Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Within this fantastical time corridor, there exists not only terrifyingly powerful laws, but also the constraints of established rules.

With each step Talot takes forward, he transforms into a new form.

Super Saiyan Stage 1.

Super Saiyan 2.

Super Saiyan 3rd Stage.

Super Saiyan 4th Stage.

Super Saiyan 5th Stage.

……

Super Saiyan God.

Super Saiyan Blue.

Super Saiyan Blue Stage 2.

Super Saiyan Blue Stage 3.

……

To reach the pinnacle of self-improvement.

Reaching the pinnacle of freedom and ultimate mastery.

The dual meaning of freedom and self.

Super Five: The Ultimate State of Freedom and Self-Mastery!

……

Unbeknownst to me, the trajectory of time seemed to have transformed into countless lines as I changed, each containing countless different versions of myself, all moving through time.

This feeling is as if one is not experiencing life as one moves forward, but rather as if one's life is being sliced ​​up, and one is simply tracing the past and exploring the future.

The mysteries of time are endless.

At this moment, Talot experienced a feeling he had never felt before; he was in harmony with time, and time was giving him a feeling he had never felt before.

I don't know how much time has passed; it felt like a minute, an hour, a day, a year, and yet, a fleeting moment...

Bathed in the shroud of time, Talot's own understanding of the laws underwent a transformation. As he comprehended a deeper level of the supreme laws of time, everything seemed to return to its origin, as if nothing had happened and nothing had changed.

"Is this the time that belongs to me?"

Looking ahead, guided by time, Talot found the time that truly belonged to him.

In an instant, it seems as if one has a godlike perspective, able to see one's entire life, yet remain untouchable.

"What has already happened cannot be easily changed under the constraints of the rules... or rather, I am powerful enough that even I cannot interfere with my past self."

Talot muttered to himself as he walked forward.

The scenes of my life in this lifetime play in reverse, and each time I see everything I've done and experienced in the past, I have a different feeling, all the way back to my childhood on Planet Vegeta...

"Looking back, I realize that I was so scheming and indecisive in the past..." Talot said with a mix of amusement and exasperation.

When I wasn't strong enough, I would think things through carefully before doing anything, and after determining the best solution, I would make countless preparations.

Ultimately, it's all about being able to live a better life.

Looking back, how could I have imagined that I would one day become so powerful, or that I would see my past self in this way?

Trapped in the flow of time, Talot returned to the hillside where he had started.

He stood before his younger self.

At that moment, I was just a little kid, playing with the combat power detector in my hand.

If I remember correctly, this should be an upgraded version of the combat power detector.

"Beep beep beep... beep beep beep..."

Combat Power Index: 990 points

"This is the Combat Power Detector 2.0? It's more accurate and has more complete functions than the first generation detector."

"In the future, if I want to avoid revealing my full strength, I will have to use more mental energy to suppress the fluctuations in my aura."

"We need to take our control of Qi to a new level."

Hearing the familiar words, Talot smiled from the bottom of his heart.

He can hear his younger self speaking, and he can face himself in time, but his younger self will not know.

Watching his younger self hesitate for a long time before heading down the mountain, Talot suddenly had a whimsical idea.

Although I cannot interfere with my past self, I can transmit an invisible message through the power of the supreme laws of time.

I remember when I was going down the mountain, I suddenly felt an extremely incredible sensation.

"I never expected that it would be myself that released this aura... I thought it was the God of Destruction and the angels descending. So everything happens for a reason. By doing this, I have completed the loop and sounded the alarm for myself during this period, which led to everything I have experienced..." Talot thought to himself.

As he watched his younger self, terrified and stunned, drift away while muttering to himself, Talot no longer lingered in that moment.

With a wave of his hand, time continued to flow backward, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for him to be in the incubation chamber.

I was just born, and I met my parents in this life...

【How exactly did I come to be here?】 Talot paused at the moment of his birth, carefully contemplating the situation.

There is no concept of time here, yet time does exist.

After an unknown amount of time, Talot opened his eyes in a daze.

Everything seemed predetermined; he couldn't find any reason for it.

He was clearly a transmigrator from the present world who came with his memories, yet he seemed to have appeared out of thin air.

"So this is what you meant by not being able to trace back to the past beyond this world, so even you can't really explore it..." Talot murmured.

It seems I've already gotten the answer I wanted; it's just that I'm not strong enough to delve any deeper.

Looking back now, I continue to gaze upon the times I have experienced.

Scene after scene, event after event... it's like looking back, yet also like moving forward with time.

From birth, I walked the path I had already walked before, and I walked it all again.

In the end, Talot returned to where he started, where the High Priest was waiting for him to turn around.

That's right!

This is what the High Priest meant by turning back.

Sometimes, you may not even realize that what seems like moving forward is actually taking a step back to go with the flow, and what awaits you is a brand new and unknown future.

"You knew all along that this would be the outcome." Facing the High Priest, Talot no longer concealed anything.

At this moment, he already understood the High Priest's deeper meaning.

Clearly, the High Priest had always known; he just hadn't said anything.

Use time as a guide to let him find the answer himself.

"There are some things that you will always feel resentful if you don't experience them yourself... Now that you have experienced them, you will know... When you are strong enough, strong enough to truly transcend everything, you may be able to explore the source of the world, that ultimate that exists in the unknown..." the High Priest laughed.

"The ultimate unknown...?" Talot murmured.

Having gained some insight, Talot sat down cross-legged in the river of time, allowing the power of time to wash over him and cleanse him.

The high priest was surprised for a moment, then gave a meaningful smile.

"You are indeed very special. Your arrival has brought about changes to this world, even affecting all of time and space... After you complete your breakthrough, you can go and meet a very special being. He may be able to give you more guidance." After saying this, the High Priest looked towards the end of time.

It seems to have an endless past, with no end in sight, but beings like him can see the beginning of that end of time.
