by doctorpest054

Some time ago, in a faraway corner of the world, a fantastic adventure began. Now see how the peculiar trio of Goku, Naruto and Yugito get stronger, make friends all over the world, live super adventures and fight epic battles to be the strongest.

2. Chapter 02

Hello people, here your server Psy continues with a new chapter of this Crossover Fic that I'm loving rewriting and remembering moments from two of my favorite Manga/Shonen Anime. Now the journey of our protagonists in search of the Dragon Balls has begun, however, will the Dragon Balls be easy to obtain? Let's find out.

Chapter 02 – The Journey to the Sea and the Kinto'un of Kame Sennin

After the encounter with the Pterodactyl and Bulma having changed her appearance by having urinated on herself, now wearing a pair of boots, gray pants and a blue jacket with a white shirt underneath, our heroes continue their momentous adventure in search of the Seven Dragon Balls. Right at this moment where the sun could already be seen setting in the middle of the sunset, a red and white Kawasaki Kr 250 motorcycle could be seen passing over a bridge, and on it were Bulma, Goku, Naruto and Yugito. "So we just have to find four balls, right? It'll be easy." Goku said with a smile.

"What are you saying? I guess you don't know this being a villager, but the world is a much bigger place than you think." Bulma replied.

"Besides we don't know what dangers or situations we'll face to find the other balls." Yugito added.

"Great! That sounds like a really exciting challenge!" said an excited Naruto.

Though suddenly a sound came from the blue gi boy's stomach.

"I'm hungry." Goku said nonchalantly.

"And me too, wow I should have brought some ramen for a trip." Naruto agreed.

"Good point you guys, plus it's starting to get dark so we'll camp here." Bulma said to which the group nodded in confirmation.

Soon Bulma stopped her bike, being close to an open field perfect for at least setting up a house for the night, so while the rest of him got off the bike, Bulma took out the box where she kept her hoi-poi capsules.

"Well, this huge field is perfect for us to camp." Naruto said excitedly to the group.

"Oh, no way. Do you really think a beautiful and delicate girl like me can sleep in a cold field like this?" Bulma replied to the blond dressed in orange.

"But it's the only way, since there aren't any houses around here. You are quite capricious for this kind of things!" A confused Naruto replied to the purple-haired girl.

"Right, what do you plan to do for it?" the little Son asked, equally confused.

Bulma for her part smiled and was quick to answer both boys.

"It's simple, with Capsules, Capsules." Bulma hummed as she took out a Capsule a little bigger than the ones they had stored.

"Ehhhhh? You mean those little things actually have houses inside them?" asked a surprised Goku.

"They're called Hoi-poi Capsules." Bulma corrected the boy.

"Can it really do that?" Naruto asked Yugito.

"Yes, from what I understand, hoi-poi capsules allow you to store various objects inside them regardless of size, be it shirts, furniture, vehicles and even houses." Yugito confirmed to Naruto who was left with a stunned and surprised look.

"Incredible!" Naruto said to himself.

"Very well, I'm going to throw it there, so get away." Bulma warned the group which did as they asked and moved away.

Immediately after, the purple-haired girl squeezed and threw the capsule a good distance away, a huge puff of smoke appearing along with an animated enatopeia of "Bomb!" and from that came out a spherical style house of considerable size with the number 1 above the entrance and next to the windows were the words "Hoi Poi Capsule N°1".

"Very well, it worked." Bulma said as she began to casually walk to the house followed by an equally calm Yugito.

"In-incredible! He didn't lie! Seriously those things can even have a house! I wish I had one of those and then I wouldn't have to have lived in that filthy apartment. Hehehe." Naruto said in wonder with a toothy smile and ran inside the house.

For his part Goku, although also surprised, was more of horror and disbelief, seeing something he never thought possible, that someone could materialize a completely functional house out of nowhere, which scared him greatly.

"Hey! Are you really not a witch or something like that?!" Said a distrustful Goku as he took out his staff and got into a fighting stance under the strange gaze of Naruto and Yugito, and the annoyed gaze of Bulma.

"But, hey, hey, this looks pretty amazing, Goku, you better come in." The blond dressed in orange told the black-haired man in the blue gi.

"Or are you thinking of sleeping outside?" Bulma asked Goku.

Seeing that the rest of the group didn't find the situation strange, he finally put aside his distrust and decided to enter the house, since although he had no problem sleeping outside, he also thought that it was more comfortable to sleep under a roof and a bed. Once inside the house, Bulma soon touched one of the switches, turning on the lights in the house, illuminating the place, to the surprise of Goku and Naruto.

"This thing never ceases to amaze me! It even has its own electricity!" exclaimed a happy Naruto.

"I don't understand what that ele - I don't know what! The only thing it noticed is that now it's daylight here!" exclaimed Goku in a surprised manner, since he had never seen electricity in action before.

"Huh? You don't even know what electricity is? Wow, I didn't think you were such a country bumpkin Goku." Said a surprised Yugito to see that for this boy all this seemed new and unusual.

Bulma who was also on the same train of thought as Yugito soon came up with an idea and smiled mischievously. She took out the remote from the television and turned it on in front of the boy to his enormous surprise, on the television a program was playing where a musician was playing the guitar in front of an audience.

"Wow! Wha-What is that little guy doing locked in that square box?!" Said a stunned Goku upon seeing the television for the first time and finding it quite strange as he cautiously touched it with his Nyoibō waiting for some reaction from the "little locked up man".

"He definitely doesn't know electricity, I feel sorry for him since he missed out on good series and great Kaijū movies." Said Naruto with a drop of sweat.

"Huh? "Do you watch Kaiju movies too?" Yugito asked Naruto.

"Sometimes when I have a signal, my favorite movies are the Classic Godzilla Movies." Naruto answered enthusiastically.

"Me too! I watch them when they are on marathons, they are very funny, especially the Godzilla vs Megalon from 73 with the flying kick." Yugito answered with the same enthusiasm as Naruto.

"Haha, I thought I was the only one who liked that scene, it is ridiculous and perfect at the same time." Naruto said with a smile.

"I definitely agree, that scene shows the purest spirit of the Kaiju movies and especially Godzilla." Yugito nodded in confirmation.

"Hey, are you guys done with your boring talks about the horrible Kaiju movies?" Bulma said more as an order, while both blondes protested annoyed against Bulma's comment.

"Well whatever, it would be better not to waste time and start preparing the food." Bulma warned and then turned to Goku.

"But first you, you're going to have to take a shower! You really stink!" Bulma said covering her nose.

"Huh? A shower? What's that?" Goku asked, looking away from the television curious about the "shower" thing Bulma said after never hearing that ending.

"WHAT?! That's disgusting!" Bulma, Yugito and Naruto said in unison, totally surprised to see that he didn't even know something as simple as taking a shower.

"Oops! As disgusting as it is, I think I should be the one to shower you!" Bulma concluded, so it was soon seen how the purple-haired girl dragged Goku to the bathroom with her, who had a look of complete confusion at Bulma's actions.

"That he doesn't even know what a shower is, is unnecessary!" Yugito said to no one in particular.

"Oh yeah! It's quite degrading! Although I haven't bathed for days either..." Naruto finished.

"That was also unnecessary..." Yugito answered with a disappointed look with her eyes wide open and a drop of sweat on her face.

"Well whatever, although leaving that aside, the truth is I never thought that someone who is quite cold and reserved would have a taste for Kaijū movies." Naruto said changing the subject.

"Hahaha, right mustache, the truth is I didn't think I would have in common with you that taste for Kaijū movies." Yugito said with her calmest and most serene voice.

"Yeah, I wonder what else we have in common, or do I? Do you like orange?" Naruto asked with an expectant smile.

"Was that really the best you could come up with?" Yugito said inquisitively and waiting for a better question.

"Come on, it was the best I could come up with to start off light, plus orange is a great color." The blond defended himself.

"Ah… Okay, but I expected a better question, because orange looks good but there are better colors, like my two favorites blue and purple." Yugito said.

"You think so?"

"Well, as revenge, I'll ask you something better, have you spied on girls or something?" Yugito asked with a mischievous and mocking smile.

"What?! But how can you ask about it?!" said an embarrassed Naruto with a blush present.

"Come on, say it! From that blush that gives you away, you've at least thought about trying to take a look." Yugito insisted with her smile even bigger.

"Yes! But it was just once! Damn, why do I have to answer this nonsense!" Naruto said, still blushing.

"Hahaha, because it was your idea, and you started with a bad and simple question, at least you should have continued talking about Kaijū, you little closet pervert." Yugito mocked with a small smile.

"Shut up!" An annoyed Naruto shouted.

"And I thought we could talk about more things in common." Naruto said with a pout while crossing his arms and having his eyes closed.

"Come on, don't close yourself off so quickly with me, hehehe, why don't you talk about the things you really like to do?" Yugito suggested.

"Hmph… well, the truth is, it's not that I do much, I really like eating ramen and even more if it's miso ramen, I also like being with my first sensei Iruka, and every time I have inspiration I like to make jokes to the world." Naruto said casually.

" "I like to make jokes", it's funny…" Yugito said thoughtfully and began to take a thoughtful pose and was silent for quite a while, a rather uncomfortable time even for Naruto.

"Huh? What's strange? When I told her that, this girl stayed silent thinking about something." Naruto said to himself.

"Hey are you okay! You're freezing!" Naruto warned as he approached Yugito and moved his hands over her waiting for some reaction from the blonde girl from Kumo.

"I'm fine! Better than ever!" Yugito said energetically and surprisingly which scared Naruto.

"Hey but don't say it like that." Naruto reprimanded still being in a state of shock.

"The truth is that I was remembering several things from the past, I must have been frozen like a weirdo, hehehe, sorry about that." Yugito answered with a small smile and an arm over her head.

"Well, how about you say what you like to do now? And I hope that doesn't seem like a bad question to you." Naruto said.

"Don't worry, those are good questions." Yugito assured and then continued.

"Well the truth is that I don't do much either, sometimes I eat a lot of tekkadon, fried fish, takoyaki and other types of seafood, train and improve as a ninja and lately I'm practicing a new hobbit, playing shamisen, although I'm not that good at just starting to play it." Yugito answered.

"Wow, you really eat a lot of seafood and seafood, and I thought I ate too much ramen." Naruto said.

"But hey, favorite food is favorite food, everyone likes to enjoy it and eat it as much as they can, and I don't blame them for that." Yugito said as she raised and lowered her shoulders at the same time.

