NOW GUY's What ship you Want...like MR.SATAN x GOHAN(J.K)

[Answrer]

.

Hearing her voice, Gohan quietly let out a breath.

"She's alive," he thought and sighs ."now my alternative plan can work without spaceship....."

"It's not me," Roshi replied..."Goku's son, Gohan, wants to talk to you."

"Oh?" Baba said..."Then let him speak. I can hear him."

Gohan remembered something.

His father, Goku, and King Kai also talked this way—mind to mind

Maybe it was telepathy.

"Baba," Gohan said politely, "I'm sorry to bother you, but I want to ask… what is my father doing right now?"

"Hm," Baba replied..."Most likely training on King Kai's planet."

Gohan's heart tightened.

"Can you connect me to him?"

Baba paused.

"No," she said firmly, "That's against the rules made by King Yama. I don't have permission for that."

Gohan thought quickly.

"Then… can you send me to the Other World?" he asked..."I can travel Snake Way and meet King Kai myself."

Baba was silent for a moment.

"Normally, mortals can't do that," she said. "But you and your father have saved Earth many times."

She sighed.

"I don't think Lord Yama will mind."

Then she added,

"How about this? I'll speak to Lord Yama myself. I'll tell you tomorrow what he says."

Gohan was surprised.

"Thank you, Baba," he said sincerely "I'll wait for your reply."

The connection ended.

Gohan turned to Master Roshi and Mr. Popo as Roshi looked at him carefully.

"So… what are you planning to do on King Kai's planet?" Roshi asked.

Gohan paused, then answered honestly.

"I want to talk to my father. I also want to learn Instant Transmission and other techniques."

Mr. Popo's eyes widened slightly.

"After that," Gohan continued, "I'll go to New Namek. King Kai should know where it is. I need the Dragon Balls to revive everyone."

He clenched his fist.

"The spaceship will be ready in a month. If possible, I'll teleport instead."

Both Master Roshi and Mr. Popo were stunned.

They didn't expect such a clear, well-thought plan from a ten-year-old.

Mr. Popo spoke quietly.

"Yes… this is what Kami Imagined of humanity."

He looked at Gohan.

"Even at the edge of destruction, humans still rise. Even when divided, hope still exists." [Gohan is Half Human]

"Damn those androids…" Master Roshi muttered as He let out a deep sigh.

"Gohan, I know what you're thinking," Roshi said quietly, "You probably think I'm a coward."

He shook his head.

"But tell me what could I have done? They were too powerful."

Roshi clenched his fist.

"if i was there i will be a liability there ....and now There's no strong warrior left in this world anymore. Except you."

He looked at Gohan seriously.

"You have your father's potential. You're a Saiyan… no, a half-Saiyan. And honestly, you have even more potential than your father ever did."

He laughed bitterly.

"All this burden… it's on your shoulders now. You're the only hope left."

Then he sighed again.

"I really miss the days when I was the strongest in the world."

Hearing this, Gohan understood how Roshi felt.

"It's okay, Master Roshi," Gohan said calmly. "Someone has to do something."

Then he looked straight at him.

"And if you want… you can help me too."

Roshi blinked.

"Help you?" he asked. "What can I even do? I'm just an old man now."

He smiled sadly.

"Yeah, I might be immortal. I won't die of old age. But my strength is at limit.... I can't break my limits anymore."

He looked at Gohan.

"What can I do?"

Gohan smiled.

"You can help," he said firmly...."And I need your help very soon."

Roshi looked at him in shock.

"…How?"

"I plan to train in the Time Chamber," Gohan said. "And I want you to come with me."

Roshi froze.

"There are many things I still need to learn," Gohan continued...."I need your guidance. We can train together."

Master Roshi stayed silent as He remembered that place.

The air was heavy,The temperature was extreme and The gravity was ten times Earth's.

It wasn't a training room but It felt more like torture as The last time he stepped inside, he couldn't last even a few seconds.

But… Gohan was going to go in alone and Roshi didn't want to feel useless. So after a long pause, he nodded.

"…Alright."

Then he asked quietly,

"How long, Gohan?"

Gohan turned toward Mr. Popo, who had been watching silently.

"Mr. Popo," Gohan asked, "each person can only enter the Time Chamber for two days in their lifetime, right?"

"Yes," Mr. Popo replied calmly. "And Two days inside equals two years outside."

He continued,

"If anyone stays longer than two days, the door disappears. You will never be able to leave. No one knows where the gate goes after that."

Gohan nodded.

He remembered this from the anime.As Piccolo once broke out during the Buu arc by sheer power. But right now… neither he nor Master Roshi had that level of strength.

Mr. Popo added,

"When Goku first trained here, he could only last three months."

Gohan took a deep breath.

"I understand," he said....."I'll go home for half a day first. I'm waiting for Fortune Teller Baba's reply tomorrow and need some relax too."

He looked at Roshi.

"I'll save the remaining time for later."

Roshi laughed.

"Half a year would already be amazing," he said. "Your father couldn't even last three months."

Gohan smiled but said nothing as The decision was made by him.

Mr. Popo opened the door.

"There is food and water inside," he said. "Take your time. I will open the door again in twelve hours."

The door opened.

Gohan's eyes shined.

"This might really boost my power," he thought.

Gohan and Master Roshi stepped inside one after the other.

Mr. Popo closed the door behind them.

Inside, everything was white.

White floor,walls, sky.

At the corner of the hall were two large cabinets. There was water, food, and supplies but all raw. Rice, meat, and basic ingredients.

