Foreshadowing the Journey

Waves, beach, sunshine.

Seaside villa.

Roland's wedding was held in a very low-key manner. The guests were mostly close relatives of Dr. Brief' family or some of Tights's work friends. The bride and groom dressed up in their suits, went through the motions in front of everyone, held a banquet, and that was it for the wedding.

During the banquet, Dr. Brief entertained the wedding guests. Roland led Tights to a table. Tights wore a white wedding dress that accentuated her slender figure. She wore light makeup and looked as serene and elegant as a water lily, in the prime of her youth.

"Tights married now and has her own family. I wonder if Mom will be able to find a handsome guy to date."

Mrs. Brief looked at Tights with envy and said something absurd.

"Mom, be serious. You're not a child anymore." Tights rolled her eyes. Compared to Mrs. Brief, Tights was perfectly normal now.

"But Mother is still very young," Mrs. Brief proudly, touching her cheek.

The women of the Briefs family seemed to defy aging; the passage of time appeared to leave no lasting mark on them. Tights stood next to Mrs. Brief, if it weren't for the difference in their demeanor, one would never have guessed that they were mother and daughter.

"The Vine Race Maiden on Planet Vine are quite nice. Send me a few later." Dr. Brief walked over, showing that he was still young at heart despite his age.

"You two... are hopeless." Tights felt a sense of helplessness regarding her parents' personalities. Although she knew they were joking, they were just too carefree.

Roland laughed heartily, "It's precisely because of these personalities that you two have been able to maintain your youthful vitality." Sephiria glanced at Dr. and Mrs. Dr. Brief, continued eating her food, wiped her mouth, and said, "If you have time, you can always travel to Planet Vine."

"That's a good idea." Dr. Brief' eyes lit up. As a frequent traveler to Earth, he knew that after the expansion of trade on Planet Vine, there were many strange and unusual goods.

"What kind of place is Planet Vine? Brother-in-law Luo... to be honest, I still don't know what you guys do." Bulma opened her blue-violet eyes. Having known Roland for so long, she still didn't know what his family did. She'd heard it was related to her family's business, but what exactly did they do?

Roland used to look like a child and not very noticeable, but he is quite handsome as an adult. No wonder he could charm her older sister, Bulma, who reluctantly called Roland her brother-in-law.

Roland smiled mysteriously, "It's just a small territory with some subordinates, managing a trading group called Planet Vine."

"Oh, so you're in the trading business!"

"You can understand it that way," Roland said without further explanation.

Bulma nodded, thinking to herself that Roland must be a lord of some region. Although Earth is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Earth Kingdom, it is scattered and each region has its own ruler, just like the Red Ribbon Army. These regional rulers are like local tyrants who don't care about the rule of the Earth Kingdom at all.

Is there a group on Earth called "Planet Vine"?

After thinking for a while, Bulma couldn't remember anything, so she stopped thinking about it. It was probably just a small group, definitely not as big as her family's Capsule Corp.

"By the way, if you have your own territory, could you help me find something..." Bulma suddenly remembered something, rummaged through her small pouch, and took out a fist-sized orange-red bead with two red stars inside.

Dragon Ball!

Upon seeing this, a glint flashed in Roland's eyes.

Upon seeing the Dragon Ball, Launch slightly opened her mouth in surprise, but Launch blue-haired form remained calm and did not utter a sound.

"This is a Two-Star Dragon Ball," Roland said.

"You recognize it too, so there are seven of them. Legend has it that if you collect all seven Dragon Ball, you can summon Shenron. Can you help me collect them?" Bulma's excitement rose as she saw that Roland recognized the Dragon Ball in her hand.

"You believe in such legends?" Roland asked rhetorically.

Bulma said, "I've done a lot of research. It's said that someone once collected the Dragon Ball and even used Dragon Ball to wish for becoming king."

"Bulma, what wish do you want to make when you find the Dragon Ball?" Tights stopped him before Roland could answer, asking Bulma with a serious expression.

"I want a prince on a white horse!"

Tights gave a knowing look; her sister was such a hopeless romantic. She said seriously, "If it's such an absurd wish, you should go find it yourself. Maybe you can fulfill your wish on your journey."

"Sister, do you not believe in the legend of the Dragon Ball?"

"This legend is true," Tights affirmed. Actually, a long time ago, when Roland first went home with Tights to ask Dr. Brief to build the Dragon Radar, Bulma was also present, but she was too young at the time and had forgotten what happened then.

"Then why won't you help me find it!"

"Your wish is absurd. If it were about taking risks, I wouldn't stop you." Tights shook her head. She had gone with Roland to find the Dragon Ball because she wanted to experience the process of finding Dragon Ball; she didn't agree with Bulma's motives.

"..."

Bulma opened her mouth, knowing her wish was unlikely to be granted, and could only give up the idea of asking for help with a dejected expression. She thought to herself, "Anyway, my Dragon Radar is finished. I must collect the Dragon Ball during summer vacation."

Tights was unaware that Bulma had already made up her mind, but Roland gave Bulma a meaningful look, a hint of expectation flashing in his deep eyes.

His gaze swept across Launch Tights's faces, knowing that Bulma hadn't given up on her idea. In a few months, she would still embark on her journey to find the Dragon Ball. However, because of his intervention, the fates of many people had already changed!

For example, Chi-Chi from Mount Liangjing is still cultivating on the Korin Tower!

"The show is about to begin." Roland smiled. He had been in the Dragon Ball world for over ten years, and witnessing Bulma and Goku meet in person would be quite memorable.

Sephiria's clear, lake-like eyes looked at Roland, her delicate eyebrows slightly raised. "Did you foresee something?" She still believed in Roland's precognitive abilities.

"Remember when I told you about Super Saiyan Kakarot? His journey is about to begin."

Sephiria's eyes flashed, and she looked at Bulma thoughtfully, nodding slightly.

Roland's wedding ended quickly, the guests left, and only Roland and a few others remained in the seaside villa. After sending Launch back to Korin Tower to cultivate, Roland lived a shameless life with Sephiria and Tights until a few weeks later, when the group returned to the Planet Sadala.

Also traveling with them was their disciple, Launch. In order to be allowed to go along, the Blonde Launch pleaded and begged for a long time, finally persuading Sephiria to agree to let her accompany them.
