Popo leaves you and Goku to your own devices, returning to whatever it is he does on the Lookout as you try to figure out how exactly you can control your energy.

Your efforts during the fight confirmed that Popo was right about you leaving a trail of energy when you move. As you dashed around the strange man, you might as well have been flashing a neon sign that said "here I am, please hit me!".

But realizing your problem is only the first step to solving it. And therein lies another problem. You don't know how to solve it.

Mr. Popo had said that controlling energy is something that takes a lot of time and effort to do. He also said it calls for a harmony of mind and body. Not too much to go on, really.

Goku seems just as confused, maybe even more so. He paces restlessly, looking lost in thought. Eventually, he gives up and takes a seat, closing his eyes.

>A. Ask what he's doing

>B. Try clearing your mind. If your mind isn't full of thoughts, maybe you can better hear your body (70)

>C. You've become pretty decent at controlling the energy in your body, maybe you can condense most of it into a single spot and keep it trapped there while you move around (80)

Goku might have the right idea. Or, maybe not, as you aren't sure what he's doing, but whatever it is gives you an idea.

You take a seat not far from him, closing your eyes and attempting to clear your mind.

At first, it doesn't go well, as various images keep popping into your head. Everything from your friends, to your parents, to King Piccolo, to thoughts of the mysterious guardian, all of these things distract you. Eventually, you do manage to drive these thoughts away, but never for long, as they keep persisting at the edge of your consciousness, eventually pushing their way back into your mind's eye.

Things aren't helped by the fact that Goku grows frustrated pretty quickly, fidgeting around and waving his tail, and sometimes outwardly groaning or complaining. It's another distraction, and it slows your progress considerably.

But, as hours pass, you seem to start getting the hang of it, pushing all thoughts from your mind for minutes at a time.

And, in those brief minutes, you're able to get a better sense of what your body is doing.You're acutely aware of each breath you take, and each sensation felt by your body. You can feel the occasional breeze on your face as clearly as if it were the wind from a hurricane, you can feel every bit of texture of the ground beneath you, and can practically see it without looking at it.

And, near the end, you can even feel the tiny sparks of energy leaving your body with each breath, something that you hadn't noticed before.

Goku's yawning shatters your focus, and you open your eyes to the sight of the setting sun. You've been up here all day, sitting and focusing.

"This is hard," Goku comments, reaching up and scratching his nose.

"You should expect everything to come easy to you," Popo advises as he tends to some of the nearby flowers.

So we shouldn't leave Kami's lookout without being prepared to beg to be let back in. Our best bet is to stay put and be trained to be earth's line of defense with Goku.

You tell Goku to focus, then immediately disregard your own advice and switch what you're doing.

You do your best to clear your mind again, finding that it takes a little while to get focused again after Goku's distraction. But, you eventually manage it, though this time you change the object of your focus.

Rather than your body itself, you focus on the energy within your body, attempting to recreate what you did in Jingle Village years ago. Back then, you were able to tap into your energy and briefly increase your speed, and presumably your strength. Doing so caused you to pass out in the snow, and you'd like to avoid those results tonight.

You manage to replicate what you did in the village, spreading your energy all over your body. A rush of adrenaline fills you, and you feel stronger than ever before. Your breathing quickens, and your body trembles as the energy begs to be directed or released.

Taking a deep breath and putting your willpower to the test, you manage to return the energy to where it came from, and your body returns to its normal feeling.

You open your eyes, finding Goku and Popo both staring at you. Goku looks surprised, and a tad confused, but you get the feeling Popo has seen something like that before.

>A. Ask Popo if you can try to defeat him again

>>48608992
You probably won't pass out, but if this deadlock doesn't get sorted out, I will go back to B

>>48608967
C.

Just to break the tie, and I'm feelin' lucky.

You've managed something big. If you can tap into your energy like that for short, intense bursts, you can give your punches and kicks an extra kick. That could be invaluable in future battles.

With one victory securely under your belt, you go back to what you were doing before, clearing your mind once again (this takes a little bit due to your success making you excited) and listen to your body once again.

Your breathing is what you focus on in particular, as you try to stop yourself from expelling energy with each breath. It's just a small amount, but it probably leaves a trail behind, and if you let energy leak out while you sit still, it's no wonder you're so easy to track while you're moving.

