Chapitre 19: Science
Bringing along all his old and new disciples, Shen has left the site of the old Crane School for the foreseeable future. He can't keep making trips back and forth between the hideout and the school.
"Will it really be fine to wipe out all of this man's memories and modify his body?" Dr. Flappe asks his boss, who stands in front of him.
"Yes! There is no other way," Shen coldly affirms. At last, Shen couldn't bring himself to kill his blood, but that doesn't mean Tao Pai Pai has been set scot-free; rather, it's the opposite. That evil man is now essentially half dead.
Shen has handed over the man to Dr. Flappe to turn him into a cyborg. Dr. Flappe can complete the task with ease. His research into the field of robotics has reached unprecedented heights—not at the level of a specialist like Dr. Gero, but still, our scientist is proudly the second best in this field.
Shen has also wiped out all of Tao's glaringly evil tendances through a wish from the Dragon Balls. It wasn't difficult to do so, as his brother was relatively weak compared to Shenlong; unlike in the case of a strong individual, the dragon didn't have to get Tao Pai Pai's approval before doing the deed.
Moving on... Shen again asks, another question. "So how have the disciples I sent to you been doing? Have they adjusted well?"
"Those five are doing well. They are smarter than average, and more importantly, they are diligent." Of course they are smart—these are the disciples Shen has put under Dr. Flappe to work as his assistants, in the hopes that they can learn from the veteran scientist.
"Is that so? Then what about the crippled disciples I sent you for treatment? How are they faring?"
"I am not a doctor... It's not within my expertise, but please be rest assured, with my mechanical enhancements, their damaged body parts are better than ever. It's no different from a full recovery."
Nodding in approval, Shen leaves the research facility.

Transferred to the cave hideout is also the pet pig, Ino-Shika-Cho.
The original Master Shen never bothered interacting with his pet pig; most of the time, giving orders was the only thing he would do. In contrast, the new Shen frequently plays along with it, so his pet too is very happy with the new arrangements.
The pig can also provide company to the younger disciples. There aren't many youngsters now, but that won't be the case in the future. So to make this place a little more livable, Shen had previously grown an indoor garden. In the span of a few years, the garden has transformed, looking more like a mini forest.
After roaming around the hideout for a while, Shen's eyes land on a group of profusely sweaty disciples. It's afternoon, so they are returning to their rooms to rest after carrying out their regular training regime.
These days, the disciples always have bright smiles on their faces; even now, that is the case. The reason for this is simple.
Shen enacting justice for them, even going as far as to go against his own brother... His actions have led the disciples to conjure up profound reverence for him. They hold this unprecedented action of his in very high regard.
Observing them from afar, Shen gets lost in thought. 'Their talent is rather mediocre in martial arts. They have little room for growth, so I should place most of them in more non-combat roles.'
It may look as if Shen is discarding them, but that is really not the case. He genuinely wants good for his disciples; rather than stay here, they should go out in the world, find a loving wife, and make a happy family.
Of course, country bumpkins like them, who have lived their whole lives in a remote mountain, can't possibly just leave this place and hope to easily adjust to the real world.
That is precisely why Shen has come up with a solution to help them.... These inexperienced disciples of his will fit perfectly for the new business ventures he is planning to undertake, thus providing them with a new and stable life...
This is him trying to make up for his past blunders as much as he can.... Afterall The responsibility falls on him.
Thus, his next few weeks are spent making the necessary arrangements for the disciples, along with the new business. The business is related to low-level civilian household robots. These robots are very versatile, so they will possibly prove helpful in many Plethora of ways.

Shen is currently staring keenly at the transparent pod before him. The liquid inside the pod gives off a greenish hue, adding to its scientific nature.
He is at the laboratory, and inside the liquid-filled pod is none other than his brother, Tao Pai Pai. Currently, the bloodthirsty man is in a vegetative state; obviously, this is done intentionally so as not to wake up the man mid-experiment.
He has decided to preserve the man's life. Evil they may have been, the legacy of the two evil brothers lives on in some sense.
Dr. Flappe is already working on upgrading and replacing his brother's organs with their mechanical counterparts.
"The preparations are almost complete," Dr. Flappe exclaims beside him.
"Hmmm!" Shen just approvingly hums. "So, is that the thing that I told you to make? Did the idea work?" Shen points at something in his brother's body.
There is a circular glowing device in the middle of Tao Pai Pai's chest, looking a lot like Iron Man's arc reactor.
Well, it also has a similar function. "Yes! As you had said. It's a mini nuclear reactor."
It is not the same as the infinite energy generator that Dr. Gero makes; no, this one has a fixed capacity to generate energy, and it naturally takes time to regenerate the used-up energy, working more so as a large boost to already existing energy reserves.
Becoming a cyborg is not a particularly unique transformation for the would-be assassin, as in the future, after his defeat against Goku, even without Shen's intervention, he would have cybernetically enhanced himself.
Dr. Flappe has also improved upon the old pirate robot that was protecting the cave before Shen's arrival. His expertise in this field has massively increased after studying the Pirate Robot-2 and an earlier version-1, which they had found by pure chance.
For now, a new version of the pirate robot is ready for service. Moving on in the future, they can be further improved upon.
These skull robots maintain the original appearance but have a more sleek design. They are equipped with superior lasers instead of the original machine gun. Naturally, these robots are capable of flight, and they can also use swords for close combat. They are each fitted with a top-class AI system that can communicate, and they can even do regular work like a factory robot.
If Shen had to estimate, he would say its power level is around 500, almost half of that of a Saibaman used by the Saiyans.
Shen has directly decided to utilize them to maintain and protect the hideout.
