Android 8

Meanwhile, after Tambourine died, King Piccolo suddenly felt uneasy. His connection with Tambourine had abruptly been severed.

"Tambourine!"

"What is it, King Piccolo?"

Pilaf asked.

"My connection with Tambourine suddenly broke!"

"Broke? Could something have happened to Lord Tambourine?"

King Piccolo shot him a cold look.

Pilaf shuddered in fright and hurriedly dropped to his knees.

"I'm sorry, King Piccolo! I didn't mean it that way. I'm just worried about Lord Tambourine!"

King Piccolo snorted. After thinking it over, he vomited up another enormous white egg.

"Crack..."

A tall man with green skin and a pair of wings on his back burst out of the shell.

"Cymbal, Tambourine went to search for the Dragon Balls yesterday, and I suddenly lost contact with him today. Go find him for me, and bring back the Dragon Balls while you're at it!"

"Yes, King Piccolo!"

"Then, King Piccolo, where is Tambourine now?"

King Piccolo glanced at Pilaf, who stood nearby.

Pilaf grinned and pulled out a map of Red Ribbon Army headquarters, handing it to Cymbal.

"Lord Cymbal, this map shows the way to Red Ribbon Army headquarters. Lord Tambourine should be there now!"

"Is that so?"

Cymbal took the map.

"Then, King Piccolo, I'll be off?"

"Mm!"

Cymbal immediately beat his wings and flew upward.

Red Ribbon Army commander's office.

Sun Wukong had now obtained the six Dragon Balls Staff Officer Black had collected.

"System, the Dragon Ball Radar only shows six Dragon Balls. Can you help me find the last one?"

"Of course!"

As the system spoke, a Dragon Ball Radar projection appeared before Sun Wukong.

Alongside the six Dragon Balls Sun Wukong had already obtained, the projection showed a small dot that didn't appear on Bulma's Dragon Ball Radar.

After learning where the last Dragon Ball was, Sun Wukong immediately set off toward it.

After a long while, Sun Wukong flew to a place blanketed in snow.

The weather there was so cold that Sun Wukong used Instant Transmission to return to Bulma's house.

"Goku!"

Sun Wukong shivered with cold.

"Bulma, do you have any thick clothes?"

"I do! But they're all mine, so they probably won't fit you. What happened, Goku?"

Sun Wukong took the six Dragon Balls he had just obtained from the system.

"The Dragon Balls!"

"The last Dragon Ball is somewhere really cold, so I came to borrow some clothes!"

"Goku, did you really defeat the Red Ribbon Army?"

"Otherwise, do you think I'm joking?"

"It's not impossible that you are!"

"By the way, my dad has plenty of thick clothes. I'll go get you some."

"Okay!"

A little while later, Bulma brought out some of Dr. Brief's warm clothes, along with a blue coat.

Sun Wukong looked at the clothes and said,

"Bulma, these clothes seem a little too big."

"You know the Transformation Technique, don't you? Just make yourself bigger."

"..."

Sun Wukong was speechless. If he did that, he'd never need to buy clothes again.

After hesitating for a moment, Sun Wukong finally used the Transformation Technique to put on the clothes.

"That's more like it!"

Bulma smiled.

No matter how strong Sun Wukong was, he still had to listen to her, didn't he?

"Then, Bulma, I'm off?"

"Mm!"

Bulma smiled and nodded.

Sun Wukong immediately used the Flight Technique to leave.

After a long while, Sun Wukong arrived once again in a place covered in snow.

Amid the frozen landscape, he spotted a tower.

It was called Muscle Tower, a Red Ribbon Army outpost.

As soon as Sun Wukong appeared, the soldiers inside Muscle Tower opened fire on him with the machine guns outside.

Sun Wukong dodged the bullets, kicked the door open, and charged inside.

When the soldiers in the tower saw him burst in, they immediately fired at him.

Sun Wukong blurred past them, quickly taking down the nearby soldiers and General White on the first floor.

Then he quickly charged through the second and third floors.

When he reached the fourth floor, he encountered a ninja dressed in purple.

The ninja was named Sergeant Purple, a Red Ribbon Army sergeant.

"Kid, who are you? What are you doing here?"

"I'm here for the Dragon Balls. If you're willing to hand them over, I might spare your lives!"

"Dragon Balls? We don't have any here. And even if we did, I wouldn't hand them over to a brat like you!"

"Is that so?"

Sun Wukong chuckled, then suddenly said, "Change!" to Purple Sergeant.

Purple Sergeant immediately turned into a turtle.

Sun Wukong's Transformation Technique could change not only his own appearance, but also ordinary people's appearances and even transform people into objects.

"W-what's going on? Why did you suddenly get so big?"

"I didn't get bigger. You got smaller!"

"I got smaller?"

As Purple Sergeant spoke, he looked down at his body and realized he had turned into a turtle.

"How did I turn into a turtle?"

"This is called the Transformation Technique. Call me Grandpa, and I'll turn you back!"

"A man may be killed, but never humiliated!"

"Oh!"

Sun Wukong turned and started walking away.

"W-wait! Don't go! G-Grandpa!"

"I'm not related to a grandson like you!"

Sun Wukong laughed.

"Damn you!"

Purple Sergeant angrily crawled after Sun Wukong.

But at a turtle's pace, how could Purple Sergeant possibly catch up?

Just then, four ninjas who looked exactly like Purple Sergeant appeared.

They were Purple Sergeant's five brothers, all born as quintuplets.

"Big Brother, save me! Kill this brat!"

Purple Sergeant looked at the four men as though he'd seen hope.

The four glared menacingly at Sun Wukong.

"Do you want to turn into turtles too?"

The four looked down at Purple Sergeant on the ground.

"Second Brother, there's nothing we can do. You're on your own."

After saying that, Purple Sergeant's eldest brother promptly ran off with the others.

"Big Brother!"

Purple Sergeant's hopes instantly crumbled.

Sun Wukong had now reached a crocodile pit.

He gathered several blasts of ki at the tip of his right index finger and killed all the crocodiles in the pit.

Then he walked into the pit, grabbed a dead crocodile, and cut open its belly.

Inside the crocodile's stomach, Sun Wukong found the last Dragon Ball.

He put it away and was about to leave when a man who looked like a mad scientist appeared.

The man was named Android 8, an android created by Dr. Gero.

As soon as Android 8 appeared, Sun Wukong quickly turned to look at him.
