Features: Long, long ago, seven magical Dragon Balls scattered across the Earth. Legend has it that if they are gathered, the Dragon God will appear and grant a wish. To find the Dragon Balls, Bulma and Goku embarked on a wonderful journey. After experiencing many dangers, the Dragon Balls they finally gathered were stolen by the villain Piccolo. To prevent the Dragon Balls from being used by the villains, 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. During this time, Goku went to Master Roshi to train and then continued his journey to find the Dragon Balls. After further training, Goku 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 World Martial Arts Tournament, Goku finally won the championship. However, five years later, Goku sacrificed himself in a battle against the suddenly appearing Saiyans. Another year passed, and two new Saiyans arrived on Earth.
