CHAPTER #4: The Adventure Begins! Straw-Hats Debut!

Opening Theme: 11th opening of Fairy Tail: Hajimari No Sora

[Some scenes that you can imagine in it; Superman & Wonder Woman looking at the Earth from the watchtower, they see a golden light circling the world which moves towards them and stops revealing Gotenks who gives a peace sign, Goku pats his stomach in satisfaction as a mountain of plates is behind him in a restaurant as other people watch in shock, Gohan deflecting Yusuke's spirit gun, Wolverine lets out his claws/ Batman takes out a batarang/ Vegeta charges up a Ki-ball, Saiyaman giving his poses as Ichigo and Rukia sweat-drop etc. etc.]

-So! Let the show begin-

They all heard a loud "OWWWW‼‼!" Everybody was staring in shock. Videl's eyes nearly popped out. Even Batman was perplexed. Erasa was laughing uncomfortably. Flash however was grinning. 'I like this kid.'

The teacher however looked horrified, he stammered first then shouted," WH-what the HELL? YOU IDIOT! HOW DARE YOU DO SUCH…..? ". He didn't really complete his sentence as he noticed Gohan wasn't actually even listening. Gohan turned around with a clueless face," Huh? What did you say sir?" he spoke up in a clueless manner indicating he wasn't even paying attention. The student sweat-dropped while Flash snickered but J'onn however seemed to be concentrating on something else. The Martian noticed that the kid called Gohan had given him a brief look before turning back to face the window.

"Nice job bub. I was gonna do it if you hadn't already." came a voice from the back as everyone turned to see a group of people in strange outfits.

There was a bald man in a wheelchair, a man whose mask somewhat resembled Batman's, a redhead woman, a white-haired woman and a man with strange type of glasses. "No! We weren't really going to anything like that. Only Logan here thinks of things like that." the man in the wheelchair laughed mildly while pointing at the man in the yellowish-gold suit.

"And I'd like to introduce ourselves as The X-men, as we call ourselves. I'm Charles Xavier, a telepath. We also were here for business but I didn't know there were other visitors too." "So Bulma kept you waiting too? What's wrong with her?" Gohan grumbled with annoyance but his tone turned into a concerned one as he thought.

Before the conversation could accelerate any further, a head popped out of the window that was shattered by Gohan. "Hey! Who the hell did that?" shouted a boy about nine years old with purple hair, recognized by many as the son of Bulma Briefs, who was rubbing a bump on his head [from the stone obviously] . The teacher was already bowing his head asking for forgiveness for the trouble caused by his reckless student. What stopped his continuous blabber was Trunks's voice as he spoke to Gohan," Hey! Gohan! Just because I destroyed your home doesn't mean you do the same with my home." Said the boy. "I'm not here to destroy your house Trunks." Said Gohan. "I actually wanted to ask where the hell Bulma is. She's gotten so many people to wait here. Go call her already."

"Oh! Okay! But you're gonna have to play with me later." Gohan sighed as he somewhat calmed down," Sure thing little man. "

-Scene Change-

The day was certainly weird for the students of Orange Star High, apparently the country bumpkin knew the most influential people in the world. 'That explains it.' Thought Batman and Videl simultaneously. "Hah! So that's why the kid had the courage to do such a thing." Flash spoke out loud. Then the gates opened. And came out a middle-aged woman in a red outfit [I don't know the name of her outfit :p]. She had a teal blue hair that was quite short in length & in a bowl-cut, her expression almost apologetic.

"Oh my! I'm really sorry for making you all wait. I've been so busy that I forgot to manage and remember my schedule." She bowed to express apology. "We understand madam. It wasn't much of a bother." assured Superman. Bulma rose with a cheerful smile that immediately turned to a stern expression as she looked at Gohan," But still that doesn't give you any right to shoot a pebble through the window."

Gohan bowed in apology," Sorry! I was a bit frustrated today." "Never mind! Now let's all come inside." Said Bulma as she invited them inside," We also have some guests." She spoke excitedly.

