Chapter 19: Chapter 19
Chapter Nineteen
Two years later
"Bulma! We'd all like to wish you…"
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
Bulma who held a glass of champagne while sitting in her birthday chair couldn't help but have a happy grin upon seeing her friends and family smiling happily at her. Her eyes landed on her handsome sexy husband who was actually dressed formally…well semi-formally. Even Brola was wearing a rather cute dress, which fit the Saiyan woman despite she didn't like wearing such. Lazuli stood by Naruto's side wearing a purple dress, which quite fit her too. Then her eyes wandered over to her beautiful children who had some degree of a happy smile on their face, dressed semi-formally like their father.
She felt amazing, honestly she really did. Despite being thirty-eight years old, thanks to her brilliant husband, she didn't look a day over twenty-three, not to mention felt like it too! But more importantly, she was very estatic and very proud of her family who had set this entire party up for her. Bulma at first thought she would have to come up with it and fund it and everything, but Naruto completely took it out her hands without saying a single word. Several days later of careful planning…and here they were!
Except one…Goku. Piccolo was here…Hercule was here…Majin Buu was here…Dende was here…Masa and her kids were here… And Goku! Her best friend since she was a teenager, who started this whole adventure that was her life was not here! Too busy training on King Kai's planet! Why would he miss this?! For training?! Couldn't he train the next day?! No, no. She was not going to let Goku's absence and his idiotic thinking, ruin her mood. It wouldn't be fair to her friends and her family. And it especially wouldn't be fair to Naruto. So with a smile, she raised her own glass and the party continued on.
Naruto gave a smile as he sat in a seat eating his ramen happily while he felt the positive and good vibes coming off of everybody. He spotted the birthday girl having a conversation with Lazuli, Chichi, Masa and Krillin, probably telling the two about how great of a job he did. He then glanced to see Trunks and Goten were playing with Atsui who was running around with a balloon.
His eyes soon landed on Samui who was with Miya, talking to Videl. Thinking of the married woman made him turn to her husband, Gohan was currently chowing down with Brola, Asura and Augus. Karasuba stood not too far from Piccolo, the two of them meditating. The others were simply having conversation with one another, which made Naruto smile as he continued to eat. It really sucked Vegeta and Goku decided to train, he understood why Vegeta didn't show up, but Goku was Bulma's best friend, so it was really disappointing he didn't show up. Whatever, he'd knock some sense into him later.
The blond thought about the last few years since Hercule opened up that hotel of his, which if anything boosted the man's ego a bit. Well, that's until he and Brola got into a fight over some food and caused it to come crashing down. It also didn't help that Goku and Vegeta did the same as well. Anyway, that humbled the man quiet a bit. Not like he planned for that to happen, but Videl was quite happy about it. Then Tarble and Gure returned to their planet, thanking them for the help.
Since then everything has been pretty good. Bulma finally gave in and decided to home school the kids. Uzumaki Ramen now had a few shops in every major city, Uzumaki fashion took off allowing Naruto and Goku to see more people wear orange which was amazing, and the dojo was getting popular by the month. Though no pupils had yet to be taken or Ki to be taught, however he was hoping by the twenty eighth World martial arts tournament there may be way more fighters that weren't weaklings. So business was booming. Oh, and his family just discovered Brola was pregnant. So yeah…
As for strength wise, his power seemed to have no limits, so there really wasn't much else to tell there. Goku, Vegeta and Brola were finally able to become Super Saiyan fours, thanks to the fact they had their tails, and Vegeta could create a artificial moon. Now that they were near his level, it made sparring so much better, to the point they often sparred on the land of the kai's to avoid blowing up the Earth. Another thing Naruto found great was, the Dragon balls had yet to be used since he and Goku's fight with Janemba. Allowing his fear of something going awry with that whole situation.
However as of late he had been having a strange feeling about something that was a mystery to him. He felt as if some new adventure was coming, and he wasn't sure how to exactly feel about it. His last adventure resulted in the Universe nearly being destroyed and his family murdered. So he felt he had the right to be wary of whatever was to come, but he still never backed down from a challenge. He did have his pride after all.
His attention however was given to a sudden spike in energy, and he glanced up as did Gohan and Brola. Goku had just gone Super Saiyan four, but why? Before he could question it, the power was gone. Naruto raised a brow, strange, it was there a minute ago. Goku wasn't dead, he knew that but still, it was odd. "Naruto!"
'King Kai, what's going on? Why did Goku turn to SSJ4?' Naruto questioned his mentor.
