decision either.


"That makes C17 the winner!" Announced Son-Goten




Marron went to the others.


Kuririn looked proudly at his chestnut. "Oh man, what you can do! You are awesome! Why did you give up?"


"But honestly, Marron! We didn't even know that you could fight at all! We would have loved to see more of you," said her mother.


"I wouldn't honestly have won the fight ..." Marron explained.


The others wanted to know immediately what that meant, of course.


Marron said nothing more, otherwise she would be Dr. Revealing letters and she didn't want to do that for the time being.



"Next, Yamcha and the Kaioshin will fight," said Goten.


"I'll definitely lose the fight!" Yamcha said to Gohan.


"I ask the fighters Yamcha and Kaioshin into the ring," said Goten.




Yamcha went straight to the attack.


But the Kaioshin dodged each of his blows with ease. Then he attacked.


Yamcha couldn't evade a single time. Kaioshin knocked him out with three powerful blows in the stomach.


Son-Goths began to count: "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. The winner is called Kaioshin!"


Yamcha got up again five seconds later. "Why did you have to start so brutally?"


"Oh, I'm sorry! I've never seen you fight before, I didn't know that it was too hard for you!"


"Do you mean you overestimated me?"


"You can say it!"




When they were back with the others, Kuririn said: "Hey, Yamcha! I knew that you would lose, but not that it would be that fast!"

"Shut up! We'll see how quickly you can be defeated!"


Kuririn hadn't thought of that for a moment. "Well, Freezer is also stronger than the Kaioshin."


"I don't think so!" Vegeta interfered. "It looks like he's slacked off over the years."


"But Freezer and Dodoria are dead. Do you see their halo? Uranai Baba can hardly have brought them here, then why are they here?", Asked Gohan.


"We're just as perplexed as you are," said Yamcha.




At the same time, Maron met Dr. Fetched letters and now they talked apart from each other.


"I know about the magic lemonade! It makes you stronger," Marron told him.


"You saw that well! How did you come up with it?"


"Do you remember? I was thirsty on the plane and you offered me a drink of it yourself!"


"That's right! Do you want to explain to me why you gave up?Has the potion no longer worked? "


"Yes, but I think it's unfair if that's the only reason I win. How long does the strength last?"


"I don't really know either, it should work for a few hours, but I'm not sure. The man who gave it to me didn't tell me," said Dr. Briefs.


"Anyway, I wanted to ask you to give up the fight too!"


"What? Now that I have a chance to win, should I give up?"


"Come on, you don't need the money, you have enough!"


"That's true, but the feeling of being the strongest is worth it!"


"You've built so many inventions that thousands of people envy you for, isn't that enough for you?"


Dr. Briefs thought for a moment. No, that wasn't enough for him. He also wanted his daughter and grandson to be proud of him. But it was now clear to him that Maron could not be talked out of it."Such a stubborn kid," he thought. "Okay," he said.


"Great! You have to know that Gohan is much stronger than you and he could maybe win the tournament!"


"Ah yes!"


"I can understand if you find it difficult to just give up. In the beginning I really wanted to win, that's why I signed up, but then I realized that others would have deserved victory a lot more."


"It goes on! Now you see Gohan and Dr. Briefs in the fight!" Announced Son-Goten. "Oh dear, that can be something!", He thought.




"Oh no, not my father!" Said Bulma.


"You don't need to worry!" Said Trunks. "After all, he has Gohan as an opponent and he certainly doesn't hurt him too much."


"It's not that! But I'll be terribly embarrassed!"


"Why? You're not fighting!"


"Still, he's my father after all! And the stupid thing is that almost everyone knows us!"



Gohan and Dr. Briefs went into the ring.


"Ring free!" Shouted Goten.


"What should I do?" Asked Gohan himself. "I really mustn't hit too hard just so that he falls out of the ring."


"Remember what we agreed!" Shouted Marron Dr. Letters too.




"How I would like to swap places with Gohan," said Kuririn.




Gohan tried a punch that was not too hard.


But Dr. Briefs ducked at the very last second.


"I'm doing it the safest way," thought Dr. Briefs. He walked slowly towards the edge of the ring.




Marron was happy and thought: "He's going out of the ring voluntarily! Good!"


"What is he up to?" Asked Gohan.




