"Of course, you do. It's just that the ki in your body is very weak. Remember, ki can be strengthened through training," Gohan explained.
"It looks similar to what the Androids did," Videl said.
Gohan said, "Androids are technological creations, while ki is energy that everyone has in their body. Although they lead to the same result, they cannot be confused."
"If you want to learn to use ki, the first step is to sense the ki in our bodies, and then guide it out."
"What should I do?" Videl asked.
Gohan looked at her, explained carefully, and demonstrated it once.
"First, relax, calm your mind, concentrate, and imagine guiding the ki to your palm, like this."
As Gohan spoke, he held his hands in front of him as if cradling something.
Slowly, he guided a wisp of ki out.
Immediately, a vortex of ki formed between his palms, which quickly transformed into a shimmering ball of energy.
How amazing, Videl exclaimed in her heart, then closed her eyes and, like Gohan, held her hands as if cradling something, beginning to sense the ki.
Gohan observed her movements and offered guidance.
"You need to be calm, focused, and empty your mind, not use force..."
Hearing Gohan's words, Videl's furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
It was clear that Videl had a very good foundation in martial arts, and she quickly got into the state.
However, sensing ki was not an easy task.
Seeing Videl in meditation, Gohan began practicing his martial arts nearby.
This set of boxing moves combined strength and gentleness, was naturally fluid, and used minimal effort to overcome great force. It was precisely the Tai Chi he had learned in his previous life.
Tai Chi naturally couldn't create earth-shattering effects, but practicing it in leisure was always comfortable and endlessly enjoyable.
Two hours quickly passed.
Videl slowly opened her eyes.
She looked at Gohan, who was sitting nearby, and said, "It's so hard. I still haven't sensed my ki."
Gohan said, "You don't need to be too anxious. Everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you persevere, you will definitely succeed."
"Hmm, I hope so, but I can only stop here for today. I have to rush back to the police station to handle things," Videl said.
"Hmm, alright," Gohan nodded.
Videl then asked, "Can I come tomorrow?"
Gohan said, "Yes."
"Thank you, Gohan-kun."
Videl stood up and bowed to Gohan.
Gohan accepted it calmly.
The kindness of teaching is like a new creation; what is a bow compared to that?
Just then, Videl's phone rang.
Videl answered the call.
"Hello, what? Hmm, I understand. Okay, I'm heading back now."
After hanging up, Videl's expression became anxious, and her brows furrowed deeply.
Gohan noticed her unease and asked, "What's wrong?"
Videl said, "There was a violent incident in East City just now. The criminals have already massacred dozens of people, and the death toll is still rising."
"My team has already rushed to the front line."
"At the speed of a jet, it would take me at least an hour to get back. That's too long. I don't know how many more people will die because of this."
"I have to go back immediately."
As Videl spoke, she took out a capsule and threw it on the ground, and with a "BOOM," it transformed into her jet plane.
"Oh?" Gohan frowned, looking in the direction of East City.
"..."
Then he spoke, "With all due respect, this is probably not a case you can handle."
In the direction of East City, countless powerful auras were emanating.
The strength of these auras was far beyond anything Videl could contend with.
Such ki, are they aliens?
In any case, there couldn't be such powerful individuals on Earth, so they could only be visitors from space.
He just didn't know when these aliens had appeared; he hadn't noticed them.
After all, Gohan couldn't constantly sense the entire Earth 24 hours a day.
Videl looked at him in surprise and said, "Why do you say I can't handle it?"
Gohan said, "Because I can sense the ki of those criminals. They are not beings you can deal with."
"You can sense the criminals' ki from this far away?" Videl asked, incredulous.
"Yes, you'll understand once you learn to use ki later," Gohan said.
Videl pondered for a moment, then said firmly, "No matter what, I have to go back. All my teammates have gone to the front line. How can I hide behind? How will I face everyone after this?"
"Gohan-kun, I can't talk anymore, I have to go."
"..."
Watching Videl hurriedly climb into the plane, Gohan sighed and said, "The plane is too slow. Get down, I'll take you."
It was impossible to rely on Earth's forces to deal with these aliens, so Gohan decided to act.
