The Lookout was vast, its ground paved with white square tiles, with greenery planted all around.

After glancing around, Sun Wukong soon heard the system's voice.

"Ding! Sign-in at the Lookout successful. Dragon Ball use is now activated!"

"Ding! Dragon Ball use activated successfully. One wish may be made. The Dragon Balls will grow stronger as their owner grows stronger!"

Sun Wukong was delighted. Just then, he suddenly felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

He turned around and saw a man as black as charcoal.

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

This was Mr. Popo, the Guardian's servant.

Sun Wukong jumped in fright and instinctively took several steps back.

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

Mr. Popo asked sternly.

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

"Master Roshi?"

"Yeah!"

"Not just anyone can come to the Lookout. Now that you've seen it, go back."

Sun Wukong nodded, turned around, and leaped down.

As he reached the bottom of Korin Tower, Sun Wukong immediately shouted up at the sky.

"Flying Nimbus!"

"Whoosh..."

As soon as he spoke, the Flying Nimbus came swooping down from the sky and caught him.

The Lookout.

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

A while later, he came upon the Guardian of Earth, who was leaning on his staff.

"Mr. Popo, did someone just come to the Lookout?"

"Yes, Guardian! It was a child. He said his name was Sun Wukong!"

"Sun Wukong! What was he doing here?"

"He said he'd heard about the Lookout from Master Roshi and was curious, so he came to take a look!"

"Master Roshi!"

"Mm!"

Mr. Popo nodded.

At the foot of Korin Tower.

Sun Wukong was riding the Flying Nimbus, thinking about where to go next.

"By my reckoning, Bulma should have already set out to look for the Dragon Balls!"

At the mention of the Dragon Balls, Sun Wukong immediately thought of his system.

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

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong immediately asked the system.

"System, can you tell me where the other Earth Dragon Balls are?"

"Yes, Master!"

As soon as the system spoke, a radar projection appeared in front of Sun Wukong.

"The large red dot is your current location. The smaller dots on the Dragon Radar show the locations of the other Dragon Balls!"

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

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

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong immediately sent the Flying Nimbus toward the two dots.

In the mountains, a blue-green-haired girl was driving a car along a winding road.

She had a heart-shaped face and blue-violet eyes, and wore a pink dress. She was very pretty.

This was Bulma.

Perhaps because she'd been driving for too long, Bulma felt drowsy and yawned. The Dragon Radar on the passenger seat suddenly beeped.

Curious, Bulma picked up the Dragon Radar and took a look. She saw that two Dragon Balls were moving toward her.

"Hmm, what's going on with these two Dragon Balls? They moved somewhere else this morning, and now they're coming my way—and getting really close!"

After saying this, Bulma put the Dragon Radar back on the passenger seat.

Just then, she saw a yellow cloud flying toward her, with someone sitting on it.

It was Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong spotted Bulma's car too and was about to land.

Distracted for a moment, Bulma hit a large rock in the road, and her car crashed into a tree.

A puff of black smoke immediately billowed from the hood.

Because she was wearing a seat belt, Bulma wasn't hurt.

"This girl really has it out for me, doesn't she?"

Sun Wukong had narrowly avoided the crash and grumbled to himself.

In the original Dragon Ball story, Sun Wukong and Bulma's first meeting was when she crashed her car into him.

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

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

Soon, the Flying Nimbus stopped a meter above the ground. Sun Wukong stood up on it and jumped down.

"Clunk..."

Just then, Bulma opened the car door and climbed out, holding the Dragon Radar.

She glanced at the device and confirmed that the Dragon Balls were on Sun Wukong. Then she began thinking to herself.

"Judging by the Dragon Radar, those two moving Dragon Balls must be on him! But how did he happen to show up here? Or does he know about the Dragon Balls too? I'd better test him first!"

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

"Hey, little guy, my car just broke down. Could you take me away on your flying machine?"

"Flying machine? Do you mean the Flying Nimbus?"

"Right, right! That yellow cloud from just now!"

Bulma smiled.

"It's not a flying machine. It's called the Flying Nimbus!"

"The Flying Nimbus?"

"Yeah! But only someone with a pure heart can ride it!"

"I have a pure heart!"

"Do you?"

Sun Wukong looked at Bulma skeptically.

"Of course! If you don't believe me, call that cloud over and see if I can ride it!"

Bulma said confidently.

"All right!"

Sun Wukong finished speaking and immediately called the Flying Nimbus over.

"Okay, jump on!"

"Here I go!"

Bulma confidently jumped up.

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

Sun Wukong watched her.

Bulma immediately looked embarrassed.

"Again!"

After saying this, Bulma jumped up once more.

She passed through the cloud again and landed hard on her rear.

Sun Wukong couldn't help laughing when he saw that.

Blushing, Bulma got up from the ground and said,

"That definitely wasn't the same cloud as before. Why don't you show me how to get on it?"

Sun Wukong smiled.

"What if I do?"

"If... if you can get on it, I'll give you this car!"

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

"Do I get the things inside, too?"

Bulma immediately thought of the backpack in the car.

The Dragon Balls were inside it.

"No, you only get the car!"

"Oh, I see!"

After hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately jumped onto the Flying Nimbus.

"Well?"

Without a word, Bulma took the backpack out of the car.

"The car's yours!"

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