"Don't worry about that right now. My message is extremely important!" King Kai told him and Naruto did his best to keep a serious look off his face and returned to eating his ramen with gusto. However King Kai knew he was listening, "Beerus the destroyer has awoken and is heading towards Earth,"
'The Destroyer? Doesn't sound too good but at the same time sound's hella strong!'
"Idiot! Don't get any bright ideas! Goku just got his ass handed to him before it was a full minute!" King Kai scolded him which surprised Naruto quite a bit. "He's a god Naruto! You must be very careful not to anger him in any kind of way! He has a history of blowing up planets because of his anger," Naruto hummed in response as he got more ramen with some bread. "The fate of the world is entirely in your hands Naruto,"
"Since I've showed up, when has it not?" the blond grumbled as the connection was cut. He raised a brow as he felt a head rest on his shoulder and looked down to see Bulma smiling softly at him. "Hey there beautiful, need another drink?" he offered, noting her glass was low.
"I think I'm good, you're not trying to get me drunk are you?" Bulma teased with a raised brow. "Sweetheart, if you want to show me a good time you just have to ask, no need to get me all liquored up," Bulma winked causing Naruto to chuckle as he bent down and pulled her into a loving kiss which she eagerly accepted and returned. Their tongues slowly mingled with each other and Bulma had to pull herself away, lest she demanded him to fuck her on one of these tables. "Thank you, this really means a lot to me."
"I'd do anything for you Bulma," Naruto smiled, "Within reason of course," he chuckled causing her to roll her eyes playfully as he kissed her forehead. He then looked around along with Bulma and his smile brightened. "Everyone seems to be having a good time," Naruto noted which Bulma agreed too with a nod. "I'm sorry about Goku dear,"
"It's alright," Bulma waved him off. "I know you'll kick his ass later, so it's fine," Bulma smiled as she kissed him softly. "Don't worry about. Now, I believe it's time for you to do some socializing mister. I've seen you do nothing but eat ramen! C'mon time to talk to your friends," Bulma said looping her arm around his and dragging him as he playfully groaned.
"Naruto!" they heard and looked to see Vegeta walking up to him, wearing his battle armor with his tail wrapped around his waist. "We need to talk, it's important," Vegeta told him with a serious look.
"Hey, hello! Earth to Vegeta! This is a party, my birthday party to be exact! Why'd you come in your armor?" Bulma wondered while Vegeta and Naruto stared each other down. "Hello? Are you ignoring me?"
"I already know Vegeta," Naruto told him, causing Bulma to huff. "Just keep easy," Naruto advised with the Saiyan huffing just as a pregnant Masa came up to her husband and gave him a questioning look.
"Vegeta-kun, what's wrong?" she wondered and Vegeta gazed into her eyes and seemed to visibly calm down. Naruto had a soft smile, appreciating the positive effect Masa had on Vegeta. He then looked to a curious yet annoyed Bulma and gained her attention by pulling her in for another kiss which blew her irritation completely.
"Ah Prince Vegeta I presume," they heard causing Vegeta's eyes to visibly widen as he looked around frantically. Naruto looked around as well, as the voice continued, "You've grown into quite the warrior. Alas the energy that which you draw upon for your strength has no effect on deities such as myself," the voice chuckled.
Vegeta began frantically searching until he and Naruto finally spotted a humanoid purple furred cat person and what looked to be his attendant, sitting in one of the lounge chairs in the shade. Vegeta's eyes got impossibly big while Naruto raised a brow upon seeing the creature. "Don't tell me you forgot about Lord Beerus," the creature spoke, his ears twitching a bit. A look of realization came upon Vegeta's face as he glared. Naruto frowned, irritated he hadn't even been able to sense this guy's arrival!
"It's hard to believe, even with my great intellect, that when we last crossed paths, you were just a boy." Beerus then looked at his finger with disinterest. "It feels so recent. Like it was yesterday your father was putting out quite the spread of honor for my arrival,"
"Beerus the destroyer, my lord," Vegeta paused as he threw a glance to Naruto who sighed but slowly nodded. He would be respectful, lest he wanted the planet to blow up. Beerus soon stood up and looked around.
"It looks like you all are celebrating a pleasant spring catillion of some kind," Beerus noted. "And if I do say, the food smells splendid," Beerus grinned as he sniffed. Naruto gave a chuckle, making his presence known.
"It is all, pretty good. My daughter Miya set up the cater, she's pretty good at that," Beerus and Whis gazed upon Naruto and the former narrowed his eyes slightly, as he studied Naruto. Whis also studied the man with a careful eye while Naruto rolled his neck as he then pulled his lovely wife to him, but kept her close.
