The sensational World Martial Arts Tournament

has ended with Jackie Chun capturing the win from Goku.

Our hero has no idea that his opponent was really

Master Roshi in disguise,

or of the exciting adventure that lies ahead!

So, are you up for a second helping

of training on Master Roshi's island?

You bet!

Now hold on!

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

You boys have earned a break

before we begin the next phase of training.

It's time you learned some lessons

from the greatest scholar of all: Life!

Really?

Um-hum

Great, then I'm gonna go

find my Grandpa's Four-Star Dragon Ball!

Huh?

What's the rush?

There's plenty of time.

Are you sure you wanna start looking now?

Mm-hmm.

Wait a minute!

What in the world is a Dragon Ball?

It's a magical ball my grandpa gave me.

Oh.

Mmmm... Maybe you should take someone should go with you...

I'll have the flying nimbus to keep me company.

Goku! He's right.

You going out alone is a bad idea.

It's too scary!

It'll be an adventure!

I'm sure Krillin would love to go!

Uh...? Actually, Master, I was looking

forward to going with you to your island

so we could start training for the next tournament.

Hmm?!

Look, kid, what do I have to do, spell it out for you?

I need you to leave! Scram!

You're cramping my style!

In the next tournament I want to score big!

So do I.

More than you'll ever know.

I can see it now.

Cocktails at sunset. A gorgeous gal, Launch!

Yes!

Nice dress, big blue eyes, big ohh–ha!

Total hottie captivated by my rugged good looks!

And not another soul around...

Oh, well.

I guess there goes that little slice of heaven.

Where are you going?

Uh...

I guess the rest of us will go back to West City.

Yeah, that'll be fun.

A nice relaxing drive across the desert.

Yeah, there you go kids.

Get out there and see the world.

Master?

Yes?! What?

Does that box have my things inside of it?

Yes, and it's called a suitcase.

Wow! A suitcase...

I'll never get used to all this great stuff!

You really need to get out more...

This trip'll do you good.

Boy, sure are a lot of magazines in here!

Uhh... You better get a move on, kid!

Yep!

Nimbus!

Hi there, Nimbus.

He flies on a cloud,

but he still goes ga-ga over a suitcase.

Mm-hm. Naïve.

Hey, Goku!

On second thought, you're gonna need my help.

Thanks.

But you can't ride the Nimbus cloud. Remember?

Oh yeah... Never mind.

The Dragon Radar will guide you.

You do know how to use it, right?

I'll figure it out.

Time to find my Dragon Ball!

Be careful!

Bye! Bye, bye!

Good luck, kid!

So long, then!

I kinda feel bad letting him go all alone.

Something tells me he'll be just fine!

He's a special boy.

Mmmm! Very special.

Mm-hmm!

And so, Goku must part company

with his friends as he sets out in pursuit

of the Four-Star Dragon Ball.

The future is unclear for our hero,

but one thing is certain:

the adventure has just begun!

Another Adventure

The Wandering Lake

"The Roaming Lake"

Oh!

Are you trying to hit every hole in the street or what?

Actually, there is no street...

That's why it's called off-road driving,

and I'm doing the best I can.

You can take the wheel any time you want.

Oh-h, can I...?

Anything would be better than this torture!

I've never seen Bulma this upset.

She does seem a bit irritable.

I am not upset, got it?!

This is me happy!

Right. We can tell.

Be quiet!

Master Roshi said he'd wait

for me right here while I got my ice cream.

Is this a test?

Ah, Eureka!

Satin, lace, little straps! Ooh!

I betcha they have the type you can eat, too.

Yeh-heh! Roshi, behave yourself!

Hee-Hee-Hee!

Actually, I did promise myself

I'd get Launch a souvenir!

How can I help you?

Something wrong?

Well, uh...

I was wondering if you'd help me, eh...

...test these undies out...

You know... for quality control...

Sir, please!

I don't know what to say to that!

I'll... buy several... and who knows...

if I like what I see,

there might be a tip in it for you, too!

Is–that–yes–or–no?! Heh heh heh.

Ugh!

