"Wow, Mr. Sea Turtle, the place you live is so huge!" Little Goku exclaimed in surprise after arriving at the seaside with Master Roshi's Sea Turtle and seeing the endless ocean.

"Little brother, thank you for this time. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to see Zhou Zilong, nor would I have been able to return to the shore so quickly. Wait for me here for a moment!" the Sea Turtle said to Little Goku before entering the water.

Little Goku nodded to show it was no problem, and in a few moments, the Sea Turtle in the water disappeared from the trio's sight.

The sea breeze blew gently, carrying a hint of saltiness, while the sunlight spilled onto the golden beach, shimmering with dazzling radiance.

"It's a pity I didn't bring my swimsuit, otherwise I could have gone for a swim in the ocean while waiting for the Sea Turtle to return," Bulma sighed softly, sensing they would be waiting for quite a while, and turned to look at Zhou Zilong beside her, a glimmer of anticipation flashing in her eyes.

Zhou Zilong smiled slightly. He glanced at Bulma's light attire, and a flash of inspiration crossed his eyes. "I seem to have a few sets of diving gear in one of my capsule houses; I can give them to you if you want!" he said nonchalantly, as if it were all a matter of course.

Hearing this, a flash of pleasant surprise appeared in Bulma's eyes.

"Great! Then you'll come with me, Zilong!" she said, excitedly grabbing Zhou Zilong's hand.

Zhou Zilong nodded, first putting on a show by throwing out a house that had been shrunk into a capsule.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! This water is so salty!" Just then, a childish voice suddenly rang out.

It was Little Goku. He had taken off his shoes and gone to the shallow water; thirsty, he had scooped up the seawater to drink, only to end up sticking his tongue out from the saltiness.

Seeing this, Zhou Zilong shook his head helplessly. "Goku, seawater has a lot of salt in it. If you're thirsty, just tell me!" He walked over and handed Little Goku a bottle of water.

Little Goku took the water and drank it in big gulps, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

Seeing this, Bulma couldn't help but laugh as well.

She pulled Zhou Zilong and Little Goku toward the house, and Zhou Zilong took advantage of the gap to spend money with Xiao Ling to purchase three sets of diving gear, placing them inside the capsule house he had just deployed.

The three of them put on the diving gear and headed to the seaside, slowly submerging and beginning a marvelous journey under the sea.

After several hours of waiting, the three finally surfaced from the bottom of the sea, and Bulma's face was filled with undisguised joy.

Clutched tightly in her hand was a crystalline gem; it was a strange stone she had discovered in an underwater cave, but what excited her even more was the mountain of gold coins and treasures piled up inside the cave.

"I can't believe we actually found treasure!" Bulma held the crystal high, and the sunlight pierced through it, refracting into colorful rays of light.

It turned out that while diving, the three had discovered a cave connected to the ground, filled with glittering gold coins and jewelry—enough for the three of them to enjoy for a lifetime. They packed the treasure into 50 large chests and stored them away using Bulma's capsule technology.

"Those things aren't edible, they're useless," Little Goku said, scratching his head and looking at Bulma's excited face in confusion. Having lived in the deep mountains since he was a child, he had no great interest in gold coins or treasures.

"I really don't know what to do with you!" Bulma shook her head helplessly.

Zhou Zilong smiled and patted Bulma on the shoulder, comforting her: "Don't blame Goku. After all, he's lived in the mountains his whole life, and there are many things he doesn't know yet!"

"Hehe!" Little Goku also scratched his head and responded.

After changing their clothes, the three continued to wait for the Sea Turtle on the beach.

"Mr. Sea Turtle is here!" Two hours later, Zhou Zilong suddenly shouted. With his exceptional eyesight, he had spotted Master Roshi's Sea Turtle swimming toward them from far away.

At the same time, there was someone standing on the Sea Turtle's back, and Zhou Zilong recognized who it was at a single glance.

Master Roshi had barely stepped off the Sea Turtle's back before he ran toward Bulma: "Little girl, how about going on a date with me!"

Bulma was currently gripping Zhou Zilong's arm tightly and glared at Master Roshi without showing any weakness, saying: "You lecherous old man, go find someone else. I have a fiancé, so be careful or my fiancé will chop you down with one palm!"

"Master Mutian, it's been a few years. You're still the same as ever!" Zhou Zilong said to Master Roshi with a smile.

"Haha, just livening up the atmosphere! Zilong, you haven't changed either. You've even found such a beautiful girl and settled down—not bad at all!" Master Roshi patted Zhou Zilong on the shoulder and said with a laugh.

"Hehe, just lucky. Master Mutian, this little guy was the one who found Mr. Sea Turtle this time. You should give him a reward!" Zhou Zilong pointed to Little Goku not far away.

"Oh? Is that so? Then I must take a good look at this little guy!" Hearing this, Master Roshi immediately walked toward Little Goku and examined him carefully.

"Little guy, thank you! You did a great job! This is your reward!" Master Roshi pointed his cane toward the sky, and soon, a golden cloud that looked like cotton candy—the Flying Nimbus—appeared before Little Goku's eyes.

"This is the Flying Nimbus. Only those with a pure heart can ride it," Master Roshi explained, feigning profundity.

Master Roshi took a deep breath, preparing to demonstrate how to get on the Flying Nimbus. He gave a light leap, attempting to step onto the cloud, but his body suddenly lost its balance, and he stumbled and fell to the ground. He laughed awkwardly and rubbed his head, looking a bit embarrassed.

"Haha, Master Mutian, be careful!" Zhou Zilong and Bulma couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

At this moment, Little Goku refocused his attention on the Flying Nimbus. He took a deep breath and gave a light leap, his body floating gracefully toward the cloud.

At that very moment, he felt the softness and warmth of the Flying Nimbus, as if he were being lifted by a mysterious power.

The Flying Nimbus carried him soaring through the air, and he felt a sense of freedom and joy he had never experienced before.

"I can fly! I can fly!" Little Goku shouted excitedly, his voice echoing in the sea breeze.

Seeing Little Goku so happy, Zhou Zilong and Bulma both felt very pleased.

Just then, Bulma noticed a necklace hanging around Master Roshi's neck, with a glittering orb attached to it.

Bulma observed it curiously, examining the orb closely.

She discovered that this orb was exactly the same as the Dragon Ball she had been searching for! Her heart surged with excitement, and she hurriedly asked: "Old man, can you give me this necklace with the Dragon Ball? If not, I'll pay to buy it. I have a use for that star-patterned orb!"

Master Roshi smiled slightly and said: "You are my disciple's fiancée, why talk about money? I'll just give it to you, but remember to bring a cute young girl to go on a date with me next time!"

As he spoke, he took the necklace off his neck and handed it to Bulma.
