Time flew by.
It had already been three months since Talot and the other two returned from the Demon Realm.
Following Chronoa's suggestion, Talot and Bardock temporarily took up residence in the Time Nest.
While adjusting their own states, they were also helping Bardock wear down the demonic seed planted within his body.
During these three months, Talot's base strength became even more solid. Perhaps because he was within the Time Nest, his comprehension of the power of space-time advanced to an even higher level.
Although his power level did not see any particularly remarkable increase, his attainments in the power of space-time rose. Such an opportunity was something that could only be encountered by chance, not sought after.
Aside from Talot's gains, Future Vegeta and Bardock also received considerable opportunities.
After three months of consolidation, the current Future Vegeta had perfectly mastered Super Saiyan 4 • Limit Breaker transformation.
With his strength explosively increased, he felt incomparably exhilarated, and from time to time he would engage in deep discussions with Talot about methods of training God Ki and ways to develop Saiyan's bloodline power.
When he fought Talot before, he had sensed that vast Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power within Talot's body. That too was a form of Saiyan power, and Future Vegeta's thoughts settled on this aspect.
As the Prince of the Saiyans, no matter which timeline's Vegeta it was, he cared immensely about his own training.
If he could also master the Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power like Talot, then he would truly be able to completely leave Kakarot behind!
Talot did not hide anything from Future Vegeta and told him about his understanding and training methods regarding the Great Ape's power.
As for whether Future Vegeta could learn Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power, that would depend on himself. After all, so far, the only person who had learned Great Ape • Legendary Super Saiyan power was Talot himself.
Raditz and Salari had trained for so many years without grasping even the slightest bit of it.
As for Bardock, he had made the greatest progress among the three. Although his body had been modified by people from the Demon Realm, his strength had grown explosively. Coupled with these three months in the Time Nest, he no longer needed to rely on God Ki suppression to cleanse the demonic seed within his body.
That demonic seed could no longer cause him even the slightest harm. He had even turned the tables and brought the demonic seed under his control!
By perfectly integrating the power of the demonic seed into his body, Bardock walked a different path.
Evil power!
Within the heart of every Saiyan lies an inherent source of evil power. It was stimulated by the demonic seed and mastered by Bardock.
Now, Bardock had transformed into the legendary Evil Saiyan!
His strength exploded in growth. While controlling his evil heart, he did not lose himself. For Bardock, who was desperate to grow stronger, this was a good outcome.
Talot was also extremely shocked that Bardock had mastered evil power.
In the end, he had underestimated Bardock.
As a transmigrator, how could he not know about the legendary Evil Saiyan?
Among those who embodied evil power, the most prominent representative was the Evil Saiyan • Cumber who appeared in the Dragon Ball Heroes storyline.
That fierce strength directly crushed forms such as Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue.
Bardock mastering evil power and transforming into an Evil Saiyan did not worry him; instead, he felt happy for Bardock.
But in the eyes of the Supreme Kai of Time • Chronoa, the situation was different.
Evil power was ultimately an uncontrollable factor. She urged Bardock to abandon this power and use God Ki to deeply cleanse his inner self, completely severing this evil power.
However, Bardock mercilessly rejected this proposal.
No one understood his body better than Bardock.
The evil released by the Demon Realm crystal within his body had long been washed clean by God Ki.
This current evil power came from himself, from his soul!
In his view, the power brought by a Saiyan's evil heart was not trouble at all!
Power itself has no right or wrong; it is the user and the way it is used that determine everything!
Seeing this, Chronoa could only shake her head helplessly and let Bardock do as he wished. As long as trouble didn't come to her.
…
At this very moment, within Conton City of the Time Nest.
Inside a massive battle arena.
Bardock and Talot were there.
"So this is the place the Time Patrollers usually use for battles? I hope it won't break that easily." Bardock's gaze swept across the arena environment as he spoke casually.
Three months of consolidation had made him restless.
Ever since being rescued, he had always wanted to properly face Talot in battle, but unfortunately there had never been the opportunity.
Now that his body had recovered to its peak state and he had mastered evil power, it was the perfect time to fight to his heart's content.
He could no longer restrain his fighting genes. His hands itched unbearably, craving battle.
"Judging from how sturdy this place is, it probably won't break that easily. Besides, it's reinforced by the power of space-time. We should be able to fight freely." Talot's lips curled upward as he chuckled.
"It's been three months!! For these three months, I've wanted to truly test your strength. Now I finally have the chance. Talot, you're not allowed to hold back later, or I won't forgive you!!" Even before the battle began, Bardock said this to Talot.
"Don't worry, I know my limits. On the contrary, Uncle Bardock, you'd better be careful next. Don't get knocked down by me in one blow and end up lying in the Time Nest for ten days or half a month. Otherwise, we'll just be delaying things again." Talot teased with a smile.
"If you really have that ability, I wouldn't mind at all!" Bardock replied with a grin.
