A beam of light that seemed to block out the sky, like a laser that could destroy everything, directly blasted Goku away. A full-powered Kamehameha from Ryoha, coupled with his strength surpassing Goku's, was overwhelming. In his giant ape state, Goku didn't have much fighting power left, and when Ryoha saw Goku still flying in the air, he gathered a ki blast and directly aimed it at the ape's tail, destroying it.
This caused Goku to revert to being a child while still in mid-air. However, because Goku's strength had increased significantly compared to before, transforming from the giant ape back to his original form only caused him to faint briefly.
At the moment Ryoha transformed back into a human, he caught the clothes Bulma had thrown and tied them around his waist to avoid any exposure. He leaped up and seemed to step on the air continuously, making a thudding sound as if on solid ground. Grabbing Goku, Ryoha unintentionally placed him outside the arena, leaving everyone speechless.
"Ryoha wins the championship!" Krillin hesitated for a moment but then, with a face full of sweat, announced Ryoha's victory.
"You little rascal, you always make me waste a lot of effort." Ryoha glanced at the deeply sleeping Goku. However, when Goku woke up after a short nap, he was not pleased.
"Huh? How did I fall asleep?" Goku stood up and noticed his clothes had changed again. Why did people keep taking his clothes? Were they really that good? He couldn't help but wonder, revealing a rarely seen thoughtful side, which was quite adorable.
"Ryoha, do you like my clothes?" After a while, Goku asked the same question again.
"You silly kid, I don't know what to say to you!" Ryoha was speechless, and so were the others. Even Krillin, who saw Goku in this state for the first time, was speechless. The contrast between Goku's current appearance and his previous violent ape form was enormous.
"Goku, don't you remember what just happened?" Krillin asked.
"What happened?" Goku was puzzled.
"Never mind, it's nothing." Since Goku didn't know, Krillin didn't want him to know. However, at least Goku understood one thing— it seemed like he lost. Eventually, Goku could only assume that after blocking the Kamehameha, he lost his strength, fainted, and Ryoha placed him outside the arena. Goku's mindset was carefree, never bothered by anything. He instantly overlooked the incident.
"Let's go have a big feast! Let's use the prize money from the tournament for it!" Speaking of this matter excited Goku and even Ryoha. Although Bulma had no expression on her face, there was a hint of joy in her eyes—there was no way around it.
After obtaining Saiyan blood, the appetites of the two became increasingly exaggerated. Both of them loved tasting delicious food, and as a woman, Bulma was very reserved, so she couldn't show it.
The scene that followed shocked everyone. In front of Goku, Ryoha, and Bulma, the bowls and plates piled up to a height of two or three meters, scaring everyone. In the end, the bill came to 500,000 zeni. Ryoha ordered the best dishes, so spending 500,000 zeni on a meal was not surprising. Eighty percent of the bill was because of Ryoha, Goku, and Bulma.
Compared to the wolfing down of food by Goku and Ryoha, Bulma appeared very refined and cultured, even while eating. Despite her background and upbringing, she seemed to be around seventeen or eighteen in appearance, but in reality, she was already a mature woman. Her virginity had been taken by Ryoha in the Naruto world, so she had matured long ago.
However, after returning to the Dragon Ball world, her appearance had reverted to that of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old. But don't underestimate Bulma's appetite and eating speed because of this change. On the contrary, her very elegant behavior while eating did not lag behind Ryoha and Goku in terms of speed, creating a huge contrast that left everyone amazed.
"A meal for five hundred thousand!" Ryoha didn't flinch. For him, money was just a number, no matter which world he was in. Because there was an eternal truth that remained unchanged in any world—the strong were revered.
His casual throwing of five hundred thousand without a hint of remorse was admirable, especially to Master Roshi. At the moment, he was somewhat glad he hadn't won the championship. Otherwise, his prize of five hundred thousand would have immediately vanished, causing more pain than not getting it in the first place.
"Oh, right! I just remembered, Ryoha, how were you able to stand on thin air and generate force in the sky where there was no force to borrow from?" Krillin suddenly asked. As he did, others also recalled and looked at Ryoha curiously. Flying was something even humans wished to do, especially without external assistance.
"It's simple, it's just another way of using Ki!" Ryoha sneered at Master Roshi. Though he had his reasons, Master Roshi's actions had significantly slowed down the growth rate of the Dragon Ball warriors in the early stages. If he had taught Goku to use Ki from the start, perhaps when Raditz came to Earth, Goku's strength might have reached a thousand or even several thousand. How could he have had only a few hundred battle power?
"What is Ki?" Krillin and Goku were relatively okay, but Yamcha, a complete outsider, was utterly puzzled. He became one of Master Roshi's disciples later and was not only the one with the worst aptitude but also the most complicated mentally.
"Kamehameha!" Ryoha uttered these four words, and Goku immediately understood. Truly worthy of a Saiyan, quick to grasp things. If he had grown up on the Saiyan planet, someone would have taught him these things long ago.
However, what Saiyan planet taught was related to battles and destruction. Regarding the use of Ki, they couldn't compare to what the Earthlings had developed. They thought it was useless. In their eyes, nothing could escape the scouter's detection.
Moreover, the powerful Saiyans saw no need to hide their strength or sense Ki. It wasn't until Vegeta learned it later that he realized the significant effect of controlling and sensing Ki.
"So that's how it is?" Goku's intuition felt like a new door had been opened for him. This door should have been opened by the Celestial Gods after defeating King Piccolo, but now it opened early. His strength would undoubtedly improve faster. Just by observing him now, one could tell that during the World Martial Arts Tournament, Ryoha noticed that his strength was only getting stronger than Master Roshi's, contrary to what was in the anime.
