บท 88: Going To Grand Kai's Planet

"Aaah!! My red 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air!" King Kai woke up and cried out in pain upon remembering what happened.

"King Kai, it's alright. Don't worry, I'll get you a new one." Kalan consoled. The car looked especially similar to the cars from his past life for some reason.

"Really? You promise?" King Kai felt better upon hearing Kalan's words.

"Yeah." Kalan nodded.

"I'll just have Capsule Corporation make one or maybe just have the system copy a nice car..." Kalan thought.

"Alright, what bring you here? Shouldn't you be staying in the living wor- Ah?! Y-You died?! When did that happen!?" King Kai put his hands behind his back and started talking until he saw the halo above Kalan's head.

"Yup, some sad accidents happened." Kalan had materialized two halos and used telekinesis to have them float about his and King Kai's head. As usual his mischievous mind kicked in, he thought it would be fun to play a small prank.

"But, King Kai..." Kalan continued.

"Yes?" King Kai looked doubtfully at Kalan.

"Look above your head." Kalan said and motioned with his eyes.

"Huh? Ah? Eh? AH!? How come I also have a halo!?!?" King Kai looked up and saw a halo follow his head, no matter how he moved, it continued follow his head. Of course, the actual effect was done by Kalan's telekinesis. He could easily have the halo follow simple movements, but if King Kai were to run around wildly and battle, that would not be possible.

"Kalan! When did I die?! How come I didn't even know!?" King Kai yelled frantically.

"Oh... I'm sorry King Kai... The halo appeared once you fainted... Did you have a heart attack...?" Kalan scratched his head and said with an 'innocent look'.

"Oh dear god..." King Kai fainted.

Moments later

"I've become the joke of all Kais!" King Kai complained while looking at Kalan in annoyance. He would be jeered by all the Kai's for dying from a heart attack!

"Forget about that. King Kai, I heard a lot of strong people stay here in the Other World. Bring me to them! I want to fight!" Kalan hurriedly shook King Kai.

"Wa-wa-wa! Alright! Alright! I got it! Stop, stop shaking me!" King Kai hurriedly replied.

"All the strong martial artist are training on Grand Kai's Planet." King Kai explained.

"Grand Kai?" Kalan remembered the old man with long beard. He had a weird personality. But very little was know about him in the story.

"Grand Kai-sama stands above the heads of us Kais who preside over the North, South, East and West galaxies. He is the most important and powerful man in the Other World. He is also a great fan of martial arts." King Kai explained.

"Those fighters of justice who had been rewarded with their bodies recreated in the Other World all gather there on Grand Kai's Planet and engage in their daily training in hopes of catching Grand Kai-sama's attention. They all hope to be trained by Grand Kai-sama, the strongest man in the Other World." King Kai explained, his tone filled with awe.

"Great! Let's go!" Kalan hurriedly pushed King Kai. He remembered Pikkon as the strongest fighter in the Other World. He had easily defeated Cell in just a few clashes. The Grand Kai was in fact not as strong as Goku and Pikkon in the Other World Tournament.

"What's the hurry. We're all dead. The least of our concerns are time." King Kai sighed and touched his halo. He still couldn't believe he died from a heart attack.

"Alright let me boost you." Kalan wasn't dead and although he had practically unlimited lifespan. He did not want to wait for so long. He was so young, how could he spend as much time as the dead to while away time, he wasn't patient enough. He quickly grabbed King Kai and teleported them to Enma's castle.

"Eh? Welcome King Kai, it's been a long time since we met." King Enma hurriedly greeted King Kai, he was after all King Kai's student and respected him very much.

"Enma, long time no see..." King Kai said in a downcast tone. Him going around was the same as announcing his halo to everyone. It would be too embarrassing for other's to learn that he died from a heart attack.

"Hi Enma, we're in a hurry to Grand Kai's Planet. Talk to you later!" Kalan waved his hand to Enma and pulled King Kai to the airport.

"Eh? When did Kalan and King Kai die?" King Enma looked in wonder. He was in charge of the dead, so he would naturally be the first to know when anyone dies.

"That's weird, why do they have a halo if they aren't dead? Is this King Kai's new joke...?" King Enma browsed his notebook of life and death and did not see a new entry of King Kai or Kalan's death.

King Kai guided Kalan to the right airplane and the two of them took their seats.

"It's the first time I fly on an airplane... Come to think of it, I never had the chance to fly on an airplane in my past life." Kalan thought. He looked around curiously, it looked similar to his past life's planes. Although he had never flown on one, he had seen them on scenes from movies.

The plane flew a long distance, the Other World was very big, Kalan saw many stars and after a long time, he saw a very large planet way beyond his imaginations. He could not tell just how big the planet was. King Kai introduced him the planet, it was Heaven. It took a long time for the plane to fly past the incredibly huge Heaven. Afterwards they flew higher and further until they saw another planet. It could be counted as larger than a usual planet on the living world, but it was much much smaller as compared to Heaven.

"That's Grand Kai's Planet." King Kai introduced. The planet was very green with many trees and grass, there were also much blue color, the seas and oceans seemingly taking up a large amount of the planet.