The current peace was something he had painstakingly won from the Androids, and he would absolutely not allow anyone to destroy it again.
Videl, who was about to close the plane door, paused and said, "You mean you're faster than a jet plane?"
Gohan nodded and said, "Yes, just a tiny bit faster."
"Ah, that's great!" Videl immediately ran off the plane, turned it back into a capsule, and put it away close to her body.
She ran to Gohan, anxiously asking, "What do we do now?"
Gohan squatted down in front of her and said, "Hurry up and get on."
"Ah! C-carry me on your back?" Videl's face turned crimson with embarrassment.
Although she was a bit shy, this was not the time to fuss over such minor things. She immediately jumped onto Gohan's back, wrapped her arms around his neck, and her legs around his waist.
Gohan felt the warm, soft person press against him, but he didn't think much of it, simply cautioning, "Hold on tight."
"Yes, I'm holding on tight," Videl replied.
Then, Gohan wrapped his hands around Videl's long legs, and a silver aura burst from his body.
Immediately after, their figures shot into the sky, becoming a meteor streaking towards East City.
"Ahhhhhh~"
Videl was so scared her guts felt like they were splitting.
This, was this just a "tiny bit" faster than a jet plane?
There were sonic booms; they had clearly surpassed the speed of sound long ago.
Terrifying, absolutely terrifying.
That humans could do such a thing, Videl would never have believed it before.
Flying at lightning speed!
Fortunately, Gohan's aura enveloped her, forming a protective shield; otherwise, with Videl's ordinary human body, the razor-sharp wind would have left her covered in wounds.
Listening to the whistling wind and the popping sonic booms in her ears, Videl's small heart was greatly impacted.
Under such tension, she had long forgotten her shyness, clinging tightly to Gohan's back, wishing they could become one.
At the same time, she kept guessing Gohan's identity, wondering what kind of person he was, her curiosity about him reaching its peak.
At breakneck speed, they soon arrived at East City.
Suddenly stopping, Gohan stood high in the sky with Videl on his back, looking down at the city below.
At this moment, several aliens in strange combat suits were spewing energy from their palms, mercilessly killing one Earthling after another.
In the city, smoke billowed everywhere, police cars weaved through the streets, and police officers were directing people to evacuate.
Just then,
"Boom!"
Another explosion sounded.
Smoke and heat waves erupted, and a building directly disintegrated in the blast, with countless Earthlings dying.
Gohan looked down at the ground and said to Videl, "Do you see? This is not a battle you can participate in."
Videl looked at the tragic scene on the streets, her face turning pale, but she was also extremely angry.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Where did these thugs come from? Their methods are exactly like the Androids from before. These bastards are truly unforgivable!"
Gohan narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the aliens, and said, "They are not Earthlings; they should be aliens."
"A-aliens? Extraterrestrials?" Videl stammered.
"Yes, that's right." Gohan nodded, then raised his hand and pointed a finger.
A burst of energy erupted from his fingertip and shot towards an alien on the ground who was about to cause another massive explosion.
The alien was laughing heartily when he was hit head-on by the energy ray, and with a "boom," he turned into dust.
Gohan pointed a few more fingers, and several more aliens exploded, instantly turning to ashes.
Videl watched all of this dumbfounded, her heart also feeling like it was collapsing, finding it utterly unreal.
"Y-you're so powerful," Videl said in shock.
She then remembered something and continued, "Those two evil Androids were also eliminated by you, weren't they?"
She should have realized it earlier.
The news of the Androids' destruction was revealed to the kingdom by Capsule Corp.
Gohan lived at Capsule Corp.
And his identity was very mysterious; he possessed the ability to fly.
All signs pointed to Gohan.
If not him, then who could it be?
Gohan did not deny it, stating directly, "It was me."
He then added, "You find a place to hide first. I'm going to deal with the remaining aliens now."
As Gohan spoke, he took Videl to a relatively safe hiding spot nearby, then returned to the battlefield, punching and blowing up the alien criminals one by one.
He pressed his finger against the forehead of the last alien, cold light glinting between his two fingers, and asked coldly, "Tell me, where are you from?"
