Jazz looked around. "Wow… he brought me exactly back." He looked around the rubble of FryPan Mountain and sighed. Looking around, he spied a familiar figure.
"Oh! It's you!" The Ox-King ran forward, shouting and smiling. Jazz put down the heavy bag he was holding and placed it into a capsule. He accepted the Ox-King's bear-hug. "My goodness, where did you go with your wish?"
Jazz smiled wryly, "to try and get home, unfortunately, it didn't work, so I'm back."
The Ox-King nodded, "I understand the feeling, no matter what you achieve, only to end up feeling weak and useless because your accomplishments amount to nothing. I gathered treasure all my life, but couldn't save my wife." He sighed, "but enough sad talk, come, let me invite you for dinner!"
Jazz accepted his invitation and followed the Ox-King to a small village. "Oh wow, what a lovely place."
"Is it?" The man laughed nervously, "I became so strong that some people began to live under me, that's how I got my name of the Ox-King, as long as they didn't threaten my treasures I would let them live their lives, but I displaced them when the fire took the mountain." He looked sad as he waved at the villagers, who happily waved back.
"They don't look unhappy, I'm sure the people always appreciated you, sir." Jazz replied, this caused the man to smile, then laugh. Dinner was relatively long, with the Ox-King asking of Jazz's short journey for the week he was gone, Jazz avoided specifics, but spoke of beseeching help from a powerful, ancient, and mysterious elder of an alien race, but even he could not fully help.
"Well, I'm certain you'll find what you seek eventually." The Ox-King put down his goggles, which dramatically softened his features.
"Definitely." Jazz smiled, 'It's a matter of whether I live to tell of it that matters or not,' he thought to himself. He turned to see Chi-Chi, who was wolfing down a massive amount of food.
"Oh? My daughter says she wants to be as strong as that tailed boy, Goku, she admires him and wants to meet him again, but wants to be really strong before she does meet him."
"I see." Jazz laughed, remembering how strong Chi-Chi became after training under only the Ox-King, he thought to just how much stronger she might become if she trained seriously. "At some point, you might want her to go see Master Roshi for some extra training." He began, "if she ever happens to surpass you, it may be needed."
"That's a good idea!" The Ox-King guffawed some more, "I would love for that to happen!"
They enjoyed the lovely meal, and afterward, Jazz prepared his meager belongings while the Ox-King filled him in on the little about current events he knew of. After the briefing, he asked. "So, Jazz, where will you head? Will you go join Goku to train under Master Roshi? I'm certain he'd love to have you around again. Would you go live with Bulma? She seems rather fond of you, like a sibling, and seemed sad when you disappeared, or do you have a place you lived in for a short while before you left on your trip? If you don't I can have you live with me, I'm not as skilled as Roshi and not nearly as rich as I used to be, but it's a good life."
Jazz bowed, "thank you very much for your offers, but I was actually going to head towards the Southern Transformation School."
"Oh?" The Ox-King seemed excited. "How interesting! Well, if you have the talent, they will take you, be careful though, apparently a former teacher was fired over a year ago, and he's been terrorizing the area and local towns, his name is Boss Rabbit."
Jazz cocked his head in confusion. "Wait, didn't Goku beat him on September 9th?"
The Ox-King laughed, "not at all, they left the area, I only heard about Boss Rabbit from my returning villagers a few days ago, besides, the 9th was the day Goku left to take you to Master Korrin, you both returned on the 10th. Oh? What was Master Korrin like?" The Ox-King asked.
Jazz froze for a few seconds, "Oh, shit…"
"He looked like poop?!" Chi-Chi asked mid-bite.
"Oh! No! Sorry!" Jazz laughed, "Slip of the tongue, Korrin had a regal appearance, and his hair was white, signifying his age, it seemed like his eyes were always closed, but he could still see you."
"Amazing…" The Ox-King muttered in amazement, "What if I trained under such a fellow…"
Jazz ignored his thoughts and turned to the Ox-King, "alright, thank you for the information, I'll do my best to get to the school, and oh, when's the next full moon? I guess I and Goku slept through it, I wanted to catch it last time."
"Oh? Well… it should be in about 19 days, a little less than three weeks. Oh! Here, take this capsule! I would have given it to Bulma since the car was destroyed, but that Yamcha fellow had a plane."
Jazz took the capsule and tossed it, revealing a hovercar with front-mounted machine guns. "Oh wow… thanks!" He smiled, taking the car. "Also, thanks for the info!"
