When Vegeta also woke up under Buu’s treatment, he immediately wanted to go find Goku for a rematch. However, Piccolo stopped him.
“Wait, Vegeta. Even if you go look for Goku now, it might not be useful. He can use Instant Transmission; if he wants to leave, no one can stop him!”
“What should we do then? Just let him roam around causing destruction? I’ve fought him, so I know, Kakarot is not the same as before!”
Vegeta sternly said, “He’s a demon more fierce than the past me, and most importantly, he’s a combat genius!”
“That’s exactly why we shouldn’t go after him now!”
Gohan, seeing Piccolo’s serious expression, suddenly spoke, “Uncle Piccolo, do you have a solution?”
“You could say so. Don’t forget, we still have Shenron.”
“Shenron?”
The others raised their heads, gazing at Shenron that had yet to disappear in the sky.
“Uncle Piccolo, didn’t Shenron say earlier that it doesn’t have a way to turn Dad back?”
“No, it’s not that it doesn’t have a way, but that it can’t. However, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t know if there’s a way.”
“Uncle Piccolo, what do you mean?”
“Huh?” Goten, listening to Piccolo’s somewhat convoluted words, felt a bit dizzy.
“Stupid Goten, Uncle Piccolo means we can ask Shenron for a way to turn Mr. Goku back,” Trunks mocked.
Hearing that, Gohan immediately raised his head and asked Shenron, “Shenron, do you know a way to turn Dad back?”
“Yes, if you make thy wish!”
Shenron’s answer brought joy to everyone’s faces.
Meanwhile, on the other side, on North Kai’s Planet…
Goku had one hand on Supreme Kai’s back, while the other was gulping down food and water on North Kai’s Planet.
“Sorry, Kai-sama, I’ve exhausted too much energy. I need to rest here for a bit.”
“Goku… I never thought you would turn into evil; it’s truly hard to believe. But Goku, why did you come to me? This isn’t a good place for rest.”
Feeling the faint killing intent emanating from Goku, North Kai dared not make any rash moves and could only let him recover.
“Because only here can I better monitor the mortal world. I need rest now, but the Dragon Balls are in play, and I absolutely can’t ignore them. So the best choice is to rest while using your power to observe them.”
“You, you…”
Although Goku had turned evil, his previous combat intelligence had not diminished at all.
It’s precisely this aspect that North Kai finds even more terrifying.
Indeed, compared to those past villains, Goku turning evil is the most terrifying.
While North Kai dared not act recklessly and could only comply with Goku’s actions, everything on North Kai’s Planet also fell under the watchful eyes of Lin Chen, who was hiding in the distance.
“What will Goku do next?”
Lin Chen was now certain that the clues above Super Saiyan 4 must be on Goku, so he naturally intended to keep a close eye on him.
However, this time, Lin Chen didn’t know that the developments in this world were becoming entwined with him.
On Earth, Gohan was ready to make a wish to Shenron.
But Piccolo warned, “Gohan, are you sure you want to ask now? Although Goku’s whereabouts are unknown, I’m sure he’s hiding in the shadows, watching us!”
“If we ask Shenron now, our cards will be laid bare to him.”
“Uncle Piccolo, if you don’t have a better way, then we can only rely on Shenron.” Gohan turned around and said.
Piccolo remained silent for a moment, then nodded.
Vegeta also said, “Using schemes in front of Kakarot is useless. Gohan, go for it!”
“Alright!”
Gohan took a deep breath and looked at Shenron, saying, “Shenron, please tell us the way to restore my dad to normal!”
Shenron said, “Goku’s condition is caused by the demonic energy that triggered his Saiyan nature. To restore him, someone must subdue him with absolute strength, then use a force full of righteous energy to attack his head, driving away the Saiyan nature while calling back the other Goku within him.”
“Is that it?”
Hearing Shenron’s method, everyone’s faces showed a difficult expression.
“What a load of nonsense!” Vegeta spat.
His previous battle with Goku had already proven that in this world, Goku was undoubtedly the strongest.
Even he wasn’t Goku’s match, so who in this world could subdue him?
“Shenron, does the person you mentioned really exist in this world?” Gohan asked, wearing an uncertain expression.
In his desperation, he was only trying to grasp the last straw, but unexpectedly, Shenron gave him not just a straw but also a more effective remedy for the ailment.
“There is! That person is called Lin Chen, currently to the east of North Kai’s Planet, coordinates XXX, YYY.”
“What?”
“Lin Chen? Who is he?”
“Shenron…”
While Gohan and the others wanted to ask for more information, Shenron had already started to disappear due to fulfilling the wish.
Seeing this, Gohan could only turn to Vegeta.
“Uncle Vegeta, can you take us there?”
Vegeta looked embarrassed. “I only have a superficial understanding of Instant Transmission; I can only use it in close-range combat.”
“No problem, we have another way.”
Piccolo spoke, “North Kai’s Planet is in Other World. Dende is Kami; he can take us to Other World. Then we can directly go from there to North Kai’s Planet.”
“Let’s go then!”
With that, everyone swiftly flew towards Lookout.
Although they were not sure who this Lin Chen mentioned by Shenron was, it was their last hope.
Meanwhile, on North Kai’s Planet, Goku, through North Kai’s ability, also heard Shenron’s words.
This surprised him a bit.
“To the east of North Kai’s Planet? That’s nearby, right? Strange, why can’t I sense anything in that direction? North Kai?”
“I can’t sense anything either.” North Kai, like Goku, heard Shenron’s words but he couldn’t understand their meaning.
Similarly, he had no idea who this Lin Chen mentioned by Shenron was.
“Shenron actually said that person could defeat me? Ridiculous! I am the strongest in this world!”
Goku thought for a moment but didn’t immediately make any rash moves.
“Since that guy is nearby and hasn’t made a move, I don’t need to act recklessly. I’ll wait until I’ve recovered my strength first.”
“I want to see who this person is that Shenron says can completely suppress me.”
With that thought, Goku closed his eyes and began rapidly restoring his energy.
His actions seemed strange to Lin Chen, who was observing from afar.
Because he couldn’t see what was happening on Earth, Lin Chen didn’t know that, at this moment, his name had become known to everyone, and even his location had been discovered.
