Previously on Dragon Ball,

Goku fought Mercenary Tao for control of the Four-Star Ball

in their second confrontation...

The young warrior's first encounter with

the killer-for-hire nearly destroyed him, as he endured

one bone-crunching blow after another.

Fortunately, Goku was prepared for the rematch,

thanks to the intense training he received

from Roshi's old teacher, Master Korin.

Desperate and near defeat, Tao retreated to Korin's Tower

in hopes of acquiring the legendary Sacred Water.

All this artwork.

You'd think they could carve some steps.

I can't take all this waiting.

There has to be something we can do.

There is, and I've put it off for too long.

Ha! I knew it! You've got a plan, right?

Yes. To eat!

Hey! How come you're not eating anything?

What're we gonna do?

I'll bet he's made it all the way to the top already.

No problem. We'll take care of him later.

Oh, I see. You have some trick planned.

Otherwise you'd be as worried as I am.

No tricks.

Aw, you can tell me, Goku! What's your secret?

A good nap!

How can he sleep at a time like this?

You're funny, Bulma...

All this time I thought you were a boy!

Underwear!

Underwear?

What in the world is he dreaming about?

Bulma! Don't be mad!

"Bul-ma"?

Mm-hm. Hm... Interesting.

I love reading. So many great pictures!

Mysteries of Eastern Philosophy

I did it!

I made a new and improved Dragon Radar!

Oh, that's great. Let me have a look.

See?

You pig!

Ah! Hey!

Huh?

You're revolting!

Wait a second!

I only bought that book for the compelling articles!

Yeah, right!

How can you waste your time with that smut

when your best student is lost and in peril!

Mysteries of Eastern Philosophy

Of course you were very productive

building that useless radar.

Spare me your sarcasm.

It will work. We have a problem, though.

It seems someone is jamming the frequency!

Hm...

Isn't there any way we can scramble their radars

without losing ours, too? How is this an improvement?

Now nobody can find the Dragon Balls!

Including us!

I'm sure that Tao will bring back

the ball once he finally destroys the kid.

Well, he sure is taking his sweet time about it!

He'll probably be back soon,

but it's a good thing he doesn't charge by the hour.

Ah! At last! The top!

The water is mine!

Who in their right mind would live in such a place?

Hm. What do we have here?

Looks like tap water to me.

What is this thing?

Yeah, does a number

on a guilty conscience, doesn't it?

Huh?

Who might you be?

I'm Korin, Keeper of the tower.

Korin? You?

That's right. You're not from around here are ya?

You'd be wise to show some respect.

That's quite an ego for a little kitty.

Kitty? Is that supposed to be your idea of a joke?

I've had enough of this conversation.

The sacred water is powerless without me.

Hand it over.

Fine then. Kneel over there and look at the wall. Now.

You can't order me around.

No one's allowed to see me draw the water.

That's just the way it's done.

Get on with it then.

If I remember correctly, I told you to kneel!

Whatever. But don't try to give me

some fake stuff, or it's filet meow for dinner!

Here you go!

It's the real sacred water?

Yes. Made from the very same batch

that made the boy stronger.

Not to your liking?

I need to test my strength first.

Not on me, buddy!

No, I'll spar with that pillar over there.

Dodon ray!

Now that's a strong column!

Well, it is sacred stone.

It doesn't get much stronger than sacred stone.

So if this water is genuine and I drink it,

I will be able to break the pole to bits

with no trouble at all, right?

I am sure you will be very happy

with the results of your little test.

Huh?

One of the brats.

It seems hopeless.

By now he must be ten times stronger,

Goku won't be able to beat him anymore.

What'll I do if he does the same thing to Goku

that he did to my poor Daddy?!

He happens to be standing in just the right spot.

If the water doesn't work out, and you'd better hope it does,

I'll just drop this pot directly on his head.

That's a pretty weird and disgusting idea, big guy.

Well, why don't we see if we have to resort to that?

Now the proof!

Remember, it's-it's a very thick column

It's the moment of truth!

You will pay dearly for trying to fool me!

Just settle down.

I'll calm down when you produce the sacred water!

Listen, the so-called sacred water

is only plain tap water, and that's exactly the same thing

the boy drank when he was here.

I'm done playing around.

Stop lying or I swear I'll drop this thing.

No, no!

Whoa, look, it just took a little while for your ray

to take its full effect on the stone!

I'm going to pulverize that miserable brat this time.

You can count on it!

Whoa, that was a close one!

He was really gonna crush that kid.

Eh, but I think my little stunt did just the trick.

