Chapter 60 - 57: Training Ensues, Learning Kaioken and Unlocking Wrath State! (I) (1/2)

Year 733 Late May, Other World, King Kai's Planet.

With a jaw that was widely open out of shock, two figures came out of the [Gate] that appeared out of nowhere. The first thing King Kai heard was a soft giggle from Miya. It didn't take long for Nao and Miya to arrive in front of King Kai.

”See, brother? That wasn't so bad now was it? It looks like choosing Earth as a midway point was the correct choice after all.”

”I hate to say it but it finding this place while on The Lookout turned out fine. I still feel I have a lot of Ki stored, maybe it only took about 30% of my reserves to reach here?”

”Hmm, just 30%? Maybe if we were back on our home world with our current strength it might've taken 50-60% at most.”

After concluding on some rough calculations Nao and Miya just made, Nao then had a good look at the figure in front of him, who still had his jaw widely open. Nao then started walking toward King Kai, who finally regained his senses, and after shaking his head a bit, he placed his hands behind his black garb. Once Nao and King Kai were a few feet in distance from each other, Nao clearly saw the black symbol on King Kai's garb. Nao often spoke Japanese in his previous life thanks to being raised by Japanese parents, and he immediately understood what the symbol was. It was none other than the Kanji that meant North, as King Kai ruled over the Northern Area.

A moment of silence soon spread once Miya stopped her giggling. Right before the [Gate] appeared, King Kai was actually in the process of replacing his tea and Bubbles, a monkey that King Kai was raising, ended up dropping a tea set onto the ground, which ended up shattering into pieces. He only kept hooting before Nao and Miya arrived. King Kai was also known for raising another pet, which happened to be a talking cricket name Gregory. To end the momentary silence, Nao bowed at a 45 degree angle, and started their introduction.

”Greetings. Though I wouldn't really call this our first meeting, it is still a pleasure to see you in person for the first time, King Kai.”

”Are you two really the two Saiyan kids I talked to a year ago?”

”Hehe, we sure are. King Kai. Didn't you see the portal brother just created, or did you grow old enough to go senile?”

”I'm not that old, missy. I may have been alive for several millennia but us Kai have much longer lifespans that you Saiyans. Couldn't the two of you have gone the normal way to reach here? You know, through Snake Way? How the heck did you even create a portal anyways?”

”Now why would we start spouting out our secrets? We used a legit method to come here. Hopefully you didn't forget that bet, King Kai, hehe.”

”B-Bet? Actually, I do feel my back aching more and more lately. Maybe I have gotten old enough to forget what we talked about a year or two ago...? Ha-haha...”

”You know, I could knock some sense into that head of yours so you remember it clearly, old man.”

Seeing his sister start bickering with one of the most influential persons in the whole universe, Nao could only let out a sigh. Nao figured something along these lines would happen right after they arrived. Even though the two were still children, Nao started to wonder if he should actually correct this habit of hers. Thankfully the two knew King Kai isn't actually that powerful in terms of battle power, and Miya knew well when to keep her personally in check. While he did enjoy Miya's spirited attitude a lot, it would probably benefit him if Nao could correct this part of her personality in the long run.

Without saying anything, Nao approached Miya and brought her into his embrace, wanting to calm her down. Feeling Nao's warmth spread throughout Miya's body did its magic and soon enough she turned quiet again, not pestering King Kai anymore. She still looked toward his way though, sticking her small tongue out in a joking manner. Nao then rubbed her head, comforting her in the process.

”Now now, Miya, don't pester King Kai like that. I didn't even want to take that bet in the first place. Didn't we come to say our thanks?”

”Haha, that's quite funny, kid. Do you really make me out to be a fool coming all the way here just to thank me? I do like to crack jokes myself but I can clearly see you want something else too. Well I did promise that I'd reward you with something if you made it all the way here, sigh...Come on kid, tell King Kai what you want.”