Then as they entered they saw two men in suits, a billionaire who was also a phi anthropologist, who made the X-men sigh, "Oh god! Not him." & then beside him was another guy that made some of the X-men gulp, "Oh god! N-not h-him!" Yes, the two men were Tony Stark and Bruce Banner. "Hey Professor! Long time no sees!" said the man. "Hello Mr. Stark and Dr. Bruce. It actually is a surprise to see you both here." "Oh we're here for some technological discussion with the Briefs. You'll be surprised to see how much this world is technologically advanced than ours. And you guys must be the justice league, man I've heard a lot about you guys. " "Yes, and we've heard a lot about you too, Ironman." Tony snickered a he said in a playful manner," What can I say? My reputation precedes me."

"So!" Bulma's voice was heard," Along with the students of Orange Star High, The Justice League and X-men too will be given a tour of Capsule Corp. I'm sure you'll all enjoy it."

"Before we start let me introduce myself to you officially" she smiled," I'm Bulma Brief. President of the Capsule Corporation, which is the largest organization in the world, well our world I mean. We manufacture the Hoi-poi capsules that played a large role in upgrading our world's technology centuries ahead. Other than that we also manufacture jets, hover-boards, mecha-cycles and other means of transportation."

Then a geek raised his hand and asked," Is it true you have manufacture spaceships?"

Bulma smiled," Nice question! Yes, we manufacture spaceships but only my father works on it mostly and sometimes Gohan does. The last model we used took us to a planet called Namek in just a month and let me tell you Namek is about 3000 light years away." The students listened in amazement. The League and X-men were impressed. Videl however was thinking something else," Gohan works here? In spaceships?". 'Oh shit!' thought Gohan. Bulma softly explained," Gohan is a lot more intelligent than most people of his age you see." Videl spoke again," But still a spaceship is way too advanced." She glared at Gohan "Why do you even come to high school?"

"Well I was homeschooled till now so I need an official certificate to get into a college." Gohan explained. 'Tony went to him and patted him on his back," You know you remind me of another teen genius back home. Come to visit the Stark Tower someday, young and talented people like you are always welcome." [A hint!]

"So have you made contact with aliens?" A boy named Paper asked.

"Yes!" Bulma replied," Yes! There were Namekians, green people with antennae that'd reproduce with eggs and drink only water."

"Did they attack you?"

"No! The Namekians are a peaceful race. They do have warriors but they'll never attack unless you attack first. Gohan even made friends there." All attention turned to him again," YOU HAVE BEEN TO OUTER SPACE? ‼‼" the whole class exclaimed.

"Yeah but I was only five or six years old back then."

Erasa then squealed in excitement," Wow Gohan! You're so much more awesome than you let on." She said as she started rubbing her body into Gohan's making him flush red.

Bulma noticed this and asked smugly," Hey Gohan! Is she your girlfriend?"

Sharpner immediately cried out, "No! Not at all." Immediately rushing to Erasa's side.

"Look who's jealous!" Flash whispered as he put an arm around Shayera, earning an elbow to the stomach. "Ouch!"

'Chichi's going to be really busy picking a bride today' snickered Bulma as she thought.

"How come you never told us Gohan!", Videl said as she glared at him.

Melting under her gaze, Gohan nervously replied," Uhh… well I didn't want to really be the center of attention!"

"Gohan's a really shy guy you know." came the voice of another Bubbly blonde, Bulma's mother. "Hello everybody! I'm Bulma's mother, Panchy. I see we have some very handsome guests here." She said flirtatiously as she winked at Superman, who was at a loss of word to do anything in such a situation.

She then went towards Gohan and hugged him," Oh Gohan! You've become a fine young man, strong and handsome just like your father." She paused at the mention looking a bit sad; people didn't to fail to notice that. "No matter how much I try, or anyone else may try, there can be nobody else like my dad." He smiled softly; his words had pride in them. "The only one that can surpass my father is always my father himself."

