Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 634 Bone Burial Ground
Looking at the energy in Star-Lord's hand, Smith Doyle had a question in his mind:
That is, why Star-Lord lost his powers with the death of Ego's original body.

Thinking of this, Smith Doyle asked:
"Does this energy come from your own body, or..."

Upon hearing Smith Doyle's question, Star-Lord spoke up:
"Yes, it comes from the planet beneath our feet."

Smith Doyle quickly realized that the power Star-Lord was using was not his own, but borrowed from Ego.

Because he is Ego's offspring and inherited the bloodline of the Celestials, he can forcibly borrow this power without Ego's consent. This is why Star-Lord was able to use Ego's divine power to fight Ego.

Otherwise, Ego could simply disconnect his divine power from Star-Lord's use, and Star-Lord would have no way to oppose Ego.

Meanwhile, Smith Doyle wondered: After Ego's death and the loss of his Celestial powers, would Star-Lord be able to develop his own Celestial powers?

Smith Doyle believed it was definitely possible, after all, Star-Lord was still very young, while Ego had acquired his immense Celestial power over millions of years, and Star-Lord, as a demigod, was only in his thirties at the moment.

They are too young for the Celestials' lifespan and have not yet developed their own Celestial Power.

"You should ask your father how to cultivate your own divine power."

"There must be a way to cultivate this power."

Smith Doyle wasn't sure if there was a way to cultivate divine power, but he believed there were techniques or training methods that could accelerate the development of one's own divine power.

Reminded by Smith Doyle, Star-Lord also realized what was going on.

The current divine power only proves that he is indeed Ego's son and has inherited his divine bloodline. However, the divine power he is currently using is borrowed from the planet beneath his feet, which is his father's. He does not possess any divine power of his own.

No matter how much you borrow, it's not as good as actually possessing it yourself. Even if you are just a weak celestial being who has been nurtured, it is still truly yours.

Gamora, standing nearby, also agreed:

"Only the power you cultivate yourself is truly yours and cannot be taken away."

Star-Lord nodded and said:
“You’re right, I’ll go find my father right now.”

Watching Star-Lord leave in a hurry, Smith Doyle spoke up:
"I plan to explore other places."

Gamora thought for a moment and then said:

"I'll go with you, and we'll see if the signal is better in other places so we can contact the rocket."

Smith Doyle and Gamora then explored Ego again, with Smith Doyle trying to locate Ego's brain.

On this journey of searching, Gamora still has not been able to contact Gamora.

At this moment, Smith Doyle discovered a cave and spoke up:
"There's a cave here, let's go in and take a look."

Gamora looked at the huge hole in front of her and said:
What do you think might be here?

Smith Doyle turned his head to look at the castle, which was still barely visible, and said with a smile:

"The location of this cave is neither too far nor too near; it's in a very good spot."

"Perhaps we can discover some unexpected secrets."

Gamora looked at Smith Doyle and asked:
"What, you still want to find Igor's true form?"

Gamora had also seen Ego's introduction and naturally understood that the planet beneath her feet was Ego.

Smith Doyle said with a smile:
"Aren't you interested?"

Smith Doyle thought that there were no intelligent beings on the planet Ego except for the Mantis Woman, not even animals.

As far as he knew, the birth of the Celestials required a large number of intelligent life forms on the planet. Although Igor, as one of them, had awakened, he did not have a matching body. Was this because his planet had no intelligent life forms?

Of course, the existence of this intelligent being meant that the Celestials would need a lot of time to successfully conceive, but Ego was clearly rushing headlong in the wrong direction. Without a body, his brain was extremely fragile.

While rockets are clever and have good energy for creating bombs, in reality, such an explosion, let alone injuring someone of Odin's caliber, might not be as effective as the weapon Star-Lord used to blast Ronan in the original comics.

Gamora looked at Smith Doyle and said:
"Gods should not be insulted lightly. If you really find his true form, it may not be a good thing."

Smith Doyle said nonchalantly:

"I don't care. Maybe it would be more interesting to see what he really is like."

Seeing that Smith Doyle didn't seem worried at all, Gamora followed him into the cave.

······
the other side.

Star-Lord found Ego.

Looking at the arriving Peter Quill, Igor asked:
"What's wrong, my son?"

“I saw your girlfriend go out with Smith Doyle.”

Star-Lord began to speak:
“They are very curious about this planet, and Smith Doyle wants to explore it some more.”

Igor nodded and said:
"Women are like the sea, and we are like the sailors the sea calls upon."

"We appear at sea, but we do not belong to the sea."

"Just as history calls forth heroes, your life is destined to be extraordinary, and women are merely an embellishment to your life."

Star-Lord looked at Ego, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"You are a god, naturally extraordinary, but I..."

Before Star-Lord could finish speaking, Ego interrupted:
“Quail, you don’t need to worry about that.”

"As long as the divine power of this planet continues, none of us will have to face death."

Star-Lord asked in surprise:
"Can I live forever?"

Igor nodded, indicating that he was right.

Star-Lord asked incredulously:
"really?"

Igor began to speak:
"Yes, as long as the divine power remains."

Star-Lord hadn't forgotten why he came, and he began to speak:
"Father, this is your divine power."

"Then how can I cultivate my own divine power?"

"I inherited your bloodline and can control your divine power, so can I also possess my own divine power?"

Seeing that Star-Lord had grasped the key point so quickly, Ego smiled and said:

"That's right, you who have my bloodline can also develop your own divine power, a divine power that belongs to you."

"But it will take a long time. If someone like me reaches the standard of building a planet, it may take millions of years to practice and cultivate."

"But don't worry, time will not be a problem for your long lifespan."

"I will teach you how to cultivate your own power, but you can first use my divine power to familiarize yourself with it."

