Dragon Ball: From Escape from Planet Vegeta

Chapter 99 Goku and Bulma, Master Roshi is stunned

A massive supernova tore through space, hurtling toward Talot like a miniature sun.

Upon seeing this, Talot perked up, rapidly gathering the limited energy within his body to maintain his balance and stability.

Wave?

Talot had absolutely no intention of doing so.

If there were still plenty of energy left, I would definitely give it a try, but in my current state, the power I have accumulated is only enough for spatial teleportation.

Senzu Beans...

It's not time to eat yet. He needs to let his body release even more energy and wait until he reaches the final critical point before eating. This way, the improvement will be more stable, which is the most appropriate approach.

Talot always believed that the Saiyan's ability to recover from serious injury and increase their strength was not something to be abused. Even if it had a great effect, it would also affect future development.

The unlimited power-ups of Goku and Vegeta in the original work, and their continuous bursts of power later on, were due to two reasons: firstly, they had accumulated power over a long period of several years; secondly, they were the male leads in the series, so they couldn't be compared to him.

Silently facing the approaching massive energy blast, the sense of oppression grew stronger and stronger.

"Hmph! At this point, you don't even have the courage to resist? Then die, you wild monkey..." High in the sky, seeing that Talot made no move to fight back, Gula maintained the posture of propelling the energy blast with one hand and let out a sinister laugh.

In his view, Talot was doomed.

One thousand meters...

500 meters...

Three hundred meters...

One hundred meters...

It's so close!

"Is this the absolute oppression that death brings? It's far more terrifying than the death energy blast that Frieza used last time... I am indeed far inferior to you now. Even if I really complete the Super Saiyan transformation, I probably still can't beat you!"

"But next time we meet, I'll definitely defeat you, Gura."

At this moment, Talot truly realized the magnitude of the gap and no longer hesitated.

In the blink of an eye, spatial teleportation was activated, and he disappeared from the spot.

The moment Talot disappeared, the supernova surged forward without resistance, tearing through the surface and penetrating the planet's interior until it crashed into its core...

In that instant, the entire planet was plunged into devastating chaos.

The earth collapsed, tsunamis raged, and scalding lava rose from the ground, shooting straight into the sky.

On this planet, the native inhabitants and other creatures were already searching for new habitats due to the constant wars, but now they have nowhere to escape and not even a glimmer of hope.

Their only fate was death.

As the supernova reacted violently with the planet's core and exploded, in an instant, the entire planet experienced a massive explosion from the inside out!

"pound!!!!!!!!"

The light from the planet's explosion was so dazzling and magnificent.

The explosion was incredibly powerful, even causing space itself to tremble.

When the light from the explosion faded.

Countless fragments of planets are scattered throughout outer space.

Gula stood with his arms crossed on a huge piece of planetary debris.

"It's remarkable that you escaped from Frieza, but unfortunately, you can't escape from me." Cooler, extremely arrogant, clearly believed that Talot had been destroyed by his supernova.

What he didn't know was that Talot had already slipped away the moment the supernova landed.

Before long, a small spaceship slowly sailed to Gura's side after the aftershocks of the explosion had completely dissipated.

Since the main spaceship was destroyed along with the planet's explosion, Cooler can now only travel in this small spaceship.

As the spaceship's hatch opened, Cooler exited his final form and entered the spaceship.

The purpose of this small spaceship was for Gula to record the scenes of him destroying planets.

Therefore, the interior space is not very large, and cannot be compared with his main spaceship.

Despite its small size, it is fully equipped with all the necessary internal organs.

……

Inside the driver's cab.

"King Gura." The drivers all stood in awe, not daring to offend him.

Serving a king is like serving a tiger; they were just lowly drivers and recorders, how could they possibly withstand Gura's terrifying aura?

"Pull up the footage of my fight with that wild monkey. You should have recorded it, right?" Gula ordered authoritatively, his eyes red.

"Yes, sir." The spaceship pilot hurriedly took action, constantly manipulating the instruments.

Finally, a tall screen appeared, projecting a light curtain.

The image above shows the scene of Gura fighting Talot.

While enjoying his own battle, he began to study Talot's fighting techniques.

This is Gula's usual practice.

Ordinary beings are not worth his close attention, but Talot is different, especially some of Talot's moves and skills, which broadened his horizons.

