Strength Increase

An Xiu spoke up to stop the two from continuing to make fools of themselves:

"Even if the two of you have grown stronger thanks to Saiyan physiology, you still won't be their match. Everyone here is stronger than you two. When the time comes, train properly for me!"

"What?!"

Raditz and Nappa were startled. They looked at Krillin, Gohan, and Yamcha in disbelief.

Even those guys, including Kakarot's Saiyan brat, are stronger than the two of us...

Raditz and Nappa were utterly dumbfounded.

At the same time, An Xiu turned to Tien Shinhan and the others.

"Raditz and Nappa have already been beaten up by you. Let's write off our past grievances from this point onward, shall we?"

Tien Shinhan looked calm. "Since Chiaotzu has already been revived, and I did give him a thorough beating, we'll let this matter end here. As long as he doesn't come looking to provoke me again."

The others naturally had no objections.

"Alright, then next, you'll all enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber together to train."

An Xiu looked at everyone and instructed them:

"To help everyone improve their training efficiency, you'll enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber in different rounds according to similar power levels."

"Remember, don't stay inside too long the first time, and don't train too far from the exit. After six months, I'll come in to find you. You may spar with each other inside, but no killing. Understood?"

An Xiu swept his gaze across the group, then opened the door to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

"First round: Krillin, Piccolo, Tien Shinhan, Yamcha, Raditz, and Nappa. You six go in first."

Before they left, An Xiu handed each of them a Hoi-Poi Capsule and two Senzu Beans.

"The Hoi-Poi Capsules contain your food. As for the Senzu Beans, if anyone is seriously injured during a spar, remember to take one in time or give one to the other person. Don't let anyone die in there."

Everyone nodded, then entered the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train.

Twelve hours later.

An Xiu went in and brought them all out.

After this period of training.

Everyone's strength had improved greatly.

Raditz and Nappa in particular.

Their power levels had far surpassed Tien Shinhan's and Yamcha's, reaching the same tier as Krillin, whose potential had been unlocked by the Grand Elder, and Piccolo, who had already been much stronger than them.

An Xiu sensed everyone's ki.

At present, Tien Shinhan's and Yamcha's power levels had risen from just over forty thousand to around two hundred and fifty thousand.

Krillin's and Piccolo's power levels, meanwhile, had risen from two hundred thousand and three hundred thousand to around one million and two million respectively.

Since he had not gone to Namek to merge with Nail, Piccolo's power level was much weaker than in the original story.

As for the two Saiyans, Raditz and Nappa.

Their improvement was naturally the greatest.

Their power levels had risen from less than ten thousand to roughly one million and one million two hundred thousand respectively. In half a year, they had increased by more than a hundredfold.

Another twelve hours passed.

Vegeta, Son Goku, and Son Gohan also emerged from the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

After this period of training, Goku and Vegeta still had not broken through the bottleneck in their Super Saiyan transformations, but fortunately, their power levels in their normal states had improved considerably.

As for Son Gohan, his power level had already exceeded one million when the Grand Elder unlocked his potential on Namek.

Now, after more than half a year of training.

His normal-state power level had reached over ten million, and he was only one step away from transforming into a Super Saiyan.

"Not bad. I'm quite pleased with everyone's improvement in strength. It's clear that you've all put in a great deal of effort, so I've decided to give you a gift."

An Xiu swept his gaze over everyone, then contacted North Kai through telepathy and asked him to get in touch with Nail, who was far away on Namek.

Not long afterward, An Xiu sensed Nail's surging ki.

An Xiu immediately took Tien Shinhan, Yamcha, Piccolo, Son Goku, Raditz, and Nappa, who had yet to have their potential unlocked by the Grand Elder, and used Instant Transmission to travel to Namek.

He had left Namek in too much of a hurry before.

An Xiu had forgotten to have Son Goku ask the Grand Elder to unlock his potential as well, so he simply brought him along this time.

After the Grand Elder, who had already returned to his physical prime, unlocked their potential, everyone's strength surged severalfold, or even dozens of times over, once again.

After returning to Earth, An Xiu did not immediately have everyone enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train. Instead, he first let them rest on Kami's Lookout for a while.

During this time, Piccolo finally found Kami and merged with him, becoming a Super Namekian.

Having already had his potential unlocked by the Grand Elder, after merging with Kami, his strength skyrocketed to a level comparable to Super Saiyan Grade 2.

Considering that once Kami disappeared, there would no longer be any Dragon Balls on Earth.

An Xiu went to Namek once again and brought over Dende, who was supposed to become Earth's Kami in the first place. Of course, Dende had done so willingly and with full agreement.

After all, An Xiu had originally planned to simply find any Namekian willing to come over. But since Dende was willing, he naturally chose him.

At the same time, during this period.

An Xiu taught Instant Transmission and Kaio-ken to Son Goku and the four who could not transform: Piccolo, Krillin, Tien Shinhan, and Yamcha.

Instant Transmission had originally been a skill Son Goku learned in the original story. However, An Xiu's intervention had altered the plot, and Son Goku had therefore never gone to Yardrat.

Naturally, he had never had the chance to learn Instant Transmission.

Teaching Son Goku Instant Transmission could be considered An Xiu's compensation to him.

Ten days later.

An Xiu had everyone enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber again to train, this time all together.

Of course, An Xiu himself was excluded.

He did not go in to train.

Instead, he waited outside.

For one thing, with his current strength.

If he truly immersed himself in training, he would affect the others inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

For another, An Xiu was not short on time.

Whenever he wanted to train, he could do so at any time.

Three days passed.

When everyone emerged from the Hyperbolic Time Chamber again, their ki had undergone tremendous changes. The most obvious change was the massive increase in their base power levels.

"Not bad. Next, show me the results of your training during this time."

An Xiu looked at Son Goku.

"Kakarot, you'll go first."

"Alright, no problem."

After speaking, Son Goku gave a low shout and directly transformed into Super Saiyan Full Power.

His ki was so immense that he could practically be said to have one foot across the threshold of Super Saiyan 2.
