While watching Android 18 from afar, Son Gohan suddenly had a strange thought.
"If Dad used Instant Transmission for transportation work or construction projects," he thought, "he could have become a billionaire by now."
Instead, Son Goku preferred farming vegetables and hunting animals.
Gohan couldn't help but laugh.
"That really does sound like him."
Meanwhile, far away, Android 18 Lazuli continued her new life.
After leaving the house near Mount Paozu, she had taken only a few belongings and headed toward South City.
Technically, with her power, she could have robbed wealthy people and lived comfortably for the rest of her life.
Nobody normal would have been able to stop her but after regaining her true self and freedom, she never wanted to become that person again.
So instead of taking the easy path, she chose honest work and South City was currently undergoing massive reconstruction after years of destruction.
Buildings needed rebuilding and Roads needed repair and for that Supplies needed transportation.
And for someone with her strength, there was no shortage of work.
The problem was the pay as Most labor jobs paid only two or three thousand zeni per day.
Enough to survive but nowhere near enough for her goal.
Android 18 had a plan.
She wanted to save one hundred million zeni and Once she had that money, she intended to meet Gohan and negotiate with him.
More than anything else, she wanted to use the Dragon Balls to bring her brother, Lapis, back to life.
The brother who had always stood beside her who had ultimately sacrificed himself to save her.
She didn't know whether Gohan would agree but she had to try and In her eyes, money mattered.
Money solved problems and if there was even a small chance of getting her brother back, she would work for it.
Originally, she calculated it would take nearly three years to earn that amount and Fortunately, her incredible strength allowed her to take on difficult construction work that nobody else could do.
Combined with bonuses and special contracts, she was now earning nearly fifty thousand zeni per day.
Not bad but Still not enough but she was getting there.
Unbeknownst to her, Gohan had been quietly observing Beside him Launch with her blue hair gently moving in the wind.
Gohan watched Android 18 carry enormous construction materials as if they weighed nothing.
Then he smiled.
"She seems to be doing fine."
Launch looked toward him.
"So we're not going to talk to her?"
Gohan shook his head.
"No."
"Let's leave her alone She deserves some peace."
The two quietly flew away.
Down below, Android 18 suddenly paused and looked up as For a brief second, she felt as though something had passed through the sky.
Her eyes narrowed but after searching carefully, she saw nothing.
"…Must've been the wind."[TheWind :- "No, it was not" ]
Then she lowered her head and returned to work, While flying, Gohan used telepathy to contact Tien Shinhan.
"Tien, I found Launch."
The silence that followed lasted only a moment as Then Gohan felt Tien's emotions through the connection which was Relief,Shock,Happiness.
More happiness than Gohan had ever sensed from him.
"Meet us at Mount Paozu," Gohan said as Tien agreed immediately.
After bringing Launch to Mount Paozu and introducing her chichi and videl, Gohan later took Videl back to Satan City.
The city had recently been renamed in honor of Mr. Satan for helping refugees during the crisis.
Before leaving, Gohan reassured Videl.
"Don't worry about your mother,If the heart medicine is successfully developed, I'll personally bring it to her."
Videl smiled gratefully.
After saying goodbye to her and Mr. Satan, Gohan finally flew back home.
By the time he returned to Mount Paozu, Tien and Chiaotzu had already arrived and Nearby, Tien was awkwardly trying to start a conversation with Launch.
Launch seemed equally nervous.
Meanwhile, Chiaotzu stood quietly to the side with a happy smile on his face and Seeing them together, Gohan decided not to interrupt.
Instead, he walked toward the river.
A short while later, he returned carrying a giant fish over one shoulder.
"Chiaotzu," Gohan called out, "grab the tail."
"Okay!"
Chiaotzu quickly floated over and grabbed the fish's tail as Together, they carried the enormous catch back toward the house.
The moment Chi-Chi saw them, her eyes lit up.
"Gohan! Bring that over here! I'll prepare dinner!"
"Got it, Mom," Gohan replied with a smile.
He handed over the fish and immediately started helping her prepare the meal.
For the first time in a very long while, the house felt lively again.
An hour later, dinner was finished, and everyone gathered together in the living room.
Gohan looked around at everyone and smiled.
"Launch, why don't you stay here at Mount Paozu?" he suggested. "You and Tien could build a house nearby. Right now, it's mostly just Mom and me living here. It'd be nice to have more friends around."
Launch's eyes lit up immediately. She looked hopefully toward Tien.
Tien wasn't very good when it came to relationships. In some ways, he could be as dense as Goku.
Still, after meeting Launch's hopeful gaze, he slowly nodded.
"I... wouldn't mind that."
Launch immediately smiled.
"Really?"
Tien nodded again as The conversation continued as the sun slowly disappeared beyond the mountains.
Soon, night covered Mount Paozu.
Everyone talked about construction plans, rebuilding, and what they would do next but Gohan quietly listened while looking around the room.
His mother was smiling as Tien and Launch were talking and Chiaotzu looked happier than he had in years.
For the first time in a very long time, Mount Paozu no longer felt empty but It felt alive.
As expected, once Tien made a decision, he acted immediately.
The moment Tien and Launch agreed to settle down nearby, he decided that the next day they would begin buying materials and hiring workers.
That night, Chi-Chi insisted everyone stay over.