One skill in particular interested him.

That is Talot's ability to disappear and reappear in an instant.

This move allows him to appear silently behind others. If he weren't stronger and had a more instinctive reaction, he would have suffered several losses.

If mastered, it would greatly enhance his combat abilities.

Unlike Frieza's arrogance and conceit, Cooler, though self-important, learns from battles and studies his enemies' techniques to compensate for his weaknesses, making himself stronger and stronger.

That's why he's stronger than Frieza.

After observing it several times, Gula frowned. In normal battles, no matter what moves his opponent used, he only needed to watch it a few times to learn them.

But this particular move was completely beyond his grasp; he couldn't find any pattern to it.

Just as Gula was pondering how to learn this move, the changes in Talot in the scene before him caught his attention.

This scene depicts Talot deflecting his death energy cannon back.

In an instant, the Saiyan's form seemed to change.

"Rewind the scene and slow down!" Gula commanded.

"Yes, Your Majesty Gura." The driver nodded in response and began to operate the controls.

Watching it at two or three times slower speed, Gula was completely stunned.

In the image, Talot's aura and hair have turned golden, and his pupils have turned emerald green.

This change reminded Gula of a saying that has been passed down through their tribe.

[Be careful, if you emit a golden aura, you'll turn into a golden-haired Saiyan.]

At that moment, Gula suddenly realized the truth.

[No wonder this wild monkey could grow to this level in such a short time. It turns out he really is a Super Saiyan!] Cooler was completely certain that Tarot was indeed a Super Saiyan.

Fortunately, he was strong enough to nip the Super Saiyan in the bud; otherwise, if the Super Saiyan had grown up, things would have been really troublesome.

Although he didn't think a Super Saiyan could defeat him, he knew that a fierce battle would be inevitable if they faced each other.

Now, Tarot and those two Saiyans have all died in the Big Bang.

In this universe, apart from the two Saiyans under Frieza's command, there are no other Saiyans.

There will never be a Super Saiyan again in this world.

Cooler has a new idea: to kill the two Saiyans next to Frieza.

Even if there is no threat now, it doesn't mean there won't be in the future.

Only by ensuring absolute safety can we have peace of mind.

……

At the same time.

The underworld.

On King Kaiser North at the end of Serpent Path.

Talot, who had just returned using a spatial teleportation technique, was sitting on the ground, panting heavily.

His clothes were tattered, his battle armor torn, he looked disheveled, seriously wounded, and blood still trickled from the corner of his mouth...

This was arguably the first time Talot had been beaten so badly and suffered such serious injuries since his transmigration.

Raditz and Serarri stood beside Talott, asking him with concern, their inner panic not yet completely dissipated.

There was no doubt that Talot's injuries were what made their scalps tingle.

If these injuries had landed on them, they would have been half-dead, if not killed.

"It's alright, you two don't need to worry. If it weren't for the need to adapt and use this pressure to break through, I would have already eaten the Senzu Bean and recovered."

As he spoke, Talot took out a Senzu Bean from his personal storage space and popped it into his mouth.

Portable space!

This is the power that Talot obtained a few years ago when he went to Namek to summon the dragon Poronga and made a wish.

You said, doesn't it also have self-healing ability?

indeed!

However, self-healing consumes a great deal of energy, especially now that Talot has no energy left, making it impossible for him to repair such severe injuries.

The effects were immediately apparent as the Senzu Bean entered the stomach.

Talot's body suddenly swelled up, and all his muscles trembled with excitement.

All of his injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Not only did his injuries heal and he regain his former vitality, but his combat power also increased significantly, bringing his normal combat power to over 150 million!

[As expected, it was a deliberate scheme, not a true near-death experience. It was just severe injury and exhaustion, so the body couldn't feel any real crisis and couldn't achieve any significant breakthrough.] He thought to himself.

Although it's an improvement, it's only 30 points, which seems like a lot, but compared to the improvements Goku and Vegeta made in the original work, it's far less significant.

Seeing that Talot had recovered and his strength had greatly increased, Serari and Raditz suddenly realized why Talot had taken such a risk.

King Kai walked over with his hands behind his back, speaking earnestly: "You've really been reckless. Although this time you've turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise, you can't act so recklessly in the future. Now you know how terrifying Cooler is; he's far beyond what Frieza can compare to."

