Capítulo 46: Kami's Scheme

"Although I am Earth's Kami and indeed have the ability to watch over the entire planet, based on the information you provided, the range is far too vast. Even if I could find him, it would not be something I could accomplish in a short amount of time."

Kami gave a tactful response.

Upon hearing this, Gine immediately became anxious.

It was clear that even though she had arrived on Earth, she still had no idea how to find her son.

She felt like a failure, but there was truly nothing she could do.

If Kakarot had the ability to take care of himself, if he had some strength, they could sweep across the Earth forcefully, and they could definitely find him in a short time.

In fact, once Kakarot learned of their presence, he might even come to find them on his own.

Unfortunately, he was still young. Even though he was already over a year old, he was only a bit stronger than an ordinary Earthling child.

The atmosphere grew heavy. Kami, seemingly afraid of something unpredictable happening, spoke again, "Why not give me some time? It would be best if I can find him. If that proves impossible, I can also assist you in other ways to search for him."

Such a sincere offer would be accepted by anyone who heard it.

"Time is not really an issue, since we plan to stay on Earth for a while. However, the sooner we can find him, the better," Talot said, somewhat reluctantly.

If he didn't say anything at this point, Gine's emotions would certainly influence everyone.

There was even a high possibility that her suppressed feelings would completely explode.

Since Planet Vegeta's destruction up until today, Gine had been under immense pressure. If not for the hope that sustained her, she might have already broken down.

It could only be said that some things require time to heal, and right now, the time just hasn't been long enough.

With his words, Kami breathed a sigh of relief, and Gine looked toward Talot, accepting the situation for now.

Although she didn't understand why Talot trusted this Namekian Kami, she knew that Talot was a careful person who wouldn't trust someone for no reason.

If she knew Talot's true thoughts at this moment, she might have been devastated.

That's why Talot was being extra cautious with everything he did.

"Since you plan to stay on Earth for a while and I'll be helping you search for the child named Kakarot, perhaps during this time, you could reside at the Lookout. It would make it easier for us to communicate at any time," Kami suddenly suggested.

He invited Talot's group to stay at the Lookout.

Gine and Salari didn't think too much about it, naturally seeing the offer as convenient.

Only Talot understood that Kami was trying to keep them under control.

Letting them stay at the Lookout was undoubtedly a way to prevent them from causing trouble on Earth, while also using the opportunity to learn more about them and gather information.

Of course, even if there was some ulterior motive, Talot didn't mind.

As someone who had crossed over to this world, he understood Kami's nature well.

This old man wouldn't trust them easily just based on a few words. Ultimately, Kami was simply trying to minimize any unforeseen incidents.

"For now, we can stay here. After all, we don't have a clear objective, and we don't know much about Earth."

"Can you prepare some rooms for us, and let us freshen up? Six months of space travel—it's been rough," Talot remarked casually.

Hearing this, Kami smiled warmly and turned to look at Popo. "That's a small matter. Mr. Popo, go ahead and prepare everything. Consider it our way of welcoming them."

"As you wish, Kami-sama. I'll go prepare immediately," Popo said respectfully before quickly leaving.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and more than an hour had gone by.

After freshening up, Talot, Gine, and Salari finally felt truly refreshed.

Now, they were tasting the food made by Popo, and it was so delicious they could hardly believe it.

Gine and Salari were especially delighted, as they had never tasted anything this good before.

On the other hand, Talot was on the verge of tears—this was real food, food for humans.

Unconsciously, he began to reminisce about the various delicious dishes from his previous life. It had been six years since he came to this world, and only now did he taste something similar again.

After eating their fill, Talot and the others lay sprawled out for a long time before they finally got up for some light exercise.

Light exercise?!

Yes!

But what was considered light exercise for Talot and the others was terrifying from Kami and Popo's perspective.

They moved so fast that Kami and Popo couldn't even see them. Especially the kicks and punches—if they were the ones taking the hits, a single blow would probably be enough to kill them.

The existence of the Saiyans had completely shattered Kami and Popo's worldview.

