Dragon Ball: Goku Si c28

“How long do you intend to hold me like this?” Aeos, who was still in Goku’s hands, began to complain.

“As long as I need to.” He replied as his hands were around her waist, as he was humming happily.

Sigh

“Fine. I suppose it’s part of the ritual.” The Goddess has no clear explanation about this thing. So she was thinking about how this works.

“It is~~~.”

He pulled her through the doors and appeared in the real world.

The moment he did, he realised that gravity was non-existent! It’s like he was a feather! 

“This is great! I feel so light!” He gushed as he realised how weird it was!

“That’s because the gravity in the temple I prepared was adaptive. That means for weeks, you experienced heavy pressure on your body.” She explained, quite proud of what she created.

“As expected from my Aeos!”

“Hmph, I am a Goddess. It should be obvious.” She proudly commented.

“Indeed. But praising my fiancé should be given.” As he said, he picked her up in a Princess carry. Her eyes widened! What is he doing!?

“Relax~~~.” He calmed her down, as he saw how her eyes were darting from one side to another.

“Now let’s get some food.” He flew away towards his capsule house.

As he was flying, he noticed that there were some decent power levels in his Sect.

Compared to the rest of the world.

After landing in the house, he took his Goddess inside and let her sit on the couch.

“Hmm, I think it’s time I began to learn how to cook.” She said in a pondering tone.

“Oh? Sure, then come over.” He motioned for her to join him. 

Aeos nodded as she followed him to the kitchen, where Goku pulled out slabs of meat from freezers. 

“Well, let’s start with basics—” The Saiyan began to teach her about the beauty of meat!

~~~

“Yo! Goku! It has been months!” A bit taller, Krillin walked over. His aura improved considerably.

“I guess. I've been heavily training recently.” 

The bald ex-monk looked at Goku. The Saiyan looked way different. His aura was chill, and his hair was just like it was when he met him for the first time, apart from being blonde. But still! He recalled that long hair! 

“But… I can barely sense you!”

“That’s because he went full circle.” Aeos, next to him, replied.

Krillin finally noticed that Aeos was an adult… and the pressure he was sensing from her was crazier than ever before.

He is certain that she was a God of some sort, as no matter how much he trains, she just appears stronger and stronger!

“Full circle? What does that mean?” 

“It means that he has all the power and no drawbacks. No more spiky hair, or uncontrolled power.” She explained before sighing.

“And he is stronger than I now.” Out of nowhere, she admitted that!

“H-He is!?” 

Krillin pulled back! What the hell!?

“I guess. Aeos would be stronger, but she needs to start training.” Goku’s hand went to her waist and pulled her closer.

The Goddess rolled her eyes at that comment. Well, she needs to check if she could potentially improve.

Well, she needs to, as she can’t maintain her transformation all the time…

“I suppose I should start.” She closed her eyes while saying that.

“I-I see. So, how did you achieve this state? Because I can barely sense you!” For now, Krillin ignored the fact that Goku surpassed Aeon! Instead, he focused on his non-existent Ki.

“Meditation.” Goku raised his finger and called forth a portion of his Ki. It was enough to make Krillin pale.

“I-I see…” 

“Anyway, I will be teaching this Return to Origin style. I got this inspiration when I achieved Super Saiyan Three.” The Saiyan explained that he had brought some food and placed it on the table.

“Instead, tell me about the Sect.”

“Well, some of the fighters from the last tournament joined. Remember that three-eyed guy and his small floating pal? They joined us as well.” Krillin explained.

“Oh? Tien Shinhan joined? Interesting.” Goku used his foresight to check the Sect and the grounds. He could see his wisps were still around, and so was Aeos. They behave like teachers and instructors for all the people.

“It has been months, and yet they are still around.” The Saiyan commented with a chuckle.

“It should be obvious. They don’t need much to exist.” Aeos shrugged; she wasn’t surprised. Though the technique is fascinating, she should have invented something similar many years ago.

“I guess.” He shrugged before looking at Krillin, wanting to hear anything interesting.

“Well, the tournament is approaching. Do you want to join?” Krillin asked him.

“I will. I think this one will be the last one for a while. I think I will immortalise myself with this one.” Goku pondered. It was the last one with any worth to him. Piccolo should pop up. They need to make him strong, for the sake of the Dragon Balls.

“I see! So I can win the next one!” The bald Ex-monk pumped his fist! He is certain that there is no one else who could beat him!

“Sure. Bring fame to my sect.” Goku smiled.

“Don’t worry!” He showed him a thumbs-up. He got this covered.

“And where is Yamcha?” The Saiyan realised that he didn’t see the Ex-bandit anywhere.

Krillin sighed when he heard that.

“Yamcha realised that he could get girls, now that he is one of the strongest in the world.” 

When Goku heard that, he looked around before spotting him with his Foresight.

He sighed when he saw Yamcha with a bunch of girls. He looked like a Young Master, surrounded by martial arts girls.

“I see your point.” 

“Should I straighten him out?” Aeos was feeling that she should be the one who beat that guy up!

“I mean, he still trains a lot.” Krillin tried to defend his ex-bandit.

“I am surprised that he is not running away from the sight of females.” Goku is surprised, but then he recalls that Yamcha flipped anyway and got surrounded by girls either way.

But now he is a thousand times stronger.

‘I am surprised. He could give a good whooping to the Ginyu forces.’ The Saiyan noticed Yamcha’s power level.

“He kind of realised that they are not dangerous. After that…well.” The bald ex-monk looked away.

“...Is that so?” Aeos looked at the bald martial artist with cold eyes.

“Relax. I can see that our wisps are watching him over.” 

“Hnnn.” She shrugged before looking where he was looking. It seemed he was right; the Goddess could see her wisps watching what the Ex-bandit was doing.

It was clear that he was a happy dog who finally got attention from girls.

“Poor guy. Doesn’t he realise that those girls only want an easy life?” Goku shook his head in disappointment.

“You can tell?” Aeos looked curious as a deity. She doesn’t quite grasp how mortal women think.

“I am curious how you can see through walls.” Krillin looked at both of them, annoyed. This power looked broken!

“Foresight,” Goku explained before pulling his gaze away and looking at his friend.

“It’s something Korin taught me.” 

“H-He did!? Why didn’t he teach us!?” Krillin exclaimed in shock.

“That’s because there was not much to teach my Goku. So he went to teach his most advanced techniques.” The Goddess explained, while Goku simply chuckled while rubbing the back of his head.

“I see. I will visit him later, I want to learn this!” It sounded useful to watch things from a distance.

“Do that.” Aeos looked strange while saying that. She wanted to see if the bald ex-monk could master it. If he could, then it would be proof that Krillin could potentially master God Ki.

“O-Okay.”

“Anyway, let’s eat.” Goku reminded them that there is food waiting for them.

“Sure.” Krillin nodded while the Goddess in question looked at the food that she had assisted in making

“Let’s see how well my cooking skills are.”

“...”

The bald Ex-monk stopped for a second. Is this her first time cooking?

That frightful gaze made the Goddess' cold eyes narrow at him. He gulped nervously as he felt that if he didn’t taste it, he would die!

It’s not a threat! But reality!

