"Can you blame me for this? Goku was the one who put the special medicine away; I have no idea where he put it!" In the house on Mount Paozu, Chichi was sweating profusely, rummaging through chests and cupboards looking for the special medicine for heart disease.
To the side, Son Goku's aura was becoming weaker and weaker.
Himawari was still very clever. Seeing her dad's Crossing Moon Bridge open right beside her, she knew something had happened.
She brought her two little sisters along to find Chichi. On the way, they even ran into Krillin, who had been preparing to become a patrol officer but had failed the exam.
After that, the group returned to Mount Paozu together.
Chichi was anxious beyond belief, but the house happened to be a bit messy. The special medicine Future Trunks had given Son Goku back then was just a small medicine bottle, and for a moment, no one knew where it had been placed.
Gohan, Videl, Kale, and Krillin were all helping to look.
Himawari didn't rush to search blindly. Instead, she focused her pupil power into her eyes. After closing them for a few seconds, when she opened them again, they had turned into standard Byakugan.
Like Kaguya Otsutsuki and Otsutsuki Urashiki, her eyes could switch between the Byakugan and the Rinnegan at will—an ability even Ino didn't possess.
With the Byakugan, finding things was much faster.
The special medicine was found and immediately fed to Son Goku. This crisis, caused by the early onset of his heart disease, was considered successfully navigated.
Not long after, Ino returned to pick up her two precious daughters and found that Videl was actually there as well, so she took the children out for ice cream.
Using the Kaio-ken had left her body very exhausted. Seeing that her dad wasn't feeling well, her 'little cotton jacket' didn't mention playing anymore and obediently said goodbye to Videl.
"Goodbye, Big Sister Videl!" x2
"Goodbye, Himawari, Kale! Remember to come find me to play!"
When it was Ino's turn, Videl didn't know how to address her, so she vaguely mumbled, "Goodbye, Uncle."
Videl was quite skilled and intelligent, stating she could take a car back herself. Ino, not feeling entirely at ease, instructed Dende to keep an eye on her. She was simply too tired. After leaving a message for Iruka and the others, she took the two children back to Konoha.
Back home, she fell onto the bed and slept. When she woke up the next day, Ino scratched her head, feeling as if she had forgotten something. What was it exactly?
On the other side, Mr. Satan picked up Videl, bid farewell to the crowd of reporters from the TV station, and returned home. Taking a magnifying glass to study his equipment carefully, he finally discovered an unremarkable, thin needle inside someone's glove. If one didn't look closely, it was impossible to find.
Frost's poison needles came in two types: deadly poison needles and coma needles. Ino had studied them; the effect of the coma needle was better than the deadly one. As long as the enemy fainted, wouldn't they be at her mercy? A coma was enough.
What Ino had hidden in the glove had always been a coma needle.
Mr. Satan modified the glove into a style that suited him. In the days that followed, due to the TV station's reports, some well-known martial artists came to challenge him. Good heavens, he took them down one punch at a time. No martial artist could withstand his second move. The enemies defeated by him fell into a deep sleep one after another, and thus he gained the nickname "Sleeping Mr. Satan."
...
Five days passed.
Son Goku finally woke up.
He listened to Piccolo recount the course of the battle that followed.
"That's really amazing! I definitely have to train hard and surpass Broly!" Son Goku stood up, rubbing his fists and wiping his palms, eager for action.
Vegeta had been forcibly stuck at the Super Saiyan bottleneck for two years, and in reality, Son Goku hadn't made much of a breakthrough in these two years either.
Seeing Broly, he finally realized that after Super Saiyan, one could continue to improve.
At the same time, Ino using the Kaio-ken after transforming was also a major inspiration to him.
Vegeta, however, had a different idea. The base battle power of Gohanks, who appeared at the end, was extremely high. He felt he could continue to work in that direction.
As for that Fusion Technique? That was completely out of the question. He would rather be beaten to death than perform such shameful movements. Besides, who would he fuse with?
Piccolo's vision and hearing far exceeded that of Earthlings and Saiyans. He had also heard the commotion regarding the Fusion Technique. Those movements were indeed shameful; he didn't have the face to do them. Because he had a better choice, he looked toward the Kami's Lookout in the sky.
...
Sixth Universe.
Broly went into a frenzy, destroying several alien spaceships, and then shouted at the sky.
"Kakarot."
"Kakarot!"
"KAKAROT!!"
Broly's violent behavior soon invited the punitive expedition of the "justice" warriors of the Sixth Universe.
Frieza, wearing Frost's identity as a cover, had been constantly stirring up trouble in the universe. Listening to his subordinates' report—what? A Saiyan actually dared to commit evil deeds so openly?
That's fresh! Even your Lord Frieza has to stir up trouble quietly now. How can a Saiyan have such nerve?
Needless to say, the thing he hated most in his life was Saiyans! He immediately rallied his little brothers, grabbed their gear, and set out to kill that Saiyan!
"Ohohoho, Saiyan, count yourself unlucky to have met me!" He sat at the bridge of the spaceship, revealing a signature smug smile.
He had exercised a bit recently and gained quite a harvest. It was a pity that he currently possessed a body that was half-mechanical and half-flesh, limiting his growth. This point was very uncomfortable, but... he was already 10 times stronger than before. Wouldn't wiping out a Saiyan be as easy as grasping something in his hand?
...
"Ah—I'm a little sleepy..." Ino lay on the table and let out a yawn.
She wondered if Broly was having fun in the Sixth Universe.
This was the consequence of her deep deliberation. Sending Broly to other universes meant he would either dominate there and become a formidable enemy for the Seventh Universe in the future, or be used as a whetstone by local experts, repeatedly farmed to improve his strength.
The Sixth Universe was just right. It was originally the Seventh Universe's destined rival, and with experts like Hit present, Broly—without Paragus to give him ideas—would be like a mad dog, biting whoever he saw. It would be a very normal occurrence for him to be gang-beaten again.
She had taken Kale away earlier, and now she had returned a Legendary Super Saiyan to them. Surely no one could say anything about that, right?
With nothing to do, she took out her GodPad to scroll through videos and casually contacted Whis.
"Whis, what is the average Civilization Index of the Seventh Universe now?"
On the other side, Whis was drinking a beverage. He casually picked up his staff, spoke a sentence to the magic orb at the head of the staff, and waited for about two minutes before replying: "Oh my, the results are gratifying. Ohohoho, the Seventh Universe has already surpassed the Sixth Universe and the Ninth Universe, becoming the third-to-last civilized universe."
Ino: "..."
It seemed it hadn't gotten much stronger.
"What is the specific average Civilization Index?"
"3.55."
Ino thought for a moment. Before it was 3.18, and now it was 3.55. It had to be said, the improvement was significant. However, the further one went, the harder it was to improve.
Raising an exam score from 318 to 355 might be easy, but try setting the goal at 700? That would require paying hundreds or thousands of times the effort.
She felt her head swelling just thinking about it.
She had already "transported" several troublemakers away, and the bad guys had mostly been "cleansed" once. How else was the Civilization Index supposed to rise?
