Summary: Bulma didn't meet Goku in Mt. Pazo. How does this affect the entire history of the Dragon Ball Cannon? Read to find out.
.
On planet Earth - specifically on a certain part of the mass of land that existed on the planet - there was an expanse of land consisting of a forest, meadows, and mountainside deep within the countryside.
The area of the wilderness was known as Mt. Pazou.
And as Legends and rumors would have it, demons and other creatures were rampant.
However…
One person was discouraged by this rumors.
"If I follow this path, I'll reach the Dragon Ball in no time!"
She was an extremely attractive girl with a mane of purple hair ,in a braided ponytail with a single violet strand, a pair of ocean blue eyes, a height of 162 cm and an athletically curvy build garbed in a very short yellow dress which showed off her long legs while having the name Bulma printed on it, a pair of white socks and finally a pair of blue sneakers and at the moment, she was currently riding a vehicle with the Capsule Corp logo printed on it and a circular gray device with radar like screen sat between the handlebars of the said vehicle in question that began to bleep fiercely which caused the girl to smile and slam hard on the accelerator but unfortunately, however, as she sped down the road, she couldn't stop herself from colliding with a lone figure.
*!CRASH!*
The next thing the girl knew was waking up to a voice and the smell of sweet tea; and as she sat up and her hand immediately went to her waist.
''Your Dragon Balls are in the kitchen." it said. "You can retrieve them when you leave.''
It came from a young man with a mane of gravity defying spiky blonde hair, a pair of cerulean blue eyes, a trio of whisker marks on each cheeks, and a tanned skin. He looked to be a few years older to her, and he was garbed in a black t-shirt with a black and orange jump suit pants and a pair of dark blue sandal shoes.
She honked her horn to warn him out of the road only for a bright light to envelop her.
''Who are you and how did I get here?"
Of course, the young lady was of course confused and still a bit dazed from the accident.
"I'm sorry about that, you swerved and ended up crashing to avoid me. Your motorcycle isn't really usable anymore and seeing as it was kind of my fault I sort of felt bad about what happened so I brought you to my home in the countryside." He went to the kitchen to retrieve the kettle of tea and when he came back, he began setting up a cup and preparing the tea. "If you don't mind, though, I'm curious as to what a young girl like you would want with the Dragon Balls."
"Considering you know them by name," the girl stated. "You must also know of the legend right?"
Naruto nodded and with that he began to recount the legend he heard when he arrived to this world. "Seven Dragon Balls in total, each with a different number of stars drawn on them. Gather all of them and when you summon the eternal dragon, Shenlong, by its name, as long as it's within its power, the dragon god will grant any wish your heart desires."
"Yeah. They say the last person who gathered 'em became a king." Bulma blushed, imagining a lavish fantasy, before she shook her head. "Me? I don't really need that any of that as I'm already rich. What I'm gonna use them for, instead, is to wish for the perfect boyfriend!"
"'You could wish for anything and you go for something so selfish?" Naruto knew his words ignited the girls temper but he didn't care. "I mean, come on, with all the good a wish could do for the world, you go for perfect boyfriend? Have you ever considered the fact that you might not end up being the perfect girlfriend to this guy?"
"Look whoever you are, I have places to go so I'll be taking my dragon balls and leaving now, not that this conversation wasn't engaging and all." Bulma tried, as hard as possible, not to let the words from the blond reach her. "You wouldn't happen to one would you?"
''Oh you mean this.'' the spiky haired blond reached behind him to the box on the ground and pulled out a Dragon Ball with four orange stars on them. ''This was a gift given to me by a man called Son Gohan. I found myself wondering these woods when I first arrived and he took me in. He actually left to go visit his old master and won't exactly be back for quite a while, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I left and came back with my own description of the legend itself in action."
"You," the girl blinked. "You want to come with me?"
"Of course I do, any adventure beats sitting around this old house," the blond sipped another cup of tea. "But I'm curious, though. How have you been tracking the Dragon balls? You don't really seem to be the 'hunting' type."
