Dragon Ball: Goku Si c7

The next day, in the early morning, Goku and Roshi stood in a clearing facing each other.

It was time for that sparing match. Goku’s excitement could be barely contained as the boy had been waiting for this for several years!

A white flaming aura layer surrounded the boy as he stopped holding back, and his Ki started to climb. 

When Roshi sensed that, he was slightly taken aback.

“That's some energy you have there! I guess I simply can’t hold back.” The old man removed his shirt, and his muscles inflated.

At that moment, his Ki spiked as well. The pair took identical stances, using the turtle style.

“Let’s go!” 

Goku kicked off as his foot broke the ground and rushed to deliver his fist.

Roshi immediately showed his countless years of experience as he masterfully dodged it, even with his inflated body size.

The old man dodged before trying to punch, but Goku simply floated away.

“Oh? impressive utilisation of that technique!” 

The old man praised Goku for using flying in combat. He wants to see his rival’s face when he sees his student learning this art by himself.

Goku swiftly floated to face to engage in hand-to-hand combat, which slowly shifted into higher gear.

Their exchange started to get faster and faster.

The boy’s eyes slowly changed to cyan instead of black. His Ki started to increase rapidly, and Roshi slowly started to lose ground.

‘So that's what it was… some sort of transformation?’

The old man immediately took his distance and assumed Kamehameha's stance.

When Goku saw this, he jumped back and did the same.

“Goku! Show me your Kamehameha!” The old man pulled his hands back and started to charge his beam.

“Right!”

The Saiyan did the same.

Both of them started to charge.

“”Ka–Me–Ha–Me—””

Blue balls of energy gathered in their hands before pushing forward and releasing the energy waves towards a collision.

“””HAAA!!!””

The beams collided, creating a beam struggle.

Roshi did this to make Goku feel that ‘pressure’ he wanted.

Upon collision, Goku felt that pressure as if he were getting pushed into a corner.

‘It appears Roshi is stronger than me at his max power!’

As he felt that pressure, he started tapping into his ‘inner power’, which was all it took for that to happen!

That moment…

‘The Gates’ for his inner power opened. He mentally visualised this moment long ago, but this time, his body listened to him, and a reaction happened.

His hair spiked and turned gold.

At that moment, his aura ignited, becoming a proper flaming, not the simple white layer. 

At the same time, his power magnified and dwarfed Roshi many times. 

Goku’s Kamehameha wave consumes the old man’s, sending it flying into the distance and exploding in the sky, destroying whatever clouds were there.

“...Incredible… what is this?” 

The old man slowly lowered his hands and looked dumbfounded at the golden boy who was struggling to keep the transformation going.

Before he could say anything, the boy collapsed, and the transformation was gone.

“...amazing… his power increased severalfold, no tens if not twenty times!?” Turtle Hermit dismissed his bulk up.

He slowly walked over to passed-out Goku.

‘It appears I need to send him to Korin. He might have the means to help this boy properly control this transformation.’

Roshi placed his hand on the boy. His eyes slightly widened as he sensed that boy’s base power increased as well!

‘I see, so it was something akin to a limit breaker?’

The hermit picked the boy and then proceeded to take him back to his house.

~~~

“Ugh…”

Goku opened his eyes. He quickly realised that he was in Roshi’s house.

For a second, he pondered what happened. How did he end up here? The last thing he remembers…

His eyes widened as he recalled his transformation!

He swiftly left his bed and inspected himself.

His base power… doubled? Somewhere around that! At the same time, he sensed that his ‘inner gates’, which he brands as inner power, had been opened.

That means there is nothing holding him back!

The boy swiftly left the house and took some distance.

Once away from it, his switch flipped, and his body bulked. His eyes turned cyan, and his hair spiked before turning gold.

A flaming aura ignited as he easily transformed into Super Saiyan.

“A-Amazing! I feel so light now!” The boy inspected himself and performed some casual exercises. 

He realised that his power might have increased, but it was not fifty times. It was much less. Considering that his body is not mature enough and his base Ki is very small, it should become around fifty times by the time his control over it increases.

Honestly, after achieving this form, he can sense that after passing those ‘gates’, he is walking through a wide wilderness, ready for exploration and to find new limits.

After spending a couple of minutes in this transformation, Goku felt enormous exhaustion as he dismissed it, collapsing on the ground with a head full of sweat and haggard breath.

“...Okay… this is intense… the moment I undid, I felt like someone punched me in the gut.”

The boy took several more breaths before calling for his magic to recover himself.

He quickly sensed that his base Ki increased once again.

“Let’s see…”

The boy returned to the house and went through his stuff.

He had his dragon balls, a couple of capsules Bulma gave him and, of course, the Scouter.

The boy put it on and then checked his power level.

“... 451… damn…” 

The boy removed the scouter as he looked with disbelief.

The last time he clocked his power, it was at 115… 

“It appears Super Saiyan will push me towards a certain boundary before I reach a certain plateau…”

The Saiyan mumbled to himself as he placed the scouter back and then returned to the outside. He needed to recollect his magic, but now that his power had increased that much, he should have a wider range of absorption. 

After spending a couple of hours doing just that, Roshi was back with tired-looking Yamcha and Krillin.

“You two go rest; I will speak with Goku.” The old man sent the two to the house to rest while he walked over to Goku’s side.

“Goku, there is not much I can assist you anymore. But, I know a place where you could continue your train.

“There is a tower in the Sacred Land of Korin, and you will need to pass a barren wasteland to reach that place. It will be a good place for you to continue your training.” The old man explained this to Goku, who was thinking the same thing at that point.

“...I will go there after I stabilise my new transformation, Master Roshi.” The Saiyan boy nodded with a smile.

“Very well, just don’t overdo it,” the Turtle Hermit replied with a nod before walking to his house.

After that, Goku focused on his training, which he had done before, and that was to stay in Super Saiyan as long as possible.

It was similar to his Oozaru training, where he would sometimes spend the entire day and night in Great Ape form. Now, that was a challenge as he would need to continuously absorb the waves even during the day when the amount the moon was radiating was significantly less, as the celestial body was on the other side of the planet at that specific time.

But in the end, after many trials, he succeeded in multitasking.

So, the Super Saiyan transformation is similar in that regard, maybe even more difficult. After the transformation, his body ends up extremely exhausted, and if he pushes it more than necessary, he could even die because of the multiplier factor of the transformation.

Goku realised that on his second day as Super Saiyan. 

The concept is similar to that of a skyscraper. The foundation of a skyscraper is his base power. So, if one wants to have a tall building, one needs a strong foundation.

At this moment, if he goes to Super Saiyan, he uses not only his Ki to transform but also his Ki, which is drained alongside his stamina, to keep the transformation going.

If he drags it more than necessary, he will start damaging himself, which will lead to a zentai boost later on.

Honestly, he is gambling with his life by unlocking this form so early in his life and with so little Ki.

