[Finally! My my power level has pletely stabilized at 12,000!]

  Ihe huimes Gravity Chamber, the space was bathed with dense red light.

  The gravity dispy showed a staggering 75G!

  Based on the principle of seeking a stable foundation ihing, Talot was making progress step by step. Not only did he achieve his seajor life goal over half a month ago, but he has also made a signifit leap to reach his current level.

  His power level had surpassed 10,000.

  In simpler terms, when watg the anime, reading the manga, or fan fi, it always seemed like just a matter of increasing numbers.

  But iy, the difficulty was imme wasn't just about increasing strength; every aspect of oneself had to break past its limits to truly cross that threshold.

  After the breakthrough, Talot could clearly feel his life level rise—this special feeling is something he had never experienced before.

  At this moment, Talot finally uood the realm Bardock had reached when his power level broke past 10,000.

  It was as if a door had opened, revealing a new world to him, and his subsequent growth will be even more rapid.

  It was amazing to think that after a month and a half of enduring 60 and 70 times gravity, he had only barely gained 2,000 points in power level, finally breaking past 10,000.

  In the following half month, even with just a 5x increase in gravity, it brought about a total increase of 2000 points in power level.

  Having gohrough this, Talot gained a deeper uanding of martial arts in the Dragon Ball world.

  Especially sidering that in the inal woku only trained under a huimes gravity to achieve such a signifit increase, he gained a new perspective.

  Various factors could interfere with and limit the growth of one's power.

  If they trained uhe same ditions, Talot believed he wouldn't lose to anyone.

  However, paring his current situation to the Goku from the inal work would just be asking for a beating.

  At least, even after pleting huimes gravity training, Talot would absolutely not be able to reach a power level of 90,000!

  Fet about 90,000—even reag 50,000 would be a near-impossible feat.

  To him, right now, it was nothing but a fantasy.

  Even if he pleted the huimes gravity training and added weighted clothes for an enhanced version of gravity training, the result would be the same.

  Of course, if given more time, he could do it.

  ...

  Talot sighed with relief as he finished his training and shut down the gravity system. He then began his daily review.

  This review is a routine he follows every day; without it, his training would only increase his brute strength without any real growth in his uanding or mastery of his skills. He also wouldn't be able to fully trol his power.

  This is something he had learned from Son Gohan during their martial arts training discussions.

  Of course, the guidance of Turtle Hermit was also key.

  Turtle Hermit had been instrumental in helping Talot improve his martial arts prowess.

  Because of this, he would frequently visit Turtle Hermit to discuss martial arts.

  This master of martial arts possessed far more knowledge than he had realized.

  It was no surprise that Turtle Hermit would ter stand oage of the Tour of Power.

  In truth, he had been making steady progress all along. However, the power level requirements oh were simply not that high in the early days, and the p's limitations capped his potential.

  After the Z storyline, when the Great Universe Era began, Turtle Hermit tio train i to improve his strength. However, pared to the Z Fighters, he was far too weak to be sidered a major pyer.

  Times had ged. The old geion had faded from the stage of history, and a new geion had taken over.

  It wasn't until the Tour of Power during the Super era that Turtle Hermit's strength was revealed.

  Turtle Hermit and Talot's discussions served two purposes: first, Turtle Hermit used Talot to improve himself; sed, Turtle Hermit truly liked Talot.

  If Talot weren't already so powerful, Turtle Hermit would have defiaken him on as a disciple.

  After all, who wouldn't want a highly talented disciple?

  Who wouldn't want a disciple who has progressed so far on the martial arts path?

  Unfortunately, Talot had no iion of formally being anyone's disciple, only addressing him as Master Roshi.

  ...

  After stabilizing his strength, Talot finally stepped out of the Gravity Chamber.

  The moment he came out, the first thing he saw was Sari sitting on a swing nearby as she waited for him.

  Her legs were long, smooth, and attractive.

  Sari had always kept herself i shape. Even at this age, it was clear she was going to have a super-hot figure iure.

  Add to that her striking face—there wasn't much more that o be said about her looks.

  Though there's a saying that girls ge a lot as they grow, sometimes for the worse, Saiyans' appearance ractically set from birth. Unless something major happehey wouldn't ge mu appearance, whether male or female.

  Seeing Talot finish his training, Sari jumped off the swing with a flip and approached him with a smile.

  "Brother Talot," she greeted, which made Talot nod out of habit.

  It sounded pleasant, as always.

  "I'll take a shower and ge, then we'll head to Mount Paozu to visit Aunt Gine and Kakarot."

  "Mm-hmm, no rush, Brother Talot."

  Walking ahead, Talot and Sari chatted.

  In fact, ever since Giled at Mount Paozu two months ago, they hadn't visited as often as before.

  Talot only visited Gine and Kakarot at Mount Paozu occasionally.

  At least, sihen, it has only happened once or twice a week, totaling no more than a dozen times, and the frequency has gradually decreased over time.

  Talot knew Sari, oher hand, went to see them frequently—almost every day without missing a visit.

  For them, the distance wasn't far; it was just a matter of minutes.

  Talot didn't go as often because he had his reasons. When he did go, it was out of a sense of responsibility and his familial bond with Gine.

  Unknowingly, Talot had already returo his room, taken a shower, and ged into a fresh, casual outfit.

  After saying goodbye to Brief, his wife, and Bulma, Talot and Sari left West City and headed for Mount Paozu.

  Unlike his st visit, this time Talot had something important to tell Gine.

  Though it wasn't something that o happen immediately, it wouldn't be long.

  He nning to leave Earth and head for P Namek!

  The timing depended on when Brief finished building the spaceship and firmed there were no problems.

  As for the reason, he'd use the Dragon Balls as an excuse.

  Earth's Eternal Dragon couldn't grant their wish, but P Namek's Eternal Dragon just might.

  ...

  Mount Paozu.

  Talot and Sari desded from the sky.

  Gine had already heard from Sari that they were ing, so she had prepared a rge table full of food in advance.

  Thanks to Gine, Kakarot was living a wonderful life pletely surrounded by maternal love.

  Even Son Gohan, the old man, was being from Gine's care.

  If he weren't so old, Bardock would probably crawl out of his grave!

  Of course, that's just a joke.

  To Son Gohan, Gine had essentially bee his adopted daughter.

  When Talot saw Gine, he greeted her happily.

  It had been seven ht days since Gi saw Talot, so after looking him over, she teased him.
