8 Unexpected Situation (1/2)
One year passed in a breeze.
Everyone was training enthusiastically. Goku and Piccolo were sparring in the air, due to the few potholes they had made in their earlier spar and gotten an earful reproach from King Kai. Gohan and Krillin were sparring on the ground since they were unable to make any visible damage to the planet and as such, King Kai did not disallow them from sparring on the ground. The rest were refining their fighting techniques.
Pshhhh... The big metal cylinder shaped house's door slowly opened as white gas sizzled out from the door's edge.
A limping Raditz dressed in his torn rag like clothes that could barely cling onto his body slowly made his way out from the doorway.
”Ahh...! That was intense! I should really be careful in the future... If not for King Kai having a healing skill I would probably have to rely on a senzu bean. But... If I didn't have one I would really be... So screwed!!” Raditz made a strong mental note in his mind to not carelessly train with the Gravity Chamber. Earth did not have a Rejuvenation Chamber like Frieza Force has. If he really were to get badly injured, he could potentially need a year to heal. All that time which could have been used to train. Or he might actually get killed if an enemy were to appear. Not to mention, Raditz was mesmerized by the Dragon Ball World and had the wish to travel in space. There might not be much danger on Earth, but in space, who knew what might exist there and what hostile aliens might appear.
The first time he used the Gravity Chamber, he had also been too eager to train and severely injured himself over and over until he exhausted all his senzu beans. But at least, when training at King Kai's place or at Kami's place was fine, since both King Kai and Kami had healing skills.
”Learning a healing skill would do wonders...” Raditz thought eagerly.
After limping towards King Kai's house for quite a long time. King Kai finally noticed Raditz's bad condition and hurriedly ran up to him.
”Ah! Raditz, you need to be careful when you train, if you were to cripple your limbs, then even my healing skill will be useless!” King Kai reprimanded Raditz, spitting out a mouthful of saliva which plastered Raditz's face.
”A- Alright! Hurry and heal me before I croak!!” Raditz hurriedly reminded King Kai to heal him first before he loses all his strength.
”Oh right!” King Kai lightly patted his head and hurriedly pointed his pair of antennae at Raditz.
Prururu! A gentle light flicked in front of King Kai's antennae and healed up Raditz's injuries after a few moments.
”There you go! All nice and patched up! Hahaha!” King Kai laughed. Apparently he made a joke as if he patched up Raditz like patching a piece of cloth.
”Thanks King Kai. Since you're patching up, can you also make me a few dozens of training clothes?” Raditz asked naughtily.
”Uhh... You really know how to work me to death!” King Kai gave a wry smile as he started materializing one set of clothes after another.
After an hour, a cheerful Raditz packing away over 20 sets of training clothes into a storage capsule, with a huffing and puffing King Kai lying on the ground with beads of sweat covering his face.
