Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Chapter 377 The Warriors' Strength

Talot naturally didn't take Bardock's polite words seriously.

To be honest, with the High Priest's guidance, Talot now had a clearer understanding of time.

After all, 17 years had passed in his main timeline, but in reality, he had only been traveling outside for a few years.

Even after parting ways with Bardock, he only experienced several parallel universes. How long did that add up to?

"Talot!"

Just as Talot and Bardock were exchanging glances, Raditz stepped forward, his eyes gleaming, revealing a long-lost emotion.

This feeling is quite special; it contains joy, excitement, and even melancholy, a sense of helplessness in the face of time.

"Raditz! You've improved quite a bit in strength over the years," Talot said with a smile.

He looked from head to toe, then from bottom to top, and finally made eye contact with Raditz.

It has to be said that it really shocked him. Judging from the strength of the aura alone, Raditz's strength is definitely not weaker than Bardock's at present.

Their normal combat capability is at least 1000 Kyoto.

And this is just the surface combat power. If it were to really unleash its power, it could even reach the level of a Gai, definitely the limit of the sixth dimension!

Looking back when he left, Raditz's normal combat power was only 3 million.

Seventeen years is indeed a long time; a lot can change in that time. And seven years ago, Bardock's return further agitated everyone in the world.

It would be unreasonable if it didn't become this strong.

Of course, overall it still shocked Talot, because Serari's normal combat power was only 1000 billion.

Talot's original idea was that even if the giants in this world were incredibly powerful, they would only normally reach the level of a fifth-dimensional trillion.

If you know the original storyline, at the beginning of the Majin Buu arc, his normal fighting power was at most a few billion.

In conclusion, it cannot be compared to the speed at which his strength has improved.

Cultivating step by step in one's native time and space, without many enemies to bring enough pressure, means that the speed at which one becomes stronger is definitely limited.

Talot traveled extensively, experiencing numerous battles and constantly encountering higher-level powers, resulting in a breakthrough speed that even he himself could not have imagined.

In terms of normal combat power alone, it had at least reached the pinnacle of the eighth dimension—no! That was before the Tournament of Power!

This should now be the unit of the ninth dimension, Rang.

Thanks to his battle against Jiren in the Tournament of Power, he underwent a tremendous transformation and breakthrough, achieving a further evolution in his life form that allowed him to reach unprecedented heights.

"Tch~! You're still as good at putting people down as ever. Looks like the Talot I know." Raditz smiled.

Their simple conversation rekindled the feeling they had shared in the past.

"Brother Tarot, welcome back." Sun Wukong also came over and spoke.

He has always been regarded as the older brother since childhood, even though there is no blood relation, but this relationship is recognized by him.

"Hmm, you've become this strong, kid? Seventeen years have passed, and you've matured quite a bit," Talot said jokingly.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong rubbed his nose, seemingly embarrassed, yet also eager to show off.

Talot had already ascertained his strength; like Raditz, he was at least at the level of a sixth-dimensional being.

Perhaps not as good as Raditz, but judging from the current situation, he has probably already mastered even Super Saiyan 4.

Otherwise, the aura wouldn't be so strong.

After exchanging a few more words with Sun Wukong, the others gradually came forward to greet him.

They are Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Master Roshi and his crew, and of course, the warriors' families.

Naba was also quite unexpected to Talot. He never thought that this guy would have a son so late in life, and the little guy's potential was quite remarkable, at least much stronger than they were back then.

To put it simply, if Frieza, the Emperor of the Universe, were to cause trouble in this era, Nappa's son Draco alone would be enough to kill him.

Even if Frieza were here, Cell would have to kneel down.

At less than ten years old, his combat power is already 100 billion, almost comparable to Naba.

Talot could understand that Naba wasn't very strong, after all, he was the oldest among them, and it was normal for him to enter retirement mode early.

To be honest, Talot could guess some of the reasons.

These fathers, to a certain extent, broke through to a certain level of skill.

The resulting leap in life level after the increase in strength leads to stronger genetic potential in offspring.

So even though Nappa's strength only increased to 50 billion, he still reached the level of a Super Saiyan. Therefore, his son had extraordinary potential from birth and was able to reach 10 billion power at the age of ten.

Given time, they will become stronger. After all, ten years old is just the beginning for a Saiyan; they are still very young.

After Nappa, Tarot faced off against Vegeta.

This prince is as arrogant as ever...

No! Because over the years, he seems to have regained his lost self-esteem, thus becoming even more arrogant, and no longer feeling the resentment of being suppressed when facing him.

He was probably eager to show off the results of his years of cultivation and find his ultimate sense of existence from him.

"What a pity. Even if their combat power reaches the sixth-dimensional level, it's nothing to me." Talot thought to himself.

Of course, you might think this in your heart, but you won't express it outwardly.

If they all want to fight him next, he wouldn't mind fighting them once, just to have some fun with them.

After all, if he were serious, he could crush everyone's fighting spirit even without transforming.

It's worth mentioning Vegeta's son, Trunks.

Talot once thought that if he and Bulma got together, Trunks would cease to exist.

Talos, whose son was born with blue hair, was initially questioned by Talos, but now it seems that it was simply due to Bulma's genes.

Trunks also has blue hair, which is due to his mother's genes, which also result in blue hair.

Talot vaguely remembered Trunks' performance in the Majin Buu Saga in the original work, and now it seems that his fighting power was a full 60 billion points, which was indeed extraordinary.

It's probably because Vegeta has been training Trunks for years.

Even if he can't compare to Naba's son, Dre, Trunks is much younger. If Trunks were ten years old, he'd probably be worth over 10 billion...

