"No need, King Kai. I just need to borrow your training ground." Sun Wukong waved his hand and laughed.

King Kai: "..."

Could you stop acting like we're old friends?

King Kai immediately lost his temper.

This kid had only come here to borrow his training ground?

Then he'd like to see what the brat could accomplish if he didn't teach him a thing.

"First, I'll start by getting used to this planet's gravity!" Sun Wukong said, then immediately turned to look at the black chimpanzee, Bubbles.

Bubbles: "????"

Bubbles looked utterly confused.

Wait... why are you looking at me?

"Bubbles, I'm going to catch you! Are you ready?" Sun Wukong grinned and rubbed his hands together.

Bubbles was even more bewildered.

You want to get used to the planet's gravity, so why are you trying to catch me?

"Whoosh!"

Sun Wukong charged straight toward Bubbles.

Bubbles: "..."

You're really doing this?

Bubbles immediately turned and bolted.

Who the heck was this guy?

Had he gotten something mixed up?

King Kai: "..."

Why was this kid so weird?

What was he doing?

And he was from Earth, right?

As I recall, the gravity here is ten times stronger than Earth's.

How could this kid run so fast under ten times Earth's gravity?

Sun Wukong chased Bubbles around the planet twice, and he could feel his body adapting more and more.

Yeah, that should do it!

This body was weak, but it seemed to adapt pretty quickly.

Had he almost gotten used to ten times the gravity already?

"Hey, Bubbles, I'm going to speed up now, so watch out!" Sun Wukong grinned and shouted to Bubbles up ahead.

Bubbles suddenly looked back at Sun Wukong, pulled a face, and even slapped his own backside before turning and running faster.

"Whoosh!"

Sun Wukong suddenly accelerated, appearing behind Bubbles in an instant. He grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up.

"Haha, I got you!" Sun Wukong laughed, looking delighted.

Bubbles: "..."

King Kai: "..."

King Kai's eyes widened in astonishment.

Was this for real?

Had this kid already adapted to gravity ten times stronger than Earth's?

Sun Wukong took a deep breath, his expression growing more serious.

Next up was the Kaioken, right?

"Kid, you have a lot of potential! I can't believe you got used to gravity ten times stronger than Earth's in such a short time." King Kai praised him, then asked, "But I don't understand. Did you come here just to train, or do you have another reason?"

"If I remember right, Vegeta will be coming to Earth before long." Sun Wukong smiled as he answered and stretched his arms and legs.

"Vegeta?" King Kai's expression changed slightly, and he looked shocked. "You mean the Saiyan prince, Vegeta?"

"That's right, him." Sun Wukong smiled.

"He's the most talented warrior among the Saiyans... How did you get on his bad side?" King Kai wiped the sweat from his brow. "You should know he was named after Planet Vegeta! That guy's not to be trifled with!"

"Haha, yeah." Sun Wukong laughed it off, then added, "King Kai, could you check for me? I remember he'll reach Earth in a little over five months."

King Kai: "..."

"You even know that?" King Kai asked in surprise. The two black antennae on his head twitched slightly as he looked toward the distant stars.

After checking, King Kai seemed somewhat astonished.

"You're pretty close. He and his companion will reach Earth in 158 days," he said after a moment's thought.

"Good, I got it." Sun Wukong nodded firmly.

The Evil Dragon had been born because the Dragon Balls had been used too many times, resulting in negative energy building up.

Now that I've been reborn, Piccolo and Tien Shinhan won't have to die this time.

I have to get back to Earth as soon as possible and defeat Vegeta first.

And when it comes to Namek... I'd better make sure Vegeta doesn't die, either.

In short, in this life, I should use the Dragon Balls as little as possible.

I also have to train hard and try to surpass Super Saiyan 4 as soon as I can, reaching an even higher level.

Then, even if the Evil Dragon is born, I'll be able to defeat him.

"But you made the right choice. Even though you only have 158 days, training on this planet is equivalent to training for several hundred years on Earth, or even several thousand," King Kai said with a smile.

Sun Wukong laughed and scratched his head.

"To be honest, those two Saiyans—especially Vegeta—are even stronger than me." King Kai clasped his hands behind his back, his voice low.

"Yeah." Sun Wukong nodded in agreement.

King Kai: "..."

King Kai was at a loss for words.

You really don't know how to talk, kid.

"The fact that you got used to Earth's gravity being ten times stronger so quickly means you have a lot of talent... Next, all you have to do is tell me a joke that makes me laugh, and I'll teach you..." King Kai was just about to say "Kaioken."

"Kaioken!"

A burst of crimson flames suddenly flared around Sun Wukong.

King Kai's eyes went wide, nearly popping out of their sockets.

Were you kidding me?

How did you learn the Kaioken?

Could it be... that the Supreme Kai had taught him?

Did the Supreme Kai even know the Kaioken?

"Tenfold!" Sun Wukong took a deep breath and unleashed the tenfold Kaioken.

King Kai: "..."

King Kai's eyes popped out of their sockets and shattered his glasses.

Y-you... You're a monster, aren't you?

You've got to be kidding!

"Thud!"

The moment Sun Wukong unleashed the tenfold Kaioken, the strain forced him to the ground. He panted heavily.

"This isn't working... Slow and steady, right?" Sun Wukong let the pressure of the Kaioken fade, scratched his head, and got back to his feet.

King Kai was too shocked to speak.

This kid was definitely a monster.

Learning the Kaioken was one thing.

But he'd gone straight to the tenfold Kaioken!

Who did that?

"I'm hungry... I must've gone half a year without eating. King Kai, could you get me something to eat?" Sun Wukong rubbed his stomach and grinned at King Kai.

"Sure... I never thought the dead could get hungry, too..." King Kai's mouth twitched as he went to fix something in the kitchen.

Before long, King Kai brought Sun Wukong a plate of food and gave Bubbles a banana as well.

Sun Wukong dug into the food, enjoying every bite as he filled his stomach.

"Can't you eat a little more politely?" King Kai said, his face darkening.

"Hahaha, it's been a long time since I ate your cooking." Sun Wukong laughed.

"What are you talking about...? You're acting like you know me or something." King Kai rolled his eyes at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong smiled and didn't reply.

"But speaking of which, how did you die?" King Kai asked curiously.

If you can even use the tenfold Kaioken, who on earth managed to kill you?
