[NARRATOR] Last time on Dragon Ball Z,

thousands flocked to the small island where the

World Martial Arts Tournament was scheduled to begin.

And the guest of honor appeared as promised.

Goku is back! Permitted to the living world

so he can fight in the tournament.

[NARRATOR] It was a time for hugs and laughter,

as friends were reunited after years of silence.

[GOKU] And I've missed you, ChiChi.

[NARRATOR] And a father met his son for the very first time.

[GOTEN] I'm Goten.

[GOTEN] Daddy!

[GOTEN laughs]

Whoa, kiddo.

[NARRATOR] But like many good things,

there were strings attached.

[BABA] Listen up, Goku.

Remember that you only have twenty four hours.

That's all I can do.

[GOKU] Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I know.

[BABA] I'll see you then...

[NARRATOR] Goku has just one day to spend on Earth.

So as the tournament gets under way, how will he make it count?

[SPIKED FIGHTER growls]

[SPIKED FIGHTER chuckles]

[SPIKED FIGHTER yells]

[grunting]

[CROWD gasps]

[FEMALE REPORTER] This way!

[CROWD cheering]

[SPIKED FIGHTER laughs]

[S FIGHTER grunts]

[S FIGHTER laughs]

Tell us where you're from, sir!

Satan City!

You know, I'm one of the top students at Mr. Satan's gym.

[VIDEL] Where could Gohan be?

[SHARPNER] Oh, Videl...

[VIDEL] Hmm? Sharpner?

Hey, just wanted to bring you some good luck.

No thanks.

[SHARPNER gasps]

[VIDEL] I bought an expensive camera just for today.

I'm gonna take pictures of you.

[VIDEL] Oh. That's nice.

[SHARPNER] Hey! You're pretty. I think your hair's shorter!

Aren't you observant.

[SHARPNER] Listen, Videl, I hear there's this great juice shop

on the island... How 'bout we--

[VIDEL gasps]

Yeah, I can tell you're excited...

I'll take you...

[whimpering]

Eh?

Videl?!

[TRUNKS] Goten... Your dead father looks a lot like you.

You think?

But then he said we were disqualified

because we both touched the ceiling.

I don't think he looks all that tough.

I bet you my father could beat him no sweat.

But my brother says Dad was the strongest

in the whole universe!

[GOKU] So what's with the hair, Krillin?

I thought you were naturally bald.

Oh, no. I just kept it well-waxed.

I coulda sworn I told you that...

Then why'd you stop doing it?

I mean you just don't look like, y'know, Krillin anymore.

Guess love makes ya... change some things...

Whoa, watch out everyone! Android 18 is here!

Look, he noticed. How cute.

Someone please tell me she's still not

terrorizing the planet!

Well, actually, uh, Goku, 18 and I have gotten married...

[GOKU gasps]

You mean you live in the same house as her?!

[KRILLIN chuckles]

That's all part of it! And we even had a kid together.

Whaa--?!

But... But how?!

Spare me...

How do androids have babies?!

As it so happens, she started out as a human being!

Dr. Gero just remodeled her a little bit.

[GOKU] Oh, okay. Then, congratulations!

[KRILLIN] Thank you...

[VIDEL] You're lucky I recognized you!

[GOHAN] Hmm? Hey, Videl!

Hey, Gohan...

So what's with the turban and shades look?

Shh!

[GOHAN] I'm entering as the Great Saiyaman.

[VIDEL] Well, I won't tell a soul.

How about you? Have you perfected your flying moves?

Now I'm twice as fast! Come on!

[VIDEL growls]

See? I won't hold anything back.

I am impressed.

[VIDEL] Huh...?

Videl! I've been looking all over for you!

[GOHAN] I'll leave you two alone.

[SHARPNER growls]

Slow down! What's your name?!

The Great Saiyaman.

Really? Is he a friend of yours?!

Well, we do spend a lot of time together

fighting all those would-be criminals.

Right, Great Saiyaman?

That's right! I guess...

Who the heck is this guy?!

[VIDEL] You don't listen well. No one knows his real identity.

Right, Great Saiyaman?

[GOHAN chuckles]

Right... Saiyaman? Hmph. Spare me...

My... Did I hear jealousy in your voice, Sharpner?

No! No way!

[LOUDSPEAKER VOICE] All contestants for the

World Martial Arts Tournament:

Please report to the warm-up pavilion.

Preliminaries will begin with or without you.

We better hurry over there!

Yeah! We better!

[VIDEL] See you later, Sharpner.

[SHARPNER growls]

Rragh!

I'll find you out! Nobody steals MY girl!

