I'll skip around and put this moment before whats going on with Ash and the class
day...
landscape of a garden...
Goku was using ki blasts to plow the fields when he noticed Chichi, Gohan arrive. Chichi and Gohan were watching Goku refocus himself and continue with the ki blast plowing.
"Look Gohan. Gokus always talking about training, so I had him plow the fields that way." says Chichi happily.
"Oh. Did not expect you to be happy about something like this." says Gohan.
"The tractor was acting up too." says Chichi looking at Gohan.
"How convenient." says Gohan.
"I know right! Goku trains and the fields get plowed. Its a win win in my book. Its like two birds with one stone." says Chichi.
"If youre happy about this, why did you tell us to come here?" wonders Gohan.
"You know how your father gets right?" wonders Chichi.
"Well, yeah, but what does that have to do with me? Doesn't he have whis to take on?" wonders Gohan confused.
"He would be if Whis hadn't denied his request." says Chichi.
~flashback~
"Oh, I'm sorry but I'm quite busy right now. We have to leave for the universal supreme kai and god of destruction joint summit." says Whis looking at his staff.
'Huh? Beerus actually works?' wonders Goku.
~reality~
"Hmmmm…..and Vegeta hasn't sparred with him as of late?" wonders Gohan crossing his arms.
"Vegeta glares at Goku no matter what he does." says Chichi.
"Glaring sounds like a typical Vegeta thing to do. Did something happen to Bulma we haven't found out about?" says Gohan.
"I bet they had an argument." says Chichi nodding to herself.
"Not even Piccolo?" wonders Gohan.
"Hes with Dende on the lookout. Something business related." says Chichi.
"That does seem boring when everyone is busy. That's if today is a working day for krillin." says Gohan.
"Will you do it? I know I am normally against it but this will entertain him for a while." says Chichi.
"I cant just do that. Maybe-"
Chichi glared daggers at Gohan, furious to know her son wouldn't fight his father.
"...errrrrrr…..I mean, I might be available but-"
Gohan looked at Chichi to see a red aura of fury form around her.
"Sure I fought a lot before Cell was killed but now...fighting just isn't in me anymore." says Gohan huffing as he looked at the ground
Suddenly he remembered he can become great saiyaman and fight Goku that way.
"I know just how to let dad have a great time fighting." says Gohan.
"Heh?" wonders Chichi.
"Theres still the hero I used to be." says Gohan.
"Uhhhh…." says Chichi.
Gohan pressed a button to show Chichi the great saiyaman attire then took off the helmet.
"What are you planning?" wonders Chichi confused.
Gohan powered up to super Saiyan to become the hero he once was as a high schooler then flipped into action in front of Goku.
"I hear you need help Son Goku." says saiyaman amused.
"I miss something here. Whatya up to Gohan?" wonders Goku sweat dropping.
"I am not Gohan! I am the one and only saiyaman!" says saiyaman.
"Sure you are." says Goku nodding while reverting his eyes.
"Would you just listen? At times I am pans kind daddy, other times I am a great scholar in training, mr. Satans son in law, Videls reliable husband..." says saiyaman.
"I knew that already." says Goku.
Saiyaman sighs then shrugs it off since Goku never officially saw saiyaman until the tournament.
"In reality, I have two versions of the saiyaman appearance! The one with the helmet I use to play with Pan and this appearance I haven't used in years!" says Saiyaman posing.
"So, youre Gohan right?" wonders Goku.
"Dammit dad….im not Gohan right now. Im Saiyaman….the one I portrayed as in highschool with Ash. You saw me look like this before Buu appeared." says Saiyaman.
"Oook then. So, are you the one willing to spar with me?" says Goku.
"Of course! Come at me and you will see the awesome might of the hero of highschool years!" says Saiyaman readying himself.
"To think he would choose this look to take on Goku." says Chichi curious if she made a mistake choosing Gohan to be Gokus sparring partner.
"Whats wrong Son Goku? You needed a sparring partner and here I am. Theres no holding back. Come at me already." says Saiyaman motioning for goku to start the spar.
