The next day, inside a hidden cave…

Gohan was sitting quietly.

In front of him was General Hisoka.

The general looked nervous. It was clear he wanted to ask what happened last night but he was hesitant.

Gohan looked at him for a moment then spoke calmly,

"I'll tell you everything."

And just like that, he explained the whole fight and what happened… how things went out of control… everything.

"Android 17… Lapis… is confirmed dead and Android 18… she'll most likely die too."

"…There's no body."

General Hisoka listened carefully, not saying a single word.

After a moment, he stepped closer and gently placed a hand on Gohan's shoulder.

His eyes were wet… tears slowly rolling down.

Gohan noticed… and stepped back.

"I didn't come here for Your thanks " he said calmly.

"I came for something important."

There was a short silence.

"…I'll be leaving Earth for a while."

General Hisoka froze.

"Leaving Earth…?" he repeated as Then he frowned, confused.

"Humans can't just go to space like that… without food, without support…"

He looked at Gohan carefully… then sighed.

"…Right. You're not a normal human anyway."

Gohan gave a small nod.

"The reason I'm telling you all this is simple."

"I know you've been watching that fight… or at least starting of it and I also know the truth."

Gohan's eyes sharpened.

"In this entire city… the real power isn't the king."

"It's you."

"The king is just a face… someone to make people feel safe."

General Hisoka went silent.

Then slowly… he nodded.

"…You're right."

He took a deep breath and looked away.

"In this world of war… this city is the last one standing."

"Countries… governments… leaders and Most of them are gone as Some destroyed themselves because of greed But in the end… almost all of it fell because of Android's."

He clenched his fists.

"There was even one idiot The Prwsident of a country as He tried to invite the androids into his country as He offered them power… political control… everything."

General Hisoka let out a bitter laugh.

"…He called it a 'free nation for ANDROID's But the androids didn't care about any of that."

His voice turned cold.

"They wiped out the entire country....Him included and just like that That nation became history."

As General Hisoka took a deep breath, then spoke slowly,

"I've seen how stupid leaders divide people just to gain power even in this time."

His eyes turned cold.

"Even our own country in the East had the same kind of leader."

"So we acted as you know i was Military Commander and We planned a coup and We removed them from power and the military took control."

He paused for a moment.

"But even then people needed hope as They needed a face or someone strong or someone they could believe in That's why we kept public figures like Mr. Satan and the King."

"People see them and feel safe as They believe someone is protecting them."

He looked at Gohan seriously.

"Because in the end hope is the only thing humans have left and after losing everything that hope is what keeps them alive."

Gohan listened quietly… then nodded.

"That's exactly why I'm telling you all this, General Hisoka You've seen things.. things normal people can't even imagine such as plans of red ribbon army and their tech's you have taken and found out There are beings out there beyond this planet."

"And Earth is not completely safe anymore."

His voice became heavy.

"The warriors who used to protect this planet most of them are gone."

"So while I'm away…"

Gohan looked straight into his eyes.

"I need someone to watch over Earth and that someone is you."

He gave a small nod.

"You've done well so far. You've protected the people who are still alive."

General Hisoka stayed silent and taking in every word.

Then Gohan continued,

"But I'm not leaving without a reason as I'm going for something important."

He paused… then said calmly,

"If everything goes well…then everyone who died because of the androids i mean All the innocent people and all the destroyed nations they can be brought back."

And For a second there was Silence.

Then General Hisoka's eyes widened as His whole body trembled.

"Y-You mean My daughter… Illumi My grandchildren they can come back?"

His voice shook with emotion.

He looked at Gohan like he was seeing a miracle At first, it sounded impossible But then he remembered This was the same man who defeated the androids.

The same man who carried power beyond understanding.

Slowly… very slowly…Hope appeared in his eyes and in his eyes Gohan was No less that Messiah to human kind.

As Gohan stood up and gave a small smile.

"That's why… I'm leaving."

As He looked at General Hisoka calmly.

"It might take weeks or maybe even months."

"Until then keep watching things here as I'm 100% sure Android 17 is dead but Android 18… I'm not sure."

His eyes turned serious.