[FEMALE REPORTER] And I think it's clear

those stomach crunches have paid off!

Good luck in the tournament!

Here comes the last of them!

Good, 'cause I'm tired of brown-nosing.

[FEMALE REPORTER] That's not on tape, right?

Hi! Where are you guys from?

Hey, look... Don't those two look familiar?

From where?'

I'm not quite sure-- Huh?

[laughing]

[FEMALE REPORTER] Hello there! Can you tell us

where you're from?

Who? Me? Um...

I'm dead, just back for the day.

Oh?

Ohhh!

[FEMALE REPORTER laughs]

That's very funny!

No ma'am, it's not a joke.

[CAMERA MAN gasps]

[FEMALE REPORTER] Alright... Uh...

Tell us where you got that head accessory!

It's fabulous!

[GOKU] What? Oh, this? It's not an accessory.

You see, when you die--

[screaming]

Well! I see that Piccolo hasn't changed.

[KRILLIN chuckles]

Fool! What have you done to our camera?!

That had an entire day of brown-nosing!

I'm sorry!

I promise... This has never happened before!

Hurry now...

The locker rooms are right this way.

The preliminaries are starting soon,

so you'll have to be quick.

Gee...

I can't believe they won't let me fight with grown-ups...

[KRILLIN] Ah, you'll get your chance, Trunks.

What I want to know is which one of us gets to fight Mr. Satan!

It sure would be nice to finally throw that goofball

off his high-horse!

[GIRLS squealing]

[TEEN FIGHTER] Next?

--[GIRLS murmuring] --[TEEN FIGHTER laughs]

[TEEN FIGHTER] One at a time, ladies!

You'll all get your turn...

Sir, is there anything we can do for you?

You're looking a tad green.

Go away! I always look like this.

[BOTH squeal]

[BOTH] Sorry! Our mistake!

[TEEN FIGHTER] Now, girls, I have to go!

[SHARPNER] If I could only get a good picture of him...

[TEEN FIGHTER] No, girls! I'm leaving!

[SHARPNER gasps]

[screaming]

[GOKU & GOTEN laughing]

[TRUNKS] We're ready!

[KRILLIN] Sorry for the wait!

[GOKU] No problem, guys!

Goten and I were just having some play time.

So, let's go!

Darn! I'll unmask you before this day is through,

Mister Saiyaman!

[GOTEN & TRUNKS laughing]

[TRUNKS] Whoa...

[FIGHTER A grunts]

[FIGHTER B grunting]

[KRILLIN] Now this is a crowd.

[GOHAN] Are all these people competing?!

[VEGETA] I say we wipe them all out now.

[ANNOUNCER] Huh?! Is that...?

Yeah! It's you!

[GOKU & KRILLIN] Huh?

--Oh, hi! --Hey!

[ANNOUNCER] Wow. And here I'd started to think

that I'd never see you guys again.

I mean, how long's it been?

You haven't come out to compete in the World Tournament in ages!

But hey, tell me something,

it wasn't Mr. Satan who beat Cell, right?

C'mon, I know it was you!

[GOKU & KRILLIN chuckle]

Listen, I can't tell you how glad I am you're here.

Without you, these last few tournaments have been nothing

but Capital-B Bo-ring!

Huh...?

Say, are all of them with you too?

[GOKU] Yeah, you could say that.

Great! Even better!

So, you think you guys can get through the fights

without blowing up the ring this time?

We'll try.

And that's exactly the kind of attitude

this tournament has been lacking!

Ha-ha!

You haven't...

always had that gold ring over your head, have you?

Well, actually I've been dead ever since my fight with Cell,

but they let me come back this one time for a day to compete.

Uh... Uhhh...

Well, that's weird! But, hey, with all the things

I've seen you do, it'd be dumb to start doubting you now

am I right, Goku, baby?

[thinking] Good.

At least one person knows how great my dad is...

[ANNOUNCER] Well, I've got business to take care of now

--but good luck to all of you! --[GOTEN laughs]

--I'm expecting a super show! --[KRILLIN laughs]

See you at ringside!

--[CROWD cheers] --[ALL] Huh...?

Yeah!

Line up if you want an autograph from the greatest fighter ever!

Cause I'm not charging for the first fifty!

[MR. SATAN laughs]

--Hey, look! --[CROWD] Go Satan!

--That's him! --Go Satan! Go Satan!

--Yeah, the champ! --Go Satan!

[CROWD chanting continues]

[CROWD screams & cheers]

[KRILLIN] Hmph! People will cheer for a goldfish

if you put a champion belt on him!

[GOKU & GOHAN laugh]

Here we go!