"Yes, he is indeed very strong. However, he is not invincible! I learned a lot from this battle, and I will win next time we face each other." Talot smiled confidently.

The situation will surely be reversed when we meet again.

Unless, of course, Gura's strength also increases significantly.

But that's obviously impossible!

Given their arrogant and conceited nature, they are so proud of their own strength that they disdain any training or cultivation!

Seeing that Talot was not discouraged but instead full of fighting spirit, King Kai was surprised but also relieved.

He had thought that Talot would be devastated after being severely injured by Gura, but it seems he was overthinking it.

This kid truly lives up to his reputation as the disciple he chose.

Most importantly, this disciple has pushed the Kaioken technique to its limit by 20 times!

This was something he had never imagined.

"It's impressive that you can maintain such high morale after experiencing setbacks! But you also need to be aware of your own limitations! For the next period of time, you should rest well and absorb the insights gained from this great battle," said the North Kai.

The three nodded, each lost in their own imagination.

……

In the blink of an eye, a day has passed.

Talot, Serari, and Raditz remained in a meditative state.

Yesterday's match, although it was only Tarot's home game, saw Tarot significantly improve.

However, it must be said that Serari and Raditz, having experienced a real battle and witnessed the great battle between Talot and Gura, gained a great deal of insight.

Throughout the day, no one disturbed them. Even when the North Kai would occasionally walk around to observe the situation, he would not interrupt them.

If some insights are interrupted, then you may never experience them again in this lifetime.

Sometimes, that's how strength improves and realms are broken.

Here, the situation is stable, and Talot and his two companions are climbing towards an even higher peak of strength.

……

the other side.

On Earth.

Goku left Mount Paozu with Bulma, and is now experiencing with her the things they went through in the original story.

It can be said that although the arrival of Tarot, Serari, and Gine caused many changes, it was actually only a one-sided influence on Goku, and it only allowed Bulma to get to know Goku earlier.

Of course, Sun Wukong's fighting power has indeed increased significantly. In the original story, he only had 10 points of fighting power, but now he has a full 150 points.

150 points!

Even without unleashing his full power, Master Roshi only has 139 points of fighting strength.

Even if it erupts, it only has 180 combat power.

This means that even Master Roshi wouldn't be able to easily defeat Goku in the present day.

According to the original storyline, when Sun Wukong first participated in the World Martial Arts Tournament, he was barely able to put up a fight with Jackie Chan, who was played by Master Roshi. At that time, his fighting power was only around 100 to 120 points.

After undergoing some trials, his combat power reached 150 points during his battle with Tao Pai Pai, after being tested by Korin Tower and the Nekomamushi.

Finally, during the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament, he reached a combat power of 180 points.

The next period will be one of rapid development and breakthroughs, but the quantitative scale of these breakthroughs will not be large.

Just like after drinking the Divine Water, Goku only reached a power level of 260, the same as the young Piccolo Daimaō.

Even after training with King Piccolo for three years, Goku only had 400 points.

Although his combat power didn't increase much until the Raditz arc, his maximum power-up could reach at least 900 points.

Getting back to the main point, with some changes in the premises, things will naturally change.

However, despite these changes in the premise, only specific people and specific events will be changed; the original plot from the beginning will remain unchanged.

In short, since the time spent searching for the Dragon Balls hasn't changed, naturally some specific events won't change either.

The butterfly effect can cause many things to deviate from their intended course, or even cease to occur.

However, it also depends on whether this butterfly will affect these processes.

Currently, there is not much difference.

To put it simply, after leaving Baozi Mountain yesterday and resting overnight, Goku and Bulma encountered the sea turtle again and, at the turtle's request, escorted it to the sea.

Along the way, they encountered a bear monster that tried to rob them, but Sun Wukong easily defeated it.

Then, they waited by the sea until evening before Master Roshi finally arrived.

The plot unfolds just like in the original story.

Master Roshi, wanting to express his gratitude, immediately thought of summoning the phoenix. However, after being reminded by the sea turtle, he learned that the phoenix had recently died from poison after eating poisonous food.

This move left Bulma speechless, while Master Roshi said embarrassedly that he named the phoenix because he hoped it could live forever.

Left with no other choice, Master Roshi splurged and summoned the Flying Nimbus.

