Master Roshi quickly noticed the expressions on Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama's faces as they looked at him. He coughed lightly and composed himself slightly.
Then, with a dissatisfied expression, he said to Lin Xuan, "What do you want from me? I just took on a few disciples, and they're waiting for me to guide their training!"
Lin Xuan's lips twitched: This pervy old man really knows how to have fun!
Even without Roshi saying it, he knew the so-called disciples were definitely female.
But he couldn't be bothered with such matters and simply ignored Roshi's complaints.
He pointed at Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama and said, "I called you here because I want you to teach them the Evil Containment Wave!"
Hearing this, Roshi was somewhat surprised.
He quickly sized up Hashirama and Madara and asked, "You two want to learn the Evil Containment Wave? Why?"
Though Hashirama and Madara were still skeptical of Roshi's abilities, out of courtesy and their trust in Lin Xuan, Hashirama answered Roshi's question.
He said solemnly, "In our world, there's a terrifying being who seeks to dominate the world and turn everyone into her slaves. We want to learn a way to deal with her."
"I see! So your world is suffering a calamity similar to ours." Roshi sighed.
Hearing this, Madara and Hashirama were also surprised.
Madara asked, "Is your world also experiencing a disaster like ours?"
"That's right!"
Roshi nodded and briefly explained the story of King Piccolo, mentioning how he had attempted to seal Piccolo but failed due to the demon's precautions, ultimately exhausting his energy and dying.
After listening, Madara and Hashirama couldn't help but feel respect for Roshi, realizing they might have misjudged him earlier.
Hashirama then smiled wryly and said, "Master Roshi, no offense, but while your King Piccolo is powerful and cruel, his goal is merely to rule the world. Our Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, however, wants to turn all of humanity into her slaves, forcing them to live forever in dreams, endlessly supplying her with chakra…"
He recounted Kaguya's past deeds and added, "Originally, we planned to use the Edo Tensei to resurrect the Sage of Six Paths and his brother, who sealed her away in the past, and have them deal with Kaguya. But we're worried that, like you, the same method might not work a second time. That's why Lin Xuan suggested we come to you to learn the Evil Containment Wave."
Madara nodded in agreement. "Exactly. The Evil Containment Wave is a technique from another world. Kaguya would never expect it. If the Sage of Six Paths and his brother fail, we can take her by surprise and seal her away!"
"To think such a terrifying being exists! It seems I must teach you the Evil Containment Wave."
Roshi's expression turned completely serious, devoid of his earlier perverted demeanor. He said gravely, "But you must understand—the Evil Containment Wave consumes an immense amount of energy. The stronger the target, the more energy it requires. Once you use it, you must be prepared to face death."
Hearing this, Madara and Hashirama both laughed.
Hashirama chuckled and said, "Don't worry about that, old man. Like you, we were brought to this world by Lin Xuan through Edo Tensei—we're already dead! Why would we fear death?"
Madara also nodded. "That's right. When we return to our world, we'll be fighting in this Edo Tensei state. In this form, our chakra is infinite. We don't have to worry about running out of energy."
Roshi was shocked once more.
He hadn't realized that Hashirama and Madara were planning to fight in their Edo Tensei forms!
At the same time, he thought: If I could return to the Dragon Ball world in this immortal, infinitely powerful Edo Tensei state, why would I need to fear King Piccolo?
His gaze suddenly turned toward Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan knew Roshi had misunderstood—thinking that Madara and Hashirama's ability to fight in Edo Tensei form after returning to their world was his doing.
Lin Xuan explained, "Roshi, Madara and Hashirama are special. Their world already has Edo Tensei. Though it can't cross dimensions like mine, it can summon them back from the Pure Land to fight. Soon, they'll be resurrected by someone in their world."
Roshi understood and felt somewhat disappointed.
He envied Madara and Hashirama's ability to return to the living world to continue fighting.
But then, he caught another implication in Lin Xuan's words and asked, "Wait, you just said they'll be resurrected soon—does that mean you can see their future?"
Lin Xuan smirked. "Of course. Not just theirs—I can also see the future of your world. Once you finish your business here, I'll let you see your world's future, which includes the method to defeat King Piccolo!"
As he spoke, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Because, in truth, he never actually planned to tell Roshi any "method." In the future of the Dragon Ball world, Son Goku would defeat Piccolo and revive Roshi and the others—Roshi just didn't know it yet.
In other words, Lin Xuan's so-called "method" was essentially: Do nothing!
Roshi, unaware of this, perked up at his words and immediately urged Hashirama and Madara, "Then what are we waiting for? Come here—I'll teach you the Evil Containment Wave right now!"
Lin Xuan watched as Roshi taught earnestly while Hashirama and Madara studied seriously. A faint smile played on his lips as he thought:
If Kaguya really gets sealed inside a rice cooker, maybe I can have Madara and Hashirama send her to me through the transdimensional chat group?
He simply felt it would be a shame for Kaguya to remain sealed forever.
And that was the real reason he had Madara and Hashirama learn the Evil Containment Wave!