Roshi threw his dirty magazines onto one of the beds and followed Gohan forward.

As they walked, they realized something terrifying.

There was nothing.

Just endless white emptiness.

If someone walked too far… they might never find their way back. Even dying here wouldn't guarantee being found. But there was no turning back now as Master Roshi stepped down the stairs.

The moment his foot touched the ground—

Boom.

He slammed into the floor.

"Ten times gravity…!" Roshi thought.

"Damn it," he groaned. "If I hadn't used ki to strengthen my body, my back would've snapped by now."

He slowly pushed himself up.

"Ah… my back…" Master Roshi groaned but he forced himself to stand up as Gohan followed him down into the white void.

The moment Gohan stepped fully inside

Boom.

The gravity hit him as His knees bent Slightly and It felt like his whole body was being crushed from inside . 

"Damn…" Gohan thought. "This is uncomfortable."

He gritted his teeth.

"How did Dad survive this? And when he was young too…Gravity is not a issue ...but the Air here is toxic "

Every organ in his body felt heavy. His heart beat wildly. His lungs felt dry and cold at the same time. Even his brain felt like it was shaking.

He started panting.

"If this was One Piece," he thought randomly, " and in this kind of situation I would've awakened Gear 5 or Conqueror's Haki by now."

He almost laughed at himself at his dad Joke as He waited. One minute. Two minutes.

He focused on his breathing. Slowly… very slowly… his body began adjusting to the Air.

He was not weak as He was half-Saiyan and Adaptation was in his blood though not on the level of Daddyraga as His muscles tightened. His stance steadied.

After a short while, he managed to stand up straight.

Master Roshi watched him from a distance and Seeing Gohan adapt, Roshi tried harder too.

He sat on the ground for nearly thirty minutes before standing up again. Slowly. Like a turtle climbing a hill.

But he didn't quit.

"Very good…" Gohan muttered to himself "I adapted quickly."

"This place has ten times Earth's gravity. My base power is already strong. If I go all out, maybe I could handle a hundred times gravity after proper training."

He remembered gravity training from before.

"Later, I'll ask Aunt Bulma to build a gravity chamber. Like the one she made for Vegeta in super ."

He clenched his fist.

"For now, my goal is simple which is to become Super Saiyan."

He looked down at his hands.

"My S-cells should be high. Transformation shouldn't be impossible."

He thought about the OG timeline.

In the main timeline, ]Gohan turned Super Saiyan under Goku's training. Then Super Saiyan 2 during intense anger during Cell game's.

But this timeline was different as Future Gohan had no proper teacher. No peace. No time.

He was always fighting and slowly… he gave up hope.

Gohan sighed.

"How can I force anger?"

The old Gohan had already accepted his father's death. Accepted Piccolo's death. He blamed himself and drowned in guilt.

"I inherited his memories… and his emotions."

That made things complicated.

"Forget it," Gohan said quietly.

"I'll focus on basic training first. Increase my base power for two months inside and Then I'll try to transform."

He turned and looked at Master Roshi, who was about five hundred feet away, still adjusting.

"Master Roshi!" Gohan called out. "Can you fight me?"

Roshi untied his heavy turtle shell and dropped it to the ground.

"Gohan…" Roshi panted "Give me a minute. Let me get used to this place first."

He wiped sweat from his forehead.

"This place is terrible. Now I understand why Goku only stayed three months."

He tried standing straight again.

"But still…" Roshi said between breaths, "I have to admit… your father was incredible."

He looked at Gohan seriously. "And now… it's your turn."

"Ha… okay, Master Roshi," Gohan said with a small smile. "If you need time, I'll train by myself for a while."

He stepped forward into the endless white space and started punching the air again and again.

The gravity wasn't the main problem for him. He had trained under higher gravity before. But the air here was strange. It was dry, thin, and heavy at the same time Cold . Even Namek's air wasn't like this.

Still, he kept going.

Punch,Kick,Step,Turn.

His movements slowly became faster, sharper. After about six hours, Gohan finally got used to the air. Master Roshi also adapted to the gravity little by little.

Soon, they began training together as They pushed each other every day.

Inside the Time Chamber, one month passed like this.

During that month, Gohan fought Master Roshi almost every day. He learned many things from him.

Afterimage technique,Feints and movement tricks and Better control of the Kamehameha.

He already knew the Kamehameha, but now he refined it. He adjusted the stance, the flow of ki, even the release timing. He added his own style to it.

Roshi also taught him the true Turtle School way and importance of discipline, timing, and calmness during battle.

But Gohan trained desperately as He only slept four hours a day and One day, Master Roshi suddenly raised his hand.

"Gohan, stop."

Gohan paused.

"You've been training like a madman for a whole month," Roshi said seriously. "You only sleep four hours a day. You're still a child."

He crossed his arms.

"The Turtle School way is simple: Work hard. Study well. Eat well. Sleep well."

He looked at Gohan carefully.

"I know the world is in danger. I know you feel pressure. But if you break… then everything breaks."

Gohan took a breath.

"Don't worry, Master Roshi," he said, "I feel fine. If I get tired or hungry, I just take a Senzu Bean."

He showed the small pouch.

"I can keep going."

Roshi sighed.

"You may be fine… but I'm not."

He rubbed his shoulder.

"My body can't handle this pace anymore. Let's take a break."

He was lying as he can continue to train But he wanted Gohan to slow down. Even Saiyans need time to adapt.

"…Alright," Gohan said quietly as They rested for a few hours.
