After a moment of excitement, Jiang Chen turned to bid farewell to the East Kaiōshin. He took everyone back to Earth. As soon as they landed on Earth, everyone eagerly set to work on their training. Son Goku immediately headed for the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Meanwhile, Jiang Chen made his way to the Time Realm. Compared to other places, the Time Realm was the perfect environment for his kind of training. However, just as he arrived, Jiang Chen was caught off guard. "Chronoa?" He blinked in surprise, looking at Chronoa, who seemed equally startled. His gaze involuntarily moved over her slightly disheveled appearance. "I ran into a jerk." Chronoa huffed, her cheeks flushed with frustration. "He's like a rat from the underworld!" It was clear she had faced some sort of setback. "By the way, Aspara, I'm leaving something with you!" She suddenly remembered something and tossed a book in his direction. "What's this?" Jiang Chen caught the book, feeling an aura of time emanating from it. "The Book of Time," Chronoa said quickly. "I need Time's help to find some more Time and Space Patrollers. There aren't enough right now." "I have other matters to attend to, so I must go!" Without another word, Chronoa vanished, her figure fading out of sight as quickly as she had appeared. Jiang Chen stood frozen, his mind struggling to process what had just happened. He had just watched Chronoa vanish so suddenly, and now he was left holding the Book of Time, unable to fully comprehend the situation. Wow, this is the Book of Time. Its value surpassed even the Kaiōshin's Time and Space ring and it's almost as significant as being the representative of the Time Kaiōshin. Chronoa had handed it to him without a second thought. And on top of that, he had just heard her mention that he needed to recruit more Time and Space Patrollers. "Chronoa, is this really the right time for this?" Jiang Chen asked, snapping back to reality. A moment later, Chronoa's voice echoed from the Time and Space realm, calm and pleasant. "No need to worry about that for now. Focus on your training. Start once you reach the twentieth level." Jiang Chen couldn't help but twitch a little. He shook his head, his gaze returning to the Book of Time. After a brief pause, he reached out and touched the book. As soon as his fingers brushed its surface, the Book of Time glowed faintly, gradually merging into his forehead. An imprint of the book appeared in his mind. With the imprint came an immediate awareness: Jiang Chen could now temporarily use the Book of Time. Although he wasn't yet a Time Kaiōshin, the abilities he had were still astounding. For now, he could traverse Time and Space, and even manipulate some of the rules of Time. It was still terrifying, though. In this state, Jiang Chen could not only move through Time and Space at will, but he could also reverse the flow of time across the entire universe, just like an Angel. The limit was brief, only three to five seconds, but even that was enough to accomplish so much. Reversing Time across the universe was no small feat. Moreover, with the Book of Time in his possession, his understanding of Time itself would accelerate significantly. But amidst his excitement, a part of him couldn't help but feel a deep concern. Chronoa, the Time Kaiōshin, had obviously been through something serious. She wouldn't have given him the Book of Time if it weren't urgent. However, it was clear that his current strength wasn't enough to handle such a situation. The Time Kaiōshin's level was theoretically equal to that of Zen'ō (King of All). A being of that caliber was facing a crisis that someone like him simply couldn't intervene in. "It seems my strength is still insufficient..." Jiang Chen sighed, frustrated with his limitations. Shaking off the thoughts, he quickly gathered his focus. He needed to improve his strength, and there was no better time than now. There wouldn't be any significant issues for a while. He could dedicate himself entirely to training. ... In the Time Lookout, Jiang Chen began his training. Meanwhile, in the seventh Time and Space... Chronoa appeared, her presence commanding attention. "I've found you!" She declared, her voice cold and resolute, her aura radiating with intense focus. Her face was etched with an unprecedented seriousness. "Hehehe!" A voice rang out, dripping with malicious amusement. "Chronoa, you really are relentless!" Two figures appeared, both battered and worn. Mira's body was bloodied and bruised, while Towa looked disheveled, her clothes torn in several places, revealing large swathes of skin and her impressive physique. Yet despite the state she was in, a smile still lingered on her face. ... The training in the Time Lookout was simple but relentless. Jiang Chen spent countless hours in combat while also immersing himself in the time energy contained within the Time Temple, the Book of Time, and the Time Mark. Time passed quietly. Before he knew it, five years had gone by. During these five years, Jiang Chen was completely absorbed in his training. Apart from the occasional return to Universe 7 to reinforce the time seal and attend Son Goku's wedding three years ago, he spent the majority of his time within the Time Lookout. Throughout his training, his base Battle Power steadily increased. Over the course of five years, it surged from the original 4 Million to nearly 100 Million. This kind of growth was almost terrifying. After all, in the Dragon Ball universe, increasing base Battle Power wasn't something that happened easily. Transforming into a Super Saiyan expanded limits, but it didn't make the base Battle Power increase drastically. In fact, even looking at Dragon Ball, including GT's Son Goku and Vegeta, their base Battle Power had increased very slowly before the GT storyline. The same went for the Saiyans in the main series. The reason Jiang Chen made such rapid progress was partly because of his access to Super Saiyan and Saiyan God powers, which broke his limits, and partly because he was in the Time Realm. Compared to other places, the Time Realm was undoubtedly the best location for training. Had he not spent so much time mastering time energy, his strength would have grown even faster. In these five years, however, the most significant change for Jiang Chen wasn't just the rise in his base Battle Power. It was the fact that he had mastered higher-level Super Saiyan transformations. Specifically, Super Saiyan 2. Being familiar with the plot and the stages of Super Saiyan 2, mastering it was never a challenge for him. By the second year, he had already perfected this transformation. With Super Saiyan 2 under his belt, his strength outside of Saiyan God reached new heights. With his base Battle Power now surpassing 100 Million, transforming into Super Saiyan 2 pushed his power to an astounding 10 Billion. This level of Battle Power was already greater than that of Androids 17 and 18 and even surpassed Android 16. It was likely only slightly below Perfect Cell's full strength. And this was just Super Saiyan 2. When he transformed into a Saiyan God, Jiang Chen could easily deal with all the Androids. Coupled with his mastery of time energy, he felt confident in handling the threat posed by Number 21 from before. The only thing that troubled Jiang Chen was that, in these five years, the Time Kaiōshin Chronoa had not reappeared. But for now, there was nothing he could do except continue improving his own strength. (To Be Continued...)
