Goku and Kuririn won their way one after another through the preliminaries,

and were eventually allowed to enter the Tenkaichi Budokai!

Further, Yamcha fell within those eight.

"Watch Out! Kuririn"

We did it!

–We did it! –We did it! We did it!

Excuse me!

Excuse me...

–Excuse me... –Excuse me...

So many people!

It doesn't look like we'll be able to find Muten Roshi-sama

or your friends like this, huh?

Mister...

May I...?

There they are! Everyone's together!

Hey now, where have you been?

N-Nowhere. This place is too big,

and though I made it to the toilet okay, I lost my way coming back.

Pops, while you were gone,

Goku and the others were designated to appear in the tournament!

Both Yamcha and Kuririn, too.

Mm-hmm. I heard so from the stadium announcer.

Well, that's one load off my shoulders.

Ah, but never mind that. Bulma-san...?

"Budo Temple"

I bought this from that souvenir stand over there.

My, a T-shirt!

Yeah. I wonder how it looks on you.

This... is for me?

Yeah...

I also got this "martial arts" character key holder.

Wow, how nice! Thanks, Turtle Hermit-san!

I-In return, let's say... you know...

...you allow this old man,

with very little time ahead of him, to have his desire? Just once...

...let's play Pafu-pafu... okay? Pafu... pafu...?

Y-You should have gone to the preliminaries, too.

Oolong!

–Hey! –Goku!

Congratulations! You finally clinched it, huh?

Everyone was incredible, you know!

You gave it to them as well as you ever have!

You did well. Nicely done.

Old-timer...!

Thank you very much! This is all thanks to you, Muten Roshi-sama!

Now then, we will begin the Tenkaichi Budokai shortly.

Will those eight who are entering please assemble at the temple's main hall?

You guys have to go assemble now.

–Mm-hmm. –Right!

Okay, we'll see you later, then!

Good luck!

Now, then...

He's as tiny as ever, huh?

Huh? Where did the old guy go?

What's the matter? Has he gone off once again?

Yeah.

Really? You saw everyone?

Mm-hmm. It was just like old times!

M-Missy, you're entering too, then?

Pee-yew!!

Out of my way, out of my way!

Who was that?

T-That guy is tough! He has fearsome, superhuman strength.

However, what's more fearsome is his super-stench,

said to be from never having taken a bath since the time he was born!

He stinks so badly, you instinctively hold your nose!

That way, he can keep his opponents from using their hands, and attack them.

His foulness is his weapon, huh?

My nose is as sharp as a dog's, so it really affects me!

Right! All entrants, please come together!

Could we have you stay back a little bit?

So then, we will now have a drawing

to determine your opponents, and the order in which you will appear.

When your name is called, please draw one slip.

–Um, one moment... –Yes?

I want to fight against this girlie.

Please, do not ask to have things your way!

He's got no sense of romance!

Now then, I will read the names. Um... Namu-san

Yes...

Number 5.

Let's see, number 5... that's the third match.

The monster Giran-san!

Number 8... the fourth match.

Bacterian-san!

N-Number 1... the first match.

–Yamcha-san! –Yeah!

Number 4... the second match.

Kuririn-san!

Y-Yes!

Can your hand reach them?

Number 2!

Number 2, yes? Right, the first match, fighting against Bacterian-san.

Let's see... Mago Gosora-san...

Mago Gosora-san?

Aren't you here? Mago Gosora-san!

One, two, three... this is strange...

Could that be "Son Goku" there?

I-Indeed! How rude of me.

S-Son Goku-san, are you here? Son Goku-san?

Yes!

Number 7... the fourth match.

Lan-Fan-san!

Number 6.

Jackie Chun-san!

Number 3.

This is how it has been decided.

The matches are based on one-point victories.

By falling off of the platform, which is to say, the battle ring,

or saying that you give up, you will lose.

However, eye-poking and attacks to vital areas are against the rules.

What's a vital area?

To use an unrefined turn of phrase, it means your balls.

Um, I don't have those...

Now then, the matches will begin shortly,

so please wait here until it's your turn.

Say! Say! Say! Say! Say!

What about lunch?

Are you going to eat right before the matches?

Wouldn't you rather wait until they're over?

I'm gonna eat!

Well then, have some lunch prepared for him.

Understood. This way, if you please.

Kuririn, you're okay?

Y-You've got to be kidding! I'm so nervous, I couldn't get it down!

Excuse me! Another helping!

