Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Chapter 90 Back to Earth! Raditz and Kakarot

Having lost contact with King Kai, Talot had mixed feelings.

It has to be said that the accident came so suddenly that he didn't know how to plan for the future.

The original plan was to continue wandering the universe and use this incident to cause Frieza some more trouble.

Now that King Kai has emerged, he has more options.

In the past, he had indeed considered using some means to travel through the snake path in the underworld and then meet the King of the North.

Over the years, because he has always followed his own path, Talot has overlooked many of the original methods for becoming stronger.

Now, perhaps it's time to go back to Earth.

It has been six or seven years since I left Earth with Serari, and five and a half years since I found Raditz.

"Brother Tarot, where do we go next? Frieza thinks we all died in the planet's explosion, and the news is spreading. Frieza wants to tell the whole world that he killed all of us Saiyans who caused destruction."

Inside the spaceship, Serari saw the latest intelligence received by the system and asked Talot for his opinion.

Neither Raditz nor Tais spoke.

Where to go? What to do? These have always been the decisions Talot makes.

Most importantly, Talot is the strongest, and it is because of him that they have been able to make it all the way.

Talott looked serious and had not yet made a decision.

His gaze darted back and forth between Serari, Raditz, and Tais.

"After hearing what the North Kaiser said, Talot, you seem so hesitant. You don't actually want to go and train with that guy, do you?" Raditz seemed to notice Talot's hesitation and, based on his guess, asked.

In his heart, Talot had long become the center, the backbone that led him to become stronger.

Therefore, once Talot has made a decision, he will follow through and do the same.

However, this time he still felt that the North King was unreliable.

Although Tais knew the name of the North Kaiser, it was indeed true.

"I do have that idea, but before that, I think we should probably go back to Earth." He admitted that he would go to King Kai, but denied that he would go now, at least not right now.

Talot's words caused not only Raditz to shudder and catch his breath, but also Serari and Tais to feel a tremor in their hearts.

Over the years, I have thought about going back to Earth.

But all along they have been either adventuring, traveling between countless planets, or cultivating and improving their strength.

The fact that they are suddenly being asked to return to Earth is truly unexpected for them.

Talot had always said that it wasn't time to go back yet.

Now, suddenly going back and letting them reminisce about the past makes them realize how quickly time has passed.

"Really? Are we going back? Brother Talot?" Serari became excited and repeatedly asked for confirmation.

Tarot nodded: "We didn't go back to Earth before because we were afraid it would be implicated. Now that Frieza thinks we're dead, we might as well go back. You miss Aunt Gine and Kakarot, don't you?"

Serari nodded quickly upon hearing this.

She was only six and a half years old when she came out, and now she is thirteen.

Raditz's breathing became increasingly rapid, and images kept flashing through his mind, causing him to lose control of his emotions.

In fact, he had been eagerly anticipating going to Earth to see his mother Gine and his younger brother Kakarot for a long time.

Because he was too weak, and because Talot never mentioned going back, he never brought it up either.

Now, the sudden decision to go back makes him feel as if he's in another world, as if he's dreaming.

"Are you really going to Earth? You better not lie to me. You know I don't like making jokes like this," Raditz pressed.

Hearing him say this, Talot was both amused and exasperated: "How could this be fake? You've had enough experience over the years, it's time to go back and recuperate for a while."

"Unfortunately, I can't sense Earth's presence. Even with my spatial teleportation, I can't transfer directly. I still have to rely on a spaceship."

"Tai's got no objections, right?"

After Talot finished speaking, he looked at Tais.

Hearing the question, Tais was also filled with emotion. Now it was her turn to speak, and she quickly organized her thoughts, saying, "Then let's go back. I also miss my mom, dad, and Bulma. But it might take a long time to get back to Earth from here."

With the arrival time confirmed by the Tais operation system, the group did not linger.

……

The scene changes.

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed.

Located on Earth.

On Baozi Mountain.

Gine is preparing dinner for tonight.

This is a large fish that was recently caught in the river, and a plump, strong wild beast, similar to a bison, which she is turning over and over on the barbecue grill.

She has lived an ordinary life on Baozi Mountain for many years and has gradually gotten used to life on Earth.

There was no strife, no conspiracy, no deceit, and no enemies.

Although this kind of life was monotonous and dull, so mundane that it couldn't be more mundane, it made Gine truly fall in love with this place.

Even though her husband is still missing, and even though her eldest son is still training in the universe with Talot and the others, she has her youngest son by her side.

While preparing the food, Gine looked into the distance.

Sun Wukong had just finished the training task assigned by Grandpa Gohan and was now exhausted, collapsing to the ground and panting.

Son Gohan stood by, smiling encouragingly, and also teaching his grandson from outer space how to stabilize his energy after training.