"In that case…" says Goku.
Goku charges at Saiyaman, soon exchanging powerful blows that create shockwaves around the area.
"Not bad!" says Goku.
"You too!' says Saiyaman.
"You sure youre going all out as a super Saiyan Gohan?" wonders Goku.
"We just got started." says Saiyaman.
"Good. I was just testing you." says Goku.
"Now lets do this!" says Goku.
"Very well." says Saiyaman.
With Goku transforming into a super Saiyan, the two begin to fight more seriously as they continue the fight.
"Amazing Son Goku." says Saiyaman.
"You two saiyaman. Was thinking you would go to super Saiyan 2 for the real fight." says Goku.
Saiyaman was about to reply when they heard Chichi yelling, causing them to freeze then slowly turn to see how enraged Chichi was.
"What are you two doing!? Im sorry I ever felt bad about Goku needing a sparring buddy! If you want to continue. do it somewhere else! Just look at this place!" says Chichi annoyed.
Goku and a powered down Gohan still in the saiyaman attire, were frantically looking around at the damage they did to the landscape of a garden.
"I give you one thing since I felt you deserve it and YOU DESTROY THE PLACE!" says Chichi angrily.
"Oh no! We wrecked the freshly plowed garden. How unlike a hero of justice." says Gohan frantically.
"Looks like we got carried away." says Goku casually.
"Both of you…Gohan should know better than to fight on the ground yet both of you decided to go at it on the ground ruining the plowed garden!" says Chichi clenching her fists.
Gohan bowed his head apologetically while Goku just laughed nervously.
"THIS IS NOT HOW I PICTURED IT!" yells Chichi.
evening..
Woods; son house...
Goku was doing pushups while Chichi was pouring tea into a few cups.
"From now on, if you wanan train, do it elsewhere." says Chichi.
"I get it. I get it. I just wish someone had the time to spar with me." says Goku sighing.
"Id say Krillin but he has a job as a police officer. He doesn't have much time to think about training." says Chichi.
Before Chichi knew it, Goku had instant transmitted out of the house.
"Dammit Goku! I have to call 18 to give her the heads up." says Chichi trying not to be too annoyed.
night...
Krillin and a couple of police officers are chasing a pair of criminals.
"Running from the cops is easy." says the driver.
"In that case…" says Krillin.
Krillin uses his speed to appear in front of their car and cause them to crash, with the police car coming to a halt with the policemen amazed by Krillins speed.
"Krillin, that was so fast!" says the first officer.
"Just how fast was that!?" wonders the second officer.
"Well, theres a trick to it. I would advise you to not try it." says Krillin scratching his cheek.
Soon the two parties engage in a shoot-off, with Krillin protecting one officer from the criminal's shot, but his arm is grazed.
"Krillin!" say the officers worried.
"You ok?" wonders the first officer.
"Yeah, don't worry about me." says Krillin holding his arm.
"Thank goodness. Don't be so rash about decisions." says the second officer.
"Those guys have lost it." says the first officer.
Suddenly Goku appears waving to Krillin, oblivious to the scene going on.
"Hey Krillin!" says Goku happily.
"Goku!?" wonders Krillin surprised.
"Howd he appear like that?" wonders the first officer.
The two criminals prepare to shoot Goku because they think he's also an officer.
"Who the hell are you!?" wonders criminal 1.
"Goku, get away from here! These are burglars!" says Krillin frantically.
"Burglars?" wonders Goku looking at the criminals.
"Youre with these guys!?" wonders criminal 1.
"We will make swiss cheese out of you!" says criminal 2.
Goku suddenly moves in front of them and bends their guns, allowing the officers to arrest the criminals.
"What is this guy?" wonders criminal one stunned.
"Why would a human act like a monster?" wonders criminal 2.
"Why would I be a monster? Im too nice to be one." says Goku.
"Thank you for cooperating with us." says the first officer.
"Oh uhhh...s..sure." says Goku.
"You didn't come here to help me, did you?" wonders Krillin.
