In another room, Shu and Mai, who were taking a nap, immediately scrambled out of bed upon hearing Pilaf's voice.
"King Pilaf!"
As they spoke, the two quickly arrived at the castle's main hall.
Then, they saw Sun Wukong and the others.
"Su... Sun Wukong!"
The two said, their faces filled with terror.
"Long time no see, Shu, Mai!"
Sun Wukong laughed.
Shu glanced at Pilaf.
"King Pilaf!"
"It's nothing, they just want us to help build a Gravity Room!"
"Phew..."
Shu and Mai let out a sigh of relief.
"So it was just to build a Gravity Room!"
"Then the three of you come over here, I'll take you to Bulma's place!"
"Bulma's place?"
Although the three were puzzled, they still obediently walked over.
Sun Wukong placed two fingers of his right hand to his forehead and, with an Instant Transmission, brought them back to the backyard of Bulma's house.
"Wukong!"
Dr. Brief, who was drinking coffee in the backyard, greeted Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong nodded.
"Who are these people?"
Dr. Brief looked at Pilaf and the others and asked.
"They are people I found to help Bulma build a Gravity Room!"
"A Gravity Room? But don't you already have one?"
"This one is for my junior brother, Krillin!"
"I see!"
Sun Wukong nodded.
"Then Bulma, will you arrange things for them?"
"Mm!"
And just like that, Pilaf's gang settled down at Bulma's house.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and with the help of Pilaf's gang, Bulma completed a 100x Gravity Room.
"We've finished the Gravity Room for you, so can we leave now?"
Bulma nodded.
"You guys did a pretty good job; I'll look for you again next time I need help!"
"Next time!"
Pilaf's face darkened upon hearing this.
He never wanted to see that bane of his existence, Sun Wukong, ever again.
"Then we're leaving?"
"Mm!"
Seeing this, Pilaf immediately took Mai and the others and left.
They ran away as if they had just been liberated.
"Then I'm going to head over to Turtle Hermit Island?"
"Alright!"
After Sun Wukong finished speaking, he appeared on Turtle Hermit Island with an Instant Transmission.
At this moment, Krillin and Master Roshi were on the island, along with Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu.
"Senior Brother Wukong!"
Krillin greeted Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong nodded and looked toward Tien Shinhan and the others.
"Aren't those two Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu?"
"We meet again, Sun Wukong!"
Before Krillin could even open his mouth, Tien Shinhan took the initiative to greet Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong nodded.
At this moment, Master Roshi, standing to the side, spoke to Sun Wukong with a solemn expression.
"Wukong, from today on, Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu are your fellow disciples!"
"Fellow disciples!"
"That's right! They just finished apprenticing under me!"
"But aren't they the disciples of Master Shen?"
"They are no longer disciples of Master Shen!"
"They aren't?"
"Master Shen was always forcing me to do things I didn't like. After losing to you in the tournament half a month ago, he tried to force me again, so I had a huge argument with him and left the Crane School!"
Tien Shinhan stepped forward to explain.
"I see! Then from now on, you are my third junior brother, and I am your senior brother!"
Sun Wukong laughed.
"Se... Senior brother!"
Although Tien Shinhan didn't particularly like addressing Sun Wukong that way, he still whispered the title after considering the other's strength.
Sun Wukong nodded and looked toward Chiaotzu.
Chiaotzu glanced at Tien Shinhan, and seeing him nod, he also called out the title.
"What about me?"
Krillin laughed.
Although his strength wasn't quite up to par with Tien Shinhan and the others, he had joined the school much earlier than them.
Thwack!
Before Krillin could even wait for them to call him that, his bald head received two "knuckles" from Master Roshi.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Master Mutaito, what are you doing?"
"Krillin, why are you making things difficult for them?"
"But Senior Brother just did the same..."
Krillin pouted.
"You dare talk back!"
As Master Roshi spoke, he raised his right hand again, preparing to reward Krillin with another two "knuckles."
"I was wrong, Master Mutaito! I was wrong, Master Mutaito!"
Master Roshi let out a cold snort before finally lowering his right hand.
"Phew..."
Krillin breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, Wukong, why did you suddenly come over today?"
"Bulma finished the Gravity Room, so I brought it over for Krillin to use for training!"
"I see!"
"Gravity Room?"
Tien Shinhan, standing to the side, became curious about the Gravity Room they were talking about.
"Master Mutaito, what is this Gravity Room you speak of?"
"It's a house for training; you'll find out in a moment!"
"Oh!"
Following that, Sun Wukong took out the Hoi-Poi Capsule for the Gravity Room and tossed it onto the ground.
Very quickly, the Gravity Room appeared on the ground.
Sun Wukong led them inside, taught them how to use the Gravity Room, and then bid farewell to Master Roshi and the others before returning to Bulma's house.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
The Dragon Ball in Sun Wukong's system had recovered and was ready for use once again.
At this moment, Sun Wukong was pondering what wish he should make!
"System, can I learn the God of Destruction's Instant Transmission now?"
"Understood, Master!"
"Then I shall make my wish now: I want to learn the God-level Instant Transmission!"
"Very well, Master!"
As soon as the words fell, a massive influx of memories regarding the God-level Instant Transmission flooded into Sun Wukong's mind.
"Master, your wish has been granted!"
"Great! Now, I want to make my second wish!"
"And what would your second wish be, Master?"
"My second wish is that I want the ability to freely travel between the realms of the living and the dead!"
"Understood, Master!"
"Master, your wish has been granted!"
"It's already done? But I don't feel like anything has changed?"
"Why don't you try using Instant Transmission to go to Hell and see for yourself?"
"Hell!"
Sun Wukong thought for a moment and said.
"Forget it, I won't go to Hell. I believe you!"
"Master, you still have one wish remaining."
"I don't have anything I want to wish for right now, so I'll just save it for later!"
"As you command, Master!"
On Turtle Hermit Island, Krillin and Tien Shinhan were currently training in the Gravity Room when a ship suddenly pulled up outside the island.
Standing on the deck was a tall man and a small, flying blue cat.
They were none other than Yamcha and Puar.
Ever since the blow he suffered at the World Martial Arts Tournament, Yamcha had been in a slump for over half a year, only recently beginning to emerge from the shadow of Sun Wukong.
Losing to Sun Wukong time and time again had taught him the benefits of having a master to provide guidance.
Therefore, after much careful consideration, Yamcha decided to ask Master Roshi to take him on as a student.
Master Roshi was known to the world as the God of Martial Arts and was also Sun Wukong's master; even if he couldn't ultimately defeat Sun Wukong, his strength would surely be much greater than it was now.