The trip to the village the Rabbit Gang frequented took about a day. When there, Jazz asked around about the Rabbit Gang and came across its two representative goon members. It took him all of 2 seconds to beat them down, and another 30 minutes to call the Rabbit Gang leader's Boss over. Skipping pleasantries, Jazz sent out the capsule in his hand and took out a 20 kg wrist weight and tossed it to Boss rabbit, knocking him to the floor and pinning him. While the rabbit was on the floor, Jazz took out a huge swathe of ducktape, thick wool gloves, thick rubber gloves, and oven mitts. He wrapped up the unconscious rabbit's arms and legs in the bindings tightly and tied them to rope.
"B-but Boss's trick?!" One of the goons trembled.
"What type of idiot would grab the hand of a random gang leader he just called his enemy?" Jazz retorted.
The villagers cheered Jazz on. As they did, Jazz turned to the shopkeep he borrowed the items from. "So… with this, I don't have to pay for gas or the items, right?"
"Of course! In fact, you can come in for a free refill and whatever you are anytime!" The man shouted excitedly.
"Hey, calm down!" Jazz laughed, "I mean, doing something like that would make me no better." The villagers laughed along with him. "But umm…" Jazz began, "Quick question, where's the Southern Transformation school?"
The villagers got silent. "You don't want to go there." One man shouted, "they bewitch normal people and steal all their things, Boss Rabbit is vile, but he came from that school!"
"Well, yeah, I want them to pay for their transgressions." Jazz replied, "please, I'll be alright, okay?"
The people looked at each other but eventually nodded. "Alright, we'll take you."
"Thanks." Jazz smiled as he dragged the still dazed Monster Carrot forward.
To his surprise, the people took no major roads, instead, they led him half a mile across the straight desert until they reached a unique phenomenon. Jazz rubbed his eyes in confusion, he looked forward, towards the desert before him, in the middle of the desert a geyser was sprung before them, and at the top of the geyser, a woman was bathing. It looked as if the geyser was holding the woman up as she danced and washed herself.
"Oooh!" The woman looked down at the group. "Visitors? It's been so long!" Jazz did a double-take as the water in the geyser flowed towards them, coalescing like a winding snake and surrounding them, the woman drifted forward, floating through the flow. "Oh, you're those villagers!" She smiled sadly, "I'm sorry, but like I said, even I can't defeat him, but if you bring him I can make sure he's punished."
"Lady Ebi Mizu!" One of the villagers announced. "We were able to capture Monster Carrot!"
"I'm sorry, you heard me, I can't he-" the water woman flinched as she realized what the villagers said. Jazz began to realize she was slightly transparent and seemed to glisten with sweat. "Oh! This is joyous!" She seemed to swim down the water, landing by Jazz and grabbing at Monster Carrot. Jazz was shocked by her strength as she lifted the Rabbit and Jazz, who was wearing 40kg worth of weights, into the air. "Huh?!" She looked at Jazz, "Who are you?!"
"Lady Ebi!" One of the men shouted, "he's the boy who defeated Monster Carrot!"
The woman looked at Jazz, "really? This boy did?" She looked at him, narrowing her eyes before smiling. "Ah… I see…" She turned to the villagers, "thank you, I can take over from here." She turned to Jazz. "You can let go of him, and follow me please."
Jazz nodded, "will you take me to the Southern Transformation School?"
The woman's face twisted into a sneer. "If you wish… huhuhuhuhu!" She laughed.
Jazz raised an eyebrow skeptically. 'Okay, well she's obviously hostile to me…'
Jazz followed behind the woman, who laughed sinisterly. Eventually, Monster Carrot woke up and began to panic when he realized he was in the woman's grasp.
"You woke up, you jerk?" She smiled then smacked him hard. The villain shrieked into his gag as a blast of water struck his face. Jazz watched in interest as water streams snaked up from the ground, forming whips that continuously struck the rabbit-shaped person. "You just had to be so naughty… didn't you, ooh-fufu… well, you're going to love what happens next you jerk." Monster Carrot shuddered and began to sweat in fear, or perhaps the water was dripping off his face. Jazz remained quiet, watching and observing his surroundings. Despite walking further into the desert, the surroundings became more and more lush and green.
"Are we in the middle of an Oasis?"
"I wouldn't imagine a human to understand." The water woman laughed.
"I have a name." Jazz replied.
"Oh? Then what's my name?!"
"The villagers literally mentioned it, you are Ebi Mizu."