This is the initial method for cultivating ki, and it is also the basic method that Son Gohan found.

Talot also benefited greatly from him, making further progress in his cultivation of Qi.

Just then, the enticing aroma of the food stimulated their sense of smell.

Son Gohan didn't show anything, but Son Goku, having shaken off all his fatigue, eagerly stood up and jogged over.

"Don't worry, it'll be ready in ten more minutes, Kakarot." Gine looked at her youngest son with a smile, her eyes full of doting affection.

Although the youngest son wasn't particularly talented, he was very passionate about cultivating and becoming stronger.

She neither stopped it nor intervened.

According to Gohan, although Goku is a Saiyan, he is more like an Earthling. A low starting point does not mean that his future achievements will be mediocre. Therefore, he followed Gohan's wishes and accepted his training.

As it turned out, this was indeed true; under Gohan's diligent tutelage, Goku's strength improved rapidly.

For a platform like Earth, it's already incredibly powerful.

"Mmm-hmm-hmm." Sun Wukong drooled all over the place after hearing Ji Nei's words.

He resisted the aroma of grilled fish and meat, and the way he stared at the food was exceptionally adorable.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

The grilled fish and meat on the campfire were cut into more than a dozen large plates by Ji Nei.

Because Saiyans have an enormous appetite, Goku and Gine ate most of the food, while Gohan only ate a little.

Because he was already halfway to the ground, his physical needs were no longer as great as when he was young. He only needed to maintain his basic needs every day.

Just as Gine and Sun Wukong were about to enjoy their food.

Suddenly, a familiar aura appeared in Gine's senses, and even Gohan noticed it, looking up at the sky.

……

at the same time.

Temple of Heaven.

Piccolo and Popo immediately sensed something.

When Talot and Serari's auras entered their senses, they looked up at the universe, their expressions serious.

So many years have passed since Talot and the others left Earth, and they have not returned, so Sky God Piccolo has never bothered to investigate further.

Now that they're back, the pressure is immense for Sky God Piccolo.

Most importantly, another uncontrollable aura has emerged, which is clearly the eldest son of Gine.

In his early years, thanks to Talot, he was able to communicate and meet with the Grand Elder of Namek via video, and thus learned many things that he did not know at first, including the situation of Talot and his companions in the universe.

Over the years, he has also undergone many tests and teachings from the Grand Elder.

Even though he had figured things out and wasn't afraid of Talot and the others, the God of Heaven, Piccolo, had too strong a desire for control. He was afraid of any unexpected events and couldn't completely trust them like the Grand Elder.

In fact, he didn't need to think so much. If Talot really affected him, he wouldn't have any chance to think about it.

"My Lord, you should take care of yourself. Actually, Talot and Seraril aren't bad people, and they shouldn't pose any threat to Earth." Popo was quite understanding and was also trying to persuade God Piccolo.

"I know, hopefully nothing unexpected will happen." Celestial Piccolo's expression was gloomy, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Someone like him will probably only truly let go once he receives instructions from his superiors.

For example, in the future, King Kai might intervene and tell him that the Earth's Celestial Tarot and the others are warriors who uphold justice.

……

In space, accompanied by a beam of light, the spaceship entered the solar system. In less than a minute, it had already slowed down and streaked across the sky, entering the interior of Earth's atmosphere.

Without a doubt, this was the spaceship that Talot and his companions were piloting.

It took three months to return to Earth.

In fact, this is already a considerable distance. After all, for this spaceship, even at its current speed, it would only take six or seven days to travel from Earth to Namek. With a three-month flight time, the distance is multiplied, since the speed of a spaceship can change and is not fixed.

The Western Capital arrived on Earth.

The Brives and Bulma had been waiting for the spaceship to land.

Because they received the message in advance, and just now Talot and the others sent the latest update.

As the spaceship landed on the launch pad, Talot, Serari, Raditz, and Tais emerged from the spaceship.

Before Talot and the others could say anything, Tais excitedly pounced on them.

After all, they are my real family. It's no wonder I couldn't control myself after not seeing them for so many years.

In order not to disrupt their family reunion, Talot and Serarri briefly greeted Brief and Bulma with Raditz before taking their leave and heading to Baozi Mountain.

Gine and Kakarot are both there. Their return to Earth is something Raditz will definitely want to see, especially.

……

Baozi Mountain.

A ripple appeared in the space behind Hime.

A whooshing sound rang out.

Gine only sensed some movement behind her. When she perceived three auras, she became excited and quickly turned around to look.

Son Gohan and Son Goku's attention was also drawn to it.

Who else could it be but Talot and his group?

With instantaneous spatial teleportation, the three arrived at Baozi Mountain in a flash.

"Talot, Serari! And Raditz... my son!!" Tears welled in her eyes, and Gine's emotions erupted, almost uncontrollably.

