Goku woke up to a blinding light while feeling extremely light-headed.
'What's going on? Where am I? Is this what they call the legendary hangover?'
As Goku groggily stood up, he could hear someone opening a door.
"Ah, Goku my boy you are awake. I will go inform Bulma, you have been sleeping all day since Bulma brought you in."
To his right was a stubby old man with glasses adorning his face. He was typing on something on his wrist while talking to him.
"Dr. Briefs?"
"Indeed! Oh, looks like Bulma is very-"
Before he can finish, Bulma burst through the door and hugged Goku when she saw that he was awake.
Goku, stuck between two mountains of flesh, struggled to breathe from Bulma's death grip. Before he can pass out once more, Bulma let him go so he can breathe air again.
"W-What happened Bulma? Where am I?" Goku quickly asked before anything escalated any further.
"After the wish, I rushed you to the nearest hospital. While in the car you were squirming nonstop and it looked like you were in pain. Half-way there you stopped but I still went just in case. When I arrived they told me that you were just unconscious from the pain and that they didn't know what was wrong with you. They did know that you were going to be fine after you wake up so I just took you here to my house to see if my Dad can see what was wrong with you."
"Ah, sorry Bulma. When I made the wish I didn't think that was going to happen."
At the mention of the wish, the sad Bulma instantly turned angry. She slapped him right on his cheek leaving behind a red mark.
"You little! I can't believe you made a wish that would hurt you like that! Do you know how worried I was?! Hmph!"
Bulma stormed out after her little rant leaving Goku with her father.
"That was a sight to see. Well, Goku, I couldn't find anything wrong with you even with all my tools. If it wasn't obvious from your 'Great Ape Transformation' and tail, you aren't human. That's all I can infer, I will have to up my technology after this!"
Goku feeling a little embarrassed decided to ask, "Will Bulma be alright? She seemed pretty mad?"
Bulma's father looked at Goku with an amused expression. "She was pretty shaken up when she saw you in that state of pain. She should be fine soon though, just give her some space."
"I will give her some space, I must have shaken her up really bad. Tell her that I will be training at Master Roshi's place for the time being."
After receiving the curt nod of Dr. Briefs, Goku made his way out of the laboratory to head out to Master Roshi's place.
As much as Goku wanted to explore his newfound powers that Shenron unlocked, he would be late to arrive at Master Roshi's training.
---
After a short while on Kintoun, Goku is finally able to see Master Roshi's place in the middle of the ocean.
On that island, Goku can see Master Roshi talking to a short cue ball with perverted expressions on their face. Sitting on a chair, one could also see a pig just lounging around doing nothing.
"HEY MASTER ROSHI! I AM HERE FOR MY TRAINING!"
Goku swooped down and hopped off Kintoun next to the two bald martial artists.
"Oh, it's you! You are here for training as well? I almost forgot!"
"Who are you kid? The Great Master Roshi here already as a disciple!"
The short bald kid had 6 dots on his shiny forehead to compensate for his lack of nose. He snorted at the new arrival in disdain.
"Now now Krillin, I did also promise Goku that I will train him. But of course, he will accompany you on your trip to find someone suitable for my stature!"
"Yeah yeah, find us someone good!" Oolong felt the need to chime in because he felt like he was getting forgotten.
---
After just an hour of traveling, Goku arrived at Master Roshi's abode once more while Krillin was glued to the back of blue-haired beauty that came along.
After hearing them coming back, Master Roshi quickly went outside to see what his discipline's latest catch was.
Long slender legs, booty shorts, and a crop top were all Roshi could see when he was staring in delight at the young curvaceous woman that was on his porch.
Drool seeped into his shirt as he yelled in delight, "YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Everyone had to cover their ears at the old man's yelling before it tears their eardrums apart.
Oolong and Master Roshi was inspecting Launch a little too close to anyone's liking. So before it can get out of hand with Krillin's sucking up, Goku spoke first.