Fortunately, there were plenty of empty rooms in the house. Most of them had already been cleaned and maintained by Android 18 during her stay there.
Surprisingly, Chi-Chi and Launch got along extremely well Sometimes Gohan thought women became friends in the strangest ways.
At night, Chi-Chi and Launch shared a room and Tien and Chiaotzu shared another.
Gohan returned to his own room while Looking up at the peaceful night sky through the window, he smiled and slowly fell asleep.
The next morning,
Gohan learned from Chi-Chi that Tien and Launch had already left to hire workers and purchase building materials.
Meanwhile, Gohan focused on gathering the Dragon Balls and By late afternoon, he had collected all seven.
Holding the final Dragon Ball in his hands, he thought about where everyone should gather to summon Shenron.
In the end, he chose Mount Paozu.
Most of his friends were already there anyway.
"The majority wins, I guess," Gohan joked to himself and On his way back, however, he made a small detour.
For some reason, he couldn't stop thinking about Android 18 as He flew toward South City.
From above, he watched Lazuli carrying massive construction materials as workers stared in amazement.
She was still working hard and Still earning money honestly.
Gohan smiled.
"She's stubborn."
Then another thought crossed his mind.
"I wonder what she'd do if I suddenly took away her reason to keep working."
The thought made him chuckle.
After a few moments, he left her alone and headed back home and While flying, he contacted everyone through telepathy.
Krillin,Yamcha,Piccolo,Master Roshi,Bulma and Tien, who was already nearby.
He informed them all about gathering at Mount Paozu to summon Shenron.
Bulma immediately complained.
"Why Mount Paozu? That's so far away!"
"Because Launch is here," Gohan replied and There was complete silence Then
"WHAT?!"
"I'm coming right now!"
Gohan laughed as Some things never changed and Then he remembered Vegeta because By now, Vegeta should have finished his training.
Gohan asked Bulma where he was.
"He's home taking a shower," she replied and Then she added confidently:
"Don't worry. I'll drag him there myself."
When Gohan returned to Mount Paozu, he found Chi-Chi flying around nearby Since all the housework was finished, she had finally given herself time to relax.
She looked happier than she had in years and Sensing Gohan's ki, she flew down beside him.
"You're back already?" she asked. "Did you collect all seven Dragon Balls?"
Gohan nodded.
"Yep. And I already contacted everyone. They should be arriving soon."
"Good,By the way, where are Tien and the others?"
Chi-Chi pointed toward a nearby clearing.
"They brought back a lot of workers. They're laying the foundation right now."
Gohan nodded.
"Got it."
After a quick jump across the river, he headed toward their location as Several Capsule tents had already been set up.
Workers were busy preparing the construction site and The foundation of a new house was already visible.
Gohan couldn't help wondering where Tien had gotten the money for all of this then he immediately dismissed the thought.
It would be rude to ask.
Tien and Chiaotzu had traveled the world for years. They probably had their own savings.
Seeing Gohan arrive, Tien smiled.
"Gohan. You're back."
"Yep."
Gohan looked around the site.
"At this rate, you'll have the house finished within half a month."
Tien nodded.
"A real house is better than living in a Capsule House forever and If we're going to settle down, we should do it properly."
"That's why I hired extra workers."
Gohan gave him a thumbs-up.
"Sounds good to me."
The two chatted for a while before several familiar ki signatures began approaching Mount Paozu.
Wich mean Everyone had arrived as Bulma was the first to rush forward and The moment she saw Launch, she practically tackled her in a hug.
"Launch!"
Launch laughed and hugged her back as The two women had been close friends for years and After everything they had been through together, their reunion was emotional.
Nearby, Krillin and Yamcha exchanged grins and gave Tien a thumbs-up but Tien immediately looked embarrassed and wished he could disappear.
Then Master Roshi arrived and Unfortunately, he was still Master Roshi as The old martial arts master attempted one of his usual "sneaky greetings."
SLAP!
Bulma sent him flying.
BOOM!
Roshi crashed into the ground.
His sunglasses flew off dramatically as Gohan nearly choked trying not to laugh.
Honestly, Master Roshi might have been the strongest pervert in history as Nothing could stop him.
Absolutely nothing Even after being launched into a mountain Far away, Vegeta stood beneath a tree with his arms crossed..
But everyone could tell he looked one minor inconvenience away from exploding.
A few moments later, Roshi recovered and Unfortunately, he learned absolutely nothing.
This time he tried bothering Chi-Chi and it was a Big mistake as Chi-Chi turned slowly.
Crack.
Her fist tightened.
Then SLAP!
A loud smack echoed across the mountain and A bright red handprint instantly appeared on Roshi's face.
The old master flew backward again as Krillin burst out laughing with Yamcha nearly fell over.
Gohan laughed so hard tears formed in his eyes.
Even Vegeta looked slightly satisfied and For once, everyone agreed that Master Roshi had completely deserved it.
After a while, everyone was talking at once.
Bulma, Chi-Chi, and Launch were carrying on several conversations at the same time. Krillin, Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, Puar, and Master Roshi were also chatting nearby.
The entire area had become surprisingly noisy as Gohan glanced to the side.
Even Vegeta looked exhausted.
A vein twitched on the Saiyan Prince's forehead as sweat slowly rolled down his brow. Being surrounded by nonstop chatter seemed far more painful to him than fighting Androids.
