A Sage Resolution 2.2

(Kame Sennin)

Age 749 September 14

“Oh oh oh, welcome everyone.”

Roshi greeted, but his attention was fixated on the terribly powerful woman of petite stature amongst them. He felt that she was even stronger than King Piccolo in his prime…

“Gohan, who did you bring here?” Kame Senin asked while passing his hand in his beard, his eyes not leaving Gine for a moment.

Roshi's elder student smiled and put a hand on the shoulder of the tailed woman. “This is my adopted daughter, Gine and those two boys are her sons, Sage and Kakarot.”

The woman wore a pink gi covering a tight blue t-shirt and black spat with calf high dark yellow boots. Gine smiled at him while looking around her, she seemed interested in Roshi's home. Roshi could scarcely believe that such a toned and petite woman could give birth to two grown sons like the two boys he was seeing at her sides.

Her training schedule must be killer to keep those thighs toned. Roshi thought as he observed the attractive yet scary tailed woman.

The smallest boy spoke after observing Roshi. “Grandpa, this is the other old man who gave us the dragon ball!”

Roshi sweatdropped, the boy only remembered him now? His mother patted his head affectionately while his brother looked at him with exasperation; the girls laughed at him in fond amusement.

“Yes Kakarot, he is my master, his name is Muten Roshi, the strongest man in the world.” Gohan said proudly.

This caused Roshi to puff up his chest as he preened under the attention of the girls who had skeptical expressions etched on their faces. The older boy, Sage was his name, his gaze never left Roshi for a moment as he assessed him.

“Hey Sage, what is his power level?!” Kakarot asked his brother who sighed and took some kind of device from the pouch of his tactical belt and placed some kind of high-tech monocle on the right side of his face.

Click. Beep. Beep. “200, but he is restraining his Ki, so he should be way stronger than this.”

Kakarot looked at Roshi with a disappointed face. “Eh, Mom can take him.”

Why you! Brat! Kids these days have no respect! Roshi shouted in his heart, his hand tightened around the shaft of his staff in irritation.

The older boy flicked the forehead of the younger one. “Ouch! Hey what was that for?!”

Sage stared back into Roshi's direction. “It's not that simple, Kakarot. I bet that if we give him back his youth, his power level would jump to 900 PL or so. Master Roshi is currently concealing a great deal of strength… for health related reasons.”

we have a sharp one here. Roshi smiled as he was surprised by the analysis Sage had given. 

Staying at 100% all the time wasn't possible, Roshi was Immortal but he was still able to age. It's not full-on Immortality and he regretted having accepted it when the Phoenix had offered it to him, it was a great source of disappointment for him as he thought that he would look able to get an endless amount of women with eternal youth with this gift… but he learned thanks to that, that life is often cruel.

“Okay, big bro. You're the smartest here.” The youngest son scratched behind his head and walked toward Guyymao's little daughter who wrapped herself around the boy's right arm.

Oh so that's what is going on. Gyūmaōis securing a strong husband for his daughter. The Ox-king was already securing his line with that powerful kid.

Roshi could feel how strong both of those boys were, at least at the level of an elite fighter back in the days when he and Shen followed their Master to fight King Piccolo.

“Mhm, his power level is at 200, Sage honey.” The blue haired girl -Bulma was it?- touched the strange futuristic eyewear on the left side of her head.

The old Hermit was now intrigued. “Oh, what an interesting device, it can measure Ki?”

It was actually really innovative, and Roshi thought about how such a device could be used to easily track people with higher Ki or it could be a good training aid in the cultivation of life energy.

It was Sage who replied to him. “Yes, Master Roshi. We use the scouter as a baseline to measure someone's power level. But since we arrived on Earth, it has become useless as human warriors can manipulate their Ki by concealing or amplifying it.”

“Human? Are you saying that you're aliens or something else?” Roshi asked skeptically.

The tall boy unfurled what Roshi had believed was a fur belt, but it was actually a tail, one similar to a monkey's. Gine and her younger son did the same; then to his surprise the blue haired girl gave him a smug loom and showed off her tail.

This floored Roshi. “Ah… you four, you are not human. The girl, Bulma… she was human the last time I saw her, she had no spiky long hair or tail.”

Bulma entwined her tail with Sage and clung to his arm intimately. “I've made a wish to the Dragon Balls to become the same race as Sage. We're in love and now dating!”

“Oooh! Congratulations!” The Hermit clapped three times while looking at the reddening cheeks of the blue haired girl.

Roshi put his left hand behind his back and fondled his long white beard.   So the legend of the Dragon Balls is real, good to know.

That revelation was barely a blip on Roshi's awareness, in his long life he has already gathered riches, women and fame; he liked his peace and didn't wish for anything. 

Bulma giggled shyly in delight. “Thank you!”

Gine, the boys’ mother turned to Gohan and said, “See, he isn't that bad, Father!” 

Gine put a hand on Gohan's shoulder and the elderly martial artist's shoulders sagged and he said in a defeated manner, “I know my master, he is going to inevitably make some unreasonable demands for his teaching.” 

Roshi frowned and chided his student. “Gohan! Don't give away my intentions!”

Gohan waved vaguely at Roshi while speaking to the cute petite alien. “See?”

“Oh oh oh. My training doesn't come for free, Gohan. Even you, my student, had to pay the price.” The old Hermit remembered how Gohan became his student, he had brought him to a strip club and paid for a lapdance. It had been one of Roshi's most fond experiences to have a beautiful redhead spin onto his laps.

Gohan remembered as well, he threw that same disappointed look at him as he said, “Yes master, I remember… So what task are you going to give the children?”

Roshi lowered his head, looked at the white sand at his feet and started thinking, lately life was boring and all the chores around the house started becoming tedious to do and with so many people coming to become his students, they needed all the help. He doubted that the two rich girls here would be good at cleaning or cooking for a large group of people. He resolved to dip into his savings to pay anyone used to provide those services.

As for the girls present, there was that crink in his back that he wanted to get rid of, but why not make things more funny and… agreeable for himself.

He perked up, looked at Gohan and said, “The boys need to find me a pichi-pichi gal who can cook and clean! The girls need to cook me a meal and give me a… b-back massage by stepping on me! Only then will I train them!”

Bulma and Chi-chi  immediately shouted in synch, “Pervert!”

“Oh oh oh.” Roshi took pleasure in the look of disgust on both of the girls' faces.

Gohan sighed heavily. “See, Gine?”

