Prologue: The Birth of a Prodigy (1st POV)


I have been dreaming recently. Maybe it is because I have been indulging in the histories lately. After being deemed a failure to the most prodigious family on earth, all the while having saiyan blood, I had failed to meet the expectations of a member of the saiyan-human hybrid race. My elder brother was born with a high power level, and was assumed already to be the next king due to his immense power. On the other hand, I was born a weak and frail child, but by the age of 2 I had already won the attention of the scholars of our city.

The older son with immense power and a natural fighter, the younger son a genius with an IQ of 240. But, my parents had expected me to catch up to my brother as a fighter, as was the customs. We were 2 years apart, and as I reached the status of genius in the local community, my brother had already flown around the world twice at the age of 4, and could withstand a gravity of 25x. I could barely do 2x gravity.

I'll briefly explain a bit more about my family ancestry and history. I am a direct descendant of the legendary super saiyan bardock, and also a direct descendant of the saiyan king, Vegeta. How so? To be more precise, my family's line started with Wok and Socks. Wok is Goku's Great-Grandson. Socks is Trunks' daughter.

I'm not so sure why my ancestors Vegeta and Bulma named their children after underwear but even their son, Trunks named his daughter after a type of footwear. It was intriguing for me to study the history of the saiyan-human hybrids and how they slowly overcame the racism and rose to setting up a new world government that makes sure the world is at peace and without crime.

Anyhow, going back to my family's history, we see the offspring of Wok and Socks becoming the most powerful family line in the world's history. Although there are some stories of incest and rape to keep the family bloodline pure, there are many other good stories of how our family sought to become the world's number one protectors from aliens and from internal and criminal affairs on earth.

Another thing that made our family stand out was that our skin colour was slightly darker than all the other saiyan-hybrids that lived on our planet. This was because our line of ancestors also included Uub, the most powerful human that ever lived. Uub fathered Wok, and eventually after 5000 years give and take a few, I was born into this noble household.

A genius fighter was born into the world once every thousand years. However, our household was able to produce a super genius every 200-300 years. Due to this, our family was able to take control of the government and set new laws that determined how the next emperor of the world was decided. A competition was held every 3 years to determine the strongest and the smartest. It was very rare for anyone to become both, and in the case that someone did, he/she was given the title of emperor. Since most kids with potential were brought up in the most humble and honest way possible, if one of them became the next emperor, it was highly likely that he/she would be a good ruler.

Unfortunately, when my brother was born, it was pretty plain to the rest of the world that he had a learning disability despite being a natural fighter. His IQ was average. It would be impossible for him to become an emperor. On the other hand, I was born a natural scholar, being able to learn faster and retain more knowledge than a couple thousand of the brightest scientists and professors on earth. My power level was around 20 at birth.

Power levels are determined by the average human's strength. The average human has a power level of 1. If my power level is 20 it means that I can fight and win against 19 humans. My brother's power level was at 30,000... when he was born. Although I have managed to barely train myself in 2x gravity, I was only able to raise my level to about 35. I read in the histories that some of the famous humans had power levels that were well over 100. There was a man who was once known as the strongest man on earth before Goku showed up, he went under the name of Turtle Hermit, and had a power level of nearly 175. Of course, all of his disciples eventually surpassed him. Before Uub was born, a man named Krillin was known to be the strongest human on earth at a power level of around 4,000.

I will now explain what happened before my epic journey across the world, and worlds beyond, began.
