Teaching Son Goku and Krillin About Ki

"Hey, I'm Kashius, Son Goku's little brother. Nice to meet you!" Kashius smiled as he greeted Master Roshi and Krillin.

"Mm-hmm, what a polite child. I'm Master Roshi, Wukong's teacher, and this is also my disciple. His name is Krillin." Master Roshi pulled over Krillin, who still had not quite snapped back to his senses, and introduced him.

"Hey, nice to meet you, Krillin." Facing this future strongest Earthling, Kashius was filled with respect.

"Y-you... hello."

"W-w-wait... are you really Wukong's little brother?" After a pause, Krillin asked.

Though Kashius was surprised by the question, he still answered, "Yes, I really am Wukong's biological little brother. Look, see? We both have tails."

As Kashius spoke, he deliberately swished the tail wrapped around his waist to prove that he really was Son Goku's little brother.

"Now that you mention it, that's true. You both have tails?" Seeing Kashius's tail, Krillin believed it a little. But after looking at Son Goku, then at Kashius, he asked doubtfully, "Since y-you're Wukong's little brother, then... why are you taller than Wukong?"

Uh, little bald guy, you've really stumped me with that one. To be honest, even I don't know why I'm taller than Wukong.

Maybe it was because, over these past five years, he had eaten too many cakes made by a certain little girl.

The moment Wukong, standing nearby, heard Krillin's words, he immediately could not accept it. He really was Kashius's big brother, so why did they have to doubt it?

"How can you say that? I really am Kashius's big brother," Wukong said, aggrieved.

"Uh... Wukong, sorry, sorry, I didn't mean anything else. I was just curious why your little brother is taller than you, that's all. Don't take it to heart." Krillin hurriedly waved his hands and apologized, signaling for Wukong not to take it personally.

"Well, I don't know either. I still remember that five years ago, Kashius was only as tall as me. I don't know how he got taller than me so quickly."

Little Wukong scratched his head in confusion and said.

"Uh... I think there's no need to look too deeply into that question."

Kashius smiled somewhat awkwardly.

"Right, right, right."

Master Roshi, standing to the side, chimed in.

"Speaking of which, there's still half a year until the World Martial Arts Tournament. Wukong, this time, the two of us brothers have to get that prize money!"

Clenching his fist, Kashius looked at little Wukong with a serious expression.

"Mm, okay! The prize money is definitely ours!" Little Wukong cooperated by raising his hand, indicating his agreement.

Watching this scene, Master Roshi, standing to the side, broke out in a cold sweat. He could not help thinking to himself, With these two monster brothers participating, looks like this old man has no chance of winning the prize money.

"Hey, Kashius, can you tell me why you two became so strong? Also, can... can you teach me how to fly in the sky?"

Krillin asked somewhat embarrassedly, then finally said with a serious face.

"Please!"

It was no wonder. Kashius knew that flying held an enormous temptation not just for Krillin, but for anyone.

Who did not have a dream of flying? Even Kashius was no exception. After he became able to sense the existence of "ki," the first thing he did was learn the Flight Technique.

Flying was simply far too tempting.

"Hey, little brother, I want to know how to fly too," little Wukong said from the side.

"Hey, Wukong, don't you have the Flying Nimbus?" Krillin could not help saying.

"But I feel like flying by myself and flying with the Flying Nimbus are two completely different feelings," little Wukong answered when he heard that.

Hearing Son Goku say that, Kashius also felt rather helpless. Come on, big bro, your combat power is already closing in on mine, your little brother's, and yet you still can't fly? What kind of logic is that?

It looked like the loophole he had caused was still pretty big. But since a loophole had already appeared, he might as well let it grow even bigger.

At that moment, after Master Roshi looked at the sky, his expression suddenly changed, as though there was something extremely important he was about to miss.

"To be honest, even this old man is a little tempted. However, I'm rather old now, so I won't disturb you young people. I'll head back inside first." After leaving those words behind, Master Roshi rushed into the house as fast as if he were flying.

