Black Carrot

"Wow!"

Little Goku opened his mouth and coughed up a mouthful of blood. Among the blood were a few senzu beans.

Dales' knee strike had sent Little Goku flying like a cannonball, shattering countless thick branches of the Spirit Tree.

Fortunately, he had a senzu bean tucked inside his mouth. Swallowing it immediately, he was instantly healed.

Just that one attack had almost killed him.

Taking advantage of the brief moment before Dales followed up with another strike, Little Goku quickly took out the small jar, stuffed a few more senzu beans under his tongue, and clenched them tightly.

After enduring the immense strain of 20x Kaio-ken and suffering a near-fatal blow, the full-body healing effect of the senzu bean once again triggered the Saiyan's innate ability to grow stronger after recovering from critical injuries.

"Kid, you sure can take a beating."

Dales was astonished.

Despite the massive gap in their power levels, he had failed to finish Little Goku in one hit.

Once again, the two resumed their battle.

Jiang Wei stood off to the side, watching in silence as Dales maintained the upper hand while Little Goku struggled to keep up.

He wasn't worried.

As long as Little Goku had senzu beans and wasn't killed instantly, there was no real danger.

Even if he did die, it wouldn't be an issue—Jiang Wei had the power of the Dragon Balls to bring him back.

Under the relentless flurry of Dales' attacks, Little Goku could only block, enduring over a dozen consecutive heavy blows before being sent crashing down again.

Swallowing another senzu bean.

Getting back up again!

"Is this brat immortal or what?"

Dales was beginning to feel uneasy.

Every time Little Goku was knocked down, he stood back up stronger than before.

As the fight raged on, the massive crown of the Spirit Tree was in complete disarray.

Meanwhile, Earth's environment continued to deteriorate.

The Spirit Tree's roots spread unchecked, devouring nature and turning vast lands into barren deserts.

Jiang Wei, however, remained unfazed.

Even if Earth were to be completely drained, he could just restore it with the Dragon Balls.

"You brat! If I blow your head off, let's see if you can still get up—"

Dales suddenly froze mid-sentence, his expression shifting into one of sheer terror.

At the same time…

His once jet-black skin was now glowing with an eerie pink hue.

"Just as I thought—the Spirit Tree fruit on Earth has been tainted by Majin Buu's energy. Eating it is a death sentence!"

Jiang Wei shook his head as he watched Dales struggle in horror.

At this point, neither fighter could defeat the other.

Dales couldn't break through Little Goku's endurance.

Little Goku couldn't finish Dales off.

But now, the extended battle had triggered an unexpected side effect from the fruit contaminated by Majin Buu's energy.

"I've gotten everything I wanted from this fight. Dales unknowingly trained Goku, and I even got my hands on the Spirit Tree seeds. A solid haul."

Jiang Wei smirked.

Then—

With a single thought, Jiang Wei transformed into a humanoid dragon.

He called out to Little Goku, who had been preparing to take advantage of Dales' weakened state.

"Leave it to me."

Appearing before Dales in an instant, Jiang Wei spoke:

"This dragon can help you."

"H-Help...?"

"It's simple."

If he could restore Earth, fixing Dales was nothing.

A moment later, the pink glow faded from Dales' body, returning his skin to its usual deep black.

"Ding! Gained Energy Halo!"

"Ding! Gained Finger Beam!"

"Ding! Gained Large Energy Wave!"

"Ding! Gained Lesser Saiyan Warrior Bloodline (Inactive)!"

Dales was just about to sigh in relief—when Jiang Wei, his palm already placed lightly on Dales' chest, activated the Rabbit's Curse technique.

With a puff of white smoke—

Dales vanished.

All that remained…

Was a black carrot, dropping from midair.

Jiang Wei caught the carrot with one hand and smirked.

He turned to Little Goku.

"See this carrot? If you eat it, you'll become stronger."

Little Goku thought about it for a moment before shaking his head.

"I don't like carrots, especially black ones."

"Haha, just kidding."

Jiang Wei chuckled, ruffling Little Goku's hair before storing the black carrot away.

Even if Little Goku had agreed, Jiang Wei wouldn't have allowed it. That would be way too cruel.

Next, Jiang Wei formed a Spirit Bomb, just as in the original events, draining the Spirit Tree and restoring Earth's vitality.

"There's still some time left… Should I take Goku to Namek and fish for some easy gains?"

He thought about it.

Then shook his head.

"I've already gained plenty. No need to get greedy."

"Tongzi, take us back."

Returning to their world, Jiang Wei checked his combat power with his scouter.

"Didi!"

Jiang Wei – Base Combat Power: 370,000

Humanoid Dragon Form: 3.7 million

20x Kaio-ken: 74 million

Son Goku – Base Combat Power: 11,000

Dales had finally fulfilled his purpose. Thanks to their battle, Little Goku's combat power had skyrocketed past 10,000.

Jiang Wei realized that standard training methods, like those used by Yamcha and Krillin, wouldn't be effective anymore.

Little Goku needed something… more.

Teaming up with Bulma, he built a 100x Gravity Training Room.

He also decided—

It was time to unlock Little Goku's latent potential.

Back in Mount Paozu.

Jiang Wei instructed Little Goku to gaze at the full moon, transforming into a Great Ape.

Then, he guided him to harness the transformation's raw power.

A violent aura exploded from the Great Ape, whipping up fierce winds that made the surrounding trees bend as if they would snap at any moment!

Jiang Wei marveled at the sight.

"The potential of a Great Ape Saiyan runs deeper than an abyss."

His anticipation grew.

The stronger Little Goku became—

The stronger he would become too.

Afterward, Jiang Wei took Little Goku to Kami's Lookout.

His plan?

To have Little Goku train inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for two whole years.

Currently, the chamber could only be used for a total of two years per person, so that was the limit.

Jiang Wei made a mental note—

Upgrading the Time Chamber needed to be added to his to-do list.

After sending Little Goku inside, he turned his attention to the Spirit Tree seeds he had taken from Dales.

To be honest… they weren't all that useful.

Dales had destroyed countless planets, consumed countless fruits—yet his combat power barely reached 30,000.

Not exactly impressive.

More importantly, planting the Spirit Tree recklessly would destroy the environment.

"Maybe… I can get an expert in biological research to study these seeds instead."

Jiang Wei's eyes lit up.

He had just the right person in mind.
