The Decision! Preparations Before Heading to a Parallel World!

"Ding! In response to the host, the target is Broly from a parallel world, not the host's current world."

Lin Chen was stunned by the system's answer.

Broly from a parallel world?

What the hell... Good thing he'd asked. Otherwise, how was he supposed to complete that choice?

Lin Chen knew that the Dragon Ball world was vast.

This world had the concept of multiple universes. In total, there were twelve universes.

The universe Lin Chen lived in was one of those twelve.

The relationship between the different universes was rather like that between different countries; they could be vastly different.

Take the Saiyans, for example. In Lin Chen's universe, the Saiyans had originally been a warlike, brutal race. But in another universe, they might be a group of peace-loving people. In a third universe, the Saiyan race might not exist at all.

On top of the multiverse, Lin Chen also knew that this world had the concept of parallel worlds.

A parallel world was a similar, yet different, world born within a universe for some reason.

Take Lin Chen, for example. He knew very well that the world he was in now had to be a parallel world within some universe.

His arrival had changed things in this world, allowing the Saiyans' home, Planet Vegeta, to escape destruction at Frieza's hands.

Besides this world, there should be another world that Lin Chen had never traveled to. There, because Lin Chen had never appeared, Planet Vegeta had been destroyed by Frieza, just as it had been in the original story.

And now, the system's mission was to send Lin Chen to a parallel world to fight another Broly.

The problem was, how was Lin Chen supposed to get to the parallel world the system wanted him to visit?

"System, how am I supposed to complete Choice Three? Will you send me to that parallel world?"

"Ding! In response to the host, you must find a way to complete the mission yourself. However, the system can tell you that a way to reach the target world exists in this universe."

"System, then I choose Choice Three!"

After thinking it over, Lin Chen still couldn't resist his curiosity and chose the option that seemed hardest to pull off.

After all, the Frost Demon Serum offered by Choices One and Two wouldn't be much help to Lin Chen, whose subordinates were still mostly Saiyans.

But he did want to find out what that legendary Super Saiyan 2 transformation experience card was all about!

"Ding! The host has made a choice. Please complete the mission as soon as possible! As this mission is particularly difficult, the time limit has been extended to three years!"

With his new goal confirmed, Lin Chen gave King Vegeta and the others new orders. Starting today, the Saiyans would begin attacking the Frieza Force's former territories and liberating the planets Frieza had once ruled.

There wouldn't be any system rewards for doing this, but attacking the Frieza Force's territories would at least give the Saiyans some combat experience.

Hanasia's lesson had proven that great strength alone wasn't always enough. Five years of peace had made many Saiyans forget the harshness of battle.

As the Saiyan forces launched attacks across the galaxy, Lin Chen returned to Earth.

The time limit for this system mission was three years, so Lin Chen decided to revive Hanasia and the others first.

As soon as he got back to Earth, Lin Chen went to Kame House.

When he returned, he saw Master Roshi teaching Tights and Bulma martial arts.

"Master Roshi! Tights! Bulma!"

Lin Chen greeted them, then had another affectionate moment with Tights before getting straight to the point.

"You want this ball of mine? I've studied it for years and still have no idea what it is."

Master Roshi looked puzzled as he raised the Dragon Ball hanging around his neck.

"That's right. It's called a Dragon Ball. There are seven of them in all, and if you gather them together, they'll grant you one wish."

"What? That's incredible!" Master Roshi exclaimed, but he still handed the Dragon Ball to Lin Chen.

"You're already so strong. You must have something urgent to take care of if you need this. You can have it."

"Thank you, Master Mutaito."

Lin Chen took the Dragon Ball, said goodbye to the three of them, then used Instant Transmission to leave.

After Lin Chen left, however, a glimmer flashed in Bulma's eyes.

"So the Shenron Lin Chen told me about really does exist?"

After taking Master Roshi's Dragon Ball, Lin Chen arrived at Mount Paozu the next moment.

Goku, who still lived alone in the mountains, was out hunting. Lin Chen silently apologized before taking his Four-Star Dragon Ball.

Next, he headed to the Lookout.

"Big Brother Lynx!"

The first to come out and greet Lin Chen was Broly, who had been living here for over a year.

He wore clothes much like Kami's, and he'd grown enough that Lin Chen could barely recognize him.

"Hey, Broly!"

Looking at Broly, who was like a completely different person from before and had such a kind expression, Lin Chen thought of the Broly he'd been tasked with fighting. He couldn't help thinking how amazing he was—he'd even managed to turn Broly into someone like this.

"Broly, how are things here?"

"Great. I'm really grateful that Big Brother Lynx brought me here. I get to learn all kinds of new things from Mr. Popo and Kami every day!" Broly replied.

Lin Chen smiled, then looked up at Kami, who was walking over.

After greeting him, Lin Chen explained why he'd come. "Kami, I'm hoping you can help me find the remaining Dragon Balls. I have two already."

Lin Chen took out the two Dragon Balls he'd collected.

Kami glanced at them, then said, "Mr. Lin Chen, I believe I told you before that I..."

"You don't know where the Dragon Balls are, right?"

Lin Chen cut Kami off. "Help me this time, and I can take you to see your homeworld."

"Namek?"

Kami's eyes widened.

When Lin Chen had brought Broly here last time, Kami had learned that he was an alien from another planet.

As an orphan from another world, he'd always wanted to return to his home and see it.

But Kami quickly furrowed his brow and shook his head. "No, I'm Earth's Kami. I can't leave the Lookout for too long."

Lin Chen immediately replied, "Don't worry. We won't be gone long. I can use Instant Transmission, so getting you to Namek will take only a moment."

At that, Kami was finally tempted.

If it was only a few hours, then it shouldn't be a problem.

So, longing to return home, Kami stopped brushing Lin Chen off and immediately told Mr. Popo to gather all the remaining Dragon Balls.