Controlling your breathing to that degree, however, proves too difficult for you to fully accomplish. With each breath you take, you struggle to keep your energy inside, but it just doesn't seem to work. In fact, after a while, it seems to get worse.

This doesn't seem to be working, but you get the feeling that you're on the right track. With practice, you might be able to master this. And, you did successfully learn to tap into your energy, so there's at least one victory today.

With a sigh, you open your eyes.

It's pitch black out now. You can't even see Goku anymore, let alone Popo. There might not be much more you can do as far as training until the sun comes back up.

You've done enough for one day.

Lying down, you close your eyes and let sleep take you.

When morning comes, you're awoken to the sounds of Mr. Popo humming to himself. Opening your eyes and letting out a yawn, you sit up to find him tending to the gardens, just like yesterday.

He doesn't acknowledge you in any way, just does about his business and leaves you alone to do as you wish.

A few feet away, Goku is snoring, lost in a deep sleep.

Once again, you attempt to control your breathing to the point where you waste no energy on each breath.

And, like yesterday, it proves to be a vain effort. You give it all of your focus and effort, but are simply unable to do anything to keep yourself from losing energy.

Sighing in frustration, you look over to see Popo still tending to the plants, which look quite beautiful. You suppose that the gardens in the domain of "God" should be impressive.

"Your gardens are pretty," you compliment Popo.

He smiles at you. "Thank you. It's one of my favorite parts of life up here."

>>48609737
>>48609745
At this point, you've become a bit frustrated by your failure to control your energy properly. So, you explain what you've been doing to Popo, and ask what you're doing wrong.

"You want the honest answer?" Popo asks. "You aren't doing anything wrong. You're trying to control your breathing, and keep your energy from leaving a trail, and that is one of the things you need to work on. You simply need time. You're so used to learning things quickly, that you're becoming frustrated when things don't work right away. Patience is one of the most important traits of a good warrior, and one that both you and Goku have not mastered."

As if to prove Popo's point, Goku wakes up, hopping to his feet and looking around. Seeing you and Popo, he approaches, looking up at the big man hopefully.

"Mr. Popo, can you help me train today?" he asks.

"Me?" Popo asks in turn.

Goku continues trying to talk Popo into training with him while you go and take a seat, returning to what you were doing before.

To your frustration, you simply can't do it.

You take a deep breath, and remind yourself that Popo said you just need time.

Meanwhile, the ringing of a bell begins to distract you from further attempts, and you look over to see Goku running from a blindfolded Popo.

The bell Korin gave you is attached to Goku, giving away his position to Popo quite easily, and leading to him being caught again and again.

Leaving your private training alone for the moment, you approach Goku and Popo, watching as the blindfolded man easily catches your friend time and time again.

To be fair, Goku is making far too much noise, but there's something a bit too precise about Popo's strikes against your friend, and you suspect he's using more than just his ears to keep track of Goku.

As you get closer, Popo removes his blindfold, and you take the opportunity to ask what they're doing.

"I'm supposed to move around without making any noise," Goku explains. "But that's impossible."

"Not unless you believe it is," Popo corrects. "Give me the bell."

Goku removes the bell from his person, and hands it over to Popo, who attaches it to his clothes.

"Tofoo, would you care to help me demonstrate?" Popo asks, holding out the blindfold.

I think Popo has more faith in us than he does Goku so far

Question: If Goku wanted to get laid, could he do it?

Not "A girl falls into his lap by accident", but he actively pursuing a girl, could he do it?

>>48610816
Oh yeah, he would rape her so hard Mike Tyson would think he was being rough.

>>48610764
Goku has a hard time learning concepts. He's great when it comes to sponging off techniques, and is a great fighter overall, but he doesn't understand a lot of concepts, and has difficulty learning. For one thing, he's incredibly impatient, and his incredible strength has made him used to being able to just overpower most of his opponents (the same weakness that let you defeat King Piccolo). He's used to beating enemies by being faster, stronger, or using a surprising technique. Popo's style of fighting, which relies more on moving in ways that make you harder to follow, and extensive use of spiritual energy. It will take time for Goku to adopt these concepts.

