"Then I'll head back now." After saying that, the Supreme Kai vanished instantly.
Bardock took a deep breath, the air filled with the unique fresh scent of Mount Paozu. Suppressing his excitement, he immediately flew towards Goten and Gohan, who were not far away, and landed steadily beside them.
Both Son Goten and Son Gohan were stunned. They turned around and, upon seeing the man who looked remarkably like their father, their faces were filled with confusion and astonishment.
"Kakarot!" Bardock looked at the child in front of him who looked remarkably like his son when he was young, and excitedly stepped forward, reaching out to gently stroke Son Goten's head.
Son Goten: "???"
Sun Wutian blinked his big eyes, completely unaware of what had happened.
"I recognized you at a glance, Kakarot!" Bardock was both surprised and delighted, but looking at Goten's height and face, he felt that something was not quite right. He frowned and muttered in confusion, "Aren't you 37 years old? How come you're only this tall? You still look like a child."
"Huh? Uncle... who are you?" Sun Wutian felt a little uncomfortable being touched, scratched his head, and asked with a puzzled look.
“I am your father.” Bardak looked at him with a gentle smile.
Sun Wukong: "..."
Sun Wufan: "..."
Both of them stood frozen in place as if under a spell, and then they both shivered.
Are you our father?
This...this is a bit too much!
Who would immediately claim someone as their son?
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Gohan was the first to react, frowning and saying irritably, "Although you look a lot like my dad... how could you possibly be my dad?"
"Uncle... my dad is over there!" Sun Wukong quickly stretched out his little hand, pointed at Sun Wukong who was cultivating, and said seriously, "Don't think that just because you look like my dad, you're my dad!"
"Your father?" Bardock was slightly taken aback and looked in the direction Goten pointed. When he saw the familiar figure sitting cross-legged, a bead of cold sweat immediately rolled down his face.
Oh... he's the real Goku!
I was too excited just now and didn't even see it.
Bardock sighed inwardly. Now that he thought about it, Kakarot was already 37 years old. Wasn't it normal for him to have a son?
Looking at the two children before him, Bardock's eyes immediately filled with affection. Instead of disturbing Goku who was training, he gazed at his two grandsons with doting eyes and asked softly, "So, are you two both Goku's sons?"
Chapter 160 Goten: Grandpa, I'm Super Saiyan 6 now!
“Yes,” Son Goten nodded, looked up at Bardock, and asked curiously, “Uncle, who are you…”
"Who are you?" Son Gohan asked immediately afterward, his eyes still showing a hint of wariness.
"Don't call me uncle," Bardock reached out again and gently rubbed Goten's head, a warm smile on his face. "I am your grandfather."
"Grandpa?" Son Goten looked confused. He turned to look at his older brother Son Gohan beside him and asked in a low voice, "Brother... Dad's dad is called Grandpa, right?"
Sun Wufan: "..."
Son Gohan opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
"You're Grandpa?" Gohan quickly realized what was happening, looking at Bardock with a bewildered expression and disbelief in his eyes.
"Hmm." Bardock said, then raised his hand and rubbed Gohan's head, the warmth of his palm carrying the rough texture unique to Saiyans.
Son Gohan was momentarily stunned, his brows furrowing slightly.
I heard from Uncle Vegeta that when Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta, didn't Grandpa and Grandma turn into cosmic dust along with the planet?
Are you really my grandfather?
"Grandpa's still alive?" Gohan scratched his head, his tone uncertain, and quickly asked, "I heard... back on Planet Vegeta..."
You can't just claim kinship with anyone you meet, can you?
If this person didn't look so much like his father and didn't exude a vague sense of familiarity, Gohan probably wouldn't have easily called him "Grandpa."
"Back then, when I sensed that Frieza was going to destroy Planet Vegeta, I took the initiative to challenge him." Bardock took a deep breath, his tone becoming heavy, and a trace of the tragedy of that year flashed in his eyes. "However, I was no match for him at all, and in the end, I was sucked into the spacetime rift torn open by the planet-destroying bullet he released."
"Space-time rift?" Gohan was taken aback; he was familiar with the term.
He had heard his father, Sun Wukong, mention the spacetime rift.
Previously, when Goku and Merus were fighting in the Supreme Kai's World, a spacetime rift suddenly opened, and Vegeta was accidentally pulled into it.
"When I woke up again, I found myself on Planet Vegeta 1000 years ago." Bardock's voice deepened as he slowly raised his head, gazing at the distant sky with a solemn and weathered expression.
"Planet Vegeta 1000 years ago?" Gohan was slightly taken aback, his eyes filled with surprise.
Sun Wukong, standing to the side, scratched his head, his little face full of confusion, clearly not understanding the concept of a time spanning thousands of years.
“Back then, it wasn’t called Planet Vegeta, but Planet Plant,” Bardock patiently explained. “Originally, we Saiyans lived on Planet Shadara. Later, Planet Shadara was destroyed due to an internal conflict. It was Vegeta I who led the Saiyans to conquer Planet Plant and renamed it Planet Vegeta.”
Son Gohan suddenly realized that the Saiyans had such a past.
