Goku was taken aback by what the East Supreme Kai said, but then he realized that the timing was just right and understood.
He slowly got up from the ground, and with a relaxed and carefree expression, he contacted the East Supreme Kai.
"Shin, leave it to me. Babidi and Majin Buu can't cause any trouble."
"Thank you very much, Goku."
"Haha, no need to thank me, I'll chat some more now."
Goku unilaterally hung up the communication, then looked at Vegeta.
" Vegeta, are you going to participate in the 29th World Martial Arts Tournament? I will participate, and of course, Gohan and Aku will participate too."
(Why the 29th? The explanation will follow later.)
If he remembers correctly, the World Martial Arts Tournament should be held in the next few days.
"Hmm? The World Martial Arts Tournament? Kakarot, you mean the kind you participated in before?"
Vegeta opened his eyes, waking from his meditative state, and looked at Goku with a slight frown.
Having lived on Earth for so many years, he had naturally heard of the World Martial Arts Tournament.
"Yes, that's it." Goku nodded in affirmation.
" Kakarot, why did you suddenly want to participate in that kind of competition?"
Vegeta was utterly baffled. What was the point of participating in a tournament where even the strongest fighters on Earth only had Power Level of a few hundred points?
Why would Kakarot suddenly become interested?
"Because something interesting will happen then," Goku said with a mysterious smile.
Isn't Majin Buu interesting? It's just that it might be a bit out of sync with the current power levels.
"Give me a straight answer, are you going or not, Vegeta?"
"Go!"
Vegeta agreed almost without thinking. They were all going, how could he not go? It was a rare opportunity for them to spar with each other.
He wanted to see just how big the gap was between him and Gohan!
As for Kakarot, he has already experienced the gap during this year.
It's so big it's despair-inducing!
However, he would not give up; he believed that he would catch up one day!
"Hehe, Vegeta, the World Martial Arts Tournament has a junior division." Goku raised an eyebrow at Vegeta.
His meaning was already self-evident.
"You mean?"
"That's right, let Goten and Trunks go too, and see who's stronger. They've received similar training."
Goku plans to have Goten and Trunks participate in the junior group, but as for Bulla and Koi, he'll pass, since it wouldn't be good for girls to be involved in fighting in his memories.
And if Bulla really gets involved, the championship will be a foregone conclusion; Goten and Trunks wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Bulla, their little sister.
They'll probably just hand over the championship.
"Hmph! Trunks will definitely be the Trunks!" Vegeta sneered, arms crossed.
Goku smiled and looked at Vegeta silently.
From this perspective, Vegeta definitely didn't know the three kids' strength, and might not even know that they could already transform into Super Saiyan.
Goku is really looking forward to the scene when Vegeta sees all three of them transform.
They put in a lot of effort to transform into Super Saiyan back then, but it seemed like Gohan had it all very easy.
That's the advantage of being born into a good family.
Our parents have already endured all the hardships they were meant to suffer.
Currently, the three members' base values are roughly around 80 million, with Goten slightly exceeding that, Bulla around the same level, Trunks slightly below.
No, we also need to add one who's a year younger than them and plays with them often —Koi's 5 million.
Perhaps because the Saiyan bloodline in his body has become much thinner, Koi strength has increased much more slowly.
The three kids' Power Level is about the same as Gohan's when he was eight years old, but you have to know that the three of them started training much earlier than Gohan.
Gohan started training when he was 4 years old, while the three little ones started training when they were almost 3 years old.
This year or so is enough time for Gohan to double his Power Level again.
Furthermore, Gohan's teaching abilities as a child are vastly different from those of Gohan now.
The three kids enjoyed far better conditions than Gohan, which reflects the difference in their talent and potential.
After returning to Earth and having dinner that day, Goku found the three little ones and explained his thoughts.
"What?! Dad, why won't you let Koi and me participate?" Bulla shook Goku's arm in a slightly spoiled manner.
"Haha, don't you think that if you participated, the championship would be a foregone conclusion? Goten and Trunks would definitely let you win!" Goku gently stroked Bulla's blue hair.
"Okay~" Bulla said dejectedly, looking downcast.
" Bulla, don't be sad. How about Dad takes you and Goten to the amusement park after the World Martial Arts Tournament?" Goku comforted Bulla.
I feel a little guilty towards Goten and Bulla Goku, because compared to Gohan, I really haven't spent enough time with them.
This is a good opportunity.
"Really? Daddy, you promised! You're a dog if you lie!" Bulla's eyes lit up instantly.
The last time Dad took them out to play was a long time ago.
"Yeah, I'd be a dog if I lied."
Seeing Goku, Bulla, and Goten enjoying themselves so much, Trunks couldn't help but feel a little envious.
His father had never taken him to an amusement park before, and of course, given his father's personality, he didn't hold out much hope.
Just then, Goku saw Vegeta approaching.
"Hey, Vegeta, what brings you here?" Goku greeted him, a hint of curiosity in his voice.
Vegeta has never actively sought out the three little ones—no, I should say he's sought out Trunks— over all these years.
"They're here to see Trunks."
"What? Dad, you were looking for me?" Trunks was overjoyed.
He never imagined that his father would one day take the initiative to contact him.
"Come with me, I'll take you to special training." With that, Vegeta turned around, leaving everyone with only his back to him, and slowly walked away into the distance.
"Uncle Goku, Goten, Bulla, I'm off!" Trunks said goodbye and quickly followed Vegeta.
"This Vegeta... I hope he won't be scared when the time comes." Goku looked at the two figures, one big and one small, with a mischievous grin on his face.
Vegeta and Trunks entered the gravity chamber, but they did not activate the gravity.
" Trunks, use all your power to attack me!" Vegeta stood in front of Trunks, arms crossed, and said smugly.
"All your strength, Dad?"
"Stop talking nonsense and use all your strength."
Vegeta's aura solidified, Trunks was so frightened that he took a step back.
"Okay... okay, Dad!" Trunks swallowed hard and quickly began to gather the power within his body.
"Ha!!!"
White flames erupted from Trunks' body, while Vegeta nodded beside him with a slight smile.
not bad!
Wait! That color of aura, that surging power, could it be...?
The next second, a look of surprise filled Vegeta's eyes.
He's only 8 years old? Gohan wasn't even that old back then!
The pressure Gohan exerted on Vegeta even made him subconsciously overlook the Gohan could transform into Super Saiyan at the age of 6.
Thinking about this, Vegeta could accept it, after all, there was the precedent of Gohan.
If Kakarot's son can do it, why can't my own son?
