Power Level 3500! Gravity Device Complete!

West City, Central Great Plains.

This was an endless wasteland, stretching for two hundred miles without a single blade of grass.

Except for a few special animals who have adapted to wasteland life, signs of humans are rare in this place.

Of course, normal people wouldn't live here, but outlaws, and even some bandits, would use this area to rob travelers, making a living off their crimes.

Two roads intersected, cutting across from east to west, north to south, disappearing into the horizon.

These two roads connected to other cities and towns hundreds of miles away.

…

Deep in the wasteland, sandstorms swept across the land.

A sudden shout echoed, accompanied by the ground trembling.

BOOM!!!!

A violent explosion resounded.

A hundred-meter-tall rocky mountain was shattered by an immense force. At the same time, a figure darted rapidly through the flying debris, training their reflexes and speed.

That figure was none other than Talot.

After arriving in West City, Talot and his group had settled long-term at Brief's house.

He now trained intensely every day, no longer needing to hide or restrain himself as he had in the past.

In the blink of an eye, almost half a month had passed.

Half a month—a period that was neither long nor short.

Calculating the time since arriving on Earth, it had been exactly a month.

It must be said that life has become much freer since coming to Earth.

Although there were many problems at first when they arrived, and while doing some things, he was even worried about what Gine and Salari might think, as time passed and their lives stabilized, everything started moving in a positive direction.

In short, both Talot and Gine, along with Salari, naturally adapted to the changes in their lives over time.

In fact, this change was largely because they now had a new goal.

When Gine and Salari first came to Earth with Talot, their primary objective was to find Kakarot, or at least hope that Bardock and Raditz would come to Earth looking for Kakarot so they could reunite.

However, after arriving on Earth and going through some experiences.

First, they couldn't find Kakarot, and second, there was still no news of Bardock or Raditz.

As a result, they pinned their hopes on the Dragon Balls, which could grant wishes.

Although they hadn't yet found the other six Dragon Balls, Bulma had already created a Dragon Radar capable of detecting within a 100-kilometer radius. With continuous improvements, the radar would eventually be able to scan the entire Earth, making it easy to locate the Dragon Balls.

Once they found the Dragon Balls and summoned Shenron, they could ask it to bring Bardock and Raditz to Earth.

…

As all the rock fragments finally fell to the ground, Talot's figure hovered steadily in mid-air.

Below him, sand and dust swirled, leaving the area in ruins, but Talot showed no particular emotion.

With his current power, achieving something like this was a piece of cake.

He pressed a button on his scouter, and after a series of beeps, a number appeared on the screen.

Power level: 3500!

Letting out a long breath, Talot retracted his aura.

In half a month, he had increased his power level by 700 points, averaging a 50-point increase per day!

This progress was largely thanks to Kami, the old man who had made him some weighted clothes.

With the help of this weight training, he could put more pressure on himself, stabilizing his foundation while gradually improving.

For a Saiyan, pressure is essential for faster growth!

Talot wasn't just improving his power level—his mastery of his power had also improved.

Half a month of continuous accumulation will allow him to become even stronger in the future.

[With my current strength, I should be catching up to Vegeta, right?]Talot thought to himself, comparing his current strength to Vegeta's.

He wasn't sure exactly what Vegeta's power level was at this point, but he was certain it had to be at least over 4000.

After all, it had been more than ten months since they left Planet Vegeta. Back then, Raditz had told him that Vegeta's power level was over 3000.

So, if Vegeta's power level was 3000 when they left Planet Vegeta, and considering the natural talent Vegeta displayed early on, he must have increased by at least 1000 to 2000 points by now.

[Even if I'm not quite on his level yet, I should easily surpass any of the other surviving Saiyans. Of course, that legendary freak is a different story.]Talot didn't dwell on it for too long, and as he relaxed, his scouter suddenly emitted a call ring.

The original communication function of the scouter had been damaged, but thanks to Brief's modifications, new modules had been added, allowing the scouter to communicate once again.

After answering, Talot heard Brief's voice through the scouter.

To aid in Brief's research, Talot had given him an extra scouter, hoping Brief could create an improved version.

"What? The Gravity Device is finished? I thought it would take much longer?" Talot said in surprise.

The next second, excitement surged through him.

He truly hadn't expected the Gravity Chamber to be completed so quickly.

"Scientific research can sometimes be like that—either you're stuck or you have a sudden breakthrough and succeed all at once. But overall, you should thank the gravity-adjusting equipment from your spaceship. Of course, don't get too excited just yet. We still need to test how many times Earth's gravity the first-generation Gravity Device can achieve, so hurry back," Brief said.

Upon hearing this, Talot could hardly contain his excitement.

He immediately told Brief he was on his way, and in the next second, burst out with Ki and dashed toward West City.

It wasn't far from his current location—at least, not for someone like Talot.

With his flying speed, he reached West City within minutes and quickly arrived at Brief's private lab.

Both Gine and Salari were there, likely having heard the news as well, waiting for him.

After a brief chat with them, the three of them joined Brief and entered the specially constructed large training room.

At Talot's request, the space inside was as large as four basketball courts.

Though Talot still found it small, making it this big was quite an achievement for this era.

"You better think this through—gravity testing isn't something to take lightly. Are you sure you want to do it yourself?" Brief asked, still somewhat concerned.

After all, even though Talot was powerful, once gravity reached a certain level, it could become unimaginably terrifying.

"No worries, I think I can handle it, as long as we don't jump straight to something like a hundred times gravity," Talot replied with a smile.

Gine and Salari were also a bit worried, but then they remembered that Planet Vegeta had ten times the gravity of Earth, so even several times Earth's gravity would only be equivalent to a few times the gravity of Planet Vegeta.

They knew that Talot's power level had surpassed 3000.

At that power level, even withstanding higher gravity all at once wouldn't pose any life-threatening danger.
