Piccolo appeared with a time machine.

Chapter 99 Piccolo appeared with a time machine.

BOOM!!!

A heart-stopping sound of flesh being pierced rang out.

With just a casual punch, Lin Chuan severely injured Vegeta, causing him to kneel on the ground, clutching his abdomen and spitting out blood.

Vegeta never imagined that Lin Chuan would suddenly attack him, and with such ruthlessness that he almost lost consciousness.

If it hadn't happened so suddenly, and if his mental strength hadn't been so resilient, constantly oscillating between a fierce battle and recovery from serious injuries, he doubted he would have fainted from that punch and actually died.

"Not bad at all. After taking that punch from me, you were able to maintain some level of cognitive ability."

"You should know that your current combat power is only 10 points."

Lin Chuan nodded slightly in satisfaction, a glint of surprise in his eyes.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a super cockroach.

In the original work, Vegeta fully demonstrated his outstanding qualities, repeatedly enduring deadly attacks and managing to escape death each time.

"You...you're going to kill me...wait..." Vegeta managed to utter just a few simple words, but they took all his strength.

Another mouthful of blood gushed out, and Vegeta felt his vision become extremely blurry, as if he was about to give up and really go to the underworld to report to the afterlife at any moment.

"If you want to get stronger, then you have to persevere! You need to know that the longer you persevere, the longer you hover on the edge of death, the greater your strength will be after you recover."

"Kakarot and Raditz have power levels of 300 million and 160 million respectively. What about you? Your current power level is only 10. If you don't pay a price, do you think you still have a chance to catch up with them?"

Lin Chuan stepped forward and kicked him away again.

Vegeta won't die so easily; he'll persevere.

Surpass Raditz, surpass Kakarot!

This is the belief he holds now.

As for surpassing Lin Chuan? Vegeta probably doesn't have that kind of ambition yet!

No matter what, his combat power is less than a million. Raditz and Kakarot are far ahead of him, so why would they think of him?

Having suffered a series of heavy blows, Vegeta had reached his limit.

But as Lin Chuan said, he did not collapse; he remained conscious.

That pitiful princely dignity was desperately holding Vegeta together.

We must not fall!

Can't die!

He wants to become stronger!

He wants to surpass Kakarot, surpass Raditz!

Finally, he transformed into a Super Saiyan and surpassed Talos!

His consciousness continued to drift into darkness, and Vegeta's eyes were almost losing their color.

The body lay there motionless, yet it kept muttering something.

Nobody knows what Vegeta is going through right now.

He was caught in a loop of memories.

Seeing this, Lin Chuan stepped forward to confirm it before nodding leisurely.

"That's about it! You'll have to thank me afterwards, because if I hadn't done this, it would have been extremely difficult for your strength to suddenly increase so dramatically." Muttering to himself, Lin Chuan raised his hand and cast a healing spell on Vegeta.

This move is a healing technique inherited from the Namekian race, and it's one of the abilities Lin Chuan obtained when he made a wish on Namek for the second time.

You said that when you made your first wish, didn't you receive a healing power?

Indeed it is!

But that's self-healing, not external healing.

This healing technique is for external use. As long as one has enough power, one can repair all the injuries on others. As long as the person does not die, even severed limbs can be regenerated.

His injuries healed rapidly, and Vegeta's consciousness was almost completely swallowed by darkness.

Suddenly, a beam of light came from above, enveloped him, and quickly brought him back.

Vegeta was stunned when he could see the scene clearly again, and when he saw Lin Chuan raise his hand towards him, releasing a strange energy.

He recovered already?

and……

Feeling the surge of power within his body, Vegeta gasped, then became excited.

Is this his power?!

This power is at least ten times stronger than 10 combat power!

"It seems the effect is quite good. Your potential has not disappointed me. In terms of combat power, you have already surpassed Raditz," Lin Chuan said.

No one knows better than him how strong Vegeta is now.

A single brush with death brought Vegeta to a power level of 200 million.

If Raditz knew this now, he would be furious.