The saiyan Matron tilted her head in confusion. “But I don't see anything wrong with what he asked… I do all the same things for you, father.”

Roshi felt a pang of jealousy in his heart when hearing those words. That lucky bastard!

To Roshi, Gohan, has always been the unlucky one of his two disciples, he became an Hermit like him in some far away mountain while Gyūmaōafter finishing his training married the Ox-Queen after winning her hand in a tournament.

Gohan turned to the petite woman and patted her head. “Gine, if I didn't know that you could take care of yourself, I would worry about you meeting other men…”

At the same time, Kakarot asked Sage, “Brother, what's a pichi-pichi gal?”

The older boy answered with an arm around Bulma's waist, “Basically, a girl that looks like Bulma or mom.”

Kakarot nodded while looking at his mother, then his gaze switched between Bulma and Chi-chi. “Huh… ah, I see! But Chi-chi looks better than Bulma!”

Chi-chi blushed and slapped Kakarot's arm. “Kakarot! You flatterer!”

The Ox-Princess was so embarrassed that she hid her face between her hands.

Oh oh! Love is in the air! Roshi laughed, he really wanted to watch their love bloom. The Hermit resolved to pair Kakarot and Chi-chi for sparring often if they succeeded his little test of course.

Sage let go of Bulma, disentangled his tails from her and walked up to his little brother and loomed over him.“We have to agree to disagree, lil'bro. Bulma is the cutest.”

The little guy stared back defiantly at his older brother, there was a tightening of his eyes and his tail stiffened as it fluffed. “She can't cook! Chi-chi is way better and she can fight!”

Bulma glared at Kakarot, Chi-chi fainted from embarrassment as her boyfriend complimented her; the mother of the two boys, Gine, began chuckling. Gohan shook his head as he watched them without doing anything. 

Sage took his brother by the jacket and lifted him to place him eye to eye with him. “Take that back, Kakarot! Bulma is awesome! She can build an anti-gravity unit with her eyes closed!”

“You didn't deny that she can't cook.” Kakarot made a mischievous expression. 

“You…!” Sage raised a fist but stopped himself from just punching his brother. However, to Roshi it seemed that young Kakarot was keen on picking a fight with his brother.

Pow! Kakarot headbutted Sage who let go of his brother and placed his hand onto his nose. There was blood, then Sage looked at his blood stained palm, glared at his smiling brother who made a come on gesture. The older alien boy moved at high speed and threw a punch at Kakarot who dodged it.

 A brawl started between the two brothers just like that because of the two girls present. Roshi was seeing a preview of how things were going to go if he accepted this rowdy bunch as students. But it was so entertaining to watch!

“Sage! Calm down, this isn't a competition. I can just learn how to cook!” Bulma shouted to her boyfriend.

Beep! beep! “Huh?”

 The device on the side of Bulma’s face started emitting noise and called out at the top of her lungs. “Wait everyone, there's someone coming toward the island.” 

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked as Bulma pointed her finger toward the north. 

“Eh, yeah she's right.” There was something slowly coming toward them, Roshi squinted his eyes and shaded them with his hand to see further, and what wasn’t his surprise to see a small boat with a bald kid rowing it toward the island. 

“Hm. He looks like a monk on a small rowboat.”

They watched the small boat approach and stop ten meters from shore, he grabbed a bundle and jumped off the boat crossing the water between the boat and the small beach where everyone was. Comically, the small monk landed face first in the sand and couldn't free himself from that position. 

“Who the hell is this guy…?” Roshi asked out loud, then he turned to the tailed boys. “Boys, pull him out.”

Sage raised his hand and used his Ki to raise the small monk out of the hole with Telekinesis. The taller boy let the bald youngster go gently on the sand. That technique reminded Roshi of Shen's brand of Ki techniques that were more mental than physical. 

“Oooh, that's neat. How do you know that technique?” Roshi asked the young man.

Sage crossed his arms and revealed, “It's self developed, Master.”

“Cough, cough.” The noseless monk looked at everyone on the island with trepidation. 

“Hello there.” The noseless young monk greeted.

Roshi inspected the young boy with a critical eye, he wears a yellow short sleeved Chinese garb with the sleeves folded to make it sleeveless adorned with purple straps on each side, orange Chinese pants with a purple belt on his waist, white shins and ochre Chinese toe shoes. He didn’t look like much with his bored expression. “Who are you, young man?”

The boy however replied with a question of himself. “Are you Master Muten Roshi, correct?”

“Why indeed I am.” Roshi replied, perplexed by the worshipful expression of the young man.

“My name is Kuririn.” The strange boy bowed and simled. “I have come all this way to receive training from you, Master Muten Roshi.”

Meanwhile the alien boys spoke loudly enough for everyone to hear them. Kakarot asked his brother, “Hey Sage, who is the noseless guy? Is he an alien like us?”

Sage stared at Kuririn, the right side of his mouth rising. “No he isn't. He is human, Kakarot. Being born without a nose is called Congenital Arhinia, a rare birth malformation.” 

Kakarot nodded and replied, “Oh you know a lot of things, big bro!”

The older boy puffed his chest proudly and Roshi told himself that he will have to puncture the ego of this boy overlong if he took him as his disciple. The boys’ mother walked up to Kuririn and touched his face and said, “Poor boy, can't we do something for him?” She looked at Bulma and Sage when she asked that.

“Madam, could you please let go?” Kuririn politely asked before trying to escape, but he realized that he couldn’t get away because a furry tail was holding onto him.

Sage stared at Bulma who shook her head, the alien boy shrugged. “Maybe? He would need 30 days in a gene altering bio-pod, mom.”

Gine took her own scouter from her belt pouch and used it to look at Kuririn. “Mhm. Power level at 50, he is strong for a human. He could become stronger with Master Roshi there.”

“Urgh, another mouth to feed.” Roshi muttered. “If he can bring me a pichi-pichi gal like I asked to your two boys, he can join too.”

Kuririn's eyes shone like stars. “Oooh! I can join!”

Roshi turned toward the boy and replied harshly, “Fulfill the condition first, kid!”

Gine let go of Kuririn and the small monk saluted him with a big smile. “Yes, sir!”

Sage pushed his brother forward. “Go along with Kakarot, he got the nimbus.”

Roshi didn’t have to give any advice on how things should be done; the older boy decided to let the younger ones team up. “Kakarot, call the cloud down. You’re going with Kuririn, you can’t be trusted to look for a cute girl. You only have Chi-Chi or mom as an example.”

