A few days later, in the early morning, the air on Mount Paozu was intoxicatingly fresh.
Son Gokai sat cross legged on the rooftop as usual, carrying out his morning meditation, while the endlessly energetic Son Goku dragged his Power Pole and headed back down the mountain road to look for food.
‘I wonder what big game I’ll run into today, a tiger?
Or a bear?’ Son Goku muttered to himself as he walked.
Just then, a sudden urgent roar of an engine shattered the quiet of the mountain forest.
“Vroooom!!” A small off road vehicle bearing the word “CAPSULE” was racing along the mountain road at tremendous speed, its wheels kicking up billowing clouds of dust.
In the driver’s seat, sixteen year old Bulma was watching the Dragon Radar with one eye while excitedly pressing the accelerator with her foot.
“It’s just up ahead!
The radar signal is getting stronger and stronger!” However, rounding a sharp bend, she suddenly spotted a small figure standing in the middle of the road.
“Oh no!
Move!
Get out of the way!!” Bulma was frightened out of her wits and laid on the horn desperately.
But Son Goku had grown up in the mountains since childhood and had never once laid eyes on an automobile, this “iron monster,” and in his eyes it was simply a wild beast trying to attack him!
“Hmph!
You think you can run me over?
Not a chance!” Rather than retreat, Son Goku charged forward, and in the instant before the vehicle would have struck him, he thrust both hands out and grabbed hold of the front bumper!
“Up you go!!” With a great shout, that small frame of Son Goku’s unleashed astounding superhuman strength, and he physically heaved the speeding off road vehicle up off the ground!
“Aaaaaah!!” Bulma inside the vehicle felt the world spinning and let out a piercing scream.
“Since you’re a monster, then fly!!” Son Goku raised the vehicle high overhead and hurled it toward the cliff beside the road as though throwing a rock!
(That’s early Goku for you!) “No!!
Help me!!” Bulma was in despair.
Airborne, both she and the vehicle were in freefall, with a bottomless mountain ravine below.
‘Is this really how the genius and beauty Bulma dies today, in the middle of nowhere on some wild mountain?
I haven’t even had a boyfriend yet!!’ At this moment of absolute crisis.
A white blur flashed past in an instant.
Son Gokai, who had been keeping an eye on the commotion over here, made his move.
‘This foolish brother of mine still has no sense of measure.’ He sighed inwardly, then with a shift of his thoughts.
Rooster Talisman, Levitation!
An invisible but powerful telekinetic force instantly enveloped the vehicle that was about to crash.
The off road vehicle, which had been plummeting at tremendous speed, was as though caught by an enormous invisible hand, and in complete defiance of the laws of physics, came to a hovering stop in midair.
Bulma inside the vehicle was bracing herself for death with her eyes shut, but the impact she had expected never came, and instead there was a feeling of…
weightlessness?
She tremblingly opened one eye.
Through the broken window, she witnessed a sight she would never forget for the rest of her life.
The car door was effortlessly pulled open from outside.
A young man in a short sleeved shirt, with a lean figure and muscle lines as perfect as an ancient Greek sculpture, was hovering in midair outside the door.
The morning sunlight fell across him, tracing a golden outline around his frame.
On that sharply defined and handsome face was an expression of mild exasperation mixed with something almost indulgent.
“Miss, are you hurt?” The young man’s voice was clear and resonant, like a gentle breeze drifting into Bulma’s panicked heart.
Before Bulma could even react, the young man extended both arms and lifted her out of the vehicle with a motion that was gentle yet left no room for refusal.
A perfect, textbook princess carry.
“Ah…” Bulma felt her body go light, and the next moment she had settled into a firm and warm embrace.
The scent unique to young men, a blend of sunlight and forest, drifted around her.
She instinctively looked up, and her gaze fell straight into a pair of deep black eyes like a sky full of stars.
“Thump, thump, thump!” Bulma swore that in this moment her heartbeat was absolutely over two hundred.
