Previously on Dragon Ball,

the evil monster, Tambourine, carried out his sinister mission

to seek out and exterminate all members

of the Martial Arts Society.

His master, King Piccolo,

created a new soldier, Cymbal, for the sole purpose

of gathering the six remaining Dragon Balls.

While roaming the wilderness,

Goku stumbled upon a new acquaintance, named Yajirobe.

The mountain boy was displeased with Goku,

who mistakenly ate his breakfast.

Both warriors quickly learned of the other's incredible strength.

This isn't going to be

as easy as I thought.

I kicked him as hard as I could!

Who is this guy?

Following the signal of Yajirobe's Dragon Ball,

Cymbal made an appearance.

Which was cut short by the mountain boy's blade.

No, no, no. Cymbal has failed me.

Majuu • Tambourine

Draws Near ! !

Majuu • Tambourine

Draws Near ! !

"Terrible Tambourine"

Gee, that's a big fire.

What are you going to do with that monster?

What do you think?

I'm gonna eat it, of course.

Late brektis.

Wh-What exactly do you mean when you say brektis?

Lunch, dinner, brektis!

You're strange. And they say I'm primitive.

But, you can't eat that. It's not safe.

Hmm... Delicious!

Wait!

Hmm?

Eating monster is a bad idea. Bad.

Eh. Well, don't you worry about it.

This is my meal, not yours, mine! So back off!

Tastes... like... chicken!

Uh...

What is it?

Nothing. It's your stomach.

Yajirobe. That's your name, right? Yajirobe?

Mmm... Yeah, anything wrong with that?

Cymbal. Cymbal, answer me.

Cymbal, I command you to hear my call and respond.

Cymbal! Where are you?!

It's over. Cymbal is no more. He's dead.

I sympathize with your loss.

He seemed like such a nice beast.

Silence you fools!

How could your feeble,

inadequate brains possibly comprehend how I feel?!

He was of my scales and blood!

I gave him life!

Watched him hatch and spit his first slime!

Why you're, you're right! I couldn't begin to understand.

Exactly! Cymbal means nothing to us!

Hey Pappa! You caught one!

Oh, it's a biggie!

That's it Pappa! You're doing it! You got him!

Ahh!

Hey, that's our fish!

If that is true little bear,

what's it doing in my hand?

Give it back! Go and find your own food!

I have.

Monster!

Giran's back for more food, Pappa!

Cover your eyes, son.

You can't just drop by and steal peoples' things

whenever you feel like it! Meanie!

Who's going to stop me? Your daddy?

When the fish runs out, maybe I'll eat you,

and I'll make a hat from you hide!

Please, leave us alone.

Lights out!

Huh?

Nobody touches my tail!

Are you Giran?

What if I am?

You die.

Ah.

You are daring, and very stupid.

Ahh!

Huh... You fighters are all the same, pathetic.

Hmmm...

Big mistake!

It's you who's made the mistake

of calling yourself a warrior.

Can I open my eyes now, Dad?

For a minute.

On second thought, I think I'll keep them closed.

Good idea.

As a matter of fact, I'll join you.

It's just like the stories Pappa!

A hero has come to save us!

Whoever you are, you're making a big mistake.

This is my village to terrorize. Go get your own!

Oh? Your ambition is limitless.

You dare mock me? I'll rip you into pieces!

Is that the best you can do?

You give monsters a bad name.

Worse, you're way out of your league.

Well, ya never know, I might surprise you.

Here, chew on this!

Huh?

Hmph. Thanks, but it's not my color.

That's Merry-Go-Round Gum.

You can't move a muscle!

Oh, really?

Huh?

It's sad when plans fail.

You should have had a backup.

Anyway, it's time to die.

Congratulations.

No one's ever struck me in a fight before.

I've really got to hand it to you.

I hope my eighth victim

is more amusing than this wretch.

You saved us!

I'm appreciative beyond words.

By slaying Giran, you have liberated our village!

Thank you so much!

Huh?

Pappa? Pappa, say something!

Now he is truly liberated.

Giran was just a job.

Your father, I killed for fun.

So we'll be fighting King Piccolo and all of his minions

for control of the Dragon Balls. Is that it?

Mhmm.

And his possession of the four- star ball puts him in the lead.

What we need is a plan to knock him off his guard

long enough so that we can steal the ball back.

Gotcha, I'd love to knock him off his guard.

Careful, Tien. I understand how you feel,

but King Piccolo is a powerful adversary.

Maverick tactics won't win this fight.

We must work together.

Um, hey, the radar is blinking.

It's a Dragon Ball...

200 kilometers away heading south.

Changing course.

This one should be easy enough.

Pity. I'd like one to last.

Ahhh. That was pretty good. Nice and tasty.

But I need something else.

Don't worry. I'm sure you'll have seconds.

Some more like this? I don't think so.

This is the first one I've seen.

Not many creatures of his size around here.

There's another.

He'll be after your Dragon Ball, Yajirobe.

As long as you're wearing that one, he'll come.

You brat!

That's Mr. Yajirobe to you! Got it?!

