Janemba

"What's going on? How did Kid Buu show up at this point in time?"

Gamos was practically losing his mind. This completely went against the story. What had changed? Was it him? But he didn't think he'd interfered with Majin Buu's storyline at all!

Kid Buu kicked Fat Buu flying, then turned to look at Sun Wukong and Vegeta. But when he saw Gamos, a puzzled look appeared in his eyes.

Gamos clearly caught the brief flash of confusion in the other man's eyes.

He doesn't seem surprised to see Sun Wukong and Vegeta. He's confused about me instead. He knows I don't belong here, so he probably knows the entire Dragon Ball story.

At this point, Gamos was almost certain of the other man's identity. He was a fellow transmigrator, just like him.

After his brief moment of confusion, Kid Buu immediately became wary. Someone who wasn't supposed to be here had appeared. Could he be a transmigrator too?

At that very moment, they both guessed each other's identity and grew even more wary. As fellow transmigrators, they were naturally rivals. Until they knew what the other was capable of, it was best not to act rashly.

Kid Buu glanced at Fat Buu, who had been knocked away, then prepared to leave and get out of this mess.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Vegeta rushed forward first and blocked his path.

"Out of my way!"

Vegeta looked at him arrogantly and spoke with disdain.

"You little brat. You'd better behave and do as I say. Tell me, who are you?"

Kid Buu turned his gaze to Gamos and spoke.

"Is that what you want too?"

As a fellow countryman, Gamos didn't want to become his enemy. Among the hordes of transmigrators, he was just a low-level soul transmigrator. What if the other guy had a system? What if he had some old master guiding him? Wouldn't Gamos be at a disadvantage?

So Gamos spoke politely.

"Meeting like this must be fate. It'd be rude to leave without getting to know each other."

His words were tactful, yet carried an unmistakable firmness. He made it clear he didn't want to fight, but he wasn't going to let the other man leave so easily either.

Understanding what Gamos meant, Kid Buu folded his arms across his chest and said,

"My name is Zhang Xuan. I'm the future ruler of this world."

Just as they were about to continue negotiating, the ground suddenly trembled. The whole planet was plunged into a new upheaval.

"What's happening now?"

This Earth really did have one disaster after another. Sun Wukong and Vegeta were speechless.

At the same time, people who had already died began appearing out of thin air in various places around the planet.

Those who should have been in Other World had somehow passed through the barrier between life and death and arrived in the Living World. And since they didn't have halos above their heads, didn't that mean they'd been revived?

"What's going on? Did someone wish for everyone here to be brought back to life?"

"No, Kakarot, look over there."

Sun Wukong looked in the direction Vegeta was pointing and immediately saw millions of ancient soldiers. They definitely weren't modern people.

Recognizing the familiar scene, Kid Buu and Gamos exchanged a glance and immediately understood what was happening.

This was the plot of the movie: Janemba.

Kid Buu giggled. Sensing the energy coming from Other World, he immediately used Instant Transmission and vanished on the spot.

"What's going on?"

Gamos immediately created an energy barrier that enclosed the entire laboratory.

"Something must have happened in this timeline's Other World. Sun Wukong, Vegeta, you two can go check it out. While you're at it, bring Piccolo, who's already dead, back with you. If the dead are revived as soon as they arrive in the Living World, Piccolo should be able to come back too. That way, the Dragon Balls will be restored as well."

The two immediately understood what Gamos meant. They used Instant Transmission and headed into Other World.

Seeing all the chaos, Gamos didn't linger. He turned and headed for the laboratory.

There was still a Cell in the lab that hadn't been fully studied.

Upon arriving in Other World, Sun Wukong and Vegeta immediately began searching for Piccolo's ki.

"He should be in Heaven. I'll go look there."

"Then I'll go to Hell."

After splitting up, Sun Wukong flew toward Heaven, while Vegeta headed for Hell.

Meanwhile, in the administrative zone that belonged to neither Heaven nor Hell, the entire area was filled with candy. A huge, fat yellow figure sat on the roof, and on the other side sat another fat figure, this one blue.

The two fat figures laughed loudly, occasionally bouncing up and down on the roof together.

In the original story, the machine that purified evil exploded because its storage tank for the evil energy hadn't been replaced in time. One little ogre absorbed the evil energy and turned into Janemba.

But this time, when the machine exploded, another little ogre—his friend—absorbed the evil energy along with him. He turned into a blue fat figure.

Future Son Goku used Instant Transmission to arrive there and immediately spotted the two fat figures.

"Hey! Were you the ones who trapped King Yemma in that barrier?"

Hearing Future Son Goku's voice, the two fat figures stopped playing and looked at him curiously.

They exchanged a glance, then grinned and attacked together, firing an energy blast at Sun Wukong.

Future Son Goku crossed his arms in front of him. The Ki Blast struck him and kicked up a cloud of smoke.

"Janemba! Janemba!"

The two fat figures clapped and cheered, chanting Janemba's name.

Meanwhile, Gamos used telepathy to tell the two where Piccolo was. Sun Wukong and Vegeta immediately found him. Before he could react, they whisked him back to the Living World without a word.

In a flash, Piccolo found himself staring around in confusion. This place looked like Earth.

"What's going on?"

After Piccolo returned to Earth, the halo above his head quickly vanished. With life and death thrown out of balance, he had arrived in the Living World and was naturally revived.

"Great, Piccolo, you're back! That means the Dragon Balls are back too."

Vegeta told Piccolo to go find Gamos, then he and Sun Wukong returned to Other World.

"Piccolo!"

"You know me?"

Piccolo pointed at himself and asked in confusion.

"Yeah. There's no time to explain. Here's the Dragon Radar. Collect the Dragon Balls, then meet me at the Lookout."

Piccolo knew the situation was urgent. He didn't waste time and set off immediately.

Earth was already in complete chaos. Ancient people, modern people, Earthlings, aliens—almost every creature that had died on Earth had been revived.

Some were still in the afterlife and hadn't come out yet. Anyone who arrived in the Living World was revived, then started fighting over territory. Some began causing destruction.

At the Lookout, Kami, who had returned from the dead, watched the chaotic cities below. His eyes were filled with sorrow.

"Lord Kami, you're back!"

Mr. Popo ran out of the house, his face full of excitement, and looked at the familiar figure in delight.

Kami turned around. "It's been a long time, Mr. Popo."
