Where Are Your Dragon Balls?

After defeating the Android, Sun Yu returned to the aircraft of Dr. Briefs. Seeing Sun Yu back, Bulma ignored the bloodstains all over him and threw herself into his arms, refusing to let go.

"Mr. Sun, it is truly a relief that you are unharmed!" Dr. Briefs rummaged through the plane to find a clean uniform, walked up to Sun Yu, and handed it over, saying, "Please, change into these. I am going to arrange a banquet; I wonder if Mr. Sun would do us the honor..."

Dr. Briefs knew well that Sun Yu and Lana had no resistance to fine food, so Sun Yu naturally could not refuse this suggestion.

"That sounds great, Dr. Briefs, but my sister Lana is still training at the Lookout. I would like to wait for her to finish so we can go together. Why don't you all head back first? Once Lana comes out, I will take her to East City to find you."

Sun Yu dared not go off to enjoy a feast alone; if Lana came out and couldn't find him, she would surely fly into a rage.

Dr. Briefs naturally followed Sun Yu's arrangements, but the little girl Bulma refused to leave Sun Yu's side, clutching his clothes tightly with both hands and ignoring anyone's attempts to persuade her.

"How about I take her to the Lookout? Once Lana comes out, we will head to East City together." Sun Yu had no choice but to propose this.

"Very well." Dr. Briefs spread his hands helplessly. Since Bulma would be staying with Sun Yu, there was no need to worry about her safety, so he readily agreed.

"Dr. Briefs, remember to have the Gravity Training Room ready when we return!"

Sun Yu gave Dr. Briefs a final reminder, then carried Bulma on his back and flew toward the Lookout.

Because he was carrying Bulma, Sun Yu did not fly very fast, but fortunately, the distance to the Karin Sacred Land was not far, so it did not take long to return to the Lookout.

Back at the Lookout, Sun Yu saw the Guardian looking solemn and felt it was inexplicable, so he asked, "Guardian, what is wrong? I feel like you have something on your mind. Is it because I killed those from the Red Ribbon Army?"

Hearing Sun Yu's words, the Guardian shook his head and said, "Those Red Ribbon Army members committed countless evils; killing them can be considered ridding the people of a scourge, a virtuous deed..."

The Guardian paused, walked to the edge of the Lookout, stared silently at the world below, and continued, "I saw your battle with the Android just now. I truly never imagined that such evil things could exist in this world!"

The Guardian was aware of what the Android had said earlier, especially the line, "You will experience the terror of us Androids sooner or later." His use of the word "us" meant that there was more than one Android!

If a failed prototype was this terrifying, how strong would the other successful test subjects be? The Guardian did not know, and this was precisely the source of his anxiety.

"Relax, relax!" Sun Yu walked over, heartlessly patted the Guardian on the shoulder, and said, "No matter if it's an Android or something else that comes, I will defeat them. You can rest assured!"

"That's right, that's right! Big Brother Sun Yu is the strongest!" Bulma also poked her little face out to look at the old man.

The Guardian looked at Bulma's cute face and then at the brimming confidence of Sun Yu, finally sighing helplessly as he said, "I hope so. It seems the future safety of Earth will have to rely on you to protect it!"

Protecting the Earth was originally the duty of the Guardian. Saying this now actually caused him great inner turmoil, but there was no other way. Just like in the original Dragon Ball story, the world no longer needed a Guardian; what people needed were the strong!

At this moment, the Lookout offered a view of the setting sun. Sun Yu sat with Bulma on the edge of the Lookout, quietly watching the sunset in the distance. The sunset represented twilight and also carried the implication of passing away. Having already broken through to the "Knowledge Realm" in martial arts, Sun Yu took this opportunity to silently contemplate the artistic conception of the twilight, and time slipped away bit by bit.

I do not know how much time passed before the east turned white again. Bulma was still sleeping in Sun Yu's arms, but he suddenly woke up, for he felt the pressure of heaven and earth intensify abruptly. Then, a surging energy rippled through the air. The Guardian and Popo both appeared by Sun Yu's side, looking toward the direction of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber on the Lookout in utter shock.

Soon, a beautiful figure walked out of the Lookout. The person who arrived was Lana, who had been training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for a year, though only one day had passed in the real world.

Lana was now a young girl of fourteen. Her exquisite figure had become even more statuesque, and through her tattered training clothes, one could vaguely see her snow-white skin. Her long, beautiful legs were exposed to the air, leaving Sun Yu staring blankly.

Lana's aura swept across everyone on the Lookout like a violent storm, completely unbridled. Sun Yu was fine, as his strength had increased after the battle with the Android, but the Guardian and Popo were not so lucky; under Lana's pressure, the two were already trembling, barely able to hold on.

Through a year of training, her "Micro-Perception" realm had reached near Grand Perfection. However, her martial arts were not like Sun Yu's restrained style; they were entirely flamboyant. The realm of Micro-Perception arises from the heart and vanishes at will; Lana's personality was fiery, so her martial arts were equally flamboyant.

"Hi, Kael, long time no see!... Huh? Isn't this that little girl named Bulma? Why is she here too?"

Lana spotted Bulma in Sun Yu's arms at a glance and immediately reined in her aura, fearing she might frighten the girl. Because of the commotion she had just caused, Bulma had already woken up in Sun Yu's arms and looked very happy to see Lana.

"That is a long story." Sun Yu looked Lana up and down. According to his estimation, Lana's current combat power was definitely over forty thousand. If she exploded with full power, it might even reach fifty thousand. Sun Yu secretly marveled at the magic of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, then told her everything that had happened since she entered.

This included Dr. Briefs coming to find him, his wiping out the Red Ribbon Army headquarters, rescuing Bulma, and encountering the Android.

After listening to Sun Yu's explanation, Lana looked at him with a strange expression and then said something that made his jaw drop:

"So, where are the two Dragon Balls that were originally in the hands of the Red Ribbon Army?"

Oh right, where were the Dragon Balls?
