After that day where I had almost plunged to my death 8 months had passed-
And me being the leader had grown in strength even more- even the bonds between us all further increased.
Master even doted on me due to how much effort I put within my training to be the best.
And yeah my bond with Bulma had also increased as we had moved up to the holding hands level.
I had done it all, to be honest, construction work with my bare hands.
Swimming with rabid sharks trying to consume me as a meal.
Jogging with carnivorous T-Rex's, Jumping in Quicksand to test my reaction time.
Almost dying from falling off a ledge with the height greater than even Everest.
Running around dinosaur-infested jungles- I had done everything.
And each thing I did wasn't just once but every day for the past 8 months in order to build up my strength and according to cannon.
I was an anomaly due to how much strength I possessed within this time of the story.
And due to my excelling and hardworking nature with all the training.
Master gave us a few days off from training to explore the outside world.
But instead of actually giving us a day off before the tournament he gave us a mission to:
"Far Far away to the west is where the sleeping princess is located.
I wish for you all to search and find the sleeping princess.
As her beauty is said to be unrivalled even the immortals are envious of her beauty, you got that!"
"As you all know by now I have a corn addiction and I'm hoping that through the sleeping princess my corn addiction will end!"
"Master but you've never had corn at all since we trained here for the eight months-
Are you okay, and that side is not west that's south- are you sure your feeling well?"
"Shush Goku, Krillin will know what I am talking about especially that VPN nuisance, and I hope you help him out Yamcha-
Also make sure to take care of your team, as the princess is located within the Devils Hand.
It is five mountains that make up a big hand- and it is rumoured that the Devil Lucifer has lived within that mountain range for over 5 Million years before Age 0."
"Within the Devils Hand is the Majin-Jo castle commonly referred to as the Demon King Castle.
I want you all to venture within this castle and save the Princess whose beauty is so unrivalled that even Lucifer uses her as a token of luck!"
"Bye Bye, and make sure your all safe, young disciples."
After this Bulma popped out a Hoi Poi capsule so that we could fly within that direction.
It was a yellow spacious jet that we all could fit into, but when we were about to hop in Master stopped us:
"Wait, my students, I am giving you this task to see how far you have come from your previous martial skills.
And using this jet will not allow me to assess you, for this, I recommend you swim the whole journey until you hit land!"
"But Master come on, we only have a few days before the Tenkaichi Budokai, what if we injure ourselves."
"It doesn't matter I know you won't injure yourselves you'll be just fine- no need to overthink this-
Yamcha now go and find the sleeping beauty!"
———_______———
"Come on let's go- Krillin, Goku, Bulma!"
Said I as I'd sprinted before diving into the ocean-facing the far west.
I slowly moved my hands forward as my legs flapped about.
It was enjoyable as the sun was shining down on us causing the water to heat up about 19 Degrees Celsius.
And behind me were Goku and Krillin, while keeping up with me was Bulma, as we both tried to see who was faster within the water
It seems Goku and Krillin were also having a competition as Goku zoomed straight past us.
But it seems Krillin didn't want to be outdone by Goku and also sped up reaching a high speed until I realised he had a trauma of sharks, and I saw a shark chasing him from behind.
But me and Bulma took it slow as to keep our energy stored for greater tasks.
Soon we had reached land and with one leap from the sea, we all hopped onto the luscious greenery.
Near us was some kind of mountains that Goku jumped onto as to beat us to the devil mountain range, though I feared he would hurt himself.
Seeing this Krillin wasn't laidback anymore as he ran straight to the bridge in front to let us join the other mountain.
And seeing that there were no more mountains he could leap on, Goku went back to our line but Krillin was in front.
And when he had gotten to the front the little pachinko ball cut off the ropes of the wobbling bridge.
With no hesitation, I grabbed Bulma to my right with Goku on my left, before I used my full speed and bounded off the ground reaching the other side of the mountain.
Though it seems we would need a jet to go home.
And after that, I let the two down as we had hit a roadblock that being a large mountain.
So to combat this obstacle we all began to climb the mountain as we used our strength to punch holes through it so we could have some grip.
And the one who won the mountain climb was Goku as he had found he could just spin his tail and he could be a little copter that flew upwards.
And when we had reached the top I finally saw the Devils' hand.
As five mountains were erected up as they looked like a finger pointing upwards.
And as soon as we came here it was like the whole weather had changed as it had become desolate with fog and dark crows echoed out their sounds as they littered up into the sky.
