Chapter 58 Spirit Bomb
While Goku was adapting to gravity and practicing the Kaioken technique, King Kai mentioned another incredibly powerful move to him—the Spirit Bomb.
"The Spirit Bomb is a powerful technique that draws upon the vital energy of all living things. You need to open your heart and use your purest mind to perceive the energy around you, whether it's mountains, rivers, plants, trees, birds, or beasts; they all contain the vital energy of life. When you establish a spiritual connection with them, they will continuously supply you with vital energy." King Kai sat on his little mushroom house, patiently explaining.
Sun Wukong sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and, following King Kai's teachings, began to calm his mind and try to sense the energy fluctuations on King Kai's planet. At first, his mind was a jumble of thoughts; he could only detect faint auras, like a distant, indistinct call. But he didn't give up. He adjusted his breathing, making his mind more peaceful. Slowly, he began to feel the surrounding plants and trees seem to come alive, their vital energy flowing towards him like a gentle stream. He stretched out his hands, palms facing upwards, trying to gather this vital energy. Gradually, a faint light formed in his hands; although still unstable, it was a good start.
During breaks from training, Goku would chat with King Kai, filled with curiosity about his experiences and the history of King Kai's planet. "Lord Kai, have you always been on King Kai's planet? Have you ever been to Earth?" Goku asked, his eyes wide. King Kai gazed into the distance, lost in thought. "I have spent countless years on King Kai's planet, protecting this world. I have also observed Earth from afar; it is a planet brimming with life and vitality." Goku nodded thoughtfully, then thought of his family and friends on Earth. "I long to become stronger quickly and return to protect Earth. My friends are waiting for me; I cannot let them be harmed." Looking at Goku's determined eyes, King Kai smiled and said, "As long as you persevere in your training, you will surely achieve your wish."
Days passed, and Goku became increasingly proficient in his Kaioken training. He could now execute the 1x Kaioken with relative ease. During one training session, standing on the plains of King Kai's planet, he took a deep breath, his aura instantly surging. "1x Kaioken!" he roared, the light around his body intensifying as power erupted. He moved swiftly, his punches like the wind, each carrying immense force, tearing through the air with a whistling sound. But he wasn't satisfied; his goal was a higher level. He began attempting to break through to the 2x Kaioken.
When he unleashed the double Kaioken at full power, the surrounding space seemed to distort due to the surge of power. His body endured immense pressure, as if it were about to be torn apart by this force, yet his eyes remained unwavering. He gritted his teeth, his mind focused on only one belief: to become stronger. "Son Goku, you can't rush things. Although your body and soul are constantly growing stronger, you must still follow the laws of training," King Kai reminded him from the side. Son Goku took a deep breath, slowly dissipating the power of the Kaioken. "Lord Kai, I understand. I just want to gain the power to protect Earth more quickly. I'm afraid if I return too late, Earth will suffer a terrible fate."
Goku also made great progress in his training with the Spirit Bomb. He discovered that when he sincerely communicated with all things on King Kai's planet, they were willing to share their spiritual energy with him. He wandered through the forests of King Kai's planet, conversing with ancient trees and interacting with lively little animals. He gathered the collected spiritual energy in his hand, and the bright ball of energy emitted a mysterious and powerful aura. As he collected more and more spiritual energy, the energy ball grew larger and larger, and its light became increasingly dazzling.
Goku's interactions with King Kai's pets became more frequent. He would play simple games with Bubbles, such as throwing stones at each other to practice his reflexes. With a swing of Bubbles' enormous arm, stones would fly towards Goku like cannonballs, which Goku would nimbly leap and dodge, then quickly pick up and throw back. Gregory, on the other hand, would pester Goku to tell him stories about Earth. Goku would sit on the ground and vividly describe the mountains and rivers, his friends, and the exciting battles on Earth. Gregory would listen intently, his eyes fixed on Goku, as if he too were in the wondrous world of Earth.
"Earth must be a place full of life and vitality," King Kai said with emotion as he listened to Goku's description. "Yes, Lord King Kai, there are people I love and people who love me there. I must go back," Goku clenched his fist.
Through constant training and interaction, Sun Wukong not only made a tremendous leap in strength but also became more composed in his mindset. He understood that power was not just for fighting, but also for protecting. He learned to feel the power of life in his training and to experience the meaning of harmony and symbiosis in his interactions with all things on King Kai's planet.
His training on King Kai's planet will become a solid foundation for facing even stronger enemies in the future. He is like a star gradually shining brighter through trials, awaiting the moment to return to Earth's skies. He knows that his mission is far from over, and his training on King Kai's planet is merely an important stop on his long journey. In this world with ten times the gravity, he will unleash the infinite potential deep within his soul, carrying King Kai's teachings, newly learned techniques, and the friendship with his pets, to return to Earth and defeat the invading Saiyans.
As time passed, Goku's training on King Kai's Planet entered a new phase. His mastery of the Kaioken technique had reached a remarkably high level, allowing him to switch freely between the 1x and 2x Kaioken, and he was striving to reach even higher multipliers. In a confrontation with the harsh weather on King Kai's Planet, he unleashed the 3x Kaioken, the powerful force forming a shield around his body to withstand the onslaught of wind, rain, and lightning. The howling winds tried to knock him down, but he stood firmly, like an immortal monument on King Kai's Planet.
In terms of mastering the Spirit Bomb, Goku has become proficient at collecting the spiritual energy from King Kai's planet and compressing it into a powerful energy ball.