"Well, do you have friends?" Naruto asked.

"Huh? Me? Well the truth is… the truth is that… well, Huh? I…" Yugito stammered as she began to rave.

"You only have to say "yes" or "no", why do you hesitate so much?" Naruto asked but got no answer.

"Well if you can't say it's okay I understand, the truth is that until recently I didn't have any friends, nor anyone who recognized me." Naruto began which caught Yugito's attention.

"In my village the vast majority didn't like me to the point that some hate me just for being there and prefer to think that I don't exist, but I still haven't given up and I was able to find people to trust, and even though it's not perfect and there are only four of them I can express myself, be happy and tell my dreams because I feel that they are true friends, or well that's what I think." Naruto finished with a smile which left Yugito thinking.

"I see that you really trust them, the truth is I would like to at least brag about it, but as you have described it, the truth is that I do not have friends." The blonde-haired girl replied.

"Huh? Why? And even more so that you look like a girl who should be very popular." The blonde-haired girl dressed in orange questioned.

"That's the point, I'm not really popular, in fact, I'm the least liked and least empathetic girl in my group." Yugito said with a low face.

"I always stay away from my classmates because I consider that I'm not good for them, and because I can possibly put them in danger because of who I am." The blonde-haired girl finished with a sigh.

"Because of what you are? I don't understand. Could you tell me why?" A confused Naruto asked, but at the same time curious to know what Yugito meant.

Yugito, for her part, seeing the boy thought about it for a moment and answered him.

"I'm sorry, but I can't tell you, it's a secret…"

"Huh? Why secret?! Come on, don't lock yourself away from others out of fear of something you did!" Naruto told her.

"State secret, something that isn't a decision made by me, you idiot!" The girl said annoyed since Naruto didn't let her finish.

"State secret?" the blond man dressed in orange asked.

"Basically something that my Village and Nation protect, in a few words it is information that a foreigner like you should not know, otherwise it could endanger my Village, do you understand?" Yugito told him somewhat frustrated to see that the blond was dumber than he appeared.

"No, I already understood everything since you said "State Secret", then you have been separated from the others for that "secret" although deep down you hate having to do that." Naruto said which surprised Yugito since she did not expect the blond from Konoha to understand it perfectly.

"You are surprised why I know, simple, because I also found out that I have something that was supposed to be a secret that I should not find out about, and for that reason most of the adult people always distanced themselves and tried to avoid me, being because in my childhood I did not have a friend or anyone to relate to." Naruto said to the blonde girl from Kumo.

"Really? "Aren't you lying to make me feel better?" Yugito asked him doubtful of the statements of the boy dressed in orange.

But he denied that it was a lie what he had said, assuring him with a face of complete seriousness to get his point across. And there Yugito saw him as a completely honest person, but what flooded her head now were the questions of "How?" and "Why?" all those doubts were invading her and although part of her did not want to ask since his was also a "Secret" the other major part wanted to know more about this boy, she wanted to know more about Naruto.

However, before either of the two blonds said a word to the other, they suddenly heard a scream of panic coming from the bathroom, which put both Naruto and Yugito on alert, and without wasting time both blonds ran as fast as possible to the bathroom, to see what it was about.

"Huh? What happened?" Both blonds said.

"His…his…his…his tail…it's…it's…it's real!" The voice that alerted Naruto and Yugito shouted in panic, and said voice belonged to Bulma.

For their part, upon seeing what happened, Naruto and Yugito changed from their altered and alert faces to neutral, bored faces with hints of slight disappointment.

"Oh that, you've noticed it until now. It's something natural for Goku." The blond said to the purple-haired girl still upset.

"Although I wonder why this boy has a completely natural tail." Yugito said to mitigate Bulma's doubts.

"Wow, it seems that you don't have a tail too? And remembering my grandfather didn't have a tail either." Goku began, who saw the conversation between both blonds and Bulma.

"You see, it's not normal!" A still upset Bulma shouted at him.

"Although my grandfather was very strange." The boy with black spiky hair finished with a smile as he finished drying himself with a towel.

"You're the weird one here!" Bulma told him, who after assimilating things better began to calm down.

"Anyway, that doesn't matter." Goku said with a smile as he began to dress in his blue gi and then put on his red wristbands.

"You don't care about anything, right?" Naruto, Yugito and Bulma asked when they saw that Goku didn't give the slightest importance to trivial things that ended up being important.

After that incident, another one happened shortly after where Goku went into the bathroom while Bulma was in the shower, because the boy wanted to return the favor of Bulma having bathed him, which the purple-haired girl flatly refused and after telling him that her breasts looked like a butt that Goku didn't like at all, Bulma ended up kicking Goku out of the bathroom for seeing that he was apparently 14 years old. And after that, and Bulma dressing in a pink nightgown to sleep, the group of four soon sat down to eat.

"It may not be Ichiraku's ramen, but it's still a pretty good ramen." Said a satisfied Naruto who had already finished his third bowl of ramen.

"When you said you eat a lot of ramen, you really weren't joking." Said Yugito after taking a bite of the third salmon she brought.

"Same here, you really do eat a lot of food that has to do with fish." Naruto said after slurping a noodle from his ramen.

"At least it's nice to see that two of you liked my food, not like someone who said he was hungry and hasn't even started." Bulma said as she turned to Goku.

"But this food doesn't taste good. The bread is too soft and this black soup tastes too bitter." Goku complained.

"That supposed soup is actually coffee, and because you don't eat everything you're getting small." Bulma said to him to see if the complaints from the boy in the blue gi would stop.

Goku, for his part, had an idea, and with a smile he got up from the table and went to get his shoes and his cane.

"I'll go get a tastier and more energetic meal." Goku said as he finished putting on his shoes.

"Huh? Where are you going?" Bulma asked.

"I'll be back in a while." Goku said with a smile as he tied his staff to his back and then went outside which was already completely dark and invaded by the night.

"I really didn't understand what it was going to be." Naruto said who had just finished his bowl of ramen.

"Leave him, he'll be back soon." Bulma finished as she closed the door.

A few minutes later

After Goku left, the group finished eating, soon Bulma indicated in which room Naruto and Yugito would sleep, in two futons quite comfortable for both blondes. While she was in the living room still waiting for Goku and that whatever he did would not take too long, fortunately Bulma did not have to wait too long.

"I'm back!" Goku's voice outside said energetically.

"That was fast." Bulma said to herself, getting up from the couch where she was to open the door to Goku.

However, when she opened the door, although she found Goku quite well and the boy outlined an energetic smile, Bulma was soon horrified to see what the boy brought with him.

"I've caught a Centipede and a Wolf! We're going to roast it! If you want, call the other two!" Goku warned with a smile while in one hand he held the centipede and in the other he carried his staff with which the wolf was hanging, which lay dead.

Bulma for her part could only scream in disgust and displeasure at the scene, which obviously flatly refused to eat the "junk" that Goku had brought, he who after seeing Bulma's refusals and that apparently Naruto and Yugito had gone to sleep, in the end the boy in blue gi decided to eat the centipede and wolf by himself, which were quickly being roasted in a bonfire that the boy made.

"Are you sure you don't want to and not call Naruto and Yugito? "They'll be ready soon." Goku warned the distant house while Bulma peeked in the doorway.

"Shut up! There's no way I'm eating that stuff you have! Much less are the others going to want to eat your junk!" Bulma flatly denied.

After a dinner with a Wolf and Centipede

When Goku had devoured what he had brought alone, leaving an empty stick and the completely clean skeleton of the wolf, the boy soon entered the house. Bulma, seeing no more space and the guest room occupied by the duo of blond ninjas, in the end had no choice but to let the boy in the blue gi sleep in her room.

"Hehehehe! This futon and mattress are so comfortable. It's been a while since I slept with someone." Goku said with a smile as he bounced happily on Bulma's bed.

"Sleeping together? You're kidding! I'll give you a blanket, Son-kun, you'll sleep down here." The purple-haired girl indicated to the monkey-tailed boy.

"We're not sleeping together?"

"Of course not! And especially since I know you're 14 now. So if you try to do anything weird, I'll scream pretty loud." Bulma warned Goku.

"Grandpa's crotch was really soft and he always let me use it as a pillow. It was really comfortable." Goku said to Bulma.

"Were you planning on using my crotch as a pillow?!" Bulma shouted indignantly, not liking Goku's idea, but things calmed down anyway and Goku finally obeyed and decided to sleep apart from Bulma.

"You say you lived with your grandfather before he passed away, right? What happened to your parents? Are they dead?" Bulma questioned the boy in the blue gi, while the purple-haired girl brushed her teeth.

"I don't know…" Goku said thoughtfully before continuing, but now with a smile from ear to ear.

"I only know that I was abandoned in the mountains when I was a baby, and then my grandfather found me and took me in, hehehe!" Goku finished with a huge smile.

"They probably abandoned you because you had a tail." Bulma supposed before continuing.

"Despite having a rather dark and even sad past, you still continue to smile happily." Bulma finished when she saw that Goku was not at all shocked by the fact that he was abandoned at a young age.

"And you were abandoned because you have a butt on your chest?" Goku asked him.

"It's not a butt! I've already told you several times, idiot! Besides, they didn't abandon me in the first place!" Bulma shouted angrily, then relaxed and explained things better.

"You see, I go regularly to this place called school. But right now I'm on my summer vacation, so the four of us have a maximum of 30 days to collect the Dragon Balls, that's why I'm using my free time as best as possible, not like you who were slacking off." Bulma explained, but when she didn't see a response from the boy she decided to see what was going on.

And to the enormous annoyance of the purple haired girl she saw Goku sleeping peacefully with his silly smile present on his face while his snores could be heard showing how deeply asleep the boy was.

"… Don't fall asleep when someone is explaining something to you!" Bulma said annoyed by the boy's attitude, it would definitely be a very long 30 days.

The Next Morning

It was a new morning in the Land of Fire, the sun was beginning to rise, illuminating the enormous and lush green region full of vegetation and forest, the animals were already beginning to move, and the birds were beginning their morning songs.

In the round house that was very different from the lush forest that surrounded it, you could see that in one of its rooms it was occupied by a black-haired boy sleeping on the floor with a blanket while the bed lay a purple hair just as deep, while in the other you could see two blondes equally deep in sleep each on their respective futon and with a blanket covering them, everything seemed like an atmosphere of pure tranquility and conformity when suddenly.

"GYAAAAAAHH!" A powerful scream from someone sounded waking up those present.

