Chapter 82 - 67 Earth Dragon Ball Bugs Part 2

A moment later, Popo's flying carpet landed on the Lookout with seven glowing Dragon Balls were displayed on it. Compared to the Namekian Dragon Balls, the Earth Dragon Balls were significantly smaller. Not only in size but in terms of power, the Earth Dragon Balls were also inferior, having a lower limit on wishes and granting only one wish at a time. However, the Earth Dragon Balls had their own unique advantages as they could handle vague concepts. Perhaps due to Kami Piccolo's lack of systematic training in Dragon Ball creation, the Earth Dragon Balls had several loopholes. They could not only revive numerous people at once but also add prefixes to wishes. "Guest, the Dragon Balls have been gathered." Kami Piccolo announced. "Thank you, Kami Sama." Jiang Chen expressed his appreciation and stepped forward. "Come forth, Shenron!" As his voice echoed, the atmosphere shifted. "Boom!" "Rumble!" Thick dark clouds quickly gathered above the Lookout. Simultaneously, the seven Dragon Balls radiated a brilliant golden light. "Boom!" Seven beams of light shot into the sky. In an instant, a massive green dragon, its length unfathomable, emerged in the heavens. Unlike the Namekian dragon, Earth's Shenron resembled the dragons of Chinese mythology. "Whoever has summoned me, state your wish. Any wish can be granted." The enormous Shenron's voice resonated. "So weak!" Jiang Chen sensed it and couldn't help but shake his head. The current Shenron is not yet empowered so he is undeniably weak. At that moment, Jiang Chen could almost effortlessly shatter Shenron if he wished. "Shenron, please revive all members of Bardock's Squad except Bardock on a relatively stable planet." Jiang Chen declared, clearly stating his wish. This was a decision he had already contemplated. The members of Bardock's Squad had shown him kindness, and Jiang Chen couldn't forget them. However, using the Namekian Dragon Balls for their revival would be overly complicated. It might even require seven or eight wishes, so he had resolved to use the Earth Dragon Balls from the start. Although the Earth Dragon Balls hadn't been enhanced yet, reviving a few individuals shouldn't pose a significant challenge. After voicing his wish, Jiang Chen waited. In the sky, Shenron fell silent. Just as Jiang Chen began to feel a bit anxious, Shenron's booming voice echoed once more. "This wish can be granted, but it will consume all the wish energy for the next three years. Do you agree?" The voice resonated, and Shenron's gaze fixed on Jiang Chen. "Agreed!" Jiang Chen's eyebrows shot up in surprise. He had almost doubted its feasibility, having prepared for the possibility of failure. He had added numerous prefixes to the revival. Moreover, it was outside of Earth. Given the current capabilities of Earth's Shenron, it might not have been able to fulfill the wish. He had even prepared a backup plan, but it turned out to be possible. A look of joy spread across his face as Shenron's eyes glowed red. ... In the next moment, on a distant blue planet in the galaxy. Four red lights appeared, and then four figures materialized. Toma, Celipa, Toteppo, and Panbukin appeared, unharmed. "Where is this?" Toma instinctively asked, confusion etched on his face. In his memory, he had been in hell, but now everything around him had changed. "Have we... been revived?" Celipa murmured, shock evident in her voice. Her words quickly made the others realize the truth. This was clearly not hell, and they seemed to have their bodies back. It appeared they had indeed been brought back to life. "This is not good! Quick, destroy the scouter." Suddenly, Toma recalled something important and spoke urgently. He immediately crushed the scouter in his right hand. The others quickly followed suit, each shattering their scouters. "What's happening? How were we revived? Didn't Dodoria kill us?" Toteppo asked, still looking bewildered. Confusion and questions filled the air among them. "Forget that for now; we need to find a way to leave here and inform Planet Vegeta." "I wonder how Bardock is doing." Toma said, rising into the air. The others followed suit, lifting off the ground to survey their surroundings. ... Meanwhile, Jiang Chen remained unaware of all this. On the Lookout, as the red light in Shenron's eyes faded, he heard the dragon's voice. "Your wish has been granted. Until next time!" Shenron's voice echoed, and the dark clouds began to dissipate. In the next moment, Shenron transformed into seven beams of light, scattering across the globe. "Ah!" Jiang Chen sighed in relief. But Kami Piccolo's expression shifted at that moment. He quickly turned his gaze to the distance. "What's wrong? Kami Sama?" Noticing the change in Kami Piccolo's demeanor, Jiang Chen asked, looking puzzled. "Nothing, it's nothing." Kami Piccolo shook his head, though his expression remained serious. At the moment Shenron vanished, he had sensed the evil aura of the Demon King Piccolo, sealed within the rice cooker, surge dramatically. Jiang Chen regarded Kami Piccolo with suspicion. But since Kami Piccolo chose not to elaborate, Jiang Chen decided not to press the issue. "Thank you, Kami Sama. Since the wish has been granted, I won't keep you any longer." Jiang Chen said, bidding farewell to Kami Piccolo. With everything settled, it was time for him to leave. As for the Hyperbolic Time Chamber on the Lookout, Jiang Chen had no intention of entering. For now, his priority was training. Improving his strength wasn't as urgent. Kami Piccolo nodded slightly and Jiang Chen then flew down from the Lookout. As he watched Jiang Chen depart, Kami Piccolo hurried to the other side of the Lookout. "Kami Sama!" Popo's dark face looked at Kami Piccolo with concern. Kami Piccolo glanced at the rice cooker before him, his expression shifting constantly. Finally, he gritted his teeth. "Popo, bury it again, preferably in the deep sea." Kami Piccolo instructed. "Yes, Kami!" Popo quickly complied. Soon, he took the rice cooker and left the Lookout. "I hope they truly have no ulterior motives." Kami Piccolo sighed. After several months of interaction, he had ultimately decided to place some trust in Jiang Chen and his companions. After all, compared to Jiang Chen's group, who had caused no harm, the Demon King Piccolo, if released, would pose a genuine threat to the world. Of course, Jiang Chen remained oblivious to all of this. He flew down from the Lookout, heading towards Mount Paozu. ... Months had passed. He intended to return to Mount Paozu to inform Gine before setting off for Planet Yardrat. Jiang Chen moved swiftly. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at Mount Paozu. Looking down at the scene below, he was momentarily taken aback. A strange expression crossed his face. (In the original story, there was a scene where two wishes were used to fulfill one wish. The author had made it more reasonable, such as the Earth Dragon Ball bugs. It can be understood that neither of them had received systematic Dragon Clan training from Namek, so the Dragon Balls they created had many bugs and significant side effects. For example, the Earth Dragon Balls would generate evil energy. This is a reasonable adaptation.
