Chapitre 475: Piccolo and Shen
During the night, it rained heavily outside again. The rumbling thunderstorm rang out among the clouds, seemingly beating the drums of war in advance for the competition, which affected the streets of the southeastern island at night with much less noise, and the pedestrians on the street were rushing back to avoid the rain.
Coming to the hotel arranged by Son Goku and others, they packed their luggage, and then each returned to their rooms for the next day's competition to make the final preparations. On the envied eyes of Master Roshi and Oolong, Son Goku was held in the same room by both Bulma and Chi-Chi with arms around them.
Thunder rumbled outside the window, rain poured down, boom, lightning cut through the air.
On the other side of the city, a figure clad in a white head covering walked the streets, completely ignoring the disturbing lightning.
The next day.
The sun rose, the sky was red, and due to the heavy rain last night, the early morning sky was extraordinarily white.
After breakfast, the participants of the World Martial Arts Tournament came to the Martial Arts Temple one after another.
Son Goku, Krillin and other people wearing orange martial arts clothing into the martial arts hall, because of the experience of the previous sessions of the Martial Arts Tournament. Son Goku and they were familiar with the warm-up exercises, to start the preparations for the competition. As the Earth's martial arts flourished, the number of participants in the successive martial arts conferences grew, and by the time of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, the number had exceeded 1,000 people.
The selection of the top 32 in the previous period would take a long time.
"This robe on Chi-Chi is so nice, it was custom made, right?" Krillin changed into Turtle School's martial arts uniform and commented on Chi-Chi's dress.
By now Chi-Chi was already wearing a modified version of the traditional Chinese robe made specifically for the competition. The white Chinese robe was particularly elegant and accentuated her figure.
Chi-Chi said, "This is specially tailored by Auntie Gine for the scientists of Central Star, with good ductility, perfect for wearing during battle."
"Coincidentally, we have these custom-made using alien technology as well." Krillin touched the material of the martial arts clothing on his body and said smugly.
"The right clothing can bring out the power of a martial artist one hundred percent." Yamcha looked agreeable.
The alien wore battle suits when they fight, which was a technique developed from years of cosmic battles and definitely had its superiority, but the aesthetics of battle suits were not suitable for appearing at a martial arts meeting, so several their martial arts suits were redesigned to be more in line with the aesthetics of earthlings.
"Son Goku!" At this time an icy voice came.
Son Goku and the others looked back, but did not see who was shouting at them.
"Enjoy the last peace, this is your last time." The voice warned, and Tien Shinhan looked around and whispered to Son Goku, "It's a spirit transmission."
"That one's over there."
Chi-Chi pointed to the corner of the Martial Arts Tournament Hall, where a green figure looked at them coldly, then snorted coldly, none other than the freshman Biker.
"That guy's eyes are so cold, it seems like I've seen him somewhere, Goku, do you know him?" Tien Shinhan face gloomy, he sensed the other side emitted a terrible sense of oppression, the whole body surprisingly produced a feeling of being bound.
Son Goku did not recognize the identity of Piccolo, but in the Martial Arts Tournament to meet such an opponent still made him excited, "I do not know, but that guy is very powerful. I really want to fight with him sooner."
"Be careful, he is Great Demon King Piccolo."
A dry and thin old man came over.
"Great Demon King Piccolo, the guy who was killed by Goku's punch three years ago?" Krillin said with a surprised face, "Who are you and how do you know the identity of that man?"
The dry, thin old man said with a tuft of beard, "My name is Shen."
"That person is a newborn Piccolo, stronger than Great Demon King Piccolo by several times. Do not take it lightly, Son Goku, I have very much looking forward to your performance."
After saying that, the middle-aged man named Shen rubbed his head and walked away with a figure-eight step.
"Another strange person, but that guy named Shen is very mysterious looking. Is he related to Kami School? I heard that the earliest days of the Kami School were called the Heavenly Sky School." Krillin consulted the history of most schools before worshipping Master Roshi as his master, so he said the right thing.
"I don't know, but it's getting interesting."
Son Goku didn't have the slightest sense of urgency, but instead became more excited by the appearance of strong people.
"I knew it wouldn't make sense to talk to Goku like that." Krillin rolled his eyes, he saw the character of the Saiyans.
Chi-Chi cheeky smile, "Anyway, the soldiers will stop, the water will cover the soil, and the Senior Brother Goku will not let us down."
Hearing that, Tien Shinhan, Yamcha and others all shrugged their shoulders.
At this time the voice of the staff sounded over the radio, the blond host stood in the center of the Martial Arts Tournament Hall, looking around the black press of people, announced the official start of the selection competition:,"Everyone, let's take a long time.
"Everyone, I've kept you waiting, the preliminaries are about to begin, please gather in the middle!"
After the host introduced the rules of the tournament, the lottery began. 1000 people would be divided into 32 sub-rings, and after several rounds of selection, only the top 32 would be left to enter the open-air competition.
When the lottery was drawn, Chiaotzu used his supernatural powers to interfere, so Son Goku and others were not assigned to a ring.
"Number 324." Piccolo grabbed a number, looked at the list of participants on the big white board, but did not encounter Son Goku.
"Count yourselves lucky." Piccolo snorted coldly, an icy sight looked over.
"Number 1012."
Shen also drew his number, and with a heated smile, he said to Piccolo, "Piccolo, Birgil asked me to say hello to you."
Piccolo smiled, his body snapped around, and his intimidating eyes stared at Shen, "Who the hell are you?"
Shen smiled but did not say anything, "You are not like your father."
Piccolo suddenly realized, his face was gloomy, "So it's you, the old codger, you came down to the world to stop me this time?"
Shen shook his head, "I'm not a Kami anymore, and your power is strong enough, I'm not your opponent, I just came here to see you this time."
"Humph, be careful of losing your life here." Piccolo said with a murderous aura, and asked as he turned around, "Birgil has some words for me."
Shen laughed out loud, "He told me to tell you not to forget that you are a Namekian."
"..."
Hearing this, Piccolo was silent for a while and walked directly towards the competition ring.
"Piccolo is indeed not the same as before."
...
The preliminaries began, once on stage, Son Goku met his old rival King Chappa, several years of hard training, King Chappa was also getting stronger.
Unfortunately, Son Goku was even more powerful than King Chappa, and the match did not take long to start before Son Goku used the Afterimage Fist to get a head start and knocked King Chappa out of the ring with one blow.
The referee was frozen and took a long time to react, announcing, "The Son Goku player wins!"
The blond host stood by and watched carefully, taking notes on the seeding of the match. Of course even if it was a qualifier, there would still be very exciting battles, so the HD camera next to it had been faithfully recording the match, and these shots would be edited in on the DVD in the post.
"Worthy of being the winner of the last tournament, the strength of the Son Goku contestant is still shocking, and this year's conference will certainly shock the audience."
The blond host had an eager face, feeling very satisfied to be able to host such a high level of competition.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
In several other rings, the match was also going on.
The blonde host ran from ring to ring, his face full of excitement.
By the time the sky darkened, the pre-selection stage was nearing its end, when the top thirty-two contestants basically appeared. After a while, the list was officially released, with Son Goku, Chi-Chi, Tien Shinhan, and Piccolo all on the list, just waiting for the official match the next day.
