Dragon Ball: Starting with Zeno Divine Power

The plane shot into the sky, and the three quickly left Master Roshi's island.

Master Roshi: "..."

Krillin: "..."

You guys had gone too far.

Were you making us take the blame for Goku's death?

Sure enough, not long after Indra and the other two had left, Chi-Chi arrived on the island with Ox-King.

"Where's Goku?" Chi-Chi asked.

"Dead..." Master Roshi scratched his head.

"Where's Gohan?" Chi-Chi asked again.

"He was taken away by Demon King Piccolo." Master Roshi gave an awkward laugh.

Bang!

Chi-Chi rolled her eyes and fainted on the spot.

Yamcha, Why Are You Becoming More and More Feminine?

On the jet helicopter.

"Brother-in-law, can you really erase one of them?" Bulma asked curiously.

"Actually, forget one person. No matter how many there are, I can erase them all." Indra smiled.

Bulma: "..."

I was just asking casually. Why were you suddenly bragging?

Bulma felt that Indra had to be joking.

If he could really erase someone so easily, would they still need to be this nervous?

Back when Demon King Piccolo appeared, she had never seen her brother-in-law erase him.

Bulma simply stopped talking.

There was still a year left anyway. Maybe Goku would reach even greater heights through training and defeat those two Saiyans.

A day later.

Bulma repaired Raditz's scouter and gave it to Krillin.

Krillin successfully found Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, and Yamcha, who were scattered across the world, and explained the situation to them.

That same day, led by Yajirobe, the four appeared at the Temple and began a new round of training under the Guardian's guidance.

After several hours of training, the warriors took a short break.

"In a year, two even stronger Saiyans... I really don't know just how powerful they'll be." Tien Shinhan said gravely.

"Oh, right. Indra said he could help us erase one of them." Krillin said with a smile.

"Indra? Who's that?" Yamcha asked strangely.

"Indra is Bulma's brother-in-law. What kind of memory do you guys have?" Krillin glanced at Yamcha.

"Oh, him..." Yamcha remembered.

"Krillin, you said Indra could erase one of them? What do you mean?" Tien Shinhan asked.

"Indra is a magician. Didn't you know?" Krillin asked in return.

Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, and Chiaotzu all shook their heads together.

"I hadn't heard of it either." Yajirobe, sitting nearby, chimed in.

"A magician? Are you kidding?" Tien Shinhan did not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Hahaha, a magician? Krillin, that joke isn't funny at all." Yamcha burst out laughing.

Krillin: "..."

If it wasn't funny, why were you laughing so loudly?

"Indra is a magician? How come I never knew?" After laughing for a while, Yamcha asked.

"That was a long time ago." Krillin smiled. "I only heard Miss Bulma mention it by chance... Apparently, Indra and Tights met back then because he used magic to erase a bad guy who was bullying Tights."

"Did he really erase that person?" Yamcha asked in surprise.

"Who knows? Tights said that person disappeared for no apparent reason." Krillin smiled. "But you all know Tights is a novelist. It's normal for her to imagine things that don't actually exist."

"Alright, let's continue training. I don't want to die." Tien Shinhan suggested.

Krillin nodded and stood up.

Yamcha also pulled himself together.

"Oh, right. I also heard that Indra erased someone else's arms back then." Krillin added casually.

"Wiped out both arms? Seriously?" Tien Shinhan was astonished. "Did both arms suddenly disappear?"

"No one knows exactly what happened. Just treat it as a story—we've got nothing better to do, so it'll pass the time." Krillin laughed, clearly not taking it seriously.

Yamcha: "..."

Yamcha silently lowered his head and glanced down.

About twenty years ago, his penis had mysteriously disappeared.

Could that have had something to do with Indra?

Had he wiped out his penis?

Yamcha immediately shook his head hard.

What am I even thinking?

If Indra had such a miraculous ability, why didn't he use it to get rid of Demon King Piccolo?

Wasn't it Goku who defeated Demon King Piccolo and saved humanity from the demon's clutches?

"Yamcha, what are you thinking about?" Krillin asked.

