Chapter 57

"Yes, I did. Your father is still as proud as before."

"Really? How strong is he?" Trunks asked curiously.

The father he had never met occupied a very important place in his heart.

Looking at Trunks, Gohan sighed and said, "Trunks, your father's strength has not improved over the years because he has no physical body. Now he is not as strong as you."

"Oh, that's how it is." After hearing what Gohan said, Trunks' mood became a little lower.

Gohan suddenly said, "Trunks, do you want to see your father? I can take you there."

"Ah." Trunks looked up in surprise, his eyes a little flustered.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to see him?" Gohan asked.

"No, no, I'm just a little nervous and not mentally prepared yet," Trunks said.

"Tsk, look at you. What are you afraid of? Show the same courage you use to defeat the enemy with one sword."

"Brother Gohan, I'll tell you when I want to see him."

"Well, that's fine."

During the conversation, the two of them descended from the sky and came to Trunks' home.

Today, Capsule Corp has resumed operations and is thriving, with a tendency to return to its peak period.

They were greeted along the way.

After walking for a while, the two finally found Bulma, who was busy in the laboratory.

"Mom, we are back," Trunks said.

"Aunt Bulma," Gohan also greeted.

But Bulma didn't even raise her head and waved.

"Sit over there first and don't bother me."

"..." The two brothers walked to the sofa and sat down silently, not daring to breathe.

It was not until half an hour later that Bulma stretched and stood up.

"I knew you two must be back. There were a lot of weird things reported on TV this morning, and then it was quiet again. I thought you must have dealt with it. Was that you?"

Bulma came over and sat on the sofa opposite them.

"Yeah, I guess so," Gohan nodded.

"I guess so? Is it different from what I guessed?" Bulma asked in surprise.

Trunks said, "Because Gohan went to the underworld to help, most of the strange events on Earth were handled by me."

"Gohan, you actually went to the underworld? How was it? Did you see them?" Bulma stood up excitedly.

The "them" she was talking about was easy to understand. Of course, she was referring to Goku and others.

"I saw them," Gohan slowly spoke and told Bulma everything that happened in the underworld.

After listening, Bulma was shocked: "So many things actually happened." After she regained her composure, she looked at Trunks and said, "Speaking of which, Trunks seems to have grown taller and become a big boy."

"Yes, Mom, I'm an adult now." Trunks patted his chest loudly.

Gohan asked curiously, "Aunt Bulma, what were you busy with just now?"

Bulma was obviously studying something, and it had reached a critical moment; otherwise, she wouldn't have made them wait so long.

Bulma said, "I was debugging the time machine just now. Now the time machine has entered the final debugging stage. Combined with the development of energy batteries, it is expected to be completed within half a year."

Gohan was surprised, "So fast?"

It's actually two or three years faster than the original timeline. The progress is gratifying.

Bulma put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "Don't you see who is studying this thing? It's a genius, Miss Bulma. Hehe, of course, the information you brought back from Dr. Gero is also very important."

But it makes sense if you think about it carefully.

This world is different from the original timeline.

Now that the androids have been eliminated, resources are abundant, and Bulma is no longer secretly researching alone. With the information brought back from Dr. Gero, it can actually be faster.

But now Bulma is researching many things besides the time machine.

The time machine, the new capsule, the Katchin steel, the blue wave launcher—these things together have filled her schedule.

"Aunt Bulma is awesome!" Gohan gave Bulma a thumbs up.

"Ahem." Bulma coughed dryly, then sat back on the sofa, squinting her eyes and looking at Gohan and Trunks.

Gohan and Trunks were frightened by her gaze.

"Mom, Mom, don't look at me like that. I'm a little scared. It's like you're going to eat me," Trunks shuddered and said.

"Brat," Bulma scolded him, then said, "You two will have great luck with women this year."

"Uh, what does that mean?" Gohan was confused.

Bulma continued, "In the year you were away, two girls kept coming to inquire about you. They came every few days. Wow, this is incredible."

"Videl?"

"Is it Lily?"

Gohan and Trunks asked almost at the same time.

Bulma smiled and said, "Who else could it be if not them? I say, Gohan, it's time for you to get married and have a few more big fat boys to expand the Saiyan race."

"Now that the androids have been destroyed, it's time to make plans in this regard. Besides, you are not young anymore."

"Aunt Bulma, I'm only 22 now," Gohan said helplessly.

"Is 22 still young? I remember you are almost 23, and you still wanted to lie about your age. You are already in your 30s, Gohan."

"No, Aunt Bulma, how can 22 years old be considered as approaching 30? There must be something wrong with your math, right?"

"You actually question a scientist's calculations? Don't be too outrageous."

"Hahahaha." Listening to the conversation between the two, Trunks on the side couldn't help but laugh.

"Um?"

"Trunks, and you, hurry up too. You are 14 years old, but including the two years in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, you are actually 16 years old. It's time to think about it."

"No..." Trunks quickly covered his mouth.

......

"Brother Gohan, what kind of gift do you think is good for a girl?" Trunks looked troubled.

"You might as well ask your mother about this. I don't understand it either. I can teach you how to practice, but I really can't teach you this," Gohan spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Brother Gohan, you know, I'm too embarrassed to ask my mother," Trunks said.

"Hahahaha." Gohan pointed at him and laughed.

Trunks ignored Gohan's laughter and asked again:

"Brother Gohan, you should also go see Sister Videl. She has come to see you so many times; you should also go to see her once. Have you thought about what gift to give her?"

"Uh, well, how about a sword as a gift?" Gohan took out the sword that King Kai had given him.

Trunks was silent for a few seconds.

Then he looked disappointed and said, "Brother Gohan, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can you give a girl a sword? I think it would be better to give her food."

"You sure?"
