Chereads / Dragon Ball One Power Level Per Second / Chapter 63 - A Month Later

Chapter 63 - A Month Later

Time flies swiftly.

A month quietly passed since acquiring the Senzu Beans from Korin and reaching an exchange agreement.

A month!

During this time, Lin Chuan mostly stayed inside the gravity training room, aside from the occasional outing. His daily routine remained unchanged until today when his power level had reached a staggering 5,056,640 points.

While the infinite power-boosting system contributed over two million to his power level, Lin Chuan also leveraged his training to add several hundred thousand points, surpassing the five million mark.

Five million power level! Lin Chuan could hardly believe it unless he had experienced it firsthand.

Frankly, a month ago, he had transformed into a Great Ape, experiencing the strength of a ten million power level.

But that was the power of the Great Ape transformation. Comparing it to his current strength, there was not much difference, though it was indeed less.

This realization solidified something for Lin Chuan.

A month ago, his combat ability was poor, which meant that even though the transformation could skyrocket his power to ten million, he could only utilize a few million.

Now, his human form alone had surpassed five million in power level. While numerically half of his ape form, his true combat capability could now reach levels where he could fight beyond his class.

...

Today, Lin Chuan did not continue with his gravity training.

He had stopped the intensive training yesterday because the spaceship, finally completed by Bulma and Dr. Brief, was ready for its new journey.

The ship had undergone its final short-range spaceflight tests in the last two days and was confirmed ready for stable cosmic travel.

Lin Chuan was elated about to embark on a new journey, so he stopped training to stabilize his power level through meditation.

Since his arrival on Earth, he hadn't rushed to care about the spaceship's construction or kickstart a new cosmic voyage.

However, as time passed, Lin Chuan began to form new plans, especially after sending Gohan away.

Getting to Planet Namek sooner rather than later could better his preparations.

Moreover, the Dragon Balls on Namek could be used every 130 days.

That meant he could use them more than once if he arrived earlier.

Three wishes each time—who would complain about having too many opportunities to realize their dreams?

Lin Chuan had many aspirations, especially acquiring Instant Transmission from King Kai, the methods to train divine power, and regenerative abilities, which Earth's Dragon couldn't grant.

At least not the current Shenron.

Thus, his hopes were pinned on Porunga from Namek.

If even Porunga couldn't fulfill these wishes, he must rely on the Super Dragon Balls.

But with his current abilities, gathering the Super Dragon Balls scattered across universes was impossible.

The sheer size of these orbs made them unmanageable; even if his power could quickly destroy a planet, he couldn't just roll a planet-sized Dragon Ball around.

Historically, the Super Dragon Balls were described as something beyond the reach of mortals, only usable by higher gods and angels.

...

Ending his meditation for the day, Lin Chuan planned his departure from West City, heading towards the Southern Continent.

A month had passed since he entrusted Gohan to Piccolo, and with the spaceship completed, it was time to bring him back.

Not only to completely reassure Chi-Chi but also to take Gohan and Piccolo to Namek.

From the start, Lin Chuan had planned this.

Follow the original story's path?

No! Changes were needed.

Now was the best opportunity.

Starting from inadvertently altering events by saving Raditz and allowing him and Goku to seek training from King Kai, Lin Chuan had already begun subtly making changes.

However, his actions hadn't been too overt since he was new to Earth.

Now, the time was right.

At the very least, he needed to start by strengthening some individuals, beginning with Gohan and Piccolo.

A month ago, Lin Chuan had arranged with Piccolo that he could accompany him to his homeland once the spaceship was ready.

He was confident Piccolo would accept, as seeing a broader world could help him break free from his constraints.

Of course, Lin Chuan had a personal stake in taking Piccolo to Namek. For the Namekians, Piccolo was the prodigal son returned.

With his assistance, the Grand Elder would likely warmly welcome them.

Otherwise, they'd merely be invaders.

There is no doubt about Piccolo's importance, as he was a future figure the Grand Elder would remember.

Strictly speaking, Piccolo was the most talented Namekian warrior of his era...

And then there was Nail, with a power level of 42,000.

Compared to him, Piccolo still had a long way to go.

But if the current Piccolo were to merge with Kami to become one being again, surpassing Nail wouldn't be a problem.

Whatever the case, the original Piccolo's time training on King Kai's planet boosted his strength by tens of thousands quickly.

At least he was much stronger than Nail.

Otherwise, Nail wouldn't have remarked on how impressively Piccolo had trained to become so powerful.

After a month apart, Lin Chuan was quite surprised.

Not only had their relationship grown solid, but Piccolo's power had risen to 2,900 and Gohan's from 1,395 to 2,000.

A month's training had brought them to this formidable level, highlighting their extraordinary potential.

Recall that in the original story, after nearly a year, Piccolo only reached 3,500, and Gohan was not even at a thousand.

Certainly, Gohan's progress was due to Lin Chuan's teachings, but Piccolo relied solely on himself, merely feeling the pressures of the training.

After explaining his intentions and inviting Piccolo, this opportunity, once merely a dream, was now a reality.

Hesitant at first, Piccolo was persuaded by Gohan, who had formed a close bond with him.

Thus, under Gohan's earnest appeals, Piccolo agreed.

With consensus reached, the three set off back to West City.

It must be said Piccolo's nature truly changed because of Gohan.

This must be the influence of fate, Lin Chuan thought. His guidance had subtly influenced Gohan, gradually changing him as well.
