Chapter 54: Departure, Agreement on the Martial Arts Tournament
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
During this week, Jiang Hao and Bulma stayed on Kame Island and did not leave.
During this time, Jiang Hao also cultivated alongside Goku and the others.
Master Roshi's cultivation methods still had some worthwhile aspects.
The cultivation Master Roshi taught Goku and the others brought significant improvement in controlling Qi.
Cultivating alongside Goku and the others, Jiang Hao made considerable progress during this period.
Thanks to the Gravity Bracelet, Jiang Hao's progress was not slow.
In one week, his combat power had risen to over two hundred.
The reason for such rapid improvement was not only that he had set the Gravity Bracelet to twelve times gravity, but also that he fought Goku every day, which boosted his combat power far faster than before.
Basically, he increased his combat power by seven to eight points every day at minimum.
Besides Jiang Hao, Goku and Krillin also made considerable progress.
Although Goku's exact combat power could not be checked, judging by his strength in their sparring, Goku's combat power had already broken one hundred.
Breaking one hundred might seem insignificant.
But in reality, a two-digit combat power and a three-digit combat power were not on the same level at all.
There were so many martial artists on Earth, but besides Master Roshi, it was truly hard to find a second person with combat power over one hundred.
Back then, Master Roshi suffered greatly to break from two-digit to three-digit combat power.
He even drank the Ultra Divine Water to completely break the limit of Earthlings, rising from two digits to three digits in combat power.
Of course, for Goku, breaking from two digits to three digits in combat power was nothing special.
After all, Goku was not an Earthling but a Saiyan; his physical upper limit was completely incomparable to that of Earthlings.
Among Saiyans, even a low-class warrior had at least several dozen combat power at birth.
Someone like Goku, with only two combat power at birth, was an extremely rare existence.
Some powerful ones were born with hundreds of combat power, even thousands.
For example, Vegeta, the Saiyan Prince, had two thousand combat power at birth, making him arguably the most talented Saiyan in history.
As for Broly, it was even more exaggerated; he had ten thousand combat power at birth.
However, Broly was special; he was a born Super Saiyan, and compared to other Saiyans, he was essentially a different species.
Therefore, breaking one hundred in combat power was no unbreakable shackle for Goku.
Of course, there was a huge difference between having combat power over one hundred and not.
The biggest difference lay in the qualitative change of Qi and the shift in destructive power.
Simply put, an energy blast thrown by someone under one hundred combat power could destroy a house or something similar.
One with over one hundred could directly obliterate a skyscraper.
The destructive power of the two differed by more than two or three times.
Besides Goku, Krillin also made significant progress.
His combat power was around thirty or forty.
Compared to Jiang Hao and the others, this was nothing.
But compared to his previous state, this was already tremendous progress.
After staying on Kame Island for a week,
Jiang Hao and Bulma also planned to leave.
Jiang Hao's main purpose for coming out this time was still to obtain the Senzu Bean and the Ultra Divine Water.
Having stayed on Kame Island for a week, he had already taught Goku what needed to be taught; it was time to leave.
The next time they met would probably be at the World Martial Arts Tournament.
That was about four months away.
Not much time at all.
"Goku, cultivate well. Bulma and I are leaving first. We will meet again at the World Martial Arts Tournament in four months. By then, I won't hold back. If you get one-shotted because your strength isn't enough after stepping onto the stage, don't blame me," Jiang Hao said with a smile.
Goku nodded.
"Alright, then see you at the World Martial Arts Tournament. Rest assured, I will work hard to catch up to you. I won't give up easily. Although I lost to you this time, next time, I will definitely win."
Jiang Hao smiled.
"If others said that, I wouldn't believe it, but from you, I do."
"Alright, let's go. In a month, I might have someone bring you something. As for what it is, you'll know when the time comes."
"Well then, Krillin, Master Roshi, and Launch, Bulma and I are leaving."
"Everyone, goodbye." Bulma also smiled and greeted everyone to say farewell.
Under the watchful eyes of Goku, Krillin, and the others, Jiang Hao and Bulma boarded the plane. Soon, the plane started up and took off amidst a roar.
After the plane's figure completely disappeared from sight,
Goku withdrew his gaze.
"Krillin, Master Roshi, will you participate in this World Martial Arts Tournament?" Goku had already decided to participate in this tournament.
Because Jiang Hao would participate.
Since Jiang Hao was participating, there was no reason for him not to.
Having lost to Jiang Hao a week ago, he accepted the defeat wholeheartedly.
But he was not someone who gave up easily.
He lost last time, but he had no intention of admitting defeat.
He could catch up to Jiang Hao before, and now, he still could.
"Me? I suppose I'll participate. Even if I can't win the championship, just being able to take part is good enough," Krillin said.
If Sun Sun Wukong possessed the strength he had in the original story at this period.
Krillin probably still had the thought of chasing after Sun Sun Wukong and competing for first place.
But the current Sun Sun Wukong's combat power has already broken one hundred.
What chance does he have to catch up?
Krillin truly had no confidence that he could catch up to Sun Sun Wukong in the remaining four months.
After all, he had seen with his own eyes how diligently Sun Sun Wukong trained on a daily basis.
