An Unexpected Arrival

 Videl was in a state of disbelief.

"This... is impossible."

"How could my father be such a person??" she questioned, her voice barely above a whisper.

Even though she wanted to believe Goten's words, the reality was hard to accept. The belief she had held onto for over a decade was now crumbling, leaving her in a state of disbelief.

Goten, noticing her struggle, decided to demonstrate his power. "Look carefully..." he said calmly, and an energy ball instantly condensed in the palm of his hand.

With a swift motion, he blasted it towards a mountain opposite them.

Rumble!

Accompanied by a violent explosion, the mountain peak immediately turned into dust, leaving Videl in awe.

"Do you think your father has this kind of power?" Goten asked. Videl was taken aback. She hadn't seen clearly how the mountain exploded.

Goten hadn't even touched the mountain. According to her father's words, this was definitely some kind of hoax.

"Did you use a trick just now?" she asked innocently, echoing her father's belief that anything unexplainable by science must be a trick.

Goten shook his head helplessly. Then, his body leaped lightly, and he disappeared directly into a stream of light. It seemed like introducing this kind of thing to Videl was simply like playing the flute to the cow!

[T/N: In eastern culture, flutes are used by snake charmers to charm snakes, it doesn't have any effect on cow. So, he's saying that it is basically pointless.]

[P.S. A random thought: she doesn't even have those Moooos :3 how is she a cow?]

"Ah!!" Videl was left dumbfounded! 'That Goten, he can fly?'

He disappeared in front of her in an instant.

'Is this also a trick? No, absolutely impossible! This shouldn't be a trick.'

"Darn it... I must find you and see what mysteries you have!" Videl clenched her fists tightly and said though gritted teeth.

Goten had sparkled a curiosity in Videl that she couldn't ignore. She was determined to understand him better, but for now, he had disappeared from her sight.

With no other option, she left Mount Paozu in her helicopter, vowing to find Goten again one day and unravel the mystery surrounding him.

...

As days turned into weeks, Goten found himself in a rare state of tranquility. Videl didn't pursue him, and even Krillin did not visit.

During this time, Goten's strength stabilized, reaching the mid-term level of a Super Saiyan II.

He was confident that if he were to face full powered Cell now, he could easily defeat him without resorting to Ultra Instinct.

While engrossed in training, Goten suddenly sensed unfamiliar ki signatures approaching Earth. These ki signatures were stronger than those of ordinary earthlings and were closing in rapidly.

"Who could it be?" Goten wondered aloud. The ki signatures weren't particularly strong, but they felt oddly familiar. Sensing their approach, Goten halted his training.

He felt these ki signatures were approaching his location quickly. Was their target perhaps himself? Sensing their approach, Goten decided to stand still and wait, after few seconds, he confirmed that these people were obviously here for him.

Ten minutes later, a massive shadow appeared in the sky, accompanied by a deafening sound that was unlike anything Videl's helicopter could produce.

The shadow engulfed the sky and within seconds, landed in front on Goten. It was a galactic spaceship, strikingly similar to those spaceships of Frieza Legion.

"Could it be the Frieza Legion's spaceship?" Goten mused. But he quickly dismissed the idea. "The power of these guys is very weak." The power of these newcomers was too weak to be Frieza's, and besides, Frieza had been defeated by Future Trunks. Moreover, Frieza's fighting power was at least 100 million, a level these newcomers couldn't possibly reach.

Just when Goten was wondering, the hatch of the galactic spaceship opened, and a group of people emerged, lining up neatly in two rows. They fellows were clearly galactic soldiers. An elderly man with gray hair, and a single eye, wearing the old combat uniform of the Frieza Legion, slowly walked out of spaceship. Goten recognized him immediately.

"Paragus?" he muttered to himself in surprise. It was Broly's father, Paragus.

Paragus approached Goten and placed his right hand on his chest in a gesture of respect, a traditional Saiyan salute to the strong!

"Hello, Son Goten-san, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Paragus." he greeted politely. Yet his eyes held a ruthless and gloomy look. It was a stark reminder of the ferocity inherent in a pure Saiyan.

'This guy, how did he find me? Scratch that, how the hell does he know me?!' Goten thought, puzzled. He had been relatively unknown on Earth until his battle with Cell two month ago.

It was also because of that battle with Cell that he was known to all people on Earth. And as far as he knew, Paragus and Broly resided in the southern galaxy. The Northern and Southern Galaxy were at two extremes. It was surprising that Paragus had managed to locate him on Earth in the northern galaxy in such a short time. Furthermore, he didn't expect him to be quite well-informed, and find him in just two months after the battle with Cell.

Goten responded with a nonchalant air, "Your identity doesn't concern me. What I want to know is why you're here on Earth. What business do you have with me?" He paused for a moment before adding, "If your reasons aren't satisfactory, I won't hesitate to make you leave."

Goten's interest in Paragus was minimal. However, when it came to Paragus's son, Broly, Goten's curiosity was piqued. Broly was a pure Legendary Saiyan, and that fact alone was enough to intrigue Goten.
