Kame House

As Lin Chuan showcased his strength and tested the improvements made by Bulma, he also took this opportunity to gauge how strong he had become.

From the moment he arrived below the Korin Tower more than two hours ago, with a power level of 21,675, his power level had increased by one every second. Now, his power level had reached an impressive 30,375!

That's an increase of 8,700 power levels!

To put it in perspective, that was over 145 minutes.

Only when his power level broke through the 30,000 mark did Lin Chuan genuinely feel the improvements made by Bulma's modified detector?

Adding one every second, steadily and progressively, small increments might seem insignificant, but they become natural over time.

However, giant leaps are a completely different sensation.

"This is my current strength. Although it's not fully unleashed, I can now easily defeat ten of my former selves!"

Even without a full-on battle surge, Lin Chuan felt his current strength and was confident.

His strength was growing, and his body was transforming.

At that moment, he was overwhelmed with joy.

Passing each 10,000 power level milestone could make a massive difference in strength. It's unimaginable how strong one could be at 100,000 power levels, let alone how terrifying a million power levels would be!

Only when one's strength truly reaches that level can one fully understand.

"Your power level has already surpassed 30,000, and it's still rising... wait, why is it dropping???" Bulma's voice continued incessantly.

Until the detector's readings dropped again, she suddenly thought it was a problem with her modification.

It wasn't until Lin Chuan explained that she realised he had voluntarily retracted that planet-destroying power.

"It's hard to imagine how you cultivated such a formidable power. Goku has been training since he was young, but his power level seems only in the hundreds, and his older brother's is only around 1,500." Bulma's words were enough to convey her shock and disbelief.

Her ability to accept this was quite strong; anyone else might have been scared witless by now.

Of course, Bulma wasn't afraid because, in her eyes, Lin Chuan was a friend.

He was not an enemy and wouldn't do anything to Earth, so what was there for her to fear?

"It won't be long before their strength increases dramatically."

"Alright, now's not the time to think about these things. Shouldn't you get ready? Let's head to Kame House and give them the power level detector," Lin Chuan casually suggested.

Since the power level detector was finished, there was no need to waste more time here.

As for spaceships, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

"That's true." Hearing this, Bulma nodded.

She then began to pack up, putting the portable workbench back into the capsule, and then took out another capsule...

...

Time was swiftly passed by more than an hour.

At this moment, at Kame House.

Master Roshi and Krillin had already returned to Kame House under Popo's escort, and they were all waiting for Lin Chuan and Bulma to arrive.

The initially calm mood and unthinking mindset would occasionally be disrupted by unease, causing significant psychological stress.

This was especially evident for Krillin.

Prone to worry and overly sensitive, that's just Krillin's nature.

In contrast, Master Roshi remained highly relaxed.

After returning to Kame House, he lay on his sun lounger, enjoying the sea breeze and his endlessly entertaining beauty magazines.

And Popo?

His demeanour was similar to Master Roshi's, even more serene if possible. 

As a divine servant who has lived for over a thousand years, he is undoubtedly the real hidden boss on Earth.

"So long already, hasn't he arrived yet? Could something unexpected have happened?" Krillin stood gloomily by the sea, looking into the distance.

The situation was incredibly oppressive.

After all, he was the one who had to deal with all the aftermath.

"There's no need to be nervous or in a hurry. Krillin, you need to maintain a normal state of mind. Instead of worrying so much, you might as well think about how you will face the guidance of Kami in the future and how to become stronger." Master Roshi glanced at Krillin from the corner of his eye and said to him.

Hearing this, Krillin could only give a wry smile and immediately replied, "Yes, Master."

He agreed, but how could his heart quickly calm down?

Only in the future, in the ultra-era, after truly realising the state of selflessness, could he fully control his own heart.

[What exactly is that Saiyan named Lin Chuan planning?]

[After collecting the Dragon Balls, what wish will he make? If it's about ruling the entire Earth, he doesn't need the Dragon Balls, and he could do it alone.]

[Aside from immortal life, what else must he obtain?]

Krillin kept guessing what Lin Chuan's wish for using the Dragon Balls might be.

But he could never guess.

The guesses were all based on the assumption that Lin Chuan would harm them, possibly destroying the Earth.

It could only be said that, on the one hand, the gap in strength was too significant, and the other party was not something they could understand.

On the one hand, the arrival of Raditz had caused too great a deterrent, and it was also their first time encountering extraterrestrials.

Amid these thoughts, a black dot suddenly appeared in the sky Krillin was gazing at, making him jump.

"They're here! That's Bulma's jet," Krillin shouted.

Before long, a black dot on the distant sea surface was continuously magnified, eventually becoming a jet.

But it was not the original aircraft, but a large jet.

The main characters arrived. Master Roshi changed his previous demeanour, put down the magazine in his hand, and stood up, and Popo also leaned in.

There was also the sea turtle, who had always stayed home.

He was still terribly afraid, even knowing the cause and effect, facing another strange and mighty Saiyan.

...

Inside the jet, Lin Chuan was sitting in the co-pilot seat, arms crossed, looking straight ahead.

At this moment, his power level had risen from 30,375 points to 34,695 points.

If it weren't for his power level increasing every second, he wouldn't have the patience for this more than an hour's flight.

No way, the plan was originally to leave the spaceship alone.

But Bulma insisted on moving it, fearing that leaving it there would lead to damage.

This directly treated the spaceship as her possession, leaving Lin Chuan speechless.

Throughout the journey, Lin Chuan said a little, just listening to Bulma talking non-stop.

"We're here!"

At Bulma's reminder, Lin Chuan also saw the lonely island on the sea.

Even from a distance, Lin Chuan could see it clearly with his eyesight.

This is Kame House.
