"We're in trouble!"
Seeing his opponent disappear, Gamos felt a wave of despair.
Dark Son Goku really could adapt to his body through battle and grow stronger.
But the injuries to his body were just as real. If he faced an attack beyond what he could withstand, he would get hurt.
Gamos remembered watching the anime and noticing that Future Dark Son Goku had traveled to the past and fought the protagonist, Sun Wukong, before returning to the future to recover from his injuries.
After he healed, his strength had increased astonishingly.
In their fight just now, Gamos had transformed into a Great Ape and caught his opponent off guard with his terrifying strength. Dark Son Goku had already been badly injured, and even his powerful body couldn't withstand the Great Ape's fierce attacks.
If Gamos couldn't kill him now, then once he recovered, he might transform into Rose Form, a form on par with Super Saiyan Blue.
At that point, unless the God of Devastation intervened personally, this world would be doomed.
But would the God of Devastation help them? The answer was no. Everyone in this world was irresponsible and negligent, one worse than the next. They were nothing but a pack of troublemakers.
"Wait. If Instant Transmission is used to travel a long distance, he needs to use someone else's ki as a guide and teleport to their location."
"At this point in time, there's no one with powerful enough ki for him to use as a guide. That means he must have teleported a short distance!"
At this thought, the despair in Gamos's eyes sharpened. He suddenly sensed something amiss behind him, as if something had just flashed past.
Gamos quickly turned around and saw Dark Son Goku watching him with a wicked grin. He held a basketball-sized orb of light in one hand, aimed at his Artificial Moon.
"So that's it! You transformed after this thing appeared. That means without it, you'll return to normal in no time!"
Dark Son Goku burst into a wild laugh, then crushed the energy ball in his hand. With the Artificial Moon gone, Gamos immediately felt the power inside him fading.
"So what?"
The fur on Gamos's body was already beginning to shrink. Before his power disappeared, he charged at his opponent as fast as he could.
"Dragon Fist!"
Gamos swung his enormous fist. A dragon's head appeared, brimming with boundless power, followed by a massive dragon that let out a sky-shaking roar and lunged at his opponent with tremendous force.
This time, Gamos put everything he had into the attack. He moved at top speed, and the Dragon Fist reached its full power.
Gamos had never felt so exhilarated. This was the Great Ape form, after all—it was in a league of its own compared to his normal state.
Dark Son Goku stared at the scene in horror. He had truly underestimated his opponent. He had planned for everything except the possibility that Gamos could move so fast.
This time, he had overestimated his own strength and underestimated the power of the Great Ape form. He didn't even have time to use Instant Transmission before the enormous dragon's head pierced through his chest.
"Damn humans! You lowly insects, don't get cocky. Soon, more powerful ones will descend upon this world. You'll all die!"
"I thought coming here would be a simple errand, but I never expected to stumble. If that's how it is, then let this timeline be the beginning!"
After delivering his final words, Dark Son Goku fell to the ground, still unwilling to accept defeat.
At the same time, Gamos's body rapidly shrank until he was once again a little radish-headed child, barely over a meter tall.
Unlike before, Gamos was now completely naked. His clothes had been blown apart when he transformed, leaving him with nothing to wear.
"Good thing there's no one around!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a flash of white light surrounded Gamos, and the scene around him changed in an instant.
Meanwhile, Shenron finished granting the wish on Earth. After three seconds, he finally said the words everyone had been waiting to hear.
"Your wish has been granted. Farewell!"
Shenron turned into a ray of light and flew into the seven Dragon Balls. Then the Dragon Balls shot into the sky and flew off in seven different directions.
At the same time, a flash of light appeared in Bulma's house, and a group of bewildered Namekians suddenly materialized.
Sun Wukong, whose injuries had just been healed, appeared there too. His son, Son Gohan, and his family's housekeeper, Piccolo, were beside him.
Not many Namekians had been transported this time, because only a few were left. The rest were already lying dead on the ground.
While everyone was still talking among themselves, Son Gohan suddenly cried out.
"Dad, Dad, look over there!"
Sun Wukong and Piccolo followed the direction Son Gohan was pointing. The next moment, both of them stared wide-eyed.
"Vegeta!"
They weren't shocked just because they had seen Vegeta, or because they had found his corpse. They were shocked because there were two corpses of Vegeta.
Two identical bodies lay there motionless. One wore a Battle Suit from the Frieza Force, while the other was dressed all in black.
Everyone could sense that the aura lingering on the corpse of the black-clad Vegeta was incredibly powerful.
