Last time on Dragon Ball...

After discovering the Bansho fan,

Goku and ChiChi returned to the Ox King's castle

to battle the mysterious fire which had threatened

to consume the entire kingdom.

Using the power of the Bansho fan,

Goku created a massive wind,

strong enough to blow out any flame.

ChiChi and the villagers watched in awe

as Goku's efforts seemed to extinguish the blaze.

However, the end was far from over,

as the fire continued to rage with increased fury.

The plan had failed.

Hope gave way to fear

as the villagers watched their town burn.

And ChiChi's desperate attempt to save her father

seemed in vain.

Papa!

Hurry, Goku !

The Mystery of Mount Gogyo

Hurry, Goku !

The Mystery of Mount Gogyo

"Mystery of the Dark World"

You... are... going... out!

Oh... Papa.

Goku, stop! Don't use the fan!

Wait a minute!

Huh?

Uh?

Baba, what's wrong?

The Bansho fan has no effect on these flames

because this fire was forged in the magical furnace.

Magical what?

All you're doing by waving that fan

is making the flames stronger.

What should I do? Watch?

Hmm... hmm.

Behold, the magical furnace.

It's shaped like an octagon. The clue was about the furnace!

Yes. In fact, the Bansho fan

was originally used to create fire for the furnace.

But there has to be some way we can put it out!

There's always a way, but the peril is beyond imagination.

You must journey to Mt. Five Elements and find Tajoro.

Tajoro... Is that some kind of monster?

He's many things, including the keeper of the furnace.

Well, if this Tajoro can help us

save the Ox King, it's worth the risk.

Tell me how to get there.

Watch the crystal ball.

This is the entrance, the Gate of the Five Elements,

located on Frying Pan Plain.

It's on the other side of the world.

The other side?

If you embark on this quest,

do so with the knowledge that you may not return.

The path you must travel is not an easy one.

It is fraught with dangers both seen and not.

Mt. Five Elements is home to more than just the furnace.

It is also the gateway to the dark world.

The dark world?

It is where the shadow souls dwell, the home of evil.

Only in spirit form can the journey be made successfully.

You mean we can't get there without dying?

If you could, you'd be the first.

It is said that the foot of the mountain

is guarded by warrior spirits, barbaric assassins who destroy

any living creature that approaches the barrier.

So you see, the trick isn't how to get in,

but how to get in alive.

Just once, couldn't it be easy?

It looks like we're getting close.

You sent them to Mt. Five Elements?!

Old woman, are you insane? They'll be killed!

And by the looks of it, they won't be the only ones.

Anyway, it was their decision. I warned them.

ChiChi... Goku...

It looked smaller in the crystal.

Are you ready?

Yes.

I've never seen a road like that before.

Stay on your guard, ChiChi.

Don't worry about me. I'm not afraid of monsters.

But I do fear sharp spikes.

Uh-oh.

Hey, I know! We can use your cloud.

Huh? Right! Nimbus!

–Huh? –Where is it? Flying Nimbus!

Flying Nimbus!

It must not wanna go near the mountain. We're on our own.

What can we do?

We'll have to jump.

Come on! It's no problem!

Tell me that when I'm on the other side!

No!

Whew!

Okay, I take it back. I am afraid of monsters!

Ah!

Goku, what now?

Oh, no. I think we're in trouble.

Shadowy figures in mist can't be good!

Can't we... just talk?

You are not welcome here. Leave!

We don't want any trouble. We've come to see Tajoro.

Leave now or be destroyed!

I had a feeling you'd say something like that.

You will not enter the mountain.

Try and stop me!

No!

You won't get rid of me that easily!

Fine!

Foolish mortal.

Die!

Uh?

I'm trapped!

Goku!

Goku!

They're strong...

But so am I. Let's see you avoid this!

Ka...

Me...

Ha...

Me...

Ha!

You did it!

Goku, help me!

Run!

What's that?

Giant rock guy!

This is getting us nowhere.

