The girls didn't have much to pack—just a few weapons, some clothes, and a bit of food. Once they were ready, they all stood beside Goku.
Goku immediately activated the Dimensional Travel System and paid 10,000 energy points. A colorful Dimensional Gate instantly appeared before them.
"This is the Dimensional Gate? It's so beautiful!" Hayashi marveled.
"Wow! Wow! The Dimensional Gate! I can't wait! We're finally going to Goku-nii's world!" Alice clapped her little hands excitedly.
Goku checked the duration of the Dimensional Gate—it lasted 30 seconds, 20 seconds longer than when he first traveled.
"Who wants to go first? The Dimensional Gate only lasts for 30 seconds. If time runs out, I'll have to spend another 10,000 energy points to reopen it!"
The girls exchanged glances. Finally, Saeko stepped forward.
"I'll go first!" she said, taking a deep breath to calm her excitement before stepping toward the Dimensional Gate. However, she was suddenly stopped by an invisible force at the entrance, preventing her from moving forward. Confused, she turned to Goku.
"Goku, why can't I get through?"
"Hold on a second!"
The moment Saeko approached the Dimensional Gate, a system notification appeared in front of Goku—only visible to him:
[System Notice: Saeko Busujima is attempting to travel to the Dragon Ball world. Since Dragon Ball is the host's main world, an additional 10,000 energy points are required to bring her through. Do you wish to proceed?]
Goku immediately tapped "Yes," and 10,000 energy points were deducted. The invisible barrier in front of Saeko disappeared.
"It's open now!" Goku nodded at Saeko. Without hesitation, she stepped through the Dimensional Gate and disappeared.
"Who's next?" Goku asked, looking at the remaining girls. He wasn't in a hurry—after all, he had plenty of energy points. If needed, he could just reopen the gate.
"Me! Me!"
With Saeko leading the way, Alice became bolder and eagerly rushed in. One by one, the girls stepped through the Dimensional Gate, each deducting the necessary energy points. Finally, Goku entered, and the Dimensional Gate vanished behind them.

"This is Goku's world?"
"Wow! The trees here are so huge!"
"Look over there! Is that... a dinosaur?!"
As soon as Goku stepped out of the Dimensional Gate, he was greeted by the girls' excited voices. They were gathered around the corpse of a dinosaur, looking amazed. It was a dinosaur that Goku had previously killed while collecting energy points.
Saeko looked shocked. "This… really does look like a dinosaur."
"It resembles a T-Rex…" Saya adjusted her glasses thoughtfully.
"Are we in the Cretaceous period or something?" Shizuka tilted her head in confusion.
"What kind of world is this? Even dinosaurs still exist!" Rika exclaimed.
Hayashi, a biology teacher, observed the scene closely. "Look at its neck—there's a large hole. It's definitely dead."
"Who would do something so cruel? Killing a dinosaur that has been extinct for millions of years!" Hayashi was furious.
Hearing this, Goku smirked and slapped her on the butt.
"Hayashi, you've got some nerve… That dinosaur was killed by me!"
Hayashi's face turned bright red. "S-Sorry… I didn't know…"
Yuriko looked at Goku. "Goku, does your world still have dinosaurs?"
"Of course! Not just dinosaurs—there are even monsters far stronger than them. You girls need to be careful. This world is full of dangerous creatures. Some of them can wipe out an entire city, while the strongest ones can destroy entire solar system or even the entire universe!"
The girls were stunned.
"That's ridiculous!" Rika scoffed. "You're messing with us, right? Destroy a solar system? The entire universe? Do you think we're kids?"
Goku shrugged. "Believe what you want. You'll see for yourselves soon enough."
Waving his hand, he changed the topic. "Alright, let's find a place to rest for the night first!"
He pulled out the Dragon Radar and scanned the area. The closest Dragon Ball was about five miles southwest.
"We'll head in that direction!"