"What in the world is going on?"
Everyone was confused. Just then, Piccolo was horrified to realize that this Black-Clad Vegeta seemed older. He didn't know what had happened, but he was certain there had to be an unbreakable connection between the two.
Another flash of white light appeared, and yet another corpse dressed in black materialized out of thin air.
"T-that's... Old Son!"
Sun Wukong stared at his own corpse in shock, feeling a strange pang of sadness. Was he dead?
And just like the Black-Clad Vegeta, this corpse dressed in black had died with a hole through its chest.
Just then, another flash of white light appeared, and a naked little boy showed up. A tail grew from his backside. He was undoubtedly a Saiyan.
Gamos had just finished congratulating himself that no one was around, only to be teleported into the middle of a crowd. He looked around and saw everyone staring at him. He felt like the whole world had turned against him.
"Ah!"
With a shriek, Gamos's face turned red. He bolted toward the nearest house, not even bothering to open the door. He crashed through it with a bang and darted inside.
He hid in a corner, covered his face tightly with both hands, and shut down completely.
"It's over, it's over. I can never show my face again. Sob, my youth! It's been sullied just like that."
As Namekians had no gender, they stared in bewilderment at the house with its broken door, unable to understand why the boy had reacted that way.
"Old Son, is that a Saiyan?"
Sun Wukong looked grave. He had never imagined that the incredibly powerful Saiyan would come to Earth too.
The Guardian in the sky had witnessed it as well. He was the good half of King Piccolo.
By now, the Guardian's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He had never expected that, in the final moments, Gamos would kill Dark Son Goku outright. Dark Son Goku had also destroyed the Artificial Moon, which meant that both of them had met the conditions for teleportation and had ended up on Earth.
"I just hope this Saiyan doesn't have any bad intentions!"
The Guardian wiped the sweat from his brow. At this point, all he could do was accept it.
Meanwhile, Dr. Brief and his wife heard the commotion and came out of the house. They were greeted by the scene in the courtyard.
"Oh? So many aliens!"
They sounded surprised, but neither of them looked the least bit unsettled.
"Oh-ho-ho, Mr. Sun is here too. Then these must be Bulma's friends!"
Mrs. Brief was so easygoing that she showed no fear at all upon seeing the aliens.
Bulma, who had been squeezed into a corner, finally made her way out.
She had been on Namek, wondering when she would get home. She hadn't expected to be back the very next second. What could be more delightful than that?
"Goku!"
Seeing the reassuring figure, Bulma waved to him at once and ran over.
Sun Wukong was still focused on the two corpses on the ground, trying to figure out what to do with them.
"Goku, huh? Is that... Mr. Sun?"
Bulma hurried over and saw the three corpses on the ground too. She couldn't help but gasp.
There were two Vegetas and one Sun Wukong. The scene was downright bizarre.
"Yeah. I don't know what happened either. Another me and another Vegeta just appeared, but they were both killed by a mysterious little guy."
Just then, a frog tried to sneak away, but a large hand caught it.
Gamos, wrapped in a bedsheet, looked at the frog in his hand with an amused smile.
He had been hiding in a corner, but he wanted to see what was happening outside. Then he spotted the frog trying to escape.
The frog had two antennae on its head, making it fundamentally different from the frogs on Earth and easy to pick out.
Thinking of Captain Ginyu, who had turned into a frog in the story, Gamos wasn't about to let him go. He had grabbed him in one swift move.
"Goku, Gohan!"
Chi-Chi had heard the news and rushed over. As soon as she got out of the car, she threw herself into her husband's arms.
Sun Wukong looked at his tearful wife and felt a little overwhelmed. He really didn't know how to comfort people.
All in all, the trip to Namek had ended well enough.
Sure, many Namekians had died, and even the Grand Elder, who was linked to the Dragon Balls, had passed away. But it didn't matter. Earth's Dragon Balls had been restored, and they could bring the Grand Elder back after a year.
The Grand Elder had still had a little life left in him before he died. So, after he was revived, as long as the bond with the Dragon Balls was transferred to the next Grand Elder in time, the Dragon Balls wouldn't disappear.
Looking at this happy ending, Gamos suddenly thought of something, and his heart leaped back into his throat.
"Wait, everything here is different from the story. Two Dark Ones—that's already gone beyond the limits of the plot. Did Dark Son Goku mean that more Dark Ones would come here in the future?"
At the thought, Gamos felt like the whole world had turned against him.
