Battle Yamcha!

After settling on a strategy, Lin Yuan lay in wait, waiting for Oolong to show himself.

Little Goku dressed up as a little girl to lure Oolong in.

Soon, the appointed time arrived.

Thud!! Thud!!!

Heavy footsteps rang out as a huge figure appeared at the entrance to the village.

Oolong had transformed into a "monster" with an enormous build, muscles all over his body, and a white suit stretched nearly to bursting.

Lin Yuan thought to himself, Good lord. With a body that huge, anyone who didn't know what was going on would definitely be scared.

Monster Oolong slowly approached Little Goku. He soon reached Goku and stretched out a hand to grab him.

"Hehehe, little beauty, come with me~~ I'll treat you very well!"

Lin Yuan had long been waiting in a tree!

He leaped down from the tree, landing lightly without making a sound.

Then he stepped forward and drove a jab into the "monster's" abdomen.

Oolong was in such pain that he nearly passed out. With a bang, the huge "monster" from moments ago turned into a little pig in green clothes.

The moment Oolong hit the ground, he shouted, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll do anything you want!" Even as he spoke, his eyes kept darting around.

Lin Yuan knew he was looking for a chance to transform and escape, so he immediately grabbed Oolong's forearm with one hand to keep him from running.

Seeing that escape was hopeless, Oolong could only obediently lead them all to his residence.

Once they arrived at Oolong's mansion, the sight inside left the villagers dumbfounded.

Not only had the little girls he kidnapped suffered no mistreatment, they had instead been living quite comfortably in his home.

Some were doing yoga, some were getting beauty treatments, some were working out, and some were simply lazing around!

In truth, Oolong was helpless—and deeply regretful!

He wished more than anything that they would be taken away sooner.

They were simply too tormenting. All he wanted was an obedient, sweet, and virtuous girl!

And so, Bulma and the others successfully obtained the sixth Dragon Ball (Bulma had started with two, plus the ones Goku, Master Roshi, Lin Yuan, and they had obtained here).

After bidding farewell to the villagers, Lin Yuan, Little Goku, and Bulma set off once more, their destination—the final Dragon Ball.

If Lin Yuan remembered correctly, the last Dragon Ball was with Ox-King. Along the way, they would also run into Yamcha.

According to the original plot, they should only have had five Dragon Balls by now. But because of Lin Yuan's arrival, the One-Star Ball had been gathered ahead of schedule...

After traveling for some time, Lin Yuan, Goku, and the others finally followed the Dragon Radar's signal to a desert.

The weather had already been hot, and combined with the desert terrain, it was simply unbearable for Miss Bulma!

Sitting behind Lin Yuan, Bulma kept shouting:

"Ahhh! I can't take it anymore! I want a bath! Let's take a break! I'm so hot! Hey, Lin Yuan, let's rest for a while, okay~~"

Unable to refuse Bulma, Lin Yuan could only stop the car and let everyone rest where they were.

"Fine, fine! We'll rest! It's getting late anyway, so we'll spend the night in the desert!"

"Yay!!!"

Bulma's cheers rang out.

At that moment, atop a white castle not far from Lin Yuan and the others, a handsome man with long black hair, dressed in a teal martial arts uniform, silently observed Lin Yuan's group through a pair of binoculars.

"They look like easy prey. They must have plenty of capsules on them. Puar! Get the Jet Mole ready!" Yamcha said to the little gray cat beside him, the corner of his lips curling upward.

Inside the Capsule House.

Bulma had just finished bathing. Wrapped in a white bath towel, a pale cleavage of modest depth was clearly visible.

She walked into the living room, picked up a bottle of iced drink, and gulped it down.

"Mm!! That feels amazing! I'm alive again!"

After finishing her drink, Bulma sat down on the sofa and looked at Lin Yuan.

Bulma had assumed Lin Yuan would definitely sneak a look at this beautiful girl's breasts.

Yet Lin Yuan's gaze was fixed outside the window!

Outside, Yamcha had already put away his jet car and stood in front of the house.

"We have a visitor. I'm heading out. Bulma, stay inside."

"Okay, got it," Bulma replied, though she felt rather unhappy inside as she looked down at her chest.

"Is my chest really that unattractive? You didn't even glance at it?"

Lin Yuan got up and went outside, with little Goku following after him. Lin Yuan did not stop him.

The only reason he had not let Bulma come out was because he did not want Yamcha to be scared unconscious by her.

He still had a mission to complete!

Little Goku spoke first.

"Who are you?"

