For the next three months, Sun Yu and Lana remained at Kami's Lookout to cultivate.
Under Sun Yu's guidance, Lana's mastery of ki successfully entered the realm of subtlety. Once she reached this level, her combat power skyrocketed, appearing as though it would soon break through the ten-thousand mark. As for Sun Yu, because he had been focusing on comprehending his inner state, his combat power remained temporarily lower, hovering around seven or eight thousand.
However, how could strength be measured purely by combat power?
Among everyone at Kami's Lookout, only Lana herself was unaware that Sun Yu's true strength had long since surpassed hers, and that was without even accounting for the combat assistance of his Sharingan!
In the world of Dragon Ball, a numerical combat power advantage can directly crush a martial arts realm, but between two people with similar combat power, the martial arts realm becomes the deciding factor in battle.
Later, Lana, believing she was leading the way, decided to spend her one opportunity to enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber in order to break through ten thousand combat power more quickly and leave Sun Yu in the dust.
"There's no need to waste this opportunity so early. You aren't even an adult yet, and your combat power isn't fully developed. Even if you had a year, you wouldn't improve much! Everything must be done step by step."
That was how Sun Yu tried to persuade Lana, but unfortunately, the little girl wouldn't listen; the explosive growth of her combat power over these three months had made her quite arrogant! Especially her chest... ahem, in any case, Lana's mind was now filled with the idea of running off to Planet Vegeta to become the new queen once her combat power broke ten thousand! She even said that once she became queen, she might consider rewarding Sun Yu with a minor prince title, which made Sun Yu feel very awkward!
Just after Lana entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Kami told Sun Yu something very strange.
"Sun Yu, many patrol planes have appeared near the lookout in the last two days. They seem to be searching for something! However, because there is a gravity shield near the lookout, they cannot find us at all."
As soon as the topic of searching for something came up, Sun Yu immediately thought of the Dragon Ball he possessed. Could it be the Red Ribbon Army? This was highly likely; he had previously killed General Blue of the Red Ribbon Army's Blue Squad, effectively forging a blood feud, and since he held a Dragon Ball, it made perfect sense for the Red Ribbon Army to mobilize their forces.
"No!" Kami directly denied Sun Yu's conjecture, saying: "Those planes do not have the Red Ribbon Army's insignia. Their insignia is... Capsule Corp, the Capsule Corp!"
"Oh?" Hearing Capsule Corp, Sun Yu was very surprised. How could Dr. Briefs possibly send planes to find him here! Even if he wanted to tell him that the gravity training room was ready, there was no need to make such a big scene. When things are abnormal, there must be a demon!
"So it's Capsule Corp. Lord Kami, I think they must be looking for me. I'll go take a look!"
"Hmm, please be careful."
Bidding farewell to Kami, Sun Yu quickly flew out of the lookout's force field and headed toward the nearest plane.
At this moment, the pilots of the patrol planes hovering near Korin Sacred Land suddenly discovered that the radar coordinates shared by their boss were moving at high speed, so they began **reporting to the boss.
"Report to boss, target position has changed, repeat, target position has changed! Current coordinates, east longitude..., north latitude..."
"Report to boss, target position has changed again, repeat, target position has changed again, current coordinates are..."
"Report to boss..."
Dr. Briefs, the president of Capsule Corp, after receiving this series of reports from his subordinates, slammed the communication equipment shut and quietly watched a figure flying in from the distance.
After Sun Yu approached the plane, through the glass window of the cockpit, he happened to see Dr. Briefs sitting inside, so he greeted him: "Hi, Doctor, it really is you! Why did you suddenly come to Korin Sacred Land?"
The side door of the plane opened, and Briefs waved at Sun Yu, "Mr. Sun, come in and talk."
"Hmm, alright."
Sun Yu flew into Briefs' plane. After entering, he found that Mr. Briefs was clearly much more haggard, his already thin frame appearing even more frail.
"Mr... Mr. Sun, I am truly at my wit's end now. It's all my fault, I... I..."
Seeing Dr. Briefs' near-collapse, Sun Yu's heart tightened. He stepped forward, pressed his hand on Dr. Briefs' shoulder, and comforted him: "Doctor, just tell me what happened. As long as I can help, just give the order!"
After hearing Sun Yu's words, Dr. Briefs finally explained the cause of the incident.
It turned out that after Commander Red of the Red Ribbon Army learned of the existence of the Dragon Balls, he exhausted all efforts to search for them. Because Dr. Gero helped invent the Dragon Radar, they had indeed found two Dragon Balls during this time.
Afterward, Commander Red helplessly discovered that the remaining five Dragon Balls had gathered together, and he quickly associated this with the two young people Dr. Briefs had mentioned while drunk that day. According to reports from the remnants of the Blue Squad that Sun Yu had wiped out, Sun Yu's combat power was very high, so Commander Red came up with a rotten idea. Hearing that Sun Yu was very close to Capsule Corp, he directly kidnapped Bulma, attempting to force Sun Yu to hand over the remaining five Dragon Balls.
"Mr. Sun, it's all because I spoke out of turn while drunk..." Briefs' voice was choked with sobs, "They said if we don't hand over the Dragon Balls within three days, they will kill the hostage! Poor little Bulma..."
Although Dr. Briefs was the richest man in the future world, at this time he was still in the growth phase of his career and was simply not enough to confront the Red Ribbon Army, which already possessed large-scale military power. After much thought, he could only choose to seek help from Sun Yu, this exceptionally powerful youth.
"Animals! These animals! They are truly tired of living, daring to lay a hand on Bulma!"
A dragon has a reverse scale, and touching it means death! Although it was too early to say that Bulma was Sun Yu's reverse scale, there was no denying that Sun Yu cared deeply about Bulma's safety!
I believe many people are the same as Sun Yu; the most beloved female character in the Dragon Ball anime is undoubtedly Bulma. That playful, beautiful, and energetic girl is the dream lover in the hearts of countless people. Sun Yu was overjoyed the first time he saw Bulma after transmigrating, and he looked forward to watching Bulma grow up bit by bit...
However, the ignorant Red Ribbon Army dared to kidnap Bulma. Sun Yu sentenced them all to death in his heart. After clarifying the location of the Red Ribbon Army, Sun Yu left behind the words, "Rest assured, I will bring Bulma back safely," and then broke through the wall with a boom.
Sun Yu flew in the air, sneering, secretly swearing in his heart that if the Red Ribbon Army dared to hurt a single hair on Bulma's head, he would grind the entire Red Ribbon Army to dust to vent his hatred!
Perhaps even if Bulma were killed, the Dragon Balls could revive her, but Sun Yu did not want her to experience life and death so early. If possible, he hoped that in Bulma's future life, she could always be under his protection.
Just like in the original work, whenever Bulma encountered a huge crisis, she would think, "If only Goku-kun were here," Sun Yu hoped that whether the Earth was destroyed or if Majin Buu were to slaughter all of humanity in the future, Bulma would smile and think to herself:
"With Sun Yu here, everything will be alright!"
