Earth.
Geographically speaking, this place is not only located on the edge of the North Galaxy, but also considered a periphery in the context of the entire developed universe.
In a high-end private hospital in the West City, sunlight streamed through the blinds into the quiet ward.
Chi-Chi sat by the hospital bed, somewhat annoyed, and forcefully turned off the communicator in her hand, making a crisp "snap" sound.
"Seriously, that guy! He's even less reliable than our Goku."
With the burden of family pressures lightened, Chi-Chi had more free time.
She also started to dress up like Bulma.
Before her, Bulma lay weakly on the hospital bed, carefully cradling her newborn baby in her arms.
On the other side of the hospital bed was Tights, dressed simply.
" Chi-Chi is right. Turles is so busy, yet he didn't miss Retasu's birth. I'm starting to seriously question your judgment!"
Tights looked serious, arms crossed, standing up for her sister.
Bulma gave a weak smile, a hint of helplessness on her pale face.
"Forget it... He's only focused on surpassing Little Son and his brother-in-law all day long... He probably won't care about anything else..."
Saiyan pride is sometimes more important than life itself.
"Let nature take its course... I think things are fine as they are now!"
Bulma looked at the baby sleeping peacefully in her arms, her eyes shining with maternal love, and a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.
Just then, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open forcefully!
Tiny Retasu strode in with great speed, followed closely by the slightly larger Son Gohan.
"Mommy, Tights, Aunt Bulma!"
As soon as Son Gohan entered, he politely greeted his mother Chi-Chi, Tights, and Bulma.
Retasu, on the other hand, remained silent.
His eyes, so much like Turles', swept quickly over his mother Tights, his aunt Chi-Chi, and his little aunt Bulma, as if to say hello.
Then, his gaze instantly fixed on the baby in Bulma's arms, his eyes shining!
It was a mixture of curiosity, scrutiny, and a touch of instinctive inquiry stemming from a blood connection.
"Bu... Bull, Erma's... child!"
Retasu's figure appeared at the bedside in an instant, so fast that even Gohan didn't have time to react.
Tights was startled and quickly reached out to block her son from getting too close, fearing that the little guy might be too rough and wake the newborn baby.
"You little brat! How dare you call Bulma that? Call her Auntie!"
Tights Retasu a light tap on the head, sounding annoyed.
Retasu impatiently moved his mother's hand away and shook his head righteously.
"Ugh, this is troublesome!"
Bulma couldn't help but laugh at Retasu's precocious demeanor.
She smiled thoughtfully and said, "His name... that's it, let's give him a name here..."
Upon hearing that she needed to choose a name, for some reason, Tights's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she began to feel a little nervous.
The smile of that little guy from the future kept appearing in her mind.
Trunks...
If Bulma had a different name now, would that child... still exist?
This paradox involving the timeline made Tights's breathing quicken.
Chi-Chi didn't think too much about it; she came over and made the suggestion with great interest.
"How about calling Bugita? It's a combination of Bulma and Vegeta's names!"
Bulma's smile froze for a moment.
This name... it just sounds weird.
Tights also came to her senses and quickly shook her head in denial.
But she dared not speak, looking nervously at Bulma, waiting for her to make a decision.
"What's wrong, sister? Why do you look so nervous?"
"No, no... I'm just curious what name you want. If you can't think of one, how about I help you come up with one?"
Bulma fell into deep thought, her fingers gently stroking the baby's soft cheek.
She looked at the baby's sparse, pale purple hair.
A name gradually took shape in her mind.
"Let's call it..."
" Trunks, how are you?"
The moment Bulma uttered the name " Trunks," Tights felt her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settle back down.
She let out a long sigh of relief, a genuine smile spreading across her face.
" Trunks... Great! Great! Hmm! It's a good name!"
Chi-Chi nodded as well.
" Trunks sounds much better! Bulma, you have a great eye for names!"
"It's Trunks, not Bitrunks..." Bulma corrected helplessly.
"Trunks..."
Retasu, standing to the side, pronounced the name slowly and deliberately, as if trying to memorize it.
He stretched out his tiny finger and carefully poked Trunks' chubby cheek.
Seemingly sensing this unfamiliar presence, Trunks, who was fast asleep, suddenly burst into tears.
A loud cry instantly shattered the warmth of the hospital room.
"Oh dear! What's wrong Trunks?!"
Bulma and Tights were immediately thrown into a panic.
Startled by the sudden cry, Retasu withdrew his finger as if electrocuted, and for the first time, a look of bewilderment appeared on his cool little face.
With Bulma's gentle coaxing, Trunks ' loud crying gradually subsided, turning into soft sobs.
She carefully lifted the little one in her arms a little higher, her face showing the tenderness of a new mother.
Trunks, take a good look at everyone!
Trunks's innocent blue eyes, just like Bulma's, scanned the hospital room with curiosity, revealing his bewilderment at this new world.
Son Gohan and Retasu also came over, one on each side of the bed, examining their newborn little brother.
Gohan wore a gentle smile, reaching out his finger as if to touch it but hesitating, only gently waving it in mid-air and softly teasing it.
"It's so small..."
Retasu maintained his cool expression, arms crossed, but his eyes betrayed his curiosity and curiosity about the new life.
Inside the ward, Chi-Chi and Tights looked at the children with warm smiles on their faces.
Tights's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, completely settled back into her stomach when she heard the name " Trunks ".
Looking at the baby now, whose face resembled that of the little one in the future, her smile became even more genuine and radiant.
In the midst of this tranquility and warmth, a sudden and unexpected change occurred!
Rumble--!!!
A terrifying roar, seemingly capable of tearing the entire world apart, came from the sky without warning!
Everyone in the ward was startled and turned to look in the direction of the sound.
Outside the window, the once clear and blue sky seemed to have been grabbed by an unseen, giant demonic hand, tearing open a huge, dark red crack!
The rift stretched across the sky, its edges crackling with ominous crimson lightning, and its depths filled with chilling, endless darkness.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying pressure surged out from the crack!
The windows of the ward shattered instantly from the terrifying air pressure!
Shards of glass, accompanied by a fierce gust of wind, swept towards the people inside the room!
"Careful!"
Chi-Chi and Tights gasped in surprise.
Both Son Gohan and Retasu simultaneously unleashed dazzling auras!
Buzz!
Son Gohan and Retasu flanked the hospital bed like two tiny gatekeepers.
The powerful aura formed an indestructible barrier, repelling all the shards of glass and the fierce wind.
