Hearing the farmer's words, the three of them couldn't help feeling surprised. Ziye was no exception. His memories of Dragon Ball from his previous life only went back to his childhood. He could remember some of the general plot, but he had long since forgotten details like this.
"What do you mean? Who's trying to hurt your daughter?"
Ziye furrowed his brows and asked in confusion.
"Aren't you Oolong's lackeys?"
"Oolong? Who's that?"
Sun Wukong asked with a clueless expression.
Hearing this, the farmer realized it was all a misunderstanding. The villagers hiding in various places also began to emerge.
"I'm so sorry. We mistook you for someone else!" the farmer said apologetically.
"Who's this Oolong you were talking about?" Bulma asked in confusion.
At the mention of Oolong, fear spread across the villagers' faces. The farmer's daughter was so frightened that she burst into tears.
"Oolong is a monster who lives around here. He's really powerful and can transform into all sorts of things. Nobody knows what he really looks like!"
"And that monster is a real womanizer. He's kidnapped several girls from our village. Yesterday, he threatened us, saying we had to hand over my daughter or he'd make our whole village pay!"
Hearing this, Ziye remembered who Oolong was. Sun Wukong, meanwhile, said indignantly, "I can't believe there's such a despicable guy! Don't worry, I won't let him get away with this!"
"Thank you so much!"
The farmer bowed deeply in gratitude.
"By the way, old man..."
"Have you ever seen a ball like this?"
Bulma set down her backpack, took out the Dragon Ball, and handed it to him.
The farmer picked up the ball and examined it carefully. Just then, an old woman wearing a red headscarf came out and said, "I've seen this before. I have one just like it at home!"
"Grandma Paozu, you have one?"
"Mm-hmm."
Grandma Paozu nodded, then took a Dragon Ball from her pocket.
"It's the Six-Star Ball! This is wonderful!" Bulma exclaimed excitedly.
"Grandma, would you be willing to give us the ball?" Bulma asked pleadingly.
"Since you're going to help our village get rid of that monster, of course!" Grandma Paozu said with a laugh, then handed the Dragon Ball to Bulma.
"Oolong's here! Everybody, run!"
Suddenly, someone shouted. The villagers' faces filled with fear, and they scattered at once, hiding inside their homes.
"My sweet little girl, I've come to get you!"
A huge, red, humanoid boar barged straight in, dressed in a spotless white suit and carrying a bouquet of roses.
"Are you Oolong?"
Sun Wukong and Ziye blocked the big creature's path and asked coldly.
"You brats, get out of my way! Or I'll make you regret it!" Oolong roared angrily at them.
"Hmph."
"I won't let you hurt the villagers."
"Goku, why waste your breath? Let's just beat him up!"
With that, Ziye leaped into the air and charged at him, full of fight.
"Hey, wait!"
"Why do you brats always jump straight to fighting?"
Oolong looked terrified and instinctively backed away a few steps.
Bam!
The next moment, Ziye's fist slammed into him, sending Oolong flying! As he hit the ground, Oolong turned into a hawk and quickly flew away.
"We can't let him get away, or he'll hurt the villagers again!"
"Flying Nimbus!"
Goku's expression turned serious. He climbed onto the Flying Nimbus and chased after Oolong. Seeing this, Ziye followed without hesitation.
"Hey, you two, be careful!" Bulma shouted anxiously.
Oolong had barely gotten away when his expression suddenly changed. He looked panicked as he said, "Oh no, time's up!"
The next second, after a puff of white smoke, Oolong returned to his original form: a small, weak-looking pink pig.
"Did you see a big hawk fly by here?"
Goku glanced at Oolong, not recognizing him in his current form, and asked.
"I did. It went that way!" Oolong said, pointing in a random direction.
"Thanks."
"Goku, wait. Don't chase him."
At the sound of Ziye's voice, Goku stopped and turned around to ask, "Why? We can't let him get away, or he'll hurt the villagers again."
"He won't get away."
Ziye gave a cold laugh, then walked up to the pink pig and patted him on the shoulder. "Isn't that right, great monster Oolong?"
"What are you talking about? How could I possibly be the mighty Oolong?" The pink pig said nervously, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"Yeah, Ziye! You've got the wrong guy, haven't you? He looks so weak. How could he be Oolong?"
"Heh. Goku, don't forget that guy can transform!"
Ziye picked Oolong up by the scruff and said coldly.
"Put me down! Put me down! I'll never do it again!" Oolong begged nervously.
"Ah, so it really was you!"
Goku pointed at Oolong and said angrily.
"Let's take him back and hand him over to the villagers."
"Okay."
The next moment, the two of them headed back toward the village with Oolong.
"So this is what Oolong really looks like? Just a little pink pig?"
Bulma looked at the creature in front of her in surprise and couldn't help finding him a little amusing.
"I'm sorry, everyone. I know I was wrong," Oolong said, bowing to the villagers with an apologetic expression.
"Seeing him like this, I don't think I can stay mad at him."
"What happened to the girls you kidnapped?" the villagers asked anxiously.
"They're all fine. They're still at my house," Oolong said, pouting.
"Take us there right now!"
Soon, Oolong led everyone to an imposing, luxurious estate.
"This is my place," Oolong said, pointing at the estate.
"Your place is pretty impressive," Bulma said in surprise.
"Of course. I built it with the money I stole," Oolong said proudly.
"You're proud of that?" Ziye shot him a glare.
"They're all inside the estate. Go on in."
The villagers couldn't hold back any longer. Worried about their daughters, they rushed into the estate, but what they saw left them stunned.
All the girls who had been kidnapped were living like princesses, surrounded by fine clothes and delicious food!
"Dad, it's been so long! What are you doing here?"
"Don't take us back. We're happy living here."
"Yeah, and we don't even have to work in the fields."
Everyone was stunned by what they heard.
"Please, just take them back. All they ever do is yell at me and spend all my money!" Oolong complained, feeling a little wronged.
"Oolong, you're back?"
"Did you bring the wedding ring you promised me?"
"And my diamond necklace!"
"And my new clothes!"
In an instant, all the girls surrounded Oolong and started demanding things from him.
"All I wanted was a sweet, gentle girlfriend. What did I do wrong?"
