Dragon Ball: The Path to Power (1996)

Post by bunniefuu »

Mt. Paozu, thousands of
miles from the giant Capital City.

It's a remote terrain, where fierce
creatures rule, and humans dare not tread.

At least, not normally.

This mountain land is
where the adventure begins!

An incredible journey that friends
will speak of for years to come.

This is the beginning...

of legend!

Wonderful. A monkey or a mountain cat.

Perfect for a meal!

It should be right
on top of it by now.

Well, maybe west a bit.

This'll be big enough for dinner.

Closer...

Weird elephant.

You should be more
careful on the road, Kiddo.

Whoa, the weird elephant's talking.

It must be a monster,
and it wants my fish.

Monster?... What?

What on Earth?

Nobody eats MY fish!

I don't care what kind of a
talking elephant monster you are.

Ow!

Unbelievable, the elephant
monster has a ghost inside.

Try to hijack me!

What'd I do?

Ow, that hurt!

What was that, ghost magic?

I...I just shot you,
you should be dead.

Don't be so
ridiculous, Mr. Ghost.

I train to be hard like a rock.
Your magic can't hurt me!

Now I'll send you
back to your ghost land.

OK, this is too weird.

I am a human, not a ghost.

What's wrong with you?

Human? Really?

Legs in a dress, how much
more human can you get?

Huh?

Don't move, OK?

No, there's still something
different about you.

You look a lot softer
and curvier than me.

Well, yeah, I should hope so!

I mean, you're a
young boy, and I'm a

fabulously beautiful girl.

A girl? You're a real girl?

Wow, talk about a [??] boy.
You've never seen a girl before?

Besides my grandpa, I've
never seen another human.

He had to go away a few years ago.

But before he left he told me if I ever did
meet a girl I should be really nice to her.

Alright, well we can't argue
with your grandpa, can we?

Weird!

So girl people don't have tails?

- Hmm?
- I wasn't expecting that.

I always thought you'd
be big, and hairy.

You have a tail!

I know that.

What are you, some
kind of half-breed?

Every little boy has a tail.

My grandpa told me that himself.

His fell off 'cause he was old.

Could this be true about boys?

And all this time I've
been misinformed.

So much for those stupid
anatomy books I borrowed.

Come on over to my house!

I'll give you food. That's what
Grandpa told me to do for girls.

The Path to Power.

Grandpa! Grandpa!

Huh?

You live in this dump?

Grandpa, I brought a
girl person to our house.

The kind you talked about.

You have a Dragon Ball!

He says hi.

My radar worked. It
led me straight to it!

He didn't say you could touch!

Grandpa's been in
this ball he gave me

ever since he had to go away.

Oh, that's so sweet. Now, you
want to see something special?

Huh?

Ta-dah!

No way!

You have my grandpa too?

Well, not exactly.

I...

didn't know he could double.

Try to understand me, Kiddo.
They're called Dragon Balls.

Dragon Balls?

I got the first of these from my
parent's attic in a box of heirlooms,

from when my uncle died. It
was pretty and I asked about it.

But no one knew what it was
or where my uncle had gotten it.

I did some research,
a lot actually

and I finally found a passage in
an old book that explained it all.

Dragon Balls.

Bright orange stones
with red stars inside.

There's 7 balls in all, marked by
the number of stars they each contain.

You see?

One second.

Look!

Grandpa's ball
has 4 stars inside it.

- That's right!
- Hi, stars.

It's the 4 star ball.

My uncle's was the 2 star.

And a week ago I
tracked down number 5.

So, what are you
collecting them for?

You want to make a
big bracelet or something?

No, you goof,

if I collect all 7 balls at once,
then I'll get anything I want!

Oh, wow!

According to the book, when all 7
Dragon Balls are brought together

they awake some
sort of eternal dragon

The dragon's name is Shen
Long, and he's incredibly powerful

He'll grant one wish.
Whatever you want!

Anything you can imagine!

The book said the last guy to have a
wish became the king of an entire nation.

Which does sound appealing,
but I've got a better wish.

What is it?

Hey, tell me!

Well, I decided always being
covered by strawberries wasn't practical

so I'm asking for
the perfect man.

What do you do with that?

So, you are gonna give me
that 4-Star Ball, aren't you buddy?

I won't do it!

My grandpa lived
here, I won't let him go!

Hey, now, that's
awfully selfish of you,

now gimme your grandpa
so I can get my man!

