Chapter Summaries

Uchiha Hiko prepared a formal outfit for Ms. Morita and then proposed adding marriage vows to the wedding. He left Master Roshi considering a public promise of devotion to Ms. Morita, while secretly intending to use the vows to control him.

• Master Roshi questioned how Uchiha Hiko had prepared an outfit for Ms. Morita so quickly, then opened the box and admired its contents.
• Master Roshi said he would show the outfit to Ms. Morita and let her decide whether to wear it.
• Uchiha Hiko explained that the wedding’s next important step was for Master Roshi and Ms. Morita to make vows.
• Master Roshi questioned why they needed vows when he expected the wedding to end with traditional bows to Heaven and Earth.
• Uchiha Hiko suggested that Master Roshi publicly promise his devotion to Ms. Morita in front of the guests and witnesses.

Uchiha Hiko coached Master Roshi on swearing an oath to win Ms. Morita’s heart, but Master Roshi worried about promising lifelong fidelity. Hiko reassured him that the oath was only words for others to hear, leaving Master Roshi relaxed.

• Master Roshi praised Uchiha Hiko’s romantic insight and asked him what oath would move Ms. Morita.
• Uchiha Hiko asked Master Roshi to trust him and dictated an oath to love Ms. Morita wholeheartedly and never marry again.
• Master Roshi questioned whether marriage meant he could never like anyone else, then clarified he was only curious about whether the oath had any effect.
• Uchiha Hiko said the oath was merely something said for outsiders and would eventually be recognized as empty words.
• Master Roshi relaxed after hearing Uchiha Hiko dismiss the oath as having no real effect.

Uchiha Hiko persuaded Master Roshi to make a vow of loyalty to Ms. Morita at the wedding, then hinted that he might ask Master Roshi for help. Master Roshi agreed readily but remained wary, while privately taking Uchiha Hiko's apparent nervousness as a sign that he was inexperienced.

• Master Roshi insisted that Ms. Morita mattered more to him than anything and said he was not afraid of making an oath.

• Uchiha Hiko asked Master Roshi to help him in return, while saying Master Roshi could refuse without feeling indebted.
• Master Roshi agreed to do whatever he could, but stayed suspicious of Uchiha Hiko and privately interpreted his crumpled wedding plans and trembling as signs of inexperience.

Uchiha Hiko used a request for help and an offer of protection to win Master Roshi’s trust and persuade him to stay on his territory. He then asked Master Roshi what Bulma’s two Dragon Balls were for and what they should do next.

• Uchiha Hiko asked Master Roshi to explain the purpose of Bulma’s two Dragon Balls and what they should do next.
