TEAM BARDOCK SHIP
RACIAL PERK ACTIVATED
HIGH-TIER ZENKAI BOOST 1.0 ADDED TO MULTIPLIER
I wake up groggily like I've been hit by a truck going at the speed of sound. 'Huh I wonder if that would even hurt me, I kinda can destroy planets now'
I jump out of the pod quickly to put on the remains of my tattered armor, I quickly look around trying to figure out why I was in the ship's healing pod and not the Konosis base.
I quickly turn to the other pod on the ship to if Bardocks in there and to my surprise it's completely empty.
'How the hell did he get out before me, he was literally a donut, I just had two broken arms and a leg.' I think before focusing my ki to see where everyone is, everyone's sitting in the cockpit?
'Why the hell are we in space, what happened to the war?' I quickly notice no other powers in the area running to the window. I see nothing but the blackness of space.
I run to the cockpit where everyone's sitting looking mildly pissed, nobody's saying anything as I walk in. I don't even think they noticed me.
"Yo guys? Why are we in space, weren't we fighting a war?" I ask in worry, more about the quest than caring about the war.
"Frieza got pissed off because it was taking so long and ordered Blize to rush the whole army himself, let's just say we were both knocked out and got sent back to Vegeta. Mission complete." Bardock rattled off with multiple bandages all over his body, I guess he had no choice but to get out of the pod early with everything going on.
"Well that's fucking sucks, no final battle, no glory, feels like a waste of goddamn time if they were just going to do that," I reply back mildly irritated, bastards fucked up my quest.

'Never mind, thank you Bliz, you're my new favorite Frost demon.' I gawk at hidden rewards and objectives I completed.
'Still, it seems anti-climatic for it to end this way, I guess it was just my first mission. Can't expect something awesome every time I guess.' I think letting out a sigh.
"Don't think too much about it kid, plans change like the wind, we're just soldiers, our job is easy" Borgos said walking behind me with a smile.
"Yeah, you have other things to worry about…." I hear a feminine voice whisper calmly as my tail jerks straight up sensing danger. I turn quickly realizing it's Fasha with an evil smirk on her face. 'I guess she's still mad I hung up on her'
"…ha.ha I'm going to go train, call me if you need me" I state to the room as I make a tactical retreat, full speed disappearing in an afterimage.
"GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!" She screams in fury chasing after me.
After making my daring escape(locking myself into the training room) I can finally sit down and go over everything that's happened in just the last few days. I'm way too curious about the turtle hermit scroll and the armor Gacha. Plus I haven't even checked my power level but that can all wait, I'm a sucker for Rng games.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO OPEN ARMOR GACHA?
Y/N….. CONFIRMED
'MYTHICAL RANKED'
BOOTS OF HERMES: BOOST DEXTERITY BY 250, MOVEMENT SPEED INCREASED BY 75%
'Well shit, my first piece of Mythical armor, the second highest rank. My luck is crazy today, just please don't have wings on the shoes' intone to myself as I pull out a set of golden armored boots, thankfully no wings were present. Without any hesitation I slip them on, I take a step and the world blurs for a moment before my body gets used to it. Not as big as a speed boost as Sage mode but this can be considered part of my base power, at least that's how I look at the armor I've acquired thus far.
I'm itching to check my power after the Zenkai and the new armor but I have to open the turtle scroll first. After all, it was the thing I was most excited for during this quest.
TURTLE STYLE-ULTRA FORM LVL 1/100: AT THE COST OF CONTINUOUS KI USAGE THE USER WILL GAIN A BOOST TO ALL ABILITIES.
Current mastery: 1.5X BOOST TO ALL STATS- KI COST:50/Second
'Huh, buff Roshi mode. Another buff at the cost of ki, honestly it's going to be very useful. At Least until I unlock Super Saiyan' satisfied with the results I begin to go over all my skills to figure out which to prioritize.
Obviously Armament Haki has proved its usefulness since I've acquired it, then there's the newly acquired Multi-form technique that will prove infinitely useful in training.
