{King Kai's Planet}

Bubbles, Gregory and I were playing Monkey in the middle. Meanwhile, King Kai was standing in the middle of my portable personal kitchen, fidgeting impatiently while looking at a timer clock.

"Here, Gregory, catch," I yelled as I threw a ball toward him.

"Ahahaha, I got it," Gregory laughed as he caught the ball.

"You want this? Bubbles," Gregory teased Bubbles by showing him the ball.

Gregory then put forward his hands, gesturing for Bubbles to take the ball from his hands. Bubbles carefully came near him and quickly tried to snatch the ball from Gregory's hands, but Gregory retrieved his hands backwards and tossed the ball toward me.

"Gaah, Gaaah, Huaaaa," Bubbles screeched angrily.

"Hehe, Bubbles calm down, we are just playing a game," I chuckled.

"Hey, Arlic, the timer is almost done," King Kai called me.

"Coming," I replied, and then looked toward Bubbles and Gregory, "You guy continue playing, I'll go finish the lunch,"

"Huu, Huu," Bubbles hopped excitedly.

I threw the ball toward Gregory and walked toward my kitchen.

"Lord Kai, I am here," I notified him.

"Arlic, only 2 minutes are left on the timer," King Kai said impatiently.

"How long are you going to make me wait for lunch? it's already half an hour past lunchtime," King Kai complained.

"Lord Kai, this is the fastest way to cook a brisket, and we are still not done, just be patient for 15 more minutes," I tried to calm him.

"Aghh, I am already losing patience because of the aroma," King Kai said impatiently.

"Then, take out the fries from that bowl and rinse them in cold water, then dry them using that cloth," I instructed him to divert his mind.

After the timer was done, I opened the pressure cooker and took out the brisket from it using Telekinesis, then placed it on the side to let it cool.

"Arlic, I am done," King Kai reported.

"Oh, great," I nodded happily.

"Hehe, this is nothing for me, I have experience of hundreds of thousands of years of cooking," King Kai boasted with a high chin.

"Hehe, I can see that," I chuckled, "Now, coat them with that mixture of cornstarch and rice flour, then fry them in that fryer until they get golden," I instructed him again.

After instructing King Kai, I started preparing the rest of the ingredients.

After 5 minutes, the brisket was ready to shred. I put it inside a big bowl and started shredding it with Telekinesis.

After shredding it, I added the secret sauce to increase its taste.

"Arlic, I am done frying these fries," King Kai informed me.

"Great, let the excess oil drip back into the fryer, then place them in a bowl and sprinkle those seasonings on it," I instructed him.

"Bubbles, Gregory, go and wash your hands, lunch is almost ready," I instructed them.

I quickly sauteed shredded brisket in the pan and then divided it among 12 crispy golden base buns, then poured a small amount of secret sauce on it. After that, I placed cheese slices on top of the brisket, and then melted them using a magical flame. Then placed some freshly made Coleslaw on top of them, and completed the burgers by placing crispy golden top buns on them.

After the brisket burgers were ready, I placed skewers in them to hold them in place. I then placed three Burgers on each plate along with some fries on the side with yoghurt dipping sauce.

"Okay, guys, the food is really," I said in a happy tone as I turned around.

"Yaaay/Huuuuuu," King Kai and Gregory yelled happily, and Bubbles gibbered excitedly.

I placed the food in front of everyone and then sat down at the table to eat mine.

"Aaaaah, so tasty," King Kai let out a satisfied moan after taking a bite from the Burger.

"It's delicious, isn't it?" I asked them and started eating my burgers.

"Mnnn, Iz baery tezthy," Gregory said with a stuffed mouth.

"Speak after you swallow, Gregory," I said while shaking my head.

"Lord Kai, I wanted to ask you something?" I said to King Kai.

"Yeah, sure, ask away," King Kai said and ate a fist full of fries in one go.

"Uhh… I wanted to ask you about the techniques you can teach me?" I inquired.

"I can teach you many techniques, such as Healing, Hypnosis, Kaio-ken, Spirit Bomb, Instant Transmission, etc," King Kai answered.

"Oh, great," I was excited after hearing that he can even teach me instant transmission.

"Hmm, but, I am not sure if you can learn Kaio-ken or not," King Kai said with doubt.

"Huh, why?" I asked, confused.

"Mastering Kaio-ken requires two things, a Strong Body and proper Ki control, it's a good thing that you have both," King Kai clarified.

"However, your Ki is chaotic, so it can go out of control and cause problems when you activate the Kaio-ken,"

"Kaio-ken is a technique that works by multiplying the user's Ki, and this newly multiplied Ki might sound sweet, but it's a double edge sword, so, if a person doesn't have a strong body or good Ki control, they couldn't even survive a second after activating the technique, and even if you do possess these requirements, Kaio-ken takes a huge toll on the user's body," King Kai explained.

"I see, so it's like that, but still, I want to learn how to use it, maybe I can modify it by adding magic to it," I said after a thought.

"Magic? You want to add magic to a Ki-based technique, why?" King Kai asked, confused.

"Yup, I do," I said with a grin, "As you already know that my Ki is chaotic, and keeping it under control using a normal Ki control method is quite difficult, thus, I use magic to help me keep my Ki under control,"

"So, if I add magic to Kaio-ken in a similar way I use it to control my Ki, it might work," I described my plan.

"Hmm, an interesting theory, adding magic to stabilise the violent flow of Ki," King Kai said while nodding.

"So, how do you use magic to stabilise your Ki?" King Kai asked.