He went through so much arduous training, and with the help of the Namekian Elder's potential development, and after recovering from a serious injury, he finally reached 160 million points.

Vegeta, however, used a death-defying technique to overtake him.

Ultimately, if it weren't for the fact that it was exactly like the original story, Lin Chuan would also suspect that this was some kind of cheat code.

Vegeta's potential is indeed terrifying.

Speaking of which, Kakarot's potential is even more incredible. After being swapped with Ginyu, he experienced a brush with death and was healed, reaching a combat power of 300 million points.

It's safe to say he has the protagonist's halo, the halo of the male lead and the second male lead, and he's always so dazzling no matter what.

"Hmph!! I won't thank you! So you'd better not pray that I'll be grateful to you." Vegeta's arrogance was on full display once again.

The prince's pride and arrogance reached their peak.

He didn't even consider that even if his strength increased dramatically, he would still be no match for Lin Chuan in a single blow.

However, if Vegeta didn't do this, he wouldn't be Vegeta.

"You're overthinking it. I don't need your thanks! I just think that since you've survived and come to Earth, you might become one of my rivals in the future." Lin Chuan used his words to put Vegeta down in the face of his arrogance.

Everyone has arrogance!

Hearing Lin Chuan's words, Vegeta snorted coldly: "Now you can tell me how Raditz and Kakarot became stronger, right? Don't tell me it was just by recovering from serious injuries?! I don't believe it! I tested them before. Although they knew that Saiyans could recover from serious injuries and increase their strength, they didn't know it could be this much."

Vegeta changed the subject and asked directly.

He used to be very calm, but now that his strength has increased, he's starting to get impatient.

"It's simple! Gravity training, plus daily sparring." Lin Chuan smiled and then gestured for Vegeta to follow.

Taking Vegeta to undergo gravity training is essential.

In the original work, he also fully developed this cultivation path.

Let's see if Vegeta can surpass Gokarot and Raditz in one go and become the first Super Saiyan.

……

Having resolved Vegeta's problem, Lin Chuan finally had some time to rest.

Back home, he found Bulma still sulking.

More than a month has passed, and it's not something that can be easily appeased with a few words.

However, Bulma wasn't the kind of person to be unreasonable, so after Lin Chuan's persistent pleading and gentle persuasion, she managed to win him over perfectly.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder; Lin Chuan finally understood the meaning of this saying.

Indeed, after a short separation, the desire and satisfaction in that area can be overwhelming when you're alone together afterward.

It wasn't as exaggerated as seven times a night, but it happened several times.

If it weren't for his exceptional strength and superb physique, he really wouldn't have been able to hold on.

For several days afterward, Lin Chuan spent all his time with Bulma.

He neither trained nor paid any attention to Raditz and Goku coming to find him.

Raditz also told Goku how to transform into a Super Saiyan, and it was clear that they had both tried several times, but all of them failed.

In the following days, they learned about Vegeta's situation and, unwilling to give up, joined a new round of training.

Their goal is undoubtedly to become a Super Saiyan, and then surpass Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan felt no pressure whatsoever regarding this.

His normal combat strength has been continuously improving, already exceeding 40 million points, and is heading towards 50 million points.

With a combat strength of tens of millions, they would have plenty to cultivate.

On this day, Raditz and Vegeta were training as usual, while Goku had realized something and began to resent training under gravity.

Just like in the original story, he seemed to understand that once a certain kind of cultivation had been sustained for a long time, it couldn't be relied on indefinitely, otherwise the later effects wouldn't be very good.

After understanding the situation, Lin Chuan received an accurate answer from Sun Wukong.

Firstly, because Lin Chuan didn't practice gravity training much to improve his strength later on, he also wanted to forge his own path.

Secondly, he wanted to go to Planet Adela to learn teleportation, something Lin Chuan had promised him long ago.

Having confirmed Sun Wukong's decision, Lin Chuan didn't hesitate.

They sent him to Planet Adela and greeted the Grand Elder there.