The woman, Ebi, scowled, "Darn, you remember?"
"I mean it would be bad to forget a pretty woman's name." Jazz smiled.
"What?! Pretty?! You're just kidding! You, humans, are always scared of us monster people!"
Jazz raised an eyebrow, "I have a friend with a monkey tail who turns into a giant monkey under certain conditions, it's tough to scare me, besides, I wanted to come here."
"Hmmm… well, the truth will be revealed soon."
They arrived in front of a large mansion, the walls were painted a vibrant yellow, and a sprawling, well-kept lawn was enclosed by red brick walls enclosed the entire campus.
Jazz looked up at the signage in the front of the building. Southern Transformation Academy for the Magically Gifted. "What a neat school." Jazz murmured.
"It's the pride and joy of us monster people." Ebi smiled, "We love and cherish all of our people, and protect them from hostile humans, other, less well-meaning Monster People… and Magicians who dare eat our own!"
Jazz turned too late as water whipped around his body, surrounding him and restraining him.
"Boy… you think you can hide who you are from me? You've not only eaten a Korropokkur, but you've eaten the immortal Phoenix! A human as selfish and vile as you will never be allowed to see the light of day again!"
Jazz shook, "wait! Let me explain!"
"Please! Your ki radiates evil! Do you think I'd just stop and listen? Did you plan to use Monster Carrot as bait? You planned to eat us all?! Well, this Ningyo-Amabie won't let you!" She moved the water to his face as she attempted to drown him, concurrently, the water around his body rose up, carrying him with it, and began to repeatedly slam him into the ground.
'Can't breathe!' Jazz, despite all his newfound strength, couldn't break out of the bonds. He felt his heart and head pounding as his lungs screamed for oxygen. Before he lost consciousness, he attempted to say the magic words. "Wabowa…"
The water woman shrieked angrily as a torrent of flames erupted from all around Jazz, steam hissed out as the flames clashed with her water and evaporated all around Jazz. Jazz collapsed on the floor, gasping for air. The water, including the steam, rushed together, forming a giant hammer that she attempted to crash down on Jazz. Jazz removed the weights around his legs and dived backward, rapidly clearing the area. The water smashed the ground, leaving the impression of a giant foot on the ground. He turned to see the woman, who stomped forward as if trying to crush a scurrying insect, he looked up to see the water rushing down, emulating her movements. He let off a rapid series of short hops, avoiding each water-stomp as it went.
"Hey!" He shouted angrily. "Can you stop!?"
Ebi ignored his pleas and simply grit her teeth. "Stop squirming you little monster!" She roared in rage then raised her clenched fists into the air, the water coalesced into a tidal wave that attempted to surround Jazz.
Jazz leaped as high into the air as he could as the miniature tsunami flooded the area. As he looked down he stuck both his hands together and shouted as loudly as he could. "WABOWABOBOBO!" He felt a blindingly painful headache but fought through it. "raaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" A massive conflagration formed above him, coalescing into an orb of red fire with an orange center.
"Useless!" The Yokai gathered up her water, ice crystals forming within it, and prepared to launch upwards, then flinched as she felt ki gather in Jazz's hands. So
Jazz felt his ki gather together in a point between his palms, he concentrated on keeping the gathered ki together in the center to form a ball. He saw the woman grit her teeth and launch her water upwards, he retaliated by launching down his ki-infused fire-orb. The flames and water clashed, evaporating the flames, but the orb then split off into pieces, exploding outwards and blasting away all the steam before the woman could reform it. Jazz landed in front of her and took out his sword, holding it to the self-proclaimed "Ningyo-Amabie". "Look…" he began, fighting through his headache and fatigue, "I'm not your enemy."
"Oh please, just kill me and be done with it!" Ebi's voice was laced with venom, but her limbs trembled in fear and exhaustion.
Jazz sighed, tossing away the sword. "I'm not your enemy." He gazed into her eyes, attempting to convey his feelings.
She stared at him emotionlessly, then her eyes seemed to soften and she looked down. "Fine… I'll believe you."
Jazz relaxed, only to be struck in the back of the head. He collapsed unconscious almost immediately.
…
"Was it something I said?!"
Jazz had been on a date with a girl. It had been going well, or at least, he thought it had been going well.
"Take me home." She'd said angrily after a movie.
"What?" Jazz asked incredulously. "Did I say or do anything wrong?"
The girl's face just hardened as she marched out of the movie theater. Jazz chased after her. "Wait! I'm sorry, let me walk you home!"
