Borrow!

"Sister, I can fly on my own."

At this moment, Mo Yuan and Lazuli had already parted ways with Lapis and Android 16.

Mo Yuan and Lazuli were heading to the Lookout to train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Meanwhile, Lapis and Android 16 continued on their way toward Son Goku's house.

Once they dealt with Son Goku, they would rendezvous with the other two at the Lookout.

Just after stepping out of the car, Mo Yuan was embraced by Lazuli again, prompting him to offer a small suggestion.

Lazuli remained expressionless, her tone laced with a hint of disdain: "You fly too slowly."

"Oh, alright then."

Mo Yuan felt a bit dejected, burying his head into her snowy peaks to comfort himself with a "face wash."

Lazuli toyed with Mo Yuan's tail, a triumphant smile appearing on her face: Little brat, you still want to fight me? (≖ᴗ≖)✧

Mo Yuan: Got me.

"Hold on tight."

Lazuli gave a warning, mobilized the energy within her body, and began to accelerate.

Mo Yuan reluctantly lifted his head from the gentle haven and said to Lazuli, "Sister, let's stop by West City first; there's something I need to pick up there."

"Mm."

Lazuli didn't ask questions and simply changed direction.

A few minutes later.

Lazuli and Mo Yuan arrived at Bulma's home in West City.

The purpose of coming to Bulma's house was, naturally, to obtain the training cheat: the "Gravity Chamber."

After all, Mo Yuan's combat power was still too low.

To rapidly increase his strength, relying solely on the 10x gravity of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber was not enough.

One had to remember that Son Goku could withstand 100x gravity with a combat power of 90,000.

Since the Hyperbolic Time Chamber already had ten times the gravity of Earth, using the Gravity Chamber inside would yield effects exceeding ten times Earth's gravity.

Mrs. Brief looked at the two strangers who had descended from the sky, her eyes opening wide in a rare display of surprise.

"May I ask who you are looking for?"

Mo Yuan looked at the beautiful blonde young woman before him and recognized her immediately; this was Bulma's mother, Mrs. Brief.

"Hello, Mrs. Brief. We are looking for Miss Bulma."

"Bulma is out on business. Is there something you need from her, you cute little brother?"

Although Mo Yuan had horns on his head and a tail behind him, he couldn't help but be adorable!

That cute appearance instantly captured Mrs. Brief's heart.

Seeing Mrs. Brief's affectionate tone, a cold glint flashed in Lazuli's eyes.

Mrs. Brief suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

The hair on her body stood on end.

"Strange, why does it feel so cold?"

Mrs. Brief rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, her gaze sweeping over the Lazuli standing next to Mo Yuan.

"We'd like to borrow a Gravity Chamber from Miss Bulma," Mo Yuan said.

"A Gravity Chamber, huh..." Mrs. Brief thought for a moment.

"I know where it is; I'll have someone bring it over. Bulma seems to have something important to attend to, and I have no idea when she'll be back."

Mrs. Brief immediately made a phone call.

Before long, a robot arrived carrying a small box.

The item inside the small box was the Gravity Chamber, shrunk down into a Hoi-Poi Capsule.

Mo Yuan never dreamed he would get his hands on it so easily.

He had expected to resort to some coercion or bribery.

Were the people in Dragon Ball really this naive and innocent?

They believed him after just a few words (O_O)?

Baffled, Mo Yuan thanked Mrs. Brief and left with Lazuli, clutching the Hoi-Poi Capsule.

Although he couldn't figure it out, getting the item was a good thing.

Unless absolutely necessary, Mo Yuan didn't want to lay a hand on them.

Not long after Mo Yuan and Lazuli departed, Bulma returned, piloting her aircraft.

As soon as Bulma entered the house, she saw her mother looking visibly shaken.

"Mom, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

"Two people came looking for you just now. They wanted to borrow the Gravity Chamber..."

"The Gravity Chamber? Who were they? Did you give it to them?"

"I don't know who they were, but the girl had the Red Ribbon Army logo on her clothes... so I just gave them the Gravity Chamber that Vegeta always uses."

"What? The Red Ribbon Army? Could it be the Androids? Did they cause any trouble? Are you hurt?"

Hearing "Red Ribbon Army," Bulma's heart skipped a beat.

She had received word from Krillin.

Vegeta, Trunks from the future, Piccolo, and Tien Shinhan—even with all of them fighting together, they couldn't defeat the Androids.

If those two started acting up, the robot security guards at her house wouldn't stand a chance against them.

They'd likely be smashed into scrap metal in an instant.

"It's fine, it's fine. They left as soon as they took the Gravity Chamber."

Mrs. Brief began to comfort Bulma instead.

Mrs. Brief had been worried they might harm Bulma, so she had handed over the Gravity Chamber quickly to avoid any confrontation.

Otherwise, given how adorable Mo Yuan looked, Mrs. Brief would have insisted on them staying for a meal.

"That's a relief..."

Hearing that her home was safe, Bulma finally calmed down.

No, I have to tell Krillin and the others immediately.

The only purpose of the Gravity Chamber was for training. The Androids were already terrifyingly strong, yet they were still training so hard.

While Bulma was contacting Krillin, Mo Yuan and Lazuli had already arrived near Korin Tower.

At this moment, the only one at the Lookout was Mr. Popo, who was as black as a lump of coal.

As for Piccolo?

After merging with Kami, he had left the Lookout to hunt down the monster that was devouring humans everywhere.

Mr. Popo, who was still secretly grieving over Kami's departure, was thrown into a panic the moment he saw Mo Yuan and Lazuli.

In his past life, many people had speculated that Mr. Popo was a hidden final boss.

Mo Yuan had once shared that theory.

But looking at the "pale with fright" lump of coal before him, Mo Yuan completely abandoned that fantasy.

Still, as a model citizen (child), Mo Yuan greeted Mr. Popo very politely.

"Mr. Popo, hello. We would like to borrow the Hyperbolic Time Chamber."

Having stayed by Kami's side, Mr. Popo naturally knew who Mo Yuan and Lazuli were.

After all, he and Kami had been "peeping" from the Lookout the whole time.

They had seen everything that happened below very clearly.

However, their combat power was simply too low.

Even if they wanted to help, they were powerless to do so.

Faced with Mo Yuan's request, Mr. Popo naturally refused.

He rejected their request very firmly.

After being refused, Lazuli silently rolled up her sleeves...

Following a brief, "friendly" exchange, Mr. Popo was finally convinced.

He prostrated himself on the ground, respectfully seeing them off as they entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Of course, Lazuli hadn't used excessive force.

It was just that Mr. Popo would likely be unconscious for quite some time.
