Chapter 34

The tyrannical ruler was taken a back, the Halfling brat that head butted him, was actually giving him a challenge, at this moment he was in horizontal position curved upward as he was forced to hug a hulking and scorching white ball of Ki blast that was successfully pushing him to the ground, the boy kept feeding the Ki ball, energy

Gohan was tiredly breathing before his eyes panned to his Mentor, the little boy pounced and glomped him then and there

"My Piccolo!" he wispily emitted, hungrily inhaling his musk, sweat and blood, mind starving for an ounce of peace and steadiness

He embraced his friend tighter and cried as all the stress and tension his body built up was released, he rubbed his face all over his chest impulsively wanting Piccolo's smell to stay on him

Piccolo warmly returned the hug despite all the physical pain he was in due to the contact and tears he had yet to heal