Nuh-huh. Blaah!

I get it! You're the kinda guy
who thinks, "What's in it for me?"

Huh?

Right...

You hand over that rock and I'll show you
how girls and boys are really different.

I know, soft and curvy, so why
are you showing me your butt?

What do you mean, "why?",
you adolescent monk!

That stuff always
works on soap operas.

Alright, then come with me,
you and your Dragon Ball.

You did say you're
training to be tough, right?

Yeah, of course.

Great!

Getting through all
the dangers we'll face

will be the best training
in the whole world!

It will?

But you can't have
my grandpa's ball!

I get to keep it!

That's no problamo.

I'll just borrow it when we get all 7.

OK, hold on.

Technically, it's not a
lie, I will just borrow it.

It's not my fault the Dragon Balls will all
fly off somewhere once I make my wish.

This couldn't be better, I've got my


This counts as being
nice to girls, right?

- You bet! Let's start the adventure.
- Yeah!

By the way, I'm Goku.

You're the first friend I've ever
had, besides animals and rocks.

What's your name?

Bulma.

Bulma?

That's a funny name!

Oh, stop it! I know it sounds
funny. It's a family name, OK?

Bulma! Bulma!

That's hilarious!
Try saying it out loud.

Bulma!

Look at me! I've had plenty
of time to say my own name!

- Bulma...
- This should do the trick.

Hop in, brat.

I knew it, you really
are a ghost magician!

What is this creature?

It's not magic, you caveman.

It's a capsule storage motorcycle.
They're all over the city's now.

Stop poking it with your
dumb piece of wood!

Hey, take that back!

This pole isn't dumb, it's a
keepsake from my grandpa.

Whatever, little guy,
just get on the bike.

I told you, my name's Goku.

So, what happens
when we sit on this thing?

Do whatever it takes,
just get me the other 6.

Yamcha! Yamcha!

We've got company.

Yamcha! Yamcha!
We've got company.

There's actually another
one not too far from here.

Give me the woman and I'll let you live.

Hi, my name's Goku,
what's your name.

Wow, you're really big.

Goku, I don't think he's
interested in friendly introductions!

Why? He looks nice.

What?

Don't find my bullish
look intimidating?

Not so cocky now, are you?

Hand over the gal or I'll make you
a wonton in my blistering hot soup!

I'm ready to fight if you are!

Hey, what's that hot feeling?

Oh! It burns! It burns!

You swindler! You
att*cked before I was ready!

But I didn't do anything.

Quiet, dwarf!

You burned your
finger in the soup.

- Your kinda weak, huh?
- Nonsense!

Just look at the strength of
my bulging metal kneecaps!

So, you wanna fight now?

Don't you know I'll crush you?
You must think you're tough!

I'm the toughest there is.
Grandpa taught me all the moves.

I wasn't scared, I had
some oil in my eyes.

Whoa!

Easy, slugger.

Wrap me in a blanket
and call me "breakfast".

There! Can you do that?

Of course I can!
That's child’s play!

But unfortunately, I'm busy.

My 5 minutes is already up?

Hey, that's amazing!

You can be a pig too?

Not by my own
preference, believe me, kid.

This is my natural form.

If you don't like it, why
don't you change again?

Because I can't, you half-pint of muscle.

It only works for 5
minutes at a time.

Well, maybe you
should talk to Bulma.

She can make little
things turn into bikes.

Yes! Little piggy better hope
he can do something useful,

like morph into a
stronger roll of tape!

Why did you keep
asking for her anyway?

Aw, come on, don't you
realize who you're riding with?

I saw here from a mile away.

She's the answer to
a lonely pig's dreams!

Huh?

What's going on?

Just a hunch, but I'd
say we're being att*cked!

Jeez, that was close!

I always like to miss
on the first swing.

Then the second's a home run.

Gimme the capsules
and I'll let you live.

You heard the man, give 'em up!

That bike has a funny voice.

Huh?

Puar?

Huh?

It is you, I'd recognize that
high pitched squeak anywhere.

Oblong!

Whoa, so you know this guy?

Yes.

He's Oblong, you know,
the meanie I told you about

who picked on me at shape
shifting school. That's him!

You were the
teacher's pet, literally!

And you were a no-good perv!

You transformed into lingerie and
hid in our teacher's underwear drawer.

It would have worked, too, if
it weren't for your blabbering!

Bad, bad piggy!

