The endless rotation of the spacetime vortex compressed tens of millions of years of history in an instant, as if passing through a thin piece of paper.
Raditz didn't expect that a mission would allow him to meet Bardock - quite a reward indeed.
For Bardock, Raditz was full of respect. The man who fought Frieza to the last moment, still fighting to the point of death in despair, made people's blood boil when thinking about it. One word: magnificent.
The scar on Bardock's face showed the strength of a man, and his brows were full of determination. He was too similar to Kakarot... If Kakarot hadn't hit his head when he was young, he should be similar to Bardock - brave and strong but arrogant and conceited, cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and a little tsundere.
Raditz thought about it and couldn't help laughing.
Thinking of Bardock's meaningful look at the end, it seemed Bardock had understood everything. Maybe he could foresee the future and knew that the legend of Saiyans would continue.
Thoughts flickered like sparks. In an instant, bright light appeared in the archives, and Raditz and the Xeno Patrolman returned to reality along the spacetime vortex. The Supreme Kai of Time was already waiting at the side, looking at them with a smile.
The tea on the table was still warm, steaming.
"Amazing! You guys managed to do it so quickly!" Chronoa yelled excitedly. The scroll in her hand had returned to its original state, and the demonic energy had dissipated.
"It's Mr. Raditz's credit."
Unexpectedly, the Xeno Patrolman took the initiative to speak for Raditz, and his address had changed to "Mr." He was completely overwhelmed by Raditz's formidable strength and even wanted to withdraw his initial doubts.
Chronoa rolled her eyes and suddenly said with a smile: "Since the task has been completed, then merits and demerits are balanced. Raditz, I won't care about your fault of traveling through time and space this time." She shook the scroll in her hand, agilely blinking at Raditz. "But, are you interested in being a Time Patroller?"
Seeing that Raditz solved her problems in minutes, she developed a talent appreciation and immediately wanted to recruit Raditz into her Time Patrol team. Wouldn't it be much easier to work in the future with such an assistant?
But Raditz was eager to avoid it: "No, no, no, I'm already an apprentice Supreme Kai, so I can't commit to you." Let him manage archives here every day, then do various tasks restoring history? It would be better to go back and play cards with the Supreme Kai and Kibito.
"Oh, I actually forgot this." Chronoa frowned. "Since there's no other way, you can take this - the badge that can contact me, the mark of Conton City. If I have a problem, or you need help, get in touch."
She gave him a playful "V" badge, a thin layer of metal as delicate as a work of art. Raditz accepted the badge. Although he didn't want to become a Time Patroller, he knew there were many things of great value here, and maybe he would really need the Supreme Kai of Time's help in the future.
After saying goodbye, Chronoa personally opened a passage for Raditz to return to the original world. He could travel back smoothly as long as he used the Time Ring.
Soon, the Time Ring sensed the call of energy, and a slender light soaring to the sky rose. Raditz disappeared instantly in the light.
Xeno Trunks took a step forward, his clear eyes fixed on the void for a long time. He didn't even hear the Supreme Kai of Time calling him.
...
Sacred World of the Kai.
Kibito and the Supreme Kai were waiting in front of the pavilion for Raditz to return. They were a little bored waiting, so they discussed the race of Saiyans.
"Since Raditz became an apprentice Supreme Kai, I've investigated some information about Saiyans. Er... the evaluation isn't very good." Kibito told all the information he'd obtained, talking about the history from many years ago and the unbearable behavior of Saiyans in recent centuries.
The Supreme Kai shook his head: "What you said is outdated. The Saiyans' planet has been destroyed, and only a few survived. Their character seems to have improved a lot, and I think Raditz is trustworthy. You should know about the Demon Realm invasion in the West Galaxy, right? It was Raditz who solved it."
"Really? I haven't paid attention to it..."
"The strong fighting power of Saiyans surprised me. Wouldn't it be the best if they had justice in their hearts? Besides Raditz, a Saiyan named Son Goku grew up on Earth and has saved Earth's crises many times..."
Kibito didn't speak but felt that the Supreme Kai paid too much attention to mortals, especially Saiyans. Little did he know, he himself had also paid considerable attention to Saiyans without realizing it.
After being defeated by Raditz, his view of mortals changed a lot, but he always felt uneasy.
"Saiyans... their violent character is still difficult to change."
"Hey, Kibito, it's not a good habit to speak ill of people behind their backs!" Raditz suddenly appeared, his voice coming from behind faintly, and Kibito shivered in fright.
He turned his head immediately, only to see Raditz standing behind him and looking at him with a smile. The more Raditz smiled, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't speak for a while, his face flushing like a child exposed for bad behavior.
The Supreme Kai came up to smooth things over: "Kibito was just talking about Saiyan history. Haha, Raditz, did you have any gains in parallel time and space?"
"I met the Supreme Kai of Time, and with her help, I saw a little shadow of the Demon Realm's actions. They tried to use distorted time to obtain energy, but their relationship with Babidi is unknown."
"Chronoa? She should be in Conton City. How could she interfere with you? Could it be because of the Time Ring?" The Supreme Kai was greatly surprised. Time belonged to two different systems, and he couldn't explain many problems. "But I finally know something about the Demon Realm. Thank you for your hard work. I'll contact Chronoa."
Raditz returned the Time Ring and Potara earrings to the Supreme Kai and said hello at the same time: "Then I'll take my leave first."
"Aren't you going to stay here for a while?"
"It suddenly occurred to me that there's something I must do." Raditz waved and teleported away.
This was probably the most casual apprentice Supreme Kai, right? Kibito, a little expert in maintaining divine authority, couldn't help mumbling. Seeing the Supreme Kai next to him raise his hand, he also smiled awkwardly.
Raditz had to do this. The messed-up timeline made him understand that the future boy wouldn't appear, but the androids wouldn't disappear with him - they would still appear. To avoid any trouble, he decided to smash Dr. Gero's lair directly, strangling the incomplete androids in the cradle.
The androids were no longer considered strong enemies to them - there was no need to keep them specially. Uh... for special reasons, Android 18 could be kept for a while.
