A Saiyan's stomach could hold food weighing thirty-six times as much as he did. For adolescent Saiyans who were still growing, their stomachs could stretch that limit even further.
Clueless Briefs innocently took Sun Yu and Lana to the most luxurious hotel in East City. To show his hospitality, he ordered a table full of dishes. The moment he told Sun Yu and Lana, "Please, help yourselves," the two of them started devouring the food like starving ghosts.
What did it mean to eat everything in sight? In Briefs's experience, a table full of food that would take more than ten adults to finish had just been wiped out by the two boys before him in three minutes! They had even licked every plate clean. If the plates were served to other guests now, nobody would ever guess they hadn't been washed.
"Waiter, we'll have twenty more servings of every dish!" Sun Yu shouted to the waiter, who had frozen solid off to the side.
"Kael, don't just eat by yourself. Save some for me!" Lana said shyly to Sun Yu, elegantly wiping the grease from her lips.
"Oh, right. Waiter, make that forty servings of each dish!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Briefs clutched his chest, rolled his eyes, and fainted on the spot...
"Oh no, this uncle fainted from hunger. Hey! Waiter, hurry up and bring out the food! Someone's fainted from hunger over here!"
The chefs at the East City Hotel then faced the darkest day of their careers. The hotel used up nearly all of its supplies for the month. After working themselves to the bone for three hours, the overburdened chefs finally couldn't take it anymore and called the police.
Heh, they even called the police. You had to admire the chefs' nerve.
As it turned out, the same East City police officers showed up. The moment they spotted Sun Yu and Lana from a distance, they turned around and slapped the chef who had called them right across the face. "If you can't serve these two properly, you can expect to go to jail."
Ten hours later, Sun Yu and Lana each let out a deeply satisfied burp, bringing the meal to an end.
"Huh? Uncle Briefs, weren't we going shopping? Why are you asking us to go to your house first?" Sun Yu asked, confused, when Briefs invited the two of them over.
Briefs secretly felt his empty wallet. He had withdrawn cash from the bank earlier, and now it was all gone. Still, he forced a smile and said, "Well, my wife has prepared some desserts at home. Would you two like to try them?"
"Really? Great! Kael, let's hurry over. Just hearing the name of that delicious food called 'dessert' tells me it must taste great!"
Lana had been thoroughly won over by Earth's cuisine. After all, if you wanted to win a woman's heart, you had to win her stomach first!
Well, there wasn't really anything wrong with that.
In any case, Briefs had successfully resolved the financial crisis he'd found himself in.
Lying comfortably in Briefs's spacious luxury car, Lana leaned against Sun Yu's shoulder and quietly admired the beautiful streets outside. Now this was the life!
Before long, they arrived at Briefs's home. The servants arranged baths for Sun Yu and Lana. The servant attending to Sun Yu didn't show any particular curiosity when she saw the tail behind him. Perhaps that was because, in the Dragon Ball world, there were all sorts of people besides humans. If they could accept pig-headed and tiger-headed people, then naturally nobody would treat a tailed Saiyan as a freak.
After their baths, the servants carefully picked out the latest fashions for Sun Yu and Lana. Once everything was taken care of, they were invited into the living room to try some desserts.
As Sun Yu entered the living room, he saw Briefs's young, beautiful wife with dyed blonde curls, as well as a little blue-haired girl in her arms who looked like a doll. A clap of thunder seemed to go off in his mind.
Only then did Sun Yu notice the logo on Briefs's uniform: "Capsule Corp"!
"I remember now—you're Bulma's father!" Sun Yu exclaimed as he looked at Uncle Briefs, suddenly realizing who he was: a genius scientist, the founder of Capsule Corp, and the future richest man in the world!
"Uh, Mr. Sun, how do you know my daughter?" Briefs asked, eyes wide with astonishment.
"Dr. Briefs, you're too kind!" After learning who Briefs was, Sun Yu didn't dare treat him casually anymore. "Doctor, could I ask you for a favor?"
Sun Yu's sudden change in attitude left everyone present dumbfounded, especially Lana. She found her younger cousin more and more difficult to understand.
"M-Mr. Sun, you're too kind. If there's anything I can do for you, please just say the word!" Briefs knew how terrifying Sun Yu and Lana's strength was. Besides, he was sincerely grateful to Sun Yu for saving his life, so he didn't dare act superior.
Hearing Briefs's answer, Sun Yu grinned and leaned in close, speaking in a mysterious tone. "It's like this, Dr. Briefs. I need a training room where I can adjust the gravity however I like. For now, let's set the maximum gravity to a hundred times normal. You should be able to make that, right?"
"A hundred times!" Briefs cried out in surprise. "Mr. Sun, building the gravity training room you want won't be difficult, but do you know what setting it to a hundred times gravity means?"
"Of course I do." Sun Yu shrugged, unconcerned, and quoted the original story directly. "A person weighing ... kilograms would weigh ... tons under a hundred times gravity. I'm not wrong, am I?"
Briefs nodded mechanically. Seeing that Sun Yu still looked completely calm, and recalling the strength Sun Yu had shown earlier, Briefs finally gritted his teeth. "All right. Since it's what you want, Mr. Sun, I'll give it a try. Please make yourself at home. I'll head to the lab and look into this gravity training room."
"Sure, Doctor. Go ahead," Sun Yu replied.
Dr. Briefs disappeared into the laboratory, and Mrs. Briefs left to prepare more desserts for Lana. The only ones left in the living room were Lana, licking the cake left on her fingers, and Bulma and Sun Yu, who were staring at each other.
"I never thought Bulma would be this cute when she was little!" After everything that had happened, Sun Yu felt as if his brain couldn't keep up. He just sat there, staring blankly at Bulma. Then, as if possessed, he secretly reached out and gently pinched her rosy cheek.
So soft. That was Sun Yu's first impression of Bulma's cheek. Oh no, could he be a pervert deep down? No! He wasn't a pervert, absolutely not. His hand had just slipped!
"Hey, hey, are some people really unable to leave even little girls alone?" Lana stared at Sun Yu with disdain, making his face turn red.
"My hand slipped by accident just now. Haha..." Sun Yu tried to defend himself.
"Little one, come over here with your big sister. Be careful—some bad people might do strange things to you." Lana instantly transformed into a warm big sister and opened her arms to little Bulma.
"Okay..." Bulma answered softly, then sat beside Lana and reached out to pinch the tail wrapped around Lana's waist.
"Hey, Sis Lana, you'd better explain what you mean by me doing strange things to her!" Sun Yu said, staring at Lana.
"Forget about that. What's that gravity training room you just asked the doctor to make?" Lana asked curiously.