"Im here to see if youre up for training. Will you spar with me?" says Goku curiously.
"Training?" wonders Krillin.
"Krillin, youre hurt!" says Goku.
"Oh this. its nothing serious." says Krillin laughing nervously.
krillins house...
Krillin bandages his arm while Goku plays with Marron.
"Look Goku. Even if I sparred with you now, it wouldn't be satisfying." says Krillin.
"Its not like im forcing you too." says Goku.
"I know. Besides, I have my cop career to think about." says Krillin.
"Oh come on. We can spar for a little bit. Ive asked everyone else I can think of and noones really available for a spar. Just look at you now, you fight frieza when he came back and youre still alive." says Goku.
"That's because everyone was there." says Krillin.
"Come on dad, uncle goku, lets be happy and play." says Marron.
Android 18 shows up and picks up Marron, showing her disappointment in Krillin injured from a mere bullet.
"Let mommy give you a bath Marron." says Android 18.
"But I wanna play with daddy." says Marron.
"Daddy is having an important conversation." says Android 18.
"I cant believe you would get hurt by a mere bullet." says android 18.
"Don't look at me like that 18...it bums me out." says Krillin saddening.
"Krillin after all the fights you been through, a few gun shots injured your arm even though you could've dodged them." says android 18.
"That's what happens when im on duty." says Krillin looking away.
"Look at you! I didn't fall in love with a spineless weakling like how youre acting now." says android 18.
The room went quiet for a few minutes until Marron spoke up.
"Huh? Daddy is weak?" wonders Marron.
"Huh?" wonders Krillin stunned.
"So that means uncle is stronger?" wonders Marron.
"I sure am! Yet I still feel the urge to get stronger! Krillin wants to be stronger too, right?" says Goku happily.
Krillin was hesitant to say anything.
"Daddy wants to be stronger right?" wonders Marron.
Krillin couldn't help but smile when looking at Marron and nodded.
"Yeah, I want to be stronger too." says Krillin.
"If that isn't motivation enough, I don't know what is." says Goku.
"Goku, you wanted that spar right? Lets get to it!" says Krillin jumping to his feet.
outside...
While the two spar outside, they reminisce about training under Master Roshi as kids.
"This brings back memories. Being like this reminds me of how we trained under master roshi, right?" says Krillin.
"Yeah." says Goku nodding.
They both agree to continue their training at Kame House.
"Kame house is where we will train at! Like the good ol days!" say Krillin and Goku.
Krillin and Goku go quiet turning their heads to see Marron and android 18 with towels covering their hair.
"You heard all that?" wonders Krillin.
"Yeah, go on and go." says android 18.
next day...
Goku and Krillin fly to Kame house where they head inside to see Roshi eating toast.
"This is unexpected. What brings you two here this morning?" wonders Roshi.
"Its been a long time Master Roshi. I, Krillin, have come to ask of your assistance in retraining me." says Krillin bowing.
"Hmmm?" wonders Roshi.
Krillin awkwardly went up to Roshi and handed him a magazine filled with women.
"This is a little something for you." says Krillin.
Roshi eagerly grabbed the Pichi pichi magazine and skimmed through it.
"This is pretty impressive. This packs a bigger punch than breakfast." says Roshi getting a nose bleed.
"Krillin, you did something like this before, didn't you?" wonders Goku looking from behind the couch.
Roshi angrily whacked Goku with his staff.
"And where is your greeting?" wonders Roshi.
"You didn't have to whack me." says Goku rubbing his head.
"Tell me your greeting! I wont train you otherwise! To think an adult is so childish he cant act like a father or grandfather with the only thing on the mind being training." says Roshi.
"S..sorry! Id happily train with Hit again but the angels and gods of destructions are on leave. I mean, I technically already did but every one of the z fighters are busy except us and Gohan." says Goku.
"Don't get sidetracked!" says Roshi.
Goku got back on the floor and bowed like Krillin so he can do his greeting.
"Mast Roshi, please train me too." says Goku.
