The ability to buy the Saiyan Pod Seeds dates back to a few days ago.
Bardock took him to the Royal City to purchase a Spaceship and register for mission assignments. During this time, they coincidentally ran into Bardock's team members.
Under their encouragement, Bardock took Talot to a Tavern for some entertainment.
It was in this Tavern that Talot accidentally saw an Elite Upper-Class Warrior secretly exchanging Saiyan Pod Seeds for Merit Points. Seizing the opportunity, Talot acquired five Saiyan Pod Seeds at the same price.
From then on, Talot realized that the Saiyans were also engaging in these covert transactions.
And this Tavern seemed to be a place for such dealings.
This incident taught Talot a valuable lesson.
Afterward, Talot was scolded by Bardock.
The lesson was about not flaunting one's wealth.
Talot understood all of this, but when he saw what he wanted, and knowing he had the means to get it, he didn't think much about it.
Ultimately, it was because he was too young and too weak.
At his age, spending thousands of Merit Points so openly and without concealing his identity, as Bardock put it, could put his life at risk if he caught the attention of the wrong people.
Fortunately, Bardock was there, which made the transaction go smoothly for Talot.
As for Talot's purchase of the Saiyan Pod Seeds, Bardock didn't delve into it too deeply.
Perhaps to him, it wasn't a big deal.
Talot even thought at the time that he didn't need to spend those Merit Points in secret; he could have just asked Bardock and gotten some.
Reflecting on his rash actions, Talot could only admit that he had been blinded by the moment and almost made a serious mistake.
Besides the Saiyan Pod Seeds, there were also special medicines and healing fluids.
These were easy to obtain, requiring only the expenditure of Merit Points.
Under Bardock's guidance, Talot traded for a good amount from legitimate shops.
Of course, he paid with his own Merit Points; Bardock didn't cover any of the costs for him.
It seemed Bardock was using his actions to tell Talot that he had done all he could to help, and from now on, it was up to Talot himself.
...
After wandering around the Market with Selari for a long time, Talot temporarily parted ways with her.
The little girl was too clingy for Talot, and with her around, he couldn't do many things.
Without her distraction, Talot quickly returned home to calculate the time.
His original plan was to take advantage of Bardock's absence in the afternoon to visit Aunt Gine, to see if she would be willing to accompany him on a mission, thereby tricking her off Planet Vegeta.
However, upon entering the house and seeing Kakarot emerge from the Incubation Pod, Talot had to temporarily set aside this idea.
The timing was indeed inappropriate; with Kakarot around, he couldn't take Kakarot with him on a mission, could he?
Even if Talot agreed, it probably wouldn't be allowed during the registration process.
Sneaking the mother and son onto the Spaceship?
That could work.
But if discovered, it would be a serious matter.
For almost the entire afternoon, Talot stayed by Gine's side and Kakarot's side.
Perhaps because he knew Kakarot was the main character, Talot felt a strange sense of connection while being around him.
This even led to a rather peculiar thought.
When he meets Kakarot again in the future, he could boast a bit.
For example, when he meets Kakarot again, he could naturally say: 'Kakarot, I held you when you were a child. Back then, you were so weak and could only cry.'
...
Nightfall.
Bardock returned from Royal City very late.
He should have returned after bidding farewell to Raditz in the evening.
It wasn't until Bardock brought back a small single-person Spaceship that Talot realized the plot had officially been set in motion.
The scene from Dragon Ball Minus played out right before his eyes.
And as a bystander, he was allowed by Bardock to watch and eventually see Kakarot off.
Gine was heartbroken, but she was truly helpless, as this was Bardock's arrangement. Bardock wouldn't lie to her or make things up.
After the three of them saw Kakarot off, they didn't go home directly but stared at the starry sky in a daze.
After a long while, Bardock finally spoke, breaking the silence.
"Little Talot, there were many things I couldn't tell you before. Now the time has come, and you should know."
Talot's expression turned serious, and this time he didn't pretend to know nothing.
"Uncle Bardock, from the conversation you had with Aunt Gine just now, I've already guessed. It must be that Frieza is planning to move against us Saiyans, right?
"Because of this, you returned so decisively, not only to send Raditz and Kakarot away but also to send me away."
As he finished speaking, Talot and Bardock locked eyes.
Bardock was even more amazed by the wise look in Talot's eyes: "You're a smart kid. Now it's just you left. You should have no problem completing all your preparations in two days. Before I set off, take Selari and leave Planet Vegeta."
Bardock's tone was extremely serious, leaving no room for Talot to argue.
Gine, standing nearby, felt that Bardock was being overly cautious and said, "Is it really necessary to be so cautious, Bardock? Even if what you say is true, it still..."
Before she could finish, Bardock interrupted her.
"Trust me, Gine! And I've already made up my mind. You can leave Planet Vegeta with Talot this time, to avoid the storm...
"If nothing happens, that's best, but if something unimaginable does happen, we'll be glad we prepared in advance."
Bardock spoke a lot in one breath, which left both Gine and Talot stunned.
Gine was shocked because Bardock actually wanted her to leave with Talot.
A sense of inexplicable panic swept over her, making her breathing rapid and even difficult.
Talot was also shocked, not expecting Bardock to make such a decision before he could even speak.
"Aunt Gine and I will leave, but what about you, Uncle Bardock?" Talot took a deep breath, thinking that if he could change things, he might convince Bardock not to return to Planet Vegeta after completing the mission on Canasa Planet.
However, Talot knew it was impossible.
Otherwise, the legend of standing alone against all odds wouldn't exist!
Bardock's sense of responsibility was too strong. At such a critical moment of the survival of his race, how could he be afraid of death?
"Don't worry about me! Don't forget, my combat power exceeds ten thousand! Even King Vegeta would find it hard to beat me!" Bardock smiled.