In his most excited tone he can muster, he told his soon-to-be master, "We found her getting chased by the police after she robbed a bank"
"Great! Wait what?" Master Roshi looked a little flustered at the explanation that this innocent looking girl is a criminal.
"D-D-Does not m-matter! HAHA! You two are my disciples now! Hurry wear this uniform!
Master Roshi handed everyone what looked like black lingerie looking at Launch quiet expectantly.
Launch was slowly peeling off her top to change nearly revealing two bright pink bumps on her modest chest until a fly flew past her nose.
"AAACHHOOOO" Her previous blue hair instantly turned blonde like the other color was just an illusion.
She promptly stopped what she was doing to inspect the situation. She quickly pulled a sub-machine gun out of thin air and started blasting everyone to smithereens.
"You god damn perverts!"
---
After arriving on the larger island that would serve as the Turtle School's training down, they quickly settled in.
Launch quickly went inside the capsule house preparing dinner while Master Roshi was preparing to test Goku and Krillin's speed.
"Alright you two, I want you to sprint from that rock to this tree. It is about 100m so do your best."
Krillin started first because he really wanted to show his superiority and quickly become Master Roshi's favorite.
He started in the standard sprint position with his arms touching the ground and his feet ready to bounce.
"Start!"
Krillin moved the millisecond he heard the first word. Moving faster than any normal eye can track, he arrived past in seconds.
"10.3 seconds! You are really something!"
Before Krillin could boast anytime his year, Goku quickly reminded Master Roshi that he was next in line.
"Ah, yes Goku. Ready? Start!"
Goku burst forward from his seemingly relaxed stance straight towards the tree like it was his worst enemy. Goku was a blur that Roshi nor Krillin could believe and he soon also reached the tree.
"Time?"
Roshi snapped out of his daze at the speed of the young martial artists and looked at the time that he recorded.
"7-7.9 seconds!"
Krillin quickly proceeded to almost faint before Roshi caught him and helped him stand up.
"Before you clock out watch this old master show you how it's done."
Master Roshi was hoping that with his speed, he can rejuvenate Krillin's motivation after seeing the gap in power from his rival. After all, Krillin's speed was around his when he was just his age as well.
Master Roshi burst through the track like a star, making everyone look his way while shielding their eyes.
He instantly made it to the tree and asked his time.
"Heok! 5 seconds."
"You see Krillin I was-"
Before Master Roshi could continue, Krillin already fainted standing up.
---
"Hurry it up! Krillin you got to keep up! H-Hey! Did you skip that zig-zag? Do it two more times!"
---
"Hey! Watch where you are throwing that dirt! I am trying to enjoy the view through these binoculars here!"
---
BONK!
"Gosh darn it Krillin! 9+10 is not 21! What stupid person told you that?"
---
"You are not supposed to do actual construction! Only help them! You made this entire bridge fall!"
---
"Oi! We aren't at the beach! Don't splash water on me!"
---
"We shall do all of that, but instead with these 20kg shells!"
Krillin was moved to tears...
"FUUUUU-"
--------------------------------------------------------------
"I don't really have any fight techniques to teach you two. All of the work you have been doing has been honing your body and senses to the max. However, I do have these 40kg as gifts to further your training!
Master Roshi pulled out two more shells that sunk into the ground upon their descent.
'Even though I remember Roshi not teaching them fighting technique, this confirms it. Although they say it is 'martial arts' and know what martial arts are like Karate, it's them mostly just punching and kicking with some ki techniques mixed in. No real martial arts are here like in my old world, only just refined movements compared to people like Caulifla who was labeled a brawler.'
'In my previous life, I never really learned any martial arts but I studied a lot of them to have some mixed knowledge. This will give me an edge in fighting so I hope I can fully utilize my knowledge in this body.'