"So you need to make sure the humans stay safe and thenslowly lift the lockdown and Don't rush it. Open things step by step."

General Hisoka nodded.

At that moment, he stood up and walked toward Gohan… then bowed deeply.

"Mr. Gohan on behalf of all humanity… thank you...Thank you for defeating the android for saving us and for trying to bring everyone back…"

His voice was full of emotion.

Gohan was a little shocked. He quickly stepped back.

"Please… don't do that."

General Hisoka looked up at him.

"You already know the truth about the King."

"You know the real power on this planet is us and after you arrived it became you."

He took a deep breath.

"When you come back after bringing everyone back You should become our leader or in simple term Our ruler."

His voice was serious now.

"We need someone strong and wise as The world is broken and when people will be revived then People will devide once again and We don't need more chaos…"

"We need stability."

Gohan stayed silent for a moment… then shook his head.

"No..I'm not a leader...We can talk about that later."

"But right now I don't have time as it moving "

Deep inside, Gohan knew something.

He wasn't a saint and If he ever took full control with this much power he has He might become something dangerous Something worse than Even Androids more like Homelander but more Powerful and that was exactly what he didn't want.

He had already felt how power was changing him and His Saiyan instincts pushing him for More powerand for more control and If he gave in He might become a monster.

And Gohan didn't want that.

After a while, he looked up at the sky and then left the hidden cave as He flew straight toward Mount Paozu There, he gathered supplies like his clothes, food… everything he needed.

He even hunted around thirty wild boars for storage.

After that, he returned to the hidden base at Capsule Corporation and That night, he sat with Bulma, going through all the computer data.

Hours passed…

But they found nothing useful Just normal recordings.

Gohan frowned.

"There has to be something related to that hidden lab or to that secret room"

But no matter how much they searched and found Nothing.

The next day…

Everything was ready

Gohan stood outside the building of the dark Capsule Corporation as In front of him were Bulma, Dr. Brief, Baby Trunks sleeping in Bulma's Arm, Chi-Chi.

Chi-Chi stepped forward first. Her eyes were soft, but worried.

"Gohan take care of yourself, okay?"

Bulma crossed her arms, trying to sound casual.

"And hey… don't forget, you can use telapathy so keep us Informed and I've already loaded the ship with movies, cartoons a lot of stuff So you won't get bored."

Then her voice softened.

"Just stay safe out there."

Dr. Brief didn't say anything as He just looked at Gohan and let out a quiet sigh. As Gohan smiled a little, then turned and entered the spaceship.

He looked back one last time.

"I'll be back."

And With that, he pressed the button as The engines roared as Flames burst out beneath the ship

And in the next second, it shot straight into the sky.Faster and faster and Everything below started to shrink and The city,the land and the people All becoming smaller and smaller.

Soon Only darkness and stars as Gohan looked outside.

"So this is space."

Then a voice came from the system

"Destination: Planet Namek."

"Arrival time: 10 days."

"Entering high-speed mode."

"Please rest."

The ship suddenly boosted forward and shot through deep space and For Gohan This was a new journey and A new experience.

Meanwhile… back on Earth.

In a quiet forest

A small deer walked to a river and drank some water and After that, it moved toward the grass to eat then suddenly It stopped as Someone was lying there and A body covered in dirt and blood with Black hair and Barely breathing.

As The deer blinked and was confused. Then it walked back to the river, took some water in its mouth and came back as It gently splashed the water onto the person's face.

Slowly The person's eyes opened as it has Blue eyes,Black hair and It was her Lazuli Android 18 as She tried to sit up

"Ah…!"

Pain hit her whole body as She trembled, barely able to move and After a moment, she reached out and gently touched the deer as The animal calmly continued eating grass.

Lazuli slowly crawled toward the river and drank some water and Then she leaned against a tree, breathing heavily.

Her eyes moved to the sky.

"I survived Barely"

Her lips trembled.

"But my brother Lapis"

Tears rolled down her face as Her voice broke as She covered her face and cried silently.

"The things we did While being Controlled ...they came back to us…"

She gave a weak, broken chuckle as tears kept falling.
