Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

"Oh, old man, it\'s you? I really liked your tea. Come in, Chi-Chi has gone to the market. Gohan is inside." Goku invited him in.

"Thank you, young man." Iroh entered. He saw Gohan doing his homework on the table.

Iroh took a seat beside him. He took out his golden tea kettle gifted to him by Ragnarok.

*Sip*

"What are you studying, child?" He asked.

"Maths, grandpa," Gohan answered.

"Oh, I know it. But It\'s not my cup of tea. Do you like it?" Iroh asked.

"Hehe, I didn\'t like it before either. But with practice, I got better. But now it\'s boring." Gohan said.

"Really? What do you want to do then?" Iroh inquired.

"I want to train... I want to fly outside. Spar with dad... But... Mom won\'t ever let me do that. She only wants me to study and study." Gohan sadly replied.

Iroh caressed his hair, "Kid, your mother is scared. Scared of the future. She probably worries that something might happen to Goku someday or maybe even herself. So she is worried about you and about your future. She wants you to study and become good enough to make money as she probably thinks that money is the best cheat for a better life. But I think she is wrong here. She fails to see that her husband and son are not ordinary people."

"But... I think making money is easy with our strength. I can simply win some sports events and get a lot of money." Gohan said.

"Yes, yes you can. But, will you be happy after that? Think of it this way, you are to fight your father. He can easily beat you and he does just that. Would he feel good after that? if you were in his place, how would you feel?

"You were born with high strength, it won\'t be cheating but doing it won\'t give you mental satisfaction either," Iroh said.

"I wouldn\'t feel happy. I understand, old man. Winning while competing against normal people would be like cheating for someone like me. But how do I make money now and make mom ease up?" Gohan asked.

"Business. I have an idea. You have such a large land. It even has its own jungle. Why don\'t you cut them and sell wood? If someday you feel that the jungle is emptying, you can gather the dragon balls and wish for a new forest. You can make so much money with this." Iroh suggested

"Hmm, that sounds good. I will do it, Grandpa. But I can\'t tell mom before I try it myself first. If I show her the money, then maybe she will agree to this plan," Gohan agreed.

"Yes, but, remember, you should still get a decent amount of study done. At least get one college degree. You don\'t have to work hard, you are already very smart." Iroh advised and patted his shoulder.

Iroh then decided to leave this planet, in fact, the Universe. So, he used the device Alexander had given him and went to a random planet in Universe 11.

As soon as he appeared he had a lot of noise and people were running away from something.

"RUUUN... PRIDE TROOPERS ARE HERE..." They shouted.

All the people running looked like criminals to Iroh. So he caught one and asked him everything. Of course, he had to scare him a bit. He learned about the so-called Pride Troopers.

The Pride Troopers was a very powerful hero team who operates in Universe 11. They were led by Top. The Pride Troopers work under their God of Destruction Belmod, and thus can be classified as agents of destruction.

The Pride Troopers were originally just a motley crew of people with different ideologies and backgrounds, though they grouped together due to all being on the side of justice. When evil attacks, the Pride Troopers are called out to travel to the planet and eliminate any threats. The team seemingly has at least several bases among the galaxy.

The organisation was known to have existed in Universe 11 for at least 240,686 years as it existed before Belmod became the God of Destruction.

"Hahaha... You can not run away now..." A big old man appeared in front of Iroh. He was a tall and burly alien humanoid. He had tan-coloured skin, yellow eyes with dark lines under them, and a large white moustache that covered his mouth.

Thinking that Iroh was also a criminal, he proceeded to attack.

Iroh dodged and asked. "Who are you?"

"I love my people! I love my land, and my planet! I love my Universe! Leader of the Pride Troopers, I am Top the Bold! Whether they\'re small... or medium-sized... or extra jumbo! My fist of iron justice... will smash evildoers in any size they come!" Top proclaimed.

"Okay, want some tea?" Iroh asked nonchalantly as he blocked a punch from Top. Shocking the giant man.

Top was also a candidate to become Universe 11\'s next God of Destruction. He was a humble, hot-blooded, and respectful fighter who strongly believes in justice. So, he was not an unreasonable person.

Feeling shocked and weird, Top stopped himself from punching. "Who are you?"

"I am Iroh. Nice to meet you."

"Why don\'t you tell all your friends to come and have a drink? I come in peace." Iroh said.

Top waved his hand a little and soon lots of people in red uniform came.

"One of us is in meditation so he can\'t come. Where are you from, Iroh?" Top asked. He had not felt any kind of malice from Iroh so he was respectable to him.

"I\'m from Universe 7. I\'m just travelling and seeing some sights." Iroh replied.

Top\'s eyes widened a bit. "So you are from there. Belmont told me about you all and I must say you are doing great. Ridding the universes of sins is JUSTICE."

Iroh accepted the praise with a laugh, "Haha, thank you, my friend. We are doing what we can. But even if we cleanse the universe, for now, it won\'t solve the problems permanently. Good and evil are always in a constant war."

Top nodded, "True. But we must keep on going further. Besides, I would have made sure your work was not in vain in the long term but don\'t have enough staff."

"Fighting won\'t be needed if you give better teaching to the kids. The current generation can not be changed all of a sudden, my friend. They can only be stopped from doing bad. What\'s important is the future generation. If they are taught good morals from a small age, they will grow up to live by those morals." Iroh suggested.

Top understood the meaning behind Iroh\'s wise words. He quickly decided to go and have a chat with the God of Destruction Belmod about this idea.

After this meeting, Iroh went to the next destination. This time it was a planet in Universe 6. He saw a boy with spiky hair. The boy was standing in the field alone. Shouting with his fists closed.

"HAAAAAAAAAAA..."

*Poof*

But nothing happened.

*Sigh*

"Why am I so weak? I\'m a failure." He muttered to himself.

Iroh walked forward. "Failure is only an opportunity for a new beginning. Don\'t lose faith in yourself child."

[A/N: Hey, guys. We are in the last stretch of this arc now. I will be making some short world trips (Selected from some of your choices.) before we finally jump to DC.]
