Gamos stepped forward and spoke.
"I want a pocket dimension. Inside it, create a planet the size of Earth, with all its continents and environments transformed to be suitable for growing Senzu Beans."
"I want this space bound to me, so I can enter it whenever I want."
This battle had given Gamos a deep understanding of the helplessness that came with being injured in a fight.
Especially those guys with systems. They probably all had an unlimited supply of Senzu Beans. If he ever faced them, he'd be as good as dead. He needed some means of protecting himself.
"I can open up an alternate dimension and create a ring that grants access to it, but I can't bind that access to your soul."
With Shenron's power, creating a planet wasn't difficult. After all, Earth had been destroyed several times in the original story, yet it always came back, didn't it?
The main issue was that Gamos had originally wanted a pocket dimension like the ones in fantasy novels, bound to his soul and under his absolute control.
But it seemed Shenron's power couldn't do that. At most, he could open up a space in the void and give Gamos a ring that would let him travel back and forth.
But if he left this universe, would he still be able to enter the space whenever he wanted? And if he used the Time Ring to travel to another timeline, could he still get in?
After thinking it over, he decided that the Dragon Balls on Earth had already managed quite a lot. He could look for the Super Dragon Balls another time!
"Then let's do it!"
Gamos accepted Shenron's offer, and Shenron immediately began channeling his power to grant the wish.
A space suddenly appeared in the void. Inside it was a planet much like Earth, filled with life energy.
"Your wish has been granted. Farewell!"
Shenron's body dissipated and returned to the Dragon Balls. The seven Dragon Balls then shot into the sky, turning into seven beams of light as they flew to different parts of the world.
"Gamos, are you planning to grow Senzu Beans?"
Bulma was clever enough to immediately guess what he had in mind.
"Yes. As far as I know, there aren't many Senzu Beans left, are there? The last time I went to Korin for some, he said there were fewer than ten left. That's nowhere near enough for the future."
Gamos really hated feeling like he had no control. Senzu Beans were essential for battle, and not having them in his own hands left him uneasy. Especially now that he knew there were other transmigrators with systems. His sense of danger had risen to a whole new level.
"That's great! We'll have more Senzu Beans than we could ever eat!"
Everyone was delighted, though they couldn't help regretting that they hadn't thought of it sooner.
"Then why didn't you just wish for a few million Senzu Beans?"
Someone asked. Gamos only gave a cold snort.
"No matter how many there are, we'd eventually use them all. Only if we can grow them ourselves will the supply truly be inexhaustible."
"It looks like our time is up. I should be going, too."
Champa stood and said his goodbyes. After seeing how powerful the Saiyans were, he planned to hurry back and find the Saiyans in his own universe, then train them properly.
These Saiyans who could transform were really interesting. Once he trained a few strong fighters, they might come in handy someday.
"Goodbye, everyone!"
Vados tapped her staff lightly on the ground. Then the two of them turned into a beam of light and flew off into the distance.
"Lord Champa, remember to come visit again!"
Sun Wukong shouted up at the sky.
After bidding Champa farewell, Gamos took his leave as well. Now that he had the space, he naturally needed to find Korin and learn how to grow Senzu Beans.
Before leaving, though, he cast a little spell on Ginyu. Ginyu could no longer say the word "change," and he couldn't hear it either. Then Gamos left the Ginyu who had become Launch in Master Roshi's care.
Looking at Ginyu, who looked exactly like her, Launch couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. She snatched him away.
After Gamos left, Sun Wukong looked eagerly at Launch. He really wanted to fight the fused Saiyan! But when he thought about how strong she was, he gave up and turned his gaze to the gloomy Vegeta.
"Vegeta, what did you think of that battle?"
"They're strong. All of them. They're far stronger than me. Even I found myself thinking they were impossible to beat. But I'm an Elite Warrior, the Saiyan Prince. I'll never give up. I'm not afraid even of my future self. I'll catch up to them as soon as I can, then surpass them."
Vegeta's eyes burned with longing for greater power.
"Then let's spar!"
Watching other people fight had left Sun Wukong itching for a battle. Launch couldn't control her power yet and might kill him. Krillin and Yamcha were too strong, and he'd been beaten by them so often that he was tired of it. Right now, he wanted a satisfying fight.
Seeing what Sun Wukong was thinking, Vegeta gave a wicked grin. He couldn't beat those monsters from the future yet, so he might as well use Kakarot to warm up.
The two of them transformed into Super Saiyans and immediately flew off, eventually reaching a forested mountain range.
"Kakarot, you became a Super Saiyan before I did, but we reached Super Saiyan 2 at the same time. When it comes to Super Saiyan 3, I, Vegeta, will overtake you. I'll transform before you do."
Vegeta powered up in an instant. His hair stood on end, lightning crackled around him, and his aura became terrifying. At his current strength, even if Perfect Cell appeared, Vegeta could slap him to death.
