For a moment, Bulma's thoughts were in complete chaos.
She had been thinking about many things.
Just as everyone was still talking and processing the shocking news—
"Vrrrrrr—"
The familiar roar of airplane engines suddenly came from outside.
"They're back!" Son Goku reacted first, his ears twitching.
"Grandpa and the others have returned!"
Everyone rushed out of the house immediately.
A small airplane was slowly landing on the flat sand near the beach.
The cabin door opened.
Broly jumped out first.
After landing, he casually brushed off his clothes, his expression calm and uninterested in everything around him as usual.
Master Roshi jumped down next.
He looked a bit tired, but the pride and satisfaction on his face were impossible to hide.
Chiaotzu floated down carefully while supporting the still-unconscious Tien Shinhan, who was still asleep because of the medicine.
Goku Meets Roshi
"Goku! You brat! You're alive too? That's great!"
Master Roshi spotted Goku immediately and burst into laughter.
He walked over and slapped Goku's shoulder happily.
"Grandpa, I never died," Goku said, scratching his head.
He briefly explained what had happened to him.
Everyone listened with relief and amazement.
They were grateful that Goku had survived and that the crisis had finally ended.
After the conversation ended, everyone suddenly looked toward the same person—
Broly.
Their eyes were filled with curiosity, shock, and even a hint of awe.
But Broly didn't seem to notice any of it.
Or maybe he simply didn't care.
The first thing he did after returning—
Was walk straight to the refrigerator.
"I'm starving… flying for so long…"
He opened the fridge and began rummaging through the food like nothing else mattered.
Suddenly he noticed the strange silence behind him.
Broly turned around.
Everyone was staring at him strangely.
He froze for a second.
Then he misunderstood the situation completely.
He quickly spread his arms and blocked the refrigerator like a protective mother hen.
His tone became serious.
"Why are you all looking at me?"
"I'm warning you first—everything in this fridge is mine!"
"No one is allowed to steal my food!"
"If anyone tries, I'm going to get angry!"
Everyone's mouths twitched.
This is the guy who crushed Demon King Piccolo like a bug…
And he's worried about someone stealing snacks.
Who in the world would dare fight him over food?
Launch Confesses
"Broly, what would you like to eat?"
Launch walked forward gently.
Her blue hair flowed softly as she smiled warmly.
"I… I can cook for you."
Her voice was soft and full of affection.
"Hmm? You switched back again?"
Broly looked at her blue hair, comparing it with her previous blonde personality.
He nodded happily.
"That's good."
"The blonde version of you can't cook."
"Her food gets burned sometimes."
"I prefer the blue-haired you. Your cooking is delicious."
Launch's face instantly turned red.
Her heart started beating faster.
"I… I like you too, Broly…"
She finally whispered her feelings.
But Broly had already focused on something else.
"I want to eat dumplings."
He licked his lips and looked excited.
Chiaotzu Misunderstands
"!!!!!!"
Chiaotzu froze instantly.
His face turned pale with terror.
He stared at Broly while trembling.
He wants to eat dumplings…
My name is Chiaotzu…
Does that mean… he wants to eat me?!
I'm not tasty! I'm all bones!
Tien! Tien! Save me!
Why are you still sleeping?!
"Hey… are dumplings tasty?" Goku asked curiously.
He leaned closer to Broly.
Chiaotzu nearly fainted.
Even Goku wants to know how I taste?!
This is terrifying!
Master Roshi's school is even scarier than the Crane School!
His grandson wants to eat me, and his disciple wants to taste me too!
This place is too dangerous!
I want to go home!
The Knife Appears
"I'll prepare them!"
Launch nodded shyly and went into the kitchen.
Moments later—
She walked out holding a kitchen knife.
"Broly," she asked gently.
"How should I cook the dumplings?"
"Steamed or boiled?"
Chiaotzu's face turned completely white.
Cold sweat poured down his forehead.
"EEEEEK!"
He screamed and instantly used flight.
Like a frightened rabbit, he shot out through the window at top speed.
His tiny figure disappeared into the distant sky.
Everyone stared in silence.
"Why did he suddenly fly away?" Goku scratched his head in confusion.
Bulma facepalmed.
"You two…"
"You were talking about eating dumplings."
"But remember—his name is Chiaotzu!"
Everyone froze.
Then realization hit.
When they remembered Chiaotzu's terrified face just now—
The whole room burst into laughter.
Kame House was suddenly filled with cheerful noise.
After a while, the small white figure slowly floated back through the window.
Chiaotzu returned awkwardly.
His face was red with embarrassment.
He quietly hid behind the still-sleeping Tien Shinhan.
Only half of his head peeked out as he shyly looked at everyone.
