Chapter 24: Another Use of the Somersault Cloud (2.5-in-1)
Where is Son Goku stronger than Vegeta?
It is Qiang that Monkey King and Vegeta have different ways of looking at power and have different visions.
Vegeta chased Kakarot for most of her life, and could only see one back at a time. The reason for this is that Vegeta did not realize it until the end of the Buu chapter in the land of the gods of the realm of the king of the gods. He finally saw the gap between himself and Sun Wukong, and understood why Sun Wukong could be one step ahead of him every time.
The two have different hearts about strength.
In terms of open-mindedness, he, the prince of the fighting nation, has always fallen behind this low-level warrior.
More than three months later.
On the side of a steep cliff, the view is wide, and at a glance, the vast Baozi Mountain Range is in full view.
The sunset melts, and the sunset dyes the entire mountain forest like a golden-green wheat field. The sunset is infinitely beautiful. And on the edge of the cliff, there is a small figure, standing upside down with one hand, practicing alone. He was located very close to the edge of the cliff, and if he accidentally fell, he would at least fall to death. However, the movements of the teenager's one-handed handstand exercise are easy and smooth, and there is no fear or hesitation.
This young man is, of course, Wang Chao.
Since he initially comprehended the true meaning of martial arts more than three months ago and successfully learned the Turtle School Qigong, Wang Chao's strength seems to have broken some kind of shackles and has been steadily improving in the past three months.
Wang Chao did not have the strong judgment of other traversers, and he did not find a wearable combat power detector in Sun Wukong's aircraft at that time, so he did not have a very intuitive numerical understanding of how much combat power he had reached at present - of course, it is not that Wang Chao does not have the minimum ability to judge the strength or weakness now, but with his practice, he feels more and more that the energy in the body of a martial artist is not the same as the strength that this martial artist can show, and it is more similar to that of a specific opponent. The battle results that can be achieved in battles on certain occasions are not equal.
Wang Chao didn't know what the formula for calculating the combat effectiveness of the Frieza Legion was, what was the proportion of "bioenergy of the target life form" in their formula, and what kind of calculation coefficient was used. But the linear calculation method of the so-called combat effectiveness data is obviously not suitable for the strength of martial artists.
The general combat effectiveness evaluation data of the Frieza Legion is obviously based on the objective fact that "the strength of most warriors in the universe increases naturally with the development of their bodies - except for the group of freaks of the Saiyans, who can get stronger and stronger in battle, and in a few cases, some can even greatly improve their combat effectiveness after the battle".
It is precisely because the known improvement of combat effectiveness is so steady, controllable, and predictable that the so-called combat effectiveness can be quantified.
However, martial artists are different from most warriors in the universe.
A martial artist is originally a practitioner.
Cultivation is a breakthrough.
A breakthrough represents a leap.
It is said that after Dragon Ball entered the Super Fierce Battle chapter, its combat power began to collapse, and one by one it became stronger and exaggerated to the point of flying.
But in fact, this exaggeration is based on the fact that the numerical combat power evaluation system common to the Frieza Legion is used by default to measure the strength changes of Sun Wukong and others.
And if you jump out of the numerical system of the Frieza Legion, look at the part of the so-called collapse of the combat power system again.
Raditz came, and the strength of this Saiyan was far stronger than the Monkey King and Piccolo, the strongest on Earth at that time - such a thing had not happened before, and the Piccolo Demon King of the year was also far superior to Little Goku. And later, after the cultivation of the king of the world, Sun Wukong, as he did back then, succeeded in far surpassing this group of terrifying and powerful Saiyans. Even the rhythm of rushing to the battlefield and appearing like a savior is similar to the battle that defeated the Piccolo Demon King back then.
If the opponent is strong, then surpass him.
Vegeta, Frieza, no matter how strong you are, I still have to fight you, and I will fight you with my life.
What data, what combat power value, it's just that you aliens are talking about it on your own, and Sun Wukong and others, who are martial artists on the earth, have never really recognized that kind of thing. Is the difference between the combat power of 520,000 and the combat power of 90,000 really 5.8 times the numerical value? Those guys in the Fu army who were taught bad brains by this system may be convinced, but for Sun Wukong and others, they will not be frightened by this arithmetic game.
The specific gap between strength and weakness, the clever martial artist, has always relied on his own judgment, rather than believing in a string of numbers.
In fact, since the end of the Namek chapter, this stat combat system hasn't been seen - even in Vegeta, who once talked about such numbers.
Even Dr. Gallo, a technology expert, must have known about the combat power calculation function in alien technology after collecting Vegeta and others who had just arrived on Earth, and finally did not use similar detection technology at all. Dr. Gallo's skill level is significantly higher than that of Fernandes, and his reasons for abandoning the system seem intriguing.