Ladies and gentlemen, we apologize for the long delay.

We now commence the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai!

So then, we will now announce the matches for the first round.

"First Match"

In the first match...

Bacterian vs. Kuririn!

"Second Match"

In the second match...

Jackie Chun vs. Yamcha!

"Third Match"

In the third match...

Lan-Fan vs. Namu!

"Fourth Match"

In the fourth match...

Mago–er, Son Goku vs. Giran!

Very soon, the first match,

between Contestant Bacterian and Contestant Kuririn, will begin.

The winner of this tournament will receive a cash prize of 500,000 zeni!

And now, before the first match begins,

we will hear a few words of welcome from the chief priest of Budo Temple, here.

Very well, sir, go ahead.

Woof!!

Thank you very much.

So then, the first match begins!

Will both contestants please make your entrance?

Good luck out there, Kuririn!

You can beat him for sure, you know!

Y-Yeah...

Over here, we have Contestant Kuririn,

who is the youngest entrant at this tournament

at only 13 years old!

And this stinky gentleman over here,

said to have never taken a bath since the time he was born,

is Contestant Bacterian!

So Kuririn is the top batter, huh?

You know, it sure is stinky.

Hey, that little guy has done well just to enter, for goodness' sake!

Hey! I'll be rooting for you!

Now listen here...

If you fall out of this ring, you lose!

If you are knocked down, and a 10-count is taken, you lose!

If you say "uncle," you give up.

The match has no time limit.

Match 1, begin!!

Nicely dodged, you impudent boy!

Now then, have a sniff of the stench from my mouth!

And furthermore...!

Ah! Kuririn!

Uh-oh, Contestant Kuririn quickly goes down!

1... 2... 3...

It was a pungent attack, both of mouth and crotch!

It must be unbearable!

What a vulgar technique!

Kuririn, get up!

Hey, hang in there, pee-wee! Hang in there! Come on!

I'll strangle you to death!

Uh-oh, Bacterian is not just a smelly guy!

He's using a neck-hanging move on Contestant Kuririn!

This is punishing!

Kuririn! Bat his arms away!

1... 2...

Why, you kid...!

3...

Contestant Kuririn has nowhere to go! If he falls from the ring, he loses!

Oh, dear! Contestant Kuririn has caught

Contestant Bacterian's impossibly large rear end!

In that case, my finishing blow!

Oh, my! There it is! The silent-but-deadly!

This is what you'd expect from the champion of stench!

Under Contestant Bacterian's fierce attack,

Contestant Kuririn cannot regain his feet!

What's this?! He continues on even more, with several kicks!

Even so, what a dirty assault!

Contestant Kuririn appears to be on the verge of defeat,

without having launched even a single decent attack!

I've done it!

1... 2...

–Hang in there, Kuririn! –Get up!

Get up!

Kuririn!... Kuririn!...

Kuririn!... Kuririn!...

5... 6...

Get up, Kuririn! Don't lose to that guy!

–I did it! I did it! I did it! –Kuririn, think about it!

The stench is all in your mind! There's no way you can smell it, right?

You ain't got a nose, do you?

That's right!

9...

Oh, my! Contestant Kuririn has stood up! He's up!

He barely beat the count! Unbelievably, he's standing up!

Thank you, Goku!

All right... Here I go!

No nose? You're one outrageous guy!

But my odors aren't they only weapons I have!

I-It's so foul! His phlegm!

Will Contestant Kuririn be able to completely avoid his phlegm,

which disgusts even elephants, making them run away?

Uncle!

Oh, my! This has been a miraculous reversal!

Contestant Kuririn comes away with a marvelous victory!

You did it!

Yahoo!

You did it! You did it!

You did it! You did it!

Congratulations, Kuririn!

T-Thanks!

Even to Bacterian, someone else's gas is stinky, after all!

We are now cleaning the ring.

Please wait for the second match until we finish deodorizing!

The world is indeed a big place!

There are foes that you cannot beat just because you are strong.

What battles still await Goku and the others?

Come on, fantasy,

Oide fantajii

Heya! I'm Goku!

The remaining participants are very strong!

Kuririn has resisted well against the bad smell!

On the next episode it's Yamcha's turn.

He told me he has trained lots! What sort of techniques is he going to show us?

I'm looking forward to seeing them!

Next time on Dragon Ball:

"Yamcha vs. Jackie Chun"

This promises to be very interesting! Don't miss it!
