him.However, he was also a little glad that he wasn't there, because after all he was number one himself.
<br />
<br />
"When will the fighting finally start?" Asked Yamcha Son-Goten.
<br />
<br />
"Uh, when was that?"
<br />
<br />
"You're the announcer!" Said Kuririn.
<br />
<br />
"I can forget something too! Should I ask quickly?" Son-Goten ran quickly to the men who had previously explained to him what the referee was doing.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"When should the fighting begin?" Asked Goten.
<br />
<br />
"They're starting right now. I'm Mr. Hisahara, if you have any questions, please contact me!" Said a man.
<br />
<br />
"Oh yes, I will!"
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"And?" Asked Gohan after Son-Goten was back.
<br />
<br />
“Well, it starts now!” Son-Goten marched towards the ring. "Well, now the fighting starts and Maron and C17 come first!"<br />
<br />
"You forgot to greet the people!" Mr. Hisahara hissed at him.
<br />
<br />
"Oh yeah! Hi guys!"
<br />
<br />
The audience looked a bit puzzled.
<br />
<br />
"Next time please be more polite, e.g. <Welcome>, yes?"
<br />
<br />
"We didn't discuss that at all, but okay! So, I'll ask Marron and C17 in the ring!"
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"Why is Son-Goten the announcer?" Asked Bulma Trunks.
<br />
<br />
He quickly explained the story to her and then they all looked back into the ring, where C17 and Marron would soon be fighting.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"I hope he doesn't hit too hard!" Marron hoped. "I can win, I've drank Dr. Briefs' magic lemonade often enough. Somehow it makes you strong. Where did he get it from?"
<br />
<br />
17 did not know anything about any magic potion and rated Marron very poorly.
<br />
<br />
Maron immediately attacked C17.
<br /><br />
He fended off all the blows except one that hit him in the stomach.
<br />
<br />
"Wow, I'm not bad at all!" She thought.
<br />
<br />
Then she continued to hit C17 vigorously and it had to take a beating.
<br />
<br />
But suddenly he struggled with a punch on her left cheek.
<br />
<br />
"Ouch, that hurts!" Marron thought. "But I'm still better. But if I win, then I haven't actually won my fight honestly, have I? Father is right, I should give up." "I'm giving up!" Said Marron.
<br />
<br />
The audience looked at the little Maron in amazement.
<br />
<br />
C17 didn't quite understand her decision either.
<br />
<br />
"That makes C17 the winner!" Announced Son-Goten
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Marron went to the others.
<br />
<br />
Kuririn looked proudly at his chestnut. "Oh man, what you can do! You are awesome! Why did you give up?"
<br />
<br />
"But honestly, Marron!We didn't even know you could fight! We would have liked to see more of you, "said her mother.
<br />
<br />
"I wouldn't honestly have won the fight ..." Marron explained.
<br />
<br />
The others wanted to know immediately what that meant, of course.
<br />
<br />
Marron said nothing more, otherwise she would be Dr. Revealing letters and she didn't want to do that for the time being.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"Next, Yamcha and the Kaioshin will fight," said Goten.
<br />
<br />
"I'll definitely lose the fight!" Yamcha said to Gohan.
<br />
<br />
"I ask the fighters Yamcha and Kaioshin into the ring," said Goten.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yamcha went straight to the attack.
<br />
<br />
But the Kaioshin dodged each of his blows with ease. Then he attacked.
<br />
<br />
Yamcha couldn't evade a single time. Kaioshin knocked him out with three powerful blows in the stomach.<br />
<br />
Son-Goths began to count: "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. The winner is called Kaioshin!"
<br />
<br />
Yamcha got up again five seconds later. "Why did you have to start so brutally?"
<br />
<br />
"Oh, I'm sorry! I've never seen you fight before, I didn't know that it was too hard for you!"
<br />
<br />
"Do you mean you overestimated me?"
<br />
<br />
"You can say it!"
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
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!"
<br />
<br />
"Shut up! We'll see how quickly you can be defeated!"
<br />
<br />
Kuririn hadn't thought of that for a moment. "Well, Freezer is also stronger than the Kaioshin."
