Last time on Dragon Ball,

a damaged, but determined Goku,

summoned one, last powerful punch,

and put a super sized hole in Piccolo!

This daring attack sealed Piccolo's fate for good.

I won!

But Piccolo wasn't about to lose the battle

and just walk away.

He had something special to leave behind for planet Earth.

Good luck, my son.

Get revenge for my demise. Destroy all of my enemies.

The defeated demon went out with a bang,

and sent Goku into a tailspin.

Luckily, Yajirobe was there to catch him before he hit

the ground. The battle was over,

but Goku soon learned that his dearest friends

had become victims of Piccolo's madness.

What about Master Roshi?

Is it true he's gone?

Yes, it's true.

And Chaiotzu as well.

The Eternal Dragon?

With no way of summoning the Eternal Dragon,

will Goku be forced to accept the loss of his closest friends?

Nyoi- bo's Secret

Nyoi- bo's Secret

"Lost and Found"

Bye.

See ya!

What, is that–?

It's a little too quiet here.

Yeah.

I wonder what happened?

I'm not sure.

We'd better move in and get a closer look.

That looked a lot like Goku in that air car that just flew by.

So do you think he beat Piccolo?

Shh. Come on, hurry up.

If he did win, then I wonder what happened to Tien?

Shh.

Is that Tien?

It's really you.

Yes, I'm very happy to see all of you again.

I guess that Piccolo was a pretty tough fighter, wasn't he?

He demolished a whole city by himself.

And you won. Mm.

Good. Almost there.

That's great! So Goku won the battle?

Yeah, you should have seen him.

I've got so much to tell you.

–Hi, T.V. Central? –Uh-huh.

I just wanna let you know that the battle's over,

and everyone's all right!

Are you serious? It's really over?

That's right! He's been defeated. Piccolo is dead!

But how can that be?

Who in the world is powerful enough to do that?

Well, let's just say good has

won out over evil once again!

That's great, but I need a name to tell the people.

Bye!

Wait! Hello?

Ladies and gentlemen,

Piccolo is gone. He has been defeated!

There's nothing to worry about.

Eastern City, I mean the whole world is safe once again.

Did you hear that? Everything's gonna be all right.

It's over, we are free!

That's a big 10-4, Piccolo is no more!

The battle is finally over. We're free! Over.

Copy that! I'll meet you back at headquarters.

Over and out!

Without Piccolo around,

I can concentrate on all the other bad guys around town.

You're just in time! I decided to turn over a new leaf anyway.

Congratulations on behalf of everyone, my king.

Thanks, but I believe we owe everything to that little boy.

Hurray for Goku.

Thanks to him, the world is safe again.

Mm. That's right.

He won!

Hear that? It must mean Goku won.

Great! Thatta boy!

It's time to wake up, Goku. We made it.

We're at Master Korin's place.

Good to see you alive, Goku. Nice work.

Master, I need your help. Please, help me.

Hey, kiddo, don't worry about it.

I'll take care of all your wounds

until you are as good as new.

Uh? It's not that. Uh...

Huh?

I'm hungry.

No way! You mean he was really that powerful out there?

It's true, even I'm no match for him anymore.

As far as I can tell,

he must be the most powerful guy in history.

I bet Krillin would have somethin' to say about that,

if he were here now.

I'm sure he'd be jealous. Ya think?

That's 'cause he and Goku were

always trying to out do each other.

Outgrow each other?

–Huh? –Uh...

You know, I sure wish the dragon were around.

Without him,

those Dragon Balls are nothing more than worthless stones.

Uh?

Oh no, it's a giant egg!

Come on, I don't have all day.

We interrupt our regular programming,

to bring you a special presentation of our

award winning docudrama called,

"How the Mysterious Boy Defeated Piccolo."

Catchy title, huh? Enjoy!

Oh no, Jebediah! Help!

Help me. Ah!

What's all the racket about?

Come on, the whole world is at peace now.

Is it too much to get a little peace in my own home?

It was the biggest egg I'd ever seen. Huge!

I thought it was going to get me,

like a big fish floating by with nowhere to go.

A big egg?

Is it a dinosaur egg?