“Sure. Nimbus come here!” Kakarot called out and his magic golden cloud descended from the sky at breakneck speed.

The Ox-King’s daughter, Chi-Chi was completely red and began muttering, “Hehehe, Kakarot likes me!”

“Ha, Young love.” Gohan said with a tear in his left eye.

The old Master’s gaze focused on the two younger girls. “Girls, come fulfill your conditions. Guhehehe.” Roshi started to drool.

(General Pov)

Kakarot and Kuririn went southeast with the Nimbus while Sage took his dropship, the Pelican, to reach the south of the continent as he didn't have the power level to travel for long distances yet. He intended to change that fast; meanwhile, Bulma and Chi-chi were turned into masseuses by a certain old pervert.

The two girls tried to kill him by stepping on his back with all their strengths, but it didn't work. Master Roshi was stranger than them and simply too resilient for the two girls to succeed.

Gine began practicing with Gohan, being shown how to use Kamehameha after watching her adoptive father doing the technique. It was three hours later when Kakarot and Kuririn returned with two women. Both of them have dark blue eyes and purple hair, with the notable difference that one was a mermaid and another a half naked girl with curly hair wearing rags.

Master Roshi welcomed them with a lewd smile but before he could speak, Bulma and Chi-chi brained him and took control of the situation, explaining to the girls why they were here and offered them jobs as cook and cleaners with a high salary.

Ranfan, the curly purplette, jumped on this opportunity; as for Pie Pie, the mermaid, she asked more questions about where they would live as the house on this island was quite small.

Bulma answered her question by simply taking Her capsule box and showing them that she did have two deluxe bungalow houses in her possession. She also explained that master Roshi had told them that this small island won't be where he would train the small group. Ranfan and Pie Pie then came up with a schedule, spoke about hazard pay and holidays; Bulma took all of this in stride and drafted a contract placing the two girls under her payroll, solidifying herself as the boss of this operation.

Chi-Chi pitched in as her father allowed her to use his bank account, and offered to pay for groceries and supplies. The girls had come up with this to not burden Master Roshi financially because he would be training three Saiyans and that they may eat him out of home. Fortunately, Sage had a solution to keep Saiyan fed: A food synthesizer able to produce High Caloric Military Ration. The only problem was that they would have to go hunt and process the meat themselves first; the taste would be dubious too. 

Gine had told them that she used to work in a meat processing plant on planet Vegeta and that it was difficult to season everything. Bulma’s future mother-in-law promised to show them how to use the device. As for Master Roshi, he was happy that his wallet was going to be spared thanks to his rich new female disciples.

Once those details were taken care of, Bulma walked to the beach and looked in the direction where Sage had left. 

“Where is Sage? He is taking too long.” Bulma asked herself.

(Son Sage)

I retrieved the Pelican’s capsule on the ground with my telekinesis and started flying in the sky. The south of the continent had a Mediterranean-like climate, dry summer and wet winters. The landscape under me passed by as I flew in the direction of the wastes beyond the farmlands under me.

This looked like a good place to live in to be honest, though the roaming pack of dinosaurs and kaijuu made me think that people needed to be decently armed to survive. This planet was strange, the animals were a mix of prehistoric ones and large and small dinosaurs.

The landmass was also a supercontinent with some archipelago around it. The gravity and the air were different from the Earth from my previous universe; it was cleaner and it hurt me to say it but this place is more advanced. Humans are also unified under only one government. This was way better than humanity from my previous world.

It was hard looking for one single girl with blue or blonde hair amongst a sea of humans. There were a lot of people from what I could sense in this part of the world, was I destined to not find Launch? I arrived over a city bordering the wastes I was looking for; at least, I think that Launch was there. It looked like one of those towns you would see in a western, and everything was labeled with wooden signs. There was a bar, a church, a town hall and a bunch of businesses and residences all centered around a main plaza.

“Hmm?” In downtown there was a commotion and I sped there, only to find a bank with a smashed entrance and a small gathering of police officers.

The locals were all hidden in their houses, some people were wounded and were being ferried to the hospital. There was a literal train of destruction leading outside the town, I chose to follow it at full speed. I smelled gunpowder and saw the damage dealt to the road.

Far ahead I heard a small explosion, police sirens and some people swearing. There was silence for a moment before a huge scream almost deafened me. “KYAAAAAA! SOMEONE HELP ME!” 

I smiled and flew faster. “Huh, found her.”

(Launch)

Launch didn't understand why she was here in the desert. She remembered working at the bar, cleaning the glasses and discussing with someone and the next she found herself being threatened by two police officers with guns pointed at her.

There was no way those two were honest cops! Did they bring Launch here to do something bad to… her? She remembers situations like this happening to her all the time. Launch screamed for help at the top of her lungs and then suddenly, like an avenging angel, a black haired young man wearing a black muscle shirt and grey tactical pants descended from the sky and placed himself between her and those two dirty police officers.

When he turned to her, held his hand to Launch and said, “Come with me if you want to live.”

He looked rather handsome, so much so that Launch instinctively took his hand. The young man lifted her up on her feet. The police officers reacted and the bald one said with a surprised expression, “Wha-?!”

“Who are you?!” The black haired cop who looked younger demanded.

Placing himself between Launch and the cops the young man replied, “I’ve come to save her.”

The police officer immediately pointed his pistol at Launch's savior. “Come to save her?! Are you her accomplice?! You’re under arrest!”

Before he could react the young man disappeared from view and reappeared behind the police officer and stuck him behind the head.

Bap! The police officer fell unconscious like a bag of potato on the ground under the shocked eyes of the girl and the other officer.

“Oh no, joe!” The cop's partner shouted, he looked at the young man with a hate filled gaze. “You bastard…!!”

Bang! Bang! Bang! The bald cop shot at him three times, causing Launch to scream in fear.

However, the young man's hands blurred in movement and opened his hands. Three bullets fell on the rocky ground as Launch's savior quipped, “My parents are married, thank you.”

Click! Click! The cop pulled the trigger but his ammo was empty. “Oh shit.”

POW! The young man punched the cop, knocking him out. “Language, there's a lady present.”

The young man looked at his fist and then at the downed cop and sighed. “Humans are really fragile, I had to control myself to not kill them.”

Launch fearlessly approached the young man, reached for his fist and put it between her gloved hands and looked happily into his eyes. “Th-thank you so much!!! How should I repay you?”

He gazed back into her eyes and smiled sexily. “As a matter of fact you can help me miss…?”