~~~

After eating their first meal, Krillin scrambled to get back to his training. While the food was good enough, he couldn’t stand the intense pressure the Goddess was radiating! 

Clearly, she doesn’t know how to hold back! 

With the bald Ex-monk gone, the pair decided to explore the Sect. It had been a while, and there were a decent number of new people.

As the pair were walking through the walkway of the sect, Goku noticed quite a decent number of people already living here. He used his magical scouter to check people's specific power levels, as he thought they were too small to sense a difference by this point.

‘Some of them are in 100s, some young girls are in 80’s… occasional 150’s… incredible, to think that these people just a while back were mundane people.’

Even though he was praising, it began as the closer he was to the martial arenas or training grounds, the more people he saw in the 1000s and even 4000s… 

“Impressive. They are stronger than high-class Saiyan warriors.”

“That’s nothing special. Your relatives from Planet Vegeta might have inborn talents that they have no idea how to train those gifts.

You are proof that Saiyans can become Gods if they train properly.

As they were walking, they noticed Yamcha, who was with his group of females.

The female powers ranged from their 30s to 90s, nothing special.

That was until Aeos saw someone who made her whole body twitch.

She never had such a reaction in front of Demon Gods or any of the opponents she had faced before. It was because it was to test her mantle as a Divine Being.

But this was different! This was to test her mettle as a female, something she had never done before in her very long life!

What she was looking at was THAT Mortal woman—the very same mortal woman Goku was supposed to marry! He does that in 99.99% of the timelines she knows.

And yet… in this one, separated from the main timeline, she is the one who got his attention! The first thing that came to her mind was to erase her! But she controlled herself and instead grabbed the Saiyan’s hand and hugged it. She began to radiate a possessive aura.

“Relax. I run from her on purpose.” Goku joked.

“...I see…” Even if he said that, she kept holding his hand.

The Saiyan rolled his eyes as they watched how Chi-Chi got close to Yamcha and his group of females.

The pair watched as this girl began to challenge these weak females one after another, which terrified the girls as they left one after another.

The next thing they saw was Chi-Chi showing her domineering face to Yamcha. The poor Ex-bandit was a thousand times stronger than this girl, yet he came in easily.

‘Damn… this Yamcha could whoop Ginyu’s ass but he gave up when Chi–Chi demanted a date with her.’

“For some reason, I feel better now,” Aeos said with a relieved expression. 

Goku simply chuckled as he watched the Goddess' expression. It was something else to see her show such human-like expressions.

“What?” She turned her head and looked at him. All she got was a grin as he pulled her in for a hug. 

“Nothing~~~.” He shook his head before pulling her to explore more of the Sect.

He noticed that the sect was slowly becoming a city—the houses he had prepared beforehand were slowly filling up. The classic system of point currency was slowly taking off.

The issue is that he needs to figure out more items to exchange. But he can make those with magic items in bulk.

‘Some stuff similar to Xianxia tropes? Well, I already have Senzu Beans, I could make some other stuff too…’

The Saiyan had some ideas, just from the top of his head.
