Chapter 35: Shock!!!!

Kairos, Julia, Mia and Celeste walked through the West Capital city and couldn't believe their eyes.

"What in the world happened?" Julia asked.

"The city has changed," Celeste said. "Where are all the old buildings? The streets?"

"Everything is new," Mia said. "It's like they rebuilt the city."

They walked around a bit more and saw posters plastered on every wall, pole and street sign. 'Martial Arts Tournament!' 'Fighters from all over the world!' 'Compete in the greatest martial arts competition of all time!' and other messages like that.

"Tournament?" Kairos said.

He listened to other people walking around him and soon got the gist of what was going on.

The 20th World Martial Arts Tournament had taken place, and the final match had been exciting. The fight had gone viral because of all the media businesses in the martial arts field.

After that, the tournament had become a popular event. More and more people were flocking to the West Capital city to participate in it.

Kairos couldn't believe it. When he had been training with King Kai on his planet, he had been completely cut off from the world. He didn't know anything about the martial arts tournament, or about the world changing so much.

The group walked in silence for a few minutes, taking it all in.

"I think we should go home first," Kairos said. "We have a lot of catching up to do, and I want to take a look around."

Then they went to their house , soon Celeste, Julia and Mia got busy .

Kairos went to the Kame House. He used his floating technique, and was soon in front of Master Roshi's house.

Master Roshi felt Kairos' ki, and was overjoyed to see his disciple after 3 years. He quickly ran out of the house to greet him.

Goku and Krillin saw their master suddenly run out of the house and were confused. They followed behind him to see what was going on.

They saw Kairos floating in the air, and were shocked. "Who is that?" Krillin asked.

"Kairos, your senior brother ," Master Roshi said. "

Goku and Krillin looked at each other. They had heard of Kairos, but they had never seen him before. He had been training with King Kai for 3 years.

Master Roshi laughed as Kairos came down from the sky to greet him.

"It's been a while, Master," Kairos said. "I'm back from my training." He bowed to his master .

Seeing Goku and Krillin standing beside Master Roshi, Kairos used his divine ability to check their combat power. He was shocked to find that Goku's combat power was 402 and Krillin's was 232.

Kairos couldn't believe it. He had just returned from training with King Kai and had expected to be the strongest, but Goku was already almost as strong as when he faced Raditz and Krillin is also powerful.

Seeing Kairos looking at Goku and Krillin, Master Roshi decided to introduce them. "Kairos, they are your junior brother Goku and Krillin," he said. "Both of them have become powerful just like you after 3 years of practice. They are also very talented." He smiled at his 3 disciples. "I am very proud of all of you." He sighed happily. "I never thought that I would live to see the day when 3 of my disciples would become so powerful." He patted Kairos on the shoulder.

Goku looked excited to fight Kairos. "I can't wait," he said. "Please advice, senior brother."

Krillin jumped up in shock and denied Goku. "No way, you don't understand the difference in strength between the two of you. If you fight Kairos, you could hurt him."

Krillin thought although Senior brother can be Powerful he can't be more powerful than Goku.

He looked at Kairos. "I apologize, senior brother. Goku has just returned from training and is excited to fight you." He bowed to Kairos.

Kairos thought about it for a few seconds, then nodded. "Very well,"

Kairos and Goku stood opposite each other in the Kame House training ground. Master Roshi watched excitedly from the side.

Krillin was worried. He didn't think that Kairos could beat Goku. He had seen how strong Goku was

Goku rushed towards Kairos and attacked his body. Kairos stopped Goku's attack with one finger. Goku was stopped in his tracks.

Master Roshi, Goku and Krillin were all shocked. They couldn't see Kairos' movement at all

Goku got more excited. He started to attack crazily, but Kairos stopped all of them with one finger.

After a few seconds, Kairos said, "That's enough for today, Goku."

Goku was still in shock from not being able to touch Kairos.

"I can't believe it," Goku said. "I was sure that I could beat you, but I couldn't even touch you." He looked at Kairos with newfound respect.

Kairos nodded. "You are still not strong enough to compete with me," he said. "You should keep practicing." He smiled at Goku, then turned to leave with Master Roshi and Krillin watched this in shock ,still now he couldn't believe it. He knew that he had just witnessed something.

Then Kairos went inside the house with Master Roshi to talk. After 2 hours, both came outside. Kairos was about to leave when Krillin came to him and asked, "Senior, I want to become powerful like you. Can you give me some advice?"

Kairos thought a while, then told Krillin, "For now, I will give you this advice. Without training, there is no way to become powerful." He looked at Krillin. "You should practice more." Then he left.

Krillin felt a bit disappointed. He had expected Kairos to give him some sort of secret technique or training method, but all he had given him was the advice to practice. But still, he was determined to become strong like Kairos. He went back into the house and started to train, using every ounce of strength he had. He was determined not to waste the advice Kairos had given him. He trained for hours without stopping, until he finally collapsed from exhaustion.