Yeah, it might be.

Oh! Maybe it could be a child.

You know, like a gift from the heavens or somethin'?

You're kidding?

I'd almost bet on it, my dear.

Then, crack it open.

Then go get my club. Hurry up!

Mm-hm.

Look at me!

I'm cured! Ha! Yeah, I feel great! I'm good! I'm great!

And a- one, two, three...

Those Senzu Beans really did the trick, huh?

I'm beginning to understand how

you were able to beat Piccolo on your own.

The way you've recovered from your injuries

is truly remarkable, Goku.

Master Korin, didn't you let Piccolo go because you were

afraid you'd lose to him if you fought him yourself?

Uh... I, uh...

Well, to be completely honest,

I thought the odds would be better if Goku fought Piccolo

instead of me.

I'm glad things turned out the way they did, though.

You fought an impressive battle.

You really should be happy to be alive.

Wow.

What else could I do?

Goku was our only hope,

and if he lost the fight that would mean it'd be up to me

to take care of things.

Mm?

It was all part of my plan.

Someone had to be around to collect all the Dragon Balls.

My boy, had you of lost, I'da revived you,

as well as everyone else destroyed by Piccolo.

So Master Korin, you knew about the Dragon Balls the whole time?

Of course I did. You see, I know everything.

Then I guess it's no big secret

if I tell you the Eternal Dragon was killed by Piccolo?

What did you say?

No, really? The Eternal Dragon is no more?

Oh, no. I never thought Piccolo was strong enough

to do something like that.

It's not fair!

If the Eternal Dragon was alive today,

he could bring everyone back to life.

There's nothing you can do about it, Goku. Just let it go.

People are always getting into trouble all the time.

It can't be stopped. That's just the way it is.

Mm-hm.

Yes, it's quite correct, but don't forget,

those people who were attacked by Piccolo

must spend eternity all alone,

and will never be able to rest in peace.

It's true. There is no way for them to go to the other world

because their lifeless bodies float in limbo.

The poor souls'll be lost forever,

unless they are revived by the Dragon Balls.

That's good to know.

I'm glad Piccolo didn't get me.

That's terrible!

My friends are going to be miserable forever,

and there is nothing we can do?

That's right.

There is nothing we can do now that the dragon's gone.

No! Hold on, I think we might have a chance left.

Are you sure?

I can't believe I could forget such an important thing.

Yes, this might just work.

Great. What do we do?

It's simple,

you just have to meet the one who created the Dragon Balls,

and ask him to bring the Eternal Dragon back to life.

You mean a person actually created the Dragon Balls?

Of course, silly.

It's not like they just appeared out of thin air on their own.

It's true.

So who is it?

You mean you don't know who made them?

It was Kami, of course.

Who's he?

Hey, what's the deal? Is this some kind of joke?

I thought you really wanted to help us.

Instead, you make up some crazy story.

So all I have to do is meet this Kami guy,

and he'll revive my friends?

Hey, Goku.

Come on, you know this Kami guy doesn't exist.

He's just make believe.

Korin's just pullin' your leg, that's all.

Oh, he exists all right. But if you want to meet him,

you must be strong and pure of heart.

Only a chosen few have proven worthy enough

to have a personal meeting with Kami.

Hello!

Yeah?

Goku, you have earned this right to meet Kami,

whereas Yajirobe has not!

Who cares?

That's great! So when do I get to go and meet him?

Kami is here, on top of this temple.

No way! He's up here? Come on. This is the top of the temple.

Well, Kami is floating high above the tower.

And when I say floating high up in the sky,

I mean really high, smarty-pants!

Is this another one of your practical jokes, Korin?

You're not fooling me.

There's nobody floating up there.

Yeah, I don't see anything.

You'll just have to trust me.

Good! All I have to do is fly up there.

That's impossible. You can't go any higher than this.

Ah. I bet he could get up there

pretty fast on the back of a rocket ship.

Oh, no, that won't work either.

Even if you took a rocket up there,

I know Kami would send it back right away.

He doesn't like to be disturbed.

Okay. So, I'm stuck here,

unless there's another way up to the top?