"Today we are honoring my wife's birthday, Bulma. Hun, this is Lord Beerus the destroyer," Naruto introduced with Bulma knowing something was up. Why? Because Naruto never was this respectful to people he didn't know. Lord? He would have just called him Beerus and called it a day. Then she glanced over to Vegeta who looked absolutely shook and knew for sure something was up. So for now, she would play it safe.
"Pleasure to make your acquaintance, my lord," Bulma bowed a bit. Beerus smiled at her as he looked her over, then he looked to Naruto and hummed to himself.
"Same to you my dear. Happy birthday," Beerus bowed his head slightly. "Now, as to why I am here," he then surprised Naruto and Vegeta with his speed as the God appeared before Vegeta. "Tell me, in all your time of space traveling and what not, have you ever heard the term Super Saiyan God?" he questioned with both Naruto and Vegeta looking a bit confused. Legendary Super Saiyan? Yes. Super Saiyan God? No.
"Wait a Super Saiyan God?" Vegeta questioned, sounding surprised, which he was.
"So that's a no," Beerus grumbled as Whis floated behind him. He then looked to Naruto, "You um…"
"Naruto, sir," Whis supplied. "He is also a Saiyan,"
"He is? Why is he blond? Is he a Super Saiyan?"
"No I just came like this sir," Naruto answered truthfully. "I'm a…special case, you can say," he smirked lightly. "But no, I haven't heard of a Super Saiyan God either, it's new to me."
"Is it possible your prophecy was wrong Beerus?" Whis teased the god.
"I never get such things wrong!"
Yet Whis laughed at him. "Replace never with always."
"You're putting me in a bad mood Whis," Beerus grumbled while Vegeta got nervous. "Now, I would hate to impose on your party, but I'm not one to turn down such a delicious smell, such as that one,"
"Be my guest!" Bulma smiled as she gestured them to the party. The two then walked to the party and Bulma glanced between the Saiyans. "Explanation, now!" she whispered very quietly.
"Don't upset him, he'll destroy the planet," Naruto said simply with Vegeta nodding in agreement as the two followed. Bulma blinked and she sighed, great now she really did need to watch her drinking. With that she trailed after her husband.
For a time it really wasn't that bad, though Vegeta remained quiet tense. Everyone met Beerus and Whis, and welcomed them warmly. Beerus seemed to be enjoying the food quiet a bit, especially Naruto's ramen. But despite this rather chill time, even Naruto was till a bit on edge causing Brola and Lazuli along with Miya and Samui to wonder what was up with him. However he couldn't explain, so he just passed off their concerns. There was Karaoke which Piccolo was quite horrible at, they had a dancing ring which Beerus participated in gladly in showing off his amazing dance moves that Naruto quite enjoyed while Vegeta was stunned.
"Hey Naruto! Your son has a girlfriend!"
Hearing this, he looked to Bulma who was standing beside Goten while Trunks left to some kids he didn't really know. A blue monkey, a dog and a girl, all looking around his kids' age. Naruto glanced over to where Beerus was drinking with Krillin and he decided to take a small break. He was supposed to be enjoying himself, not babysitting. With a small smile he walked over to Bulma, and raised a brow, "What's going on now?"
"Trunks has a girlfriend!" Goten said excitedly causing Naruto to frown lightly. "He said they hold hands and everything!" Naruto hummed in response. "It's so cool!" Bulma raised a brow as she noticed Naruto didn't seem amused as she was.
"What's wrong, you should be happy he has a girl," Bulma teased while Naruto frowned in thought. "Hun?" she asked as she and Goten looked at Naruto.
"If Trunks has a girlfriend, and is keeping her from us…then…MIYA! SAMUI!" he called and rushed off as Bulma and Goten blinked. Bulma then realized what Naruto was going on about as he hounded his daughters who were both completely embarrassed and trying to wave off his concerns of them having boyfriends.
"What happened?"
"He's being a worried daddy, that's all," Bulma chuckled. Later after Trunks brings his girlfriend and her friends, she decides to interact with her a bit while Naruto was not too far, eyeing Beerus. "I think Mai is such a pretty name! How old are you hun?" Bulma asked while having some lemonade.
"Forty-one in march," Mai answered nonchalantly. Bulma gasped a bit while the blue boy, Pilaf, laughed playing it off. Bulma herself laughed a bit as Trunks sisters decided to have conversation with the girl as this was the first time of them hearing about a girlfriend. Though Mai was constantly blushing while Trunks tried to get his sisters to butt out. Asura was too busy feeding his face with Beerus and Brola to really care.
