45 Time Warp 11

When all of us split up into different groups and went our separate ways, I had immediately began searching the world for a familiar ki signature.

It took me longer than I cared to admit, even with the population of the world more than halved his energy was hard to pick out.

Still, eventually I found him and I myself alongside Bulla and Dende headed that way, while Gohan followed another clone of mine to take down the androids...and Bulma decided to go meet her counterpart from this timeline. God that was a meeting I wish I could be there for. But needs must.

It didn't actually take us long to get there at all, even with the fact that the Lookout was currently always on the move right now and not docked above Korin's tower. Probably because Korin is dead now, as is Kami.

"Huh, this is a pretty swanky place." Bulla whistled as we touched down on the lookout.

Looking around, I had to agree. Even in this timeline, it was as pristine as ever. The white tiled flooring immaculate, the trees and grass, fresh and luscious looking and the home for the guardian of the Earth, former residence of Kami looking resplendent as ever.

"Well it is the home of the guardian of Earth." I shrugged and made my towards the building, Bulla and Dende following behind me.

As we approached it, I felt the familiar power of Popo making his way towards us. And as he got to the stairs leading up to the entrance, Popo stepped out of it.

His wide eyes blinked slowly as he took us in, "My...I thought my senses were playing trick on me," he said, "But..you truly are Goku, or at least a version of him."

"Woah, what the hell is that?" Bulla pointed Popo in shock.

"I am Mr. Popo, The attendant for the guardians of the Earth," He smiled lightly at her, "It's nice to meet you all. It has been a very long time since the lookout has had guests." his eyes roved over all of us, lingering on Dende.

"Hey Popo," I waved at him, "Yeah, I'm a version Son Goku from another timeline. This Bulla, the daughter of Bulma and Dende a Namekian from the Planet Namek and a member of the dragon clan like Kami."

"A pleasure," Popo inclined his head lightly, before smiling at me, "I assume you are here about the Dragon Balls?" he mused.

Popo always was incredibly intuitive. He had a whole slew of powerful and mysterious abilities and was always a great help whenever someone needed him no matter the 'Saga'.

"That's right," I nodded, gesturing to Dende, "If you have the original sculpture, Dende should be capable of reviving Shenron."

His eyes lit up, "That's wonderful news!" Popo clasped his hands together, "Can I assume you will be wishing back those who died?"

"That's right," I nodded, "So if Kami is still around in the afterlife and hasn't reincarnated or fused with Piccolo, then he should be back as well." It might invalidate my plan for Cell a bit, but he could always start as Kami's apprentice if things went that way I guess.

"That sounds lovely!" Popo replied excitedly, "The sculpture is in my room, alongside the inert dragon balls, I collected them years ago to study myself with the hope of being able to create a set powerful enough to bring the dead back to life, though no luck I'm afraid. If you'll give me a moment, I will bring them out to you." with that said, he happily and excitedly rushed back into the dwelling of Kami to retrieve them, leaving us alone.

"So, dragon balls huh?" Bulla crossed her arms and truck up conversation, "Mom used to tell me stories about them, but I could never really believe her about them, they sounded like a fairy tail. So they're real huh?"

"Yep," I replied, pointing at myself, "I'm the proof right here. I'm only alive because of them in the first place, and I used three wishes back on Dende's home planet for a bunch of things."

"Yeah, you said as much back in your little tree dimension thing," Bulla grinned at me, "Well, it'll be cool to see this huge ass dragon at least. Though, have you got wishes planned out or what?"

"I've got a few, though they depend on a few things," I said in return before turning my attention to Dende, "Do you think you'll be able to give Shenron the ability to give three wishes and keep the strength the same?"

Dende bit his lip, "Alone...even with the fruit you've given me, I'm not sure," he replied, "But...if you use your connection with Shenron to provide the extra power I'm sure it will be possible."

I grinned, "Perfect."

While there were quite a few wishes I'd like to use. There were two specific ones I wanted to get here and now. But it would be a dick move to use up all the wishes and not bring back everyone who had died here.

Thankfully, it seemed that with the connection I had with Shenron I would be able to circumvent that little issue. Thank you Kami!

