Chapter 1

In a void blank space, appeared a clump of white light that speeds up like a comet.

The soul of a poor young man who died because of saving little girls' life.

a 17 years old boy, who lives alone, his parent was died by a car accident when he just 12 years old.

Five years of living alone made him grown more mature than his age.

and now he also died by a car accident.

The last thing he thought when he was about to dead is a wish that he never thought would come true when he was alive.

But the god granted his wish.

The last wish he made when he was about to die is...

'I wish I could live in dragon ball universe.'

And somehow his consciousness didn't faded away but still manage to stay in a half-awake state.

At first, his soul appeared in a void blank space where he could hear many whisper from all the direction.

In his half-awake state, he moved to one of the voice source that calling him.

His soul gradually move faster and faster reaching to the voice source until it moves so fast like a comet.

The voice that calling him also getting clearer and clearer.

"Uhhh..."

The boy regained his conciousness and tried to sit as he heard a high pitched voice like a little boy close to him.

"Ahh! Thank god You're awake."

The boy finally can see clearly who is the person that floating near him.

'Huh float?'

The boy surprised when he saw a floating blue cat-like creature that talking to him.

"What are you?" The boy instictively said.

"Are you okay? My name is Puar. Thanks for saving me." Answer the blue cat-like creature.

"Puar?" The boy felt like the name sounds familiar.

"Yes. What is your name?" Asked Puar.

"My name..."

The boy searched for his name in his memory for a second.

"My name is... Yamcha?" The boy surprised when he said his own name.

'I am Yamcha?'

The boy sat for a while as he sort out his memories and he also found that he has Yamcha memory.

According to Yamcha memory, right now he was around 14 years old.

As long as Yamcha's memory can remember, he is an orphan, he didn't know who his parents are.

Even though Yamcha only a 14 years old boy according to his memory, he already act as a desert bandits that robbing any travelers or merchants that pass by his hideout.

Just now, he had a fight with a group of desert bandit that passing by.

At first Yamcha wanted to rob the group of desert bandits but he almost bite something that more than he can chew.

Fortunately, the desert bandits escape after all of the group are beaten and leaving their previous loot for Yamcha.

Yamcha also quite beaten up and spent as he fell unconsciouss inside the desert bandits flying cars.

Unexpectedly, there is Puar bound up inside the desert bandits flying cars.

When Puar saw all the bandits running away from Yamcha, he transform his body to free himself.

"Yamcha-sama are you okay?" Puar voice snapped Yamcha out of his thought.

"Yeah, I'm okay now." Yamcha nodded.

"Thank god... once again, I want to thank Yamcha-sama for saving me." Puar bowed his head.

"Umm... yeah, you're welcome." Yamcha didn't know how he should respond as he didn't even know that Puar was there.

"Yamcha-sama is so strong! You can beat a group of bandits by yourselves! Can I follow you Yamcha-sama?" Said Puar excitedly with shining eyes.

"Yeah sure." Yamcha nodded as he moved to the driver seat.

"As you are now following me, let's go back to my hideout." Said Yamcha as he start up the flying cars engine.

"Yes Yamcha-sama!" Puar responded energitically.

As the boy Yamcha drive the flying cars. His thought wandered off again.

'I can't believe it!!! I am transmigrated to Dragon Ball Universe!!!'

'Hahahaha, my wish came true!'

'But I was transmigrated to Yamcha...'

'Damn... out of all the Z Warriors...'

'But it's fine, I can train my ass off harder than ever, and I'll surpass Son Goku... no... it's hard to surpass that freak Saiyan...'

'I guess, I'll try to surpass myself first? Then I can talk about surpassing Goku'

"Puar, what year is now?" Asked Yamcha without looking.

"Now it's Year 747, what is it Yamcha-sama?"

"Nothing, just asking..." Yamcha smiled and he speeds up the flying cars.

'It's two years away from the start of the canon story.'

'Now I need to plan out my training for these two years.'

After a few minutes, Yamcha and Puar finally arrived at his hideout.

"Puar, help me packed up all the things inside, we're going to travel somewhere." Said Yamcha to Puar as he hopped out from flying cars.

