Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Time flies by in the blink of an eye.

Before we knew it, it was already the second day.

Temple of Heaven.

Since arriving here yesterday, Bick has been staying here, meditating cross-legged.

He was waiting, waiting for that old guy, Sky God Piccolo, to make a decision.

For Sky God Piccolo, his emotions at this moment were very complicated.

Although this idea had long been brewing in his mind, he had never had the chance to say it aloud.

As a god of Earth, he knew very well what Earth needed now: not a god like himself, but powerful warriors.

After a day of deep thought, Sky God Piccolo finally made up his mind.

An aged figure slowly emerged from the Temple of the Gods and headed towards Piccolo's location.

Since they don't have much time left to live anyway, rather than dying such a humiliating death, they might as well reunite with Piccolo and become the complete Piccolo, so that Piccolo can continue to protect the Earth.

Sensing Piccolo's approach, Piccolo seemed to understand, opened his eyes, and slowly turned around.

"It seems you've come to your senses." Piccolo's expression was cold, and he didn't look like he was asking a god for help at all.

"If sacrificing myself can make the future of Earth better, then I, as a god, will have died a worthy death," God Piccolo said earnestly.

Then, he turned his gaze to Bobo beside him.

"Thank you for your care over the years, Popo. From now on, the Temple of Kami will depend on you to maintain it and choose a suitable successor to become the new Kami..." Kami Piccolo said to Popo.

"God..." Popo was heartbroken at this moment. He was reluctant to see the god Piccolo leave, but he was just a servant of the god and could not stop it or change anything.

"Since you've already made your decision, don't waste any more time. After assimilation, you will disappear completely. At that time, there will only be one Piccolo left in this world," Piccolo said coldly.

He was bound to feel some emotion, but he wouldn't show it in front of the god Piccolo.

"I know, I only hope that after you assimilate me, you can better protect the Earth and the Temple of the Gods... Let's begin..." As soon as he finished speaking, the God of the Gods waited for Piccolo to make his move.

Piccolo simply raised his hand and placed his palm on the shoulder of Celestial Piccolo.

The ability to assimilate is exerted.

The ancient body of Celestial Piccolo radiated a dazzling white light.

"Buzz~~! !"

With a blinding white light expanding, Piccolo and Celestial Piccolo merged into one.

When the light faded, Piccolo's posture remained unchanged, but his spirit and energy underwent a leap forward.

He felt the powerful energy that came with his complete self. This power was far greater than his former self, and it even gave him a feeling that he could overcome anything and was omnipotent.

But as soon as this thought was born in his mind, he ruthlessly extinguished it.

The path to becoming stronger is endless. Now that he has returned to his complete form, his strength has indeed increased significantly. However, there are always people stronger than him, and there are always higher realms to conquer. There may be many beings stronger than him.

Even if Talot, who comes from another time and space, were to face him now, he would be no match for him.

"But no matter what, the power after returning to wholeness is stronger than I imagined. Now, at least I don't need to fear the androids anymore," Piccolo murmured.

Popo wiped away his tears, looking at the newborn Bick, but didn't dare to greet him.

Seeing this, Bick smiled slightly at him.

Although assimilation was primarily Piccolo's consciousness, it was still somewhat influenced by King Piccolo's memories.

"My Lord God, you, you're still here..." Bobo was overjoyed to see this smile.

Piccolo shook his head slightly: "No! I am not Piccolo, nor am I a god... From now on, just call me Piccolo."

This is also a farewell to the past.

Having said that, Piccolo walked slowly toward the edge of the Temple of the Gods with heavy steps.

After assimilating the gods, he also gained their abilities; his eyes could observe anything that happened in the lower realm at will.

"There's something I think I need to do to ensure that Earth won't be thrown into chaos because of them in the future." Although Cell's threat is gone, the androids are still around.

Piccolo located the androids in the Nether and planned to go there to tell them the whole truth.

