Ch. 93: Riley's Travels - Green and White

Riley's next world was the Green World, populated by the other end of the extreme: Docile Saibamen. The Green World wasn't named that because of its incredible greenery, no. While there was greenery on the planet, it was mostly desert and cacti, rather than forestry. Honestly, the docile Saibamen's green skin really stood out among all of the sand.

"Is that... a pyramid?" Riley wondered. While the barbaric Red Saibamen had lived on their own, in holes rather than homes, the docile Saibamen worked together rather well. As a result, the differences in their culture were immediately apparent.

While both lived in pretty extreme conditions, the docile, green Saibamen worked together to make it more livable, rather than just looking out for themselves. As a result, they'd apparently chosen to create a single, communal living space, rather than work for themselves. With the impressive strength that the Tree of Might above them gave the Saibamen, they'd already managed to finish building an impressively large pyramid completely out of sandstone.

Extending her senses inside of it, Riley realized that the pyramid was only the beginning of their incredible design. The pyramid itself was only an empty shell, covering a large hole that contained an entire city, built using the Tree's roots. The green Saibamen lived in large family units in caverns along the hole, traversing the terrain using the roots, and getting their drinking water from an underground river that went straight through the bottom of the hole.

"Incredible civilization. They've done so much by working together." Riley noted, surprised. "Now, let's turn my attention to the Saibamen themselves." She decided.

The Saibamen themselves were nowhere near as strong as their red counterparts, but that didn't exactly make them weak. The first generation's average power level was around 2,500, but their teamwork was a real force to be reckoned with. These green Saibamen were surprisingly in sync. 

Honestly, it was entirely possible that their race would eventually surpass the Reds in terms of usefulness. Since they worked together so well, they didn't face outside threats, and were able to procreate in earnest. The second generation's population had actually already grown to double the size of the first generation, though the greens' second generation grew slower than the reds'.

As for the second generation's physiology, it was yet another area where they differed from the reds. These Saibamen's evolutions had made them look similar to Namekians, tall, with deep green skin of a different shade than their predecessors, with the ability to survive with very little in the case of nutrients, but interestingly enough, their procreation ability had mutated to something similar to a humans'. They required two parents, rather than like the reds, who could still procreate by themselves via meiosis. They'd also gained the ability to 'resonate' their ki, in a sort of merge-y way. It was likely that they'd end up naturally evolving techniques similar to the Fusion technique that Goten and Trunks liked to use in the future. It'd be interesting to see. As for their average power levels, the second generation had broken 1,000, even though they looked like two-year-olds. 

All-in-all, these docile Saibamen were pretty strong, but they were likely too softhearted to actually be of use in any battle. If the Reds were to grow strong enough to leave their planet, while the Greens would be strong enough to protect themselves, they likely wouldn't actually try to fight back in any way, shape or form. They'd need to be protected, if that happened.

...

The next planet on Riley's list was the White Planet, which was home to White Saibamen, who'd been created with a focus on intelligence, rather than character or strength. 

The White Planet was right in the 'goldilocks' zone where life was easy to nurture. As a result, though it was notably hotter than Earth, the planet was covered in greenery. The White Saibamen had no problems creating wooden structures and getting their civilization off the ground. In fact, they'd already contrived both written and spoken languages. They'd even started to take on specialized jobs, they had dedicated carpenters, foragers, masons, even blacksmiths.

They seemed to learn something new about the materials around them, and how they could be used either way. They even worshipped the Core Girls as their gods, annoyingly.

They considered the World Tree and its fruits to be some sort of blessing or tool given to them by the girls, and had half-a-dozen Saibamen climbing all over it, researching it and the fruits that it created at any one time as they tried to figure out exactly how it worked and the effects that it had on their bodies.

These smart, white-colored Saibamen were even weaker than the docile, green Saibamen, with an average power level of 1,000. It seemed that all of their growth had gone straight to their brains, and that showed in their second generation. 

The second generation White-Saibamen were, physically, the closest to the first generation than either the Red or the Green Saibamen. They'd evolved to look kind-of like tailless monkeys, rather than growing in height or power. It seems that they'd evolved to be more versatile, rather than simply stronger. The second generation matured quickly, and could navigate in the dense forests of the White Planet with incredible ease, even though their power levels only topped out at 1,500, only five hundred more than their predecessors.

But the second generation's real charm was in its brain. Even though none of them were physically older than a year or so, but they were already smarter and stronger than their predecessors. In fact, their mental prowess likely even surpassed that of humans. With a few more generations of evolving with the Tree's fruit as a catalyst, they'd likely grow into an impressively technologically advanced society. As it stood, they were still just touching on the stone age, but with their mental prowess, as well as the strength that came from being Saibamen, they'd likely break into the bronze, then the industrial ages within a few generations. Riley was looking forward to it.
