The Turles finally arrived at Namek Planet Namek had long awaited.
"There!"
"It looks just like Planet Namek in my memory!"
A relaxed smile, which hadn't appeared on Bulma's face for a long time, reappeared.
Like the sun breaking through the clouds.
suddenly see the light.
This time!
"It can't be wrong, right?"
Turles also looked out through the transparent porthole.
"This is definitely New Namek!"
"These familiar scents... that's them."
As the Turles slowly landed.
A large group of Planet Namek faces had already gathered below.
This time, Bulma beat Turles to it.
Full of anticipation, I rushed down.
I joined the crowd.
Looking at those green faces, Bulma felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and affection.
Bulma raised her hand and waved it forcefully.
"Hello!"
"Everyone!"
"I am Bulma!"
Do you still remember me?
Bulma noticed that no one responded to her.
He frowned slightly.
After a slight hesitation, she called out some names she recognized.
In reality, she had no idea whether any of these people were among them.
There's nothing we can do about it.
The Namekian stood before her, and she had no way of distinguishing who was who.
They're just like a bunch of Piccolo...
However, despite her attempts, there was still no response.
The group of Namekian just looked at each other.
Full of doubt and confusion.
Obviously.
None of them knew Bulma.
This continued cold treatment gradually made Bulma start to panic.
Turles, arms crossed, appeared behind Bulma.
The Planet Namek warriors immediately stepped in to block them.
Please stop.
"Outsiders, do not approach the village before explaining your purpose."
She looked at the young soldier blocking her way and tried to force a smile.
"I'm really not the enemy."
I know you.
"I've been to Planet Namek before."
" Frieza was there too, along with the Saiyan."
"At the time, Planet Namek was on the verge of destruction, and everyone was eventually transferred to Earth."
"You even stayed at my house later!"
" The Capsule Corporation!"
Don't you remember any of this?
When Bulma mentioned Frieza's name, it sparked a brief discussion.
Ultimately, however, there was still no response.
Bulma showed none of the joy she had just felt.
"How so!"
"They don't know me..."
Bulma's face was full of confusion.
"Could it be that Namekian are all a forgetful race?"
She was dejected.
They have lost all their strength and means.
Just when Bulma was about to despair, a familiar voice finally rang out.
Bulma!
"Mr. Son Goku?"
Bulma looked in the direction of the sound with surprise.
The Namekian in the crowd had already made way for them.
"Elder!"
A Namekian youth stood at the back of the crowd.
Since they can call out their own names, it means they are Namekian they knew before.
The Planet Namek youth approached Bulma and Turles with a broad smile.
His gaze lingered uncertainly on Turles for a moment.
"Wait... you don't seem to be Mr. Son Goku?"
Turles also looked at the nemesis youth.
After a slight hesitation, he asked uncertainly, "You... are Dende?"
The young man was somewhat taken aback when Turles called out his name.
He suddenly felt a little insecure.
"You know me! Could it be that you really are Mr. Son Goku?"
"No, I'm not, but you can just think of me as Saiyan from Earth," Turles smiled.
"Is that so? Well then, how rude of me!"
" Dende!" Bulma realized that the Namekian in front of her was actually the little Dende from back then!
"It's me, Bulma. Don't you recognize me?" Dende looked at Bulma.
Bulma's face darkened.
"Should I recognize you? You all look exactly alike..."
"But... Dende, you've grown a lot taller!"
Upon hearing this, Dende scratched his head sheepishly.
"Is... is that so!" He looked up at Bulma.
After a moment's thought, she laughed and said, " Bulma, you've aged a lot too!"
Bulma's smile froze instantly.
His face then turned bright red, as if he were both embarrassed and angry.
He had a fierce look on his face.
It was as if his entire body was engulfed in terrifying flames.
glare!
"What nonsense are you spouting! I'll kill you!"
Dende was so frightened that he waved his hands frantically.
"W-what's wrong?"
"I might have said something wrong... On our Planet Namek, older age is considered a sign of wisdom..."
Bulma continued to yell at her, "No way! I don't need your wisdom!"
Honestly! If you don't know how to compliment someone, you shouldn't compliment them at all!
Bulma looked displeased.
Even at this point, age remains a sensitive issue for her.
Even before this, Bulma had worried about this.
If she were to revive everyone on Earth using the Dragon Ball, how would she face them in her current state?
Those who are resurrected retain the appearance they had when they died.
In that case, wouldn't it mean only she is getting old?
Just thinking about this makes Bulma feel like she's going to die of worry...
After the atmosphere eased a little...
Dende then led Bulma and Turles on their way.
On the road.
Only then did the two realize that Dende had become the youngest elder in Planet Namek's history six months earlier.
"The people in this village were all born after we settled on this planet."
"So, the Grand Elder assigned me to lead them again..."
"By the way, is there something you need here?"
"And... how are Gohan and Krillin doing?"
Dende's question.
Bulma fell silent.
His expression darkened.
"This matter..."
Despite her grief, Bulma told Dende what had happened on Earth.
Dende was also very saddened upon hearing this.
"I understand!"
"What brings you here?"
I will help you!
"I'll take you to the Grand Elder now; he'll definitely be willing to use the Dragon Ball!"
Led by Dende, they met Grand Elder Moori without any trouble.
"Miss Bulma!"
Grand Elder Mulin appeared before them.
The Grand Elder was accompanied by two Namekian in combat form.
There were other tribesmen nearby, holding these fruits.
Among the group of Namekian, the Grand Elder was actually the most recognizable.
Although Grand Elder Mulin's stature was not as large as the former Grand Elder, he was even shorter than some Planet Namek youths.
But that peculiar aura always makes him instantly recognizable.
Grand Elder Mulin was deeply grateful for Bulma's and Earth's help back then.
If it weren't for the help of the people of Earth, our nemesis would have ceased to exist long ago.
They also showed great goodwill towards Elder Darlesmurin.
They were warmly entertained with fruits and food specially prepared for guests.
Of course, neither Bulma nor Turles was in the mood for food at that moment...