~~~~~~Half a Year Later~~~~~~

Time went on, and Goku’s constant training did bear great results. By this point, Turtle Hermit, Yamcha, and Krillin were used to seeing Goku sporting his blond rather than black hair.

It has reached the point that the boy even sleeps in Super Saiyan as he learned to keep it on all the time.

Because of this, his Ki reached high levels. The boy even stopped using the scouter for fear that it would break. As far as he is aware, these old models of scooters don’t work beyond 2 thousand.

As Goku passed that limit a couple of months ago.

He did sense that his Ki finally stabilised around 5 thousand as he was using the scouter's benchmark before he stopped using it.

It's his rough estimation, but it should be around that level.

Regardless, now that he is at such a stable level, he can continue with his training!

The Super Saiyan boy jumped from his new tree stump with a flip. He landed close to the house.

“Goku? You already done with your training?” Krillin asked the blonde.

“Yes, my power has stabilised. I think it's time I travel to Korin’s tower,” Goku said to the bald kid.

“...Oh. I see. Sad to hear that you are leaving.” The ex-monk sounded dissapointed. 

By this point, Yamcha and Krillin had become close friends with the Saiyan, as Goku helped and gave hints on how to improve Ki's control.

Because of that, they became quite powerful by human standards.

“You guys should visit Korin after you guys graduate this school.”

“...I guess…”

“Come now. If you started, you should not stop midway now.” The blonde Saiyan grinned as he offered his fist.

Krillin sighed as Goku showed again how lunatic he was. 

Reaching Korin’s place is extremely difficult, and he has no idea how to fly!

“UGH… Fine!”

The fellow turtle student bumped his fist at Goku’s. 

“Good. Then I will see you there.”

Saiyan waved at Krillin before walking to speak with Yamcha and Master Roshi.

~~~

“Goku, follow me.” Master Roshi was already prepared for Goku’s departure.

The boy followed his Master to the house.

Inside the house, they went to a storage room where boxes were placed. He opened one of them. Inside the box was a red Gi with the ‘Turtle’ symbol on it.

“This is for you.” The Hermit Turtle pulled out the Gi and offered it to the boy.

“So…cool…” He finally got the classic Goku clothes! But he noticed the colour was slightly darker.

“I was thinking the classic orange, but then I realised that it doesn’t fit that well with your Super Saiyan hair. Orange is great, but too much can bloat it.” 

Goku nodded at his Master.

“Indeed.” Regardless, he took the Gi and changed. 

Once in new clothes, he swiftly used magic on them, making them grow and adjust if needed. He then improved their durability and made them dirt-free as well!

“...Oh, right!”

The Super Saiyan got an idea!

“He swiftly placed his hand on his chest, then called forth his magic. He created a blue undershirt, blue wristbands, and the iconic weighted shoes.

These clothes were actually weighted clothes that were enchanted to always be heavy.

That means regardless of his power level, he will always have this resistance, which he can use for training!

Training 24/7! 

After he was done, he could feel that he was quite sluggish now.

“Hmm? What are those?” Master Roshi walked over and inspected the blue undershirt.

“Weighted clothes.” 

“....Hohoho…”

“Before you, can you make these for those two?” The old turtle ‘smiled’ at his graduating student.

“Of course,” Goku nodded as he left the house and looked for Krillin and Yamcha.

…

…

…

“GOKUUU!!! NOOO!!!” Krillin screamed from the top of his lungs as he got Goku’s farewell gift…

~~~~~~Meanwhile~~~~~~

A black portal with dark purple boundaries appeared high above a forest. 

A person dropped out of it. Her clothes were unique as she had two earrings, elven-like ears, light blue skin and darker blue hair.

She looked like someone had beaten her and done something to her power as black lightning surrounded her whole frame.

“...Damn… you…Demigra…”

The girl mumbled before falling into the forest below.
