Chapter 10
To the Tournament!
"I don't think this a good idea Bulma, there will be a lot of people there, it's not safe!" said Gokou on the phone.
"Don't worry Son-Kun, the only thing you have to do is to be at the tournament in three months, see you there" said Bulma and she hang up the phone,
"Now let's back to work!"
Bulma was working in a new project for the tournament she had found a way for the z- senchi to participate at the tournament using their full power without anyone getting hurt. She spent the three months working on it while the guys were getting prepared for the big event. Vegeta was training harder than ever so was the rest of the z-senchi. They were all excited by the idea of fighting once more at the world martial art tournament.
Two days before the big event.
"What? No way I will not serve as chauffeur for those idiots" said Vegeta angry when he learned that he will have to drive the others to the tournament.
"You know that I'll do it if I didn't have to leave for the preparations, please Vegeta after all I am doing this for you"
"It was your idea not mines. I don't have to fight him there!"
"Oh common it'll be fun"
"I refuse"
Six hours before the tournament begin
"I can't believe I am doing this" said Vegeta while driving to master Roshi's Island where he was going to pick up the others. Everybody was at master Roshi waiting for their ride.
"Man this going to be fun" said Gokou excited
"Well I hope that everything works as Bulma plan" said Krillin
"I think that's her" said Shiatsu pointing at the hydroplane that was coming in their direction. It land near the Island where everyone was standing waiting, the big door opened for them but no one moved, sitting at the command was Vegeta "Well what are you waiting for an invitation!"
"Hi Vegeta what are you doing here? "Where's Bulma?"
"The woman couldn't make it; I'll going to bring you and the others to the tournament"
"Alright!" said Gokou jumping in the plane and took the co-pilot sit the others followed each taking the first sit they found. They were all chatting loudly and Vegeta wasn't happy about al that racket
"Common Vegeta can that thing go faster, you are driving like a old lady!" said Gokou
"A old lady eh, so you want to go faster as your wish then" he said smirking He pressed a red button in the table of command than a new set of commends appeared and all the plane started transforming
"Ladies and gentlemen this is your captain speaking, I am introducing you to nimbus three thousand, everybody hold on to your false teeth because is going to be a hell of a ride! Mhuahaha" said Vegeta starting the ignition of the turbo jet; the plane was looking more as a rocket than a plane.
They started flying at an incredible speed that everyone was pushing back on their seat all mouth opened, everyone was screaming now as Vegeta piloted the jet like a stunt man making the plane zigzagging in all direction making it flied sometimes at high or at low altitude, he flied between mountains and forest. The two last saiya-jins was the only one who enjoyed the ride. He finally landed at the Island where the tournament is going to take place. Everybody got out of the plane at high speed,
"What a great ride Vegeta that's what I call flying! I didn't have so much fun since last time I ride my nimbus cloud!"
"Remind me to never ride with Vegeta again!" said Gohan
Puar got out of the plane only to fell down on the ground Krillin was kissing it, while Yamcha was throwing up somewhere, Tien and Shiatsu were pale :) and the rest of the passengers had passed out long time ago.
Half hour later everybody was back to normal and was working toward the tickets booth
"The ticket is 30 zeni for adults 10 zeni for children spectators and 50 for participants in the tournament" said the cashier
"Hey guys to you have any money on you" said Yamcha to the others,
"Man I am broke" said Krillin
"you are always!" added Oolong Everybody was looking at their empty wallet
"oh that's great we can't enter because you muscle head didn't bring any money!" said Chichi
"Hey Vegeta have you any money on you?" asked Gokou
"No but I got this thing" he said pulling a credit card out of his wallet
"All right let's buy our tickets now you guys Vegeta is going to pay!"
"What?" said Vegeta in protest, everyone had bought their tickets and the cashier charged it on Vegeta's credit card
"Why do I have to pay for your tickets?"
"Well one we didn't have the money to pay for it, and two Bulma always take care of the bill"
"You are nothing than a pack of parasites!" said the prince disgusted
"Look who's talking" said Yamcha
"Are you challenging me scar face!"
"I am not scared of you monkey boy!" they have both took their fighting stance
"Cut it out you guys"
"You want to be disqualified or what"
"Yeah save it for the ring".
"Hi guys" said Bulma walking toward the group with her son in her arm
"Glad you made it"
"Hi Bulma you look as beautiful as ever, wanna go for a moonlight walk"
"Watch it old man!" "Hey Bulma what's up with the baby, are you babysitting or something!"
"No silly this is my son Trunks!"
"You didn't tell us you had a son, Yamcha"
"I don't" "You mean this isn't your son" said Gokou lifting the boy up in the air, the boy was laughing happy for going up and down.
"So who's son is he?" asked Gokou to Bulma,
"Guess"
"M-mm, let see" like to give Gokou a clue the boy frowned
"Aaaaah don't tell me he's Vegeta's son!"
"Bingo Gokou you win the prize!" said Bulma laughing taking his son back before Gokou dropped him.
Everyone was so surprised that they were speechless. Gokou went over Vegeta and hugged
"My felicitation!"
"Let go of me you buffoon!" screamed the prince at Gokou. He let him go the prince was looking with disbelief.
"You better get going now, the game is going to start!" said Bulma They say goodbye to the warriors that walk through were the other warriors were gathering. "Wow looks at all those people!"
"Yeah there must be hundred of them!"
"I say let's kill them all!"
"You are not funny Vegeta!"