She said nothing, simply walking a little slower than before to let Jazz catch up and walk beside her.
Jazz's mind was full of uncertainties. What had he done? He obviously made her mad, but why? Did he do too much, too little? He was told she liked romance movies so he left the movie choice to her. He paid for her tickets, popcorn, pizza, and criminally overpriced soda, got himself items of a similar total price to not make her feel self-conscious about spending too much, and liberally allowed her to have some of his candy and share back her items when she wanted to in return. Halfway through the movie he even awkwardly reached out his hand and she grasped it with utmost confidence. So what went wrong? She seemed to laugh at the movie and was enjoying herself.
"I'm sorry, I know I sound like a broken record… I loved going out with you and I'm sorry if something I said or did make you upset, I just want to know, I don't want to mess up on our next date."
The girl, Monica, let out an odd sound, something in between a scoff, a choked sob, a giggle, and a groan. She shook her fists angrily, turning to the 14-year-old Jazz.
"You're an asshole, Jazz!" She shouted, tearing up.
"Wh-what?!" Jazz asked in shock.
"You prick! Just shut up! You think you know me?!"
"W-well… you're in my class… right?"
"You're just dating me for a bet, right?!"
"No!" Jazz shook his head profusely. "I think you're cute!"
"Liar!" Monica growled. "I saw you hanging out with Jessica and Heather!"
Jazz's face contorted. "That's a misunderstanding! I was just asking them about what you like!"
"Then why didn't you know anything I liked?!" Monica glared at Jazz.
Jazz gulped awkwardly, not having the heart to repeat what the two girls said behind Monica's back.
"Pfft… I'm done here…" Monica slammed the door to her home in front of Jazz's face. Jazz thought back to his advice from Bart.
"Look man, girls are people too, gotta remember that, don't treat them like they're better or special, only treat your girlfriend that way. Also, they're people, and a lot of people get burned by bad relationships. If a girl's been burned, you wanna know their number one turn off? Unless they're desperate as fuck or completely stupid?"
Jazz remembered not knowing.
"It's being too fucking good to be true. You act like you're Jesus incarnate combined with Harry Styles or Justin Bieber or some shit, and they'll be all over you for a few moments, but when they stop to think, they'll get super fucking scared it's just a shitty prank or a fog they tricked themselves into believing. Then they'll test you. If you fuck up and act like you don't care, they'll think you're proving them right. And if you fucking somehow prove you are literally supermodel Jesus, they get madder, cause now it's a competition and they gotta cope with being compared to their "perfect" partner by others and themselves."
"There's no way that's all true." Jazz retorted.
"Oh please, I probably exaggerated a little, but you wouldn't be able to tell for sure. Just know man, sometimes you can think you did everything right, sometimes you might actually do everything right, she still won't like you, or worse yet, she will, and that'll piss her off…"
…
Jazz woke up suddenly, his head throbbed, but less so than before, and he was in a pool of blood. He opened his eyes, which elicited a deep gasp. He was in a dark room, surrounded by nearly a dozen creatures of varying shapes and sizes. The creatures reminded him of monsters of eastern and western folklore. Jazz saw a werewolf snarl, followed by a ghostly woman, maybe a banshee, weeping. The same woman made of water glaring at him with cold eyes, a fox-eared woman with red eyes and a sad smile, and finally, a person that looked like the cross between a humanoid Panda and a Tanuki.
"I thought you said you gouged out his eyes…" the Werewolf growled.
Jazz shivered at the ferocity in his voice.
"I did…" Ebi glowered, I thought I killed him too with that blow to the back of the head, evidently, it seems he's fully digested the powers of the phoenix.
This statement caused a serious atmosphere to fill the room.
"Excuse me…" Jazz began.
"Shut up!" The werewolf roared, "we have no time to entertain the pleas or demands of a murderer!"
Jazz snapped back, "you obviously have enough time to be stupid, I didn't murder anyone, I was attacked by a wizard who tried to burn me alive."
"…then you ate him?" The Panda-tanuki asked.
"No! I mean… I bit him once, but that's because he tried to possess me, I didn't actually attempt to…" Jazz paused and shuddered, he didn't know what came over him when he bit and chewed. All he knew was that there was an overriding desire to do so at that moment.
"What did this wizard look like?" The fox-eared woman asked.
"He was small and chestnut-colored, he wore a bright red robe and had a surprisingly deep voice for his side, despite looking almost like a child and an old man at the same time."