She stepped back and let go of his hand. “Oh forgive me for my rudeness. My name is Launch.”

He looked at her up and down. “Nice to meet you, Launch. I’m Son Sage.”

The boy took a piece of paper from his belt pouch and handed it to Launch. “...and I want to hire you. This will be your base salary to do simple cooking and cleaning.”

Launch looked at the basic quote on the work contract Mister Son had handed to her was the monthly salary for one year. “4,194,398 Zenie! That much? This is double what a normal maid would earn.”

He smiled at her. “Yes, and we offer complete healthcare coverage, even dental.”

Launch thought about it, she saw the bag full of money on her bike and realized that she might have had one of her episodes and stolen money. So those cops might not be bad ones after all…

She couldn’t return to town after attacking those cops, but there was an option open to her in the form of gainful employment. “We need to speak about where you’re going to take me, Mister Son.”

“Please call me Sage, Mister Son is my grandfather.” The young man smoothly replied as he took her hand took her in his arms in a princess carry. 

The bag full of money floated toward them and arrived into Launch’s waiting arms. The bluenette stared at the phenomenon before her with eyes as wide as saucer. “H-how?!”

“I will tell you everything, but first we must leave the area.” Sage replied.

“O-okay.” Launch nodded and they flew out of the desert at the speed of a racing car; there was a brief moment when the wind was too much for Launch but it simply stopped when a translucent barrier of some kind of energy enveloped them.

(Bulma Brief)

2 hours later…

The sun was low on the horizon, the sly became gradually more orange and purple, a sign that sunset was near. The wind blew and seagulls were returning to their roost; there was a bunch of dolphins jumping out of the water happily.

“Where is he?!” Bulma impatiently stomped her foot on the sand, unfortunately creating a dust cloud.

The bluenette was rather irascible right now, despite her attempts to kill Roshi by stomping on him, all she did was ‘massage him’ and feed the man’s masochistic fetish. Poor Chi-Chi swore to never help him this way again and stuck like glue to Kakarot when he came back from his short trip. Gine and Gohan stayed, waiting for Sage to come back with the girl he is supposed to bring. 

Beep! Beep! 

Bulma felt her smartphone vibrate in her jacket’s pocket and she reached out to take it. It was boxy and was capable of satellite calls everywhere on the planet.

On the screen she saw that she was receiving a video call. She accepted it and she was granted the vision of seeing her boyfriend sitting in the cockpit of the Pelican with a really pretty girl sitting behind him while looking at the interior. She has dark blue curly hair, with a red ribbon, her outfit consisted of a light-green belly-baring crop tank top, yellow shorts with a red belt, brown fingerless gloves.

“Sage! You're taking too long, where are you?” Bulma demanded impatiently. 

The saiyan smiled at her and replied, “Hey B! I am coming right now.”

Bulma nodded, Sage was coming back! Her attention settled on the other girl. “Great! So… who is this behind you?”

Sage pushed a button on the dashboard, the autopilot from what Bulma could see. He stood up and introduced the other young woman. “Ah, that's Launch. I saved her from two bad people and she agreed to come work for us.”

“H-hello.” The girl said hesitantly with a small wave of her hand, her voice and mannerism were feminine and cute.

Bulma thought, Sage really has luck with women. I might need to be careful with this one.

“Hi…” Bulma greeted her back. She turned her gaze back to her boyfriend and asked,  “Did you discuss the contract with her?”

“I made her read it, she's aware that we're going to be taught martial arts by Master Roshi and that you are bankrolling the entire operation. However… there's complications. Launch seems to have a condition…” 

Bulma frowned at the hesitancy in Sage's voice. “Is she ill? If so, maybe your technology can do something?”

“Nah something else happened, let me tell you…” The saiyan boy started telling her a tale.

***

(Flashback) 

A lock of her long hair caused Launch to sneeze while they were one hundred meters from the ground. “ACHOO!!”

Dark blue hair became golden blonde and her shy disposition melted like ice in the sun, only leaving a fiery temper. The blonde looked at Sage who held her in his arms. “Who are you?! Let me go!”

She started screaming and kicking, she even started biting him and clawing his face. “Bleh! Are you made out of stone or something?!”

Sage sighed. “Are you sure that you want me to let you go, Launch? Look down.”

The girl did just that and her arms suddenly wrapped around Sage's neck. “Aaaahh! Don't let go, don't let go!”

The boy chuckled evilly as he looked down at the blonde. His grip tightened on her in a protective manner. “I don't intend to, cutie. But first we need to go to south point and I will discuss with you what I spoke about with the other you.”

With an angry blush, blonde Launch whispered, “Oh, you're aware of my little problem…”

“Yeah, I’ve seen weirder.” He shrugged as he lowered himself closer to the ground.

Blonde Launch didn’t let her arms relax around Sage’s neck despite the loss of altitude. She looked at him, this was the first time that someone wasn’t weirded out or repelled by her split personalities. She remembered how in the orphanage she grew up people ostracized her for her condition… it didn’t help that Sage was handsome and from what she could feel from under his shirt, built like a hunk.

“What did you talk about with the other one? Fill me up… I mean fill me in!”

Sage looked at the blushing violent girl and decided to explain what deal he made with her gentler personality… he ignored how the girl didn't let go of his neck.

***

Bulma calmly said, “I see… miss Launch changes personality when she sneezes.

She was bothered over the fact that the other personality of this innocent looking young woman was interested in her man. Her eyes stared at Sage’s face. “You and your brother have a knack to find special girls.”

The saiyan boy boyishly smirked at her. “Do you count yourself in that, B? I remember you coming to me instead.”

Bulma's cheek immediately reddened. “You idiot. You better come back soon, Master Roshi said that we would need your dropship to change island for our training.

“Gimme 30 minutes and I will be here.” Sage replied with a sharp mock-salute.

Back with Sage…

After I returned to Kame House, things went fast. Bulma introduced me to two purplette that I recognized, Ranfan and Pie Pie who somehow had legs. It seems that mermaids could get legs if their fishtail half got dry to access land.

Master Roshi stored his house in a capsule and climbed on board the Pelican after giving me the coordinates of the island he wanted us to land on. The travel was short, it took us five minutes while flying to reach it; it was the biggest island of the archipelago attached to the southern continent, there was a farming community there, numbering at least three hundred people.

We landed on the island, where no one will be bothered by three houses popping up. We chose a cliff overlooking the beach toward where the island of master Roshi was located. Mother helped flatten the ground with an application of Ki beam and the robotic constructor I brought did the rest.