Then, something awkward happened.

Bulma liked it quite a bit, but her intentions were impure, so she couldn't ride the Flying Nimbus. Meanwhile, the Flying Nimbus really liked Goku and clung to him, trying to get him to ride it.

However, Goku didn't care about flying at all, because he had learned Saiyan flying techniques under Raditz's intentional or unintentional guidance in his early years.

Master Roshi was utterly astonished when he heard this news.

After all, even he hadn't learned the art of flying, but little Sun Wukong had.

After some conversation, I learned that not only was Son Goku a Saiyan, but he was also the little boy that Son Gohan had found back then.

Clearly, Master Roshi knows far more about Goku than the original story suggests. This is partly because he knows Tarot and has access to a lot of information, and partly because Gohan communicates with him and tells him these things.

Finally, Master Roshi, intentionally or unintentionally, probed and inquired, learning just how powerful Goku was, which left him utterly astonished.

After learning that his grandfather was the old man's apprentice, Sun Wukong was overjoyed and wanted to fight Master Roshi.

Master Roshi, being an elder, couldn't refuse a child, so he decided to have some fun with him, thinking he might be able to show off his skills and then take the kid as his disciple.

As a result, the battle, which ended in a draw, really strained Master Roshi's back.

Fortunately, he was old and had an excuse, so Sun Wukong couldn't pursue him maliciously.

Before parting, Master Roshi could only curse inwardly: Saiyans are monsters.

He, a martial arts master from Earth, is actually inferior to a 12-year-old Saiyan child.

As we bid farewell to Master Roshi, the sun had already set.

The sea breeze made Bulma shiver.

"No way! That old man hasn't even given me a gift to thank me yet, and he's already leaving, eh~~!" Bulma said sarcastically, somewhat displeased.

Sun Wukong didn't think much of it and remarked, "It's actually okay that Bulma didn't give me a thank you gift. Besides, he's a very powerful old man. No wonder he's my master."

With his childlike voice and his simple, honest, and guileless personality, Sun Wukong is really cute and lovable.

Bulma felt like crying after hearing his words.

In her opinion, since Sun Wukong already got the Somersault Cloud, it's no big deal.

But she couldn't say it outright, since that's just how the child was.

In the end, she had no choice but to consider her day as a wasted effort.

"Let's go, it's too cold at the beach. We need to get going; the location of the next Dragon Ball is hundreds of miles away," Bulma said, then took out a capsule, which opened to reveal an off-road motorcycle.

Sun Wukong leaped onto the platform, and the two hurried on their way before it got completely dark.

It wasn't until eight or nine o'clock at night that Bulma and Son Goku finally arrived at a village in the dark.

This is the village that was ravaged by Oolong in the original story, and it's also where they found the fourth Dragon Ball.

However, the plot has changed, and Tarot has already taken the Dragon Ball.

Even without the Dragon Balls, Oolong's storyline still unfolded. Goku and Bulma, who had spent the night in the village, launched an attack the next day. Under Goku's fierce offensive, Oolong was exposed for what he truly was.

After learning the truth and discovering how miserable Wulong was, no one blamed him. Instead, Wulong was indirectly invited to join the team.

The group set off that day and eventually found the Six-Star Dragon Ball by a forest stream two hundred miles away.

Whether it was fate or not, this Dragon Ball just happened to be linked to this place.

After finding the Dragon Ball, the three continued their journey and soon crossed the mountains and entered a desolate desert area.

Just like in the original story, Poole discovered the three's whereabouts and notified Yamcha, who called himself the Wild Wolf Bandit.

This is the second character to appear in the original work, and he is considered a martial artist with considerable skill!

If we don't count Master Roshi, then he's the first one.

To put it simply, Yamcha was initially set up as the second male lead, but the character wasn't particularly likable, and the changes in his age and personality were abrupt. As a result, he was replaced by Krillin in the initial second male lead position.

Later, not only was he no match for Krillin in strength, but he was also outmatched by Krillin in every aspect.

Perhaps Yamcha did indeed have everything in the early stages – wealth, fame, and women – but after the Z storyline began, for some reason, Yamcha gradually became marginalized, eventually losing everything and only able to find himself and a sense of existence in the world of ordinary people.

That's terrible!

