Dragon Ball Super: The Lazy Master Gets Double Rewards for Taking on Apprentices

"Lin Fan!"

Lin Fan noticed Number 17's nervousness and reassured him, "Don't be nervous, I'm here with no ill intentions."

Number 17 nodded slightly. He could also sense that Lin Fan meant no harm; otherwise, they wouldn't have had such a relaxed conversation.

Instead, they've already taken action.

Lin Fan wasn't surprised to see that Number 17 was silent, because he knew that Number 17 wasn't good at talking.

He continued, "May I come to your cottage for a while?"

Number 17 pondered for a moment, then simply uttered a single word: "Okay!"

Subsequently.

It flew first to its own cabin.

Lin Fan followed closely behind.

A short while later, the two arrived at cabin number 17. The cabin was very simple, just made of wood. A strong wind would blow it away.

However, the least worrisome problem in this forest is the storm.

Because before the wind even reaches him, it will be blocked by other large trees, making it difficult for it to reach him. Even the biggest storm will turn into a gentle breeze once it gets here.

The two entered the cabin.

Lin Fan pulled up a wooden chair and sat down, calmly saying, "Number 17, let me introduce myself again. My name is Lin Fan, and I am not an ordinary person, but rather a rather special one!"

As for what makes him special, Lin Fan didn't say, because he didn't know how he was special.

After hearing Lin Fan's self-introduction on the 17th, he instantly understood why he couldn't see Lin Fan's energy; it turned out the other party was a god.

However, this puzzled him greatly.

What do you want from me?

If the other party is a god, then he must not be a bad person. Why would he come looking for me?

Lin Fan smiled slightly, but did not speak directly. Instead, he continued to chat: "I know that you have never neglected your cultivation over the years. On the contrary, you have made great progress over the years."

"It's not the same number 17 anymore."

This was clearly demonstrated during the Tournament of Power.

Number 17 was quite surprised that the other party knew that he had never given up cultivation. However, after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that the other party was a god and it was not surprising that he knew these things.

As for myself, I still don't understand why the other party came.

He asked, puzzled, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"I want to say that you can improve faster. As long as you become my disciple, I can help you greatly improve your combat power."

This time, Lin Fan explained his purpose.

To be honest, he wasn't sure if Number 17 would become his disciple, because Number 17 was different from Sun Wukong and the others, and it was hard to guess what he was thinking.

However, he felt that he had to show his stance in order to win over Number 17.

Number 17 thought for a few seconds and said, "Shall I become your disciple?"

"That's right. Do you think I'm not qualified?" Lin Fan asked calmly.

After speaking...

He unleashed the aura of his Super Saiyan God, and an overwhelming pressure instantly swept across the entire Earth.

Capsule company.

Vegeta, who was training in the gravity training room, suddenly felt this terrifying pressure. His body trembled involuntarily, and he almost fell to the ground.

At the same time, he immediately sensed that the oppressive force came from Lin Fan.

What terrifying pressure! Just what kind of being is Lin Fan? Why does he seem even stronger than before?

Is this the power of God?

Weren't all the gods we encountered before incredibly incompetent?

Thinking about these things, images of several gods, including Dende, East Supreme Kai, and Old Supreme Kai, came to mind.

No way! I, the dignified Saiyan prince, will never admit defeat! I will defeat Lin Fan!

Training, training!

After thinking about all this, he immediately sped up his training and adjusted the gravity to the maximum value in the gravity training room.

Not only Vegeta felt Lin Fan's pressure, but Master Roshi, who was looking at bikini-clad beauties on a luxury ship through a telescope on the island, also felt this pressure.

I almost dropped the binoculars.

This is Lin Fan's aura!

At the same time, both Number 18 and Krillin, who were being intimate, felt the oppressive aura.

Piccolo, Gohan, and others felt the same way, and ordinary people felt inexplicably irritable, as if something terrifying was about to happen.

Anyone who knows of Lin Fan's existence knows that this oppressive aura comes from Lin Fan.

Because in this day and age, only Lin Fan can exert such terrifying pressure. Even Super Saiyan 3 Goku cannot achieve such an effect.

At this moment.

Lin Fan stared intently at Number 17, his eyes filled with a chilling light. His current fighting power had reached 180 billion. With this foundation and the aid of the power of Super Saiyan God, his aura was an extremely terrifying existence.

That is precisely why Vegeta and the others felt a sense of terror.

Number 17, who was closest to Lin Fan, was even more distressed.