"Huh? What's going on?! Who's screaming?!" said a newly woken up Naruto completely in shock and confused by the scream he just heard.

"That scream was from… Goku, does that mean something happened?!" Came Yugito's voice, unconsciously answering Naruto's question, and both blondes without thinking ran to the next room to see what had happened.

"Bulma-san, what happened?! Why was that scream?!" The girl from Kumo asked the purple-haired girl.

"Oh, it was nothing, apparently Son-kun thought the Dragon Balls were gone, since he screamed "The balls are gone!", and I checked them, seeing that all the ones we have were there. It was just a little scare." Bulma explained as she let out a sigh of relief.

"Oh, it was just that, it would still be worrying if the Dragon Balls suddenly disappeared." Yugito expressed her opinion as she also left her alert state and calmed down.

"Still, she shouldn't have woken us up like that suddenly! She's in the middle of a pretty good dream." Naruto determined that he was a little upset, since he was in the middle of a dream where he managed to be recognized by everyone, he became Hokage and he easily surpassed all his rivals, especially a certain conceited teammate who was on his team.

And while this strange situation was being resolved, soon a shadow was slowly approaching the house where our protagonists were.

"Not yet?! Naruto and Yugito didn't take long to get ready, but you're really slow! If you keep going like this you'll turn into a turtle, you know?" Goku warned Bulma, who was a bit bored of the purple haired girl's slowness when she had just started getting ready.

"Shut up about that turtle stuff! The truth is that you get up really early! Ninjas like Naruto and Yugito always get ready beforehand!" Bulma defended herself from the complaints of the boy in the blue gi.

"Also, you should stop referring to me as "You", since I'm two years older than you, you should call me "Bulma-san", understand?" Bulma demanded.

"Wow, you're really demanding." Naruto said to the purple haired girl who was next to Goku and Yugito waiting for Bulma in the waiting room.

"That goes for you too, Naruto-kun! "Yugito is the only one who refers to me properly!" Bulma's voice came to complain to Naruto as well.

"Oh come on, are you serious?!" Naruto complained.

"So Son-kun, will you call me properly?" Bulma said, still wearing her nightgown as she went out to the living room to get coffee.

"No, saying that is very difficult." Goku said as he watched the drops of coffee fall from a coffee machine.

"How difficult?!" Bulma complained as she drank a cup of coffee, this was definitely not comfortable for her at all.

Yugito for her part looked amused at the scene, although a little sorry for Bulma for having to deal with both boys, an energetic blond who was quite loudmouthed and problematic, and an ignorant boy who was unaware of many things in the world, too many things like showering, expressing himself properly, or even that she is a woman and her differences with men, which last thing Yugito found the most surreal and strange thing about Goku.

Speaking of the latter, after refusing to drink coffee calling it "Bitter soup" like the night before, Goku soon went outside the house to exercise, which soon ran to the nearest rock, lifted it as if it weighed nothing and soon exerted pressure against it breaking it into several tiny pieces. Being proud of his achievement, Goku soon decided to repeat the same action with the next rock, however when he did so he soon discovered that what he picked up was not a rock or some strange object, on the contrary it was a rather large animal, a sea turtle to be exact, which greatly exalted Goku as he did not expect said animal who quickly released it, and despite the sudden spontaneity of the turtle, Goku soon came up with an idea and his previous conversation with Bulma about his delays.

"I got it! She has become a turtle!" Goku said to himself and then spoke to said turtle.

"You see that happens to you for being so slow!" Goku said in a way that he was right while the turtle looked at him completely confused by the boy's words.

"Huh? Hey Goku, who are you talking to?" Came the voice of Yugito who was standing at the door.

"It's that Bulma! She has become a turtle for being so slow!" Goku told her.

"Who are you calling slow?!" Came the unmistakable voice of Bulma that came out next to Yugito and Naruto.

"Huh? It's not you?" Goku asked confused to see that apparently the turtle was not Bulma, who only limited herself to insult Goku with an "You're an idiot!".

"Hey, that's a turtle, right?" Naruto asked Yugito.

"Can't you see that it clearly is?!" The blonde from Kumo half responded annoyed to see Naruto's foolishness for asking her a very stupid and obvious question that fell into the category of asking "Does fire burn?" and "Does water get wet?"

"Anyway, it's very rare to see a sea turtle so far away and in a rather mountainous area from here." Bulma said taking the floor.

"Hey, excuse me… but could you give me a bucket of salt water… and if possible could you also give me some seaweed…" the turtle asked.

"Wow, what a demanding turtle." Bulma said due to the requests, even so the group complied with her demands by bringing her the bucket of salt water.

"Puhhhh! Thank you very much! You've given me back my energy!" the turtle thanked while giving a few burps after having taken all the water from the bucket.

"The truth is that I am… a turtle." The turtle said as if that was a great unexpected revelation.

"That's already noticeable!" Bulma and Yugito told her for seeing that this turtle said something super obvious.

For her part, the aforementioned turtle continued with her story and the reason for her situation.

"As you can see, I'm a sea turtle. I was looking for mushrooms and fungi, but when I finished... I, well... I ended up getting lost. It's been a year since I left the ocean. I've been traveling all this time trying to find my way back, you see..." The turtle explained her situation to those present.

"The ocean? You're traveling in the totally opposite direction!" Bulma warned the turtle.

"She's right, you've really traveled far!" Yugito came along with a map as she continued.

"Let's see... according to this map, the closest place to the ocean is about 120 kilometers from here." The blonde haired girl from Kumo warned the turtle.

"Hyaa?! 120 kilometers?!" The turtle said completely dejected when she saw that it would be impossible for her to return to her home in the ocean.

However, Goku, seeing the situation, decided to help her.

"Hey turtle! How about we take you there?" Goku suggested to the turtle.

"Hey! Would they really do it?!" The turtle said hoping that these young people will help him return home.

"What are you saying?! Don't joke like that!" Bulma complained about Goku's request.

"But why? What's wrong with going to help the turtle?" Naruto questioned her.

"Because it will slow us down! We only have 30 days left! So it's not the time to do nonsense like that!" Bulma expressed her complaints.

"But you're the one who's slow." Goku argued.

"That's nothing but a waste of time! It has nothing to do with us!" Bulma finished refusing to help the turtle.

"Fine, in that case I'll take her myself." Goku finished as he began to lift the large sea turtle on his back.

"As you wish! "I don't need you, I have Naruto-kun and Yugito!" Bulma replied to the boy in the blue gi.

"On second thought, I think I'll go help Goku." The blond boy dressed in orange said to the purple-haired girl.

"What?! You're going to do that nonsense too!" Bulma said, quite angry to see how Naruto decided to help Goku in what she considers a waste of time.

"It doesn't matter! Even if you two leave, I still have Yugito!" Bulma assured, showing how little it will matter what will happen to the other two boys.

For her part, Yugito decided to think about it and after sighing, she spoke.

"Those two may be hopeless fools, but they're right to help that turtle, because I'm going to help them too!" Yugito declared to Bulma's enormous dismay and fury.

"You too! This has to be a joke! "You better stop doing that and leave that turtle!" said an excited and completely angry Bulma, but the other three boys didn't pay attention to her.

"Fine, I'll lead you, if we go at a fast pace it will only take 30 minutes, okay?" Yugito warned which the others nodded while ignoring the complaints of the even more angry Bulma.

"Okay, do whatever you want! But make sure you never come back to me later! If you do, I won't show you any mercy, you know!" Bulma finished who was tired and annoyed of this whole situation and that even Yugito left her just to go help that clumsy turtle.

For their part, the boys, although they heard Bulma's threat, in the end they did not pay attention and ran away from there with Goku carrying the turtle on his back while Yugito and Naruto went ahead at enormous speed, the three boys and the turtle disappearing from Bulma's sight, who only kicked and shouted insults towards Goku, Naruto and Yugito for being useless, lazy and stupid, and that she hoped she would never see them again.

"Hey, are we really not going to go back with her?" Naruto asked the blonde girl.

"Don't pay attention to Bulma's nonsense, she herself said that deep down she was scared of venturing into the Lands where the Shinobi are, so she's going to come back crawling like that, so we're going to be her." Yugito assured him, who wasn't worried about Bulma's threats and insults.

"Do you think so?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, it's most likely, in fact, remember that Goku has a Dragon Ball, not to mention the one I have." He said pointing at the bag where Goku's ball was while showing his backpack to the blond boy from Konoha.

"Oh, I see, I still don't see why it bothers her to help someone else? And even more so that we have time to find these things." Naruto finished.

"Yes, although I ask myself, why did I have to be with someone annoying like Bulma-san? Even though you two are really stupid, you're nicer than her." Yugito replied.

"You should have saved yourself that part about calling me and Goku "dumb." Naruto said a little annoyed with a drop of sweat.

"Hehehe, but it's true, and the truth is that you are quite nice and curious "dumb" people." Yugito backed up her first comment while smiling.

For his part, Naruto couldn't contradict that comment, even though it still bothered him to be called a dumb, Naruto still couldn't help but smile since despite how strange and sometimes elusive Yugito was, this girl was quite nice.

After a walk and being halfway along the road, soon the group of three boys stopped when they heard the recognizable sound of Bulma's motorcycle.

There was the aforementioned girl in said vehicle who soon shouted to the group.

"Hey, wait for me! I have no other choice, so I'll have to come show you the right way!" The purple haired girl warned, managing to reach the group.

"See, I told you. In the end, she was the one who came to look for us." Yugito told Naruto, to which he nodded and in fact came up with an idea to half-get revenge on Bulma while a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

"Oh wow, but if she is our "dear" protégé, didn't you say that you don't need our help?" Naruto told her as a question, although he said it in a mocking way, seeking to irritate the purple haired girl.

"That's not funny at all, you know?!" Bulma answered, trying to avoid the subject.

"Hehe, most likely our "dear" protégé Bulma felt alone and unprotected, look who ended up crawling in the end." Naruto told her mockingly as he resumed his path.

"Hohoho! Don't say stupid things! I only care about Son-kun's Dragon Ball!" Bulma declared, trying to hide that she had actually returned out of fear.

"Heh, someone forgot that I also have a Dragon Ball." Came Yugito's voice which also has a mocking tone just like Naruto.

"In a few, if you're scared." Goku added who also joined the conversation.

"Just…just shut up! We better end this once and for all!" Said a defeated and annoyed Bulma.

