"Raditz, Selari, and Prince Vegeta, you've all grown up." Bardock's gaze swept over the three, filled with emotion.
"Yeah, Dad, it's been so many years after all," Raditz said, hands on his hips, as if it were obvious.
Looking at his eldest son, Bardock smiled with relief.
While looking at Raditz, he was also sensing his strength.
The current Raditz's strength was far beyond what it was ten years ago.
Ten years ago, he was the strongest besides Talot, and ten years later, he still was.
"I never thought we would meet again in this way," Vegeta said with emotion.
His words were very calm. As the Saiyan Prince, he was no stranger to Bardock.
Bardock's sensing was interrupted, and he nodded to Vegeta, "I've learned the specifics of the situation here from Talot. I owe it to him that I was able to return."
As he spoke, Bardock's expression changed slightly, and he looked up at the sky.
What was Talot doing at this moment?
Everyone's gaze followed his, looking up at the sky.
"Speaking of which, where's Talot? Bardock," Nappa asked with some naivety.
Bardock had returned, so what about Talot?!
"Uncle Bardock, where is Brother Talot now? Didn't he come back?" Selari asked, trying her best to control her emotions.
"The situation is complicated, let me start from the beginning," Bardock shook his head, and without hiding anything, he explained how he and Talot had traveled through the Time Tunnel and suddenly encountered a Time Storm.
Talot had sent him back first, facing the Time Storm alone.
"How could… this happen…" Hearing this, Selari's emotions became somewhat uncontrollable.
She was very happy that Bardock had returned, but she couldn't accept it if it meant exchanging him for Talot.
According to Whis, a journey through time and space was far more dangerous than she had imagined.
"Although I don't know how Talot will deal with the Time Storm, I believe he will be fine! That kid has mastered the power of time and space, and he's not weak now. The Time Storm can't do anything to him, but the difference in the flow of time might delay his return," Bardock said.
That was all he could say, otherwise, he would feel even more uneasy.
Besides choosing to believe, there was only belief.
...
On this side, Bardock escaped danger and returned to this time and space.
However, due to some accident, his return was ten years after Talot left.
The parallel time and space world where Talot was.
At this moment, Talot had just finished sighing when he suddenly sensed a familiar energy.
"This energy is… Kakarot? It seems that this place I arrived at in an emergency, crossing time and space, is also Earth."
As he spoke, Talot's gaze turned towards the source of the energy. In an area a dozen kilometers away, a fierce battle was taking place.
Although the energy intensity was only average to him, it had at least reached the hundreds of millions.
Using Instant Transmission, Talot didn't hesitate at all and chose to cross space to take a look.
He didn't directly choose to appear in front of the people of this time and space world, but instead came to a hidden edge of a rocky area.
Here, he saw many familiar faces.
The Z Fighters were all gathered together.
Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Krillin, Son Gohan, and Vegeta, who was hiding in the dark and hadn't shown himself.
"The guy in the sky is… Android 19?!" Talot gazed at the battle in the sky, and memories that had been sealed in his mind for many years were awakened.
There was no mistake, this fat guy was Android 19, who had luckily defeated Son Goku, who was suffering from viral heart disease in the original story, and was eventually abused and killed by Vegeta.
On the other side, there was also Android 20, Dr. Gero, who had transformed himself into a living android.
As a mad scientist, a weak human body could no longer meet his needs, so he abandoned his original weak body, transformed himself into an android, and gained great power.
With his thoughts returning, Talot continued to watch the battle between Son Goku and Android 19 in the sky.
Because the battle was too intense, coupled with the enormous burden the Super Saiyan transformation placed on the body, Son Goku's viral heart disease completely erupted.
At this point, Son Goku was already at the end of his rope, completely overwhelmed by Android 19.
Until the very end, his energy was absorbed, and the Super Saiyan state was completely dispelled.
If it continued, Son Goku would be killed by Android 19.