"Grandpa, which incarnation is Uncle Vegeta in now?" Goten asked curiously, blinking his innocent big eyes.
“The Fourth,” Bardock answered succinctly.
Sun Wukong nodded thoughtfully, seemingly trying to process the information.
“So Grandpa came from 1000 years ago,” Son Gohan had basically come to believe the identity of the person in front of him, and his attitude became even friendlier. “But how did Grandpa get back to the present?”
“I was flying over Cyril at the time,” Bardock recalled. “For some reason, a spacetime rift suddenly opened up in the sky, and I was sucked in before I could react. When I came to my senses, I was already in the Supreme Kai’s world.”
"Did the Supreme Kai send Grandpa here?" Gohan quickly figured out the connection and asked.
“Yes.” Bardock nodded, turning his gaze to the direction where Goku was training, and sighed, “More than thirty years have passed since we last met, and I never imagined that Kakarot’s son would grow up so much…”
Upon hearing this, both Son Gohan and Son Goten couldn't help but grin, their faces showing a hint of shyness.
"I don't even know your names yet." Bardock's gaze fell on Son Goten, his face full of doting affection—this child looked exactly like Goku when he was a child.
“My name is Sun Wutian,” Sun Wutian replied crisply, tilting his little face up.
"Son Gohan." Son Gohan quickly followed suit and gave his name.
"Hmm, weird name... never mind." Bardock muttered.
There was a brief silence.
"Is your father cultivating there?" Bardock turned to look at Sun Wukong, who was still resting with his eyes closed, but did not go forward to disturb him. Instead, he asked the two children.
“Yes, Dad is training hard,” Son Gohan nodded in response. “The match against Universe 6 is in a few days.”
"A tournament in Universe 6?" Bardock paused for a moment, then pondered, "I've never heard of Universe 6."
"Grandpa, I know, I know!" Son Goten immediately shouted excitedly, running up to Bardock and explaining with great gestures, "The universe is huge! I heard there are twelve universes in total, and we belong to the seventh universe!"
"Really? Is that so?" Bardock raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and asked, "Are the people of Universe Six powerful?"
"I don't know." Sun Wukong shook his head, as he only had a vague understanding of these things.
“How about this…” Bardock looked at the two children’s curious eyes, and an idea struck him. He patted Goten’s head and a mysterious smile appeared on his face. “Grandpa will show you a level of power that you have never seen before.”
"A realm I've never seen before?" Sun Wukong immediately became interested, rubbing his little hands excitedly, his big eyes sparkling with anticipation as he stared intently at Bardock.
"Grandpa, can we watch it now?" Son Gohan was also looking forward to it.
After all, watching my father meditate and cultivate here is indeed a bit boring.
Grandpa said there was a realm they had never seen before. What could it be?
“Let’s go somewhere further away,” Bardock suggested, pointing to the depths of the forest, “so as not to disturb Kakarot’s training.”
Son Gohan and Son Goten naturally did not object.
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"
Three figures simultaneously rose from the ground, flying towards the deep mountains and forests like three streaks of light, bringing with them a whistling sound.
Soon, Bardock led Gohan and Goten to a remote area deep in the mountains.
Here, ancient trees reach for the sky, and strange rocks abound; the only sounds are the clear chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves in the wind.
"Grandpa, let us see that realm you've been talking about that we've never seen before!" Sun Wutian's anticipation grew stronger, his eyes shining as he eagerly urged.
“Well then… watch closely.” Bardock took a deep breath, and his aura suddenly surged.
The next second, a dazzling golden flame suddenly burst forth from Bardock's body, and his hair instantly stood up high, turning into a brilliant gold—it was the legendary Super Saiyan form!
Sun Wukong: "..."
Sun Wufan: "..."
The two brothers exchanged a glance, their faces immediately filled with speechlessness.
Could the "level we've never seen before" that Grandpa was talking about be the Super Saiyan?
"This is a Super Saiyan!" Bardock said with a proud smile, looking at the two children and asking, "Have you ever heard of the legends about Super Saiyans?"
Son Gohan and Son Goten's lips twitched, and for a moment they were speechless.
Bardock: "????"
Badak paused for a moment, looking at his two grandsons with some confusion.
Why aren't they surprised at all?
Could it be... that they can do that too?
"Grandpa, there are already Super Saiyan 6s now." Gohan scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said in a low voice, "Yours... can only be considered Super Saiyan 1."
"Wh...what!?" Bardock was instantly stunned, his eyes widening, his face filled with shock and disbelief.
What Super Saiyan 6?
What is this child saying?
Why can't I understand anything?
“He’s my dad,” Son Goten added from the side, his little face full of pride, “Dad can already transform into Super Saiyan 6!”
Bardak was even more shocked, his mouth slightly agape, unable to utter a word for a long time.
What is the concept of Super Saiyan 6?
"It seems I really am falling behind the times." Bardock chuckled self-deprecatingly, but then he clenched his fists tightly, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes, his expression becoming increasingly serious. "However, Grandpa didn't stop at being just an ordinary Super Saiyan..."
"Snapped!"
