10 Eternal Dragon Shenron

Goku handed over the last Dragonball to Bulma. Bulma with all Dragon Balls on hand, hesitated for a second, before shoving all the balls into Goku's arms. Seeing that Goku was a little confused, Bulma explained herself. "You helped realize a couple of things in our time together. I realized that I don't need to summon a perfect boyfriend but to look for a boyfriend while accepting his imperfections as he does to me. That is the only way to achieve love. Well... a better way than wishing for one."

"Don't you have other stuff you want to wish for? Asked Goku. "Oh please, I have everything already. Looks, money, entertainment...consider this a payment for helping me not die multiple times" She said. Goku nodded and placed all the dragon balls on the ground. "Eternal Shenron, by your name I summon you forth" he shouted. The dragon balls started to glow and a golden light pierced the sky. Then the sky went dark as if it was night covered with black clouds and lightning cracked. The golden light beam soon started to slowly transform into a figure of a huge dragon. The golden light shed itself, revealing a green dragon with red eyes that glowed with power. The mighty dragon had horns on his head and fangs that looked like razors while the tail seemed to be protruding from the Dragon Balls.

Looking at the Dragon, Goku was smiling with slight tears from the corner of his eyes thanking the gods for this opportunity. Little did he know that it was a demon that gave him this chance.

"I am the Eternal Dragon Shenron, I can grant you one wish. State your wish."

Hearing this, Goku came out of his thoughts and said "Shenron, I wish to be able to breathe in space". The eyes of the dragon glowed red for some time and it said "Your wish has been granted. Farewell". And the dragon balls flew up and started rotating. But before it flew away, Goku jumped and caught a single dragon ball. He is not naive as the real Goku and doesn't want anyone to use or literally abuse the Dragon balls. If someone had an evil wish, then they had to go through him. He doesn't know what changes he brings and if someone wishes for world domination or something not like in the anime, it won't be good. He doesn't want to take any chances.

Bulma seeing his actions asked "Well Goku, why did you suddenly catch a ball?" Goku showed the ball in his hand that had turned into stone saying "I caught my grandfather's Dragonball. Too bad it turned into stone, but O'well. Something is better than nothing. And I also want to protect the balls from evil people making wish. So it's better I hang on to one." Bulma nodded hearing his explanation.

Bulma then thanked Goku for accompanying her in this journey. "Goku, my holidays are about to end. So I'll have to return back." Goku nodded "Then let's go Bulma. I also want to visit the city and I'll drop you safely at your home." He said and both of them went in the direction of west city. After a while, both of them reached Bulma's home. Goku had dinner at bulma's house and slept for the night.

Next morning, Goku woke up early and went into the garden and met Dr. Briefs. He then pulled out the capsule that Bulma had given him and took out the space-pod he had come in and handed it to Dr. Briefs. "This is an alien space pod I found. By researching it, can you make a spaceship with Gravity chamber that can increase the gravity upto a hundred times or more?" He asked. Dr.Briefs was excited to see such technology. "Where did you get this my boy? After studying it, I'll be able to make it. But it'll take time" He said.

Goku nodded "Take as much time as you would like. But can you also add a setting in which you can increase the temperature and also pressure inside the room?" Dr.Briefs contemplated for a moment and said "Yes that might be possible." Goku smiled. At the same time, Panchy called them to have their breakfast. Goku went to the dining room and started eating after thanking Panchy. Bulma also woke up and arrived at the table. Goku greeted bulma while eating. "So Goku, what are your next plans?" Goku thought for some time "I'll go to Master Roshi for training. I'll drop by whenever I am free." He said. Bulma nodded and Goku left to Roshi's island on his Nimbus.

On the way he started thinking 'I will train with Roshi for a short while. As I am now, I'm stronger than Roshi, but Roshi has many techniques that I need to learn. I'll learn everything from him and then leave for korin tower. That way I can get all that earth has to offer and then think about what to do next. Hopefully the Gravity chamber will be ready at that time." Thinking all this, Goku headed on his journey to get stronger.