He won't go to pick up Sun Wukong; Sun Wukong will go back on his own after he learns teleportation.

As for when he will learn it, that depends on his own talent.

Lin Chuan felt that he would only learn it much faster now than the original author had taken so long.

With comparison comes challenge, and with challenge comes greater motivation.

……

After seeing Sun Wukong off, Lin Chuan did not immediately return to Earth.

Instead, they arrived at the North Kaiser Star in the underworld.

It's been almost a month and a half since we last parted ways.

If Lin Chuan hadn't been by Bulma's side ever since returning to Earth, and if he hadn't wanted to rest, he would have come to find King Kai long ago.

Looking for King Kai?

Naturally, it was to learn from him.

At least, this is the only high-ranking god you can contact in the early stages.

Even if he can't compare to the Supreme Kai, he's still a Supreme Kai.

King North was utterly bewildered by Lin Chuan's arrival.

He originally thought that Lin Chuan's promise to come find him before he left last time was just a casual remark, but little did he know that he really meant to come find him.

After some conversation, Lin Chuan told the North Realm King his purpose and showed him the life energy he had cultivated.

This left King Kai completely bewildered.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chuan, this Saiyan, is already heading in the direction of God.

They even went further than him.

Although these Realm Kings passed down their lineage from generation to generation, many of their traditions have been lost by today.

Lin Chuan believed this, after all, the Supreme Kai of Universe 7 was known throughout the universe as the most useless Supreme Kai, and that Supreme Kai Shin had not even cultivated divine power.

"So, not only can you not guide me, but my cultivation method is actually useful to you?" This was something Lin Chuan never expected.

Little did he know that the training method that Boronga gave him could actually compensate for King Kai's training method.

"Not entirely! In other words, the cultivation method you obtained, combined with our Realm King's cultivation method, might be able to create an even more complete divine power cultivation method."

"It may still be incomplete, but compared to an even more incomplete cultivation method, the fused cultivation method will definitely be more effective."

The Northern King said solemnly.

The suggestion was good, and Lin Chuan was somewhat tempted.

To be honest, my first purpose in coming to King Kai's planet was to improve myself with the help of King Kai.

As for the other one, it's naturally to see if we can reach the higher realm of gods, the realm of the Supreme Kai.

To be honest, he didn't dare to get involved easily before, firstly because he was not strong enough, and secondly because the plot was progressing and there were too many things to do.

Now, he needs to break through his limits more quickly, and going to the Supreme Kai realm is inevitable.

Shin, the Supreme Kai from the East, appeared in the original Majin Buu Saga and was as powerful as Piccolo from the same period.

But in terms of divine status, Sin is higher than Bick, therefore stronger.

He surpassed Piccolo, but was still weaker than the Demon King Dabura!

According to what Goku and Vegeta told Shin, the Supreme Kai of the East, Dabura is only comparable to Perfect Cell, which means that Dabura's fighting power is at most tens of billions!

So, to put it bluntly, Supreme Kai Shin's power level is no more than 50 billion.

Even in his previous life, Lin Chuan had made a prediction, saying that if he said it exceeded 5 billion, that would be giving him face, and that it would hover around 2 to 3 billion.

Lin Chuan's current strength, when at full power, allows him to fight against beings with a combined value exceeding three billion! And he is absolutely confident that he will not be at a disadvantage!

Therefore, we are confident that the idea of ​​creating the Outer World of Gods will come to fruition.

"In that case, let's give it a try. Maybe it will actually be good for both of us after the fusion." Lin Chuan agreed to the North Realm King's suggestion.

For him, this cultivation method was not actually that valuable.

It is indeed possible to cultivate high-level life energy, but it is extremely difficult.

If Lin Chuan didn't constantly gain new insights and continuously improve his strength, this cultivation method alone wouldn't be of much use.

In other words, even if this training method were given to Goku, Raditz, and Vegeta, they might not be able to achieve anything from it.

"Then let's share the essence of our cultivation methods and learn from each other's strengths." The Northern Realm King was no longer as relaxed and lazy as usual.

