Kuririn asked Muten Roshi and stepped next to him.


"Somehow I have a feeling for it. And besides, we haven't seen each other for too long that he wouldn't come.", He replied and looked into the blazing sun, which was reflected in his glasses.


It wasn't long before a third glider joined the other two.


Everyone had to laugh when the very battered looking bovine devil got out and said to his daughter that she was driving like a madman and that he almost had a heart attack.


Then he went to Muten Roshi and talked about the good old days.

ChiChi joined Bulma's gossip group and Gohan and Goten went to Trunks, who was now sitting in the grass and thinking.


In the course of the next half hour the others came too.


Jamchu came over and told them about the game that his baseball team had recently won.


Tenshinhan and Chao-Zu resisted all attempts by the others to find their secret hiding place and began to meditate. Piccolo immediately joined Gohan, somewhat isolated from the others, and spoke to him. Yajirobi came along with Master Quince, Dende and Mr.Popo, who had taken extra time off for this day, even if the others seemed questionable whether this could not lead to the end of the world and loudly announced that he was not on that Tournament.


But then a lot of time passed and there was no trace of the most awaited guest.


"Where is he?" Asked ChiChi and looked up at the sky pleadingly.

And then it happened.


ZZZZZIIIIIIIIISSSCHHHHHH


Everyone turned around. He was there. In his orange combat suit with his blue wrist guards and boots that weighed tons, he stood in the middle of the Z-gang.


"Son-Goku!", Almost everyone shouted in confusion. Son-Goku looked puzzled by all the cheering through the rows.


There was silence. Nobody moved. And then......


It was Piccolo who walked up to him first and hugged him, only briefly, of course.


"I'm happy to see you again," he said so that none of the others could hear.


"Me too.", He replied and had to suppress a grin.


Piccolo had barely released Son-Goku, and a whole squad rushed towards him. Kuririn, Bulma, Jamchu, Tenshinhan and Gohan embraced him on all sides.


"I'm looking forward to seeing you all again.", Said Son-Goku and tried somehow to stay on his feet.

Then he saw ChiChi. After he had broken away from the others, he went to her and stopped about a step in front of her.


"Is that papa?" Someone suddenly asked. Son-Goku looked down, puzzled, and saw a black head peeping up behind her legs.


"Is that ...?" He asked and knew the answer immediately.


"Yes, you still have a son. His name is Son-Goten ..", ChiChi said and gave the Goth a nudge.


The 9-year-old looked scared at first, but then he stormed off and jumped around his father's neck.


They both laughed and beamed like one another. The others couldn't help but laugh either.


But it was quiet again when Goku dropped Goten and looked at ChiChi.


She stood there rooted to the spot, tears shot down her face.


"I still can't believe you're really there.", She sobbed and stood still.


Goku grinned. He knew he didn't need to say much to free the unbeliever from her stupor.

"I missed you, ChiChi."


She was already running. Goku spread his arms and caught her. He was so happy to finally have her back. He had been apart from her for far too long. It was a pleasure to see, smell and feel them. ChiChi felt the same way. She never wanted to let go of him again and she knew he would never do that either.


He would stay here forever.


When she had calmed down a bit, she looked up at him. She had completely forgotten how big it was.


And when their eyes met, everything was fine again. Slowly their faces approached and they both breathed an almost non-listening "I love you" before they kissed.


Goku wanted to break away from her after a while, but she wouldn't let him. His kisses were like a drug for her and now she had to catch up a lot and Son-Goku was very happy about it, because breathing wasn't that important to him.





After everyone who wanted to take part had registered, they went to the main hall, where each individual was drawn to determine who came into which group. There were a total of 16 groups, one of which will go to the eighth finals. All groups had their own hall to hold the fights. So the tension was maintained.


Before they could start, however, there was a big opening party, of course one of which couldn't be missing.


Based on the noise, our friends could tell relatively quickly that Mr. Satan had arrived.


The great and alleged savior of the world gave mass interviews again, while his daughter Videl stood annoyed and slapped the microphone out of the hand of every journalist who got too close to her.


"Hey, Videl:", Gohan called to her and waved his arms.


When she saw him, she smiled and pushed her way towards him through the sea of ​​cameras, microphones, questioning journalists and annoying fans.

It took Gohan a while to introduce her to everyone else. But then she went with them to the draw hall.


With the help of Chao-Zus's psychokinethic powers, they managed to prevent everyone from joining a different group and then all they had to do was wait.


After just under two hours, all eighth-final participants were certain:


Son-Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, Bra, Videl, ChiChi, Son-Gohan, Son-Goten, Kuririn, C18, Tenshinhan, Chao-Zu, Jamchu, Mr. Satan, Piccolo and Mr. Popo.


Then it was time to vote for the first eight Kapf pairs. And here you can see what came out of it without Chao-Zus powers:


Fight 1: Goten against Trunks


Fight 2: Chao-Zu versus Mr.Popo


Fight 3: Vegeta versus Mr. Satan


Fight 4: Kuririn versus Bra


Combat5: Goku versus Tenshinhan


Fight 6: ChiChi against C18


Fight 7: Gohan versus Piccolo


Fight 8: Jamchu against Videl


With a loud roar, the gates of the big stadium opened and the referee entered the ring ......

To be continued if desired!