On the other hand, you have spent years training in energy manipulation, even if only in a basic sense. This gives you an edge over Goku in these stages of your training, as what Popo is asking you to so is not far off from what you've attempted on your own.

>>48610816

I always liked the idea of making Tofoo into a more Ki based fighter. Especially after we learned the Kamehameha and Bear Shout so quickly.

"Sure," you say, taking the blindfold from Popo and putting it on.

You remain completely silent, waiting for any sounds, but nothing comes. Either Popo is entirely stationary, or he's successfully moving without ringing the bell.

Testing that theory, you move toward the spot where you last saw him, but find no sign of the man.

He's moving silently, then. Maybe you can sense for his energy. You focus as hard as you can, but find no trace of him. Energy sensing is new to you, so it's possible he's leaving a trail that's too faint for you to detect, but you know better. He's moving without leaving any trail for you to follow.

>>48611366
There was none, since Piccolo ended up blowing up the tournament grounds to nothing, like his dad did in the King's Palace. So basically we have to prevent that from happening if you want another tournament.

You focus your absolute hardest, struggling to find a way to track Popo, but to no avail. You reach up and remove the blindfold.

Goku is looking at you in confusion, and you look around for Popo, finding him standing right behind you.

Popo has a smile on your face as he reaches down and removes the bell.

"Now do you see?" he asks Goku. "You need to have a body capable of moving like the breeze, upsetting nothing. With the right control of your body and energy, you can move as silently as I did."

Now Goku looks excited. "Really?"

"Yes, but it will take much time and training," Popo confirms. "Are you two willing to put in that kind of time and effort?"

>A. Yes

>B. You want to return to your friends

>C. No

>D. Something else

>>48611384
Or we let it happen and make a better tournament stage funded by- and with profits going to- Capsule Corp

>>48611442
Then we tell Chi-Chi that Krillin actually died of a heart attack because of shock when Tambourine attacked him, and therefore can't be brought back, according to Kami.
Then Tofoo on the rebound.

>>48611477
>Implying Kami and Popo can't hook you up

>>48611485
Can we get a gi with Kami's symbol on the front and the Bear symbol on the back?

>>48611290
Exactly.

>>48611423
>A. Yes
I hope our friends don't freak, but we gotta do what we gotta do

>>48611505
I don't see why not

Tofoo doesn't know that.

It's not as if tofoo has disappeared off the face of the earth while training before.

>>48611513
We need energy sonar, especially with Gero being platinum mad

>>48611527
The problem with that runs into the problem of all sonar. It's easy to trace back to the source of it.

>>48611527
>Energy Sonar

>Around Gero

>>48611485
Can we send our Dark Nimbus to pick them up?

>>48611520
We should do that, no one gets the Kami symbol on their clothes, even after training with him.

>>48611556
Kami might ask you not to do that at the tournament

>>48611547
>Use Sonar with a tiny amount of ki
>Gero absorbs it, thus making his presence known
>>48611546
That's fine with enemies that can't sense ki, and would confuse scouters. Sixteen, Cell, and Buu would buttshrek us though.

>>48611576
Maybe... we can be his Hero? King Kai five years early baby.

"Yes," you tell Popo.

"Definitely!" Goku agrees.

"That's exactly the answer I was hoping for," a new voice says.

It seems to be coming from everywhere, to the point where you can't tell if it's someone talking to you or speaking in your mind.

Goku looks around, and you find yourself joining him, trying to find the source. Of course, the two of you naturally assume that it's coming from inside the building nearby, so your eyes fall onto the entrance way.

"Is that you, Mr. Guardian?" Goku asks.

"Yes," the voice answers. "I have decided to forego Mr. Popo's test for the time being, and speak to your personally."

"This is a very rare honor," Popo explains to the two of you. "You're both quite lucky."

A hand touches the side of the entrance way to your right, and you feel your heart skip a beat as you see that it's a green hand with long fingernails.

Goku freezes up, and as the figure steps out of the shadows, he loses it.

The person who emerges has green skin, pointy ears, and a pair of antennae. He carries a staff, and is quite old in appearance. But, were it not for his age, he would be the spitting image of King Piccolo.