"After all, you are still very young. To the gods, a lifespan of thirty-something years is no different from that of a newborn baby."

Upon hearing that Ego would teach him how to cultivate Celestial power and that he should first use Ego's power to familiarize himself with it, Star-Lord's guard, which had been raised by Rocket's mention of danger, lowered considerably.

"Can I use divine power to create something interesting?"

“For example, an 800-foot-tall Beans statue, the Skeleton King, Heather Lacrell, I want to do some weird things.”

Seeing the excited Star-Lord, Ego smiled and said:

You can do whatever you want.

"But Peter, we exist with a mission, we have a great responsibility."

"Only we can reshape the universe."

"Only we can hold the reins of the universe and lead it in the right direction."

Seeing the topic suddenly shift to such a high level, Star-Lord asked in confusion:

"How to do it?"

Ego's hand glowed with divine power, and Star-Lord followed suit, his fingertips also radiating divine power.

With a smile on his face, Igor began to speak:
"Come with me." Seeing this scene from outside the room, Mantis assumed that Star-Lord would suffer the same fate as the other children who had been brought in, so she ran out and found Drax resting in the room.

Seeing Drax sleeping, Mantis immediately ran over and shouted:

"Drax, Drax!"

Looking at Drax who had just woken up, he immediately said:

"Drax, we need to talk."

Drax, who had just woken up, spoke:
"Sorry, but I like women who are a little bit chubby."

Hearing Drax's words, Mantis was also stunned:
"what?"

Drax explained:
"When I said I found you disgusting, it was because I didn't want to hurt you too much."

The Mantis Woman immediately said:
"No, I don't mean to be with you..."

However, before she could finish speaking, Drax immediately turned around and made a vomiting motion, which left Mantis somewhat bewildered.

"What are you doing?"

Drax covered his mouth and said:
"I can't help but imagine our skin touching..."

The Mantis Woman immediately said:
"Drax, you've misunderstood."

"I don't like you that way, I don't even like your species."

Drax immediately moved the hand covering his mouth and said:
"Hey, there's no need for personal attacks."

The Mantis woman went straight to the point:
“Listen, Igor got what he wanted. I should have told you sooner. I was so stupid.”

"You are in danger."

······
the other side.

Ego led Star-Lord into the hall and began to speak:
“You need to readjust the way you look at life. You are not the same person you were in the past. I need to reshape your values.”

"Everything around us, including that girl, is temporary."

"Even someone as powerful as Smith Doyle had a short life for us."

"We are eternal."

Star-Lord then spoke up:
“Others might be, but Smith Doyle is different.”

Igor stopped and asked with some curiosity:

"What makes him different?"

"Could it be that you, like me, are a descendant of some god?"

"Even the most powerful beings in the Asgardian pantheon have short lifespans compared to us."

Star-Lord thought of the Dragon Balls, the Dragon Balls that can grant any wish. For Smith Doyle, all he had to do was use Shenron to make a wish, and the other person could have an endless lifespan.

"Smith Doyle possesses something special, the Dragon Balls."

Igor thought for a moment. He had never heard of this thing before, and asked:
"What is the purpose of that thing?"

"I don't even care about the Infinity Stones, so how can those things compare to the Infinity Stones?"

Star-Lord began to speak:
"The Dragon Balls can grant any wish."

Igor waved his hand and said:

"How can this be."

Seeing Star-Lord's unchanging expression, Ego asked uncertainly:

Are you sure it's real?

Star-Lord then spoke up:
"it is true."

"The Earth experienced an invasion by the Chitauri, which killed many people. Smith used the Dragon Balls to make a wish and resurrected everyone."

“I even asked him, what if I wished to become the ruler of a planet?”

He said, "Not to mention one planet, even dozens would be very easy."

"As long as you can get the right to make a wish."

Igor was also stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief:
"This universe is truly incredible; there are such wondrous things."

How do I qualify to make a wish?

Star-Lord began to speak:
"It seems to be the championship of the World Martial Arts Tournament he organized. Winning the championship grants you the right to make a wish once."

Igor laughed:

"What a generous little fellow."

"We can talk about the Dragon Balls in more detail later."

Star-Lord nodded in agreement, agreeing with Ego's assessment; Smith Doyle's actions were indeed generous.

Then, out of curiosity, I asked the question that had been bothering me:
"Wouldn't an eternal lifespan be boring?"

Igor held up one finger and said:
“You won’t be bored if you have a goal, Peter.”

"Bringing you here means I've helped you find your goal."

Igor continued:

“I told you, many years ago I had an indestructible wormhole that led me to life.”

"But what I didn't tell you was that when I finally found it, it was so disappointing."

"It was then that I had a profound epiphany."

"My inner desire to find other lives is not so that I can wander among those lives."

“Peter, I have found my true mission and meaning.”

Then Ego reached out and touched Peter's forehead, transmitting the scene and its meaning to Star-Lord.

At that moment, Star-Lord absorbed those memories, and immediately became lost in them, wandering among them, muttering to himself:

"I...I have seen it, eternity!"

······
the other side.

Smith Doyle and Gamora explored the cave, which was enormous and had a complex interior.

The two walked into a bright light, and upon seeing the scene before them, Gamora exclaimed:

"My God!"

Everywhere he looked was a skeleton. Smith Doyle did not find Ego's original body, but he did find the burial place of Ego's offspring.

Gamora spoke:
"We have to leave this planet."

"This must be the danger the rocket was referring to."

Smith Doyle said:
"I plan to search for his original body again."

Gamora shook her head and said:

"It's too dangerous here, we need to go back."

“We are in danger without a spaceship. Neither Star-Lord, Drax, nor I have the ability to survive in space, or even to leave a planet.”

"Even their strength is far inferior."