After that the group now with the purple hair continued on their way towards the vast ocean and continued like that for a good while each time getting closer to the enormous body of water, however, this group is being observed by a monocular of someone who saw specifically what the group is carrying, and said subject who spies on the group is a large bear with brown fur and a mohawk hairstyle, he has a scar on his left eye and carries a large sword that was sheathed. He wears very dark blue boots, white pants and armor of the same color as his boots; On top of this he wore an olive yellow cloth and over this a larger red cloth, both held together with a belt. This bear, seeing the "loot" that these fools were carrying, began to lick his lips with quite a bit of gluttony and hunger.

"Hehehe… These seem to be carrying something very valuable." Said the thieving bear with a malicious smile while lowering his monocular.

The thieving bear, seeing what seemed like easy prey, without thinking twice decided to wait for the group in the middle of the road ready to assault them, and it didn't take long for the group that was carrying the turtle to approach where it was.

"Hey! Stop right there all of you!" The huge humanoid bear warned with his huge sword already unsheathed and ready to slit the throats/cut these kids in two, if, according to the bear's character, they did something stupid.

For their part, the group stopped in surprise, not expecting to be attacked, at least not so soon, with Bulma being the most frightened by the enormous imposing figure of the huge bear bandit.

"Haha! Hey you, the boy in the blue gi! Why don't you give me the turtle you have with you? Since turtles are my favorite food!" The bear bandit demanded, drooling from Goku's mouth.

"Don't-don't worry... sir... we'll give it to him immediately... Come on Son-kun, give it to him!" A very scared Bulma begged Goku.

However, the monkey-tailed boy refused and stuck his tongue out at the bandit in rebellion.

"Oh… hohoho, I see you're refusing boy, aren't you? If you don't hand over that turtle to me nicely, then I'll have to cut you and your friends in two." The bandit threatened with his wicked smile still present, hoping that the boy would listen to reason.

"Gokū already told you no, so if you don't want me, the Great Naruto-sama to beat you up, you better give up, you stupid ruffian." Naruto declared confidently pointing a finger at the bandit.

"A little cocky…but Naruto has said it quite clearly, if you don't give up then we'll beat you up!" Came Yugito's statement with determination that also agreed with her companions.

"Y-You idiots! Don't act like heroes…just give him the turtle!" A Bulma who was already shaking in fear and sweating a lot begged.

"But we already told him that we won't give him the turtle." Goku calmly replied to the purple haired girl.

"Hehehe! Since you three have refused to hand me the turtle out of kindness… Then, I'll eat you three first hand!" The bandit sentenced with a malicious smile as he prepared his sword to cut and dismember these insolent brats who dared to challenge him.

"You better get down." Goku said to the turtle who immediately obeyed and walked away to some nearby rocks, where a completely frightened Bulma also fled to avoid being on the receiving end.

After that, the huge Bandit Bear was quick to launch an attack against his opponents with the sword blade trying to cut the boys in two, Goku easily dodging it, while Naruto was also able to dodge it, but he did so with more difficulty. However, the one who was unlucky and was cut in two was Yugito who… turned into lightning and sparks that electrified the huge bandit, causing him damage. It turns out that the Yugito that the Bandit Bear cut was a Kaminari Bunshin that quickly electrified the bandit upon contact.

"I'm over here!" The real Yugito shouted from behind the bandit.

And immediately after, the girl threw several kunais and shuriken at the bandit that embedded themselves in his torso, arm and leg, making him bleed slightly, although it didn't cause him much damage.

"Shi! So they're Shinobi, huh? It doesn't matter… The damage you've caused me has only made me angry!" The Bear Bandit proclaimed with slight annoyance in his voice.

He soon lunged at Yugito with the intention of cutting her in two for real this time, however, the Kunoichi from Kumo was faster and managed to dodge the bandit's powerful slashes that could break the ground, some of the failed slashes against Yugito ended up hitting and cracking the ground, despite this the blonde girl decided to counterattack with some punches and kicks that managed to push the bandit back slightly, but they helped Yugito get distance and get closer to Naruto and Goku.

"Damn! This guy is pretty tough!" Yugito proclaimed as she approached her companions.

"What should we do?" The blond dressed in orange questioned his blonde companion.

"This guy is extremely resistant, but he attacks at close range, what we should do is trick him with our cloning techniques and attack him with a strong blow to knock him down." Yugito explained.

"One hit, huh? "Well then I'll take care of this guy." Goku proclaimed confidently and went after the bandit.

"Wait Goku! You'll just be an easy target if you go straight for him!" Yugito warned Goku of his bad move, but her warnings fell on deaf ears.

"Hahaha! Idiot if you attack like that you'll be easy prey!" The Bear Bandit proclaimed as he raised his huge sword.

"Die!" The bandit shouted as he swung his blade at high speed.

However, just before the blade hit him, Goku quickly dodged it and jumped along with a somersault to get behind the Bandit who barely noticed his movement.

"He's fast!" Naruto proclaimed surprised at Goku's speed while Yugito nodded in agreement.

"What are you waiting for! Now is our chance to escape!" Bulma said who was at a distance from the two blondes, still not caring about leaving Goku behind.

"Eh? What are you saying! Goku is in front of that guy! "We just have to take him down when he shows an opening!" Naruto warned the purple haired girl.

"Bulma-san, Naruto is right, with Goku's speed he will easily be able to stall that guy long enough for me and Naruto to hit him from behind." Yugito declared as she continued to watch the solo fight between Goku and the Bandit Bear.

"Hahahaha! You're pretty fast, kid... You'll be a good match for my sword." The bandit declared.

The Bandit Bear soon continued his onslaught against Goku, launching slashes, cuts and attempted cuts that Goku failed to dodge without difficulty, the bandit thinking that he would soon have him cornered soon launched a downward attack in order to severely cut Goku, however, the boy disappeared into a blurry figure before the cut reached where he was.

"Look! It's our chance!" Yugito said as she saw an opening in the bandit, to which Naruto nodded in agreement.

However, before the two blonde boys could form seals for a technique, Goku with a smile soon appeared standing on the Bandit's nose, thanks to the Bandit being very huge and Goku himself being too small to fit in there.

Goku wasted no time, taking a stance and launching his special physical technique.

"Jan-ken! Gū!" Goku said and launched a powerful punch against the bridge of the Bear Bandit's nose causing great damage that made him bleed and scream excessively, to the point that the damage he did was enough to make him fall to the ground completely unconscious or maybe even more than that.

"Peace! Ready, we can continue advancing." Goku proclaimed as he landed safely on the ground with a smile.

For their part, the group was stunned and very amazed by Goku's feat, with Bulma and the turtle being the most surprised.

"T-That boy is amazing!" The turtle said hesitantly at Goku's display of strength.

"I-I knew he was strong...but I didn't think he was that strong."

"Wow! Incredible! Goku is incredibly strong!" Naruto proclaimed enthusiastically, while the aforementioned Goku smiled.

"I-Incredible... What strength Goku has! He's definitely much stronger than an average Genin and may even be much stronger than a Chūnin!" Yugito said in amazement, also expectant of the strength of the boy with a monkey tail.

"Still, there's something I still have doubts about..." Goku said, changing his expression and going to where the sea turtle was.

"Are you really tasty, just like he said?" Goku asked the turtle, causing the turtle to start shaking in fear.

"Huh?! No, no, no! I don't taste good! My taste is extremely horrible! Everyone knows that! Ahahahaha!" The turtle said with a nervous smile trying to convince the boy otherwise, fortunately, Goku believed him.

"Okay! I created you, by your shape I don't think you taste delicious." Goku finished as he put the turtle back on his back and the latter sighed in relief.

"Well, now we will continue on our way and hope there are no more bandits." Yugito warned the group and they nodded and continued on their way to the sea.

However, something that this group ignored was an event that was happening in Konohagakure Village, due to the lack of someone, and yes, dear readers of this Fic, the people close to Naruto are wondering where the hell the blond Genin went. So…

Konohagakure Village

In the lush forest that surrounds this Village and in its center being a Mountain with the face of its leaders the Hokage, there is a rather tall building, the Hokage Residence where the aforementioned lived, right now the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen was using for the tenth time in the day his crystal ball to find a certain scandalous blond who had disappeared for more than a day and a half without a trace, delaying the mission with his team that Naruto himself had been asking for so much, which consisted of escorting a bridge builder to his country of origin, nothing difficult and that would keep the scandalous blond satisfied, however his sudden disappearance was quite disconcerting and unexpected, and even more so taking the carefree attitude of the boy, making the Hokage fear the worst which sent his squad of ANBU in search of Naruto's whereabouts, still without results yet. "It's useless, without being able to detect Chakra here in the Village, I can't use the Tōmegane no Jutsu to find him." Hiruzen told himself with a sigh of defeat, while inhaling his pipe, to calm his nerves.

As hard as he had tried, he hadn't been able to find any clue of Naruto's whereabouts, and he feared that something bad had happened to the boy or that he had even been kidnapped by some foreign Shinobi. He only hoped that at least his ANBU would have better luck in finding Naruto's whereabouts.

"Hokage-sama called me," came a monotonous and bored voice.

"Yes, and as always late, but at the same time at a very opportune moment… Kakashi." Said the Kage while giving permission to let Kakashi through.

One of their best Jōnin, with silver hair and a characteristic mask covering his face and his bandana covering his left eye, and wearing the same blue suit and green tactical vest that any of the Konohagakure ninja wear, is always with his bored appearance and with his only visible eye immersed in reading his favorite book.

"Have you been able to find him?" Kakashi asked, still looking at his book.

"No. Despite how much I've tried to locate him, I haven't been able to find him. There's no doubt that Naruto is outside the Village, and I'm worried about what could have happened." Hiruzen replied.

"That doesn't sound very encouraging, what do you think could have happened to Naruto?" Kakashi said, his bored expression changing to a more serious one, even his gaze leaving his book as his gaze now focused on his Kage, waiting for an answer.

"It's too early to think about what could have happened to Naruto, but surely something ended up forcing him out of the Village, I highly doubt that Naruto left of his own free will." Hiruzen concluded.

But, before both could say anything else, soon an ANBU with a bird mask appeared in front of the Kage's desk.

"Hokage-sama! We have found news and what possibly happened to Uzumaki Naruto!" said the ANBU.

"Say it at once." Said the Hokage allowing his subordinate to speak.

"Yes! According to the testimonies we have collected we have been able to determine that Uzumaki Naruto was outside the Village to train!" The ANBU reported to continue.

"However we have been able to discover that he was doing his exercises very close to the river of the West Valley here!" The ANBU finished.