Yamcha patted his chest and sneered. "Heh heh, I'm Yamcha, the bandit who rules this stretch of desert!"

"Since you've got a kid with you, I don't want to hurt you. If you want to live, hand over your money and Universal Capsules."

Hearing that the other man was a bandit, Goku said angrily, "So you're a bad guy!"

Lin Yuan's tone gradually turned cold, his attitude resolute. "What if I refuse?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the large sword at Yamcha's waist, calculating the coming battle in his mind.

Yamcha had a large sword, as well as a technique like Wolf Fang Fist. Even if Lin Yuan's power level was slightly higher, he absolutely could not let his guard down.

His usual fights with Goku were only sparring matches, but Yamcha was different. This guy would actually go for the kill.

Yamcha stepped forward and drew the sword from his waist. "Looks like you want money more than your lives?"

Lin Yuan did not answer Yamcha. He also stepped forward and said to Goku, "Goku, let me fight first."

Goku did not object. With his hands behind his head, he said cheerfully, "Okay!"

At that moment, a fierce gust of wind swept through.

Yellow sand filled the sky as Lin Yuan and Yamcha faced each other. The atmosphere grew increasingly tense, and battle was about to erupt!

Yamcha launched the first attack. He moved with incredible speed, appearing before Lin Yuan in the blink of an eye. Raising his sword, he slashed down at Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan reacted quickly, twisting aside and narrowly avoiding the strike.

When Yamcha's slash missed, he immediately threw a backhanded punch.

Lin Yuan leaped backward, dodging the punch and widening the distance between them.

Seeing this, Yamcha took a quick step forward, attacking at close range with a flurry of fists and kicks. Lin Yuan kept evading.

Yamcha taunted him as he attacked, "Kid, is dodging all you know how to do?"

Was dodging all he could do? Of course not. Lin Yuan was merely getting familiar with his opponent's speed and techniques.

Now!

A sharp gleam flashed through Lin Yuan's eyes.

Taking advantage of the gap in Yamcha's attack, Lin Yuan dipped low and struck Yamcha in the abdomen. Then he raised his knee, twisted his hips, and unleashed a powerful roundhouse kick straight at Yamcha.

Yamcha knew he could not dodge the blow, so he could only raise his sword in front of his chest to block it.

Clang!!

A crisp impact rang out.

Yamcha staggered back several steps. His sword flew from his hand and crashed onto the ground.

Once Yamcha regained his footing, Lin Yuan mocked, "Looks like the desert overlord isn't all that impressive. You only know how to attack mindlessly."

Yamcha's gaze turned icy, a hint of anger surfacing in his eyes. "Good, good, good. It's been a long time since I met an opponent this strong."

As he spoke, he assumed a fighting stance, his hands gradually curling into claw-like shapes.

Then a sharp gleam flashed in Yamcha's eyes as he shouted, "Wolf Fang... Fist!"

Before his words had even faded, Yamcha vanished from where he stood, leaving only an afterimage behind...

"So fast!"

Lin Yuan was shocked as he focused with all his might to track Yamcha's movements.

Fortunately, although Yamcha had become much faster, Lin Yuan could still follow him.

Yamcha lunged at Lin Yuan like a starving wolf, snapping up a high roundhouse kick aimed directly at Lin Yuan's face.

Lin Yuan did not dare to be careless and raised his arms to block.

Bang!!

The blow left Lin Yuan's arms aching, but he had no time to worry about that. He answered with a high roundhouse kick of his own.

The two exchanged blows, neither able to gain the upper hand for the moment.

As the battle continued, Lin Yuan gradually grasped Yamcha's attack rhythm.

Yamcha clawed fiercely at Lin Yuan's face. As Lin Yuan tilted his head aside to evade, he grabbed Yamcha's wrist.

Then he yanked downward, breaking Yamcha's balance, and drove his raised knee into Yamcha's chest.

The blow landed solidly. Yamcha instantly curled up like a shrimp, staggered back two steps, then dropped to one knee and began vomiting.

"Bleurgh!! Damn it!!"

Lin Yuan stopped while he was ahead and asked, "You're no match for me. So, what now? Still want to fight?"

Yamcha knew he wasn't his opponent and waved his hand. "No more, no more. Fine, you're impressive. Let's go!"

Goku immediately refused to let it go, shouting, "Hey, hey, hey! You bad bandit, you haven't fought me yet!"

They're all crazy!

Yamcha cursed inwardly, then dejectedly climbed onto his jet bike and sped away.

Even after Yamcha had left, little Goku was still shouting at the cloud of dust, "Hey, remember to fight me next time~~"