Heh-heh-heh-heh!

Let's see... Got one!

Sure looks real far away!

Did you do it, Nam?

Did you win the tournament?

Nuh-uh...

Then truly all is lost.

Not yet... I did get water!

We're saved!

Here it is!

A bit small.

Everybody stand back!

Praise you...

You have brought a ray of hope to the people.

I am very grateful to help my village,

but it is the tournament we must thank for this prosperity...

You see... all seemed lost...

After losing the match, I fell into despair.

That is when I met Master Roshi.

It was he who gave me the Dyno-cap which was empty.

He explained how it could hold an abundance of water,

for there it was plentiful and free.

You can fit vast quantities

of anything you want...

We are truly fortunate to receive such a gift.

I fear the water I have brought

will not sustain us long... It is most strange.

We have been through droughts before,

but I do not remember the river ever drying up.

That's because it hasn't.

At least, not like this.

It is as if the desert inhaled the river in one breath.

I've never seen anything quite like this occur.

Perhaps there is some problem upstream, at the source.

Like what?

You mean something unnatural?

There's no telling.

To be honest with you, I'm just grasping at straws.

In all my life, I've never seen the village hit this bad.

It's almost like we're being punished for some misdeed.

Don't let it get you down, my boy.

All we need is a miracle.

Is such a thing possible?

Hm-mm. Anything's possible.

Just look at the Roaming Lake.

A Roaming Lake...? Can this be?

When I was a child,

my father told me the story of a nearby village crippled

by a terrible drought.

One day, a lake moved across the ground

and settled at the base of the village.

It quenched their thirst, fed their crops,

then left as quietly as it came.

I will find it.

If this Roaming Lake exists,

I will lead it to our village.

Tell the people their suffering will soon end,

for I will not return without it.

Whew!

I will not tire.

Huh?

My turn!

I call upon...

...the Aerial Attack!!!

Swift as lightning!

Loud as thund–Huh?

Well, guess who's coming to dinner?

Let go, now!

Water... Need some water...

Hey!!

Wow! Big Puddle!

Ahh! Yeah... this is great!

Unhand me, bird brain!

Huh?

C'mon, put me down, you stupid bird!

You're going to make me mad!

I've got to make you go!

I've got to get water for my people!

It's Nam!

Nimbus!! Go!

Faster!!

Oh, Goku!

Don't worry. I'll get you down! Hang on!

I am hanging on!

How did this happen?

My village needs more water.

I was searching along the riverbed,

when this beast captured me!

I'll help! Drop him off, now!

Do I look like a taxi service?!

Hey, you should watch where you swing that tail.

You almost knocked me down!

If you don't leave me alone,

I'll do more than that!

This piece of meat is my dinner, kid,

but now that I look at him, he is kind of scrawny.

I'm sure I'll have room for dessert!

Power Pole extend!

You're a bad bird!

That sure was a big mean bird.

With sharp claws!

Ah! Stop it! What are you doing?!

Oh, you are a boy!

Yes, yes, I am!

Sorry, it's hard to tell sometimes.

You can check me if you want!

No.

Just so you know, the people in my village

greet others by shaking hands. Period.

Too bad someone forgot to pack extra gasoline.

A shame it won't run on good looks.

I'd keep it going forever.

Okay, look... we can't just sit here.

I know, you could change into

an umbrella and give us some shade

Oh, joy!

Don't listen to him.

I'll bet he doesn't even know how to change into an umbrella.

Oh yes I do.

I went to the same Shape- Shifting School you did, Puar.

Until you got expelled in the first semester

for stealing the teacher's papers!

Don't you ever stop talking?

Fine, I'll do it!!!

Hey, how about a fan?

This is much better.

It sure beats baking in the sun.

Yep.. that's me... bacon in the sun!

♪ Both that person and this person are full of desires... ♪

How far does the river go?

Far...

Very Far...

♪ Miracles happen to everyone at least once... ♪

♪ Cheerful, great romanticism... ♪

♪ Come! I am excited! ♪

Un-believable...!

The water flow is being choked by that dam.

Who could be responsible for this?