"Let me guess, possibly one of the Giant Climbing Fish that pass through the area at this time of year passed by and... Well, knowing the history of those fish, it ended up swallowing Naruto, am I wrong?" Hiruzen said, seeing how things were going, while Kakashi could only sigh, his student had definitely faced a hungry issue, literally.

"Yes, Hokage-sama! We found several kunais and shuriken thrown carelessly! Possibly the boy tried unsuccessfully to defend himself from the Fish that ended up devouring him!" The ANBU warned and then added.

"Anyway, we have managed to determine the exact route that the Fish take this year, in the hypothetical case that the boy is still alive and was able to escape! And the route where they go is... Paozu Mountain!" The ANBU finished.

And that information caused absolute silence in the room with frozen looks and some fear from both the Hokage and the silver-haired Jōnin.

"Are you sure?" Hiruzen asked, wanting to think he heard wrong.

"Definitely, Hokage-sama! That Fish must have gone to that dangerous region!" The ANBU confirmed to his leader.

"I see, this complicates things… you can leave now." Hiruzen said, to which the ANBU nodded and then left the room.

"This is serious Hokage-sama, if Naruto is in that place, he is possibly in danger, let me go for him, Hokage-sama!" Kakashi said totally serious to the point that his little orange Icha Icha book had been put away, showing Kakashi how serious this situation seemed to him.

"Although I understand your concern and normally I would allow you to go with me and the rest of the ANBU to look for Naruto, I am afraid I will have to deny your request." The Hokage said firmly.

"But, Hokage-sama…!" Kakashi tried to protest, but was interrupted by the Kage.

"Listen Kakashi, you and your team have already taken a Mission right now, so we can't deny it now, otherwise, no matter how small the mission was, just by rejecting it after having started it without any apparent justification it would end up reflecting a weakness on us that the other Villages could take advantage of and weaken us. I hate that too, but we have no choice but to do it and not endanger our Village." Hiruzen explained, who also had a tone of annoyance with himself.

"… Okay, Hokage-sama…" Kakashi said, nodding at his leader's orders.

"You better inform your team that Naruto's absence is due to him being unwell, while I and some ANBU will take care of finding Naruto and bringing him safely to Konoha." Hiruzen informed, to which Kakashi nodded and then left from there. "This is really too much trouble, at least Danzō hasn't found out about this yet. In any case, if Naruto has really ended up in Paozu Mountain, then there I can count on the assistance of someone stronger than me, even any other Kage, the Warrior Son Gohan." The Hokage mused to himself, hoping that in addition to still being alive, and in the best case scenario, Son Gohan had found Naruto and given him shelter in his house.

On the outskirts of the Village

At the huge doors of the huge Village stood for more than two hours three people, one of them a middle-aged man with gray hair, glasses, a big beard and dark eyes, wearing a sleeveless V-neck shirt with an obi, pants, a pair of sandals and a pointed hat on his head, who had a bored and slightly annoyed expression on his face being Tazuna, a bridge builder that Team Kakashi had to escort to his home country, the Country of Waves. For their part, the other two people standing in front of the entrance of the Village were two young people of the same age as Naruto and Yugito, these are Naruto's teammates, Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura, Sasuke has black eyes and spiky black hair with a blue tint. Sasuke's hair is long and hangs over his face as bangs. Wearing a navy blue, short-sleeved shirt with a high collar, white shorts, and white arm and leg warmers, Sakura has fair skin, green eyes, and pink hair. Sakura wears a red, short-sleeved qipao dress, with slits on the sides accompanied by a zipper and white circular designs. She also wears dark green tight shorts with a shuriken holster around her right thigh, blue sandals, and the standard Konoha forehead protector worn as a headband. These three were somewhat tired of waiting for the two remaining members, and even more so that the Mission had to be delayed for a day, definitely something that was not pleasant for anyone.

"Good morning everyone." Came the calm and carefree voice of Kakashi, who was coming behind with his backpack walking casually with an eye smile adorning his face.

"He's late!" Sakura complained about her Sensei's lateness which already seemed to be a common habit.

"You see, there was this old lady with her things and tasks so I decided to help her." Kakashi excused himself shamelessly, his eye smirk still present.

"Yeah right, liar!" Sakura complained of her Sensei's excuses.

"He's always like this…" Tazuna said, speaking to no one in particular.

"By the way, where's Naruto?! I haven't seen him for over a day which is very strange of him! Is he taking too long too?!" Sakura questioned.

"Now that you mention it, that stupid blond midget I haven't seen since I first saw you two." Tazuna said shamelessly.

"Maybe, he got lost somewhere." Came the stoic voice of Sasuke who spoke for the first time, also noticing the absence of his loudest and most troublesome companion.

"Oh right, I almost forgot… Ahem, you see I'm afraid to inform you that Naruto won't be able to accompany us on this mission." Kakashi informed the group.

"Huh? Why is that Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked, quite surprised by this situation.

"You see, Naruto had a bad case of diarrhea that ended up making him very sick, so he is at home totally incapacitated." Kakashi said, which surprised Sakura and also Sasuke, although the latter quickly returned to his stoic and emotionless appearance.

"Really? I really do feel sorry for Naruto, he may be noisy and all, but he was the most eager to complete this mission, how about we see him before we leave, Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura suggested.

"I'm sorry, but that won't be possible, the nurses have forbidden us to visit him, and that would delay us even more with the mission." Kakashi informed the group.

"I see, the truth is that it makes me a little sad how suddenly Naruto has happened." Sakura said.

"There's nothing to worry about, knowing him, he'll surely be in great shape when we get back." Sasuke said as he began to walk out of the village.

"Yes, Sasuke is right, if we finish this mission quickly we'll be able to see him faster, too bad since Naruto won't be able to see beaches." Kakashi finished as the rest of the group began to leave the village towards the Land of Waves.

While with the Dragon Ball Search Group

After continuing their journey, and without any other incidents, the group soon found themselves with a beach full of palm trees, a wide field of sand and above all the huge ocean in the distance crowning the view.

"We did it! We have reached the ocean! And I can enjoy its beautiful view on this beach!" shouted a happy Naruto with excitement.

"It's the ocean! There's no doubt about it, we really did it!" said the turtle equally excitedly and with tears of happiness falling down his face.

"No one doubts it." Bulma said to the turtle.

"Wow! It's the biggest river I've ever seen in my entire life!" said a shocked, but at the same time happy Goku for seeing the sea and the ocean for the first time in his life.

"You really live in a huge place." said Goku to the turtle.

"You really have saved me! I'm very grateful! Thank you very much!" said the turtle with joy and enthusiasm as it finally returned to the huge body of water after a long year.

"Don't worry, you can go to the sea now." Yugito warned the turtle.

"Oh right… Excuse me, could you wait a little longer? Because of all this, I'm going to come back and bring you a gift." The turtle warned the group as they watched it begin to enter the open sea.

"A gift?" Goku and Naruto wondered.

"Will it bring a treasure?" Bulma supposed.

"Or maybe a princess under the sea, like in that story about the fisherman who helped a turtle." Yugito said another possibility.

"Whatever it is, I still wonder, what will we do while it comes back?" Naruto asked the group.

"Well, since we're on a beach, it's better to make the most of it." Bulma warned those present.

Soon the boys began to play on the beach, from testing the water and cursing for not having brought a swimsuit, laughing at Goku for drinking directly from the ocean water and it being very salty compared to the spring and river water he was used to, some splashing and water war games between Naruto and Yugito getting both quite wet, and building sand castles, and they continued like this until Goku stood up to look at something in the distance in the sea.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Bulma asked when she saw Goku suddenly get up.

"It's the turtle from before, and it's coming with someone on top of it." Goku said.

"Huh? Really?" Yugito said as she stopped kneading the sand she was playing with, followed by Naruto.

"You're right! Who will be that one who will bring that turtle?" The blonde from Kumo wondered.

"Maybe it's a princess!" Naruto suggested.

"No, the complexion of the person carrying the turtle from before seems more like that of a man, and an old one in particular." Yugito warned her partner.

"Now that you mention it… Yes, he seems to be an old man!" Naruto confirmed.

"Wow, you three have eagle eyesight! I still don't understand how you can see so far!" Bulma said, as she could barely see a blurry view on the horizon.

Although soon that view became more visible as she got closer to the beach, and the person carrying the turtle was better distinguished, a man of medium height, short, bald and with a prominent white beard. You could see that he was wearing sunglasses, a red-orange Hawaiian shirt, beige shorts and a purple turtle shell tied on his back, and in his hand he carried a brown cane.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting!" The turtle warned along with the old man he was carrying.

"Hello!" The old man greeted the group as he jumped off the turtle.

"So you brought an old man…" Bulma said in a neutral tone as she looked expectantly at the situation with the others.

"Hey, hey! Why did the turtle bring that old man?" Naruto whispered to Goku.

"Who knows?" Goku said equally dismayed and wondering about the old man who brought the turtle.

"I see you have helped my turtle, I appreciate it." The old man spoke as a way of thanking the group.

"Excuse me sir, could you tell us who you are?" Yugito asked the old man formally.

"Me? I am Kame Sennin!" The man now identified as Kame Sennin introduced himself.

"Kame Sennin?" Naruto, Yugito and Bulma asked.

"So tell me? Who of those four boys have helped you?" Kame Sennin asked his turtle.

"The two blondes and the boy in a blue gi." He pointed at the turtle.

"Oh, I see! Allow me to congratulate you on your hard work. I have a wonderful gift to give you as thanks." The old man said to Goku, Naruto and Yugito.

"Huh? A gift?" The boys asked.

"Come to my Immortal Phoenix!" Kame Sennin shouted to the sky to said mythological animal awaiting its arrival.

"Huh? A Phoenix?! Really?!" Naruto and Yugito said excitedly, hoping to see the mythical bird, which increased the expectations and excitement of the group.

However, after several minutes of waiting, nothing came, nor did it appear in the skies.

"Nothing is coming…" Bulma said in a monotonous tone.

"… This, Sennin-sama…"

"Huh? What's wrong?" Kame Sennin turned his gaze to his turtle when he saw that he had to tell him something.

"…remember that the Immortal Phoenix died last year from food poisoning." The turtle reminded his owner.

"Really?! Oh, right that's what happened, now that you mention it…" Kame Sennin said after remembering what happened with the legendary bird.

"It can't be! A Phoenix…!" Yugito said in a tone of disbelief.

"A bird that is immortal…!" Naruto added in the same tone of disbelief.