"That's much better." says Roshi.
"Master Roshi, could you spar with me later?" wonders Goku.
"You have the power of the gods now. I would be a boring opponent." says Roshi.
"Huh!? Sparing is still fun even if one is stronger!" says Goku stunned.
"That's why id like you to train me against Goku master Roshi. Id beable to grow greatly in strength myself. It would benefit my job as a police officer too." says Krillin putting his hand on his chest.
outside...
Goku is forced to put on a heavy turtle suit that he can barely walk in.
"Why is it I have to wear this? Why am I the only one wearing a turtle costume? Why is this thing heavy?" wonders Goku.
"You look good." says Roshi chuckling.
"Id like it if I wore something that is easier to walk in!" says Goku struggling to walk.
"Theres no use fighting in that! Or becoming super Saiyan." says Krillin.
"Heh? What!?" wonders Goku.
"Obviously, there needs to be a way to make this easier for me. Youre not exactly trustworthy when it comes to Saiyan transformations." says Krillin.
"But I wont beable to train like this." says Goku bummed.
"Well, you two start off by doing what you want." says Roshi.
"I'll give it a shot." says Goku.
"Cmon Krillin!" says Goku.
"Ok, here it goes." says Krillin.
The two begin to fight, and despite Krillin's aggressive assault, he notices that the heavy suit Goku is wearing is not affecting his movements at all.
"What is this? That getup isn't affecting Gokus movements at all." thinks Krillin.
Goku attacks back, and before he can land a heavy punch, they hear Roshi calling to them.
"That's enough!" says Roshi.
Krillin falls to his knees sweating heavily, out of breath.
"Krillin, that was great training! Thanks!" says Goku putting his hand out.
"R...right." says Krillin taking his hand.
Goku helps Krillin up then everyone went inside to talk about pros and cons to Krillin and Gokus strengths.
Night...
While Goku is asleep, Krillin is outside training on his own with Roshi noricing doubt within him.
"I see doubt in you. A strong will to move forward and a confused will. that has stopped and doesn't know how to resume moving." says Roshi stepping outside.
"Huh?" wonders Krillin turning around to see Roshi.
"Your punches, footwork. Everything you do has doubt." says Roshi.
"Marron said she wants a strong daddy and I was called a weakling by 18." says Krillin.
next day...
outside...
"Now, the next training is an errand." says Roshi.
"Seriously? An errand?" wonders Goku.
"Heh?" wonders Krillin.
"Well, even I cant fight the sands of time. I need you to fetch me a herb that will give me strength." says Roshi.
"Fetch it? You cant buy it?" wonders Goku.
"Its not sold in stores." says Roshi.
"That makes the errand tricky to find." says Krillin.
Roshi took out a rainbow colored herb to show Goku and Krillin.
"This is the herb I want you to get me." says Roshi.
"Ive never seen a herb like that before." says Krillin.
"This is called the paradise plant. It only grows in a deep, deep forest on a certain island and is a blessed and precious herb." says Roshi.
"Heh?" wonders Goku.
"Now, from here, its a race." says Roshi.
"That sounds fun!" says Goku.
"A race..." says Krillin.
"The one who brings it back first will receive this treasured super rare photograph book!" says Roshi showing the magazine off.
"Isnt there anything better? You think so too, right Krillin?" wonders Goku.
"Yeah." says Krillin nodding.
"Better!? How much better can I make this!? Are you saying my photograph collection isn't good enough!?" wonders Roshi.
"I don't want what I don't want." says Goku.
"If youre gonna be choosy about prizes, then I can give you an extra special prize. I know a secret skill that boosts ones energy in an instant that Ive been thinking of teaching you last night." says Roshi turning around.
"Wow! I definitely want that!" says Goku excitedly.
"Good luck you two!" says Roshi.
Sky...
"Master Roshi hasn't changed at all." says Goku.
"You haven't changed either Goku." says Krillin.
"Really?" wonders Goku.
"Seems everyones strength has changed." says Krillin.
"Huh? Did you say something?" wonders Goku.