At least this was an opportunity for him to improve his cultivation level.

Despite living for so long, the Kings of the Realms don't have to do anything; they only need to maintain the order of their respective galaxies.

But in reality, they are all constantly improving themselves, otherwise they will be eliminated by the times.

Furthermore, King Kai has always been seeking a breakthrough.

The four Realm Kings never let their guard down for a single day.

The reason is simple: the BoJack gang, who were causing chaos in the four galaxies, were sealed away back then, which greatly reduced the power of the four Supreme Kais.

If they become weak, the seal will be broken.

At that time, the criminals who wreak havoc on the universe will be out of control, and they will be unable to stop them.

Ultimately, all four Supreme Kais are extremely powerful beings, only inferior to the Supreme Kais.

In the original story, if King Kai hadn't sealed BoJack's gang, he would at least be at the Emperor level.

Instead of that pitiful 3500 combat power.

If he only has 3500 points, the Ginyu Force could probably kill him.

He didn't just ignore them; he casually let the Z Warriors practice on them.

……

He sat down with the King of the Northern Boundary to discuss the law.

Learning from each other's strengths and making up for each other's weaknesses has indeed had a remarkable effect. Lin Chuan gained new insights and also understood why his life energy could not be purified to this point.

It's not that his body is full, but that he has been storing this energy without using it.

It's like possessing a treasure trove, yet having no idea what it is.

These life energies can be used to cleanse the marrow through the I Ching, tempering one's physical strength and enhancing one's soul and spiritual power.

In simple terms, this power, though not divine, contains the breath of life and possesses the power of creation.

Time flies by in the blink of an eye.

Another day has passed.

Lin Chuan did not stay on North Kaido, but returned to Earth.

Having promised Bulma that he would come home no matter how late it was, Lin Chuan had to keep his word.

Unless, you give prior notice before you go out to cultivate.

But for now, he won't be going away for an extended period.

Otherwise, it's only been a few days?

Bulma is really hard to fool when she's angry.

In the original story, Vegeta was with her and he was always training, but he was training in the gravity chamber at home.

In the evening, Lin Chuan and Bulma went out for a rare outing, shopping, having dinner, and finally watching a movie.

I got to experience Bulma's extravagant spending habits.

In his previous life, he would have been completely kept and made a gigolo.

Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people in this world, he would probably be considered a pretty boy.

No one else knows who he is, or what kind of person he is!

It was already late at night when I got home.

After washing up, the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

……

The next morning.

Lin Chuan was awakened by the sound of fighting.

Bulma also showed displeasure.

So early in the morning, you're just foolishly looking for trouble.

They took Raditz and Vegeta in to train here, and the two of them fight each other countless times every day.

They fight, fine, but they always end up exchanging sarcastic remarks after a couple of blows... Their words have practically spread throughout the entire manor.

Unable to bear it any longer, Lin Chuan indeed made his move, quickly and easily killing the two, leaving them questioning their existence.

Vegeta and Raditz now have to admit that they have to acknowledge Lin Chuan's abilities.

What can you do if someone has a bigger fist?

Since they couldn't win a fight, they had no choice but to obey.

After teaching Vegeta and Raditz a lesson, Lin Chuan also began his training.

And once again, we arrived at King Kai's North...

Yesterday's discussion gave Lin Chuan some valuable insights, and his skills improved as well.

This also made Lin Chuan realize that the North King was indeed something special, so he hoped to get more from him.

Most importantly, the combination of the two cultivation methods is more complete, which not only helps Lin Chuan condense life energy more quickly, but also allows him to temper his body and soul more easily.

And so it went, over and over again.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

For the past two weeks, during the daytime on Earth, Lin Chuan has been training with the North Kai on North Kai's planet.

In the evening, he would return home to spend time with Bulma.

Over time, his relationship with Bulma has grown stronger.

Bulma even brought up the topic of marriage.

Every woman has this dream: who wouldn't want to wear a wedding dress and marry the man they love?

In the original story, Bulma and Vegeta never had a wedding.