Outside the battlefield, the Z Fighters wanted to rescue Son Goku, but Android 20 wouldn't let them have their way.
Having witnessed the formidable strength of Android 19, everyone present assumed that Android 20 possessed even greater power, so they dared not act rashly.
Little did they know, this old man with one foot in the grave, even if he possessed some power, was just a paper tiger.
If Piccolo had realized this sooner, he could have taken care of this old guy in just a few rounds.
Just as Son Goku was constantly having his energy absorbed by Android 19, his life hanging by a thread, Vegeta, who had been hiding in the shadows, couldn't stand it any longer. He seized the opportunity and suddenly erupted, gathering power and kicking Android 19 away.
His sudden rescue caught everyone off guard except for Talot.
No one noticed that Vegeta had been watching the battle from the shadows all along.
After successfully rescuing Son Goku, Vegeta looked down at the dying Son Goku with a cold and arrogant expression.
"Even though your heart disease has erupted, you're still stubbornly fighting. You've completely disgraced the Super Saiyan name, Kakarot." Vegeta said expressionlessly, gathering power and kicking Son Goku towards the Z Fighters.
"Hmph! Vegeta? Since you want to intervene, I'll let you know that opposing me will be the biggest regret of your life. All your data has already been recorded in my database, including all your moves!" After being kicked by Vegeta, Android 19 stood up and said coldly.
As he spoke, he fiddled with his earring.
He wouldn't know that what awaited him next would be a torment more cruel than Hell.
"I see, so the data from my fight with Kakarot on Earth was recorded by you guys. However, that data is already outdated." Vegeta scoffed, dismissively.
He was no longer the Vegeta of the past. Now, he was confident in defeating all the opponents in this world.
"Heh heh... Guys who talk big never have a good ending. I'll let you understand what despair is later!!" Android 19 sneered.
After absorbing Son Goku's energy, he became overly confident.
Vegeta just smiled coldly upon hearing this.
He had already figured out how to deal with Android 19 next.
Son Goku couldn't unleash the full power of Super Saiyan because of his viral heart disease, but he was different.
After brutal training, he had also successfully mastered the Super Saiyan transformation, and his Super Saiyan was stronger than Kakarot's!!
At this moment, on the Z Fighters' side, Piccolo grabbed Son Goku and checked his condition.
"No wonder Son Goku lost to that guy. It must be because his viral heart disease flared up." Piccolo noticed the abnormality.
In his opinion, Son Goku in Super Saiyan form couldn't have lost so miserably.
It was because of the viral heart disease.
"But, didn't he already take the Special Medicine given by Future Trunks?" Krillin exclaimed.
Son Gohan, who was beside him, looked unsightly after hearing this: "Because Dad never felt unwell, he never took the Special Medicine."
Everyone understood after hearing this.
"Since that's the case, then leave Goku to me. I'll take him back to Mount Paozu for treatment. Anyway, with my strength, it's useless for me to stay here." Yamcha was a little scared, because he had been tricked by the Androids before and almost died, so he took the initiative to volunteer.
He thought that with his strength, he should be able to help with this Android crisis, but the cruel reality slapped him hard in the face.
Especially after being pierced through by Android 20 with one blow, giving him a chilling sensation, he directly recognized the reality.
Instead of staying here and being a burden, it was better to do something practical and take Son Goku back to Mount Paozu.
"That's all we can do for now, then I'll leave it to you." Piccolo saw through Yamcha's thoughts and handed Son Goku over to Yamcha.
Yamcha took Son Goku with both hands, nodded to the others, and used the Levitation Technique to leave the area.
Android 20 watched Son Goku leave, and said expressionlessly: "Even if you take him away, so what? It's just prolonging his life. In the end, nothing will change. You'll all have to die sooner or later."
"Say what you want." Piccolo said expressionlessly, not afraid of Android 20 at all.
He had already vaguely sensed that the strength of these Androids didn't seem as formidable as he had imagined.
