My eyes snapped open. Flinging myself off the ground, I found myself to be within a large, white void. Off in the distance, I saw what looked like a tea set and a table. I walked slowly towards the set, only for it to seemingly get farther away. I ran at it, but it continued to elude me. Finally, I gave the run my all and slammed into a pillar that had suddenly spring up in front of me. "Son of a-" I was cut off by a hand on my shoulders. Slowly turning, I was confronted by what looked to be a feeble old man. However, the way he carried himself was anything but. With just a glance from him, I felt an overwhelming urge to run, as if this one old man could end every molecule in my body many times over. I shivered, allowing myself to get off of my ass, before turning to the old man. Shakily, I spoke.
"Should we… sit?"
The man nodded, and slowly walked towards the table. Pulling back his seat, he gestured for me to do the same. We sat down, and the man spoke for the first time. "Welcome, my son, to the afterlife. You can choose to reincarnate, or to live here for a while, either way, you will eventually reincarnate."
I nodded numbly, the words he just spoke spinning through my head. "If I may, sir…" I raised my head and looked him in the eyes. "How did I die?"
The man, most likely a god, held his chin thoughtfully, peering into the seemingly endless void, before bursting into laughter. "Oh, my boy. I don't know if you want to know-how. It's kind of embarrassing." I grimaced and told the man I truly wanted to know. His laughter just barely being suppressed, he took in a gulp of air and started to speak. "Let's see. You were out running and listening to music on your iPhone 7, before tripping over a rock, hitting your head. This didn't kill you, but it hurt. However, that night when you went to take a dump, the concussion you got took effect, knocking you out, and causing you to drown in the toilet!" With this last statement, the man roared out in laughter, tripping over his chair. I felt my face get hot, and then stood up, and asked to reincarnate. He nodded and spoke words I never thought I would hear. "So… What is your one wish?" My jaw dropped. "A wish?" The man let a small smile playfully slide onto his lips. "Yes, one wish. Then I will allow you to reincarnate to any Universe you want." My eyes widen before I stop for a second. Carefully I ask, "Can I wish for absolutely anything?" The man nodded, and without a second thought, these words burst from my mouth. "I wish for infinite wishes!"
The man nodded, saying only "Granted." I reeled backward, surprised. "I can't believe that worked!" The man nodded. "Congratulations on such an "original" wish. Honestly, I can't believe two people figured it out within the same month." That last part was muttered so silently that I saw his lips move, but did not understand what he said. I shook my head, repressing the thought, before eagerly standing up. With just a couple of thoughts, I made 5 wishes. "Mind if I make a couple of wishes here, just after I say where I want to reincarnate?" The man nods. "Ok, I wish to reincarnate in Dragon Ball, five years before the destruction of Planet Vegeta. Now to kick off my wishes. 1.) I wish to be a Saiyan child, also already five, and already on Earth in the wastelands. 2.) I wish for a system that has a British butler's voice and personality, however, the shop is free, with no BS quests. 3.) I wish to be immortal, as in I cannot die of natural causes, such as old age, disease, etc. 4.) I wish for my potential to be greater than the entire dragon ball multiverse combined, though I have a base power level of 100, low enough that the people on planet Earth still have a chance if I go all out. 5.) I wish for a portable Hyperbolic time chamber, that is contained within a ∞ symbol on my left bicep, in which I control both the time dilation and the gravity inside the room. And finally, 6.) I wish for all the knowledge of the Dragon Ball universe, Ki, Magic, Scientific, etc. to be uploaded to the AI of the system from wish 2." The god nodded and peered into the void again.
"Ok, so the alternate universe closest to the main timeline is full, however, I can put you in the second-best option, which I have two of. Either go to a universe where all the characters' genders are bent, but the power level stays the same, or go to a Universe in which all characters are around 300 times stronger than cannon. Your choice."
With my absolute despise for harem novels,I decided to go to the second option. Though it may be tougher, My potential is definitely enough to make up for my low birth power level. The god nods, and places a hand on my shoulder, imparting all my wishes unto me, and giving me one last word of encouragement. "Don't die." I gulped, and nodded, before slowly fading into bright white particles of light and zipping off.

The god stood in the background, watching me fade into the distance, before slowly setting himself down onto his chair, and picking up a teacup. His eyes opened for the first time, revealing what looked to be an oddly shaped galaxy, one that seemed to swirl in a circular motion, and the other shaped like a Mobius strip. He sighed and grabbed his cup. "That boy and the other ones will need to meet soon. Something is coming, and I don't think he can stop it alone." With that, he took one last sip of his tea and vanished.
