Life calmed down a bit once Miguel was healed, I kept on training with Krillin and Roshi, and even Goku would come by to Kame house sometimes with Gohan and Chi Chi to train as well. Videl seemed to get along fine with Gohan and Chi Chi doted on her as well, calling Videl her future daughter in law. Me and Miguel would brush it off and laugh, but in my head I knew she wasn't wrong. During this time, I started to get Videl into training as well, Miguel didn't seem to mind, and if anything this had the effect of having Chi Chi allow for Gohan to train as well and even Chi Chi got back into training. Miguel tried as well, but after a day of delivering milk and manual labor she decided it wasn't for her and she stopped, but she supported me training up Videl
During the next few years, I met the rest of the gang, Tien, Yajirobe, Yamcha, and even Chaotzu. I had Tien teach me the flying technique in order to not rely on motor transportation and cause I thought it was cool. And I even joined a professional soccer team, I needed to make some money and I didn't wanna steal Yamcha's thunder in baseball. I had Yamcha use his influence to put in good word for me with a local professional team. I breezed through their tryout and within a few months my team became world champs and I was on the cover of every soccer mag. I didn't have to bother worrying about money anymore and could throw all my effort into training. I even sent some money along to Miguel's family so they could calm down about their precious baby running off with some martial artist.
Once I did that, I went over to Korin's tower, I thought about flying up but figured I might as well get some training in and climb up. After about 6 hours I got to the top and met Korin, I trained with him for about 1 month until I finally got the water for him. Finally, I asked for permission to meet Kami, I had Goku put in good word for me in advance so I was let up to the lookout.
Kami looked much more disturbing in Person, I walked up to him and spoke, "I don't wanna explain for too long, I know you have some sort of mind read technique so feel free to read my mind. And don't worry I know piccolo will find out about what I have to say, but he'll play a crucial part in the battles to come." Kami walked up to me and read my mind, he opened his eyes and spoke, "I see, so you were transported to our reality in the body of this mortal and as such have the knowledge of upcoming threats for the next few decades. And you wish to prepare not only yourself, but earth as well for this. Very well, I'll gather everyone up and explain, and don't worry I won't tell them you're from another world." Before he left I spoke up, "Bring piccolo along too, we're going to need him." Kami spoke up, "Don't worry, I'm sure he's on his way right now. In the meantime wait here, once we gather everyone up we'll start training."
An hour later everyone was gathered, even Piccolo was here as well. Kami then explained as best he could, he gave the excuse that he had gained an ability to see into the future much more accurately than Baba and told us about the upcoming threats. By this point, we had about a year left until Raditz got here, as such We started training in earnest. Finally 6 months passed, we had gotten pretty strong, around the level of Raditz, Gohan and Videl were at about where Goku was at the begging of the actual Dragon Ball Z. Kami then gathered us and dismissed us and we left the tower. I then spent a few days at Kame House doing light training with Videl and hanging out with Miguel, then went to west city and entered Bulma's lab, "Hey Bulma, I got a big favor to ask you." She looked over at me, "What do you need Hercule?" I spoke up, "I know by now Yamcha probably told you about those aliens coming to earth. I need you to do me a favor, can you make a gravity Chamber with the ability to go up to 1000 times earth's gravity and to fit more than 10 people. We're going to need all the training we can get." Bulma looked at me like I was out of my mind, "I mean, I can do it but it would take me about a month. And even then 1000 times gravity, you'd be crapping your spine out." I gave her a serious look, "I'll take that risk before letting some aliens kill my family. I just need you to do that for me please." Bulma looked at me, "Fine Hercule, I'll build your chamber, come back in about a month and it'll be ready." I bowed, "thank you so much Bulma, I owe you 1." I left her lab and flew off to Kame house.
A month passed and I got back to Bulma's lab, she delivered the gravity chamber in a pod and taught me how to use it properly. I thanked her again, I had to pay her back and then I realized. Kami's old ship was in Yunzabit height's, I figure I could ask for Kami's permission and she could reverse engineer that ship. I told her about the ship and had her get into one of capsule's ships and headed to the lookout. We arrived there and told Kami about the gravity chamber and asked about the ship over at Yunzabit. He led us over there and Bulma started at it in awe. She called a capsule corp team and within 30 minutes they got to the ship and took it away to study. Bulma thanked me and Kami and she headed back to capsule corp. Before I left I asked Bulma another favor, "Do you think you can reverse engineer the ship and include a gravity chamber in it. Im going to need to go to Kami's homeplanet to warn then about their upcoming threats as well." Bulma nodded and told me it'll be done in no time Finally I flew back to Kami's lookout. I had Kami gather us again, and I told them about the gravity chamber and figured we could get extra training out of it. I popped the capsule open in the lookout and we got inside. Me, Goku, Yajirobe, Tien, Yamcha, Chi-Chi, Chaotzu, Piccolo, Roshi, Krillin, Gohan, and Videl got in and started training. We had about 5 months left so I figured we could take it slow. Finally 5 months passed, since we had kids with us we couldn't go balls to the walls and go all out with increasing gravity, but we managed to master 50 times Earth's gravity. It was pretty tense having Piccolo around, but eventually Piccolo calmed down and took a liking to both Gohan and Videl. Inside I thought, 'Good, he's redeeming himself much earlier than usual'.
Finally, it was less than a week before Raditz arrived, I went back to south city and wondered the bars in the area and asked where Tao was, insulting him and saying I had a score to settle. Eventually, after an hour of searching, I saw Tao, he glared at me angrily, "Soooo, you're back, and you say you have a score to settle. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, you must have a death wish. Prepare yourself." A blade came out from where his hand was and he charged me, I flicked the blade off with my finger and threw him to the floor with ease Tao looked surprised, "What, how did you get so strong?!" I spoke up, "I've spent the last few years training under Goku and Master Roshi." As soon as Tao heard those names he kneeled and bowed his head on the floor and apologized, "I'm so sorry for harming your master, please don't kill me." I looked at him and said, "Ok, just don't kill anymore people from now on. Do something honest like being a farmer." Tao got up bowed again and ran off. I'm sure Hercules' old master must be happy he's been avenged.
I spent the last few days relaxing with my family and master Roshi, finally I felt a power approach the planet. I told my wife and daughter I'd be right back and flew off to intercept that power.
