Looking into Son Gohan's confident eyes, Marcarita smiled slightly and said, "It seems you've already made your decision. In that case, I won't say anything more about it."
"Then, let's talk about your transformation."
Son Gohan's heart tightened at her words. He cupped his fists and said, "Please, I'm listening."
"This transformation of yours, called Super Saiyan, isn't a particularly perfect transformation," Marcarita said.
So that was it. Son Gohan did not argue, because Old Kai had also said in the original story that Super Saiyan was merely an unorthodox path.
Seeing Son Gohan's expression, Marcarita understood something. She then asked, "Since you already know the flaws of this transformation but still insist on using it, does that mean it still has room to continue developing?"
Son Gohan nodded and answered, "This transformation isn't the limit. There are even more powerful forms that can be used. And to be honest, this transformation can even advance to godhood."
At those words, Marcarita's expression changed for an instant before quickly returning to normal. She asked, "Advance to godhood? Son Gohan, do you understand the concept of a god?"
Son Gohan shook his head. "I don't, but I can say for certain that this transformation can one hundred percent advance to god-level power."
After falling silent for two seconds, Marcarita said, "Since you already have a complete path of your own, you no longer need my guidance for your future growth. Work hard and become stronger. As you are now, you're still far too weak to be of any help to me."
As she spoke, light flickered in Marcarita's hand. With a flick of her wrist, the light shot toward Son Gohan.
Without resisting, Son Gohan watched the light fall onto his finger before condensing into an ancient-looking silver ring on his ring
