hadn't seen Frieza or his men arrive, so he stood up from the rock and headed toward West City.

West City, Bulma's house.

Bulma was currently lying on a chair in the backyard, a white facial mask applied to her face.

Just then, a figure suddenly flew down from the sky and landed on the lawn of the courtyard.

This person was Trunks.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Trunks, Bulma instinctively stood up from her chair.

"Um... hello. I'm not a bad guy. I've come from the future to find Mr. Son Goku!"

"Goku?"

Hearing this, Bulma felt her guard lower slightly.

"Yes! May I ask what year and what day it is today?"

"What year? What day?"

Bulma was puzzled by the question, but she still told Trunks the date.

She felt that the Trunks before her was not a bad person.

"Today is August 3rd, Age 764!"

"August 3rd?"

"Yes, why?"

"It's nothing!"

Trunks shook his head, rubbed his chin with his right hand, and began to ponder in his heart.

It seems I really did return to twenty years ago, but the history here seems different from the history I know!

Just then, Bulma peeled the mask off her face and spoke.

"Who are you? And why are you wearing clothes with the Hoi-Poi Capsule Corporation logo on them?"

"This... I cannot tell you for the moment. The only thing I can tell you right now is that I come from the future, and I am here because there is something very important I need to tell Mr. Goku!"

"The future!"

Bulma was shocked.

"Yes! And I hope you can keep this a secret for me!"

"Fine, but what exactly do you need to see Goku about?"

"I am truly sorry, but I can only discuss this matter with Mr. Goku alone!"

"I see!"

"Um... I would like to ask you one thing!"

"What is it?"

"Do you know Frieza?"

"I do, why?"

"Then, has he come to Earth?"

"Earth? Wasn't he defeated by Gohan on Namek?"

"He... he was defeated by Gohan!"

Trunks was shocked.

"Frieza, wasn't he supposed to be defeated by Mr. Goku?"

"No, he was defeated by Gohan!"

"This... what is going on? This is completely different from the history I know!"

"Different?"

"Yes!"

Trunks nodded.
