The Lookout was vast, its ground paved with white square tiles and decorated with various greenery.

After Sun Wukong took a quick look around, he soon heard a voice from his system.

"Ding! Check-in at the Lookout successful. Now activating Dragon Ball usage!"

"Ding! Dragon Ball usage activated successfully. You may make one wish. The Dragon Balls will grow stronger as the master's strength increases!"

Sun Wukong felt a surge of joy in his heart, but just then, he suddenly felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

Sun Wukong turned around and saw a man as black as charred coal.

The man wore strange attire and had a white turban wrapped around his head.

This person was none other than Mr. Popo, the attendant of the Guardian.

Sun Wukong was startled and instinctively took a few steps back.

"Who are you? What are you doing at the Lookout?"

Mr. Popo asked with a serious expression.

"My name is Sun Wukong. I heard from Master Roshi that there is a Lookout above Korin Tower, so I was curious and came to take a look!"

"Master Roshi?"

"Yes!"

"The Lookout is not a place for just anyone to visit. Now that you have seen it, you should go back!"

Sun Wukong nodded, turned around, and leaped downward.

Upon landing at the base of Korin Tower, Sun Wukong immediately shouted toward the sky.

"Flying Nimbus!"

"Whoosh..."

No sooner had he spoken than the Flying Nimbus flew down from the sky to catch Sun Wukong.

At the Lookout.

Seeing Sun Wukong leave, Mr. Popo immediately turned and walked away.

A moment later, Mr. Popo encountered the Earth's Guardian, who was leaning on a cane.

"Mr. Popo, was there someone at the Lookout just now?"

"Yes, Guardian! It was a child who said his name is Sun Wukong!"

"Sun Wukong! And why did he come here?"

"He said he heard about the Lookout from Master Roshi and was curious, so he came specifically to see it!"

"Master Roshi!"

"Yes!"

Mr. Popo nodded.

Below Korin Tower.

Sun Wukong was currently riding on the Flying Nimbus, pondering where to go next.

"Calculating the time, Bulma should have already set out to search for the Dragon Balls!"

Speaking of Dragon Balls, Sun Wukong immediately thought of his system.

His system was a Dragon Ball System, so logically, it should have a way to locate the Dragon Balls.

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong immediately asked the system.

"System, do you have a way to know the locations of the other Earth Dragon Balls?"

"Yes, Master!"

As soon as the words fell, a radar projection appeared in front of Sun Wukong.

"The current location of the master is this large red dot. The smaller dots on the radar represent the locations of the other Dragon Balls!"

Sun Wukong nodded and looked at the two small red dots on the Dragon Ball Radar.

Sun Wukong remembered that when Bulma first appeared, she seemed to have two Dragon Balls.

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong immediately directed the Flying Nimbus to fly toward the location of the two dots.

Deep in a large mountain, a young girl with long blue-green hair was driving a car through the rugged terrain.

The girl had a delicate, oval face, blue-purple eyes, and was wearing a pink dress; she was quite beautiful.

This person was Bulma.

Perhaps because she had been driving for too long, Bulma felt a bit sleepy and let out a yawn, when suddenly the Dragon Ball Radar sitting in the passenger seat began to beep.

Bulma curiously picked up the Dragon Ball Radar to take a look, and then she saw two Dragon Balls approaching her.

"Hmm, what's going on with these two Dragon Balls? They moved somewhere else this morning, and now they're heading toward me again—and they're getting very close!"

Bulma finished speaking and placed the Dragon Ball Radar back onto the passenger seat.

Just then, she saw a yellow cloud flying toward her from the front, with a person sitting on top of it.

That person was none other than Sun Wukong.

At this moment, Sun Wukong also spotted Bulma's car and was preparing to descend.

Because Bulma was momentarily distracted, her car hit a large rock on the ground and crashed into a tree ahead.

Black smoke instantly billowed from the car's hood.

Since she was wearing her seatbelt, Bulma didn't suffer any injuries.

Does this guy have to crash into me no matter what?

Having narrowly escaped disaster, Sun Wukong secretly grumbled to himself.

In the original Dragon Ball story, the first meeting between Sun Wukong and Bulma involved Bulma crashing her car into him.

Of course, given Sun Wukong's current strength, it wouldn't be an easy task for Bulma to hit him with her car.

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong immediately had the Flying Nimbus descend.

Very quickly, the Flying Nimbus lowered to a distance of one meter from the ground, and Sun Wukong stood up from the cloud and jumped down.

"Clang..."

At that exact moment, Bulma opened the car door, took the Dragon Ball Radar, and stepped out.

She glanced at the Dragon Ball Radar in her hand, confirmed that the Dragon Balls were indeed on Sun Wukong, and began to ponder silently.

Judging by the reaction on the Dragon Ball Radar, those two moving Dragon Balls must be on him! But how did he happen to appear here? Or could it be that, just like me, he also knows about the Dragon Balls? I'd better test him first!

Thinking of this, Bulma immediately put on a smile and spoke to Sun Wukong.

"Little brother, my car just broke down. Could you use your flying machine to take me away from here?"

"Flying machine? Are you talking about the Flying Nimbus?"

"Yes, yes, that's it! That yellow cloud from just a moment ago!"

Bulma laughed.

"That's not a flying machine; that's called the Flying Nimbus!"

"The Flying Nimbus?"

"That's right! But only someone with a pure heart can ride this Flying Nimbus!"

"Big sister is very pure!"

"Is that so?"

Sun Wukong looked at Bulma with an expression of disbelief.

"Of course! If you don't believe me, just call the cloud over and see if I can get on it!"

Bulma said, full of confidence.

"Alright then!"

After Sun Wukong spoke, he immediately summoned the Flying Nimbus.

"Okay, go ahead and jump on!"

"Watch me!"

Bulma jumped upward with confidence.

The next second, she passed right through the cloud and landed on the ground.

Sun Wukong stared at her.

Bulma immediately felt incredibly embarrassed.

"Try again!"

Bulma said, jumping upward once more.

Bulma passed through the cloud again and landed hard on her bottom.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Bulma stood up from the ground, her face flushed with shame.

"This cloud definitely isn't the same one from before. If it is, why don't you jump on and show me?"

Sun Wukong smiled and said.

"And what if I do jump on?"

"If... if you jump on, I'll give you this car!"

Bulma pointed toward the car that had crashed into the tree.

"Does everything inside the car belong to me too?"

Bulma heard this and immediately thought of the backpack inside the car.

That was where the Dragon Ball was kept.

"No, only the car is yours!"

"Is that so!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately leaped onto his Flying Nimbus.

"How about it?"

Bulma remained silent and immediately took the backpack down from the car.

"This car is yours!"

Sun Wukong retracted the car into a Hoi-Poi Capsule.