<br />
<br />
"I don't think so!" Vegeta interfered. "It looks like he's slacked off over the years."
<br />
<br />
"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.
<br />
<br />
"We're just as perplexed as you are," said Yamcha.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
At the same time, Maron met Dr. Fetched letters and now they talked apart from each other.
<br />
<br />
"I know about the magic lemonade! It makes you stronger," Marron told him.
<br />
<br />
"You saw that well! How did you come up with it?"
<br />
<br />
"Do you remember? I was thirsty on the plane and you offered me a drink of it yourself!"
<br />
<br />
"That's right! Do you want to explain to me why you gave up? Did the potion no longer work?"
<br />
<br />
"Yes, but I think it's unfair if that's the only reason I win. How long does the strength last?"
<br />
<br />
"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.<br />
<br />
"Anyway, I wanted to ask you to give up the fight too!"
<br />
<br />
"What? Now that I have a chance to win, should I give up?"
<br />
<br />
"Come on, you don't need the money, you have enough!"
<br />
<br />
"That's true, but the feeling of being the strongest is worth it!"
<br />
<br />
"You've built so many inventions that thousands of people envy you for, isn't that enough for you?"
<br />
<br />
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.
<br />
<br />
"Great! You have to know that Gohan is much stronger than you and he could maybe win the tournament!"
<br />
<br />
"Ah yes!"
<br />
<br />
"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."<br />
<br />
"It goes on! Now you see Gohan and Dr. Briefs in the fight!" Announced Son-Goten. "Oh dear, that can be something!", He thought.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"Oh no, not my father!" Said Bulma.
<br />
<br />
"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."
<br />
<br />
"It's not that! But I'll be terribly embarrassed!"
<br />
<br />
"Why? You're not fighting!"
<br />
<br />
"Still, he's my father after all! And the stupid thing is that almost everyone knows us!"
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Gohan and Dr. Briefs went into the ring.
<br />
<br />
"Ring free!" Shouted Goten.
<br />
<br />
"What should I do?" Asked Gohan himself. "I really mustn't hit too hard just so that he falls out of the ring."
<br />
<br />
"Remember what we agreed!" Shouted Marron Dr. Letters too.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />"How I would like to swap places with Gohan," said Kuririn.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Gohan tried a punch that was not too hard.
<br />
<br />
But Dr. Briefs ducked at the very last second.
<br />
<br />
"I'm doing it the safest way," thought Dr. Briefs. He walked slowly towards the edge of the ring.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Marron was happy and thought: "He's going out of the ring voluntarily! Good!"
<br />
<br />
"What is he up to?" Asked Gohan.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
But quite unexpectedly, Dr. Briefs: "Ah, my back!"
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The audience was amazed.
<br />
<br />
"Oh God, oh God, that's embarrassing!" Said Bulma and made herself very small so that no one could recognize her.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"What else was not to be expected!", Vegeta said and shook his head.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“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!"<br />
<br />
Dr. Briefs slammed to the floor. "What do you think you're hitting so fast and hard?"
<br />
<br />
Gohan looked confused. "But I didn't even meet you!"
<br />
<br />
"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!"
<br />
<br />
"I'm sorry!" Said Gohan now.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Bulma couldn't look at all anymore.
<br />
<br />
But she had discovered one above her. "Aren't you the daughter of Dr. Briefs, the inventor of Capsule Corporation?"
<br />
<br />
"No, you must be confusing me," Bulma lied.
<br />
<br />
"Why are you lying, Bulma?" Asked Oolong.
<br />
<br />
"Shut up!" She yelled.
<br />
<br />
"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?"
<br />
<br />
"No, not the least!In old age you slowly go crazy, that's what it will be! "
<br />
<br />
"Oh yes?"
<br />
<br />
Bulma nodded still relieved, glad that it was over now. Then she glared at Oolong and pulled his ears.
<br />
<br />
"Hey, what's that! Stop doing that!" He scolded.
<br />
<br />
"That's for betraying me, idiot!"
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Dr. Briefs was still on the floor. "It will be soon!" He
