Chapter 909: [909] : Meeting Son Goku
Chapter 909: [909] : Meeting Son Goku
When Shin had unleashed his power... Vegeta, Piccolo, and the others had watched, completely stunned. They knew Shin was strong, but they had never imagined he was on this level. The enemies they had considered overwhelmingly powerful, Frieza and King Cold, had been casually annihilated by Shin in an instant.
Trunks nodded. "Even as a Super Saiyan, I’m nowhere near his level. He defeated me."
This infuriated Vegeta. The Super Saiyans were a superior race, the greatest warriors in the universe. How could one of them lose to an Earthling?
Vegeta sneered. "Have you no Saiyan pride?"
Trunks hadn’t expected his words to strike such a nerve with Vegeta. The current era was different from the one twenty years in the future. In Trunks’s time, he and Gohan were Super Saiyans, but they were powerless, hunted and killed at will by Androids 17 and 18.
Now, however, the term "Super Saiyan" was practically a synonym for invincibility.
Trunks tried to explain, but Vegeta gave him no chance.
At that moment, a small spaceship descended from the sky. Not wanting to argue with Vegeta any longer, Trunks simply said, "Son Goku is here."
Vegeta could indeed sense Goku’s energy. He nodded. "Fine. We’ll see Goku first. Then you can explain what you’re doing here."
The other Z-Fighters were just as confused, but with Goku’s arrival, their confidence returned. To them, Goku represented the pinnacle of their strength. As long as he was alive, they could defeat any enemy.
Goku, dressed in a spacesuit, walked toward them, his expression one of surprise. Besides the familiar ki of his friends, he had also sensed three strange presences. The girl’s power level wasn’t that high, but Trunks and Shin gave him a sense of unease.
Goku approached Shin. "Who are you? You’re not from Earth, are you?"
Faced with Goku’s direct question, Shin wasn’t sure how to explain. Should he just say he was from another world?
Shin spoke. "You’re right, I’m not from Earth. But I have a lot to tell you. Can we speak in private?"
Nearby, Trunks nodded in agreement. Goku went over to greet Piccolo and Krillin, and Krillin immediately threw his arms around him in a hug.
Only Vegeta stood apart, shooting Goku a look of cold disdain. In his eyes, he was the prince of all Saiyans, while Goku was merely the descendant of a low-class warrior. Wasting time with someone like him was beneath his dignity.
Goku, with his naturally carefree personality, didn’t pay Vegeta any mind and walked over to Shin.
"Let’s talk over there. The fewer people who hear this, the better," Shin said.
Goku nodded. Shin, Trunks, Goku, and the silent Kushina walked to the side.
Kushina trusted Shin completely. She was just waiting for him to speak, ready to back him up. She wasn’t one for idle chatter.
They moved away from the group, and Goku said, "Alright, you can tell me what you’re here for. I have a feeling it’s not good."
Goku’s words surprised Shin. It seemed Goku wasn’t the mindless fighting machine the manga sometimes portrayed him as. On the contrary, he had an incredibly sharp intuition.
Shin didn’t beat around the bush. "We’re from twenty years in the future. We’re all from Earth. This is Trunks—he’s the son of an old friend of yours, and he’s a Super Saiyan."
To prove his point, Trunks immediately transformed into a Super Saiyan.
This shocked Goku. As far as he knew, he was the only Super Saiyan in existence.
"The son of an old friend? Could it be...?"
The only person he could think of was Vegeta. Vegeta’s son?
"Then who is Vegeta’s wife?"
"Bulma," Trunks replied.
At the mention of Bulma, Goku was stunned. Bulma was the first friend he had ever made, and their bond was deep. Her and Vegeta?
Shin spoke up again. "We don’t have time for this. In twenty years, Earth will face a terrifying attack. Two androids, created by a certain doctor you’ve crossed paths with, will bring humanity to the brink of extinction."
He laid out the grim future: the deaths of Goku’s friends—Vegeta, Piccolo, Krillin—and the near-total destruction of Earth. He then explained that Androids 17 and 18 were absorbed by a being named Cell, and that they couldn’t defeat him. Shin had no choice but to travel back to this time to find Goku and stop the threat before it could even begin.
Hearing Shin’s story, Goku nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. He had to act. Everything he did was for the sake of Earth’s peace. He couldn’t stand by and watch that peace be destroyed by a bunch of villains.
"Alright, I’ll do it. What do you need me to do?" Goku asked.
At that moment, the System’s voice echoed in Shin’s mind.
[Side Mission: Ask Son Goku to teach you ’Instant Transmission.’ Within one year, achieve a power level capable of defeating a Super Saiyan 2.]
[Upon completion, you will gain the ability to transform into a Super Saiyan.]
’HOLY CRAP! I CAN BECOME A SUPER SAIYAN?’
A Super Saiyan in the world of Naruto?
Shin was intrigued. But he also knew it would be difficult. In the original story, it took Goku years to barely become a Super Saiyan. To reach the strength of a Super Saiyan 2 in just one year wouldn’t be easy. But that was what made it a challenge. If it were too easy, what would be the point?
Shin immediately turned to Goku. "Right now, I need you to use your influence to get all the warriors on Earth to train as hard as they can, to push their limits."
"But honestly, no matter how strong the others get, it won’t be enough. It all comes down to you and Vegeta. If the two of you can reach the second form of Super Saiyan, you should be able to handle them."
"The second form of Super Saiyan?"
Goku was stunned. He didn’t even know there was a second form.
Shin quickly explained. "Super Saiyan 2 is achieved by channeling even more anger than the first form. It increases your power by a hundred times. A Super Saiyan 2 could destroy the Earth with a flick of a finger."