I've decided to curve Sage mode training for the time being, considering how long that takes and the fact it's impossible to train in the void of space.
The smartest route I can see would be to try to see how high I can get the Ultra form and make it battle ready. I usually barely use my ki in a real battle besides for crowd control, having a form that will draw on my barely used resource will be a must.
So my goal for the next month or so will be to try to get Armement to the next stage and make the Ultra form battle ready. Obviously using the multi-form to help me train them in live combat.
'Well let's see where I'm starting from, Status'

'Damn only a 7,500 jump, I'm starting to feel like my Zenkai is nerfed, though It is about a 20% jump with my new armor. I mean come on I had three broken limbs, I guess after watching Goku gain like a 10X boost to his power on Namek I have too high expectations.' I think to myself with a sigh, at least I caught up to Bardock which was my goal anyway.
Speaking of Bardock I'm pretty sure tomorrow the gravity room will be ready, I have no idea how high it will go knowing that Beats just started this project a few weeks ago. Hopefully, it will at least go past 50X Earth's gravity, if not I guess we can always find some insanely heavy training armor.
Back to the training I quickly focus my ki through my muscles, condensing the energy directly into it forcing them to expand. Surprisingly I grow a foot and my body expands to a wide degree. I wasn't overly buff even after all my training so honestly, I think this is a glimpse of what I'll look like as a man. Might try to master this form like Goku and Gotham did for Super Saiyan, I'm tired of looking like a kid honestly. This might be my new favorite thing, I'm not grossly over-buffed like Roshi when he uses it, if I had to compare my physique to someone it would be pretty close to Baki's. Compressed muscle and completely ripped.
I guess the plans to master this form over everything else, everyone's going to freak out though. Growing over a foot and gaining a hundred pounds of muscle overnight is not common.
I go over to the mirror to get a good look at what I look like with the new additions. I'm standing at around 5'10, jet black hair spiked everywhere with 8 bangs falling out of my red headband. Better than being four feet and having to fly to the top shelf.
I quickly go through a round of stretches and quick punches, with no loss in flexibility or speed surprisingly my speed increased with longer legs and stronger muscles. So it's nothing like super Saiyan grade 3, I'm guessing it's because of my child-like body working perfectly with the form.
The drain isn't much when I'm not actively fighting, I can keep this form running for about a minute before I run out of ki. I'm sure I can level it up until the cost is minuscule or I upgrade my Ki high enough the cost doesn't matter.
With those thoughts in mind, I quickly go through a quick workout trying to get used to the form before it runs out. It only takes me thirty minutes of meditation before my ki returns to full. I continue this process about 10 times before ending the session. Surprisingly the cost went down a lot but not enough, I'd probably need to get the level to the max before I could always have it on. Still, progress is progress.
TURTLE STYLE-ULTRA FORM LVL 15/100: AT THE COST OF CONTINUOUS KI USAGE THE USER WILL GAIN A BOOST TO ALL ABILITIES.
Current mastery: 2.0XBOOST TO ALL STATS- KI COST:35/Second
Fifteen levels in 5 hours isn't bad. I even gained stats to endurance,mind and wisdom after running my Ki dry so many times. In the end, I managed to triple the time I could be in the form, focusing solely on my body is starting to catch up to me now.
Knowing tomorrow the gravity room will be ready I can't help but get giddy in excitement. With everything done for today and my plan set for tomorrow, I lay down in my room with a content smile.
NEXT MORNING
'Ahhhh it's so nice not making up in a tub of fluids' I think to myself rolling over on my bed.
'Ahh, honestly living on this ship would be perfect, training chamber, food, water and transportation. Spaceship life is the best' i intone before I feel a loud bang on the side of my mattress.
"Wake the hell up, the machines finally finished. We've got to meet with Beats in the training room," Bardock says with excitement, pulling his leg from the bedpost.
"Really? This early, I can't wait!" I yell out in excitement quickly jumping out of bed and running to my armor.
"Just meet me in the training room," Bardock replied with a sigh heading out.