♪ Amazing Wonderland! ♪

Set us down my friend, so we can investigate.

Hey, those guys look familiar!

How can these beasts horde so much water?

I will ask whomever leads them to set the river free.

Okay!

The dam stays put, got it?!

I do not understand your resistance to this!

It is completely unacceptable!

How can you lay claim

to that which rightfully belongs to everyone?!

You can no sooner own the water than the sky above us!

Would you be so quick to open the dam if you owned it?

My friend doesn't understand you.

He only speaks the language of money!

My village is poor.

We have nothing to offer but our gratitude.

Then we have nothing to give.

Please, I beg you.

Yes, you're good at that!

Please, my people are dying of thirst!

If they are thirsty,

let them drink the sand...

You little insect! Tear him apart!

Heh-heh! What's this, your pet?

If you want him, you gotta go through me!

Oh yeah? Sounds fun.

Let's introduce this runt

to the meaning of pain!

What the heck was that?

Wha–

Uh, hey boss.

You're Goku...

Uh... Hey! It's Giran!

This little pip-squeak knows you?

This "little pip-squeak" is the one who beat me

in the tournament... so show him some respect!

I remember you from the tour-r-na-m-en-t.

You're not still sore about losing the match are you?

I was humiliated!

But that has nothing to do with the dam you want to destroy.

It is a magnificent structure, built long before any of us.

I would be happy to release the water, but I can't.

The dam is impossible to break

because it is held together by Merry-go-round Gum.

It is very much...

...unbreakable.

Then I have failed my entire village!

I can break the dam for you!

You think so?

Well, sure... I'll try to.

Ka...

me...

ha... me...

HAA!

He really did it!

So much for the Merry-go-round Gum.

You did it!

That was fun!

Hahahahaha!

You are one amazing kid.

This is great!

Now we can all go swimming, yeah!

Thanks to you, there are many things we can do now.

This will be a day long remembered.

Darn it!

Just when I was starting to feel tanned!

Well, I hope everyone is happy!

Once again, I sacrifice my own comfort

and safety for the group, and what thanks do I get?

I get dropped on my keister!

I'm a mess.

I've got sand in places I didn't even know I had places!

It's okay, cheer up!

This storm caught us all by surprise.

You did a good job.

It's not easy to do.

Too bad you got expelled or you might have learned

how to concentrate and

hold a shape for more than five minutes.

How about I concentrate on busting your... Ahhh!

Come on! Hurry!

We have to get inside the car!

This storm is getting worse by the minute!

It's over.

The desert has robbed us

of our last hope for salvation.

Whoa!

Oohh! It's that big puddle!

The Roaming Lake! It does exist!

I never thought I'd see

the day my father's words would come

to pass before my very eyes!

Tonight we have been smiled upon.

It's beautiful.

Yes. This has been a day of miracles.

It has brought us you, Goku!

Huh?

Oh no!

South City.

I don't believe it.

The storm blew us right back were we started.

I need a vacation!

I need a bath!

As the day draws to a close,

our hero has a lot to smile about.

By finding the Roaming Lake, he has helped

to secure the future for Nam and his village.

Now he flies on towards his next exciting adventure

as the search for the Four-Star Dragon Ball continues.

Be as brave as you can be, a childlike love of fantasy,

The world is a mystery for you and me.

A miracle, an adventure too, a single wish waits for you,

The beating of your heart will see you through.

When you think you can't go on, give it another try,

The power of your youth is strong, and as big as the sky.

Search all over the valley, the mountains and you'll see...believing in yourself sets you free!

Come on, I'll give you romance!

Come on, I'll give you paradise!

Liberate the “you” that you keep inside.

Come on, I'll give you romance!

Come on, I'll give you paradise!

Make your dreams come true; you'll see fantasy...magic can happen to you!

Heya! I'm Goku!

On the next episode Pilaf and his gang reappear.

And then there's another group in search of the Dragon Balls.

But I'm not gonna let anyone take my Grandpa's keepsake.

Next time on Dragon Ball:

"Pilaf and the Mysterious Army"

Don't miss it!
