Now things were settled.
"Krillin, did you notice? That Android 17 has been eyeing the thing in Dr. Gero's hand. Find a way to snatch it from him later," Piccolo instructed quietly.
"Huh? Got it." Krillin nodded.
"Dr. Gero, should I kill him?" Android 17 turned and asked Dr. Gero.
"Of course. I want you to kill his son right in front of Son Goku." Dr. Gero smiled and turned Son Goku's head toward Son Gohan. "Son Goku, watch carefully. Your son will be the first to die because of you."
"Gohan..." Son Goku had no strength left and could only murmur softly.
"Fine, then I'll deal with this brat myself!" Android 17 smiled faintly, raised his hand, and aimed it at Son Gohan's head.
"Waaah!"
At that moment, Krillin suddenly made his move.
"Ki Blast!"
A sphere of energy rapidly gathered in Krillin's hand before he fired it toward Dr. Gero.
The Ki Blast was not particularly fast, but it was quite powerful.
"Piccolo, now!" Krillin said quietly.
Seizing the opportunity, Piccolo was about to rush forward and save Son Goku.
Watching the Ki Blast fly toward him, Dr. Gero gave a contemptuous smile.
The next moment, Dr. Gero stretched out his hand toward the Ki Blast.
"What? He didn't dodge?" Krillin cried out. "What is he trying to do?"
Piccolo was stunned as well.
Was he going to take Krillin's Ki Blast head-on?
If you were Android 17, taking it head-on would be one thing.
But you were only the scientist who created them. Were you really going to block it with your hand?
Then, an astonishing scene unfolded.
The instant the Ki Blast came into contact with Dr. Gero's large hand, it rapidly began to shrink.
Whoosh!
0 for Flowers.
The Ki Blast vanished.
"What just happened?"
