Ding~ Host, a new mission has arrived.
The Heroic Spirit System's alert echoed in Kaiser's mind.
"Oh?"
"Finally."
Kaiser stretched lazily.
He entered the Libra Temple's Weapon Hall.
Sitting cross-legged, he closed his eyes, entering a meditative state.
His thought-form entered the Hall of Heroes.
"What's the mission this time?"
As usual, Kaiser awaited the Heroic Spirit System's briefing.
He hoped to find a suitable world in the Multiversal Star River to rapidly enhance his power.
The Zodiac array was complete, and these few decades were a golden window for growth.
If he didn't improve, the Holy War would end badly for him.
Having faced the Underworld, the Sea Realm, and suppressed Ares' soul…
Ding~ A wish from Shenron has been received.
"Bulma desires a handsome boyfriend."
"Synchronizing with the Dragon Ball world's wish…"
Ding~ Wish synchronization complete.
"This mission is a role-playing task. The host must act as Bulma's boyfriend."
"All gains in the assigned world belong to the host."
"The mission has no time limit."
The Heroic Spirit System's words left Kaiser bewildered.
"?????"
"Wait!"
"What kind of role-playing mission is this???"
Stunned, Kaiser was hurled into the Multiversal Star River before he could process it.
"What's the joke!"
"Hey!"
It wasn't that he didn't want to take the mission.
The Dragon Ball world was a high-martial realm with gods.
But acting as Bulma's boyfriend? He had no experience in that.
Still, it wasn't a loss. Bulma's research skills were top-tier in the Multiversal Star River.
She could develop space capsules and time machines, not to mention other advanced tech.
Dragon Ball's Ki was also a unique cultivation method.
With these thoughts, Kaiser's thought-form vanished from the Hall of Heroes.
In the Dragon Ball world…
Shenron's red eyes dimmed slowly.
"Your wish has been granted."
Hearing Shenron, sixteen-year-old Bulma, starry-eyed, awaited her prince charming.
A golden glow descended from the sky.
Kaiser was summoned to the Dragon Ball world.
And in a legitimate way.
As the light faded,
Kaiser appeared before Bulma.
"Wow!"
"So handsome!"
Bulma's eyes turned heart-shaped.
To be fair, no Saint in Saint Seiya was unattractive.
Even Taurus Saints were rugged, iron-blooded men.
Not ugly, just less refined compared to other constellations.
Kaiser's looks, even in the Multiversal Star River, were undeniably top-tier.
Snapping back, Kaiser glanced at his hand... no Command Seals.
"As expected, the Dragon Ball world's power and ceiling are high."
"Even with my Eighth Sense, I might not beat a Super Saiyan God."
The lack of Command Seals didn't surprise him.
Dragon Ball's power ceiling was immense.
"Miss Bulma…"
Regaining his composure, Kaiser smiled and greeted her.
As the heiress of Capsule Corp, the world's richest family, Bulma made this mission far easier.
It felt less like a role-playing task and more like a learning opportunity.
"System, use an anchor to lock the Dragon Ball world."
Kaiser decisively used an anchor point.
Checking the system panel's anchor prompt,
He considered retracting the anchor from the One Punch Man world.
Reaping some benefits there would suffice.
"Are you the boyfriend Shenron granted me?"
"Hi, I'm Bulma."
Sixteen-year-old Bulma, radiant with youthful vitality, beamed with innocence.
A true youthful beauty.
"Kaiser, my name."
Kaiser flashed a smile,
Instantly captivating Bulma.
"Wow, can Shenron really create a human from nothing?"
Oolong and young Goku stared at Kaiser, curious.
They knew he was summoned by Shenron.
But they thought he was Shenron's creation,
Not someone from another world.
"So, are you really Shenron's creation?"
"Will you break?"
"How long can you stay in this world?"
Bulma, hearing this, looked at Kaiser nervously, awaiting his response.
"I'm not Shenron's creation."
"I'm a being from another world."
"Shenron and I have a deal."
"I won't break."
"I can stay with you until the end of your life."
Kaiser gazed at Bulma gently.
She was a treasure, worth cherishing.
"Awesome!"
Bulma was thrilled.
She finally had a handsome, gentle boyfriend.
"Hey, Kaiser, you're weird."
"I can see you, but I can't sense you. You feel dangerous."
"Are you a powerhouse in your world?"
Young Goku looked at Kaiser curiously.
Having trained with Master Roshi, he'd begun sensing Ki and learned the Kamehameha.
But he couldn't sense Kaiser.
"Our worlds' cultivation systems differ."
Just one glance.
The God knew he was no match for Kaiser.
The pressure was overwhelming.
On Kaiser, he sensed a divine aura.
"Some high-tier god's prank?"
"His aura outranks King Yama."
"A Kai, perhaps?"
The God's expression wavered, his green face darkening.
"Lord Kami…"
Mr. Popo, watching, grew concerned.
"It's fine, Mr. Popo."
"Just thinking."
The God smiled.
He'd observe for now.
If Kaiser harbored malice toward Earth,
They'd be powerless.
At worst, he'd seek aid in the Other World after death.
Time passed, and Kaiser arrived in West City.