"Sure thing boss"
I get dressed at Mach speed, running out of the room straight towards the training room to see everyone gathered up. 'Is everybody joining the training? It's going to be pretty rough with their power levels, but I guess they're pretty close to Goku when he started. Minus Kiao-ken at least'.
"Hey guys, is everyone training together with the gravity machine?" I ask hopefully. 'The stronger they are the more chance they have to survive the kill squad Frieza will eventually send' I think to myself in hope.
"Hell NO, that's literally a torture machine kid. You and Bardock are the only bastards crazy enough to put yourself through that!" Shugesh replies in mild fear.
"Think about it like this kid, there are no known planets with life that exceed 5 times planet Vegeta's gravity. If that doesn't tell you this is a bad idea I don't know what will." Beats adds in tinkering with a console set in the middle of the room.
"No you all are just a bunch of pussies, how do you know it won't work without trying." Bardock snarked, off-put by how the idea was being shot down.
"Hey, we're just here to watch to make sure you idiots don't get turned to paste instantly," The only female member of the team placated.
"Come on Borgos I know you got it in you," I try to coerce the biggest guy on the squad. 'Honestly, Borgos may be getting up in years but besides me and Bardock he seemed the most dedicated to training. Especially after training with him, I know he's tough.'
"It's not for me kid, maybe after I see how you two handle it I might try a lower setting." He replied seriously.
"Speaking of settings, what's the specs on this thing Beats?" I ask in wonder hoping for anything higher than fifty times.
"As of right now? I'd say twenty times, it could maybe go 25 but that'd be pushing it," Beats replied putting the last aesthetic touches on the console.
"Damn, well I guess we can get some heavy training gear to make us get more gains," I say out loud in disappointment. 'Can't blame him though it took some of the smartest people in the universe to make the original gravity machine'. I finish my thought to realize everyone is looking at me in fear.
"Frieza's not behind me is he?" I ask in worry, turning my head to make sure.
"O-oh your dark kid, a pure masochist. You realize that's four times the recorded limit of life we just talked about-t" Shugesh replied looking at me in disgust.
"Yeah I'm actually curious to see if you could breathe past times ten, scientifically of course" Beats adds in looking miffed about me disrespecting his skills.
"Wait a second, do you mean twenty times Planet Vegeta's gravity!" I damn near scream in excitement.
"Obviously? We're Saiyans, we don't go by the galactic standard." Beats replied like he was reading out of a textbook, at least until I jumped and gave him a hug and a professional handshake.
"Thank you so much, if there was an award for the smartest Saiyan I'm sure you would win in a landslide sensei!" I say in reverence of his insane skill,' this bastard could probably give Bulma or at least Dr.Breifs a run for their money'
"No need to praise me. I can't fight so I'll do what I can." He replied back with a smile.
"Alright that's enough everyone out, we've got training to do!" Bardock yells, kicking everyone out.
I can't help but laugh comically at the scene, don't try to stop power-crazy Saiyans from training.
"Alright kid this was your idea, how do you recommend we start this crazy idea of yours?" Bardock asked
"Probably start at 20 times standard, beat the hell out of each other, then go up 5 every time it starts feeling normal to us?" I give my barebones training plan, well at least what I'd do if I didn't have a training partner.
"Not a bad plan, 2 times what we're used to shouldn't be too bad?" Bardock asked himself out loud before hitting the confirm button on the console.
I almost fall to my knees in surprise as soon as the gravity takes hold, damn this is hellish it even feels like the temperature went up ten degrees.
I go to take a few steps to try to get a new idea of how much this resistance will affect me, surprisingly it's not as bad as I first expected. Thinking about it I realized Goku was fine training at 20 times at a power level of around 10,000 after his fight with Vegeta. We won't gain much from this level of gravity. I looked over to Bardock to see he came to the same conclusion.
"Go to forty," I responded confidently. Bardock walks back over the chamber with barely any struggle to double what we're at now.
With a click of machinery the room changes again, gone was the light heat and the barely oppressive gravity.