''Well I'm not just a cute face.'' Bulma boasted before looking for something then notices it on the table. ''Aah here we go. My Dragon Ball Locator.''
It looked like a stopwatch with a green screen screen and when she clicked the button on the north end, the screen came to life, showing the images of several orange dots with three closely knitted together, and four far apart from each other.
"When I first noticed that the balls give off a faint Electromagnetic Pulse," she explained, ignoring Naruto blinking as she stated those words. "I realised that it could be tracked so I got busy and made the Dragon Radar! It locks onto the unique energy signatures of the Dragon Balls thus making it easier for me to find! the three that are grouped together would be the Dragon Balls in our location obviously, and the one closest to our position is…" the purple haired girl pressed the button a few times. "1200 Kilometers to the west."
''Damn… that's a journey in itself." the blond stated, placing the cup on the tray. "But I don't really mind the exercise. Name's Naruto, by the way. Naruto Uzumaki. I figured that if we're about to be partners, it's best we get introductions out of the way."
"Bulma," the girl introduced, quietly mumbling to herself. "Bulma Briefs."
"Briefs and Bloomers, really?!" Naruto laughed. "You're literally named after underwears!.Did your ancestors loose a bet or something?"
''I didn't pick it okay!'' She snapped in response, "And I'll have you know the names of the Briefs family trails all the way back to my great grandpa Boxer Briefs! And besides…" the girl smirked. "I'm not the one who's named after a topping you find in food."
"Yeah!?" the blond shot back. "Well my name also means Maelstrom so, ha!"
The pair glared at each other until suddenly both burst out in laughter and did so for a while until they both finally calmed down, and, after they did, the blond noted from his place how dark it was outside and turned to the purple haired girl.
"Y 'know, it's getting pretty late outside." he said. "So why don't you spend the night and we can begin the search for the remaining Dragon Balls in the morning?"
"Sure," Bulma shrugged. "I don't mind, but I don't plan exactly on spending the night in a strangers house when I've got my Dino Caps!"
"I don't mind," Naruto shrugged. "Just so you know, I'm kind of an early morning guy so expect me to be up between 5 - 8 am. Best time for me to get some warm-up training in before I start my actual work out."
"Alright, I'll keep that in mind."
And with that said, the pair officially solidified their partnership, completely unaware that they weren't the only ones looking for the seven special orbs along with the fact that like them, their apparent rivals had their very own Dragon Radar.

Authors Note: Well, after a long HIATUS, I decided to start afresh with a brand new Dragon Ball/Naruto Story that's heavily inspired by Kyuubi16's story, Break Through the Limitbut with a few differences like for instance, despite being from the Naruto-universe, Naruto is Part-Saiyan, why? Because the Shinobi World, Kaguya Era, is where Bardock was sent to in the end of his fight with Frieza meaning he ended up banging Kaguya who gave birth to Hagoromo and Hamura who gave birth to their respective clans who now have the Saiyan G-gnome running through them and as a part Saiyan, his fighting potential is more than Goku and Gohan but less than Goku Jr. but as I said, Naruto is a Saiyan meaning that like every Saiyan, Naruto can go Super Saiyan although this also means that every member of the Uchiha, Senju, Uzumaki and Hyuga Clan can go Super Saiyan also but for now, I'm limiting that particular transformation to Naruto, and Sasuke… eventually.
Authors Note II: Speaking of Goku, our favourite Saiyan didn't end up on Earth but he's pretty much alive and well however, he won't meet Naruto and the Z-fighters until very later on in the series meaning that for now, Naruto is going to take Goku's place on Earth and he'll be, kind of, Vegeta's main obstacle to becoming stronger.
Authors Note III: Naruto ended up meeting Gohan following his battle with Sasuke at the VOTE when Sasuke was running to Orochimaru. He knows all the techniques prior to his trip with Jiraiya and possibly more thanks to his Photographic Memory and intuitive learning - which he got from his Saiyan DNA - and no, not every member of the Hyuuga, Senju and of course the Uzumaki and Uchiha clan has this gift.
Authors Note IV: the pairing is going to be Naruto, Chichi, Bulma and Android 18.
