At the Totsuki Resort, used for VIP vacations by Totsuki Academy-
The Totsuki's Elite Ten, including Erina, were bustling about, carrying plate after plate of dishes into the banquet hall.
This time, they were serving only three people, but it was even more exhausting than their first-year training camp, where they had to make 100 dishes alone.
The Totsuki's staff present, the Nakiri Sisters, the Nakano Quintuplets, and Hancock, who had just arrived from the Planet Pirate, watched with stunned expressions.
Seated in the center of the banquet hall were Lott, Big T, and the little girl called 'Pan'.
Whenever one of the Elite Ten set down a plate, within five seconds, it would be devoured by the trio.
They didn't even need staff to clear the plates specifically.
Just set it down, wait three seconds, take the plate back to the kitchen to wash, and bring out the next dish.
Slurp Slurp!
Watching Pan swallow the soba noodles she had prepared in one gulp, Kinokuni Nene's eyebrow twitched uncontrollably.
Kuga Terunori, who had brought out two large plates of Mapo Tofu, couldn't help but mutter in his heart:
'They eat even more than Senior Kobayashi...'
Bulma, resting her chin on her interlaced fingers, recalled some unpleasant memories and complained:
"They really are from the same race as Goku."
Clatter!
After the Elite Ten had lost count of how many dishes they had served and plates they had cleared-
As Lott set down his spoon, the 'battle' finally came to an end.
"Aahh, I'm full~" Lott stretched lazily with a blissful expression.
"Aunt Erina's cooking is still the best," Pan patted her slightly bulging belly and licked a bit of sauce from the corner of her mouth, looking like she wanted more.
Erina, who was just about to serve them dessert, stumbled upon hearing this.
Lott saw this and grabbed the back of Erina's collar to steady her.
Pan and Big T simply reached out and caught the pastries that flew out.
"Be careful," Lott said, letting go.
"Th-thank you..." Erina's former pride as the [God Tongue] and Queen of Totsuki was nowhere to be seen in front of Lott.
Her eyes couldn't help but glance a few more times at the girl named 'Pan'.
'Aunt Erina...'
'This child... knows the future me?'
"Alright, now that we're full, let's go home," Lott cracked his neck and said to the two.
"No way!"
Before Big T and Pan could respond-
Miku, Hancock, and others quickly surrounded them.
Mrs. Briefs blinked, "My, everyone is so enthusiastic~"
Bulma, like her mother, showed an expression of enjoying the drama, "Mhm, mhm. After all, they know these two are from the future. They must be curious about what happened, like what their relationship with that guy Lott turned out to be."
Hancock first fixed her gaze on Pan, who shared her same black hair, trying her best to put on a gentle, affectionate smile.
"Well~, little sister... no, little one, you must be my future daughter, right? Look how much we look alike~~"
"Not alike at all," Nami muttered softly from behind.
Apart from the hair color, Pan and Hancock didn't look similar at all!
But she didn't dare say that out loud.
"Nope, Aunt Hancock," Pan said bluntly.
"Your womb wasn't up to the task, you never had any children, and could only help the other aunts look after theirs."
Hancock and her entire background instantly turned gray.
"Nee-san!"
As Hancock was about to collapse in despair, Sandersonia and Marigold rushed forward to support her.
"Pan, maybe we shouldn't reveal too much about the future?" Big T said with a nervous sweatdrop.
'Judging by Aunt Hancock's expression just now, she probably felt like dying.'
"Why worry? What we do in this timeline won't affect the one we came from. The moment we arrived in this time, the two timelines separated, becoming so-called 'parallel worlds'," Pan lectured her big brother, adding under Big T's stunned gaze, "Mhm, Aunt Bulma said so."
Bulma, who had been silently eating her dessert at the next table, froze.
'Huh?'
'They know me too?'
'Em... I guess it's not that surprising.'
'After all, I'm quite familiar with Lott.'
'Maybe we maintained a good relationship later.'
"So we don't need to be so cautious, we can say whatever we want," Pan said cheerfully.
"My name is Pan. I'm Dad's child, born on Earth."
Halfway through, Pan pointed at Big T and added, "This guy is Trunks, Dad's eldest son. But he's too serious and boring, I don't really like playing with him."
Big T silently shed a cold sweat.
'An unreliable father, a bunch of aunts whose names I could barely remember...'
'If I weren't responsible, this family would fall apart.'
"So, you were both born on Earth? Does that mean Lott-kun has no children born on Planet Terra in the future?" Utaha, dressed elegantly, looked intently at the two, trying to extract information about 'Sayaka'.
Hearing this, Big T and Pan glanced at each other.
Pan turned her head away, clearly not wanting to answer.
Big T wore a slightly awkward expression as he said, "Actually, according to the original history, Planet Terra and over a dozen planets in the South Galaxy would be destroyed due to Dad losing control of his power this time."
"Then, Aunt Chika, Aunt Alice, and the others, led by Uncle Genos, would go to Earth. After that, once Dad had vented his power, he also went to Earth to reunite with them. Our family lived on Earth for a while after that..."
Many present secretly gasped.
Leonora took a shallow breath, her ample bosom heaving dramatically before she said, voice trembling, "Then... the billions of people left on Planet Terra..."
"Died," Big T replied with an awkward laugh.
When he saw Leonora, Big T noted inwardly, 'Grandma Leonora really maintained herself well, she hadn't changed much in all the years I'd known her.'
But immediately, Big T recalled some unpleasant memories.
It was when he was about seven or eight and was passing by Aunt Alice's room.
He heard Aunt Alice crying out things like 'Come and conquer your auntie already!' or similar.
However, when his father and Alice came out later-
Big T vaguely remembered her saying something like "Don't misunderstand, Little T, Auntie was just playing role-play with your dad, blah blah blah," before she fled in a flustered manner.
Then, that very night, he met Grandma Leonora for the first time.
Because she looked so much like Aunt Alice, he often mixed them up.
…
Silence fell over the scene.
Although they had expected this outcome, hearing confirmation of their own deaths didn't make them happy.
"But please don't worry, Dad later used Earth's Dragon Balls to revive everyone," Big T quickly added, trying to lighten the awkward atmosphere.
After all, among the deceased were many relatives.
Like Great-Grandfather Senzaemon, Aunt Erina, and the others.
Even though they weren't relatives yet, Big T still tried to be considerate of their feelings.
Lott, however, looked skeptical.
'Was I really that kind of person?'
Big T desperately signaled Lott with his eyes.
'Dad, just go with it!'
'I'm trying to save your reputation here!'
That's right, the suggestion to revive the people of Planet Terra didn't come from Lott at all.
He couldn't care less about their lives.
The real reason was that Lott had destroyed over a dozen planets, resulting in too many deaths, so the Underworld couldn't handle the overflow.
As a last resort, King Yenma directly sent a message through the chat group, urging them to use the Dragon Balls to revive a batch of people quickly.
Otherwise, the Underworld would be overwhelmed.
It was only after Lott learned that among the dead were people he was on good terms with, like Utaha, that he agreed to revive them.
