Dragon Ball: Reborn as a Saiyan, They Covet Me Chapter 4

She realized immediately that this world was already slightly different from the one she had come from.

In her past life, Son Gohan had died, but in this life, he was still alive; having someone to raise the child naturally meant he could be taught many things.

Therefore, this Goku seemed very sensible.

In her past life, after the battle between Goku and Vegeta, Son Goku had understood the cause of his grandfather's death.

Saiyans would transform into Great Apes whenever they saw a full moon.

And as a low-class Saiyan warrior, Son Goku would lose consciousness upon transforming into a Great Ape.

Thus, when he lost control and transformed into a Great Ape as a child, he had accidentally killed his grandfather, Son Gohan.

Bulma and their other friends naturally knew this secret as well.

During the battle against Pilaf and his gang, Goku had transformed into a Great Ape once.

When he woke up, he had absolutely no memory of the time he spent in his Great Ape form.

Later, at the martial arts tournament, Goku transformed into a Great Ape once again.

If it hadn't been for Master Roshi using a Kamehameha to blast the moon away, who knew what kind of damage Goku might have caused by losing control in front of so many people!

Hmm, it was different from her past life, but it didn't seem bad at all.

Bulma snapped out of her deductions and smiled, "Sorry to have bothered you!"

Goku naturally noticed that Bulma seemed to be contemplating something.

After all, she was just a girl with no combat power to speak of.

It was normal to be a little guarded when traveling away from home.

So, Goku didn't rush her.

A moment later, Goku brought Bulma to the top of the mountain.

A small house came into view.

To give his grandfather a heads-up, Son Goku shouted as soon as they reached the summit:

"Grandpa, Grandpa!

I've brought a girl home as a guest!"

A short while later, Son Goku, Bulma, and Son Gohan sat around the table.

A Four-Star Dragon Ball sat in the center of the table.

Son Gohan took a deep breath and said, "Goku, this world is magnificent. There are many powerful martial artists down the mountain, and you should go and spar with them properly. You aren't a child anymore, and you've trained to be quite strong. Go down the mountain with Bulma and gain some experience."

Son Goku looked at Son Gohan with some reluctance and asked, "Then, what about you, Grandpa? Will you be left alone on the mountain?"

Son Gohan smiled and said, "Don't worry about Grandpa. Fortuneteller Baba came to see me a while ago. She said she was looking to hire a few security guards; there's no age limit as long as you can fight, the monthly salary is one hundred thousand, and it comes with full social insurance and a housing fund. Plus, if you do a good job, you can even get promoted to work as a boiler operator for Grand Supreme Elder Lord. If you go down the mountain, Grandpa will be heading off to work; job opportunities like this are hard to come by."

Bulma naturally understood that Son Gohan was supporting his departure, and her eyes brightened significantly.

"They provide full social insurance and a housing fund? That's really not bad; it's much better than farming here."

Son Gohan looked at Bulma, then turned his gaze toward Goku.

He smiled and said, "Yes, Bulma is right. Finding a good job is much better than farming."

"Goku, Bulma is a girl, and you are a man."

"You must protect girls in the future, do you understand?"

Son Goku nodded.

"Mm, I understand, Grandpa! I will definitely protect her well."

Son Gohan nodded with satisfaction. "Alright, all good things must come to an end. No matter how much we say, we must eventually part ways."

He looked at Bulma, picked up the Four-Star Dragon Ball, and placed it into her hands.

"Since you are searching for the Dragon Balls, take this one with you! Goku has a large appetite, so please bear with him in the future."

Bulma excitedly took the Dragon Ball and bowed deeply.

"Tha-thank you, Grandpa! I will take good care of Goku too!"

Chapter 5: While He Is Still Naive

Finally, Goku accompanied Bulma on their journey to find the Dragon Balls.

However, as Bulma sped along on her motorcycle, Goku followed alongside the vehicle at a light jog, carrying a heavy turtle shell on his back.

After traveling for a while, Bulma couldn't help but ask:

"Hey! Goku, isn't it too tiring to run like that? Are you sure you don't want to hop on?"

Son Goku replied while running, "I won't get on. I want to run more; I'll treat it as training! Grandpa said there are many powerful people out there. Only by working hard enough can I become stronger."

Bulma watched Goku training so diligently and was left speechless.

With Son Gohan's presence, the Goku of this life was completely different from the one in her previous life.

Not only was he much more sensible, but he was also training even harder than before.

Bulma initially wanted to persuade him otherwise.

However, thinking of the enemies that would appear one after another and the crises that would descend time and again in the future, Bulma gave up on stopping him.

It was better to sweat more now than to bleed later.

Besides, this little Goku seemed to enjoy training.

However, one thing worried her: this Goku seemed to be training too desperately.

Although Bulma knew that after participating in the World Martial Arts Tournament, he would become absurd enough to swim across the ocean, seeing such a young Goku working so hard made her worry for him.

She didn't know if his Saiyan bloodline could withstand such intense training at such a young age!

The two traveled further and further, soon losing sight of Baozi Mountain.

After the sun set, the night quickly turned dark.

Bulma stopped the vehicle.

"Goku, are you hungry? It's already dark, let's stay here for the night!"

Mentioning hunger, Goku finally stopped and rubbed his stomach.

"Grumble, grumble..."

Sure enough, as soon as he stopped running, his stomach began to growl.

Son Goku scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I've been running for most of the day, I wondered what I had forgotten! I was so focused on chasing you that I forgot to eat..."

Bulma smiled faintly, got off the bike, and packed it into a capsule.

Then, she surveyed the surrounding environment and said:

"Hmm, not bad. This spot is quite flat; it's perfect for placing a house. Goku, stand behind me. I'm going to throw it now."

Knowing it was a Capsule House, Goku consciously stepped behind Bulma.

As Bulma opened the capsule and tossed it, a loud "bang!" echoed, and a large, dome-shaped house appeared before them.

Bulma looked at Goku.

"Well? Isn't the Capsule House I brought quite impressive?"

Son Goku nodded.

"Yeah, it's great. It's truly amazing."

Bulma asked curiously, "Eh? You don't look surprised at all. Do you know about Capsule Houses?"

Son Goku nodded. "Yeah. When Grandpa took me to the city, I saw them at the Portable House Shop. It's a pity we didn't have enough money, otherwise we would have bought one to keep on the mountain. Later, Grandpa and I bought some materials, chopped down trees, and rebuilt our house ourselves."

Hearing this, Bulma had a sudden realization.

"Oh, I see."

Bulma continued, "Alright, come on in. You've been running around all day; you're covered in sweat and your clothes are filthy."
