The Gravity Chamber Was Complete

Son Gohan eagerly asked, "Are you Goku's family?"

Then he tapped his head. He was the one who had given Goku that name. They might not even know who Goku was!

Son Gohan continued, "Goku is the baby behind me."

It was no wonder Son Gohan was so nervous. While training in the mountains, he had suddenly seen a spherical object fall from the sky. Then he discovered a baby inside it.

Now that he saw they had tails too, the two little ones were probably Goku's family.

If they were Goku's family, letting them take him home would be the best choice.

But the thought made Son Gohan a little reluctant to let him go.

Goku had been rather hot-tempered at first, but after hitting his head, he'd become very well-behaved. Who could dislike such an adorable little fellow?

Ausbie floated behind Son Gohan and looked at the baby in the basket. "Is this Kakarot?"

When she'd returned to Planet Vegeta, Aunt Gine had told her about Kakarot. Now that she saw the little fellow, she thought he was pretty cute, especially his hair. It was exactly like Uncle Bardock's.

Kasso smiled. "You could say we're Goku's family, but something happened at his home. We'll have to trouble you to look after him from now on, old man!"

"Huh?" Son Gohan was a little confused. So they really were Goku's family.

Had some accident happened to Goku's family?

Hearing Kasso's words, Son Gohan figured Goku's family must have been attacked by their enemies, so his parents had sent him away.

Poor kid!

Still, perhaps this was for the best. He no longer had to worry about someone taking away the adorable little fellow.

Kasso had no idea that Son Gohan had already imagined an entire revenge drama in his head.

All he knew was that Goku's great achievements in the future would be thanks not only to the protagonist's halo, but also to the influence of Earth's martial arts.

Goku had trained under Son Gohan from a young age, later followed Master Roshi, and eventually ascended to the Heavenly Realm. This whole series of training had laid a solid foundation for him to reach the pinnacle of martial arts.

So staying on Earth was the best choice for Goku.

Kasso glanced again at the elderly Son Gohan. He wore a black hat and had two tufts of white whiskers. His back was slightly bent, and he looked kind and gentle.

Would this old man really die beneath Goku's feet?

But Kasso didn't plan to tell him that Saiyans turned into Great Apes when they saw the full moon.

Life was full of things one couldn't help. It was best to let many things take their natural course.

He sighed, but then thought that after the old man died, he'd find his true love in the afterlife. All things considered, it was a happy ending.

"Old man, this Dragon Ball is yours, right? I'll borrow it for a while and return it to Goku later," Kasso said, taking out the Dragon Ball.

Kasso said he'd return it to Goku, not to him. He wondered if Son Gohan would understand what he meant.

Son Gohan didn't catch Kasso's meaning. Stroking his whiskers, he said, "Oh, how did the ball end up in your hands? I found it many years ago and kept it because it looked pretty. If it's useful to you, go ahead and take it!"

"Thank you, old man. We'll be going now. Goodbye!"

With that, Kasso shook his head and left with Ausbie.

Watching them go, Son Gohan marveled at their strength. Then he continued searching for herbs. He still had to apply medicine to Goku!

"Brother Kasso, that's Kakarot? He looks so much like Uncle Bardock!" Ausbie clung to Kasso's back, her little face nestled against his neck.

Her warm breath tickled his neck, making him feel itchy. Kasso then pulled Ausbie around and held her against his chest.

Goku did look like Bardock, but that wasn't all. Goten also looked exactly like the two of them. Kasso just didn't know why Goten had grown up looking so different.

At the thought, Kasso chuckled to himself. Maybe he'd offended Akira Toriyama!

He kissed Ausbie on the cheek. "Come on, let's go get something delicious!"

"Yay!"

Hearing there was good food, Ausbie clenched her little fists and lit up like a kitten.

Kasso held Ausbie and flew quickly through the sky. After a month of hard training in the Heavenly Realm, he needed to relax a little.

Besides, using Instant Transmission to go straight to Tights's home would take all the fun out of it.

West City.

The houses here were all very luxurious.

In one large courtyard stood a bowl-shaped building turned upside down, with several other sections nearby.

In the research area, Dr. Brief wore a white lab coat and held a few tools that were impossible to identify. He stood in front of a black metal building, inspecting it closely.

"Almost done!"

After a month of work, Dr. Brief had finally finished building the Gravity Chamber.

The materials required had been substantial, especially the rare metals. Luckily, his family had some in storage. If Kasso wanted to build a second Gravity Chamber, it probably wouldn't be possible.

Suddenly!

A commotion came from outside the door. He looked over and saw his daughter coming in with Kasso and the others.

"You're right on time. You got here just after I finished!" Dr. Brief said with a smile.

"Dad, Kasso and the others are here!"

Tights led Kasso and Ausbie over.

A little girl followed behind them, gazing at the two in front with curiosity.

Bulma muttered, "How did they do that?"

"You're here! I just finished building the Gravity Chamber," Dr. Brief said, pointing to the side.

Kasso looked over. A black metal building came into view, shaped like a fortress.

The Gravity Chamber was about forty square meters in size. Four thick pillars were embedded in the metal walls, seemingly there to keep the chamber stable while it was running.

Under the lights, the entire Gravity Chamber gleamed with a dark metallic sheen!

"Is this the Gravity Chamber?"

Kasso took a few small steps over and touched it with his hand.

Dr. Brief smiled. "I've made all the changes you asked for."

Kasso had previously requested that the Gravity Chamber's gravity settings be controlled by voice. He'd also said it would be even better if it had temperature controls.

Dr. Brief considered those requests minor. What had really taken so long was designing a Music System.

He couldn't stand the thought of a perfect creation lacking a decent Music System. So he'd spent a great deal of time over the past month designing one that could still work under a hundred times Earth's gravity.

Fortunately, he'd managed it. Dr. Brief silently gave himself a pat on the back for his genius.

He wondered if the two little ones would like it.

Emm...

They'd absolutely love it!
