Hey, Im Just Rai. I had an idea for a fic so here I am writing it. Hope you all enjoy this short first chapter.
I was four years old when I realized that I was not in Dragon Ball.
Okay, that was a lie. I'm not four years old, I'm much older, but the point still stands: I thought I'd been Isekai'd into the DBverse as Goku, if that wasn't evident by the tail I had.
But, no. I'm not Goku and I'm not in Dragon Ball. Instead, I've been reborn in My Hero Academia. With the powers of a Saiyan from Dragon Ball Z.
Up until this point, I'd been living with Grandpa Gohan. He, surprisingly, did exist in this amalgamation of a universe. Along with Mount Paozu and the power pole (I got that one as a gift for my birthday this year from Grandpa Gohan.)
I haven't seen any mention of the Dragon Balls, since it seemed like this version of Grandpa didn't have the Four Star Ball. Hopefully, that means they don't exist at all because, while it would be cool to have a gigantic wish-granting dragon, that would mean that there are Namekians and then also Namek... and then also other aliens, which would probably lead to the Saiyans... and then Frieza along with Beerus concluding with Zeno and the multiverse.
Even though it'd be a long time till we even got to the "Saiyan Saga" of this universe, you have to also remember that this is a My Hero universe too! And if there are dragon balls, then that means All For One could potentially have the means to unlock ultimate power.
That would not be a good time.
Also, I don't want to be erased from existence by Frieza, Cell, Buu, or any of the stronger opponents for that matter. If Canon Goku couldn't take on Cell, what makes you think I would be able to?
So for now, as I'm training under Grandpa, I'll go back to hoping that the only Dragon Ball aspects of this world are Gohan, Mount Paozu, the Power Pole, and myself with, what I'm going to be calling, my "Saiyan" quirk.
It took me a while to get out of the mentality that I was in Dragon Ball, what with literally living with Grandpa Gohan, but, when I did, I had to scrap all my future plans. I knew most of the events of Dragon Ball Z and Super until the Tournament of Power which meant I kinda planned everything around that, especially considering I had formerly thought that I actually was Goku.
Now, I need to replan everything around My Hero Academia so that I can kill All for One.
At first, I was kind of content with letting whatever happens, happen (When I realized I was in My Hero, not Dragon Ball). However, I knew that I would eventually have to come face to face with either the Demon Lord or someone among his "League of Lackeys". Also, if I truly had the powers of a Saiyan, then that means I get the transformations and I'd likely need some sort of human interaction, other than my life with Grandpa Gohan, in order to unlock it.
So, no staying on the sidelines, no waiting for things to happen, and absolutely NO OOZARU FORM, at least until I can control it that is.
The reason for that last one is... well- there are many reasons. The first is that I don't want to kill Grandpa Gohan. I know that happens in the original Dragon Ball, so I'd rather avoid that. Also, since we're in the My-Heroverse, that means if I DID go Oozaru, then a hero would probably see me and then I'd get reported, I'd be discovered with a dead Grandpa at my feet and I'd rather not go to prison.
"Goku!" I heard Grandpa calling me.
Welp, you know what they say! Absolutely nothing stops the Saiyan grind.
~[Monkey Business]~
It's been a few months since my sparking revelation and nearly a year since I started training.
Did you know that Goku's backstory was pretty much the same in this world? When I asked about who my parents were, Grandpa Gohan told me that he didn't know and that he found me in the forest one day when he heard crying. He saw a baby with a tail and decided that I shouldn't be allowed to fend for myself. Since there's also no Korin or Yajirobe, Grandpa Gohan is also the farmer for Senzu Beans. He doesn't farm too many, just enough for emergencies, but at least I now know that those exist. Those will be useful when the series actually starts.
Honestly, why is All Might such a horrible teacher? You'd have expected Nezu to at least make sure he knew the basics of teaching. But, no. All Might gets to just be thrust into the world of education. Why? Because he's All Might of course! (And also because Nezu is a sadistic prick who finds All Might's cluelessness funny.)