Terrifying!

That was their shared thought.

As time passed and the exercise ended, Talot and the others finally relaxed.

The warm energy flowing through their bodies could only be described with two words: pure comfort!

"Talot, you still haven't said why you decided to trust this Namekian Kami," Gine asked, sitting on the cool platform steps, gazing at Kami and Popo as they walked around the edge of the Lookout.

Talot wasn't surprised by the question; he had expected Gine to ask sooner or later.

He replied, "I wouldn't exactly say I trust him. I just want to see what this Namekian—Earth's so-called Kami—is capable of. If he can help us find Kakarot, that's great. If not, it doesn't cost us anything.

"Besides, from what I've seen so far, we're not enemies. They don't seem like the type to lie or deceive us."

His simple and direct explanation was enough to be accepted.

Gine nodded after hearing it. "I hope he can find him. Although, given the strength of Earthlings, Kakarot should be fine."

In the short span of two hours, Talot had already managed to ease half of Gine's worries.

He had convinced her that Earthlings had a very low power level. Even if Kakarot's power level was only 2, that would make him stronger than most adult Earthlings.

"Brother Talot, Aunt Gine, do you think that by just walking around the edge, they can actually find Kakarot?" Salari asked curiously.

She had actually been wanting to ask this for a while.

"They probably have a way of seeing things that we can't. Since we've decided to give him time, we can't start doubting him now. Otherwise, it would be like doubting ourselves, wouldn't it?" Talot replied with a smile.

Salari stuck out her tongue playfully, while Gine nodded thoughtfully. "I just realized—he didn't ask us to stay here just to help us find Kakarot, did he? He's also afraid we might cause trouble on Earth, isn't that right, Talot?"

Talot glanced at Gine in surprise, impressed at how much smarter she had become. She had seen through Kami's little scheme so quickly.

"I thought the same, but it doesn't matter. If we really want to leave, he wouldn't be able to stop us," Talot said.


Capítulo 47: Three Days Later

Time flew by in the blink of an eye. 

Before they knew it, three days had passed since Talot and his group had arrived on Earth and reached the Lookout.

During these three days, under Kami's arrangement, they temporarily stayed at the Lookout.

Due to their agreement with Kami, they remained on the Lookout the entire time without going to the mortal world.

What seemed like a simple task was actually quite difficult to accomplish.

As Kami explained, every day numerous meteors fall to Earth. Many of them burn up due to atmospheric friction, while some still make it to the ground, though their impact is usually not very significant.

Now, he was tasked with tracking the records of meteor impacts over the past few months, which was extremely time-consuming and exhausting.

Additionally, he had to ensure that the target wasn't discovered and taken away by someone below.

In short, it all came down to luck—if he was lucky, he could find him in a short time; if not, he might be impossible to locate.

In a word, it was like searching for a needle in a haystack.

...

At the center of the square in front of the Lookout.

Talot and Salari were sparring.

In terms of strength, Salari was certainly no match for Talot, but the improvement brought about by these training sessions was significant, so Talot never get tired of it.

If it wasn't sparring with Salari, it was with Gine, and sometimes they even fought two-on-one quite often.

To be honest, it was only because there weren't better opponents; otherwise, he wouldn't just focus on Gine and Salari.

For Salari and Gine, fighting with Talot helped them improve even more.

Salari's power level had finally broken through the 1,000 barrier during these three days, reaching 1,020.

After being suppressed for so long, these three days of release would lead to even more growth for Salari in the days to come.

As for Gine, her power level was similar to Talot's, only fluctuating by about 10 or 20 points.

After their sparring session, Salari collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.

Only Salari would dare to act so bold and unrestrained.

If it had been any other girl, she might have been a bit more reserved and not so reckless.

However, Salari's straightforward and honest nature made her all the more adorable to Talot. There was no barrier between them when they interacted, and they were not restricted by a male-female relationship.

"Brother Talot, you're getting stronger and stronger... Ha... ha...!" 

