Chapter 3

Training and Hatching

On Kami's Lookout

Kami stood on top of his lookout, looking out over the Earth. It had been several hours since Piccolo had spit out his egg and Kami could sense he had not move from the room in which he had set the egg. Night had fallen on the lookout, but there was no time to rest for Kami, he was currently thinking about the future. More specifically, he was thinking about the Earths safety in the future. As it stood now, once the rest of the Z fighters were revived, the Earth would have quite a few able body warriors to defend it.

But what about the future, Kami thought to himself. While most of the Z-fighters would be able to fight for a good to two maybe even three more decades, what after that? While Gohan and Piccolo's son would be a good core group for the future defenders of Earth, more would be needed. So at the moment Kami stood at the edge of his lookout, scan the Earth itself to see if there was anyone in the next generation with potential to be a future defender of Earth. So far he had only managed to find one who fit the criteria he was looking for, that being young, pure hearted, and possessing the potential to defend Earth. He was about to give when his finally tuned sense suddenly focused on something. Yes another individual with potential to aid the Z-fighters. Kami sighed; well two are better than nothing.

With that, Kami began to draw on a power deep from within himself. What Piccolo probably did not realize was that when they had destroy the Black Star Dragonballs, they had release the energy that they had stored in the Dragonballs and absorbed it back into themselves. For someone of Piccolo's strength it had probably only been slightly refreshing, but it had temporarily super charged Kami. Piccolo had unknowingly used all of the extra energy in the creation of his son. Kami however was using the energy he absorbed now. He used it to give his blessing to the two he had sensed. The same blessing that he had given Gohan when he was first born and would most likely give Piccolo's son when he hatched. Energy began swirl around him creating a bright white aura.

"Megumi no Seishou," Kami said and in a brief flash of light the energy was gone as if it had never been there at all. Kami looked down at Earth and smiled already feeling better about the future of the Earth.

Three Months Later

Near Mount Poaz

It was sunny and peaceful in the valley near the Mount Poaz. The leaves in the tree were being blow by a gentle breeze and the sky was a beautiful shade of blue. It was a place where you would not expect to find one of the most powerful being on earth, but this was indeed the case. Near the edge of a valley, beside a waterfall, a figure flowed.

Surrounded by a white aura, Son Gohan was truly a sight to behold. He was dressed in dark blue gi with a white sash. The style was the same as his mentor Piccolo. He had also started to wear weighted training cloths. However, rather than a weighted undershirt like his father or a weight cloak like Piccolo, he decided to use a more of a weight trench coat, very similar to the one worn by the Nail on planet Namek. It was the same white color as his sash, had no sleeves, and had Piccolo symbol on the back. It weighted around five hundred pounds. He had made the coat and training gi himself using the Bushitsu Shyutsu Gen Majyutsu.

As he floated there, sweat was running down his face because of the advanced kata he had just completed. Gohan still could not believe his mother had allowed him to continue training after returning from Namek, even if it had taken a lot of talking and arguing on Gohan's part. Eventually a compromise was worked out. He would study in the morning till lunch and train from lunch till dinner. It was not perfect but it was better than nothing. Gohan, after catching his breath, look up into the sky. Judging by the sun he had about hour left before dinner.

He decided to use one of the various training techniques that Piccolo taught him, meditation. As he descended from the sky, he came to a stop roughly two feet off the ground. He then crossed his legs and assume Piccolo's classic meditation form (floating above the ground, arms and legs crossed, eye closed, head bowed). As he closed his eyes he began to calm his mind down and draw on his ki. As he does this, the world around him faded away. Slowly even the sound of the raging waterfall faded as he dive deeper and deeper into his own mind to try and find the hidden power that he could only seem to use when he was truly enrage. As Gohan dove deeper and deeper into his mind, he could feel himself approach some type of barrier within his own mind. As Gohan begins to examine the barrier, he feels something behind it, something that was wild and powerful.

Maybe this is my hidden power, Gohan thought to himself. Using some of the mental exercise Piccolo had taught him, he tries to slowly bring down the barrier around this hidden part of his mind. As he does, he can feel whatever was behind the barrier begun to stir. As he continued to work on the barrier, he began to realize that he was making very little head way. Every time he got some of the barrier down it just seemed to repair itself. After a while, Gohan just gave up and decided to head home.

"Well," Gohan said to himself, "at least now I know where to look now." As he walked back home, he had no way of knowing that some small part of the barrier remained down. Not very much, but some and over the coming months, the barrier would continue to shrink as he would occasionally repeat his attempt to draw out more of his hidden power.

Other world

As training end for Gohan, in another realm where time didn't really have much of a meaning, training continued. On a small planet at the end of Snake Way, a battle royal was taking place. Krillin, Yamacha, and Tien were all going at each other with everything they had. When Krillin had arrived at the small planet four months ago, he had been surprised at how strong his friends had gotten. Back then Yamacha and Tien had been quite a bit stronger than he was, and Chaozu was not too far behind him. But that had changed rapidly over the past three months. The fight with Frieza had been a huge wake up call for Krillin. After swapping out his Saiyan Armor from Namek for his trade mark orange gi, he began push himself twice as hard as the others had been. In a matter three month, Krillin had managed to surpassed Yamacha and become equals with Tien.

