“Majin Buu, all you’ve left in this world is evil.”
“Although it’s pitiful, you should still forever reflect on your own sins within.”
Kamiccolo said quietly as he held the sealed bottle containing Buu.
With that, he swallowed the bottle whole. As long as nothing happened to him, Majin Buu wouldn’t have a chance to escape.
When all was said and done, and peace was restored, Kamiccolo donned his cloak again and returned to the Lookout.
Facing Lin Chen, Kamiccolo bowed deeply and said gratefully, “Mr. Lin Chen, thank you. I have sealed Majin Buu.”
Lin Chen hadn’t expected Kamiccolo to have this trick up his sleeve. He smiled and shook his head, “No need to thank me, Kamiccolo, this is all your doing.”
With Majin Buu sealed, peace once again returned to Earth. However, Lin Chen’s journey was far from over.
According to the mission given by the system, Lin Chen needed to find a way to eliminate the evil energy from the Dragon Balls here. While it wasn’t explicitly stated, the key to the problem likely lay with Kamiccolo.
So, Lin Chen took out the seven Dragon Balls he had stored in the system’s space, hoping to see if Kamiccolo knew something.
Although they are both Piccolo, Kamiccolo in this world has inherited more memories from the original Great Demon King Piccolo than Piccolo in Lin Chen’s world. Perhaps he will have some unexpected insights.
Sure enough, when Kamiccolo saw Lin Chen’s Dragon Balls, he exclaimed, “This evil energy! Mr. Lin Chen, your Dragon Balls have been contaminated with evil energy. If this continues, there might be an accident the next time you summon the divine dragon.”
Seeing that Kamiccolo had immediately identified the issue with the Dragon Balls, Lin Chen felt a glimmer of hope. “Kamiccolo, do you know how to resolve this situation?”
Kamiccolo looked solemn for a moment and then said, “Mr. Lin Chen, if you had asked me this before, I wouldn’t have known how to answer. But after assimilating with Great Demon King Piccolo, I gained many new memories.”
“These memories were taken away by Great Demon King Piccolo when he split with Kami, which is why I didn’t know before. But now, it’s different.”
Pausing for a moment, Kamiccolo began to explain the method he knew to eliminate the evil energy.
“Mr. Lin Chen, before I start explaining, may I ask if you, as someone with the ability to create Dragon Balls, is aware of the Dragon Realm?”
“Dragon Realm?” Lin Chen pondered for a moment and then shook his head. He had never heard of such a place.
“Dragon Realm is where the divine dragons reside. The divine dragons we summon are actually from the Dragon Realm! These divine dragons were originally shapeless spirits, but we gave them physical forms in the mortal world when we created the Dragon Balls. After they grant wishes and disappear, their true forms return to the Dragon Realm.”
“There’s a place like that?” Lin Chen was shocked.
“I’ve never heard of it either,” Dende was also surprised.
“This is an ancient secret passed down among the ancient Namekians. It’s normal for you not to know.”
Kamiccolo explained before returning to the main point. “In any case, the Dragon Realm is the residence of all divine dragons. When Dragon Balls become tainted with evil energy, it means that the divine dragons in the Dragon Realm have absorbed the negative emotions from the wishes granted in the mortal world. If these negative emotions are not too strong, the divine dragons usually dissipate them over time.”
“But if the power of the Dragon Balls is abused excessively or for some reason, the negative emotions cannot be dissipated, then the divine dragon will become tainted by it.”
“Much like my past self, I too developed evil thoughts within me due to getting tainted by Earthlings’ evil thoughts.”
“At times like this, the divine dragon will, like us Namekians, expel all the evil thoughts from within themselves to maintain their purity. However, doing so might give birth to a Black Smoke Shenron, just as when Kami expelled his evil thoughts, he gave birth to Great Demon King Piccolo.”
“So, Mr. Lin Chen, to eliminate the evil energy from the Dragon Balls, you must go to the Dragon Realm and purify the Black Smoke Shenron on behalf of your divine dragon.”
After hearing Kamiccolo’s explanation, Lin Chen was even more confused. He had never heard of the Dragon Realm before, so how could he go there?
“Kamiccolo, how do I go to the Dragon Realm?”
“This…,” Kamiccolo was also at a loss. While he knew about the Dragon Realm and Black Smoke Shenron from Great Demon King Piccolo’s memories, he didn’t know how to go to the Dragon Realm.
“Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the task of finding a way to eliminate the evil power of the Dragon Balls. Reward: Elementary Power of Miracles!”
At that moment, the prompt in Lin Chen’s ear confirmed that Kamiccolo’s information was correct. Going to the Dragon Realm to purify the Shadow Dragon was indeed the method the mission had tasked Lin Chen with to cleanse the Dragon Balls. Now the question was, how should he go to the Dragon Realm?
As Lin Chen pondered whether to return to his own world and seek the omniscient Zuno’s help, a voice suddenly spoke up nearby.
“Um… if you want to go to the Dragon Realm, Popo can help.”
Huh?
Lin Chen turned to see that the one who had spoken was none other than Mr. Popo!
Kamiccolo and the others were also surprised by Popo’s offer.
“Mr. Popo, can you really help Mr. Lin Chen go to the Dragon Realm?”
“It should be possible,” Mr. Popo nodded.
Lin Chen approached him, looking skeptical. “Mr. Popo, do you know how to get to the Dragon Realm?”
“As long as you have a token of the Dragon God, you can go to the Dragon Realm. You’re quite lucky; there happens to be a Dragon God token on Earth. Because of your help in saving the Earth, Mr. Popo can lend you this token for one-time use.”
“Really? That’s fantastic!”
Although Lin Chen was somewhat skeptical about how Mr. Popo could possess such an item, he expressed his gratitude.
After a brief wait, everyone saw Mr. Popo approaching with a small, shimmering green dragon figurine.
“This is the key to the Dragon Realm.”
“Mr. Popo…” Lin Chen suddenly thought of something, “I’m from another world; will that have any effect?”
“No, the Dragon Realm is a unique place in the entire universe, just like the Time Nest you’ve visited before.”
“Huh? You know about the Time Nest?”
Lin Chen was once again surprised.
“You have the scent of Tokitoki on you,” Mr. Popo explained.
“Mr. Popo, who are you really?” Lin Chen asked the question once more.
However, Mr. Popo merely gave Lin Chen a glance and placed the green dragon figurine on the ground.
“All right, the portal to the Dragon Realm is about to open; you should prepare yourself.”
