The two arrived at an open room with a transparent glass window facing the competition venue.
After the two landed, the ceiling of the room slowly closed.
"Sit down!" Chronoa pointed to the sofa next to her and sat down naturally.
Goku looked around and then sat down. He hadn't expected Chronoa to know how to enjoy herself so much!
"Wait a minute, your parents should be back soon. Would you like something to drink?" Chronoa said to Goku with a smile.
"No need, they're here!"
"What? They're here!"
"Yes, just now, I sensed that my parents are flying this way."
Goku nodded in agreement. He had just sensed two familiar auras, and that familiar feeling was definitely from his parents!
Then he noticed that Chronoa seemed to be in contact with someone.
"Hmm? What's wrong, Chronoa?"
"It's nothing, I just told your parents." Chronoa chuckled casually and didn't say anything more.
However, Goku could sense that Bardock and Gine were flying much faster.
A few seconds later, Bardock and Gine arrived above the room, where a circular passage slowly opened up in the ceiling for them to descend.
Goku calmly stood up from the sofa, slowly watching the two land on the ground from the air, but his slightly trembling arms clearly betrayed his feelings.
" Kakarot!!"
Seeing the face before her that looked exactly like her husband's, Gine couldn't hold back any longer and called out "Kakarot!" with tears in her eyes as she rushed over.
They already knew on the way that this Kakarot was from their own timeline! Their true child.
Goku bent over so that Gine could hug him. Feeling his mother's embrace, he felt his eyes getting wet for some reason, and hot tears welled up in his eye bags.
He may not have much of an impression of Bardock and Gine, or many memories of them, but that blood-is-thicker-than-water kinship will not fade with time.
"Mother!" Goku's voice, tinged with tears, reached everyone's ears.
Goku couldn't remember the last time he shed tears. In front of his parents, a person is always a child!
"Kakarot... Kakarot, you've really worked hard all these years!"
Bardock stood not far away, watching the mother and son embrace and weep, and for some reason his own eyes gradually reddened.
Kakarot has grown up! He's become a capable young man!
Over the years, Bardock has watched him grow up, step by step, into a strong Saiyan, a husband, and a father.
The satisfied smile on Bardock's face when he first transformed into Super Saiyan.
When Kakarot and Bulma got married, he considered appearing before them, but ultimately decided against it.
When their grandson, Son Gohan, was born, he really wanted to meet his adorable grandson.
He had always wanted Kakarot to have anything to do with them, but now it seemed there was no escaping it.
But it's alright... they can finally meet!
Bardock walked forward with a smile and embraced Goku and Gine.
Tears welled up in Chronoa's eyes as well; it was so touching. Was this what family love was?
A few minutes later, everyone sat down.
Gine and Goku started chatting about everyday things. They talked about many things, from Bulma to Goten and Bulla, from how they met to getting married.
Bardock and Gine were unaware of the details, since observation required the aura emitted by people from the original timeline.
Through Goku's narration, Bardock and Gine gained a complete understanding of the situation.
Based on the time Bardock observed him, Goku finally understood what was going on with the slight feeling of being watched during each battle.
I initially thought it was Towa, but it turned out his father had detected his fight and was watching.
It's a pity that Towa has been unfairly blamed for so many years.
"Dad, Mom, would you like to come back with me this time?"
"Go and meet your daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter, and eldest brother."
Goku looked at them with great anticipation, believing that Bulma would be very eager to see her parents.
Leaving aside Goten and Bulla now, Gohan also asked his grandparents about it a few years ago when Gohan little.
Back then, they could only say they had gone to a faraway place, and now it seems that's really true; the Time Realm is indeed very far away from them.
He had made his word a law.
But this result is good too; it would be better if there were more.
Pooh!
Upon realizing this, Goku quickly shook his head, clearing his mind of distracting thoughts. What was he thinking? How could he possibly have his words become law? Stop daydreaming.
Bardock and Gine exchanged a glance after hearing Goku's invitation.
"Good!"
The two agreed. Originally, they avoided contact with Goku to prevent Goku from getting involved with them, but now that things had come to this, there was no need to avoid meeting.
They also really wanted to see their eldest son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter.
To say that Saiyan don't value family ties is complete nonsense; they just keep it hidden inside and rarely express it.
Moreover, the main reason is the environment. In the original atmosphere of Planet Vegeta, valuing family ties was even looked down upon.
Even so, it didn't reach the point of being ignored and indifferent, let alone the two Saiyan, Bardock and Gine were exceptions.
Central City in that kind of atmosphere, they valued family ties so much. Now, after living in the Time Realm for so many years, they can only occasionally see the battle scenes but can never meet them.
They really miss them!
"Let's leave after my match!" Bardock said, looking at the dueling arena through the transparent glass.
They'd been chatting for ages, and Yamoshi was already waiting in the ring.
Looking at Yamoshi on the ring, Bardock wondered if he could win this time.
The reason I was able to win the previous year was because I had an advantage in terms of form.
That time, he mastered Super Saiyan 4 Full Power, while Yamoshi only had Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan 4. The boost from full power leveled out the gap between their normal Power Level, and even allowed him to eventually surpass Yamoshi in strength.
A year has passed; I wonder if Yamoshi has mastered any further transformations?
But so what if we lose our advantage in form? A temporary setback doesn't mean we'll always be behind.
The gap between his own normal combat strength and Yamoshi's normal combat strength has been constantly narrowing. One day, he will be able to surpass him!
Looking at Bardock's solemn expression, Goku couldn't help but sigh. Bardock wasn't sure if he could win, but he could tell the answer was no!
Bardock's normal Power Level is now 200 billion, and his strongest transformation is Super Saiyan 4 Full Power, after which his strength can reach the Divine Power Second Realm (50/400).
Keya Yamoshi's normal Power Level is the same as his own, and he can even transform into Leaking Blue, with a power boost equal to Super Saiyan 4 Full Power.
Therefore, the father was destined to lose.
However, Goku could deduce from their stats that they were both attempting to Super Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker.
That's right, his father also possessed the Super Saiyan God transformation, after all, there are precedents like Time Patrol Goku and Time Patrol Vegeta.
To comprehend Super Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker, one must achieve Super Saiyan 4 Full Power and Super Saiyan God. In this respect, it seems that his father is progressing faster.
" Supreme Kai of Time, Kakarot, Gine, I'm going to participate in the competition now!"
After saying that, Bardock slowly flew towards the arena through the passage above.
