"Hmph!"
Bulma snorted coldly after hearing that.
"It's just a Dragon Radar. Even if I don't ask my dad, I can still make one myself!"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
"How long will it take?"
"Th-Three days, three days at most!"
Bulma held up three fingers as she spoke.
"Tights, did your dad do something to upset Bulma lately?" Roger asked Tights quietly.
"I don't know, but I don't think so!"
"Oh, if that's the case, then I'll give you the Dragon Radar!"
Bulma nodded after hearing that.
"Roger, if I make the Dragon Radar, can you take me to look for the Dragon Balls?"
"Bulma, you're still too young. When you grow up, I'll take you to look for the Dragon Balls, okay?"
Roger spoke to Bulma with the air of an older brother.
"Aren't you just as young as me? And if you gather the Dragon Balls and make a wish, won't there be no Dragon Balls left?"
Seeing Roger act like a little adult, Bulma felt a little displeased.
Roger immediately laughed.
Although he was about the same age as Bulma now, the ages of his two lives combined made him older than even her sister.
"The Seven Dragon Balls can grant one wish a year!"
"One wish a year?"
The two of them looked confused when they heard that.
"Yes. After the Dragon Balls grant a wish, they turn into stone. They won't recover until a year has passed!"
Bulma said, "I see!"
Roger nodded.
"Oh, Tights, you absolutely must not write about the Dragon Balls in your novels. Otherwise, it'll bring a lot of trouble to Earth!"
"Okay!"
Although she really wanted to become a famous great writer, she would not put Earth in danger just to gain fame.
"Then it's settled, Roger. Once I grow up, you'll take me to look for the Dragon Balls!"
Roger nodded.
"Then I'm going to go see how to make this Dragon Radar now!"
As she spoke, Bulma took the Five-Star Dragon Ball and headed into the house.
"Tights, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first?"
"You're leaving already?"
"Yeah, I'll come back in a few days once Bulma makes the Dragon Radar!"
"Alright! But do you really believe Bulma can make a Dragon Radar?"
"I don't know, but I believe in Dr. Brief!"
Roger smiled.
"Then I'm off?"
"Okay!"
With that, Roger used Instant Transmission and arrived at Kami's Lookout.
"Roger!"
Earth God was startled to see Roger suddenly appear.
Roger nodded.
"Long time no see, Earth God, Mr. Popo!"
"Long time no see!"
Earth God replied.
"Roger, why did you suddenly come here?"
"I came to fulfill my promise!"
"Fulfill your promise? You mean..."
"Yes, I came to take you to Namek!"
"Now?"
Roger nodded.
"Popo, do you want to come with me?"
"No, Earth God. I'd rather stay on Earth!"
"All right, then!"
Upon hearing this, Earth God immediately looked toward Roger.
"Earth God, put your hand on my back!"
"Okay!"
Following Roger's instructions, Earth God placed his hand on Roger's back.
Seeing this, Roger raised his right index finger to his forehead and used Instant Transmission to bring Earth God to a village on Namek.
Namek was the fourth planet in the 27th main star system of the Vega constellation. Its atmosphere and surface gravity were roughly the same as Earth's. Three stars orbited around it, its sky was green, and there was no night.
A year on Namek lasted only 130 days.
Earth God looked up at the green sky, then at the white Namekian-style houses around him.
"So this is Namek?"
"Yep!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged Namekian appeared. Seeing Earth God leaning on a cane and Roger beside him, he immediately approached them with a curious expression.
"Who are you?"
"Hello, I am Earth God from Earth. This Roger beside me is a Saiyan!"
"A... Saiyan!"
The middle-aged Namekian's expression immediately changed.
Although Planet Vegeta had already been destroyed by Frieza, the Saiyans' reputation remained infamous throughout the universe.
"What's wrong?"
Earth God asked, looking puzzled.
"Maybe because... we Saiyans don't have a very good reputation in the universe!"
"Not a very good reputation?"
"Yeah, because we Saiyans used to invade other people's planets!"
"..."
Earth God was left speechless.
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
"A... a Saiyan has come!"
At that moment, the middle-aged Namekian shouted toward the surroundings.
As soon as his voice fell, a large number of Namekians emerged from their houses and surrounded the two of them.
Seeing himself surrounded, Earth God immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Roger wasn't bringing him back to his homeland at all. He was clearly getting him killed.
"Why is there another Namekian?"
A somewhat plump Namekian said.
"Um... this is all a misunderstanding. Roger merely brought me back to Namek for a visit!"
"A misunderstanding?"
Just then, a young Namekian flew over from the distance.
This was Nail, the one who fused with Piccolo in the original Dragon Balls story.
"Everyone, stop! They are friends who have come all the way from Earth!"
"Friends!"
"Yes, the Grand Elder said so!"
As Nail spoke, he looked toward Earth God.
"Hello, my name is Nail. The Grand Elder asked me to invite you to meet him!"
"Okay!"
Earth God nodded.
Afterward, the two followed Nail to the Grand Elder's house.
Though it had been twenty years, he was still as fat as in the original story.
"Grand Elder, I brought them here!"
The Grand Elder nodded.
"Grand Elder!"
Earth God spoke to the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder nodded again.
"You're Katas's child, aren't you?"
"Katas?"
"A long, long time ago, a Namekian fled to Earth because of the sudden climate change on Namek. He was your father, Katas!"
"So... my father's name was Katas!"
As he spoke, the Grand Elder looked over at Roger.
"Hello. I am Namek's Grand Elder. May I ask what I should call you?"
"Roger?"
Roger nodded.
"Roger, how did you come to know Katas's child?"
"After Planet Vegeta was destroyed, I went to Earth. That was where I met God!"
"God?"
"He is Earth's God!"
"I see. Then, Katas's child, do you plan to return to Namek?"
The Grand Elder asked Earth God.
"No!"
Earth God shook his head.
"I only came back this time to have a look!"
"Is that so!"
Just then, Roger suddenly spoke to the Grand Elder.
"Grand Elder, could you let me take a look at your Namekian History Book?"
