9 Deep Regret And Self-Blame

King Kai had taken another look and found out that the Saiyans were on their way to Planet Kawada. From the looks of it, even if the Saiyans were to immediately set off to Earth after they finish taking over Planet Kawada, it would take them at least 2 years. And from their current behavior, it did not seem like they were planning on going to Earth anytime soon. As such, a conservative estimate would be that they had atleast 3 years if not more until the Saiyans could potentially arrive.

They did not know the reason why the Saiyans were not going to Earth, but everyone was happy with the outcome.

"It probably is because Vegeta seems me as trash and has no regard for me at all... Without their knowledge of dragon balls, he has no motivation at all to come over to Earth... Well, he should still come sooner or later. Then, because I got rid of the transmitter in the scouter and have disconnected it from my former teammates, neither Vegeta nor Frieza will have learned of the dragon balls. Does that mean we won't have much more danger ahead? Although both Earth and Planet Namek are in Frieza Force's database, only Earth have prospects to takeover, Planet Namek's climate is too harsh and they won't have any interest in that planet, unless they happen to find information about the dragon balls. But that seems unlikely." Raditz pondered in his mind.

"Then I only, no that means we only need to watch out for Vegeta, he's more likely to take the mission to take over Earth than the others in Frieza Force. After Namek Saga is Frieza Saga, so I can kind of skip them...? After that is Android Saga. But they might be weaker since there won't be any Frieza or King Cold arriving on Earth. Hm... Does that mean Cell Saga is going to be weaker? But Cell will probably still arrive from a parallel timeline. I'm not sure if the future timeline with... Uh... Trunks? I'm not even sure what will happen with Nappa and Vegeta now with the current events flowing in this direction. This should be the main timeline, only when the time machine travels back in time will a new timeline be created. That means Future Trunks could potentially not exist? Well there might not be any alternative timelines if I can manage this well... Since I know what will happen, I can be prepared for it!" Raditz clenched his fist and felt the strong power flowing through his arm and hand. After all the training during these past years, (1 year in Hyperbolic Time Chamber and 1 year on King Kai's planet.) Raditz finally had some confidence in himself. Maybe Raditz wasn't as useless and talentless as he thought. The Saiyans were indeed incredibly talented fighters.

"As long as we can handle the Android Saga, and prepare for Goku's heart disease, there won't a reason for the future timeline to travel back in time. But this is quite confusing. I'm not really sure if this is really the main timeline now. Since Future Trunks traveled to the story's timeline, it means that Future Trunks comes from the main timeline and the story's timeline was actually just a branched timeline created from traveling in the time machine... So, if I'm in an alternative timeline and defeat the androids, will this become the main timeline, because there won't be a reason for the future to travel back in time then? Ahh!! My God! I give up! I'll just play by the ear and take care of things as it comes. If Future Trunks or another future guy comes, then that is that. But for now, I should think about Frieza and Vegeta." Raditz grabbed his head and felt as if he had smash his head from all the tumultuous thinking.

"What's wrong Big Brother?" Goku suddenly popped up right in front of Raditz.

"Oh, Goku. No, it's nothing. What's up?" Raditz noticed the whole group had gathered around and asked.

"We have learned pretty much everything from King Kai already, so after talking abit, we have decided to return back to Earth and continue training there. Although Krillin and the rest haven't managed to learn Spirit bomb nor Kaioken yet, they have understood how to train in it and you, me, Tien Shinhan and Piccolo can help them in learning Kaioken as well. It's been a whole year since we left Earth. I'm sure Chichi, Master Roshi, Bulma and everyone else are missing us as well! Come on, let's go back to Earth together!" Goku said with a smile.

"Alright, let's do that." Raditz said with a wry smile after seeing the whole group had relaxed after knowing the danger had passed for now. There are so much more danger ahead, yet if the group relaxes already just at the start of the story. Who knows what will happen in the future.

"Aaaahh.... Finally you're leaving! Do you know just how much effort I have to put in to cook for the whole lot of you?!!! I barely had any time to rest!" King Kai shouted.

"Oh please. I only drink water, it's actually those three Saiyans that are eating more than ten times the rest of the group in total." Piccolo said with a playful smile. After spending a year together with everyone, even though he and the rest were enemies from the past. The enmity had cooled down and now, even Piccolo was comfortable enough to make jokes with the group.