"Oh, its nothing. Nevermind." says Krillin.
"Cmon, now im curious." says Goku.
"Seriously, its nothing." says Krillin.
"Hold up, we have to find it in this vast forest?" wonders Goku.
Island...
Upon landing, Goku and Krillin tread into the forest looking around.
"Hold up, we have to find it in this vast forest?" wonders Goku.
"If only we had some kind of clue.." says Krillin.
"Well, look who it is." says a voice.
Goku and Krillin meet Fortuneteller Baba, getting surprised by her appearing at the place Roshi told them to go.
"You!" says Goku.
"Long time no see." says baba.
"Master Roshis older sister!" says Krillin.
"Fortune smeller Baba!" says Goku.
Fortuneteller baba fell off her crystal ball stunned by what he called her.
"Its fortuneteller Baba!" says Baba annoyed getting on her crystal ball.
"Who cares which it is?" wonders Goku.
"I care!" says baba.
"What are you doing here granny?" wonders Goku.
"That guy asked me to come. My job is to watch your race in this crystal ball." says baba.
"Is the paradise plane beyond here?" wonders Krillin.
"This is perfect! If you know where the herb is, could you tell us?" wonders Goku.
"That wouldn't be training then." says baba.
"Awww no fun." says Goku.
"Now proceed! The paradise plant lies ahead!" says baba.
"Ok, from here its a race Krillin." says Goku looking at Krillin.
"Ready! Go!" says baba.
Goku and Krillin prepare to race to find the Paradise Plant, and they enter an eerie forest.
"They called it a race but this feels like a marathon." says Goku.
"We are searching without a clue. This is gonna be tough." says Krillin bummed.
They run until they see a giant statuelike demon, confusing them as they came to a stop.
"Its like we have to go through Fortune teller babas mouth!" says Krillin.
"I heard that! From here, its the real challenge." says Babas voice.
Goku and Krillin nod looking at eachother then went into the demon statues mouth. Goku and Krillin notice something strange about the forest they're in.
"Say Goku…" says Krillin worried.
"Hmm?" wonders Goku.
"Doesn't this place feel different from the outside?" wonders Krillin.
"Its kinda spooky." says Goku.
"Im starting to get scared." says Krillin.
Krillin took a step forward then the past few days came rushing to him making him get fidgety.
"Wh...wh...whats going on?" wonders Krillin.
"Th...theres something strange about this place." says Goku.
Suddenly Goku and Krillin are in the mysterious forest, surrounded by giant illusions of Frieza, Tambourine, Super Buu, Vegeta, Nappa, Cell, King Piccolo, and the Ginyu Force.
"Why are these guys here?" wonders Goku looking around.
Suddenly Raditz and Dabura appear making Krillin fidgety.
"What is this place!?" wonders Krillin.
"Calm down krillin. These guys are obviously illusions." says Goku walking up to Saiyan saga Vegeta.
Krillin freaked out when seeing Saiyan saga Vegeta catching Gokus fist then knock him into a tree.
"Goku!" says Krillin.
"That was some punch." says Goku getting up.
"But he cant be real, right?" wonders Krillin.
Two more illusions also appear: Dabura and Raditz.
"Yeah, theres no way Vegeta would be here and look like when he first came to earth." says Goku walking up to Krillin.
Goku and Krillin prepare to fight the illusions. Krillin kicks aside the fake Nappa then aims for tambourine when he gets reminded of what happened when he was a kid.
~flashback~
World tournament grounds...
With a swift kick, Krillin fell to the ground dead.
~reality~
Krillin frantically dodges his attack and runs, but as the fake Frieza charges at him, its causing him to remember the next death of his.
~flashback~
Krillin was levitated into the air and exploded leaving nothing left of him, with Piccolo, Goku and Gohan looking up at the sky with mouths agape.
~Reality~
Krillin is then confronted by the fake Super Buu, reminding himself of that dastardly chocolate beam.
~flashback~
Krillin attempted to fight super buu ending up turned into candy.
