Piccolo and Biro on Namek

It takes over two days to reach Namek, so I should use this time to get some proper sleep and rest. Yet, for some reason, I feel like something is missing when I try to sleep; my hands feel empty, lacking that familiar sensation I grew accustomed to after spending dozens of days resting with Android 18 in another world.

Upon arriving at Namek and stepping off the spaceship, I was stunned—there are so many people here! The population of this planet has reached over 300, a massive jump from the fewer than 100 there before. I can sense the energy signatures, and there's no mistake, it's definitely 300 people. Now, to find the strongest energy signature; it's 100% Biro. Found him, Instant Transmission.

I appeared instantly beside Biro, who looked a bit bewildered by my sudden arrival.

System, what is Biro's current combat power?

Answering Host: approximately 35 million.

Damn, that's monstrous. This training is truly insane.

What about Piccolo?

Piccolo only has a combat power approaching 10 million.

That's still monstrous, considering how massive the boost is when Piccolo merges with Kami.

In the original story, Piccolo's combat power couldn't even beat Son Goku in his base form.

But after merging with Kami, he possessed power even greater than Son Goku's Super Saiyan 1 at the time. Of course, this was before Son Goku entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, but it's still insane.

How have you been feeling lately, Biro?

"Not bad. Mostly just learning the knowledge a Namekian should have from Piccolo," Biro said.

Piccolo nodded in agreement.

"Haven't you been training?"

"We have, but Piccolo has gained the most. Piccolo has learned the Kaio-ken. Currently, I can withstand a 25-fold Kaio-ken, while Piccolo, like I was back then, is only at 10-fold," Biro said calmly.

"I have to be honest, that seems a bit lackluster. Piccolo, your student Son Gohan's base combat power is already over 70 million, and in his Super Saiyan 2 form, it's over 7 billion. Your combat power levels are looking a bit underwhelming."

"What?" Piccolo said, looking shocked. Although he knew Son Gohan had great potential, he never expected it to be this monstrous.

Piccolo asked, "There's a Super Saiyan 2?"

"Yeah, there are many Saiyan transformations, more than you can imagine, and the multipliers only get more insane."

Piccolo was already feeling miserable. He had already accepted that he couldn't catch up to Son Goku, but now that he couldn't even keep up with Son Gohan, he wondered what the point of his grueling training was.

"No, Piccolo, Son Goku's base combat power is only 69 million, which is currently lower than Son Gohan's. In other words, Son Gohan has already surpassed Son Goku."

"As expected of someone I taught," Piccolo said, looking pleased.

At this moment, Biro asked, "Then, Brother Wei Dong, what about you?"

"My current base combat power is 120 million. If I transform into Super Saiyan 2, my combat power is a bit higher, around 13.2 billion."

"That's nothing, just a drop in the bucket."

Hearing this, Piccolo and Biro broke into a cold sweat.

"By the way, Brother Wei Dong, don't you have a Hyperbolic Time Chamber? If you aren't using it, could you give it to us? Just leave it here on Namek. Piccolo and I still need to train hard; we only just realized how massive the gap in our combat power is," Biro said. "Uh, about that... I actually want to train too. How about we go in together? I don't have anything to do right now anyway, and it's a good chance for me to teach you a few things."

I'll leave the Hyperbolic Time Chamber here for you to train with first; I suddenly have some business to attend to.

With that, I left.

The truth is, a choice had just appeared.

Detected that Cooler has found the coordinates of Namek and intends to invade.

Choice 1: Take the initiative and defeat Cooler. Reward: Potential Unleashed.

Choice 2: Wait for him to arrive and kill Cooler. Reward: Namekian Giant Form Technique and Namekian favorability.

Choice 3: Turn a blind eye. Reward: Metamoran Fusion Technique and Namekian Bloodline Serum.

Choice 4: Train Cooler. Reward: Frost Demon Bloodline Serum.

Huh, it seems like there are quite a few choices, though it doesn't really change anything.

Reminder to Host: This is not a multiple-choice scenario; you must make a single selection.

Then I'll choose 1. None of these other rewards are any good. The Namekian Giant Form Technique is useless and hinders speed, the Metamoran Fusion Technique isn't needed at all, and the Frost Demon bloodline is useless to me and of no value to others.

System, I need Cooler's coordinates.

OK, the coordinates have been uploaded to the spacecraft.

Initiating.
