Gine figured Bulma's true intentions with the Dragon balls were different from what Kakarot relayed, but didn't know what exactly until she saw it now. These two definitely had chemistry.

Yamcha extended his hand to Gine's and shook it, "It's a pleasure to meet you ma'am."

"Likewise." She said. "You must be Yamcha."

"I am! The fearsome desert bandit and friend to Kakarot!" He declared in a boosting voice, puffing his chest in a heroic pose that made him look oafish.

"But nowhere as much of a REAL friend besides me!" Piped Krillin.

"And you must be Krillin." Gine said, bending down and offering her hand that he shook. His stature was as small as Kakarot's, and he had a mischievous yet kind look to him.

"That's right! Kakarot and I trained really hard together with Master Roshi for the first tournament."

"And trained hard they did." Said Roshi as he came up to them.

Gine bowed respectfully, "It's an honor to meet you, Master Roshi."

Roshi returned the bow. "The pleasure's all mine, Gine." He smiled then shook her hand. "Your son is an amazing student."

"Aside from me of course?" Gohan joked, causing Roshi to notice his former pupil.

"Gohan!" Roshi perked in joy.

"It's good to see you again, Master." Gohan bowed. "I see that the years have been treating you nicely."

Roshi chuckled. "Oh, I'm still hanging in there for someone my age. Of course, the years are always kind to you."

"Oh definitely."

Gine did wonder. This old man was Gohan's master since he was a boy? Gohan looked to be older than him, so how could this guy have been his master? Either he had a very youthful vigor, or he was immortal.

"So, how've you been? It's been years since I've last seen you."

"Been doing very well, I've managed to live quite a peaceful life even with these two dropping out of the sky." Gohan quipped slyly.

Gine felt panic rising. Was he really going to tell them that they were from another planet?

Roshi leaned closer to her and whispered, "No need to worry, Gine. I already know the whole story of you and your son. And it's not one I or anyone here will be broadcasting to anyone else anytime soon."

Gine felt very grateful at that. She was told this man was a pervert, but she could tell that he was also very wise and kind.

"Thank you." She said to him.

"No worries, my dear. Now, let's meet the rest of the gan-"

"Come out of your shell at last, Roshi?" Came another voice.

They all turned to see a trio of men lead by a old man in a green robe standing before them. Gine sensed the calm and easy-going Roshi tense into something serious as soon as he laid eyes on him.

Gine looked him over, her Saiyan and overprotective maternal instincts assessing this new threat. Whoever he was, he was no friend to Roshi. He wore a swan hat and pointed grey mustaches that looked more ridiculous than intimidating. She sensed arrogance dripping from him.

A tall bald man behind him had a third eye in his forehead and looked nothing short of cold-blooded. And the shortest of the trio, a dwarf or child, whose skin was as white as porcelain with red cheeks. But he looked so lifeless and still.

"Crane? I'm amazed that you are still alive." Roshi said to him, his cheery demeanor gone and replaced with contempt.

The man Roshi called Crane chuckled evilly. "The lines on your face are just as deep, old friend."

"That was rude." Bulma remarked.

Kakarot stared Crane down from behind Roshi and Gine, sensing the bad energy coming from him and readying himself for a fight.

"Relax, I'm not here to start trouble, I hear a little whisper that your pupils did quite well last time. I guess the saying is true, "anything can happen.""

"What's it to you, huh?!" Roshi yelled impatiently.

Crane laughed maniacally, "You're out of your league, Roshi, admit it. You were blessed by my absence last time, but we both know that fighting against my team is an exercise in futility. Not even Jackie Chun could handle my boys! Do yourself a favor and go home."

The bald three-eyed man grinned threateningly behind his master, the doll-like boy stood still expressionless. Gine wondered if he actually was a doll.

Crane looked over all of them and continued his abuse, "I sympathize with your crew, I really do. Inadequacy is always such a tough pill to swallow, but it sure beats public humiliation."

Gine knew that this little man could not physically harm her or any of them, but the sheer disrespect he was showing to her son and his friends almost m

ade her Saiyan senses tell her to kick his head clean off his shoulders.