But it must be said that Yamcha's life is one that countless ordinary people yearn for but cannot attain.

Although he was unable to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the Earth, and did not possess top-tier strength, his carefree life was unparalleled.

The Tea Master!

This nickname is not just a joke, but a reflection of the envy and jealousy of countless people!

Getting back to the main point, this is the later development of the original work.

At this moment, Yamcha appeared and, after delivering a serious and intimidating speech, was slapped to the ground by Goku, losing a tooth in the process.

He's lucky to be alive.

One has 150 combat power points, while the other only has seven or eight.

In the original story, Sun Wukong, with a combat power of 10 points and on an empty stomach, still managed to utterly defeat him.

Although Yamcha was scared away by Bulma during their first encounter, it has to be said that if they really fought, Yamcha would only get beaten up.

"Wait, wait! Who are you? How can you be so powerful?!" Faced with Sun Wukong's aggressive appearance, Yamcha dared not resist and could only ask for mercy.

In addition, Yamcha saw Bulma getting out of the RV, and his fear of women made him even more unable to move.

"I am Son Goku! You can also call me Kakarot!" With a loud shout, it was clear that Son Goku disliked Yamcha because he knew Yamcha was a bandit and considered him a bad guy.

Yamcha's mind went blank for a moment. Pull, who was beside him, knew what kind of person his master was, and immediately begged for mercy.

Since there was no loss to be made and he didn't want to actually kill anyone, Goku, persuaded by Bulma, let Yamcha go.

Oolong, on the other hand, adopted an arrogant attitude, after all, he had a grudge against Poole and knew about Yamcha's bad reputation.

The group voluntarily left the area under Bulma's RV, and Yamcha was finally saved.

Poole looked worried, while Yamcha was furious, thinking that he had really lost face this time.

"Damn it! This is the first time I've ever been slapped so hard, and my teeth too! That damn brat!"

Looking at the bristling Yamcha, Pu'er's worry deepened: "Young Master Yamcha, I think we should leave them alone. That brat is too powerful. Just looking at him gives me goosebumps."

Upon hearing this, Yamcha took a deep breath: "Just as I thought, me too! That brat is terrifyingly strong! Just standing there staring at me fiercely makes it hard for me to breathe."

"However! I will not give up so easily. This grudge is irreconcilable!" Yamcha said fiercely again.

Poole looked conflicted, yet he couldn't refute it.

into the night.

Yamcha and Poole followed him all the way.

They planned to rob Sun Wukong and his companions after they fell asleep, but they were detected by Sun Wukong's aura shortly after getting close and were slapped by him again.

The original plot did not take place, and the interaction between Yamcha and Bulma was severed due to this obstacle.

However, Yamcha was beaten up, but Poole still overheard news about the Dragon Balls, which fueled Yamcha's desire to take them.

Of course he got beaten up twice; Yamcha isn't stupid.

He knew perfectly well that he was no match for Goku, so rather than trying to steal it now, he decided to wait until Goku had collected all the Dragon Balls and made a wish before trying to intercept him.

……

After one night, Bulma and her two companions set off again.

Because there was no further attack from Yamcha, today's itinerary went exceptionally smoothly.

It was in the mountain stream leading away from the wasteland that Bulma used the Dragon Radar to find the Dragon Balls that should have been obtained from Master Roshi.

They continued eastward.

Before evening, we arrived at Frying Pot Mountain, which was engulfed in flames.

Although the Dragon Balls are no longer here, the search for them still led us through this area.

I wonder if this is the world slowly restoring the original storyline.

As the story unfolds, Sun Wukong and the Bull Demon King become acquainted through a fight, and the Bull Demon King is overjoyed to learn that Sun Wukong is actually the grandson of Grandpa Gohan.

Then comes the classic scene where the Bull Demon King asks Sun Wukong to find Master Roshi and, incidentally, his daughter Chi-Chi.

To help, Goku used his Flying Nimbus to search for Chi-Chi, eventually finding not only Chi-Chi, who had almost been kidnapped by Yamcha, but also Master Roshi.

The Kamehameha wave extinguished the fire, but it also blew up the frying pan mountain.

After seeing this move, Sun Wukong also tried it out. Unlike in the original story, he almost blew up another mountain because he couldn't control his strength.