He was…
just too handsome!!
This was literally a white knight prince walking out of the pages of a comic book!
“I…
I’m fine…” Bulma’s face flushed as red as a perfectly ripe tomato, and her entire body went limp in Son Gokai’s arms.
She forgot entirely to resist, and even sneaked a hand out and brushed it against Son Gokai’s firm chest muscle.
Mm, the texture was wonderful!
Son Gokai looked at the girl in his arms whose infatuation had fully erupted, and the corner of his mouth curved slightly upward.
That first impression was secured.
He cradled Bulma and slowly descended to the ground, while the vehicle under the control of his telekinesis gently settled down by the roadside.
“Hey!
Who are you?
Why are you stealing my prey!” (Note: Goku is asking who Bulma is and why she stole his “prey,” referring to the vehicle.) Just then Son Goku came running over as well, waving the Power Pole and looking with undisguised displeasure at the Bulma in Son Gokai’s arms.
“You idiot, Goku.” Son Gokai rapped him on the head with irritation and said, “That’s not prey, that’s a car!
The person inside is a human being, a girl!” “A person?” Son Goku was taken aback and leaned over to take a closer look at Bulma.
“Huh?
She really isn’t a monster.
But she looks so weird, how come her butt is on her front?” “Pfft…” Bulma, who had only just been drifting in a rosy haze, nearly coughed up blood.
“You rude little brat!
That is not a butt!
These are called a chest!
They are a symbol of charm, do you understand!!” Bulma instantly flew into a rage, jumped down from Son Gokai’s arms, and shouted at Goku.
Then she immediately switched expressions, turned to Son Gokai with a sweet smile, and casually tidied her hair.
“Um…
thank you so much for just now.
My name is Bulma, and I’m from West City.
May I ask what my savior’s name is?” “My name is Son Gokai, and this is my younger brother Son Goku.” Son Gokai introduced himself with a smile and said, “I’m sorry, my brother grew up in the mountains from a young age and hasn’t seen much of the world, I hope he didn’t frighten you.” “Oh it’s fine, no worries at all!” Bulma waved a hand, though her eyes stayed fixed on Son Gokai.
“So they’re brothers…
I really can’t tell, the older brother is so handsome and gentlemanly, while the younger one is a complete little wild monkey.” With the misunderstanding resolved, the three of them made their way to Son Gokai’s home.
Bulma looked at the beeping Dragon Radar in her hand and was surprised to discover that a four star Dragon Ball was right here in this very house.
“That’s it!” When Son Goku produced that orange sphere, Bulma let out an excited cry.
“This is a Dragon Ball!
Collect all seven of them and you can summon the Eternal Dragon, who will grant any one wish!” Bulma launched into an enthusiastic account of the legend of the Dragon Balls, and brought out the two she had already collected as proof.
“It can really grant any wish?” Son Goku’s eyes lit up, “Then can it make a ton of delicious food appear?” “Of course it can!” Bulma said temptingly.
Then she turned her head and looked at Son Gokai with a face full of expectation, her gaze practically dripping with feeling.
“Um…
Gokai, I’m currently on a journey to find the remaining Dragon Balls, but it’s very dangerous out there with all kinds of monsters…
is there any chance you two could act as my bodyguards?” “Of course, I’ll pay you for it!” Son Gokai laughed inwardly.
This was not looking for a bodyguard at all, she was clearly interested in something else entirely.
But it suited his plans just fine.
“Since it can grant a wish, that’s not a bad deal at all.” Son Gokai gave a nod.
“As it happens, I also wanted to take Goku out to gain some experience in the wider world.
We’ll take this job.” “That’s wonderful!!” Bulma cheered and nearly threw herself at Son Gokai for a hug, but restrained herself with dignity at the very last moment.
And so this strange trio, consisting of the genius beauty, the supremely powerful Saiyan older brother, and the endearingly dense younger brother full of limitless potential, officially set out on the journey to find the Dragon Balls.