Alright, the reunion's over. I
was in the middle of a death threat!

Now give me the capsules.

We don't have them.

You were driving a #9 bike
and those always come in sets.

Whoa, let's discuss this!

Don't make this
hard on yourself!

Wolf-fang fist!

You're the man,
Yamcha, way to go!

Power-pole, extend!

What...?

Whoa, did I miss something?

Now, you wanna try it again?

I think I can handle that.

Wolf...fang...
Oh, my gosh, a girl!

Huh?

Yamcha!

Puar.

I'm coming.

Put me in the jet craft, please?

You may have won this
round, little guy, but I will return.

My gosh, did you see that guy's
biceps? Who was he anyway?

Just the guy who
tried to barbecue us!

How scary.

You're telling me you
won't go for the giant robot,

but someone fires a
m*ssile and you go gah-gah.

Oh, the world is
an unfair place.

Thanks for the van, Oblong. That
blast really did break my capsule set.

I think she liked you, Yamcha.

It's too bad you got too
scared to speak again.

I wasn't scared, OK!

Fighting that boy just
through me off guard.

- There she is!
- Gah!!

- Aw...
- Gotcha!

Huh?

I don't see why I have to
look for this dumb orange ball.

You already took my
ride, isn't that enough?

It's community service. You can't
just scare people and get away with it.

Besides, the road
ahead is gonna be tough.

Your transformation
skill may come in handy.

I am not an object to be
used at your liking, lady!

That's it, I'm jumping ship.

Phew... It sure is hot today.

I don't know if I can
sleep in my clothes tonight.

Oh, well, Oblong, I
guess this is goodbye.

On second thought, you're right,
refusing to help you would be a crime!

I found it!

Wow, you guys weren't joking!

Way to go!

Three more and I get my man!

Bulma, look at all
the white things falling.

They make me feel cold.

We call it snow, Goku.

Now get down here and
close that hatch, it's freezing!

I hate to be a front seat driver,
but do we have to go this way?

Would you stop complaining!

The radar says there's
a Dragon Ball up here.

Just trust me and
keep going, OK?

Fine, but if we're stranded
you do not get to eat me!

Number 7.

Red's gonna smile his face off
when he see's how fast I found one.

Sit back and let
the benefits begin.

General! You're not gonna
believe what's coming our way!

What?!

It's about time.
Sign of the civilized.

Why'd we stop? Is
this a potty break?

What's your problem?
You can't sh**t at us!

It seems my men would disagree.

Welcome to Muscle Tower!

Let me guess...

you're here for a Dragon Ball.

Unfortunately, we
have the same idea.

And a lot more g*ns.

Oh, my gosh, I know
who you guys are!

You're the Red Ribbon Army!

Wow, Red Ribbon Army!

As in, tyrant supreme of the
criminal world, Red Ribbon Army?

Why me?

So this is where you
guys are hanging out, is it?

My dad's told me all about your
disgusting terrible no-good organization!

Good! Then you know
our threats are real.

Now! Hand over the Dragon Balls.

I'd rather be pumped full of
lead, you ugly voiced jerk!

Goku, you want some
real fight training?

Well, now's the time!

Yeah, OK.

Bad move.

That-a-way, kid!

OK, that's good!

Now, try to keep it
away from the van!

Power pole extend!

Land in the snow!
Land in the snow!

Amazing, Goku! Don't stop now!

Go get that Dragon Ball!

I'm the toughest in the world!

Wow, you're really strong!

You did well to get here.

But Major Metalitron will
not let you get any farther.

OK.

What? Where did you go?

Look! I jumped really high.

What...?

Paper... Scissors... Rock!

Can't say I was counting
on anyone beating the Major.

I kinda liked him.

Oh, well, that's one of the perks of
this place, the robots are expendable.

Calling on all activated drones,
attack the boy intruder at all costs!

So! Who fights me now!

OK, jets frozen, I'm frozen, I know
you want to catch those guys, but...

Yeah, Puar, you're right,

we're both kinda used
to that desert heat.

We'll just warm up for a little bit.

You know, cuddling
prevents hypothermia.

Look, I'm not scared, I
just don't like to hurt kids.

Hey! Come back!

Android 8! Take care
of this half-pint for me!

Come on! You heard me!

Attack!

Paper, scissors, rock...

You live up to your
design, number 8.

Just keep on squeezing!

I can't.

What?

What are you doing?!

Finish your job
and take his life!