This breathtaking scene shocked everyone, especially Yamcha and Poole, who were hiding in the shadows, their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

Only now did they realize how vast the gap was.

Having completely lost their competitive spirit, the two also took the initiative to admit their mistakes.

It's fortunate that they were important characters in the original story and that they encountered Sun Wukong and his group; otherwise, who would accept their apology?

With the addition of Yamcha and Poole, the original cast is now truly complete.

After saying goodbye to the Bull Demon King and Qiqi, the group set off again the next day.

After many twists and turns, they found another Dragon Ball and entered the territory of the Rabbit Army.

The rabbit army was wiped out, but not as far-fetched as in the original story. Sun Wukong used his Ruyi Jingu Bang to send the rabbit army's leader and his men to the moon.

Ultimately, how could the magic staff possibly reach that length? And most importantly, the moon can't accommodate humans either.

In the end, the rabbit army was defeated by Sun Wukong and Yamcha and brought to justice.

What the future holds is uncertain, but one thing is certain: they won't be able to commit evil deeds for the foreseeable future.

With the local people bidding them farewell, the group rested and then continued their journey.

It's worth mentioning that the only thing that changed after this incident was probably the relationship between Yamcha, Pupu, Goku, Bulma, and Oolong.

At first, I just joined in to help search for the Dragon Balls.

Yamcha did his best to protect Bulma and Oolong this time, which earned him the approval of Goku and the others.

For some reason, Yamcha was no longer afraid of women, which made him extremely grateful for Bulma's help.

Although they didn't become girlfriends, they became trustworthy friends.

After traveling for two more days, the group finally arrived at Pilaf's castle.

The remaining Dragon Balls are inside the castle.

Originally, the group planned to exchange the Dragon Balls for items of equal value.

However, they ended up being maliciously attacked by the Pilaf trio.

To be fair, the trio of Pilaf made a grand entrance in the original story, but ended up in a terrible situation.

This time, it's even worse.

The reason is simple: Sun Wukong is too powerful!

With a combat power of 150 points, he is enough to instantly kill everything. On this earth today, there are only a few people who can defeat him.

No one expected that the Pilaf trio would secretly develop for over twenty years, eventually becoming friends with the next generation of children as children themselves, and fully integrating into the group.

Most importantly, there's Mai, who will become Trunks' girlfriend in the future.

If Bulma knew this now, she would be furious.

They defeated Pilaf and his trio, and obtained the Dragon Balls.

Summoning Shenron is a first-time experience for most people, but for Bulma, it was something she experienced once when she was a child.

That was summoned by Talot.

"The moment has finally come," Yamcha said, swallowing hard.

"What exactly does a dragon look like?" Poole exclaimed in amazement.

"Stop complaining, you guys. And Bulma, hurry up, we can't wait any longer," Oolong urged.

Only Sun Wukong remained calm and undisturbed.

"Understood, I'll summon it now! Come forth, Shenron... and grant my wish! I remember it being like this..."

As Bulma recited the incantation to summon Shenron, the seven Dragon Balls quickly emitted a dazzling golden light.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the mysterious power hidden within the Dragon Balls was awakened and erupted from within them.

Dark clouds rolled rapidly across the sky, quickly covering it completely.

In less than a minute, darkness descended upon the entire Earth, preventing sunlight from penetrating.

The light was replaced by darkness, shocking everyone.

Even though Bulma had experienced it before, she was still shocked.

At that moment, golden light shot straight up into the sky from the seven Dragon Balls, accompanied by endless lightning, stirring up the dark clouds.

Gradually, the golden light transformed into a green-skinned divine dragon, emanating an incomparably terrifying dragon's might, and hovered in the sky.

"Whoever collects all seven Dragon Balls, tell me your wish, and whatever it is, I, the Dragon, can grant you one." As Shenron uttered his classic line, everyone was utterly astonished.

There was no shortage of感慨 (feelings/reflections), but the only one who remained completely unmoved was Sun Wukong.

A pure and innocent heart, as simple as a blank sheet of paper.

Others revere and fear the dragon, and then greed arises in their hearts.

He wouldn't, because he has almost no desires and would never rely on making wishes to satisfy himself.

Of course, besides wanting to know some questions...

For example, where did his older brothers and sisters go?

This is also what Bulma wants to know.

"Shenlong, can you tell me where Talot, Serari, and Raditz have been all these years?" Bulma asked.