We both fell to one knee unexpectedly, looking down at my leg willing it to rise, getting just the right amount of resistance to know this will work.

"Now that's what I'm talking about" the addicting System strikes again.
"Yeah you may have been on to something kid," Bardock adds getting into a fighting stance, a challenging look gleaming from his eye.
"Yeah, this is going to be fucking awesome," I reply back with a smirk of my own.
ONE WEEK LATER PLANET VEGETA
"9997…9998…9999…and ten thousand." I finish my last set of push-ups for the day, falling face-first in exhaustion. Looking over at the console I can see it reading at 90X regular gravity or 9X planet Vegetas, not bad if I say so myself. It wasn't too surprising that we were able to raise the gravity almost daily, what was surprising is how fast we grew. Bardock has already made the others swear to secrecy, if the entire Saiyan population got ahold of this there would be a revolt within the month.

LVL UP….. 100 Stat points added
The training is torture like Shugesh said it would be, I guess watching Goku do it through a screen and doing it yourself are two very different things. I've fractured or broken nearly every single bone in my body multiple times, muscled completely torn to ribbons, shit even some of my hair fell out from the stress. I gained 3.5 to my multiplier from Zenkais just from this week alone. After all the injuries that occurred, we've had to sleep in the recovery tanks every night.
Looking over to my teacher and friend I can't help but smirk at just how absurdly strong we've gotten from almost killing ourselves. He finally finished his set of push-ups and similarly, his body fails from exhaustion just like mine.
LOW-CLASS LEGEND BARDOCK
POWER LEVEL:125,687
'Yep, the bastard tripled his power. He could go toe to toe with Captain Ginyu now, well as long as his body doesn't get stolen.'
'I can't really talk though, I've gained just about 400 in every Physical stat and about half that gained to my mental stats from training the ultra form. I even gained perks for all the stats that passed 500 as i did with endurance, I was kind of mad that my armor boosts didn't count towards it. The most useful perks I gained were from Vigor and strength, vigor boosted my health multiplier by double while strength gave me an all-out attack

'Yeah in my 'base form' I may seem like I've been lazy this whole time compared to Bardock, good thing this child body is no longer my base form. Only reason I'm in it is to increase my training gains, for now and in the future this will be my 'Grind form' I announce to myself smirking as my muscles bulge and my height increases over a foot. Looking back over to my status I see my power doubled to over 190,000. I've already maxed the Ultra Form to the point where I don't even notice the Ki intake, not to mention that I doubled my previous amount.
"I don't think I'll ever get used to you instantly hitting puberty then reversing it to to train," Bardock stated with mild disgust over my transformation.
"You're just pisssed I'm finally taller than you," I reply back in a snarky voice.
"It's fine kid, you were so insecure about your height you created an entire technique to change it." The bastard said with a laugh. 'Did this fucker with the personality of a brick wall really just roast me'
"Fuck you boss, go see your wife an kid. You haven't even been out of this ship since we landed,"
"Why should I? I'm busy"
"fucking deadbeat…" I whisper under my breath.
"What did you just say squirt?" Bardock asked with mirth.
"N-nothing boss, haha." I replied back with a smirk.
"Hey kid, why do you put yourself through this, I'm a crazy bastard but this idea of yours is something else. No sane person would think this was a good idea." Bardock asked me oddly.
"It's kind of personal." I deflect not really wanting to open up to him. 'He may be one of my only friends in this life but I'm not a very trusting person.'
"Come off it with that shit, I've been in this hell with you. Blood, torn ligaments, busted bones I mean shit I had to carry your ass with one broken leg to the healing pod yesterday!" Bardock said mildly pissed. 'Huh, He's acting very odd for a Saiyan.'
"Look man, it's not that simple. You probably wouldn't even understand."
"Try me" he replied unconvinced.
"God dammit, fine but you have to tell me yours" I offered. He looked apprehensive before he steeled himself and replied with a nod.