The way he spoke of his father made it clear how much faith and respect he had for his father. "He is proud of you Gohan." said Bulma as she went up to him and kissed his forehead. Gohan had a drop of tear in his eye; he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked around to see the same jock from the morning. "I'm sorry Gohan. Forget the words I said, your father taught you very well." He smiled sincerely at Gohan, Gohan returned the smile. 'You still manage to bring out the good in people dad.' Gohan thought.

'So Saiyaman lost his father, maybe that's why he became a superhero.' thought Batman.

"You know Gohan's dad?" Videl asked to Bulma.

"Yes! We met when we were very young. It's a very interesting story, you want to hear?" The students nodded. Videl was somewhat the most excited at the point as Bulma noticed.

Bulma began narrating ~

Bulma: I was out in the woods of East 439 district which is about 400 miles from here. I was a sixteen year old back then; I was searching for magical orbs called the Dragon Balls.

A random student: What are the dragon balls Mrs. Bulma?

Bulma: *She notices excitement building up on her guests.* Well legend has it that there are seven magical orbs called Dragon Balls, they are scattered around the world. And when somebody gathers all seven of them and enchants a phrase, * Imagine Dragon Ball opening music: Makafushigi Adventure* a large dragon comes out of the balls. He shall grant you any wish that you desire.

*Gohan smirks at the 'any wish' part*

Another random student: What did you want to wish for Bulma?

Bulma: *Giggles* Well I wanted to wish for a perfect boyfriend.

-Everybody laughed at this. Tony Stark smirked and whispered to Bruce,' I think she meant me.' Gohan heard this and felt glad Vegeta wasn't around.-

Flash: *Really excited* what happened after that?

Bulma: Well, I was riding on one of our own small cars that and well after all I was a teenage girl, I saw a large fish walking on the road in front of me and frightened I accidentally hit it. But it turned out that the fish was actually Goku's meal which he had caught.

Videl perked up at the name: Goku as in Son Goku? The winner of the 23rd world martial arts tournament?

Bulma noticed the excitement in her voice: Yes the one and only.

Superman chimed in: I heard it is the greatest competition in your world.

Bulma: Yes of course! It is the greatest. The winners have to be extremely strong. When it comes to power levels, only those with greater than a hundred could even hope to get into the finals.

Wolverine: Hundred? Can ordinary humans be that strong?

Bulma: Of course! That's why the finals are legendary.

Videl: Gohan! You're the son of a legend and you never told us?

Gohan shrugged," Actually I didn't know my dad was that famous."

Many students sweat-dropped then Sharpner lashed out at Gohan as he caught Gohan's collar, "Brains! They're gonna make a statue of your dad in the venue of the WMAT!" And you don't know he's famous? We're sure gonna talk a lot from now on".

Bulma resumed

: Ah! Son-kun was a great man! Well resuming the story, Son-kun thought of my vehicle as a monster since he had never seen a car or any other vehicle before, living out in the woods. I doubt you'll believe but even at a young age of I think 12, he lifted the car over his head and toppled it.

-The students gasped.-

Superman smiled,' it reminds me of myself.'

Bulma: I was so scared that I pulled out a gun and shot at him.

Batman: *Somewhat surprised at the possibility of beings like Kryptonians on another universe.* you shot a twelve year-old?

Bulma: Well it's not every day you meet a boy who can lift cars plus the bullet didn't even scratch Son-kun.

The students collectively gasped," What?"

Bulma: Yeah! The bullet bounced off of him and then…

Bulma continued her story.

- MEANWHILE IN ROSHI'S ISLAND-

Master Roshi was enjoying the sun outside as Marron was playing with her father.

Krillin then stopped and looked at Master Roshi, who had already gotten up from his feet and was ready for whatever was coming next.

"Hey! Master Roshi! You sense this new power coming?"

