Chapter 68 Conversation with Dr. Gro!
Chapter 68 Conversation with Dr. Gro!
After talking with Dora, Goten arrived at the wasteland, put on the Magic Ring, opened a dimensional portal, and immediately entered. Krillin, who arrived later, was completely dumbfounded when Goten suddenly disappeared...
Goten followed the passage to the place where Android 19 and Android 20 (Dr. Gero) had just appeared. Seeing the two about to take action, Goten decisively jumped in front of them. Seeing a young boy suddenly appear out of nowhere, Android 19 warily protected Dr. Gero behind him.
Dr. Gero questioned Goten, "You look exactly like Goku...you're his son...no, the records show that Goku's son should be Gohan, so who are you?"
After bowing politely, Son Goten introduced himself: "My name is Son Goten. I have come to find the brilliant Dr. Gero. I have heard that he created many excellent androids by himself, so I would like to ask him some questions."
Dr. Gero smiled upon hearing Goten's praise, which put Android 19 at ease. He then said to Goten, "Of course, I am the number one super brain on Earth. Kid, I'll let you off the hook this time since you have good judgment. Get out of here now."
Ignoring Dr. Gero's advice, Goten continued, "But speaking of which, why are you risking your life for Red Forge, even going so far as to modify yourself? Is it really necessary to go to such lengths?"
Dr. Groh grinned crookedly upon hearing this: "What do you know, kid? On the whole planet Earth, the only people who appreciate me are the Red Ribbon, who are willing to give me ample funding. So, to repay them, this is what I should do. Alright, get out of here."
Goten continued, "In other words, if you have enough funding, you can choose to create something else instead of dangerous androids, is that right?"
Dr. Gero replied, "Of course, but that's impossible. My primary goal right now is to defeat and destroy Goku's Red Ribbon Army, and then use my Android army to realize my brilliant plan!"
Upon hearing this, Goten immediately began to mock: "Your genius plan isn't to use your disobedient androids to unify the world, and then want to enjoy the world alone with your androids, is it?"
Dr. Groh was startled by this and stammered, "You...how do you know? Who are you? Tell me your name!"
Upon hearing this, Goten introduced himself: "I came here because I want to learn, and that's why I want to guide someone who has misused their knowledge back to the right path. Dr. Gero, give up your obsession with defeating Goku, and enjoy life. Why not live a peaceful life with the androids you created..."
Dr. Groh roared, "Shut up! How do you know if you haven't tried!"
Dr. Gero immediately ordered Android 19 to attack. Seeing this, Goten had no choice but to deal with the fat guy in front of him first, otherwise Dr. Gero wouldn't turn back. So Goten instantly unleashed his Super Saiyan power and kicked Android 19 away, far away from the city...
The two arrived at the field, with Dr. Gero landing close behind. The Z Fighters, having noticed the commotion, also arrived shortly after. Seeing Goten already engaged in a fierce battle with Android 19, Goku asked in confusion, "Huh? Who's that kid? He's already fighting the Androids, and a Super Saiyan at that..."
Upon spotting Goku, Dr. Gero immediately ordered Android 19: "Hey! Android 19! Forget about that kid for now, deal with Goku first, quick!"
Upon receiving the order, Android 19 immediately changed targets and charged towards Goku to engage him in battle. However, strangely, Goku, who had transformed into a Super Saiyan, quickly became exhausted during the fight with Android 19. Within two rounds, Android 19 grabbed him, absorbed his energy, and transformed him back into his normal form...
The Z Fighters were collectively stunned by what they saw, until Gohan remembered and said, "Dad must have had a heart attack, that's why..."
Upon hearing this, Piccolo said, "Impossible, didn't that guy receive the antidote from that guy from the future?"
Gohan explained, "But Dad never felt there was anything wrong with his heart, so he never took any medication..."
Seeing that Goku was about to be defeated, Goten quickly stepped forward and kicked Android 19 away, then said to Gohan, "Don't just stand there! Hurry up and take Mr. Goku away, I'm enough here!"
Upon hearing this, Gohan immediately went to Goku's side and took him away, while Goten continued his battle with Android 19. The shockwaves from their intense clash caused Piccolo and the others present to exclaim, "We never expected there to be a Super Saiyan other than Goku and that guy from Future Past, and one who's so powerful..."
The battle between Goten and Android 19 quickly became a one-sided affair, overwhelming the other Z Fighters. Seeing this, Dr. Gero ordered Android 19 to carry out his command: "What are you doing? Grab that kid and drain his power!"
Upon receiving the order, Android 19 immediately began to carry it out. However, during his charge, he was kicked by another adult male with blond hair and sent flying. No one, including Goten, expected Vegeta to suddenly appear at this moment.
Vegeta looked at the fat man in front of him, completely ignoring Goten who was still fighting him, and coldly said, "Get out of the way. I'll take care of the guy who made Kakarot look so pathetic." After saying that, he immediately transformed into a Super Saiyan, rushed to Android 19, grabbed the man's hands, stepped on Android 19's body, and forcefully tore off the man's arms.
Android 19, having lost both hands, immediately began to flee in a sorry state. Vegeta, seeing this, launched a "Big Bang Attack" wave that carried him away. Just then, Future Trunks arrived and was stunned to see Goten and Dr. Gero standing there dumbfounded.
Seeing this, Krillin, still unaware of the situation, boasted, "Trunks, the androids you're talking about aren't all that great. Vegeta already took one down..."
Trunks asked, "Who are they? And who is that kid who looks exactly like Uncle Goku?"
Krillin was also stunned upon hearing this, and asked in confusion, "Hey, didn't that child come from the future with you?"
Klin's question was instantly dismissed by Trunks, leaving everyone completely dumbfounded...
At that moment, Dr. Gero immediately turned tail and ran away. Goten noticed and tried to chase after him, but Vegeta stopped him and demanded, "Who are you? I don't remember any Saiyans other than me, Kakarot, and Gohan surviving. Give me a straight answer..."
Seeing this, Goten had no choice but to make an excuse: "I'm from another dimension, there's no time to say more. If we don't hurry, Dr. Gero is going to release Androids 17 and 18, okay? (He turns to look at Trunks) Right, future Trunks!"
