Goku's Promise

"What!? Is he crazy! It's just a touch, why would he risk his life?" Master Roshi said in amazement.

"It's your fault Kalan rushed into the flames! Go save him!!" Bulma shouted with tears in her eyes while she grabbed the old mans collar hard and shook him.

"Wa-wa-wa! Calm down! He's fine, somehow he's not hurt by the flames at all..." The old man muttered as he concentrated hard and looked into the flames.

"Is Kalan really fine? Old man, you can see through the flames?" Goku asked curiously.

"Yes, he is completely fine and moving deeper into the castle... I can't see through the flames, but as the strongest martial artist alive. I can clearly sense him and he has not gotten any weaker even after staying inside those hot flames for so many minutes." Master Roshi even had time to brag about himself.

A few minutes later, Kalan came out completely fine. His hair and clothes were in good shapes. Not even the slightest soot could be seen on him. He had naturally created a Ki barrier to keep him clean. The clothes he has on him were made of high quality by the system. So he was not worried it would get burnt by such measly ordinary flames. The Ki barrier was just to keep him clean from the ashes in the flames.

"Kalan you're fine!" Bulma hugged Kalan.

"Calm down, Bulma I'm fine." Kalan was shocked by Bulma's actions and lightly patted her back.

"I got the dragon ball." Kalan said and gave the dragon ball to Bulma.

"Amazing! Turtle Hermit old man, you were right!" Goku exclaimed.

"Of course I am!" The old man said smugly.

"How were you able to withstand those hot flames for so long?" Oolong asked unbelievingly.

"Hm... Because I'm strong?" Kalan thought for a bit and answered honestly.

"That doesn't explain anything..." Oolong muttered.

Master Roshi looked seriously at Kalan for awhile and said "Boy do you want to train under me? I will make you into the strongest martial artist in the world!"

"Nah, I've already learned everything you got anyways. Bleeeh" Kalan rejected and pulled down his right eyelid with a finger, stuck out his tongue and childishly taunted.

"Besides, I've already founded my own dojo." Kalan said proudly.

"Eh? You have your own dojo? What's it called?" Bulma asked curiously.

"It's called Kalan's dojo." Kalan said thick skinnedly.

"..." The group looked speechlessly at Kalan.

"I've never heard of it though..." Master Roshi muttered.

"That's natural, I founded it just 2 years ago. Although I advertised it once when I won the WMA tournament a few years ago. It's still not that well known." Kalan said.

"Ah? You're last WMA tournament's champion? No wonder you were strong enough to withstand the flames. But boy, don't think that you stand at the peak simply by winning once! I'll show you the true might of my Kamehameha. Last time it was just a simple one. I'll be serious now." Master Roshi said seriously like he was lecturing Kalan.

"Pervert, now you're willing to extinguish the flames?" Bulma said annoyed.

"Well, now I have nothing I can use to force you to let me touch your breasts... I can't just leave my student after learning of his situation after all, what would happen to my reputation?" The old man said shamelessly.

"Like you ever had something called 'reputation'!" Bulma said and ground her teeth in anger upon learning that the perverted old man would have extinguished the flames either way and was actually being scammed into letting this pervert touch her breasts.

Master Roshi showed his Kamehameha and destroyed the whole mountain including the castle on top. He did extinguish the flames though.

"See? This the true might of my amazing Kamehameha." Master Roshi said smugly.

"I don't care." Kalan said dismissively.

"You're to arrogant! You won't be able to win the next WMA tournament! You will soon learn that there is always a mountain above a mountain!" Master Roshi lectured.

"Fine, we'll see on the next WMA tournament." Kalan decided to participate in the WMA tournament.

"Old man! Teach me that Kamehameha! It was amazing!" Goku asked excitedly.

"That's impossible, it takes at least 50 years to grasp the art of Kamehameha..." Master Roshi explained.

Goku unreconciled, tried out the Kamehameha on his own on their motorhome. He managed to fire a weak kamehameha, and destroyed their motorhome. Ox King praised him as Grandpa Gohan's grandson. Master Roshi was also pleasantly surprised to find out that Goku was his student's grandson. He happily invited Goku to study under him. He couldn't get Kalan, but he saw Goku as someone equally talented to be able to grasp the Kamehameha on his first try and happily left.

"Well I'm too lazy to actually teach... And Nam's experiences is way below the perverted old man." Kalan thought of recruiting Goku, but gave up the idea.

"Gaaah!! Goku why did you destroy our motorhome!?!" Bulma shouted.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Bulma. I didn't think that far..." Goku honestly apologized.

"Aaah! My shower! My soft bed!!" Bulma cried out.

"There she goes again..." Kalan shook his head.

"If you need a car I got one. You can take mine." Ox King generously offered his car capsule.

"Thank you!" Bulma thanked. The car was quite old and a bit too small to fit them all. Since Goku destroyed their motorhome, he would ride on his cloud so that the other 3 could fit in the car.

"Once we get a little older, will you come take me as your bride?" Chi Chi came forward and asked Goku shyly.

"Eh? Take what...?" Goku asked curiously.

"Come on! You know what I mean." Chi Chi said shyly.

"Not really... If you're gonna give me something, I'll come take it, though." Goku said with a straight face. Bulma and Oolong was checking out their car so they did not notice the conversation.

"Pfft." Kalan laughed in the distance. He knew the reason Chi Chi asked, it was all caused by Goku's pat pat!

The group bid goodbye and left.