Bulma decapsulated the bungalows we built, and with big booms the three shelters appeared on each side of Kame House with a small plascrete courtyard between the houses. I placed the water collectors and tanks, the water filters and the solar panel antenna, linking everything to the houses to have access to electricity, and water.

But I wasn't done, later I will have to build the shed with the food synthesizer and the waste collection device for farming purposes. Meanwhile all the girls had their own house, the workers had one for them, while Bulma and Chi-chi would share a house.

The bungalow houses were utilitarian in their layout, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a combined kitchen, dining room and a living room.

Pie Pie came to me and asked if I could build her an aquarium as she wasn't used to sleeping on land and that for health reasons she needed to frequently dip into salt water. This small interlude forced me to build a small salt water swimming pool with a filter for the mermaid in her room and a top of the line saiyan infirmary of my own design in a separate building connected to Kame House. 

After finishing setting up the houses, Launch and Ranfan went to work to make tonight’s meal as the night was already there. Pie Pie went to the sea with Kakarot to fish a giant tuna, she knew where they were located.

It was interesting to see the teamwork between everyone to prepare dinner. This gave me time to organize my small wardrobe and take care of Bulma who seemed to feel lonely. I must not forget that this girl basically changed her species out of love for me.

That is why I sat myself at her side on the garden bench with a cold drink, looking at the moonless sky. Bulma was working on the small Tactile tablet computer I've given her; from what I could see, she was making formulas about miniaturization. 

“Ah finally alone with you B, what are you working on?” I wrapped my arm around her waist, her tail immediately seeking mine to intertwine with.

“Looking for a way to shrink living beings.” She answered without looking at me.

She was in the zone, this always happened when she had an epiphany and she felt the need to write down calculations and some of her ideas. Her fingers were flying fast on the touchscreen but I could see what she was doing. “Huh, for that you'd need a good power source able to affect the molecular structure of organic matter without destroying them. Your father already found the solution for inorganic and dead matter, but you only got half the equation right.”

“Show me.” Bulma handed me the tablet after opening a new document. 

“Sure, B.” I said as I wrote a formula that would alter the strength of the charge of the electrons and protons, allowing the atoms to move closer together. Anti-graviton particles are also involved, suspended in a sub-dimensional matrix.

When I was done and saved the document, Bulma ripped the tablet out of my hand, and had a crazed look on her face. The bluenette started working in earnest by expanding the documents and writing more high level math and formulas. I found her so cute when she was so focused, but I didn’t move and started meditating while waiting for Pie Pie and Kakarot to get the food.

One hour later, Kakarot and his mermaid friend came back with two yellow fin fatty giant fish.

“We're back, everyone!” The mermaid shouted while sitting on the magic cloud, waving at everyone with a smile.

Kakarot was dragging the two giant fish on a giant tarp. “Big bro help us prepare the fishes!”

My tail disentangled from Bulma's and I stood up. “Coming right away.”

My girlfriend was still lost in her research as I went to help prepare dinner. That night we ate our fill with everyone, it was like a big family gathering; I was surprised to see how I liked being around people and my family. We went to bed with full belly and Bulma sneaked into the boys’ bungalow and slept at my side.

I would never kick her out of bed…

The sun was starting to rise and life seemed to return gradually to the small tropical island. Farmers woke up and started taking care of their cattles and fields, but the peaceful start of this morning was disturbed by the noise of a submachine gun.

Ratatatata!!!

“Rise and shine everyone! It’s time for breakfast!” Blonde Launch shouted in the courtyard. 

Sage, Kakarot and Bulma were the first to wake up, their eyes alert and falling on the smirking blonde. Sage walked up to her and said, annoyed, “Launch, can't you be less loud in the morning?”

“Nope. You lazy asses, the old man has a lot to do today.” She replied with an unrepentant tone and placed her weapon on her thigh holster.

Bulma's gaze filled with vengeful flame as she now keeps who ruined her nookie time with her boyfriend. “So it's Roshi's fault, I should have known.”

“Calm down, B. The old man is going to train us, we're going get stronger!” Sage gave a side hug to his girlfriend.

Master Roshi chose that moment to exit his home, he wore his usual Hawaiian shirt, shorts, sandals and Turtle shell. His hands were behind his back as he stopped before the small group. “Oh oh oh, young people should be more active. Back in my days we had to walk ten kilometers to school, uphill, both ways, in a blizzard carrying a bag of rocks.”

“There's no way that's true…” Bulma glared at him.

The elderly laughed. “Hehehe, you'd be surprised. Come children, we will eat our fill and then we start training.”

Everyone else woke up, even Gine and Gohan who decided to leave after breakfast to return to Mount Paozu. Chi-chi wasn't a morning person and she was grumpy, almost snapping at everyone before calming down with some food in her belly.

Their breakfast consisted of condensed fish meat, steamed rice, eggs and vegetables. Launch and Ranfan were getting good at handling the food synthesizer after Gine showed them how to operate it. The leftover giant fatty fish that they served this morning was processed with the food synthesizer and placed in storage in the freezers. 

It was enough food to feed four Saiyans, and Master Roshi thanked Kami that Sage and Bulma had anticipated the need to prepare before coming to the elderly for training. 

Launch watched in shock Bulma, Sage, Gine and Kakarot demolish the huge portions of food and stack the bowls on the table. Gine finished first and said, “Not bad, Launch, Ranfan. With practice you should be able to cook for people like us, you should have added more salt to the rice and three drops of vinegar in the fish broth.” 

“Ran-chan, take notes.” Launch snapped her fingers.

“Okay!” The purplette pulled a notebook and a pen from between her chest, causing at the same time Master Roshi's nose to start bleeding.

Gine put down her chopsticks on the table, then stood up. “Thank you for the food, it's now time for me and father to leave. Master Roshi, please take care of my children and their friends.”

“Ma'am, don't worry.” Master Roshi nodded after wiping his nose with a handkerchief.

Gohan walked up to the three boys and looked at each of them, even Kuririn who gulped at the intense gaze thrown at him. “Boys, don't forget to behave. Call us once a week will you?”

“We will, grandpa!” Kakarot hugged his grandpa, even wrapping his tail around his leg, causing the elderly to chuckle.

Gine turned to Sage and Bulma who as usual were side by side, tail entwined. “Sage, Bulma. Sleep in your respective house, okay? I let it slide last night because your training didn't start yet.”

