Earth.
Gravity Training Room.
"Starting at just ten times gravity?" Raditz and Goku were slightly incredulous after hearing this.
However, they would soon realize Lin Chuan wasn't underestimating them.
'Buzzzzz!!!!'
As the gravity training room activated, the surroundings were quickly filled with a layer of scarlet light.
The numbers on display changed from 0G to 10G.
Under the pressure of ten times Earth's gravity, Goku and Raditz suddenly felt their bodies become much heavier.
"It really is ten times gravity, just like at King Kai's place." Goku excitedly moved his body and spoke up.
"If it has this effect, then there's no need to go back to King Kai's for training."
"It's not enough! If it's just this, even if the gravity increases, it seems to be just so-so. The real importance lies in the potential development you experienced on Namek." Raditz, after gaining some understanding of gravity training, attributed Lin Chuan, Piccolo, and Gohan's strength to the Grand Elder's potential unlocking.
He even thought that Lin Chuan's breakthrough to become a Super Saiyan was also related to potential development.
If he also went, perhaps he could too.
Raditz was quite self-assured, not knowing the pressure they were about to face.
Lin Chuan's lips curved into a subtle smile while listening to their conversation.
"Don't rush, ten times gravity is naturally no problem for you. If you can't even handle this, your year of training would be in vain."
"Next up, twenty times gravity."
As he spoke, Lin Chuan adjusted the gravity environment from ten to twenty times.
'Buzzzzz!!!!!!!'
The scarlet light in the room grew more intense. Lin Chuan felt nothing, as he was strong enough to withstand it.
Goku and Raditz felt an invisible force pressing down on them, making them bend over involuntarily.
"This is twenty times gravity? My body feels so much heavier!!" Feeling the oppressive force, Goku's breathing became heavier.
It wasn't unbearable, but training in such an environment would definitely yield twice the results with half the effort.
"You seem to be handling it quite easily. How about increasing it by twenty more times?" Lin Chuan didn't hold back and decided to skip increasing by just ten times.
With a mischievous grin, he wanted to see the two struggle.
Under forty times gravity, Goku and Raditz's expressions immediately changed.
"Damn… just four times Planet Vegeta's gravity, and I'm already like this? Are you kidding me?!!!" Experiencing forty times gravity for the first time, Raditz began to push his power to the limit.
Not only did he manage to stand up straight, but he also tried to stabilize his energy.
With a power level over ten thousand, he could handle forty times gravity, otherwise, it would be too weak.
"If my big brother can endure it… so can I…!!" Initially struggling to maintain, Goku gritted his teeth and stood up straight under forty times gravity after seeing Raditz's determination.
Initially, they didn't expect the gravity increase to be so terrifying.
"You seem so motivated. How about increasing it by ten or twenty times more? Or should you train under this environment first?" Lin Chuan's words made Goku and Raditz's expressions change subtly.
Forty times gravity was already a high difficulty for them now.
What would it be like if it increased further?
Without giving them a chance to respond, Lin Chuan, to make them understand the horror of gravity training, directly increased the gravity to fifty times!
The sudden surge in gravity made Goku and Raditz's pupils constrict, and they leaned forward uncontrollably.
The gravity oppressed every cell in their bodies, even their bones creaked under the pressure.
At this moment, they finally understood that Piccolo and Gohan's strength wasn't just due to the Grand Elder's potential development on Namek.
Gravity training was also crucial.
In other words, it was practically a cheat for warriors.
If they had started gravity training earlier, their strength would have skyrocketed beyond their current limits.
Regarding potential, Goku and Raditz were confident they weren't inferior to others.
Especially Raditz, after being trained by King Kai, now considers himself a genius.
"Alright, first overcome fifty times gravity, then it's one hundred times! Just so you know, Gohan has been training here and can already withstand over one hundred times gravity. Because his body is still growing, Piccolo and I didn't increase the gravity further! As for Piccolo, he can already train under one hundred and fifty times gravity."
Upon hearing this, Goku and Raditz's pupils shrank.
This was incredible.
Goku thought simply, struggling to stand up: "If Gohan can do it… I, his father… can't fall behind…"
"So… if I can endure one hundred times gravity… I can have the power to defeat Great Ape Vegeta…" Raditz's thoughts were more direct.
Indeed, but there was still a difference.
Adapting to one hundred times gravity didn't necessarily mean becoming extremely powerful, it still depended on the individual.
Moreover, in the original story, Goku pushed his power to 90,000 in six days due to intense pressure forcing him to grow.
Also, Gohan's ability to defeat Great Ape Vegeta was related to the Grand Elder's potential development.
It was a breakthrough in one go!
"Train hard. I won't stay here with you. If it becomes unbearable, adjust the gravity yourself. If worst comes to worst, turn off the gravity equipment; you can control it with your voice too." Leaving these words, Lin Chuan left the gravity training room.
…
With Goku and Raditz's arrival, over the next two days, Lin Chuan awaited the rest of the Z Fighters.
Everyone in this era still wanted to become stronger, striving to improve and not wanting to fall behind.
Even Yamcha was among them.
However, their goals differed, and their motivations varied.
They had various reasons for coming.
One was hearing it from Gohan, another was a suggestion from Kami Piccolo to seek Lin Chuan's guidance, and also because Goku and Raditz had already started training.
For all of them, Lin Chuan didn't turn them away.
Even for Yamcha, they could coexist peacefully as long as he didn't cause trouble.
Of course, whether they could endure such training depended on them.
It's worth mentioning that in the past, to accommodate multiple people like Lin Chuan, Piccolo, and Gohan using the gravity training room, Bulma had already modified it, creating five gravity training rooms.
Thus, the Z Fighters had the opportunity to train individually.
Not burdening others and being able to explore becoming stronger on their own.
Otherwise, keeping up with Goku and Raditz would be a dream.
With a power level below four thousand, enduring twenty times gravity for harsh training was already enough.
Exceeding twenty or thirty times, even if they could train briefly, they couldn't sustain it for long, risking their lives.
After arranging them, Lin Chuan continued his own training undisturbed.
Over the past few days, Piccolo and Gohan also came by. After learning about the gravity training rooms, Piccolo meditated and trained like Lin Chuan.
Gohan, on the other hand, joined Goku and Raditz's gravity training room to train together.
…
Unknowingly, ten days passed.
During these ten days, Lin Chuan's relationship with Bulma grew closer.
They were no longer distant since breaking through that barrier, though not as clingy as lovers.
Having tasted the "forbidden fruit" for the first time, who could resist again?
Though Lin Chuan was a Saiyan, he was a transmigrator, retaining the thoughts and views of his past life.
Having done that, he would naturally take responsibility.
Except for training time, Lin Chuan accompanied Bulma almost constantly.
To Bulma's surprise, Lin Chuan wasn't a blockhead or unromantic, just previously misunderstood.