Lin Chuan did not refuse.

As a time traveler, he was also a very traditional person. Since they were together, marriage was an important process that the man and woman had to go through.

Of course, it won't be immediately.

Bulma needs to prepare and make arrangements.

Even if it doesn't need to be a grand or eye-catching event, it should at least be presentable.

Naturally, Lin Chuan had no idea how Bulma could be considered acceptable.

……

this day.

Lin Chuan did not go to North King Kai's planet again.

For no other reason than Bick came knocking on our door, so we had to stop for a while.

This means that Piccolo hasn't come looking for him for a month since returning from Namek.

"You mean, the reason you haven't come to see me for the past month is because you've been investigating the androids?" He stared at Piccolo with a surprised look.

Lin Chuan hadn't expected Bick to be so persistent and serious.

Even he hadn't thought to pay attention to this matter now, but Bick kept it in mind, seemingly afraid that something big might happen in the future.

While everyone else thought peace had arrived, Bick took on the responsibility, preparing to find the androids that Lin Xue had mentioned in her message.

Nip the crisis in the bud!

This is Bick.

"Although we didn't gather much intelligence, we did obtain a lot of useful information. The androids that your future daughter, Lin Xue, mentioned are likely related to the former Red Ribbon Army."

"Of course, that's not the main reason I came to find you. During my investigation, I've been secretly visiting various parts of the world and discovered something very strange!"

"On the three continents of the earth, east, west, and south, there are many remote towns where people and livestock disappeared overnight! Apart from clothes scattered on the ground, not a single trace was left."

"Then, I followed the scent all the way and finally found something interesting!"

As he spoke, Bick pulled a multi-purpose capsule from his pocket.

Then, with a press of his hand and a flick of his wrist, a time machine appeared in front of Lin Chuan.

Good guy!

Although I already have a general idea of ​​what happened from what Bick said.

But when Lin Chuan saw Piccolo find the time machine Cell had brought, he exclaimed, "Wow!"

This is something he doesn't need to do anything for Piccolo to change the course of the story.

However, after this idea came to him, Lin Chuan became serious about it.

Because he had to be serious!

It's not because of Cell, but because of this time machine.

Given the world he has already altered, time machines should no longer exist.

Lin Chuan had previously wondered whether Trunks might still exist, or whether he might have come from the future to this past world.

After all, Lin Xue's arrival has completely overturned the original course of the world.

Now, time machines have appeared... This means that anything is possible in the future.

Even more, spacetime has become disordered, with strange intersections occurring between parallel worlds in different timelines.

"Do you know what this is?" Bick asked as he saw Lin Chuan carefully examining the strange machine.

He rarely saw Lin Chuan looking serious; his current demeanor was just like when Lin Chuan first met his future daughter.

This thing definitely has a problem.

Upon hearing Bick's question, Lin Chuan slowly shook his head.

Even if he knew, he would have to pretend he didn't.

Otherwise, how did he know that?

"Perhaps Bulma would know what this is? What I'm interested in is the shell left inside this machine! If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the eggshell of some kind of creature," Lin Chuan changed the subject.

Bick nodded. "I think so too. I doubt it's a spaceship, is it? It's too small. Besides, it has the Capsule Corp. logo on it, so it must be a product of our Earth."

"You suspect this is from the future?" Lin Chuan asked, feigning ignorance.

"It's not a doubt, it's that I've already investigated. This machine wasn't made by Capsule Corporation! At least, it's not available on the market. And see the moss and signs of use on it? This machine is at least several years old." Bick's intelligence is truly remarkable.

He already possessed such a complete set of logic on his own.

Of course, this should also be because Lin Xue traveled from the future to this era, which gave Bick great inspiration.

"That makes sense. Let's let Bulma take a look first." Lin Chuan nodded and didn't give any further reply.

He took her into his storage space and then, together with Piccolo, went to the research institute and found Bulma.

When Bulma saw the damaged time machine, her first reaction was disbelief.

Not only her, but also Brif's face showed an expression of disbelief.

