Dragon Ball Neo:
Tree's training begins can he take it?
Master Roshi walked into Tree's room, the little sayajin was asleep on a mat in the middle of the floor, and he wore only his training shirt and a pair of underwear. Master Roshi glanced at a clock on the wall it was 4:30 a.m.
"Get up Tree," he said tapping the sayajin's foot with his cane. Still asleep, the little sayajin rolled over and began to drool.
"I said get up," Master Roshi said as he flipped the boy's mat over to wake him. Tree pushed the mat off of him and sat there rubbing the sleep from his eyes. "But mister Roshi, it's still dark out even the suns sleepin"
Master Roshi looked at Tree and couldn't help but smile. "That may be, but the sun isn't trying to learn martial arts now is it."
Tree's stomach growled and he looked at Roshi, "my tummy's hungry, can we eat now?" Roshi tossed Tree a small bar of soap. "Go get washed up, and as for food; if you catch something we'll eat."
Tree and Roshi walked outside and Roshi took a seat in his lawn chair. Tree stripped off his clothes and walked over to Roshi and handed him the shirt and underpants. "Will you hold these for me," he asked. Master Roshi took the clothes and pointed toward the sea, "go wash up," he said.
Laughing Tree ran over to the water, he poked his foot in and jumped back with a yell. "Yeowch, it's cold," he yelled. Master Roshi snuck up behind Tree and with a mighty kick, sent him flying into the water. Tree came up; gasping for air but quickly became used to the temperature of the water. "Come on in mister Roshi it feels great," he said. Master Roshi began to yell, "I'm not swimming this is for your training, and it's Master Roshi not mister Roshi!"
Tree got a confused look on his face and began to use the soap to clean his self. He didn't notice the gray, triangle-like fin cutting through the water gliding slowly toward him.
Suddenly, Tree felt a tickle on his left foot. With a giggle he ducked under the water and looked around. A great white shark stared him in the face. Tree waved at the fish and swam quickly toward the surface.
Tree broke the water with a mighty splash, sending foam in all directions, the shark closely followed and Tree looked back, "Oh, he wants to play he thought." The shark snapped at his Tree's tail and the little sayajin realized. "Hey, he wants to eat me!" The sayajin began to float in place and when the shark began to rise above him, he drilled it in the stomach with a well-placed roundhouse kick.
The shark's eyes bulged and Tree rapidly pummeled it with his fist. As the shark began to fall back toward the water, the sayajin flew under it and caught it.
He floated over to Roshi's beach and landed in front of his teacher. "Can we eat this," he asked with a smile. Master Roshi just stared at the huge fish, "s-sure why not," he stammered.
After they had finished eating Master Roshi called Tree over to him and handed him his training shell. "Put this on," he said. "You're going to go swimming. "But I just went swimming," Tree said simply. "Well You're doing it again, it builds strength," Roshi said.
Tree had put the shell on, and was just about to go into the water, when Master Roshi came towards him dragging five cinder blocks tied together with rope. "Wait," Roshi said and came closer to Tree.
"I'm going to tie these to you," Roshi said. "Training is supposed to push your limits, this will push the limits of your strength."
Master Roshi tied the blocks to Tree, one on each arm, each leg, and his tail. "Ugh, this is heavy," Tree said as he slowly drug himself over to the sea.
When Tree got to the water he began to walk in when suddenly the water got deep and he began to rapidly sink. Tree gasped under the water, which caused a large group of bubbles to glide to the surface.
He tried to swim but the weight of the cinder blocks made it almost impossible to move. Tree's lungs began to ache for lack of air, and suddenly, almost instinctively he knew what to do. Tree's Ki energy spread to his arms, his legs, and even his tail. With a bubbly scream the energy caused his muscles to bulge greatly, nearly doubling in size.
With this muscular increase Tree could easily move and swam towards the surface. He came up gasping, and began to tread water.
From the shore Roshi saw this and knew that this could only mean that Tree was improving both in strength and the ability to manipulate his Ki energy. "Keep swimming," he shouted. Tree began to backstroke, the cinder blocks no longer a hindrance.
After about a half-an-hour of swimming, Master Roshi called Tree back to the shore. "Hey Tree would you like some coconut milk for a snack?" "MMM! Yummy, yes sir Mister Roshi!" "It's Master Roshi," Roshi yelled back, and if you want coconut milk you have to fetch the coconuts yourself." Tree eagerly scurried over to the nearest coconut tree and was about to climb up when Roshi stopped him.
"No, not that way. I'm going to teach you to harness the Ki energy you have. You need to be able to control it. Get the coconuts using only your energy."
Tree pondered this for a second and then it came to him. He began to channel his energy, and then with one sideways glance at the tree he projected his Ki at it. The top half of the tree exploded and the coconuts fell towards the ground.
Tree laughed and was amazed at what he had done, and then a coconut fell on his head leaving a big lump. "OUCH!" Tree got angry and kicked the coconut it flew thirty-feet into the air and Tree shot a Ki blast at it blowing it up instantly.
Master Roshi quickly took the sayajin aside and scolded him for his actions. "Never let you anger blind you," he said. "That could cause you to hurt or even kill someone you love and care about. What if instead of a coconut, that had been a friend who had accidentally done something to you?"
Tree thought about this, and small, salty, tears began to run from his eyes. "I'm sorry," he gasped between sobs, "I didn't mean to hurt the little coconut."
Master Roshi put a calming hand on his shoulder. "It's ok," he said. "Come with me I have something I want to teach you."
Master Roshi and Tree walked until they were about twenty feet from a giant rock that was sticking out of the sand.
"Now," Master Roshi said, "If you wanted to get rid of that rock, how would you do it?" Tree looked at the rock and rubbed his stomach. "I'd eat it," he said, "It looks yummy!"
Master Roshi smacked him on the back of the head. "YOU CAN'T EAT A ROCK!"
Master Roshi took a karate-stance and cupped his hands at his side. "And anyway, this is much easier." Master Roshi began to draw in his Ki energy; he made a small, blue, ball appear in his hand.
"KA-ME-HA-ME-HA!"
A large blast of energy shot from his hands and the rock was shattered into a million tiny shards.
Tree stared awestruck. "Oh wow," he whispered. "Can I try," that he said. "Sure," master Roshi replied.
Tree began to power up and was engulfed in a shimmering blue aura of Ki. He cupped his hands at his side a fierce look of determination on his face.... "Master Roshi I forget the words."
Master Roshi slapped his forehead. "The words don't need to be said to do the attack," he replied. "But if you really want to know it's KAMEHAMEHA! "Oh, thanks," Tree said
Tree resumed the stance, and channeled his Ki into his hands.
"KAMEHAMEHA," he yelled and thrust his hands forward. A blue beam of energy about half the size of Roshi's came forth and with that Tree learned the Kamehameha fighting technique.
