Seven Days of Voyage! Arrival on Planet Namek

Leaving Earth.

As the spaceship finally entered a stable, high-speed cruising state, Talot and Salari both let out a sigh of relief, unfastening their seat belts.

The journey to Namek would take seven days—one day longer than the ship Goku used in the original work. Of course, the actual travel time would depend on the condition of the spaceship and any obstacles encountered in space.

For example, when they traveled from Planet Ouyun to Earth, they should have taken longer to arrive. However, thanks to a smooth route and the navigation system's auto-switching to the fastest path, their journey took less time.

"Brother Talot, you are starting training so soon?"

With the ship stabilized, Talot had already taken off his jacket and changed into comfortable clothes suitable for training.

"Getting stronger isn't something that happens overnight. The reason we're continuously improving is due to our persistent hard work in training.

"Besides, we stopped training for a while to test the spaceship. If we waste these seven days on rest, we might only be able to unleash 70-80% of our strength when we reach Planet Namek."

Talot spoke to Salari.

He wanted to set a good example; if he became lazy, not only would he fail to grow stronger, but his goals would blur, leading to a wasted life. 

Coming to this world and having lived for so many years, Talot had no intention of living an ordinary life again.

 

His path is destined to lead him towards greater strength.

"Alright, I'll go train too and try to perfectly adapt to 50 times gravity as quickly as possible." Salari nodded enthusiastically, motivated by Talot.

Seeing Salari's eager attitude, Talot suddenly found himself comparing her to the female Saiyan from Universe 6. In some ways, Salari's personality was quite similar to Caulifla.

"Even though we shouldn't spend all our time resting, training is about steady, gradual progress. If it's too difficult, then use time to build up slowly. In addition to physical training, Ki training also shouldn't be neglected," Talot thought for a bit and then reminded her.

To be honest, Salari was quite reckless. He was worried that she might impulsively subject herself to even greater gravity, putting her life at risk.

This kind of thing has happened before. That time, thankfully, he sensed Salari's aura suddenly plummet and rushed over to shut down the gravity device. Otherwise, Salari would have died.

A hundred times gravity was fatal for her. With a power level of only 3,000, how could she possibly withstand it?

Talot took nearly a month before he could raise the gravity level to 80 times, and that was only because his power level had surpassed 12,000.

The Gravity Device's maximum gravity level could now go up to 300 times! 

If Salari acted recklessly, Senzu Bean could still heal serious injuries, but if she died, even though Dragon Balls could revive her, death was no trivial matter.

"Got it, Brother Talot." Salari responded half-heartedly, but this was her personality.

Talot also trusted that she wouldn't act recklessly.

In any case, trust or not, he had to set some ground rules.

Thus, their journey from Earth to Namek officially began.

In fact, for Talot and Salari, it would primarily be spent training. They would take breaks, but they wouldn't indulge in Earth's entertainment luxuries.

Though they had Senzu Beans to help, human stamina had its limits. The mental exhaustion couldn't be restored by Senzu Beans; only sleep could restore the energy.

....

In the blink of an eye.

Nearly seven days passed.

Located in the 27th primary star system of the Vega constellation.

A spaceship trailed a long tail of light, moving swiftly through the cosmos.

As it entered its target star region, the ship's speed began to decrease, eventually coming to a stop in the orbit of the fourth-largest planet in the star system.

This was, undoubtedly, the spaceship carrying Talot and Salari.

Once the spaceship arrived, Talot and Salari, standing in the holographic projection area, gazed at the massive, emerald-green planet below.

Surrounding this planet were three enormous stars, radiating dazzling light.

Because of these three giant stars, this enormous jade-like planet experienced constant illumination; the entire planet knew only daytime, not night.

"So, this is Namek? It's several times larger than Earth," Salari exclaimed, her excitement clear as she eagerly looked forward to exploring the planet.

Even on a large spaceship like this, boredom was inevitable.

"According to the data, Planet Namek has no night due to its constant exposure to light from three glowing stars. Not only that, but it's unlike typical planets. From space, it appears this color, but the internal environment may look very different from what we see now," Talot explained.

This information came partly from star map data on Planet Namek and partly from Talot's memories from his previous life.

Actually, in a certain sense, it is precisely because of the exposure to three suns that the species on this planet were entirely different from life on other ordinary planets.

The Namekians' ability to survive on such a planet was entirely due to their unique biology.

According to the original work, Namekians could survive through a process similar to plant photosynthesis.

To put it in more detail, as long as they drink water, they can use photosynthesis to produce starch, sustaining their bodily functions.

Though they were plant-like in a sense, Namekians reproduce via eggs.

As he looked at Planet Namek, memories flooded Talot's mind.

Arriving here two decades before the events of the original work, he couldn't help but wonder what the Namekians of this era would be like.

He remembered that the Namekian civilization had gone through several cycles of prosperity and decline.

In ancient times, the Namekians possessed exceptionally advanced technology, which eventually led to severe pollution on Namek. When their CO₂-protective layer was damaged, the planet suffered from cosmic radiation, turning it into a dead star.

At that time, the Namekians were nearly wiped out.

Fortunately, their spacefaring technology was advanced enough that a small number of Namekians survived the harsh period on other planets. When the survivors eventually returned to Planet Namek, they abandoned technological progress, focusing instead on replanting green vegetation in large numbers to restore their CO₂ barrier.