But quite unexpectedly, Dr. Briefs: "Ah, my back!"




The audience was amazed.


"Oh God, oh God, that's embarrassing!" Said Bulma and made herself very small so that no one could recognize her.



"What else was not to be expected!", Vegeta said and shook his head.




“What should I do now?” Gohan was desperate. "If I knock him out of the ring now, he might hold it against me and I don't know how hard to hit!"


Dr. Briefs slammed to the floor. "What do you think you're hitting so fast and hard?"


Gohan looked confused. "But I didn't even meet you!"


"But I had to bend down so quickly, all of a sudden, it's not good for my back! Besides, I'm not the youngest anymore, people have respect for my age!"


"I'm sorry!" Said Gohan now.




Bulma couldn't look at all anymore.


But she had discovered one above her. "Aren't you the daughter of Dr. Briefs, the inventor of Capsule Corporation?"


"No, you must be confusing me," Bulma lied.


"Why are you lying, Bulma?" Asked Oolong.

"Shut up!" She yelled.


"Ah, it's you! Bulma, the daughter of Dr. Briefs! Do you have any idea why your father takes part in the martial arts tournament?"


"No, not the slightest! In old age you slowly go crazy, that's what it will be!"


"Oh yes?"


Bulma nodded still relieved, glad that it was over now. Then she glared at Oolong and pulled his ears.


"Hey, what's that! Stop doing that!" He scolded.


"That's for betraying me, idiot!"




Dr. Briefs was still on the floor. "It will be soon!" He yelled at Gohan. "Are you finally going to help me up?"


"Uh, yes!" Said Gohan and walked up to him and helped him up. "Are you okay?" He asked.


"Almost!" Replied Dr. Briefs. Gohan was now very close to him, on the edge of the ring. He took advantage of that and quickly pushed Gohan out of the ring with his elbow.


Gohan hadn't expected this as he thought Dr. Briefs was really having problems and wouldn't be able to fight anymore anyway.

The audience was amazed.


"Hey, that was unfair!" One shouted.


"Exactly, something mean!"


Son-Goten couldn't believe what he was seeing. But there was nothing he could do, Mr. Hisahara nodded to him, which should mean that the winner was certain. "That makes Dr. Briefs the winner!" Said Goten.


Gohan was really angry now that Dr. Briefs had taken advantage of him. "That was really mean! But you won't get away with it in the next fight, nobody will fall for your trick a second time!" He looked at his little brother.


"There is nothing I can do, Gohan! The rules say that it is allowed, as it is supposedly your own fault if you become reckless!"


"I wasn't at all! I just assumed that Dr. Briefs was really in incredible pain!"


"I'm sorry, I'm a referee, but I can't change the rules!"


Gohan had to put up with it.




Bulma suddenly ran out of the crowd and Trunks followed her right away."Father, what was this act about! Do you know how embarrassing that was ?! Besides, it was unfair!"


"After all, you have to give the audience a show, otherwise the fight will be too boring and besides, I would have won anyway!" Said Dr. Briefs, although he wasn't so sure about it.




Gohan had turned away from everyone, he didn't want anyone to see his anger. Suddenly he heard steps behind him. He turned and, to his surprise, saw Vegeta.


"That you fell for something like that! I would have done it immediately. I would have expected more from you! At least I know that the final with you wouldn't have been more exciting either!"


"That has nothing to do with fighting! Of course I would have won if Dr. Briefs had fought honestly. He probably doesn't understand anything about fairness!"


"You were just too kind, I wouldn't care about his back problems!"


Gohan Vegeta believed that and he resolved not to be so naive anymore.



Bulma, meanwhile, had a serious word with her father until he promised not to put on any more show in the next fight.


"I'd like you to stop all the fighting, but at least that's something!" She said.


Then suddenly Marron appeared. She had a very evil look and in her hand she was holding the magic potion that she had snatched.


"What's going on all of a sudden, Marron?" Asked Kuririn worriedly.


She saw Dr. Letters to. "You didn't stick to what we had agreed at all, and you promised me to give up!" She grumbled.


"Wait a minute, I made no promises," tried Dr. Letter to contradict Marron.


"Yes, you have!"


"Besides, I didn't even use the power from the potion!" He defended himself.


"But that's probably the height! Instead, you pretend to be in pain and