I can't.

Destroying a living
being is cruelty.

I don't want to
do anything cruel.

Want? You don't want!

Who gives a flip about
what you do and do not want!

You're an android k*lling machine!

Cruelty is part of
your resume, idiot!

It's your whole
purpose of existence.

Now finish off that intruder
like you're supposed to!

I can't.

"No"?

So the Red Ribbon Army poured millions
into development for a tree-hugger?

I'm sorry I wasted money.

Alright! Fine.

But if you won't do it, then
you'll have to take his place.

Check your data and you'll
see there's a b*mb inside you.

It's a fail-safe. I press this
button and you go boom!

So what's your pick, android
number 8, your life or his?

I want to live, but not
at the price of cruelty.

Unbelievable.

We'll definitely have to chalk this
one up to an experiment gone bad.

Red will love it.

So, are you ready? I
don't like long goodbyes.

Die!

That should be all of them.

I wanted to thank you.

You saved my existence.

You said k*lling is wrong.

Well, I think letting somebody
die can't be any better.

Our battle was good.

But I don't want to fight
you or anyone, ever again.

Really?

That's weird, why not?

You're good at it.

Tell me, what do
you title yourself?

Title?

Oh! You mean my name?

I'm Goku, what's yours?

I only have my prototype name.

Android number 8.

Kind of a mouthful,

and it doesn't
sound like you either.

Hey! I know! Why
don't we call you Eighter!

Eighter? Hmm...

Yeah! Because it's
easy to remember!

Eighter!

Eighter!

My name is Eighter.

I think I like it!

It was either that
or The Strangler.

Hey...!

It's freezing!

OK, guys! Wrap it up!

Five balls!

I guess he's earned
a little play time.

If you wanna come with me
and my friends, there's room.

Thank you.

But I should stay here, I think.

How come?

I want to destroy Muscle Tower

and take these men to the police
so they can't hurt anyone else.

OK, then I guess it's goodbye.

Goku!

- There's food!
- I'm coming!

Bye!

See ya, Eighter!

You look like a cloud.

This snow is fun.

Here, you have some.

Hey! I wasn't looking.

At the end of the day,
he's just a regular kid.

Sure, a regular kid who conquers
a military base with a stick!

I got you.

Oblong, are you
trying to get us k*lled!

Roadblock! Sea turtle!

Alright, you dumb sea turtle!

Sea turtle? Aren't you
in the wrong geography?

That's right...

Except, I'm a...

I'm a tortoise.

Yamatoid.

Oh, come on, let's not be picky!

It's just that no
one gets that right,

not even the master.

That's why I went on my trip to pick
mushrooms with the other tortoises,

who know what I am.

But I got lost a year ago.

Oh, if you could please
just return me to the sea.

The sea? What's that?

Hold on, you're telling
me you're a tortoise,

not a sea turtle, and yet
you wanna go back to sea!

That doesn't make sense!

I doesn't even care.

We confirmed it, commander.
Muscle Tower is gone.

And the Dragon Ball?

The same.

Compromised!

Blast it! This is a joke.

If I wasn't scared of
being seen, I'd fix it myself.

And stop hovering
over me like a buzzard!

Sorry, sir. I forgot.

Listen, Black, wherever
that ball is, I want it back.

And whoever took
it, I want him in pain!

It will be handled.

It sure better be!

Unbelievable! I didn't know
there were rivers this big!

It's called the ocean, Goku. This
is where all the rivers meet up.

Hold on, tortoise.

Are you sure you can even swim?

You really picked an
awesome place to live in.

I've never been so happy.

I don't know how to thank you.

Hey! Don't forget to
thank Oblong and me too.

I know how you'll
thank us! I know!

You'll take us to an undersea
kingdom of mermaids, right!

What is he taking about?

Thank you, tortoise!

Aw, sh**t.

Actually, I would like
you to wait here for me.

What? You want a
ride somewhere else?

Look! We're not a taxi service!

It's not that at all. I just
need to fetch your reward.

So, the mermaids still a possibility.

How long should we wait?!

I'll return in the morning.

- Bye, tortoise!
- Goodbye now.

I prefer red-heads!

I don't care what he says,
I still think he's a sea turtle.

Please, you can be loud or use
me as a foot pillow, but not both.

Table hard.

Mean. Hello.

Beds are good for sleeping.

That looks like a nice
soft place to put my head.

Well, goodnight, Bulma.