"Huh~ He's obviously going back to watch women's gymnastics..." Krillin muttered from the side.

As for that, Kashius could only smile awkwardly. This really was Master Roshi's style...

"Sure. I can teach you the Flight Technique." After pondering for a moment, Kashius agreed.

Kashius had his own plans in mind. If he raised their strength as early as possible, then when the plot of Dragon Ball Z began, they would not end up too miserable.

That stretch really was tragic for him. Either the protagonist died, or the supporting characters died. Fortunately, there was Shenron on Namek, or else those supporting characters who had died twice would have had no way to go on.

However, the protagonist dying was necessary. After all, King Kai's Kaioken was still pretty good. That was a divine skill that multiplied one's strength several times over, a divine skill that could completely beat anything down.

If he could avoid giving up on it, he would not give up on it. If he could learn it, he absolutely had to master it.

"Since that's the case, hurry up and teach us." Hearing that Kashius was willing to teach him and Wukong how to fly in the sky, Krillin had long since grown impatient.

"Yeah, yeah, hurry up and teach us." Even little Wukong started joining in the clamor.

"Mm, in that case, we'll... we'll first clean up all the things that got destroyed here, and then I'll teach you the Flight Technique."

Looking around at the mess everywhere, Kashius blinked, then said to Son Goku and the others.

Krillin: "..."

Little Wukong: "..."

Before long, the arena that had been wrecked by Little Wukong and Kashius's fight had already been cleaned up through the efforts of Kashius and the other two.

Kashius looked at the two people sitting across from him, thought for a moment, and said, "First of all, if you want to learn how to fly, you have to learn how to control qi first."

"Um, Kashius, what's qi?" Krillin asked.

"Mm, how should I put it? Qi is a mysterious power hidden inside the human body. Mm, it's like when Master Roshi uses the Kamehameha wave.

"That's an attack created by gathering qi together and then firing it out." After a brief moment of thought, Kashius answered.

"I... don't really get it, Kashius." Krillin was clearly still somewhat confused, and he asked with a lost expression.

That was understandable. Krillin had never used a Kamehameha wave the way Son Goku had. Without experiencing it himself, qi was even more unfamiliar to him.

"Mm, wait a second."

Kashius placed his hands together and slowly focused his mind, gradually drawing his qi out into his hands.

Very soon, a faint speck of light appeared over Kashius's two joined palms. Then a dazzling glow shone from his hands.

"This is qi."

Slowly showing the qi he had drawn out of his body to Little Wukong and Krillin, Kashius explained.

As soon as Little Wukong and Krillin saw it, both of them instantly leaned in, sensing the existence of "qi" up close.

"So this is qi." Little Wukong nodded thoughtfully, indicating that he understood.

Krillin, on the other hand, fell silent, as if he was thinking about something. However, Kashius sensed a trace of loneliness and lack of confidence from him.

Kashius said nothing about it. Krillin's reaction was what a normal person should have. After all, it wasn't as if everyone was like Son Goku, carrying the buff known as the protagonist's halo.

Even Kashius himself had only vaguely sensed the existence of qi after several days, and that had been under circumstances where he was deliberately searching for it.

"Mm~ You two should get a feel for qi first. Once you can control it, I'll teach you how to fly."

In order not to discourage Krillin, Kashius comforted him. "Krillin, the reason Wukong understood so quickly is because we did similar training before. Back then, it also took me a long time before I could sense the existence of qi. It's fine. I believe you'll definitely succeed too."

"Mm! Thank you, Kashius!" When Krillin heard that, a clear gleam of light appeared in his eyes, which had originally been growing dim.

That's right. I should have confidence in myself. This kind of thing isn't something you can just master casually. Didn't Kashius say it himself? Even he spent a lot of effort before he mastered it.

I should have confidence in myself. I'll definitely be able to do it too. Definitely!

After cheering himself on in his heart, Krillin's conviction grew firmer, and he became even more confident in himself.
