Summary:

Yamcha VS. Shin
The announcer then told everyone that they would start the fourth fight now, which is Yamcha VS. Shen! Shen walked out, big hair and thick glasses, with one hand behind his head, while saying thank you to everyone. Two people commented about Shen, asking if he's really a fighter and to say he's an old fart! Krillin, with bandages on his head, tells Yamcha that he's lucky, since his opponent is harmless. Yamcha grins, telling him that it's unlike his! Yamcha walks out, telling his friends he will end this quickly. Puar screamed out for Yamcha, while Oolong demanded her to shut up. Bulma then whispered to Puar happily, asking if sees his fighter, so he'll win easily. Shen then bowed, hoping that they will have a good fight. Yamcha just waved, saying that he hopes as well, slowly. Yajirobe, in a crowd now, saying that Yamcha is one of Goku's friends, but he will lose, so it's too bad. Goku watched Shen, while Krillin asked what was wrong to Goku or if he had something on his mind? Goku told him he didn't but the old man did seem a little, but then stopped. Krillin asked what he meant, a little what?

The announcer then screamed out for the fourth fight to go! Yamcha and Shen then got into fighting positions, with Yamcha saying he's ready, but he wants Shen to go first! Shen asks if he's really ready, so he'll begin then! Shen then put his hands over his head, telling him he'll come, then made sounds like a monkey! Yamcha told him to come and not be hesitant about it. Goku tried hard to think of who it was, while everyone laughed at how Shen was attack. Shen then got a look in his eye of readiness and smiled a little. He then ran quickly to Yamcha, but foolishly, making Yamcha smile while he dodged backwards when Shen tried to chop him. However, Shen "fell over" too much and when he fell completely, he kicked Yamcha on the side of the stomach, making Yamcha completely stunned. Yamcha fell over in pain on his stomach, while Shen got himself up. The announcer laughed heartily at Yamcha's misfortune, saying that Shen kicked him on the side of his stomach! Yamcha still got himself over, while Shen brought himself up. When Shen got up, Yamcha tried to laugh it off, saying it's nothing and would have happened to anyone. Shen then brushed himself off, saying he was sorry and was embarrassed, falling in public. Yamcha then told himself angrily, he should be the one embarrassed, saying he didn't want to laugh. He then told himself he would end this quickly!

Yamcha then got in a stance, telling Shen that he would attack now, so get ready and don't get angry. Shen then got surprised, saying yes! Yamcha instructed himself to knock him out of the ring. Yamcha then went for a high kick, making Shen duck. But, Yamcha kept going, and Shen's head connected to Yamcha's pelvis. Yamcha couldn't breathe, with his eyes huge from his pain, then fell on the ground, holding his groin. Shen then looked over, seeing Yamcha roll on the ground still holding himself. The announcer brought the news to everyone that it was awful! He tells that Shen tried to protect himself, but hit Yamcha with his head, when Yamcha went into the attack (It just proves, a good defense is a good offense!). The announce then gave Yamcha a break, saying since it was below the belt, they will wait until he gets up. Krillin laughed a bit, while Puar begged Yamcha to get up. Bulma just said it was unbelievable, while Yamcha finally got himself up, mad as ever. The announcer then asked for an applause for Yamcha, since he got himself up! Everyone clapped as Yamcha recollected the memory of his pain. Shen then pointed, saying he was sorry and asking if he was okay? Yamcha then directed his attention to Shen, still very angry.

Yamcha then yelled out that it didn't hurt and didn't feel a thing, since his body is well trained! Shen then put one hand behind his head, smiling and saying that's good. However, Shen tells Yamcha that he shall win, not Yamcha, but won't get any satisfaction this way. Yamcha then snapped to attention, laughing, asking if he's certain he will win? Shen says he shall, making Yamcha laugh again, saying he's really funny, but wants to fight seriously now. Shen tells him to go ahead, so they will fight seriously. Shen then tells him once more to go, but Yamcha tells him to go first, so he may see his moves. Shen then smiles, saying he's coming! Shen then pushed his body forcefully to Yamcha, with his elbow connecting to Yamcha's chin, making Yamcha fly backwards. Krillin, the announcer, Bulma, and the spectators cried out, while Goku just raised his eyes up. Yamcha grabbed his face, slowly getting up, looking behind him asking how? Shen had his back to Yamcha, but his face turned to him instead, saying he was underestimated because of his appearance. He explains he forgot about that, so he didn't watch his movements. So if that's the case, he is not a true master of martial arts.

Yamcha just rubbed his blood of his lip, learning intently. Shen then asks if he is awakened, telling him he did that so he may have more talent. Kamesennin then asked who is he, while Yajirobe said that he was right, that he's not normal! Everyone just starred silently, until Yamcha broke the silence by saying he understands and is awakened, but does not like Shen's manners. Yamcha then gets himself ready in a stance, telling him that it is annoying him so he will have to win no matter what. Shen smiles with his hand behind his head, saying he can't let that happen and will HAVE to win. Yamcha then goes for an attack, asking what is he talking about!? Shen the smiles again, both hands ready, saying he will give another lesson. Shen grabs both of Yamcha's hands, and while in the air, kicks Yamcha's feet, telling him that's not good. While Yamcha is on the ground, Shen tells him to watch his feet!
