Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 243: War is a bad civilization, Master Bu, the miraculous doctor with amazing hands!

The Ex-Machinas do not know who created them, so they are neutral in this world and do not participate in the fight for the Star Grail among the followers of the other Old Deus.

The Ex-Machina's ability to analyze and copy is extremely terrifying. Even the 4th-order dragon race, Yanlong Dragon King and his subordinate dragons, were destroyed by the Ex-Machina because they provoked the Ex-Machina twelve years ago.

Therefore, if it is not necessary, no one from other races would want to provoke the Ex-Machinas, a race that is so powerful that it gets stronger the more it fights, and beating one of them would be like stirring up a hornet's nest.

Therefore, even the most common head of an Ex-Machina is a rare treasure that Jibril can hardly find.

"So, this is why you found a bunch of head parts in the waste room of the self-proliferation factory that we were going to recycle?"

"These are all the Ex-Machina heads that I carefully selected, especially your head. Look, I even rubbed a layer of anti-rust oil on it."

Jibril held the head parts that Hubi had replaced, looking like she treasured the broken mechanical head in her hands, which made Hubi a little at a loss for words.

"Wait, you're not going to take it from me?"

Jibril suddenly became alert and looked at Hubie with suspicion.

"I already have a new head."

After confirming that Rick would not be able to see the damage to his head, Hubie called the two and said, "Come with me. My husband is waiting for you inside."

Hubie turned and walked into the somewhat dark cave, and Broly and Jibril, who was carrying a pile of scrap metal, followed her inside.

The dark environment did not cause any impact on the people present, and after turning a curved bend, Broly saw some light in front of him.

The source of the light was some mosses attached to the rock wall, which were emitting some faint light. Of course, the point was not this. The point was that Broly saw the mushrooms picked by the Ex-Machina yesterday under the moss on the rock wall.

“Cave moss, that’s what we humans call it. It’s one of the few plants that can grow normally in this cruel world. It emits light by absorbing the spirit power in the soil.

The light they emit can provide the necessary growth environment for some crops that can grow rapidly with only dim light.

However, cave moss itself is not edible, at least not by us humans..."

Seeing the boy leaning over to the rock wall to look at the moss, Rick came over and introduced that it was because of the existence of cave moss that humans could survive in this world with difficulty by relying on some low-light crops.

"I'm Rick, Hubie's husband."

The young man introduced himself.

"Broly."

Broly also introduced himself, then picked up the mushroom from under the rock wall and stuffed it into his own personal space in front of the person who might have grown the mushrooms.

"It's nice to meet you, and thank you for your help to my wife Hubie."

Rick continued.

"You're welcome, but I'm not exactly happy to see you. If it weren't for you, your wife would probably be mine."

Broly didn't have any hostility towards Riku, a stranger he just met, but he didn't treat him well either.

"You really know how to joke."

"I'm not kidding. If killing you wasn't useless, you would be dead now."

The expression on Rick's face was a little stiff. The Saiyan boy's words were too blunt and rude, making it difficult for a weak human like him who needed to use his brain to respond.

"Then I should feel lucky."

After thinking about it, Rick teased himself.

"You should be thankful."

Broly nodded seriously, agreeing with Riku's words, that Hubie and he were not true love.

"Broly, are you hungry? Why don't we eat first?"

Hubie interrupted the somewhat awkward conversation.

"it is good."

Broly's attention was diverted at once, and the expectant look on his face faded a little until he saw the food the couple offered him.

There were grilled mushrooms, unknown dried fruits, and roots of some plants. There was not a single piece of meat on the entire stone table, not even any soup.

"I'm sorry, we are short of supplies here. These are the only things we can offer to our savior."

Rick expressed his apologies.

“It tastes pretty good.”

Broly tasted them and found that they tasted okay, but he still preferred meat.

"However, when the world is at peace in the future, we will definitely treat you with something better."

Rick said again.

"Ah."

Broly responded, but without much expectation, because in four days, he would say goodbye to this world.

[This topic is a bit difficult to choose! ]

Rick sighed and decided to be blunt.

"Sir Broly, I wonder what your clan thinks of the current situation in the world?"

Rick asked directly, and from Hubie's mouth, he learned some information about the boy.

Although I have never heard of Saiyans, I imagine they are a powerful race since they were able to defeat the Flügel.

"You ask me?"

Broly, who was eating dried fruits, looked at the one-armed young man next to him with some confusion.

"Correct."

Rick nodded.

Broly scratched his head, somewhat confused by the question.

He is not from this world, and he has just arrived in this world. What can he think of this world?

It was a bit too strange to ask him this question.

However, if you really want to say something, Broly can really say it.

"There are too few types of food in your world, and the weather doesn't seem to be very good either."

Broly speaks the truth.

Rick: "..."

He wanted to talk about the long war for the authority of the only god, which was waged by the gods and their followers, but he was answered that there was a shortage of food and the weather was bad.

“There is no other way. In order to fight for the authority of the only God, the gods started a long war, which led to the complete collapse of the original ecology of this world.