"Yeah! But it doesn't seem much of a threat." He replied.

"I hope so."

They saw a battered ship that looked like it had been vigorously attacked. It seemed like a pirate ship as it had a large skull on its sail and flag but it also had a straw-hat that was worn by the skull.

The ship stopped right on the shore as its bow fell off, broken and so did a number of its other parts. Then a young man in red clothes with a straw-hat jumped out. He had a yellow sash wrapped around his waist, dressed in blue shorts.

"Hey! This island is really small." Said a long nosed man as he too dropped down from the ship. "I told you to avoid that big rock." A man with three swords was arguing with a man in black suit who was also smoking a cigarette that wasn't really dropping even when he was talking or rather shouting," I'm the cook, bastard, you could have gone and turned the helm."

"Oy! Ossan! Do you have meat that I can eat?"

Usopp sweat-dropped. "Luffy! You don't just ask for meat with people. Hello sir! I'm Usopp! And we're the straw-hat pirates. You can see our ship's wrecked and we need supplies. Will you help us?"

Master Roshi simply replied," No!"

Krillin sweat-dropped," Umm... well you can see we're almost stranded here, we won't be able to continue our journey if we don't get supplies."

Usopp pleaded but Roshi was indifferent. "Now why should I even help you strangers?" "Master Roshi! Let's simply help them already."

"No Krillin! Let me be assured we're helping the right people." Roshi said it in an utterly serious tone, which made Krillin sweat-drop.' He's definitely up to something.'

"Then what do you ask of us Ossan!" Luffy said with a serious tone of his own.

"I'll help you if and only if…." Everybody was waiting for the supposedly important reason that could be their ticket to repairing their ship," if and only if…. That orange-haired chick shows me her boobs."

Krillin and Usopp fell over anime style while Zoro was muttering "Oh! Not another Sanji!" Nami was ready to come strangle the old man only held back by Robin.

Sanji retorted," Don't compare me with the old man. My love is true *Hearts in his eyes* and I'm way lot energetic and stronger…"

Roshi interrupted," Stronger? I don't think you know who you're talking with young man."

Krillin commented," I don't like where this is going."

"What's this entire ruckus?" shouted 18 as she came out to see what happened.

Sanji, being not like the master as he had said, immediately rushed over to grasp her hand in a romantic way, a knee touching the ground and flower kept between his lips.

"Yep! Not at all like the old man." Krillin commented sarcastically.

Sanji talked with hearts in his eyes. "I've never seen such a marvelous beauty like you…" he never got to finish his sentence as 18 finger-flicked him in the forehead resulting in him flying towards the ship, damaging it even more. Usopp nearly fainted as more part of the ship broke and fell.

"Wow! She's strong! SUGEEEE‼!" said Luffy with starry eyes in usual manner.

Then Luffy noticed a fluffy yellow cloud floating.

"Hey! What's this?"

Krillin replied," That's the flying nimbus! It's a means of transportation."

Luffy was already delighted, "Whoa!" he said as he stepped onto the cloud squealing with excitement. "Hey! Look Zoro! I'm riding a cloud! Yoo-hoo! " shouted Luffy but then Nimbus started to fly really far off somewhere.

"Oi! Luffy! Get back!", shouted Usopp.

"I can't! Yoo-hoo!", shouted Luffy back as he disappeared into the horizon.

"Quite a captain I see!" said Roshi as he rubbed his cheeks in Nami's butt which earned him a kick under the chin.

Master Roshi was sent flying away into the horizon in the same direction as Luffy had gone, he disappeared with a *ting*.

In a nanosecond, Zoro had his swords around Krillin," Where has the cloud taken our captain?"

Krillin sighed," Relax! No need to act rash!", he used his fingers to bend the sword aimed at his neck, much to everybody's surprise. Apparently the little man wasn't really so little. He sensed the Nimbus was heading towards Gohan who was supposed to be at Capsule Corp. 'Might as well get their ship fixed.'.