Only a few minutes later Popo returned, carrying a small glass display case and seven small stone spheres floating in the air behind him. "Here you are." he said, as he held the display case out and allowing the seven stone spheres to gently lower to the ground.

The stone model of Shenron was displayed proudly through the glass.

"Oh wow, what an interesting shape!" Dende praised as he looked it over and carefully took the glass case from Popo.

"Careful now," Popo giggled, "I helped shape it now."

"I will be," Dende smiled at him before turning around and placing it gently on the ground in front of him, "Should I just start right away?" he asked me.

"If it's not too much of a bother little green." I smiled at him.

"Then I'll get it done now!" Dende smiled back before turning towards the sculpture of Shenron and raising his hands, his eyes beginning to narrow in concentration, golden light beginning to form an outline around his hands.

"Huh, that definitely isn't ki," Bulla leaned forward and eyed him in interest. "I can't sense it at all."

"Akula kapanara poon Shenron," Dende began chanting, the golden light from his hands gliding down to settle around the stone model of Shenron, suffusing it with the same golden glow, "Shallala, Porpoongo shaneimie tala!"

A sound like whistling began to emanate from Dende's form, the golden light spreading to his entire body. Then, strings of golden energy sparked from his body in a whirlwind of magic power and swarmed around the statue of Shenron.

The sky began to darken above and the statue began to glow brighter and brighter until it was like a small golden sun was forming into existence in front of me.

Then...the golden light exploded!

It shot upwards in a massive winding beam of golden light and swirled above the lookout like a serpent, before splitting into seven different parts and dive bombing back down faster than a bolt of lightning, piercing into the stone seven stone spheres.

The flash of golden light died down and the sky cleared up. And a moment later, seven orange spheres humming and glowing lightly around each other replaced the seven stone spheres.

"It's done..." Dende collapsed on his backside, panting, he turned to me and smiled wearily, "When you summon Shenron...give your energy to him..he should be able to accept it due to your close nature and connection with the Shenron of our time."

Easy enough to follow. "Good work Dende, you're amazing!" I stepped over to him and rubbed his head gently, "Really getting close to being Super Kami Dende!"

He ducked his head shyly and laughed lightly at my praise, "..It's only natural to help you out after all you did for us back home..right?" he mumbled. I think he was trying to do it quietly so I didn't hear, but I did anyway.

"So these are the dragon balls huh?" Bulla walked over and picked one up, the six star ball and began examining it, "They sure are shiny."

"That's them," I nodded. May as well get around to using my wishes now then, but before that, "Hey Popo." I called to the counterpart of my creator.

"Yes..?" he turned to me and asked.

"Do you know what happened to the seed from the Tree of Might after Turles attacked this planet?" I asked him.

"Hmm," Popo hummed, "An odd question. But, if it survived the destruction of the tree then I do believe it may be within the crater that was created when Goku killed Turles with the Spirit Bomb."

"Would you be able to find it?" I asked, suppressing my own excitement. When I first planted the Tree of Might in my personal dimension, it had taken up half of the island within it. But, the island had grown quite a decent bit, and should have more than enough room for another.

And if I can get my hands on another seed...then I can double the amount of fruit I gain per day!

"If it was not destroyed it should not be a problem." Popo replied.

"Can you get it for me while we make the wishes?" I asked, "You can teleport to anywhere on Earth right? It's quite important to find it if it's still in existence."

"I do not see why not," Popo shrugged, "As long as you make the wish to revive Kami and Piccolo I will happily do this for you."

'Yes!' I mentally cheered and resisted the urge to fist bump, "Don't worry about that, I'm planning on bringing them back regardless." I said in return.

"Very well, then I shan't be long," Popo clasped his hands behind his back and nodded, "Kai Kai!" he stated simply, and then completely vanished, his ki disappearing and reappearing very far away to my senses.

"Eh, what the hell!?" Bulla gaped, "He...he just disappeared and I felt his ki appear on the other side of the world!"

Yep. Popo is bullshit like that in some ways. Though..that's weird. I thought he needed is flying carpet to teleport around? 'Guess not.' I shrugged.

"Right then, let's get this show on the road," I cracked my fingers before turning towards the dragon balls, gesturing for Bulla to put the one in her hand down, which she quickly did, "Arise, Shenron!" I commanded after she placed it down amongst its brethren.

