Dragon Ball: Super Goten

Chapter 69 Betrayal, the Android Siblings!

After Vegeta defeated Android 19, Dr. Gero secretly slipped away. Goten was about to give chase when Vegeta stopped him. Goten then said to Trunks, "If you don't hurry, Dr. Gero will release Androids 17 and 18. Even if you're confident you can defeat them, you need to find them first, right?"

Upon hearing this, Trunks had no choice but to say to Vegeta, "He's right. Now is not the time for infighting. The most urgent thing is to deal with the androids first. After we've dealt with the androids, we can then carefully inquire about the boy's specific background."

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to scatter and search for Dr. Gero. Goten, relying on details from watching Dragon Ball before, flew straight towards Dr. Gero's headquarters without even glancing back. This decisive attitude immediately caught Piccolo's attention, so Piccolo followed directly behind Goten...

As Goten landed near Dr. Gero's base, he looked around and then chose to hide in a pile of weeds to observe secretly...

Piccolo then appeared behind Goten and said, "You seem to know about that guy's lair. If so, why did you hide it from us? Didn't you come here to destroy the Androids...?"

Goten, without turning his head, said, "If possible, I still hope no one gets hurt. But if there's no other way, then I'm out of options. Trunks might not agree, but I want to guide the androids towards good. After all, having more friends is always better than having more enemies. Nobody likes a hopeless future, right?" Piccolo remained silent, observing from the side...

On the other side, Vegeta, who noticed that Goten's aura had suddenly stopped, finally realized that something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that the kid must have known about the Androids' hideout in advance, so he broke away from him and planned to fight the Androids first. Thinking of this, Vegeta immediately activated his aura and rushed towards Goten's location.

The other Z Fighters, upon discovering that Goten's aura had stopped moving, also rushed towards his location...

Dr. Gero finally arrived at the base. After looking around and finding that Goten and the others hadn't caught up yet, he opened a secret door and entered the laboratory. Upon seeing this, Goten immediately pulled out a pair of sunglasses and, like a secret agent, quickly went to the door. He also looked around and opened the secret door, then gestured to Piccolo. Piccolo was slightly speechless, but still followed Goten's steps...

The two entered the laboratory and eavesdropped on Dr. Gero's mutterings—"That wretched brat, he thought he admired me, but he's just here to get in my way..." Goten was speechless upon hearing this. It was clearly the brat who wouldn't listen and insisted on causing trouble, leaving him no choice...

Dr. Gro continued to mutter to himself, "But you'll soon see what happens. Once I release Androids 17 and 18, you're finished. But... will they really obey my orders? (Thinks for a moment) What if... (After a slight hesitation, he steels himself and makes up his mind) Never mind, let's release them first." Then he began to release Androids 17 and 18.

Piccolo was about to break down the door when Goten stopped him, whispering, "Wait a little longer, just a little while longer..."

As soon as Androids 17 and 18 opened their hatches and emerged from their hibernation pods, Goten, seeing his opportunity, took two steps back, preparing for a stylish crash. But just then, the hidden door was blasted open by an energy blast. Turning around, he saw Vegeta. Before Goten could speak, Vegeta had already walked in, looked at the second iron door, and smashed it to pieces with a single punch…

Upon seeing the approaching group, Dr. Groh immediately ordered Androids 17 and 18 to attack and defeat the enemies before them. Just then, Trunks and the others arrived. After seeing the appearance of Androids 17 and 18, Trunks exclaimed in horror, "Those two are the terrifying androids who will run rampant in the future! Damn it... they were still released!"

Vegeta laughed smugly and said, "Oh! Looks like I can finally show off my skills. All of you get out of the way and watch how I use the power of a Super Saiyan to teach them a lesson!"

Trunks immediately shouted to Vegeta, "Stop! Without Mr. Goku, we have no chance of winning. Let's run away first!"

Vegeta was furious upon hearing this and yelled at Trunks, "Shut up! Even without Kakarot, I can still take care of them! (Turning to Androids 17 and 18 and shouting) You two, bring it on!"

Android 17 then noticed a hibernation pod nearby and suddenly became interested. He walked up to the pod and was about to open it when Dr. Groh immediately shouted, "What are you doing? Stop right now! That's not something you can just release! Your enemies are those guys!"

However, Number 17 ignored him and insisted on opening the hibernation pod. Seeing this, Dr. Gro pulled out the remote control and threatened, "Damn it! Didn't you hear me? Go and deal with those guys. Don't forget, I can stop your operation at any time!"

Just as Dr. Gero was still making threats, Android 18 had silently appeared behind him and snatched the remote control that controlled him and his sister. Dr. Gero was shocked and asked, "What do you want to do!"

Just as Android 18 was about to deliver a powerful blow to Dr. Gero, Goten swiftly launched a flying kick from behind, sending Android 18 flying away. Upon seeing this, Android 17 disregarded her hibernation pod and immediately charged towards Goten. Goten grabbed Dr. Gero and jumped back away.

At this moment, Android 18 smashed the remote control, went to Android 17's side, and said fiercely to Goten, "You wretched brat, how dare you kick me! You just wait!"

Goten then began to tease Dr. Gero: "So, Dr. Gero, why did you spend so much time and effort creating this thing? In the end, it still rebelled, didn't it? Oh well, you should learn your lesson..."

Dr. Gro continued, "Damn it, they actually betrayed me! I know, next time I'll definitely make something that won't disobey me..."

Seeing that Dr. Gero had completely misunderstood, Goten delivered a double flying kick to Dr. Gero's face, while complaining, "You didn't listen to a word I said!"

A powerful kick knocked Dr. Gero unconscious on the spot. Seeing Dr. Gero's nonchalant attitude, Goten was speechless. But since he was already there, he could only continue. So Goten said to Android 17 and 18, "I'm sorry, although I know you hate that guy, I can't let you kill him right now. But now that you have such great power, even if you don't obey his orders, what do you want to do?"

Number 17 replied: "Is there any need to say more? Just kill whoever you don't like, isn't that fun? You agree, Number 18."

Number 18 chimed in, "That's right, Number 17. Why not just take care of all the guys we don't like?"

Goten then said, "Since that's what you think, then I'll have to play along. However, we have three Super Saiyans on our side. In order not to bully you, you should release the guy in the hibernation pod, and we'll have a fair 3v3 competition."

Trunks was stunned upon hearing this. After realizing what was happening, he loudly questioned Goten, "What are you saying! Two of those demons are already troublesome enough, and you..."

However, Vegeta chimed in, "Shut up! You're supposed to be a Saiyan, don't you have any Saiyan dignity? No matter what the enemy is, Saiyans aren't afraid. That expression of yours is a disgrace to Saiyans..."

However, Trunks ignored everything and unleashed his Super Saiyan power, shouting, "I don't care about Saiyan dignity! I absolutely do not want... such a hopeless... future to happen again!" With that, an explosive wave was released!
