Son-kun!



Kuririn!

What's the matter, Kuririn?!

Kuririn!

H-he's... dead!



"The Death of Kuririn-
A Terrible Plot!! "



What's the matter, Goku?!

What is...

Hey...

T-this cannot be...



Kuririn-kun...

He's been m*rder*d!

Eh?!



T-this... can't be happening...

A m-monster...

What do you mean?!

A monster flew here...

...and stole a weird ball with stars
on it and the tournament roster...

The Dragon Ball and the roster?

A monster, you say?!

K- Kuririn-san tried his
hardest to stop it, but...

It was a dreadful
monster in any event...



S- Son-kun...



Damn it! Damn it!



Bulma! Do you have
the Dragon Radar?!

Yeah...

W-wait, Goku!

I said wait!

That's an order!

Goku!



There're nearby...

Which one is it?!

This one!



I finally made it...

Huh? What happened, everyone?

Goku...

The fool!

It b*at Kuririn.

Goku has used up all of his
energy in the tournament;

he most likely has
no chance of winning...



Things certainly have taken
a horrible turn of events...

How cruel...

Who could have done this?

H-hey... this scrap paper
was lying on the ground...

Do you think it has something to
do with whoever k*lled Kuririn?



This "demon" symbol inside the
circle, what do you think it is?

The "demon" part
really freaks me out...



W-what did you say?!



Impossible! It couldn't be... !



What is it?

You've seen it before?!



Turtle Hermit-sama.

T-this is... the crest
of Piccolo Daimao...

Piccolo Daimao?!

Who's that? He's got
a pretty stupid name.

I've heard of him before.

He's the legendary Daimao said
to have brought the world to the
deepest depths of terror long ago.

Indeed...



His name is charming, but he was
an unbelievably terrible person...



They swooped down on us as well...

When we were young, the Crane Hermit
and I desperately fought against them...



We had no possible way of contending
with the strength of Piccolo Daimao...

Even with Mutaito-sama's
techniques we couldn't lay
even a single finger on him...

Mutaito-sama?

My master.



Why do you att*ck people?

What exactly is your goal?

I thought I would let them
really realize my strength...

That way young people like you who
dare oppose me would disappear...



As long as I live, I will
not let you do as you want!



Fool!



Dance! Continue to dance until you die!



He's toying with Mutaito-sama
like he's nothing!



This can't be happening!



What's the matter? Done already?

Mutaito-sama!



Because of his
far-above-average vitality...

...and our fervent efforts to
nurse him back to health,

...Mutaito-sama managed to survive.

However...

Mutaito-sama gave us his farewell
without waiting for his wounds to heal,

...and left to go off somewhere,

...leaving behind the words,
"I will return without fail."



Unforgivable!

Unforgivable!

Completely unforgivable!

Unforgivable!



So something like that happened?

I had no idea...

Neither did I...

Crane Hermit-sama never really
spoke to us about such things.

Nope.

I didn't want to remember
what happened back then...

It was then that the Crane guy
set foot down the path of evil...

With an unbelievable level of
strength before his very eyes,

...he must have realized the futility
of what we call righteousness...



So what happened
after your master left?

The blood-lusting Piccolo Daimao
continued to k*ll innocent
people day after day...

There was nothing we humans
could do any longer.

I fled deep into the mountains,
held faith in Mutaito-sama's words,
"I will return without fail,"

...and continued to train
even more, day after day.

Then it happened one day
several years later...

He appeared, didn't he?
Mutaito-sama, that is!



Mutaito-sama!

Just as he promised,
Mutaito-sama returned.

He had trained even more in
order to learn a secret skill
said to be the ultimate technique.



Prepare yourself!

I will no longer allow
you to do as you like!

Such foolishness...



Take this!

What?!



Its name is "Mafuba"...

Now! The Denshi Jar!



R-right!



With this unbelievable technique,

Mutaito-sama magnificently
sealed the Daimao inside the
completely sealed Denshi Jar.



In exchange for his
own life, of course...

And then... ?!

I personally dropped the Denshi
Jar to the very bottom of the sea...



There is no way Piccolo Daimao
could have revived again...

You don't think Crane
Hermit-sama picked it up and...

No, that is unthinkable.

He, too, was well aware of
the horror that was the Daimao.

B-but if the guy who k*lled Kuririn
really was his henchman, then...



Goku's in danger!

Don't die, Goku...



Crap!



Oh yeah! I forgot!

Kinto Un!



There it is!



Dammit, I just can't
seem to catch up!



That somebody so
powerful has revived...

It's dreadful...

Then for now it's best that
Goku doesn't find the monster...

He'll find it. He's
got the radar, ya know...

In any event, I'm especially worried
about what it was that was stolen...

The Dragon Ball and the
Tenkaichi Tournament roster...

What exactly are you talking about?

Radars and something-balls
and what not...



What is he thinking...



I see.



When all balls are gathered
any wish will be granted?



That's how it is.

I of course assume your wish is
world domination, Daimao-sama?



World domination itself is a
simple enough task without
using the power of such balls!

So then your wish would be... ?

What I desire is eternal youth!



Youth...

Young and vivacious flesh
that will not whither away!

If I can acquire that, and that alone,

I can place this world under
my rule for all eternity!

Q-quite promising, indeed...

So, about that...

What?!

I suffered long and hard to locate
the Denshi Jar which sealed you away,

...and then to resurrect
you in this floating base.

And on top of that, the secret
of the Dragon Balls as well...



What is your point?

N-no, it's nothing much, really...

But once you take over the world...

What?

I was hoping you could
give me half of it...



After all, I even told you
about the Tenkaichi Tournament,

where fighters from all
over the world gather...

What?!

Um, if not, then / ...

No, no! / is just fine!

I will think it over...

R-right! Thank you very much!

Incidentally, is Tambourine
still not back yet?

Y-yes?

...Hey!
...Right!



He's fine and heading this way.

It will be very shortly...



"Tenkaichi Tournament Roster"

But why do you want the
Tenkaichi Tournament roster?



What?!



Martial artists...

With some sort of technique
that makes no sense,

...they sealed me
away in this thing...



All martial artists who possess
strength will see the world of death!



L-let's do our best...

That's it! I've figured it out!

What're you suddenly shouting for?!

I figured out the reason why he
took off with the tournament roster.



He fears the "Mafuba"!

He's afraid he might
be sealed away again

by a master who can use the "Mafuba"!

T-that's it!

He can find out who most of
the best martial artists
are by looking at the roster!

So he plans to k*ll all the
martial artists on the roster?!

He most likely does...



I'm getting close now!



Found you!



Will Goku be able to get
revenge on Kuririn's m*rder*r?!



Come along, fantasy,

I enjoy a mystery,

Don't you go hiding your youth!

Wanting to perform the mysterious,

Wanting to pursue the adventure,

Everyone is itching to go!

If you act like an adult and give up,

You'll never unravel the
mystery of the miracle!

Go on and try to live even
more wild and strong!

I'll give you a romance,
I'll give you a romance,

If you will show me
you're true courage.

I'll give you a romance,
I'll give you a romance,

I'll give your pounding heart
a glittery, shining dream!