Hey, where have
you put your balls?

Dragon Balls! Oh-my-gosh,
where are they?!

They're gone! They're
gone! They're gone!

What?

Get out of the way!

No, it's OK, they're all here.

Guess we both had
the same bad dream.

Nothing a nice walk
on the beach won't fix.

Come on, guys!

Wow!

Oh! Looky!

It's like a giant
beautifully fried egg yolk.

Look! Something's coming.

- It's still impolite.
- Who cares!

- Just apologize.
- Oh fine!

Hey!

This is our reward?

Please tell me he's the
mermaid queen's foot servant.

Sorry we're late, I had to
do my morning aerobics.

Just call me Turtle Hermit!

Behind my back, I mean.

When I can hear you, well,
then call me Master Roshi.

The disciplined, handsome,
master of martial arts.

Hold on, kid!

Is that the Power
Pole on your back?

Ah, yeah!

It was a present my
grandpa gave me.

Grandpa?

Are you saying your gramps was
Gohan, the world famous fighter?

That's awesome! How'd
you know that, mister?

Because Gohan
used to train under me!

Seriously?

Um...

Excuse me.

- About that reward...?
- A reward?

Ah, yes, I almost forgot.

- Let me get that for you.
- Good one, sister.

Fly to me, Bird of Immortality!

Was that supposed
to do something?

Master, didn't the Bird of
Immortality die last year

of compounded food poisoning?

- Oh, yeah! I'll be...
- An immortal bird, died?!

Makes you think, doesn't it?

And I was gonna have
it grant you eternal life.

Oh, well, I guess you
can have the cloud.

Come, flying Nimbus!

Wow! What is that?!

Alright, settle down, Nimbus.

You belong to these folks now.

Cool! Can we eat it now?

It's not food, you dummy!

It's a flying cloud.

It takes you wherever you want,
faster than a monkey on a jungle vine.

If you can ride it!

What do you mean?

Everything has its catch.

This cloud's made of the cleanest
air, and only the pure can be supported.

What's "pure" mean?

A weightless conscience
and a big open heart,

even the smallest wicked deed or
thought and you'll sink like an anvil.

It must be broken.

Move over, old man.
It's my turn.

Be careful, Bulma, not even the
trained master was pure enough.

Virtue isn't learned, it comes
natural to the gentler sex.

Well, obviously I'm being penalized
by those who feel that beauty is a crime.

I'm feeling good, let me try?

Oh, right! The 24/7 perv
is the purest of us all!

Gives new meaning to
the phrase: When pigs fly.

You're so clever!

Can I try it?

The goes my rep...

How do I make it go forward?

Yeah!

That must feel fantastic!

I could have done it.

You sure were right
about him, turtle.

Thank you, master,
except, ah, I'm a tortoise.

Oh-my-gosh, you've gotta
let me see that, right now!

Oh! Pretty, isn't it?
I found it on the beach.

You're right it's pretty!
It's the 3-star ball!

Goku! Get down here a minute.
Look what I found around Roshi's neck!

Another Dragon Ball!

That makes 6 out of 7!

OK...

I take it these
balls have value?

Bulma says, if we find all 7,

a giant dragon will show up,
and grant her any wish she wants.

Did you hear that, Puar?

Every word.

Good thing we followed
them for your,... "revenge".

Just think of it.
Any wish I want!

This could be
my first big break!

I'm sure a dragon could make
me talk to girls without flipping out

and then I could date...
whoever it is I end up liking.

Yamcha, don't try to fool me,
you see Bulma every time you blink.

So...?

You gonna help me?

OK, I'll give you this, but you
have to give me something.

And what's that?

A peek at your underwear.

You dirty old man!

Well, how about,
just your bottom half?

Nice negotiation.

Master Roshi, this is
not appropriate conduct.

Get off my case, turtle!

You think it's easy living on an
island with nothing but the boob tube?!

Well, if being made into
an embarrassing object

is what it takes to
get my wish, then OK!

I duped them into
thinking this bothers me,

and I get an easy dragon Ball!

Heck, underwear’s not much
different from a bathing suit.

Ta-dah!

Oh, the shame!

OK, that's more than enough.

My pathetic life
is a little brighter.

Number 6 is in the bag!

Hey, Goku! You and
Oblong get ready to leave.

It's time to track down
that final Dragon Ball!

I'll just throw on some clothes
and then we'll be on our way!

I can't believe how
easy this has been!

