Finding Warriors

Ōten was delighted by Gohan's progress. After all, the boy's perseverance had exceeded his expectations!

Hah!!!

Suddenly, Ōten fired a Ki blast from his hand at Gohan!

Seeing this, Gohan raised both hands above his head and crossed his palms as power rapidly gathered in them!

"Demon Flash!!!"

Boom!!!

A deafening explosion rang out, and flames soared into the sky as smoke and dust billowed!

At that moment, Ōten suddenly appeared behind Gohan. Gohan reacted immediately, swinging an elbow fiercely at Ōten as he moved at high speed!

But Ōten blocked it with ease, then pressed his advantage with a punch that landed directly on Gohan's body!

Gohan immediately plummeted like a cannonball!

Looking down at Gohan, Ōten wore a stern expression. "Get up. This won't do at all. You're far too weak! At this rate, you won't be able to protect Earth!"

Gohan struggled to his feet and let out a roar. The power of Super Saiyan 2 instantly rose to its peak. As the power within him surged wildly, an astonishing aura shot into the sky!

Noticing Son Gohan's anger, a smile appeared on Ōten's face!

For the time that followed, Ōten trained Gohan every day, and Gohan's strength continued to grow!

Universe 7's Destruction God's Realm!

"Whis, have you decided who to send to this tournament? The Inspector is taking this competition very seriously!"

Beerus said solemnly!

"Ho ho ho, Lord Beerus, there is no need to hurry. The Inspector has already given instructions regarding the participants for this tournament!"

Upon hearing Whis's words, Beerus's eyes immediately widened!

"What? Whis, why didn't you tell me sooner? In that case, I'll go sleep for a while. Remember to wake me before the Inspector returns!"

Watching Beerus start dozing off again, Whis shook his head helplessly!

Goku and Vegeta stood nearby, still considering potential participants. When they heard Whis say that the roster had already been decided, they immediately grew tense!

"I was going to suggest Krillin for this tournament. After all, he's the strongest human on Earth. So the participants were already decided!"

Goku muttered!

Vegeta, standing nearby, looked at Whis and asked, "Can Kakarot and I participate?"

Only then did Goku react, looking at Whis with the same hopeful expression!

"Ho ho ho, don't worry. Both of you are on the roster!"

"However, you still need to find one more person, because Lord Ōten instructed that there would be five participants!"

Whis said with a smile!

"Then let Krillin join!"

Goku said excitedly!

Vegeta curled his lip. "He won't do. He can only compete with Earthlings. If he faces experts from other universes, he won't stand a chance at all!"

Goku gave a bitter smile. He understood that this was the truth!

"The strongest on Earth right now are Piccolo and Majin Buu. But Majin Buu doesn't feel reliable. Although he's powerful, he might not be suited for a tournament!"

Vegeta said indifferently!

"Fine, then let's find Piccolo. Vegeta, are you coming?"

Gohan said with a smile!

Vegeta crossed his arms and said proudly, "You go. I'm going to train with Whis. This time, I'll definitely surpass you!"

Goku froze for a moment before saying, "Then I'm off. I'll bring Piccolo back soon!"

The next second, Son Goku arrived on Earth and quickly found Piccolo!

After Goku explained the situation, Piccolo shook his head. He said he did not want to participate in such a tournament, because he understood that with his current strength, he had no way of defeating the experts of the universe. Besides, the other contestants were all far stronger than him. He had no desire to make a fool of himself again!

However, when Piccolo heard that Gohan would be participating, he said he would go watch the tournament. After all, Gohan was his godson!

Goku scratched his head in frustration!

"If Piccolo won't participate, then who should I look for?"

After thinking it over again and again, Goku still decided to find Majin Buu!

Satan City!

Inside a luxurious villa, Satan sat comfortably smoking a cigar, while Majin Buu beside him devoured a mountain of food!

Whoosh!

Son Goku suddenly appeared before the two of them!

Satan was so frightened that he fell straight off the sofa. Only after seeing who it was did he let out a sigh of relief!

"Goku, you scared me!"

Majin Buu did not even raise his head as he continued wiping out the food on the table!

Goku suddenly felt hungry too, and his stomach let out an uncooperative growl!

Mr. Satan smiled. At his beckoning, the servants immediately brought out a lavish spread of food!

Goku's eyes immediately lit up. "Then I won't hold back!"

He then began eating like a whirlwind!

Ten minutes later!

Mr. Satan smiled and said, "Goku, did you come here for something?"

Hearing this, Son Goku immediately stopped moving. Ignoring the bits of food on his face, he cried out in surprise!

"How did I forget the important matter?"

After Goku explained everything, Mr. Satan and Majin Buu finally understood why he had come. In the end, only after Mr. Satan encouraged and persuaded him did Majin Buu agree!

Having finally completed his task, Goku let out a soft sigh of relief!

After confirming the participants, Goku used Instant Transmission to return directly to the Destruction God's Realm!

"Now that everyone has been gathered, train well with Vegeta from now on!"

Whis said to Goku with a smile!

With the tournament drawing near, all the warriors were training intensely!

Gohan was currently undergoing Ōten's devilish training, while Goku and Vegeta continued strengthening themselves under Whis's guidance!

Time always passed quickly!

Only one week remained until the tournament!

At that moment, the door to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber opened, and Ōten emerged with Gohan!

"Lord Inspector!"

"Gohan!"

Tien immediately stepped forward respectfully to welcome Ōten out of seclusion!

Gohan gave Tien a look!

Tien's face immediately broke into a smile!

He was equally delighted to see Gohan. After all, the two had been friends who had faced life and death together on Namek!

Ōten looked at Tien and said, "This Hyperbolic Time Chamber is quite a good place. It would be even better without the time limit!"

Hearing this, Tien replied respectfully, "Lord Inspector, the power of time is beyond my abilities. The Hyperbolic Time Chamber has existed since ancient times!

"Moreover, changing the time limit might cause temporal disorder in this spacetime. When that happens, Earth may be destroyed because of it!"

Ōten nodded!

He did not know which godly official had created this Hyperbolic Time Chamber, but power involving time was likely something only angels could control. He also wondered what had happened in ancient times for Earth to possess a Hyperbolic Time Chamber!

Just then, Gohan suddenly spoke. "Tien, can I ask you for a favor?"

Tien smiled. "Gohan, go ahead. As long as it's something I can do, I'll definitely help you!"

"I want clothes like my dad's. I want to wear the same martial arts uniform as my dad when I participate in this tournament!"

Gohan said with a smile!

Tien immediately understood what Gohan meant. A dazzling light instantly appeared in his hand, and in just an instant, an orange Turtle School martial arts uniform appeared on Gohan's body!

Gohan happily looked over the martial arts uniform identical to Goku's!

Half a day later, Ōten left with Gohan!

By Ōten's standards, they should spend the coming week enjoying themselves. Their relentlessly tense training should come to an end for now!

Thus, for the following week, the two visited all kinds of restaurants across Earth, and their astonishing appetites caused quite a commotion!