It was just Son Goku's defeat that had brought some psychological pressure to them.
Just a little more observation, and they could know the specifics.
"Hmph hmph hmph... then let us witness it with our own eyes. When Android 19 kills Vegeta, I will have Android 19 eliminate all of you without exception, and then go and slaughter Son Goku," Android 20 said, not caring at all, even a little conceited.
In his opinion, Android 19 was more than enough to deal with everyone present.
Being able to defeat Son Goku, dealing with these small fries was no problem.
Anyway, they would all die in the end.
Hearing these words, everyone present was extremely angry, but helpless.
The Androids had no aura; they couldn't judge the enemy's strength through ki. If only the Androids had ki, Dr. Gero wouldn't have lived past three episodes!
This scene was also seen by Talot, who was hidden in the shadows.
"Judging from the current situation, it seems I've arrived in the timeline at the very beginning of the Android Saga... which means, even if I've changed so much, the original timeline still exists. I've only changed some timelines related to me," Talot said, casually taking out a pair of Virtual Glasses from his storage space.
Speaking of which, he hadn't used the Virtual Glasses for a while.
In the early stages, this thing was indeed very useful; it could be used to accurately judge the enemy's Battle Power and allow them to set the most accurate strategy.
But as his strength continued to increase, the Battle Power testing ability of the Virtual Glasses became somewhat useless.
Even the latest model of Virtual Glasses in his hand could only observe a Battle Power index limit of trillions.
Having become powerful to his level, even in Base Form, he had already exceeded the limit of measurement.
But using it in this era, for these rookies whose Base Form Battle Power hadn't even touched a fraction of a billion, these Virtual Glasses were a bit too overpowered.
Soon, Talot put on the Virtual Glasses.
As the Virtual Glasses calculated, he first saw Vegeta's Battle Power.
Vegeta in Base Form had a Battle Power of 10 million!
According to the Super Saiyan First Stage's 50-fold Battle Power increase, his Battle Power after transforming could reach just over 500 million.
And at this moment, Vegeta also began to mobilize the S-Cells in his body to transform into a Super Saiyan.
"Listen up, Android, before you die, I'll remind you, don't overly trust the data. I'm not like Kakarot; blindly trusting the data will lead to a burial ground!" Along with a low roar.
Vegeta's forehead veins bulged, the S-Cells in his body pulsed rapidly, and violent energy erupted from his body like a tsunami.
At this moment, his Battle Power increased explosively.
The earth shook, the wind surged, and the earth within a dozen kilometers was affected by this terrifying aura.
His flamboyant rocket-shaped hairstyle constantly switched between black and gold.
This terrifying aura immediately shocked everyone present except Talot.
"Vegeta, that guy, could it be that he has taken that step?!" Piccolo was so shocked that cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
He had only seen this kind of heaven-and-earth-changing phenomenon when Son Goku transformed into a Super Saiyan.
"It seems so, this aura... so strong!! Even more powerful than Goku's Super Saiyan!!" Tien Shinhan said with a look of horror.
"No!! This shouldn't be possible!! Shouldn't transforming into a Super Saiyan require a pure and peaceful heart?! How could Vegeta succeed?!" For Krillin, Vegeta's successful transformation into a Super Saiyan would be a huge disaster.
Even after many years, Vegeta was still the Prince who killed without blinking an eye in his eyes! As for the young Son Gohan, he was frightened and stood there, at a loss.
Soon, under the horrified and shocked gazes of everyone.
Vegeta completed his transformation, enveloped in a golden light.
Golden spiky hair, and a sturdy Battle Power reaching 500 million.
Its terrifying pressure was far from comparable to Son Goku's Super Saiyan transformation before.
The Vegeta before them had undoubtedly surpassed Son Goku! This was also one of the few times he had surpassed Son Goku. In the later plot, except for the great breakthrough after entering the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, he never walked ahead of Son Goku again.
