(Author: I just wanted to say how my writing will be from now on.
90% of the time, the Pov will be Omniscient unless I change it. The Mc will talk but I won't be typing 'Daiko said this/Daiko asked', he won't be accompanied by those things unless it is necessary for fluidity, instead, other characters will have this done to them by a decent amount. Next is the speech, these are used to indicate that someone is speaking aloud |" "|, these are used for thoughts |' '|, and finally, these are used for the system|[ ]|. Other than that, enjoy!)

'This sucks... I'm on Whis' radar. I bet he'll be watching me sharply, and that's a little annoying.' Daiko then flew towards planet Yardrat.
After re-entering the atmospheric barrier, he landed next to a small hill nearby...
'This sucks, I guess I'll have to continue my training either way, but I'll have to be extra cautious about it, whis is sharper than he lets on.' He thought, rubbing his nose ridge.
In his small lament, a familiar energy appeared behind him. He turned around, recognizing the person.
"Master?" However, as Daiko asked this, he saw his master's face, and he wasn't pretty...
"Daiko. Please be cautious of your release of energy!" Pybara said, wearing a look of disappointment, and with a tone of authority. "The entire planet was under a rather powerful 'earthquake'." The elder said sharply before continuing. "Luckily I and others recognized that it was you, so we quickly told the people to calm down, including my wife, but if this happens again, don't expect me to continue teaching you, understand?" Pybara finished, with a tone filled with rather eerily calm wrath...
"I-I'm sorry master... I had to test my power, and thankfully it worked like a charm!" He responded happily.
Pybara simply sighed, then smiled at his student's achievement...
'I'm amazed how he fully mastered spirit control in such a short amount of time... This saiyan is nothing short of a prodigy among prodigies...' Pybara thought, smiling.
"... I forgive you, now what next do you wish to learn?" He asked quickly.
Daiko thought for a moment, folding his arms.
"I have to ask a question first, is that fine with you?"
"Of course Daiko, if it is within my power to answer it that is," Pybara responded...
'Well, it's better to ask now before I get my hopes up...' He thought to himself. "Is it possible to lock away your ki?" Daiko asked.
Pybara looked visibly confused by the question and asked, "... What exactly do you mean?"
"What I'm asking, is if I can lock away my ki so that it won't grow as I train anymore..." He asked, being a little more specific.
Pybara then understood what Daiko was trying to say, a little...
"I see what you are trying to do young Daiko, and it is dangerous! Locking away your very life source... Your goal of getting stronger, wouldn't be feasible anymore..." Pybara added.
His student, however, simply folded his arms, then responded.
"Hmm? Why not?"
A simple question, but for Pybara, it was the first dumb thing his student had ever asked him, so he vowed to handle this with a bit of humility...
"Daiko, you are aware that every living thing has limitations, correct?" Pybara asked, double-checking.
"That depends master... What are the specifications of those limitations?" Daiko responded swiftly, easily seeing where his master was going with the conversation.
The elder simply shook his head and responded.
"... Our physical bodies have limitations, Daiko... It's why all races turned toward ki to alleviate said limits. All beings have physical limits" Pybara said, then turning around. "However some creatures have far higher limits than the norm" He finished.
"But what if there was one specie that didn't have that limit?"
Daiko chided in quickly. However, his master was taken aback by his student's quick and unusual response.
'That's, impossible... If there were such a race. Reality itself would find a way to exterminate them or keep them down... But there haven't been any reports in history, of any race having infinite potential..." Pybara thought. He then turned towards Daiko, his eyes widening.
"You can't be implying..."
"Oh yes, I am..." Daiko said, chuckling darkly. He then proceeded, "Us Saiyans aren't like most races... We all have infinite latent potential, both physically and spiritually" Daiko interrupted, smirking.
"I assume you know where I'm going with this?" He finished.
Pybara started sweating profusely...
"Even if you are right, we don't know what the effects could be in your body... simply locking away your very life source is... Mad!" Pybara said, trying to dissuade his student. He didn't want a prodigy to possibly potentially die due to his misguidance...
He wouldn't allow it.
"Daiko I won't help you pursue this... This 'dream', of yours... You don't know what it could do to your body." Pybara said with finality.
Daiko sighed heavily...
'I figured he would say that the old man is far more caring than he lets on... But for me to grow stronger it needs to be done...' Daiko thought.
"Well, at least I know it can be done. But don't you think it's strange that your race has such a method in the first place?" He said.
Pybara fidgeted for a split second.
No matter how much he went about it, the youngster was right. There was no reason for his race to have created the technique if they didn't use it at some point in time. Yardratians weren't people to do such things...
"You... Are right... But still, doing this is too risky... Are you sure?" Pybara said.