But, he couldn't be alive, could he? You impaled him through the chest. Then again, when you blew off his leg and lower body, he somehow regrew them, and that seemed to take a lot of energy. Maybe he healed the other damage you did to him, and it took so much energy it aged his body?

"KING PICCOLO!" Goku shouts in rage, rushing toward the figure as fast as he can.

>A. Join him in the attack

>B. Stand back

>C. Shout for him to stop

>>48611749
Ah damn, missed the part about healing aging him.

>B. Stand back

>>48611712
>C. Shout for him to stop
"Goku remember I killed Piccolo, not to mention this ones old. Unless King Piccolo can age himself, I really doubt its the same person."

>>48611712
>C. Shout for him to stop

>>48611712
>>C. Shout for him to stop
He's probably a good demon or something.

"STOP!" you shout to Goku. "Remember, I killed King Piccolo!"

"Yes, please stop!" Popo begs.

But, Goku won't listen, rushing toward the newcomer and leaping, intent on attacking with everything he has.

The newcomer lifts a hand, and Goku is thrown back, looking as if he was just punched by an invisible hand.

Goku lands in the arms of Mr. Popo, who restrains him as he tries to attack again.

"Goku, calm down!" Popo orders.

"You don't understand!" Goku insists. "It's King Piccolo!"

"No," Popo explains. "This is Kami."

Goku pauses, staring at the green man. "You're Kami?"

"Yes, I am," the green man answers. "A pleasure to meet you, Goku."

He looks over at you. "And you as well, Tofoo. I have watched both of you with great interest. I had hoped you would arrive here sooner or later, and I must say, I am pleased that Korin sent you here so quickly."

You bow before Kami, telling him that it's nice to meet him.

Popo releases Goku, who looks at the Guardian with surprise.

After a moment, he seems to remember his reason for being here.

"Mr. Kami, sir, we need your help," he explains. "We-"

"I know, I know," Kami assures him. "You wish for me to restore the Dragonballs so that your friends that were slain by King Piccolo can be restored to life. To tell you the truth, I had planned on letting the Dragonballs remain powerless."

"But why?" Goku asks worriedly.

"When I created the Dragonballs, it was with the hope that they would inspire great things from mankind," Kami answers. "Instead, all that I saw them arouse in mankind was greed, cruelty, and violence. All of the wishes that were made were selfish, or caused great harm to others. I was beginning to lose faith in mankind, but you two have proven that your species can produce good people, and that you have great potential. For this reason and another, I am willing to restore the Dragonballs. And, I will even give the Dragon, Shenron, the power to grant wishes immediately, so that your friends will not remain dead for a year, if you are willing to stay here and train for three years."

"But, our friends will worry about us," you tell Kami.

"Have no fear," he tells you. "Shenron will inform them of whereabouts when they summon him. And you will be able to see them in three year's time."

"Okay!" Goku says. "It'll be great being trained by someone as strong as you."

Kami offers Goku a smile. "Glad to hear it. And what of you, Tofoo?"

You still have a few questions.

"Why do you want us to train?" you ask.

Kami closes his eyes, and lets out a weary sigh. "When King Piccolo was freed from his imprisonment, I had feared it would be the end of humanity. I thought none would have the strength to stand against him. But, you and Goku each faced him, and fared far better than any before you. Tofoo, you managed what I thought impossible for a human, and took King Piccolo's life."

His eyes open. "However, King Piccolo has not allowed death to stop him. In his final moments, he produced the means to ensure his dark legacy would endure; a reincarnation of his power, a son. Even now, Piccolo's foul spawn walks the Earth beneath us, gathering his strength to continue his father's work. In three year's time, he will seek you out in order to exact his revenge. I want you to train here, so that when the time comes, you can destroy him once and for all."

"Why don't we go after him now?" Goku asks. "Tofoo beat Piccolo once, and if we work together, it shouldn't be hard."

"Were it only that simple," Kami laments. "But Piccolo's child not only inherited his father's power, but his memories. Piccolo may have always been arrogant, but he learns from his mistakes. Believe when I tell you that he will see to it that you do not find him before he is ready."

"Why do you look so much like him?" you ask.

"Because Piccolo and I were once two halves of the same being," Kami answers.

"What do you mean?" Goku asks him.