"Okay!" Puar floated following Yamcha.

Yamcha and Puar clean out his hideout, he take all necessary things, like foods, drinks and clothes then stored it inside Hoi-Poi Capsules.

"Where are we going Yamcha-sama?" Puar finally can hold curiousity and asked Yamcha.

"Training." Yamcha answered him

"Where?"

"The Sacred Land of Korin."

Right now, Yamcha only could roughly calculate his battle power, if a normal grown up man in this earth battle power is 2.

Even though Yamcha only 14 years old, he still could fight against half dozen of desert bandits that a little stronger than normal grown up man which have a battle power around 3.

So Yamcha thought his battle power is around 15 or less and not more. With his battle power right now, there are two suitable place that he can go, Karin Tower or go to Master Roshi.

But rather than train under Master Roshi, Yamcha thought train with Korin is better.

After a few days of travel, using binoculars Puar finally spotted a small sky-piercing high tower at a far distance.

"Yamcha-sama, there it is! I see the Korin Tower!" Puar shouted excitedly.

"That's great!! Good job Puar!!" Yamcha happily praise Puar and accelerate his flying cars to the maximum speed.

Around half an hour Yamcha finally reached the base of Korin Tower.

There he found Bora carrying a 2 years old kid Upa.

Bora is the Chief of Karinga Tribe that serve as guardians of Korin Tower.

Yamcha landed his flying cars a few meters away from Bora.

Seeing a foreign people come, Bora still stay in his place with Upa in his arms.

"Hello, my name is Yamcha and this is Puar." Yamcha politely introduce himself and Puar.

"My name is Bora and he is my son Upa." Seeing Yamcha acted polite, Bora also introducing himself.

"I am here to challange Korin Tower, so I'm sorry if I'm disturbing you." Said Yamcha.

"Oh, you are quite young for a martial artist." Bora a little surprised hearing that Yamcha wanted to challange Korin Tower.

"Yes, but I'm quite strong you know." Said Yamcha proudly.

"I am the Chief of Karinga Tribe, the guardian of Korin Tower. So I can't let just anybody go and climb Korin Tower as they wish. You have to prove yourself strong enough so you just don't go to your own death by falling off the tower."

"Sure, I don't mind about having a little bit spar." Yamcha agreed right away.

Bora only smiled and he put Upa down then he moved a few meters away to make some space for a spar.

Yamcha also walked a few meters and do a light stretch.

"Ready?" Bora asked.

"Anytime" Yamcha ready his battle stance.

With a moment of pause, Yamcha dashed to Bora and have the intiative to attack.

Yamcha threw a few fast blows to Bora, but Bora can deflect and block all Yamcha attacks.

First, Yamcha wanted to have a head-on fight with pure strength. Bora leash out a few blows to Yamcha.

The two trade some attacks and blocks. As Yamcha expected, he still a little to weak. Bora have a little advantage in strength aspect.

After trading a few more blows, Yamcha change his tactics and apply the Run-and-Gun.

Using his advantage in speed, Yamcha throw out an attack as he run around Bora and make some opening in Bora defense.

After a few minutes more of spar the two finally stopped.

"Alright, you are strong enough." Bora still looks perfectly fine just a little out of breath.

Yamcha also a little out of breath because he leash out much more blows and run around a lot more than Bora.

As this is only a spar, Yamcha didn't strike Bora on the vital target with his advantage in speed.

But Yamcha himself a little disappointed with his own strength. His raw power is lacking, and his speed only just slightly better. It's so far below than he thought.

'Looks like my battle power is only around 10.' Thought Yamcha as he clenched his fist.

"Mm." Yamcha only nodded as a respond to Bora.

"So, do you want to climb Korin Tower today or tomorrow?" Asked Bora.

Yamcha looked up at the sky, seeing it only a few hours away before dark, he thought he should have a good rest tonight and climb the tower tommorow.

The four of them have quite a good time having a dinner together and talking to each other, with the little Upa playing cheerfully with Puar.

Yamcha then rest early so he can climb the tower tommorow with a fit condition.

