Tournament

On the Lookout, Kanalita sat quietly at the edge of the Lookout, a gentle breeze blowing up and ruffling her fiery red hair. After squinting at Mr. Popo, who was training the martial artists in the square, Kanalita redirected her eyes to the shrine below.

Through the hazy sea of fog, Kanalita could see everything in the Lower Realm clearly.

In the southeastern island of the Lower Realm, the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament was in full swing. At this time, the open square was crowded with spectators, watching the fierce competition with fervor, and as the competition proceeded one by one, the top thirty-two of the tournament gradually became the top eight contestants, namely Krillin, Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu, Yajirobe, Son Goku and Chi-Chi.

The former Kami, disguised as Shen, was eliminated in the top thirty-two competition.

However, instead of feeling dejected, Shen, who withdrew from the competition, had a smile on his face because his elimination meant that the overall level of martial arts on Earth had improved and more and more strong people had surpassed him. For the old Kami, who had dedicated his life to Earth, nothing could be more gratifying than this.

"The Earth is giving birth to a new generation, and under Kanalita's leadership, the Earth will go further and further."

"Shen" was leaning on a wooden staff, and by now he had returned the borrowed body to the earthling, while he himself was quietly hidden in the audience.

"The next match is between Krillin and Piccolo!"

As the host announced loudly, Krillin's face straightened, his sight glanced at the opposite Piccolo, and his whole body radiated a strong fighting spirit, letting him test what kind of strength that second generation Piccolo had first.

"Krillin, you have to be careful, the newborn Piccolo ki is rather strange, perhaps it hides what moves may be, and the other party as a Demon Clan will not necessarily comply with the rules of the tournament, you have to pay attention to his movements!" Son Goku seriously said, Krillin's strength was very strong, but Piccolo gave him a strange feeling, vaguely emitting ki, so Son Goku knew that Piccolo's strength was definitely very strong.

If Piccolo did not comply with the rules of the competition, Son Goku was also ready to strike at any time.

Krillin confidently patted his chest, "Understand, I have not spent these years outside training for nothing. I do not know how many large and small battles I have participated in, the minimum confidence is still there, if it is so simple to be eliminated, is not too sorry for my three years of hard training?"

After saying that, Krillin waved his hand and walked up to the martial arts stage, then stood in a corner waiting for Piccolo to come out.

"Hmph, that bald guy is called Krillin, he was present when he killed the last 'me' back then, so we should treat him well!" Piccolo stood on the roof of the Martial Arts Temple with a sneer.

With a cold eye sweep a circle.

With a flash of his body, like a bolt of lightning falling from the sky, Piccolo appeared directly across from Krillin.

"Kid, you are my first step to conquer the world."

"Feel free to let your horse come."

Krillin stepped out and made a martial arts tournament move, his muscles instantly entered a fighting state, and a pair of sharp eyes stared closely at Bicker.

"Tch." With a trace of disgust in the eyes, Piccolo took off the cloak and hat. The moment the body weight was cut away, Piccolo suddenly emitted a harsh aura, affected by this, whether it was Goku or Tien Shinhan, their faces all became staid.

With the whistle of the game, Krillin and Piccolo's battle began. Krillin's strength definitely exceeded most earthlings, and the first strike was enough to shock people's hearts, but Piccolo also had been trained by Birgil, the same strength should not be underestimated.

...

The game continued, as in the original. Although after three years of hard training, the difference between the strength of krillin and Piccolo were different from the original. The difference between the two was not large, and in order to defeat Krillin, Piccolo took out almost all of his strength.

Finally, after making a look at the family's skills, Krillin still regrettably lost the game.

Then the next game was Yamcha and Tien Shinhan match, similarly wonderful. Finally, Tien Shinhan with a number of master moves, and with the help of the Multi-Form achieved victory; the third game, Yajirobe wins Chiaotzu, as for the fourth game, it was Son Goku vs Chi-Chi.

This was a match between an unmarried couple.

Saying that it was a match, it would be better to say that the two people in the ring for the performance of love and affection. Tien Shinhan, Krillin and others who knew the details looked extremely unpleasant, and those who did not know the inside story, such as the audience were amazed by the fierce rhythm of the battle and the pleasing moves of the two, all of them flushed red and cheered to their hearts' content.

It kind of pushed the match to a climax.

"Go Goku, go Chi-Chi." Bulma cheered loudly from the stage.

"These two children are getting better and better, but relatively speaking Goku is a little more powerful." Master Roshi was in a very happy mood, no matter which of them won, it was his Turtle Schoos's disciple who advanced.

"Brother, who do you think will win." Amelia floated in mid-air, her cunning gaze looked at Muqiu.

At this moment, Muqiu dragged Lazuli's body with his strength, took a look at the match and said, "Brother Goku did not use his full strength, he will be able to win immediately if he fights with his full strength."

"I think so too."

Lazuli and Lapis couldn't see the battle of the match, both eyes had become mosquito-like, "Your eyesight is so good, I can't see at all."

"Don't worry, Mama April said you guys will be great in the future, she has seen your future." Dragging up Lazuli's body, Muqiu whispered to her. Lazuli smiled happily, "Really, how do I look like in the future?"

Muqiuthought for a moment, "Not sure, anyway, mama April said to strengthen your education, and then let you become stronger when appropriate."

Lazuli barred her mouth for a moment, "Then I wonder when we have to wait." Then attracted by a sudden burst of cheers in the venue, re-looked at the ring when, somehow Son Goku and Chi-Chi have been divided into winners and losers, so that the top four players of the Martial Arts Tournament had been produced.

Piccolo, Tien Shinhan, Yajirobe, Son Goku..

"You are my second obstacle."

Piccolo's cold gaze fell on Tien Shinha. Piccolo coldly snorted, in the face of Piccolo's aggressive provocation, Tien Shinha returned the favor and looked at him with the same cold face.

"DONG!" The sound of a yellow bell resounded in the venue.

The curtain of the semi-final match was raised, and it was Piccolo and Tien Shinha who walked onto the field, and the identities of the two were once again reintroduced in the very passionate pronouncement of the blond host.

Because of this world, Demon King Piccolo was killed by Son Goku and others when he did not cause harm to the world, so even when the host announced the identity of Piccolo, in addition to causing a burst of cheers in the venue, it did not make people fear.

This taught Piccolo a lot of dissatisfaction, how could the district people heard his name, not only did not fear but also cheered?

He was determined to change this state of affairs.
