Protagonist's Halo

"Given that, we'll just have to go ahead for now, and we can try to contact Tien and Yamcha after we meet with Kami," Goku said.

There was no way to gather the old comrades in a short time, so this was the only option now.

Once the next steps are determined, they will try to notify them.

In Goku's view, both Tien and Yamcha were still reliable people at this time.

Unlike after the great universal era, when the era of Earth's artificial humans arrived, and everyone besides the Saiyans, including Piccolo, was gradually phased out, even if Goku wanted to rely on them, he couldn't.

This was a true turning point, marking the dominance of the Saiyans from then on.

Is it really that Earthlings or other aliens are inferior to Saiyans?

Indeed, this is the case in terms of transformations.

But if they had the same opportunities and training methods, without the advantage of transformations, the other Z fighters wouldn't be so bad.

Just like the first time, Goku went to train with King Kai, the Earth's fighters just followed the training Goku had done, and all surpassed 1000 points in power, reaching nearly 2000 points! Piccolo even reached over 3000 points with his training.

Then there's Goku learning the Kaio-ken and the Spirit Bomb under King Kai's guidance and training under ten times gravity, boosting his power level to 8000 points.

Later, when Tien, Chiaotzu, Yamcha, and Piccolo went, whoever it was managed to break 10,000 in power in a very short time, even reaching several tens of thousands, and they even defeated members of the elite Ginyu Force who had died.

In the end, it wasn't about lack of qualifications but lack of opportunity; the protagonist's halo was just too bright.

Then, think about the later era when Saiyans became the main fighting force, and it was all about advancing in transformations...

Those who weren't Saiyans, without transformations or new developments, even Piccolo, who had merged with Kami, were completely phased out.

Thinking this, Lin Chuan, as a transmigrator, deeply understood all this but could only sigh.

After all, in this life, he is a Saiyan, and becoming a Super Saiyan is his primary goal.

"Cut it out, Kakarot. Aren't you going to ask for my opinion? Whether I want to go or not?" Raditz suddenly spoke up, interrupting Goku's train of thought and causing Goku a bit of embarrassment.

He indeed hadn't asked for anyone's opinion; he just assumed everyone would go together.

The others looked cautiously at Raditz, fearing he might stir up more trouble.

To Krillin, Master Roshi, and Bulma, Raditz was an invader.

Even though the situation had changed to allies now, they still instinctively resisted him.

Just like how they treated Piccolo.

Even though Piccolo had joined forces with Goku, the fear he had once brought was not easily forgotten.

The original story also took a year before this grudge was fully resolved.

So, in the end, it was about standing on the same front and cooperating, understanding each other, and resolving grievances.

"Big Brother, don't you also want to become stronger? If we go, you can get guidance from Kami... My strength today is all thanks to the training I've undergone, plus some guidance from Kami a few years ago." Goku indeed showed unexpected intellect at that moment.

He knew how to coax his newly recognized elder brother with the prospect of training.

"Hmph!! Do you mean to say that this so-called Namekian Kami can make me stronger? Stop joking! What's there to brag about with your power level under a thousand?" Raditz spoke harshly but had already accepted the idea internally.

Without giving Goku a chance to argue, he shifted his focus to Lin Chuan, asking, "Talos, what do you think?"

All eyes were once again on Lin Chuan.

"I don't mind, really. After hearing so much, I'm quite interested too. Why not go and see? There might indeed be some benefits." Lin Chuan maintained his smile as he spoke.

With his approval, Raditz hesitated no longer.

It was as if he had been given an out, and he declared, "Then let's go!"

Goku and the others nodded at each other.

With both Raditz and Lin Chuan agreeing, there was no need to worry about anything else.

"Bulma, take care of Gohan for me. Use your aircraft so he can rest well. The kid is tired," Goku said as he handed Gohan over to Bulma.

His words carried weight since he had the Flying Nimbus and could fly on his own.

Of course, he could have taken his son with him, but considering the injuries the boy had sustained during the fight and his young age, it was better to keep him stable.

This proved that Goku wasn't just looking out for himself; he was considering everything thoroughly.

"Leave it to me. Besides, if everyone is going, Krillin and Master Roshi need me to take them, too," Bulma responded.

"However, my aircraft might not be able to fly up to where Kami lives. At most, it can only go up to Korin Tower."

Bulma took Gohan's hand while saying so.

Gohan was not opposed to Bulma, so he didn't make a fuss.

Krillin and Master Roshi sheepishly chuckled.

One was a martial arts master who couldn't even fly, and the other knew the technique but was far from proficient, having not practiced much over the years.

"Once we reach Korin Tower, Kami will arrange for Mr. Popo to come down and fetch us," Goku said as he called his Flying Nimbus.

At this time, the strength of the Z fighters was just beginning. Even Goku hadn't realized the importance of the flying technique.

It wasn't until the Saiyan invasion that everyone started to practice this skill seriously.

...

Thus, under Goku and Bulma's lead in her aircraft, Lin Chuan and Raditz followed closely behind, heading towards the location of Kami's temple.

Along the way, Raditz constantly complained about the slow speed.

There was nothing that could be done; it wasn't that Goku couldn't go faster, but Bulma's Earth aircraft was not advanced enough, so its speed was average.

For Earthlings, it was already impressive for a civilian aircraft to break the sound barrier.

But compared to beings who could move thousands or tens of thousands of meters per second, naturally, it was slow.

"Speaking of which, how high is your power level, anyway? You talk a good game and have so much information, but you haven't shown your real strength," Raditz asked, not mincing words.

Flying close together, Lin Chuan could hear him clearly.

Curious about his power level?

Lin Chuan smiled, "You'll find out later! At least, much stronger than that guy Vegeta…"

Lin Chuan didn't elaborate.

At that moment, he also realized what stage his power level had reached and thus opened the system overlay panel.

[Host: Lin Chuan]

[Age: 25]

[Height: 185CM / Weight: 75KG]

[Power Level: 19,450.]

[System Current Level: 1.]

[Auto: Power +1/sec…]

...

He remembered that he had only just broken 18,000 points previously, but with time passing, he was now only 550 points away from breaking 20,000!

550 points, meaning in just 9 more minutes, he would be stepping up a level!
