DBSKS CHAPTER 225 THE ARRANGEMENT WITH TRUNKS
This time, Lin Chen completely ignored choice three.
To kill Trunks for a mere 1 million Power Level, there was no need to consider it at all.
As for Choice one, the time machine, Lin Chen felt it was a bit dangerous.
After all, in the dragon ball world, something like a time machine that could disrupt the timeline was very susceptible. It could easily be destroyed by someone.
“System, what is the training robot with the power of time?”
“It can transform into a Super Saiyan, Frost Demon, Namekian, and train with the user in simulated combat. The transformed characters can also use the elementary power of time in the Gravity Chamber set at a 1000x normal gravity for battles.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen had no need to think further.
“System, I am choosing two!”
“Ding! The host has made the selection. Please complete the mission as soon as possible.”
Just as Lin Chen made the choice, Trunks grew anxious seeing that Lin Chen hadn’t spoken.
“Mr. Lin Chen, I know our worlds are different, and you have no obligation to help us, but please, as fellow Saiyans…”
“The situation in our world is terrible. Dr. Gero has used some technology to drastically increase the production speed of Androids. Over the years, besides me, there have been several individuals who have become Super Saiyans, such as Mr. Kakarot whom I just saw. In our world, he became a Super Saiyan after the death of Mr. Raditz. But the number of Androids is simply too great.”
“Other than Android 17 and 18, there is Android 19, which has likely exceeded tens of thousands in number. Besides 19, Dr. Gero is also producing a large number of artificial Saiyans, and their numbers are astonishing. Even…”
Trunks’ voice choked up suddenly, “Even my father Vegeta has been modified into an Android by Dr. Gero…”
“Dr. Gero has gone mad. It’s not just about power for him anymore. He wants to turn everyone into Androids, regardless of anything else! My world is already starting to collapse. Mom estimates that at the current rate of Android invasion, in the next ten years at the latest, the entire universe will fall into Dr. Gero’s hands.”
“So…”
“I refuse!”
Lin Chen’s icy voice made Trunks feel as if he had fallen into an icy abyss.
“Just as you said, that’s your world, it has nothing to do with me. Why should I risk my life to go to your world and eliminate the Androids for you?”
“I-I’m sorry,” Trunks clenched his fist tightly. The glimmer of hope that was born because of Lin Chen had turned into nothingness.
However, at that moment, Lin Chen spoke again, “Trunks, I’ve told you before that I’ve met another version of you in a different world. In that world, you also faced despair because of the Androids, and the world was on the verge of destruction. But that Trunks didn’t rely on me, instead he trained and defeated the Androids, restoring peace to the world.”
“Of course, I did give him some guidance.”
Trunks’ eyes brightened, “Mr. Lin Chen, are you saying…”
“The crisis in your world can only be solved by yourself, but I can guide your training. For example, teach you this…”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Chen instantly transformed into the Legendary Super Saiyan form.
The sudden surge of aura caused Goku and the others nearby to instinctively gather by the window.
“What’s going on between them? What is this form of Mr. Lin Chen?” Goku asked, puzzled.
Vegeta furrowed his brow, “This is Super Saiyan 2! It’s a level beyond Super Saiyan!”
“What? There’s a new level beyond Super Saiyan? Wow! Mr. Lin Chen is truly amazing. The disparity is too big.”
“Hmph! One day, I will surpass him!” Vegeta gritted his teeth.
“Hehe, me too!” Goku grinned.
“This is…”
Trunks stared in astonishment at Lin Chen as his muscles swelled and lightning twined around his body. The reading on his scouter had skyrocketed to a level that he couldn’t even count in a short amount of time.
“This is my Super Saiyan 2 form. Super Saiyan is not the pinnacle for Saiyans. There are even stronger and more profound levels beyond it!”
“So that’s how it is… Damn it, I didn’t realize Saiyans have such tremendous room for improvement! What have we been doing all these years?”
Trunks felt a wave of regret. After becoming a Super Saiyan, he had thought he had reached the pinnacle and gave up further training.
Rage began to rise within Trunks’ heart, an uncontrollable rage that caused him to transform into a Super Saiyan as well.
Trunks’ transformation startled the onlookers who were still unaware of what was going on.
“This kid can also transform into a Super Saiyan?”
“Wow! What’s going on? Why didn’t Mr. Lin Chen and the others just tell us directly?”
After feeling endless regret, Trunks didn’t immediately decide to start training with Lin Chen. Instead, upon learning that he would need to train with Lin Chen for at least a year, he expressed his hope for Lin Chen to wait for him a little longer.
According to Bulma’s calculations from that world, the flow of time in the two parallel worlds should be the same. That means, for however long Trunks spent in this world, the same amount of time would pass in his original world.
Trunks’ time travel this time was hasty, and there were still many unresolved matters in his world. Therefore, he couldn’t stay here for too long.
Initially, Lin Chen was worried that this might hinder the completion of the mission. However, after confirming with the system, he found that it was not a problem. This mission had no time limit.
“Alright then, take care of yourself. Be careful not to die over there. Once you’ve sorted things out, come for training as soon as possible.”
“Okay.” Trunks nodded and flew away immediately.
As Lin Chen watched Trunks depart, he couldn’t help but ponder.
If Trunks came here, does that mean the Android conflict will also occur in his world?
“Mr. Lin Chen!”
“Your Majesty!”
At this moment, seeing Trunks leave, Goku and the others couldn’t contain their curiosity and approached from inside the house.
“Big Brother Lin Chen, what exactly happened? Who was that young man?”
Seeing everyone’s puzzled expressions, Lin Chen glanced at Piccolo next to him.
“Piccolo, you must have heard our conversation. I need some time to think. Can you explain to everyone on my behalf?” Lin Chen said.
“Sure.” Piccolo nodded awkwardly and proceeded to explain Trunks’ situation.
Of course, with Piccolo’s wisdom, he knew not to reveal the young man’s name or whose child he was. He didn’t even mention who made the time machine to prevent the others from guessing it was Bulma.