"Ok everybody please, on the ticket you have bought for the tournament there is a special number. This number indicates the lots you are going to fight for the elimination round, the sixteen finalists are the round who'll fight in the tournament the last one standing will have to go against the reigning champion Hercule. You have exactly five minutes to beat your opponent if after this time none of you have win well you are both disqualified. The rules are the same if you fall from the ring lose consciousness or give up you lose! If you killed your opponent even by mistake you'll be disqualified"
All the z-fighters looked at Vegeta
"What?"
"Ok everybody take your place please"
"I am so glad none of us is in the same lots" said Krillin
"Yeah it will be a shame that we eliminate each other before the big game!" replied Tien
"Ok guys good luck!" said Gokou
The Z-senchi plowed out the competition like a breeze; the maximum time they took to beat their opponents were one minute.
In the crowed the family and friends were waiting patiently for the result of the elimination round
"Aw I wanted to fight!"
"No Gohan you have to catch up in your study, I am raising a scholar not a warrior!"
"Kid you are lucky she let you come here" said Oolong
Inside the competition against the Z-fighters was getting creamed. A half later only sixteen fighters remained they were: Ano Chiatsou, Gokou, Jewels, Krillin, Mighty Mask, Torhu, Tien, Yamu, Piccolo, Rito, Spopovitch, Puntar, Killa, Vegeta, Yamu, and Yamcha.
"Now we are lets see what we have" said the announcer While was pairing them up their names was being write in a board outside so the spectators can see.

Vegeta Vs Yamu
Yamcha Vs Mighty Mask
Shiatsu Vs Killa
Tien Vs Spopovitch
Piccolo Vs Jewels
Ano Vs Rito
Gokou Vs Torhu
"Wow Vegeta and Gokou will fight last"
"Yeah it is always good to save the best for last!"
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen! Are you ready for action?" The crowd was cheering all excited.
"Now welcome last year champion Hercule!"
"Yaah I am Hercule the champion of the world, and you can be certain that you'll have a good show!"
"That is the reigning champion!"
"Yeah I know the world martial art tournament was no longer what he used to be!"
While the announcer and Hercule were entertained and cheering the crowd, Yamcha cellular phone started beeping
"Mushi, mushi"
"Hey Yamcha I have a surprised for you pal" said one of his team member
"What is it?"
"Well I bought the cheerleader squad with us to cheer you up"
"I can't believe you did this"
"Well we are going to cheer for you, I know you'll win!"
"Thanks!"
"Who was that?"
"The captain of my team, he brought with him some cheerleaders"
"What"
'What a loser!' thought Vegeta
The first opponents are Krillin and Pantar! Both are renown for their incredible fighting techniques but Krillin had been absent for the previous tournament but he's back!"
They both entering the arena, you could make ten Krillin out of Pantar.
"You better forfeit now, before you get hurt!"
"I wanted to say the same thing to you"
"Scrawny thing like you can't hurt me!"
"You know what the saying it's not the size that count!"
"Well today you'll know that size to matter"
"I was expecting something like that from an incompetent fighter!"
"I am feeling generous, I am going to give you a free try, oh yes try to hit me here as hard as you can" he said putting his big belly in front of Krillin
"I don't think you want to do that" warned Krillin
"What are you scared?"
"Ok if you insist!" Krillin with one hand punch him and the belly that sent him head first out of the arena and into the ground. He simply returned back with the others fighters while the crowd was acclaiming him.
"That was sure quick!" said Shiatsu and the other member of the gang was applauding him
"Yes good job cue ball I promise I'll do the same for you when it is our turn" said Vegeta while leaving for his match
"Party pooper!" said Krillin
"Now I present to you Yamu and Vegeta who are both new participant at this tournament, so will going to find out what those two fighters can do"
"Let's dance!" said Yamu
"I don't dance I eliminate!" Yamu attacked Vegeta but none of his kick and punches were able to hit him
"You are wasting my time!"
"Oh sorry I'll make it quick!"
"No I am going to" by just powering up the prince sent the other fighter flying out of the ring right into a wall. The crowd couldn't understand what just happened "At least he's still alive, I think he didn't want to waste his energy on that weakling" said Piccolo
"Next is Yamcha and Mighty Mask they both are accomplished fighters, and both had did very well on their last match now once again they are going to try their might on this arena"
The cheerleaders were now doing their stunt and cheering Yamcha singing. "Yamcha, Yamcha is our man if he can't do it no one can!"
"They got this one wrong I think they mean if he can do it anyone can" said Oolong
"How can you say something like that" said Puar
"Oh shut up!"
Yamcha was giving a great show it was the first match that last long enough for the crowd to enjoy. "Go, Go, Go Yamcha you can do it! You can do it! You have the strength you have the look no one can't stop you!"
"This is ridiculous he's wasting my time"
"Calm down Vegeta everyone is here to have some fun!"
He finally knocked the guy out, and left the ring under the applauded of the crowd.
It was the turned of Shiatsu and Killa, the first one didn't even break a sweat beating him. It was then followed by Tien and Spopovitch the fight last only two minutes. The spectators were amazed by how fast those guys put the competition out of commission. Piccolo looks scared away Jewels after he got ride of his cape this one just forfeited. The only normal and fair match was the one between Ano and Rito in which Rito won. Gokou got rid of his adversary with on single kick.
"Wow lady and gentlemen this is faster fights and the world martial art tournament" said the announcer "Now the new bout is the following:
Vegeta Vs Krillin
Yamcha Vs Shiatsu
Tien Vs Piccolo
Rito Vs Gokou
Now we have an idea of what those fighters can do the question is, who'll be the winner?"
