Chapter 855: Battle Power Breaks Ten Thousand (First Update)
Chapter 855: Battle Power Breaks Ten Thousand (First Update)
"Since that's the case, then it's—Kame—Ha—Me—Ha!"
Just as Jerry was about to use the Kamehameha, a coughing sound suddenly came from the entrance of the main hall of Heaven's Palace:
"Cough, cough. You can stop now. Very good, you have great potential."
It turned out to be the Elder God, who had been secretly watching. Afraid that Jerry's Kamehameha would destroy Heaven's Palace, the Elder God hurriedly came out to stop him.
Hearing this, Jerry decided to back off and dispersed the energy he had just gathered.
He wasn't really trying to defeat Popo. The fact that Popo's martial arts realm was higher than his was undeniable. Even if he won, it would only be due to his physical strength.
Using the Kamehameha was just to force the Elder God to reveal himself and quickly end this test, so he could start his true training.
"Lord God!"
Seeing the Elder God, who was green from head to toe and leaning on a cane, appear, Popo immediately clasped his hands together and bowed.
Jerry also bowed and introduced himself briefly:
"Lord God, my name is Jerry Carmen. I want to come here to train in martial arts under you."
"Since you have Korin's recommendation and show some potential, you can stay!"
The Elder God came up to Jerry and looked him over carefully, as if sensing something. Finally, he nodded in satisfaction.
The Elder God cannot live forever. After a certain period, he will either die or, more accurately, complete his mission and ascend to Heaven. Before leaving, he will choose a successor to take over his position.
The Elder God was chosen by the previous Elder God three hundred years ago, just before the latter left.
Now, the Elder God felt that it might be time for him to step down, so he wanted to find a successor to prepare in advance, ready to take over whenever he left.
To become Earth's God, one must first be powerful enough to climb Korin Tower and gain Korin's approval, then come to Heaven's Palace to undergo rigorous training from the God and Popo.
Secondly, one's character must be pure, with no evil thoughts. Only a kind person can become God.
Jerry's appearance made the Elder God's eyes light up.
Being able to match Popo, even though his martial arts realm was a bit lower, was impressive. Compared to when the Elder God split into multiple bodies in the past, Jerry was weaker, but his potential was still very high. With a bit of training, his strength should improve significantly.
Moreover, Jerry knew magic, which was a significant bonus. The Elder God himself had many special abilities, which was why the previous God had favored him.
As for character, the Elder God had just used his divine powers to check. From birth to the present, Jerry had never done anything bad, and he had hardly ever killed anything.
The Elder God could also sense that Jerry's magic power was very pure, leaning towards light, which met the criteria to become God.
Of course, whether Jerry could truly take over the position would need to be observed over time. The Elder God still had a while before his lifespan ran out.
"Thank you, Lord God!"
Jerry clasped his hands together and expressed his gratitude.
Before flying to Heaven's Palace, Jerry had already adjusted his magic power to be of the light type. As a being from the multiverse, adjusting his attributes was a simple matter.
The purpose was to avoid making the Elder God dislike him, so he could stay at Heaven's Palace to train.
The effect was clearly very good.
On September 1, 749 AE, Jerry ascended to Heaven's Palace and began training in martial arts under the Elder God and Mr. Popo.
On the same day, while driving a small car in search of the Dragon Balls, Bulma met a naive little boy with a tail named Goku in a remote place called Baozi Mountain.
Goku convinced him to join the journey to find the Dragon Balls.
The next day, the two encountered the lecherous Roshi while rescuing a turtle. Goku obtained the Nimbus Cloud, and Bulma acquired the Three-Star Dragon Ball through a trade.
Time passed, and it was now May 9th, Age of Earth 750.
Jerry, now a young adult, was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed on the plaza outside Heaven's Palace, meditating.
Although only a year had passed in normal time, it felt like nearly three years for Jerry due to his two-day stay in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, which added two additional years to his training.
During these nearly three years, Jerry's magic power had recovered significantly, reaching the Celestial Father Level. He also recreated his Spatial.
His martial arts skills had greatly improved, especially his martial arts realm.
Apart from the careful guidance of God and Popo, Jerry was also sent by God to various times and dimensions to train and spar with the most exceptional martial artists of different eras.
Now, he could float and fly using only his ki, and he had complete control over it, making it undetectable.
Most importantly, he had made some progress in understanding the realm of emptiness, similar to Popo's.
If there were a battle power detector, purely based on his body and ki, his battle power would likely exceed ten thousand.
If magic were factored in, it would be impossible to calculate his battle power.
Jerry had a vast array of magic, and many of his abilities couldn't be measured by battle power. For example, if an enemy launched a massive energy wave, he could simply create a Spatial door to send it back.
However, he didn't come to this world to enhance his magic power but to train his physical body and martial arts. Therefore, unless he encountered an opponent he truly couldn't defeat, he would avoid using his magic.
"Hmm, Bora's ki is fading!"
Jerry, who was contemplating the realm of emptiness, suddenly opened his eyes and said to Popo, who was watering the flowers nearby:
"Mr. Popo, I'm going down for a bit. I'll be back soon."
Before climbing Korin Tower, the Tower Guardian, Bora, and his son had treated Jerry to a grilled fish. Jerry remembered their ki and planned to save them if they were ever in danger, as a way to repay the favor.
Just now, he clearly felt Bora's ki weakening and almost disappearing, indicating that Bora was severely injured and near death.
"Alright!"
Popo, who was watering the flowers, waved to Jerry.
After Jerry left, the Elder God, leaning on a cane, stepped out of the temple and used his divine powers to observe the situation below.
After a moment, a satisfied smile appeared on his deep green face.
"It seems I didn't misjudge him!"
"He has great potential and should become a fine God in the future."
At that moment, Popo also put down the watering can and walked to the Elder God's side.
When Jerry first arrived at Heaven's Palace, his strength was far below what the Elder God had when he first ascended to the palace over three hundred years ago.
However, Jerry's improvement was incredibly fast. In less than a year, including the two years spent in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, his strength had increased more than tenfold, which was an astonishing rate of progression.