[GOTEN laughs]

[FROG ribbits]

[SHARPNER] Haah!

[SHARPNER groans]

Could've... sworn I had him...

Attention, please. The prelims for the

World Martial Arts Tournament now begin!

One hundred and ninety-four people have entered

the adult tournament.

Unfortunately, there are only sixteen spots.

And by the rules, the defending champion, Mr. Satan,

is automatically qualified.

If you do the math, that leaves fifteen spots!

So, here's the deal...

We're gonna to play a game with Mister Saiyaman!

Got it?

No prob!

[KID B] Yeah!

Sixteen minus...

To ensure fairness, we'll select the finalists

by way of punching strength.

The fifteen people with the highest scores on the machine

will be given the fifteen spots.

Punch machine? Hmm...

Well, that's a new one!

[MONKS grunting]

Hey!

Here's the money shot!

[camera clicks]

[SHARPNER growls] Great!

Leave it to the big guy!

[PRELIM REF] Now, to test out the new punching machine

and give us a score to go by,

we ask the defending world champion to make the first hit!

Mr. Satan, would you come on out please?!

[MR. SATAN chuckles]

[MR. SATAN] Heeeey!

Does anybody want this?!

[FIGHTERS cheer]

[MR. SATAN] Yeah!

[KRILLIN sighs]

I can't decide what's worse:

Him or his fans...

Rrrrgghyyeeah!

[GOHAN] Videl!

Hey there, Saiyaman!

[VIDEL giggles]

[GOHAN chuckles]

'Scuse me!

[GOHAN] Hmm?

[KID A] Will you help me see?

[SHARPNER] Come on, kid!

[KID A laughs]

[camera clicks rapidly]

Perfect! I couldn't see with the shutter moving,

but it's gonna be on film!

And as soon as I develop these pics,

I can make him into a laughing stock

and Videl will just have to like me!

I'm sure you'll want a picture of this!

Yeaaah. Oh yeah!

[MR. SATAN grunts and shouts]

[thinking] This has to stop.

[screaming]

Noo! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

[screaming continues]

Piccolo?

A ring is a place for fighters, not publicity seekers,

and I don't want you holding back any of your strength

because you're afraid of being discovered.

I want a good fight...

I see! Thank you!

That pose would've made a great poster...

Oh well. I'll show 'em something!

[MR. SATAN yells]

[MR. SATAN yells]

Satan Punch! Raagh!

Incredible!

Mr. Satan has just scored one hundred and thirty-seven points!

[CROWD gasps]

[MR. SATAN pants]

[VIDEL laughs]

Good luck to all you fighters!

I hope one of you at least breaks a hundred

so we can have a decent match!

All entries please form a line in front

of the punching machine after you've been assigned a number.

And anyone who is entering the Junior Tournament

please gather over here by me.

Well, it looks like Mr. Satan's gonna win again this year.

Okay, kids! Good luck!

Sure...

Where's Tien? Shouldn't he be showing up?

I don't know, Goku.

I think he and Chiaotzu both said they weren't coming back.

Next up, number six!

[FIGHTER D grunts]

Okay... Ninety-seven points!

[FIGHTER E grunts]

[PRELIM REF] Number sixteen... Seventy-seven points!

[GIRL] Good luck, Videl. We're rooting for you!

[VIDEL grunts]

[FIGHTER F growls]

[PRELIM REF] Ooh! Very nice! One hundred and twelve points!

How absurd!

Next, please! Number eighteen!

Lookie there! That girl's pretty cute for a fighter!

Yeah! But I bet she scores a thirteen!

[KRILLIN] Now, 18, remember to take it easy!

[ANDROID 18] I know.

Seven hundred and seventy-four?!

[gasping]

Wha...?

It seems to be out of order...

Sorry about that...

That's what you call taking it easy?!

It's not my fault these guys are weaklings...

Okay, ma'am, would you like to try again?

[gasping]

Two hundred and... three?

One hundred... and... ninety-two points...

[gasping]

[gasping]

[PRELIM REF] One hundred... and eighty-six points?

[gasping]

[PRELIM REF] Two hundred and ten points?!

The pressure mechanism seems to be broken...

See if you could fetch the other machine?

[MONK E] Of course, sir...

[VEGETA] Now stand aside!

[PRELIM REF gasps]

[yelling]

Oh, wow...

[GOKU sighs]

So much for restraining...

[VIDEL whimpers]

[NARRATOR] It's safe to say Vegeta and the other Z Fighters

have qualified for the tournament,

in addition to destroying a punching machine,

a dozen cameras,

and the speaking ability of a couple hundred fighters.

Stay tuned for more mayhem on Dragon Ball Z.