"That's right! That's right!" The rest of the group with only normal human stomachs chimed in.

"I used to eat normally, but how come I now eat so much like daddy?" Gohan asked with a confused expression.

"That's right, Raditz you should know more about Saiyans than us. How come Goku and you have such a big appetite? Just how do you guys even manage to stuff in food ten times your size?" Krillin asked after sizing up both Goku and Raditz from head to toe.

"Hm...? I guess it's because our real forms are just gigantic?" Raditz pondered aloud. Thinking if it was because of their Great Ape transformations which were the reason for their near bottomless stomachs.

"G-gigantic? Real forms?" Yamcha and Krillin stuttered and looked at each other's eyes as if they were mentally conversing with each other.

"Well, I might as well explain the Great Ape transformation for Goku. Lest he gets so shocked he loses all his fighting will like in the story when he saw Vegeta transform." Raditz looked at the confused Goku and thought.

"During full moon, we Saiyans can transform into Great Apes, we'll grow into gigantic apes around 20 meters tall and our battle power will be multiplied by 10." Raditz said.

"M-multiplied by 10? That's like 10 times kaioken, but without the negative effect of having our bodies overloaded! Damn it! Right now 2x Kaioken is my limit!" Piccolo gnashed his teeth. Saiyans had naturally stronger bodies, that is why Goku was barely able to use 3x Kaioken.

"S-Say, Raditz. Does the Great Ape Transformation have any side effects? Or negative effects?" Both Yamcha and Krillin said in synch as if they had prepared a duet ahead of time. It seems Goku's Great Ape Transformation had left a very deep impression on them.

Tien Shinhan and Chiatzu looked confused at the duo.

"Yes, unfortunately, most Low-class Saiyan warriors practically loses all consciousness while transformed, while Mid class warriors are half-conscious. But with training its possible for a few to fully retain their consciousness and be in full control while transformed. Elite Class warriors usually gain full control after just a few transformations." Raditz explained just what the old Raditz's memories knew. It was much more comprehensive than what he had learned while he was a DragonBall fan and had scoured everywhere for information about Saiyans. But that wasn't weird, after all, Raditz is a real bonafide Saiyan warrior.

"Then Goku is a Low Class Warrior? What about you and Gohan?" Krillin asked after remembering that Raditz had said Goku's battle power was really low at birth and had been sent away as an infiltration baby. He also remembered the time he had witnessed Goku transform during the World Martial Arts Tournament during their childhood while causing mindless destruction.

"That's right, I'm a Mid Class Warrior so there isn't too much problem for me to transform. But the first few times a Saiyan transform is quite problematic and usually, they are supervised so they can get used to their transformation." Raditz looked at Gohan and continued "But I'm not sure how to class Gohan since he's a half-human half-Saiyan, It's likely that with half his blood being human, he will be half-conscious just like Mid Class warrior's transformation."

"But that is from Raditz's experiences from transforming... Now that I've taken over, it shouldn't be too much difference right? I do have his memories, but just in case I should still practice transforming a bit." Raditz thought and made a mental note.

"That's great! Then Gohan can achieve the same as 10x Kaioken after learning to control his transformation!" Krillin shouted excitedly.

Thud! Suddenly, the group heard a loud sound as if something heavy fell to the ground. The group turned their heads and noticed Goku was on his knees, his face one of horror and shock.

"I- I- I... G-grandpa... I killed grandpa?" Goku stuttered while breathing heavily. When he was a child he had always been careless and easy going. He was feeling extreme self-blame and regret. If only he had heeded his grandpa's warnings to not look up at the moon during full moon.

"Goku..." Krillin and Yamcha had learned that Goku's grandpa had been stomped to death by a monster in Mt. Paozu. They had already suspected that the monster was Goku since his grandpa had specifically told Goku that the monster would only appear during a full moon and that Goku was not allowed to go out at night with full moon and look at the moon.

"Dad...?" Gohan looked worriedly at Goku and slightly pulled Goku's sleeve.

"Well, I'm not supposed to know about Goku's life..." Raditz scratched the back of his head helplessly. He naturally understood what Goku was feeling, but he didn't really know what to do so he could only look as the rest of the group comforted Goku.
