Chapter 20: A Month of Training and Growth

A/N: Remember, in Dragon Ball Super, Goku got scratched by a bullet despite having high ki. This shows that high ki alone isn't enough—physical conditioning is equally crucial. Goku knows that relying solely on brute strength won't guarantee victory. By creating versatile techniques, he's preparing for any challenge, enhancing his training, and ensuring his abilities keep growing. In the long run, these techniques will make him a more powerful and well-rounded fighter.

This is a reply to one of the comments which I found weird but it's feel like I am talking to someone who do not know dragon Ball.

I will not reply to this type of comment in the future which is clearly explain in anime.

(Regarding ki and physical)

----------

A month had flown by since Goku settled into his rigorous training routine with Grandpa Gohan. Each day was filled with relentless practice, a testament to Goku's pushing his limits and improving his skills. During this period, Goku made remarkable progress, not only in his combat abilities but also in his overall approach to fighting and self-discipline.

Goku's training regimen was as intense as it was innovative. He employed the Self-Multiplication Shapeshifting technique to create multiple clones of himself. These clones engaged in fierce battles with the original Goku, allowing him to simulate real combat scenarios and refine his fighting instincts. By facing multiple opponents simultaneously, Goku enhanced his ki utilization and improved his ability to react and adapt in combat. His Saiyan heritage, known for its innate fighting prowess, enabled him to grow stronger with every session. The process was grueling, but Goku's commitment never wavered, and his skills sharpened significantly.

In addition to his training, Goku dedicated time to creating energy crystals. He harnessed his strength to produce these crystals, which he then used to advance his techniques. His progress was not limited to his own development; he also took the time to think about his friends and future wife. Goku crafted thoughtful gifts for them, including a protective charm for Chi-Chi and a special surprise for Bulma.

Goku had decided to give Bulma the spaceship he had arrived on when he first came to Earth. The ship, which had been a crucial part of his journey, held significant sentimental value. Goku knew that Bulma's interest in technology and her adventurous spirit would make the spaceship a cherished gift. When he presented the spaceship to Bulma, her reaction was one of sheer delight. Her eyes widened in amazement, and she could hardly contain her excitement. The ship, now a symbol of their connection and Goku's appreciation, would serve as a practical and memorable addition to her collection of technological marvels.

Understanding the importance of self-defense and personal growth, Goku also took the initiative to teach his friends the Breathing Technique. This technique provided them with a means to enhance their physical abilities and offered a way to protect themselves if ever needed. The training sessions were met with enthusiasm and gratitude, as Goku's friends recognized the value of the skills he was imparting. They quickly noticed improvements in their stamina and overall strength, making them feel more confident in their abilities.

Goku's use of his shapeshifting abilities was both strategic and creative. He transformed from having two arms to six, allowing him to fight more effectively and handle multiple opponents at once. This adaptability proved invaluable in his training, as he could experiment with various forms and techniques to maximize his efficiency in combat. When facing critical attacks, Goku would often shift into different forms, such as becoming rubber-like to evade hits. This level of versatility made him a formidable opponent and allowed him to tackle challenges with ease.

One of Goku's significant discoveries during this period was how to transform energy bombs into different forms. This innovation expanded his tactical options, giving him the ability to adapt his attacks based on the situation. His creativity in combat was complemented by his strategic thinking, making him an even more formidable fighter.

Goku's commitment to protecting Earth extended beyond his personal training. He sent some of his clones to various parts of the planet to address criminal activities and gang issues. His justice was evident in his approach, as he handled these tasks efficiently and with a sense of responsibility. The clones, each equipped with a modest amount of ki, managed to neutralize threats and restore order. Goku's efforts in safeguarding the planet demonstrated his willingness to take on a protective role, both internally and externally.

One day, as Goku was enjoying a meal with Grandpa Gohan, Gohan brought up the topic of Korin Tower. He spoke of the legendary Super Spirit Water, known for its ability to significantly enhance one's power. Goku listened intently but felt a pang of apprehension. The idea of risking his life for a potential power boost made him uneasy. Goku was uncertain whether the Super Spirit Water or the zenkai boost in the original timeline had contributed more to his increased power.

Gohan's stories about Korin Tower and the Super Spirit Water stirred a mix of curiosity and concern within Goku. The prospect of undergoing such a dangerous process weighed heavily on his mind. He was determined to continue his training and development through his current methods, confident in his ability to grow stronger without resorting to risky measures.

With his skills honed and his resolve strengthened, Goku looked forward to the upcoming 21st Martial Arts Tournament. The past month had been a period of intense growth and preparation, setting the stage for the challenges ahead. Goku's thoughtful gestures toward his friends and future wife, and his commitment to protecting Earth had all contributed to his development as a warrior and as a person.