The sky darkened immediately and the seven dragon balls erupted once more into flashing bright golden light that conjoined together into a massive beam that flew into the air, swimming through the air like a serpent through the water. Growing, and growing until it encircled the lookout easily three times over.

The light receded a moment later and in its place, was a gargantuan, majestic serpentine green dragon with crimson red eyes, "I am the Eternal Dragon!" Shenron boomed looking down upon us, "Speak now and I shall grant you three wishes!"

"Holy shit!" Bulla screamed in shock, while Dende merely appraised Shenron with a smile on his face, a proud one at that. Yeah, the little guy did some really nice work.

"Shenron!" I shouted up to the amazing beast of a dragon, "I wish for the ability to use my magic power like a magic user born with the ability to!"

"An easy task!" Shenron snorted, his crimson red eyes beginning to glow, "Your wish is granted!"

As soon as he finished speaking, I felt something click within me. Like a key being inserted into a lock and turning, opening it up. I could always feel the magic in me, but it was like there was a massive wall within me blocking me from grasping it. The only way I could access it was a small 'hole' as it were, or at least that was what it felt like to me, a small hole that fed into my connection to Shenron and Porunga and through them into my ki. But now I could feel it freely, grasp it as easily as my ki!

I grasped it and dragged it! My magic is different from others. Kami designed the magic he gave to the original to be used as an enhancement to his ki through the Dragon Fist because he lacked the ability to use magic for mystical purposes. Basically, it was turning that mystical power within him and me into a great big hammer.

And now I could take it even further beyond! I brought my magic and my ki together and powered up to my current maximum. My crimson ki aura burst into existence around me, but that was not all. Dazzling white bolts of bio electricity sparked throughout my aura like sizzling bolts of lightning.

With a press of the button on my scouter, I scanned my current full power in my base form.

96,740,027.

And this...was with my power at only a quarter of its maximum due to me halving it with the Multi Form then halving it again.

That meant, like this my true full power would be; 386,960,109!

Yes, this form of mine, Mystic Saiyan I'll call it is three times that of my normal strength. And as a Mystic Super Saiyan I'll be nearly at twenty billion if my calculations are correct!

It took all of my effort not to burst out into a great, deep full bellied laughter. Bulma already claimed that I sounded like a real villain when I did that.

I let my magic and ki split apart and drew my aura back within me, allowing my power to return to its resting state.

"Damn daddy," Bulla whispered when I powered down, "Didn't take you long to surpass Master Gohan again huh? You're bullshit."

"Language young lady," I scolded her with a grin, "Or do you want me to put you over my knee?"

She grasped her cheeks and mock gasped in fright, "Oh no, I'm sorry daddy, please don't spank my sweet perky ass!" the violet haired girl bent over at the waist sticking her spandex clad rear end out at me and wiggling it.

What a fucking temptress. That was one lovely ass. Not quite a full on pawg ass like Bulma, but it was well on its way there, while retaining that full on toned perkiness that must have come with all her training. She'd have a full on bubble butt soon that jutted out high, round and proud that was for sure.

"..Excuse, can get you a move on and make your next wish already?" Shenron rumbled in annoyance, stopping my from replying.

Oh right!

"Alright then, for my second wish," I continued on after sending Bulla a wink and getting a cheeky smirk from her, "I wish for all the information the people known as Son Goku, Son Gohan, Piccolo, Kami, Popo, Krillin, Master Roshi, Tien Shinhan, Yamcha, Chiaotzu, Vegeta, Frieza, King Cold, Cooler, Cooler's Armoured Squadron and the Ginyu force know in regards to manipulating ki, magic and power raising transformations like the Super Saiyan transformations that I can use." This was a wish I'd put a lot of thought into. I even cut out the part of learning all their martial skills as well because the influx of information would probably be hundreds of years worth and may be too much for my brain to handle.

"Very well! Wish Granted!" Shenron boomed once more, eyes beginning to glow bright red again.

Information flooded my brain then. It was a rush of it so fast I could barely keep track, more and more and more and more and more. So many techniques, so many applications!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Decades, no multiples hundreds of years worth of ki training and manipulation rushed through me, too much for me to process.

I blacked out.