Alice looked at the blinking screen in Goku's hand and asked curiously, "Goku-nii, what's that thing? It's flashing!"
"This? It's the Dragon Radar."
"Dragon Radar? What does it do?"
"It helps locate the Dragon Balls!"
"You mean those round stones?"
"Yup."
Goku pulled a Dragon Ball from his pocket. Now that they were back in the Dragon Ball world, it had returned to its original form, no longer petrified.
"So the Dragon Balls don't work in other worlds… Is it because there's no 'kami' in those worlds? Or is there another reason?" Goku pondered before putting it back into his pocket.
Rei, noticing it, asked, "Goku, what's that orb in your hand?"
"Oh, it's one of the Dragon Balls. The same one I showed you earlier when it looked like a stone. Now that we're back in this world, it's returned to normal."
"It would be amazing if we could use the Dragon Balls in our world!" Rika sighed.
Yuriko shook her head. "Let's not dwell on that. We're lucky enough to have escaped that zombie-filled world."
Shizuka looked at the dense jungle ahead and sighed. "Are we really going to walk all the way out of here?"
Goku nodded. "Yeah. I can fly, but I can't carry all eight of you at once."
Saya glared at Goku. "Idiot! Just carry us two at a time!"
Before Goku could respond, a giant flying dragon suddenly appeared, swooping down toward Yuriko!
"Is… is that a wyvern?!" The girls were terrified and opened fire with their guns. However, the bullets had no effect on the dragon's tough hide.
"H-How is this possible?!"
Just as the wyvern was about to grab Yuriko, Goku vanished, appearing in mid-air. With a single kick, he sent the beast flying dozens of meters before it crashed to the ground—dead.
The girls were left in shock.
Goku smirked. "Now do you understand? This world is far more dangerous than the one you came from. Do you still think I should leave you behind and carry you in groups?"
The girls frantically shook their heads. "NO!"
------
"What kind of world is this? Why are there monsters everywhere?"
"I feel like we've ended up in an even more dangerous place."
"Yeah, I get the same feeling…"
"But honestly, I think it's pretty exciting!"
Throughout the journey, Goku briefly introduced the girls to this world. Any monster that dared to block their way was swatted aside effortlessly. And just like that, half a day passed. Of course, some of the girls got too tired to walk, so Goku ended up carrying them—Rei, Saya, Hayashi… Taking turns giving them piggyback rides, Goku felt like he was making quite the profit.
Finally, as the sun began to set, they spotted a small village. The exhausted girls immediately cheered and ran inside.
After a good night's rest, the next morning, they dragged Goku toward the nearest city. They spent the entire day sightseeing, getting familiar with the world's landscape. Later, they managed to get their hands on a plane and flew to Bulma's house—though, to be precise, Goku acquired the plane by force. After all, he didn't have a single cent on him! Naturally, the pilot was none other than Rika.

Bulma's Home – Guest Lounge
Sitting on the couch, the girls looked around as Bulma stared at them, still unable to process what she was seeing. She turned to Goku and asked, "Alright, explain. What's going on? You were only gone for two days, and now you're bringing a whole harem to my house?"
She couldn't help but feel jealous as she glanced at the girls—each one had a figure that could put supermodels to shame.
"Well, it's a long story…" Goku gave a quick rundown of everything that had happened.
The fact that he had traveled to another world only made Bulma mildly surprised. But when she heard that all these girls were now his, her jaw nearly dropped. Even though Kiriko wasn't officially his yet, it was only a matter of time!
"…Is this really the same clueless little kid I used to know? Ugh, men really are all the same once they grow up." Bulma sighed, shaking her head. She glanced at the girls before turning back to Goku. "So, you're saying you want them to stay at my place for now?"
Goku nodded. "Yeah, you know I don't have anywhere else to go right now."
"Well, that's fine and all, but…" Bulma took a sip of red wine and smirked. "How exactly do you plan to thank me for this?"