---
Taking advantage of one of the few breaks that Master Roshi allowed them, Goku hopped onto Kintoun to search for a desolated island when night befell. Finding one, Goku positioned himself at the center waiting for the moon to show itself
'Today I finally get to see Shenron's wish in action. I don't expect to gain control if The Great Ape perfectly today, but some progress would be good.'
Soon, the moon has shown itself in all its glory shooting waves of lunar light to its participants. Goku looked up from his meditating position and instantly his eyes swelled red.
Goku started accumulating hair across his entire body and grew meter by meter into the infamous Great Ape transformation.
'I-I think! It still hard to control! But least I can control!'
Goku had a hard time adjusting to his newfound height and extreme fury that was hidden inside such a monstrous transformation. To counteract this, Goku in his Great Ape form sat in a meditating position to calm his mind.
--------------------------------------------------------------
"It is time for the World Martial Arts Tournament! You two can take off your turtle shells now!"
Goku and Krillin promptly took off their shells and observed their bodies. They soon notice that their bodies responded to them better than before and felt like they had limitless stamina.
"Try to jump your hardest!"
After Master Roshi's encouragement, the Turtle Hermit apprentices jumped as hard as they can leaving a puff of smoke in their wake. They easily jumped a few meters and were still rising. They reached their apex looking at each other surprisingly before gravity took control.
'T-This power! It's so invigorating! I feel like I can do anything! This is what it means to surpass human limits!'
Goku and Krillin suited up and boarded their luggage before setting off to stomp on their competition.
After going between various different vehicles, they finally arrived at the World Martial Arts Tournament registration stands.
"These two will be participating..."
As Master Roshi was signing them in, Goku was currently observing everyone that has shown up to participate. People of all different shapes and looks were participating hoping to take a spot in the finals even though some looked like regular people wishing to get lucky.
When Goku was looking through at the participants, he heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Ah, Goku it's you! You didn't even say goodbye the last time I saw you!"
Turning his head around he saw a Bulma in a crazy new hairstyle with capsule corp logo clothes. Seeing her new look, Goku could not help but feel that although it was kind of out there, it fit her nonetheless.
"Well last time you were quite angry with me so I thought it would have been better to just leave.
Goku had a wry smile on his face at the approaching Bulma. She had a pout as she strutted forward towards him.
Krillin's jaw dropped at Bulma's beauty and their implicit conversation. He started to poke Oolong in the ribs to ask him the question that floated in his mind when he saw Bulma.
"W-Who is this gorgeous lady? How does she know Goku so familiarly?!"
"Her? That's Bulma. Don't be charmed by her looks, she is a devil in human skin! As far as I know, they aren't in a relationship but who knows. They went on a crazy adventure together and had a lot of time to themselves."
Before Krillin could respond, Bulma, when she was close to Goku, suddenly squeezed the life out of him once again.
Krillin's eyes bulged out at the display before cursing himself.
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCC-"

(Bonus Scene)
Sitting on top of a floating island in the middle of nowhere, a frizzly Neko was lounging around.
What was particularly weird was what the Neko was sitting on. He was sleeping on a beanbag shaped object made entirely out of green beans.
Said Neko wakes up with a yawn and started looking at the overflowing amount of green beans in his home.
"Oh Kami, I should really do something about these Senzu beans! They are overtaking my home!"
The Neko was contemplating before ultimately deciding on the most unforgivable sin in this universe.
"Ahh, I should just destroy them! All they do is feed a normal person 10 days and nothing else! Useless otherwise!"
The Neko proceeded to destroy the overflowing beans...
(A/N: Neko means cat in Japanese, I am not refering to Neko Girls)
Done Done Done.
Just training with Roshi with this one, didn't want to extend this word count but I also didn't want to add more content.
I just had a great idea for an original novel but it requires a lot of work so if I do push the idea, it will probably be after this fan-fic XD.
I hope you enjoyed the Chapter! If you have any suggestions, reviews, or critiques. Please share them with me!
