Piccolo let out a cold snort, glanced at Son Gohan beside him, and spoke.

"Well, Gohan, if there's nothing else, shall we head back?"

"Okay!"

Son Gohan nodded.

"Then Uncle Krillin, if the gravity room is finished, just let Uncle Piccolo know!"

"Pi... Piccolo!"

Hearing this, Krillin's expression shifted instantly as he spoke.

"Um... Gohan, if the gravity room is finished, I'd better come find you myself, okay?"

"That works too!"

"Here, take this capsule. It has toothpaste, a toothbrush, and enough supplies to last you half a year!"

Mr. Popo tossed a Hoi-Poi Capsule to Son Gohan.

"Thank you!"

Son Gohan expressed his gratitude and tucked the capsule away.

Piccolo: "Shall we head back then?"

"Mm!"

Son Gohan nodded.

"Goodbye, Uncle Krillin, and everyone else!"

"Goodbye!"

The group waved farewell to Son Gohan.

Seeing this, Son Gohan immediately departed the Lookout with Piccolo.

"I really didn't expect Gohan to grow so quickly!"

Watching the two leave, Krillin remarked with a touch of emotion.

"Indeed!"

Tien Shinhan nodded.

"We always used to treat Son Goku as our goal, but now..."

Upon hearing this, Krillin and the others lowered their heads one after another.

Although they were eager to catch up to Son Goku, there was no helping it; Son Goku's talent for cultivation and his diligence were both superior to theirs.

After a brief silence, Yamcha suddenly looked up at Krillin.

"So Krillin, why don't you be the one to go find Bulma about the gravity room?"

"Alright!"

Krillin nodded.

In any case, he was no longer part of the main fighting force.

Boom!

With that said, Krillin immediately departed the Lookout.

On the other side.

Son Gohan and Piccolo had returned to their training grounds.

"Well, Gohan, from today on, let's train together, shall we?"

"Train together?"

"Yes! Even though your current strength has surpassed mine, I can still serve as your sparring partner!"

"Well... alright then!"

West City, Bulma's home.

Bulma was currently sitting by a table, looking bored as she flipped through a magazine.

A figure suddenly descended from the sky.

This person was none other than Krillin.

"Bulma!"

"Ah!"

Startled by Krillin's sudden appearance, Bulma jumped up from her chair.

Once she saw who it was, Bulma slapped Krillin's bald head with her right hand.

"Krillin, you nearly scared me to death!"

"What are you talking about, Bulma? I clearly called out to you just now; you were the one who didn't hear me!"

Bulma let out a cold snort.

"Speak up, why did you suddenly come to find me today?"

"Well, it's like this: Son Gohan came to see me today and asked me to beg you to build him a 100x gravity chamber!"

"A... a 100x gravity chamber!"

Bulma was startled.

"That's right! Son Gohan is the strongest among us right now!"

"The strongest? But isn't Son Gohan only five years old?"

"He is! But Son Gohan is a Saiyan; his talent is simply too overwhelming!"

"I see, but I've never built a gravity chamber before. I don't even know if I can pull it off!"

"It doesn't matter, just do your best!"

"Fine!"

One day later.

Son Gohan's combat power reached 100,000.

At this moment, Son Gohan was sitting cross-legged atop a small mountain peak.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for breaking 100,000 combat power. You have obtained the Transformation Technique!"

"Transformation Technique?"

As soon as the voice faded, a massive amount of memories regarding the Transformation Technique flooded into Son Gohan's mind.

"Rewards distributed. Please continue to work hard on your cultivation, host!"

"Understood!"

"What's wrong, Son Gohan?"

Seeing Son Gohan suddenly daze off, Piccolo asked.

"It's nothing, Uncle Piccolo!"

"Is that so!"

After saying this, Piccolo immediately closed his eyes to begin his meditative training.

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

During this week, Son Gohan's combat power broke through one million.

At this moment, Son Gohan was performing one-armed push-ups.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for breaking one million combat power. Rewards: Instant Transmission, Galactic Donut, and 99 Senzu Beans!"

As the voice faded, a massive amount of memories regarding Instant Transmission and the Galactic Donut flooded into Son Gohan's mind.

"Rewards distributed. Please continue to work hard on your cultivation, host!"

"Galactic Donut?"

Son Gohan was stunned after hearing this.

He remembered this technique as something belonging to Gotenks.

"Hey, System, can't you give me some more serious techniques?"

"Serious? Host, what is not serious about the Galactic Donut?"

"It's nothing, this move is just too childish!"

"But Host... aren't you just a child yourself?"

"My appearance is that of a child, but my mental age is already that of an adult!"

"Oh, so you're still a child."

"Damn it, System, if you have the guts, come out and fight me! See if I don't smash your dog head in!"

Upon hearing this, the System let out a yawn.

"Host, I am inside you. If you have the guts, go ahead and hit yourself!"

"You think I don't dare?"

"Then do it!"

After hearing this, Son Gohan gently tapped his own chest with his right fist.

"..."

The system remained silent at this.

"Can't you hit any harder?"

"System, do you really take me for a fool?"

Upon hearing this, the system couldn't be bothered to trade barbs with Son Gohan.

Seeing this, Son Gohan continued his training.

Three weeks passed in the blink of an eye.

Son Gohan's combat power had now reached five million.

At this moment, he stood atop a mountain peak with his fists clenched tight, attempting to transform into a Super Saiyan.

"Aaaah!"

With a loud shout, an incredibly powerful ki suddenly erupted from Son Gohan's body.

The ground for hundreds of thousands of miles around shook violently under the influence of Son Gohan's aura.

As Son Gohan's ki radiated outward, Tien Shinhan and the others at the Lookout all sensed his immense power.

"So... so powerful. This ki... it seems to be Gohan's!"

Yamcha swallowed hard upon hearing this.

Then, he nodded slightly.

At Korin Tower.

Yajirobe, who had been fighting Korin for a fish, stopped what he was doing the moment he sensed Son Gohan's ki, an expression of disbelief crossing his face.

"Th-this ki... could it be Gohan's?"

"Indeed it is!"

Korin nodded.

"Th-this kid... is he some kind of monster?"

Korin looked toward the world below with a calm expression.

"Gohan!"

Krillin, who was currently rushing toward Son Gohan's location, also wore a look of disbelief.

He then picked up his pace, hurrying toward where Son Gohan was.

On North Kai Planet.

Son Goku, who was training on the planet, also sensed Son Gohan's ki.

"This ki... could it be Gohan's?"

"But that's impossible. How could Gohan's strength have grown so powerful all of a sudden?"

North Kai spoke with a grave expression.

"This ki... it is indeed Son Gohan's!"

"It... it really is Gohan!"

Son Goku was startled.

Although he knew Son Gohan possessed immense hidden potential, he had never imagined it was this vast.
