Bloodline power? Thinking of this, Rhode frowned. Bloodline is simple to talk about, but truly comprehending it is not that easy. So-called bloodline is even more mysterious than so-called genes; unless he completely masters the Ultimate Modification Technique, he might be able to fully understand bloodline power, otherwise it's basically impossible. But if he waits for the Ultimate Modification Technique to be completed, won't that take forever?
No, no, no, he must be overthinking it. The original Super Saiyan 4, whether it was the Super Saiyan 4 from GT or the Super Saiyan 4 from the Great Demon arc, definitely wasn't that complicated. After all, if he completely mastered Saiyan power, mastering the so-called bloodline power, wouldn't that mean reaching the limit of power and being unable to improve further? This is clearly impossible.
Rhode thought carefully. In GT, Goku's transformation into Super Saiyan 4 was due to his attachment to and protection of Earth, and his feelings for his family and friends. This ultimately led to his sublimation, shrinking from the Golden Great Ape state, and finally transforming into Super Saiyan 4. Similar to Goku, after Vegeta was exposed to intense Blutz Waves and transformed into a Great Ape, he too regained his sanity and transformed into a Golden Great Ape, then successfully transformed into Super Saiyan 4, because Earth was facing a crisis, and after Goku's persuasion and everyone's expectations. Although the Super Saiyan 4 in the Great Demon arc was different from GT, Goku also conceived the idea of developing Super Saiyan 4 because he wanted to better protect Earth, his family, and friends, and confront powerful enemies. He finally succeeded in transforming in the Great Demon Realm.
With this in mind, Rhode couldn't help but frown. Could it be that to successfully transform into Super Saiyan 4, one needs this kind of protective emotion as a catalyst? Does he have something he urgently wants to protect? Regarding this, even Rhode himself wasn't very clear. Although his feelings with Aira grew deeper, as for whether he would abandon everything for her, even Rhode himself wasn't sure if he would do that.
After all, what existed more in his heart was the idea that as long as there's life, there's hope. In his opinion, no matter what unsolvable problem he encountered, as long as he could preserve himself, there would be hope for a comeback, and then everything lost could be recovered. This was the self-confidence of a transmigrator, and also a kind of arrogance.
Thinking of this, Rhode fell silent. Perhaps, deep down, he didn't truly see himself as a person of this world, still maintaining the lofty, so-called transmigrator mentality. This was also why Rhode had been unable to break through to Super Saiyan for a long time, but after transmigrating to the world of One-Armed Gohan, merely confirming that it was a world where One-Armed Gohan fought alone, his heart surged, and he was stimulated to transform. Although he was already halfway to becoming a Super Saiyan at that time, the surge in his emotions was not anger, but rather a transmigrator's perspective of regret or sympathy for One-Armed Gohan fighting alone.
Although Rhode usually maintained a gentle demeanor on the surface, deep down, he always treated everything around him with a superior attitude. This was also why his emotions rarely fluctuated due to the people and events around him. As for Aira, after living together for a long time, feelings would naturally develop, and he would accept them. But as for how deep they were, perhaps even Rhode himself wasn't sure.
Emotional catalyst, something to protect? Thinking about what he lacked to truly achieve Super Saiyan 4, Rhode became somewhat silent in contemplation.
"Ah..." After a long while, Rhode couldn't help but let out a self-deprecating laugh, feeling a bit exasperated. He had already come to this world, become a part of it, and formed bonds with everything around him. Since that was the case, why hold back? Even if he was unwilling to admit it, he had already become an inseparable part of this world.
All these years, the little moments spent with Aira, the interactions, communications, and time spent with the people on Earth, how could they be false? If one day, an unimaginable enemy were to destroy all of this in front of him, would he remain indifferent? Rhode asked himself this question. He thought about it, thinking of Aira, with whom he had lived for many years, thinking of Bulma, whom he had watched grow up, and thinking of those little ones. It seemed he couldn't remain indifferent.
"Hoo!" With this thought, Rhode exhaled deeply. It seemed that the opportune moment for him to break through to Super Saiyan 4 had not yet arrived; his mindset needed to change.
Having understood this, Rhode dispersed the power of the Golden Great Ape from his body, no longer persisting, and then focused his attention on the research of various techniques. However, he thought of Space-Time power, Intermediate Modification Technique, Forced Fusion Technique, Ultra Instinct Technique, and other things he wanted to research, such as the improvement of Kaio-ken and Mafuba.
Besides that, there was also research into higher power for special moves, the comprehension of Super Saiyan God, and the research into the God Realm, and so on. With so many research directions, even if he alone possessed extraordinary comprehension abilities, he would be overwhelmed.
After some thought, he immediately turned his attention to the Clone Technique. The Clone Technique learned from Planet Yardrat had a similar effect to the Shadow Clone Technique in Naruto; the separated clones could not only act independently, but their experiences would also have independent memories. When they were recalled, those memories would also be shared with the main body. This was true whether it was the experiences of the clone collecting Androids technology in the One-Armed Gohan world, or the experiences of the clone helping Goku and others in the Slug movie's parallel world. Each clone, except for the difference in power from the main body, had almost no difference in personality and intelligence.
Given this, why not use this to create clones, letting each clone research a technique? Wouldn't this achieve twice the result with half the effort? Thinking of this, Rhode's eyes lit up. Why hadn't he thought of this before?
Moreover, having clones research these techniques had another unique and huge advantage: it could fully utilize the time difference inside and outside the Time Chamber. Although clones had the same personality and intelligence as the main body and could act freely, they were not the main body after all, and even if they were in the Time Chamber, they would not consume the main body's lifespan. In fact, it's not just that they don't consume lifespan; because clones are the essence, qi, and spirit separated from the main body, it seems there's no problem even if they don't eat or drink!
At this moment, thinking of the many conveniences of having clones research those techniques, Rhode was filled with regret. If he had done this earlier, wouldn't he have made significant progress already?
Regret was useless, so Rhode immediately took action, directly creating ten clones in one go, each with a power level of about 100 million. Immediately, he assigned each of these clones corresponding study and research directions. Afterward, Rhode opened a spatial gate and walked out. This was just an attempt. He needed to observe the clones' consumption in the Time Chamber and then make adjustments, allocating the most suitable power to the clones to achieve optimal efficiency.
As soon as Rhode stepped out of the spatial gate, he saw Aira in the courtyard, seemingly waiting for someone. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you doing?"
