I suspect you're making things difficult for me, Shenron.
Shenron lowered his head to look at Son Gohan, remembering how Son Gohan had pulled the same stunt last time.
No. Absolutely not.
I can't let him look down on me like this.
Otherwise, what dignity will I have left?
Steeling himself, Shenron extracted a sliver of the life essence Dragon God Zalama had left within him and poured it into a Jade Bottle.
