"Really? Goku, are you guys participating too?"
On this day, at the registration site for the new World Martial Arts Tournament, Krillin's voice echoed.
Upon hearing this, Goku, who was preparing to register with Goten and Gohan, turned around.
"Krillin? Yamcha, Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu! It's been a long time! Are you here to participate in the tournament?"
Appearing in front of Goku family were his old friends and others.
Compared to Goku's excitement, Krillin and the others had a bitter expression. "Goku, are you really here to participate? Didn't you just participate in the Saiyan martial arts tournament with Vegeta?"
About a month ago, they had also attended the martial arts tournament on Planet Vegeta.
The level of that tournament had far exceeded their expectations.
And in the final match, it was a showdown between Goku and Vegeta.
In the final match, the two transformed into Super Saiyan 3 and engaged in a fierce battle. In the end, Goku emerged as the victor by a slight margin, winning the championship.
Therefore, Krillin couldn't help but feel strange and a sense of despair.
Strange because they had just participated in the tournament on Planet Vegeta, so why were they participating in the Earth's tournament again?
Despair because if Goku and Vegeta participated, the first and second place would undoubtedly be decided between them, and they would miss out on the prize money.
Fortunately, Goku said, "Of course not, this time it's Goten who's participating, I won't be competing."
"Goten?"
Everyone turned to look at Goten, who looked just like Goku when he was a child.
"Yeah, isn't there a Junior Division in this tournament? He wants to participate, and Vegeta's son Trunks will also be joining, as well as Big Brother Lin Chen's two kids. They all want to have a good competition."
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It turns out there was a Junior Division in this tournament.
That's good.
However, Krillin still looked at Gohan, who was standing beside him. "By the way, what about Gohan?"
"Oh, him? He's not participating either. He's afraid of being recognized by his classmates."
Now, everyone was completely relieved.
Goku suddenly looked at a black-haired beauty standing next to Krillin with a strange look in his eyes.
"Hey, Krillin, who is she?"
"Her? She's Android 18."
"Android 18? How come she has black hair now?"
"I didn't want people to mistake me for Miss Lazuli, so I changed my appearance," explained Android 18.
Just like in the original work, this time Android 18 also planned to participate in the tournament for the prize money.
After exchanging greetings, everyone soon ran into Vegeta family, as well as Hanasia, Lazuli, Tights, as well as the two brothers Lin Luo and Taro.
Now, except for Lin Chen, everyone was here.
They all gathered together and chatted, creating quite a lively scene.
"By the way, Goku, I heard that there are four Saiyans participating in the tournament this time. Do you know who they are?" Krillin asked.
"Saiyans?" Goku scratched his head. "I don't know, Vegeta, do you?"
Vegeta sneered, "Kakarot, among the people who have arrived, there's even your big brother Raditz! You didn't know that?"
"Oh? So Raditz is here? No wonder he visited my home a few days ago..."
"Achoo!"
In the VIP guest room of the Martial Arts Tournament, Raditz suddenly sneezed for no apparent reason.
The Saiyan next to him asked, "Raditz, did you get sick?"
"Impossible, my nose just itched a bit," Raditz chuckled.
Another Saiyan asked, "Raditz, I heard that Vegeta and Kakarot are on Earth. Do you think they'll participate in this tournament?"
"Don't worry, I've already asked. Vegeta and Kakarot won't participate. Their sons, along with prince Lin Luo and Taro, are in the Junior Division. The remaining Earthlings are no match for us Saiyans! One of us four will definitely be the champion!" Raditz reassured.
At this moment, the third Saiyan said, "Speaking of which, Raditz, that guy named Satan has come over several times. He wants us to go easy on him and let him win the championship, and he'll give us the prize money. What do you think?"
"Huh?" Raditz smirked. "We are proud Saiyans, do we need to engage in rigged matches with others? The championship is rightfully ours, so why give it to an Earthling?"
Upon hearing this, the other three burst into laughter.
Soon, the registration process was completed.
The Junior Division matches began first.
In this World Martial Arts Tournament, in addition to inviting four Saiyans to participate, the most significant feature was the addition of a Junior Division.
There were only 35 participants in the Junior Division, and their matches began first.
Just like in the original work, Trunks and Goten dominated the tournament with ease, facing almost no worthy opponents.
With Lin Luo, who had also registered, the three of them completely dominated the tournament.
There was just one odd thing that puzzled everyone: Taro, who should have also registered, mysteriously disappeared and forfeited!
Therefore, the final match came down to Trunks and Lin Luo, and Lin Luo, who was slightly older than Trunks, easily won the tournament.
Although Trunks only got the runner-up spot, Vegeta was still happy. "Hahaha! Kakarot, it seems my son is stronger than yours!"
Goku could only smile helplessly.
"Lin Luo, where's Taro?"
On the other side, Hanasia, who had come to watch the matches, anxiously questioned Lin Luo.
Lin Luo looked puzzled. "Mom Hanasia, I don't know either! Taro was here before the matches started, and then he just disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Taro's whereabouts remained a mystery until the Adult Division matches began.
Because when the official announced the final 16 participants of the Adult Division, everyone was shocked to discover that Taro was among them. His registration photo showed him in his Legendary Super Saiyan form.
Legendary Super Saiyan transformation made him appear taller and more imposing. Taro, who was just barely eligible for the Adult Division, now looked like an adult, and no one would easily mistake him for a child.
Seeing Taro on the final participant list, Krillin and others, who had hoped for prize money, felt despair.
Krillin couldn't help but glance at his wife, "18, good luck! You're probably the only one who can defeat Taro!"
"Okay," 18 nodded.
At this moment, Goku suddenly noticed two unfamiliar names on the list and asked, "Krillin, who are Shin and Kibito?"
"Which ones?"
"Those... look, those two!"
Goku pointed to the two individuals, one tall and one short, but to his surprise, the contestants he had just mentioned as Shin and Kibito were actually approaching them. What was even more unexpected was that Piccolo, who they hadn't seen before, was accompanying them.