"So!" he continued as he handed over Marron to 18. "Take care of her. I'll get the ship fixed for these guys." He went back to Zoro and twisted the sword to its original shape. " There! Its better now."

'These people! They're really strong. I bet even the old man would give Luffy some trouble.'

"Hey! Now listen! I'll take you guys and your ship to a friend who'll help fix it. So get onto your ship. I'll take you there."

"But how? I don't think the ship can sail at all.".

"Just get on board and watch, I'll come back after I'm dressed."

The straw-hat crew minus Luffy got on deck." What do you think he's gonna do?"

Wondered Chopper out loud. Then the ship started to shake.

"Hey Zoro! Sanji! Nami! Robin! Chopper! We're flying! The ship's flying! Hahaha!" Usopp squealed. " SUGOII‼!" squealed Chopper. "B-but how?" Nami said confused.

" Papa's lifting it." Shouted Marron. The straw-hat crew gaped, someone was lifting the Thousand Sunny which was a pretty damn huge ship.

"Okay guys! I'm gonna speed up a little! Hold on!". Then Krillin increased the speed at about 700 mph, "This is gonna be fun!" smirked Zoro while Nami & Chopper held on for dear life.

As they were flying they also caught up with Master Roshi who was still in mid-air, flying because of Nami's kick. Apparently he had fallen asleep in mid-flight.

"Hey look! It's that pervert old man! " yelled Chopper.

"We'll see him soon in our destination." Said Krillin from below.

Bulma had finished her narration of her encounter with Son Goku and had shown them around the Atrium.

They were now in the corridor that separated the living quarters and research labs.

After an hour and a half of nearly exposing the secrets of Gohan, Bulma spoke up again

"Now it's time for lunch! So everyone come out to the lawn."

'I didn't come here for lunch.' Batman grumbled in his thoughts.

"Make yourselves comfortable please."

-The scenario is similar to Battle Of Gods.-

There was food nearly everywhere in all the tables, and in some there were food of enormous amounts.

And serving amount of food still was a woman in traditional Chinese clothes, humming ," Cha-la head cha-la".

Bulma then said," Everyone! Listen! This entire buffet has been prepared by Gohan's mother herself, Son Chichi."

Flash was really surprised," She's his mother? She looks so young.* Chichi blushes* and the amount of food she made , wow. You're an extra-ordinary woman."

Chichi had a red tint in her cheeks as she took the compliment," Oh gosh! Thank you so much!"

Videl then interrupted as she came in front of Chichi dragging Gohan," Mrs. Son! You're Gohan's mother?"

Chichi took a stern expression as she turned around swiftly to smack her ' Frying Pan of Doom' at her little son who was trying to sneak and get some food before others.

Everybody cringed at the loud CLANG. Some even feeling mercy for the little guy.

"Control your hunger Goten! Didn't you already eat 20 pizzas before!".

Goten smiled sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head," But I'm still hungry mom! Can I have more please! Please!" Goten pleaded .

"Of course sweetie! But let the others be seated too."

"Doesn't it hurt that little child?" wondered Jean out loud. "The woman is surely a strong one. Her attitude reminds me of Amazonians." Wonder Woman mumbled.

"I guess the frying pan explains that" Hal chimed in.

Chichi turned," So Gohan! What was your girlfriend asking?"

Supposedly not noticing the 'G-word' Videl continued with her own excitement," You're the one of the few women to have made it past the preliminaries. We heard you & Son Goku fought and after he won he proposed you in front of all the audience. You guys were never really seen again. Rumors said then you both had a child and I see it's pretty much true, seeing Gohan.", said Videl as she was unknowingly clutching Gohan's hand.

A boy took out his scouter and checked out Chichi," Whoa! Three hundred! That's amazing. She's just as strong as Saiyaman."

"That guy who lifted that airliner a few days ago? Wait! This woman can lift an airliner? Imagine how strong her husband must have been.", mumbled Wolverine.