No more games.

So long!

This fight's... over!

Let's go.

Okay!

Ah!

Goku, your leg! We can't stop now!

ChiChi.

Lucky girl, I guess.

Goku, over there!

We can't fight it. Let's go!

I couldn't have healed so quickly. This isn't real.

Don't worry.

Are we seeing the same creature?

This is the perfect time to worry!

It's all an illusion!

Does he know?

Please! Trust me!

You're right!

Hold onto me, ChiChi. We're going for a ride.

Okay!

Incredible!

They're the first humans to ever cross over alive!

Did we make it? Where are we?

It's just as I thought.

Everything we saw was all in our minds.

I never knew I had such a vivid imagination.

All of it, fake.

We were never in any danger.

But I"ll bet this entrance is real.

Not again!

There's nowhere left to run.

I guess...we found it!

This must be the furnace. It's gigantic!

Tajoro, come out! Tajoro!

Tajoro! Hey, can you hear me?

Of course I can hear you.

Ah, Grandpa?

What?

Grandpa? Impossible! Goku?

Yes, it really is you! It's me, your grandson!

But, how did you...

You've grown so big!

You haven't changed at all!

I should hope not. After all, I'm dead.

What are you doing in the Dark World?

I thought only evil was here.

Dark World? Evil?

Those are just stories to keep away the tourists.

This place is a bridge to the other world.

Oh, who is your lovely companion?

My fianceé.

Fianceé?

Yup. This is ChiChi. She's the Ox King's daughter.

Chi Chi, this is my grandfather, Gohan.

Pleased to meet you.

It is an honor. This has turned into a family reunion.

Actually, I knew you when you were just a baby.

I was good friends with your father. How is he doing, anyway?

Horrible! His castle's on fire! That's why we traveled here.

We were told the Magical Furnace could put it out.

Huh? Goku, what are you talking about?

It's okay. Everything will be fine.

Now that you know, you can save his kingdom.

Whoa, hold on, son. It's not that simple.

If the furnace is involved, this won't be easy.

Of course it will! You're Tajoro.

You can do anything you want with the furnace.

Wait a minute. You thought I was Tajoro?

No, I just work here part time.

Gohan?

Grandpa, who is that?

That, Grandson, is Tajoro.

She is the caretaker of the magical furnace.

The name Tajoro is actually an alias for Annin.

I've been assigned to guard her.

Gohan, are you there or not?

Yes, I'm right here.

My grandson stopped by to pay me a visit.

In that case, I shall come to you.

Gohan, my noodles, they're soggy.

I fear there may be a malfunction

with the Magical Furnace's temperature regulators.

Didn't you replace them last week?

Huh?

I don't think there's anything–

So, you're Tajoro!

My name is Goku, and I have a favor to ask of you.

Please put out the Magical Fire!

I beg of you, please help us.

My father is trapped within the flames.

Unless I'm mistaken, the Ox King's castle

is located on the other side of this mountain.

That would put it in the fire's direct path.

Perhaps there's a hole in the furnace.

Then you'll have to find a way to turn off the furnace.

I'm afraid I can't do that, Goku.

What do you mean? Why not?

In theory, if the magical fire were extinguished,

the plains of existence would be thrown into utter chaos.

Actually, that sounds like alot of fun.

Utter chaos? Annin, what are you saying?

Annin, please!

You must help.

Grandpa!

Mh-hm... mh-hm.

I'm sorry, but the magical flame cannot be put out,

for you or anyone.

Now, you wouldn't want to be responsible

for the world's greatest disaster.

Hm?

What is the mysterious disaster

Annin speaks of?

How will Goku solve the impossible dilemma?

Will he risk the fate of the world to save ChiChi's father?

Don't miss the extraordinary conclusion

on the final 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!

What? The world will become a living hell?

That's right!

If you understand, go back from where you came from!

You can't do that! I didn't come here to go back!

I'm even prepared to die!

Geez, this guy really is thick headed.