~reality~
As Krillin runs into the fake Dabura, getting reminded of the time he was turned into stone.
~flashback~
Dabura looked at everyone and started by spitting on Krillin slowly turning him into stone.
~reality~
Krillin ducks not wanting it to happen again, when Goku comes into view kicking Dabura away.
"Krillin, stop cowering and fight them off with me." says Goku.
"But these guys..." says Krillin looking up at Goku shooken up.
The two are then confronted by an illusion of Bulma.
Kame house..
"Sis, thanks for the help." says Roshi.
"My assistance fee is 10 million zeni." says baba getting off her crystal ball.
"I see youre as greedy as ever." says Roshi.
"Well, you can owe me." says baba.
Baba then broadcasts the events in the forest through her Crystal Ball, and Android 18 shows up with Marron.
"You certainly picked a fine place to do some drastic therapy." says baba.
"What drastic therapy." says android 18.
"Hmm?" wonders Roshi.
Roshi turns around to see android 18 carrying Marron.
"Oh, 18!" says Roshi.
"Ah, you were worried about your husband?" wonders baba.
18 walks up to the crystal ball and sees Krillin trembling with fear.
"Oh, daddy look out! Daddy, why aren't you fighting?!" says Marron stunned then annoyed.
"What is this!?" wonders android 18.
"This is the forest of terror." says Roshi.
"Forest of terror?" wonders android 18.
"Memories that lie deep within the heart take form in this forest. This is a forest between this world and the next. The enemies that appear are those who goku and krillin took on in the past. Theyre memories of heir battles." says baba.
"What?" wonders android 18.
forest of terror...
Goku takes Krillin and tries to fly away from the illusions, but they aren't losing sight of them no matter where he flew.
"Man theyre annoying. Krillin lets do a combined Kamehameha to keep them away." says Goku.
"B...but Bulma too!?" wonders Krillin.
"That's not bulma!" says Goku.
The duo stop midair to face the fake enemies.
"Lets do it krillin!" says Goku.
"Ri...right." says Krillin fidgetily.
They successfully do as the illusions all disappear from the blast then land on the ground where Krillin falls on his butt out of breath.
"You ok Krillin? Get a grip! They may feel real but they aren't." says Goku.
"R..right." says Krillin.
"Ok, we still need to find the herb. So lets get moving before more appear. Its a race after all." says Goku.
Goku prepares to go back to finding the herb, but a completely frightened Krillin gives up.
"Whats up with you? Arent you happy to be defeating the evildoers who killed you? Don't you want the feeling of killing the killer? Or even just spar with them?" wonders Goku.
"I thought I understood your character." says Krillin.
"Huh?" wonders Goku looking down at krillin.
"How can you be so happy at a time like this? Werent we defeated by them countless of times?" wonders Krillin.
Krillin jumped to his feet frantically trying to get Goku to reason with him.
"Frieza, Tambourine, Super buu….theyre al guys that killed me." says Krillin.
"What has gotten into you krillin?" wonders Goku.
"Im better off leaving." says Krillin.
"What about the herb? Master Roshi is counting on one of us to get it." says Goku.
"I cant call this fun like you do." says Krillin.
"Didn't you wanna get stronger?" wonders Goku.
"This is not how I pictured myself getting stronger!" says Krillin turning away.
"If you don't, you cant fight someone stronger than you." says Goku.
"I wont fight." says Krillin.
"Krillin…" says Goku.
"Im scared Goku. Cant you tell that im nothing like you!?" says Krillin shaking.
Krillin flies away and Goku chases after him, but they are trapped by the forest's trees that blocked the way out.
"Wha...whats this?" wonders Krillin.
The illusions also re-appear, even more giant than they were before. The fake King Piccolo grabs Goku and Krillin is knocked away by the fake Tambourine. Goku, turning into a Super Saiyan, beats down the illusions attacking him. Krillin crashes to the ground.
"Master Roshi...are you planning to keep us here until we finish the errand?" wonders Krillin looking up.
Kame house...
18 watches as the illusions directly attack Krillin.