The reason is simple: Capsule Corporation has never invented such a product.

Especially since it was made many years ago, it's even more impossible.

After a thorough examination and study, both Bulma and Brief were greatly shocked.

Because they came to two conclusions.

The first conclusion is that this special machine was indeed built by Capsule Corporation, but it was definitely not made by Brief and Bulma at this time.

The second result is that this special machine has reached an unprecedented level of precision. Furthermore, by using the decryption program and code number to test various devices, it was discovered that this thing is not a product of this era, but comes from the future!

The machine created by Capsule Corporation in the future has traveled to this era.

The atmosphere became very strange.

The fact that something like this appeared in this era indicates that something must have happened in the future.

Bulma immediately thought of Lin Xue.

Lin Chuan knew exactly what was going on, but he couldn't say it outright.

Moreover, he is not entirely certain at the moment.

"Now that it's confirmed that this machine is from the future..."

"Then it's certain that the thing that arrived in this machine is a creature from the future."

"Then, why would beings from the future come to this time and space?"

Bick's dilemma is different from others.

At this point, even though he had not yet assimilated with the god Piccolo, he already had the idea of ​​protecting the Earth.

The Great Demon King no longer exists.

"I can take some samples for gene comparison to see what kind of creature this is."

"It will take a little time! I have reserves of all kinds of life on Earth."

Bulma Road.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Bick nodded, as if entrusting someone with an important task.

Although, he probably guessed that this was not a known creature.

After all, the monsters that emerged from here involved the disappearance of humans and animals out of thin air.

That alone is terrifying enough.

He would be unable to eat or sleep if he didn't investigate thoroughly.

"Piccolo, you don't need to worry so much. Since things are like this, everything needs to be investigated! With my abilities, I will also use my aura to cover the Earth and keep a close watch on it at all times."

"If a lot of the energy suddenly disappears from a certain place, it means the target is there," Lin Chuan said.

Give Cell a chance to grow?

Lin Chuan felt it was unnecessary.

It's not that he doesn't want to create an opponent for himself, but what if Cell grows into Lightning Cell a few years later?

Lin Chuan is confident that he can achieve a combat power of 10 billion within the next year!

Therefore, instead of getting distracted by little Cell, it's better to deal with him quickly.

The saying goes that we should have a long-term vision and not just focus on the present.

Even if the Cell storyline takes place four years later...

"That's good! I feel relieved to have you with me." Bick's words left Lin Chuan both amused and exasperated.

He finally understood one of the reasons why Bick had sought him out: he wanted him to take action quickly and resolve this hidden trouble.

After all, Bick had heard Lin Xue describe the future.

In the future, the person who looks exactly like him will be the real enemy.

……

At this moment.

Somewhere on Earth.

A green-skinned monster, emanating a nauseating odor, is hiding in the mountains.

His biological instincts told him that he needed to hide for a while.

He was none other than Cell from the future, who had just hatched from his shell.

He is still in the first stage of physical development.

They came from the future to this era in order to absorb the past generations of Android 17 and 18 and complete their final evolution.

Originally, his plan was very meticulous: first, devour humans from the past world to rapidly increase his strength, then find Dr. Gro from this era and have him send him to become Android 17 and 18.

However, to his surprise, he had only devoured a dozen or so small towns before being locked onto by Piccolo in this timeline.

Although Piccolo in this era is far less powerful than his future self, his current strength has degenerated, leaving him with only the most basic abilities.

Only by constantly devouring living beings can he quickly become stronger.

But he cannot reveal himself.

As far as he knew, all the Z Fighters in this era were in a developmental stage, and their strength was probably similar to that of Piccolo, who was locked onto him, all of them were rapidly becoming stronger.

If he were to reveal himself easily, he would surely be killed.

"Damn it! You bastard Piccolo! How did you manage to detect me?!"

"Don't give me a chance! Once I become stronger, the first person I'll kill will be you!"

"At that time, you will all be my nourishment!"

……

I'm begging for votes and tips.
