Somewhere near Ginger Town a mysterious machine lands. A creature crawls out of the machine and buries itself in the ground, disappearing beneath the surface of the Earth.

Meanwhile, outside of Capsule Corporation, Kintaro flies off holding a capsule. He flies to a forest near West City but far enough away, so he won't be disturbed by the incessant noise of the city. He opens the capsule which contained a house. He sighs. He really didn't want one, but he won't complain. He looks around the lush forest, never having felt so at peace. He smiles to himself. He flies upwards, enjoying the feeling of the wind on his face.

He lands on Kami's lookout, where Piccolo was meditating. 

"Piccolo! You know why I'm here." Kintaro says, a smile plastered on his face. Piccolo looks up from his meditation. He smiles back. The two the rush towards each other and punch each other so hard they fly off the lookout. 

Once they recover, they smirk at each other and rush towards each other again this time their fists colliding. Using his other hand, Piccolo fires an Explosive Demon Wave, pushing Kintaro back. Piccolo follows up by stretching his arm and repeatedly punching Kintaro.

Eventually, Kintaro recovers and deflects the punches and speeds in close. Once he was close enough pummels Piccolo with a series of rapid punches, and knocks him upward with a powerful uppercut. 

"Good to see you haven't been slacking off." Piccolo remarked once he recovered. "Don't think I'll let you do that again."

The two charge at each other again, their sparring session shaking the skies.

_________

The two land on the lookout, bruised and slightly bloodied, but smiling all the same. Piccolo teleports his cloak and turban back to him, while Kintaro heals them.

"You never cease to impress, Kintaro." Piccolo says once he's healed up.

"Right back at you buddy." Kintaro replies. "Hey is your gear still weighted?"

"Yes. Why?"

"Could you make me some weighted gear? Like some wrist and ankle bands?"

"Oh yeah sure." Piccolo says, and fires a small beam out of fingers. The wrist and ankle bands appear and Kintaro can immediately feel the weight.

"Jeez how heavy did you make these things?" Kintaro says, flexing his arm, taking note of how much effort it takes. Piccolo smirks at him.

"Well, you never told me how much weight, so I just gave you 6 tons." 

"Jerk."

(Author's Note: You may be wondering why 6 tons. The heaviest deadlift ever recorded was 1100 pounds by Eddie Hall. Multiplied by 10, due to Planet Vegeta having 10 times Earth's gravity and you have 11,000 pounds. So to truly test his limits he will be dealing with 6 tons.)

Kintaro flies back down to his new home. He starts to meditate like Piccolo taught him. He was going to enjoy his new life.

JANUARY AGE 764

Kintaro is farther out in the forest than usual. He has begun to explore the area he calls home now, finding the scenery beautiful. He's meditating out here when he hears a twig snap. His eyes snap open. He doesn't look around yet but listens closer. He can hear a soft rustling in the greenery. He also feels eyes on him. Piccolo has been teaching him how to properly sense ki. He takes a deep breath and focuses and scans the area. He locks onto a ki signature nearby. Its not an animal but a person. 

"Speak." Kintaro shouts, suddenly. No response. Kintaro sighs, and with incredible speed gets behind the person who was watching him.

"Hello there." Kintaro says in a slightly annoyed tone. The person nearly jumps out of their skin and whips around.

"Oh! Jesus! Don't do that!" the person says, now revealed to be a woman. 

"State your business." 

"Hiking. What about you?"

"I live here."

"Seriously?

"Yes." 

The woman looks at him, like he has two heads. She shifts the weight of her backpack. And then she notices something.

"Is that a tail?" she asks.

"Yes." Kintaro replies.

"Why do you have it? Is it attached to you? Are you a furry?" 

"Born with it. Yes, it's attached to me, and what's a furry?"

Kintaro and the woman talk for a while. He is somewhat awkward due to not having much interaction with humans. She doesn't seem to mind though. They walk and talk for a long time.

"So, let me get this straight. You are one of the last remaining members of a alien species that's known for conquering worlds?" she asks.

"Yes."

"Interesting. You are a very interesting person."

"As are you."

"My name is Arima by the way."

"Arima. That's a nice name."

Eventually, Arima has to leave. The two part ways. Though Kintaro can't help but think about her.

Meanwhile far out in space, a villain who was thought to be dead opens his eyes again. Fueled by vengeance, he makes his way to Earth.
