The strongest warrior of the current era on Planet Namek!
Nail’s arrival surprised Nail, but he still managed to keep his composure and asked,
“Nail, did you come here because you saw the spaceship arriving to check the situation?”
“Just now, I’ve mostly confirmed that they are visitors from Earth, who have also brought back one of our people who was lost in space.”
With Nail’s introduction, Nail nodded his head.
“The Grand Elder had already foreseen this situation, so he sent me to bring them to meet him.”
Nail straightforwardly explained his purpose.
This surprised Nail, who then respectfully said, “Is that so? Has the Grand Elder already been informed? Then, shall I go with you?”
As he finished speaking, Nail shook his head before he could say anything further: “No need, you go back to your tribe. The Grand Elder’s safety is under our protection. For now, it would be better if you don’t stray too far or too long from your tribe.”
With such words, Nail clearly understood the meaning Nail was trying to convey.
In recent years, they were all given their respective tough tasks by the Grand Elder’s summons, and none could act on their initiative.
“Understood, then I will go back first.” Nodding, Nail turned to look at Lin Chuan, Piccolo, and the others, smiled, and took his leave: “Since the Grand Elder wishes to meet you, I cannot insist on taking you to the tribe to rest. This Nail is our clan’s most powerful warrior, and he will escort you all safely.”
After Nail left, as outsiders, Lin Chuan and Piccolo could not stop him.
After all, even Piccolo, a Namekian, was still considered an outsider.
After sending Nail off, Nail’s gaze swept over everyone.
Finally, his gaze settled on Piccolo.
Indeed, among clan members, they care more about each other.
Even though Lin Chuan emitted an aura that demanded serious attention, it was not as significant as a clan member of equal power.
Most importantly, this clansman had developed formidable strength abroad.
He looked at them, and they all closely observed him.
Piccolo displayed his aloof nature even more distinctly after locking eyes with Nail.
Piccolo never believed he was inferior to anyone, especially after continuously strengthening his power.
He knew of Nail’s formidable strength.
If it weren’t for his recent rigorous training in the gravity room and Lin Chuan’s help, the version of himself that was still on Earth would have been merely an ant compared to Nail.
“Returnee and distant guests, please follow me.” Nail spoke up, breaking the silence.
Without hesitation, Lin Chuan and Piccolo nodded in succession, followed by Gohan.
Bulma and Chi-Chi, after confirming they would all go together, quickly packed the spaceship back into a capsule and then took out jetpacks.
Bulma prepared these in advance, and they were upgraded versions.
The era has changed; the old jetpacks were too slow, so after the modifications, the new jetpacks were several times faster and no longer limited by altitude issues.
This was also a fulfillment of Bulma’s promise made under Korin Tower—that she would use her mastery of technology to reach Kami’s Lookout on her own.
During Nail’s guidance, which wasn’t fast, they passed through a Namekian tribe, allowing everyone to witness the life of the Namekians.
Simple and unadorned.
In these four words, Bulma and Gohan understood the Namekians by observing the hardworking Namekians and their way of life.
This encounter with the Namekians also let everyone, except Lin Chuan, know that not all Namekians possess the great strength of Piccolo, Nail, or Nail.
Soon, under Nail’s lead, the group arrived at the residence of the Namekian Grand Elder.
Seeing the visitors, two Namekians guarding the Grand Elder were amazed.
After a round of inquiries and exchanges, they understood the situation and withdrew.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to continue communicating, but the Grand Elder was eager to meet them.
Seeing the Grand Elder’s stature and visage, even Lin Chuan, who was mentally prepared, was taken aback.
Of course, the Grand Elder’s strength shocked Lin Chuan the most, with a power level in the hundreds of thousands!
This was the old Grand Elder near death; it was hard to imagine how powerful he was in his youth.
Everyone was surprised, not to mention Gohan, Chi-Chi, and Bulma.
Chi-Chi and Bulma were scared and hid behind Lin Chuan and Gohan.
Was it the fear of what this huge old fellow might do to them?
Piccolo, however, only showed a hint of surprise before regaining his composure.
He could distinctly feel that the Grand Elder was different from the other Namekians outside.
That feeling of connection on a life level, as if… he originated from him!
“Great… Elder…” Piccolo whispered words at the tip of his tongue, yet he didn’t know how to continue.
“My lost child… it’s truly wonderful to see you… Can you come closer and let me look at you?” Although the Grand Elder disguised his voice and forcefully mustered his energy, his weakness was evident.
Hearing this, Piccolo hesitated momentarily before stepping forward to the Grand Elder.
The other slowly raised his massive right hand and gently placed it on his head.
Such an action, which would normally be considered a desecration of Piccolo’s dignity, should have enraged him… but strangely, he felt neither anger nor resistance.
The Grand Elder’s touch felt like a father caring for him.
An unprecedented sensation broke Piccolo’s mental barrier, increasing his power level.
Reaching a certain level of power, sometimes a sudden epiphany, could also lead to a rise in strength.
Others might not have seen it, but Lin Chuan had noticed it.
Certainly, the Grand Elder must have felt it, too.
“So it is, because a part of oneself was separated, that missing part was lost…”
Strange power spread from the Grand Elder’s hand to Piccolo’s entire body, and he then vocalized Piccolo’s situation.
Although they were not too private, Piccolo could feel that the Grand Elder was silently reading his memories.
After a moment of silence, the Grand Elder smiled kindly again.
“You perfectly inherited everything from Katas, and you look almost exactly like your father when he was young…”
“Unfortunately, if you hadn’t been split into two separate entities, you might have been thousands of times stronger than you are now…”
Everyone was stunned as the Grand Elder spoke, especially Gohan, Bulma, and Chi-Chi.
A complete Piccolo is thousands of times stronger than now—what concept is that?