Oh Goku, you already have a way to get there,

and you don't even know it, do ya?

Remember you have that very special Power Pole of yours?

Use it, and it'll take you to Kami.

Use my Power Pole?

The Power Pole was originally created

to get the owner from Earth to this temple.

You see, a long time ago,

Master Roshi begged me to lend it to him,

so I let him have it.

I thought he'd be the last.

I didn't think anyone else would be qualified to carry it,

until you came along.

I see. I never realized it was that important,

but it was a big help when I fought Piccolo.

I'd better hold on to it.

Uh, uh... Hey! It's gone.

Where'd it go?

I know what happened to it.

You dropped it when you fought Piccolo.

You're right!

Flying Nimbus!

Find that Power Pole, Goku!

It's the only way to get Kami. I'm counting on you.

Mm. Don't worry. I'm gonna find it, Master Korin.

No matter what it takes.

I never knew my Power Pole

had such a secret past.

So, King, what are you going to do now?

The first thing will be to rebuild the city,

and then next, the castle.

After that, you'll have to wait and see.

Next question, please.

Uh, King, do you know

the identity of the boy who defeated Piccolo?

Yeah, who is he?

Uh, the boy? Ah...

What is that? Is that a cloud?

Huh?

It's him!

Hold your fire!

Oh, I'm so glad you could come.

I've been looking forward to meeting you.

Sir, have you seen my Power Pole?

Power Pole?

Yeah it's about this long.

Do you know anything about this?

We haven't found anything like that. Everything was destroyed.

There's nothing left but ashes.

It must have disintegrated in the blast.

So that boy is the one who defeated Piccolo?

Yes! We all owe him a great big thank you.

What do I do now?

Your name?

And your date of birth?

What's your favorite color?

Are you married yet?

I've got to get my Power Pole back!

Oh no! It can't be gone.

Wait a minute, I know who can help me. Baba!

She'll know what to do!

Wait, please! Where are you going? Come back!

What a mysterious little boy.

So that's what happened.

Can you help me find my Power Pole, Baba?

Please, I'll do anything to get it back. You just gotta help me.

So I see.

You want me to find this Power Pole that helped

you defeat Piccolo, is that right?

Yeah, can you do it?

Let's take a look in my crystal ball.

Oh, boy!

Don't get your hopes up, I just got this out of the shop.

Right. I'm getting a vision.

It's getting clearer, and clearer. A-ha!

Oh, it's his house. That's where you'll find your Power Pole.

You mean it's there, inside Master Roshi's house?!

Thank you.

I still can't believe it, a kid like that saved the world.

And now he gets to meet Kami face to face?

I guess it's true, some people are just born lucky.

I know what you mean.

That explains how I ended up working for you.

Hm...

Hello!

Oh, Goku!

Where's my Power Pole?

Goku!

Goku?

I knew you'd need it, so I put it over there.

It was here? Well, where did it go? Is it missing again?

Uh. Not back here. Not in here.

Nope. Ah!

Uh? Uh...

Here you go!

You found it.

You dropped it while you were fighting Piccolo,

so I grabbed it and brought it back here.

That's great. Now I can use this to meet Kami,

and if all goes well,

Master Roshi and Krillin will come back.

Uh...

Thanks everybody, I'll see ya later!

And I'll be back with Krillin and Master Roshi.

What did he say?

He's going to bring them back to life?

He's going to meet Kami?

Now I know everything's going to be fine!

Look up there, it's that kid that beat Piccolo!

Whoa.

I can't wait to see my old friends again!

Now that Goku has his Power Pole,

he'll be able to meet Kami,

and with any luck, bring his friends back to life!

But all is not well in the world because a new danger is growing.

An old enemy has been reborn,

and he's got his mind set on only one thing,

getting even with Goku!

This is just the start.

I'll get Goku. He's all mine.

I'll have my revenge.

Piccolo's back, and Goku had better watch out.

See what this monster has up his sleeve,

on the next exciting episode of 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!

Yay! I got Nyoi-bo back!

Now I can get to God's place!

Wait for me, old man!

Kuririn! Chiaotzu!

I'll bring you guys back to life!
