While the group was conversing, the battle below had already begun.
Vegeta, being the most reckless Saiyan, had transformed into a Super Saiyan and was initially overwhelming Android 19. However, Android 19 seized the opportunity to absorb a massive amount of energy.
Fortunately, Android 19 's strength was clearly inferior to Vegeta's. Even though Vegeta was somewhat drained from the energy absorption, he still managed to fire an energy blast that obliterated Android 19.
"Damn it! How could this happen? My Android 19! Wait, I still have Android 17 and 18. If I release them, I can definitely take care of them!" In the explosion, Dr. Gero's face was filled with panic, and he quickly began to flee.
"Hmph! They are nothing but a pile of scrap metal!" Vegeta's face turned pale as he flew up, still snorting coldly.
"Let's go! Don't lose them!" Jiang Chen said with a chuckle, then directly chased after Dr. Gero.
Vegeta's expression was somewhat stiff, but he quickly followed. Behind them, Son Goku and Trunks exchanged glances and also decided to follow.
Following Dr. Gero, they twisted and turned until they finally reached a cave.
Just as Dr. Gero was about to release Android 17 and 18, a light chuckle echoed from outside the cave.
"How secretive! If I hadn't followed you, I might not have found it!" Jiang Chen couldn't help but exclaim, his gaze falling on Android 17 and 18 in front of him.
"It's you!" Dr. Gero's pupils widened in panic.
His body instinctively retreated.
"Trunks, it's up to you!" Jiang Chen said.
He only glanced at Android 17 and 18.
Although there was a possibility of change in Android 17 and 18, it was clear that they were still in their initial forms and had not yet followed the plot from the original story. Jiang Chen had no intention of keeping them.
"Okay!" Trunks nodded, his eyes filled with hatred. In the next moment, he charged towards Dr. Gero, Android 17, and Android 18.
"No, you can't do this!" Dr. Gero shouted in panic.
But the next moment.
"Bang!"
A dull sound rang out, and his head flew off instantly. Trunks had drawn his longsword at some point and swiftly beheaded Dr. Gero. Then, with one hand, he quickly completed a hand seal.
"Ha!"
With a light shout, his figure transformed into a Super Saiyan, and a terrifying energy shockwave erupted from his hand.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
The terrifying power instantly engulfed the entire area. It also enveloped Dr. Gero, Android 17, and Android 18. The overwhelming energy annihilated all existence.
Before Android 17 and 18 could even recover, their bodies were completely obliterated.
The entire mountain disappeared in that moment. As the explosion subsided, Trunks stood in a daze, staring at the empty space. That terrifying Android had been so easily resolved by him.
That was the Android that had killed his brother Gohan and had pushed him into countless desperate situations.
And yet, it had been resolved so effortlessly. At that moment, he felt a sense of unreality.
"Trunks, that was too fast! Let them out and let us fight; I haven't seen how powerful Androids really are!" Son Goku's voice was filled with regret.
"As a Saiyan, you are too timid!" Vegeta snorted coldly.
"Goku Ojisan!" Trunks couldn't help but speak up, looking somewhat apologetic.
"No need to apologize! These two have a few screws loose!" Hearing their words and seeing Trunks' expression, Jiang Chen couldn't help but speak up.
He was worried that Trunks would be led astray by these reckless Saiyans.
Throughout the entire Dragon Ball world, how many problems and crises had Son Goku and Vegeta caused through their recklessness?
As the only non-wasteful Saiyan, Jiang Chen didn't want Trunks to be influenced negatively by them.
"Hmph!!" Vegeta snorted coldly, casting a somewhat unfriendly glance at Jiang Chen.
Meanwhile, Son Goku scratched his head with an awkward smile.
"What's wrong with Aspara? These guys must be strong; isn't it good to have a spar?"
He spoke with confusion.
…
The Androids were resolved, and Jiang Chen checked to see if Cell was present. However, after perceiving for a moment and even using the power of time to investigate, he could not find Cell.
It was as if he did not exist at all.
"Doesn't exist?" Jiang Chen murmured softly, then shook his head. For him at this moment, Cell was no longer a problem. Since he couldn't find him, he would treat it as if he didn't exist.
He and Son Goku, along with Trunks, headed towards West City, and Vegeta thought for a moment before following them.
The group arrived at West City.
Bulma was still very warm towards her recently adopted son. She eagerly pulled Trunks over and kept asking him questions, her eyes filled with curiosity. Trunks gradually became more natural, moving from his initial awkwardness and unease.
Although this world was different, Bulma still gave him a warm feeling. Of course, compared to Trunks, Bulma was even more interested in the time machine.
"Bulma, do you have the ability to improve this time machine? At least make it larger!" Jiang Chen's heart stirred, and he looked at Bulma with curiosity.
"I'll give it a try!" Bulma was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Thank you." Jiang Chen smiled and nodded, confident in Bulma's abilities.
After all, she was capable of independently researching time-traveling devices, a domain that even the gods found difficult to involve themselves in.
Bulma quickly left.
While waiting for Bulma to return, Vegeta looked at Jiang Chen.
"Aspara, are you planning to go to the future?" Vegeta asked with a frown.
As he spoke, many gazes turned towards Jiang Chen.
Trunks' eyes lit up.
"Yes, the situation in the future needs to be addressed! Also, I'm curious about that Time and Space!" Jiang Chen nodded slightly, not denying it.
He was indeed filled with curiosity about that Time and Space.
In the Book of Time, it belonged to the first Time and Space, the original Time and Space. Even if he used the Book of Time, he could not cross into that Time and Space, and he was very curious about what it contained.
"Thank you!" Trunks took a deep breath and slightly bowed to Jiang Chen.
"You don't need to thank me!" Jiang Chen smiled and shook his head.
The group stayed with Bulma for a while longer. Vegeta also did not mention leaving.
Until the tenth day.
Bulma finally walked over, looking exhausted.
"I've got it done! But the energy inside is only enough for one trip. If you want to replenish it, I haven't completed the research yet, so it might take some time. You can go to the future and let the me there handle it." Bulma spoke as she handed over a capsule.
"Thank you!" Trunks quickly took it and expressed his gratitude.
"No need to thank me! Go ahead and take care of your business! By the way, Goku, remember to check on the me from that world!" Seemingly recalling something, Bulma looked at Son Goku as she spoke.
"Okay!" Son Goku nodded.
In the open area.
Trunks opened the capsule.
Soon, a relatively larger time machine appeared before everyone.
"Let's go!" Jiang Chen said, stepping into the time machine's cabin first. Behind him, Trunks, Vegeta, and Son Goku followed suit.
"Goodbye, Mom!" Trunks said softly, and the next moment, he activated the time machine with his right hand.
"Whoosh!"
The time machine shot up into the sky.
Then, it instantly disappeared from its original location.
