One of my favorites fan-manga. Not sure if anyone has read it because it's in French. But I can easily follow the story from the pages. The story is not Gohan "Jr" as it's about Grandpa Gohan. The original Gohan. The art is hit and mass at times I'll admit. Sometimes it's meh and others it's good. I think this is a nice fanmanga and should be read. Not sure if this ever been posted or even allowed since the pages are in French. If you can't understand the artwork kinda helps. Don't know if there is a english version. The manga is in the spoiler tab since I just put every page. Will update this thread every update.

That's all the post as of 16/08/2013(Aug 16th). So far I love it. Also before anyone complain(Just in case):

Power levels establish tension and drama. People who care about them (well, people who care about them in a narrative) don't care about the big numbers or the fancy explosions. If you have character A who's so much above character B, who's the main character, you're gonna be left wondering how in the hell character B, the character we're supposed to care and root for, is going to escape the situation or overcome the odds. It makes us emotionally invested.
If character B doesn't escape the situation in a believable way that's consistent with previous events, then that emotional investment is gone. It was pointless tension, pointless drama made just to suck in the viewer. It has no critical value whatsoever. The audience is left believing that the author can just create whatever scenarios he wants and what happens to the characters is decided by whatever the author wants to happen, regardless of the events that happened in the story. Which, in fairness, is what happens, but the audience wants to be fooled. The audience wants to know that the world they're following has rules. That the world they're invested in isn't going to bend to external factors that are irrelevant to them.
An author can do whatever he wants with the characters, that's not false. But the author should also have the responsibility to make sure it fits in cohesively with the other events in the narrative he has created.

The pictures pretty much tell the story and is not hard to follow. Though I do wish it was in a language I read.
Yeah but I like dialogue. I want to know what's being said.

I've translated the first several pages and don't have for the moment time to do more. I'll post more translations in some unprevisible future.

Hmm...
The story of an unexpected meeting.
And what's this...
But...
What are you doing here little guy...?
But you have a tail?!
No, you seem to be quite a handful.
I'll take you to my home...
I can't leave you here...
OK, those toys of mine should keep you occupied for some time.
Hmmm...
I've prepared some milk...
Ouch!
You really are quite a handful, aren't you?
Ok, enough, we'll get you washed.

You remind me of the Moneky King.
Oh, I know! I will call you "Son Goku".
