After that, Xiaya and Bulma continued to fly over the ocean for a little while before they finally found Dr . Tokunoshin Omori’s small island where he lived in seclusion . It was in the midst of a rocky sea area .
Because it had been neglected for years due to the absence of people, the small island had become deserted .
Landing the aircraft at the edge of the island reef, what came into their view was the sight of overgrown bushes . The path paved with slabs was fully covered with moss, and the road could almost not be distinguished . After entering deep into the island, they discovered several flat-roofed and short cabins . The surrounding area had been covered with vines; the green slender vines were growing along the walls . The layers upon layers of leaves were intertwined as if they were wrapped in a layer of green clothes . It was just like a paradise .
“It seems no one has come here for decades . I wonder if the doctor’s data is still preserved . ” Bulma swept her eyes to the surroundings, sounding relieved .
“Let’s have a look!” Xiaya frowned .
Opening the door of a flat-roofed house, they could see that dust had accumulated inside of the house . The furnishings inside seemed to have been baptized by a tornado . All kinds of furniture and decorations were swaying; they were in a mess .
On a working table, there was a variety of old equipment . It should be the tools used by Dr . Tokunoshin Omori to research time machines .
Creak! Creak!
They heard “creak creak” sounds as they walked in; after all, it was an old house from decades ago . Xiaya and Bulma rummaged through the chests and cupboards, looking for data that was conducive to create an Interdimensional Travel Device .
“Bulma, look… are these things useful?”
Xiaya found a large cardboard box covered in dust in the corner . When he opened it, he saw that it was full blueprints and notes . As they were decades old, the paper had turned yellow and deformed, and the writing was not very clear either .
Bulma picked up a blueprint and looked at it for a while . Her eyes shone as she said, “Yes, this is definitely the data on the time machine . Dr Tokunoshin Omori’s research on time machine is very deep . The elementary framework is all set up… space-time parameters, dimension coordinates… So, it’s like this!” As if it were the instincts of a scientist, Bulma suddenly got absorbed in it after seeing something of research value .
“Ehem… if you want to study, we can move everything back and then you can study . ” Xiaya lightly coughed .
“OK . ”
Bulma came back to herself and carefully closed the notes . She looked like a devout believer holding on to a sacred object engraved with God’s directives . She seriously listened to his order and carefully placed the documents into the Hoi-Poi Capsule .
After doing all this, Bulma looked around and found some old equipment . She also moved all them into the Hoi-Poi Capsule; these equipments are something Dr . Tokunoshin Omori had used while researching the time machine . Although they were old, they might help her in research to some extent .
Regarding scientific research, Bulma had always been serious and careful .
“Well then, let’s return . I can’t wait to study this data carefully . ” True outstanding scientists would erupt with great enthusiasm in the face of these unknown research materials, and Bulma was also the same . At this time she was like a sapling waiting to grow and urgently needed to absorb enough nutrients .
“Umm, let’s go!”
Xiaya nodded . However, when they intended to go back, they didn’t make use of the aircraft . Instead, under Bulma’s astonished eyes, Xiaya touched her shoulder and launched Instant Transmission . A beam of light flashed and they returned to Bulma’s underground research lab in West City .
Bulma came back to herself . She was astonished at this ability to instantly return from a thousand miles away .
“Is this the Instant Transmission ability you spoke about?” Bulma asked curiously .
In this world, Goku had not been to Planet Yardrat, nor had he learned the Instant Transmission ability; so, Bulma was very curious about this ability .
“More or less!” Xiaya shrugged .
In fact, his space ability was different from Planet Yardrat’s Instant Transmission, but it was useless to tell this to Bulma . He might as well let her misunderstand it as Instant Transmission .
“Hm?” Xiaya suddenly felt something strange above the ground .
“What happened?”
“It’s Trunks’ Ki . He seems to be fighting someone . ” Xiaya carefully sensed, and then his countenance drastically changed . “Not good! Trunks’ Ki is continuously weakening . The Androids must have caught up . ”
“Ahhh! Then, what do we do?” Hearing that Trunks was battling with the Androids, Bulma anxiously paced around the room .
“I’ll go now!” After that, Xiaya launched Instant Transmission and disappeared from the underground room .
On the other side of West City, Trunks was powerlessly lying on the ground . He spurted blood from his throat as he coughed . Not far from Trunks were a man and a woman — the two Androids, and they were coldly looking at him; their icy-blue eyes were as cold and ruthless as a demon’s, without any waves .
“Trunks, as long as you tell me where your mother, Bulma is, I will spare your life . ” 17 pulled Trunks’ hair, lifting him up .
“Don’t even think about it!” Trunks answered resolutely .
What he got in response was a violent punch . 17 punched hard on Trunks’ stomach, and it seemed like his internal organs shattered as result . Trunks screamed with extreme pain as he spat out gastric juices .
“I’ll give you another chance, so will you tell me or not?” 17 had a frosty expression on his face . His eyes flashed with killing intent as he said in an icy voice .
“You will one day get a punishment for your sins . ”
“…”
17 raised his eyebrows, completely enraged . The arm that was carrying Trunks suddenly exerted force and forcibly tossed Trunks into the air .
“Since you want to die so much, I will help you out . ” 17 revealed a ferocious expression and suddenly gathered an energy ball in his hand . He then threw it toward Trunks .
Hualala!
The raging energy whistled through the air, heading towards Trunks .
17 had made up his mind to kill Trunks .
Seeing that Trunks was going be smashed into pieces by the energy ball, a tall and straight figure suddenly appeared out of thin air, standing in front of Trunks . The person then threw a punch with force towards the energy ball rushing over .
Bang!
The energy ball was suddenly deflected by ninety degrees .
Rumble!
The ground trembled as a giant mushroom cloud rose up, covering the far away corners of the city . After a while, a shock wave swept over, followed by a sound of explosion…
“Who the hell are you?”
17’s face sank as his happy occasion was once again spoiled by someone . His face looked cold as if it was going to form frost .
He could feel that this person, who had suddenly appeared in front of him, was definitely the one who had saved Gohan from his hands yesterday! Although he had only used a portion of the energy within his body, there was almost no one earth who could block that attack . 17 rolled his eyes . Of course, he understood that this person had spoiled his happy occasions again .
Xiaya looked at the two Androids but did not speak; instead, he took out a Senzu Bean from his pocket to feed Trunks . Trunks’ injuries were extremely serious . If he wasn’t treated as soon as possible, his life would be in danger . Eating the Senzu Bean, the rich vitality spread throughout Trunks’ body, and his injuries quickly recovered completely .
“Thank you, Mr . Xiaya,” Trunks said gratefully .
Xiaya frowned and said, “Weren’t you told to keep watch over the research room? How did you run into the Androids? ”
Trunks smiled bitterly . “These Androids were wantonly destroying West City, so I couldn’t stop myself…”
“Umm, got it . You should immediately leave and take Bulma away; West City is not safe,” Xiaya said to Trunks, and then let Trunks leave .
“Okay, I will leave at once!”
Trunks was now thirteen to fourteen years old, enough to make rational judgments . He discerned that West City would soon become a battlefield . It was not suitable to stay here for long . He immediately complied with Xiaya’s instructions and prepared to leave with his mother, Bulma .
“Oh, by the way… if you meet Gohan, tell him to go with you, and when things here have been settled, I will come to find you all . ”
Trunks nodded hard at his words .
