Dragon Ball: Reborn as a Saiyan, They Covet Me

A circle of police officers stood around her, their guns pointed directly at her.

"Launch, you're under arrest!"

"Stay still and don't ask for trouble!"

"Don't move, or we'll shoot!"

The officers spoke while keeping a wary eye out for any retaliation, gradually closing in on her.

Launch was terrified; she clenched her fair fists and held them up to her mouth.

Her long, pale legs kicked against the ground as she retreated, and she cried out in fear, "Who are you people?"

The officers continued their advance.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"You're still asking who we are?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"You robbed an entire street! Surrender immediately!"

Seeing that the officers were about to apprehend her, Launch let out a piercing scream.

"Help!"

"Someone, please save me!"

Son Goku and Krillin had already arrived directly above Launch.

Krillin remarked, "Oh my, that woman calling for help is quite beautiful. She seems to fit Master's taste."

Son Goku nodded. "Yeah, I'm going to save her!"

Krillin felt a bit nervous.

"But, everyone around her has guns. We can't beat them, can we?"

"Don't be afraid, it'll be fine!"

With that, Goku steered the Flying Nimbus and dove down toward Launch.

Krillin grabbed onto Goku in a panic.

The next instant, the two of them landed right beside Launch.

The surrounding police immediately shouted, "Who are you?"

"Don't interfere with official business!"

Son Goku pointed at Launch and stated bluntly, "I'm here to save her."

Krillin noticed the uniforms the men were wearing.

Guessing they were police officers and that they were seemingly arresting the woman, he immediately jumped off Goku and hid behind a nearby rock.

He pointed at Goku and said, "Officers, just to be clear, this has nothing to do with me! I don't even know him!"

The lead officer was instantly enraged. "Save her? Do you even know who she is? She just robbed an entire street! Kid, if you dare cause any more trouble, we'll arrest you too!"

Son Goku cracked his knuckles and said, "Sorry, everyone!"

No sooner had he spoken than Goku lunged forward, taking down the surrounding officers with a few quick punches and kicks.

Seeing the police who had been trying to capture her knocked to the ground, Launch's eyes brightened significantly.

Launch said, "Wow, your martial arts are amazing!"

"Thank you for saving me. I really don't know how to repay you."

Just then, Krillin rushed out.

"Hehehe, you're welcome, it was nothing. Why don't you come with us?"

Launch asked curiously, "Didn't you say this had nothing to do with you?"

Krillin replied, "That was a tactic! I was playing weak to lower their guard."

"Oh!"

And so, Launch sat on the Flying Nimbus, I returned to Kame House with Son Goku and Krillin.

Kame House.

Seeing the Flying Nimbus return with Son Goku and Krillin, Chi-Chi ran over in excitement.

"Goku, you're back!"

"Yeah, I'm back. Where's Master Roshi?"

"He's inside the house."

Son Goku flipped off the Flying Nimbus, and Krillin hopped down from behind him.

As they spoke, Chi-Chi noticed Launch sitting on the Flying Nimbus.

"Huh? Goku, who is she?"

Seeing the adorable Chi-Chi, Launch flipped down from the Flying Nimbus.

"Hello there, I'm Launch."

Chi-Chi looked confused and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Launch replied, "I don't even know why I'm here. Those two brought me."

As she spoke, Launch looked at Krillin and Son Goku and asked, "I haven't asked yet—is there a reason you brought me here?"

Krillin immediately explained to Launch, "It's nothing, we just wanted you to stay here for a while."

Launch didn't seem confused; instead, she said excitedly, "Then I'm saved! I was just being chased!"

Krillin was stunned.

"Chased?"

"The police who were chasing you earlier were real—they weren't bad guys, were they?"

Launch blinked her large eyes. "No, they were just the police!"

Krillin asked, "Then why were the police chasing you?"

Launch took out a capsule and pressed the button.

A large bundle appeared.

When the zipper opened, it revealed a pile of sparkling jewelry and thick stacks of cash.

"Because I robbed an entire street."

Looking at the massive fortune and hearing the word "robbed" come out of the mouth of the cute, quiet Launch, Krillin's mouth twitched.

"Are you kidding me?"

"You're a rich girl, aren't you?"

"I can tell just by looking at you that you aren't that kind of person!"

Launch shook her head. "I'm not kidding. I've even robbed trains and banks. You'd better be careful—whenever I sneeze, my temper changes completely."

Just then, Master Roshi saw Launch and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Wow, she's beautiful!"

He looked at Krillin and Son Goku. "You two have passed the test!"

Hearing that Son Goku had passed, Chi-Chi happily ran to his side.

"Congratulations, Goku!"

Son Goku gave an awkward smile and said nothing.

Chi-Chi looked at Master Roshi, and his lecherous expression made her realize everything in an instant.

A look of dissatisfaction appeared on Chi-Chi's small face.

She whispered to Son Goku, "I was wondering why you didn't take me for the test. So this is what he meant by a test. It seems Master Roshi is just a perverted old man. Goku, don't you dare learn any bad habits from him!"

Son Goku said, "Chi-Chi, don't speak ill of Master Roshi."

"Although he is lecherous, he is a good person."

"Oh, I see!" Chi-Chi nodded.

While Chi-Chi and Goku whispered to each other, Master Roshi greeted Launch:

"Welcome, welcome! I am Master Roshi."

Upon seeing Master Roshi, Launch immediately greeted him: "It is a pleasure to meet you, Master Roshi.

Your disciples saved me during a crisis, and you have even taken me in. I am truly grateful!"

Master Roshi's expression brightened.

"They saved you?"

"Yes, their martial arts are truly impressive. You must have taught them well!" Launch said.

Master Roshi immediately chuckled: "Hehehe, you flatter me, you flatter me! I haven't even started teaching them yet!

However, the lessons are about to begin. Would you like to learn martial arts as well?"

Launch was taken aback.

"Learn martial arts?

But I am a girl; I probably wouldn't be able to learn it, right?"

Master Roshi immediately explained: "No, I don't mean for you to work as hard as they do.

Just learning the basics will suffice.

Martial arts can be learned in a relaxed manner.

Authentic martial arts can cultivate the body and the mind; it is extremely beneficial for one's physical and mental health!"
