Chapter 280: *Hidden*
He looked quietly at North Kai while standing in front of his car, and before Xiaya could wake up North Kai, Bubbles jumped up and flop down on North Kai’s face.
“Heyyy!” North Kai screamed, and the sunglasses he was wearing fell to the ground. “Bubbles, you naughty thing!” While cursing, North Kai picked up the sunglasses and put them on, and saw Xiaya who had appeared in front of him.
North Kai straightened up the sunglasses and muttered to himself, “How can a human arrive on Kai’s Planet? Didn’t I tell King Yemma to not to bother me for a few years?”
So, it was North Kai’s instructions. No wonder Piccolo, Vegeta, and others did not come to see him after they died. Perhaps North Kai thought that Goku and others were there in the mortal world, so he had set his mind at ease!
“Human, why did you come to Kai’s Planet? Hmm, you can easily handle the ten times gravity of Kai’s Planet; your skills are not bad,” North Kai said as he pretended to be learned and profound.
Xiaya looked at North Kai speechlessly and frowned as he said, “North Kai, don’t you know that something big happened on Earth in the mortal world?”
North Kai waved his hand with a laugh and said, “What could happen to earth? Aren’t Goku and the others there! Huh? You are from earth?” North Kai carefully seized up Xiaya and thought, hmm… he really looks like a human.
“Goku is dead,” Xiaya said.
“What? Goku is dead?!” North Kai was astonished. He didn’t dare to believe it. Goku is a Golden Flame Warrior, and even Frieza was not his opponent. How could he die?
Xiaya said, “Goku died from illness, and after that, two demons appeared on earth, who were much more frightening than Frieza. Even though Vegeta transformed into a Golden Flame Warrior, he was not their match.”
“Ahhhh, is what you said really true?”
North Kai was shocked by Xiaya’s words. Not waiting for Xiaya’s confirmation, he immediately jumped off from the car, his forehead sweating, and then he hurriedly rushed to the position of Earth; he then used the antennas on his head to investigate the events that transpired on Earth.
“How could this happen! Why were the Androids so powerful?”
After some scouting around, he showed an incredulous expression. Android 17 and 18 were so strong that even Frieza, King Cold, and others were far too inferior to them. This was really frightening! Naturally, through the investigation, he also discovered Xiaya’s origins. He looked at Xiaya and said with astonishment, “You are actually a Saiyan from a different world?!”
Surprised, Xiaya raised his eyebrows. ‘To think that North Kai learned all that transpired on Earth in recent years just by investigating for a while through his antennas. It seems that the Kais, these “lifeforms”, are not ordinary.’
“Yes!”
“Amazing…Even the Androids were not your opponents. Perhaps no one in the entire North Area can defeat you,” North Kai praised. He was extremely glad that someone like Xiaya had appeared at the crucial moment, or else once the Androids left Earth, North Area would have suffered a calamity.
“Kai should know the purpose of my visit, right?” Xiaya asked directly.
North Kai nodded. He didn’t mind Xiaya’s impolite language. The strong have strong’s dignity and rules. A Golden Flame Warrior like Xiaya was already qualified to be on equal footing with him. To some extent, even if Xiaya was rude to him, he couldn’t show hostile attitude.
For Xiaya, North Kai completely lowered his attitude. He nodded and said, “Then, I will give you the coordinates of the new Planet Namek. Uhh… would you like me to contact the Great Elder of the new Planet Namek?”
“That would be best!” Xiaya laughed. With Kai personally coordinating, it would no doubt save him time persuading them, which was naturally for the best.
Therefore, North Kai nodded and searched for the location of the new Planet Namek. After giving the coordinates of the new Planet Namek to Xiaya, North Kai set out to contact the Great Elder.
Having done that, the purpose of Xiaya’s trip was also accomplished. He waved to North Kai and said goodbye, and then, he immediately used Instant Transmission and returned to earth.
Shua!