"Mr. Popo, I'll be relying on you to look after the Temple of the Gods for the foreseeable future. I think a suitable person will soon take over the position of God."

With that, Piccolo leaped down from the Temple of the Gods.

As Piccolo drove away, Bobo continued to wipe away her tears.

At this moment, Piccolo was unaware that after he and Kami became one, the Dragon Balls on Earth turned to stone.

Those who were absorbed by Cell had no chance of being resurrected.

……

Not long after.

It is located on a road in the southern suburbs.

Number 17 was driving, while numbers 18 and 16 were sitting in the car.

As artificial beings, they had finally awakened, but now they felt utterly lost.

I had all sorts of ideas, but for a moment I didn't know what to do or where to go.

Go find Sun Wukong?

They had considered it, after all, Dr. Gero had implanted instructions in their minds to kill Sun Wukong for revenge.

However, they were all instantly defeated by Talot, and they realized what it meant to be outmatched and to be in a world of great power.

Going to find Sun Wukong again now to see his skills is somewhat overestimating one's own abilities.

They spend too much time sleeping in hibernation pods, and they are unable to integrate into modern human society in a short period of time.

What should we do next?

Unlike the 17th and 18th, the 16th person had a very calm mindset.

For him, being able to connect with nature and live in harmony with its creatures is the life he has always dreamed of.

As for dealing with Sun Wukong, although it was Dr. Gero who gave the order, he had already modified it out of kindness.

Just as No. 17 was about to drive into Nandu, the energy detectors inside the three of them suddenly emitted a violent reaction.

Upon seeing this, Number 17 quickly parked the car on the side of the road.

The three of them got off the car one after another, looking up at the sky.

The one who came was Piccolo.

"It's him, the Namekian I defeated." Android 17 recognized Piccolo at a glance.

"That guy suddenly came looking for us? Could it be that he's here for revenge?" Number 18 frowned and said.

However, upon closer reflection, she felt that this was impossible. After all, the difference in strength was obvious, and that guy was no match for them at all. If they really fought, he would be defeated in one move.

As long as it's not that man, everyone else is insignificant.

Nearby, the burly Android 16 seemed to have detected something amiss.

This Bick seems different from the one they met a day ago.

Soon, Piccolo, high in the sky, accelerated and quickly descended in front of the three.

"You've come all this way to see us, surely not just to reminisce. What brings you here?" Number 17 asked, getting straight to the point.

"Then I'll get straight to the point." Piccolo told them everything about Cell without hesitation.

After learning about Cell, the ultimate android, Androids 17 and 18 had incredibly interesting expressions.

Even Android 16, who was indifferent to everything, underwent a subtle change in expression at this moment.

"So, Cell is already dead at that person's hands? Tch! How boring. If he were still alive, I'd like to test just how strong that so-called ultimate android really is." Android 17 was quite interested in Cell.

It's a pity he didn't have the chance to fight him.

"I never expected that old bastard Dr. Gero would create a homunculus like Cell to deal with us and try to devour us! Hmph! Now that he's dead, we don't need to worry about him anymore," Android 18 chimed in.

The incident happened somewhat suddenly, but now that she has received good news, she quickly came to terms with it.

"I've already told you about this, so now it's time to talk about the warnings I gave you... Although you don't act as recklessly as Androids 17 and 18 from Future Trunks' timeline, I still have to remind you a few things: don't kill innocent people indiscriminately, otherwise, a conflict between us will be inevitable," Piccolo added.

Hearing this, Number 17's lips curled up in a contemptuous smile. "You seem to have forgotten how you lost to me yesterday. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to say such harsh words to my face now..."

"I'm not here to fight you, this is just a friendly reminder. Besides, what you defeated before was only half of me, now I am whole again! I am no longer the person I was yesterday, and if I had known you were causing trouble on Earth, I would have come after you." Piccolo didn't intend to waste any more words with Android 17, nor did he want to take revenge for yesterday just because he was stronger, because there was no need.