Soon enough it was time for Bingo, which Naruto himself decided to host since this whole party thing was his brain child. "Now for the highlight of the day! It's Bingo time!" he grinned as he stood on the stage with a screen beside him. Soon enough two swimsuit models came out, holding pictures of the prizes causing Roshi and Oolong to go crazy. "Now, I think we can all admit that the Castle and the plain are all amazing prizes but both pale in comparison to the grand prize of…" he then ripped the cover off the grand prize of…
"A complete set of all seven…what the?" Naruto glanced down to the pile to see there were only six. The four star ball was missing! Naruto then turned around and spotted the blue monkey boy who shrieked out, and he saw him holding the four star ball and everyone turned their attention on them. "Mind explaining why you have that ball kid?" just as he asked that question, Trunks was held captive with a gun to his head while the dog held a blade to Trunk's throat. "Eh?"
"Alright! Listen up folks! If you don't want us to smash this kid into apple sauce you'll pay us one million zeni!" everyone just gazed at him silently. "A hundred thousand would also work," he threw in and everyone began laughing, even Naruto and Lazuli.
"What are you jerks laughing at? I'll kill him! I mean it!" The girl threatened and Naruto then noticed how Vegeta was placating Beerus, who apparently wanted to discipline them since a child was threatening to kill another child and they all laughed.
"We're not goofing around here where's the money?!"
"Hey uh Mai, I wanna break up,"
"Cram it hostage!"
"But your chest is on my shoulder,"
"Forget the bingo game!" Gohan grinned and Naruto knew he was a bit drunk. "This is way more entertaining! I wanna play your hostage game too you guys!" Gohan said happily as he ripped off his clothes, now Great Saiyaman! "Those who will commit evil! Beware of the all great powerful, Great Saiyaman is here to save Trunks from his evil girlfriend!" Gohan danced around and posed. This earned cheers of course as Gohan walked up to her. "If you're gonna shoot someone young lady, shoot me!"
"I'm not gonna shoot you!"
"Back off man!"
"No seriously, shoot me," Gohan whispered to them. "Let's kick things up a notch, yeah? Make it more dramatic for the rest of the party," Gohan said making them confused. "Oh and don't just fire once. Panic and empty the whole clip into me, kay?"
"You're crazy,"
"I've fought next to Gohan in almost tons of battles," Trunks spoke up. "He's fast enough to dodge almost anything,"
"Don't aim for my hands or feet either, lets just keep it simple," Gohan told her. "Only aim at my upper body and face!" with that he jet back and Naruto sighed, this was really ruining his plans for Bulma. "Alright then villains! You may fire when ready!"
"Fine! You asked for it!" Mai said as she cocked the gun and began emptying the clip at Gohan. And he blocked them all with one finger, Gohan laughed while they freaked out at what just happened.
"That was a real gun?" Naruto blinked. "Little kids shouldn't be playing with real guns! You could have actually shot someone!"
"Ah! I'm shot!"
"SEE!" Naruto pointed to Videl as Hercule and Gohan rushed to Videl. "Gohan! Your stupid super hero game nearly got your wife killed!" he scolded as Gohan apologized. "Dende, can you please?"
"Yeah, I got it."
"Thank you."
"Nice job Little green."
"Still hate you." Dende grumbled while Krillin deflated a bit. Soon the wound healed and Videl thanked him, though he looked a bit surprised. "Hey um, I can sense that your…" he paused as Videl hushed him, not wanting anyone to know yet. "Oh, okay."
"Gohan! I don't want you drinking anymore punch today! You hear me?!" Chichi scolded.
"Yes mom."
Naruto rolled his eyes as he then remembered something, something important…something about destroying…"Oh shit. Lord Beerus!" Naruto shouted frantically as he looked to the destroyer who had a bullet in his head. "Oh shit! Oh shit!" he actually panicked along with Vegeta as Beerus was getting angry.
Think! Think! THINK! "HEY YOU PEOPLE!" Naruto yelled into the mic as Vegeta joined him on stage. "Now that Gohan's stupid deadly party trick is over! It's time for…"
"The bingo tournament!" Vegeta finished as he and Naruto began to do a dance as music played.
"BINGO!"
They honestly felt ridiculous but…
"BINGO!"
They needed to make sure that damn cat didn't blow up their home!
"BINGO!"
It was already blown up once! They don't need it to be a second time!
"FUN TIME BINGO! It's the best place to be yeah! The food is tasty too YEAH!"
