Wishes in Progress

"The second wish, is it still this simple? Are you sure you don't want to change it?" Porunga no longer hid his thoughts, speaking bluntly.

At this moment, he actually wanted Vegeta to change to a more difficult wish; after all, granting a living being the ability to survive in outer space was far too simple for him.

"No need. Since it's simple, let's hurry up and grant it. After all, there is still a third wish," Vegeta said.

Listen to that—this is how a Dragon should speak.

Earth Shenron, while his appearance is nothing to write home about, when it comes to granting wishes, one can only chuckle...

"Very well, I shall grant your second wish now." As Porunga spoke, a red light flickered in his eyes once again.

Boundless, majestic wish-power transformed into miraculous force, bestowing upon Vegeta a magical ability at the very root of his being.

"I feel as though the activity of the cells within me has changed. What is going on? A single ability shouldn't be enough to cause such a massive reaction in my body, right?" Vegeta was shocked, feeling his strength rise once more, and asked.

Porunga nodded, wearing an expression that suggested this was only natural. "That is only to be expected. The ability to survive in space is too singular, so I improved your cellular tissue on that foundation. Not only does your body now possess a more powerful self-healing ability—even allowing for the regeneration of severed limbs to a certain extent—but in the process of strengthening your cells, I also indirectly increased your potential and unlocked it. Although the room for development isn't massive, you should be able to feel that your current strength is a few notches higher than before."

Not only the ability to survive in outer space and self-healing, but he also boosted his potential and unlocked it to increase his strength...

He had saved several wishes in one go!

He had originally been thinking about whether he should try to wish for the kind of body and self-healing ability that Majin Buu possessed, but now it seemed there was no need for such trouble.

Although his version was a low-spec one, it was more than enough for him.

If he truly obsessed over obtaining the body and self-healing of Majin Buu, he might, in a roundabout way, cease to be a Saiyan and become a Majin instead.

"My thanks. You've solved so many problems for me at once and cleared my mind, so I won't have to fret over these things anymore." It must be said, Vegeta even suspected that Porunga could see through his thoughts; otherwise, how could he have so naturally helped him realize everything he had been considering?

"I merely performed a slight enhancement based on your wish; I did not touch upon any prohibited operations. Now, you may state your third wish. This time, pray it is not another simple one," Porunga continued.

Hearing his words, Vegeta felt relieved.

Why dwell on whether he had seen through him?

The wish had already been granted, which meant it had become reality. What he needed to think about now was what to choose for his third wish.

Originally, he had many wishes he wanted to realize, but after Porunga's recent display, he found it truly difficult to make a choice.

After pondering for a long while, until Porunga urged him again, Vegeta finally made up his mind and looked up to meet his gaze.

"%￥#@&*￥%... (My third wish is: let me, and even my future family and descendants, be immortal and free from all illnesses!)"

Immortality! Free from all illnesses!

This was the wish every transmigrator dreamed of.

Now that it had been spoken from Vegeta's own lips, it could be considered as resolving a knot in his heart regarding this matter.

If one had to name the most infuriating thing about the Dragon Ball world, it was that no matter how strong one's power was, it was difficult to escape birth, aging, sickness, and death.

Of course, whether one becomes truly eternal after ascending to godhood in the late Super era is unknown.

After all, when he transmigrated, the Super storyline was still in its development stage, and it didn't involve the realm of immortality, but he guessed that at the very least, it would be different from an ordinary person.

"Is this your third wish?" Porunga murmured.

For a moment, there was silence.

The first two wishes were indeed simple and low-difficulty, but this one had suddenly raised the stakes.

Porunga felt that he had been too talkative earlier.

A long time passed without an answer from Porunga, and Vegeta's heart skipped a beat.

"What? Is this wish impossible to grant?" Vegeta asked.

Huge beads of cold sweat rolled down Porunga's face. After hesitating for a moment, he finally replied: "If it were only for you alone, this wish could indeed be granted. However, there is one thing you must know: once you obtain such an immortal body, the ability to reproduce will be lost. As for your future spouse, they may be influenced by you to a certain extent, thereby achieving a degree of eternal youth and immunity to illness, but they cannot be truly immortal unless a separate wish is made."

Once Porunga finished speaking, Vegeta understood almost everything.

So, the price of immortality was that the body would be altered, resulting in the loss of the ability to reproduce.

"In that case, do you still wish to realize this wish?" Porunga looked at Vegeta, waiting for an answer.

After a long while, a flash of inspiration suddenly crossed Vegeta's mind. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he said: "Then, what if I change the wish to eternal youth? Would I still lose the ability to reproduce? Also, if I can retain the ability to reproduce while granting the wish, will my future family and children inherit this eternal youth?"

Modifying the details—although the wish was no longer immortality, but merely eternal youth, it was still a long life.

"If it is like that, it is possible. However, the years of longevity will not be infinite; it may only last for a few hundred to a thousand years... Additionally, this inherited ability is attached to you; you will be the one to bestow eternal youth upon your future spouse. But the children born to you and your spouse may only inherit half of the eternal youth, and then the children born to your children will have an even weaker effect..." Porunga's answer barely met the bottom line of Vegeta's requirements.

Actually, even this was already an outrageous thing.

After all, it wasn't just realizing eternal youth for himself; this could sustain eternal youth for three or even four generations.

"Then let it be so. Grant this wish, Porunga." Vegeta nodded and said.

"Very well, I shall grant it now." Red light flashed in Porunga's eyes.

Wish-power once again transformed into miraculous force, performing a deep transformation on Vegeta once more.

Since the ability was bestowed without altering his origin, it would not change the essence of him being a Saiyan.

After just over ten seconds, Vegeta had already sensed the changes in his body, and in his mind, there was an additional ability to bestow eternal youth upon women.

As long as it was a woman with whom he had a relationship, he could selectively grant eternal youth to her, or take it back, and there was no limit to the number.

Porunga was truly worthy of being Porunga; he would never disappoint.