On early morning, Upa seemed quite attached to Puar as he cried loudly when Puar followed Yamcha climbing the tower.

Yamcha steadily climb the tower with Puar laying with his belly on Yamcha's head comfortably.

After several hours of climbing, Yamcha's muscle starting to get tired.

"Puar, transform now please." Asked Yamcha.

"Leave it to me Yamcha-sama." Floated off from Yamcha's head.

"Transform!"

With a poof of smoke, Puar turned into a long rope then wrapped himself around Yamcha and the tower.

The tower's diameter is around three grown man hugging the tower so with the help from Puar, Yamcha can rest his tired muscles, but Puar's transformation only lasted a little more than an hour.

With the two helping each other, Yamcha still exhausted from climbing the tower.

He only gritted his teeth and climb.

Puar stamina also running out of gas little by little, as he transform so many times and the time he rest on Yamcha's head is getting shorter.

Hours after hours of climbing. Hours after hours of struggle. Day turned into night. The two still struggling to climb the tower.

Without sleeping, Yamcha and Puar push their own limit and keep on climbing.

A night then turned into dawn. The sky is getting brighter and brighter.

Yamcha climbing so slow because his consciousness almost faded away. His body is almost can't move.

When the sun is right above his head, Yamcha gritted his teeth harder, focusing his eyes and he finally can see a spherical builing around a hundred meters away.

"I can see it... Finally I can see it!" Yamcha's voice woke Puar up who sleeping while clutching Yamcha's head.

'Oh No...' Yamcha felt like his consciousness slipping away.

The feeling when he saw Korin place, making his mind loose and his will somehow relaxed.

In the end Yamcha can't hold on anymore and his vision turned black.

'Shit... am I gonna fall and dead?'

Yamcha passed out.

When he lose his consciousness he dreamed about the future.

In his dream, after he train himself, he still weak

He still a burden...

He still defeated...

He still beaten...

He still killed...

He is alive... but he couldn't do anything.

He disappointed in himself, why didn't he tried harder, why didn't he just train harder.

Why...

Why...

No, I can change it, there is no word too late to change...

I will train harder, I will surpass my limit.

"...ma!!"

'Huh? What's that?'

"...cha-sama!!"

'Puar?'

"Yamcha-sama!! Thank god, you are awake!!" Puar really glad when Yamcha manage to regain conscious.

Yamcha see his body still wrapped to the tower by Puar who transformed into rope again.

"Thanks Puar. How long did I lose my consciousness?" Asked Yamcha.

"It's only a around ten minutes Yamcha-sama."

"You can undo your transformation Puar, I'm good now."

"Mm." Puar turned back to his original body.

When Yamcha unconsciouss, his body could rest as Puar managed to wrapped Yamcha body around the tower.

Yamcha could clearly remember his dream, he steeled his resolve and muster up all his strength.

With all his power, he climbed up the final hundred meters vigorously.

When he got inside the building, he climbed away from the tower and crawled to the building's floor.

"Hahhh... hahh... We made it, Puar..."

"Yess... We made it, Yamcha-sama..."

These two friends feel all their fatigue burst out and make them so tired that they fell asleep right away.

They didn't even noticed a white plump cat holding a cane is standing near them.

"Ho ho ho... what an interesting pair of kids." Korin laughed.

"But you're not qualified yet kid." Korin let the two sleep and walked back.

Only on the noon of the next day did Yamcha and Puar woke up.

The two looked around and see a stairs going to upper floor.

The next floor is the middle of the spherical building, it's only an open space with a small pedestal right in the center.

Right beside the pedestal stood Korin with his long staff that higher than him.

"Welcome, congratulations for making it all the way up here."

"Thank you..."

"Korin, my name is Korin. Here, catch." Korin throw two senzu beans to Yamcha.

"this..." Yamcha managed to catch the two senzu beans effortlessly.

"Senzu Beans, I bet you two are starving after a few days of climbing and sleeping."

"Thanks Mr. Korin."

Yamcha unhesitantly eat senzu bean. When he swallow it, he felt warm energy spread out to all of his body making his tired body to the peak state and satiating his hunger.

