Chapter 68 The Foreseen Future, The Approaching Warrior
Namek.
At the top of a cliff somewhere in the Middle East.
A huge, uniquely shaped white round house sits here.
This is where the highest-ranking elder of Namek resides.
Normally, the Grand Elder would be sleeping at this time.
But today, the Grand Elder did not fall asleep. Instead, he sensed the arrival of certain people and summoned Neru, who was guarding him.
He was so old that he could no longer move freely.
As his lifespan was nearing its end, he used his inherited special ability to foresee the future.
Having glimpsed the edges and corners of the future, he thought he would have to endure a period of hardship before he could truly unload the burden on his shoulders.
But unexpectedly, a strange change occurred.
In his sleep over the past few days, he has been having a series of dreams, with new images constantly appearing in his mind.
Let him know that the future he thought he had foreseen for so long is undergoing tremendous changes due to the emergence of some unstable factors.
"Elder, what are your orders?" Neru asked respectfully as he stood before the Elder.
As the most outstanding warrior among the Namekians!
He had been guarding the Grand Elder since he came of age, ensuring the Grand Elder's safety.
"Naru...we've welcomed some alien guests to our Namek..."
As the words were uttered, the weak voice revealed that the Grand Elder was already much the same age as he would be a year later.
That's true, Namekians are known for their long lifespan.
In a year or two, there won't be much change.
Therefore, although he still had more than a year to live, it was insignificant compared to the Grand Elder's long lifespan.
Upon hearing this, Neru immediately realized what was happening and earnestly asked, "Could it be that the crisis of annihilation that you predicted in the past, Elder, is about to arrive?"
Annihilation crisis!
Indeed, this was a great calamity for the Namekians.
The Grand Elder himself said it, which also shows that the Namekians on their own could not solve the crisis.
However, the prophecy at the time stated that in times of crisis, powerful alien warriors would appear to help them defeat their formidable enemy.
"No... the time for the crisis to arrive has not yet come..."
"The alien guests who have come this time are not enemies. At least their auras are not tainted with evil... Moreover, I sensed that among them is one of our people who has been separated for so long..."
"They're not here to invade, so Neru, go and meet them... to avoid unnecessary conflict, bring them directly to me."
"Perhaps, future crises will be better resolved because of the arrival of this group of people."
The elder gave instructions to Neruru.
These words made Neru's heart tighten.
He knew this matter couldn't be handled lightly, but he also had to carry out the Grand Elder's orders.
"Yes, Elder. I'll go right away!"
Turning around, Neru walked out of the Grand Elder's room with a heavy heart.
Once outside, he addressed his two companions who were also guarding the Grand Elder, saying, "I need to go out and carry out the task assigned to me by the Grand Elder, so I'll temporarily leave the guard duty to you two."
"Don't worry! We will protect the Elder."
"Go ahead, Neru."
The two nodded.
The next second, Neru soared into the sky and left.
He already knew where the target was, and with the Elder's spiritual guidance, he wouldn't go astray.
……
the other side.
After gliding hundreds of miles through the sky, the spaceship finally stabilized and landed at the designated location.
As the spaceship landed, the hatch opened quickly, and five people stepped out of the spaceship one after another.
Because Namek is a planet formed by the aggregation of countless islands, at first glance it looks like entering an infinitely looping world.
Although each island is different, they are also quite similar.
"Is this the real landscape of Namek? It's pretty much the same as what you described before, but looking at the environment here, it doesn't seem as desolate and barren as you said."
"A considerable number of plants and animals still survive, don't they?"
Bulma immediately took in her surroundings and asked Lin Chuan a question.
All the information they had so far was given to them verbally by Lin Chuan.
Now that I see it with my own eyes, there are still some differences.
"What I'm saying is just what I know. The information is probably correct. It's rumored that Namek experienced a mass extinction a long time ago. Very few Namekians survived that disaster. I think Piccolo was sent to Earth around the time of that disaster."
"As for why this planet is in its current state and is teeming with life, I think it must be related to the Namekians."
As Lin Chuan spoke, he looked into the distance.
He sensed someone rapidly approaching through his senses.
They must have seen the arrival of the spaceship and therefore came to investigate.
The opponent was extremely well hidden. It was only because Lin Chuan was exceptionally strong and immediately enveloped the entire globe with his aura that he was able to detect them.
Nearby, Gohan and Chi-Chi shared their thoughts, following Lin Chuan and Bulma.
Lin Chuan didn't respond, because what he said was all about his evaluation of the Namekian environment and his thoughts on the planet.
He does share common ground with Bulma.
What about Bick?
At this moment, he calmed down and looked around at his surroundings. Perhaps it was instinct, or perhaps it was a fragment of memory flashing through his inherited memories.
The scene evoked a feeling he couldn't quite describe.
"We're almost there. Everyone, snap out of your daze for now. Especially you, Bick, your people are here. Get ready to meet them." Lin Chuan smiled slightly, sensing the incredibly close aura, and reminded everyone.
Most importantly, of course, it was a joke made about Bick.
Upon hearing this, Bick was startled. He expanded his senses and indeed detected a very powerful aura approaching.
Actually, this is largely thanks to the fact that his strength is now far beyond what it used to be; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to lock onto the target so quickly with his aura.
Bick is no longer the same Bick he was six days ago.
After six days of space travel and six days of gravity training, Piccolo and Gohan completed their training under sixty times gravity.
The gravity was increased tenfold every day, and although it only reached sixty times the normal gravity, it still caused the two of them to make rapid progress in their strength.
With Lin Chuan's guidance, they fought against each other and successfully unleashed some of their potential.
Overall, although it didn't reach as high as expected, Piccolo's power level reached 45000 points, and Gohan's power level also broke through to 32000 points.
Of course, this rapid breakthrough was also related to Lin Chuan giving them some Senzu Beans.
Tired, sleepy, or injured? Just give them a Senzu Bean, and they'll be fully restored to health and their strength will increase dramatically.
Therefore, exploiting bugs is not a privilege reserved for Saiyans.