This caused the people to stir. "Was it really Rosuto?!"
Jazz looked around, "I hope you better fucking not think I took the time to ask that bastard's name."
"Disrespectful!" The Werewolf growled.
"Disrespectful, me?!" Jazz smiled, "you tied me up, evidently poked me full of holes to cripple me, and evidently attempted to gouge my freaking eyes out! Now you want me to be respectful?!"
The fox-woman raised her hands, attempting to garner peace. "Please… calm down, both of you." She turned to Jazz, "I am sorry, but the immortal phoenix recently died, its corpse was put on the black market alongside the Bonfan. We recovered the Bonfan, but a member of our staff, a Korropokkur by the name of Rosuto, took the money we would have used to recover the immortal phoenix and disappeared. Eventually, we heard about the Ox-King and his mountain being on fire, and the treasure locked away inside. We thought Rosuto sold the corpse to the Ox-King, but… looking at you now, it's likely not the case. Please, I will do my best to listen, explain what happened, and why I feel the power of both Rosuto and the Immortal Phoenix within you."
Jazz sighed. "Fine…I, along with my friends were searching for the dragon balls."
"They're real?!" The banshee wailed.
"Yeah, don't interrupt me." Jazz sighed, "Anyways, some of us went to Master Muten Roshi for help, and I snuck into the mountain, inside, I found a Wizard, the Korropokkor I guess. He tried to burn me alive and I killed him, but as he was dying he attempted to possess my body and use my cremated remains to restore his health, well, as I'm sure you can tell, my ki is weird, so y'know, he failed. He attempted to try and burn me in his anger, and in retaliation, I used the only mobile extremity, my teeth."
"...So… you ate him?!" The werewolf growled.
"I...I don't know, I felt his ki and magic flood into me, and then everything was a blur, maybe?" Jazz shook his head as he glared at the people. "I didn't eat the Phoenix, however, he stated he did and used half its corpse to cause the fire in the first place."
"I see…" The fox woman shook her head sadly. "Rosuto was always… eccentric, he was one of the few Korropokkor with high levels of magic beyond just the ability to transform and turn invisible. But to think he'd selfishly attack another of our teachers and cannibalize the corpse of a magical beast…"
"Hmph, it isn't like the boy before us is any better…" The werewolf growled, "he's already benefiting from the flames and regeneration of the phoenix."
"No, he isn't…" The panda-man shook his head, "it takes 5 years to fully digest the remains of magical beings, and while one gains powers, they don't reach their limits and can't use all the powers until the 5 years, you can feel the energies within him, even though they are thoroughly diffused within his body like well-brewed tea, the energy is only within him, it has not become fully part of him yet."
"What?!" Ebi, the water-woman, scowled, "but he was able to use the powers! He even used Rosuto's spell!"
"That's just it…" The fox-woman shook her head, "if it was fully his power, he would not need such words, he would have his own spell word or could cast without needing to speak, and Ebi, as strong as you are, you know Rosuto or the Phoenix would have destroyed your flames individually, not even withstanding the two together, this boy's ki is large enough to signify a life dedicated to martial arts."
Ebi scoffed and stormed out of the room.
"...Sorry about that…" The Panda bowed lightly. "You did us a great favor by stopping Rosuto and Monster Carrot, yet we've treated you like this…"
Jazz stifled his curses, and spoke slowly, "I came because I wanted you to teach me the art of transformation."
"What?" The Panda-Man asked in confusion. "Why?"
"Because I want to become stronger, and I learned from Puar, a graduate of your school, that students learn transformation by first eating the transformation seed, which would have awoken the magic in their bodies."
"It requires a lot of studying and much talent, are you willing to give 7 months of your time to finish our Kindergarten course?" The Panda-man asked.
"Pondanuki!" The werewolf shouted at the Panda-man. "You can't be serious!"
"I am…" Pondanuki said forcefully, "we attacked and nearly killed this boy, and from what you can see, he can heal himself. If he wanted to, he could have destroyed this room and escaped, and if he was our enemy, Ebi would have died, and you know that Jorge."
The werewolf looked like he would argue, then spat, "fine… but you better explain to irate parents why a monster eater is in class with their children."
"No," Pondanuki said, "one of us will be his personal teacher."
The beings froze. "NO WAY!" The werewolf shouted angrily, "you won't catch me dead with him!"
Jazz smirked, "that's nice, I don't think you'd be a decent teacher either."