Seeing Yamcha eat the senzu bean, Puar also eat the senzu bean making his body feel so much better than ever.

"Wow, what an amazing beans." This is the first time he had a feeling like that.

"Good, you two doesn't need to afraid to get hungry for the next ten days. So you two can go back now." After said that, Korin sit down and tried to sleep again.

"Huh? Wait... we're here to train." Yamcha surprised seeing how Korin acted.

"But you're not managed to climb the tower by yourself, so you are not strong enough yet." Said Korin.

Yamcha didn't say anything for a few seconds.

"So I only need to climb this tower on my own right ?" Yamcha smiled.

"Puar, you stay here, I will go back first and climb this tower again." Yamcha speak as he walked back downstairs.

"But Yamcha-sama." Puar a little bit worried seeing that Yamcha so willingly go back.

"It's okay Puar, just trust me." Yamcha gives Puar a thumbs up.

"Yes" Puar nodded.

Without hesitation Yamcha climbed back down the tower.

Yamcha know that Korin is right. He is not strong enough yet... his endurance and power still isn't enough but Yamcha can feel that he is stronger than before he climb the tower.

In the canon, Goku climbed this tower only in a day, but Yamcha needed a day and a half to climb it with the help of Puar. If he climb it by himself for the first time, he isn't sure if he managed to reach the top.

But as expected climbing down the tower is still quite a challange. Yamcha need to be careful and climbed down steadily.

A day plus a half passed and Yamcha managed to reach the land.

Yamcha felt more tired than his first climbing up. But he managed to do it alone. So he rest early after talked and played for a while with Bora and Upa.

In the morning of the next day, Yamcha felt his body is back to a good shape and climbed back the tower for the second time.

And with another day and a half, Yamcha managed to climbed back the tower alone.

when he arrived at the top, Korin with Puar already waiting for him right in the entrance hole.

"I'm back Puar, Mr. Korin." With a tired body, Yamcha give another thumbs up for Puar and Korin.

"Yamcha-samaa." Puar flew right away to Yamcha.

"Mr. Korin, can I have another senzu bean?" Asked Yamcha tiredly.

"Sure, wait for me in the next floor." Korin walked away as Yamcha and Puar walked to the next floor.

Korin walking to where he kept the senzu beans.

It's only takes a little while till Korin comes back with a little pouch.

"Here, take these beans for now." Korin throw the pouch.

"There are around a dozen of senzu beans." Said Korin.

Yamcha caught the pouch and take out one senzu bean to eat.

"Now, am I qualified to be here?" Yamcha felt his body brimming with energy after he ate senzu bean.

"Yes, of course." Korin nodded.

"So, what is for me next?" Yamcha asked.

Korin walk closer to the center where the bottle of the said 'holy water' are.

"Now, do your best to take this bottle of supreme holy water." Said Korin as he take the bottle with his staff.

"Sure." Yamcha smiled as he knew this already.

"What about me?" Puar also asked Korin.

"Hmmm... just the same thing like a few days ago. You just need to master your transformation to be more precise, transform, turn back and repeat." Korin unexpectedly already teach Puar what to do.

"Okay." Puar nodded.

Hearing that, Yamcha give some suggestion for Puar.

"Puar, how about you transform into me ?" Asked Yamcha.

"I'll try" with a 'poof', Puar transformed into 'Yamcha?'

"What? Is that me?" Yamcha didn't sure if he should laugh or cried.

With another 'poof' Puar turned back to his original body and then transformed again to another 'Yamcha?'

Puar keep transforming into Yamcha and his original body back and forth until he exhausted.

"Now, shall we start?" Yamcha turned his attention back to Korin.

"Anytime you want boy." Korin only stood still.

"Here I come." Yamcha dashed right to Korin.

As so begins Yamcha and Puar training in Korin Tower.

Day by day, Yamcha keep trying without using any dirty trick because he know that this is also a form of training for him. He keep trying and trying with a burning will to get strong.

But because of Yamcha battle power right now is far below when compared to canon story where Son Goku have quite higher battle power, Son Goku only took 3 days to complete the training.

So it began Yamcha's training at Korin Tower.
