I thought this was just going to be a retelling with Caulifa hitching a ride, but I appreciate the effort you've put into making different things happen, particularly characterization (Roshi trying to kick a bad habit, training for Lunch and Bulma, a Goku that's a bit quicker on the uptake) that still seems within reach.

OH I JUST NOTICED I MADE AN ERROR IN MY COMMENT THE OTHER DAY 人参 means ginseng not carrot lol

i couldn't help myself and ended up reading more, this story deserves so much more attention, once again thanks for writing this masterpiece.

I'm going to stop reading here and check back on this when theres more chapters so ill have more to read. and i just wanna say THANK YOU for writing this masterpiece, i think this is truly my favorite fic of all time c:

i looked it up 人参 means carrot...

BROOOO THAT WAS SO FUCKING FUNNY I LOVE THIS FIC SO MUCH

Mad so naother character is added in to ensure that canon continues realitvely unchanged. I don't know why I read so much of this story, it's basically just canon with slightly altered dialog, and any potential change form califlas presence is immediately counter balanced by some other change, making her effectively flavour text as far as the impact she has on the story. Im out.

Why did you change korin to Karin? Your insistency on using the English phonetics of the Japanese techniques at least made some sense, even if it's annoying, but I don't understand Karin at all.

Day 48 of waiting for the newest chapter.
I have compiled a table of when the chapters were released, and how many days were in between. The average time between each chapter is 17.5 days. In 2020, there were 38 chapters, averaging at 9.5 days in between. 2021 had 10 chapters , average of 31 days in between. 2022 has 8 chapters, averaging at 36.25 days in between. The least time between a chapter was 1 day, and most was 133 days. Chapter 57 was posted exactly 1000 days after chapter 1.

The next chapter gonna be insane

Incredible story so far! Can't wait for the next chapter! Hope that you update this again soon!

Really great story I cant wait for more I hope we see more of bardock and gine. And will goku be more powerful since he has a training partner and how will vegeta be convinced to fight for the good fight and when's the next chapter going to be.

You know ironically despite the evil intent Chichi is right in the wish she wants to get if she wants to actually keep up. Those power ups get insane later on lol

This should change a LOT of things. Bardock was pretty powerful to begin with, so if you still have Frieza around it's going to need an explanation. Beyond that their race is rather inclined towards destruction, and I really can't see king Vegeta being a good guy, so it's going to take a lot to make a good saiyan race.

Nice fight scene :)