'Yeah! Just imagine!' Batman thought.

One of the students who had seen a bit of Goku's from way earlier tournaments then pointed out," Madam! Goten looks exactly like Son Goku. I've seen some pics from his childhood."

"Ah! Yes! Little Goten looks just like his father when Goku was a child. And when he rides the nimbus it almost feels like he's Goku-sa himself!" Chichi added.

"What's a nimbus?" Videl asked.

"Ooh-ooh! I'll show you!" said Goten as he piped up, he then went to the center of the lawn and shouted," FLYING NIMBUS‼‼"

"Just wait! Nimbus will appear soon!"

Everyone looked towards the sky and soon enough saw a flying yellow cloud but with a young man in late teenage on it.

"Yoo-hoo! This cloud is fun! Hahaha! OOOOOOOOOOh! MEAAAT‼!" he shouted in joy as he immediately gobbled down every food in sight.

And in a matter of a few nanoseconds the young man was lying on the floor as a victim of the frying pan of doom.

"How rude of you! Who the hell are you exactly!"

"Ow! Ow! Ow! Sorry old lady.. "

Before he could say anything more Chichi's red aura flared wildly as she shouted,

" WHO ARE YOU CALLING OLD?"

Gusts of wind flew as her clothes too flared.

"Hell hath no fury as that of a woman scorned." Hal Jordan said with a large sweat-drop of his own.

"Sugoii!" said Luffy as Chichi punched him square in the face and to everyone's surprise his neck stretched way to the other side of the wall and returned with double the force which Chichi blocked with her crossed arms as she was dragged back a few meters.

Luffy was however smiling in spite of all that," Wow! You're so strong ! We should spar sometime." He said as he flexed his arm.

"Who're you and why were you riding the nimbus?" Bulma queried.

"OH! Hello! I'm Luffy! Captain of the straw-hat pirates and I'm gonna be the king of pirates."

Upon hearing he was a pirate, some students backed off while some superheroes had already come forward to be ready for action.

Superman stepped forward," What're your intentions here Luffy?"

Videl was already in her stance too

"Yeah bub! Tell us.", said Wolverine as he unsheathed his claws earning gasps and stares.

Before things could escalate, Bulma spoke up," Relax guys! I'm sure he doesn't have evil intentions."

"But he said himself he's a pirate, Mrs. Bulma." Videl added.

"The Nimbus can only carry pure-hearted people and we saw he came here on nimbus so he's technically a pure hearted person. And with my experience pure hearted people don't have evil intentions, do they?", she laughed softly.

Wolverine retracted his claws and everyone else eased up.

"So Luffy! Why-" Bulma didn't get to finish his sentence as Luffy was back to gobbling things up.

" I WASN'T FINISHED TALKING TO YOU!" Bulma brought out her own large spatula and hit him square in the head.

'How do these women bring weapons out if thin air?' Flash wondered out-loud.

"Ahehehe!" Luffy smiled sheepishly.

"Why did your neck stretch so far?"

"I ate the Gomu Gomu no Fruit, I am a rubber-man." He said as he used his finger to stretch his cheek.

"Wow!" Goten, Trunks & Flash were staring wide-eyed.

Just then a huge shadow was seen over them as a man who was carrying a large ship came into view, kids already checking their scouters, they saw the man was again a three hundred.

"Guess I crashed the wrong party, eh?" said the man as he noticed the looks he was getting.

In a laboratory, a man was seen looking at some blueprints.

"Are you sure this project will be successful?" said the man.

"Of course, the army has manufactured such weapons already even though they were unsuccessful later. They were extremely powerful." Came the reply of another man who was wearing a mask and working on some metal-suit.

And from another room, another man entered as he tore apart his suit on the chests area,

"And combined with this, we'll be unstoppable."

He finished as a green light illuminated the room.

A/N: Okay this is it for today! Hope you enjoyed it up to now and as you see there'll be true action in next chapter.