At the moment all three were trying there hardest to win the three way spar. Off to the side, Chaozu was meditating to increase his psychic abilities. King Kai had turned out to be a huge help for Chaozu. As it turned out, King Kai possessed an incredible gift for both telepathy and telekinetic. Speaking of King Kai, the blue skinned kai was currently watching all of his students as they trained. He couldn't help but smile at thought of how powerful his students had become over the past couple of months. He was especially surprise at how far Krillin had come not only catching up to his friends in power, but learning the one technique that only one other student had ever learned, the Genki Dama.

Yes, Krillin had learned King Kai's greatest technique, whereas Tien and Yamacha could not. King Kai theorized that Krillin training as a monk in his younger days had aided the short warrior in being able to learn the proper way to channel the reiki properly to form the Genki Dama.

As the three ways battle continued, King Kai decided it was time to check and see just how far his student had come over the time they had been training with him. Taking a deep breath, King Kai yelled, "Time Out!"

The reaction was instant. Chaozu opened his eyes and looked at his blue sensei. Krillin, Yamacha and Tien's reactions were all the same. They all froze mid spar which cause King Kai to chuckle slightly since Tien had his fist pushing against Yamacha's face and Krillin foot was just inches away from hit Tien in the stomach. Over all the sight before him was quite funny from his prospective. The three fighters pull themselves together and walked over to the blue skinned Kai.

"What the deal, King Kai?" asked Yamacha.

"I think it about time to see how much progress you four have made with your training," replied the blue Kai. With that being said, the four humans lined up and prepared to power-up to full power.

"Okay you four, let's start out with just your base powers first."

The four humans nodded to King Kai, then all four clenched there fists and began to power-up. The first to reach his full base power was Chaozu, followed by Yamacha, and then Krillin and Tien. King Kai smiled at all of them, proud of the improvement that they had all made.

"Okay, guys now try it with your maximum Kaioken."

With a nod all four of the fighters were surrounded with a red aura. As each reached there maximum the planet itself was shaking because of there combined power. But through it all King Kai could not seem to remove the smile from his face.

Kami's Lookout

Deep inside of Kami's Lookout, Piccolo sitting cross legged mediating in from of his egg. It was not the same egg he had spit out three months ago. The egg was now roughly two and a half feet tall and a foot and a half wide.

Over the course of three months, Piccolo had been giving the egg infusions of his ki every couple of days. Though he was not certain, Piccolo believe the Kami also infused some of his ki into the egg, but he decided to ignore it, knowing that it would not cause any harm to the egg. Piccolo glanced up at the egg and thought: It won't be long now.

Even as this thought passed through Piccolo's head, the egg began to crack. Piccolo was on his feet in an instant staring at the egg as the crack continued to spread and light began to shoot out of the cracks in the egg. When the crack had spread across the full length of the egg, the shell suddenly shattered and was accompanied by a flash of light.

As the light faded, Piccolo got his first good look at his child. The child looked like a mini Piccolo. He was crouched down his head resting on his knees with his eye closed. Suddenly his eyes shot open, revealing the same coal black as Piccolo. Slowly, the newborn Namekian stood up. At full height, he was only slightly shorter than Gohan. He looked around in confusion for a few second before his eyes locked on Piccolo. He took his first few steps toward Piccolo stopping about three feet from him. He looked at Piccolo for a second before understanding appeared on his face. He then said the word that brought a true smile to Piccolo's gruff face.

"Father…"

Piccolo's response was just as short and to the point.

"Crews…my son."

Author Note: I hope you guy like the changes and addition that I made to this chapter. I have decided that I will make my Kami more proactive. He is working more behind the scenes to protect Earth. So how do you like my foreshadowing in this chapter, both with the two individuals that received Kami's Blessing and with Gohan hidden power. So who do you guys think that the individuals will be who received Kami's blessing (here is a hint: one of them is from the series and the other is an original character as of now)? Another question is what is the power that Gohan is tapping into? Below is a list of the techniques used in this story so far as well as the power levels of everyone up until now. Also thanks to everybody who has read this and reviewed it.

Techniques/Skill list:

Bushitsu Shyutsu Gen Majyutsu: I don't know the exact translation, but it is basically the materialization technique that Piccolo uses to make stuff out of thin air. It is also used by the Kais. In this chapter, Gohan used it because Piccolo taught him how.

Genki Dama: Also known as the Spirit Bomb. This is Goku's ultimate technique (Now Krillin's as well), absorbing energy from nature, other living beings, and even stars. This move has been used several times with varying degrees of success.

Kaioken: A special technique developed by King Kai. It multiplies the user's strength by various degrees. It increase varies.

Kaioken = 1.5 times normal power

Double = 2 times normal power

Triple = 3 times normal power

And so and so forth until a person reaches Kaioken times 20 at which point, the user body can not take anymore no many how much training is done. Even when used below 20 times normal, the technique puts incredible strain on the user's body. If used improperly, it can cause more damage to the user body than the opponent that they are fighting.

Original Technique/Skill list:

Megumi no Seishou (Blessing of Spirit): Technique used by Kami and some of the previous Gods of Earth. It enables Kami to increase the potential of other though the use of slightly manipulating the ki of an individual. It is similar to what Guru did to Krillin and Gohan but with a slight difference. Guru bought out hidden power that Krillin and Gohan already had while Kami's technique makes it easier for a person to get stronger and increase their maximum potential. The technique can also not be used on someone over the age of eight.

Other term:

Reiki: spiritual energy used to form the Genki Dama. Also comely used by monk and priest to ward off demons.