"Guardians of this world are mortal," Kami explains. "We are born, we live, and we die. When I sensed that the previous guardian was nearing the end of his life, I traveled here, convinced that I was destined to succeed him. But, no matter how hard I tried, I could not convince him to name me as his successor."

He looks down. "He sensed something in me that I was not willing to admit was there. Deep inside there was a darkness, and admittedly, the power that came with the position of Guardian was part of the reason I had craved the title. But a Guardian must be pure of motives, and use his position selflessly. In order to assure I was worthy, I spent years training myself, until I finally found a way to dispel the evil in my heart. That evil took shape, becoming the being known as Piccolo. He fled this place, and traveled to the world below, where he tormented mankind. I was unable to stop him due to a technicality, so I was forced to watch his atrocities from here."

"What do you mean a "technicality"?" Goku asks, struggling to pronounce the word.

"A being cannot strangle itself," Kami answers. "I needed someone else to slay Piccolo. A human found a way to seal him away, and I had hoped that would be the end of it. When he returned, I saw no hope for your kind."

"Was there anyone else back then that could have done it?" you ask. "You weren't the only one trying to become Guardian, were you?"

"No, I was not," Kami confirms. "Another person , a being named Garlic also sought the position. But Garlic possessed a far darker heart than mine, and did nothing to correct that. I was named Guardian, and Garlic left this world not long after."

"How long have you been Guardian?" you ask.

"Around three hundred years," Kami answers.

"Wow, that's a long time," Goku tells him.

"So, will you two stay and train?" Kami asks.

"Definitely!" Goku says excitedly.

"I will, but I want a day to visit my friends and explain things first," you tell Kami.

"Tofoo, I can appreciate your concern for your friends, but I assure you, Shenron will tell them everything," Kami says to you. "You will see them in three years, but in the meantime we need every possible moment we can get to prepare you for the confrontation with Piccolo. No matter how your previous battle played out, the one to come will be a thousand times more dangerous, when Piccolo makes his return he will possess more skill and power than he could have dreamed of in his previous incarnation. We do not have the time for you to leave here."

Feelings>Fate of the world
This dragonball, aka the show where feelings actually cause more damage when they are added with attacks.

>>48613154
>Pretty true, or one that knows how to hunt
I feel like that would make their kid dumb as a post

>>48613154
>implying that 1/20 of a single point in our powerlevel that we would gain in 2 hours of training will decide the fate of the world

>>48613188
>Knowing how to hunt

>Means you're uneducated

Making some assumptions, there

>>48613184
Feelings also screw the pooch repeatedly.
>Vegeta vs Perfect Cell
>SSJ2 Gohan vs Cell
>Majin Vegeta's entire existence
>Tien vs Nappa
>Piccolo vs Nappa
>I'm sure there are more, but five is a good number

Knowing SOM he'll make it come into play to spite us.

"Well you got your neck snapped, too bad you weren't there for the 2 hour 'not getting your neck snapped' course we held while you were gone."

>Fate of the world>feelings
I play an instrument, soccer, and have been studying kendo for nine years. Take it from me, one week would make little difference for any of those, forget about a day. That's just not how it works.

The difference in mindset however would be huge.

"Just give me two hours," you plead. "When I get back, I'll train extra hard. I promise."

Kami stares at you, a hard expression on his face.

"Being trained by Kami is a colossal honor," Popo tells you. "You should feel privileged, not make demands of him!"

"Relax, Mr. Popo," Kami says, letting out a sigh. and sounding very displeased. "Very well, Tofoo. You have two hours, and not a minute more."

>A. Thank him

>B. Ask Goku if he wants to come

>C. Nevermind, you don't need two hours

>D. Nevermind, you don't want to train here

>E. Something else

>>48613242
If we can just avoid 'going full saiyan' then we avoid most of those

>>48613281
>A. Thank him
>B. Ask Goku if he wants to come
Grab Chichi, call Dark Nimbus and head to Kami House

>>48613281
>A. Thank him
>E. Something else
Not a minute more? Run to the edge of the lookout and dive off of it. Call Black Nimbus and hope it doesn't go horribly

>A. Thank him

>Those C and D votes

SOM that is what we call Double Jeopardy. Do not do that as a QM. It only causes problems. Tofoo has already made the conditions and Kami agreed. Don't give options to randomly back out like a schizophrenic lest you want Kaguya again.