Having seen a wider world, artificial humans have become a thing of the past.

Even if Frieza, the emperor of the universe, were to reappear before him, he would not approach him with a mocking attitude.

They set off and flew towards the Western Capital.

Numbers 17 and 18 were still in a daze, full of question marks.

"You're just a big talker. Even if you return to your original form, you'll be no different from before," Number 17 said with a displeased expression.

In his opinion, Piccolo was just talking big; he was clearly inferior to him and only knew how to spout nonsense.

If it weren't for that person, he wouldn't have let it go so easily.

Clearly, neither number 17 nor number 18 noticed Piccolo's change.

Number 16 on the side is different.

What he said might not be false.

Upon hearing this, numbers 17 and 18 were slightly surprised.

"You mean, he really has changed, and he's even better than me?" Number 17 asked, skeptical.

"According to my analysis, Piccolo's stats have changed significantly compared to yesterday. As for who is stronger between you and Piccolo, I don't know. We'll have to fight you two to find out," Number 16 replied truthfully.

"Number 16, you always speak so mysteriously. I really wonder how Dr. Groh created you, and your detector is even more advanced than ours." Number 17 didn't want to accept it, but Number 16 wasn't joking, so he could only make a sarcastic remark.

He would like to have a match with the opponent if he has the chance next time.

……

Western capital.

Universal Capsule Company.

After Talot won Bulma over yesterday, their relationship quickly heated up, almost to the point of being inseparable.

The main reason is that Talot knows Bulma too well.

Bulma, on the other hand, was like a newlywed, clinging to Talot and wanting to know him better.

Bulma was delighted, but Trunks from the future was completely devastated.

Ever since offending Talot yesterday and being stunned by Talot's aura, Future Trunks has been in a state of complete isolation.

The knot in his heart remained untied, which caused him to look extremely haggard.

When Vegeta of this world saw how fragile his future adopted son was, he was filled with rage.

As Vegeta's son, how could he be so fragile inside?! He's always so suicidal, acting like a woman, which makes his face ache.

Unable to bear it any longer, Vegeta didn't care about anything else and grabbed the awakened Trunks, giving him a severe beating.

If words are ineffective, then use fists and kicks to bring your son to his senses.

It did work; after Vegeta's beating and treatment, Future Trunks seemed to have indirectly come to his senses.

This time and space world is destined to be different from his original time and space world.

He was just a passerby, and there was no need for him to care too much about the changes in this world. In other words, if the changes were significant enough, it would avoid the tragic ending that would have occurred in the future.

Having arrived in this world, he should consider acquiring greater power to protect his original world.

Having thought things through, Trunks approached Talot and apologized for his impulsive actions the previous day.

Talot didn't care about this and just laughed it off.

It would be childish of him to argue with a child.

Bulma made a decision that shocked Talot: if Trunks wanted to in the future, he could also call her "Mom."

Although she is not his mother in this timeline, and he would not have been born.

Talott had expected Trunks to refuse, but to his surprise, Trunks shamelessly accepted.

Since things have come to this, this is the only way.

Just then, a figure suddenly flew in from the sky, and an extremely powerful aura also came head-on.

Talot and future Trunks's gazes were drawn to it.

"Is that Piccolo? It seems he has successfully persuaded the gods and returned to his complete self." Talot confirmed through his aura that the current Piccolo was no longer the same Piccolo as before.

"This aura is... Uncle Piccolo?!" Trunks exclaimed in surprise.

A short while later, the piccolo landed in front of them.

He came here to find Talot.

Having experienced Talot's methods firsthand, he knew that Talot had a way to send him to Namek.

"Congratulations, Piccolo, you've taken the most crucial step. How does it feel to have a complete body?" Talot chuckled, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Thanks to you, I persuaded the gods and regained my original power. Now, don't call me Piccolo anymore, just call me Piccolo." Piccolo smiled slightly and thanked Tarot. (End of Chapter)