And putting aside a string of data, the so-called chapter of the collapse of combat effectiveness is essentially that Sun Wukong becomes stronger again and again, constantly defeating stronger opponents, and that's it.
This kind of thing, even when this man was young, has happened many times.
The martial artist Sun Wukong, as long as there is a strong enemy he wants to defeat, he has the possibility of "breaking through".
This kind of "breakthrough" mechanism cannot be touched once in the life of most cosmological warriors. In the Saiyan, it is a passive skill that "greatly increases the combat effectiveness after the resurrection of the near death", and after being promoted to the Super Saiyan level, it has become a concretized active skill such as the Super Saiyan one, two, three, red god and blue god visible to the naked eye......
Then, put it here as a martial artist, it is the idea of striving for progress again and again, and it is a strong desire to surpass yourself.
This is the belief that does not exist in the savage space warriors, believing that they can become stronger, or even must become stronger.
This kind of breakthrough is never simply measurable by numerical values - just as Qiu Yi is incredulous about Vegeta's changes, Vegeta is incredulous about Sun Wukong's changes, and he himself has not really completely freed himself from the rigid numerical formula game of the Frieza Army.
His heart is not yet enlightened......
Smack.
Smack.
Wang Chao closed his eyes and stood upside down with one hand, and hot beads of sweat rolled down to the ground drop by drop. The whirring mountain breeze blows on the skin, bringing a burst of coolness.
In the course of his practice, he likes to think about things over and over again. Especially after he has initially entered the hall in the realm of martial arts, he likes to ponder these ...... It should be something essential. In the process of this self-search, he gradually realized the relationship between "qi" and "mind". If it weren't for the worry of his partner and the desire to surpass Frieza, how could Sun Wukong have made such a drastic breakthrough on Namek?
And when it comes to the heart......
Wang Chao, who was standing upside down with one hand, slowly opened his eyes, and his dark pupils turned golden. Compared to when he first came to the mountain a few months ago, the gold was more solidified - because his heart was more determined. Wang Chao can recognize this. And from the very beginning, the fiery eyes have the quality of extinguishing or lighting up with the swaying of his heart.
The fiery eyes are also bright in accordance with his wishes.
Wang Chao felt that these eyes, which were ridiculed as "political commissars" by himself, actually had characteristics similar to the essence of "qi" to some extent.
He couldn't figure out the deeper meaning of the connection, but it must have been unusual.
Isn't it undesirable that this hapless traverser is not without merit.
Wang Chao was almost done exercising alone, so he shook one arm, bounced upside down, landed lightly on the ground, and clenched his fists.
At this time, he should have been moving bricks on the construction site outside, or plowing the land with his bare hands, or some other messy practice...... But a few days ago, Wang Chao completed these practices more and more easily, and there was no minimum effect of cultivation, so after delivering milk and eating lunch this morning, Wang Chao took the initiative to propose to the master that he didn't want to dig the ground and move bricks anymore.
Sun Gohan was a little surprised at that time, looked at his apprentice seriously, and soon showed a relieved smile.
Master said, "For a qualified martial artist, accurate judgment of one's own strength, self-consciousness of not following the crowd and obeying authority are also very important abilities. It turned out that Sun Wuhan had already discovered that with the improvement of Wang Chao's strength, the cultivation of ordinary means was no longer enough to put enough pressure on Wang Chao.
It's just that Sun Wuhan didn't point it out immediately, but waited for Wang Chao to find out by himself and offered it to him, the master.
And Wang Chao really didn't disappoint him.
Wang Chao didn't expect his master to have such an invisible test for him, but after knowing it, he also secretly admired the martial arts wisdom of his master's Turtle Immortal Stream.
However, one yard is one yard, and the matter of cultivation has always encountered a bottleneck, Wang Chao asked the master what to do next.
Sun Gohan seemed to have thought about it for a long time, and he suggested that Wang Chao practice alone for a few days for the time being. Sun Gohan was packing up something in the afternoon, and seemed to be preparing to go out.
"Combat effectiveness ......" Wang Chao looked at his fists, "Whatever." It's enough that I'm getting stronger. As for the strength and weakness, that kind of thing, you have to feel it yourself to make a judgment! β
Realizing that he also has the heart of a martial artist, Wang Chao himself is quite pleased with himself.
However, when I think of the next stage of my practice, I don't know what to do. Sun Gohan is packing up his things, is he going to take himself and Goku to the Turtle Immortal House? Wang Chao thought about it, and there was only this possibility.
"Wang Chao~~!"
At this time, someone approached and called Wang Chao's name.