Nowadays, just living is a very difficult thing. In the past, many common biological species that could be made into delicacies have long been extinct in endless wars. "

Rick forced the topic to be changed to the war, and the delicacies he was talking about were just some wonderful stories passed down by word of mouth among the human race. He himself had never seen them, let alone tasted them.

However, Rick had a look of regret, as if he had once eaten those delicacies and was sighing over the extinction of the species that made those delicacies.

"War will cause delicious food to disappear?"

Riku's performance made Broly believe it.

“War is a bad civilization.”

King Attila's sentence came to Broly's mind, and he said it directly.

[Bad civilization? This should mean to express dislike, right? ]

Rick thought about it, then nodded and continued, "I think so too. War is a bad civilization, so I want to end war."

After he finished speaking, the scene fell silent again, leaving only the sound of Broly eating. Riku felt helpless and could only continue speaking: "It just so happens that I have a plan to end the long war. I wonder if Your Excellency is willing to help us?"

"End the war and you'll have good food to eat."

Hubie added a sentence at the end, and this sentence was very effective.

"I am willing to help you."

Broly stated without asking what the plan was.

"No, you don't ask what my plan is?"

Rick couldn't help but complain.

How could a normal person react like the boy in front of him? Shouldn't he be curious and want to know what's going on?
"Oh, so what's the plan?"

Broly suddenly felt that Riku was a performing artist, just like Master Aqua who needed someone to support him when he was performing a talent show, so he went along with it and supported him.

"All the wars in the world are caused by the authority of the One God. If we want to end the war as soon as possible, we only need to decide on the One God..."

Rick spread out the map he had prepared long ago and began to tell his plan from beginning to end, but this plan was just a plan that needed to be told now, not the real plan.

“We do this by informing the rest of the race about the strategies of the enemy race, thereby creating anxiety and suspicion…

After unremitting efforts, we have now gathered together the most powerful race in the world that is most likely to obtain the only divine authority [Star Grail]...

The relationship between the two major alliances in the confrontation area, the elves and the dwarves as the leaders of the alliance, is extremely bad.

I'm afraid that just imitating the tactics of one side and launching a preemptive attack on the other side would trigger a war between them.

Of course, the Flügel are high above, and there are gods behind them. Once the war between the Elfs and the Dwarfs breaks out, these two races will not let the Flügel, who are stronger than them, watch the battle, and will definitely drag the Flügel into the war. According to the information I have, the Dwarfs developed the Marrow Bomb, a terrifying weapon that can destroy a continent with one shot, and the Elves developed the Void Zeroth Art for group army operations..."

“Wow, that’s amazing~”

Riku was talking about the strongest trump cards of the Dwarves and the Elves, while Broly was cooperating with an amazed expression.

But in fact, he didn't listen carefully at all. He just cooperated with Rick's narration and echoed him.

“As a deity, the God of War is definitely the enemy that the two alliances fear the most. The Dwarves and Elves will definitely use their trump cards against the God of War.

By then, no matter which side wins, the war will be over, ahem..."

Riku started to cough, and when he realized that he was a little weak, he stopped talking and asked, "Well, Broly, what do you think of our plan?"

"good, very good!"

Broly responded without even raising his head while chewing on a stem of an unknown plant.

[Can you be more perfunctory in your attitude? ]

Rick wanted to complain, but the answer from the man who saved his wife wasn't important. He mainly wanted to know how the Flügel captives next to him would react after hearing this fake plan.

However, to Riku's disappointment, the little girl-like Flügel was just focused on eating, just like Broly.

Dependents are extensions of the gods, and the reactions of the dependents can sometimes represent the reactions of the gods.

"Miss Flügel, the captive one next to you, aren't you worried about your own God?"

Riku took a sip of water and took a breath before asking Jibril.

“What am I worried about? Are you worried that those stupid races you tricked into Avant Heim might use their self-righteous means to challenge Artosh-sama and succeed?”

Jibril did listen to Riku's plan, but she treated it as a joke.

"You are a monkey who has not evolved and cannot even use your spirit power. Stop looking at Artosh-sama with your narrow-minded view of an inferior creature."

Broly stopped eating and looked at his monkey tail. He suddenly felt as if Jibril was somehow slandering him.

"Master Artosh is the most powerful God. The elves and dwarves, no matter what means they possess, are just ignorant creatures who do not know their own limitations."

Confidence is the pinnacle. Artosh's confidence is reflected in the attitude of the Flügel, who dare to treat other Old Deus as prey, and their arrogant attitude is evident.

"If your God is so powerful, why hasn't the war in this world ended?"

It's not that Rick knows nothing about the God of War. On the contrary, he knows the strength and style of the God behind the Flügel through Hubie, and this question is also what puzzles him.

The Flügel race and their gods clearly have power that surpasses that of other races, but they have no intention of taking the initiative to end this war.

"It's not over yet, that's because Master Artosh is not interested in the authority of the One God. If he was interested, this battle for the authority of the One God would have ended long ago."