The werewolf glared at Jazz angrily.
"Did I touch a nerve?" Jazz said nonchalantly, "I'm sorry, I'm just very fucking done right now, I don't know what hardship you've gone through, and I'm sorry that humans have evidently harmed and discriminated against your people. But I'm not going to simply hang my head and say sorry for shit I didn't do personally, especially when you decide the best way to make it better is to beat the shit out of me."
"Ah… the true colors." A teacher who resembled a Japanese kappa spoke. "You seem angry and vile."
"Oh I'm sorry, I'm being accused of actively hunting down and eating people for something as stupid and insignificant as magic power, so it's a little stressful." Jazz retorted, "I mean, aren't you a Kappa? Your people are accused of stealing organs through human butt holes."
"THAT'S A MYTH!"
"IS THAT A FAIR MYTH?!" Jazz shouted back, "No! But it's there, and people believe it." He leaned back.
"Do you even want to be our student?" The kappa asked incredulously.
"Obviously." Jazz scoffed, "yes, I want to learn, and I'll be as respectful as possible to my teacher when I am learning, but outside of that, unless necessary, I won't be anything but civil to the teachers and staff within this room." The teachers looked at each other uneasily. "And don't even think I'll pretend to smile around that water-jerkoff!" Jazz's shout reverberated as the chains around him melted and he flexed, ripping them off. "Now…" he began, "where's my stuff.

…
So, this is Jazz's choice, I thought about what kind of decision Jazz would make in the first year (almost) of training. Goku and Krillin will train for 8 months (give or take a week), for the tournament. Jazz had a myriad of options before him. Would he attempt to join them? Would he go train with Bulma? Or would he go try to find the Crane school and learn from Shin. Eventually, I thought the most creative option would be heading to the Southern Transformation School. Now, as I'm sure you all know, I'm a glutton for conflict, so I thought, perhaps we'll make things a little bit fun lol.
As for the teachers, the Southern Transformation Academy, or Southern Transformation Kindergarten, by virtue of being literally called a kindergarten, there will only be one year's worth of class and students. The manga and anime don't really cover the school other than the mention that Puar and Oolong went there, Oolong got kicked out, but Puar graduated. That means that it should take less than 7-9 months (average school year length) to master the art of transformation being taught at the school (at least to the point where there is no time limit). Of course, since Jazz will only be doing self-training in between classes, he won't make the same level of gains as Goku and Krillin, who should both experience a great increase in power. Dragon Ball Movie 6's pamphlet states Namu's power level to be 100, which I regard as relatively accurate, maybe between 80 and 100, because Daizenshuu states that Muten Roshi's powerlevel during the Demon King Piccolo Saga (for which he trained a little), was 139. Namu was comparable to kid Goku until his second round of training, but before that second round, kid Goku was comparable to Roshi. Goku's powerlevel before he began training with Roshi should be somewhere between 13-16, due to Jazz's short influence, Krillin is actually a good bit stronger, I'd say somewhere between 15-20. Both of them should definitely break the 120 powerlevel mark by the end of their training.
Lets see, also, for origins of names: Pondanuki is literally (panda with "a" and "o" switched with the "nuki" of tanuki, a Japanese transforming raccoon spirit). He, along with Pongitsune (the fox-eared woman) are teachers of the school covered from a dragon ball video game. They actually also show up in official dragon ball artwork of the school. So I didn't come up with their names. As for the Wizard. He is what is known as a Korropokkur, a tiny, pixie/sprite-like spirit in Ainu mythology. They are normally a peaceful people who only get angry when insulted or looked upon by humans. As for why I had Jazz gain magic from accidentally consuming the wizard? That's based on Taoist mythology and cultivation. Journey to the West is a story about a Bhuddist Monk joined by Sun Wukong (the Monkey King), or Son Goku (his Japanese name). They go West in order to enlighten the world about Bhuddism, and on the way, they encounter monsters, demons, and Taoist Immortals. Since original Dragon Ball is very inspired by Journey to the West, I wanted to add elements of taoist cultivation, which is rife with people hunting mystical creatures and magical beasts to harvest their organs to gain power. Such an action isn't actually unheard of in Japanese mythology either though. There's a story about a Kitsune who attempted to kill 9 men in a row and steal their livers, as upon eating the 9th liver, she'd be able to fully become human and gain greater power, so the idea of literally absorbing power by eating magic creatures or vice versa isn't unheard of. I mean, even Majinn Buu and Cell sort of did that lol.