Hoping that this was mostly an MHA world kind of forced me to realize that there'd be no one to teach me different techniques, besides Grandpa Gohan. And while, sure, Gohan was knowledgable in that aspect, it meant that there was no one to teach me Instant Transmission (no Yardrat), or the Kaioken and the Spirit Bomb (No Kais), or Ultra Instinct (No gods), although I could probably figure those last two out for myself, given enough time and effort.
I've been training with Grandpa for nearly a year now, starting when I was about 3 and a half, and he recently started to teach me how to control the Ki aspects of my quirk. Turns out, in this world, Grandpa's quirk also lets him fire off energy, sort of like Ki, but that's really all it was. So we've just been training on how to control the properties of my blast, how big it was, how powerful it was (although even at my current maximum, my Ki blasts wouldn't even tickle Grandpa), and how much Ki we use.
Aside from the Ki training, Gohan's been teaching me Martial Arts since the beginning of our training and we've been practicing meditation on a semi-regular basis. I'd spend most of my free time meditating. I mean- I gotta get good at clearing my mind if I want Ultra Instinct one day, right?
It was a free day today, usually, Saiyans could train non-stop but Grandpa was insistent that I learn to relax. I had asked Gohan if I could go down the mountain to explore the city and, while reluctant at first, I was able to convince him that I would be fine because of my training and my naturally immense durability (thanks to my quirk). I wasn't quite bulletproof like Goku was at the start of Dragon Ball, but I should be fine and that's due to age and training anyway so I'll get there one day.
Since I was going into the city anyway, Grandpa gave me a list of things he wanted me to buy, along with some spending money. At least it meant I got to keep busy and had an excuse to tell adults that I wasn't lost.
It was kind of convenient that Mount Paozu was close to Musutafu, the home city of both U.A. and Izuku Midoriya, the ninth holder of One for All. Maybe I should seek him out- Wait. Does he even exist? Crap! How did I never even think to ask what year it was? I mean, I guess asking for the year would be meaningless since the year is never specified in My Hero, but I could have at least asked about recent events to place myself somewhere in this timeline.
Shit. Ah well, if most of the Isekai fanfiction I've read are to be believed, I'll probably be as old as Izuku. What? I've gotta do something to pass the time while waiting for Season 6 of My Hero to get animated. Although, I guess I'll never be able to see it animated now that I'm living it.
"Power Pole! Extend!" As I said that, the staff in question gained length which I used to vault over trees. Climbing down the mountain wasn't exactly difficult so long as I knew what I was doing. Training with the Power Pole must be paying off. Speaking of training, I should probably figure out how the transformations are gonna work.
No doubt Super Saiyan God and Blue are impossible to achieve. Normal Saiyans aren't capable of reaching those forms unless you did the divine ritual, which requires more Saiyans than I have, or they were constantly training with someone who did have God Ki (like Vegeta did with Whis), which also requires someone who already had God Ki."
Super forms all the way up to 3, including the Grade forms, are possible, if not incredibly difficult. I might be able to get away with Super Saiyan 4 if I manage to keep my tail throughout all of my future endeavors and I also manage to control my Oozaru form enough to go golden, which requires at least Super Saiyan anyway.
As I thought about what I'd be able to achieve in the future, I had reached the city. I took a deep breath, a little bit winded from climbing down Mt. Paozu, but nothing I couldn't handle.
Willing the Power Pole to shorten in length, I put it into the sheath I had on my back and started to walk through the city.
Musutafu wasn't so bad. It was my first time being in a populated area in this world and there were a lot of interesting people, each with interesting appearances. I didn't mind too much about how they looked, but it was going to take a bit to get used to.
I got a lot of looks from people around me, likely wondering why a child was roaming the streets alone. I reached into my Gi and pulled out the list of things Grandpa wanted.
I walked through the streets a bit more before coming onto a road near a playground that seemed kind of familiar.
"C-come on Kacchan! That's m-mean. If-If you keep doing that, then I'll have to stop you!" I heard the voice of a child. An annoyingly recognizable voice.
I looked towards the playground where my eyes widened as I saw five children, two of them standing behind one kid with Ash blonde hair and one on the ground behind a kid with green hair.
'What the fuck? Really? So soon?' was all I could think as I realized I'd just stumbled onto two of the main characters.