"…He died from poisoning!" Bulma finished with the same disbelief and even disappointment in her voice.

"Hmmm. I was planning to summon the Immortal Phoenix and give you all eternal life, but that won't be possible anymore…" Kame Sennin began to himself as he brought his thumb and index finger to his beard in contemplation, thinking what he could give these young people now until something occurred to him by snapping his fingers.

"Fine! In that case, I'll give you this instead…" The old man said and then raised his voice and called out to the sky.

"Come to me! Kinto'un!" The old Kame Sennin proclaimed to the sky.

"Huh? Kinto'un?" Yugito questioned.

However, before anything else, a small golden cloud soon came flying from the same sky at enormous speed towards the beach where they were.

"A cloud is flying towards us!" Said an astonished Naruto, while the others except for Kame Sennin and the turtle nodded foolishly and equally astonished, and soon said golden cloud stopped right where everyone was.

"This is Kinto'un. I'll give it to you." Kame Sennin explained to the group.

"How do we eat it?" Goku asked confused by seeing the strange cloud.

"It's a magic cloud! Neither you nor anyone else can eat it!" The old man with a turtle shell scolded him for such ridiculousness.

"But old man it sounds similar to Kuri Kinton and is the same color! Are you sure we can't eat it?" Naruto insisted.

"I already told you that you can't!" Kame Sennin said as a scolding to Naruto.

"Now that I remember you called it Kinto'un, right?" Yugito asked.

"That's right, why do you ask young lady?" The old man questioned her.

"When I was a little girl, in my village I heard old legends about clouds of a characteristic golden color, and the special thing about them is that they give you the ability to ride them and fly through the skies with them at will, the name of those clouds is Kinto'un, the truth is I thought that despite sounding very exciting, all that unfortunately was nothing more than myths... But if you have called this cloud then it means, what is this cloud...?" Yugito said by way of explanation to end up questioning the possibility that the cloud in front of her was that same cloud from the old legends.

"I see that you are well informed girl. That's right, it is just as you said, this cloud allows you the ability to fly and be able to fly through the skies freely." The old Kame Sennin confirmed to the blonde which amazed her and the others except Bulma who was somewhat skeptical.

"Even if that old legend is real! How is it that someone called Kame Sennin who is related to turtles, has a cloud like that?!" The purple haired girl questioned the old man.

"Hey! Don't be so picky about those details!" Kame Sennin said as a way of avoiding the subject.

"So! If we ride that cloud, we can fly in the sky?!" An excited Naruto asked accompanied by a "Tell us?!" from Goku and Yugito.

"Amazing, isn't it?!" The old man said with a smile, making the three boys happy.

"Great! Who would have thought that the legend they told me turned out to be true in the end...!" An anxious Yugito said, ready to ride the cloud, but was interrupted by the old man.

"However, it is necessary to have a particular quality to be able to ride it." Kame Sennin said in a sermon-like manner.

"A quality?" Goku, Naruto and Yugito said in unison.

"That's right, to be able to ride Kinto'un, you need to be people with a pure heart, in short, be good boys with noble intentions. I'll give you a demonstration!" Kame Sennin explained and then jumped onto Kinto'un.

However, when the old man jumped to try to mount and show a demonstration to the three young men, instead of riding on said cloud, it ended up bouncing him instantly and the old Kame Sennin ended up hitting his back against the floor of the arena.

"AAAYYY! My back!" The hermit complained as he began to rub his sore area, while Bulma and also a little Naruto and Yugito, in the background laughed out loud at the old man's misfortune.

"Are you okay?!" The Turtle asked worried about his owner as he went to help him and help him stand up.

"What happened?!" The turtle questioned.

"I-I don't know... How strange..." Kame Sennin said to himself.

"Let me try!" Goku said to later jump towards the golden cloud while there were protests from Naruto and Yugito when they were not told the order in which the three would get on the cloud.

Soon, to everyone's surprise, Goku was able to freely ride Kinto'un without any problem.

"YAAAAA! I can ride it! I can ride it!" said the boy with a monkey tail happily.

Later, he decided to test Kinto'un's ability. In such a short time, Goku could be seen flying through the skies without any problem, circling the entire area and performing maneuvers with the cloud, while everyone else looked on in surprise at what had happened.

"This means that cloud is real! YEAHU! Well, I'll be the next one to ride it!" said an anxious Naruto.

"No way! I'm going to be the one to ride it!" replied Yugito, equally eager to test Kinto'un.

And while the two argued and later began to play rock, paper, scissors to see who would ride Kinto'un after Goku, for her part, Bulma decided to talk to the old hermit.

"Instead of waiting for a turn to ride, Dude, why don't you give me one of those too?! … And well, the two of them too." Bulma suggested to Kame Sennin.

"Did she help you too?" Kame Sennin asked his turtle.

"No, she was the only one who didn't do anything." The turtle denied.

"What do you mean no?! What about the salt water I gave you?!" The purple-haired girl claimed to the turtle.

"In any case, unfortunately for you, the only Kinto'un I have is the one the boy in the blue gi is riding, hence why he has to share it with the other two boys. Although I can give you something else instead…" Kame Sennin warned him and then got nervous and hesitated.

"S-Sure… Y-Yes, you go first… Show me your panties first!" Kame Sennin asked excitedly and with a lascivious smile to Bulma.

"Huh? "T-The panties?!" Bulma asked somewhat fearfully to which the old man nodded with a smile.

"Sennin-sama! But what kind of condition is that?! How can someone of your position ask for something like that?!" The turtle claimed to its owner.

"What's the problem with that?! A hermit of my status can afford to see some panties from time to time!" Kame Sennin apologized for his perverted request.

"Now I understand why he couldn't ride on top of Kinto'un…" The turtle said in a disappointed whisper which its owner heard.

"You shut up!" Kame Sennin demanded to his turtle.

"Well if it's just the panties, in that case…" Bulma said to herself.

"I won!" Came the voice of a victorious Yugito who looked quite happy, accompanied by a discouraged Naruto.

"I'll ride Kinto'un after Goku!" Victorious Yugito with a smile from ear to ear.

"It's not fair! That should have been me!" Naruto complained.

"Oh come on, don't get so moustaches, you can still ride her after me." Yugito assured him to try to calm Naruto's anxiety as they soon approached where Bulma was talking to the old man and the turtle.

What both boys didn't count on was that they saw the exact moment in which Bulma lifted the huge pink nightgown she was wearing over her waist, exposing a certain area and revealing something very disturbing and disturbing for both blondes, a reaction that the turtle shared when he was in front of the girl, while the old pervert of Kame Sennin got something much better than he expected, which ended up causing him a nosebleed from seeing that scene.

"Wow, that was embarrassing, hehehe!" Bulma said, pulling down her nightgown, leaving it in its original position before showing it all while having an embarrassed smile and a slight blush.

"H-Hey… you saw it, right?" Yugito asked Naruto, her eyes rolled back, completely pale and with no emotion present in her voice as if they had been ripped from her soul.

"Yes… an image that I won't be able to erase from my mind because of how sudden it was…" Naruto answered with the same ghostly tone of voice, being just as pale and disturbed as Yugito.

"Y-You saw that! That was an exciting image! It was much better than I imagined!" Kame Sennin whispered with a lascivious smile present to his turtle.

"S-Sennin-sama!" The turtle scolded him.

"And good thing you give me to give." Bulma asked for her reward for having fulfilled the old hermit's request.

"Huh? Oh, that's right!" Kame Sennin nodded, remembering his promise and began to think about what he could give the purple-haired girl.

'I'll have one more thing that's interesting. Should I show her my underwear? Although she'll probably get angry.' And while Kame Sennin was thinking, tilting her head upwards, Bulma soon saw something hanging from the old man's neck.

"Hey, old man, what are you carrying!" Bulma asked him.

"Huh? My underwear?" Kame Sennin asked with a slight hint of hope.

"I'm not interested in that, you fool! I mean the necklace he has on his neck!" Bulma corrected/scolded Kame Sennin while pointing at the aforementioned necklace.

"Oh, this?" Kame Sennin asked while pointing at his necklace.

"That guy… is a hopeless pervert." Yugito said quite upset after recovering from her initial shock to which Naruto nodded with the same annoyance.

On his part returning with Kame Sennin and Bulma, the first had already taken off his necklace showing a huge orange stone in its center.

"Beautiful, don't you think? I found it when I was diving at the bottom of the sea 100 years ago." The hermit explained while holding the necklace that had the ball.

Looking more closely, Bulma realized something unexpected and good for them.

"Hey, come see this!" Bulma warned Naruto, Yugito and Goku, who quickly came, the latter over Kinto'un where Bulma was.

"Look what this ball really is!" The purple haired girl warned.

"Huh? Is it what I think it is?" Said a surprised and expectant Naruto.

"If it is, it's a Dragon Ball!" Yugito confirmed upon seeing it.

"It has three stars, so it must be the San Shinchū." Goku said after counting the number of stars on the Dragon Ball.

"Remember that there was a Dragon Ball that was quite far south, it must be this one." Bulma warned the group.

"Good! With this one we already have four Dragon Balls!" Yugito said, while Goku and Naruto nodded, while Kame Sennin and the Turtle looked at them confused and strange.

"Wow, it seems that ball in the end seemed more valuable than it seems?" The old man muttered to himself.

"Well now, since Goku is here… It's my turn to ride Kinto'un!" Yugito said excitedly and without thinking twice she jumped towards the cloud hoping to ride it, but to the girl's bad luck, the cloud didn't let her ride it and Yugito ended up falling face first onto the ground.

"Hahaha! It seems that a show-off failed! Well now it's the future Hokage's turn, the great Uzumaki Naruto-sama!" Naruto said with enormous enthusiasm jumping towards the cloud, but just like what happened with Yugito, the cloud also rejected Naruto and ended up throwing him onto the cold sandy ground of the beach.

"No… it can't be! How come I can't ride it?!" Naruto complained with Anime-style tears running down his face.

"For me it's unfair, that I can't ride it! Why when I discover that a childhood legend is real in the end I can't enjoy it?! It's not fair!" Said a Yugito with Anime-style tears running down her face in a depressed tone in a comical way for such an event.

"Ahem… Apart from that, it's lucky that you found us this Dragon Ball! It would have been very difficult to look for it under the sea! Thank you, we'll take this ball if you don't mind!" Said a grateful Bulma ignoring the comical complaints and curses that were thrown at the cloud.

"I haven't told you yet that I'll give it to you!" Said Kame Sennin in a more serious tone.

