Neo's actions left Bulma very confused: "Ah? Big Brother Neo, why did you knock them out?"
Neo said with a serious expression: "Such matters as making a wish cannot have outsiders present, otherwise it would be bad if they snatched the wish away."
"Hehehe~~ Big Brother Neo is still the most thoughtful."
As Bulma spoke, she picked up the seven seven dragon balls and placed them in an open space nearby, her heart pounding incessantly: "Alright! I am going to summon Shenron!"
"Let's begin!" Neo nodded, his heartbeat also accelerating somewhat.
"Can Grandpa be revived right away?" Son Goku also wore an expression of eager anticipation at this moment.
Bulma took a deep breath and said loudly: "Come out! Shenron! Grant my wish!"
In an instant, the dragon ball began to shimmer with a faint light, and then the entire sky turned dark.
This miraculous sight caught the attention of people all over the world, and various reports came in one after another...
As the sky grew completely dark, the seven dragon balls also shone with a dazzling radiance.
Following that, a gigantic Shenron soared into the sky from the radiance, winding across the firmament, while its tail remained connected to where the seven dragon balls were.
Looking at the majestic and mighty Shenron in the sky, Neo's heartbeat also pounded violently at this moment: "Is this Shenron... It looks insanely cool!"
Bulma was also filled with excitement and thrill: "Wow! Shenron! It really is Shenron! The legend is actually true!"
Shenron looked down at the three of Neo below and spoke in human language: "State your wish! Any wish I can help you realize, but only one..."
Neo took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said: "Please revive Son Goku's grandfather, Gohan!"
This was a promise made to Son Goku.
Even if an unexpected situation arose and Gohan was willing to be revived, it wouldn't matter; at worst, they could just make a wish again next year.
"Hmm~ This is very simple..."
As Shenron spoke, its dragon eyes flashed with a faint light...
Son Goku looked at it with an expression of anticipation.
However, after a moment, Shenron spoke: "I am very sorry, I cannot help you realize this wish!"
"Eh? Why?" Bulma looked perplexed: "Didn't you say you could grant any wish?"
"That is because Gohan has been dead for three years! And I can only revive people who have been dead for no more than a year, so I cannot help you fulfill this wish."
Hearing this, Neo was stunned.
He knew that Gohan was unwilling to be revived, but he had forgotten the rule that the dragon ball could not revive someone who had been dead for a year.
"Eh? Does that mean Grandpa cannot come back?" Son Goku wore a look of disappointment.
Shenron said apologetically: "I am very sorry, please choose another wish!"
Neo patted Son Goku on the shoulder, offered a word of comfort, and said to Shenron: "Then let me learn the Instant Transmission that only the Supreme Kai can master!"
As for eternal youth, Immortality, and the like, not to mention whether Earth's Shenron could grant them, even if they were granted, it would be limited.
If he wanted to make such a wish, he would wait until he found the super dragon balls in the future!
"I am very sorry! This has already touched upon the realm of the gods, and I cannot help you realize it."
Hearing this, Bulma immediately retorted: "Hey, hey, hey~ What is going on with you, Shenron? You promised you could grant any wish, why can't you grant this and you can't grant that either?"
Shenron was immediately made a bit embarrassed by this: "I am very sorry, I can only grant wishes within my capabilities."
"Although I cannot let you master the Instant Transmission that only the Supreme Kai can use, I can, however, let you master Planet Yardrat's Instant Transmission. I wonder if you are willing?"
"That works too."
Neo had actually anticipated this.
After all, Earth's Shenron was truly limited in power.
In the original story, Bulma only wished to become younger and didn't wish for eternal youth, which showed that Earth's Shenron probably couldn't grant the wish for eternal youth and could only settle for making someone younger.
"This wish is very simple!"
The moment Shenron saw Neo agree, it started acting all high and mighty again.
Its red eyes flashed, and Neo suddenly felt a piece of information abruptly emerge in his brain.
It was information concerning Instant Transmission—the cultivation methods and usage tricks were deeply and firmly engraved in his brain, as if he had tempered them through thousands of hardships.
It was truly miraculous.
"Your wish has been granted. Well then, farewell!"
As it spoke, Shenron vanished, and the seven dragon balls also soared into the sky amidst dazzling radiance, then transformed into seven streaks of light, shooting away in different directions across the world and disappearing from sight.
The sky returned to brightness once more, and everything was as before.
Seeing this, Son Goku immediately panicked: "Ah? Why did the dragon ball fly away!"
Neo explained: "After a dragon ball grants a wish, it turns into stone and scatters in all directions."
"After that, we can only find them using the dragon radar after a year."
"Ah? Doesn't that mean my grandpa's keepsake is also gone?"
"That's right!"
Son Goku instantly wore a look of disappointment.
Neo smiled and patted Son Goku on the shoulder, comforting him: "It's alright, Goku. Although the wish failed, as long as you work hard to become stronger, you can still go to the Underworld in person to see your grandpa in the future."
"Really?" Son Goku's originally disappointed expression instantly reignited with hope.
"Of course it's true."
"Great! Then I must become stronger! Let's go! Let's go find Master Roshi!"
Bulma looked at Neo with some surprise and said: "Big Brother Neo, how come I feel like you know everything?"
"Also, what was that Supreme Kai you mentioned earlier?"
Neo: "Oh~ That is a deity in the universe!"
Hearing this, Bulma looked shocked: "What? Are there really gods in this world?"
"That is only natural. After all, we have a god right here on Earth."
"Wow~ Really?" Bulma looked astonished.
"Of course, I'll take you to experience it when I get the chance!"
"Yay! Yay!" Bulma looked very happy, then said somewhat disconsolately: "But my vacation is almost over, I need to hurry back. Um, you..."
"I'll go back with you! Anyway, home is wherever I am, I can move to a place not far from your house to live."
Hearing this, Bulma jumped for joy: "Wow~ Really? That's wonderful!"
Son Goku looked at Neo with some puzzlement: "Ah? Big Brother Neo, are you not coming with me to find Master Roshi anymore?"
Neo waved his hand and said: "I won't go. You go back by yourself!"
As he spoke, he looked at Bulma and said: "Bulma, leave a phone number for Goku so it will be easier to contact each other if something comes up."
"Alright!" Bulma immediately took out a business card and handed it to Son Goku: "Here, this string of numbers on here is my phone number. If anything happens, give us a call."