Jibril's answer made Riku a little surprised.

Then came anger, and then relief.

The high and mighty God would not care about the life and death of tiny ants.

"So that's it."

Rick smiled on the surface, but his only remaining right hand was clenched into a fist.

In the battle for the sole authority of God, the war god behind the Flügel race behaved in an arrogant manner.

He clearly had the power to end the war and obtain the authority of the One God, but he ignored it.

This explains why the war between the gods and their followers could not be ended.

The God of War, who has the power to overcome all obstacles and obtain the authority of the One God, disdains the authority of the One God. However, other gods who care about this authority and want to obtain this authority may not be able to overcome all obstacles because of the existence of the God of War.

The God of War himself is the biggest obstacle to world peace. If we don't overcome Him and defeat Him, the war in this world will never end.

But it is extremely difficult to defeat the God of War. According to the information provided by Hubie, the God of War is the most powerful god.

However, this concept of "strongest" is extremely unreasonable. No matter how powerful a being is in the world, the God of War who possesses this concept will always be stronger than the second strongest person. The increase or decrease in the power of the strong people in the world has no meaning to the God of War.

[A war god who holds the invincible concept of [the strongest] would not evade attacks from the weak, but would crush them with a stronger force.]

Rick had a fire burning in his heart.

"Hubby, after this planet is penetrated, the spirit corridors in the atmosphere will stop functioning. At that time, even the gods will temporarily lose their power. Is this true?"

After sending Broly and Jibril away, Riku asked Hubie this question.

"To be precise, this can only temporarily make the gods lose the ability to manipulate the vast spiritual power of the world, but the spiritual power that the gods themselves possess can still be used, but it has been greatly weakened."

Hubie answered the question and Rick felt relieved.

The concept of the God of War is indeed invincible, but in this game to determine the only God, the victory condition is not to defeat the God of War, but to get the Star Cup.

He is not a god, but just a weak human struggling to survive. He will not play this game according to the rules of the gods.

As the weakest, Rick wants to steal the chicken to win and end the war.

"Cough cough~"

Suddenly, Rick started coughing violently.

"Rick!"

Hubie shouted nervously.

"I am fine."

Rick took his hand away from his mouth, which was covered in blood, but he comforted Hubie.

But he knew that he was about to die, so he had to hurry up and start this final war directly after completing the layout of the Ex-Machina.

By then, when the war is over, even if he dies, he will be able to die peacefully.

Rick couldn't help but burst into tears at the thought of death.

Damn it, he didn't want to die at all. There were still people in this world who cared about him and he cared about them too.

Having experienced many separations and deaths, Rick realized how much harm his own death would bring to those who care about him.

He wants to live, but is there a way?

Maybe after getting the Star Cup, he can live.

But can he really win the Star Cup?
In other words, can I really survive after obtaining the Star Cup?
The only God, it sounds so powerful, but who knows what he is like in detail?
Even as a weak human being, is he qualified to touch God's things?

Countless thoughts flooded the weak Rick's mind.

Even Rick couldn't stop his wild thoughts.

"Rick, don't worry, I know someone who can help you."

Hubie looked at Riku anxiously, and suddenly thought of Broly's attempted treatment of him yesterday.

Although it has no effect on herself, it is because she is an Ex-Machina.

And the treatment that didn't work for him might be able to help Rick.

Hubie was desperate and tried all kinds of treatments, but she did not go to the wrong doctor.

Broly, who had eaten and drunk his fill, left and was invited back.

Looking at the extremely weak Riku on the stone bed, Broly suddenly had a bold idea and asked Hubie: "If he died like this, would you consider becoming my wife?"

"No, I will only die with Rick."

Without even a second of hesitation, Hubie answered.

Broly was a little disappointed. His bold idea was shattered, so he could only face the reality.

Rick treated him to a meal, and although it wasn't very sumptuous, he remembered it.

Broly used his Qi to condense a ball of life energy and injected it into Rick's body.

Rick, who was semi-conscious on the bed, began to tremble.

The humans in this world do not have elven corridors in their bodies. If they are corroded too much by the dead, they will die a slow death.

But now, the corroded and necrotic parts of Rick's body have come back to life, just like a long-drought rain, and the dead trees have come back to life.

The corrosive power of the corpses, which was filled with death, could not resist the expulsion of the huge life energy injected by Broly.

Rick sat up all of a sudden, as if he was dying of an illness and as soon as he sat up, his illness was cured.

"Okay, but there's nothing I can do about the severed hands and eyes."

Doctor Bu felt Rick's breath and confirmed that he had transformed from a candle in the wind to a raging fireplace. He then spread his hands to Hubie to indicate that there was nothing he could do about his injuries.

In the previous world, when Broly was studying under Master Aqua, he didn't learn any healing techniques. I think he should have learned a thing or two at that time.

Hubie: “…”

Rick's hands and eyes, she chopped and dug.

Rick: "..."

It was you who asked Hubie to chop and dig out your own hands and eyes.

"grass!"

　I'm not lazy, I just want to write more
