The Champion Is Destined To Be Mine!

The fourth match was between Kami, disguised as Mr. Shen, and Yamcha.

The outcome of this match was never in doubt.

Although Kami suppressed most of his strength, his power was far beyond Yamcha's.

Yamcha was suppressed for almost the entire match. All his moves and attacks were easily seen through and neutralized by Kami. In the end, he was pushed out of the ring by a seemingly light palm strike that actually contained a clever force, losing cleanly and even somewhat embarrassingly.

Seeing that this unknown Mr. Shen possessed such unfathomable strength, Master Roshi was quite shocked, his hands trembling as he adjusted his glasses.

This World Martial Arts Tournament... is truly full of hidden talents!

What kind of monsters are participating?

Each one is more powerful than the last!

Good thing I didn't compete.

After winning, Kami didn't leave the stage immediately. Instead, his gaze pierced through the crowd and landed deeply on Broly, who was still engrossed in eating in the audience seats.

However, seeing that the food packaging bags in front of Broly had increased, switching from chicken legs to potato chips, and now to beef jerky, eating them back and forth.

It was as if his stomach was a bottomless pit.

Kami felt a wave of speechlessness, and dark lines seemed to hang from his forehead.

This kid... he can really eat!

His mouth hasn't stopped since the match began!

How ironic...

King Piccolo, who almost destroyed the world back then, was defeated by this kid who only ate and slept!

Who would believe this if it were told?

"After the intense and thrilling battles of the previous rounds, we have finally determined the top four contestants of this tournament!" the Referee's passionate voice echoed throughout the venue once again, pushing the atmosphere to a new climax. "Next, we will have even more brutal and exciting semifinals! The four contestants who have reached the semifinals are: last year's champion, Tien Shinhan! Last year's runner-up, Son Goku! The mysterious and powerful Maginia! And the equally unfathomable Mr. Shen! These four are undoubtedly the undisputed top masters and supremely powerful martial artists in the world today! I must say, the level of this tournament and the strength of the participating contestants are truly unbelievable!"

"Just as the Referee said," Master Roshi said, looking at the four contestants about to compete on the stage. His aged face was filled with emotion as he stroked his beard and gave his authoritative assessment, "The strength they have shown truly qualifies them as the four strongest people in this world right now! Truly, the younger generation is formidable!"

"Have they... surpassed Broly now?" Bulma asked softly, listening to Master Roshi's evaluation and then glancing at Broly beside her, who was out of place with the image of a peerless master.

"Perhaps not before, after all, three years ago Broly could easily deal with King Piccolo," Master Roshi sighed, a look of regret and uncertainty on his face. He pondered, "But this kid Broly... he really hasn't trained at all for the past three years! Every day, without fail, he just eats and sleeps, and now he's added playing video games to his hobbies. The path of martial arts is like sailing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall back! With this ebb and flow... Tien Shinhan and Goku have improved rapidly, while Broly has stagnated or even regressed... Now, he has probably truly been surpassed?"

"Oh? You're not wrong!" Bulma looked at Master Roshi with some surprise and chuckled, "You old pervert, when you're serious occasionally, what you say actually has some philosophy to it!"

"Naturally!" Upon hearing the praise, Master Roshi immediately reverted to his old self, chuckled, leaned closer to Bulma, rubbed his hands, and revealed a lewd, mischievous smile, almost drooling. "Actually, what I say at night has even more philosophy and contains the true meaning of life! How about... we find a quiet place tonight and have a good chat, delving deep into the mysteries of life and existence?"

"Bang!"

Bulma delivered a swift uppercut without holding back!

Her fist landed squarely on Master Roshi's chin, lifting him off his feet and sending him tumbling backward to the ground with a pained groan.

"Ouch... you savage girl... so unladylike..." Master Roshi clutched his rapidly swelling chin, groaning in pain, tears almost streaming from his eyes.

"Why was exploring life beaten up?" Broly scratched his head in confusion, watching the scene unfold, his clear eyes filled with genuine bewilderment.

Broly truly couldn't understand why Master Roshi's seemingly scholarly invitation had resulted in such a violent response.

Hearing Broly's innocent question, Bulma's pretty face instantly flushed red, like a ripe tomato. She glared fiercely at Master Roshi, who was groaning on the ground, and didn't want to say anything, finding it both infuriating and amusing.

Fortunately... this blockhead Broly hasn't learned any bad habits from that old turtle...

But then again, Bulma felt a bit speechless.

Well, even if he hasn't learned bad habits... hasn't he learned anything at all?

Otherwise, after spending so much time with Launch, how could he be so ignorant about the most basic aspects of male-female relationships?

Such a pure boy... as pure as a blank sheet of paper!

Bulma couldn't help but think of Son Goku and Chi-Chi, who had just gotten married.

Goku and that girl Chi-Chi also got married because of a childhood promise...

Could it be that they, like Broly, don't know anything either?

Bulma's thoughts drifted, getting carried away, and a strange expression appeared on her face.

"The first match of the semifinals is about to begin!" the Referee's voice pulled Bulma back from her wandering thoughts. "It's Tien Shinhan versus Son Goku! These two contestants had an intense battle in the finals of the last tournament, with Tien Shinhan ultimately winning by a narrow margin! Three years later, these two powerhouses meet again on the stage. What kind of sparks will fly in this year's tournament? Let's wait and see!"

The next moment, Son Goku and Tien Shinhan shot out from the backstage passage like two arrows released from a bow, drawing two beautiful arcs in the air before landing precisely and lightly at opposite ends of the ring.

They exchanged smiles, then each assumed their familiar fighting stances, causing the atmosphere of the entire venue to tense up.

After a brief exchange of glances, Son Goku and Tien Shinhan wasted no words. Their bodies moved simultaneously, colliding like two shooting stars and engaging in an incredibly fierce battle!

The sounds of fists and feet colliding were like a dense drumbeat. Their figures flickered and dodged, moving so fast it was dazzling. Energy waves scattered, blowing the ropes at the edge of the ring with a humming sound.

Seeing the astonishing strength, terrifying speed, and surging power that Son Goku displayed in the fight, Piccolo, who had been watching coldly with his arms crossed below the stage, couldn't help but see a flicker of surprise and solemnity in his eyes.

This guy named Son Goku...

Is indeed not simple!

His strength far surpasses that bald kid from earlier.

It seems highly likely that I will face this kid in the finals to compete for the championship.

However, he is definitely no match for me!

How can the power of King Piccolo be comparable to these mortals?

The championship is destined to be mine!