>>48613281
>>A. Thank him
You goddamn cunts. Jesus.

If you buttpirates make us late coming back I will find you and cut your internet cables

>>48613281
>A. Thank him
>E. Apologize, but tell him that you can't just disappear from your friends for three years. Again.

>>48613314
Okay, fair enough

>>48613281
>A.
"I do feel privileged, Kami. And I know this is a lot to ask from you, but I feel honored that you allow it. I'll be back before you know it!"

>>48613333
>Just disappearing

>They get a message from the Eternal Dragon saying "God has Goku and Tofoo training for something important, they'll be back in three years"

>>48613299
Yeah we need to grab Chichi, hope she got the water.

>>48613357
Fair enough. But I didn't vote to leave in the first place. It ain't me.

>>48613357
Come on SOM. Do you have such little interactions with people that you don't realize the difference between a voice mail and actually talking to someone face to face?

>>48613392
I do realize the difference, but it is different from just disappearing. Plus, you know, God is telling you you have to do something important and that you need to spend every waking moment on it

But, whatever, you guys voted on what you voted on

Like I said the last time, we don't have a god, just goddesses.

>>48613392
A voicemail isn't analogous to a mystical, wish-granting dragon sent by god.

>>48613154
>I always interpreted that as her being intune with her pet
In the episode focused on Goku's Ki sensing lessons? I doubt it's just that.

>>48613435
It's pretty close

>>48613433
Chi-Chi is spoken for and we're 20+ years older than Videl.
And there's only one God, who's name is Kaioshin

>>48613315
"Thank you," you say to Kami.

"Goku, will you be going with him?" Kami asks.

Your friend thinks about it for a moment. "Nah, I want to get started right away!"

Kami smiles. "Very well then, Mr. Popo, I will leave this young man in your care. Tofoo will return within the next two hours, at which point I wish for you to train him as well."

"Yes, Kami," Popo says.

With that settled, you turn and run to the edge of the Lookout, jumping right off and yelling at the top of your lungs.

"DARK NIMBUS!"

The black cloud shoots up toward you, catching you as you fall and leading you down toward Korin Tower.

You have two hours to spare. Make them count.

>End Updates

That's all for tonight, anons, I hope you all had fun

Follow me @qmdralo to see when new threads are up

As always, I'll stick around for a bit

>>48613435
Shenron can be kind of a dick, anon.

>>48613414
Not "God": a Guardian. And an alien at that, with an alien mindset to match.

>>48613465
You misspelled Lazuli

I'm glad to see we are going to train with Kami, but taking also letting our friends know what is going on.

>>48613468
Chichi get the water yet?

>>48613477
If his creator tells him to do something, he will do it

>>48613497
They would have known anyway

>>48613501
Nope, but she's determined

>>48613491
Racist

>>48613468
Whats going on Yaji's end?

Did Suno know who the person fighting King Piccolo was from the radio, she was near the King's Palace in that hospital tending to the wounded.

>>48613518
If the dragonballs are inactive because the creator has been killed do Shenron/Porunga die, or are they just consigned to wherever the live normally?

First stop should be Korin for a watch, so IC we know how much time we have. After that Kame House if it is under an hour away.

Oh god, we are more than a two hour round trip from our friends, we just got hoodwinked.

>>48613530
She assumed it was either you or Goku

Yajirobe is almost to East City

>>48613518
So we gonna meet a lonely redhead mountain girl in a couple threads?

>>48613547
It's called practice for Tofoo if we are the ones to die during Raditz fight and have to reach our friends in time when we are revived.

>>48613543
Well, Piccolo flat-out killed Shenron

But...I don't know what happens with that when the creator dies

>>48613562
You might have different training than Goku

>>48613547
Oh yeah

>>48613588
>Oh yeah
Don't be spiteful. Just let us talk to our friends real quick and come back so we can move on without drama.

>>48613588
>You might have different training than Goku
You're REALLY that scared of the two monkey eugenics trolls?

>>48613588
What's the earliest we can collect the Super Dragon Balls and how does trans-Universal travel work?