Wang Chao looked back and saw that it was the little Monkey King. After this guy said the first sentence, his language skills improved very quickly, and he was able to speak short sentences a month ago, and now he can communicate completely without barriers. Complex sentences are not clearly expressed, but this aspect of listening is basically fine.
"Wukong," Wang Chao nodded and walked over, "Have you had dinner?" β
Sun Wukong followed next to Wang Chao, "Hmm! Grandpa seems to be going out. β
This was not unexpected by Wang Chao, and when the two returned to the wooden house, they saw that Sun Gohan had already packed up two large and small burdens.
The bonfire is set up and the game is complete, which should be made by Sun Wuhan in the afternoon - perhaps with the help of Sun Wukong. This kid is not very old, but his strength is not comparable to that of normal earthlings, and it may still be difficult to slaughter a tiger and a wild bear, but it is still easy to bully a roe deer and a hare. And driven by an astonishing appetite, Sun Wukong seems to have indescribable special bonuses in hunting.
Master and apprentice, or grandfather and grandson, enjoyed dinner in harmony.
Sun Wukong munched on all kinds of barbecue meat as usual, and today there was a fatty grilled fish, which was so fragrant. Sun Wuhan and Wang Chao both doted on him, and every time they gave him a large amount of delicious food, they would give it to him quietly.
"Master," Wang Chao still asked, "I don't know what your specific plans are?" β
Sun Gohan said: "Hehe, there is nothing special, your cultivation effect is getting lower and lower, mainly because the burden and pressure have become smaller with the improvement of your strength. When I was practicing under Master Wu Tian, Master Wu Tian once carried a special turtle shell for me and my brother of the Bull Demon King, which was very heavy and very helpful for my cultivation...... I'm just going to take you to Master Wutian this time and ask for a few turtle shells of different weights. β
"I see." Wang Chao suddenly, he glanced at Sun Wukong, who was eating hiatously, "It seems that Master has decided to really teach Wukong to learn martial arts?" β
Sun Gohan said: "This kid is indeed not bad-hearted. β
Wang Chao smiled: "In this case, we have to pay attention, don't let Wukong's tail grow." β
Sun Gohan also smiled and nodded.
"If it's just a turtle shell...... Wang Chao suddenly changed his words, as if he had thought of something, and proposed with great interest, "Master, I don't think we have to go out and run so far." Maybe there's another way to let the turtle shell deliver it to your door. β
"Oh?" Sun Gohan was curious, "What way?" β
Wang Chao smiled: "I remember telling Master that I once called the somersault cloud, right?" β
Son Gohan: "I did. The somersault cloud is an immortal creature that responds to the purity of the mind, and if you can summon the somersault cloud, it means that your mind has temporarily sublimated to a particularly pure state at that time. However, if you want to call the somersault cloud, you either need the consent of the owner of the somersault cloud, or you can still have the pure state of mind that you had at that time......"
"I can't do it." Wang Chao shook his head, "I don't know which tendon in my brain was wrong at that time, and I was able to summon a somersault cloud...... But, Master, are you not up to the somersault cloud's requirements? β
Sun Gohan laughed and said: "Child, looking down on the world and being pure in heart are two different things. Master, I'm in this state now, and many old guys with a lot of experience are similar, nothing special. If this can call somersault clouds, then wouldn't all the old men and old ladies running all over the world be able to call somersault clouds? β
Then he shook his head and said, "In addition, Master Wutian did not pass on the somersault cloud to me. β
Wang Chao understood, but said, "But even so, we can still call the somersault cloud, Master." β
"Huh?" The old gentleman suddenly saw his little grandson who was eating meat and had a hot mouth, and suddenly said, "Oh, Wukong! Yes, if it's Goku, he will definitely be able to call the somersault cloud. β
Wang Chao smiled and nodded, "That's right!" In terms of purity of mind, I have never seen anything more consistent than Goku. β
Sun Gohan readily agreed, but even if he called the somersault cloud, what did it have to do with what Wang Chao said about letting the turtle shell send it by himself? Wang Chao saw that the master was puzzled, so he explained: "I once sat on a somersault cloud, and at that time I was not very clear because of an injury, I only remember saying to the somersault cloud before passing out, let it fly towards Baozi Mountain!" β
After a pause, Wang Chao smiled and said, "And before I can continue to ride the somersault cloud, the flight path of the somersault cloud is really flying towards Baozi Mountain!" Master, I only knew the approximate location of Baozi Mountain at that time, and I didn't tell the somersault cloud directly, unless it could read my memory...... It can only be said that this somersault cloud, which has been passed down in many legends since ancient times, knows the mountains, rivers, cities, and geography of the earth well!
"The somersault cloud itself is spiritual, just tell it a place you want to go and it can take you there directly - even if you don't know where this place is in the world."
