Did I Transmigrate?

'Where is this!! It's so dark. Didn't I just finish watching anime in my rented room?'

Karochi was utterly bewildered. He remembered finishing his day of food deliveries and happily binge-watching anime in his apartment! How did he suddenly lose consciousness, and why couldn't he open his eyes?

Sleep paralysis? A ghost covering his eyes? Panicked, Karochi associated the situation with scenes from horror movies.

Finally, driven by a powerful desire to see the world, he managed to open his eyes.

"Holy crap! A monster!" The moment Karochi opened his eyes, he was terrified by what he saw! A monster with a deep yellow head and an abnormally slender build was staring at him, causing him to flail his arms and legs in fright.

But soon, he discovered something that made his blood run cold: his hands and feet had become short, just like an infant's!! Furthermore, he was inside a container resembling a nutrient tank, with a strange tube covering his mouth and nose.

"What's going on!!?" A strange creature with a crocodile head seemed to notice Karochi's commotion and stepped forward to ask.

The yellow-headed creature was also at a loss and replied with an innocent expression: "I don't know. The higher-ups said this Saiyan named Karochi's parents died in battle, so he was placed in the orphanage's incubation tank!! He was fine just a moment ago; maybe he was just scared by my appearance, hahahaha!"

Saiyan!!? Hearing their conversation, Karochi was stunned! Damn it, is this the Dragon Ball world?? Oh, hell, I'm done for! And it's Planet Vegeta, too!! It's over, it's over. Karochi had no mind to think about Super Saiyan nonsense; the thing he wanted to confirm most was the current time.

He knew that in the original story, the Saiyan planet was destroyed by a massive energy blast from Frieza. If he was unlucky and Frieza acted before he could leave Planet Vegeta, he would be finished!

The only consolation was that in the Dragon Ball world, death wasn't the end; one could go to the underworld and be reincarnated!!

The crocodile-headed alien slapped the yellow-headed alien's head and scolded: "Don't mess around. If anything goes wrong, we'll be held accountable by the Saiyans!"

They were mere laborers tasked with caring for Saiyan infants. Although Saiyans were cold-blooded and warlike, their cultivation of infants was quite impressive—one could say it was comprehensive care.

These incubation tanks all utilized the latest technology from Planet Cold, featuring mattresses as soft as silk and a gentle, comfortable growth environment. The tanks also provided infants with specially processed, high-dosage nutrient fluid at regular intervals to ensure they grew faster and better.

The yellow-headed alien seemed to realize something, his body trembling as his tone became cautious: "Understood, understood!"

With that, the two aliens left the front of Karochi's incubation tank.

'Forget it, I'll just take things as they come!!' Karochi smiled bitterly to himself. After all, the original story didn't specify the exact time Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta! The only thing he could judge by was that the planet was destroyed some time after Goku was born.

Fortunately, within his field of vision, he hadn't seen Goku, Bardock, or Gine in these past few days! That was a piece of good news.

At the same time, Karochi noticed his own information.

Name: Karochi
Parents: Recently confirmed KIA
Potential: Above average
Power Level: 94

Among Saiyans, those with a power level below 30 at birth were low-class warriors, those between 30 and 100 were mid-class warriors, and those over 100 were high-class warriors.

Karochi had just barely touched the tail end of being a high-class warrior!! Although this setting didn't mean much in the later stages of Dragon Ball, it was still useful—for instance, the ability of the Great Elder of Namek to unlock potential and increase power levels! Surely, the better the potential, the greater the boost.

After Son Gohan had his potential unlocked, his power level increased tenfold, making even Vegeta mistake him for Goku at the time—it was truly exaggerated.

At the same time, on Planet Vegeta, potential determined a Saiyan's upper limit. Low-class warriors generally grew to a power level under 2,000, mid-class warriors between 2,000 and 5,000, and only high-class warriors could reach or exceed 5,000.

'Heh, thank goodness I transmigrated! Otherwise, my power level would probably only reach two or three thousand in this lifetime.' With no immediate threat of death, Karochi began planning his training path.

In the original story, the concept of "ki" wasn't detailed thoroughly! But all paths lead to the same destination; the anime Dragon Ball was derived from Chinese qigong culture, and the creation borrowed many elements from Chinese martial arts.

What Karochi needed to do was master the method of controlling "ki" before entering the Saiyan training camp! He had to stay in this nutrient tank for three months before being taken out.

Because his parents had died in battle, Karochi would be temporarily sent to the nursery for a year, after which he would be given his parents' house and belongings! He would then enter the Saiyan training camp for three years of drills.

Karochi closed his eyes and began to feel the flow of energy within his body; it was very clear! But to control it, he needed to be very familiar with the circulation of ki.

Three months later!

Karochi was carried out of the incubation tank, his brown tail curled around his waist as if he were still sleeping!

Seven months later, Karochi left the nursery and received the house left behind by his parents. It was fortunate that he could inherit his parents' points (equivalent to Earth's currency; Saiyan points were earned by completing missions), otherwise, Karochi would likely have starved to death.

Saiyans had an especially terrifying appetite! Karochi could now eat 20 times the amount of an adult from his previous life; it was simply frightening.

"Finally, I can control my ki!!" Karochi let out a long sigh of relief. When he left the nutrient tank, his power level had already exceeded 100. To avoid being too conspicuous, he had mastered ki control in the second month after leaving the tank. Although still rough, he could now manipulate the reading on his scouter.

After one year, his power level had reached 124.

Just then, a knock sounded at the door. Karochi didn't dare delay and immediately went to open it! Standing at the door was a female Saiyan who didn't appear as irritable or impatient as other Saiyans, but rather quite peaceful.

Of course, such Saiyans were rare; they usually had low power levels and worked in administrative roles! Like Goku's mother, Gine, she belonged to this type of Saiyan—innocent and kind-hearted.

"Saiyan Karochi, you are hereby notified to report to the Saiyan training camp in seven days for a three-year intensive training program!" The female Saiyan didn't engage in much small talk, simply relaying the news of the training.

Taking the notice, Karochi bowed politely: "Sorry for the trouble, miss!" He could sense that her power level was much higher than his own.

"Hmm!! Alright, get yourself ready. Someone will come to pick you up for training in a few days." The female Saiyan was stunned by Karochi's polite attitude; after all, Saiyan tempers were notoriously volatile.

After instructing Karochi, she turned and left, likely to deliver other notifications.

Closing the door, Karochi let out a heavy breath. Seven days—to be honest, if he had Goku's gravity machine during these seven days, he might be able to undergo 100x gravity training and see his strength soar to eighty or ninety thousand!! Of course, the possibility was quite low because Karochi was still too young.

However, Karochi still spent these seven days doing basic training, like push-ups! Later on, he even strapped on weights. Although the effect certainly wasn't as good as a gravity machine, it should still be much better than that training camp, right!?