"Daddy!" says Marron worried.
"Well, isn't this a spectacle?" wonders baba.
"This is too sickening to watch." says android 18.
"Then will you go and save him?" wonders Roshi.
"Whats wrong with daddy?" wonders Marron.
"Your daddy is fighting with himself." says android 18.
forest of terror...
Goku fights with the illusions by himself, constantly destroying them and they keep re-appearing.
"Man, theres no end to them." says Goku rubbing the back of his head.
Goku then becomes a Super Saiyan 3 to destroy them all at once. As he does this, the fake Frieza, Cell, Nappa and Super Buu that are surrounding him grow to be even more giant.
"Wait a second, are you all...?" wonders Goku.
Goku powers back down to base, beginning to meditate. The illusions then mysteriously disappear.
"Aha, I was right!" says Goku happily.
Kame house...
"They all disappeared." says Marron.
"It looks like Goku has figured it out." says Roshi.
"What do you mean?" wonders android 18.
"And now, lets see if Krillin can figure it out." says Roshi.
forest of terror...
Krillin is then frightened as he's surrounded by a large number of fake Friezas.
"How long are these things gonna keep reappearing?" wonders Krillin stepping back.
Goku hears Krillins screaming from a distance.
"Krillin! Aww man, what a time to be separated. I need to find a way to fly to him and fast." says Goku.
Goku thought for a moment then realized he could call upon nimbus. But would it reach him? Worth a try.
"Nimbus!" says Goku.
As immediately as it was called for, it appeared to Goku for him to get on.
Kame house...
"Not a bad idea." says Roshi.
forest of terror...
"Man, I've missed the feeling of riding nimbus. Ok, lets go Nimbus." says Goku.
Goku took off in search of krillin but little did he know, Krillin was surrounded by hundreds of frieza fakes that turned into tambourines, cells. then nappas.
"Mater Roshi, why are you making me fight them? Are you telling me to face my past where they beat me?" wonders Krillin.
Krillin stood glaring at the fakes, clenching his fists.
"Then, Il surpass them, all of them. I'll face my fears and surpass it!" says Krillin.
Krillin resolves to surpass this as he uses Solar Flare on the attacking illusions, but as he does they grow more giant.
"Heh!? What are these guys!?" wonders Krillin.
Krillin then uses the Destructo Disc, and cuts one fake Nappa in half, but the illusions grow even more.
"This energy…are these guys moving thanks to my energy?" says Krillin.
Krillin sits down and meditates, and the illusions are frozen in place.
"So I was right. When I calmed my mind they stopped moving. The more scared I was, the bigger and more numerous they become. I understand master Roshi. Unless I surpass the fears of the past, I will just continue to run away." says Krillin getting up.
Krillin concentrates his energy, defeating the illusions by attacking him as they are frozen in place.
kame house...
"Daddy did it!" says Marron happily.
"He finally figured it out. Now for one more trick." says Roshi.
"What are you going to do?" wonders android 18.
"Just sit back and watch." says baba.
forest of terror..
"Krillin!? Where are you!?" wonders Goku looking around.
Suddenly a fake Super Shenron that ambushes Goku and traps him.
"Even super shenron!?" wonders Goku confused.
Goku turns his head trying to get a good look at nimbus.
"Hold on nimbus!" says Goku.
Super shenron blows his breath on Goku who doesn't really like the smell.
"Bad breath much?" wonders Goku.
Krillin was on his way to see if Goku was ok then gets shocked to see super shenron wrapped around Goku.
"Goku!" says Krillin looking up.
"Oh, Krillin!" says Goku looking down.
"Super shenron is here too!?" wonders Krillin in disbelief.
"This ones not real either! This super shenron is small and has bad breath!" says Goku.
"You can defeat this fake in one hit, cant you?" wonders Krillin.
"IF I go full power now, I will blow away nimbus." says Goku.
"Flying nimbus?" wonders Krillin.
Krillin prepares to save them both, powering up and attacking Super Shenron with his aura-clad fists.