"Aunt Gine, we're back," Talot said with a smile.

"Aunt Gine, I missed you so much." Serari rushed over and sought warmth in Gine's arms.

Raditz showed remarkable composure at this moment, clenching his fists as he looked at his mother, trying his best to control his emotions.

"Mom...we've finally met." Raditz's voice trembled slightly; after all, this was a long-awaited reunion between mother and son.

To be honest, we've had quite a few video conversations over the years, so it's not like we haven't met in person before.

But actually coming back is different from meeting in person via video.

"Yes, welcome home!!" Wiping away her tears, Gine suddenly smiled. "Speaking of which, you've come back at just the right time. I prepared a lot of food, originally planning to store some to make jerky."

For Gine, now all her family members are here except for Bardock, whose whereabouts are unknown.

No words matter at this moment.

When eyes meet, and understanding is shared, when feelings reach a certain stage, one no longer asks for anything more.

At that moment, everyone's attention was focused on Kakarot.

For them, it's true that they haven't seen Kakarot in all these years.

Even video calls were made by Gine visiting Brief's house every now and then and using Brief's equipment to make contact.

Kakarot was clearly uncomfortable with the arrival of the three, and even tugged at Gohan's pant leg somewhat timidly.

He was really still young and didn't understand anything. He had an instinctive aversion to strangers, unlike when he was an infant, when the guidance of blood would make him feel close to Talot and Serarra.

"Kakarot, he really does look exactly like Dad," Raditz muttered.

Thinking back to what I said back then, I feel incredibly emotional.

He looked at Son Gohan again, with something in his heart but not knowing how to express it. After struggling for a long time, he simply looked at Son Gohan and nodded.

It can be considered an acknowledgment of him, at least there was no hostility.

Raditz then pressed the Earth version of the combat power detector.

"Beep beep beep..."

Combat power index: 50 points.

"From a combat power of only 2 points to 50 points, although the data is just average, the improvement is more than I expected." Raditz said with a chuckle, then added, "No matter how strong or weak you become in the future, you will always be my brother, Raditz's brother, and I will protect you."

He is still the same Latitz who loves his family and is responsible.

He didn't care at all about his younger brother's weak strength.

"Are you my brother?" Sun Wukong began to feel a sense of goodwill towards Raditz because of Raditz's confession.

Although the older brother said he was weak, he roughly understood what Raditz meant.

He's his older brother, and he'll protect him.

Raditz, upon hearing Goku's question, crossed his arms and looked very proud: "Remember to call me Big Brother from now on."

"Big brother..." After hesitating for a moment, Sun Wukong seemed to suddenly understand and shouted "Okay."

Gine, who was standing nearby, saw the interaction between Raditz and Kakarot and a satisfied and happy smile appeared on her face.

She had been worried that after so many years, Raditz's personality might have changed drastically due to his cosmic experiences.

But now it seems that her worries were somewhat unnecessary.

Raditz is still Raditz, nothing has changed.

Gine also thanked Talot, because she knew he had played a part in it.

Otherwise, nobody knows what will happen to Raditz.

Soon, everyone sat around the table and enjoyed dinner together.

The amount of food wasn't actually that much, considering the sudden addition of three Saiyans.

But they wouldn't complain about having too little, and Talot and his group also brought alien food.

Everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere, and their faces were filled with long-lost smiles.

There is no pressure, no threat, and no need to think about anything else.

Talott, Serari, and Raditz relaxed their tense nerves and enjoyed the wonderful moment of reuniting with their family.

……

Time flew by and the next day arrived.

Because they got along well on the first night, the two brothers even slept side by side.

The next morning, Raditz began her babysitting career with Kakarot.

Fortunately, Talot had already told Raditz about Kakarot, so he didn't act rashly and took everything very slowly.

After all, the older brother has a combat power of 45000 points, while the younger brother only has 50 points.

Of course, compared to the original work, he is five times stronger, after all, when he first appeared, the 12-year-old Sun Wukong only had a combat power of 10 points.

Talot sighed, his thoughts unknown to anyone else.

Thinking about Sun Wukong in the original story and comparing it to the present, he has no idea how far things will develop in the future.

First, the initial bosses should no longer pose a threat to Sun Wukong.

Secondly, Piccolo Daimaō makes his appearance...

Talot could imagine that after that guy appeared, facing Goku whose power level might exceed 1,000, he might yell at Pilaf, "Why the hell did you let me out? Let me go back right now!"

Thirdly, without Raditz coming to Earth to find Kakarot, there would be no subsequent invasion of Earth by Vegeta and Nappa due to the Dragon Balls, and there would be no Frieza invasion of Namek.

So, to advance the plot, we have to rely on this butterfly.

Now that things have come to this, Talot has already come to terms with it. Even if he can't fully control the plot's pace to cheat, he still has the future to decide!
