Zuke still rembered what he'd said to Garou when he brought him to Planet Saiya—he said if Garou could defeat any Saiyan, he'd help Garou awaken a Stand.
At that ti, Garou had agreed full of hope, thinking he could use the Stand to increase his strength and then return ho in glory.
As a result, after all this ti of struggling, Garou had completely abandoned his initial goal and wasn't thinking about defeating Saiyans or obtaining any Stand anymore.
Even with his current power, he should be able to defeat many young Saiyans—the energy Zuke had given him had still helped him improve quite a bit.
"Well, your answer really was beyond my expectations."
Zuke sighed. He had originally thought that when he proposed sending Garou ho, Garou would be very happy—but he didn't expect him to actually want to stay on Planet Saiya.
However, unfortunately, facing Garou's serious expression, Zuke only used a sowhat flat tone to shatter his fantasy:
"Although you seem to still want to stay on Planet Saiya, your opinion actually doesn't matter... After waiting a bit longer, I'm still going to send you back."
As for how long this "wait a bit longer" specifically was... it would depend on what ti flow ratio the Dragon Ball world had this ti. Zuke couldn't say for sure either.
Maybe two or three days, maybe a week, possibly even a month later.
Seeing the disappointed expression on Garou's face, Zuke also calmly reached out his hand and drew over the turtle shell that had been placed in the corner of the room:
"It's not like I'm sending you back imdiately. You can still stay on Planet Saiya for several days. If you're lucky, staying for a month isn't impossible."
"Is... is that so?"
Garou took the turtle shell Zuke tossed over, skillfully strapping it onto his back while nodding and showing a relieved expression.
He didn't know whether he felt relieved because Zuke said he could still stay on Planet Saiya for a while, or because he had put on the familiar turtle shell.
After putting on the turtle shell, Garou felt his body beco heavy again—after Garou's strength had greatly improved, Zuke had also further adjusted the turtle shell's gravity.
After all, gravity training remained effective on Kakarot and Vegeta even in the late Dragon Ball period. Garou was still far from the day when he'd outgrow gravity training.
"By the way, there's one more thing, Lord Zuke."
The obedient Garou who had put on the turtle shell got down from the bed and was just about to go out to continue training according to the Turtle School thod when he suddenly seed to rember sothing and stopped in his tracks.
He turned to Zuke and asked:
"That brat nad Raditz found out you taught the Kahaha, and he's been pestering these past few days to teach him too... Can I pass it on to him?"
"Raditz?"
Zuke paused. Seeing the pleading look on Garou's face, he couldn't help finding it sowhat amusing.
In the original work and reboot, Garou had special care for a brat called Tareo, fighting and struggling multiple tis for that kid's sake.
In the original work, this plot probably was ant to show Garou's humanity, but it also showed that Garou actually had a bit of a childish side and easily got along with little brats.
This ti, being brought to Planet Saiya by Zuke, Garou's tendency to get along with little boys seed unchanged and had still co into play.
It's just that this ti, the brat Garou got along with was Raditz, who in terms of strength was even a bit stronger than Garou... of course, after Garou powered up, that was debatable now.
As for Garou wanting to teach Raditz the Kahaha...
"No problem, go ahead and teach him."
Zuke nodded, his face showing a playful smile.
Speaking of representative figures who use the Kahaha, that would undoubtedly be Kakarot—the protagonist of Dragon Ball, Raditz's brother who was still in an incubation pod.
Right now, Kakarot still didn't have combat ability, so having Kakarot's brother Raditz learn the Kahaha ahead of ti was quite an interesting thing.
Imagining Raditz using the Kahaha... it felt sowhat like a temporal dislocation.
"Good! Thank you, Lord Zuke!"
Hearing this, Garou's expression imdiately brightened considerably. He then happily left the room, looking like he was probably going to find Raditz.
Who knew if by tomorrow when Zuke ca again, Raditz would have already learned the Kahaha from Garou...
After leaving the Dragon Ball world, Zuke once again entered the Fate/Stay Night mission world.
It had already been two days since Reines had called Waver over. He wondered how Waver's research on manufacturing the Lesser Grail was progressing.
After entering the mission world, Zuke appeared in Reines's base room as usual—though not in the residence's hall, but in Reines's bedroom.
After opening his eyes, Zuke looked at the room's condition, then imdiately saw the now-empty bed.
He rembered that when he left here yesterday, Sakura Matou was lying on the bed in a coma—and now Sakura Matou was no longer on the bed, which ant...
"Looks like Sakura's Stand has awakened."
Zuke touched his chin, thoughtfully.
He was quite curious about what ability Sakura Matou's Stand was, since Sakura Matou's Stand aptitude was induced by his "Black Bird's" feather.
This kind of acquired Stand aptitude—he wondered if it would have any difference from other Stand users' natural aptitude. He was quite interested to know.
However, when Zuke walked out of the room and casually sensed the "ki" within the house, he was quite surprised to discover that Reines and Sakura Matou both didn't seem to be inside.
No wonder even though Zuke had appeared in the house, Reines still hadn't rushed over imdiately. It turned out she simply wasn't ho.
However, Waver in the hall was still there, though his state was also sowhat strange.
He was sitting on the sofa with a cigar in his mouth, then staring seriously at another cigar placed on the coffee table.
That cigar seed to have undergone special treatnt. Its surface even emanated a golden luster, looking quite expensive.
Rather than being like a consumable for smoking, it was more like so kind of luxury item that should be placed on a display rack.
"Hmm? Mr. Zuke, you're here?"
Waver also seed to hear footsteps from behind—Zuke hadn't activated "ki concealnt" and hadn't deliberately hidden his footsteps, so Waver could naturally notice.
He smiled bitterly as he turned to look at Zuke:
"But you've co at just the right ti. There's sothing I need to tell you."
To be continued…
