Shiro nodded. "Makes sense. But I'm fine carrying it. I could use the extra workout, anyway. If you want we could test it, though."

Gozu thinks for a bit. "Well if you want the training you can carry it to the village but then I guess we need to capsulize it. They already tried to auction it off it once so we can't just leave it on the outskirts."

Shiro nodded. "True enough, although the streets might be wide enough for me to carry it through them."

Gozu shrugs "Up to you one of us can always carry Tyson instead of carrying the ship that'd be easier....or I could see if I could put in Orbit mode...and have it orbit the planet." Gozu says remember how the ship went into orbit mode when it couldn't land on Jupiter.

Shiro shrugs and tosses the ship over to Gozu. "Go ahead." He stops and checks his radar as Gozu deals with that, trying to home in on the dragonball.

Gozu reaches both hands up and bends his knees as the ship comes down on his outstretched arms. He catches it easily and sets it down on the ground. He walks in and goes to the ship's computer and after punching some keys sets his ship to orbit mode. As the ship lifts off Gozu runs and jumps out and flies down as his ship goes to orbit the planet. He lands next to Shiro and takes out his radar.

Shiro looks over as Gozu takes out his radar. Isn't that a little redundant? He thought to himself, before walking off again. The village wasn't too far away and already he could hear the shouting of a street market.

Gozu doesn't care how redundant it is he likes knowing where he's headed. He too can hear the yelling of the street market as vendors yell out what they have and the customers argue about the price.

The moment Shiro's step takes him past the edge of the first house, a peddler is in his face, holding up an amulet and babbling way too fast about how he should buy it. Shiro started to shake his head and reject the offer, when he felt something reach into his pocket. He grabbed the wrist, twisting it enough to sprain it and felt a bit of pleasure at seeing the man hiss in pain before wandering off. Watch out for theives. Shiro told Gozu mentally, since it was hard enough hearing himself think with all the shouting around.

For real... Gozu tells Shiro back having already fought off 3 just from the time he's entered the small village. He waves no to a guy trying to sell him...something..Gozu doesn't know what. "No thank you Gozu says walking on forcing his way through the crowd making a path for Shiro to follow from behind him.

Shiro shakes his head, following after Gozu. At least it'll be hard losing him in the crowd. Shiro thought, noticing even as he swatted away another theif that Gozu was a good head taller than any of the people around him.

Gozu keeps pushing his way through the crowd telling the vendors no thank you to whatever they shove in his face...even though some of it does look cool and constantly reaching to twist someone's wrist or grab them to get back what they took from him.

Shiro takes a moment to look down at his radar again, only to realize that it wasn't there. The heck!? When'd it get stolen!? He thought, turning around to see where it had gone. Seeing someone running through the crowd and down a side road, Shiro ran after, not thinking to tell Gozu what happened.

Gozu is too busy with a gang of bandits to notice that Shiro ran off. A group of 3 of them with long curved swords circled around him and demanded his money. Gozu smiles and refuses. They say it's his money or his life. Gozu refuses again and the all three rush in on him swinging there swords and then suddenly all three are knocked out in a flash. That was too easy. Gozu thinks as he looks behind him to see that Shiro is gone.

Shiro followed the thief down several roads, fending off more thieves as he did. Can't let that guy get away! He thought to himself as he turned down another road.

Gozu looks around for Shiro fighting off a couple of pickpockets as he does so. "SHIRO!" Gozu yells of the crowd but he's too far gone. Gozu frowns and lifts himself up off the ground and stars flying over the city towards Shiro's ki signature.

Shiro, eventually, gets tired of the chase, and Halts the thief, who promptly topples over. However, as Shiro approaches, he sees another person picking up his radar. "Hey! GIVE THAT BACK!" Shiro shouts, startling the new thief, who runs off.

Gozu flies over the village and sees finds Shiro as he halts the first thief and sees the second thief take off with the radar. Gozu swoops down and with a gust of wind following him Gozu lands in front of the thief who crashes into him, falls down, gets up, and starts running the other way back towards Shiro.

Unfortunately, Shiro notices that the second thief dropped the radar upon running into Gozu and yet ANOTHER thief grabbed it and ran off, chuckling. I guess there really isn't any honor among thieves. Shiro thinks as he runs past his friend after the new thief.

Gozu unfortunately did not see that the second thief dropped the radar and that the a third one did. Jeesh...they don't even know what it does. Gozu thinks as he hovers up again and flies over the streets the back alleys being to narrow for Gozu's liking.

Shiro, getting frustrated with running past people, leaps onto one of the walls along the alley and bounces from one side to another as he catches up with the new thief. Hoping his antics will scare other trouble makers away, he leaps off the wall a final time, landing on the thief's head, causing him to drop the radar. This time he's the first to grab it, and blinks as he realizes that the object it scans is only a few feet away.

Gozu landed behind the would be thief as he tries to crawl away. Gozu picks up the thief to see that it's only a teen 15 maybe 16 years old. Gozu smirks and says coldly to Shiro. "How bout we teach this little punk a lesson? I did so enjoy the last we...had fun with." Gozu says trying to scare the boy from every stealing again.

Shiro can't help it. He bursts out laughing as Gozu tries, and amazingly enough, succeeds, to sound cruel. Still chuckling, Shiro nods, quickly thinking of a way to salvage the situation. He said, in a slightly raspy voice, "OHHHH that was so much fun. I so enjoyed watching the last one's eyes POP!" He continued to chuckle and mutter about 'eyes' and 'popping', possibly even disturbing Gozu.

The laughing actually serves to scare the kid more then Gozu's threat. Gozu sees the thief's eyes widen in horror as he ears Shiro go on and on like a maniac about eyes and popping. Gozu does his best to not show how creeped out he is by Shiro's description. Then with a shakey voice the thief speaks up. "L-Look...I-I'm sorry...please I don't make my eyes pop." He sounds like he's about to cry. "Oh...I'm not sure Shiro. What should we do here?"

Shiro, still in character, leans in close to the thief's face, looking him dead in the eyes. "No, no no no. These won't pop good at all." Pouting, and realizing he was having way too much fun with this, Shiro turned, gesturing over his shoulder at Gozu. "Let the thing go, it's not worth the time."

Gozu fakes a look of disappointment. "We could always cut off his hands as a trophy" He says casually to Shiro. The thief's eyes widen more. "I-I...promise I'll never steal again just let me go." "Fine." Gozu says coldly and lets him down shoving him as he runs off. When the boy is out of earshot Gozu bursts out laughing.

Shiro takes Gozu's laughter as the sign to drop character. He chuckles again, but quickly stops and rubs his throat, sore from the raspy voice he had used. "Wow, I'm out of practice." He muttered to himself.

"Ok...so where's this dragonball? We can't get out of here fast enough." Gozu says having pocketed his radar during the chase with the thieves. Gozu swats away several reaching hands and waves off several vendors as he tries to talk.

Apparently Shiro's earlier stunts and creepy acting had done the trick; no one was bothering him. He checked his own radar, turned and looked at one of the booths nearby, little more than a leanto that looked like it was about to collapse. "According to this, there." He said, pointing.

Gozu nods his head and walks over to the booth casually and starts to look at what the booth has to offer. He sees some trinkets but not the dragonball. Then the vendor comes up to him. "I see you have a good eye and only the best will do for you. You're not interested in these dime of trinkets you want something..unique" As he says unique he pulls out a ball with 2 black stars on it.