The two teenagers looked stricken and embarrassed for being singled out by the saiyan matriarch.

“Yes, Gine…” Bulma didn't dare look into the eyes of the older and stronger saiyan female. The blue haired girl couldn't believe she was busted this easily.

Sage shrugged nonchalantly. “Sure, mom.”

His arm wrapped protectively around Bulma's shoulders; Gine didn't seem to like that answer, so she added, “No children unless you both reach 5000 PL. I want my grandkids to be strong and to survive if Frieza finds us.”

Sage gasped in shock. “Mom! That's a lot!”

“That’s unfair.” Bulma whined as she held onto Sage's right arm. 

Gine smiled at their reactions; now that she has given the stick, she used the carrot and encouraged the kids. “But doable. You two are both smarter than anyone I know, you'll find a way to become stronger.”

Sage took this in stride and puffed out his chest and raised four fingers. “Mom, give me four years, I should be able to surpass 5000 PL.”

Gine smiled at the determination that her son showed, it reminded her of his father. She walked up to him and patted his cheek.“Oh, I want to see that, my big boy.”

 Sage blushed and chose to stoically cross his arms under his chest while averting his eyes. Gine giggled at his reaction, she liked to see her proud son flustered.

Bulma touched Sage's arm and asked in an uncertain tone, “Can we really do it, honey?”

Sage gave her a thumbs up and a smile. “Of course, B. We already developed the tech to get stronger.”

Bulma was confused for a moment and she tried to remember all the projects she made with her boyfriend; the fire extinguishing foam, the gravity device, the Pelican… her eyes opened wide. “The gravity manipulation device?!”

She understood right away what Sage meant, Saiyan grew in power under pressure! Using gravity to stimulate their body and adapt was a fast way to grow their power level.

Sage nodded. “Yeah, we will need to work harder to make it go to a higher setting, for now 5 G is the best we can do.” 

Gine shook her head, she knew that it was time for her to leave before those two started to delve into science speak. “It's time for us to leave, good bye everyone!”

(Kuririn) 

10 minutes later…

As the sea breeze struck his face, Kuririn stood next to his fellow pupils. They were on the land directly behind the compound created by Sage and his girlfriend, Bulma. Kuririn was ambivalent about everything that happened, he joined the Kame School like he wanted, but he wasn't the only disciple. 

Son Sage was strong, Kakarot too, even the girls, Bulma and Chi-chi. He saw it when they started stretching or shadow boxing, the air screamed when they punched and kicked. But he wasn't losing hope, he would become strong too!

Master Roshi looked at all of them. “You four will now begin your special training, at last…”

Kakarot shouted excitedly, “Hooray!”

Kuririn liked how simple that guy was, so far he treated him well and even spoke about techniques with him last night. This was the first time someone treated him well and didn't call him a noseless weirdo.

Master Roshi turned to the small monk. “Let’s start with Kuririn. Do you have any experience in the martial arts?”

Kuririn stood straight and smiled. “Yes! I studied for eight years at Orin temple.”

Roshi nodded and fondled his beard. “I see! It’s reassuring.” 

Kuririn seemed to be ahead of the curve with his prior training. He watched as Roshi looked at Kakarot and his older brother. “Sage and Kakarot, you’ve learned the basics of the Kame style with Gohan, right?”

“Yes, master.” Sage responded in a lackadaisical manner.

Kuririn frowned, that guy was so cold sometimes; compared to him his little brother Kakarot was warmer and more social. “I learned everything grandpa was willing to teach.”

The small monk began muttering about nepotism under his breath, that is how those two girls and boys next to him became students. He kicked a stray stone from the ground in annoyance. 

The elder martial artist said, “I believe in Gohan's teachings.” 

Roshi looked at the two girls at the tailed boys’ side. “What about Bulma and Chi-Chi?”

Bulma coughed and said while raising her hand and turning it into a fist, “Sage has gotten to just start showing me the ropes…”

“She's super talented. She learns techniques fast.” Sage complimented his girlfriend.

Kuririn mimicked gagging as those two kept flirting. It was finally Chi-chi's turn and she said more seriously, “Father has taught me Kame style since I could walk.”

This alarmed Kuririn, the girl did look really strong; she was also similar in age. The black haired girl wore a dark purple wushu uniform with a Ox symbol on her back. She was very pretty and regal looming…

Chi-chi looked back at Kuririn and frowned at him. “What are you looking at?”

“S-sorry.” Kuririn lowered his eyes, not able to handle the glare thrown at him.

“Hmph.” Chi-chi took Kakarot's hand in hers, the tailed boy looking at her cluelessly. He smiled at and wrapped his tail around her leg, causing the girl to blush and giggle.

Kuririn made an ugly expression, it seemed that the boys and girls had already paired up. This should have been me! Not them!

Roshi chuckled at the children and said out loud, “Excellent, I see that I will have to focus on young Bulma to teach her the basics.”

“Argh, I'm considered the weak link?” Kuririn heard the older girl complain.

This caused master Roshi to chuckle, then he became serious; his sunglasses reflected the sun’s light as he said, “I will be blunt, I want you all to show me what you got.”

He slammed the butt of his staff in the ground, keeping it planted here as he walked forward and stopped ten meters away from them. He pointed a finger at the tree far ahead and at a big rock. “So listen up! There's about 100 meters from this rock to that tree. How many seconds do you think you can run there in?”

Kuririn stared at the distance between the two locations and thought that he could do this in ten seconds. He was confident in his speed, it was one of the things he had worked on to escape his bullies in the Orin Temple.

Master Roshi continued and said, “Just because you can run fast doesn’t necessarily mean you can become a great martial artist, but it’ll prove you have solid legs and loins.”

Kuririn stepped forward, a grin on his noseless face. “Fufufu…. I’ll go first. I have legs swift enough to enter the olympics!”

“Ok let’s see, son!” Roshi pulled a chronometer out of his pocket.

The small monk got into a sprinting position with a knee and his two hands on the ground, while staring seriously at the tree.

Master Roshi, who was now next to the tree, shouted, “Ready…”

Kuririn raised his butt, readying himself to run.

“Go!” 

Dash! Kuririn ran as if his life depended on it, with all his might. When Kuririn reached the tree and passed right next to master Roshi. “Haaaahh!!”

Roshi pushed the stop button of the chronometer right at that moment. “Oooh amazing! 10.4 seconds!! That’s really something!!”