"They've lost it," Brola grumbled as she along with everyone else was watching the two rather prideful Saiyans make fools out of themselves on stage by dancing and singing. Bulma had a small frown as did Masa, as both wives knew this was really going to hurt their respective husbands prides later.
"Lets go! Hey yo! Let's be friends OH!" Naruto and Vegeta sang as they danced in perfect synchronization. "Lets play Fun time BINGO! TIME TO PLAY SOME BING-O! OH YEAH!"
The two then glanced towards Whis and Beerus who both blanched at the two, but at least he wasn't angry. "That was certainly something,"
"Indeed. I never figured Vegeta for such a poor song and dance man, and that Naruto guy doesn't look like it either," Beerus grumbled. "But they sure can give you a run for your money,"
"Now you're just being hurtful."
Both Naruto and Vegeta calmed down as the two stood up and headed to the buffet, again. The two released breaths of relief before the fist pounded each other, nice save. Naruto then caught the dragon ball Bulma took from the kids, and told everyone it was time for Bingo. "We made fools out of ourselves, but we just got to keep him in a good mood and persuade him to leave," Vegeta told Naruto who nodded in agreement as Vegeta made his way off stage.
Within minutes, Naruto started the Bingo game in better spirits as everyone was having fun, even Piccolo though he seemed to be muttering out curses. Then it all went to shit…
"Give pudding to Lord Beerus!"
"No! Pudding all Buu's!"
"You're being a rude guest!"
"Mine!"
"GIVE ME PUDDING YOU DUMB BLOB!"
"You call Buu dumb?! Now Buu gonna turn you into candy and eat you!"
"Ah shit." Both Vegeta and Naruto groaned.
"YOU MADE ME MAD!" Beerus roared as his power exploded, taking on a purple ki. Buu growled and rushed at Beerus but was soon pushed away, falling into the water.
"A fight?!"
"Lord Beerus! Please stop!"
"C'mon boys lets roll!"
"No everyone stop!" Naruto snapped but no one listened as Beerus easily took down Tien, Piccolo, Krillin, and Gohan. "Stop! STOP!" Naruto screamed but no one listened even as he flared his ki. "Why aren't they listening to me!" he then watched as Vegeta rushed at Beerus turning Super Saiyan Four. "Damn, this is bad!" he growled. "I need to calm him down!" Naruto muttered just as Vegeta was sent crashing to the ground. He was further annoyed when his kids decided to fuse together and challenge Beerus. "Shit!" he growled then looked to Brola and Lazuli, "You two don't move! This guy is way above our league," he ordered in the most serious voice he could.
"Then kick his ass before he kills our kids!" Brola snapped at him and he nodded and flew off just as Miysuba and Augura were blown away and Gotenks was receiving a spanking. "Huh, couldn't have done it better myself," Brola chuckled while Lazuli rolled her eyes.
"Lord Beerus!" Naruto called out to the god, there was still a chance he could be respectful and save his planet because it hadn't been blown up yet. "I can get you pudding! All the damn pudding you want! Just don't destroy my planet!"
Beerus gazed at Naruto as he had a small scowl, while they landed. "I don't get a pudding cup, and the Super Saiyan God is not here," Beerus muttered. "However, I still have yet to fight you. Want to give it a gander?"
"I know when I'm outclassed, I'm not stupid," Naruto scowled.
"Alright that's enough goofing around!" they heard and Naruto's eyes widened upon seeing Bulma behind Beerus.
"Bulma! Get out of here!"
"No! You and the kids planned a wonderful party, the best I ever had and this jack ass comes and ruins it!" Bulma snarled. "I don't give a damn if you are the world destroyer or whatever they call you! No one gets to stomp on my family's hard work and gets away with it!" with that she slapped him as Beerus turned to her.
"Ah…" Naruto gasped lightly as he watched comically. But another part of him deep down, found her anger rather sexy. But now wasn't the time for that, despite he was thinking about bending her over and…
SLAP!
Did he just slap Bulma?
He just slapped Bulma.
HE JUST SLAPPED BULMA!
"How dare you?!" Naruto snarled as his power erupted around him and was rising by the millisecond to heights he hadn't even reached before. "You hit my Bulma! My Bulma!" Naruto screamed as the entire earth began to shake and the sky darkened while his hair golden hair gained a tint of light green, his aura was becoming a bit red while his pupils disappeared. "NO ONE HITS MY BULMA!" Naruto screamed beyond the heavens a pillar of gold being seen from space.
"I'LL KILL YOU!"