"Lord Kai, do you know what pipes are?" I asked with a smile.

"Yeah, I know, they are hollow cylindrical bodies used to move substances from one end to the other, but how would a pipe help in this situation?" King Kai answered.

"I use the concept of a pipe to direct my Ki in a controlled manner, this helps me to keep its violent flow under control,"

"It took me a long time to perfect this technique, and now I can suppress my Ki to the point where you can't even sense it," I explained.

"YES, this might work, it can also somewhat stabilise Kaio-ken and this way the burden on the user's body will also decrease," King Kai said excitedly.

"But, Arlic, this means you will have to increase the amount of magic you use with each multiplier, you won't be able to use it after you run out of magic," King Kai asked with concern.

"Hehe, worry not, with my infinite amount of magic, I can do it all day," I replied with a chuckle.

"In… In… Infinite Magic!" King Kai exclaimed in shock.

"You… You…, hah, Kami was right, you are indeed a cheat character," King Kai said dejectedly.

"Cheer up Lord Kai, enjoy the delicious lunch while it's still hot," I tried to cheer him up.

"Sniff… Yes, in this unfair and unjust world this tasty food is the only thing I can depend on," King Kai said while taking a bite from the Burger with a gloomy face.

{5 Minutes Later}

"Hey, can you tell me more about your cheat abilities?" King Kai asked me.

"Are you sure you want to know about them?" I asked with concern.

"Yes, I am ready now, I want to know about them," King Kai said with determination.

"Okay, so here you go," I said and took a deep breath, "Infinite Ki, Magic, Stamina, and Regeneration, Near Indestructible Body, Magic Resistance, Mimicry,"

.

{A/N:- He said infinite but in truth it isn't, it's near infinite, but because he hasn't reached the limit for his regeneration to struggle he currently calls it infinite,}

.

King Kai stared at me with a bewildered expression, and then quickly turned toward Gregory and said while forcing a smile, "Isn't it a beautiful day today, Gregory?"

"Ah… Yes, it's a wonderful day, Master," Gregory replied, confused.

"Lord Kai…" I tried to say something.

"Hahaha, Bubbles, did you like the lunch?" King Kai asked Bubbles, clearly ignoring me.

"Huuu, Huuu," Bubbles nodded while gibbering happily.

"Lord Kai…" I tried again.

"Ehehe, Arlic, how about we start our training after lunch?" King Kai said trying to divert the topic, "We will start with Ki and Magic control, let's see if we can improve them,"

"Okay, Lord Kai," I nodded, confused.

{1 Week Later}

{A/N:- Here's something that everyone wanted to happen, so, Shenron appeared and granted your wish,}

[Hey, Bulma, how have you been?] I asked Bulma through Telepathy.

[Arlic, we just conversed yesterday, so why are you talking like we haven't spoken in months?] Bulma replied, irritated.

[Hehe, yeah right, by the way, you sound annoyed, are you okay? Or is it that time of the month already?] I asked and snickered.

[What?! No, you idiot, it's nothing like that, I am just annoyed at Yamcha,] Bulma replied angrily.

[Hmm, did that idiot do something again?] I inquired.

[Well, I broke up with him today,] Bulma said with a shrug.

[Oh, really? but everything was fine for the last 2 months, what happened in a week that you decided to break up with him?] I asked her curiously.

[Even though he is my type, he's too irritating, and I just don't want to talk about how annoyingly dumb he is,] Bulma answered.

[I didn't bother with these things in the beginning because he was new in our family, and because you were there, I was receiving my daily dose of entertainment, but after you left, that idiot is just doing nothing but annoying me,] Bulma explained.

[I see, so, this is why you broke up with him,] I repeated with a nod.

[Uhh, no, the reason for the breakup is something else,] Bulma confessed, [You see, ever since he joined the school baseball team, that b#stard got famous in the school, and because of that a lot of girls started approaching him,]

[And that A#shole, instead of rejecting their advances, he started flirting with them, and he's been doing this for a month, I tried to ignore it in the beginning, thinking he would stop at some point, but that B#stard never did, so I just broke up with him,] Bulma explained, furiously.

[Huh, that stupid did have some backbone to flirt with other girls behind your back,] I said while shaking my head.

[Hey, want me to ask Master Kami to throw a bolt or two at him?] I asked her with a chuckle.

[Hehe, no, you don't have to do anything, he has already received an appropriate punishment,] Bulma replied with an evil smirk.

[Oh, now I am curious, what did you do?] I inquired curiously.

[Ehehe, you remember that PiPi candy I made some time ago,] Bulma replied with an evil grin.

[Ohh, no you didn't,] I chuckled as I remembered her evil invention 'The PiPi Candy'.

[Oh, Yes, I did, and I even added two extra features to it, first, a tracker so he can't run off to somewhere, and second for the candy to activate the moment a girl touches him,] Bulma replied with an evil toothy grin.

Hearing her I started laughing at the fate of poor Yamcha, [Haha, poor guy, he messed with the wrong girl,]

[Yup, that he did,] Bulma nodded with a chuckle.

[I gotta give it to you Bulma, you handled this quite maturely, I am impressed, the Bulma from before wouldn't have done anything like this,] I said with a smile.

[Well, what can I say, I have changed a lot because of the influence of an old gramps,] Bulma replied with a chuckle.

[Shut it, brat,] I said while shaking my head.

[Sure, Pentz,] Bulma said with a cheeky smile.

[Agh, not again,] I sighed as I heard Bulma laughing in my head.