"Oh my, what a handsome young man!"
"Are you Bulma's boyfriend?"
Bulma's mother asked with a grin.
"Yes, ma'am…"
At nineteen, Kaiser called her "ma'am" without hesitation.
Dr. Brief, eyeing Kaiser, smiled too.
He was clearly pleased.
Kaiser's charisma and looks were exceptional.
Learning Kaiser was Shenron's gift to Bulma,
Dr. Brief worried even less.
Shenron's products were top-notch.
The group feasted heartily.
Bulma cast flirtatious glances.
At night, Bulma, blushing, entered Kaiser's room.
"Brother Kaiser, can I sleep with you?"
Her eyes sparkled with anticipation.
"Uh…"
Kaiser felt a headache.
Bulma was beautiful, no doubt.
But she was only sixteen!
Moving too fast wouldn't pass muster.
"Bulma, you're young. Let's wait until you're eighteen, okay?"
Kaiser coaxed her gently.
"Fine…"
Bulma's eyes dimmed with disappointment.
"But you can sleep here."
"Just sleeping…"
Kaiser ruffled her hair.
This genius girl was a keeper.
"Okay!"
Bulma smiled brightly.
The long night passed, dawn breaking swiftly.
"It's been a while since I slept."
Sunlight streamed into the room.
Kaiser opened his eyes slowly.
Since entering the Saint Seiya world,
He'd meditated instead of sleeping.
After mastering Cosmos, he hadn't slept.
This rare rest felt nice.
A weight pressed against him.
Bulma clung to Kaiser, her fair legs draped over him, sleeping soundly.
"Still just a girl."
Kaiser smiled.
Gently moving her, he got out of bed.
"Kaiser, up so early?"
Dr. Brief, toolbox in hand, tinkered in the vast yard.
"Yeah, just looking around."
Kaiser replied with a smile.
Though both were dangerous worlds,
Dragon Ball's ordinary people were far happier than Saint Seiya's.
Even if they died, they'd be revived.
Unaware of crises,
Goku and his friends bore all burdens.
Meanwhile, young Goku was devouring breakfast.
"Kaiser, want to spar?"
Stuffed from breakfast, Goku eyed Kaiser eagerly.
"Sure."
"Let's do it."
Though young Goku was weak, meeting Master Roshi required going through him.
When it came to mastering Ki, Roshi was a martial arts grandmaster.
"Great!"
Goku struck a stance,
His face serious.
"Hah!"
Goku darted forward with blazing speed.
Under his grandfather Gohan's training, his martial skills were impressive.
He threw a punch.
Kaiser vanished, leaving an afterimage.
"You lose…"
When Goku regained his bearings, Kaiser's finger rested on his forehead.
"Wow, you're amazing!"
Goku hadn't expected such a vast gap.
"Goku, I'd like to meet Master Roshi."
"Can you arrange it?"
At this, Goku nodded instinctively. "Of course!"
He saw no issue.
Roshi was a martial arts legend.
Every fighter in the world wanted to meet him.
"Once Bulma's up, we'll head out together."
Kaiser smiled.
By mid-morning, Bulma finally stirred from sleep.
"Kaiser!"
Stepping out, she leaped onto him.
"Get ready. We're going to find Master Roshi."
Kaiser patted her gently.
"That pervy old man?"
"No way!"
Bulma gritted her teeth at the thought of Roshi.
During their Dragon Ball hunt, if not for Oolong's help, that old lech might've seen her entirely! (Adjusted for tone, per original note.)
"Bulma, do you know how to build a gravity device?"
Seeing her reluctance, Kaiser didn't press.
Instead, he thought of Dragon Ball's ultimate training tool.
The gravity device.
Goku used it to transform from ten thousand to one hundred eighty thousand in under a month.
It was Dragon Ball's top training artifact, second only to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
"Gravity device?"
"What kind?"
Bulma looked puzzled.
Kaiser explained his needs in detail.
"Got it. A device to alter gravity, right?"
"I can give it a shot. Doesn't seem too tough."
Bulma hopped off him, ready to experiment.
Kaiser was at a loss for words.
She was, after all, the genius teen who invented Capsule Corp's capsules.
Even in later eras, space capsules remained a dream.
Toss one, and a fully-equipped house appeared.
Who wouldn't be stunned?
"Stay here and wait for me."
Kaiser ruffled Bulma's hair.
"Okay."
Bulma nodded obediently.
"Let's go."
Kaiser turned to Goku.
"How do we get there?"
"Fly?"
Goku asked curiously.
"No need…"
Kaiser's telepathy spread, instantly pinpointing Roshi's island.
Their figures vanished.
"So cool!"
Bulma's eyes sparkled.
Kaiser's instant teleportation blew her away.
Minutes later, she snapped out of it, changed, and began working on the gravity device.
Meanwhile, Kaiser and Goku arrived at Roshi's island.
"Grandpa Roshi!"
Goku shouted.
Roshi, engrossed in a magazine, looked up.
"Goku, huh?"
"Who's this?"
Roshi's eyes narrowed behind his sunglasses.
He couldn't sense Kaiser's Ki!
This guy was no ordinary person.
Even infants had Ki…