Even though she was exhausted, Salari couldn't stop praising Talot.

They were both only six years old. If she were a little older, Salari would probably be saying bold things like, "As expected of the man I like."

"You're getting stronger too. Not only has your control over your strength improved, but your understanding of Ki has also improved over these three days," Talot said with a smile.

Hearing Talot's praise, Salari's already rosy cheeks blushed even more, and a sense of pride swelled up within her.

Talot was unaware that her admiration for him was growing deeper and deeper, to the point where any compliment from him would send her mind wandering.

After a long rest, Salari finally recovered and sat next to Talot on the steps to take a break.

Their gaze fell on Gine, who stood at the edge of the Lookout.

Over the past three days, even though Gine had calmed down and waited, her worry for Kakarot had only grown deeper.

This worry was different from the concern she had felt for Bardock and Raditz before, because now, they were all on the same planet, yet as a mother, she was powerless.

"Brother Talot, isn't Aunt Gine going to get sick if she keeps this up? It's been three days, and that Namekian Kami isn't just messing with us, right? We still don't have any news about Kakarot. What should we do next?" Salari, concerned for Gine, asked Talot.

Upon hearing this, Talot's heart was also moved.

After so many years of being together, seeing Gine like this now made Talot feel a strong urge to tell her the whereabouts of Kakarot. 

Although Talot was confident that if he took the initiative to guide Kakarot, he could at least prevent him from becoming an evil Saiyan.

But he couldn't get past that mental hurdle. After all, just because someone guides Kakarot doesn't mean he'll turn into the Goku from the original work.

What would happen if the original work's Goku was no longer around?

[I'm sorry, Aunt Gine. Just a little longer.]

Talot had already made up his mind. At the very least, he had to ensure that the Goku from the original work was born. After that, even if things changed, it wouldn't matter.

"Since there's still no news about Kakarot, why don't we take a walk around Earth? We might find some clues," Talot suggested to Salari.

The idea of going down to Earth lit a special sparkle in Salari's eyes.

"That's great, Brother Talot, you have no idea, I was about to go crazy here. Although this place is nice, there's nothing to do here. After a while, anyone would go mad!" Salari was the type of person who couldn't sit still.

Seeing her like that, Talot smiled. The two of them stood up and walked over to Gine.

After some discussion, Gine was convinced as well.

Rather than waiting around, it was better for them to go down and search. At least it would give them some hope.

Kami didn't stop them either. After all, if they were only going down to the mortal world to look for their family member, stopping them might backfire.

Still, Kami was generally reassured about Talot and his group.

After spending three days with them, he had concluded that although Talot and his companions were incredibly strong, they didn't seem to be inherently evil, and a basic level of trust had been established.

Of course, trust is one thing.

As the saying goes, "One should not harbor ill intentions toward others, but one must always be cautious of others."

Kami still left some room for caution.

For instance, he had already found what they were looking for, but he hadn't said anything.

He wanted to observe Talot and his group a bit more carefully. A short time wasn't enough to truly reveal someone's nature. Letting them go down to the mortal world was the perfect way to further evaluate them.

"Kami-sama, now that they've gone down to the mortal world, do you want me to follow them?" Mr. Popo asked.

Clearly, even though he understood Kami's plan, Popo was still concerned and wanted to help relieve some of Kami's worries.

"No, let them move freely for now. We'll observe the situation first. You've worked hard these past few days—go rest," Kami replied.

"Alright, Kami-sama," Popo nodded but didn't leave.

Kami didn't mind and focused his attention on watching the mortal world.

At that moment, he wasn't just watching Talot and his companions leave—he was also keeping an eye on a remote mountain area in the mortal world.

According to Earth's geographic names, the place was Mount Paozu!

He had found the space pod and also Kakarot.

Kami was keeping the information to himself because he couldn't afford to take the risk, nor could he gamble on the outcome.

Even though Talot's group consisted of just one woman and two children, the power they wielded was immense.

If they found that child Kakarot and suddenly decided to attack Earth, the planet would fall into their hands in an instant.
