To search for the Dragon Balls, Bulma and Goku embarked on an incredible journey. After experiencing many dangers, the Dragon Balls they finally gathered were stolen by the villain Piccolo. To prevent the Dragon Balls from being misused by the villain, Goku and the others made a silly wish for shorts. After the Dragon God grants a wish, it must wait a year before appearing again.

Later, Goku trained further and won the silver medal at the Three-Year-Old World Martial Arts Tournament. Next, the Demon King Piccolo, who sought to rule the world, appeared and engaged in a fierce battle with Goku. In the final showdown, Goku emerged victorious. Three years later, at the Three-Year-Old World Martial Arts Tournament, Goku faced Piccolo in a fateful duel. During the match, Goku was struck by Piccolo's fatal blow! Was everything over like this?
