As Lin Chuan and Kami vanished from the lookout.
The afterlife, the underworld.
“So this is the afterlife?”
Arriving, Lin Chuan surveyed the surroundings.
Ahead lay the endless path of Snake Way.
On this road were countless white souls.
These were the souls of the deceased, awaiting judgment by King Yama.
Looking to the side.
Ahead was King Yama’s palace.
“That building is where King Yama judges souls.” Kami explained.
“I know, let’s go.” Lin Chuan casually replied, stepping forward.
Ignoring the ghosts maintaining order and the queuing souls.
His sudden appearance disrupted the order.
But no one dared to stop them.
One was a living person.
The other is Kami.
“Next.”
In King Yama’s hall, his lazy voice echoed.
Lin Chuan, without a word, stepped forward nonchalantly, approaching King Yama’s desk.
He wasn’t afraid, but Kami was nearly having a heart attack.
King Yama noticed the living person.
“A living person?! How did you come to the afterlife?! Oh, it’s you again, Kami? You always do this, causing me headaches.” King Yama, finding it amusing, spoke up after a laugh.
“I’m terribly sorry, King Yama. This person also wants to see King Kai.” Kami nervously explained.
“Just recently, those two returned with successful training. So, more people want to see King Kai? Hmmm… Do you all think anyone can traverse Snake Way? Those called Goku and Raditz nearly fell into hell. If not for my leniency, they wouldn’t have had the chance to meet King Kai.” King Yama glanced at Kami, speaking.
Clearly, he felt that any random person trying Snake Way was an affront.
Kami was helpless, not knowing how to respond, looking at Lin Chuan.
He decided not to intervene, leaving it to Lin Chuan.
“You’re mistaken, King Yama! I’m not who you think! I don’t need to run Snake Way, just need to meet King Kai for some business. Passing through here is just a formality.” Lin Chuan spoke directly.
Others feared King Yama, but not him.
If he were dead, King Yama could judge him.
But as a living person, King Yama had no jurisdiction.
Hearing Lin Chuan’s words, King Yama fumed.
Lin Chuan, not caring, told Kami, “You can go back now.”
With that, Lin Chuan spread his energy sense.
Soon, he sensed King Kai’s presence.
Using Instant Transmission, he vanished.
Leaving behind a bewildered King Yama, Kami, and numerous ghosts and waiting souls.
…
On King Kai’s planet.
Unaware of Lin Chuan’s arrival, King Kai was enjoying himself.
Driving his vintage car, King Kai felt relaxed and joyful.
Since Goku and Raditz left, he had more free time.
Apart from driving and reading jokes, he watched bloody scenes with his special ability.
Life as a Kai seemed dull and monotonous, yet it had its pleasures.
“Ah! After training Goku and Raditz for a year, it’s a bit hard to adjust.”
“Without them, life feels quite boring.”
King Kai sighed, looking towards Snake Way.
Not watching the road while driving, he didn’t expect Lin Chuan to appear.
Instantly, King Kai was startled.
‘Boom!!!’
A car crash occurred.
King Kai’s car hit Lin Chuan.
The person was unscathed, but King Kai’s car was heavily damaged, with tires flying off.
“No! My beloved car!!!” King Kai, crawling up, first thought of his heartache.
Seeing the wreck, he was about to get angry.
But recognizing Lin Chuan, his anger faded, replaced by disbelief.
“Y-you’re that Saiyan from Earth, Talos?!” King Kai exclaimed.
“Huh? Didn’t expect you to know me, King Kai. Looks like you’ve been watching Earth’s events. Good, saves me from introductions.” Lin Chuan smiled.
Surprised but relieved, King Kai didn’t dwell on the car.
“Ahem, never thought you’d come here. Talos, what brings you to my planet?”
“Do you wish to train under me?”
King Kai asked, curious.
Lin Chuan shook his head.
“Though I’m interested in your Kaioken, my main purpose is to seek your help in finding the coordinates of Planet Yardrat. I’d also like to try Instant Transmission from here.” Lin Chuan said.
Hearing Planet Yardrat, King Kai was momentarily stunned.
“I see, you’re after the Yardratian’s special abilities?”
As the Northern Kai, he knew the planets well.
“You guessed right.”
Lin Chuan didn’t deny it.
There was no need to hide it.
“No problem, let me locate Planet Yardrat.” King Kai didn’t hesitate, using his ability.
His antennae twitched, using a peculiar power.
“Speaking of which, you’ve already learned Instant Transmission, which is a Yardratian technique, right?” King Kai said while searching.
“It’s a long story, just find it first.” Lin Chuan evaded.
He felt a bit of admiration for King Kai.
This guy was quite smart.
…
Time passed as Lin Chuan waited quietly.
Finally, after a while, King Kai found Planet Yardrat.
“Found it, Planet Yardrat’s location.”
“But something seems off… something big is happening on the planet…”
“Wait!! That… that guy is… Cooler??!! Why is he on Planet Yardrat?!”
King Kai’s exclamation made Lin Chuan’s face change.
Cooler?!
This character from the movies was no stranger to him.
Frieza’s brother existed in this main timeline.
And now, according to King Kai, he was on Planet Yardrat.
【What kind of storyline is this? Is it another butterfly effect caused by my presence? Nonsense!】 Lin Chuan thought.
Suddenly, he remembered something.
In the original story, Cooler used Instant Transmission against Super Saiyan Goku.
Thinking about it now, how did Cooler learn Instant Transmission?
Was this a coincidence or destined?
“It seems Planet Yardrat is facing a catastrophe. Encountering Frieza’s brother, this Cooler is even more ruthless.” King Kai lamented for Yardrat.
Cooler’s power was known to him, even more terrifying than Frieza.
Looking at Lin Chuan, King Kai sensed something.
“I’ve found Planet Yardrat’s location, but it’s under attack by Cooler’s forces, likely to be destroyed soon.”
“Cooler is the brother of the current universe emperor, Frieza. You might not know Cooler, but you must know how terrifying Frieza is…”
“Do you still want to go?”
He hoped Lin Chuan would go.
After all, Lin Chuan could transform into a Super Saiyan, and his transformed power, by King Kai’s estimation, could easily deal with Cooler.
“Though surprising, encountering him now isn’t bad. I could use a good fight.”
Sensing King Kai’s thoughts, Lin Chuan had his own ideas.
Cooler, with a power level of 470 million in the original story, wasn’t an easy opponent but could be fun.
Since fighting his future daughter ten days ago, his desire for battle grew stronger.
“Then… well…” King Kai sweated.
“Tell me Planet Yardrat’s location, or rather, can you help me sense the energy there so I can use Instant Transmission.” Lin Chuan said.
“Previously, it would’ve been difficult, needing a strong energy to sense. But with Cooler there, it’s easy.” King Kai said.
With King Kai’s help, Lin Chuan understood true skill.
His will is connected to the lower universe.
He could not only see but sense the energy there.
Technically, Lin Chuan could also do this, but it would be imprecise.
“I’ll go first! After dealing with Cooler, I’ll come back to find you.” Lin Chuan smiled, locking onto Cooler’s energy and using Instant Transmission.
After a while, King Kai, still surprised, murmured, “Why come back to find me…”
