"There!" Trunks quickly discovered the traces of the battle.

"Hey, Trunks, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Huh? Mr. Sun Wumian? What is going on with this Android? He's different from the Androids I know. Could there be a third one?"

"There will be a fourth and a fifth. History has changed. But as for you, Trunks, three years have passed—how is it that your strength has barely grown?"

"No, in the future, only half a year has passed."

"Is that so? Ah, the weather is too hot. I'm heading back now. Good luck, Trunks."

Afterward, Sun Wumian used Instant Transmission to reach Kame House, then flew back to his own home—well, because it was faster that way.

He then leisurely began to drink coconut milk. Wait, something felt wrong.

"According to the original history, we were all wiped out by two Androids... It seems the future has changed." Piccolo, having discarded his Weighted Clothing, revealed his true power.

"Hmph! Piccolo, hurry up and finish him off. Do you expect me to do it?" Vegeta urged, looking displeased.

"No! I refuse. I am, after all, an evil incarnation split from a god; I am not like Sun Wukong."

Just then, someone approached rapidly, and everyone turned to look.

"Who is it? Ah... that is..."

"Trunks!" Piccolo spoke the name of the youth from the future.

"Hm? Trunks? His name is Trunks? The same name as my son... He came from the future... is that it?" Upon hearing this, Vegeta thought for a moment and finally understood.

"Who is that guy? Did you fight him?" Trunks noticed Dr. Gero down below immediately.

"What? Isn't he the Android you spoke of?" Vegeta asked aloud.

"..." Trunks' expression turned grave. "What is going on here?"

"Is that not right?"

"Huh? What?"

"How can this be!"

Piccolo, Gohan, Krillin, and Tien Shinhan were all stunned.

Dr. Gero, realizing that new people had arrived, decided to head back to his laboratory first.

"Huh? Is that Bulma?" Krillin looked up.

Just as Bulma flew over in her plane, it provided Dr. Gero with an opportunity—talk about a coincidence.

"Hi! Everyone is here! Huh?" Bulma greeted them, only to discover the fact that Android 20 was actually Dr. Gero.

"Danger! Don't come over here, get away!" Trunks shouted a warning.

"I told you, you have no chance of winning! Android 17 and Android 18 will be here soon to kill you all!" Dr. Gero roared, firing a powerful shockwave from one hand, aimed directly at Bulma's plane in the sky.

BOOM!

Amidst the massive explosion, Dr. Gero took advantage of the terrain to escape.

"Phew! You scared me to death! Trunks! You're okay, thank goodness!" Bulma, saved by the future Trunks, said, still shaken.

"He vanished! Damn it! He got away! Curses, we must find him; don't let him run!" Vegeta gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

Whoosh! Suddenly, the future Trunks angrily blocked Vegeta's path. "Why didn't you lend a hand just now? That was your wife and child!"

"How boring! Move aside, don't block my way!" Vegeta sneered.

...Trunks was speechless.

In truth, the reason Vegeta didn't intervene was that their bond wasn't yet firm during this period. Although they had a child, Saiyans had little sense of family, and he was still in his Super Saiyan combat state—he was just being prideful and didn't want to save them. However, had something actually happened, Dr. Gero's head would likely have been blown off.

Furthermore, Vegeta's teeth-gritting anger afterward proved this; otherwise, why didn't Piccolo, Krillin, and the others show as much rage over Dr. Gero's escape? Not to the point of grinding their teeth, at least.

"Krillin, was that old freak just now an Android too?"

"Huh? Yes, he was."

"That must be Dr. Gero himself. I've seen his photo in a scientist's book. Strange, did he modify himself?"

"Hey, that guy is Dr. Gero!" Krillin shouted to the others.

"That Android is Dr. Gero? What on earth is going on?" Vegeta gave up on searching blindly, landed, and asked.

"I've seen his picture. He's a famous scientist, a detestable genius. He probably modified himself to achieve immortality."

"Didn't they say Dr. Gero was killed by the Androids? This is all complete nonsense. Now, even the Androids are different." Vegeta glanced at Trunks and said bluntly.

"I can only say that history has changed..." Trunks could only explain it this way.

"He mentioned Android 17 and 18. Perhaps those are the Androids you spoke of. Tell me their features; I don't want to make a mistake again." Piccolo asked the important questions immediately.

"Let's see... Android 17 is a teenage boy with long black hair and a scarf around his neck... Android 18 is a cute teenage girl, her clothing is somewhat similar to mine. Both have cold, sharp eyes and wear circular earrings. If you look closely, you should be able to tell them apart." Trunks described.

"Ah! A cute teenage girl?" Krillin's focus was different from the others.

"Do they also absorb energy through their hands?" Piccolo asked.

"Absorbing energy? No, their energy is infinite," Trunks denied.

"Infinite? You mean it never depletes?" Vegeta spoke up, sounding rather annoyed. "Tch, what a cheat."

"By the way, where is Mr. Sun Wukong? Why isn't he here?" Trunks asked, looking puzzled.

"He had a heart attack."

"Even the timing of this event is wrong..."

"Bulma, do you know where Dr. Gero's laboratory is? He must have returned to his lab!" Vegeta turned to Bulma and asked.