'Ha! I knew he would come around, it's hard to counter a point like that' Daiko thought smugly.
"Well, I plan on learning something else for the time being. Though, this was my main reason for coming here, to find a way to train physically, the techniques were just a bonus." He said shrugging.
"Then what do you wish to learn now?" Pybara asked.
"Let's just start with instant transmission"

'This is a little simpler than I expected, it won't take more than a week for me to get used to it.'
*DING!*
[Instant transmission has been learned]
.
.
.
'Hmm? Not bad at all.'
Pybara taught me the basics of instant transmission, all I had to do, was to focus on the person's energy and imagine myself next to them. Though, one needs a bit of a vivid imagination to wield it properly.
'I need to learn a bit more. I can't just stick to only one technique that I've already grasped'
I then left the home Pybara had given me for my stay here.
On my way to his palace, I realized that the people here have gotten a little used to me, sometimes they would occasionally wave toward me, but that was only a few, the rest though... They just blankly stare at me...
The next thing I realized about myself is that I'd severely underestimated my capacity to learn and comprehend things...
Sure I had a rather large level of intellect, but what people don't realize about intellect is that it's best described as a rubber band, it's best tested in situations where it can be stretched to adapt.
Now that I think about it... How do those authors make intellect so busted, not only do they overestimate it at certain levels they straight up grant their users additional info as they dumped them. I on the other hand won't feel an inkling of a difference, unless I already know of said thing, beforehand...
'Lucky fuckers...' I grumbled, a little annoyed at my situation.
'Still, if this continues my journey here will probably last only a year and a half instead at this pace...'
This wasn't necessarily a bad thing perse, on the contrary. It was fantastic news, not only would I master my new abilities sooner than I had expected, I could even begin my physical conditioning training earlier.
Looking up, I realized was already at the entrance of his palace...
I entered, making my presence known, as I made my way down the corridors. I saw the king with around a dozen other elders sitting at a large table.
Judging from their expressions, I could tell it wasn't something good...
Not long after, They all turned toward me, then simultaneously they all looked at the king.
'He looks like he's in a rather dire predicament...' I thought mindlessly.
"Daiko." He said in a heavy tone. "I need to speak to you privately..."
I nodded, the rest of the elders quickly leaving, to my understanding, understanding that we both needed time alone.
They all left, leaving me and Master to our own devices...
I saw him look toward me...
"Daiko... I'm afraid that if you came for lessons, it will have to wait..." He told me, looking away.
"May I know what it is? Maybe I can lend a hand and help?" I offered sincerely. It was the least I could do.
Instead, he shook his head.
"I cannot allow you to interfere in the planet's business, it is against our tradition as Yardratians," He responded.
I could tell he was extremely serious.
I decided to play a little reverse psychology...
"You look as if your planet is about to be taken?" I asked the question quickly, in a serious net sarcastic tone...
.
.
.
*Twitch...*
'Ahhh... I hit the nail right on its head.'
His eyes twitched in less than an inkling of a second. Giving him away.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"Daiko... This is NONE of your concern-"
"LIKE HELL IT IS!" I responded a bit agitated, my ki flaring unconsciously...
I saw Pybara step back, most likely blown away at my display of ki, and possibly out of fear.
.
.
.
Not like I can disagree with him... When I get angry, shit tends to start leaving the living realm and end up in the afterlife not long after.
"Let me help you... I can't let anything happen to this planet, especially not to these people..." I told him.
Even if they ignore me, the people here were pacifists to an extreme degree, even more so than the Namekians. They wouldn't harm a fly even if they could.
"... If you must know... Our planet... It has been threatened by the arcosians for quite some time... Rather, by king cold and his son frieza." Pybara said, his head down.
My eyes widened.
Seeing my proud teacher like this set off a different kind of tik in my mind...
"But why? Your people haven't done anything wrong?" I asked, wondering where this invasion even stemmed from.
"Nothing... We have done nothing, quite the opposite young Daiko. For our lively hood, we even shared our techniques with them, in exchange they let us go, But..."
"They decided to be little backstabbing blunders instead... It sounds like them alright." I said, interrupting him.
But, what caught me a little off guard was the name, frieza. I never heard it until now.
'It makes sense, this planet is part of their side of the quadrant.' I thought. Not like not mattered.
Still, they wouldn't get this planet. Not over my dead body...
"When are they coming?" I asked, quickly.
"They'll be arriving in exactly three Yardratian days." He answered.
Around 2 and a half weeks then. Though, I felt Pybara place his hands on my shoulder saying...
"Daiko... There is something you should know... The son, Frieza. He's a monster... I fear, his power. It might even be far beyond your own..."