Sun Wuhan thought about it carefully, and what the apprentice said didn't seem to be wrong.
Although he came from the Turtle Immortal Sect, the Turtle Immortal himself had long been unable to sit on the somersault cloud, and he didn't plan to pass it on to the two apprentices, so the turtle immortal didn't call the somersault cloud to the apprentices to show off much. It is also understandable that Sun Gohan is not as familiar with somersault cloud as Wang Chao, a traverser who is familiar with the original.
In fact, Wang Chao also had a flash of inspiration and realized that the somersault cloud originally came with the function of intelligent navigation! The whole earth is covered, and you can fly wherever you want.
So, the master and apprentice asked Sun Wukong to shout the name of the somersault cloud to the sky.
As long as he doesn't rob him of food, Sun Wukong is very well-behaved, wiping his grease mouth, and shouting at the pheasant in the sky: "Tendon ~~ Dou ~~ Cloud ~~!" β
Sun Gohan and Wang Chao both looked at the sky fixedly.
kingββββ
In the dim night sky, an inconspicuous bright spot suddenly lit up, and soon turned into a dark yellow line, drawing an arc on the canopy, rushing straight down at an incredible speed, "snorting", and stopping in front of the caller Sun Wukong. The cloud body with the rolling clouds and the little tail cocked are just like the one in the animation and the one Wang Chao saw a year or two ago.
Sun Gohan also sighed a little, he hadn't seen a somersault cloud for many years.
"Hee-hee, what is this?" Sun Wukong was very curious that after he shouted somersault clouds according to the words of his grandfather and Wang Chao, such an interesting cloud fell from the sky. He leaned over, bit on the somersault cloud, but didn't gnaw anything, climbed on the somersault cloud unconvinced, and gnawed everywhere, as a result, the somersault cloud seemed to be playing with him, and where Sun Wukong put his mouth, he would transfer the cloud wave and prevent him from biting it. One monkey and one cloud even started playing, and they had a lot of fun.
Goku is really fine! The master and apprentice next to him secretly admired.
Wang Chao walked over and tentatively quietly pressed his hand on the cloud - penetrating it. He clapped his hands, acted as if nothing had happened, and walked back to the Master.
"Master, will you try?" Wang Chao pouted.
"Hehe......" Sun Gohan was an old man, so he didn't want to lose face, "No, Master has to go back to the house to write a letter and ask somersault cloud to take it back to the Turtle Immortal House." After Master Wu Tian saw my handwritten letter, he asked the somersault cloud to send you and Wukong's turtle shell for cultivation. After saying that, he turned around and sent back the baggage he had used to go out, and wrote a letter.
Sun Wukong rolled happily in the soft somersault cloud, and Wang Chao watched the thief envy from the sidelines. And he himself knows that the more envious he is, the more impossible it is to sit on the somersault cloud.
After a while, Sun Gohan came out with a little bit of baggage, picked Sun Wukong off the somersault cloud, and then put the burden on the somersault cloud.
In addition to the letter explaining the situation, there are also gifts such as souvenirs prepared by Sun Gohan for his master.
Sun Gohan patted the shoulder of the little grandson in his arms, "Wukong, tell somersault cloud, 'Send things to the Turtle Immortal House'." β
"Oh," Sun Wukong nodded without thinking about it, waved his little hand and said tenderly, "somersault cloud, send things to the Turtle Immortal House~~"
Wang Chao clearly saw that the head of the somersault cloud seemed to be tapped up and down twice, very spiritual, and then rose to the sky with his burden, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
Sun Wukong was amazed and clapped his little hands, this little thing is really fun.
"Grandpa, will somersault clouds come back?" Sun Wukong looked up and asked.
"Do you want it back?" Sun Gohan spoke softly.
"I want to~!"
Sun Gohan kindly touched Goku's head and said, "If you want to, it will appear." This is the somersault cloud, and it will respond to the expectations of good children. β
Sun Wukong danced happily, and soon, he suddenly turned his head to look at Wang Chao and asked, "Isn't Wang Chao a good boy?" β
Your sister! Wang Chaoqi is so angry, I really want to pull a slipper! Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned.
Son Gohan laughed heartily.
The three of them waited for half the night, but they didn't see the somersault cloud come back, so they all went back to the house to rest.
The next day, early in the morning.
Someone knocked on the door and shouted, "Is Sun Gohan here?" β
Listening to the voice, it turned out to be an old man.
Sun Wukong rubbed his eyes and opened the door, and saw that there was a bald old man with a turtle shell on his back who he didn't know at the door, he yawned and asked, "Grandpa, who are you?" β

I wrote for a while last night and fell asleep in my chair...... My head still hurts from sleeping. 555