'If I sell it around, maybe I can get a lot of money with it.' The turtle hermit thought to himself.

"Well then…" However, before Bulma could do anything she was interrupted by Naruto.

"Hey! Hey! Calm down! There's no need for that… if you want I'll make sure the old man gives us the ball." Naruto assured the purple-haired girl.

"Huh? And how will you do that?" He questioned Bulma.

"Just watch and see." Naruto said with a sly smile on his face and then turned in the direction of Kame Sennin.

"Hey old man! Watch the ultimate technique! Oiroke no Jutsu!" Naruto shouted, a huge smoke screen appearing, and from it came out a female version of Naruto, quite older and for Kame Sennin's perverted perspective, a girl who was too sexy.

"So, Kame Sennin-san? Could you give us the Dragon Ball?" The female version of Naruto said in a flirtatious and provocative tone.

"It…it…it's all yours!" Kame Sennin said as he exploded in another nosebleed attack while offering the San Shinchū to the group.

"Hooray, we did it!" Naruto said, already detransformed and back in his original form with the ball in hand.

"Hey, you could have told me you could do that before!" Bulma scolded him while hitting the blond on the head.

For her part, Yugito was left blank and somewhat embarrassed by such a stupid technique used by the blond from Konoha, although she couldn't complain, it was effective in helping them in their objective, no matter how ridiculous the method was.

And well Goku, being Goku, I don't understand anything about the situation.

"In any case, we already have her! So long live!" Naruto encouraged, followed by Bulma and Goku.

"Hey, why do a transformation? And why in that form a bit…?!" The Ni'i whispered to him, still embarrassed by the situation.

"1. The Oiroke no Jutsu is a more useful technique than it seems and it is effective.

2. Would you really have preferred that Bulma had…?! Bu-Well, you already know." Naruto also answered in a whisper to Yugito.

"No… and in fact that is a sight that I prefer to forget…" Yugito answered when she saw what Naruto was getting at.

And while this was happening, the perverted Kame Sennin cursed himself for not having brought a camera and having captured those wonderful moments for all eternity, and enjoying it to the fullest.

And after a few farewells, and some more regrets from Naruto and Yugito about not being able to ride Kinto'un, Bulma and the others soon said goodbye to Kame Sennin and his turtle and returned along the path they came back on, while Kame Sennin and his turtle went into the sea to return to their Island.

"How exciting! Today they taught me two really beautiful and wonderful things! Living so much was worth it!" Kame Sennin said to himself, while his Turtle could only sigh in dissatisfaction with its owner's perversions.

"Even without caring that we can ride the Unjust and Silly Cloud! See how good it was for us to help that turtle!" Naruto said to the group to which Goku and Yugito nodded.

"We also managed to get one more Dragon Ball!" Yugito added.

"Despite the good, all that was just a coincidence… Hohoho!" Bulma said, downplaying the matter.

'Hehehe... These have been a few days full of excitement and challenges, and although I feel bad for my team, this mission to find the Dragon Balls is better than that one of escorting that old drunk that the old man gave us, I bet they haven't faced any enemies.' Those were Naruto's thoughts thinking about his team.

With Team 7 somewhere in the South of Fire Country

However contrary to what Naruto thought, despite Team 7's slow start to their mission to escort the bridge builder, which was indirectly Naruto's own fault, after starting the mission and after Sakura asked about the existence of more ninjas in other nations, which started a small conference by Kakashi about the Five Great Nations and their Villages, as well as the name of their leaders, shortly after the lazy Jōnin's explanation ended, the group was soon attacked by two ninjas, and despite the hectic start, Sasuke was soon able to take care of one of them, while Sakura took care of safeguarding the Tazuna, ending the assault when Kakashi appeared and knocked out both ninjas. Right now they had tied them up while they found out the reason why these ninjas had attacked them.

"They seem to be Chūnin Level Ninjas from Kirigakure Village, who are known to fight to fulfill their goal regardless of their lives. These people weren't very smart to hide in a puddle of water, and even more so since it hasn't rained in many weeks." Kakashi informed his group.

"So if you already knew where these two were, why did you let the brats take care of everything?" Tazuna questioned him.

"Apart from seeing how my students perform in a situation like this, it was also to see what the objective of these two was." Kakashi said and then turned to Tazuna.

"What do you mean?" Tazuna asked somewhat intimidated by the Jōnin's look.

"Well in short it was to see if they were going after us for being Ninjas, or against you, and for those I determined is the second option. In short, you have lied to us about the scope of this mission, we are only supposed to protect you from common bandits and thieves, but by not informing us that ninjas would also go against you, which qualifies you in a B Rank or even higher, a mission that would cost you more. I imagine you have your reasons for hiding this information, but lying about the rank of a mission is a very serious offense, to the point that we can leave you to your fate." Kakashi said in a monotonous tone, although with a certain touch of threat directed towards Tazuna

"Ugh… Given the circumstances, and that you protected me anyway, I have no choice but to tell the truth." Tazuna said with a sigh of defeat, and took a breath and some time to continue.

"The truth is that as you say, this Mission is actually much more complicated than what I reported to your Village, and as you say this mission should actually be a B rank, maybe even an A rank, and it can be a lot for your students and even for you." Tazuna began in front of the expectant gaze of the three ninjas.

"That is because I am being sought by a terrifying man who hopes to see me dead." The old man reported.

""A terrifying man"? Who is he?" Kakashi questioned the man.

"You've probably heard of him. He's a billionaire business and shipping industry tycoon, Gatō." Tazuna revealed.

"Gatō? You mean Gatō, the owner of Gatou Company?" Kakashi asked, getting an idea of who was going for the builder.

Exactly, that's the one. On the outside, he may seem like an ordinary businessman who made his fortune and business like any other businessman, but the reality is that he is the head of a criminal underworld, who works with any kind of criminal and even with Shinobi teams, whether it be selling drugs or smuggling. His influence has caused several industries and companies to go bankrupt and led to the ruin of several coastal countries that are around the Land of Water." Tazuna explained to the group before continuing.

"As is the case of the Land of Waves, which Gatō set his sights on a year ago, and using his influence in his business, and also using violent and repressive methods, he took total control of the Maritime Industry of the Land of Waves, and if you control all the trade routes of a country that depends heavily on them, in the end you end up controlling the entire country. With Gatō controlling all the routes of the Country makes it impossible for help to arrive from outside and foreign countries, but there is one thing that Gatō fears and endangers his domain, and that is that the bridge that I myself am building is finished and connects to this continent." Tazuna finished his explanation of the serious situation of his country.

"I see, then that bridge that you are working on would allow you to give hope to the Country and to kick that Gatō out of the country, hence why he wants you dead, sir." Sakura said to herself coming to her own conclusions.

"So that means that the ninjas who attacked us are Gatō's men." Sasuke added.

"Anyway, if your Country is in a serious situation, why don't I report all this instead of lying about the rank of the Mission?" the masked Jōnin questioned the old builder.

"The Land of Waves is not a prosperous country because of the crisis we have suffered since the Civil War that occurred in the Land of Water and its Ninja Village, and that crisis only worsened with the arrival of Gatō, to the point that not even the Daimyōs of my country have much money, and I don't have much either, which is why paying for a B-Rank Mission or higher is impossible for me." Tazuna explained and added.

"If you guys leave me right now, the next time you attack me this time I will die and the hope of my country too. But… That doesn't matter guys, hehehe! You are not to blame for anything and you don't need to get involved since it is not your problem, hehehe! The only bad thing that will happen besides the total ruin of my country is that my ten-year-old daughter and grandson will be devastated, and they cry a lot, a lot! "And my daughter will also become bitter, she will curse and hate the ninjas of Konohagakure Village for the rest of her days! But like I said that has nothing to do with you guys! So don't worry about me, hahaha!" Tazuna said laughing at what was clearly an emotional blackmail which worked when he saw that Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura stared at the old man with annoyance and in the end the three had no choice but to lower their heads.

"Well! Since we don't have many options left, then we have no choice but to continue accompanying him until he is safe in his country." Kakashi said with his eye closed in a smile, but also with his brow furrowed as he mentally cursed for having to go on a really annoying and horrible mission.

"Oh really? Then I thank you very much!" Tazuna said in a grateful tone, although his mind was thinking about something else.

'Hehehe, that worked perfectly.' Tazuna thought with a triumphant smile as he made a peace sign to us spectators.

"Man, this mission is really annoying. That Naruto makes me envy his devilish luck in getting out of this horrible and annoying mission." Sakura said to herself with annoyance in her voice.

With Bulma's Group and the others

"Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow! Why did you do that?! I don't understand what I did wrong?!" Goku complained as he was rubbing his machine gun wounds that Bulma had given the boy.

"Shut your mouth! I won't forgive you for taking my panties off!" said a clearly angry Bulma after finishing putting the House in a Capsule and leaving it in the capsule box.

"But I don't understand why me and Yugito ended up equally riddled with bullets?!" said Naruto who was also rubbing his gunshot wounds that Bulma had caused him.

What had happened after returning from her meeting with Kame Sennin, was that after entering the house Bulma realized that she had not worn her panties all that time remembering the scene where she pulled up her nightgown and well she did not like it too much when she realized that she showed too much, and it was all because to Bulma's horror it was all the fault of the very stupid Goku for having taken her panties that morning, but that was not all she also realized that Naruto and Yugito had already discovered it and the very shameless ones did not even deign to tell her their situation, which obviously provoked Bulma's fury and she ended up taking her Uzi and then riddling the poor boys with bullets.

"That's what they earned too for not having warned me! Bunch of blond idiots!" Bulma scolded her still upset, after that incident and leaving Goku, Naruto and Yugito comically badly injured, the purple-haired girl had changed her clothes to a white sleeveless shirt and pants of the same color with brown shoes and blue gloves.

"Well leaving that sad situation behind… It will be better to start moving, we are lucky the next balls are very close to the other, one seems to be near a colony town in the Western World and the other is in a coastal country called the Country of Waves." Bulma reported already calmer.

"Oops! R-Really? Oops!" Yugito asked, while complaining about her wounds and hoping that they would heal quickly.

"Yes, since you and Naruto-kun can't ride Kinto'un I'll let you ride my Kawasaki, while me and Son-kun will go on Kinto'un." Bulma said to the blonde haired girl.

"Huh? Could someone like you really ride Kinto'un?" Naruto intervened with an inquisitive look.