Whaaat!

My underpants!!

OK, I want every single one
of those mental pictures back!

Someone carry me!

- Are these guys always in danger?
- Yeah, seems so.

Master Roshi, you said you trained my
grandpa to be the fighter he was, right?

Yes... that's correct.

Well, if you were at least as strong as he
was, then why can't you stop these guys?

Goku, don't be ridiculous,

he's just one old man, he
can't beat a fleet of battleships!

Actually, I can.

You're right, it's time
for me to make my stand!

Are you crazy?!

Be sure to watch
me out there, Bulma.

I... look good!

Don't make me bruise
you before the missiles do!

Brace yourselves for
the Kamehameha wave!

Does he say Kamehameha?

Yeah, what is that?

Only the most fearsome attack
in the whole martial arts world.

Supposedly it turns your inward power
into some kind of outward expl*si*n.

I never thought
I'd get to see it.

Ka...

me...

ha...

me...

ha......!

Old bones still have some kick.

Who would've thought a perv like
you would actually have a purpose!

Alright, let's see you
sink my submarines!

Fire, boys!

What are you waiting for?

Lion up! Get 'em all this time!

No can do. I used
up all my oomph.

Goku!

What the...?

Ka...

me...

ha...

me...

ha...!

Darn... it!

Did you see that?

I did a Kamehameha, just
like you, and it was big!

That was fun!

It took me 50 years to
develop that technique,

and this boy
learns it in seconds!

- Goku!
- Watch out, kid!

Would somebody tell
me what's going on?

Nobody move!

Surrender the Dragon Balls!

OK, I don't have
any problem with that.

I strive to create a
relaxing work environment,

and you are not helping!

I'm sorry.

Could it be...?

It is... the cutie boy
who tried to rob us.

He's back!

Hey! How'd you find me?!

Excuse me!

I'm trying to give a
captivating speech!

Boys, you know what to do.

It's morning? Again?

Huh?

Ow...

Why's my head hurt so much?

Hello?

Bulma?

Master Roshi?

That doesn't seem right.

Why would everybody
leave without me?

Huh?

Hmm...

General Blue has
returned, commander.

Great! Just don't stand
next to me when he's in here.

With steps between us,
he should think I'm tall.

Yes, sir, it shouldn't
be a problem.

Commander Red,
I'm honored to see you.

And to mark our first face to
face, I brought you a little gift.

Good work, Blue! Just
toss the bag up here.

I lost my fleet for these.

I think I can manage a few stair
steps to hand them over politely.

- But...
- Honestly, it's no trouble.

OK.

Think of it, sir! That
brings our total to 6.

One more ball, and
the world will be yours!

With me standing at your side.

You really are a helpless
moron, aren't you General Blue?

Huh?

Sure, you got 5.

Whoopee!

But you failed to see the last
one was 20 yards away from you!

Refresh my memory, Black.

What do we do with...

- failure?
- Very bad things, sir.

- Oh, no!
- Ah, yes...

that's right! Guards!!

- Take this idiot away.
- Wait, sir!

How can you do
this? I got you 5.

Oh, and Blue, in the off
chance you ever see me again

- don't go up the stairs!
- Wait! Please!

Contact Violet.

I want to know when
she has the final ball.

Nimbus!

Stop chasing me!

Gotcha!

Nimbus! Come away! Come away!

Oh...

I've got to eat something soon.

Oblong, I think it's time
we used your talents.

I knew it! Humans are all the same!

Stick an apple in my
mouth and roast me in a pan!

Actually, I was hoping
you could morph into a key.

Oh!

That talent.

Way to go, that's a great idea!

We just have to hope that the Red Ribbon
security isn't on a binary key system.

- Hmm.
- You sure are smart.

Huh?

OK, could you not smile at me for a
minute? My knees are going numb.

Aha!

Congratulations, Oblong.

But that's not a
key, it's a crab!

You really suck!

Be quiet, OK! You're
making me tense!

I have a little problem
performing under pressure!

Great! Vegetable!

Fruit, actually.

Here goes!

Bet you can't catch me!

I said, catch me, not sh**t me.

You guys aren't
playing by the rules.

Power Pole, extend!

You better watch out!

Yeah! That's it!

Attention! We have
you surrounded!

Stay on 'em!

Right! Let's boogie!

Ka-me-ha-me-ha...!

Who is this kid?

What on Earth is going on?

What was that?

Some assistance,
Assistant Black.

