"Is there anything else you need, Videl-san?" Goten asked, looking at Videl who was visibly tense.
Looking at Videl who had clenched fists and puffed up, Goten asked again.
"Yes, there is!" Videl responded without hesitation. She felt Goten was being too direct. If she had told him she had nothing else to do, he would have dismissed her without a second thought.
"Besides apologizing to you, I also hope that you can guide me. I noticed that you were able to fly during your previous battles. Could you… teach me how to fly?" Videl asked, biting her lip and staring intently at Goten.
She knew her father was incapable of such a feat. She had a righteous personality, she also wished to grow stronger and learn to be able to perform such impressive feats when fighting crime in the future. At this point, she had no choice but to swallow her pride and ask Goten for guidance.
"Goten, this is a great opportunity!" Krillin interjected excitedly. "I think she's interested in you. Why don't you teach her the Flying Technique? You might even gain a wife in the process. It's a win-win situation."
The girl standing before them was adorable and cute. The girl was loaded, and although she seemed a few years older than Goten, there were definite advantages to that.
If it was him, he would definitely agree without hesitation.
"Why don't you teach her?" Goten retorted, glancing at Krillin.
"Forget it! She probably wouldn't be interested in me," Krillin quickly dismissed the idea, showing a rare moment of self-awareness.
"Goten, I'm a quick learner. You just need to explain the flying skills to me, and I can figure it out on my own," Videl interjected, looking at the two whispering men. Learning to fly would mean she wouldn't have to rely on a helicopter anymore. And when fighting crime in the future, she would be able to respond faster.
"Videl-san, it's not that I'm unwilling to teach you the Flying Technique. But as your strength increases, you'll encounter more and more powerful opponents, and your risk factor will also rise. Why put yourself in danger?" Goten responded seriously.
Everyone faced this reality. As one's strength increased, so did the number of powerful opponents they encounter. The current Videl, at least, had the ability to protect herself and wouldn't encounter overly powerful opponents. But if she got involved with him, her safety in the future wouldn't be guaranteed. After all, there were too many powerful individuals in this world, and his strength wasn't enough to deal with those truly formidable foes.
"I'm not afraid," Videl immediately retorted stubbornly.
Just as Goten was about to continue speaking, a familiar voice echoed in his mind.
'Goten… Goten! Can you hear me?' It was Goku's voice.
Krillin, too, was taken aback. Apparently, he had also heard Goku's voice.
"Goten, did you hear that? That was Goku's voice just now," Krillin said excitedly. Goku's voice had suddenly appeared in his head, a voice he would never forget. It was the first time Goku had contacted him in over eight years.
"Yes, I heard it," Goten confirmed.
'Goten, Krillin, listen to me. I'm really sorry, but an unprecedented disaster may befall Earth soon,' Goku's voice was heavy and sounded weak.
"What's going on, Goku? Are you talking about those resurrected guys? But Goten and I sent them back to hell!" Krillin asked, puzzled. If it was those guys, it wouldn't be a disaster at all. Not even close to a warm-up. It seemed Goku had been in the Otherworld for too long and didn't know about Goten and his current strength.
'No, it's someone far more terrifying than those guys. Goten, Janemba left the Otherworld after defeating us. Dai-Kaiō-sama said that its target seems to be Earth,' Goku denied Krillin's words and then spoke very seriously to Goten. Goten was aware of Janemba's existence and knew how powerful it was.
"Janemba?" Goten raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he wasn't afraid of Janemba and was fully confident that he could easily defeat it, if this guy arrived on Earth, the situation would be less than ideal. Once such a super battle broke out on Earth, innocent people would definitely get hurt.
"Janemba? Who's that?" Krillin was at a loss. This was the first time he had heard such a strange name.
'That guy's strength is incomparable to Cell's. Goten, I'm so sorry, but I can only rely on you and Krillin now,' Goku said in a guilty voice. If he had been strong enough, he could have dealt with Janemba directly in the Otherworld. But unfortunately, after he became Super Saiyan III, he was easily defeated by Janemba. He and Gohan's Fusion also failed due to a synchronization error. In the end, Janemba was not eliminated.
Perhaps Janemba felt their opponents were too boring, so it left the underworld directly. According to the judgment of Grand Kai and King Kai, Janemba's target was Earth. Maybe it sensed Goten, a powerful opponent.
"Is it that powerful?" Krillin frowned. Goku's tone already indicated how powerful Janemba was.
"Alright, I understand. The things in the Otherworld have nothing to do with me. But if Janemba wants to cause trouble on Earth, then I will definitely destroy him," Goten responded without blaming Goku and the others. He was very clear that Goku and the others had indeed tried their best. In the case of Fusion failure, they simply couldn't stop Janemba. And there was no use blaming or complaining now.
'Please, Goten.' Goku sighed guiltily. The Cell created from their cells eight years ago, and the Super Perfect Cell form that it achieved was due to their carelessness, it had been a big problem for Goten. Unexpectedly, now Janemba was also left to Goten. To be honest, he felt really incompetent as a father and was also very guilty.
So. Janemba coming to Earth, eh. Do you really thing that he's coming for Goten? Or is something calling out to him? An Evil to another Evil..... stay tuned.
Connect the dots, giuzz.
