Another way is through a trade - off of abilities. The Saiyans could offer to teach the lions how to fight better in exchange for learning about the spiritual and natural aspects of the Pride Lands. Vegeta could train the lion warriors to be more disciplined in combat, while Rafiki could teach the Z - fighters about the connection between all living things. This way of interacting would not only lead to interesting battles but also to a deeper understanding between the two groups of characters.
They could also interact through a common goal. Let's say there is a dark force that threatens both the Dragon Ball Z universe and the Pride Lands. Characters like Gohan and Simba could lead their respective groups to fight this common enemy. Gohan could use his intelligence and fighting skills, while Simba would use his leadership and knowledge of the Pride Lands. In the process, they would share strategies and learn from each other's fighting styles.
Some characters might be inspired by the concepts. For instance, if a fanfiction has a really cool new power - up idea for Gohan, he might think about how he could develop in a similar way in his own world.
Another concept could be a fusion of the Dragon Balls and the concept of the 'Circle of Life' in The Lion King. Maybe the Dragon Balls are scattered across the Pride Lands and the characters from both universes have to work together to find them. In the process, they learn from each other's values. Simba could learn about the importance of constantly training and getting stronger from Goku, while Goku could understand more about nature and the balance of life from Simba.
Goku would probably be very excited to meet Naruto. He'd be interested in Naruto's unique abilities and might immediately challenge him to a friendly sparring match to test their powers. Naruto, on the other hand, would be in awe of Goku's Super Saiyan transformations and might try to learn from him. They would likely bond over their shared love for fighting strong opponents.
If characters from different universes in this fanfiction were to interact, it could be really chaotic. For example, a character from a more technologically advanced universe might be completely baffled by the ki - based powers in the Dragon Ball Z universe. They could try to analyze it with their technology, which might annoy the DBZ characters. On the other hand, a DBZ character like Goku might be intrigued by the different fighting styles and abilities of characters from other universes. He would probably want to spar with them right away to test his own strength. Vegeta, being the proud Saiyan he is, might initially be dismissive of characters from other universes but then see them as a challenge to overcome.
Vegeta's personality is all about power, honor, and pride as a Saiyan. Bulma, being an Earthling, has a personality that is more about creativity, curiosity, and love. Their interactions are full of these two different worlds colliding. For instance, when Bulma is excited about a new invention, Vegeta may not initially understand her enthusiasm, but he comes to respect it because he sees how it can help him in his battles or in protecting their family. And Bulma, despite Vegeta's sometimes gruff exterior, knows that deep down he has a good heart, especially when it comes to her and their son. Their relationship is a constant dance between their distinct personalities.
They could interact through training sessions. For example, Goku could teach some of the Naruto characters how to better control their energy, similar to ki control. In return, Naruto characters could show Goku and others some of their unique jutsu. In a harem setting, the female characters from both sides could be observing and learning as well, which would create interesting interactions and potential relationships.
Goku would be really excited to meet all the different heroes in the DC universe. He'd probably want to spar with everyone right away. Flash would be intrigued by Goku's ability to move at high speeds using his Ki. They could have a friendly race or competition to see who's faster in different situations. At the same time, Piccolo could team up with Martian Manhunter. They both have the ability to sense things from a distance and could use their skills to detect threats to both universes.
The main difference is that the abridged fanfiction of Dragon Ball Z is likely to have a different take on the story. So when Akatsuki watches it, they're seeing a more modified version. Dragon Ball Z is the original, while the abridged fanfiction may cut out some parts, add new jokes or even change character personalities a bit.
A Kryptonian in the Dragon Ball Z universe could potentially be a very powerful addition. Their natural abilities like super strength, flight, and heat vision could make them a force to be reckoned with. However, they would also face challenges as the Dragon Ball Z world has its own power scale with ki-based powers. They might have to adapt to the different fighting styles and power sources. Maybe they could learn to use ki in addition to their Kryptonian powers, or they could find a way to combine the two in unique ways.
In a fanfiction, their interaction could start with Bulma needing Roshi's help for a mission related to the Dragon Balls. Roshi would be hesitant at first, but Bulma would convince him with her charm and intelligence. As they journey together, Bulma would constantly be tinkering with her gadgets, which Roshi would find both fascinating and a bit annoying. They would also have moments of deep conversation, where Roshi shares his long - lived experiences, and Bulma shares her scientific insights.
