Senzu Bean

Seeing this, Roger immediately flew into the sky.

"Fly? Sis, he can fly?"

"Yeah, didn't he tell you?"

"No. When he comes back, I'm definitely going to interrogate him properly!"

"Interrogate?"

"I-I mean, ask him!"

Bulma gave an awkward laugh.

After leaving Bulma's house, Roger flew to Mount Paozu outside West City according to what Tights had told him.

Mount Paozu was filled with forests and wild beasts. After circling around the mountain, Roger saw a kind-looking old man carrying a bamboo-woven basket on his back. Inside the basket sat a baby with crab-like hair.

That old man was Grandpa Gohan, and the baby in his basket was none other than Son Goku.

"So he arrived safely!"

Seeing that Son Goku had safely reached Earth, Roger immediately turned and flew away.

Grandpa Gohan seemed to sense someone behind him and turned around for a glance.

But Roger had long since vanished from sight.

After flying for an unknown amount of time, Roger arrived at an uninhabited island.

Roger raised his right hand and condensed a golden energy wave in his palm, firing it into the sea.

With a thunderous boom, the golden energy wave exploded in the ocean, raising a massive wave hundreds of feet high.

Large numbers of fish, shrimp, and crabs were flung into the air along with the wave.

Roger waved his right hand forward, creating a whirlwind that carried the airborne fish and shrimp to the shore.

Of course, some fish, shrimp, and crabs were not carried over and fell back into the sea.

Roger looked at the fish, shrimp, and crabs scattered across the ground and nodded in satisfaction.

Then he suddenly thought of a question: did cats eat shrimp and crabs?

"Forget it, I'll pack them up first!"

As he spoke, Roger took out an empty Hoi-Poi Capsule and stored all the fish, shrimp, and crabs inside it.

After packing them away, Roger felt there were too few fish, shrimp, and crabs. So he blasted the sea several more times for fish before leaving the island and flying into the sky.

Korin Tower was the tallest tower on Earth.

Legend had it that anyone who climbed from the bottom of the tower to its peak using only their own strength would meet an immortal there. If they drank the sacred water bestowed by that immortal, their strength would increase severalfold. Countless people had challenged the tower, but all had failed. Some climbed for days, ran out of food along the way, lost their strength, and fell from above. Others tried to fly straight to the top in airplanes, but they also failed. Those unwilling to climb it using their own strength would never see the top of the tower.

At this moment, a cat covered in white fur stood atop Korin Tower, gazing down at the world below. It had two line-like eyes, three whiskers on each side of its mouth, three eyebrow strands on each side of its forehead, and a cane in its right paw.

He was Korin, who lived atop this Korin Tower, also known as the Cat Sage.

Suddenly, the Cat Sage saw a figure flying toward him at incredible speed.

That person was Roger.

"W-What a powerful ki!"

Feeling the ki radiating from Roger, the Cat Sage broke out in a cold sweat.

Although Roger had done his best to suppress his ki, using the Flying Technique still caused some of it to leak out.

Roger's battle power had already reached three million. Even a casually released trace of his aura was enough to terrify the Cat Sage.

"He isn't coming here, is he?"

"Found it!"

As Roger spoke, he used Instant Transmission and appeared inside Korin Tower.

"Ah!"

The Cat Sage immediately stumbled back several steps in fright.

"Hello, my name is Roger. You're Korin, right?"

"Yes, I'm Korin. Did you come here for the Ultra Divine Water?"

"No. I came here to trade for some Senzu Beans!"

"Senzu Beans?"

"Yeah!"

"But... how did you know I have Senzu Beans?"

"I have the ability to foresee the future!"

"Foresee the future? You mean you learned I had Senzu Beans through your foresight?"

"Yeah!"

As Roger spoke, he took out a Capsule Corp. capsule, pressed its switch, and tossed it onto the ground.

Bang!

Amid a puff of white smoke, a huge pile of fish, shrimp, and crabs appeared on the ground.

"Fish!"

The Korin Hermit immediately became extremely excited when he saw the sea fish.

Though he had lived for more than eight hundred years, fish was still his favorite food.

Roger smiled and nodded.

"Korin Hermit, how about I trade these fish for some Senzu Beans?"

"Sure. How many do you want?"

"Three jars!"

"Th-Three jars? Do you know how many years I have to save up to fill one jar?"

"Three years!"

"That's not very long!"

"What do you mean, not very long? You want to trade so few fish for three jars of my Senzu Beans? No way!"

"Oh, so you think there aren't enough fish. Don't worry, I still have three more capsules. The fish in each of them won't be any less than what was in that one!"

"Really?"

"Of course!"

"Fine. Give me those three capsules. If they really contain as many fish as you say, I'll give you three jars of Senzu Beans!"

"Deal!"

As the Korin Hermit spoke, he looked around.

"This place is a little small. Why don't you come down beneath the tower with me?"

"Beneath the tower?"

The Korin Hermit nodded and pushed aside a wooden board.

Once the board was moved, a ladder was revealed beneath it. At the bottom of the ladder was something like a cellar.

Of course, it was not a cellar, but the interior of Korin Tower.

"Whoosh..."

"Tap..."

Roger flew down into Korin Tower, while the Korin Hermit slowly climbed down the ladder.

However, he soon reached the bottom.

Seeing this, Roger immediately took out three capsules, activated them, and threw them onto the ground.

Bang!

With three puffs of white smoke, three small mountain-like piles of fish, shrimp, and crabs appeared on the ground.

The Korin Hermit licked his lips.

"Roger, I'll go get the Senzu Beans for you right now!"

"Alright!"

Roger nodded.

A moment later, the Korin Hermit carried three jars of Senzu Beans over to Roger.

"Roger, here are the Senzu Beans you wanted!"

"Good!"

As he spoke, Roger took out an empty capsule and stored the three large jars of Senzu Beans inside it.

The Korin Hermit said, "These capsules really are convenient!"

"Yeah. If there's nothing else, Korin Hermit, I'll be on my way."

"Alright!"

Seeing this, Roger immediately left Korin Tower and flew toward Kami's Lookout above it.

Just as Roger neared Kami's Lookout, dark clouds suddenly filled the sky, and countless bolts of lightning crashed down from them.

"Lightning?"

Looking at the incoming lightning, Roger immediately formed a protective barrier around his body.

The lightning struck the barrier, coursed around its surface once, and then vanished.
