For better or worse, Talot's understanding of the Dragon Ball era's plot came only from fragmented descriptions in the original work, lacking precise details.
Therefore, to know everything, he had to experience this period of history firsthand.
This was why Talot was waiting for Bardock's return.
Understanding the details of Bardock's current mission and the objectives of his next one would allow him to make a judgment.
What was certain was that the God of Destruction and Angel had only just left Planet Vegeta. Even if they went to find Frieza next, the destruction of Planet Vegeta wouldn't happen in the short term.
Moreover, before destroying Planet Vegeta, Frieza had specifically recalled all the Saiyans fighting abroad, which allowed him to wipe out the planet and the race in one fell swoop.
"I'll stop thinking about this for now. The more I think, the more complicated it gets. I should focus on how to leave Planet Vegeta smoothly."
The plot of this world, frankly, wasn't as simple as Talot originally understood.
He had been trying to establish an accurate timeline to seize every advantage, because he was a transmigrator, and that was his greatest asset.
"This is a real headache. If I had a cheat, I wouldn't need to use my brain. As a transmigrator, I'm a disgrace."
Although the Saiyan bloodline was the biggest cheat, there wasn't time to develop it.
Without this constraint, if he were on Earth, there would be more than one way to become stronger. If he could effectively use the protagonist's opportunities provided by the original work, he was sure he could quickly become powerful.
"I definitely can't control Bardock, but it's best to take Aunt Gine with me when I leave Planet Vegeta," he muttered.
One must not be ungrateful!
Talot had been planning this all along.
Otherwise, if it were just him, he would have had one or two opportunities to leave Planet Vegeta alone half a year ago.
In the original story, Gine died because Bardock wasn't decisive enough.
In fact, even if Gine, with her low combat power, had left Planet Vegeta with Kakarot, no one would have suspected anything.
Moreover, there were similar examples in the original work. Paragus even blatantly coerced a companion to steal a spaceship to find his exiled son, Broly.
Of course, there were many complications involved, but it must be said that once you were on an alien planet, as long as you cut off contact, no one would know if you were dead or alive, and no one would really come looking for you.
Besides, you had no absolute value.
Over the years, while cultivating, Talot had also been studying the operation of those spaceships, as well as their various functions and structures.
His goal was to understand them well enough to cut off tracking after he left Planet Vegeta.
...
Time passed little by little.
After considering several methods, Talot continued his ki training as usual.
It must be said that this training brought him a huge improvement.
His combat power must have exceeded the 1000-point mark! He almost lost control of his ki and exposed himself.
He didn't know if it was because the crisis was approaching, or because he sensed the pressure from the God of Destruction and Angel.
In short, it must have been the influence of various factors that led to the unleashing of his potential.
At night, Talot habitually went to Gine's place for dinner, and then chatted with her for a long time.
That night was one of Talot's few sleepless nights.
Although he had been troubled by the impending destruction of the planet, it hadn't happened yet, so even if he thought about it, he wouldn't worry so much that he couldn't sleep.
Besides, he had always had the habit of exercising, and he trained himself every day, so he basically fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
...
The next day, around noon.
Because he had been sleepless all night, Talot didn't fall asleep until dawn.
He didn't wake up until this time.
Slightly tired, he got up and washed his face, and Talot was completely awake.
"Indeed, one shouldn't harbor too many heavy thoughts, or even with great power and mental strength, one will eventually be disturbed."
After a simple stretch in the room, loosening his muscles and bones,
Talot released his ki sense to acclimate to the improvements from yesterday's breakthrough.
In his perception, a massive ki suddenly caught Talot's attention, causing him to pause slightly.
"Bardock's ki? He's back?"
The surprised words escaped his lips.
Although Gine had told him the specific time, waking up and suddenly sensing the ki was still unexpected.
"I'm still not sensitive enough, too slow. Such a massive ki appeared nearby, and I only noticed it now." With a sigh, Talot knew his strength was still too weak.
For a moment, he felt like he was living in pampered comfort.
...
Meanwhile, at Bardock's house.
The returned Bardock was already eating the food Gine had cooked and catching up, learning about the situation at home recently.
Afterward, led by Gine, he entered the room and saw his youngest son, Kakarot.
"Kakarot... This kid is already six months old, and he still hasn't woken up?"
Muttering to himself, Bardock activated his scouter.
'Beep beep beep... Beep beep beep...'
[Power Level: 2]
"It seems he really only has 2, and it hasn't changed since birth." Bardock's words carried a hint of disappointment.
His eldest son, Raditz, was a high-class warrior, even if he barely crossed the passing line, but at least he had a power level of 200.
But this youngest son only has 2, even the lowest-class support-type Saiyan isn't this weak.
Although, as a low-class warrior himself, he knew that power level at birth didn't necessarily mean a Saiyan's future would be bad.
However, Kakarot really didn't show him any promise.
"Bardock, although Kakarot's power level is indeed very low, he's still our son no matter what. You can't hurt him." Gine stood by, afraid that Bardock would do something drastic.
She was a mother, and even if her son's power level was low, it didn't matter to her.
On the contrary, Kakarot's weakness only intensified her desire to protect him.
"What are you thinking? I'm not the kind of cold-blooded person who can kill their own child, Gine," Bardock said, looking at his wife.
At the same time, he sighed inwardly.
With the experience of this mission, his worries were growing heavier.
Kakarot being weak might not necessarily be a bad thing.
At least, he wouldn't be noticed by anyone, and even if he was, they would ignore him because his power level was only 2.
In recent years, the pressure on him had been increasing, and there were many voices within the clan.
As a result, his son Raditz was arranged by King Vegeta to be by the prince's side, seemingly an honor, but in reality, his son was being used as a hostage.
