"Wow, wow, wow! Our Kael has gotten so impressive!" Lana's beautiful eyes curved into crescents as she looked Sun Yu up and down, making his old face flush red.
"Kael, I have a question." Lana fixed her eyes on Sun Yu and spoke seriously.
"Uh, go ahead..." Sun Yu's expression turned a little unnatural. He suspected his cousin would ask him about his Sharingan. It wasn't that he wanted to hide it from Lana; after all, this involved his identity as someone who had crossed over from another world, so he couldn't afford to take it lightly.
"Um... could you teach me how to control my battle power?" Lana asked with a smile.
"Huh?" Sun Yu was taken aback. That was what she wanted to ask? He didn't know whether Lana had noticed anything unusual about his eyes. If she hadn't, that was all the better; it would save him from having to explain. "Haha, so that's what you're asking. To control your battle power, you first need to learn how to control the ki in your body. I can't teach you that right now, but you could come with me to a certain place. We can learn a lot of advanced ideas about ki there."
Sun Yu wasn't lying. He had been able to use energy blasts only because of the copying ability of his Sharingan. To truly master the use of ki, he still needed to go to Earth and find a master. Earthlings had very low battle power, but precisely because of their physical limitations, they had studied ki in such meticulous detail that they could make the most of every last bit of it. In that one respect alone, they were leagues ahead of the Saiyans.
"What place? Come on, tell me!" Hearing that there was somewhere she could learn to control ki, Lana excitedly grabbed Sun Yu's arm and shook it hard.
As Lana held his arm, it kept brushing against certain soft parts of her body. She seemed completely unaware, which made it difficult for Sun Yu to keep his composure. He cleared his throat and tried to stay calm. "That place is called Earth. It's in a small star system in the Milky Way."
"Earth? The Milky Way?" Lana repeated the two unfamiliar names. The two of them soon found the spaceship they had arrived in, but awkwardly, aside from the ships that the others had taken when they left, only one undamaged spaceship remained.
"Kael, there's only one spaceship left. What should we do?" Lana stood with her hands on her hips, brows furrowed as she stared at the only usable ship.
"Sis Lana, how about we squeeze in together?" Sun Yu said with a sly smile.
"Hey, Kael, are you thinking about something naughty again?" Lana's face turned red as a ripe apple, as if she had remembered some indescribable things from before.
"No, no! Sis Lana, my thoughts are perfectly pure!" Sun Yu said, pressing a hand firmly to his chest as though swearing on his conscience.
"Hmph. If I catch you doing anything improper, I'll teach you a lesson." Lana shook a fist at Sun Yu in warning.
And so Sun Yu and Lana squeezed into the spaceship, which had originally only been meant for one person. Once aboard, Sun Yu immediately searched the ship's database for Earth's location. Before long, all the information about Earth appeared before them.
Earth. Maximum detected battle power: none. Its biosphere is fragile, its temperatures fluctuate unpredictably, and its surface gravity is low. Overall assessment: low-grade planet, not worth invading. For any interested buyer with special requirements, we recommend sending a newborn infant. Invasion should be completed within three years.
"Kael, are you sure this is the place you said could teach me how to control 'ki'?" After reading the information about Earth, Lana cast Sun Yu a doubtful look.
"Damn! They actually rated my dear Earth as a planet not worth invading. I wonder if the people of Earth would laugh or cry if they saw this! But, Sis Lana, this really is the place. I promise you'll like it." Sun Yu said.
After that, they set the autopilot and prepared to enter hibernation. The journey from here to Earth would take a year. That meant Sun Yu and Lana would spend a whole year together in this cramped spacecraft. Just thinking about it made him a little excited.
"Kael, what are you grinning about?"
"Nothing, Sis Lana. Let's get into hibernation. A year's a long time."
Once everything was ready, Sun Yu and Lana boarded the spaceship and set off for Earth.
I'm coming, Earth of the Dragon Ball world! Sun Yu shouted in his heart.
Earth, Age 738
As time flew by, the spaceship carrying Sun Yu and Lana had entered the Milky Way. They were now only a few days away from Earth.
By now, Sun Yu had completely lost interest in hibernation. He gazed through the spaceship window at the familiar yet unfamiliar Milky Way, his mind filled with thoughts.
Looking at Lana, who was still fast asleep beside him, Sun Yu remembered how he had woken up several times during the journey. He wasn't some chaste gentleman who could sit unmoved beside a beautiful woman; not doing something would have been letting down the people and the nation! Unfortunately, the girl was extremely alert. The moment he made even the slightest excessive move, she would wake up and give him a thorough beating. That was what had made the long, dull journey so colorful—painful, yet joyful!
Apart from spending every day thinking about taking advantage of Lana, Sun Yu hadn't neglected his training. Whenever he was awake, he activated his Sharingan again and carefully studied the flow of energy through the meridians in his body. Thanks to the Sharingan's incredible ability to see through things, he had gained a preliminary understanding of many of ki's properties. After trying to train in it repeatedly, his ki had become more contained and powerful.
If Lana checked my battle power with her Scouter right now, she'd be shocked! Sun Yu thought to himself.
Soon after the spaceship entered the Solar System, it began to slow down. The lingering effects of its momentum caused the ship to shake violently.
Lana woke up then, rubbing her sleepy eyes before stretching languidly. Her whole body radiated a healthy, wild beauty.
"Wow, is that planet Earth you told me about?" Lana pressed herself against the window and looked at the enormous blue planet. She was a talented intermediate warrior who had fought on countless planets, but she had never seen one so beautiful.
"Hehe, I told you you'd like it. Here's a little secret: Earth's food ranks among the best in the entire universe!" Sun Yu said mysteriously. After all, Earth's cuisine had been good enough to serve as a bargaining chip with the famous God of Destruction Beerus. Who could possibly object if it was called the best in the universe?
"Ah... now you've made me starving! Kael, I don't care—I want to eat!"
