[edit] Plot

Son Goku needs to find the last Dragonball in order to summon Shen Long and make his wish. The Dragon Radar won't show its location any more, so they journey to Fortuneteller Baba's house. Goku also picks up Upa because he wants to use the Dragonballs to wish his father Bora back to life They can't afford to pay for the location, so they agree to fight her five fighters (they need the practice). The first fighter is Dracula Man (or in the dub Fangs the Vampire) who defeats Kuririn easily but Upa and Puar team up and defeat him by imitating the crucifix. Yamcha goes up next and fights an invisible opponent, Suke-san, which he defeats because of an idea that Kuririn came up with, he pulls off Bulma's shirt and exposes her breasts. Muten Roshi, overwhelmed by this surprising (yet enjoyable) event, literally bleeds a geyser of plasma from his nose. This ends up all over the Invisible Suke-san, making him not quite as invisible as before, thus leaving him open and in clear view of Yamcha. Yamcha subdues the ruined Invisible Man, and the gang move on, to the next opponent. His name: Miira-kun. This ferocious foe defeats Yamcha with ease, but Son Goku is able to overcome the odds and defeat him. Next up is the infamous AkkuMan ("Devil Man") who's terrible Devil Might Beam attack is known to kill all those who are unfortunate enough to be hit by it by amplifying their inner evil to a fatal, explosive level. Goku, proving to be more than a match for the Devil Man, pushes the Devil Man to bring out his deadly technique, much to the dismay of Muten Roshi and Fortune Teller Baba. However, Goku remains unharmed! Son Goku turns out to be pure of heart, through and through, and it doesn't take long for Goku to topple the wicked fighter from Hell. The last opponent is a mysterious man wearing a bunny mask. Master Roshi then realizes that that man is Goku's dead Grandfather Son Gohan. The others are baffled as to why he's just pounding and pounding on Goku. Gohan later comes forth to say that he was trying to make a point to Goku that he needs to train harder and make his tail work for him instead of against him. Baba then locates the last Dragonball which is with Pilaf. Goku catches up with the three in no time. Pilaf then makes a deal with Goku that they will fight and the winner will get all the dragonballs, Pilaf, Mai and Shuu then enter robot battle suits to fight Goku. They know his tail is his weakness is his tail (they don't know it came off in the fight with gohan) so they get behind him(thinking it's still there) but can't see it, Pilaf then calls time to devise a plan to beat him, they think he's just hiding his tail in his pants so Mai grabs Goku and Pilaf uses a flamethrower built into the suit to burn Off his pants to find his tail but all they see is his butt with a hole where his tail was, realizing his tail is gone and they have no chance they take the balls and run, Goku chases them and they fire a missile at him, he then throws it back and they give up the dragonballs and, because he is naked from the waist down Goku takes Shuu's clothes and flies off on his cloud to get Upa and wish his father back to life, once that's done he leaves the now reunited family to return to Baba's

Upon returning to Fortune Teller Baba's place, Muten Roshi assigns him his new training: rough it in vast outside world on foot for new challenges and experiences. Son would have to toughen up out there in the real world on his own this time, without Kinto'Un. Reluctant though he was, Goku charges onward, alone.

Along the way he meets some new people, makes some new friends, and meets Tenshinhan and Chaozu. The two are running a scam, pretending to defeat the monster Inoshi Kacho for lots of money. After he spoils their scam, it's about time for the sign ups for the tournament to start. Because he misses his plane while helping a new friend, Goku ends up swimming the whole way across the world to get to the tournament. But will he arrive in time?