Chop, chop!

You better tell me where
you put all my friends!

What are you doing?

Turtle? Master Roshi?
Where are they?

Power Pole, extend!

Commander, we should evacuate.

Of course we should.
I'll get the balls.

And I'll handle the rest.

We did it! Yeah...!

Oh-my-gosh! What
happened to the base?!

If I had to guess,

I'd say the Apocalypse.

- Goku!
- Huh?

Hey! Bulma!

You're all OK!

Goku, look! Those must
be the real head honchos!

They've got my Dragon Balls!

Almost there, sir.

I'm sorry, sir.

Blast it!

I'll never be 7 foot 5.

What do you mean?

I mean, without that last
ball, I can't make my wish!

You were going
to wish for height?!

You've mobilized and destroyed
most of the Red Ribbon Army,

just to give yourself
extra inches!

Not inches! Feet!

I woulda been gargantuan!

Commander Red, the goal of this whole
operation was for our forces to rule the world.

Any other wish
would be treasonous!

I can't commit treason, you bum!

I am the Red Ribbon Army!

Commander Red! Get it?
I say what the army wants!

And now the army
wants ME taller than you!

We a big deep voice,
and a size eighteen

shoe...

The commander fell
while trying to escape!

I was the only one left!

The day has dawned
for Commander Black!

Those ancient castles
have everything,

trap doors, rocket ships...

Well, goodbye Dragon Balls.

[??]

A monster...!

A super giant monster!

Bow to your knees!

And hail the new king!

Marvel at the secret ultimate
w*apon of the Red Ribbon Army!

I'm the perfection of
mega engineering! I love it!

Not even Red knew
of it's development.

His puny body didn't
deserve such luxury.

He's insane!

For years I've endured
his humiliating orders.

Yes, sir, this!

Yes, commander, that!

When clearly, it is I
who was destined to rule,

the Black Ribbon Army!

Why does he think
we care about that?

Show some respect!
Old men to the front!

Stop!

You don't know how to fight,
you just know how to hurt people.

Thanks again, Nimbus.

Yeah!

You won't hurt my friends!

Kamehame...ha!

Even your pest att*cks can't
make a dent in this polarized armor!

But that doesn't mean I'm
unimpressed by your powers.

I might even let you
join my new army.

Grandpa said not to help guys like
you unless you change your ways!

Then you're truly a naive child.

And it's time you
were put to bed!

I'm not done yet!

Goku!

And now, the finishing touch!

Don't touch him!

What...? Who's that?

Goku!

No! Don't fire! Abort! Abort!

Please.

You are my friend.
Please open your eyes.

Good thing I had this
turtle shell... I..I mean, tortoise.

Goku!

Your heart's misguided.

Your army is wrong!

I see you're the
infamous android 8,

the flaw!

Your goals destroy life.

This entire Red Ribbon
Army must be dismantled.

We created you.

To wish for that...

is to wish for your own demise!

But... that can be arranged!

By the hands of your brother...

you die!

No! I am not one of you.

Hey, I know, why don't
we call you Eighter?

Eighter?

- Eighter!
- Eighter.

I'm not android 8!

My name is Eighter!

Right!

What happened?

Eighter...

Hi, Goku.

Are you OK?

Y-Yeah.

I'm so glad.

No! Don't go away.

Did I upset you?

Are you so sad that this
pitiful glitch of an android

couldn't survive against
my robot's power?!

Well, swallow it, because
it won't be the last to go!

That's what really happened to you, right
Grandpa, when you said you had to go?

Huh?

Now Eighter's gone too. But he
wasn't ready, he was my friend!

And you took him away!

I'll never let you
do that again!

Never!

Kamehame...

haaa...!

That technique doesn't
work, remember?!

What?!

No!

No!

Noooo!

Eighter...

I found them!

Yeah! Over here!

Eternal Dragon...

Arise!...

Wow, it really works!

You have collected
the seven Dragon Balls.

Any wish within my
powers shall be granted.

But only one!

Wow!

Hurry, Yamcha, your wish!

Ask the dragon to fix
your shyness around girls.

Thanks, Puar, but I
don't think I need it.

I was out for the
perfect guy... maybe...

Then, shall none
among you make a wish?

Mr. Dragon, I've got one.

This is my friend Eighter. My wish
is that you bring him back to life.

Except you take out
the b*mb inside him!

Yeah!

It shall be so.

Goku?
