Chapter 27
In a small planet a quarter size of the earth and had 10X higher gravity, encompassed with grass with a lone brick road encircling it, the chubby turquoise blue lord snickered
" Really a flower?" King kai teased, Piccolo responded with a death glare as warning, the comedic lord shared with and allowed the Namekian to observe the earth using his almost omniscience powers
The Namekian's cheeks and ears flushed purple, he scowled looking down and busied himself counting grass blades
He had regretted accepting King kai's offer in helping him hear what was happening in the world of the living, because now he felt annoyed when determination sparked in his heart, determination to fight alongside Gohan
The stubbornness he built up all his life, gasped, when he, the demon reincarnation, the lone wolf, Mr. me against the world, lowered his mighty pride to 'borrow' and learn the Kaio-ken technique, he inwardly cursed, he was aware he hitted a wall in growing his strength and this Kaio-ken was an opportunity to work on something new and break the limited wall that was blocking him
He needed to get stronger but that's not the reason he even considered getting a technique that was not from him or his Sire, he needed to be able to protect Gohan more effectively, that fatal weakness he had back at the Saiyan battle opened his eyes to humble himself
Therefore, he begrudgingly trained with Yamcha, Tenshinhan and Chaotzu
