The process went very smoothly when making wishes for the second time,
First wish: Talot first helped Salari gain the ability to survive in space.
After all, Salari was one of his own. Talot had already decided to keep her by his side and never abandon her. Granting her the ability to survive in space will give her more means to protect herself.
Second Wish: To acquire Time-Skip or Time Freeze kind of ability.
This was an ability Talot had dreamed of having for a very long time.
In any world, mastering the power of time is the true mark of strength. Especially in the original work’s storyline, there were multiple examples of time-related powers.
First is Time Freeze, possessed by Guldo of the Ginyu Force. According to the original work’s setting, the duration of the freeze was determined by Guldo’s energy expenditure. In the anime, this evolved into holding his breath to pause time. Either way, it was an incredibly overpowered ability.
Second is Time-Skip from Universe 6; skipping time, crossing time, imprisoning others in time, and even hiding in time, it makes it impossible for others to touch oneself.
Though Hit wasn’t overwhelmingly strong, by relying on Time-Skip, he became one of the top-tier warriors.
The third is Temporal Do-Over that Angels know. While the original story only mentions rewinding time by three minutes, but how far the limit can reach, no one knows.
With Instant Transmission covering space, Talot was determined to not fall behind in terms of time too.
He succeeded in acquiring a Time Freeze ability.
Using his own energy, Talot could create a special aura field and can pause time within it. The stronger his strength, the larger the area he could affect.
Credit where it’s due—Porunga is really awesome.
Third Wish: Talot gained the ability to briefly foresee the future.
This ability was actually influenced by various aspects of the original work, especially the shock brought to him by the Grand Elder.
However, Talot’s request was more practical: to see what would happen in the near future rather than glimpsing a distant vision like the Grand Elder.
For instance, during battle, it can allow him to anticipate his opponent’s next moves and react accordingly. While it was somewhat related to time, it was distinct in that it only predicted events that were about to happen.
However, this foresight wasn’t infallible and had a margin of error.
Because various factors could interfere with it, causing everything in the future to also change rapidly.
This is the butterfly effect.
With the wishes granted, Talot and Salari didn’t leave Planet Namek immediately.
Two days later, after bidding farewell to their Namekian friends they had gotten acquainted with, they boarded the spaceship and embarked on the next stop of their journey.
In outer space, Talot and Salari looked back at Planet Namek in the distance.
No matter what, this was a place they had stayed for half a year. Life here has been incredibly comfortable, without backstabbing or deceit. In a sense, they had stayed here almost as long as they did on Earth.
Unknowingly, it had been one year and nine months since they left Planet Vegeta.
Looking back, there was no comparison between their past and their present strength.
If he had this kind of strength back then, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
However, things that have already happened cannot be changed! All Talot can do is try his best to face the future.
“Brother Talot, are we going back to Earth next?” Salari suddenly asked.
She hadn’t asked earlier because she thought it was a given.
But now, seeing that he had no indication of returning to Earth, she couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“No, we need to go through some training in the universe. I’ve already decided on our next destination.” Talot spoke while pulling up the star map on the spaceship’s system, pinpointing their destination—Planet Yardrat.
Salari was surprised for a moment and muttered to herself, “Planet Yardrat? I remember that’s the place you mentioned, when you wished for Instant Transmission. Are we heading there?”
“Exactly! Salari, your memory is impressive—you even remember that offhand comment from six months ago when I made the wish. As far as I know, the Yardratians don’t just possess Instant Transmission; they have plenty of other techniques! If we can learn some of them, it’ll greatly enhance our strength,” Talot explained, having already planned everything.
The goal was to take advantage of this opportunity and do everything in one go.
Planet Yardrat was a must-visit place, especially for mastering the Forced Spirit Fission technique!
This technique had shown its terrifying power during the Moro Saga after the Tournament of Power. Not only could it forcibly separate absorbed external energy from its target, but it could also undo fusion, absorption, and similar techniques.
Learning this technique was essential for preparing for future challenges, particularly during the Android Saga and Majin Buu Saga. After all, in the dragon ball world, there were too many enemies who relied on absorbing external energy to enhance their power.
Against Cell and Majin Buu, Talot believed this technique would be incredibly effective!
Even though their absorption techniques were forceful, Forced Spirit Fission might still work similarly to how it undo fusion and absorption and assimilation, making them release the people they absorbed.
However, Talot wasn’t sure if it would work against mechanical and absorbing-type Androids like Android 19 and 20. Is it possible to release that absorbed energy?
With their destination set, Talot, accompanied by Salari, spent ten days traveling before finally arriving at Planet Yardrat.
As expected, the Yardratians, like the Namekians, didn’t see outsiders as enemies.
In fact, because Planet Yardrat rarely had visitors, Talot and Salari were treated as honored guests. They were warmly welcomed by the elder Pybara.
In the original work, Pybara was the one who taught Goku Instant Transmission and later taught Vegeta both Forced Spirit Fission and Instant Transmission.
Talot made his intentions clear without hiding anything.
To his surprise, Pybara was not only happy to teach him their abilities but was also eager to transmit their techniques.
It seems that as long as outsiders can learn, they will continue to pass on their abilities.
This was called “passing on the torch.”
It didn’t matter which race learned it. If the Yardratians were to become extinct in the future, these abilities will serve as a trace of Yardratians’ existence.
It must be said that this was actually due to the Yardratians being overly timid, something that was clearly portrayed in the original work.
