Previously on Dragon Ball...

Goku recovered from his exposure to the frosty elements

in the home of his rescuer, Suno.

To show his thanks, he then headed off to bring home

the village chief who is being held hostage

in the Red Ribbon Army's Muscle Tower.

Once inside, Goku came face to face

with the monstrous Major Metallitron,

but a Kamehameha Wave brought the robotic hulk down for good.

Next, the wily Murasaki tried to halt Goku's progress

using every technique in his ninja's bag of tricks.

But in the end, his skills were no match

for Goku and his Power Pole.

Murasaki called upon Android Number 8

to take up the battle.

Your job is to spread mayhem, not philosophy!

I can't do it...

W-What?

You're nothing but a yellow-bellied coward!

Number 8 teamed up with Goku,

and together the two braved their way

to the top of the tower–

Where General White was waiting for them...

Hand over the village chief now!

General White, Sir. Please put an end to your evil ways.

I think it is you should be surrendering!

–Wha–? –Huh...?

What Now, Goku !!

The Hair-Raising Buyon

What Now, Goku !!

The Hair-Raising Buyon

"Horrifying Buyon"

Oh! Oh no...

He's crushed!

Ah... Oh...

The fifth floor...

Wha... What happened?

We fell down here...

This is the fifth level.

Huh?

Uhh...

Eww...

What's this creepy room for?

Uhh...

I don't know...

I was told floor five was secret, and off limits.

Glad you could drop by.

Now listen carefully, fools.

That is if you ever want to climb out of this pit.

Hand over the Dragon Ball that you're concealing, boy.

And while you're at it,

surrender that little Dragon Radar, too.

Why would I give anything to a bad man like you?

To save your own hide!

But if that's how you feel,

then I'll be glued to my monitor watching as you are reduced

to nothing but a pile of little chicken bones

that you put in soup!

Uh-oh, he closed our exit!

Uh... What did he mean by that?

I'm not sure.

But why are you collecting Dragon Balls?

Are you planning some bad wish?

Uh-uh.

One of the balls belonged to my Grandpa.

I'm trying to find it so I can keep it, to remember him by.

That's a relief, I just knew you were a good guy.

Wh-What?

The wall is moving! Where's it going?

Hmmm...?

It's enormous!

I-It's c-cold...

What are you, crazy?

Don't worry about me.

I'll be fine!

Huh? Huh?

Oh!

Aww!

Oh! How did you sneak in here?

Aww...

Did you stray away from your family?

I'll bet your mom and dad must be worried sick about you!

Oh! There they are now!

Off ya' go!

Ah, I wonder if Goku has found the village chief yet...

I hope that they both make it back safely...

Ahh... Ah–

This is the end, my little friend.

Buyon there is going to eat you alive!

Oh, yeah?

He's big, but I can beat him!

Oh, Goku!

I'm... scared!

Hey, don't worry. I've fought tougher guys than him before!

You poor sap!

You may be strong, but nothing will stop Buyon

from satisfying his appetite.

Huh?

Wh-What?!

That punch didn't even faze him!

Well then how about a kick?

Take this you big lump!

Oh, Goku!

Are you okay?

What's with this guy?!

His body's so jiggly that everything I try

just bounces right off of him!

Aaugh...

Ha-haaa!

Now you get it!

He's invincible!

I know I can find a way to beat him!

Oh no! What's that?!

What's happening?!

Oh no! Snap out of it!

I need you, Goku! Don't let him eat me!

Is it warm in here...?

Goku!

You're making me hungry!

Huh...? Huh?

Aahh...

He's alive!

Oh, boy, I'm glad to see you!

Whew!

That sure was close!

Another minute and he woulda gobbled me down!

Miserable brat!

No! You will not get me with that again!

How can I beat him?

All I can do is run!

I gotta try something else; this isn't working!

Goku, you look exhausted.

Yeah, and I'm getting hungry, too...

Ooh! I got it, time to try my Kamehameha Wave!

Eighter, step back!

This oughta stop that guy in his tracks,

but it always makes me so hungry!

Sorry, tummy, but here goes!

Ka...

me...

ha...

me...

haa!

No...!

But that's...

That's always worked before!

What's the matter, boy? No luck?

I could be persuaded to give you another chance.

Hand over the Dragon Ball and radar,

and I'll get you and your pal outta there.

No deal!

I already told you! I'm not going to give you anything!

Stubborn fool!

Do as you wish. It makes no difference to me.

You can't protect the ball when you're a pile of horse meat!

No more playing around, Buyon!

Destroy them!

Just try it!

Devour those two!

–No! –Ah! Eighter! Eighter!

I'll save you, Eighter, hang on!

You okay?

Yes, thanks to you.

I know there's got to be a weakness

somewhere in this guy's body!

Let's go!

Haa!

Ah, we must give up.

There's no way out.

It's wrong to think like that, Eighter.

My Grandpa taught me you should always have hope!

Oh, okay...

Laugh now, 'coz you won't be laughing for long!

I don't get it!

He can't be unstoppable!

If only his body wasn't so...

flabby!

If he was firmer, I wouldn't bounce off like that!

Wait a minute!

I didn't think we'd be able to thaw you out!

How did I get here, anyway?

Me. I found you in the woods.

You were stuck out there, frozen stiff.

I got it!

I got an idea!

You do? What is it?

Oh, yeah, that's it!

I've got it all figured out!

Wait'll you see this!

You're joking!

Just give up! He's unbeatable!

He's beatable! Just wait and see!

Hi-ya!

Ha!

Eighter, how can you stand this cold?

Oh! I am not affected by temperatures at all.

Well, I'm freezing over here!

I can't take it!

Can you keep me warm in your jacket?

How is he?

Is he frozen?

He is! That's some smart thinking!

I think he's hardened enough!

We got 'im now!

C-Cold!

Yeah!

This boy is unreal!

Now, then...

Surprise!

Hey, this place sure is nice and toasty!

Power Pole extend!

Hey, Eighter! Grab on!

Don't worry, its safe.

Just a little bit more...

You should never let your guard down.

That stings!

You've got to be kidding!

Bullets don't even effect you?

I felt it!

That really hurts!

You better stop it!

Thanks a lot, friend.

Waugh! This can't be happening to me!

This is your last chance, mister!

Let the village chief go now!

Goku has finally conquered

the terrible Muscle Tower and its evil guards.

The only remaining obstacle between him and his goal

is the terrified General White.

Their struggle begins, next time on Dragon Ball!

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!

I'm finally going up against the boss!

Now give back "Village Chief"-san!

Or you'll get a taste of my fist!

I'm too hungry, I can't win!

Let go! My weakness is...

Where are you, you filthy bastard?!

Next time on Dragon Ball:

"The End of Muscle Tower"

Don't miss it!

The End of Muscle Tower

"The Fall of Muscle Tower"