I know what's going on here, and I don't need your advice.

I don't mean to make you upset.

It's just that I've fought this monster before.

I know what to expect.

Who said I'm upset?! Do I look upset?!

Ummmm...

I've been schooled

by many of the finest hunters in the region.

I even graduated top of my clan.

Yep. Ya see, I'm what you call phisisticated.

You're like Krillin, but with a nose and hair.

Thanks, but I like my nose.

Still, I could do without them.

Uh, maybe not.

This is nonsense! You're distracting me!

I've got work.

There's a whole day's hunting ahead of me,

and I don't have time to waste on you.

It's about time for you to leave.

Okay. Goodbye!

I'm not kidding Goku.

I never wanna see you again!

Oh, there's one thing!

I once helped bring a friend's father back to life.

There's a chance I may be able to do the same for Krillin,

but I'd need the Dragon Balls,

like the one hanging around your neck.

Can I have it?

You mean this funny, little thing?

I don't understand. Sure, it's nice and shiny,

but how is it supposed to help you bring someone back to life?

The Dragon Balls have special powers.

Yours is one of seven.

Once you have them all, you get one wish.

This is the Dragon Ball

my precious Cymbal was seeking when he disappeared.

That means the one who possesses it

is responsible for his destruction.

I want them to pay and pay dearly for this insult!

Your Majesty,

while its true Cymbal's whereabouts' are unknown,

it's impossible that he was destroyed

by anyone inhabiting this world. Here, we are invincible.

That's great news!

Maybe he decided to take in some sights and lost track of time.

You know how kids are.

That's right.

Yes, maybe I was just dreaming

when I sensed his life slipping away!

I am telepathically linked with all my children.

I sensed his death.

Whoever ruined my creation will suffer.

This is strange. I must be lost.

Better slow down, champ.

Your leg hasn't fully healed yet.

You don't want to spend another month in bed, do you?

It is a bit sore.

At least we're safe out here.

King Piccolo and his army would never think

to look for Yamcha in this back wood palace.

That's true.

They have to search an entire planet.

Besides, Master Roshi and the others will be back soon enough.

Don't worry about Piccolo. If he's dumb enough to show up,

I'll be glad to introduce him to my lead army.

Knock knock.

Huh?

I'm lost. I'm seeking an island nearby identified as NB18250012.

Oh, yeah, you're gonna want to travel south, across the sea.

What a coincidence.

Huh?

That's where we lived before we moved here.

Is that so?

Huh?

You're Yamcha!

Hmmm... Scrawny and lame.

No, it's him, isn't it? It's the monster!

That must make you King Piccolo's "yes" man.

Yes. I mean, well, you don't... Shut up!

Monster!

You're the one who killed Krillin, aren't you?!

You are my next victim.

Eat lead, scaly!

That tickles!

They bounce right off!

So long!

Tambourine!

Tambourine!

We'll finish this later.

You coward!

Master, everything

is proceeding as planned.

I have tracked down and exterminated seven already.

I'm working on the eighth.

That's good news.

I wish I had the same.

Unfortunately, we have a problem.

Cymbal was sent to retrieve a Dragon Ball.

Along the way, he was destroyed.

Destroyed?!

Our response to this crime

must be swift and severe.

You are to abandon your current assignment

and find the assailant.

I want an example made of him. Do it slowly.

I will.

Stay alert

and proceed to coordinates WSC 2933.

Look, he's mumbling.

Do you think he's talking to us or just resting again?

Perhaps he talks in his sleep, sire.

I'm on my way, Majesty.

I will not rest until this vermin is brought to justice.

It's your lucky day.

Enjoy it. I will return soon.

Can't wait!

It's right here.

Unless this thing has frostbite, we found it.

The ball must have found a home in that iceberg

when it fell three years ago. Just our luck.

Allow me, Master.

All right, be careful.

I just had these glasses fixed.

Hyaaaaaaaah!

Aaaaaaaaaugh!

Oh... Now that's a lot of ice cubes.

But, uh, where's the Dragon Ball?

Wait, there it is!

Looks like we're tied.

Uh...

Seems kinda small to grant wishes,

even if there are seven of them.

What kinds of prize could tiny little balls give you?

The Dragon Balls don't actually give you the wish,

but the eternal Dragon who watches over them does.

It's true. I promise.

Well, if I were you,

I'd ask for a bunch of delicious food.

There's only one wish I have

and that is to restore my friend's life.

And after that,

I'll destroy whatever that thing is that killed Krillin!

I thought you only got one wish!

If you have more, you should get your friend a nose.

Goku's wish to confront Tambourine

is about to come true, without any help from the Dragon Balls.

The monster is headed his way and looking for a showdown,

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!

Hey, you! Why are you following me everywhere?!

Cuz you've got a Dragon Ball.

The guy who killed Kuririn and destroyed Kinto'un

is coming to snatch it away at all costs.

Watch me! I'll get my revenge!

Next time on Dragon Ball:

"Son Goku: Anger Explosion!!"

Be sure to watch!

Son Goku • Anger Explosion ! !

"Tien's Atonement"