Kuririn put his hands on his hips and started breathing in and out while boasting, “10.4 seconds? My personal best is a solid 10, though… well I guess that’s about right considering the circumstances hahaha…”

Roshi stared at the small monk, chuckled at him and replied, “I see, good for you. Kuririn.” The elderly turned to the other group of disciples and shouted at the tall boy amongst them, “Now it’s Sage’s turn!”

The boy stepped forward and put himself into position and Roshi said, “Reaaaady!”

The boy stared at Kuririn with a small competitive smile. Roshi shouted, “Go!”

Kuririn didn't see the boy move, one moment he was next to the rock, the next he was right next to Master Roshi and him. 

“... 4.2 seconds!” Roshi said in a surprised voice.

The small monk looked at the other boy with wide eyes. The other girls had the same expression as him while Kakarot sported a bored expression. Kuririn gulped, what kind of monster was that Sage guy?

“OMG, Sage you're fast!” Bulma cried out with a comically shocked expression on her face.

“That’s inhuman, big brother!” Chi-chi expressed. 

Roshi slapped Sage's back. “Oh oh oh, not bad! I like that internal Ki technique you developed for running.”

For once, Sage didn't look so smug. “Oh you noticed… I call it cloud steps.”

Master roshi fondled his beard. “Good, good, I like that my students have developed their own techniques.”

“”Do you want me to share it with you, master?” Sage offered.

“Later, Sage. I already have an idea on how you did it.”

Kuririn raised an eyebrow at that, Sage taught his self-made techniques? He was interested in that. “Can you teach me, Sage?”

“Sure, Kuririn. We're all friends here.” Sage nodded at him with a slight smile on his face, he patted Kuririn's bald head, but not in a mean way.

Kuririn had expected the older boy to refuse and be less than friendly to him. But he seemed like he shouldn't have assumed… Everyone here so far has treated him better than everyone from the temple he grew up in. Sage retracted his hand and crossed his arm under his chest as he stared at the other disciple.

“Kakarot, it’s your turn!” Master shouted at the little boy who perked up and gave a bright smile. Kakarot adopted a running position and waited for the signal.

“Ready!”

“Go!”

Kakarot seemed to glide more than running, but he was really faster than Kuririn. The small monk was surprised to see the other boy reach the tree faster than him.

“Oh oh. 8.6 seconds. Not bad either.” Master Roshi said.

“I'm slower than big brother…” Goku seemed dejected while glaring at Sage.

The older boy looked smugly at him. “I'm your big brother.”

How competitive are those two? Asked Kuririn in his heart, but he felt a bit jealous that Kakarot had such a good family member.

“Did you teach your brother your technique?” Kuririn asked Sage.

The older tailed guy nodded. “Almost everything I developed, Kakarot mimicked with a look, he is annoying sometimes. My little brother is a genius.”

There was pride in his voice as he patted his little brother's head. Kakarot batted it away with a playful smile, “I'm not a baby anymore.”

Bulma's turn came and she beat Kuririn's time by one second; as for Chi-chi, she did slightly worse than Kakarot at 8.9 seconds. Bulma was surprised that she could go this fast, Chi-chi didn't seem even phased, and as for Sage he optimiscally said that they would get better with time.

“You're all really fast. That's amazing! But… unfortunately, you're all at a mere human level. In order to become a perfected martial arts master, you must overcome the human limits. This is where things get hard…”

Roshi threw the chronometer at Kuririn. “Kuririn, keep time for me…”

The small monk caught the device. “Eeh you're going to run too, master?”

He simply replied, “I'll show you younguns, how it's done.” The old man took off his Turtle shell and walked up to the stone landmark. 

Kuririn said, “Well then, here I go… Ready!”

“Go!” 

Once again, Kuririn lost sight of the runner for a second and the next, Master Roshi reappeared right next to the tree. The small monk pushed the stop button and looked at the time he did. With shaking hands, he said… “1.9 seconds…”

“Oh oh oh, I've still got it. See that kids, you should all be able to go this fast.”

Everyone stared at the old man with big eyes full of surprise, even Sage who had been proud of his performance earlier.

“Amazing.” Kuririn and Kakarot found themselves speaking in sync.

(General pov)

This is how the intense training of Master Muten Roshi began. It started with the harsh milk delivery job on the island. They have to deliver milk to everyone on the island, before breakfast while zig zapping between a long stretch of trees and run up a severely long flight of stairs in the mountain. It had exhausted everyone, even Sage to reach the top with their loads.

When Goku, Bulma and Kuririn felt fatigue and started complaining, Roshi told them how his previous disciple Gyūmaō and Gohan went through the same exercise as this, and never once complained about it. That shut up the malcontent and it made Bulma and Kakarot more determined to finish their exercise. Kuririn, not wanting to be left behind, struggled to keep up.

When they were done, they were all exhausted and went to have breakfast; but Roshi, the slave driver, announced that milk delivery was only early morning training and that now it is time for mid-morning training. The next training is to plow through the field where they would grow food in this area but, since this training is meant to strengthen the hand, it has to be done bare-handed.  

“No way, I’m going to break my nails!” Bulma complained at the time.

Sage calmed her down with, “B, stop thinking like a human. You’re a saiyan! Your nails are made of hardened keratin.”

“Oh… my bad.” Bulma blushed and was a bit embarrassed to have reacted this way when even Chi-Chi, who is a real Princess, didn't even whine about it.

Blue Launch sneezed at that moment and turned into blonde launch while using pepper to season the beef she had bought on the market. Fortunately, nothing happened as she continued cooking; but she was a bit distracted by watching a shirtless Sage.

After farming with their bare hands, Master Roshi made everyone get lunch and a big nap. Then he brought them to town on the island to do construction work. Apparently construction work would help them with their muscle and balance, and for them to earn some money on the side. Master Roshi tells the children that they do not have to use their hands to dig, but just no power tools. 

Everyone around them was surprised to see Bulma and Chi-Chi shovel, unloaded, and wheelbarrowed for the next few hours as good as the other boys. They worked fast and efficiently, Sage and Bulma in particular. After the construction work, master Roshi brought everyone to go swimming, and they went to a lake… infested with giant freshwater sharks. Swimming in this lake is no cakewalk as the sharks patrol the lake, and everyone beside Sage swam for their lives as the sharks chased them. 

Bulma and Kuririn were the fastest swimmers as their fear of being eaten by the sharks prompted them to go fast. In the next training exercise after that, Master Roshi tied everyone to a tree with a rope.The old man explained to his disciples that sometimes one is cornered and must dodge the enemy.