"Nothing... nothing..." Yamcha immediately came back to his senses and even raised a dainty finger.

Krillin: "..."

Tien Shinhan: "..."

"Still, Yamcha, you're getting more and more girly these days," Krillin remarked.

"None of your business! If you keep spouting nonsense, Krillin, I'll kill you!" Yamcha flew into a rage and shouted sharply.

A year passed quickly.

More precisely, it had not been a full year.

About eight months had gone by.

Vegeta and Nappa's spacecraft descended from the sky and crashed into a small city.

BOOM!

The city was instantly blasted into a massive crater.

Vegeta and Nappa flew out of the spacecraft.

Nappa pressed his index and middle fingers together and jabbed upward.

A tremendous surge of energy erupted at once.

BOOM!

The entire city was reduced to ruins, effortlessly destroyed by Nappa.

"Heh heh heh, that was quite a special way to say hello, wasn't it?" Nappa said with a grin.

"Idiot. If there were Dragon Balls nearby and your greeting destroyed them, I'd make you die a miserable death," Vegeta said darkly.

"Uh... my deepest apologies, Prince Vegeta. I overlooked the matter of the Dragon Balls..." Nappa hurriedly apologized.

"Enough. Stop talking about useless things," Vegeta snorted.

Nappa quickly activated his scouter to detect the battle power levels of Earth's fighters.

"Strange, Prince Vegeta. Why are there so many people on Earth with battle power above 1,000?" Nappa asked in astonishment.

"That's normal. They knew we were coming, so they trained in advance." Vegeta smiled disdainfully. "Let's go take a look at that Divine Sword first."

"Yes, Prince Vegeta!" Nappa immediately replied, activating his scouter again. "Over there! Prince Vegeta, there are two beings with the highest battle power over there. Once we find them, we can learn where the Divine Sword is being kept—and the whereabouts of the Dragon Balls too."

"Let's go." Vegeta smiled faintly.

WHOOSH!

The two transformed into streaks of white light and sped toward Piccolo and Son Gohan's location.

A barren wasteland.

This was where Piccolo and Son Gohan trained.

"Gohan, they're coming this way!" Piccolo said to Son Gohan.

"Ah... y-yes..." Son Gohan's lips trembled in fear.

"Get ready to fight. Don't be afraid. We've become stronger—they're nothing special!" Piccolo reassured him.

"Okay." Son Gohan clenched his fists and nodded forcefully, though his body could not stop trembling.

Smack!

At that moment, Krillin descended from the sky and landed beside Son Gohan.

"Saiyans?" Son Gohan jumped in fright and immediately raised his guard.

"Gohan, you've grown." Krillin greeted him.

"And you are?" Son Gohan couldn't remember Krillin. After all, they had only met once a year ago, and so much time had passed that he barely had any impression of him.

"I'm Krillin." Krillin scratched his head.

"Ah... I remember now." Son Gohan looked excited. "Dad often told me about Uncle Krillin. He said that although Uncle Krillin isn't very tall, he's really strong."

"That guy Goku, talking like he's so tall himself." Krillin muttered darkly, shooting a sidelong glance.

"Enough small talk. Let me ask you something." Piccolo glanced at Krillin and asked, "When is Son Goku coming?"

"Goku seems to have miscalculated the time. It'll probably take him a while to get here, so we can only fight here first." Krillin scratched his head as he answered.

"They're here!" Piccolo shouted.

As soon as he spoke, Vegeta and Nappa appeared in the sky.

"It seems they were prepared for us long ago. They knew we would come." Vegeta looked down at the three of them with a smile.

"Their battle power isn't much." Nappa chuckled softly.

Slap!

Vegeta descended from the sky.

Nappa followed close behind.

Piccolo and the other two raised their guard and prepared for battle.

"It seems you already knew when we would arrive on Earth, and that we would come looking for you." Vegeta smiled and said flatly, "Let me ask you a question. I hope you'll answer honestly."

"Go ahead," Piccolo replied.

"Where is the Divine Sword kept? Take me there." Vegeta revealed his purpose.