“Oh? This magical skill… is it Instant Transmission of Planet Yardrat? It’s really convenient!” North Kai sighed. The crisis that might have affected the entire galaxy had been dissolved, making him feel very happy.
Earth.
In a simply constructed lab, Bulma had buried herself in studying the information left by Dr. Tokunoshin Omori. A lot of Dr. Tokunoshin Omori’s data appeared to be incomplete. If she intends to gradually review and emulate it, it would prove to be a cumbersome and boring process.
Fortunately, Bulma had the good qualities of a scientist, and she had enough patience with these boring scientific technologies.
At this time, Xiaya had returned from North Kai’s Planet. He successfully brought back the coordinates of the new Planet Namek, which pleased everyone on the small island. Next, he intended to go to the new Planet Namek to gather the Dragon Balls in order to make the wish. But before that, he remembered that in addition to Android 17 and 18, there was a more dangerous guy in Dr. Gero’s base — Android Cell!
“According to the storyline, Trunks should notify Goku and others about the Androids three years later by traveling via time machine, that is when he turns seventeen years old. Afterward, he returned to the future using the fuel accumulated in the time machine for three years. After that, he again went to Goku’s world and came back after he became strong and killed 17 and 18 of the future world. Then, he again prepared fuel and intended to tell Goku’s side the good news; but when he was starting the time machine, he was killed by Cell who had suddenly popped out.” [TN: This is from Timeline 3 in dbz]
“That is to say, the current Cell is only a larva, and it will wake up after nine years.”
“I should kill Cell’s larvae first, and wait until when Earth is completely free of danger, then use Planet Namek’s Dragon Balls to resurrect everyone.”
Xiaya made the decision and then told his thoughts to Bulma and others.
“What?! There are other Androids in Dr. Gero’s base?” After learning about the situation, Bulma and the others were shocked.
Xiaya explained, “That is Dr. Gero’s computer-manufactured Android. Currently, it should be just a larva. North Kai said that Android is formed from the cells of Saiyan, Namekian, Frost demon, and others. Once it grows up, it will be very dangerous.”
Xiaya simply pushed all the excuses to North Kai. Anyway, North Kai was also not able to confirm the authenticity of the words that he said.
As Xiaya expected, when he told them about Cell, everyone couldn’t help but tense up! Have Saiyan, Namekian, and Frost demon cells?
Each of these species was extremely frightening, and these three were combined into one. Just thinking of this made them feel numb! If they let that Android appear, perhaps Earth would fall into a greater crisis.
“It must be destroyed before it matures.” Both Master Roshi and Bulma’s thoughts were similar. None amongst them were addicted to fighting like the Saiyans. If they could eliminate the threat before it could sprout, they would naturally not hesitate to do so as soon as possible.
“Bulma, come with me to Dr. Gero’s base!” Master Roshi was leaning on a cane, extremely cautious about Cell’s larva.
“Um!” Bulma nodded hard. They absolutely couldn’t lose the peace that they had obtained with great difficulty.
They carefully thought about it for a while and then decided to immediately leave for Dr. Gero’s base.
Dr. Gero’s base was located in the cold Chillin Mountain range in the north.
It was very close to the Arctic pole, and the temperature was extremely low, with pure white snow covering the mountains. From afar, it looked like a white area covered with heavy makeup and dressed in white. A draft of cold wind blew over, blowing away the few lumps of snow from above the green cedar tree.
Whoosh!
Bulma flew her aircraft past the white mountain peaks as whirlwind rose in the wake of the aircraft, shaking the snow covering the mountains.
“Dr. Gero’s base is in front. As many years have passed, the entrance may have collapsed.” Landing the aircraft at the foot of a mountain, several people alighted from the aircraft and walked up the hill. Soon, they found Dr. Gero’s base on a bare mountain and amidst rocks, a hidden research institute.
At this moment, the entrance of the base was blocked by greenish black rocks, and green moss was growing on it.
