After spending three days at the Ox-King's castle, Zhou Zilong and his group set off on their journey once more, heading toward the unknown distance to search for the seventh mysterious Dragon Ball.

Before leaving, Zhou Zilong exchanged a storage device disguised as a pendant from Xiao Ling's System Mall. He went to the Ox-King's room, handed the pendant over, and explained, "Senior Brother, this is a piece of high-tech equipment I found during my training. Although it looks like a mere pendant, it contains a vast storage space inside. You can keep your precious items in it; it is both convenient and secure!"

Zhou Zilong did this because he knew the castle where the Ox-King lived had a fated connection to fire. In a few years' time, a great blaze would descend, destroying many of the valuables within the castle, which led to the once-wealthy Ox-King suffering a significant loss of assets.

Zhou Zilong wanted to test whether, if the Ox-King's wealth remained intact, Chi-Chi would still constantly pressure Goku to go out and earn money in the future.

The Ox-King nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, sighing in admiration, "How truly miraculous! You are so thoughtful, Junior Brother, to have thought of gifting me such a practical treasure!"

Zhou Zilong waved his hand, modestly saying, "Senior Brother, you are too kind. It was merely a small effort. I hope this pendant brings you convenience; consider it a token of the bond between us."

The Ox-King nodded, moved, and carefully hung the pendant around his neck.

On the other side, Chi-Chi made a promise with Young Goku, who had boarded the car (that he would marry her when he grew up), and the innocent Young Goku agreed without a second thought.

As they continued their journey, Yamcha, who had been secretly tailing them, followed along.

During this time, just as in the anime, Zhou Zilong's group arrived at a small town ruled by a Rabbit Man, but in the face of absolute power, the rabbit's actions were nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Very quickly, the Rabbit Man was crushed by Zhou Zilong's absolute strength and sent to an unknown location to begin a life of hard labor.

During this interval, the group also met a wealthy young woman with long purple hair who knew a little martial arts, named Iris; their acquaintance was brought about by the incident with the Rabbit Man.

Iris had arrived in the town ruled by the Rabbit Man because she had taken the place of Bulma from the anime and been turned into a carrot. Just like in the original story, with Yamcha's help, Young Goku successfully rescued Iris from her carrot form.

At this moment, the Rabbit Man had set his sights on Zhou Zilong's group, leading to the tragedy of the Rabbit Man being crushed.

After helping the town restore peace, Iris joined Zhou Zilong and the others in their search for the Dragon Balls, as she expressed a great desire to see what the legendary Shenron looked like.

Of course, there was also Yamcha, who continued to follow them in secret, hoping to use the Dragon Balls to wish away his weakness of becoming shy whenever he came into contact with the opposite sex.

Continuing their journey, the group headed toward the location of the final Dragon Ball. Knowing the plot, Zhou Zilong realized he was about to encounter that peculiar trio.

Meanwhile, in a castle, the blue-skinned Pilaf was throwing a tantrum because his subordinate, Mai, could not build a Dragon Radar.

After some commotion, Pilaf decided it would be better to go find Zhou Zilong's group directly.

Because at the moment Zhou Zilong's group had set out on their journey, they had already crossed paths with Pilaf and his crew. At that time, Pilaf had inadvertently seen the Dragon Ball Young Goku was carrying, so he had arranged for a mechanical crow to act as a spy to keep an eye on their situation.

At this moment, the crow flew over and, through a special method, informed them that Zhou Zilong's group was approaching, and Pilaf's crew immediately began formulating a plan to seize the Dragon Balls.

On the other side, Oolong, who was sitting in the front seat driving the car, got into a small argument with Iris over something.

The reason for their quarrel was actually a pair of panties. Just a moment ago, when Iris opened her backpack to look for something, she rummaged through her bag of unwashed laundry and noticed one of her pairs of panties was missing.

Just as Iris was about to ask, the innocent and naive Young Goku, having witnessed the scene earlier, immediately said that Oolong had taken them. For this reason, Iris scolded Oolong, and Oolong responded with a thick-skinned attitude.

Just like in the original work, Oolong's lecherous nature remained unchanged, and he had a peculiar obsession with women's underwear. Of course, Oolong had once tried to steal Bulma's panties, but he had been caught on the spot by Zhou Zilong, who had pranked him to make him behave a little better.

After the argument, Oolong continued to drive the car forward.

After the car had traveled a distance, Mai, who was observing, picked up a walkie-talkie and said, "Emperor Pilaf, their car has just passed Location Number Ten; they are getting closer and closer!"

Pilaf replied from the other end, "Good, proceed according to the plan!"

Mai immediately responded, "Yes!"

After responding, Mai spoke into the walkie-talkie again, "Shu, I'm counting on you. Follow the plan!"

"Understood, leave it to me!" replied Shu, who had the appearance of a dog-man.

At this moment, Oolong, who was driving, suddenly slammed on the brakes. The reason was that he had started arguing with Iris again, and this time, the two were quarreling even more fiercely than before. The three people left watching the show looked on with different expressions.

Of course, the reason for this argument was even more bizarre. Iris, thinking more and more that Oolong was a pervert, told Bulma to be careful and keep her guard up, then proceeded to scold Oolong again, and the two fell into another argument.

Shu, sitting inside a machine, saw the scene of them arguing and said happily, "Great, they're having an internal conflict!"

In his excitement, Shu aimed his scope at the car once more.

At this moment, after the argument ended, Oolong resumed his duty as the driver and continued to move forward.

On the other side, after making a prediction, Shu immediately fired a small missile from his robot toward the car.

Sensing the danger, Zhou Zilong wrapped his arm around Bulma's slender waist, immediately used his Qi to blast the car door open, grabbed Oolong who was still driving, and said, "Prepare to jump! An attack is coming our way!"

With a "pong," not long after they jumped from the car, the small missile struck the front of the vehicle, emitting a loud explosion.

With a "thud," the car, caught in the blast, immediately spun in the air before crashing to the ground with a deafening roar.

On the other side, the robot piloted by Shu rushed toward Zhou Zilong's position after its attack hit the target.