Sweating profusely.

They hurriedly channeled their energy as a form of resistance.

Lin Fan felt that it was about time, so he withdrew his oppressive aura. In that instant, all living things on Earth felt a sense of relief, and everything became relaxed and pleasant.

"Number 17, have you thought it through?"

"If you become my disciple, I will make you stronger. Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you."

Number 17 did not agree immediately, but fell into deep thought.

P.S.: I've recovered! To better supervise my writing, I've decided to guarantee at least three chapters per day. If I receive 100 gifts per day (anything is fine, even a penny for support), I'll add an extra chapter, capped at eight chapters. Currently, I've received 84 gifts in total.

The reason in Chapter 25...

Number 17 fell into deep thought for a moment. To be honest, he was naturally tempted by the possibility of becoming stronger.

Based on Lin Fan's demonstrated strength, he believed that Lin Fan had the absolute ability to teach him.

However, he was not clear about Lin Fan's purpose at the moment, so he dared not easily agree to Lin Fan's request, fearing that he would fall into Lin Fan's trap.

Seeing that he remained silent, Lin Fan smiled slightly and said, "If you have any questions, feel free to ask!"

"I want to know, why did you take me as your apprentice? What is your purpose? What do you want to gain?" Number 17 questioned.

Lin Fan knew that Android 17 was a smart person, unlike Goku who was an absolute martial arts fanatic. As long as he could improve his strength, he wouldn't even consider these issues.

He smiled.

"The reason is simple: I want my disciples to be all over the universe, and you and Sun Wukong are the key disciples I have chosen."

Number 17 was genuinely taken aback and asked in surprise, "Sun Wukong is also your disciple?"

"That's right, he's currently cultivating inside the Hyperpsychic Time Chamber. When he comes out, he'll have undergone a complete upgrade."

"If you're still worried, you can wait for Sun Wukong to come out of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and ask him!"

Number 17 pondered for a long time.

"No need to ask, I believe you!"

He knew that if he actually asked Sun Wukong, it would mean that he had chickened out.

If that's the case, and I really become Lin Fan's apprentice, then Lin Fan will definitely look down on me in the future, because he will think I'm too cowardly.

Moreover, I personally prefer to become an apprentice.

Therefore, he felt there was no need to ask, and even if he had to ask, he should keep it from Lin Fan and ask quietly.

"In that case, what should you call me now?" Lin Fan asked jokingly.

Number 17 respectfully greeted, "Master!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for accepting disciple number 17. You have obtained: 20 billion basic combat power, eight directions energy absorption, regenerative mechanical cells, and divine energy*1."

Current host's basic combat strength: 200 billion.

Lin Fan was slightly surprised that he had obtained divine energy again. What was the Eight Directions Energy Absorption and Regeneration Mechanical Cell?

Eight-Directional Energy Absorption: A special skill of the android, which allows it to create an energy shield with its hands to protect itself. The energy shield can absorb energy from all directions, and it can move during the absorption process.

Regenerative mechanical cells: Special cells of the artificial human, implanted into the artificial human's body, capable of regeneration, with super survival ability.

Seeing the effect of these two items, Lin Fan couldn't help but think, "Isn't this designed for Number 17?"

Number 17 also has the ability to absorb energy, but he cannot move, which is his most fatal weakness.

This energy absorption from all directions completely overcomes this weakness. During the energy absorption process, one can move around, thus avoiding being hit by the enemy.

The regenerative mechanical cells are also the divine equipment of androids; as long as the cells are not completely destroyed, they can regenerate.

For Number 17, this is practically a super divine weapon. He already has infinite energy, and with this regenerative mechanical cell, it's equivalent to infinite energy and pseudo-infinite life.

First, absorb and learn the energy from all eight directions yourself, and then teach No. 17.

"Learn to absorb energy from all directions!"

"Learn to absorb energy from all directions!"

Lin Fan pulled himself out of his thoughts.

"Number 17, now that you've become my disciple, I'll teach you how to absorb energy..."

Before Lin Fan could speak, Number 17 raised his eyebrows and said somewhat jokingly, "Master Lin Fan, I learned how to absorb energy a long time ago. I don't need you to teach me."

He wondered to himself, is this all the skill he has? If this is all he has, is there any point in him becoming an apprentice?

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow slightly, then stood up, turning his back to Number 17: "I know you can absorb energy, but your energy absorption is too useless. You can't move at all during the absorption process."
