Unknowingly, three months quietly passed.
April 17, Age 753. Only 20 days remained until the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament.
With the aid of the training cheat device, the Super Gravity Chamber, Goku's potential was unleashed. Coupled with various methods and support items, his power level surged rapidly from 800, and today, it finally broke through to 8,000.
This level of strength was the same base power level he had in the original work when battling against Nappa and Vegeta. Though weaker in many aspects, the number has been achieved.
But a power level of 8,000 was still far from the goal he had set three months ago.
His goal was to break through to 100,000, and then seek Talot's guidance in learning Instant Transmission!
At least, in the short term, it was impossible to achieve.
The reason Talot required his power level to reach 100,000 before teaching him the technique was to give him a solid goal, and also to make him understand that only through his own effort could he gain what he desired.
Looking back at three months of harsh training.
Compared to the Goku in the original work when he went to Planet Namek as an adult, the gap was still huge.
After all, when heading to Planet Namek, his base power level was at least over ten thousand. It would be an underestimation of Goku's potential if recovering from such severe injuries didn't increase his power level by 15,000 to 20,000, and with even greater pressure, he managed to break through to 90,000 power level in just six days.
Now he was still young and lacked that kind of foundation. Even though he could already move freely under 100 times gravity, the difference was still enormous.
Of course, if one calculated purely in terms of multiplier, the current improvement was even more astonishing; it just took longer to achieve.
To Goku, in just three months and seven days, to see his strength rise to this level felt like a dream.
Eager to push himself further, he constantly thought about training under even higher gravity, but Talot and the other two stopped him.
With Goku's current strength, continuing higher gravity training would actually be counterproductive.
Three months was already enough. Besides, he was still in a growing stage, and balancing rest with training was crucial.
Moreover, his foundation was solid. From here on, Goku needed to learn something even more important.
The time had come. Talot and the others led Goku to the vast plain behind the estate.
This land was something Bulma and Dr. Brief had purchased over the past two years, adding the entire area behind the estate into its grounds.
"Kakarot, first, congratulations on completing second stage training. Your power level has reached 8,000. But the next stage of training will be much harder, so you must prepare yourself mentally!" As his words fell, Talot's eyes flashed with sternness, while Raditz and Salari looked equally serious.
At first, they had been reluctant. Even though Kakarot was family, he was still young. Was it really appropriate to teach him the method of transforming into a Super Saiyan now?
But Talot had insisted again and again, believing that in the future, becoming a Super Saiyan would be the norm, something every Saiyan could do. So, they had no choice but to follow his plan.
Hearing Talot's words, Goku nodded heavily.
Seeing his earnest expression, Talot felt gratified and began to recount the legend of the Super Saiyan.
He had already told Goku about it more than three months ago, but now he was speaking of it formally.
"So, the next thing I'll be training in… is how to become a Super Saiyan?" Goku seemed to have sensed something, and after hearing Talot speak of the legend, he immediately understood the training that lay ahead.
Hearing Goku's question, Talot was actually quite shocked.
It was often said that the Goku of the original work was silly and naïve, but in truth, he only had a pure heart. He was never stupid.
Talot answered him with action, mobilizing the S-cells within his body and activating the Super Saiyan energy pool.
His aura surged, black hair moving without wind. Then, with the explosive burst of golden aura, his hair transformed into gold, and his pupils shifted to emerald green.
Super Saiyan!
"This… is a Super Saiyan!"
As the words fell, Talot simply fixed his gaze on Goku, letting him feel it more directly.
Witnessing Talot's transformation and change with his own eyes, Goku was already dumbfounded, his mouth hanging wide open.
The heavy oppression rushed straight at him, almost suffocating him.
But aside from the crushing pressure, a special feeling ignited within Goku's heart.
He desperately wanted to become like this too…to become this powerful.
Using his own aura to resist Talot's overwhelming pressure, Goku knew his strength was worlds apart from Brother Talot.
At that moment, Raditz and Salari also released their Super Saiyan energy, transforming into Super Saiyan.
With three Super Saiyans appearing at once, even though they restrained the majority of their pressure, it was still far more than the current Goku could withstand. Just a single glance nearly forced him to his knees.
Their purpose already achieved, Talot and the others released their Super Saiyan forms at the exact instant Goku was about to collapse for real.
It had to be said, Goku's willpower was truly astonishing.
Only after a long while did Goku finally recover, his clothes already soaked through with dense sweat.
When he came to, there wasn't a trace of fear on his face. Instead, what overflowed was sheer excitement, his heart filled with yearning.
Beyond the goal of breaking past 100,000 in power level, he now had a new one.
That was….Super Saiyan!
