King Kai's Defeat
Goku used the instant transmission and went to King Kai's planet. He walked over to King Kai, who was sleeping in his hammock. 'Oh man, now what? How do I get King Kai to do all that paperwork?' Goku tried to remain calm, although his mind was trying its best to think of something good to say.
"Hey, King Kai, wake up, I have to talk to you." King Kai didn't wake up, so Goku decided to scream in his ear. "HEY KING KAI, WAKE UP!"
He woke up in a bad mood and screamed back at Goku, "HOW DARE YOU INTERRUPT ME WHEN I'M SLEEPING! DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S BAD FOR MY HEALTH?!"
Goku ignored King Kai and continued, "I NEED TO ASK YOU A FAVOUR... IT'S KINDA... IMPORTANT... NOT REALLY... SORT OF... YOU KNOW..."
"GOKU, WOULD YOU PLEASE STOP SHOUTING IN MY EAR?"
"Sorry King Kai, I forgot. Anyway, you see, Cell escaped from the Home For Infinite Losers, and the only way to get him back there is to disintegrate him since he..."
"He refuses to regenerate every time you blast him. Yeah, I know all about it. You told me, remember?"
"Well I was wondering if you could do the paperwork for us? Pikkon and I need to keep training for the next Other World martial arts tournament."
King Kai thought about it. 'Let's see.... If I do all the paperwork, then Goku can get even stronger, which means that he might be able to beat Pikkon again and win lots of money, which then means that I can finally get that car that I've always wanted. But I don't think it's worth it.'
"No. I won't do it. Unless..."
"Unless what, King Kai?"
"Unless you beat me in a joking contest."
"A joking contest? You've got to be kidding!"
"Nope, I'm dead serious. Puns and jokes only. No riddles. Bubbles and Gregory will be the judges. The first one who can't think of a joke loses and has to do all the paperwork."
"Oh man, that's not fair!"
"If you don't do it, I won't do the paperwork."
"Fine."
Goku and King Kai sat down at a table, and Gregory and Bubbles sat at another table. "Welcome to the annual joking contest. Today we have the challenger Goku against the reigning champion, King Kai!" No one except King Kai stood up and cheered, and so he shut up and sat back down.
"Challenger, are you ready?" Goku gulped, then nodded.
"Champion, are you ready?" King Kai nodded confidently.
"Three, two, one, go!"
King Kai started with the classics. "Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side!"
Goku caught on and said, "Why did the one handed man cross the road? To get to the second hand shop!"
"Why did the pigeon cross the road? Because it wanted to be like the chicken!"
"Knock knock, who's there? Lettuce. Lettuce who? Lettuce all in, it's cold out here!"
"Knock knock, who's there? Cargo who? Cargo beep beep!"
"What's a chicken way? About one kilogram!"
"Doctor doctor, I only have fifty nine seconds left to live! Wait a minute!"
"What did the boss say to the rocket? You're fired!"
"What did the grape say when the elephant sat on it? Nothing, it just gave a little wine!"
Goku was running out of jokes. He thought hard, and King Kai had an enormous grin on his face. "Remember Goku, if you lose, you have to do all the paperwork!" Goku was struggling, and then he said the first thing that came to his head.
"Knock knock, who's there? Goke. Goke who? (It's supposed to sound like Goku) Are you talking to me?"
"Why do potatoes make good detectives? Because they keep their eyes peeled!"
"Um... what do you get if you divide the circumference of a pumpkin by its diameter? Pumpkin pi!"
"What did the carrot say to the wheat? Lettuce rest, I'm feeling beet!"
"What did the flour say when it fell down? I'm self raising!"
"Can February March? No, but April May!"
"What do you call it when worms take over the world? Global Worming!"
"Why did the tomato turn red? Because it saw the salad dressing!"
"What did the traffic light say to the driver? Would you mind? I'm changing!"
King Kai started to run out of jokes. 'Come on, King Kai, you have to think of one. Otherwise you're going to be spending the next ten years filling out forms!' Bubbles and Gregory started counting down.
"Ten."
"Ohh-ah." (That was Bubbles trying to say nine in monkey language)
"Eight."
"Ah ooh oh ooh ah." (That was Bubbles trying to say seven in monkey language)
"Wait! Let me think!" screamed King Kai, losing his concentration.
"Six."
"Ooh ah."
"Four...."
"Ah ooh ohh."
"Two..."
"Ooh..."
"Time's up! Goku is declared the winner!"
King Kai screamed, walked away from the table and fell to his knees. "NOOOO!!!! How could this happen to me? I'm the King of jokes!" Goku walked over to King Kai and tried to comfort him. "It's not that bad, King Kai. We can have another competition when you finish all your paperwork. But now I have to go back and tell King Yemma and Pikkon the news. See you in ten years!"
Goku teleported to King Yemma's place and told him about King Kai's offer and then went back to Pikkon.
"Guess what Pikkon. I beat King Kai in a joking competition and now he's going to do the paperwork."
"Good. That means I can finally finish off Cell."
