AN: Hi there. I'm Xero and this is my first story on this site. I have no writing experience prior to this story that I'm creating but I will try and let you have at least some level of enjoyment whilst reading this story. If you think that I can do anything to improve my writing, please write it down in a review of the chapter. Thank you for your time. Also, please tell me if you can think of a better title.

Piccolo sighed in annoyance for about the fifth time today.
Today was supposed to be a good day, for it had been six months since Raditz had attacked the Earth, and six months since he had started training to stand face to face with the stronger Saiyans coming to Earth; which meant that he would finally acquire a sparring partner in the form of Gohan. It would have been a mile point in his training.
Except for the fact that Gohan could not compare to him in strength as of now and he constantly whined about the loss of his sword, which Piccolo had ordered him to abandon so that he could fully commit to training his body to fight with punches and kicks instead of a sword. It was apparent that he had grown attached to using a sword during his adventures during the last six months; as during the spar that had occurred between them today to test Gohan's strength, he had often reached for his back as if to draw a sword and then stopped halfway through whilst gaining an embarrassed look upon his face.
What Piccolo could do was teach him the alteration type ki manipulation technique, however it took a great amount of ki control to create a weapon and even he only used it for the Special Beam Cannon to give it its drilling properties. So that's a hard maybe.
The other option was to just give him his sword back, but Piccolo highly doubted that a slab of sharp metal could do much against the Saiyans. So that's a hard no.
Piccolo was incredibly tempted to take the latter option, just to get Gohan to shut his damn mouth about his damn sword and he would have, had he not registered the implications of a ki sword. A blade that was as strong, sharp and durable as the user's ki? That could be useful, but it wouldn't do squat if the user of the ki blade wasn't strong themselves.
So that would mean Gohan would have to become much stronger in order to make good use of the ki blade, and balancing ki control training through meditation and training of the body would be generally simple seeing as Gohan could meditate whilst recovering from training wounds. This new training method would begin now though, he had an annoying brat to , brat!" Piccolo yelled, backhanding Gohan into a mountain, knocking him out and most definitely aggravating some of the wounds from the earlier spar. When he said he would train the brat in preparation for the Saiyans, he did not sign up for any kind of babysitting. He would leave Gohan embedded in the mountain until tomorrow and then come back to implement his new training scheme.
AN: I apologise for the first chapter's short length, only reaching 467 words. This, however, is the pilot chapter and chapters after this will be around 2,000 - 3,000 words in length. Updates will be every week, give or take a few. Inspirations for this story came from Goku Black's Violent Fierce God Splitter, which I just thought was super badass.
