"The estimated due date is in about two weeks. Don't worry, the baby is healthy."
At Nakano Hospital on Planet Terra, Nakano Maruo, the hospital director and a member of the Hero Association's management, personally came to the high-class ward where Chi-Chi was staying to relay her condition to Son Family.
The Lott Family of three had also returned from Earth.
Lott wasn't particularly interested originally, but Pan insisted on dragging him along to see the excitement.
"Thank you, doctor."
Although busy with training, Goku had taken time off to come during this period.
After all, the birth of a child was a major event that only happened a few times in a lifetime.
Nakano Maruo nodded and left the ward.
Before leaving, he cast a meaningful glance at Miku.
His gaze lingered for an extra moment on his daughter's still-flat abdomen.
He wondered if he should have Miku get a check-up too.
"Have you decided on a name for the baby?"
Pan asked, already knowing the answer.
"Son Gohan."
Goku replied without hesitation.
Originally, he had left this matter to his wife and father-in-law.
But he was scolded severely by Chi-Chi, who said he only ever thought about food.
However, just when Chi-Chi said the word 'Gohan', she was kicked noticeably in the stomach. (T/N: Gohan means Rice/Meal in Japanese. And in the original work, Gohan was indeed named like that, with the difference that he's already born.)
Thus, Goku, Chi-Chi, and Ox-King unanimously decided to name the child 'Son Gohan'.
It was also to commemorate Goku's deceased grandfather.
"Pan brought back a child too."
Saeko, holding Videl, said with a gentle smile:
"Coincidentally, they are about the same age. They could be childhood friends."
"No, it's better to keep them apart."
Pan said with half-lidded eyes and a look of disgust.
Although after she and Big T traveled to this time and their timeline and Lott's would become two parallel worlds, so no matter what Pan and Big T did in this timeline, it wouldn't affect their original timeline-
But the thought that her father in this timeline might be replaced made Pan feel extremely uncomfortable.
Although Saeko didn't know why Pan was so against Videl and Gohan being friends-
Under Pan's persistent pleading, she eventually agreed to the request.
She promised that once Goku defeated Frieza in a year, she would send Chi-Chi and her family back to Earth and wouldn't let the two children have much contact.
"It's about time to go back."
Big T suddenly spoke.
Upon hearing this, everyone present shifted their gaze from the Son Family to Lott's family of three.
"Leaving already?"
Bulma asked with some reluctance.
"We only came this time to change history. We didn't expect that even if we came to this timeline, it would only change the history of this timeline, and wouldn't have any effect on our own."
Big T showed a wry smile and added:
"Indeed, trying to solve problems by going back to the past to change history isn't realistic. We need to return to our own timeline and solve the problems with our own strength."
"Oh oh oh!"
Yotsuba clapped her hands excitedly.
Although her intelligence couldn't quite grasp it, she felt it sounded impressive.
Bulma also smiled and patted Big T on the shoulder, "You can actually say something so reasonable. You're nothing like your dad."
"Hey~ Dad."
Pan stretched her hands out towards Lott.
Lott smiled upon seeing this.
He reached under Pan's arms, lifted her high, and then held her in his arms.
"Exercise well, study well, play well, eat well, rest well."
Lott held Pan with his right arm and placed his left hand on Big T's shoulder.
"Living happily every day is also part of training."
"Yes!"
Big T and Pan responded in unison.
The next second, father and children simultaneously grinned, showing their bright white teeth and letting out a 'Hehe' laugh.
Everyone present showed kind smiles at this.
A moment later-
On the lawn outside Nakano Hospital, two time machines slowly rose, emitting a faint white light.
Yotsuba: "Goodbye! See you again!"
Chika: "Come visit often!"
Bulma: "Do your best when you go back too! Big T! Pan!"
The two inside the glass canopy could no longer hear the voices from below.
They just waved goodbye with smiles on their faces.
The white light on the surface of the time machines intensified to its peak in an instant, and then vanished without a trace the next moment.
Seeing the two who had disappeared, many people below took a while to react.
Although they hadn't spent much time together, they had grown accustomed to the presence of Big T and Pan.
Especially seeing the clever Pan riding on the usually arrogant Lott's shoulders, with Big T looking helpless beside them.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth.
"Ah!"
At this moment, Miku was the first to snap out of it.
"What's wrong, young lady~?"
"Can we be of service?"
The two clouds, Zeus and Prometheus, floating by Miku's shoulders, having replaced the headphones she used to wear around her neck as her new signature accessory, hovered by her ears and asked.
"I forgot to ask who Big T and Pan's mother is."
Miku blinked, looking somewhat dazed.
Hearing this, whether it was Chika, Nami, and Robin, who were already in confirmed relationships with Lott, or Nino, Erina, and Alice, who had made little progress and only had some budding feelings, or even Bulma and the others who were still in spectator mode-
They all showed expressions of regret.
'That's right, such an important matter, how could we have forgotten to ask?'
"Don't worry about it, Miku. Whether you have children in the future or not, Lott won't abandon you."
Saeko comforted her gently while holding Videl.
"Would it even matter if you were abandoned? You've already hit the jackpot anyway."
Nino glanced at the white and red clouds resting on Miku's shoulders and said with a hint of jealousy.
"Nino, what do you mean by that?"
Miku puffed out her cheeks, feeling that Nino's words carried an underlying meaning.
"I don't mean anything. I just think with your boring personality, it won't be long before that man finds you dull. Since you've already gotten the benefits, it's better to break up early and cut your losses."
Nino placed a hand on her chest, wearing a 'big sister knows best' expression.
To be honest, she felt a bit guilty about poaching her sister's man.
But if they had already broken up, then it wouldn't matter, right?
"That's nonsense!"
Miku glared at Nino angrily.
The two sisters, who never got along well, locked eyes, sparks seeming to fly between them.
Amidst Miku and Nino's bickering, the topic of who the mothers of Big T and Pan were was temporarily set aside by the women.
However, two people still couldn't forget the topic.
One was Hancock.
During the banquet at Totsuki Academy, Pan had bluntly pointed out that Hancock never had children in the future.
This had hit her hard.
Even now, she still hadn't recovered.
The other was Utaha, because Big T had previously let slip that in his timeline, there was also a sister named 'Sayaka'.
This made Utaha feel like she had already won.
Because Sayaka was the name of the first heroine in Utaha's first novel, which was modeled after herself.
Moreover, Utaha had thought before that if she had a daughter, she would name her 'Sayaka'.
With this in mind, Utaha smiled slightly.
She proactively stepped forward and linked her arm with Lott's.
Lott glanced sideways at Utaha.
He was just about to speak, but-
"What do you think you're doing!?"
At that moment, Nino, who had been arguing with Miku, rushed over and pushed Utaha away.
Of course, she didn't use much force, just enough to make Utaha let go of Lott's arm.
"All those men at school used to see you as unattainable, but it turns out you're just an otaku girl who throws herself at any man she sees!"
Nino, taking the initiative, launched a quick-play spell.
"And what are you doing?"