"Let's say you lose everything you cared about, your family, your home, your planet and the only way to get everything back is to be the absolute strongest in this universe, what would you put yourself through? Because to me, this? Isn't shit, I'd crawl through hell on my hands and knees before I'd lose everything again!" I replied in anger asmy power overflowed as my eyes flicker to green for a millisecond. At Least until I calmed down and turned to Bardock with his eyes wide and a mild tinge of fear on his face.
"I thought you were different, an avenger huh? Not like I can talk, my idea is even crazier than yours." Bardock replied as he collected himself from my outburst.
"And what's that? To be the king?" I asked in curiosity.
"HA, nothing so small, I've been stronger than that fake king for years. Why would I want to fight for a position that is just Frieza's bitch?" He replied in between laughs. Reading between the lines I quickly realize where his real goal aligned.
"You want the Cold empire!" I asked in mild shock, he only smirked to confirm my theory. 'This crazy bastard, the low-class warrior takes control over the cold army. That sounds like a hit story in the making'
"With what you've shown me, in a few years and a lot more gravity? Who knows how strong I'll get." He replied confidently.
"No, even training at above 400x gravity I couldn't see your power level going past 100 million." I let him down simply as his shoulders tensed as his eyes downcast. 'God dammit you bastard, why'd I Have to get sent here and meet my favorite character'
"There is a way," I foolishly said.
"Tell me." He asked hopefully, nothing like the rogue warrior I know.
"The legend, it's real. The legendary super Saiyan, it can only be unlocked under certain circumstances." I answered dropping a bomb obliterating his world view.
"It's very ficale, for some it comes in a time of need, for others? an answer to their rage, but more often than not it comes at the expense of loss. It is very possible, it becomes easier to unlock once a Saiyan passes a certain threshold of power, 2 million if I had to guess."
"You can't be serious, how the hell would you know that?" Bardock asked in confusion.
"The information is valid, but I can't answer that. Call it a cost for the information." I replied back with a cocky smirk ending the tense atmosphere.
"Come on kid, that doesn…." Just as he was about to finish his statement the ship's training door opened and the gravity automatically resets to normal.
A beautiful Saiyan woman walks in, normal black eyes and hair just a tad bit longer than Fasha's and damn did she look cuter with the scowl.
"BARDOCK, WHY THE HELL DID I HAVE TO FIND OUT YOU WERE HOME FROM YOUR MEAT HEAD FRIENDS I MET IN THE MARKETPLACE!" The pretty woman explodes.
"S-sorry Gine, I've been training lost track of time." My eyes widen seeing the vicious bastard I've seen cut people in half with a smirk, cowering towards this obviously weak woman.
"You're coming home right now, I don't care if I have to drag you by your tail!" Gine puts her foot down causing the older Saiyan to sigh in defeat.
"Ok, I'll be home soon, let me wash up."
"Whipped" I whisper over to my boss/friend. He mechanically turns his head giving me a glare a lesser warrior would melt from.
"AND YOU, wait who are you?" The anger in her voice quickly changes to confusion.
"Oh I'm Scorz Miss Gine, it's nice to meet you" I answer with a smile towards Goku's mother. She seems taken aback by my greeting before turning to Bardock in question.
"He's the new kid, remember I told you about it before I left on the mission." Bardock informed his wife.
"Kid? He's at least 2 cycles." She replied giving me a once over not convinced.
"Oh, he has little man syndrome so he made a technique that would let him be an adult earlier." He told his wife with a smirk as I robotically turn my head promising death in my gaze. 'This motherfucker can't be serious'
"Bardock, that's not funny, look how mad you made him." She replied laughing.
"Ughh" I sighed before dropping out of my ultra form.
"Oh, so you weren't lying," she said, cutting off her laughter.
"Man get outta here, I'm trying to train!" I replied to both of them.
"Oh, no you're coming with us, dinner is on the stove. Plus you stink, have you been training with this idiot his whole time. Bardock, are you crazy, he's just a kid!" She flipped a 180 turning motherly before ripping into my boss.
"It was his Idea" he shifts the blame quickly before running off to the showers, I quickly follow to escape the mother hen. 'Man, women in this world are off the walls'