"Fine! Then I'll do it too. Hah!"
Sun Wukong wasn't about to be outdone. He transformed directly into Super Saiyan 2, and his aura clashed with Vegeta's.
As their power continued to rise, both of them reached the peak of Super Saiyan 2—the level of strength they had in the original Majin Buu Saga. They had both reached a bottleneck. They were only one step away from Super Saiyan 3, but they just couldn't take it.
The Vegeta-Goku Duo had progressed so quickly thanks to Krillin and Yamcha. They were using the future bodies of Sun Wukong and Vegeta, so there was plenty they could learn from. Compared to the original story, where they had to feel their way forward, the Vegeta-Goku Duo had it incredibly easy.
The templates were right there. Whenever they didn't understand something, they could take a look. They had no doubts to hold them back; they just had to focus on improving themselves. Seeing Krillin transform Sun Wukong's body into Super Saiyan 3 had spurred them on even more.
Just as Sun Wukong and Vegeta were about to fight, Gamos suddenly appeared.
"You two are too destructive. I'm going to put some limits on you!"
With that, Gamos cast the new spell he had learned. Sun Wukong and Vegeta suddenly felt their bodies grow heavy. The sudden change nearly sent them tumbling out of the sky, but they quickly steadied themselves.
"This is Gravity Magic. I've set your gravity to 1,500 times normal. Now you can have a proper fight! Bye!"
Once he'd done that, Gamos used Instant Transmission and vanished again.
Feeling the increased gravity, Sun Wukong clenched his fists. With this added weight, he could fight at full strength.
Vegeta was taken aback, too. He hadn't expected to increase the gravity without being in the gravity chamber. It seemed those spells weren't completely useless after all!
In the original story, Vegeta was a blockhead who only knew how to fight. He knew nothing else. If an enemy blew up the planet, even Vegeta with Ultra Ego would still die.
This Vegeta was just like the original: he only pursued strength and looked down on everything else. But Gamos had still forced Instant Transmission on him.
"With this, I can get used to high gravity at any time. It's like training nonstop. Those unimpressive spells really are useful!"
Vegeta had made up his mind. After this fight, he would learn some magic, too. Because of material limitations, the gravity chamber could only reach 500 times normal gravity, and it had long since stopped meeting his training needs. Once he learned to control gravity, he could push it past 10,000 times. Then, even in his base form, he could slap an ordinary Super Saiyan 2 to death.
Sun Wukong and Vegeta looked at each other, their eyes full of fighting spirit.
"Kakarot, today I'll show you what the Saiyan Prince is. I'm not someone a low-class warrior like you can match."
"Bring it on, Vegeta! I'm already getting excited."
Under the 1,500-times gravity, Vegeta charged forward. Sun Wukong wasn't about to back down and swung his fist to meet him.
Their fists collided, and terrifying energy erupted. Thanks to the increased gravity, the shock waves from their fight had much less impact on the surrounding area.
Vegeta threw a punch, but Sun Wukong caught it with one hand. Sun Wukong followed up with a punch of his own, and Vegeta caught that attack with his other hand.
"Is that all you've got, Kakarot?"
"I'm not going to lose to you!"
Sun Wukong slammed his forehead into Vegeta's. The usually arrogant Vegeta cried out in pain.
"You madman!"
Vegeta returned the headbutt, and this time Sun Wukong let out a pained howl.
They immediately leaped apart and rubbed their heads.
"Damn you, Kakarot! Take this!"
Vegeta used Instant Transmission to appear behind him. He clasped his hands together and slammed a heavy punch into Sun Wukong's back. Sun Wukong was driven straight into the ground, leaving a deep crater in the once-flat earth.
Vegeta then rapidly fired Ki Blasts with both hands, moving so fast that his arms blurred. The classic Prince Tactics had returned!
A huge cloud of dust billowed up, but Sun Wukong's aura hadn't weakened at all. It was the classic case of all smoke and no damage.
"That won't work, Vegeta!"
In the next instant, Sun Wukong gathered energy in his right hand and formed a hand blade, slicing through the Ki Blasts around him. He flew straight into the sky, then held the hand blade in front of him and shot toward Vegeta like a streak of light.
As his opponent closed in, Vegeta gathered all his ki into his right hand and slammed down a golden fist from above.
"Haah!"
Vegeta roared. If his full-power punch landed, he would surely deal his opponent a serious blow.
But just as Vegeta's fist was about to hit, he saw Sun Wukong's form turn strange. Then his fist passed straight through Sun Wukong's body.
"What?!"
Before Vegeta could react, Sun Wukong had appeared at his side. Vegeta quickly changed his move and swept a kick toward him.
But once again, Vegeta's attack missed. It was another afterimage. Then Vegeta felt a pain in his back, and he was sent flying.