She completely overlooked the fact that asking the question was making a wish.

"Your question should have been for three wishes, since it involves the whereabouts of three people. However, since you're only asking where they went, I can answer you. After all, the three of them have always been together, currently on King Kai's planet at the end of the Serpent Path in the Underworld. For the past few years, they have been receiving guidance and training from King Kai." Shenron didn't give Bulma a chance to back out and gave her the answer.

After making his wish, the dragon raised its head and let out a roar, seemingly relieved that this time making a wish was easy and releasing the negative emotions it had generated from its previous trip.

"Wait a minute! How can this be considered making a wish? I was just asking you a question." Bulma was getting a little exasperated.

At this moment, she recalled when Talot made his wish, even though the dragon had answered many of her questions, it didn't count as making a wish.

She was completely misled by Talot's wish-making process, subconsciously thinking that asking questions did not count as making a wish.

The dragon, however, did not tolerate her. Having completed its wish-granting task, it transformed into golden light and returned to the Dragon Ball.

The seven Dragon Balls turned into stones and scattered all over the world. Immediately afterward, the dark clouds in the sky receded rapidly and disappeared without a trace, and the sky returned to its clear and sunny state.

Bulma stood there, bewildered and stunned.

After working so hard to finally collect all the Dragon Balls, it's over with this wish...

She found it hard to accept, and felt a sense of unease.

"Why is this happening? I haven't even told you what I really wished for yet," Bulma cried out, her face contorted with grief.

Time cannot be reversed, and the dragon will never appear again to help her achieve her true wish.

Unless the Dragon Balls are collected again in a year to summon Shenron.

"Forget it, Bulma, don't we already know where Big Brother and the others are?" Goku didn't know anything, he just thought that knowing the location would allow him to find them quickly.

Bulma just watched him, not knowing whether to cry or not, feeling both angry and helpless.

It took Bulma a long time to calm down, while Yamcha, Poole, and Oolong were already discussing it amongst themselves.

First, I'm curious about the existence of Talot, Serari, and Raditz. I wonder what kind of people they are?

Secondly, the answer given by the dragon actually mentioned the underworld.

They couldn't understand what Serpent Way and King Kai's Planet were like, nor did they know what King Kai was.

However, they still knew what the underworld was.

The afterlife!

It is impossible for an ordinary living person to be certain that the underworld exists.

Anyone who considers themselves to have a modicum of intelligence will believe that after death, everything turns into nothingness.

The fact that the afterlife exists now demonstrates just how profound the impact on them is.

"It's unbelievable how big our world is!"

"Let me regroup. What Shenron just said—that the three relatives you two were looking for, Bulma and Goku, are now in the underworld… which means they're dead?"

Yamcha's summary surprised both Bulma and Goku.

Bulma was still struggling with the fact that Shenron had fooled her so easily, which made her determined to find Shenron again next year and take revenge.

Sun Wukong, on the other hand, did not understand it from the beginning.

Now that Yamcha has said that, how can he possibly remain calm?

"No, no way! Talot will be alright, they definitely won't die." Despite her panic, Bulma stubbornly insisted.

"I don't believe it either. If I really died, my mother would definitely tell me." Sun Wukong almost shouted.

Yamcha, Pull, and Oolong, seeing this, didn't know how to comfort him, so they could only suggest in a roundabout way that he might not be dead.

But in reality, anyone can understand that.

According to normal thinking, how could a living person go to a place like the underworld? That's a place only the dead go to.

After a long while, having calmed down, Bulma and Goku, after analyzing and speculating, decided to go back to Mount Paozu first.

Even if they really die, there are still Dragon Balls to summon Shenron and make a wish to revive everyone.

The only downside is that we have to wait a year for the Dragon Balls to be restored.

Yamcha, Pu'er, and Oolong had nowhere else to go, so they simply went along with it.

This deviates from the original plot.

Originally, Sun Wukong should have returned to Baozi Mountain to pack his luggage and then went to Master Roshi's house to find Master Roshi and become his apprentice.

Bulma, Yamcha, Pull, and Oolong should have returned to West City together to start a new life, until the World Martial Arts Tournament was held, when the group reunited.

In short, Bulma and Goku have both changed, which has affected others and caused changes as well, which is normal.
