I Feel Like They're All So Weak

"So why did you bring me here? Is there something going on?" Launch snapped back to reality when she saw Broly heading over to the lounge chair to sleep, and asked Krillin.

"Nothing major, I just want you to stay here for a while." Krillin laughed.

"No problem! I was hoping to stay." Launch blushed again, sneaking a glance at Broly.

Krillin wiped his sweat silently.

"Also, I'm being chased." Launch smiled.

"Chased? Were those cops after you?" Krillin was taken aback. "Aren't they the bad guys?"

"They're real cops." Launch nodded.

"Huh?" Krillin didn't quite follow. "Why are the cops after you?"

"See all this cash? I've robbed banks and hijacked trains." Launch lowered her voice, speaking softly, afraid Broly might overhear and think she was a bad girl.

"You've got to be kidding. You don't seem like the type." Krillin chuckled awkwardly. "You're some kind of rich girl, right?"

"You'd better be careful. When I sneeze, my whole personality changes." Launch explained.

"Beautiful!" Master Roshi suddenly appeared, ecstatic beyond words.

Launch was startled.

Then Master Roshi turned to Son Goku and Krillin, praising them nonstop: "You two did great!"

"Is that enough?" Goku asked.

"Heh heh... How about it? Figure and face, pretty good, right? Definitely over 97 points!" Krillin whispered in Master Roshi's ear.

"Mmm hmm." Master Roshi nodded vigorously. "Alright, I agree to take you both on!"

Goku and Krillin jumped for joy.

"Welcome, welcome..." Master Roshi stepped forward to greet Launch.

And so, Launch settled into Master Roshi's house.

Goku and Krillin officially began their training.

But unlike before, Launch had her own little agenda.

Partly to dodge the police.

Partly to pursue Broly.

During Goku and Krillin's training, Launch went out of her way to prepare all kinds of delicious food for Broly.

Before, the food Broly ate was mostly pre-made meals Master Roshi brought in.

When had Broly ever tasted freshly cooked food?

After one bite, Broly immediately felt like he was experiencing the finest cuisine on earth.

"This... this is a dumpling?" Broly pointed at the dumpling he was eating, amazed at how good it was.

"Huh? You've never had one?" Launch asked curiously.

"I have, but like this." Broly pulled a bag of dumplings from the fridge.

"Those are frozen. How could they compare to freshly wrapped ones?" Launch smiled gently.

"Yeah." Broly wolfed them down.

Launch had wrapped over 500 dumplings.

Originally, she'd counted Goku and the others in that number.

But Broly ate them all by himself.

From that day on, Launch never wanted to wrap dumplings again.

Mainly because Broly ate too fast.

Wrapping 500 dumplings by yourself was exhausting.

"Hey Broly, aren't you going to train?" Launch asked casually. "If you train with Master Roshi, you might become the best in the world. I heard Goku and Krillin are both entering the World Martial Arts Tournament."

"No, I'm not interested in training." Broly shook his head firmly.

"Is that so? That's fine! Anyway, you're Master Roshi's grandson, he'll protect you, hehehe..." Launch giggled.

"But I think the old man's pretty weak." Broly scratched his head, muttering under his breath.

"Huh? What?" Launch blinked, not catching it clearly.

"The old man's no good. If he really fought me, he might not even win." Broly grinned naively.

"What? He's the God of Martial Arts... Don't ever think like that." Launch quickly tried to persuade him gently. "Or you might get beaten up."

"Uh..." Broly looked at Launch.

"Master Roshi seems ordinary on the surface, but he's actually really strong. He just hasn't shown you his real power." Launch glanced out the window, then lowered her voice. "Never mind, he's back."

Sure enough, Master Roshi returned from outside.

But when he saw Broly and Launch chatting and laughing together, the old man's face instantly darkened.

I told Goku and Krillin to find me a pretty, cute girl.

And sure enough, that pretty, cute girl came back and moved in here.

But she ended up being taken by that brat Broly.

I must have owed him in a past life.

He's stolen my girlfriend!

"Launch, is dinner ready?" Master Roshi asked.

"Ah... I'm working on it, sorry about that." Launch quickly stood up and smiled apologetically.

"Why do I smell dumplings?" Master Roshi sniffed the air, searching around the room.

"Broly was hungry, so I gave him some frozen dumplings," Launch explained.

"You brat, all you do is eat! Besides eating, it's just sleeping!" Master Roshi glared at Broly in annoyance.

Broly just grinned back, not getting angry.

"Then I'll trouble you, Launch. Make plenty of food—Goku and Krillin had a hard training session today," Master Roshi said politely.

"Ah-choo!"

But just as Master Roshi finished speaking, Launch sneezed.

Master Roshi's face changed color, and he rushed out of the room as fast as he could to find a place to hide.

In an instant, Launch turned into a blonde-haired beauty, her gaze turning fierce and wild.

Launch immediately glared viciously at Broly.

Broly wasn't afraid at all, staring right back at her without blinking.

The two locked eyes for a brief moment.

"You know, I suddenly think this look suits you way better than that dark blue hair," Broly mused.

"Of course! I'm way hotter than that weak woman!" Launch planted her hands on her slender waist and grinned smugly.

"Mm." Broly nodded.

"Hey, you promised me a date last time!" Launch snorted, stepped forward, grabbed Broly by the collar, and pressed her face close. "You'd better keep your word!"

"You're too close..." Broly scratched his head.

"I like fresh meat like you! Come on!" Launch said, yanking Broly by the collar and dragging him toward the room.

Broly: "..."

Outside, Master Roshi saw this and his face filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

That kid really doesn't know how good he has it.

A girl this forward...

If it were me, I'd be thrilled!

But just as Launch was boldly dragging Broly into the room—

"Ah-choo!"

Launch sneezed, and her hair turned back to dark blue.

"Huh? I didn't do anything too crazy, did I?" Launch looked at Broly sheepishly, quickly letting go of his collar, her face turning bright red.

"N-no... nothing..." Broly gave an awkward smile.
