At this moment.
Tarble, who was finally no longer five feet tall, was in a very good mood, a faint smile hanging on his lips.
Hearing Son Goku's words, he teased, "Son Goku, you could also make a wish to make yourself a little taller."
Upon hearing this, Son Goku shook his head in refusal without a second thought.
"I wouldn't make such a boring wish to Shenron."
Hearing this, Tarble's face stiffened, his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he gritted his back teeth.
Boring?
This wish was boring?
How many people wanted to realize such a wish but couldn't, forced to put lifts in their shoes, and you're telling me it's boring?!
Just you wait!
Once we enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, you're going to have a rough time!
Thinking of this, a trace of a malicious sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, his eyes looking slightly playful.
Opposite him, Son Goku felt a sudden sense of unease in his heart upon seeing this.
In an instant, his smile vanished, his face grew solemn, and he placed a hand over his chest.
But the next second, the uneasy feeling disappeared.
For a moment, he was filled with confusion.
"What's going on?"
"I felt a bit uncomfortable in my heart just now, but now it's gone..."
"How strange!"
He furrowed his brows, thought about it, but couldn't figure it out.
He tossed it to the back of his mind, his face once again brimming with excitement and anticipation.
"Tarble, the wishes have been granted, shall we head back?"
"You have to teach me properly how to transform into a Super Saiyan 4!"
Hearing this, Tarble gave him a meaningful look and replied with a double entendre, smiling cheerfully, "No problem."
"I will definitely teach you with great care; I guarantee you'll learn it!"
Son Goku, who only understood the literal meaning, immediately showed joy: "That's great!"
"Then let's go back!"
With that, he flashed to Tarble's side and grabbed his arm.
Judging by his stance, he was about to use Instant Transmission to return to Earth.
Seeing Son Goku wanting to slip away without even saying goodbye to anyone, Tarble was speechless, yet he hurriedly called out.
"Wait a second!"
"What is it?" Although Son Goku didn't understand why, he still stopped his movements. "Is there something else to do?"
Something else?
He had the nerve to ask!
Damn it, are you just going to use someone's things and be done with it?
Can't you thank them again and say a simple goodbye?
Use and discard, truly the Scum Rott!
Pah!
Tarble glared at him; expecting him to understand etiquette was faster than just finding a block of tofu to smash his head against.
Better to do it himself.
Immediately, he turned to face Mulin and the others, bowed slightly, and thanked them sincerely: "Many thanks to Grand Elder Mulin for helping us grant our wishes; we won't disturb you any further!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Son Goku, who was still clutching him tightly, and said speechlessly: "I have to teach this guy a new transformation; look at him, he can't wait."
Son Goku couldn't hear the sarcasm at all, and after hearing this, he nodded earnestly: "Yeah, Tarble is right, he's going to teach us an even more powerful transformation."
"If there's nothing else, we'll be heading back, Elder Mulin?"
"Oh, oh!" Mulin immediately snapped back to reality. Since even Son Goku said so, he believed it without hesitation. "Well, you two are welcome to visit often when you have time; we would be very happy to have you."
Hearing this, Tarble didn't care if it was just polite talk and agreed like a flash of lightning: "Then goodbye, Grand Elder Mulin. When we have time, we will also bring Dende back here."
"Everyone, until we meet again!"
Since he could bask in Son Goku's reflected glory, he might as well take advantage of it.
Besides, he was already thinking about making another wish next time!
Without giving them another chance to speak, he immediately called out to a somewhat dazed Son Goku, "Goku, let's go!"
"Huh? Oh, we're leaving now!"
"Everyone, see you next time~"
As Son Goku was about to leave, he was quite considerate and said goodbye.
His voice still echoed in the air.
Whoosh!
Tarble and Son Goku instantly vanished from their spot.
Looking at the place where they disappeared, Mulin's lips curved into a smile, and he then called out to his people, "Everyone, put the Dragon Balls away and go about your business."
"Yes, Grand Elder!" xN
A crowd of Namekians dispersed in response.
"Grand Elder, that Saiyan named 'Tarble,' his aura is even more terrifying than Son Goku's."
"Yes, Grand Elder, why did you still make an agreement with him? Aren't you afraid..."
The two speaking were currently the strongest two combat-type Namekians, usually responsible for protecting the Grand Elder Mulin.
Of course, they also took turns to train.
Before the last person could finish, Mulin interrupted him.
"Pena, you also felt the aura on Mr. Tarble."
"There isn't a trace of evil energy on him; he must not be an evil person. I believe in my judgment."
"Moreover, he is so powerful. Using a few wishes to befriend him is a good thing."
"If we encounter any difficult problems in the future and seek his help, he will do his best to assist us."
The two guards looked at each other speechlessly.
They felt that instead of pinning their hopes on others, it was better to hold them in their own hands.
Mulin paid no mind to what they were thinking. His deep gaze swept into the distance, and he admonished them, "From now on, do not disrespect Mr. Tarble, understand?"
"Yes, Grand Elder." x2
Tarble and Son Goku were unaware of what happened later on New Namek.
At this moment, they had returned to Earth and gone directly to Kami's Lookout.
This was because Vegeta and Licks had already been waiting at Kami's Lookout for some time.
"Kakarot, why did you take so long?" Vegeta asked with a stern face.
Seeing that Tarble had suddenly grown taller, he couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
According to his prediction, making a wish should have been more than enough time within 10 minutes.
Yet, half an hour had already passed.
This forced him, Licks, Son Gohan, Trunks, and Son Goten to rush to purchase a large amount of food.
But after buying food and other daily necessities and returning to the villa, they waited for several minutes and still didn't see them return, so they decided to wait at Kami's Lookout first.
However, upon arriving at Kami's Lookout, they waited for nearly ten more minutes before seeing them return.
All in all, waiting idly for more than ten minutes like this would make anyone angry, wouldn't it?
Son Gohan and the others left after waiting for five minutes and not seeing anyone.
The only person Vegeta could think of who might be slow was Son Goku.
Because usually, when Bulma hosted a gathering, Son Goku was always the last to arrive.
Facing Vegeta's accusation, Son Goku immediately shifted the blame to Tarble.
"I wanted to come back quickly too, but Tarble talked with Mulin and the others for a while longer!"
Upon hearing this, Vegeta immediately fell silent.
As for Tarble, he couldn't be bothered to deal with Son Goku. He looked at Dende and Mr. Popo beside him.
"Dende, Mr. Popo, we've come to bother you again."
As soon as he spoke, he saw that Mr. Popo, who had been expressionless, showed a clear smile in his eyes and nodded in acknowledgment.
He especially looked Tarble up and down.
Dende smiled and said, "It's okay, you can come anytime you want."
Of course, he also looked at Tarble's height, which was different from before, and glanced at him a few more times.
