The Stranded

Little girl Podiya looked at Ayaka worriedly. "Why can you understand my language?" Ayaka asked in confusion.

"It's a secret technique of Planet Yardrat, where you can immediately copy the language system of the other person just by hearing what they say," Podiya explained.

"It was so amazing," Ayaka's eyes showed a longing look. She must learn this kind of secret technique. "Uncle, can you teach me?" she asked eagerly.

"Of course. This is not a big secret technique. However, the secret techniques of Planet Yardrat are complicated to learn, and with this environment..." Podiya looked at the surrounding environment, then shrugged and told Ayaka to stay aside first. He walked into the spaceship and rummaged through it to see if there was anything useful. Alas, unfortunately, everything was broken.

Ayaka watched Podiya for a long time but did not find a good opportunity to ask her question. "Uncle, what are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for something that can repair the spaceship, but unfortunately, none of them can be used," Podiya replied helplessly. Without tools, repairing the spaceship was impossible. The pungent smell that filled the air made him sick.

"What's your name, little girl? How come you're alone on this planet?" he asked.

"My name is Ayaka. I've always lived alone," she replied.

Podiya had dealt with other Saiyan's before and knew that they often sent their children to other planets for training. It was natural to think that Ayaka was also one of those children who were sent out.

"Well, Saiyan's are too aggressive to be sent out at a young age. What about the spaceship that brought you here?" he thought of the spaceship that carried Ayaka.

"It was destroyed," Ayaka told the truth, her words disappointing Podiya. If the spaceship was destroyed, then it was impossible to leave. This planet was deserted, with no food on it except for cactus-like plants, making it impossible for people to survive on it.

Ayaka saw Podiya sitting restlessly on the ground and felt amused. She then secretly took out the scouter to detect him. Beep beep, the scouter sounded twice softly.

1,785. Podiya's power level was not low. It was more than 900 power levels higher than hers. No wonder he dared to hang around the universe alone.

"Uncle Podiya," Ayaka negotiated and said to Podiya, "if I take you off this planet, can you teach me that secret technique of learning languages?"

"Sure, I'll teach you anything if I can get out of here," Podiya casually responded. He then reacted, "Wait, what did you say? You said you could get me out of here?"

"Of course."

"What about the spaceship? I thought it was destroyed. Was there another ship?"

"No." Podiya was speechless. Children were children—how could they leave the planet without a spaceship? Therefore, he treated Ayaka as a little girl who spoke without thinking.
