: Giving Piccolo an opponent
Chapter 57 Giving Piccolo an Opponent
After noon.
Lin Chuan finished lunch with Son Gohan, then said goodbye to Chi-Chi. The two of them left West Capital one after the other using the Flying Technique.
Although Qiqi was very worried that her son was going to be taken away to cultivate with others, she had no choice but to accept it because her son was so serious and wanted to be independent.
In the past, Chi-Chi would have been lucky to agree to Gohan training; she would never have agreed to let him leave her side.
In Chi-Chi's mind, Gohan has always been a child.
In the original story, it wasn't until Gohan found Videl that she gradually realized her son had grown up.
It can be said that a lot has happened during this period, and Qiqi is slowly changing.
In fact, she can be understanding, she can be sensible and understand the situation.
……
They sped through the air, heading towards the southern continent.
The speed was neither fast nor slow.
Lin Chuan could see what was on Son Gohan's mind, and could only comfort him by telling him to take it easy.
Even fledgling eagles must leave the protection of their parents to embrace the world, let alone humans!
He is indeed too young for Earthlings, but for Saiyans, four years old is already old enough to invade planets.
For example, his father was sent to Earth, and his combat power was only 2.
……
Southern Continent.
On a massive mountain in the middle of a desolate desert.
Bick, who was meditating intently, suddenly opened his eyes.
He suddenly stood up and looked into the distance with a look of astonishment.
A peculiar, instinctive premonition made him realize that he was being targeted.
"Who is it? That Saiyan Lin Chuan? And there's a certain aura... It feels so familiar... Goku? Raditz? No! It's not them!"
Bick muttered to himself, his mind tense for a moment.
It's not a good sign if someone suddenly comes knocking at this time.
He still vividly remembers what happened twenty days ago.
That feeling of being completely suppressed and so shocked that I couldn't move is something I'll never forget.
Gazing at the sky, Bick frowned, his eyes serious.
I could barely breathe.
He exerted himself to maintain his breath and control his power, which allowed him to unleash power beyond his limits in an instant.
When he finally saw the two figures appearing on the horizon, Bick's serious expression turned to shock.
He saw the person other than Lin Chuan.
Sun Wukong's son!
Son Gohan!!!
"How is this possible?! This, this aura... Are you kidding me???" Piccolo exclaimed in disbelief.
Although Gohan unleashed unimaginable potential and power during his battle with Raditz, which shocked Raditz as well.
But how long has it been?
Is it possible to control that power in just twenty days?
After so much hardship, Bick suddenly felt a pang of fear, making him feel like he was no better than a child!
Piccolo didn't realize that, in terms of age, he was only four years older than Gohan.
It can only be said that combat-type Namekians mature earlier, and Piccolo inherited everything from the previous Piccolo I, so he never considered himself a child.
……
"We've arrived."
Upon seeing Piccolo, Lin Chuan smiled slightly and spoke to Gohan beside him.
Upon hearing this, Son Gohan focused his attention and saw a unique figure atop the desolate mountain.
"That person is Piccolo, the uncle who came to save me with my father..." Only now did Gohan realize who Lin Chuan was going to hand him over to.
Upon hearing the name Gohan, Lin Chuan was slightly surprised: "Gohan, how do you know his name is Piccolo?"
"Because back then I heard him call himself King Piccolo, and my dad and mom told me a lot about the past. My dad even said that Piccolo was his most important rival." Gohan's answer made Lin Chuan nod.
The most important opponent...
Indeed, before the Android arc, Piccolo was Goku's most formidable opponent.
However, starting with the Android Saga, Piccolo gradually fell to the sidelines due to the power gap.
Since then, Vegeta has become the person most valued by Goku.
"I see. Let's go down first. You'll have to follow him to cultivate from now on." Without delving into other issues, Lin Chuan glossed over the matter and descended from the sky first.
Son Gohan followed closely behind, without saying a word.
He is still timid; even though he has become stronger, he is still frightened by Piccolo's appearance.
Moreover, according to his mother, Piccolo is a super villain, a big bad guy who wants to destroy the world.
Lin Chuan smiled broadly as he met Piccolo's gaze.
Son Gohan stood by, feeling awkward, and just stared blankly.
"What brings you here?!" Bick spoke first.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan answered without hesitation, "No need to be so nervous, I'll give you an opponent!"
"An opponent?" Piccolo's surprised gaze shifted to Gohan.
There are only the three of them here. Lin Chuan came to give him an opponent... Doesn't that mean that brat Son Gohan?
Who is Bick?
His IQ has always been online.
"What? You don't think it's appropriate?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile, trying to probe Bick's true thoughts.
"You think this is appropriate?" Bick asked, slightly annoyed, as if his sore spot had been hit.
To make Goku's son, Gohan, his opponent?!
Are you kidding me!
He's Piccolo the Great Demon King!
"I think it's a good fit. Don't underestimate Gohan; his current strength isn't much weaker than yours. You're probably at a crucial moment in your power breakthrough right now, aren't you? Don't you want to have a proper fight?" Lin Chuan said, seeing Piccolo's current situation.
Bick was taken aback, then scoffed a second later, retorting, "Could I take this as you trying to intimidate me? Or are you deliberately coming here to seek validation?"
Changing the subject, Bick joked, "If you'd like to fight me, I'd be happy to oblige."
"Huh?! You want me to fight with you? Are you sure?" Lin Chuan was somewhat impressed by Piccolo's courage.
However, during this period, Piccolo was indeed a player who rose to the occasion against stronger opponents and never gave up.
Whether it was when facing Vegeta and Nappa, or later when facing Frieza in his final form!
"Why not? You are indeed very strong, but for me, fighting you will allow me to see a broader world." Piccolo knew he couldn't possibly be a match for you, but he still said frankly.
At this point, communication was not difficult, so Bick did not object to Lin Chuan.
Although he was wary of Lin Chuan, once he was certain that the other party wasn't there to cause trouble, he didn't mind arguing a bit more.
Lin Chuan nodded after hearing what Bick said.
Although it was a request to be masochistic, since it was what the other person wanted, Lin Chuan didn't mind letting him experience his power.
"You want to fight me simply to find out how strong I am! So, there's no need for a proper match; I'll just show you."
"However, after the demonstration, I hope you can train with Gohan from now on... or rather, you can guide him on his future training path and help him hone his skills... I believe that with your insight, you will soon be able to see what he lacks."