"That was great Krillin!" says Goku.
Goku almost fell when nimbus caught him.
"Thanks nimbus." says Goku.
Nimbus drops him down to the ground and flies away. Krillin powers up and Goku becomes a Super Saiyan Blue, and the two fire Kamehamehas to destroy the Super Shenron illusion.
Many herbs of the paradise plant then grow right in front of Goku and Krillin.
"Oh!" says Goku stunned.
"The paradise plant!" says Krillin.
"Wow! Look at how many are growing!" says Goku.
Kame house...
"Daddy was strong, wasn't he?" wonders Marron.
"Yeah." says android 18.
Roshi and baba chuckle to themselves.
sky...
Krillin was flying with a bag filled with paradise plants beside Goku who was on nimbus for a change.
"If we bring all these back, master roshi will be impressed!" says Goku.
"Say..." says Krillin.
"huh?" wonders Goku.
"No matter who comes, no matter the peril, you have the strength to face forward and laugh. I want to be strong like you." says Krillin.
"Me?" wonders Goku.
"I kept telling myself this whole time I wasn't cut out to be a martial artist but now, I'm starting to think differently and do it for me. No, for Marron I suppose." says Krillin.
"Say Krillin...I didn't understand any of that at all." says Goku.
Krillin sighs then looks back at Goku.
"I thought really hard about that!" says Krillin.
evening...
Kame house...
Upon landing to give Roshi the paradise plants, Krillin was surprised to see Marron and android 18 there.
"M...Marron!? 18!? Why...why are you here!?" wonders Krillin.
Android 18 pulled Krillin into a hug then Marron ran up to him excitedly.
"Daddy, I saw you! Youre strong after all!" says Marron happily.
Krilin was confused until he noticed the crystal ball and fortuneteller baba.
"Oh. That's what you used." says Krillin picking Marron up.
"Yeah." says android 18.
"Wow, well done! I expected nothing less!" says Roshi amazed by all the paradise plants.
"Well, it wasn't much of a race." says Goku rubbing the back of his head.
"That means I cant teach you the secret skill to boost your energy." says Roshi.
"I guess not, huh?" wonders Goku.
"Besides, if such a skill did exist, I want first dibs on it." says Roshi.
"It doesn't!?" wonders Goku stunned.
"So you bribed them with a false promise?" wonders android 18.
"Errrr...well..." says Roshi.
"That's not it 18." says Krillin.
"Huh?" wonder Roshi, Goku and android 18 turning their heads.
"Its about control over mind and energy. Right Goku?" says Krillin.
"Yeah, that's right. When we relaxed our bodies and held back our energy, Frieza and the others stopped appearing." says Goku.
"That's what master Roshi was after. You knew it all didn't you?" says Krillin.
"Of course." says Roshi.
"I wouldnt be too sure of that." says baba looking at Roshi.
"Then this was all unnecessary?" wonders android 18 looking at all the paradise plants.
"That's not true!" says Roshi.
Master Roshi eats the paradise plant, which is for his vitality.
"Master Roshi youre like a cow." says Goku stunned.
"Woohoo! I can go on living another thousand years! I feel my Vitality rising!" says Roshi happily.
"Well, I don't want you dieing before I get my assistance fee." says Baba.
"Am I really your brother?" wonders Roshi slumping his arms.
"Goku!" says Krillin.
Goku looked down at Krillin to see he was holding up his hand.
"Heres to a strong future." says Krillin.
"Yeah." says Goku taking his hand.
next day...
Krillin then has his head shaved bald by 18, to which Marron happily looked at how good Krillin looked bald.
"All finished." says android 18.
"Wow! Youre all smooth!" says Marron.
"Do I look cool Marron?" wonders Krillin.
"You look cool!" says Maroon happily jumping.
Before they knew it, Goku appeared.
"Hey Krillin!" says Goku.
"Whats up?" wonders Krillin.
"Im feeling rusty today. Wanna spar?" wonders Goku.
"Sure, but no going super Saiyan!" says Krillin.
