Chapter 872: Jerry Officially Takes the Role of Kami (Second Update)
"Guys, he's the world-destroying Piccolo!"
Krillin and Yamcha, along with the others, were still trembling with fear from the terrifying Piccolo, whom they couldn't even hope to fight.
Jerry is strong, but Jerry always keeps his ki under control, so when he's not using it, he comes across as a very kind and approachable person, never giving off any sense of pressure.
But Piccolo is different. His evil ki is so overwhelming that just standing in front of him can make you tremble with fear.
"Actually, the egg that hatched isn't entirely Piccolo anymore."
Jerry smiled and explained the difference:
"Don't worry, I'll take care of this egg. I won't let it turn into Piccolo and cause harm to the world again."
Hearing Jerry's words, everyone stopped arguing.
After all, even Piccolo couldn't stand up to Jerry for more than a single move. If the egg were to become Piccolo, it wouldn't stand a chance against Jerry either.
As long as Jerry was watching over the egg, they naturally felt less afraid.
Moreover, Jerry always gave them a reliable impression. If he said it would be fine, it would be fine.
After resolving the issue with Piccolo, Jerry left, citing the need to handle the egg. Before he went, he told Goku and the others:
"If you feel your training progress is slowing down, or if you want to become even stronger and are willing to endure hardships, I suggest you climb Korin Tower.
Remember to bring the Power Pole. It can transport you to the place where Kami resides, where you can receive better training methods."
After Jerry disappeared, Goku, Tien, and the others exchanged glances, their eyes burning with determination. Clearly, they all shared the same thought: they wanted to become stronger.
At this time, they were all young, and the gap between them wasn't significant. They were all in their prime, eager to compete for the championship of the World Martial Arts Tournament.
At Kami's Palace, Jerry, holding the egg, approached Old Kami.
Old Kami looked at the egg in Jerry's hands and sighed:
"You should have killed him!"
"If you had killed him, you would have died too."
Jerry smiled.
He knew that if Old Kami wished, with his divine powers, he could see anything happening anywhere on Earth.
So, Old Kami was well aware of Jerry's actions below.
"I didn't expect you to know this secret."
Old Kami was taken aback by Jerry's response. He had only told Jerry that Piccolo was his reincarnation but hadn't revealed the secret that if one of them died, the other would die as well.
Then, he turned to Mr. Popo, the only other person who knew this secret.
Mr. Popo shrugged:
"Mr. Popo didn't tell Jerry this secret."
"I have a magic called 'Foreseeing,' which allows me to roughly predict future events."
Jerry explained:
"Actually, you should know, Lord Kami, that the Piccolo who hatches from this egg is no longer the same Piccolo.
His nature is hard to change. He is my evil incarnation, and even if he becomes a new life form, it will be difficult for him to change.
Jerry, soon I will pass the position of Kami to you. You will be the future Earth Kami, and my life or death is no longer as important."
Old Kami was clearly still hoping Jerry would destroy the egg.
Since he and Piccolo were one and the same, he couldn't bring himself to kill Piccolo, and Piccolo couldn't bring himself to kill him.
"Let's do this. For now, keep him at Kami's Palace. If he doesn't change his ways, we can always deal with him later. After all, you know my strength, Lord Kami."
Jerry suggested finally.
Old Kami thought for a moment and finally nodded. Jerry's reasoning made sense.
Besides, he would rather not go to the Underworld to report to King Yemma if he could help it.
"Jerry, from today on, you are the new Kami of Earth. Protect Earth's safety, but don't meddle in human affairs unnecessarily, understood?"
On the throne of Kami's Palace, Old Kami touched Jerry's forehead with a finger, officially passing on the role of Kami.
Jerry nodded, instantly feeling a mysterious power enter his body. His mind was filled with knowledge and abilities known only to the Kami.
His body then radiated a brilliant golden light, resonating with the laws of the universe.
Two days later, the egg that Jerry had placed in a cradle on the square of Kami's Palace began to emit intense energy fluctuations.
Mr. Popo, who was watering the flowers, immediately shouted:
"Kami Lords, the egg is hatching! The egg is hatching!"
"Whoosh!"
The retired Old Kami and the new Kami, Jerry, instantly appeared beside the egg.
"This feeling, for some reason, is a bit exciting!"
The birth of a new life is always thrilling, even if it's the child of Piccolo.
"Crack!"
As the energy fluctuations intensified, the white shell started to crack, and then shattered completely, revealing a miniature version of a baby Piccolo to the three of them.
"Looks healthy. Let's leave it to Mr. Popo to take care of."
Jerry had to meditate daily to construct his dimensional universe and had no time to care for a baby.
Mr. Popo, who enjoyed taking care of plants and animals, should have no trouble raising a little Piccolo. Besides, Mr. Popo's combat power was over a thousand, and even when little Piccolo grew up, he wouldn't be a match for Mr. Popo.
"Mr. Popo will take good care of him."
Mr. Popo picked up the miniature Piccolo and replied happily.
Old Kami, leaning on a cane, stared at the newborn Piccolo, who looked somewhat cute, and his expression became complex.
"Perhaps, you are right."
Little Piccolo grew quickly, changing almost daily. By the third day, he could walk on his own and use the special abilities of Namek to create a shirt with a large "Devil" symbol.
By the fifth day, he was running fast, but every time he saw Jerry, he would puff up and declare in a determined voice:
"One day, I will kill you and avenge my father!"
At such times, Jerry would always threaten him in a menacing tone:
"Before that happens, I'll strip you naked and hang you on the square as a kite."
This always scared little Piccolo, who would hide behind Mr. Popo, trembling.
However, influenced by the memories of the older Piccolo, little Piccolo often took advantage of Jerry's meditation to cause mischief on the square. Each time, Old Kami would chase him with his cane.
A month later, little Piccolo had the appearance of a human child around four or five years old. While meditating and constructing the dimensional universe, Jerry suddenly heard Korin's voice.
"Kami, Goku and his friends have arrived at Korin Tower. They wish to train at Kami's Palace. Do you agree?"
"Let them come up!"
Hearing Korin's words, Jerry slowly opened his eyes.
