At the same time as Son Gohan was training, outside Kami's Lookout.
Piccolo sat cross-legged on the ground with a grave expression, eyes closed in meditation, while Son Goku exercised off to the side, swinging his fists and feet.
Nearly seventeen hours had passed since Son Gohan entered the room, which surprised Son Goku greatly. He had not expected his son to be able to hold out for so long.
When he had gone to find Piccolo earlier, the two of them had almost started fighting on the spot. Only after Son Goku persuaded him did Piccolo follow him to Kami's Lookout.
After all, how could a training maniac like Piccolo possibly miss out on a place as wondrous as the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?
Right now, the only goal in his heart was to defeat Son Goku, and since he currently did not have absolute confidence, then he had to enter the place before him.
Just then, there came a click, and the door was pushed open from the inside.
In that instant, Son Goku and Piccolo both cast their gazes toward the doorway. Very soon, they saw a figure step out from the vast white space beyond the door.
"Gohan!" Son Goku sensed a very familiar ki.
"Father!" Gohan answered, but his voice was no longer the childish one from before.
The moment he saw Son Gohan, Son Goku was stunned.
By the time, seven or eight months should have passed inside at most, yet the Son Gohan before him looked as if he had not been seen for several years.
His height of one meter thirty had completely surpassed the normal range for a four-year-old child. His bare upper body was muscular and clearly defined, and although his aura was not powerful, it was extremely condensed.
Off to the side, Piccolo opened his eyes and looked at Son Gohan in some surprise, because he simply could not see through this seemingly small child before him.
Kami suddenly appeared in the middle of the area with instant movement, and the moment he showed himself, his eyes locked firmly onto Son Gohan.
"Are you confident?" Kami suddenly asked.
"Yes," Son Gohan answered with great confidence.
Having obtained the answer he wanted, a chrysanthemum-like smile finally appeared on Kami's face. Then he looked at Son Goku and Piccolo and said, "You two may go in. Gohan, come with me."
After saying that, he paid no further attention to the other two, instead placing his hand on Son Gohan's shoulder. With a thought, the two of them vanished from the spot.
Piccolo turned to look at Son Goku, gave a cold snort, and strode ahead directly. Son Goku helplessly shrugged and followed after him.
The two entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber one after another, and then Mr. Popo closed the door.
On the broad platform of Kami's Lookout, Kami and Son Gohan suddenly appeared.
"Show me your power. I want to know how much stronger you've become," Kami said, releasing his hand and walking aside.
Son Gohan did not refuse. Instead, with a low shout, he drove the ki within his body out.
Whoosh!
A white aura visible to the naked eye suddenly surged from the surface of Son Gohan's body, then formed a faint white blaze of energy around him.
The originally calm air currents around them were also stirred up by this sudden burst of power, making Kami's robes flap loudly.
Feeling the powerful aura coming from Son Gohan, the smile on Kami's face grew wider and wider.
The stronger Earth's guardian was, the happier he, as Earth's Kami, would be.
Son Gohan withdrew the aura he had displayed at the right moment. As for his current control over ki, he was confident that no one on Earth could surpass him except Master Roshi.
"Do you have any plans next?" Kami walked forward, and a set of clothes suddenly appeared in his hands, which he handed to Son Gohan as he asked.
"Yes, but I need your help," Son Gohan said, taking the clothes and beginning to put them on.
As for the style of the clothes, Son Gohan actually did not care much. Whether it was a Turtle School martial arts uniform or Piccolo Style battle clothes, they would definitely be gone once a real fight started anyway.
"Tell me. I'll see if I can help," Kami asked very readily.
"Do you still remember the place where you first came to Earth?" Son Gohan asked after putting on the clothes.
"I still vaguely remember. Why?" Kami asked.
"I need the spaceship you rode when you came to Earth. I want to use it to make some preparations in advance," Son Gohan answered truthfully.
After pondering slightly for a moment, Kami said, "I know that even if I don't tell you, you know where it is. All right, I'll take you there."
"Thank you," Son Gohan said in thanks.
Kami was right. Son Gohan, who knew the plot well, indeed knew where that spaceship was, but in order to save time, it would still be faster to make use of Kami's instant movement.
Kami came to the edge of Kami's Lookout and quickly scanned left and right with his gaze before soon locking onto a direction.
Son Gohan had already come to his side, and then the two of them vanished from the spot in an instant.
In Earth's Yunzabit region, air currents swept up sand all across the sky. Although there was still vegetation, the surrounding temperature was less than ten degrees.
A spaceship, oval-shaped overall and bearing four enormous protruding pointed horns, lay quietly here. Because it had been left there for so long, a thick layer of moss had even grown over its surface.
The next second, two figures abruptly appeared in front of the spaceship. They were none other than Kami and Son Gohan.
"This is the spaceship you were talking about, right?" Kami asked.
"That's right." Son Gohan nodded.
"Do you still need me to do anything?" Kami asked further.
"Can your instant movement bring this spaceship along?" Son Gohan turned his head and asked.
"The ship is too big. I can't help you with it, but it's actually very fast. On Earth, it wouldn't really be much slower than Instant Transmission," Kami said after shaking his head.
"I want to go to Central City. Can you take me there?" Son Gohan asked.
"Yes. I'll take you." Kami stepped forward and spoke in the Namekian language, and a round tray immediately descended from the bottom of the ship.
After they boarded the ship, the surroundings were basically no different from the anime.
Kami stepped forward, activated the controls in front of the large seat by voice, and quickly set the destination.
Bzz—
The entire ship suddenly let out a hum, then took off amid a sharp, low tremor.
A tremendous force of inertia suddenly pressed down on the two people inside the cabin, but Son Gohan felt nothing at all, while Kami, seated in the chair, could withstand it as well.
In the anime, it had taken less than ten seconds to travel from Earth to Jupiter, and moving around on Earth was even quicker!
In less than three seconds, the ship abruptly stabilized.
Through the transparent glass, they could see that the ship had already arrived above a huge city and was slowly descending.
Soon, the ship landed in a massive courtyard.
Beside the courtyard stood a semicircular building many times larger than the surrounding structures, and on the roof hung an extremely conspicuous sign.
"Capsule Corporation"
At that moment, a married couple had already come out of the building and walked over beside the ship, circling it as they examined it. The man's eyes shone with intense interest, while the woman with golden curls held his arm and looked on curiously.
Then a beautiful young woman with blue hair quickly walked out of the building.