Then there's Sun Wukong's second son, Sun Wutian, who is much weaker, with a normal combat power of only 30 billion. This is probably because he was raised in a free-range manner. But it has to be said that these little guys are all little monsters.

After chatting with everyone for a few minutes, Talot walked out of the crowd and went to the other side.

Talott found the somewhat unsociable Broly and also saw Broly's daughter, Millie.

Seeing how well this guy was living on Earth, with a wife and daughter, Talot was quite moved.

Ultimately, Talott never expected Broly to be grateful to him.

Talot was also shocked by Broly's strength. He was not shocked by how much stronger Broly had become, but by the fact that his aura was only at the trillion level, which was quite unexpected.

I wonder how this guy has managed all these years.

However, how one lives is their own choice.

Talot also gained a deeper understanding of Broly's daughter, Mimi. She had indeed inherited Broly's talent and potential, and seemed to have a Transcendent Factor within her. However, she was very timid, much like Kale from Universe 6.

After talking with him, Talot came over to greet King Kai and told him about seeing him in other timelines before speaking to the other Kings.

In Tarot's heart, the North King's position was secure.

At least Talot always regarded him as a guide.

King North was also very proud and happy. He had always been proud of this, believing that this disciple he had taken in had truly brought him honor.

He even fought Beerus, the God of Destruction, in another timeline, which can be considered revenge for him.

"You little rascal, now even this old man is completely beyond my comprehension." The Old Kaioshin looked at Talot and expressed his most straightforward feelings.

Talot replied with a smile, "After all, I have never stopped moving forward. It would be too embarrassing if I hadn't made any progress after all these years."

Old Kaioshin chuckled at Tarot's answer and said nothing more.

At this moment, the Old Kaioshin remembered that he had once plotted against Talot, but in the end, he was the one who plotted against himself and lost his life.

If he had received unreserved guidance and instruction back then, he would be on par with the North King, and at the very least, Talot would definitely have placed him at the top of his heart.

To be the number one master in the entire universe, how prestigious is that?!

Talot didn't linger there and quickly strode towards the very edge.

There are my original friends there, visitors from Namek.

"Long time no see! Lagar, Neru, and Bick, and this is Dandy, right?" Talot greeted them one by one, finally fixing his gaze on Dandy.

This little guy exudes a divine aura, so he must have become a god on Earth.

Many things have happened on Earth over the years, but the overall development is still moving in the direction of the original story. Therefore, Piccolo must have merged with King Piccolo during the Android incident seven years ago, which is why Dende became King Piccolo on Earth.

"Hello, Brother Talot," Dandy greeted politely.

Talot nodded, then looked at Ragal.

Lagar looked at Talot with a smile: "It's good that you're back. Although seventeen years isn't a long time for Namekians, you really made us worry for a long time."

"Thank you for your trouble. I heard from Bulma and Serari that we've also benefited from your help over the years," Talot said gratefully.

"Let's skip the formalities. Given our relationship, there's no need for such politeness." Ragal didn't mind. Recalling the past, he added, "After all, compared to what we've done, the help you gave to Namek back then is what we should remember for the rest of our lives."

The two looked at each other and smiled, then burst into laughter.

Expressing emotions from the heart, without any affectation.

"Over the years, your strength has improved a lot. It seems that you have reached the pinnacle of developing the power of the Dragon God. Even I can't see through your strength." Talot added a suitable compliment.

Mutual recognition of each other's strength is also necessary.

Not only against Lagar, but also against Bik and Neru.

Looking back at the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, Ragal's combat power was around 500 to 600 million, Nail's was 45 million, and Piccolo's was 70 million.

The three of them, just by their outward appearance, possess an aura of sixth-dimensional strength.

Therefore, based on the current situation in the main timeline, everyone has already entered the units of the capital.

Based on the power levels in the original work, strictly speaking, the power they currently possess should correspond to the power levels of Goku and Vegeta in the early stages of the Advanced Era.

"I can sense that we are far behind you, so there's no need for you to flatter us," Ragal replied with a smile.

There's definitely some resentment, but losing to Talot won't cause Ragal too much negative emotion.

From the very beginning, Talot's strength has always surpassed that of everyone else.

Talot continued communicating with Ragal for a while, and also exchanged words with the new students Piccolo and Neru.

Piccolo and Naru both held Talot in high esteem.

After all, they were able to grow up thanks to Talot; otherwise, they wouldn't be who they are today.

Piccolo, in particular, vividly remembered Talot's guidance to him.

Although he assimilated with the god Piccolo and gained more information, his gratitude was profound.

After briefly meeting with everyone, Talot returned to the center and spoke with Serari and Bulma.

The ones we haven't seen yet are those younger generation members.

His own daughter and son, Son Gohan, the son of Sun Wukong, and Trepp, the son of Raditz.

And of course, there's Videl, Satan's daughter.

This Videl is going to be his daughter-in-law. Although he knows Videl from the original story, Talot still needs to know what kind of girl Videl is in his timeline and whether she is suitable for his son.

His gaze turned towards the outside of the manor, but his divine sense had already detected the situation outside.

Talot simply didn't say anything, nor did he take any initiative to do anything.

He is waiting, waiting for his children to come home.

Some people could roughly guess who else hadn't arrived yet, but no one spoke; they simply stayed quietly and waited together.

A long time passed, and the banquet had already begun after Bulma's announcement.

Serari and Bulma stepped forward with concern, worried that Talot would be unhappy, so they wanted to offer some explanation.

Before they could even speak, they saw several young people walking towards them from a distance.

Leading the group were Tarola and Talos, followed by Gohan, Trepp, and Videl.