He thinks he's invincible now!

Wait!

You want a lift?

Hm?

Here!

I offer free limo service.

I'm supposed to ride on this?

Climbing down from here is almost

as tough as the trip up.

You don't wanna waste all your energy

on the way down, do ya?

It looks like the kid's date with destruction

has arrived early.

I won't stop working on this Dragon Radar

until it works perfectly with no interference!

There's no need to worry about Goku.

But I feel in my heart that he's in grave danger.

Ah! Heart trouble you say? I'll check it out for ya.

I feel great! I slept really well last night.

Did you?

No, I couldn't sleep because I'm too worried.

He's probably had the water already!

It's only tap water.

What?! It's just regular water?

That's right! There's nothing special about it at all!

But... huh?

Why did that old cat insist I take his cloud?

I got the impression he didn't exactly care for me.

Oh, well. I guess that's his loss.

I'll never see him again.

That was quick thinkin' there, Korin.

We didn't need him gaining extra strength

from the climb down the tower, did we?

Now!

It's him!

What happened?

Ah! I'll get you for that, fur ball!

You're back. Sooner than I thought, too.

I'm in a hurry to finish you off.

Really? You look kinda tired.

Don't ya wanna rest first?

Of course not, you fool!

Now get ready to be annihilated!

Oh, yeah?

Please be very careful, Goku.

I will. And don't worry,

we'll get him for what he did to your father!

Thank you.

Do you have any last words?

No I don't.

And I think we've talked enough for today!

Witness the power of the sacred water!

Snap out of it, Goku!

Oh, why did you let him hit you like that?

This is the end!

Oh, this is awful!

Oh! Not good.

That boy is really

takin' a beating from that bully!

Hm. That little glass of water

made a world of difference.

You're out of your league!

It's too bad that you never learned to stay out of the way,

you should have left the fighting to the professionals!

You really did get better. You're almost as strong as me.

You're alive!

I've got to be dreaming!

I've been studying you!

Your breathing gives away your next move!

I will crush you!

That's better!

Great job!

Ouch!

I didn't even see him coming!

How does he move so fast?

I could have sworn there were two of them pounding me!

It was like a pair of tornadoes!

You should quit.

I can't surrender to a child!

I could never look at myself in the mirror again!

Imagine the shame! What do I do now?

I give up! You win!

Huh?

I admit my defeat. Please forgive me.

I'm sorry... I'll never hurt anyone again.

Uh...

Huh?

Please let me go! I'm sorry!

I guess we can let you leave...

Do you think that's all right, Upa?

Uh...

Hey!

Accept this apology!

Ah! It's a bomb!

Sayonara!

You fools!

Uh-oh!

He's gone!

–Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! –Yeah!

Commander!

What is it?

The homing device that was attached

to Mercenary Tao's belt has stopped

transmitting all signals.

What does that mean?

Perhaps he damaged it

fighting with the boy?

I finally finished it! Yay!

Now we have a dragon radar that's immune to interference!

That's wonderful!

How about a soak in the hot tub to celebrate?

Mm... Okay!

Well, I can dream!

That's weird.

I wonder why these two Dragon Balls are together.

That must mean that someone else

is trying to collect all of them, too. Huh.

I know!

This place on the radar must be

the headquarters of the Red Ribbon Army!

Okay, I'll go there and pick up the other Dragon Balls

and meet you back here!

That's dangerous!

There's probably a whole lot of them and I bet they're strong.

You shouldn't go by yourself!

But to make a wish you have to have

all of the Dragon Balls, including those two.

Please be as careful as you can!

Don't worry. I'll be back real soon.

Hey, Flying Nimbus!

Okay, you stay here and keep an eye on this place.

As soon as I round up all seven Dragon Balls,

I'll hurry back and then we can bring your dad back to life!

Great! You're a good friend, Goku!

So long!

Goku sets off on a course for danger,

as his quest for the Dragon Balls leads him

to the front door of the Red Ribbon Army.

How can one boy challenge an entire empire...

...and live to tell about it?

Find out as the final battle 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!

Hi! I'm Bulma!

Really now, where did Son-kun go?

Ah! There he is!

Huh!? That couldn't be...

No way! Isn't that the Red Ribbon Army's base?

You've got to be kidding me!

Even if it's Son-kun, he doesn't stand a chance alone!

He'll get killed!

Next time on Dragon Ball:

"Go, Goku! The Assault Begins"

Don't miss it!

Go, Goku ! The Assault Begins

Go, Goku ! The Assault Begins

"Confront the Red Ribbon Army"
