This life is one big treasure island,

The love of a

Multi-colored dreams
rain down DOSSARI,

Somewhere in this world,
they are glowing.

Let's go on out there
and find them, BO Y,

All the while pounding on
mutants and monsters,

And we'll fly through the day
on our cloud machine as well!

Let's fly, fly, fly, how mysterious,

Charging through the sky,
while we overcome mountains!

Let's try, try, try,
such an adventure,

Our strange little
journey now begins!

Let's get them in hand!
The Dragonballs!

One of the most formidable
gambles in the world.

Let's go chase them down!
The Dragonballs!

Some of the most enjoyable
drama in the world.

This life is one
big treasure island,

It's the truth! Now more
than ever, Adventure!



The fighters who will participate in
the Tenkaichi Tournament have been chosen.



Um, who would Ma-Junior be?

Oh, that's him, right over there.



Ma-Junior?



b*at the crap outta him, Tenshinhan!

Don't ya dare lose!



Let the fight begin!



Are you ready?

Yes.



I'm glad to hear it. In that case,
I'll take care of business now.



"Revenge of Tao Pai Pai the Assassin"



It's strangely quiet, isn't it... ?



What are they doing?



They ain't movin' at all...

It's not that they aren't
moving- They can't move!

Especially so for Tao Pai Pai.

What on earth is going on?!

Neither competitor has
attempted to make a single move!



His stance is perfect... there isn't
a single opening or weak spot in it...



Where did this bastard learn it from... ?!



I'll bring him down in one hit.



It's all over for you the instant an
opening presents itself, Tenshinhan!



Come on! This is a fight! Get fighting!



Ten, can you hear me?! Tenshinhan!

You'll never be able to b*at my brother!

After all, it was Tao Pai Pai,
the very man standing before you,

...who pummeled into you the
fundamentals of the martial arts!



As if a scrawny runt like
you could ever defeat me!

You will never be my equal!



My, oh my! The instant Tao Pai
Pai started to make his move,

...Tenshinhan replied with a
spectacular backhand counterattack!



I see. So it would seem you've
improved a little bit since last time.



This pleases me greatly.

Now I don't have to hold anything back!



Way to go, Tenshinhan!

Damn it!



Please wait, Tao Pai Pai-sama!



What is it? Have you decided
just now to chicken out?

I will forget what you did to Chaozu.

Please stop this!

What? You think you've surpassed
your superior in skill?

Don't make me laugh!

I have become much stronger than you think!

How did you get behind me?!

What impudence! You've become
stronger than me, you say?!

I'm sorry to say this, but I realized
it when you tried to att*ck me just now.



Don't fool around with me!

You don't stand a chance now
that you've ridiculed me!



They're moving so fast I can
hardly tell what's going on!



Can you see them?

Of course.

Tenshinhan-san is amazing.
He's dodging everything.



And he isn't even
breaking a sweat doing it.

Impossible!



Please listen to me!

You and the Crane Hermit were the
ones who taught me how to fight!

I do not wish to defeat you
in a humiliating manner.

Please step down!

Don't be stupid!

Ow!



Then I have no other choice!



Oh? What's this?!



Oh my! Does Tenshinhan plan to
force Tao Pai Pai out of the ring?!

It's all over.



What?!



That's against the rules! The use of
weapons of any type is strictly prohibited!

Tenshinhan wins the fight by default!

You keep out of this!

The match no longer matters to me!

It's time for me to k*ll you, Tenshinhan!

That's it, Tao Pai Pai! k*ll him!
k*ll all the Turtle Hermit nitwits!



I'm going to k*ll you!



I'm going to k*ll you!



So you've lost your dignity as a
martial artist as well, Tao Pai Pai-sama?!

Enough of your impertinence!

So now you're some sort of big sh*t, eh?

You're babbling mere nonsense, at best.

But soon there won't be anything
coming out of that mouth of yours.



S-s-stop this! Take this
fight s-somewhere else!

You're really starting to annoy me!

We'll help you out, Tenshinhan!

What a dirty fighter!

No, don't worry about me.
I'll take care of him by myself.

Die!



Tenshinhan!



You cannot k*ll me with
something like this!



Don't assume you've won
just yet, Tenshinhan!

What more do you think you can do?



Let me introduce you to my secret w*apon!



The Super Dodonpa!

What?!

S- Super Dodonpa?!



This thing is so destructive it makes the
regular Dodonpa look like child's play!

It will send you straight to
Hell in the blink of an eye!

This is terrible! Tenshinhan!
Get out of there this very instant!

Tenshinhan!


I have you locked on!

Now it is pointless for you to
dodge, no matter how fast you move!

The Super Dodonpa will
follow you wherever you go!

Alright then! Do it!

Try it!



No!



Oh no you don't!



Ignorant fool! You don't even
realize you're about to die!

You can regret your mistake
after you've gone to Hell!

This is what you get for mocking me-
Cyborg Tao Pai Pai-sama!



Super Dodonpa!



Why aren't you trying to
dodge?! Have you given up?!



No way...



Impossible!



That's impossible!

You cancelled out the Super
Dodonpa with just a karate yell... ?!



He did it!

Well done, Tenshinhan!

I have to go tell Chaozu!



See? Told ya he wasn't
anything to worry about!

You were the one who tried
to run away, you bastard!

I'm sorry! Let go!

It's only the first match and already
mind-boggling happenings have taken place!

Due to his failure to
comply with tournament rules,

Tao Pai Pai has been disqualified.



Tenshinhan advances to the semifinals!



...Excellent show!
...Way to go, Tenshinhan!



Tenshinhan really is awesome!

He finished off
Tao Pai Pai in just one hit!

W-what do you want?!

He will likely stay
unconscious for several days.

Please take him with you and leave.

And...

...never show your faces around us again.



You lousy ingrate!
I never want to see you again!

Good riddance, you old fuddy-duddy!

Good job!

Thanks.

That karate yell was totally awesome!

I thought you were a goner, but then... !

Drop it.



Let's let him be by himself for a while.



My word... I had no idea he had grown
into a martial artist of that caliber...



There is no longer any
point in me participating.



This doesn't look good.

He's a little too strong, don't you think?

Well, I'm up next!

I'm feeling really
cheerful for some reason!

Oh, that's right! Cutey's your opponent!



Let's have a good fight!



Let's try and get things
back to normal with Match # !

Match # pits Son Goku, the runner-up
from the previous tournaments,

...with "Anonymous", a girl
who impressively fought her
way through the prelims!



Now I get to see your real strength.



As "Anonymous" has preferred
not to divulge her real name,

...we have decided to keep
calling her Anonymous.



Maybe it's just me,
but you always seem mad.

Well it's your own fault!



Just who is this beautiful girl
who seems to get angry at random?



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!