"Huh? What are you trying to imply?!" Bulma questioned him, somewhat annoyed, intuiting what the blond dressed in orange was trying to get at.

"Someone like you, with an annoying and angry attitude, won't be able to ride Kinto'un." Naruto told her in his condescending tone.

"He's right, that old man from Kame Sennin told us that only people with a pure heart can ride Kinto'un." Yugito added, agreeing with Naruto.

"What are you saying! I'm good, pure, and chaste!" Bulma exclaimed, annoyed by the accusations from both blonds.

"That's not being pure of heart, and even more so from someone who's too impulsive." Yugito added as she pointed out the wounds on her, Naruto, and Goku, plus the ones that were already beginning to heal, and even more so at a very fast pace on Naruto and Yugito.

"So what?! They deserved it!" Bulma refuted.

"Well, try it, and if you fail, you'll have to give me that bike for myself." Naruto said in a condescending tone.

"Fine! But if I prove to you that I can ride it, then you'll have to give me those bandanas you're wearing and Yugito will have to give me her Dragon Ball!" Bulma accepted the bet by putting her own condition to which Naruto and Yugito nodded and agreed without changing their neutral faces.

At that Bulma jumped and just as Naruto and Yugito guessed, there was no way Bulma was pure to ride Kinto'un, so the cloud dropped her face down to the ground.

"Hahaha! You see! Well that means I won a motorcycle!" Naruto victorious with a mocking voice.

"Besides someone who owes us an apology for riddling us!" Yugito added also with a victorious and mocking tone.

"Hey, his wounds are gone, why?" Goku asked them, who was riding on Kinto'un.

"Huh? Hey, now that you mention it, I don't feel pain anymore, how strange… And seeing it, the same thing happens to you Yugito, why is that?" Naruto questioned.

For her part, seeing that pointed out, the blonde-haired girl was amazed and saw her back where her wounds had disappeared and she no longer felt the pain.

'I see, this is the power of the Bijū that I possess, the Nibi, and it has regenerated me from my wounds… But, why did the same thing happen to Naruto?' Yugito questioned herself.

'It's a mystery, don't you think? ...' A voice came from Yugito's subconscious.

'Nibi, so you heard me, huh? You know why that happened to that boy…' Yugito said to her Bijū.

The Nibi, a huge bakeneko with two characteristic tails, wrapped in animated flames of cobalt blue and black. And with heterochromatic eyes, the right one yellow and the left one green and without pupils soon spoke.

'Who knows... I've seen strange things, and even more so on this trip...' The Nibi spoke.

'That doesn't help me!' Yugito answered her Bijū.

'Well without data and without something, I can't guess why that same thing happened to him... But well, as I said, instead of that you should rather talk to him about yourself, maybe he'll understand you and accept you for who you are.' The Nibi said to the blonde haired girl.

'I can't do that! No... I don't think he'll accept me...! Despite how clumsy he is...! 'He's a good boy and he's very nice...!'

'You see him as the closest thing you've ever had to a friend, right? Well, aside from that, it's more because of how shy you are and I've actually seen more people who would be willing to be your friends. If you keep being so elusive and unfriendly, he'll soon want to get away from you, Yugito.' The Nibi insisted to Yugito.

'No!… No!... No, I can't… Most of my village looks down on me for it and not meeting their expectations, my life was detestable and hard… for being a Jinchūriki… It would only make him hate me, and also with Bulma and Goku, because despite everything, and that I am actually taking this mission without permission from Raikage-sama… For a long time I have felt happy and free, and I have started to think that I can fulfill my dream of being Raikage one day…' Yugito answered in a negative, but at the same time melancholic way to her Bijū.

'Ugh… Believe me, I don't say it to be bad or anything, but to help you. But if you really don't accept yourself, then how can I help you Yugito.' These were the final thoughts of the Nibi before ending his final conversation with his Jinchūriki.

"Hey you, you're okay! I said we're leaving now…!" Naruto shouted at Yugito who hadn't reacted for a while.

"How strange, why is she staying...?" However, before Goku finished she was interrupted by Yugito.

"I'm ready to go! Hahaha!" Yugito warned suddenly and spontaneously which scared the others.

"...You are really weird sometimes..." Goku murmured.

In any case the group left from there, with Naruto happy to have a new motorcycle, with Yugito going with him, with Goku happy and commenting that his companions were going slow and with Bulma who was riding another more advanced motorcycle completely annoyed and complained about Goku's comments, now with the group with Four Dragon Balls in their possession they head towards their next objective, however what our heroes don't know is that they will soon meet someone truly dangerous.

Somewhere in the Eastern World

"You said they failed! You said you were Efficient Ninjas, that's why you invested a lot in it!" Came a voice that seemed to be upset.

"Stop mumbling so much." Came another voice which seemed to intimidate the other one there.

"I'm just saying it...! Because you managed to defeat them, you surely have Elite Shinobi...!" The first voice muttered.

"Well, in that case I'll go, and there won't be any more inconveniences..." Came the second voice until he added.

"Hey, what was next in your joke?" Said the second voice showing that it was quite annoying and less intimidating than at the beginning.

"Kiahahaha! Well no problem I'll continue it... you would say something like "I am a Strong and Powerful Swordsman" and at the end Shu would end up saying, "In the end those two idiots killed each other, and they were forgotten for the rest of history..." and all for betraying each other, Kiahahaha!" The first voice came, changing its tone and ending up revealing that it was a woman.

"Hahaha!" Now that's funny. Fools who don't think about themselves end up very badly." Said the second voice while two other voices that were behind him, began to laugh in unison.

"Kiahahaha! For you, idiot readers who thought it was Gatō talking to my annoying, conceited partner Zabuza-kun! Here's someone unexpected! The strong and invincible Ringo Ameyuri-sama! Chatting with Pilaf and his two lackeys, Shu and Mai… by the way." Said the first voice now identified as Ameyuri also naming the others present in the room. Ameyuri being a woman of very short stature compared to the average height of a common woman. She has long red hair, light brown eyes, and along with a Kirigakure forehead protector, she also wears a simple cloth around her head, distinctively tied on both sides so that the ends of the material stick out upwards, while the rest of her hair flows downwards. She wears a loose, long-sleeved striped shirt with a dark obi around her waist, black pants that get very loose near the ends, resembling hakama, striped legwarmers, bandages tied loosely around her neck, and distinctive jagged shark-like teeth.

"You are as funny as you say… and I also hope that you are indeed helping me find certain items." Said Pilaf, a small, blue, imp-like creature wearing a green, red, and black robe with a ruffle at the collar. She also wears blue pants and black shoes and a multi-colored hat. In the middle of her robe is a kanji meaning "fried rice." Beside him were his faithful subordinates, Mai and Shu, Mai is a rather tall woman with blue eyes and long black hair with bangs. She wears a teal trench coat with a red star insignia on each shoulder, a brown belt with a gun holster attached from the right hip, beige pants, and brown combat boots; Shu is a short, anthropomorphic Shiba-inu dog with red or light brown fur covering his entire body and tan face and paws. And he wears a ninja uniform consisting of a purple hood, a purple kimono with a yellow shirt underneath, purple hakama pants, a pale blue sash, black tabi socks, and straw waraji sandals, and on his back was strapped a wakizashi (Japanese short sword for the readers' information).

"Kiahahaha! Don't worry, I will bring them without fail, those things called Dragon Balls." Ameyuri assured Pilaf.

"But it will be difficult for you, according to the radar there were three balls that are together and they just found another one, currently being Four Dragon Balls, and they are heading at a considerable speed towards two Dragon Balls that are very close to each other." Mai intervened, reporting the situation.

"So, that means that someone else is looking for more Dragon Balls, right?" Shu asked his partner who nodded in confirmation.

"A group, huh? It doesn't matter, in fact, we can let them do the dirty work for us." Ameyuri warned which made the trio who was with her pay attention to her.

"What do you mean by that?" Pilaf questioned her.

"It's very simple, if that group already has Four Dragon Balls, let's calmly let them go for the Fifth, and while they take care of it, I will go for the Sixth Dragon Ball and intercept them in the middle of their path, while you position yourselves around the place of the last Dragon Ball." Ameyuri explained her plan.

"Oh, I see, hehehe! It is an excellent plan, but when you go for the Sixth Dragon Ball, send that ball to me immediately, while you take care of the other Five, understood?" ordered Pilaf.

"Yes, yes, yes… there is no problem." assured Ameyuri.

"Alright, Shu! Report where the region of the two Dragon Balls that are very close to each other is?!" demanded Pilaf to his subordinate to which the anthropomorphic dog nodded and went to check the radar they had.

"Pilaf-sama! Those two Dragon Balls are near a coastal region, with one of the Dragon Balls being in the Land of Waves!" reported Shu.

"The Land of Waves, huh? Sounds interesting, and even more so for the plot of this Fic, Kiahahaha! "Well then me and my boys will take care of it, sparks and a burning fire will come out of a Phoenix, Kiahahaha!" Ameyuri said as she stood up on her way to fulfill her Mission.

"Hey, Pilaf-sama, do you think that funny, but at the same time quite strange and crazy chick will make it?" Mai questioned her leader.

"Relax, there is nothing to worry about, she is a very powerful Ninja from the Village of Kirigakure and not just anyone, she belongs to its most Representative Elite Group, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist." Pilaf said confidently.

"But Pilaf-sama, hadn't they disintegrated because they were in conflict with themselves? And even more than half of them deserted their home village, should we really be confident?" Shu intervened.

"There's nothing to worry about, that chick will at least give us a Dragon Ball, and anyway if something bad happens I already have alternative methods to get the Dragon Balls," Pilaf assured.

Now the situation is clear, a new group competing for the Dragon Balls has appeared, Son Goku, Uzumaki Naruto, Ni'i Yugito and Bulma are confident that nothing will happen to them on their trip if they expect that enemies will soon approach, while Team 7 and the bridge builder are waiting to face an even more complicated challenge to reach the Land of Waves... And how dangerous will Ringo Ameyuri be? All this and more in the next chapter of "The Great Adventure of Goku, Naruto and Yugito".

"Here is a spoiler, I am quite scary for those three! Kiahahaha!"

Well people, with this we end this chapter, quite long and longer than I thought, now with Goku with Kinto'un alone for him and to the enormous frustration of Naruto and Yugito. Now what will happen to our beloved group, also why will Ameyuri break the Fourth Wall so much that this Chapter is so strange? Anyway, we'll see those doubts later. Without further ado, see you next time. Your dear Psy says goodbye, Bye.
