Dragon Ball World.

Age 749.

Earth, Turtle Hermit Island.

A youth dressed in an orange martial arts uniform was currently saying goodbye to Master Roshi.

This person was none other than Sun Wukong.

However, he was not the Sun Wukong from the original story, but a transmigrator.

One year ago, Lin Fan transmigrated into this world and became the eleven-year-old Sun Wukong.

Lin Fan was a veteran Dragon Ball fan who understood the importance of strength in the Dragon Ball World, so he left Mount Paozu and came to Turtle Hermit Island to seek apprenticeship.

Because Sun Wukong's grandfather had been a student of Master Roshi, Master Roshi did not make things difficult for him and took him in.

Because Lin Fan trained extremely hard, his combat power had nearly caught up to Master Roshi's in just one year.

Originally, Sun Wukong had no intention of leaving, but a few days ago, he had obtained a Dragon Ball System.

This Dragon Ball System was a wish-granting system that contained seven Dragon Balls, though they were currently just stone replicas.

The system told him that if he wanted to make a wish, he had to check in at the Lookout to activate the seven Dragon Balls.

Therefore, Sun Wukong used the excuse of going out for training to prepare to leave Turtle Hermit Island.

"Wukong, you must be careful while training out there!"

"Understood!"

Sun Wukong nodded.

"Well, Master Roshi, if there is nothing else, I'll be heading out now?"

"Wait!"

"Master Roshi, is there something else?"

"Ahem!"

Master Roshi cleared his throat and said.

"Eight months from now, the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament will be held in West City!"

"The World Martial Arts Tournament!"

"That's right, it is the most famous martial arts tournament in the world. I hope you can return by then to participate in this event!"

"Understood!"

Sun Wukong nodded and shouted toward the sky.

"Flying Nimbus!"

"Whoosh..."

No sooner had he spoken than a yellow cloud flew down from the sky.

Sun Wukong had initially thought he wouldn't be able to ride this Flying Nimbus.

After all, only those with a very pure heart could ride it.

Perhaps due to his transmigration, he was actually able to sit on it.

This led Master Roshi to believe that Sun Wukong was a person of great purity.

"Step..."

A moment later, the Flying Nimbus landed in front of Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong, carrying a large bundle on his back, quickly hopped on.

"Well, Master Roshi, Sea Turtle, I'm off!"

Sun Wukong waved goodbye to the man and the turtle.

"Mm!"

Master Roshi and Sea Turtle nodded.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong steered the Flying Nimbus and departed.

Only after Sun Wukong's figure had completely disappeared did Master Roshi slowly retract his gaze.

Since it would take half a day to reach the Lookout, Sun Wukong simply took a nap on the Flying Nimbus. When he woke up again, he was already beneath a tower that soared into the clouds.

This tower was none other than Korin Tower from the Dragon Ball World; above Korin Tower lay the Lookout.

"This tower really is high!"

Sun Wukong muttered to himself as he steered the Flying Nimbus upward.

After an unknown amount of time, Sun Wukong suddenly saw an oval-shaped structure.

This was the top of Korin Tower.

A cat with white fur all over its body, holding a staff in its hand, stood within the tower, its eyes fixed on the approaching Sun Wukong.

This cat was none other than Karin, also known as the Cat Hermit.

"Step..."

Before long, Sun Wukong arrived inside the tower, riding the Flying Nimbus.

The Cat Hermit swept a glance over Sun Wukong and spoke.

"Little brat, who are you? Why did you come up here riding the Flying Nimbus?"

"Hello, my name is Sun Wukong!"

"Sun Wukong?"

"This Flying Nimbus was a gift from Master Roshi!"

"Master Roshi, what is he to you?"

"He is my master!"

Sun Wukong replied.

"So, that means you are his disciple?"

Sun Wukong nodded.

"Then what are you here for?"

"I have something to do, and I want to go to the Lookout!"

"The Lookout!"

The Cat Hermit looked up toward the ceiling.

Just then, a rumbling sound suddenly came from Sun Wukong's stomach.

"Um, Lord Karin, do you have anything to eat here?"

Sun Wukong asked the Cat Hermit with a smile.

The Cat Hermit glanced at a dead fish lying not far away.

Following the Cat Hermit's gaze, Sun Wukong also saw the dead fish on the floor.

"Lord Karin, that..."

Before Sun Wukong could finish, the Cat Hermit immediately scooped up the fish and said.

"This fish is my lunch, I can't give it to you!"

"Grumble..."

The sound of Sun Wukong's hungry stomach rang out once more.

The Cat Hermit thought for a moment and said.

"Wait here, I'll go get you something to eat!"

"Oh!"

As he spoke, the Cat Hermit lifted a wooden board on the floor and climbed down.

A while later, the Cat Hermit slowly climbed back up and tossed a Senzu Bean to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong caught the Senzu Bean in his right hand and asked.

"What is this?"

"This is called a Senzu Bean!"

"A Senzu Bean?"

"That's right! Don't let its size fool you; an ordinary person only needs to eat one, and they won't need to eat for ten days!"

"Really!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately tossed the Senzu Bean into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Because the Senzu Bean was raw, it didn't taste very good.

"How is it?"

"My stomach doesn't feel as hungry, but I'm still a little bit hungry!"

"Then I'll give you another Senzu Bean!"

The Cat Hermit said, taking out another Senzu Bean and tossing it to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong caught the Senzu Bean again.

This time, Sun Wukong swallowed it without much chewing.

"How is it, Wukong?"

"I'm not hungry anymore!"

"Is that so!"

Hearing this, the Cat Hermit immediately felt relieved and began to grill his fish.

"Korin, could you give me some more Senzu Beans?"

"What do you need Senzu Beans for?"

Cat Hermit turned his head and asked.

"Training!"

"Fine! But don't you dare touch my fish, or I won't give you any!"

"Mm!"

Sun Wukong nodded.

Seeing this, Cat Hermit opened the wooden floorboard and climbed down.

A moment later, Cat Hermit came back up, holding a bag full of Senzu Beans for Sun Wukong.

At this time, the Cat Hermit's supply of Senzu Beans hadn't been squandered by Yajirobe yet, so there were still plenty left.

"Thank you!"

Sun Wukong took the Senzu Beans.

"I won't disturb your meal any further!"

Cat Hermit nodded.

"By the way, Wukong, would you like to drink the Ultra Divine Water?"

"Ultra Divine Water?"

"Yes! Don't tell me Master Roshi never told you about it?"

"He mentioned it, but isn't it true that to drink the Ultra Divine Water, one has to climb up Korin Tower?"

"It's more than that; you must pass my test before you can drink the Ultra Divine Water!"

Sun Wukong thought for a moment and said.

"I have other things to attend to right now, so let's leave it for next time!"

"Very well!"

"Goodbye then, Korin!"

After saying this, Sun Wukong immediately used the Flight Technique and flew upward.

Flight Technique, huh!

Cat Hermit thought to himself.

Immediately after, he looked at the grilled fish in front of him with a greedy expression.

After flying upward, Sun Wukong soon saw a spinning top-shaped "boulder."

This "boulder" was none other than the Lookout.

After flying for a little longer, Sun Wukong quickly arrived at the Lookout.