The girls and Kuririn asked what they would be dodging from and… with a sadistic ‘oh oh oh’ Master Roshi hits a beehive and hides behind a tree. The bees began to give chase to everyone, even Sage had a bad time dodging them all. When the sun was setting, the training was finally over for the day.

That was their first day of training, they were all suffering from bee stings and exhaustion. The next day they had to do it all over again but with turtle shells on their backs while they did the training. The girls, Kuririn and Kakarot received the twenty-two kilograms shells while Sage got the eighty kilograms one, because he was stronger than his fellow disciples.

Bulma complained a lot about the training each night and saying how she needed more variety in her food.

Two months of this gruelling training, Sage and Bulma understood right away what Roshi was doing after they saw their personal power level climb thanks to their scouters. Bulma went from a power level of 44 to 60, Sage went from 150 to 180, Kakarot from 90 to 105, Chi-Chi from 57 to 80 as she worked hard to try to keep up with Kakarot. Kuririn went from 50 to a solid 78.

Things were going well so far, if their power level has risen this much, they could add more to Master Roshi’s training to become even more powerful! Bulma contacted her father to have a certain item delivered to the island…

(Bulma Brief)

2 months later…Gravity Room

Placed right behind the Food Synthesizer shed was the half dome shaped building that was delivered just one week ago. It was a gravity room, one of the new advances from Capsule Corp; this was developed by Sage and Doctor Brief to manipulate gravity to five times that of Earth’s. The field was generated by artificial gravity generator at the center of the room, 

Bulma and Sage were not happy with the design of the room, it would have been better if the gravity field was generated through the walls by emitters. The blue haired saiyan drew new plans for the updated version of the gravity room and sent it by mail to her father to their personal data server.

Nevertheless, everyone has started exercising into the room at 2 gravity, even master Roshi benefited from this new facility. A new solar generator needed to be added to the compound as the gravity room was hungry for energy; Sage was looking for a way to develop a micro-fusion generator and use it for the compound’s needs. Bulma was working on it with him…

Anyway, in the room Bulma and Master Roshi faced each other for their daily sparring session. The room’s light went from a soft white to red, the white tiles inside the room gained a crimson color and the gravity changed from 1 to 2. 

“Come here, old man. Time to beat you up!” Bulma jumped up and down on her feet and made a come on sign with her hand.

Master Roshi’s sunglasses gleamed as he entered into the Kame style stance. “Oh oh oh, Bulma-chan, you still have the foolishness of youth.”

The blue haired girl smirked and charged at him, throwing a punch at Roshi(s face, but it was deflected.  okayBulma threw another hook and Roshi just to have him move back. Roshi was playing a defensive game as he could see every move Bulma made; the girl decided to use Sage’s technique, cloud steps, and literally flowed forward performing a roundhouse kick targeting Roshi’s center of body.

Instead of avoiding it, Roshi blocked the hit, too bad for him that Bulma seized the initiative and took his arm between her legs and used his arm to pivot and used her own weight to throw Roshi on his back. However, the old coot successfully escaped her hold and laughed at her.

“You're getting good at strategizing on the fly Bulma-chan, though your adaptation and improvisation still need work. But you’re slowly getting there with the others and closing the gap.” Roshi started to seriously give his opinion on Bulma’s efforts.

The blue haired saiyan nodded, taking the constructive opinion of Roshi in stride. Her master commanded her, “Again.”

This time Bulma took on a Kame style and immediately charged Roshi; she used the entirety of her body to strike him with her shoulder and Roshi blocked it. They exchanged punches and kicks right after, Bulma successfully hitting Roshi with a palm strike, but in exchange, her master grabbed her arm and threw her on the ground.

Bulma rolled on the ground, mitigating her fall and was quickly on her feet. She charged forward and cupped her hand to shoot a blue colored ki projectile. “Kikoken!”

Feeling danger, Roshi evaded by rolling on the right. The ki beam must have been short range because it dissipated when it got more than six meters from Bulma. Roshi stared at the girl with new eyes and asked, “That’s new, who taught you that?”

Bulma smirked. “My boyfriend.”

Roshi shook his head and chuckled. “Sage really looks out for you huh. You two train a lot in this room; I can feel that you’re getting stronger by the day. Maybe too fast…”

“We have our own reasons to seek power, Master.” Bulma shrugged as she cracked her neck and knuckles.

Roshi took on a horse stance. “I will listen to them when you feel that you can trust me.”

It was Roshi’s turn to attack, he charged toward Bulma; the blue haired saiyan stepped forward and threw a high kick that her master avoided by sidestepping it, however, Bulma adapted and threw at him a series of fast kicks at blurring speed. Roshi tanked them by crossing his forearms before him, protecting his head and chest.

Bulma stopped, but focused her Ki into her fist, and used a chambered punch to break Roshi’s stance. When she struck him, his arm raised in the air, uncovering his face; this allowed Bulma to jump right knee first to break Roshi’s face. The old man leaned back and caught Bulma's knee and forced her on the ground and punched her stomach strongly enough to send her flying into the wall behind her.

Master Roshi watched the girl land on her feet and stared at him in a pissed off manner. “Hey that hurt!”

“You’re one of those vaulted Saiyan, right? You can take it.” Roshi quipped.

The master was made aware of the history and physiological need of the saiyan race; he has completely stopped treating Bulma with kiddy gloves when Sage told him that his race thrived against adversity and quickly adapted to difficult training.

“Argh!” Bulma jumped at him, feet first, performing a hook kick.

Roshi shook his head, sidestepped her attack and caught her by the neck. He slammed Bulma into the floor repeatedly. “You must not give in to anger, Bulma. It gives you great power, but at the price of you getting tunnel vision and losing rationality.”

“Ouch…” The blue haired saiyan girl said as she looked up at the ceiling.

Roshi relaxed his stance and said, “We’re going to stop here today, I’m satisfied with your progress. You should go in the healing tank for a little while; I will tell Sage to teach you more meditation and ask Launch to chaperone you. If I leave you two alone, you jump on each other all the time.”

Bulma glared at him, she didn’t like having the other girl who was clearly after her man present when they were training. But she understood that she needed to take Roshi’s commands seriously. “F… fine.”

“Now, I must go get my back massaged by Ranfan-chan. Buh bye!” Roshi left with a happy gait.

Bulma raised her hand to the ceiling while still being laid on her back, her hand closed into a fist. “I’m getting the hang of this.”
